ANDERSON 15 PTOCIT1 Logieally, this is the only place given us to make apologies for what follows, and to exonerato ourselves from its consequences. That the Bijou was made an annual was no fault of ours-nor of the Faculty. The responsibility rests entirely with the student body, who gave their sanction to the project. Nevertheless, we feel that the experiment was a wise one, and hope that to the minds of the readers it has been justified by the issue to which it has been brought. We have indulged in some innovations which were made neces- sary by the character of the book, still it has been our endeavor to represent in some small way the student life at Ohio NVesleyan. There has been attempted a brief eharaeterization of each senior in- sofar as such a thing' was possible. ln some cases no one of the Board knew the senior who was to be written up, while in other eases so much was known of the subject that it was a ditticult task to sa.y the right thing. 'l'hese biographies are to be taken seriously. Any one mistaking them as jokes will he doing an everlasting insult to the dignity of seniors. All student enterprises and college organizations that in any way present different aspects of university life we have tried to give a place in the first annual. Nor have the faculty been 'omitted in our attempts to set forth real eollege life, for in spite of all the advantages Ohio Wesleyan affords, student life would not he half S0 interesting without a Faculty. lf your peculiarities are not exposed in the Roasts department. it is your own fault. The Board has assumed a passive attitude in the matter, allowing all who wanted in this department, to make their own write-up. However, it might be added, that generalities in this section of the book may be fittingly attributed to the editors. One thing more: Our anxiety is to see the Bijou made an an- nual permanently. It is now in the experimental stage, and needs careful handling. Our part is done, the rest is yours, kind reader. Consideration and magnanimity in your criticisms will do much, in fact all, that is left to be done, towa.rd making the annual sure. 16 N ,Il .li Rev. Herbert Welch, D. D., LL.

The ehief purpose to be kept in mind is efficiency. You must learn many facts and much information. You should obtain the power to handle facts and information. You must learn to reason and think for yourself. You should acquire as much practical in- formation as possible during a college course. Prepare yourself to grapple with unexpected conditions, to dive into new environments from year to year. Every tub should stand on its own bottom. The ability to stand o11 your feet, to analyze, and decide how to do is efficiency. To develop this quality our University is spending thousands of dollars for instruction and equipment. Men who obtain such training are in great demand and their opportunities are growing wider every year. Training for Business. Have you ever thought of business as your prospective career after leaving college? lf so, let us urge you to carefully consider the necessity of a Business Course. All that our University is doing in the line of Engineering, Medicine, Music and Art, the School of Business is now undertaking for the great sphere of business. Do not make the mistake of going into business because you cannot get along in something else. lf business is your calling, train yourself for it as you would for sueeess in any other field of human activity. Devote your preparation to all the care and enthusiasm that you would give to a profession, so that when you enter upon your career you may have a trained mind and developed personality. lt is in response to these ideals of university education that the School of Business has been developed. Our aim is to give young men special training upon the su'vjeets which are most helpful in practical business life, so that the college graduate may be a well- rounded, eilieient man. Lyeurus L.

School of Music The School oi' Music is now enjoying the greatest growth in its history and for the past year has had the largest enrollment of talented students. Music is fast being recognized as an essential in the education of all and the School, with its close relationship to the University, offers many splendid opportuflities to the student in the literary as well as music department. Eminent instructors are provided in all departments and thorough courses are given in vocal. instrumental and theoretical music, and the greatest attention is given to the especial needs of each individual, the course of study being selected according to the requirements of the student. Sanborn llall, the new home of the School of Music, is a memorial given by Mrs. Anna Clason, in honor of her mother and brother, and is designated to perpetuate the best interests of musical art. The llall is noted in the city as one of the finest college build- ings. lt is constructed on the most approved plans and is a model in its appointments, provided with sound-proof studios and practice rooms and one of the finest auditoriums in the country, elaborate in decorations and furnishings and is especially adapted to chamber concerts. The seating capacity is about six hundred. All recitals of students and artists are given in this alulitorium. ZH 4 9 q ivnt nf Art 5,2-S ri-4 n I JJ ea Tliere are art schools much more widely known, and there are art sl-hools more widely attencled, hut it a question whether there are alt schools that can give their students any more happiness in their work than they get right here at Ohio NVes1eyan. Art Hall or Lyon Ilall, as it is now 1,-allecl, is so picturesque in its very location that latent artistie ability cannot help but lnifohl under the inliuences of such surroundings. Attracted by the ex- terior, one is not clisappointecl hy the interior of Lyon Ilall, for, with the quaint nooks and eorners, the winding' stair and tower besides the more eonnnonplace features, it furnishes a suitable environment for the study of the things of art. But more important than all else is the work itself, for, ill spite of the contrary opinion helcl hy the average eollegian, the art stu- dent does put in many hours of hard work. At the same time the student of art is acquiring the technique of the various arts, he gains an increased power of appreciation of beauty in art and na- ture, and, in such degree as it lies in him, an ahility to reprocluee such ln-auty satisfactorily. 31 Every art student ut Ohio VVesley:i,n may I10t beconlo un artist, may llUYt'l' puint El, picture, but hu will, if lu- hus eyes und the ability to use flu-nl, sec new avenues of interest and bounty stretching out before him day by day. The student of lzuldseape and color will soon find tho long summer street turned into at nmrvclous succession 0fC'llElI1g.flHg light and shade, bright with blotrhes of yellow sunshinc dancing against the purple richness of the shadows. Grass is no longer just green and the sunset snow holds :L wculth of color. 'l'hus does an nrt education broaden one's vision. The work is in- intensoly intvrc-stin,9,'. lVhether it be water color study or clmreoul sketch, problem in design or china cup upon which onu is working, there is an attraction about it which nnikvs even the passage of time unnoticed. The 1Il2lSl0l'y of the sznne difficulties of technique, the enduring of like failures and the scoring of similar triumphs seem to produce fl, feeling of kinship among art students, here and everywhere, that finds expression in social festivities, some commonplace and some unique. Such tlu-n arc some of the plcasurcs that Lyon llull offers to those who 1-ntvr its doors to become ournest students of urt. ill 32 E J' -5- ' 1 Z PM +. 5.

