After eating ,'Vy phosphorus and pickles and milk Qthey always make us feel funnyj, after wearing our hair long, and reading P1lCA',f1l!lig'f, and Bill Nye, and paying our own club board for the past four months, we have gaily clipped our fountain pen into the inkstand, run our long, shapely fingers through the raven locks that crown our noble brow, a11d, with tears in our eyes, have tried our utmost to compose something funny, but all we could think of were the ghosts we had seen'l and our grandmotherls grave. Really, at times we were in despair clear up to our generous ears. If, in these straits, we have struck at the foibles and eccentricities of professors and students, we crave forgiveness, and humbly acknowledge that we did it on purpose. Of course, we expect to be called vampires and sugar-trustees, and all sorts of undesirable now de jnlgnfzes, and we d0n't doubt but that some gently chided creatures will want their moneys back, with interest and alimony. We have prepared for the worst. Raving friend, even now, as you are searching for your horse-pistol and softly swearing vengeance 011 the BUOU corps and all its family, we are on our Summer vacation tour, enjoying the balmy, 1000 in shade breezes, recruiting our worn cerebral apparatus and reflecting on the brevity of human life. VVe da1'e you to come halfway. If you ever do get halfway, it will be because you can ru11 faster than we can. Wliile thus incidentally thrusting at personal weakness, we have aimed in the main to make the annual a real and complete picture of our college life during the past year. You will find hints and pleasantries and names scattered through these pages that will recall pleasant memories to you twenty years hence. Though most of the volmne is printed in prose, latent poetic genius l1as been disastrously developed. We are sorry. If it must be, however, ,tis better that these pathetic stanzas should be ' 7 inflicted on an editorial board, in some measure prepared for the shock, than that they be unloaded, without warning or cause, upon an unsuspecting public. The book will prove beneficial to the University as an ad.,', to the students as a well-bound, stereotyped memory. However useful it may be, our publishers and engravers were not philanthropic. Financially, the BIJOU would have been impossible if the college organizations had not shared the burden of its cost. To all these organizations, except the Athenian Literary Society, we hereby tender our sincere thanks. We are very grateful, also, to those outside tl1e corps who so kindly and willingly sacrificed their time to produce drawings and compose pleasing portrayals of various phases of our University life. We also take very great pleasure in ack11ow1edging our sincere indebtedness to the Faculty Committee, who so kindly consented to rehearse our copy and strike out the jokes which the professors would not appreciate. Assuring you that we appreciate your excellent judgment in your choice of present reading matter, and that we will remember you i11 our Memorial Day exercises, we remain, kind reader, Yours, without a qualm, a tremor, or a cent, THE EDITORS. ,7 if ff W 1' Mt., -f ii ,. .- Wg Q- 5 is Xe x f' -'ld' 'M I 'e 8 J13oarb of trustees.

Not this object, but a betterjl Whispers every gale and breeze, ll I could tell you with a letter, Says a spirit in the trees, But I dare not even whisper Where this place has once been seen, Dare 11Ot even tell to Vesper, Lest he tell you in a dream. Not in the story of the ages Will the secret e'er be found, Not the wisdom of the sages, Lore in any form profound, Not in inusicls tuneful measures, In comedy-ah, no l beware, Erato, Cupid, and all their pleasures, Gives not the boon we wish to share. 1 I4 W , V I ,. 4 ,- ...Q- hzgg :L .-.itxv-ww . ,Q K ' f f Lx 4 J O . ..

E, T, MXLLERI Then come muses, elves and demons, Disclosing in a passing dream, That my first is verdant herbage, Growing in the copse unseen, My second is a horseman haughty, My third a rustic mountain clan, My fourth the distant, famed Utopia, Most distant from the green Freshman. Of thee, our alma mater, We asked increasing light, WVe begged for rest and leisure, When all was darkest night, And now in glowing sunshine, In this our Senior year, lfVe have them all, Utopia, A true celestial sphere. We have sipped the liquid nectar From tl1y silver cups as bees, WVe have fought and toiled and troubled, While we hoped for coming ease, Many duties left unheeded, ' Wl1icl1 'twere best had they been done Yet we gazed most fondly backward, To a battle fought and won. Battles civil, battles mental, Wrought the brightness of our sky Oft into a murky darkness, But it all has drifted by, And the glowing, beaming sunshine 3 Makes a brighter, brighter sky. Let EEolus, weird and mystic, With his quaint and distant choir Sing our battles in the night-time, Sing with flute, pan-pipe or lyreg But with common human heart-strin s With true 1l1l1SlC of the spheres, We will celebrate our friendships, And our joys of these brief years. As we scale the lofty mountains, And glance o'er the slope we've climbed, Here and there see sparkling fountains Shady glens and fragrant thyme 5 All unknown to us while mounting, We regret and doubtless sigh, But had we tasted of their sweetness We had passed as sweet ones by. So, ye brothers and ye sisters, Of the class of ninety-five, Ye have gained the famed Utopia, For which other classes strive. Uh, my sisters and my brothers, There are battles yet unfought, Burning questions, not by others, But by us to be outwrought. Courage and fidelity Must move us ever on, Until we crown eternity With U Hail, the victor's song. f ,L fri .W AvAxxal.x.1c Cfxxmu.

HE predominant qualities of the present Junior Class are intellect and genius, neither of which, by some Irony of Fate, is manifested in the composition of this history. That ,Q opportunity for literary distinction has been delegated to the writer of the class roll. What- ever, in these reminiscences, may have seemed to partake of tl1e above-mentioned qualities was unintentional and was kindly cutout by the Editor. The purpose of this history is to record facts -tl1at is-to tell the truth, its subject is juniors 3 its object will be discovered in the future--perhaps. Primarily, the old distinctions of sacred and profane history were conscientiously regarded. But by special request of some fellow-classmen, profane history was omitted. In regard to our own position in this classification we preserve a strictly dignified non-committalism. The only exception to this arrangement is the local preacher. The Professor of Biology was unable to classify him, but we have since learned that Professor Grove is an authority in that line, for details, consult him. The gentlemen of the class, who may feel offended because of now mention in these pages, will do well by consulting their vocabulary. Now, dear reader, hoping that you will pardon these prefatory remarks, we proceed to our original task of writing the class history, being confident that, like Gi's Latin Exercises, It will fee! a long- felt want. Victor Hugo dictated to his type-writer, Yesterday is History, To-day is Life 3 To-morrow is Never. The yesterday of our class is not a long one, yet in it are included many things worthy of praise. It was one of God's own beautiful Autumn days, truly, it seems but yesterday, when '96, strong of man- hood, beautiful in WOl113.l1l100d, made her initial bow at the Freshman U Coming-out party. Quiet fas Freshmen should be, but rarely arejl, loyal and true, the fair young debularzle soon began to make her presence felt in all phases of college life. Having gradually attained, she easily maintained her proper position. 22 7 fi 'LOTTA CARTER. TIELEN Coon MARIE: WILLIAMS.

GATI Q W If LI ARK I 'rm L BI ANI Il n The class of '96 entered college ninety strong, but since then many have fallen by the way-side- Shows, Bogi, J. Il. and kindred causes have effected this. But, notwithstanding these little draw- backs, the career of the class has been brilliant. To recount our many accomplishments is an easy task. To refrain from boasting would be difficult. That would require the mental capacity of a Senior and the modesty of a Sophomore. Organized on the 28fl1 of October, 1892, we celebrated the monthly recurrence of our birthday by painfully bruising and pitifully besmirching the Juniors in a game of foot-ball. By way of practice, we had defeated the Seniors the previous Saturday. During tl1e Fall of this, our Freshman year, we received the most fateful problem of our college course. Given a square, cnt with a straight li11e and produce four squares-demonstration to be harmonious with Euclid, and a small pamphlet called 'Social Regula- tions. ' The proble111 remains unsolved, but we have done our best, Angels could do no more. 'lGeneral G, usually tl1e dread of all Sophomores, was easily overcome in the Fall campaign of ,Q3 by our cavalry, under command of Lieut. Allen. At this time, '96's eleven, supposed to play the aggrega- tion of '97, discovered the umpire alone to be its opponent. I:See Vols. III and IV of Profane History.:I With a score 12-10 in favor of '96, our manager, resenting manifest unfairness, withdrew his team out of the gridiron into the fire, so to speak, the game being given to our opponents. Believing that tl1e Junior head had assumed proportions which rendered the mortar-board unfitting, the Sophomore, ever ready to lend a helping hand, proceeded to perform the sad duty of cre1natio11. On Hallow-een, a mortar-board, large, empty and wooden, emblematic of the class, was burned in effigy before the Monnett Campus, while the Junior observed from afar. The 2ISt and 22llCl of February, 1894, are days to be marked with a 'twhite stone. On the evening of the 2ISt, '96 held her Sophomore reception. The young men of the class, numbering forty, assembled in the Monnett Hall parlors, tastefully decorated for the occasion in apple ,gwwz and whz'!1'. -College Transcript, Feb. 24tll. Of course, several of the Faculty honored us with their presence. That the occasion was thoroughly enjoyed is not to be doubted, with such hostesses it would be i111- possible otherwise. Even Professor Austin, so taciturn and conservative, acknowledged that he enjoyed it. But far more, he committed himself by using his phrase, copyrighted for all such occasions, The nicest reception I ever attended. To take a skeptical view of this assertion might result in a severe case of sore eyes. On the following day, the muscular part of the class asserted its supremacy. Surely 24 J. J. RICHARDS.

The remainder of the year, after this signal victory, '96 devoted herself to the common round of college duties. During the foot-ball season of 1894, the team of '96 again distinguished itself. Having defeated the Seniors and Sophomores, '96 lost in turn to the Preps., Freshmen and Sophomores combined. Sub- sequent challenges to the Freshmen Class evoked no reply, '98 being content with hw' victory. Such has been our athletic record, defeated once in foot-ball, never in base-ball. By earnestness in studies and by faithfulness in the class room, '96 has attained a proficiency unrivalled. In scholarships, she has obtained an honor held by no other class in college. '96 advocated the publication of a BIJOU. The result fujudge not lest ye be judged iI is before you, a lasting memorial to the brains and push of '96. When the Tralzscrzff election, that disturber of college society, approached, '96 was equal to the emergency. Not following mischief-working precedents, not willing that her members should, be separated into striving factions, '96 advanced the prime idea of the year. Our record is clean, and when the 5f3io.oo diplomas with the two-cent ribbo11 are handed out, and when the members of '96 have become alumni, when the old class rests in her grave, there .will be inscribed on her mausoleuin, SHE HATII DONE WHAT SHE coULD. To-day, the life and spirit of the class is abreast with the times. All our social duties are rigidly observed. Though I have all knowledge and have not love, I am as nothing, is an axiom exemplified in the present Junior Class. The class of '96 is a talisman for itself, a magnet for others. Feminine additions have been made to the class by desertions from '95 and '97, but none of the original class have deserted CFaculty calls exceptedj. The reason is obvious 5 we are the Leap-year class. As this, the last term of our Junior year, Hits quickly into the past, as SOIIIC of our number cast about for a mantle of Senior dignity-soon to beg as we breathe a sigh of regret for the Elysian year of college life-all but gone, we, glad in the past, hopeful of the future, will do as others have done, and will triumphantly exclaim, The king is dead! long live the king!

Glass of '97. fue'-1:-'jfs EFORE handing downto posterity a history of the class of '97, it will not be inappropriate, -1-.fs wif- - , perhaps, to offer a few remarks on class histories in general. Class histories are generally egregiously misleading. The historian in his mighty efforts to show that in his class are contained whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report, almost invariably stretches the truth beyond the bounds allowed by the inost liberal persons. After reading his history, if we are crednlons enough, we are co11vi11ced tl1at all- merit and all excellence is united in that class, and that their graduation, and their entrance into actual life, will be the first streak ofthe millennial dawn. The ordinary class historian may be called the wielder of the hyperbole. To say that the ordinary class history is not noted for its intimacy with veracity and verecnndity, nor for its hatred of rhodomontade, is to put the truth in a trembling manner. ' It is with much regret that we notice this crowing, boastful tendency of so many class historians. The practice of trying, by fair means or foul, to convince the public that one class is the undoubted superior of all others, is both uncharitable in itself and weakens credence in the whole history. Hence, , 3 2 g xl f ,M 1 - po- '. A-' 1.3 V '-Hr.: . ' '. mf Q I T-.: ' ' .A..'. '-mg. JL..:Lt'.. ':- nz.. I , luuil :-.lii 'L Cosuan. Elnsnmzv. Wmrmav. Cnmvxfman. KE0l'PI,lC. Mmvrz. CHERINGTON.

Cnfuuc. it will be our aim to be strictly veridical, both for the sake of the truth-loving public and as a worthy example to all future historians. From these remarks, you have doubtless learned that we are not here to boast, you know too well the story of our glory. A plain recital of the facts themselves is sufficient to prove, even to the lllOSt skeptical reader, that for industry, scholarship, loyalty, social grace, physical prowess, and brilliancy of intellect, the class of '97 has had few equals, and certainly no superior. But we hesitate to give to history the deeds of the class of '97, from fear that they will undeservedly meet with the truly merited fate of all other class histories. We fear that the unblushing effrontery with which class historians have deceived the credulous public will have such a reactionary effect that they will be unprepared to accept, as unerring truth, the recital of the truly extraordinary achievments of the class of ,97. And we wonder if it would not be better to permit the world to remain in utter ignorance of our deeds, than to expose our history to the suspicions of a much-deceived public. But if we refrain from telling some of the events which have characterized this class, the ghost of truth herself will arise from the tomb, wherein she l1as been buried by other class historians, and will haunt us perpetually, for not making at least one effort to resurrect her. Therefore we will do our best to put this history in the meekest and most unpretentious manner which will be compatible with the magnitude of the facts themselves. That momentous action, known as the organization of this class, took place in the Fall of I893. After this organization, the class appeared with an original constitution and by-laws, a yell, class colors, some class officers, and H great expectations. The infant began to yearn for something by which she could distinguish herself. She did 11ot know exactly for what kind of glory she was best fitted. But she had that springing buoyancy of youth which made her confident that in any and all fields of action the class of '97 would forge to the front. And her confidence was not misplacedg for it was but a short time before it was a universally recognized fact that a new and important factor had entered the college arena with the class of '97. But here, perhaps, a word of warning becomes necessary, for if anyone has, 'by 34 this time, formed the impression that we are going to prove the superiority of this class by filling our history with accounts of ball games, prize-lights, banquets, etc., he is greatly deceived, and it will 11ow be our duty to undeceive him. The class of ,97 can play base-ball, she mu play foot-ball, she nm show her strength in tugs-of-war, she can show to the world the most beautiful banner, she can banquet herself in a manner, for grace and beauty, unexcelled. We could boast of these things, but we will not, for we desire it to be distinctly understood that, while the class duly appreciates all womanly graces and manly strength, we do not settle all our hopes of distinction upon them. And we deeply sympathize with those classes whose historians, in default of better material, are compelled to offer as a class history nothing but word pictures of ball-games and class-rushes. No, indeed! The class of 'QQ' has higher ideals, she has loftier aspirations, and farther-reaching designs. For this class is ambitious, she is extremely, energetically ambitious. But while we thus avow our utter disregard of the advice Fling away ambition,'l we must further say in self-extenuation, that by adopting the poetls later and better admonition, Love thyself las.t,'l we have a happy combination which makes impossible all class scheming, and gives rise to a spirit of class loyalty which does not make it diHicult to get members to take oiiice, so that 'some literally have greatness thrust upon them,' but leads a member to accept office in a self-sacrificing manner, not thinking of personal aggrandizement, but of the certai11 good which will accrue to the class and humanity from his occupancy of oflice. Thus you 'see the ammus which animates the Class of Ninety-seven-a spirit of loyalty, a spirit of progress, an ambitious spirit, which leads her to anticipate, and to await with hope tl1e great reforms, great discoveries, and great advances in intelligence and civil- ization which will surely follow the advent of the class of ,97 into the busy world. 35 9f5C6l'5 of '9S.

