Even with this statement before them, some of the underclassmen may not understand fully the customary character of the page. To them we would say that it is intended to be analogous to the pre-contest predictions of an athletic coach, and a counterpart: of the usual Morn- ing after speech, when we have been licked. On the other hand we are quite sure that there will be found nothing objectionable in this book. The faculty board of censors has seen to that, and as a result everything that was in the least unlady- like has been expurgated,.and as a result we have turned out a book that is perfectly harmless, and one that may be placed in the hands Of every freshman without fear of any results, either good or bad. Here the thanks of the board is due the Transcript, the back numbers of which were freely consulted for data concerning scores, averages and athletics in general, also for the boost that appeared earlier in the year. Xafe are sorry that we could not requite this favor by publishing, for you, one or two of the articles that were handed in to the Transcript, but which were subsequently stricken out by your OW11 censors. ifVe had intended to publish these but after experiences similar to yours we lost our nerve', and so we can only promise tO continue our subscriptions for another year with a dollar and a quarter of the money that each member of the Bijou board receives for his or her services. With the other quarter of our money we will take a vacation and have a big time, or on more mature reflection we will buy dope to keep us from falling asleep while We burn the mid- night oil in an attempt to catch up with the class and pass our Finals. T THE Bowman. 15 Here's to the Faculty! Smiling Alumnus, quaking' Student, lfriend, dispense with dreams and fears and let us call your kind and indulgent consideration to the following examples of Art. Among' these masterpieces are the most skillfully prepared works of this book-skill was required. These pretend to represent our beloved Faculty. Uh yes! Certainly we have a Faculty, they are useful at Ohio Vlfesleyan. In this Art Supplement to the Transcript,' and our other literary attempts, their pictures add ornamentation-and space. In chapel, when Prexie is in town, they adorn the platform. In the class room, when assist- ants are scarce, they are the guiding stars to correct style and Phi Beta Kappa. ln social events, invited by Monnett Rules, they serve doubly as chaperones and mural decorations. So, Student, as you peruse these pages, strive to follow in the footsteps of our Faculty, and your stand-ini' shall be strong and your days long, in the halls of Ohio VVesleyan. 16 va 1 ff!

A very high educational standard is maintained and the requirements for the art of expression are sueh that only the most meritorious succeed in taking the diploma 1 l the school. While those who are sufficiently advanced to eoznprehenl the philosophy of expression may take class and private work in th: various courses otiiered, only those who have graduated from some college or university of recognized standing are eligible to graduation from the School of Oratory. llach course, of the work counts hour for hour on the baccalaureate degrees of the University. so that any student taking this work will be losing no time in working out his college degree. As a sanction of the quality of work done the University confers the post graduate degree of Master ot' Arts upon classical and scientific graduates for a post graduate course given exclusively in the School of Oratory. Our students enjoy a wide reputation in intercollegiate oratory and debate, having' held the continuous championship in the, various state and interstate Leagues with which we have been associated since the incorporation of the School of Oratory as a department of the University, while the fame of Ohio XVesleyan graduates as minis- ters, lawyers, statesmen, lecturers, public readers, and teachers in the leading schools and colleges throughout the country! is too well known to need comment. The School of Oratory seeks to do its part' in that educational scheme which will best ht men and women for greater usefulness in the higher walks of life. 25. ,f ' I ,- MI 'Kyiv 1 Ni? x Qi, AK U f' ff ' 05 H., Lf ' 1 V!

V School of Music The Ohio Wfesleyan School of Music is one of the departments of the University, with a far-reaching outspread of inlluence and, as music is recognized as one of the great arts, the School, with its present outlook, will have its place among the leading Conserva- tories of the State. 'lfhe new Sanborn llall, a generous gift of Mrs. tflason as a memorial to her mother will he, when completed, one of the iincst equipped music halls in this section of the country, and cannot 'fail to attract a large number of students. Each year the School offers an excellent opportunity for its students to hear programs given hy some of the leading artists of the country, and its concert course, as well as numerous recitals given by advanced students of the School, affords opportunities equal to those given in the larger cities. VVith its splendid corps of instructors, and with its thorough course of vocal and instrumental branches the School has hecome one of the leading departments of the University, and heing con- nected, as it is, with a college, its students have the advantage of literary training in connection with the musical course. The course of study is carefully arranged to hroaden musician- ship and special effort is given to prepare students for hoth teabching and concert work. With the present large enrollment and with its excellent equip- ments the School of Music has a brilliant outlook for the future. 83 J .r TL E Q2 .r J J J 'EU .r J .P J .r E 5 f62ZgJCf A14 .J .ENGL-ggaqjti JI I .The Practicality of a Business Education We venture the assertion that no young man today can enter a counting room and hope for success without special training. The young man who graduates 'from college and who enters business without going through a business school is enormously hampered in his progress in life. 'l'he lVl'onorable Philander C. Knox, Secretary of State in Presi- dent 'l'a'ft's Cabinet, in a recent interview gave a brief history of his life during his boyhood and early manhood days. Among other things he states the following: After l' was graduated from col- lege l obtained a clerkship in a bank. 'l remained in the bank one year, receiving 55700, and saving S5600 of that amount, which was enough for a course of Law Lectures and to pave my way into the profession. iii iii 'ii it it T sought a place in the bank to earn money, but better than money, T entered into the MOST VALU- ATZLE lEXl'fl2RllCNC'I'2 of my life. l learned how to meet business men. I learned all about bookkeeping and commercial papers, and how and' why notes and drafts go to protest. After beginning to practice law l never had to call on a bookkeeper to explain entries, trial balances, or the technical details of his accounts to me. l could study a set of books and understand them. livery young lawyer cannot be a clerk in a bank, but he SHOULD OBTAIN A THOROUGlsl KNOVVLlEl7Gl2 OF THE UNDERLYTNG PRIN- CIPLES OF UUSTNIESS AND llOOKlClE'lEl.'lNG. The more he knows about business and accounting the better. lf the principles of business and bookkeeping are good for a business man and an attorney, why are they not good for all pro- fessional men? The practicality of the art of bookkeeping is un- questioned by all who have ever given the subject careful thought. The work being done by the School of Business of the Univer- sity belongs to the highest standards of commercial training. The universal success of its graduates is proof of the foregoing assertion. The following persons have served in the capacity of assist- ants during the past two years, and to their efforts the success of the work accomplished in the School of Business has been largely due: Miss listella M. Hutchisson, A. llg l-lon. Harry XV. Crist, A.. ll.: lirank D. Steger, A. llg Paul L. Tlliss, ll. S., ll. P, Green- wall, Floyd L. Dorsey, and George Clausing. 37 4 ' . uausm:'!.-!,-1 , af .

Four years ago our fathers sent us forth from home to gain an education at this seat of learning. As soon as we arrived there was organized a class, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the pro- position that all men are created equal. We saw the beginning of student government in this institution and with it we have conducted our president along the first four years of his administration. For three years the class went on in peace and quietude, having a class meeting whenever occasion made a strong enough demand, and hold- ing an election when something was seriously in need of being elected. fllut not until the fourth year did we come to a full realiza- tion of the- fact that class life-as well as the kind that Longfellow talked about-is earnest. ln the middle of our Senior year we sud- denly realized that we were engaged in a great civil war, testing whether our class, or any class so constituted could long endure. We met upon the great battle-field of that war, where the heated com- bats of all our predecessors had been waged. We came to make our final reparation for all our misdeeds committed here. lt was alto- gether fitting and proper that we should do this. But in a larger sense we could not compensate-we could no further desecrate this ground. The poor men who struggled here have desecrated it far above our poor power to add or to detract. The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. lt is for you, the under- elassmen, rather, to profit by their mistakes and to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. As this class has witnessed four years of student government, it is for you to be here dedicated to the great task re- maining before you-that government of the students, for the stu- dents, by the students shall not perish from the earth. 44 MEMBERS OF CLASS OF 1909 Florence lVl:u'i:m Abbott.