B. .l'?llll'l0Y', '13 Edna l4'iegenba.um, ,123 'l'he Student Senate, since its organization in 1906, has been in- creasing in importance and influence at Ohio Vllesleyan each year. 'l'his Senate, which is really the Executive Committee of the Student Body, is composed of sixteen members: The President and Vice President of eaeh of the four college classes, the Presidents of the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A., the Presidents of the Athletic As- sociation and of the Debate and Oratory Council, and the four offlcers of the Student Body as a whole, President, Seeretary-'l'rcas- urer, Yell Master and Song Leader. The Senate acts as the intermediary body between the Student Body and the Faculty, considering matters of general student in- terest referred to it by the President of the University, and recom- mending to tl1e Student Body measures of importance. In the very first year of its organization the Student Senate proposed Resolu- tions on the Honor System, which were unanimously adopted by the Student Body. Wliile the Honor System has not advanced as much as we might hope, there is undoubtedly a strong sentiment against class-room dishonesty at Ohio Vlfesleyan. Perhaps the biggest thing the Student Senate has done yet is the organization of the Hospital Association which is designed to be an insurance company for the benefit of all students. The help rendered to students by this Association during the first term of its existence is sufficient proof that it is a successful experiment, and that such an organization has been much needed in the college, 35 tg 9 HB Class of 1910 Holm-s -eYvllow mul H!'1'lE1l.

A There was in the days of Welch, President of Ohio Wesleyan, a class of heroes and heroines, and they were all faithful before their Alma Mater, walking in all her commandments and ordinances. Now it came to pass while they were obeying the law unto this class from the very beginning, as it were, victory rose up and en- tered i11to the house of Nineteen llundred and Ten and dwelt with them, bestowing many honors, yea even up to the time of their going forth into the wide, Wide World. And there were enemies in the same country, abiding near at hand, keeping watch by stealth over the illustrious chosen ones. Hut they were not afraid. And when they beheld their olive and gold glorifying the heavens they made known unto the world that this was a sign ol' their first victory and the hopes of the Hag rush had been fulfilled. The axe was also laid at the foot of the tree a11d championships in football, basketball and track were brought forth as good fruit. And as the people were in expectation, Gilruth and others with many exhortations thoroughly cleansed the threshing floor of de- bate. Then after these things we forsook not the chafing dish, but the rare Baker desired that we should eat with him and We entered often into the room of Prof. Austin and it came to pass when We had voted many things necessary we sat at meat. The house of Nineteen Hundred and Ten has now fulfilled its course almost four cycles. The trophies which victory has brought to her door are numerous. Stauffer and Baker, sons of the house of 39 Sig Alph, Daniels son of Alpha Tau, Charles and Patton of the house of Phi Delta have brought the nations to behold and Wonder at their prowess. V At the time of the eelebration of the feast' of Washington we have sat again at meat and toasted with Old Glory proudly waving over our victorious heads. And yet before our Alma Mater We lay our talents, as humble and faithful subjects. 'While there are also many other things we have achieved, the which, if they had been written, would all proelaim that the sons and daughters of Nineteen Hundred and Ten will not go forth into the wide, wide world unbidden and unknown, we bid thee now fare- well.

Perry is one of the many who have de- serted Taylor University. Short in stature, yet mighty in word and deed.

While taking his school work he has served Raymond Charge and Delaware Circuit. On most occasions he hasn't much to say, but when once touched off-well, ask the fellows wno played his club.

Ordinarily such a conscientious student as Miss Phillpot has enough work to keep herself out of mischief. But evidently not, for this young student has imported a still younger cousin to chaperon about. Then, besides this great responsibility, she has been enticed into marking Psych. analyses. Truly she is laden with many cares. Besides she was a shrewd' philosopher and had read ev'ry text and gloss over. Etta Wood Porterfleld, B. L. Delaware, Ohio. Clionian. This pretty young senior takes linfe very quietly and seriously, but the reason is not far to find: her father is a judge. No wonder she is as solemn as a judge.

Yet you might infer as much from the fact t-hat she no longer bothers about such trifles as French, and makes a practice of combining the prepara- tion of her lesson with a short nap,-a most infallible test of a senior.