HE Beta Theta Pi Fraternity was founded at Miami University, Oxford, O., July 4, 1839, by John Reily Knox and Samuel Taylor Marshall. From the first, conservatism in extension was the central motive of its founders-the number of chapters being limited only to first- class colleges. With this idea in view, the fraternity spread North, South, East and West, becom- ing the successful rival of older and longer established Greek letter societies. Twice in its history has the fraternity united itself with other college fraternities-in 1879, with Alpha Sigma Chi, and in 1890, with tl1e Mystical Seven. The executive powers of the fraternity are vested in a Board of Directors, three of whom are elected each year, the legislative powers being vested ill the annual conventions which con- sist of delegates from all active chapters. The fifth edition of the catalogue has just come from the press and is complete in every detail. The fraternity journal, the Bela Them Pi, is issued 1no11thly. The fraternity owns a club-house at Wooglin-on-Chautauqua, where the annual conventions are held. May 23, 1895, a Founders' Dinner was given in Cincinnati in honor of Knox and Marshall, andion the next day, a pilgrimage to Miami University. This was the Iirst of the kind ever held and drew noted alumni from all sections of the country. Theta Chapter, the pioneer chapter of the Ohio Wesleyan, was founded in 1853, and from that time it has had a prosperous existence. She is proud of her honored list of loyal alumni, among whom are Rev. F. W. Gunsaulus, D. D., Rev. John R. Shannon, Ph. D., Prof. H. M. Perkins, A. M., Ex-Gov. S. H. Elbert, Dr. Thad A. Reaniy, Hon. john M. Pattison, Hon. John C. Entrekin, Rev. Arthur M. Edwards, D. D., and many others. Theta was never stronger than she is to-day, and maintains friendly relations with all l1er rivals. 46 1RoII of Gb8Dt6I'5. Eistrict I. Chief, VVM. B. DOYLE, Cambridge, Mass. Eta--Harvard.

YVILSON Sigma Chi. gg gQ:+j,'ga HE Sigma Chi Fraternity was founded at Miami University, at Oxford, Ohio, on june 20, I855, by Isaac M. jordan, Ben P. Runkle, James P. Caldwell, Frank H. Scoby, Daniel W. Cooper, Thomas C. Bell and William L. Lockwood. It was a great undertaking for these seven men. I Many obstacles were plainly discernible in the horizon of the fraternity world. Eighteen rivals had already occupied the field with one hundred and fifty chapters. In the face of such odds it was an act of courage to organize a new and independent fraternity. But the confidence of the founders of Sigma Chi was based on a belief that the ideal of fraternity which they sought was but imperfectly re- alized by the organizations which then existed. The establishment of Sigma Chi was a protest against pretense. A plea for cougeniality and genuine friendship, as tl1e only natural basis of association in a college brotherhood. Sigma Chi was not then known, and has not since been known as a distinctively literary, or scholarly, or athletic, or political, or social organization,.but her honors have been won equally in all these as well as in all others, and though successful in all these, the chief end sought has been fraternity-the fraternity of mutual helpfulness. When the storm of civil war broke over the land and scattered the college boys of both contending sections, ten chapters answered to the roll call of the frater- nity. During the struggle which followed, several of the chapters were compelled to disbaud, yet the fraternity was kept on a good working basis, and one chapter was formed composed of the alumni of the northern and southern army. This chapter held its first meeting between the lines, and there, in an old log cabin, by the light of one wretched candle, friendships were revived and men of both armies were initiated, whom the fraternity has ever been proud to recognize. Sigma Chi was in a prosperous condi-- tion with lifty active chapters at our last Grand Chapter. To-day strong in the strength of young, vigor- ous and successful manhood, claiming nothing but the recognition of its actual achievements, it challenges comparison with any rival. On Christmas eve of the same year of the founding of the fraternity, Gamma Chapter was established at the O. W. U. The chapter was in a flourishing condition until 1884, when the entire chapter was made to suffer the sins of two of its members. In 1887, it was re-established and has won back its old position in fraternity circles. The chapter has made a good record, and has been quite successful. Enjoying the respect and good 'wishes of all its rivals, Gamma congratulates herself upon her prestige at O. W. U. - - , , 52 s Alpha-Miami University. Gamma-Ohio Wesleyaii University.

HE birthplace of the Phi Delta Theta Fraternity was at old Miami University, Oxford, Ohio, that Mother of Fraternitiesf' The founders, Robert Morrison, John M. Wilsoli, R. T. Drake, J. W. Lindley, Ardivan W. Rogers, and Andrew W. Roberts, established the first chapter, Ohio Alpha, on December 26, 1848. In less than fifty years, Phi Delta Theta has meritoriously won the name of being The National Fraternity, by entering all the leading institutions from Maine to California and from Minnesota to Texas. For the first twenty years of its existence, the fraternity was Western, but in 1869, the sword and shield of Phi Delta Theta made an inroad into the South and soon conquered the Southern institutions. The establishment of the chapter at Cornell opened the H East- ern campaign,and to-day the National fraternity modestly boasts of twenty-seven alumni chapters in as many large cities throughout the United States, and six provinces of sixty-nine college chapters. The total membership of the fraternity on April 1, 1895, was over 8,ooo, of whom 1,ooo are in active college attendance. lchapters occupy chapter houses and most of the other chapters are raising funds for a similar purpose. The General Fraternity has recently issued the sixth edition of the catalogue and is also successfully ending the nineteenth volume of The Scroll, the oliicial journal of the fraternity. Countless members of Phi Delta Theta have achieved fame and distinction in the various walks 'of life. They have not been adopted but reared, which is all the more reason why Phi Delta Theta is proud of them. The long list is headed by Benjamin Harrison, Ex-President of the United States, A. E. Steven- son, Vice-President of the United States 3 John W. Foster, Ex-Secretary of State 5 United States Senators W. F. Vilas, J. C. S. Blackburn, J. B. Allen, and other gentlemen equally distinguished in state and national public life. , 6 5 Phi Delta Theta first established a chapter in the Ohio Wesleyan University, February 25, 1860, with three charter members, A. P. Collins, D. Humphreys and C. H. Gray. Its existence was 11Ot the most prosperous at all times, owing in a great part to the feeling of opposition against fraternities prevalent in the University, and in 1876 the charter was given up. Three years later, in 1879, the charter was again issued to Ohio Beta, the new founders being T. H. McConica, Scott Bonham, and W. P. Fulton, who gave the chapter a splendid impetus which it has kept during all these years. Ohio Beta proudly numbers among her alumni members men of distinction in all the professions and trades, arts and sciences. She enjoys much har1nony and prosperity, the real fruits of genuine fraternity. llbbi Delta Gbeta. FOUNIJED AT MIAMI UNIvEusI'rv, OHIO, 1848. 1Roll of Gbapters. Zllpba llbrovtnce.

COLORS-Pzizk and La21e11n'c1'. N February 19, 1852, two friends at old Washington and Jefferson, in order to cement the ties that mutual sympathy, during the raging of an epidemic, had woven, founded the Phi Kappa Psi Fraternity. These two men--judge C. P. T. Moore, of the Supreme Court of West A Virginia, and Dr. W. H. Letterman, Surgeon General of the U. S. Army-were representative men of their college. The fraternity early adopted a policy of conservatism, and has aimed to enter only those schools that are of the highest rank. As a result, very few of the chapters that have been established have become inactive. A few strong chapters have been placed in the South and West, though, for the most part, the chapters are in the strongest schools of the North and East. The wearers of the shield now number about 6,3oo. There are thirty-seven active chapters and thirteen alumni associations, all of which are thrifty. The official organ of the fraternity is the Shzkld, published by G. Fred Rush, at Chicago. The last Grand Arch Council met at the Hotel Savoy, in New York, in 1894, and tl1e next will be held in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1896. The District Conventions are held on years alternating with the Grand Arch Council. The Ohio Alpha Chapter was established in 1861 by Chas. W. Breyfogle, Luther M. Buchwalter, and John W. Peters, and now has a membership of about 300. Six chapters have been established by her, all of which have had enviable histories. She has sent out men w11o have ornamented and honored gubernatorial and congressional seats, and have ably filled proud positions on the bench, the lecture platform, in the business world, and in college faculty. Of tl1e active members, six will devote their genius to the law, three to medicine, two to journalism, four to business or the ministry, all are in love, and some seriously contemplating marriage.

Charles Wesley Breyfogle, M,D., the founder of Ohio Alpha, of California Alpha, and a man high in the councils of the Phi Kappa Psi Fraternity, died at his home in San jose, Cal., February 26, 1895. Dr. Breyfogle was a man whose sterling qualities made him one of the first citizens of every community in which he lived. He occupied high positions in his profession and in the commonwealth. He was an honor to his alma 111a.ter and his fraternity. The highest tribute we can pay to l1is memory is to say that he was a true man in Phi Kappa Psi. 63 Eelta Eau Delta. CHAPTER MU.

Here, on june 1st, I86O, Delta Tau Delta Fraternity first entered the mysteries of I-Iellenism. This parent chapter soon W 't ' B' established several other chapters, and then, in the confusion incident to the beginning of civil war, the attendance at the college having seriously declined, the Bethany Chapter was discontinued. Its parental authority was transferred to tl1e chapter at Washington and jefferson. This chapter preserved the early traditions of the fraternity, and for many years was the inspiration of the General Fraternity. Chapters are now distributed in all parts of the country, from Boston to Leland Stanford, and from St. Paul, Minn., to New Orleans. The four Grand Divisions of the South, West, North and East include many of the leading colleges of the land. Alumni Associations have also been established in 111any of tl1e large cities, the most recent being tl1e New England Association, located at Boston, Mass. The membership of the fraternity now numbers nearly five thousand, embracing many honored alumni. At the siege of Quebec, Gen. Wolfis said to have read, one morning, the newly produced Gray's Elegy to his soldiers, and then remarked, 'fl would rather be the author of that poem than take Quebecfl So Delta Tau is proud to own the author of Farm Ballads, Will Carleton, as a brother Delta. The policy of the fraternity has been conservative, both in the choice of men and in the establishing of new chapters. The aim has been to develop among the wearers of the Purple, White and Gold, manly independence and true nobility of character. Omicron of Delta Tau Delta was organized at the Ohio Wesleyan University in the Fall of 1866, with five charter members. In 1874, the chapter wasdiscon- tinued, but, in 1879, was re-established as Chapter Mu, through the efforts of Prof. J. H. Grove. Since then, the chapter has enjoyed a fair degree ot prosperity. Important duties have frequently been entrusted to the chapter by the General Fraternity. The standing of Chapter Mu's men in school, of her alumni in the active pursuits of life, and her past record must speak for themselves. Fidelity to tl1e principles and spirit of Delta Tau Delta shall ever be tl1e watchword of the boys of Mu. The chapter rejoices at the apparent good-will and unity manifest between the various fraternities of the University. 66 1Roll of GDSDTBYB. Lambda-Vanderbilt University.

'Ya' llbbi Gamma Delta. pq ' LPHA Chapter of Phi Gamma Delta was founded at Jefferson College, in May, 1848. Beta Chapter was immediately organized at Washington College, but upon the union of the two colleges into Washington and Jelferson College, the chapters were united into the present Alpha Chapter. The fraternity grew rapidly and strongly, especially extending itself in the leading southern colleges. The war destroyed most of these southern chapters. Since the war, the growth of tl1e fraternity has bee11 more general and comprehensive-and not at all sectional. Phi Gamma Delta now numbers forty-six strong college chapters, from New York City to San Francisco, and from Wisconsin to Carolina and Tennessee, and ten active alunmi chapters. The organ of the fraternity is the Phi Gamma Delta Quarterly, published for the fraternity by Frederic C. Howe, Cleveland, O. Theta Deuteron Chapter has just rounded out its first quarter century. It was founded on the I8lIl1 of October, 1869. The charter members were: Jos. Corn, S. G. Cosgrove, R. A. Ketner, S. E. Reynolds, J. M. Vernon and Samuel Vestal. The following year, stringent anti-fraternity rules were made by the University, which nearly wiped out the fraternities. Though some fell, Theta Deuteron survived, and since 1870 has been prosperous. The chapter roll now shows 177 members. ' . To go into a detailed account of our chapter life is hardly fitting to the occasion. Associations with Denison, O. S. U., Wittenberg and Wooster chapters make Theta Deuteron fraternity life especially pleasant. The Forty-seventh Annual Convention of Phi Gamma Delta will be held at Easton, Penn., Nov. 26th, 27tl1 and 28th, 1895, under the auspices of Sigma Deuteron and Beta Chi Chapters. 70 'IROU of GDHDICYS.

The fraternity as it exists to-day is tl1e result of the union of three distinct orders, the oldest of which, the Princeton order, traces its origin back to a society formed in 1824, at Princeton,which, after a short exist- e11ce, was allowed to die out. This society was reorganized in 1854, and, with several material changes, was transformed into the fraternity of Chi Phi, the original name being preserved. After the es- tablishment of another chapter at Franklin and Marshall College, the Princeton Chapter was abandoned in 1859, but to the order bearing its name a third chapter was added at Pennsylvania College. In 1867, a union took place with the order founded in 1860, at Hobart College, Geneva, N. Y.,which had at the time tive active chapters. The Southern order was founded in 1858, at the University of North Carolina, and grew rapidly, being almost annihilated, however, by the war, at the conclusion of which it was revived, old chapters being reorganized and several new ones established. In 1874, the Northern alld Southern orders united. So complete were these unions, that the present fraternity is as firmly a unit as though there had been but one parent stalk, all traces of the former separate identity of the orders having dis- appeared. There are at present twenty-one active chapters, located principally i11 tl1e East and South where tl1e strength of the fraternity lies. The order is conservative, and new chapters are established slowly, however, having been added in the last few years. The headquarters of the Grand Lodge, in which the government of tl1e general fraternity is vested, is at New York, where also is published the ollicial organ, the Chi Plzz' Ckakell. The colors of the fraternity are scarlet and blue, and its badge a monogram of the Greek letters composing the name, jeweled i11 the colors. Among the prominent alumni of the fraternity are the late Henry W. Grady, Judges Emory Spear, William Vincent, of the Su- preme Court of Georgia and Montana, Gen. Lucien H. Warren, Hon. William S. Stenger, Hon. T. H. Dubbs. 74 Gbi llbbi. FOUNDRD AT PR1Nc1f:'roN, 1824. 1Roll of GDHDHIYS. Alpha-University of Virginia. Beta-Mass. Institute of Technology. Gamma-Emory College. Delta-Rutgers.