Vin just wild about that kind 70 of lc Class of 1910 Three years ago the Class of Nineteen Ten appeared at the portals of these famed halls of learning and entered a career that has gratified the trustees, the faculty and, most of all, it is needless to say, the Class itself. Our members, our assurance, our abilities, our determination to achieve have made history, but, of more consequence than that, will make history, if the signs of the past can be read into the future. Before two weeks of school had passed we had made our mark. VVhat one of. us can forget the excitement of our first Hag rush, the wounded heroes, the exhilaration of success? After that in uninter- rupted succession we took the championships in foot-ball, basket ball, base-ball and track. Our treasury has been exhausted in expenditures for balls, bats, sweaters and other impediments for these victors. Look at them, Stauffer, Baker, Daniels, Charles, Le Sourd and their fol- lowers. A noble band to preserve our fame in the annals of the University. Wlien the Athletic Field was closed we were showing our superiority in Debate. Then, having no desire to become phenomenal or unpopular by too much success, we refrained from conquering in all the contests before us and have satisfied ourselves merely with winning the most important of them. For the benefit of our own spirits and the encouragement of the opposing classes we have fore- born. This easy achievement, of success has not entirely eliminated from us the spirit of struggle. We have had elections. It is safe to recall here two well organized factions that have preserved for us something of the pleasure of uncertainty and relief from monotony. Our safeguard against too strident wrangling between these elements is the harmonizing effect of our colors, olive green and gold, chosen with Freshmen -foresight. Another of our charms is versatility of geniusf' We excel in many fields. In point of scholarship we are unequalled. fb B K keys are even now anticipated for such as Elizabeth Crates, Enid Brown, Andy Martin, John Darr Cthough if by chance he is not honored by an invitation he has a promise of a somewhat binding character of a share in a key, co-ed size, which has been won by a member of the Lincoln Classj, and so many others that the generally exclusive society '71 will probably be pleased to break the one-eighth rule and Welcome half tl1e Class. We have brought reputation to the Oratory Department and Literary Societies by such golden-tongued debaters as Miohn. Our representation in athletics has made a dozen platform orators. To the credit both of our native ability and of the efforts of the English Department our assistance to the Transcript has taken it by leaps and bounds towards the goal of perfection. Notwithstanding this superior erudition our character does not exhaust itself in displays of scholarship and athletics. We have pa- tronized the Battalion with officers and beautiful sponsors. We llavfr had brilliant social successes. Can we fail to remember our Class parties and business meetings that were a combination of financial reports and refreshments? What class could not be versatile which had as a member the lnmdred-handed Baker, the successful j uggler of any known or hypothetical condition, situation or undertaking? We are proud to own as our fellow the manager of this corner of the Universe. What class was ever so unique as to present four men named Baker to the utter confusion of the Registrar's office and class room identification? Thus, in the minutest details We are distin- guished. All of this in only three years of our life. What of the future? History repeats itself. We can only expect that the deeds of our past will be the promise, of life beyond Commencement and the sheep skin. As we expected we hear loud cries of Conceit, unmitigated, in- sufferable conceit. No, you who are jealous, or you who are seekers after truth, it is only a more or less glorified statement of facts, and, if you eliminate all prejudices, you can realize humbly that superi- ority asserts itself.

Gamma Chapter was established at the Ohio Wfesleyan University on Christmas Eve, 1855. ln the fall of 1858, the depress- ing news came that Alpha Chapter at Miami had been forced to dis- band. ln this dilemma, the Delaware Chapter, hy reason of its seni- ority. succeeded to the leadership of the fraternity. The chapter per- formed its duties so admirably that in 1870 the Grand Chapter formally confirmed and ratihed its leadership and adopted a constitution which gave to the Delaware Chapter the title of The Alpha. ln 1868 the chapter acquired added influence in the university by the absorption of tl1e local chapter of Alpha lligamma, a fraternity of high rank in college. In 1882 a new system of government was established, taking the governmental powers from the hands of undergraduate members and conferring them upon a Grand Council. Under this new regime the VVesleyan chapter was issued a new charter under its old title, the Gamma. The passing years have seen great changes and de- velopments in Ohio Wfesleyan University and her attitude toward fraternities. llelieving the ideals of fraternity life could be better realized in a chapter house, the members of the chapter, in the spring of IQO4, secured their present beautiful home on ,North Franklin Street. The members of Gamma Chapter have ever striven to uphold the lofty standards and ideals of the fraternity. The record of her four hundred alumni attest to the value of their training at the hands of their alma mater. Their lives are a living testimony to the lofty ideals instilled by his fraternity into every wearer of the gold and blue. ln hoc signo vi11ces. 112 I X f 1 1 4 N m '!:. .L nr u 1 1 Beta Theta Pi' Founded July 4th, 1839 at Miami University Tl-USTA CHAPTER Founded 1853.

The six founders were Robert Thomson Drake, Robert Morrison, Ar- divan Rogers, John McMillan VVilson, Andrew NVatts Rogers and John NVolfe Lindley. Organization of the society spread to the South, West and East where it gained a place of substantial equality with the few fraternities that had already been established. So great has been its development and so conservative its growth that its chapters now number seventy-three, with an average membership of twenty per chapter and a total membership of nearly sixteen thousand for the fraternity at large. In every walk of life the wearers of the sword and shield have won distinction. Among the more prominent Alumni are Ex-Presi-- dent Benjamin Harrison, Ex-Vice President Adlai E. Stevenson, Gen. Fredrick Funstong Senators Blackburn, Vilas, Alleng justices of the U. S. Court, Wood, Kohlsoat and Phillips, College presidents, Benton, Ellis, McFarland and Ashley, literary men, Eugene Field, Ray Stan- nard Baker, WVilliam Allen NVhite. It is a source of great satisfaction to the members of the fraternity at large, that over seventy-tive per cent of her Chapters are in houses owned by themselves. The fraternity colors are argent and azure, the Hower, a white carnation, the Scroll and Palladium being the monthly journals published by the General Council. The Ohio Beta Chapter was founded at Ohio NVesleyan Univer- sity in 1860, and since then its total membership has numbered about three hundred. Among the prominent alumni from this Chapter are Guy Potter Benton, president of Miami, Prof. John Marshall Barker of Boston, Hon. Scott Bonham of Cincinnati, Dr. John Edwin Brown, Prof. C. S. Hoskinson and Consuls Anderson and Bright. 118 Phi Kappa Psi Colors- Pink and Lavender. Feeling the need of a fraternity which should hold up loftier ideals of character than those upheld by the fraternities then in ex- istence, Chas. P. T. Moore and VV. H. Letherman founded the'Phi Kappa Psi fraternity at Jefferson College in February, 1852. The founders, who were representative men of their college, in after life became respectively Judge of the Supreme Court of Wfest Virginia and Surgeon General of the United States Army. Largely due to the efforts of judge Moore, the fraternity has attained a wide extension. There are now forty-four active chapters and forty-one alumni associations, the total membership being close to l.?.,OOO. The Ohio Alpha Chapter was founded at the Ohio Wesleyan University in I86I, by Charles W. Breyfogle, L. M. liuchwalter, and John XV. Peters, and now has a roll of alumni of four hundred and ten. From a long list of distinguished sons these representatives are chosen: liishops McCabe and Walden of the Methodist Church: W. N. Brewster, the distinguished Chinese missionaryg John G. Wooley, the noted temperance advocate, Professors Clinton B.. Sears, formerly of XVest Pointg G. B. Merriman, of Rutgers, A. E.

During the past year the Chapter has suffered by the loss of several of our prominent alumni by death. Dr. Wm. H. Webster, of Dayton, Ohio, F., ll. Cherrington, President of Puget Sound Uni- versity. and Prof. Wm. D. Godman, the first graduate of Ohio Wes- leyan University and a very prominent man in educational circlesg these among our alumni have answered the final summons. 119 M Phi Kappa Psi FRATRES lN URBE R.

BAE was founded at the University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, on the ninth of March, 1856. Fourteen chapters were placed in the leading Southern universities before the declaration of war. At the outbreak of hostilities all chapters suspended operations and went almost en masse to answer tl1e call of the South. At the close of the struggle the scattered brothers commenced the work of reorganization, and a new era of expansion began, lt was not until 1883 that a charter was granted in Northern territory, but at that time a chapter was placed in Gettysburg College, Pennsylvania. ln 1888 Ohio A was founded at Ohio VVesleyan. Although Sigma Alpha Epsilon is the youngest chapter i11 Ohio Wesleyan, her members have always striven not only for the honor of Ohio Delta, but for a higher standard and stronger bond of fellow- ship among hcr seven sister chapters. 131 Sigma Alpha Epsilon C JH If J l3El1.'l'A lfounclccl 1 856 C HA PT FR lfslalmlisliccl 1888 Colors- Purplc and Gold I R.X'I'Rl',h TN lfXClFl.'I'.X'l'E znncs C.

Over two hundred men, and more than this number of women are enrolled in their respective societies. The literary society serves asa training school for those who represent the school in debate and oratory, but this is not its chief aim nor the most im- portant result of the work accomplished. The societies were, without exception, founded on the principle that there should be someplace. other than the class-room, where the student would be able to find training in the art of speaking fluently and clearly, thinking rapidly and logically, and such practice in parliamentary forms and usages as are prevalent in business and social organizations of the day. The societies at VVesleyan hold their meetings ou Friday evening, and aside from the benefits of entertainment afforded by the pro- gram comes the pleasures and benefit of social contact. This last is a feature more important in the case of the men of thc university than the women, since in the literary society alone the men meet in close and organized association. A spirit of friendly rivalry among' the societies of the l reparatory School is maintained by a debating league, in which the winner is picked in a series of inter-society debates. Representatives from the four upper societies meet in an annual Inter-Society Oratorical con- test, the winner representing the University in the lnter-Collegiate Contest. The interest shown in this branch of college activity is with but few exceptions of a very high order, and the splendid record of Ohio XVesleyan in debate and oratory testify as to the thoroughness of the work done. 148 9 'Cm Q. 0 mo wz:,LavAr1 ,V Y ' - 'zlifg-ii .Q -.-- 'rf-' '-L-3.-:'.-1,-4-N,-:Q 3 K fl' ' S I X -53535:--mg...,?:,..xQ . f NIIf'I5'r'I I 5'5iI?I W Q , -ff ' ' 14 ,f 9 r A ' ffjyl KL! , ' 4 ,ky , ' I 2.-'11 f.y' H 3 '1 3 X , A lfkfy xyxx Q, 1 1 Q w f , gnu , ff, JMFQM 'i k ,Q XWM i, . , w V X, ,1'!QU.'i uw X N V, I f ip: aff, xfgfr 7 I 'E I A NIKV.