A Swedish maid, with all the sunshine, jollity, warm-heartedness and genuine good- will that any one could ask. She has well deserved the queenly name she bearsg and yet has fairly earned her nick-name too She hopes some day to teach the heathen children how to say their ABC's. I-Ier smile was prodigal sunshine, Gaily persistent like a day of summery in June. George Ezra Whitman, A. B. Garnett, Kans. Bijou Board 133: Y. M. C. A. Cabinet C33 C455 Varsity Foot Ball Mgr. 141: Senior Captain Cadets C433 President Oihcers Club 143. Amphic. Whit . What have we here? Another product of the fertile soil of Delaware County. All who know him say we have in Whit a re- markable character, but none have yet cared to particularize. His chief characteristic is thegreat estimate he places on his own opinion. Whit has always been a con- scientious student and a hard worker, and his push and vim and earnestness with which he undertakes his tasks has never failed to receive the silent commendation of his fellow students. He has done him- self proud at Ohio Wesleyan, and we have no doubt that in years to come in far off Kansas he will bring honor to old Wesleyan. See what we have to put up with. Vera Blanche Whinery, B. L. Martinsville, Ohio. Of the counties of Ohio, Clinton has not been least in the number OL her pilgrims to the shrine of learning on the Olentangy, and of these pilgrims our subject is not the least. Solemn in appearance, sympathetic in na- ture-fdeigning to pass her nights with VanSant-the shark Anthropologus-genen ous of heart-loaning her eye-shade for poorly equipped class stunts to her own bit'- ter loss,-gracious in her dealings with other, Miss Whinery has ingratiated herself in the good favors of the Monnett authori- ties and has won herself a place in the home of the co-eds. Cudgel thy brains no more about it Qeye- snadejf' Fred Arthur Whitmore, A. B. East Taunton, Mass. O. W. U.: Amphicg Freddie . Freddie is a Yankee, as anyone would probably infer from his speech. But this cannot be held against him, for in other re- spects he has proved himself a gentleman. He is quiet and not at all anxious of being burdened with honors, but he always makes good in his class-room work. He has al- ways identified ,himself with any movement in college that would make for the better- ment of his fellow-students. His work in creating sentiment against cribbing which he did among his fellow-students, in his senior year shows him as being willing to take the initiative, in difficult matters. He was so genially civil, that nobody thanked him tor it. Clyde Connor Wilson, B. L. New Plymouth, Ohio. He is so very quiet, so utterly unob- trusive, so very well compact in size at least, we hardly know him, never hear his voice, nor dare to state his aim in life: yet this much we dare venture+his future life will quite contented be, his friends remain forever true, and find in nim a friend. Only let me silent be! Ethel Mary Wilson Alt Marion, Ohio Castalian. She was known as one of the Garret Rats in Marion High School, but is now one of Monnett's trusties, in spite of the mid- night spreads, ghost parties, etc. Some peo- ple change so radically when they come to college, it was thought by some that she would change her nationality but she has changed her mind instead. She will take a post graduate course at State if her papa doesn't need her at home next year, so she says. Grace was in her every step. Maxy Pearl Hogue, Music. Delaware, Ohio. Being impressed by the duty of patroniz- lng home industries, she -has elected to take her degree from the college of her own town. That she is not well acquainted with all of us, is her gain, but our loss. Her fine features indicate her musical inclination, and the accompanying likeness shows her reserved and of her own mind- an excel- lent thing in woman. But if sfhe won't, she won't, And you may depend oI1't. 5 A Ethel Alden, Music. Delaware, Ohio. This girl is so small that her parents feared she might be lost if she got far away from home, hence our University has been blessed by her presence, adorned by her beauty, sweetened by her love, and cheered by 'her Voice. Little women like big men, and vice versa, as shown by a certain Phi Delt pin which is found in the center of the jewelry she wears. Miss Alden has been with us so long that when it was learned that she was really going to graduate some conjectures were immediately formed. Gentle of speech, beneficent of mind. Nina May Warren, B. L. Lincoln, Neb. . In spite of the very delightful time she has had at the Buckeye University, she has made an extra effort to cut short her stay with us. To that end she has combined her Junior and Senior years, and will receive her diploma this June. But what meaneth all this haste? Is it the result of restless ambition , or does she find Monnett's dining room an uncongenial place for talkative folks?-we can say no more without telling all. A Fie! what a spendthrift she is of her tongue. Frank William Cherry, B. S Greenfield, Ohio. fI'A9: Squirre1 . This student whose familiar name is Squirrel is generally to be found in his den. He boasts of the proud record of hav- ing never yet been seen at Monnetg but he spends his playtime in rough-housing his frat brothers. His specialties are all kinds of languages and cube cut . He is known in college life as the man who never Hunks . When a gentleman is disposed to swear it is not for any standers-by to curtail his oaths. Morris Humphries, A. B. Prospect, Ohio. ' Morris is a special favorite of Dr. Wal- ker, and has his own private brand of little Havanas. He will make a good teacher if he continues to look longingly over his glasses and to come late to class of a morn- ing. ' H He makes a solitude and calls it peace, ,... ,- ..r ,,..,.,s, N . ,..