N the city of Richmond,Va., September 11, 1865, the Alpha Tau Omega Fraternity was born. The founders were Rev. Otis A. Glazebrook, D.D., Alfred Marshall and Judge Erskine M. Ross. These three gentlemen were students at tl1e Virginia Military Institute. The fraternity, coming ' into existence at the close of the nation's turmoil, was compelled for a short time to confine its extension to the Sunny South Landf' But only the very best colleges were entered. It was not long, however, before its projectors saw their opportunity to push national extension. Soon the foremost col- leges i11 the North, East and West were entered, and to-day the banners of Alpha Tau Omega Hoat fro111 forty-11ine institutions of learning scattered throughout twenty States. The membership of the fraternity is now six thousand two hundred and fifty. The policy regard- ing fraternity extension has been conservative. Among the latest additions to tl1e chapter roll are the following: Brown University, University of Illinois, and Austin College, Texas. - The government of Alpha Tau Omega is vested in its biennial Congress and the High Council appointed by this body. The last Congress was held at Washington, D. C., in December, 1894, and was attended by over one hundred delegates. The next Congress will be held i11 Cleveland, Ohio. A quar- terly magazine, called The Palm, is published at Chicago in the interests of the fraternity. Among the noted alumni of Alpha Ta11 Omega a1'e tl1e following: Walter H. Page, editor of the Formfzf Bishop john H. Vincent, LL. D., of the Methodist Episcopal Church, Hon. Samuel Waller, Vice- President of the World's Columbian Exposition 5 Judge Hayes, of Baltimore, and Hon. Clinton R. Breckenridge, Minister Plenipotentiary to Russia. On the night of October the sixth, 1887, Ohio Beta Eta Chapter made her debut into the Greek world of the O. W. U. Harry L. Phillips was its honored founder. With himself he associated the following as charter members: Basil L. S111ith, A. L. Huff- man, R. L. Richards and F. Asbury Fate. ' From its foundation, Ohio Beta Eta has secured her share of honors from both the general and state organizations of Alpha Tau Omega. At present, she holds tl1e Presidency of tl1e Ohio State Association. Ohio Beta Eta steadfastly holds her position in the van of O. W. U. panhellenism, and with malice toward 11one, but with charity for all,'l she extends the right hand of greeting and fellowship to her sister fraternities in the Ohio Wesleyan University. 79 Georgia Alpha Beta-University of Georgia.

Although established in the South, it was projected as a national organization, and its 31'-f gif-1 ' i ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' for its future growth and expansion. 8 . N VX present extent and status testifies to the wisdom of its founders in providing at its inception While its policy 1135 been strictly conservative, Sigma Alpha Epsilon has always been ready to enter institutions that were, or promised to be, of the highest rank. The result is its justification. The fraternity now has strong, active chapters in fifty-six Q56Q of the best institutions of learning in the country. The executive and legislative powers of the fraternity are vested in a Supreme Council of six members, and the Biennial Conventions composed of delegates from all active chapters. The fraternity has two publications. Its oflicial organ, the Record, issued quarterly, and Phz'Aq5ha, a secret publication. The local chapter was established in 1888, with nine charter members. Since its founding, Ohio Delta has taken no backward step, endeavoring to incorporate into itself the spirit of brotherhood and altruism of the National organization, it has proven brotherhood a reality. Its outward success is mani- fest. The high rank of the chapter in the general fraternity is evidenced by the fact that one of 0hio Delta's men, Albert M. Austin, '94, is now active Supreme Head of the National fraternity. 34 .yrcw 5191118 HIDIJR IEDBIIOTI. FOUNDEIJ IN 1856. Massachusetts Beta Upsilon-Boston University. Massachusetts Iota Tau--Mass.

Previous to this time there had existed a society called the Social Union, but a division arose between those wishing a social organiza- tion and those desiring a purely literary society. The latter, Miss Mary Le Duc, Mrs. Irwin- La Croix, Mrs. Wilson-Crook, Mrs. Berry-Buchwalter, Mrs. Delia Eaton, Miss Ella Boynton and Miss Sallie Cobean, held their first meeting in a recitation room, meagerly furnished with benches 94 1 xl-R ..-,.,--W.g.. ,gy,.. and lighted by candles. Thinking the name Social Union inappropriate, they adopted the name Clionian, from Clio-Muse of History-and took as their motto Lulu, umhr LzZ'lz!,', perhaps unconsciously sug- gested by tl1e tallow ca11dles. Their first emblem was a silver triangle engraved with the motto. Later a scroll of white enamel and gold, bearing the name Clionian, was adopted. This is the badge at the present time. Their first hall was a recitation room on the second floor of a dilapidated frame building, known as the Annex. The society was brought into prominence by a public entertainment given by the members. This was held in the chapel. The members living in town borrowed a flag and a large pic- ture of George Washington and his wife. With these they covered 111ost of the space back of the platform. The motto was suspended in front of the platform by a rope entwined with cedar, while wreaths and bunches of tl1e green composed the rest of the decoration. The room was lighted with their individual lamps. They depended more on the intellectual ability of their members than on the attractiveness of the hall. After the first public entertainment the interest grew and their numbers increased. Before this time the society had been so small that the members were necessarily on duty every two weeks. Publics then became more frequent and society more prosperous. When Monnett Hall was built, provision was made for halls for the literary societies. The new hall was partially fur- nished in 1865, and was dedicated by Bishop Thompsonthe following commencement. Since that time so many improvements have been made that we now have every reason to be proud of our beautiful hall. This year we have added new chandeliers and a grand piano. Our alumnm are found in the reahns of literature, philosophy, music and art. Lucy Webb Hayes, Mrs. Gov. Foraker, Mrs. Mary B. Ingham, Miss Clara Nelson, Mrs. Gov. Hamilton, and Mrs. Bishop Thompson, are among the number. The society is not only helping to improve the minds of her mem- bers, but is also educating a Chinese girl named Clio. Judging from our record in the past, and the loyalty and enthusiasm of the present members, we have great hope for the future. 97 Preszkierzr .... Vzke-P1'esz2z'e1zz'. . . Recordzlzg ,Scribe .

You have reason to rejoice, for AtllClliCU1Il,S record 111 great deeds, as well as in small, is worthy of highest commendation. Write, my daughter, that when the members of the class of ,Q4 had given their orations, and those who excelled were invited to appear before the entire body of students, to only one young woman 98 1, 3 K- k ' 2. mx S ' 'K In , -X .x,, . .3 , N . VL. Q Y ,f ' w. vw U, A 'iff - Qu. , . f,Q - 4 Liga, V V ' -Home , W - 'nnlf was this honor given, and she wore the star and crescent. When the Commencement speakers were chosen for the same year, three of the four youug wo111en who obtained the honored rank were daughters of Athene. Nor was this all. The Alma Mater knowing of the honors won by the young women of ,Q4, and knowing also the superior ability, engaged the services of two of them as instructors in the institution for the following year. Athenaeum class of ,QS now holds aloft the standard, and has added to the western Parthenon another trophy of literary conflict. The only young woman competitor i11 the oratorical contest of ,94, a daughter of Athene, took second rank. U Two members of this class varied the sameness of Senior rhetoricals by giving a spirited debate. This was so well done that they, like their sister of ,Q4, were invited to appear before the Faculty and students at the chapel exercises. The next week another of Atl1C1lZEl1llliS prominent members gave her oration before the same assembly. Still, 1ny daughter, this is not all. My heart swells with pride as I recall these achievements, but would that you could describe the feeling that fills my breast, when from lofty height I look the wide world over and see my daughters scattered here and there. The gleaming star and shining crescent is worn by faithful workers in foreign lands, by patient laborers in the slums of our large cities, who are trying to lift the poor and destitute to a higher plane of living. The outward symbol of allegiance to me is seen on many who are public speakers, but best of all upon those who, while doing no conspicuous public work, are making the world brighter and better because of their cheerful, noble lives. U When Ate would trouble me by saying 'Nations rise and fall. The order of nature is birth, de- velopment, death. Thus will it be with your mortal daughters. Their glory will fade. Athenaeum can- not always maintain her high standardf Then turn I my eyes toward the place where weekly my daughters gather. When I see their pure purpose, high aspiration, and conscientious performance of IOO duty, I say Athenzeumfs glory shall not fade. Those wl1o are now putting into practice the instrnctirn and culture received from noble men and women will be competent to fill thc responsible positions that will soon be left vacantf' Athene paused, and after a moment's silence added, My daughters have met n1y approval as they have endeavored to develop the powers given to them 3 but as I am the goddess of Wisdom, higher than mere earthly honor, higher than mere intellectual attainment,I place the possession of wisdom-the wisdom that is from above and is pure. As they have sought that wisdom, I have especially guarded and shielded them. As for the future, I shall protect llllllll at last from my right hand Nike will place upon their brows the crown of victory. 'lln flbcmoriam.

Here, lifting high its snowy peaks, clearly outlined against the blue sky, is Mt. 'Wifi Parnassus, the l1o1ue of the gods. O11 the slope of this famous mountain is re11owned Delphi, where once the Pythoness uttered her famous oracles. I11 wandering through this mystic city, in a garden now neglected, one comes suddenly on a large rock, from whose side gushes a stream of water so pure and sparkling that one ceases to wonder at its marvelous powers. In the Oldell time, this stream, flowing through laurel and oriental vines, poured itself into a dark marble basin, hung with clusters of ivy. This was the celebrated fount of Castalia, of which poets of all ages have sung, and of which the Romans talked and wondered, and which they found a source of great inspiration. This was thefountain in whose purifying waters so many were cleansed, and from whose prophetic murmurings all those who I02 -W. EQ03'-gi: f -45555 MA- '1vN.3,-g,ff 1 ..,,, drank of its waters gained desired knowledge. Such was the fountain of old, but we who have more recently tasted its sweet waters have found them fully as pure, delightful and satisfying as did the people of classic antiquity. What great deeds Castalia shall achieve in the future we may not wholly tell. It is given us only to know of the past, but has it not been said that its waters are prophetic? In fancy, methinks I stand at the fountain at the foot of Mt. Parnassus, just as the sun is dropping behind its peaks. As I stoop over the edge of the stream to drink of its pure dew, 111y mind gradually fills with the low murmurings, and as I stoop lower, and look more thoughtfully into the mirrored surface, I see a long procession of Castalia's daughters passing before ine, all singing the praises of their loved fountain. Tl1e faces are fair and beautiful to seeg they are bright and happy, for they bow and worship at this shrine of wisdom. As the procession moves on, I see all strange, new faces, that I shall not know until we are all met together, a happy band. These will come to the fountain of knowledge, and will be refreshed. When pursued by care,they will find in it a refuge and a resting place, as did the Uylllpll Castalia of old.

HE Ohio Wesleyan University was ope11ed for tl1e reception of students on November 13th, 1844. Two months later, ou Friday evening, January 17th, 1845, Zetagathea, the first literary society, i-'H :. , , , , , , was organized. A committee was appointed to draft a constitution, which was duly reported and adopted the following evening, when the first ofhcers were elected. This organization continued, with irregular meetings and no material advancement, until tl1e close of that year of school, June ZISt. Upon the reopening of college in the following September, however, it was deemed advisable to entirely reorganize the society. The constitution was revised, a room for meetings was procured in old Elliott Hall, a library was founded, and many new members were initiated. The first election under the new Vlfglklld' was held October 4tl1, 1845. After several attempts had been made toward procuring a charter from the State of Ohio, finally, on March 24tl1, 1851, the Legislature granted us a charter, by means of which our society became vested with the rights and powers of a body corporate, privileges 106 1 possessed by 110 other literary society in the University u11til last year. On September 27th, ISSO, the society held its first meeting in the hall formerly occupied by the Allen Missionary Lyceu111. Zetagathea fitted this roou1 at a cost of 3200, but after five years' occupancy, it was aba11do11ed for 1110112 elegant quarters in the new library building, wl1icl1 was completed i11 1855. The roo111 was the one occupied at present by tl1e University Lyceum. After all outlay for furnishings of 1QI,OOO, the Zetagatheans held their first meeting in the new home, 011 May 9th, 1856. This hall continued to be tl1e home of our society until tl1e Spring term of 1894, when we entered our present handsome hall. The library, which was early founded by tl1e society, grew to enormous proportions, there being lleafly 5,000 VOll1111ES when tl1e society ceded it to tl1e university. The center roo111 011 tl1e first floor of the old library building, afterward for many years occupied by Athens, was used as a library room by the Zetagathean and Chresto111athea11 Societies subsequent to 1856. The founders of the society were jediah Allen, James H. Baker, William H. Black, the late Homer M. Carper, L. J. Critchfield, Wm. D. Godman, Amos Harris, Geo. Howard, Prof. Robert W. McFarland, joseph S. Root, James Stilling, Rev. J. C. White, and William R. White. The charter was made out to Geo. Carpenter, H. F. Green, J. H. Herron, H. B. Sheldon and James Sedberry, their associates and successors. Many distinguished 111611 have served 011 its Board of Trustees, which has beell elected from time to time. The present board consists of Prof. Stevenson, Prof. Whitlock, and K. A. Miller. The society in for111er years had a custom of publishing a catalogue, which gave a history of its rise and progress, the completed list of its members, both ordinary and honorary, a11d a list of the graduate members, with their titles. The last catalogue of this kind published was submitted to the society ill june, 1868. It gives the total list of members, corrected up to that date: Ordinary members . . . . . . . 639 Graduate members . . 147 Honorary members . . 114 Total . . . .... . . 900 108 Since that time, the society has enrolled SOIIIE 960 members, many of wl1on1 l1ave been graduated from the University with honors. The C11StO111 of granting honorary membership has been little exercised by the society during the last twenty-Five years, such memberships being granted by courtesy of the society to only the most distinguished individuals. Taking these things into consideration, this society has the honor, this evening, after fifty years of the most thrifty experience, of enumerating on her rolls no less than I,8OO members. It may be interesting to know who some of our distinguished honorary members have been. Among the earlier honorary members of the society are Hon. Salmon P. Chase, of Ohio, Hon. Henry Clay, of Kentucky, Hon. Cassius M. Clay, of Kentucky, ex-Gov. William Dennison, of Ohio, Hon. John C. Fremont, of California, Horace Greeley, of New York, Hannibal Hamlin, of Maine, Oliver W. Holmes, of Massachusetts, Washington Irving, of New York, and many others equally as eminent and distin- guished, including our own President, Dr. james W. Bashford. No less distinguished are some of the ordinary members who proudly claim membership in tl1e Zetagathean Society. Some have attained the highest eminence in professions, business allfl industrial pursuits. Among the members of our own faculty, we are proud to claim the great Perkins, the distin- guished Nelson, the aesthetic Stevenson, the classical Whitlock, the linguistic Davies, and the generous Hartupee. While we contemplate Zeta's ever-widening influence and intellectual achievements, we are not umnindful of the struggles of the thirteen founders of the society, andvof the enduring efforts and encouragements of her members since that early day. And while we take this opportunity to thank our alumni for their material aid in the past, and whatever they may contribute in the future for the improve- ment of our home, we beg also to assure them that Zetagatheans are indeed, as our 11an1e indicates, scckzlzg good, and endeavoring to be, rather than to seemf' 109 wfficera for jfirst 1balf Spring Germ, 1895. 1Jl'!'.YZIl,L'7ll . . . ......... . . ..... . . . . . . . .H.