I-Iigh as her ideals were and great as were her acomplishments even so have those of the present Amphictyonian been notable. NVith an existence covering the short period of only twenty- four years and established in a field where other societies had flourished long before her founders even thought of entering Ohio VVesleyan, Amphic stands today without a peer in attaimnents and honors won. Nine times have her orators won oratorical contests for her while upon every debate team which the university has sent out, her men have contended for l1cr honor. i The years of 1908-9 have by no means dimmed that record but on the contrary they have added lustre to it. In the inter-collegiate debates of 1908, Hargraves, Steen, Lacklen, Schatzman, Denney, East- erbrook, Gilruth, lVlc'Farland, Cartwright, Stoll, Parret and La Rue representing the interests of Amphic, won both first team debates and one second, while it is a significant fact that the only team to lose was the one the majority of whose members were not Amphic men. The year just closing saw ten of the fourteen debaters members of Amphic, Gilruth, Sockman, Ricketts. McFarland, LaRue, Leach, I. I. jones, E. R. Jones, Alford and NVeist. In the inter-society oratorical contest of 1908, Amphic men won both first and second place, Schatz- man being first with Lacklen a close second, the former also winning third place, in the inter-collegiate contest in Virginia. This is but a record of the past and Amphic is not done yet. She still has her motto, Ad Summam Nitamur , and the best is yet to come. NVith this as a guide and with a knowledge of the honors of the past, Amphictyonian looks forward to the future with no thought for failure but with the expectation and assurance that first place will still be hers among the literary societies of Ohio VVesleyan. 154 AD SUMMAM NITAMUR Chrestomathean Founded 1846.

Chresto's growth during this time, has been distinctly along literary and social linesg and her motto continues to be: The greatest possible good to the larg'est number of men. Chrcstomathean does not seek to produce a few brilliant literary stars, but she gives every man a fair. chance to prove his worth and to get the most. As a result, ability, manhood, congeni- ality, and friendship are at present the four fundamentals of Chresto- mathean Spirit and Success. During the past two years Scholarship and interest have,been primary requirements for membership. Hence Chresto men are leaders in every department of college life. Among them are: Debatersg Delta Sigma Rho and Phi lleta Kappa meng President of the Stu- dent Senateg Senior Lecture Course presidents: Transcript men: Y. M. C. A. leadersg Major of the battaliong the best athletes in the Universityg and other positions of scarcely less importance. During the last two years, Fifty-four per cent of Chresto men have been prom- inent leaders in College activity. Surely such factors indicate. life and vigor far better than the enumeration of the mighty men among Chrestomathean Alumni. Moreover, we would not forget the social life of this organization. Some have called us a fraternity. Others have said, that' there is not another society of men in the University, where all phases of College life is represented, that presents such good will and cordial fellowship to every member and visitor. There are no distinetionsg no classes. Once a Chrestomathean always a Chrestomathean, is 'the common opinion. y VVith such prevailing conditions too much' can hardly be expected from Chresto's future. May coming generations write her name, higher, brighter, and nobler. 158 7 1 n Prcsidvzz f, Vice Presidvnf, Cl'I'fI.C, SCcrc!c1l'y, C cnsor, Clmplnin, Treasurer, I-I. N. Fenton E. T. LcSourd S. M.

Gartner History of Zetagathean The Zetagathean Literary Society was founded on january 16, 1845, and is today the oldest society in the university. The first meeting was held in a small recitation room in old Elliott I-Iall and nine members answered to the first roll call. . On the records of the society may be found the names of over 2,600 alumni, who have gone out from the society and university into the larger society and class room of the world. To the following list of prominent alumni of Zeta might be added many less famous but no less successful men: Senator joseph B. Foraker, Bishop C. C. Mc- Cabe fdeceasedj, Bishop James XV. Bashford, llon. Frank S. Monnett, Hon. P. P. Mast, Rev. Dr. B. F. Dimmick Qdeceasedj, Professors W. F. Wliitloclc, H. M. Perkins, XV. O. Semans Cdeceasedj, E. T. Nelson fdeceasedj, VV. NV. Davies, R. T. Stephenson. These men as well as many others found on Zetais roll, 1'ealized, as do the present members of the Society, that permanent success is the result of being instead of seeming, and in the literary work of the Society the motto, Esse quam videre, has, even been a working principle rather than a meaningless Latin phrase. At present the membership consists of seventeen men, but with this comparatively small membership thorough and consistent literary work is possible. Two years ago fourteen Seniors received their diplomas from the society, and three. of these, Messrs. S. R. Dunham, J. V. Stone and VV. XV. Dietrich were awarded the three Taylor Theo- logical Scholarships. New men have taken the place of these men and the Society is now in a very good condition. Zeta is always well represented in all literary contests and receives her share of honors. VVe have every reason to believe that the future of this Society will not stiffer when compared with her past. 162 Athenian History In the year 1851, a group of enthusiastic young men, inspired by the hope of increasing the facilities for literary culture, met in the basement of the Old Chapel and formally organized the literary society. From which were turned out men, prominent in religious, educational, commercial and political life. The original founder of the new society was T. C. O'Kane, who has since become famous as a composer of Gospel hymns. About twenty men, all leaders in college activities swore fealty to Athens and the standard which they set soon caused the organization to be- come recognized as exclusive, in that, the society sought for the best men, intellectually and morally. It was in 1894, that due to various causes, Athenian formally adjourned. Upon the evening of September 15, 1906, alumni of the society met in Gray Chapel and re-affirmed the former constitution. Thisiwas affected through the efforts of Prof. Richard Parsons, an alumnus, and E. D. VanDeman, a student. Mr. VVm. McVance and I-Ion. T. R. Smith gave exceptional aid. Immediately the society be- gan to be recognized by the University. ,For the Hrst year the society met in the recitation room of Prof. Parsonsg but in June, i9o7, a hall was granted on the third floor of Gray Chapel. This has been beau- tifully decorated in green and gold. So much for Athenian! 163 Z l I ! 1 i I . 1 I :N i 1 x I! i Q 5 1 vf J w W 'I 5, 'w I I i I 1 s 1 1 E 2 Athenian Founded-1851-by T. C.

The motto of the society has been indelibly im- pressed upon the life and efforts of each member. Realizing that the end does indeed crown the work, each one has labored faithfully and earnestly. The measure of our success may be judged by the honors which have crowned our efforts. In debate, the society has held her own. Our oratorical record is unsurpassed. Since the or- ganization of the Preparatory Oratorieal Association in 1898, Cala Philo has eight times won First honors. For the past three years, she has each time won first place. Deriving new inspiration from victory, undaunted by defeat, we are steadily striving to attain our goal, perfection. Profiting from past experience, we are laying broader and deeper foundations for the future. One in hope, one in faith, one in love and devotion to.Cala Philo, as a family of brothers, we labor together and devote our energies towards achieving greater success, and towards maintaining -the honor of our Society.

Praise to the noble dozen, who seeing the need of literary work, organized Lyceum and formulated her constitution. Thanks to Professor Clara Conklin for our motto, and to our late beloved Professor I. H. Grove for the name. For twenty years Lyceum has bravely overcome every- diffi- culty under the inspiration of her motto, Not who, but what. The delinition of the end in view and the loyalty of her members have brought her out of the embryonic state into one of prominence. A long list of illustrious names shows with what success she has at- tained her many victories. Among the honored ones of recent years may be mentioned Homer Longfellow, Prof. L. C. Marshall, H. L. Rogers, and DeLorma A. Morrow. Leaders in all lines of work at one time have been members of our society. Our success past and present makes us feel confident of the future. It is our pedestal upon which we get a larger view and is the foun- dation stone upon which we build. We are striving to do our utmost to developi the spirit of true manly independence, for it is Not who, 3 but what,' that counts. 171 Xxx , Q 'XSFX NX X 'LN N YN x M X X Y ' 'Vix Q, l, N gr, :QF ' N C'-K -'- wx -- .,:-,, 5' '- X Ne, - 1 ' X skk 5 X ff ,rf g. ,lx .Q , ' , UN -. -1 5 . ., x - x s f- LVN i 'Q x.,g4lA - X 3 'ins .N . .QR .LX-x x mi X x X X 'Nm , ,, 9 Q ,f'7f?7 ' '9 Q 1 J f ,X 1 A .,,7 Q I, 1 -jg . 457-QX X in X IV, Xl 'Zh A , Y- f 1 fx f nizfffiifnW:Lg:?:17' X f .