One of these sweet, unassuming little peo- ple, who take special pains to conceal their brightness from the gaping crowd. We are sorry she is a Senior. She really owes us another year, since she skipped her verdant Freshmanfhood here. True merit constantly sought for and valued by all. Lois Rockey, B. S. Gonda, India. Quiet, industrious, with a big sister-'s heart, unburdened with the honors poured on some, but happily content to be just what she is. And what is she going to do? From present indications she can find enough to do to continue keeping house for the other members of the family as they come. To find one thoughtful man I will oblige many that are not so. Mabelle Lillian Endley, B. L. Elyria, .Ohio. Mab. The lady with 'the intermittent frat pin, which first made its appearance in 1907. What will be its fate after June, 1910, is the question. Will its owner prove true or will she change her mind when she returns to her aiu Countree ? ' Pray do not be so fickle As to love each man you see, Or you'1l get into a pickle Before you're twenty-three. She knew she was by him beloved-she knew. For quickly comes such knowledge, that his heart was darken'd with her shadow. Ethel Rachel Cable, B. L. Igima, 01110. Clionian. The most whole-souled, cordial person imaginable! Not even twenty hours' work can affect her good spirits, though this sud- den attack of studiousness has taken the college body somewhat by surprise. How- ever it has not inrterferred with her case with 'tRusty McCabe, which is still flourish- ing. A friend is worth all hazards we can run. 72 Mary Chloris Land, B. L. Slater, Missouri. Clioniang Joke. Suite 77, Monnett- Where's Mary again? Why, Mrs. Newberry, she's keeping Gertie company this evening down on Gertie's front porch. This bit of dialogue will give the public some inkling of Mary's habitat for the last two years. She is back for work this year but leaves her studies long enough to learn when every Sunday excursion gets in from Cleveland. In this as in all other things she has done well what she has undertaken for she has gone about them with that spirit of thoroughness which is characteristic of a Missourian. So we'11 go no more a-roving So late into the nightf Florence Alice Tullis, B. L. Mechanicsburg, Ohio. Joke: Clioniang Floddie 3 Joe . Mechanicsburg must be a poverty stricken place, for this is the second lady from that town who cou1dn't afford C?J her picture in the Bijou. Inasmuch as our subject doesn't appear it is useless' to say anything, and be- sides it's a hard matter to write about a blank spot. If any one is really interested, We would advise them to confer with Taft of Ashland, Ky. A penniless lass with a long pedigree. Helen Jane Williams, B. L. Mechanicsburg, Ohio. Clioniang Fatty . Here is a. young lady who revels in pro- claiming her brilliancy. She is a shark in French, and a grind--though discretion is necessary in approaching her on the before and after mentioned subjects. She pos- sesses a dignified and grave mien, an in- telligent smile and a love for popular songs, like Poor John. Let us say in her defense however that she will be a credit to any man. Certainly if she had known what nice things were going to be said about her, she would have economized elsewhere and had her picture in. Can I ever bid these joys farewell? 73 s . ,l ...Uri uv -as The Boolc of The Children oi 1911. There was, in the latter days, a seribe in the land, and a man eame unto the seribe and said: Write, O scribe, and tell in a book the ehrenieles el' the ehildren ol' nineteen hundred and eleven. And the scribe answered and said: O sir, how ean I write, fel' l ani but a poor scribe, and the deeds el' this people are many and great. And the Juan spake again saying: Write, and the seribe wrote in this wise: And it came to pass in the third year ol? the reign of Herbie the Wise, the son of Peter, who was the son ol' John, that the children of nineteen llllllCl1'CCl and eleven eznne down upon the City of knowledge. And on the twentieth day of the ninth llllllltll, the ruler of the land ealled unto hiinsell' the young' inen and the maidens-the young men in a plaee by themselves and the maidens in a plaee by themselves. And he spake unto thein words ol? eounsel and wisdom whereby the youths and maidens were inueh heartened and joyfully returned each unto his own abode. 1- Now there was in the city a haughty and stii-necked generation -the children of nineteen hundred and ten. And these beheld and saw how that the children of nineteen hundred and eleven waxed bold and were become strong in the land. And with one accord they arose against them and put themselves in battle array against the children of nineteen hundred and ten. And the battle waged sore in the land even from tl1e third hour of the morning until the ninth hour. New at the breaking of the day the captains of the hosts of nineteen hundred and eleven took council together in this wise: Let us arise and bind them and scatter their hosts. So they bound them with ropes and threw them into prison. And when the enemy saw that their captains and leaders were fallen they fled before the hosts of the children ef nineteen hundred and eleven. And the children of nineteen hundred and ten were wroth so that there was continual war in the land for the space of about a year. But the children of nineteen hundred and eleven Waxed strong in battle and subdued all their enemies. And it came to pass, at the time of the return of the year, the time when the captains and leaders gc forth to do battle, that a strange and ungodly people came up into the city to possess it. And the children of nineteen hundred and eleven arose up and led forth their army. But the children of nineteen hundred and twelve came up in great numbers and also the children of nineteen hundred and ten came to suceor them. And the battle was sore in the land so that the rulers and elders of the land sent forth a decree that they should cease from battle. ' New it came to pass on the 6th day that the hosts of 1911.and 1910 were again gathered together to do battle. And the army of the children of 1911 were encamped on the west side of the river and theshosts of 1912 on the east side of the river. And there were five and twenty chosen men on each side who did battle for their hosts but they could not prevail one against the other. Wherefore the Lords of the land again sent forth a decree that they should cease from battle. And there was peace in the land for a short space. And the children of 1912 spake among themselves saying: 1Ve are in great strait. Let us therefore send forth our messengers who shall speak unto the children of 1910 and confound them. And the elders and rulers of theipeople appointed three judges. Then the children of 1911 chose three .men who should speak for them. And the messengers of the children of 1912 and the messengers of the children of'1911 were assembled in the temple which is called 75 Gray Chapel, and there were gathered together a goodly company in th place. And the messenger of 1912 rose up and spake to thi- judges and the people saying: Resolved, that a system of Postal Savings Banks should be established in the United Statesf' And the messengers of 1911 rose up and answered them saying: Nay, the thing is not so. And the messengers of 1911 found favor in the eyes of the judges, and all the people made a great tumult, crying out and shouting great are the children of 1911, and wise are their messengers. And the thing was noised abroad in the land, and the children of nineteen hundred and eleven got great praise and honor. And it came to pass at the time of the return of another year, that there remained yet a goodly company of the children of 1911. And they spake one to another and said: Go to now, let us appoint a day of rejoicing, and let us assemble together at the Hall which is called the 'Semi And let us bring thither Duvie, who has tormented us greatly, and he shall make sport for us. And it was so that on the appointed day there was a great assemblage, and the children of 1911 tormented Duvie with moekings and derision, and made him run and leap for their pleasure and there Was feasting and drinking and great rejoicing. But it came to pass that the Ruler of the 'Sem' spake unto the leaders of the people, and the people went their ways and permitted Duvie to depart in peace unto his house. And it was so that the children of 1911 increased in power and in Wisdom, and found favor in the eyes of the Elders and Rulers of the land, for the youths were strong and clever of speech, and the maidens were pleasant and good to look upon. , Mary I, Lyon. 76 Fourth Row-Harriet Conklin, Eva Cowely, R.

But the trousers of 191.8 dropped ohcdicntly about the ankles. ' Of course, it isnit nice to speak about it, but didn't some oil? the freshmen linger in durance vile in the city bastile one night under the heinous charge of being possessed of too husky a frame? NVc may be mistaken, but we think they did. They didn 't mind it much, though. Said it wasn't nearly as bad as one of Deen I-ligley's reeitations in chemistry.

Then rose Minerva, and in wise address, Resolved the riddle thus: 'AA Mll'0Sl11H21,ll Class, Iflndowed with all the attributes that we Possess in such an eminent degree, And graced with our high favor, well might crown iller hoary brow with g'lory and rcnownln The gods seemed highly pleased with this design, And up rose Jupiter, his face divine, Glearned radiant with pleasure. Noble dame, Responded he, 'tis needless to proclaim Your plan adopted. liet us act with speed, And see completed what is here decreed. Each goddess seek a maid, eaeh god a youth, And lavishly endow themg nor, in truth, Neglect to lead them all to Delaware, Farewellli' and J ove sat down upon the air. Thus did we come-for surely all believe This simple tale-for Freshmen ne'er deceive, So innocent and artless are they all. And have we not responded to the call Of those high Pagans, and, endowed with might, And wisdom sage, and learning infinite, And beauty ravishing, and virtue pure, And nimble wit, and modesty demure, And skillfulibrawn, and courage scorning fear, And siren voices wooing every ear, Islave we not come to glorify, inspired, Our Alma Mater as the gods desired? A Well, we can hear a Sophomore answer No 1 But in a whisper, for not long ago, In dauntless phalanx we subdued his pride, He sneered, maligned, immersed, laughed, fought and died Our foe thus vanquished, dignity regained, And hearts by common cause together chained, Vile sealed consolidation with a vote, And chose a Prexie , banner, yell, and wrote A eonstitutionfunity complete. Would comrades be companions they must meet In lighter hours, and o'er the festive board, Swap valorous tales, adore and be adored By gentle hearts, that secretly inspired Their souls with courage. Thus it was We met In revelry and feasting. fPray forgetj That cider, doughnuts, pickles was our fare, That these ran out, and that the brilliant glare Of chanda1iers forsook us in the height Of revels, that were tempered by a slight Emharrassment. No blemishes were these, For shades relieved the chill some ten degrees, And light refreshments gave more time for chats About those sophomores , studies, weather, frats, Monnett, Columbus, weather, studies, weather. 84 But these are past and jumbled up together lu 1I1CIIl0I'y, with feeds and schemes and games, And dates, and flunks, and faces, voices, names, A host of secret histories-We pass Them by, our theme 's the Freshman Class. And now 'tis ended. At some future day l'wiIl he eontinued when there is more to say. More glorious, Freshmen, may we grow with years, More hold our heroes, and move dear our dears, More skilled our athletes, and more sage our sages, Until our fame shall echo through the ages!