A ' AA'f1::'f1f. j ij do not -wish to eulogize, although Chrestomathea deserves, but our desire is merely to briefly mention a few facts in regard to the origin and progress of a society which, though L ,,,,, ,,.,,., old in years, has lost none of its pristine vigor, and still retains its time-honored position. On the night of September 17, 1846, in the basement of Elliot Hall, six students wl1o had withdrawn from Zetogathea, then in its infancy, organized the Chrestomathean Literary Society. The infant was christened by Prof. H. M. johnson, afterwards President of Dickinson College. Alonzo Garwood was its first president, and Mr. James Bail was appointed wood-chopper and carrier. Contribu- tions to a society library were received, and in 1860 it numbered 1750 volumes. The membership increased until in 1850 over 150 students wore Chresto's badge. A program in which nearly sixty took part was not unusual, and as the hour of midnight crept softly over a sleeping world, a belated traveler might have heard their eloquent words as they were wafted on the gentle breeze. IIO At o11e time the society was divided into two parts, denominated the Franklinians and Washingtons, and tl1e name of the society was called Columbian, but this experiment did not prove successful and the society reverted to its original name. Then Chresto contributed two men, one of whom was Prof. T. C. O'Kane, as charter members of Athenian Society, and even this very year she sent her best man for Athen's succor. In '55, Chresto moved into the north room of Sturges Library Building, which she had elegantly furnished, and there she remained until a little over a year ago, when we were bidden to come up higher, and entered our commodious and beautiful hall in Gray Chapel, that stone palace on the hill. In 1887, Chresto gave six men to help form Amphictyonia, the last jewel in our literary crown. Who can measure the infiuence which Chresto has exerted during the last half century? 'Who can estimate the services of her useful and distinguished men? Come! O Muse, with thy divine voice, and help me sing her praises, that I may render due honor unto her illustrious name. When war's tocsin was sounded, Chresto's loyal so11s responded. When Lincoln called, Chresto answered coming, and among those who attained distinction we may mention Brigadier Generals Powell, Hamilton, Hurd and Bargor, Major Walden and Captain Hyatt. Many have been highly honored in political, ecclesiastical and educational circles, among whom are Gov. Elbert, of Colorado, Gov. J. M. Hamilton, of Illinois, Hons. Poppleton and Joy, ex-members of Congress, E. A. Parrott, Speaker of the House, Rev. Arthur Edwards, editor of the Norlhwesferu Clzrzlvlzkzzz Aa'voca!c,' S. L. Beiler, Chancellor of the American University , the elegant orator Gunsaulus, and the successful lawyer and munilicent millionaire Fairbanks. Chresto has not lowered her standard in tl1e last few years, but has been grinding out orators and talented men to fill positions in college life. What society has won the oratorical contests for the last four years? We point with pride, certainly pardonable, to Geyer, McConnell and Keen, winners of three local contests, and the first two honored representatives of the State. With a beautiful hall, many faithful 1ne111bers, with lofty aims, and witl1 Sapere Auden for our motto, we heartily join hands with our fellow literary societies in our struggle for higher attaimnents and nobler culture.

But along be 19 with this antagonism of interests, this struggle for recognition on the part of each, we find a strange coalition. At intervals, the rival states laid aside their selfish policies, and came together in convention, to deliberate on the highest interests of all. There were shrines of common worship to be protected and cherished, there were tribal instinct of right and obligation to be kept alive. This assembly was called the Amphictyonic Council, and it had in charge the most sacred interests of the Hellenic race. II4 Under circumstances of a like nature, and to meet like needs, the Amphictyonian Literary Society, its name-sake, was formed. It was felt that the most assiduous self-cultivation overleaps itself if it fails to take account of the mutual aid for culture which associated minds afford each other. Amphic is now a stripling of eight years, but in his youthful trials of strength already he has spread dismay among his fellows. Giant's blood will tell. The society is ever changing in membership, but the spirit of Amphic is unchanged. It lives and will continue to live until it shall have accomplished the full mission of its existence. 'wg W. um.

HE Meletarian Literary Society enjoys the distinction of being the first preparatory organiza- tion in the history of the O. W. U., having been founded in the year 1866. :N O4 Preps. as well as other students realize the value of advantages offered by college literary societies, for the initial development of oratorical talent, and for the training needed to qualify them for positions of honor and trust in Church and State. Meletarian has always been fortunate in attracting to her halls young men of earnest purpose and superior ability, who are anxious to promote her welfare as well as their own. A reference to her record reveals the fact that in the friendly rivalries subsisting between her and her sister societies, she has not been without victories of which she may be justly proud.

Her victories in the past are a suiiicient evidence of the standing of oratory maintained by l1er members. In the last Prep. contest, on March I, 1895, the representatives of Meletarian took tirst and third honors. Meletarian is not satisfied with the honors she has already achieved, but believes that the future has in store for her greater things than the past has' revealed. With a commodious and elegant hall for her meetings, a numerous and enthusiastic membership, and a creditable record to point to, we feel justified i11 predicting for Mele- tarian a splendid and successful career.

N the evening of November 2, 1873, a number of students of the University came together for the purpose of organizing a literary society. A constitution was accordingly drafted, giving ',', 13? the name of Philomathean to the society. That name, held so sacred m the memory of its members, who have long since passed through the portals of the University into the fields of active life, and are now reaping the rich harvest from the seed sown in the sunlight of that grand old society, still stands, a monument of the achievements of the past, a living witness of accomplishments of the present, a true prophecy of the standard to be attained in the future. The first hall of the society was situated on the third floor of Elliott Hall g but during the long Summer evenings the members find- ing it very tiresome to ascend the stairs, petitioned for a room by which this difficulty might be avoided. The request was granted, and they were given the northeast room in the basement of the Sturges Library building. In the Fall term of '93-'94, the society removed to the room formerly occupied by the Chresto- mathean Society just above Philo's old room. Philo now nmnbers thirty-three members, and holds a very high place among the preparatory literary societies ofthe University, as a result of the steady upward growth she has experienced ever since she has been in existence. We can b11t point to her honored alumni as a proof of what has been done. We can but show her now thirty-three earnest workers as the standard of the present, we can but hope for the future that she may steadily increase in her literary powers, and with her motto still, Fbzzk CIIVOIZGX Opus, she may go on to the final goal of perfection.

Everybody is-proud of her achievements in oratory, proud of l1er in athletics, and proud of the choice selection of good looking Preps she here presents i1 to a forbearing public. What would the college world amount to without its Preps, and what 'i ' kind of a figure would the Preps cut Without the Calas? In her responsible position of up- holding and raising the standard of scholarship, manliness and literary ability, Cala has done her duty, and with becoming and characteristic modesty she accepts the plaudits of all, and seeks for new worlds to conquer. First in the past she will be first in the future. Upon the faces of her members one who runs may read tl1e history of her glorious past, and perceive the infinite possibilities lying before her. But why speak farther in general of the deeds of a society so inseparately linked with the greatness of tl1e University? Individuality asserts itself, and in this find our history : I26 F3 if Reader, please forget the rhyme, the poet but recalls The salient points of 11oted men in Calagonia's Halls.

HIS is a time in which all things about us betoken advancement in every field ofintellectual action. Our University has attained a standard of excellence that l1as surpassed even the 'most Sanguine expectations of its founders. This is a day, too, of friendly emulation. Under inspiration of our enviromnents, student with student, and society with society, is striving in- tensely for the acquisition of the greatest good. Thus it is that, amid surroundings such as these, the 111embers of the University Lyceum point with pride to the record of its prosperity parallel with that of our beloved institution, and to the foremost rank that it now holds among its sister literary organizations. The society was founded in the Fall of 1889. At that time it was clearly seen that the rapidly in- creasing membership of the old societies necessitated the organization of a new one. Twelve students, therefore, met in historic Elliott Hall to discuss the problem of the hour. Out of their deliberations issued the latest literary creation. The name, University Lyceum, was proposed by Professor John H. Grove, and the motto, Noi who, bu! whaljl by Professor Clara Conklin. The suc- cess of the Lyceum was immediate and substantial. To its members is due the honor of originating the 130 ffggavgfw Preparatory Oratorical Association of the University, and at the iirst contest held under the auspices of the latter, in january, 1893, to our Mr. A. L. Rogers were awarded first honors. Nor has the subsequent success of the society belied its auspicious advent into public favor. Our growth, indeed, has been so rapid that it was found necessary in january, 1894, to procure more commodious and elegant quarters, in which, in the Library building, we are now domiciled. Our membership limit has been reached, and there are yet worthy applicants desiring admission. Securely have we built, confidently do we await the revelations of the future. We seek not, by high- sounding manifestoes, to gain plaudits of any one, but instead, indeed, do we invite the deliberate exami- nation of him who would cast in with us his lot. Our highest aspiration is, that our influence may not be merely spasmodic, but rather that it may serve as an incentive to the loftiest and most successful moral and intellectual endeavor. Impressed with a proper sense of the responsibilities devolving upon us as factors in the world's great civilization of to- day, we are then prepared to solve life's most momentous problem: The discharge of our duty to our fellow-men and to our God. 'Twas in the bleak October, Where the Websters and the Lincolns, The Fall of eighty-nine, Whom nations now demand, Twelve heads were put together Are taught and firmly grounded To form a lasting line. In pow'rs at their command. A line which would continue Six years have marked the journey Through months and years to come, Of this successful line And give to all who join it, Whose ranks to-day are crowded, A literary home,-- Andhonor doth entwine. A home where Sllllllbiflllg talents All honor to the founders Are wakenld to new life, Of this our happy home, Where man secures the power And may the U. L. prosper To conquer in the strife.

In the list of talent are numbered lecturers unequalled in reputation and ability by any lecturers since tl1e days of Phillipps, Gough, and Beecher. The concerts given have been of the very highest order. The opening concert proved to be a special feature, and gave to the course a popularity which meant success. The Temple Quartette, with its magic power of song, bore away the words of the brill- iant lecturers to welcomed places among the memories of the past, iittingly closing the pleasant and profitable series.

The course of study is planned to develop broad musicianship, and to furnish opportunities for study in special musical lines. Being in connection with a great educational institution, a rare opportunity is afforded for a general course of study along literary lines, in connection with musical studies. The University has recently made l1111SlC elective in all the courses, which gives still further opportunities for the study of music in connection with the regular University course. - 138 sb. X 5.

The graduates of the Conservatory are, without exception, holding positions of responsibility and trust. Prominent among them may be mentioned Mr. Fred Bacon, Director of Music in the Southern Pacific University, Mr. Will F. Gates, Zanesville, O., the author of Musical Mosaics and Anecdotes of Great Musicians , Mr. O. S. Snauffer and Miss Grace Crook, both of the musical department of the Nebraska Wesleyan University, Mr. J. W. Denny, Principal of Music in The Academy, Chapman, Kansas, Mr. Chas. M. jacobus, .Miss Marion Harter and Miss Augusta Hayner, teachers in the O. W. U. Conservatory. Miss Mary Weaver and Miss Gertrude Smith have won wide reputation as vocalists, Miss Weaver being the Gold Medal soprano of the Columbian Exposition. A number of recitals are given annually, before the music students, by the best talent the country affords. To emunerate the array of talent which has appeared during the past few years would be too tedious. It is sufficient to say that the crowning feature of these recitals was the recent concert by the great Theodore Thomas Orchestra. The aim of the department is to furnish musical instruction on a par with the literary and scientific instruction of the University, and with this end in view the course has been made equal to that of any musical institution of the West, and the best of talent is enrolled in the Conservatory Faculty. 140 Ube Etzterpean fllbusical 'Q1nion.

Among the soloists of note which the Euterpean has secured are : Genevra Johnstone-Bishop, Priscilla White, Corrinne Moore-Lawson, Mrs. Trieber, Gertrude Smith, Gustav Berneike, Fred Krumm, Fred Jenkins, and others. The Union has enjoyed hearty support continually, and is this year on a more sound foundation, and has a stronger roll of singers than ever before.

Glee Club was organized during the Fall term of the year '93-l94, with Prof. Blakeslee as Director. From the time of its organization, tl1e Club practiced regularly, and in a few months was in excellent training and ready to come before the public. During the 'A 'i i Winter term of this same year they delighted Delaware with a concert, under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A., and after the close of college for the Spring term they filled an engagement at Mt. Gilead, singing to a crowded house and establishing a reputation. C. H. Lewis as cornetist, Miss Koeppel as soloist, and Charlie Beal as Callio-Maninaseophonist, helped in adding to the popularity of the club. At the beginning of this college year, '94-'95, the club was reorganized, with J. B. Rogers as director, and immediately went into regular training. A date was announced early in the year for a concert in Gray Chapel, but was postponed until the early part of the Spring ter111, and notwithstanding Delaware had been crowded with dates during the year, they were greeted upon their appearance by a very good audience. Later they sang in Marion and Mt. Gilead and received much merited praise from the public. This club consists of ten members, and contains the famous Xliolian Quartet, who have sung throughout the State. As a result of its two years' training, our Glee Club compares favorably with the Glee Clubs of other colleges. 142 C I r-up wr , ' v :wi Q 5 fu 'A ,mffii , 17 rk., N y 4.1 :J yi 2 'gs I, 4.