MON NETT DAY M onnett Day Across the campus, a line of white Is slowly wending its way, While girlish voices, gladsome and bright, Are welcoming spring this day. Around the grassy knoll they meet, And the queen of the day is crownedg About her feet, in homage sweet, With flowers they strew the ground. The ceremonies now commence. Which last till set of sun, Each class, with pride, its stunt presents 'Mid laughter, noise and fun. Upon the lawn they serve a lunch, As the sun is beginning to set, And the girls of the Hall, a happy bunch, Give three lusty cheers for Mlonnett. 197 ,T N- Hr I' 44m , ax z j -4 I l 5 f 5 ' ' ' 4 I - .1 - f I 'B ' A , I il '4 K V J - .L ,,. 1. qi Fr- ' ' -- ' Z: -,1 Q5,2 ff'?'

In the spring of IQOO the first advisory committee was elected according to the revised co11stitution and given power to choose a General Sec- retary for the following year. bl. F.. Baldridge, a graduate of the class of 1900 was elected and under his direction, the Association grew and more nearly accomplished its prime ohject, namely, to promote the growth of Christian character, helpful fellowship, and aggressive Chris- tian work, and to lead men to devote their lives to Jesus Christ, not only in distinctly religious callings but also in secular pursuits. Eight secretaries have served in this capacity since 1900 and all have tried to make the Association an organization indispensable. to a well rounded college life.

A glance over available files will show that our college paper has improved with age. This year The Transcript has reached the high water mark of its excellence. The best and spiciest series of papers since the foundation of the American Student in 1867, is being received by three hundred more subscribers than at any other time in the forty-two years' history of the publication. Also the outer appearance of tl1e paper has been greatly improved by a snappy two-color cover design. We have reason to expect even greater things of the Transcript of the future, for since the establishment of the competition basis, and the granting of editorial credit by the faculty, Transcript stock has taken an upward bound among those of a literary bent, The college paper has much to do with the shaping of student opinion, and it is safe to say that The Transcript of the future will continue its healthy existence, leading year by year to a broader usefulness and a more genuine worth. , 218 hio eslegzm .....?fflFZ3C iPf 909' OH!

The lland has over forty 1l1C1lllJC1'S at present writing, with good prospects for additions in the near future. The first meeting of the Student Volunteer Union of Central Ohio, which is made up of the various bands from Central Ohio Colleges and Scminaries, was held i11 Delaware in the lfall. lt was a success in every way, and an increased interest in foreign missions is looked for as a result of the convention. Our University may well be proud of her record on the foreign field. She has given her sons and daughters ungrudgingly, and they have represented her well. Some of the ablest of those who have stood resolutely in that far flung, thinly ranked battle-line have come, from these halls. VVc students of this day have a record to uphold and a call to obey, which those who have gone before have left us. livery man and woman should consider this question well. NfVe are at a crisis period, and the Church is depending on our colleges to send out 1nen and women to meet this crisis. Strong, virile Chris- tians are wanted, and indeed must be had. Students of old VVesleyan, consider the needs, and place your life where it will count for the most. LIST Ol' Ml C. ll. ,Dare ll. M. llaker l-l. C. .llayliss C. llernhardt A. Gwendolin llond J. l'l.

Denney, eight students of the University met in Room 13, University llall, to discuss the advisability of such an organization. Those present. who became the Charter members of the organization, were Misses Floy P. Cameron. Irene Disney, Florence M. Rice, Carrie Thomson, and Messrs. George NV. Drown, F. T. Cartwright, James ll. Denney, S. G. Schrimshaw. Mrs. D. L. Williaiiis, Corresponding Secretary of the VVoman's Home Missionary Society, and the Rev. I. Tfl. Fitzwater, D. D., Secretary of the Board of Home Missions and Church Extension, were present and spoke upon the needs of the Home Field and the assistance such an organization as the one proposed would be in carrying on the worle. A Committee was appointed to draw up a form of organization and Constitution, which were adopted at a later meeting. Since that first meeting weekly meetings have been held during the college year. The membership has increased in one term from eight to twenty- four. Among the speakers at the regular meetings have been Miss Lucy D. jenkins, Mrs. D. L. VVilliams, Miss Rhoda Sigler, and Dr. I. H.

The organizers of this society recognize learning not as an end in itself but as a means which finds its consummation in the power of intelligent, logical and forcible address. The society was organized April 13, 1006, at Chicago, by repre- sentatives of the largest Middle Weste1'11 universities. Its origin in these institutions is significant, for it is generally conceded that amateur debating and oratory has nowhere reached a higher standard than in the universities of the Middle West. The society has had rapid but conservative growth and now has a chapter in each of the following fourteen universities: Michigan, Minnesota, lowa, VVis- consin, lllinois, Chicago, Nebraska, Virginia, Missouri, Indiana. Northwestern, Syracuse, George VVasl1ington and Ohio Wesleyaii. A charter for a chapter of A 21 P was granted to Ohio VVesleyan in May, 1907, Ohio VVesleyan being the only successful applicant of twenty-three colleges. The chapter at Ohio NVesleyan numbers some Hfty-six members. Achievement in debate and oratory in the past history of the institution, has been-recognized by the society and it is intended to exist as an incentive to further effort in this branch of college activity. 225 Phi Beta Kappa ETA CHAPTER OF OHIO OFFICERS Prcszticut, Professor Hiram M.

ELECTION OF UNDERGRADUATE MEMBERS. At the regular October meeting of tl1e Chapter the Executive Committee presents an eligible list containing' the names of all candidates for the baccalaureate degree of the University who have attained full Senior classification, who have been in attendance not less than six college terms, and whose grades to date would entitle them to high honors as defined by the University. These names are presented in thc order of scholastic rank as determined by the Executive Committee on the basis of the University records. From this list members are elected, the number so selected not exceeding seven. 'l'he new members are selected in the order of scholastic rank, except that any person may be declared ineligible by the ballot of the Chapter upon the basis of moral character. Five unfavorable ballots renders any candidate ineligible. At the regular May meeting of the Chapter an eligible list is prepared upon the basis of moral character by balloting upon the names of all candidates for graduation. Five unfavorable ballots renders a candidate ineligible. From -this eligible list the Executive Committee selects new members of the Chapter, the number so selected, together with the members elected in October, not exceeding one-eighth of the membership of the graduating class. In this election members are selected in the order of scholastic rank as determined by the records of the Universityg and no person is selected whose rank for the course does not entitle him to scholarship honors in the University. No student is selected who has not been in attendance six college terms, with the exception of students in attendance not less than three terms and attaining high honor grades as defined by tl1e University. 226 Evhatv , I Magik 27' 11 ,,, Mi ml.

It is true that the success of her teams has not always been the very best, but our record compares favorably with that of any of the smaller colleges of the Middle West, and we doubt if there exist many institutions where so large a percentage of the men are engaged in athletics. With the addition of the john Edwards gymnasium to our athletic equipment, there have been opened up unlimited possibilities for par- ticipation in this very essential branch of undergraduate training. It has been the privilege of the writer to visit several Ohio colleges at times when they have been engaged in athletic contests. In most cases the number of men using the athletic fields and gymnasiums was limited only by the size and accommodations. This seems to be the case at Wesleyali. We are fortunate, however, in having an ath- letic field that compares favorably with any in the state, having two gridirons and two diamonds, besides ample space for tennis courts, several of which have been installed. The gymnasium is, without a doubt, the most commodious and completely equipped in Ohio. It is easy to see then, that with an equipment that would easily serve for a thousand men, the six hundred men students of Wesleyaii are enjoy- ing a participation in athletics such as is denied the men of many of our less fortunate sister schools. Besides the regular Hvarsityl' teams that will be spoken of later, class base-ball, foot-ball, track and basket ball teams are organized at the beginning of the year, and the men are spurred on to some standard of excellence at least, by the series of games to determine class cham- pionships, and by the fact that class teams are regarded as the sources from which varsity material is drawn. The inter-class track-meet in which the teams of the four college classes and the academy team get 238 together in an indoor contest and settle the championship, is one of the most interesting of the class events of the year, and tl1e records made are often not far behind those of college teams. In these various activities are included by far the greater number of the male students of' the university, and of those that are not in class athletics it is safe to say the majority are members of college teams or are trying outv on the varsity squads. In addition to the above, a series of inter- fraternity basket ball games are played each winter- and a series of base-ball games in season. The system of inter-class and fraternity athletics just outlined is of recent origin, and as yet has not had time to produce the results that are confidently expected, although the increased interest in ath- letics in general, has given a great impetus to the various inter- collegiate contests of the year. No school can have winning teams unless the students are interested in athletics, and students become interested much more readily when participation for all is made possible. There is neither space nor demand to dwell upon coaches and the coaching system here, but merely to note the coming of the new coach, Nr. St. John of Wooste1'. Leave of absence has been granted Mr. Rickey for 1910, and the coaching will be in the hands of St. John. As a coach Rickey is without a superior in the state. Seldom it is that one man masters so thoroughly the principles of three branches of athletics. Rickey's long experience in base-ball has made him a coach par excellence, and a lively interest in basket ball together with his faculty for mastering quickly the fine points of any game, enabled him to turn out l1l,I908 a championship team. In foot-ball, under what has been popularly termed the new rules, Rickey found his niche. The open style of play giving chances for shifts, long passes and fake plays of various kinds, aliforded unlimited possibilities for his special bent. The success of many of Riekey's plays is attested by their adop- tion by several Ohio coaches during the season of 1908. Mr. St. John of Wooster has been equally successful, and to him is due the credit of Wooster's rise to her present position in Ohio inter-collegiate athletics. Mr. St. Iohn may be assured of the glad hand when he arrives, and a loyal support during his stay at Wesleyan. 230 One of the latest uses to which the gymnasium has heen put is a meeting place for athletes from the .leading high schools of the state. This practice is hound to have beneficial results in the near future. lt is a known fact that many high school students attracted by athletics make their choice of college accordingly, and in a few years there should he in existence well developed colonies of pros- pective Ohio Wfesleyan students in every high school of the state, regardless of its location. Wfe are glad for the numher of Wesleyan students interested in athletics, glad for the interest and support given to these activities by memhers of the faculty and the faculty as a whole. VVe are also glad for the loyal support and inspiration afforded by the women of the university and are living in daily hopes that some one will hurry along with a few thousands which he or she will leave for a gymnasium to he huilt on the Monnett campus. -,,.-Q-f .. .... -nr. v q ,. r. . -fx , .y I -... ,Wai 4, ', .