Gray Phi Kappa Psi Colors-Lavender and Pink. Phi Kappa Psi was founded at Jefferson College, Cannonsburg, Pa., February 19, 1852, by Charles P. T. Moore and VVillia.m H. Letterman. The high ideals of these men were soon spread abroad, and through their dominating influence the Fraternity has steadily advanced, attaining national prominence. Conservatism has al- ways been the watchword of Phi Kappa Psi, and her chapters, now numbering forty-four, have been established only in the ,repre- sentative institutions of our country. The total membership of the Fraternity is now about 12,000, embracing men distinguished in every walk of life. ' The Ohio Alpha Chapter was founded at Ohio Wesleyan Uni- versity in 1861. lt has had forty-nine years of continuous ex- istence, and has always held a prominent place in university life. The chapter has given more prominent men to the Fraternity than any other. Among its list of distinguished men we name the fol- lowing: Bishops McCabe and NVa1den, Senator J. B. Foraker, Prof. John NVilliams White, the noted Greek authority of Harvard. Prof. Amos Dolbear, the scientist of Tufts, Dr. Joseph E.

Vongxtlon ALPHA TAU OMEGA HOUSE Sigma Alpha Epsilon Sigma Alpha Epsilon is a fraternity of pure Southern origin and was the only Greek letter fraternity established in the South before the Civil War. At the opening of that great struggle, the brothers responded most promptly to the call to arms, the move- ment resulting in a general disorganizing of the fraternity. After the war, however, the few surviving members instituted a period of reconstruction and chapters were established over the entire South. For a time the activity was entirely confined to Dixie, but in 1883 the first chapter North of Mason and Dixon 's line was established at Gettysburg College, Pennsylvania. Five years later in 1888, Ohio Delta was established at Ohio NVesleyan. Sigma Alpha Epsilon has always stood for the higher ideals in life, as is attested by her alumni, and Ohio Delta Chapter has ever striven to maintain the standards of the national fraternity. 111 I l i 4 Sigma Alpha Epsilon .

It is also provided that the organization shall not become what has been commonly called an Anti-Fraternity club nor shall its infiuence be used in furthering the political aspirations of any one of its members. It will thus be seen that the Union has been founded on a firm basis and that the plans which have been laid are broad in scope and promise much in the way of success in the coming years. When founded, the Union had sixteen members, a membership which has since been increased to thirty with prospects for a larger number before the end of the year. All non-fraternity men in good standing are eligible to membership and it is planned that when the organization shall have been more firmly established and a system of club rooms worked out that most of these shall have the opportunity of becoming members. However, it is recognized that this cannot take place very quickly and that the Union must grow slowly if it is to be a success. A method of election to membership somewhat similar to that used in other organizations of its kind has been adopted and by this method only men of good character and standing are accepted as members. ' The plans adopted provide for a central club room or meeting place at which the meetings of the whole chapter will be held, while, as the growth of the organization makes such possible, the members will be placed in sub-chapters and if possible club houses will he secured. Through the working out of this plan and the growth of the Union, it is thought that a new element conducive to better social intercourse among the men may be introduced into the stu- dent body which will provc of much benefit in securing a closer union between the university and both students and non-fraternity alumni. 116 X Wi 7 J, L ANA , I wx - ,S . .. ..xy'-,.- V , ixj, Y . -,- f.z,m.,w - .1 f a ,- ' 1 A I 1 M 4 Twig:--f -A -1: .,...i ,,, ,, ,W W, U-wand.

They have a two-fold fune- tion: First, as organizations devoted to the aequirement of general culture. VVe may readily lzelieve that they have succeeded in this phase, judging from the testimony of the many alumni, who never weary of telling how much the literary societies have done for them along cultural lines. Even those of us who are still members are quite certain that a large part of the information which We have gained during our college career we received through the literary societies. They are a sort of course in things in general. Though, indeed, we do not go deeply into any one subject, yet all of us see the necessity of such a course for the broadening of our minds. Then, the second function of the literary soeietirs is social. Here we meet as brother with brother and as sister with sister. Here we have formed, some of our most lasting friendships. Pos- sibly it is this side of the literary societies that makes them so dear to all who have gone out from them. To quote our alumni again, a pin of one of the societies is a bond of union between all sons and daughters of Ohio Wesleyan. It serves also as an introduction to strangers who may have had the privilege of being graduated from Delaware. But to return to the present generation. We still retain our predecessors' pride in the literary societies. It is our ambition, as much as it was theirs, to make them strong and flourishing, and we regard it just as much of an honor to wear the society pin. 130 0 SKS QCYQIXGS Amphictyonian H istory On the 15th of next December our Amphictyonian Literary Society will be twenty-five years old. For the first fifteen years of her comparatively brief career Amphic was struggling against heavy odds, and tl1c disadvantage of not having a neatly furnished hall. But gradually all odds were overcome and for the past five years Amphic has been furnishing three-fourths of all the college de- baters and orators. Last year three of the six college debaters, the winner of tl1e Peace Oratorical Contest and the editor of the Bijou, were all Amphic men. Each year has been a more glorious one for the society than the previous one and the season of 1909-10 has not been an exception. This year Wesleyan undertook a bigger proposition in debate than she l1as ever before handled. Three first teams to debate against Oberlin, Reserve and Syracuse and a second team to meet Denison, were chosen from the fifty men who went out for debate. Thus twelve men represented the university as speakers on these teams. Slosser, Jones, Sockman, Ricketts, Weist, Leach, Gilruth, Martin and Cartwright are the nine men who had the honor and re- sponsibility of defending the reputation of their alma mater and their society-Amphictyonian against Oberlin, Reserve and Syra- cuse. Lacy and Gray, making their initial appearance on the debate platform, also brought glory and honor to Wesleyan and to Amphictyonian in the debate against Denison. But not only is Amphic proud to claim eleven of the twelve speakers on debate teams but she is also proud to claim the editor of the Transcript, Martin, and the editor of the Bijou, E. A. P. Jones. During the past year the society indulged in a valuable inno- vation-the purchase of a piano. As a consequence the weekly pro- grams have been made more interesting as well as more profitable by frequent variations from the old stereotyped forms. Bernhardt with his violin, Weist with his cornet, Lacy at the piano, Forbes and Evans with their mandolins, and Clase with his vocal talent, furnish the society with a variety and quality of music which inspires en- thusiastic interest in the meetings. Amphic has enthusiasm, for it is requisite to the attainment of the ideal expressed in our motto: an ideal or goal which the society has been gradually but steadily approaching, an ever ascending ideal never to be realized but al- ways to be striven for: Ad Summan Nitamur. 133 Ampbictyonian Literary Society Founded 1885.