There is nothing more beautiful in the world than the fi 'l varied forms of nature, yet we pass them by in semi-blindness until taught how to interpret what we see. Then another world unfolds before us, and tl1e most homely objects once T ' unheeded become interesting to our eyes. I11 Europe, 110 higher education is complete without the ability to appreciate nature in art. There is more pleasure in sight-seeing when the traveler is able to 'make notes in his sketch-book as well as in his diary, while every newspaper correspondent should at least understand pen sketching for the illustra- tion of his work. America is fast awakening to this feeling. Happily the time is past when copying a chromo, in our educational institutions, was considered art. Then the workman was considered a faithful student who spent his time blindly copying the faults of others, instead of passing through the llO1ll6ly stage of child-like work, from casts and simple forms, from nature, before enjoying the pleasure of interpreting life as it appears to him, for in art as in literature, no two people express themselves in the Silllle way. The work in our studios is modeled after the most approved methods employed in the art schools of Europe and America. The students of art are taught to see and represent correctly, on a Hat surface, the simplest cast forms, still life and life. A new and interesting feature of this department is the life class, for studying portraitnre and pen and ink sketching, so much used by the journalists of to-day. The accompanying sketches from the living model are by pupils in this class. All students wishing to pursue the decorative arts of china painting and wood carving, which make the home so attractive, are assisted in arranging gracefully original designs, suitable to the object for decoration. In the library, for the benefit of our pupils, may be found the best art periodicals and standard works. The University includes the History of Art in its curriculum, in which students of art may study its history through the successive periods of its development. - 146 M i w, ff ff Y WEE!

', e -q', --jg, HE School of Oratory as a Department of the Ohio Wesleyan University opened its doors to a large number of students in the Fall of'Ninety-four. The establishment of this school had little the stamp of an experiment, for the Dean placed in charge had taught successfully for ii ' many years, also the subjects of Elocution and Oratory had formed for a considerable period a part of the college curriculum, and the large number of students pursuing these branches evidenced their popularity. So it was not surprising that, under the new regime, the enrollment for graduation from this school has reached, in the first year of its existence, about sixty, while the total enrollment for class and private work has neared two hundred. It is with pride that the Ohio Wesleyan School of Oratory proclaims its requirement of high men- tal attainments in all those who would obtain its diploma. Junior rank in one of the college courses must be reached before the diploma will be granted. While this standard is higher than that re- quired by any other School of Oratory in the country, it is proposed to raise it in a few years to the reg- ular A. B., B. S., or B. L. degree. An appreciation of the importance of the new school was shown by the University Faculty last Winter when they passed a resolution granting the Master's Degree for work in this department, the reg- ular senior work of the school counting as one unit, the second unit made up of collateral reading and original work. Physical culture is deemed necessary for complete development, and a two years, course is required of all candidates for graduation. This branch is under acapable instructor, and its beneficial results cannot be overestimated. The rooms occupied by the School of Oratory are the most elegant in University Hall, and afford excellent facilities for rehearsal and the testing of students, voices for public speaking. With high aims, efiicieut instructors, and a favorable location, there seems to be no reason why the Ohio Wesleyan School of Oratory may not attain the highest success. 149 WWCCPS. 1894-95. FRED. K.

A. so pronnnently before the world that a history of it is unnecessary. The story of its founding, in London, in ,N 1844, by a little group of clerks, under the leadership of George Williams, is known to all. xr! From this beginning, the work has extended into many fields. The College Department was organized at Princeton, .in 1877. Since that time, the movement has extended to five hundred colleges in America, having a present membership of over thirty-three thousand. We stand in awe before the possibilities of a band of college men, larger than any organized college society, fraternity or political club, organized for distinctively Christian work. The munbers of college men sent out into religious callings, the numbers uplifted during their college life, and the numbers brought to know jesus Christ, bear witness that the association has seen its opportunities, and has grasped them. Of this great movement, embracing all the best colleges of the world, our association is a part. Springing from the Allen Missionary Lyceum into the Students' Christian Association, in u88o it became the Young Men's Christian Association. The membership, small at first, has increased to more than three hundred boys. On Tuesday and Saturday evenings, the devotional meetings are held, and are a source of helpfulness and power to those who regularly attend.

The Fall Campaign Committee attempts to make it easy and pleasant for each new boy to enter college. Toward the close of last Spring term, meetings were held at 5: 30 every morning. They proved such blessed seasons of com- munion that similar ones will be held this year, and they may become a permanent feature in the association work. Our association is working for its two-fold object: to broaden the Christian experience of each member of the association, and to bring a saving knowledge of jesus to every unconverted boy in college. To what extent this aim has been reached, let the lives of those who have gone from among us tell. The association is a means of binding together the boys of all college classes, and of uniting them in Christian fellowship for Christian work. Recognizing that one is our master, even Christ and all we are brethren, we unite in our song of fellowship: ' Blest be the tie that binds Our hearts in Christian love, and in our consecration hymn: . I'll live for Him who died for me, How useful then my life shall beg I'll live for Him who died for me, My Savior and my God. Such, in brief, is our history and our aim. That the Y. M. C. A. is blessed of God is shown by the work it has accomplished. One of its first outgrowths was the Christian Commission of 1860. Its latest one is the Student Volunteer Movement of 1886. As a recognition of the wonderful work begun through divine guidance by Geo. Williams, he was recently knighted by the Queen. But a far greater honor than that awaits him when he shall be made a king and a priest before God. 152 - 1894-95.

ANNETTE JONES. BELLE GATES. UR association has no new words-only the old and wonderful words of life, and these are grow- ing, day by day, more precious. The watch-cry, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit,'l ringing now around the world, finds joyful echo in the hearts of our eighty association members, tlns Spring of 1895. We are not a mighty throng, but by His spirit we are taking the Kingdom of Monnett for Christ. Our work among the girls seems very great, and quite beyond our strength, sometimes, and we may grow discouraged, but He abideth faithfulf' The real blessing which the University may be to each student individually cannot be fully realized. It is the ai1n of the associa- tion to join heartily with the alma mater in its efforts to give all students a well-rounded spiritual, as well as intellectual training. 'lWe would see Jesusf' 'tis true, but we would also have others see Him. Our college days mean continual contact with many and various personalities. Many a forehead does not bear the Masterls name. We meet many 011 whose lips there is no prayer, no praiseg many who have never known the gift of God's love-who do not understand the joy that is strength, the peace that passeth all understanding, the wisdo111 that cometh from above. Association girls have been with jesus, so let us be faithful witnesses. Let us live to others this love and peace, this joy and this celestial wisdo111. We do not wish to be merely a prayer-meeting organization. We would help to bring the social and the intel- lectual into closest harmony with the religious in every girl's life. We would not merely preach Christ to the unsaved, but, with calm and steadfast purpose and earnest souls, we would press toward the mark for the prize of our high calling of God in Christ Jesus. We are with open faces beholding, as in a glass, the glory of the Lord, are changed into the sa111e image-from glory to glory 5 U for, as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly. 153 The E7!d7ZtgT6fZf.'dlZb7Z qf llze World 772 ihzk Gefzeralzrnzf Zthe volunteer mission JBaub of the Q W. 'CEL ','4A 1 HE Student Volunteer movement l1ad its beginning in the O. W. U. among a few earnest stu- j I dents who were fitting themselves for work in foreign mission fields. They felt the 11eed of an organization that would bring them together more frequently to pray especially for this work. e ' These young men and women were scarcely known to each other as prospective missionaries, and each was without the benefit of the other's experience. The meetings not only proved a great spirit- ual help to these, but also brought the work of the cl1urcl1 in foreign lands more prominently before the college than it had been previously. Other students were encouraged also to make consecration of them- selves for the work. The band has continued year after year, but surely not at any time has there been more spiritual power than was felt by those who were its founders. Representatives of that first little company are found in almost every mission field of the churches. L. A. Core, B. J. Chew and Theresa Kyle, in India, Ruth Sites, Julia Bonafield and J. T. Scott, in China, Anna Bing, Lenora Leeds and Maude Simons, in japan, G. Gutierrez, H. G. Limric, F. D. Tubbs and Mrs. Lottie Kerr Tubbs, of Mexico. QOf these, Mr. Gutierrez is dead, Mr. Limric at home on vacation, and Mr. Tubbs and wife have transferred to Buenos Ayres.j G. G. Froggatt and P. B. Cuppett are also in South America, H. A. Morjician is in Armenia, Mary Harris in Korea. Several are yet at home, O. R. and R. C. Miller and Yer King Eng, with perhaps others of whom we have no knowledge. Mr. Gutierrez was the first to be called into the presence of the King, and he went in triumph from Mexico. Clarence Wilbur was called from the work wl1icl1 needed l1i1n so much in Central America. Some of those first members are at home for rest, after years of labor in the mission field, and of them all, but few have failed to fulfill the covenant vow God permitting to be a foreign missionary. The band from 1889 to 1894 probably passed through the most trying period of its existence. These were the years just after its enthusiastic organization, when every one expected it to live and pro- 154 X WE 1' ur-- I V . ' ,I I . AAIMWQIVQV - ff.v 5 , , . ,W ri W. A.

This was almost disastrous 5 and while there were nominally many volun- teers, but few gave themselves actively to the work. But during all these years, the meetings, though small in attendance, were the warmest and most heart-searching meetings in the college. In all, over Ioo have been enrolled as members. At present, tl1e band is strong in numbers and in spirit. The members realize that only by aggress- ive work will the band flourish and accomplish its object. Still, we need an awakening. May there come speedily a mighty wave of missionary zeal that shall lead students by the score to take the simple pledge, and make a full consecration of their lives and talents to the King, that they may haste to carry the bread of Gospel Salvation to the hungry multitudes across the seas.

Che Granscript Gorps. .55 'AAA 55.3 ' - HE Transcript Corps of ninety-five is not the result of natural selection, nor yet the creat- ures of the spoken word. They were elected by ballot. They rode through on a printed ticket, even more gloriously and smoothly than G. Washington rowed through the Potomac ' ' i or Busby through ninety-four, and yet, a more brainy set of men and women never existed. The corps enrolls some geniuses. Owing to tllelll, it has ceased to enroll others. It came to pass in this wise. Moses deserted the reigning party and went over to the Israelites and joined himself as servant to one called Phi Psi. Pharaoh and his crew said : Moses, thou art no longer one of us, why strivest thou to rule over us?'l The question was brought before the magicians and necromancers of the kingdom, and Moses was discriminated against by a vote of 39 to 14. He and his followers arozied. Of those who remained from the horrid flood, Bobby Fontz is the boy wonder. They say he is preparing himself to be a sword swallower in aidime museum, and thinks he can get a position immediately after graduation. At present, he swallows whole oyster shells, pewter spoons, etc., ad zhyifzilzmz. Then there's Jacoby who is longing to lead a double life, and Sockless Jerry Dunlap, and Moffett who gets around every Spring term and-and-and-but 1ny pencil is out of breath, they are all great, from Kalbfuss, who wields the quill, down to Gamble, who plays the devil. May they ever grow brighter in their respective fields of labor, and be often heard of in the obituary columns of their county newspapers. 157 S ' it E '1 F , Fw N Cf COLLEGE TRANSCRIPT CORPS.

The P. S. is published by a stock company among the students, and its corps is chosen by selection from the differ- ent college classes. It is thus a newspaper by the students of the O. W.

Athletic Association head over heels in debt. As usual, debt having brought despondency, the Association had the appearance of a man passing through a protracted 'ljagf' After a long, tedious search, thanks to the efforts of Lieut. Rhodes, the old Association was gathered together. Here began the New Era for the Association. Although most college teams had by this time been playing for a month, a ball team was organized which by hard work and an unusual display of pluck, in playing against heavy odds, won eight of the last nine games. About :Shoo of the debt was paid. The members of this team, together with the new men who have entered this year, make up the admirable first and second teams of '95's ball season. During the Fall, about 35250 more of the debt was cancelled, so that at present, out of 3450 debt assumed one year ago, only about .2590 yet remains, and before the ball season of '95 closes, we hope to leave tl1e Athletic Associa- tion ofthe O. W. U. free of debt. Manager Greiner has shown himself the man for the place and his efforts in behalf of base-ball are being crowned with success. Much of our success is due to the Faculty, who have given us great encouragement, both financially and otherwise. A year ago the cloud over athletics was dark, very dark, but now the silver lining is beginning to show. fWe might state right here that the silver part is a very essential part when there are such cloudsj 164 11 A 7 5 v , jfootfJBaII Games SEASON ,94 Hntercollegiate 1I l1f6l'sCu855 O.

We .get this informa- Z,f, tion from old fogies who have forgotten that the blood of youth ever ra11 riot through their veins, and from newspaper reporters who know just enough of the game to make them ' dangerous. But the more the game is abused, the more popular it becomes. It has come to stay. Harvard College cannot legislate it out of existence, tl1e best educators all over tl1e country are recognizing its value, like Banquo's ghost, it will not down. Its vitality lies in its manliness. A foot-ball player must be a man, physically and mentally. To be at his best, he must be strictly temperate, thus setting a good example to the body of students. ' Last Fall, both students and Faculty gave foot-ball in the O. W. U. their warmest support, the result was the most skillful tealll we have ever had. It did not wi11 such victories as did that aggregation of crude strength, the team of '90, but it played foot-ball scientific- ally for the first time in tl1e history of the University. We had the misfortune early in the season to play some exceptionally good teams, but defeat only spurred us to renewed effort. At last, on Thanksgiving Day, our eleven Methodist farmers wound up the season at Cincinnati amid a blaze of glory. The streets of that city re-echoed with the yell, What's the score? Whatls the score? Wesleyan, 16, U. of C., 43' Then we girded up our loins for O. S. U., but alas! they came not. Then a banquet, some speeches, and the season of ,94 was at an end. The team was one that we could be proud of i11 every respect. Eleven better men physically are seldom brought together, their average weight being above that of some of the big Eastern teams. In scholarship and good conduct, they have never been excelled by an athletic team from the O. W. U. A glance at the line-up will speedily convince any who are skeptical on that point. Shaw handled the ball at center in every game of the season, the only man who held l1i1n level was the gigantic Otterbein blacksmithf' Coleman touched shoulders with him on the right as right guard, his blue shirt was a rallying point in the Cincinnati game. Cosler was a strong and mighty tower, a guard of the veteran class. His Medusa locks were ever near the ball. Sidner, Sayer and White each had their turn at the same place, and acquitted themselves well. Williamson put up a splendid game at left tackle, his tremendous I 168 JBefore anb Elfter Gaking a Eose of 'wlesleyau jfoot:JBaII Tum'--' ' Swec!