Such is the record for the foot-ball team in 1907. The sum total of ISI points to 82 of th: opposing teams tells a story of hard playing and unyielding endeavor that has seldom been surpassed on a Wlesleyan gridiron. The year 1907 marks the passing of Jimmy Rike, the best foot- ball player that has donned the moleskin for Vtfesleyan in recent years, and with him went Stroup, Cameron and Schweitzer, all of whom had been towers of strength in NVesleyan foot-ball for four years. These four men will long be remembered by foot-ball enthusiasts in Delaware, and in the other colleges of the llig Six. Nike was perhaps the most conspicuous figure in Ohio foot-ball in the last ten years. He was known all over the state, and by tl1e brillianey and steadiness of his playing he won for the VVesleyan aggregation the somewhat misleading appellation of the One Man Team . The times whe11 Rike failed to make a substantial gain, when called on to carry the ball, were few indeed, and often he carried the leather forward when no one else was able to make any headway whatsoever. Next to Rike, Stroup was perhaps the best known of the veterans. Stroup's line bucking was hard and fast, and if his gains were not always of length he never lost ground. The great strength of Stroup and Rike was long the mainstay of our defence. Time and again line bucks of opposing teams were stopped by these, two backs hurling themselves into the gap, or by low hard tackling under heavy inter- ference. Une of Stroup's characteristics was his coolness at all times during the game, especially when called on to punt. lrlis punting was good, averaging about fifty yards, and was surpassed only by Gibsons of State. Austin's playing at guard corresponded to that of Stroup in many particulars. Starring was not a part of his routine, but he played with a vigor that brought results. Enthusiasm, supported by a willingness to work hard, was the ruling principle of his work both in practice and games. The work of Cameron as utility man is deserving of mention. Cameron knew the game from beginning to end and was at home behind the line or in the line, as was shown by his work of 1906 when he and Hutt Dorward used to worry the ends and tackles on defense. In 1907 Cameron worked at an end, at half and at quarter. 2114 POTTSY STAUFF At end he was a splendid man to smash interference. He captained the team on two occasions, when Rike was unavailable on account of injuries, and here showed his rare ffood judgment and knowledge of the game by his generalship. Being very light for a half, Cameron worked under a handicap but with a tenacity and aggressiveness that made up for the lack of beef, and he by no means weakened the character of left-half as the chief ground-gaining section of the team. I'Iutchinson deserves recognition as one of the best defensive men that Wesleyaii has had in the last five years. The gain made through lflQutch's side of the line were few and of a minor character. On the tackle-aroundu play Hutchinson alternated well with NVeaver, and because of the size and strength of this pair this was one of our most effective, plays during the 1907 season. In tackling Hutchinson seemed to excel, being able to stop many line plunges unaided, and nearly always the man he tackled fell for a loss. The work of Potts at right-half was of a high order throughout the season. I. Fred was accustomed to putting up about the best interference of any man onithe team, and he never hesitated to leave 245 his feet when an opposing man had to be, removed. Xvlllllfilll this splendid interference many of Rike's gains through the line, just outside the tackle, would have been impossible. At backing 'up the line and open field tackling Potts was very effective, and his work during the season justly merited him the eaptaincy for 1908. The work of VVeaver is always pleasant to review. When carry- ing the ball for substantial gains in tackle-around plays or handling the forward pass VVeaver was always there with the goods. Tackling behind the line has always been one of .I2ueko's points of excellence. and the holes that he' frequently tore in the opponent's line on offense account largely for the good gains on line bucks by Stroup and Potts. Evans at center, and Stauffer at quarter, each played their first season of college foot-ball. Evans at center proved to be a wise choice for that position. His passing was strong and accurate at all times and he kept cool at critical moments. His good work in handling oniside kicks and forward passes also deserves mention. Stauffer was placed in a hard position in having such a mnnber of plays to keep in mind. Ile is to be pardoned if his geueralship was not all that was expected of him' in 1907, for it would be difficult indeed for a man to perfect himself in Rickey's plays in one season if he played some other position even, much less at the helm in the position of quarter-back. liven with his inexperience, Stauffer, was a good quarter and one of the best ground gainers of the season. His work on running back punts was gilt-edged, and when on defense he saved many a score by his splendid open field tackling. llaker and Van Sickle being guards wereburied where. but little of their work could be seen. Both played hard, consistent foot-ball, Baker following the ball with alertness, and Van Sickle always coming to the force when there was blocking or line-tackling to be done. On the whole W'esleyan's work, was characterized by speed and good team work, and the season was in many respects a success, as the following summary of scores will show. Ohio VVesleyan, 30-Delaware High, O Ohio XfVesleyan, 39- Wittenberg, o Ohio Wesleyan, 5- Wooster, I2 Ohio VVesleyan, 6-Ohio University, o Ohio NVesleyan, I6-Otterbein, O Ohio Wesleyan, I2-Alllllllll.

Captain Potts, Evans, Baker, XVitcraft and Stauffer were on hand from last year, and with them as a nucleus a team was built up that broke even on its schedule. The Captain played the best game of his career and was the choice of two sporting editors of Ohio for left half on the All-state team. Cordray and Pool, two men who were new to foot-ball at the beginning of the 1908 season, developed rapidly and before the seasoi was half over they were playing' their positions like veterans. Patton and Le Sourd who worked in the back field with Potts did exceptionally good work for their Hrst regular season of varsity ball. The former could be counted on for four or five yards almost any time and his punting was the best for several years. Patton's height and reach was very useful in getting' the ball away on forwarl passes, the lengthy one being able to throw the pigskin as far as most men could kick. Being new to a back Field position Patton was not very fast, but he showed his real worth to the team in backing up the line and playing defensive tackle. , I.eSourd's work was of a finished character from the beginning to end. At right half he was active in forming' interference and tack- ling. Le Sourd is fast. has plenty of nerve. and with another year's experience would undoubtedly have developed into one of the best halfs in the State. 'l'he work of Jewell, Knaur, Day and VVhitcraft was good and consistent till'0llQ'ilOllt the season. ,lewell made himself solid with th: students when he came all the way from his home to play quarter in the Case game and he played the position to a frazzle that day. lfnaur and Day will be on hand in 1909 to give an account of them- selves, and will undoubtedly imp1'ove with another year's experience. Whiteraft was in the game every minute and played. his end as if he had been holding' it down for years. The work of the old men, Stauffer, Evans, llaker and XVeaver has not been taken up in detail for their work is too well known and ree 2-17 membered by the student body. The shifting of Evans to right tackle and Baker to center proved to be a change for the better as Baker is fully as good at center and Evans filled the bill at tackle which was held down in 1907 by I-Iutchu. To say that the 1908 team underwent hard luck' would be putting it mildly but NVesleyan supporters are willing to forget every defeat and pin their pride to the scarlet and jet for the way each one of her men worked during the games of the season, the scores of which are given below. Ohio Wesleyan, 15- Wittenberg, o Ohio Wesleyaii, o-Kenyon, 20 Ohio Wesleyan, 22-Wooster, 6 Ohio Wesleyan, 28-Otterbein, o Ohio Wesleyan, 9-Ohio State, 20 Ohio Wesleyan, II -Denison, 4 Ohio NVesleyan, o-Case, II Ohio Wlesleyan, o-Miami 24 248 ,.