The membership at' various times has been exceptionally vigorous and able. At other times dues have come in so promptly and interest has been so keen that the society has felt strong enough to initiate broad plans for the beautifying of Chresto Hall and for like improve- ments. But never have two situations so coincided as in this year. Never has Chresto possessed such a strong membership and at the same time enjoyed such financial prosperity. Of its Hnancial record Chresto has reason to be proud. This year it has paid the final half of an old note that has been put off for years. It has purchased a. piano which, we venture to say, has no equal in University llall. But our greatest financial achievement is the growth of a loyalty so strong that no student attempts to shirk his responsibility to old Chresto in dues and fines, but does his part promptly and cheerfully. The splendid loyalty to Chresto, always a characteristic of the society, but never so strong as this year, Q has made possible our achievements in membership. 'l'o be sure, with the exception of Mohn, Schwartz and two or three other seniors, we are all under- classmeng but while this fact may cut down the number of our honors, still we maintain with confidence that not even in the palmy days when Vice President-to-be Fairbanks addressed the chair, has the membership been so strong and capable. For two years great care has been exercised by the membership committees in picking new men. As a result the very cream of the classes of '12 and '13 have gone into Chresto, and they have gone so eagerly that, becom- ing overcrowded comparatively early in the year, we were compelled to make a rule to admit no more new members this school year. But with our supremacy in these elements, though they are the elements in which rests the foundation strength of every literary society, We are not content. With all reverence :For our past glory, we are convinced that our greatness does not lie in holding to old precedents. We are convinced that there are possibilities of dc- velopment in Chresto far beyond any development of the past. Hence We are initiating new precedents in program, in administra- tion, in policy, in attitude, tentative as yet, but gaining strength as the year goes on. Toward making our possibilities for improvement certainties, we are striving. 141 l w Zetagathean Oflicers. Winter Term 1910 l'v'cs'iclc'n6, l7e1:'1'y Neldon Vice P7'6S'fCZC'lll', E. A.

The true brotherhood which has always existed in this society has proved to be a big 'lfaetor in keeping her in the front rank among the preparatory societies. Our men are not all literary geniuses but they are all willing to work and this trait is helping many ol' them to gain a good knowledge ol' de- bate and oratory. Last year our efforts were gloriously crowned with sueeess. We participated in two debates and one oratorieal eontest. ln the debates both our teams won. B. O. iWileox, 'W. NV. Wheeler and C. II.

So also is the history ol' liyceum-a reeorml of the achievements ol? her alumni and present members. The aim of our society has heen pre- eminently to promote a. spirit oi? Christian fellowship among our members and assoeiates. This with our ambition to make of our- selves ready speakers, :facile writers and logical dehaters, have been the 'lfaetors that make Lyceum the power that she is today in the University life. Our motto Not who, hut what, well illustrates that we seek not for personal aggramlizement, hut for mutual hene- lit. Our reeorfl is clean and meritorious. However not on past glories do we base our hopes of clistinetion, but on the victories yet to he achieved by our men. Many of our alumni have come to posi- tions oif importance, so also do we hope to hecomc in the future an honor to our Alma Mater. ' 153 XM' , 'VERGON'S CREEK A ??M?J my onnnk Sa oi swag qu... Clionian The Clionian Literary Society was founded in 1855, growing out of the division ol' a society previously existing, called the Social Union. The first members held their meetings in a recitation hall, lzarely furnished, with no decorations but the emblem and the motto. Perhaps this motto, Hliieht mehr Licht was unconscious- ly suggested by the flickering flames ol? the tallow candles which gave the only illumination to our charter members. Searching for a name which would suit the lofty ideals of the society, they chose Ulionian for Clio, the muse of history. The first emblem was a sil- ver triangle bearing the motto, later a scroll of gold and white enamel bearing the name Clionian was adopted, andiis the emblem at the present time. When Monnett llall was built, a room was re- served for the society, which was constantly growing in numbers with the growth of the school.. This hall was partially :furnished in 1865, and dedicated in June of that year. Since that time the same room has been kept, with changes from time to time i11 the furnish- ings, as the girls tried to attain their ideals of beauty :for their society. In the last year an exquisite statue of Clio has been added to the hall. Clionian has been marked for literary achievements, dignity and honor. Her alumnae are famous all over the World, oecupying high places in various fields of activity. In all these fifty-'five years of her successful career, interest in the society has never Flagged, her condition was never more prosperous than it is today, and in accordance with her motto she is ever pressing onward to grander achievements. 156 CLIONIAN SENIORS.