Beacom held down right end, and from that position will captain next year's team. He has a knack of getting in every play, and is always sure to be found close to the ball in every scrim- mage. Martz showed special talent in tmnbling down mass end rushes. Uhl in the same place showed himself a quick and sure tackler. Priddy, Clark and Kline divided the honors pretty evenly at quarter- back. Bass put up a cool, nervy game at right half, he was quick at guarding and sure at tackling. Ehnes at left half made a good record as an all-around player, but especially at line bucking. Captain Welch, with his one hundred and ninety pounds avoirdupois, held dow11 the position of full-back, his strong points were guarding and tackling. . The season was instructive in many things. No one now doubts the utility ofa coach. Too much credit cannot be given to Mr. Dygert for his excellent services. During the few weeks he was with us, as a gentleman and a player he won the Commendation of all. ' The training table, although an experiment, was a successful one and an important factor in keeping alive enthusiasm. Next year's manager will carry out the plans more fully. Nothing stands between us and the championship of Ohio next year except five or six other Ohio colleges. Why C5111 We not take a rank in foot-ball proportionate to our numbers and reputation? XVC can do it next year, if given the encouragement. Almost all this I year's team will be back. What we need is ' x two hundred dollars with which to procure a 'W N ,V coach for the season.

T A WO years ago, 'fSpecial Orders No I Series Bijou under the signature of Adjutant Miller vw vi the sketch, the Jiesent ad utant is reminded more v1v1dl than ever how thin s have changed l J Y 8' gave a most interesting account of the department up to April of 1893. But in looking over The genial and witty B. W. Leavell, Ist Lieutenant 24th Infantry, U. S. A., is with us no more. He cracks his jokes to a more appreciative audience of Uncle Samls negroes on the Mexican bor- der. Lieut. Miller has successively filled positions as captain and signal corps oliicer. Mattox, Wilsori and Greiner have left us and entered the ranks of Seniors. Two years ago the present adjutant was a humble sergeant and lacked the proud military bearing so characteristic of a graduate of the military de- partment of the Ohio Wesleyair University. He is not so humorous as the former adjutant. His spe- cial orders are not scintillating with effervescing wit and fraught with well-rounded periods. Brevity is the soul of wit, but brevity is not vouchsafed to every one. ' The department was established in the Fall of '90, under the charge of Lieut. Leavell, of the 24tl1 Infantry. For the first three years of its history it did not 1I1C6t with l11llCll encouragement or support from the school and dragged along ina manner creditable neither to the school nor to its connnandant. In the Spring of 1893 the battalion was allowed a week's camp, and as the result made a somewhat more creditable showing at the a1111ual inspection. This ended Mr. Leavell's three years' term and a new of- ficer arrived to take l1is place. Probably tl1e most fortunate thing that has ever happened to the department was the detail he1'e of Lieut. C. D. Rhodes, of the 6th Cavalry, who was NOT a Methodist. He had himself been a student at Columbian University, D. C., and at once became a general favorite among the boys. Upon his arrival 176 f -5 ' mf BATTALION BAYONET DRI LL. Wo' 5 . ' ., - - ' 'k','4.f, fn-, . . .. ,mepv-t.:.:' 1 1 ,,,.,.K4-.,':- he found military compulsory and very unpopular. There were four small companies and a band. Since then, drill has been made elective throughout the college course and counts as a two-hour study. The four small companies have bee11 consolidated and thrown into two larger ones. A platoon of artillery and a signal corps have been organized and the band has been placed on a 'yblzzyzhzg baszlvf' Last Spring, target practice on quite an extended scale was indulged in. The prospects for the department as a whole were never brighter. The promise of a Spring encampinent has enthused tl1e more careless and the general espn? de amps' is most encouraging. The band is under the instruction of Prof. Marco, of the University Conservatory, whose care and patience have been rewarded with the most ,ilattering success. The Artil- lery is in charge of Lieut. Peairs, the Sergeant Major of the ISt Artillery, O. N. G. And the Signal Corps is becoming proficient in tl1e use of heliograph and flags under charge of Lieut. Rhodes himself. But while military affairs are so much improved in the last two years, they are hardly yet upon a basis satisfactory to those interested in tl1e department. The need of a small annual appropriation from the college to defray incidental expenses and those of a Spring encampmentg and most of all, the need of a drill hall and armory should be emphasized.

El. 1Reception. - 'f if +: j1 HIS publication is not intended as a news dispensary, but our investigations have led us to dis- coveries that will necessarily be startling, and will be received as news by the large body of our readers. We have discovered some new facts in regard to that time-honored institution, the Y. M. C. A. reception. We have learned that every one of these receptions is preceded by a union prayer meeting i11 Monnett chapel. We didnlt get this from any oiiicer of the Y. M. C. A., or Y. W. C. A. None of them knew anything about it. We got it from a senior who has been to every one for the past seven years, and knows that they really occur. These are not largely attended, at eight of the entire number he has attended, there were present only one representative of each of our Christian organizations. Of the profit of these meetings, we have not the space to speak. Secondly, we have learned that the primary object of these receptions is to stifle homesickness in the newly-arrived prep, and to get l1i1n acquainted with our society. Don't let this discovery startle you too much. N one of us know when this was ever done. We have seen the poor prep, year after year, to all appearance, hung up on a nail that holds him stifiiy, with heels drawn back against the wall, palms flat against the wall, and a look on the face that denotes unspeakable agony. When we went to our first one, we stood that way. And, oh, how homesick we were! We hope never again to be as homesick as we were at that moment. We didn't get acquainted with the people we were introduced to, we didn't re- member them and didn't wa11t to. But let us not speak of the agonies of the prep at these receptions. That is too sad a subject for these pages. It is our aim to put nothing here that will cause tears to flow down and begrime this back. We have shed enough tears over the manuscript to make us slow to put anything in print that will arouse sad recollections to any. To the second year man, tl1e Y. M. C. A. reception experience is a less miserable one. He gets away from the wall and actually engages in snatches of conversation with those to whom he is introduced. 182 He doesn't have a good time, but the value of the experience as an educator to him is immeasurable. He here makes his first date. Oh fateful event, that steps him forth into a new experience that is to be the dawn, or the evening twilight of his existence among us! Youthful reader of these pages, we do but seldom digress, but feel it our duty to tell you of the awful import of the first date. It is the opening of a course that leads through devious paths to a series of cut-offs and an early suspension, or tl1e course that leads through a four years' course of neatly arranged schedules, weekly calls, and ultimately a CO111111C11CC1Y1611l1 marriage. U Of these two evils choose the least? But to return, Cas Mr. De Quincey often saysj after the second year the reception is a noble oppor- tunity. It is better than a regular reception, because you don't wait half an hour alone before she comes down. It is better thall a class reception, because you donlt have to lace-rate your conscience by beating the machinefi For the freshman it is a glimpse at paradise, for the sophomore it is a feast of reason, for the junior it is bliss ecstatic, and we haven't yet met the senior who could express what it is for him. We suspect, however, that it is not yet time to announce. A hasty retrospect recalls for the Y. M. C. A. reception a proud history. No one will ever know all the good it has done, but there is already record of five Y. M. C. A. presidents, who, with as many representatives of the sister organization, have at a Y. M. C. A. reception laid plans for a life of useful- ness together. Whether these plans would l1ave been made elsewhere, it is idle to surmise, but there is no doubt that what good comes from them is directly attributable to this institution. And there are more plans to follow. We won't tell you who are making them, or whether they are complete, but tl1e authors of them will unite with us in a shout of praise to tl1e Y. M. C. A. reception. Long may she live, to educate the prep, to enthuse the freshman, to edify the sophomore, to en- rapture the junior, and to help the senior out with his life plans. 183 E. T.

HAPEL services are over, announcements all made, and everybody anxious to get out, when Dr. Bashford says: We have with us to-night one of our most remarkable and most worthy graduates, the Right Honorable Mr. -1, Ph. D., D. D., P. D. Q., from whom I have no reason to doubt but that you will be delighted to hear a few wordsfl With a nervous tug of his antique whiskers, the Right Honorable discharges this short extemporaneous speech, wl1icl1 he has thought and worried over for a week to come, upon a defenseless, hungry, homesick audience: I FELLOW STUDENTS: It gives me., unbounded pleasure to look into the sea of youthful faces before me. It makes me feel like a boy again, and recalls 111y student days. Looking over this audience, I would congratulate you, fallow students, on a great change. When I was here, we men had to plod on in our weary way alone. Now, when I look over these tiers, filled with so many gaily-painted feminine faces, I think what inspiration a man must draw fro111 co11tact with such beautiful beings. QDrs. McCabe and Whitlock look highly pleasedj If I were here now, I fear I would play a draw game all the time. QThree Seniors faint.j Encouraged by such surroundings, I can say nothing more fitting to' you than to advise that you burn the midnight oil-burn it in the parlor. QApplause by Tackaberry, Richards, and othersj The first thing that impressed me when primally I sighted the dear old campus to-day was this magnificent, large, lofty, expansive structure. Students of Delaware, I congratulate you-I congratulate you in my most impressive manner, in having such a magnificent chapel building. I have traveled a good deal in 111y own weak way, but I never was in such a beautiful audience room before. CApplause.Q I have stood at the feet of the Alps when the sun's rays were scattered by a million crystal prisms, I have seen the rainbows waving,p1'0 and con, over Niagara, I have viewed the painted rocks on Michigan's blue shore 5 but never before have I ever beheld such a ne plus ulbfa, szkze guanorz, habeas corpus, e plurzbus mmm blending of color as I now behold with 111y dimming eyes in your glorified dome. CGreat applausej 186 Speaking of chapel makes me think we used to have it in the morning-the first hour. Then, whenever some long-winded old alumnus Capplausej was introduced, we boys would always encourage him by profuse applaudits to speak on as far into 'the next hour as he would. QGroans.j But times have changed since the war. I know you are all lmngry, and don't want to hear any old, dry speech, so I will close. fSeniors look relievedj just a word of e-ncouragement to you all. The old world is not such a bad world, after all. Fit yourself here by studying Williams' English Grammar, and McCabe's Philosophy, and Perkins' Mathematics, and SC1ll2111S,jOkCS QSemans blushes-mljg fit yourself for living, and then go out and earn one, and you and tl1e world will get along all right. H College preparation is the best thing in tl1e world for a man. When first I came here from the farm, nobody would ever have believed there was so much in me. But I worked hard, and got good grades, and never did anything wrong, and now you see what I am-a self-made man. I have always held self-made men in high esteem. - H With the great changes in the world to-day, standing thus at the dawn of the twentieth century, we can catch but glimpses of the infinite possibilities for the actors on life's stage then. You will be there. On you, as college graduates, will rest the responsibility of bringing on the millennium. tDr. Bashford nods emphatically.j We older alllllllll have done our work well, but we are passing away, and you must do your best to fill our places. To do this successfully, you must waste none of the golden opportunities opening to you in these college years. f H Well, as I said, I will be brief, as I k11ow it has been five hours since you tried to get your share at the club. I will close, congratulating you on your beautiful surroundings and on tl1e opportunities you have to hear good speakers. H I thank you, one individually, and all collectively, for your earnest, painstaking, heartfelt attention, and kind, confidential and unsolicited applause, and can wish you no greater boon, no better thing, than that you be as successful in life as the members of my class have beenf' CA stiff bow, and he has gotten the worth of his 393ro,ooo.oo.j 187 Ubrougb the 1keQaboIe.

Wl1e11 balmy Spring had opened her cam- paign, one day, two graduates of Coin's Financial School, Rome, Italy, strolled into or upon the college campus-about chapel time, and proceeded to amuse the Preps and incidently the upper class- men, who like to see the Preps enjoy themselves, with the spicy antics of a cinnamon bear. The bear rose and fell with the soft undulating motion, re111i11ding one of his first seasickness, and moved about in his two-step waltz with as much confi- dence as the roller-skate novice. Then jack Edwards, before whose chemical emporiuin the show occurred, borrowed twenty-five cents, gave it to the Italian, and the bear actually began to shin up a tree and bark. The impressiveness and solemnity of the scene was somewhat lessened by Ed. Miller offering to wager the keeper that he could climb better than tl1e bear himself. They were just getting ready to send Ed. up first, un- muzzle the bear and let him follow and see which would reach the tree top first, Wllell the chapel bell rung. ollege Evolution. , U H As REPRESENTED IN THE VARIED EXPERIENCES OF JIM.

VI. When the milking was done, jim changed his clothes, and saddled his -ine-hlooded mare, And cantered away to the village for mail, with a rollzeknzg freedom from care. In the hox was a letter for ma, a paper for pa, -to hnnself the third was addressed ,- H? tore of the wrapping, and hela in his hand a catalogue, Illdlififbl dressed. VII. Ohio Wesleyan Unzversigf' were the words on its front, with the date 'ninegz-three-'nineyffour ,' jim turned o'er its leaves, and stopped, now and then, to read just a paragraph o'er. Then into his poehet he put them all saji, and went to his horse at the raeh, Untled her and mounted, and rode away home, with the moon shintng full at his hath. VIII. He stahled his mare and ruhhed her down well, and gave her some hay for the night: Then went to the house, and drew up his ehair to the tahle, where hurned a good light, Gave his mother her letter, his father the paper, and he himseh' sat down to dream Of a eollege degree, ty' honor and wealth-whzeh are not, hy the way, what they seem. 1 IX.

For a trip a cheval he had planned, in the Fall, as soon as warm weather should come, And down town, one day, ,saw a horse on the street, the szght M whzch struck him quite dmnh. H was the same hlooded mare that he sold on the farm, and she knew htm yet even to-day, For she poked out her head, sbflv nyped at his coat, and showed the old spirit Q' play. XXXIV. -Fm entered a stare, and inquired cj the ch'rk who it was owned the horse at the raek ,- The clerk knew the horse and :ts owner as well-said the latter was soon comhzg hack. just then he came in .hm approached him, and asked what he'a' take for that horse out there.

XXXVI. One day the next week, fha in saddle set out for a trho to the great Serpent mound, Hhth a kodak to snap up a wew, here ana' there, fy' the people and scen'ry around.

He covers the entire field, from using bird lime to operating trousers as a bait. Batting a Fine Art is a bonanza of valu- able information to ball players. Mr. Coleman, who is somewhat of a batter himself, treats the subject in a masterly manner. The Heavenly Twins, published by Perry Bros., is attracting great attention. J.

Onc't I had a fool idee-and it wuzn't long ago- I 'At without college schoolin' no one had an earthly show. I'd gone to deestrict school a spell a11d learned to do my sums And 'rithmetic and gography and got ink on my thumbs. We had a parson near our place who went to Delaware And he said I wuz right an' he would see 'at I got there, He talked to dad-I didnlt dare for dad mos' had a fit- I Went, but come back home nexl day, jes' plum cleaned out in grit, The only day 'at I wuz there I thot I'd look around And see what all them buildings held, a'scattered through the ground. The first I struck-they all had names-wuz one called Elliott Hall! That wuz a lie-it had three floors 'an wa'nt no hall at all. In there I struck th' blamedest room, jes' full of things like toys, Wheels an' weights an' a buzzin' machine ainoosin' lots of boys. I took some handles--it started to buzz an' lightuin' then struck me, When I come to myself I found I'd bin in the physical laboratory. 196 wi' T J!--M 1 W .vga A ,. v,,pC'frrg:zT'2A Aix, X , , '-QUE' A' ' N ' - 'vim-f Y Jk'wu - lhbxg .. f 'NK 'Ji' ' 01 WA , ggi ,-Lfulv.