THE 1908 TEA M Base-Ball 1908 The number of games scheduled for 1908 was thirteen and the report was abroad, at the time of schedule making, that Dame Fortune would steer clear of the new athletic field for such a flagrant viola- tion of her'proprieties. Whether it was to see Daniels steal bases, Baker throw men out at second or Stauffer cover an acre of territory, Dame Fortune forgot to sulk and came and took up her abode with the Wesleyan rooters in eight of the thirteen games. To begin with, the Professor of Physical Education at Otterbein University came to Delaware with a young army of ball tossers only to return with a fifteen to two score unfavorable to Otterbein. Next came the Ohio Medics in a game that was remarkably clean and fast for the second game of the year. After a close fight for eight innings Wesleyan nosed out a victory in the ninth, 'the final score being five to four. The game with the Ohio Mfedics was unimportant to the students from the standpoint of college rivalry, but it gave to the Wesleyan supporters a chance to see what kind of work Rickey was to turn out. The snappiness which characterized the later playing. and a suggestion of the heady work that was a feature of the later season came to light in this game, which, however, was one of the most interesting of the year. ' lf we were to continue giving a somewhat rambling account of each game the next task would be to relate the ten to three victory Cvictory for Ohioj that was pulled off at Athens, so a change of tactics now takes place and we speak in general. Suffice it to say that this with one other are the only instances of the season where the scarlet and jet was bested by more than one run, the other four contests being lost by a narrow margin after a hotly disputed game. It was a notable fact that this first defeat of the year did not dishearten Rickey's bunch of ball tossers for three more enemy's sealps were annexed before Oberlin made eight scores to Wesleyan's seven. The memory of this defeatdid not remain with us long for on the following Saturday the tables were turned and Oberlin took the small end of a seven to six score. In the remaining five games Wittenberg and Kenyon were decisively defeated, the latter being a shut out for Kenyon with a total of eight tallies in the Wesleyan column. Case took one for a starter soon after the Kenyon game, 252 ow-x,b fl?- l ,K ,'s - . f,Q -, ,X X , an ,V f-, K N t t. it U v tg .. - 5 yt as .4 fra, 5.

Lfnion and VVooster following suit in order that the team of old grads,' which was to play during eoinineneeinent week might have something on which to issue dope. On the whole the season was a success. The losses with the exception of two were by narrow margins and these games as well as the ones which appeared to VVesleyan's credit were characterized by good hitting, fielding that was replete with sensational stops and throws, and fast and intelligent base running. The pitching during the season of 1908 was not as strong as in former years although both Godclardand VVood improved as the season advanced. The receivership for the twirlers alternated he- tween Baker and Daniels, the former going to third, when the season was about two-thirds gone, where his good whip was greatly in demand. Daniels, both at the backstop position and on the inheld. played a consistent and sure game, and his batting was of a high order throughout. At first Evans started the season with a flourish and kept the pace until late in the season when an injury of the knee interfered slightly with his eH'ectiveness. Second base was handled in good style by Stauffer. The fact that Stauffer was fast 253 on his feet and' in good condition during the major portionof the season enabled him to cover a great deal of ground, and he has to his credit several phenomenal stops of fast grounded balls headed for right, besides a record of good consistent base-playing and running At short Daniels opened the season in fine style, his quick throw being especially efifective. XVhen transferred to the cateher's position his wing stood him in good stead and our opponents for the season of 1908 have not many stolen bases to their c1'edit, from either llakcr or Daniels. I.e Sourd at third met with the same difficulties that besets most men who were new to the third sack. It was some time before he could change his customary outfield throw to the particular line throw needed so often at third, but in the closing games of the season he fielded clean and threw well. During the season of loot? the outfield changed from time to time, but it was always full of snap and ginger under the leadership of Captain l'otts at center. .l'otts was comparatively sure on all long drives and he went through the season with a good fielding recoixl in add'tion to securing the highest batting average. liekley did not make his appearance till late in the season, but was in good time to make the first home run on the new field and to make several nice catches during the same and succeeding games. Charles, Putnam and Durbin played the right field successively. -Charles was valuable for his throwing, l'utnam for his sureness and Durbin for his base- running. . XVhen we consider that at the beginning of the season only three old men were left from which to build a team, and that our schedule included the best teams of the state, we feel that the season was sn:- eessful to a high degree. Coach Rickey demonstrated that inside base-ball can be drilled into college players to some extent at least and the number of sacrifice hits and earned runs testify to the good team work and knowledge of the game. On the whole the willow was much in evidence during the season of 1908, although only two men batted within the charmed 300 limits, X'Vood batting over 600 for eight games and Potts making the re- markably good record of 379 for the total number of games. i Call for spring practice is being sounded as the llijon goes to press and the prospects are bright for a championship. Captain llaker enters on his fourth year of college base-ball and brings to the captain- ship experience and ability, and with Evans, Le Sourd, Daniel, Stauffer and Goddard of last year's aggregation, IQOQ should prove to he even more auspicious for VVesleyan than 1908. 254 ll , 4 P ' v THE 1937 TEAM THE 1908 TEAM ooooooo 2222222 Basket Ball A 1909 There is a certain sadness of spirit that makes itself felt about the university as We view the basket ball history of the year. The Fates have been against us. In the first place the team suffered greatly when Stroup, Cameron and Schatzman graduated. Such men as those cannot be taken from a team without breaking it up in an almost irretrievable manner. The loss was felt, but Evans, Ilorsman, Charles and Stauffer were counted on to form the nucleus of another championship squad. Horsman failed to come back to college, Charles left school, and Stauffer because of his bad knee was unable to go into the game with his old time rush. The subs of the previous year were whipped into shape, however, and expectation moved up the scale. The season opened with a holiday trip through southern Ohio, Indiana and Tennessee. Five games ,were played, out of which our team won three, from the Cincinnati Gymnasium Club, 40 to 39, New Albany, Indiana, 42 to 27, and the Ramblers of Chattanooga, 28 to 16, an excellent beginning considering the shortness of the practice and the carliness of the season. The Varsity Club of Dayton handed out a defeat of 48 to 41, while Nashville University repeated the courtesy by treating the team to 25 to 23. At home the Ohio Nedics proved a poor practice game even for they could make only I7 points to our 89. Two games away from home proved disastrous. Qlliram, on her small lloor, quite readily ran up 65 to 25 against us, and then Oberlin could do no better than play us 4I to 26. In a rough game with some foot-ball tactics, Kenyon was unable to hold her own against XVesleyan on our floor and was defeated by a comfortable margin of 27 to 17, a rather pleasing fact in view of the outcome of our foot-ball game with them in the Fall. VVesleyan has heretofore been able to keep any team from win- ning on her floor but the tables turned and we lost to Wfooster, Rochester, Denison, State and Oberlin in rapid succession. A game with Denison in which she again defeated .Riekey's men closed thi. season. The men did their best beyond question. They simply went up against better teams and upon no one rests any bla1ne for the results. The season brought out two pleasing features among others. We were game losers, and we developed a better supporting spirit as characterized by rooting than has been shown in Ohio VVcsleyan for some time past. 3 3 U., 41 --Varsity Club, Dayton, 48. O. W.

Rickey has a faculty of getting at all there is in a man in the way of ability and effort and making it count in the way of results. The men who made up the team were ' ' f ' O. an all star crowd and throughout the season piled up honoi O1 W. U. The gods were propitious giving us nine games out of the thir- teen played. The four games lost were with able teams, on foreign lloors and east no discredit upon our men. The season opened with a game with the Columbus Mutes, a merely practice game with very little of really good playing being shown. The game was colorless and served purely to open the season's program and to break the monotony of constant practice. The score, 47 to 18, while making a good showing told very little of the worth of our team. There was a little more real work in the second game, played against our Cleveland end of the university. Here too we were able quite readily to hand a 28 to 20 defeat to the medics. The putting in of our subs in the second half caused our score to be as low as it was. 259 A little disappointment sifted through the VVesleyan ranks when the 1'eturns from onr hrst game on a foreign tloor brought the news that Denison had won Sl to 29. The game was close throughout and only XVOII in the last minute WllCll a llCW Denison forward droppel in two baskets. This game was followed hy the first real game of our home schedule, that with Kenyon, which ended after a sharp contest in a 42 to IQ victory for ns. The spell of victory was rather short- lived for tl. S. U. proceeded to give ns a taste of the bitte1's of life when our team we11t to Columbus on the following Friday. There was good spirit and State simply ontplayed us 33 to 18. Our work improved in the second half and there was a general thought of wait till State comes np to Delaware! Somehow there was no rise in spirits after the next game, that with VVooster, in which the Presbyterians scored 37 points to onr 20 in a rough hnt clean game. In the last half onr men got down and made things count, a promise of what would happen when NVooster came to Delaware. lleginning with an easy victory over Kentucky State of Sl to I3 our team struck a winning pace at which they captured six out of the seven games played. the one game lost being with Allegheny, a team practically invincible on their home tioor. Denison a11d Case were given sound thrashings. On the 22Cl of February Colgate came an'l helped enliven the evening for the big audience in the gymnasium. 28 to I7 for llS was the story they carried away. lint the sweetes' stories of all were the tales of how our five gave Ohio State and Wooster htilCll'S.U After a clean, Fierce play of forty minutes State was forced to accept a 37 to 30 defeat. And then Wooster. Wooster had a lingering suspicion that the championship was hers. She came with the intent of making it sure. She went away saddened bv its loss. The game was of the closest kind, as only two teams tillel with Fierce determination can play. lloth teams showed star work, an'l the result of 16 to T2 was hard earned, The close of the season justified the brightest evpectations of the opening. A team like ours of this year is one that will continue a powerful incentive to future X'Vesleyan basket ball squads. U. VV. ll.. 47 --tfolumhns Klntes. 18. O. XA . l'., 28--O. XV. L'.