CLIONIAN SOPHOMORES CLIONIAN FRESHMEN Athenaeum oi the Past In the rude chapel of the old seminary with its baeklcss benches, rough table and ancient blackboard, with no piano, no canopy, no colors, nothing except a strip of muslin stretched across the plat- form, on which was painted their motto and pin-here our fore- sisters of Ohio Vtfesleyan held their first literary programs. Their society was called the Social Uniony' to which all the 'girls be- longed. Out of it grew the Red Apron society, later known as HClio, and when in 1861, Clio became too large, Athenaeum was founded. - As a motto the girls took Sense, Shortness and Salt, and they modeled their pin after Ulio's, an enamel band across which was Athenaeum. Soon, however, they began to east about for a pin which should be really their own. Just then a young army officer came to Delaware, wearing a pin which combined the corps badges of two Michigan regiments, one a star, the other a ereseent. This pin became the model for our present crescent and star. At first the pin was small, but it gradually increased in size until it at- tained quite immense proportions. Then, as Dr. Duvall puts it, retrogradation eommeneed, and it is now within the original bounds. Dr. McCabe gave the girls Timber as their motto and they put this on their pin. But what of Athenaeum 's girls? On the whole they have been broad-minded, enthusiastic girls, who interspersed their long and tedious programs with gay festivities and good time parties. ln their early history they entered the intercollegiate debates and Were, for the most part, victorious. Almost two thousand of these girls have gone out from Ohio Wtwsleyan. Athenaeum 's aluninae have made her what she is and the noble household of Athena is destined to grow and prosper in succeeding generations. 159 ATHENAEFBI SENIORS ATHENAEUM JUNIORS ATHENAEUM SOPHOMORES ATHENAEUM FRESHMEN 'Ox Ny 1 X LQ EN, fbi 9' f Q fl I , f x Q AZ f TA L, 0 'Kg-Q5 -2-E133 + J Gm Q ,f J Em Q0 G EMM X el TW 7 fo 9 f YES Q9 C9 Wg 3 V'lOTTO'FFl?cglXD'gEiI:f: FgJExla'LOli-ILIZQICITER. j lpcx COLOR?gC?S.6P1ClsIf2SID GRAY.

An investigation of the subject shows that in 1850, when the Ohio XVcsleyan University was still in its infancy, the patrons of that in- stitution, having sent their sons to college, desired,.if possible, to educate their daughters in the same vicinity with their sons. Fur- thermore, families living in Delaware wished to secure educational facilities for their entire families, instead of only half. XVith the growth of the University, this sense of need more and 1no1'c increased, and at last Rev. and Mrs. XVilliam Grissell, in Sept. 1850, opened a school for ladies in South Delaware. The attendance at first only eighteen, soon numbered more than a hundred, and the old school building would not afford ample accommodations. Ef- forts were then put forth to secure a more attractive and more suitable locality. At that time the William Little villa was erected on the site where lllonnett now stands. It was a lovely old-fashioned home surrounded by hill and vale, running streams, springs, fruits and flowers. The structure was low and broad, with its white walls stretching into protecting wings and galleries running the whole length reached by broad flights of stairs. This place was immediate- ly decided upon, owing to its pleasing locality. Mr. Little was at first loath to part with his home, but eventually consented, if it would be used for educational purposes and no other. So in April, 1853, the college was incorporated under the statute laws of Ohio and a seal was adopted. It was a circular design with the inscription, Ohio Wesleyan Female College, 1853, around the margin the motto, Ecclesiac et Familiae, and within the center an open book, with the inscription, Holy Bible. So having se- cured a location and a name, the Ohio lVeslcyan Female College was ready to make history. Additional room was soon found to be necessary and a plain two-story frame structure was erected to the left of the old mansion 168 for temporary relief. The lower lioor was used jointly as the chapel and main recitation room. It was furnished with wooden benches and blaekboards, four chairs, and a low platform upon which stood a table holding a Bible and hymn book. Here was where religious services were held daily at 8:45. Over the chapel were two rooms. One was the habitation of the teacher of French and the instructor in painting, the other was used as the art studio, fitted up with rude easels and seats, while a primitive set of shelves served as the rest- ing place for palettes and brushes when they were not in use. These buildings sufficed until 1855, when they were torn down, and one of the wings of our present I-Iall was erected, and then after a few more years the ce11tral part of the other wing. This was made possible by the timely help of llliss Mary Monnett, a graduate of the class of '59, who generously proffered 310,000.00 toward the in- stitution. ller gift was so much appreciated that in recognition of it, the whole building bears the name of Hlllonnett Hallf' NYith the growth of the College and the University, a union of the two institutions was anticipated on the part of the authorities of the College. The advantages of co-education socially, intel- lectually and religiously, were foreseen, Izut it was not until 1877 that the union was eifeeted. Even then the chapel exercises and many recitations were conducted separately, but later on they were merged. The growing attendanee of the ladies showed the union was not a failure, and in 1.890 Monnett was enlarged to twice its former size. . The Monnett of today is four stories high and accommodates three hundred girls. The entrance is made beautiful by a large stone porch with flower-boxes between the columns. In season these boxes are filled with the liorist's choicest products. The corridors and alcoves of the lower floor are adorned with famous art paint- ings, while the loggia, recently completed, displays several pieces of famous statuary. The parlors, library and reading-room and a large well-lighted dining room with seating capacity for all the ladies at once, are on the lower floor. The upper floors, accessible by several wide stairways and an elevator, contain besides the many suites and single rooms, three tastefully furnished halls for the Ladies' Literary societies and a large assembly hall or chapel. But lllonnett Hall with all its improvements means nothing to us if we do not take into consideration the life of the Monnett girls. lt is at the fudge parties and table feasts, around the hammoclzs on the campus in the spring, or in those long confidential talks on Sun- 169 day nights that we learn to enjoy the democratic spirit that prevails Within its walls. Our lessons and our worries we may forget, but these happy associations, never, and every loyal Monnctt girl can join truthfully in singing: Yes, 'tis Old Monnettg We shall nc'cr forget, May her influence, power and fame live long, Then three cheers you bet, for dear old Monnett, NVe will give them a thousand strong.