I ENTLE HEADER:-3-Do you see the picture of a man f P51 with which the artist has attempted to ornament the 1, .xx left of this page? Please do not expect a person who i v ' XP has passed through what that man is experiencing to ff ' speak calmly of his experience. But perhaps you are surmising ' what is the matter with him. I can set you right. He has not ,QQ . i in ' St. Vitus' dance, nor delirium tremens. Both those are prohibited ii A Z 1 .B NNT H I by rule of the Faculty. He is experiencing a violent attack of that V T' , terrible malady from which all have suffered who have ever been I i X connected with our beloved University. He is suffering from , - I3 U l .1 Senior rhetoricals. The origin and cause of tl1is disease has ,X never been published. Some people hold the theory that such , X ills are visitations of Providence, and for years the cry has come T f' N XV ' up from sub-junior-prep to sub-president, How long-oh, how j V V long? There has been found 110 ballll in Gilead for tl1e malady, fi A-fi ig ht p and humanity suffers woefully. The writer has had personal 'A ee -e experience with it for four years. I11 those years, it has raged in A - TE four different, but equally virulent, forms. The first year it hung 2 on with its grip of death through the entire year. The next year an attelllpt was 111ade to abate it, but it raged with increasing fury. Last year it was somewhat restrained for a part of the year, but burst out in its worst form in the latter part of the Winter term. This year it struck us acutely. It is the first stage of our acute form that our artist has portrayed at the opening A 200 of this article. I would not have you understand that every Senior looked like that picture. None of the girls looked like that picture. Regard for tl1e sex- causes the editors to refrain from publishing a snap-shot of a representative feminine victim. At the close of this article is placed a very good picture of a portion of tl1e audience. The comatose state there represented was not the universal condition. A faithful report of an ordinary session of Senior rhetoricals is given. Read it, and picture the scene to him. Present, 46, absent, 48, victims, 5. The audience reviewed, showed 4 taking notes tDr. Bashford and Prof. Fulton also taking notesj, 3, reading newspapers, 5 studying astronomy, 3 scanning pamphlets, 6 attentively listening, 3 sound asleep, 6 thinking of Sem. dates, 2 listlessly indifferent, 3 paring finger nails, 4 looking out of windows, 2 wondering what to substitute for Science of Religion, 6 anxious to get out. It is superfluous to elaborate an explanation of the conditions recorded above. The 48 who were absent were merely obedient to tl1e first law of nature-self-preservation3 the 3 reading newspapers were searching for the discovery of some cure for the evil, those paring their nails, listlessly indifferent, looking out windows, or sound asleep, were the ones who had so lo11g ago forgotten when tl1ey had been stricken by the plague that their hearts were hardened. The wild paroxysms of the victim made 110 impression upon them. He 111ight have choked to death i11 one of his paroxysms for all they cared. There are no further characteristics of this dire plague that 1ny readers do not know already. This year, as last year, the worst stage was reached near the . . close of the Winter term, and the most violent -W cases were exhibited to the public. All have Y 1 -L .,.,, seen the dread agony of these pitiable creatures, j 4' 1 ' whose miseries have made miserable the whole l .dl T , - college. But for you, my less sophisticated reader, the worst is yet to co111e. You cannot 'li piimiii M I IM U escape it. Your fate is unalterable. You are ,,,L,-4, . , s, fi., 20! moving on by slow but certain strides into the plague-stricken district. You may not ,hope to escape by vaccination or inoculation, nor can you rid the district of its plague by quarantine or disinfectant. All these have failed up to yet, and will fail. Hidden beneath us there stands a great pool into which foul streams flow. From its decaying contents rise stench and miasnla that breed the baccilus of our plague. This baccilus strikes unerriugly for the senior, bores through his skull, buries itself in his brain and niaddens llllll. Youth of the future, I pity you. Even now I seein to hear the terrible groaning of ninety-six in its p2l1'OXyS1llS, to hear the distant moaning of ninety-seve11 and eight. Aye, even from the baby lips of yet unuuinbered and unknown classes, I hear their piping, wailing cries, in their infant illness. Let the111 learn to weep now, for when their feet stand here on the threshold of their manhood, they must groan and moan in the clutches of a more terrible nialady, and will find 110 relief. f - ,-.-. -I?.,i. ,L ':,..,-- ,,- 1 sill - T55 ' 'T he:-Q7-P ,lv in Q. -7 V' ' if X N5 'gag If 'lllvj 'A ig I '.--f 1-A-- L: ,-il - oLs fl? 202 Elie Geuturrg Club.

HIS large and prosperous institution, located in the very heart of the University, runs nine months in the year. The principal laboratory where affinities are tested is Mounett Hall, -j-Tiff where a large amount of machinery is employed,consisting of receptions, entertaimnents, sleigh-rides, calls, Frat. picnics, dates and schemes of all descriptions. Under the supervision of the Preeeptress, some excellent re-agents have been discovered which have been found helpful in the affinity Laboratory, among these are cut-ofTs,l' squelches, diseiplines,,' and U temporary absences at home for various reasons Csore eyes, family sickness, etc.j l' It has also been discovered that a tire generally destroys the mixing process. The maximum time of the process is three years, running through the Sophomore, junior and Senior years. Matches are modeled from Sophomore pines, have heads l' put on in the junior year, and generally get in a box in the Senior year. A large amount of raw material for the process is supplied every year from the Preps and Freshmen. It should also be noted that unclaimed timber ll may generally be worked up into good matches if sent to this institution 5 however, it must not be too seasoned. A large product is turned out each year, and sent to all parts of the world. In lllftlly cases, matches require an extra process, known as U tying-up, generally con- ducted by the Master Mechanic of this institution or some o11e of his corps of assistants, soon after the product leaves the factory. Matches having any friction during the Summer or Fall, after leaving the factory, are generally destroyed.

Avril 4, '95- .5 Mr. --: The Faculty of the University are compelled to ask you to remove your son from school. His conduct in this, his Senior year, has been very dis- graceful, and his separation from the other stu- dents is imperative. The charges against him, which are almost too shameful to name, are, attending, theatrical plays given by people of Delaware, assisting young lady down the front steps of college during the icy time of last Wiiiterg eating peanuts on the College Campus, utter inability to appreciate Nelson's joke, No. 579, Jan. 17, and speaking dis- respectfully of Senior rhetoricals. Hoping that you will remove your son at once, and save us further trouble, I remain, Yours with regret, J. W. BASHIAPORD, Pres. O. W. U. El llbrepe 1Ravin'. Once, when it was class time nearly, as I hurried, glancing merely At a lesson that I should have got an hour or so before, Loudly up the stairway sounding, came a footfall, then a pounding- Such a loud and graceless pounding, pounding at my chamber door. 'Tis some blessed Prep, I muttered, f'pounding at my chamber doorg Only that, and nothing more. Perhaps I put it somewhat stronger, but, hesitating then no longer, 'K Wellf' said I, come ing and truly, your forgiveness I imploreg But the fact is, I was humping, and so loudly you ca111e bumping That I felt so111ewhat like thumping you, as I've done men before, And I'd hate so much to hurt you-'I Here I opened wide the door- A general agent-number four. Steadily upon him glaring, long I stood there, wondering, staring, Wishing he were in perdition, then and thence forevermore. But the silence then was broken, and, when each our names had spoken, Never was his speech once broken while he stayed within the door. And I muttered, and the echo whispered something like a bore 3 All of that, and something more. He said, with many a smile and Hatter, that he'd speak of a little matter, Then in he stepped, that brassy agent, with more smiling than before. Not the least delay then made he, not an instant stopped nor stayed he, But his old slouch hat then laid he down upon my chamber floor: Sat him down within the rocker, far within my chamber door, Sat and rocked, and talked some more. Then this brassy man, beguiling my sad fancy into smiling By the gay and mirthful look upon the countenance he wore. H Though I see no book or book sack, sure, said I, H of WO1'dSt1lC1'C,S11Ol2.CkQ Sprightly, smiling, lively agent, wandering on from door to door, 208 Tell me what thy business here is-why you came within my door? '5 And the agent talked some more. But the agent, sitting, sitting in the easy chair, spoke only, Nor one word could I get in edgewise while his speech he did outpourg Sentence after sentence uttered, while I sat and thought and muttered, While unto myselfI muttered, Oh, this speech hels learned before, But I hope he soon will leave me, as it must be nearly fourfl But he talked on as before. Then that agent ceased beguiling 1ny sad spirit into smiling, Straight I went and got my hat from off the nail behind the door, For the thought was in me rising that the stand-in I'd been prizing Would be lost and gone forever, as Ild made three U cuts before, But that grim, ungainly, ghastly agent smiled and told me, Hark, now, just a moment moref' Agent, said I, thing of evil, agent still, jail-bird, or devil! And with that I hung my hat up and I walked across the floor, Seized his brawny arm, undannted, while that smile his lips still haunted, H By the heaven that smiles above us, tell me truly, I implore, Is there-is there money in it? Tell me-tell me, I implore! 'I Qnoth he, Ten a day or inoref' Be that, then, the word of signing, quoth I, 111y firm hold resigning, Get thee out thy contract, and let's have this business o'er, For you've kept me past my class time, and the 'Prof' told me the next time That I 'cut,' he'd bring my name the Faculty before. And the papers then we signed, and I showed l1i1n out the door, And the clock said half-past four. Now, that agent was a liar, for when I took that book to try her As I canvassed, passing onward, on and on, from door to door, Each man's eyes had all tl1e seeming of a demon that was dreaming As I hnstled o11t the gate, and his brogan went in the door. So, while my soul within me tarries, though the agents press me sore, I shall canvass-nevermore. 209 llt l5 'IRQQIICEYGD I That all stude11ts returning home late at night should take pains to announce their arrival to all on their own Hoor, at least, if not to all in the house! That students should make every effort to crack and disligure as much as possible the side- walk in front of Gray Chapel. It is an experi- ment, and the authorities desire that it be thor- oughly tested! But that in rainy weather, when the ground is unusually soft, everybody should remember to tramp across the front lawn ! That students should cultivate 'the habit of coming in late to chapel and to recitations. It puts the professors in good humor and gives every- one the idea of an over-worked man! That young ladies and gentlemen should walk together on the streets as often as possible, especially after chapel, and that they should spend all their leisure moments together, either on the college campus, or in the museum or the library! 2lO what Eben will E0 mext lpear. l'Extract from College Transcript of june I5, 1895.1 Anderson--Missionary to Sweden.

I had a dream fcfkzkk was not af! a dream. HOUGHTS of the past surged through my brain as I sat before my cheerful fire, one evening, and I went back twenty-six years, to the time when I was a light-hearted student at the O. W. U. The old crowd passed before ine, and forgotten pranks came with it. The Austins 'A I and Cherringtons, I saw by the Commencement invitation in my hand, were still represented. I wondered if the campus surrounding Monnett Hall, containing about twelve acresj' was still one of rare beauty, consisting of woodland, hillsides, lawn and creek. I wondered, and thereat I beat 1ny brow, how that H most estimable young mann went through school on 5591.60 a ter111. Do tl1e boys and girls still-but, of course, they do. Thus I mused until a white envelope on my table attracted my attention, and with inward groans and misgivings, I tore it open. Ile ad ffades 'l were the words which greeted my astonished eyes, another card, covered with Latin words, was enclosed, but, strive as I would, I could not recall enough of my Latin to read more than present this at the door. This was by no means the first invitation of the kind that had been extended to me-in fact, I had been frequently assured that I was on the high road to that pointg but as this was the first time a ticket, and a complimentary one at that, had been sent 1l1C,I decided to accept. How to get there was the question. H You know how well enough, said a voice at my elbow, but for fear you would not take the most direct route, Satan sent me to bring you. Put on a hat and comef' ' My amazement was so great upon suddenly beholding him, that I meekly put on a hat and fol- lowed him out the door. As we left the house he pulled a silver cigarette case from his pocket, and, tak- ing a cigarette therefrom, lighted it. I see you are a slave of the weed, I remarked. Yes, he re- plied, everybody smokes in Hades. If ice could be said to exist around a resident of Hades, these re- marks may be said to have broken it, and llly conductor proved to be a talkative fellow. You won't be lonely in hell-in fact, you will feel quite at homej' he said. A vast number of your friends are there. Hell, you know, is not ru11 on the plan generally imagined on earth. Everybody don't burn. That for . 212 which a person is sent there, he is always striving to do, but without success. Your former Latin profess- or, for instance, is continually trying to get the throne, but his plans always fail at the last 1no1ne11t. He did succeed in getting on one of tl1e general committees though. He has two crimes against him-puns is the second. Go right ahead now a11d you canlt miss the gate. I have to go for another fellow. Good- bye, and my guide disappeared as abruptly as he had appeared. Before me lay a broad, well-worn path, and down this I started. Suddenly, an i1nn1e11se wall rose before 1116, and barred further progress. Looking closely I saw a small iro11-barred gate, above which was the inscription, This is Hadesfl I tried the gate. It would not move, so I gave the college yell. A great commotion arose inside and I could see forms fleeing wildly in the other direction. A small wicket on my right opened and a face on which was depicted absolute terror timidly appeared. H Please don't,'l he said. Don't what? I asked. Make that noise again, was the reply. This is not a place of torment. What do you want? 'I I want to get inf, said I, presenting 1ny co111pli1nentary ticket. He looked at it and then said, I wish you would wait a few moments, I don't know anything about this, I am only here temporarily. Morris is the regular 111311 here and he has gone on the other side where a gang is about to serenadef' I waited, as there was nothing else to do. My impatience was becoming great when the well-known form of my Latin professor hove in sight. I called to him and explained 1ny trouble. He Slllllefl one of his benevolent smiles and remarked, Res gates, my friend, a matter of the gates surely. The gate-keeper gave a shriek of anguish and fled, so the professor took advantage of the opportunity to open the gate. He greeted me cordially saying, I am glad to see you here. However, there are too many of our repre- sentatives here now to make this my ideal spot, and, thus far, I have been unable to spot my ideal, as Satan's motto seems to be, ' I deal in spots,' and the O. W. U. has evidently been 0116 of those spotsf' He paused to smile and I prayed for deliverance. It was at hand, for Satan rushed up and breathlessly asked, Who 1113116 that noise? What noise? asked the professor. V N The one that caused the stampedef' ,said Satan, panting. That was the college yell, sir, I said, I gave itil 213 He seized 1ny hand and wrung it, while tears coursed down his cheeks. You have brought me that which I long have sought-the supreme punislnnent. You shall remain with me and next to myself shall be the most feared one of Hades. While we were passing along, Satan explained to me the plan of Hades. H We have,l' he said, a great many who suffer no torments of body. However, all residents are graded, and those whom even I loathe-murderers and hypocrites-are kept in chains and compelled to undergo the greatest tortures I can invent. But here is my throne. Sit you on my right and listen. Satan had no more than opened court than the rotund form of my old instructor in physiology appeared. He could scarcely control his anger, and he roared, something has to be done and that quickly. I won't stay here another minute as things now are. If you want me to stay, you will have to put GlBlemis out. I won't stay in tl1e same place with a man who can tell a more improbable lie than I can. The professor was assured that such a thing was out of all possibility, and he left appeased. We next we11t to the place of supreme torture. This was the dreaded spot known as the bottom- less pit. It was a deep, dark, ghastly hole, with creeping things in every crevice. Across the top lay a tree, around which was tied a cable. This hung down in tl1e middle ofthe hole and its swaying and twisting betokened a weight on the end of it. The shrieks of indescribable anguish and terror that issued from the mouth of the hole indi- cated that this weight was a human being. This,'l said Satan, is a bottomless pit. This cable passes around the waist of the victim and he hangs at a depth of seven hundred feet. His feet are chained together and his hands are tied behind his back. Every twenty-four hours one of the small strands of the cable snaps at a point just in front of his eyes. He is forced to see his thread of life slowly grow weaker. Below him is nothing but space and he is absolutely powerless. Who is this to whom you are meting such fearful punishment? I asked. The originator of the fraternity girl system, replied Satan. Let us move on. We had proceeded but a short distance when we were forced to step aside to pern1it a long line of gaunt, ghastly men to pass. Their faces showed the utmost misery and each carried a ball and chain. Satan shivered. N These, said he, are the members of the criminal class of which I spoke a short time 214 ' ago. I, even I, loathe them, and have devised for their punishment the 2lCll1E of horrors and torture ,ach morning they are iequned to listen to the recitatioi f.