It is not enough that there be a place for spring training, but an adequate indoor equipment is absolutely essential from the very nature of track work. Unlike other branches of ath- letic sport, track contests demand something more than a superficial training. We are not arguing for superficial or spasmodic training in foot-ball, base-ball or basket ball, but are calling attention to the fact, that track men cannot be developed by a single season's training, but they must spend time every day throughout the year on the track. For this reason it is essential that a school engaging in meets with other colleges should seefco it that the equipment of the gymnasium includes the necessary fixtures for the indoor running. This has been admirably taken care of at Wesleyaii. The running track of fifteen laps to the mile is in every respect the best indoor track in any of 264 the colleges of Ohio. This is shown by the number of records that have been lowered on the Wesleyan track from time to time. The in- door records for the quarter, half and mile by relay were all made on the Wesleyaii path. Why then has our track team failed to demonstrate its superiority over other Ohio teams? Men! That is thc explanation. Vlfesleyan needs more men to become interested in track. Of the men that have made up the teams of 1907 and 1908 only good can be said. Often in dual meets there has been only one man entered for WVesleyan in the event, so to begin with our chances take the short end of a three to one oddsg but notwithstanding, the showing made in 1907 was good. Captain Allyn's work in 1907 was not up to the previous high standard of 1905 and 1906 because he did not train so conscientiously. 265 Only at times did he show flashes of the speed that put him in the lead of Ohio sprinters in the beginning of his college course. lt is hard for a man to keep his work up to the standard set by Allyn in his Sophomore year, but his occasional brilliancy during the season of 1907 showed that the speed was still there. The most consistent track man that VVesleyan had on her team was jackson. jackson was a consistent trainer, and kept in good con- dition every minute. That he knew track athletics thoroughly could be seen by any one that watched him run in a race. Jaekson's opponent had always to take into consideration the fact that Jackson was heady in his running, and that with him it was a science. In meets jackson commonly won out over men with lower records than his, simply be- cause he studied their tendencies and kept these in mind during his race. No less consistent than jackson, but with slightly less native ability, Evans comes next in the final summing up of the work done. Evans was a worker and in all the runs from the loo yard dash to the quarter mile and relay work Evans kept plugging away until he finally became our standby on the dashes, and it was no more than his just desert when the captainship made vacant by the ineligibility of Allyn fell to him. Staufifer, Daniels and Roads also worked hard and made good records for the season. Stauffer and Daniels were somewhat hampered by the fact that they were playing varsity base-ball through the spring, as the two lines of sport proved to be a severe tax on their strength. Notwithstanding this they both starred, Stauffer running the memorable third quarter in the relay at the Rig Six and Daniels lowering the record for the quarter mile but a few feet behind Millions who set the new record for Ohio State. Pool displayed about the best form of any of the field events men, always hurling the shot well over the thirty mark at each throw. Penuywitt imp1'oved greatly at pole vaulting and in the last indoor meet tied Kimball of State for the indoor record of IO ft. 6 in. .1909 Wlieii the men reported for fall training in T908 things looked blue for a track team prospects. Allyn, Evans and jackson the prin- cipal point getters had graduated and the new material was unknown. ln two meets, already held this year, we have been worsted by State and in the other we won from Oberlin by a very comfortable score. The meet with Oberlin was gratifying in every way. Not only was the score on the right side, but the team performed with an ease and confidence that bespoke long and faithful training. Austin, as a half-miler, was uncovered in this meet and with training he should be a coming star. VVith the Rig Six but little over a month away the team is now rounding out into finished form, and from present indications it will give a good account of itself. Captain Roads is a tireless worker and inspired by his enthusiasm the new men have been wo1'king hard. As we look back over the work of the year we feel gratified over the success of our relay team which has not lost a race in Ohio, and which holds the Big Six record by a comfortable margin. 266 THE 1909 RELAY TEAM ..

And it came to pass, that those unto whom the children of the llall must render obedience, pondered in their hearts how they might com- pel the wicked and slothful ones to hearken unto their commandments. Thereupon the ruler of the Hall devised plans of chastisement and called them demerits'l by name. Then, calling together the children of the Hall, she gave unto them these commandments, saying :- I. Wliosoever alloweth her light to shine after the iirst hour of the second watch shall receive one, demerit, for the eye of the watch- man is a careful eye, seeing the light, even though the blind be drawn. II. Remember the Study-Hour, to keep it diligently. In it, thou shalt not talk, no, nor thy room-mate, but work unceasingly. III. Thou shalt not be absent from thy meals, for this is wrong in the eyes of thy masters. IV. Thou shalt not leave thy room after the bell for retiring hath sounded. ' V. If, after the iirst half-hour of the second watch, thou re- memberest aught, which might cause thy room-mate to laugh, tell it not, lest the corridor teacher hear thee and give thee a demerit, VI. Thou shalt not leave thy room during the hour of medita- tion on the Sabbath Day, but think on thy sins. ' VII. Thou shalt not leave the room where thou eatest thy even- ing meal before the ruler of the Hall hath said prayers. VIII. Tarry not on thy return from an evening entertainment, neither enter any place for refreshment, for if thou art late, verily, thou hast earned for thyself a demerit. IX. Suffer no one to entice thee to walk to Greenwood Lake on a pleasant day, for there evil awaits thee. X. Never be found in the company of a young man on the Sab- bath Day, for this is the most grievous sin of all. Unto her, who hath received five demerits, a warning voice shall speak, and unto l1er who hath received ten demerits, aye, verily, great woe shall come, inasmuch as her conduct will be reported to her parents, and she shall be banished from the joy and pleasures of the Hall, which is called Monnett. 296 Some Evolutlons 14 v l I l Il Ill IV Juliet comes to school She is attracted by the Lambd'1 headgeir She buys a modest little bonnet Q25 bones The faculty issues its edict 30 cents? yn' ., l l mf' M ' uf. 1 H H- ,U cp ' X 1 N 2 v 1 f M ,ls w ' ' ' ' 5' 0 ,, X. 314 A Freddy Compton Loretta jane Taft Elbert Hubbard Mohn Rev.

'ffl If C., . i l UDGEl Monnett fudge has such a wide reputation that young men have been known to stand below a window in the coldest weather and wait for a box of this delectable sweet to be lowered to them. One evening some young men appeared below a window and said they had a pennant for the girls-a thin excuse, indeed. Now, as it happened these girls were just then making some fudge and after the pennant was drawn up, they told the boys to return shortly for some candy. VVhen the fudge was made and daintily packed in a box, a whistle was heard outside the window, and, without delay, the box was tossed out. Then in a cautious whisper, there came from the window above, Did you get it P Yes, I got it, was the reply in the unmistakable tones of Floppy, as he picked up the box from the ground. Oh. fudge! what do you think of that? was all the girls could say. The Journal of Harry Missionary Baker NIIOTTO. If I cannot do great things 'l can do a great many small things, and if I cannot say great things I can deliver a great deal of small talk. Well, I got up this morning at four o'clock and put in three vigorous minutes with my new three-ounce dumb-bells, whereupon I was completely exhausted so I put on my Miother llubbard and got breakfast. I enjoyed getting breakfast so much, it gave me a feeling of independence and self-reliance, you see. I got gruel in my Mothers Friend Aluminum Redoubtable Double Iioiler, poached six eggs in the New Peerless .l.'erforated Aluminum Egg Poacher, and lf would have made some coffee in my New Rival Aluminum I'ereolating Coffee I'ot but coffee makes me sick' so I drank some IIorlick's Malted Milk and topped it off with a swig of sulphur water. Next I studied the Salesman's Manual for a few minutes and when the clock struck eight 'I' went down to the college on the hill and signed up. I ani taking llible I, Roman Life, and Greek VIII. If I C2111 keep this gait up for a few terms I ought to graduate with the class of 1915. VVell I spent the morning meeting the new fellows and helping Steger in the Y. M. C. A. office. We roped a good many in on the dues and as a result we are each about thirty bones to the good. I was too happy to eat dinner today so I played my mandolin till one thirty, and then Prexy called up and said, Harry, some men are born great, some achieve greatness and some have greatness 'l'lrrIRUS'I' upon them. VVcll I was glad that it was over the phone so he couldn't see me blush because he had me fussed for the instant, I didn't know that he knew that I had been kicking up any dust around college. It must have been that ivy that I planted around Gray Chapel several years ago. ,llut l'rexy went on to say that as a resultithe faculty had decided to put me in charge of the business department of the Transcript for the coming year. 'lf thought that it was generally ad- mitted that there wasn't any business department to the thing, and when I made a remark like this to Prof. NVestgate he said that he thought that must be the reason I was put in charge. I wonder what he meant by that. , Well I was determined to make good in my new position so .l. went to Columbus right away and went to see an advertising man. I told him that I was the new Business Manager of the Ohio Wesleyan 301 Transcript and that I wanted some novelty to advertise tl1e Transcript this year. The man said that there seemed to be one novelty already advertising the paper but I knew that he was mistaken because the faculty wouldn't'be likely to do any thing in the novelty line until they had seen 1ne. The fellow had two kinds of bells to be tied to postals with the words t'XVe are ringing you up. The brass bells were a little more expensive than the tin ones but the man seemed to think' that the brass was more appropriate so I got them and came home on tl1e l'ennsylvania because it makes me sick to ride faster than a walk. On the way home I read the life story of the inventor and founder of I'eruna and it taught me that in moments of great achievement one ought always share their opportunities with others. Xkfhen I got to fllelaware I determined to practice my newly discovered truth so l went out on a hunt for some Juniors to help me tie the bells to the cards. Almost all the juniors were out preaching at their Cl1Zl1'g'CS so I went down street and picked up IE. A. I7. jones, l3attenHeld, Garver, llayliss, lX'lerriman, llernhardt and Lacy at the pool-room. On the way I stopped Prof. VValker and told him where we were going but he told us to go some place else so we hurried on, not knowing the way to the new place. Wfhen we had hnished we called up the editor of the Transcript and told him what we had done, and he said that he was sure that no one else would have done such a thing or even thought of it, and that little word of encouragement more than paid me for all my trouble. I am glad there is going to be harmony among the members of the staff this year, they will do so much better work for me. W'ell my heart is full on this the opening day of what I hope is going to be my best year of school, and if my plans work' without a hitch we will have lfdward Rok, Carrie Nation, Eugene Woocl, Nick I.ongworth, Mrs. Rorer, Lydia I'inkham, The Lady from Phila- delphia and a few others of the most prominent writers of the day as regular contributors to that glorious old rag of freedom The Ohio NVcsleyan Transcript. 302 SAMPLE OF FRESHMAN CALLING CARD.