AST Fall, it will be remembered, the Seniors were not called together for Senior rhetoricals for several weeks. Prof. Fulton was ready, but it was because he did not realize what he had to confront. Dr. Bashford, it seems, still retained in memory the experience of facing a motley, T wild, unkempt lot of raw recruits to whom his duty three years ago had been to impart some information in regard to the Scriptures. That experience was still a nightmare to him, and he dreaded a repetition of it. Finally, however, they faced necessity and called the class together. Their worst fears were realized. Whatever improvement in appearance had been hoped for was lacking. Even the beauty of the girls could not make of the whole assembly a respectable looking class. Yet their appearance was not all the trouble. The room seemed to smell as if the registers were turned wrong, and were giving foul air instead of pure. The professors went to the registers, but found them all right. With that sur- passing keenuess of discermnent, and delicacy of sense perception which they possess, they immediately dismissed the girls, but asked the young gentlemen to remain to listen to a few remarks from Dr. Bashford. The doctor said in substance that there were a 'few things of vital importance to success in life which the class, he observed, had as yet sadly neglected. He meant regularity of baths and general neatness. Firstly, he observed that many of the young men were cultivating a beard upon the upper lip. He disliked these, for he had further observed that in addition to being accumulators of dust, bacilli and microbes, these beards had become the rendezvous Qas it wereb of the various kinds of food provided at clubs. fWe have since learned that a careful student of such matters can recognize the club at which a Senior boards by the peculiarity of the stray tooth picks that are stuck into his long, shaggy moustachej The doctor thought upon the whole these beards should be shaved off. He granted that this would ' 215 necessitate the brushing of the teeth to make them presentable, but he thought the improvement worth the effort. He also deprecated the wearing of celluloid cuffs. Nothing sounded more uncanny to him- more like pebbles rattling down upon a coihn lid than shaking hands with a man who wears Celluloid cuffs. Their rattle always suggests fragility. .Better economize on shirts and wear a dickie than wear celluloid. Furthermore, one should not wear the same tie until threadbare. Fifty cents judiciously ex- pended would buy a tie that could be worn a long time, but not forever. He would advise them to get a new one this year. Some would be entering conference soon, or would be applying for schools, and the appearance of their ties would be against them if there was not to be a change. The doctor mentioned a number of such minor faults, and offered criticisms that were well re- ceived. But he went further. He wished to suggest tl1at an occasional bath is a good thing. There were physiological reasons that make it a man's duty to himself to take frequent baths, but there were other reasons, very apparent to him, which made it also a part of a ll12.l1,S duty to others. QThis was delicately put.J The possession of several pairs of shoes seemed to him to be a very good thing. By frequent changes of shoes they could give their foot-gear a chance to air and promote mutual comfort. Now, the present Senior class is not bright nor swift to catch a point, but when they had thought it over carefully they concluded that Dr. Bashford l1ad hinted that it was time to take a bath. Their spirit rebelled. They passed a resolution stating that water is to drink and not for shaving lather, nor for baths. And what else would you have expected? The reform asked for was too radical. They had been allowed to go according to their own natural habits for ahnost four years. These habits were rooted deeper than the hairs of their beards. Their beards could come off, but their habits of untidiness were too strong to allow it. So now you see them with their untrimmed hair and unshaved faces just as you did last year. And as to the bath, the dangers of colds, coughs, catarrh, bronchitis, pneumonia, con- sumption were too frightful to think of it. The doctor asked too much, too much ! 219 'wleslepan 1RuraI Eepartment. A. B. PLOWMAN , O. J. BARNES, WOODS, F. E. BROOKE, R. B. I-IAvs, GRACE MCMUI.LP2N, J. A. PEASELV, B. V. REDDISH, GREEN. B. I..

The lines of suffering on each side of his cigarette, coupled with the R. B. Hayes glare of ' ti I 4 ' ' ferocity, coming from his sunken eyes, indicated that he had reached the patience-ceases-to-be- a-virtue point in his career. We emitted one of our own original humorisms thinking to cheer him, and to avert the apparently impending storm. But, no! With glistening, briny, oblong tears in his eyes he stated that he wished to enter a solemn, life-size protest against the annoying Socratic method some un- derclassmen employ, that their bumps of inquisitiveness are abnormally developed, and that he wanted to warn these offenders that he would reduce the size of their inquisition carbuncle by a large majority and a loaded club on sight without grace if they didn't Z?Z.S'flllll'67' ceaseth their assaults. We thought him nan conqios as he had just escaped from Senior rhetoricals, but when he bombarded us with the following questions which the lank, perennial prep had fired at him during the past lunar month, we succumbed and agreed to print his protest at our confidential rate of IO cents a line, no extra charge for exclamation points. When he finished the list with a forced smile, our octavo heart went out towards him, and we re- gretted bitterly that in our blithesome greeting we had advised him to take Hood's at 69 cents a bottle, and save money. Only those with strong constitutions and steady nerves should read this list: . How often does quarterly meeting occur? . How long did the Thirty Years' War last? . Who wrote Gray's Elegy? .

Tap, tap ofa lead pencil on the desk. Noise in- creases. , Lecturer.- Let us have quiet now. This is the last Saturday morningl shall meet you this term, and there are some things of ZI7Zf07'fLZ7ZC6 I want to say. You know, we are not accustomed to go out much during the week of examinations, so don't come to me for permissions. The young ladies are having too many entertainments. I have H 228 spoken to Prof. Austin, and he thinks as I do. You should not think of accepting every invita- tion, but make a choice, and 11ot go to every one It lowers the scholarship, and your health is en- dangered. There is too much sending up of trays 011 Sunday morning. If you have gone out the evening before, you must come down to breakfast. It is mere laziness, and shows an animal nature to be stretched out in bed all day. If the young gentlemen are not in time for Clll1631't2I.ll111lE11tS,01' if you can't be down in time, you need not expect to go. Prof. Austin may have different ideas from me. I have been going round to get tl1e lay of the land and find out who expect to keep their rooms next term. Come to me at buszizess lzomfs if you expect to keep your room or if you don't ex- pect to keep it. Now about the cleaning of the rooms. Take all the bric-a-brac from the walls and put it i11 the bureau drawers, or clothes presses. I am afraid you are not careful to have these clothes presses thoroughly cleaned before you put things into them. Better have a good house-cleaning to-day. H I'll read to you this morning from 'Daily Food for Daily Need! Uibe Sophomore jfrat. EENLY feeling the lack of a boon-companionship and of a closer intercourse, also perceiving the dearth, in the Sophomore Class, of men competent to take charge of it, two of the more ff 'i': ambitious and heretofore honored members of that class got their brains to working simul- taneously and came to a conclusion. They concluded to l1l1l11Ol21t6 themselves upon the altar of self-sacrifice, and to become the Qglgf out of which should spring a Sophomore frat. Under the in- fluence of a heated discussion this egg began to develop a third membrane, from which sprang two wings and a tail feather. EA very lopsided chick resulted, on account of the excessive weight of one wingj This freak was immediately styled The Sophomore Frat. This organization of bold, bad men first showed its daring and bowdacionsness by f5lII'I'bl1.T1hltQ' two cans of oysters for a banquet-cost 50 cents. fSee Gen. Swope for further particularsj They then hied themselves away to some deeply secluded spot where they extravagantly feasted, and then next ap- peared in the dread, dead dark of midnight at the Sem., where, by the sweet strains of the serenade, fAmerica, John Jones, Good-night, etc.:I they caused the night-mare that night, and insomnia ever since. Their next intrepid venture occurred this term. The very first night of the term, this valiant gang obtained some red paint Izalso, doubtless, purchasedl a11d went down to the campus about two olclock A. M., to paint the concretions in the monument northeast of the chapel. The light from their dark-lanterns suddenly flashed upon tl1e bronze cross which graces the spire of the Catholic church, the clock in the same steeple struck two , visions of Bensley filled the startled minds of this youthful 229 band, and they flew ensemble, leaving their work incomplete. This is all we have did up to yet. fMinutes of last meetingil Except to wear colors twice, assisted by Par Anderson and jay joy Richards.

Irl, Q -.'4 Ijifl ES, I have had a proposal, I'll admit, and though it was only in fun, it was a model, and I'1l give it to you, girls. We were returning to Monnett after the lecture, and were making a .-.., .2 dizzy record along the south side of Bill Street, in the famous slow race. We had been talk- ing of old times, old associations, and old friends. Deftly I turned the conversation upon old friends who were reciprocally dear to each other. I told him about that deep interest that centers in a girl who hasjust received a proposal, how we girls know intuitively when the grand event has taken place, and how we always regard her with awful admiration. Recollections of numerous proposals that he had dictated to lingering lovers in the past were recalled by my words, and I begged him to out- line one of them to me. He said he thought it a good evening to rehearse, and, oh, girls, I shall never forget what followed! We had just entered the grounds of the West School building. Whether it was because the moon coming out suddenly allowed me to see the look in his eye, or because I was thrilled by the sacredness of the place, or was exalted by the anticipation of what was to follow, I don't know, but my hand touching his arm began to tremble, my brain began to wl1irl, my heart to beat and to swell at each palpitation, as if about to burst. I had just enough mind left to lead him to that place where joe proposed to Lou last year, and he seated 1116 upon the wood-pile. Then he began, with a voice soft and low, he spoke of our long acquaintance. We had had good times together and our natures seemed adapted to each other. He had for a long ti111e realized that I was necessary to him, for at times when I had avoided l1i1n the whole world was to hi1n a dreary, weary waste. ,. He was sure I had avoided him and that had often made him feel that it was best he should avoid me. This had kept him from a decla- 233 ration before, and made him now tremble between hope and fear. But my kindness to him when we were together had been bright oases in tl1e waste of his life. It had caused his flower of hope to bloom. This last seemed to confuse him, and he twisted as if he wished he had left it out. Then he recovered com- posure and all was silent. I listened. The silent stars listened. Rocks, wood, trees-the very air listened. The murmuring water just south of us hummed accompaniment to his words. I felt him lean toward 1116, and again his words broke forth, I love you, he said, I love you. Here his voice began to be husky and to tremble. I could feel its vibrations beat against 1ny very heart. I love you, and I know that you love me. Look up, little sweetheart, and tell me you will be mine, to love, and honor and protect always. Ilooked up, and he had me hypnotized, and I fell oil' the wood-pile into his arms. Who wouldn't? 'QM 234 Extract from the Eranscript. Qsracmi. SUNDAY ED1'r1oN.j While the matrimonial Qinclinedj editor was attending a wedding 11ear Marryin' this week, His Satanic Majesty was mesmerized by Charlie McCaskill, and in tne trance concocted the fol- lowing: To wed or not to wed? That is tl1e ques- tion. Whether it were sadder to the senior heart to cry the tears of separation and climb alone the slimy base of fortunels hell, or by marrying, add a wife unto his obligations. To wed perhaps to separate, and add vain wealth unto the divorce courtls glutted treasury. Well,-I'1l pray the Lord to strike her with lightning if he donlt want me to marry her. We are told by Shakespeare in his rhythmic words, When spring appears a11d the little birds tune their cheerful lays to charm the ear of man, the young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love. Now poetry is the language of love, and where poetry abounds, there does love much more abound. Some significant phenomena attend the 2 eclipse of the moon this spring. '96 invited ,QS to gather around the festal board and munch colored gelatine and imbibe the sparkling cocoa. In tl1e course of the evening, a poet and two poetesses presented the feasters with a poem and two poem- esses. From among the seniors the Miller flofwejred forth in song, and the Milltsj 111ur- mured a refrain. The other poemess came from the junior ranks, and as the fair junioress spake forth the rhythmic measures, the heart of him who has us mesmerized beat in harmony. Thus does love, supplemented by poetic genius, strike the most refractory heartchords and cause them to vibrate in perfect unison with those of the kin- dred soul. Dunlap is also gone this week. He is taking training with his new camera. He has secured a subject at----. just here Mcflaskill was called to the tele- phone to answer a soft, Monnett voice, and the spell was broken.

Plzyszbllogzlgy is a study about your bones, stomach, vcrfebry. We have an upper and lower skin. The lower skin moves all the time, and the upper moves when we do. The body is mostly composed of water and almost one-half avaricious tissue. The stomach is a small pear-shaped bone situ- ated in the body. The gastric juice keeps the joints from creak- ing. The chyle flows np the middle of the back- bone, and reaches the heart, where it meets the oxygen and is purified. In the stomach, starch is changed to cane sugar, and cane sugar to sugar cane.

You are correct in suppos- ing that I wished you to act for me and in my interests as if you were the head of the school. The time was so short that I could not well do otl1erwise3 and allow me to add that I did so with entire confidence in the excellence ofyour judgment. Your experience has been such that I felt perfectly safe in putting tl1e responsibility on you. I believe that there are other excellent teachers' bureaus, but I did not feel like putting a matter of so much importance to me wholly in the hands of any other. If I had insisted on seeing the candidate or correspond- ing with him, I might have lost the opportunity to engage the gentle- man whom you have selected, and been forced to take an inferior teacher. I expect Mr. Mi-'s work will prove your judgment ofhim correct. His estimate of himself makes l1in1 strong where I am weak, and that is what I want. Yours respectfully, NoRwAI.x, CONN. E. H. WILSON.