Students frequently confuse this with other substances. Most chemists even have difficulty at this point, but through long experience at Ann Arbor and Zurich when I handled tons of it, I have become quite familiar with it. I recognize too that an unusually good memory has been of inestimable value to me. Since it is of fundamental impor- tance, let me repeat then, that the substance sulphur, what the chemist knows as S. is frequently confused with other metallic substances, Cnotice I say substances, not elementsj. Tl1e student must learn this through experience and until he is thoroughly acquainted with it, he should not use undue familiarity. One mightas reasonably address the King of England as Ed, as to speak of sulphur as HS. In the first place let us contrast sulphur with sugar. I-'rof. Smith in a series of very delicate experiments at the University of Chicago discovered that sulphur is of a greenish yellow hue, whereas sugar is white. I am speaking now of ordinary commercial sulphur, such as you buy at the grocery for IO cents per pound and which I buy in large quantities for laboratory purposes at 91- cents. -I say Prof. Smith is given the credit for this very important and interesting discovery, but in reality I discovered it several years before, and was surprised that other chemists did not know of it. You see We often underrate our own abilities and our own work. I take in my right hand, that is the hand to your left and my right, the one on the south side toward my assistant Mr. Evans, a test tube. This tube is made of ordinary commercial glass such as is used in the inanufactory of the window panes of this building which allow the rays of the sun to shine into the room and act as one of nature's chief and best gerinicides. This tube is thoroughly purged of dirt by distilled water or as the chemist would say, is free from all foreign matter. This tube, the same I hold in my hand, not the one you see lying on the table, although the same is true of them, is open at one end, the end pointing upward toward the ceiling, and is closed at the opposite end, the one pointing toward the floor. This latter end is closed with glass of the same chemical properties as the sides. The glass was caused 'to fuse by the application of heat and if properly done is of sufficient strength to retain what is placed within the tube through the open end. That process of glass manufacture is very interesting, but we can not stop now to explain it, however if any of you are especially interested, having in mind a career in chem- istry, I shall be glad to explain if you will stop at the desk. I place in the tube through the open end a small quantity of the commercial sulphur, allowing it to descend into the other end which with malice a forethought is cleaned and pointing downward so as to prevent the substance running out. I now add a little distilled water and apply 315 the end to the Bunson flame. The tube heats, but it is not hot, for see! I hold it in 1ny hand! and if it were hot I could not or should not care to do that, for heat attacks with alacrity the articular tissues of the hand. However, should I hold it in the flame long enough, the tube would become so hot that I should be compelled even against my desire, to drop it to the ground, table or floor as the case might be.- Aside-fnow we can't have any clucking in this class. I don't care who you are or what your name is, even if you are the progeny of the greatest scientist that ever lived it is hoodlumism to cluck in this class. The bell has not yet struck, sounded or rung-three names for the same actionl. Now as I was about to say before we were disturbed QI hope not maliciously, only thoughtlesslyj, if I should proceed to pour water into this tube, which I shall not do, the tube would have a tendency to fill. If continued long enough, say a half hour, a half minute or a half second depending entirely upon the volume of the stream, the tube would overflow. That is to say, the water solution of the commer- cial sulphur tif sulphur were soluble in water which it is notj would run out the top and down the sides of the tube, making a slight turn at the base and then drop onto the ground, table or floor as the case might be. Is that clear to all? That is important and is so funda- mental that you can not understand what is to follow unless you have mastered that. Let's have a showing of hands. All that understand hold up both hands--that is good. Now those who do not, hold up one hand. Yes - if there are no questions I shall proceed. As I said in the first part of my lecture, that is the speech to which you are all presumably listening with interest and the one I give utterance to out of a long experience, sulphur is greenish yellow, whereas sugar is white. Understand all the while I am speaking of ordinary commercial sulphur. If I add a little indicator say pheno- phalion, we do not detect any change in color. Now if I filter off the water and dry the residue with the blotting paper we do not have as you expected hydroxide, nitrogen anhydride, lime or calcium chloride, but sulphur- commercial sulphur. Now that is interesting I am sure. You note the color is a trifle deeper yellow due to a part of the moisture which was not removed by the blotting paper. The apparatus used was very crude and these results are only approximate. Now if I should add a little concentrated solution of oxygen in the powder form and light it with a splinter prepared by my assistant Mr. Evans, you would immediately or not to be more exact, soon see a flame. All who do wot see the flame hold up your left hand. Now those who are near detect a brimstone smell. Mr. Bieler, do you notice the characteristic pungent odor? Yes. Mr. L. R. Driver? Mr. I-I. R. Driver? Now you probably think you smell the sulphur, but it is only the fume of the burning commercial sulphur. The llame of the sulphur you will notice is blue, while the flame from the splint is red. Do you all see the difference? I might illus- trate by two columns of soldiers, one dressed in red coats and the other in blue coats. If they were standing two abreast in a long column, it would not matter about the color of the trousers, you could 816 easily detect the difference by the red and blue coats. If you have ever seen this phenomenon you can understand somewhat the chem- ist's conception of the difference between red and blue. I remember when quite a small boy say 20 years ago or to be more exact several years ago, noting the difference between a blue hen and a red pig. My father was an agriculturist, the formula being C O W, -l- P I G3 -f- H E N5. I once before gave you this formula on the particular part of theblackboard just under the end of my pointer. It might have been a trifle higher up or slightly lower, possibly a little to the right, certainly not to the left for that is the end of the board. Turning again to the matter under discussion, you see the sulphur is almost burned away, and consequently the flame is not so large. Is there any one who can notice the difference? Can those in the balcony? I refer to those not talking and who do not expect to take any laboratory work, the McFerson and Henderson class? The odor is appreciably weaker, but it is yet pungent and yet like sulphur. Wliy? Because nothing has been added.-The bell has struck. At the next recitation period which will be at this hour on Wednesday, we all meet as usual in one section in this room. At that time I shall endeavor to show you by a series of interesting experiments that sulphur at ordinary temperatures is not a gas as is generally, though erroneously, supposed. - .' .- ,41.l-.i.-.t,.,l.l ll l .... l ll l l I l ll . - , H A' I ' Q . fi 'lf' YN M' -.f I .Q-watt.

XVC put the actual value atllifty cents, because that's what the printer said the paper is worth. .lf you like the book, gentle reader, keep still, say nothing at all about itg and no one else will know what a fool you are. lf you don't like it write out your complaint on paper, and hand it to the general secretary after chapel some morning. The Bijou would have been worth your dollar and a half if-if a good many things had not happened, but we have no apology to make that would appear well in print. No editor could have had a better statt. Special credit is due to the. Misses Stevenson, llrown, Crates and Haines who not only edited the only good department in the book, but greatly 'facilitated the manager's work in taking care of the organizations at Monnett. These members were tireless in their efforts, and if they had had full charge the purple patches of this gem of book-making would have been more general. The assistant editors, Miss Brown and Mr. Kings- bury, were not only' faithful in their work, but were always able to come to the fore with ideas when the idea-stock was low, which was always.