A guitar was being strummed by a boy lounging with feet tucked under him in the window seat, while another was sprawled out on the bed, Hjes' lazyin' 'round on this fair May day. At the study table sat Monk Martlin trying to digest a few more pages of Green's History. Ile was not making much headway for a medley of bird notes coming thru the open windows held his attention until suddenly at the call of a vireo he threw a book at Morrison who was picking at the guitar, and said: Listen a minute, can 't you? His word was well placed, but unintentionally so. Up the front stairs there came a wild Indian whoop and the sound of some one kicking as if at a dozen doors at once. A few more yells, and then up the stairs three at a time came a tornado of flesh and bone which, with a wild whirl in the middle of the room and a slam of its hat into the corner, gave one jump landing on the bed half across the form of Sanders. The storm resolved itself into Zip Elder, but by that time two boys were sitting on him while the third was shaking him by the collar of his jersey. Say, if you haven 't any better sense than to come in here like that we'll do our best to pound some into you. 'What's wrong with you anyhow? NVrong, gurgled the still kicking but almost exhausted boy. Wrong! Why nothing's wrong. Everything is all right. VVhoop! O, say hold me, hold me tight before I bust. NVell, come on. Wl13t,S up? You'd better tell us before we decide that you are a hopeless lunatic and throw you out of the win- dow. lVait until I get my breath, ean't you? You're choking me worse than Monk there does when he gets to dreaming about Bess some night after a Sem date. Let loose there, Sandy. But the luckless Sanders, not quick enough in the get-away, was Hung half across the room. Now listen to this.', went on Zip as he opened the crumpled letter in his hand. '4Dcar Son: I'm in a hurry, but will take time to tell you I do not forget that twenty years ago to- 77 176 day you came to the Elder home and liked it so well that you stayed. I send best wishes for lots of years and happiness. This check may help in the latter, and you can use it as you want. Very lovingly, Father. Say, wouldn,t that jar you? And just before the Big Six Meet too, when I was so broke that the sight of a penny made me sick. Yes, son, We congratulate you, but how much does it stand for? queried Morrison. Didn't I tell you? NVhy, it's for fifty dollars. Ilurray for Dad I say, and to show that it's no frost, everyone come on to the Greek 's and we'll spoil part of it anyhow. Get your lids on every- one and come on. Sandy, you blooming Freshman, call up and get the other fellows down. Why, what's the matter Monk? Aren't you well? Come on out of it. From the hall came the voice of Sanders as he yelled at the top of his voice, Everybody down! Money from home for Zip, and a big feed at the Greek's! Oyez! Oyez! Oyez! But the faee of Martlin as he lay on the bed didnlt brighten any at the prospect of the fun, and he turned to Zip with a shake of the head as he said: No, I guess I ain't feeling very well. Go on and have your fun and I'l1 take a treat on you later. A rush of feet came along the hallway and Zip joined the others with a regretful, IVell, so long, roomie. Better sleep. The man in the room alone rose from his seat and went over to the window. IIe stood looking out into the bright May sunshine, but there was no answering brightness in his face. Instead there was a scowl decidedly foreign to him and from his lips there fell muttered half-sentences. No, you're right. I'm not feeling well. Owing twenty dollars at the house here. Have to get some clothes soon if I'm to look decent. Not a red cent to do it with. Zip has plenty of money, yet he gets the cheek. O, darn it, I wish I was home and out of this. IVhen Zip had come up with his good news he had brought Monk's mail as well, so seeing this on the chairiby the door Martlin went over to see what had come. As he read, he mused aloud. I wonder who has written in this plain envelope, it's cheap looking at least. O thunder! That tailor 's bill. again. 'Why doesn't he stop writing? He knows that I will pay him when I get a little ahead.- I get a little ahead. That's the way it goes tho : Zip gets the checks and I get the duns. O well, I guess I can stand it if he ean. I won- der who Morgan and Morgan of Columbus are and what they want of me. I'll bet it 's another bill. What! 'You do not know me. but sometime ago I learned of you thru one of your professors and as 177 you are getting ready for the mission field I decided to help you along a little if you are not too proud to receive help. Enclosed you will find some bills that ought to take care of you for some little time. NVith sincere good wishes and prayers for your success, I am yours, G. J. Morgan. -Good Lord! Five-ten-f1fteen-twenty- thirty-forty-fifty! Fifty dollars and all out of a clear sky! O, where are the fellows so that I can celebrate too. But I wonder wl1o G. J. Morgan is, and what he means by my studying for missionary work. Say, do you suppose he got me mixed with that bone-head in the Junior class, the one who got some of my letters once? Let 's see the envelope again. It says J. S. Martlin all right tho it isn't very plain, so he must mean me. But how could he get the idea that I am studying to be cannibal-bait? XVhere's that student directory? I'll just take a look and see what that Martlin's initials are-I-Im.- Le-Lo-Ma-Here we are. Why, they are J. S. too-I wonder- say, this must be intended for him, it couldn't possibly be for me. After a moment 's thought he continued. That means that I must return the money to him. Monk went over tothe window again and looked out, a picture of dejeetion once more. All the happy dreams that had come to him in these few mo- ments, dreams of bills paid off, of good times with Bess Guthery since he could now aford a drive or two out into the country, of all that money could get him in the way of good-fellowship for a while -the whole glittering castle was now in a heap of ruins, and there was nothing to show for it all but a heart sore and disappointed. As he went over and over in his mind the disappointment of the day, a little suggestion came whirling into his mind, all spangled with gold a11d smiling with promise. Creeping close to his dearest dreams, it whispered, 'tIVhat is the use of sending that money to Martlin? You see it is all right for you to have the money for you can pay off some of your debts and thus do some good. No one could ever find you out. Don't you see? The money is sent loose -in an envelope and is delivered to the wrong address, it can 't be traced to you. You could destroy the letter and there would be nothing in the world to show that you had it. Why, you would he a fool Monk, to turn down this chance. So ran the suggestion and that it had brot a fierce temptation could be seen from the face of Martlin. Now he would set his jaw firmly, again it would loosen and his eyes would light up with a desire for the good times, while anon would come a gleam of tenderness as he thot of the pleasure he could give to the girl he loved. I As he was fighting his battle, his eyes involuntarily turned to 178 771' . - K E ,.., -5, hx - wc- A F K 1 S- A 'L ,.,,1n . ,'.',-. . 1.-'f n wc Q x. gX J 1 f X 'fun ,ff X N x , ' ' x H .

Illartlin, eityng then he folded the money and was put- ting it inside when his eyes were caught by the dun that was still lying' on tl1e floor. IIis hands stopped their work, fell at his side. Ile thot for a minute, thot so hard that the sweat stood in heads on his forehead. Ile looked long' at the floorg l1e unfolded the money and counted it almost as in a dream. The jaws set with a snap, the hands tore the newly addressed envelope into hits and followed that aet by destroying the letter from IxlOl'g'?1I15 then a whistling boy went out of the room and down town to try to find the fellows. II. Evening' had come, an evening full of the promise of scarlet and gold, fit close to one of the rarest of May days. On the river was a slender canoe cutting the water as silently as the shadow-canoe re- flected beside it, and in it were two forms which likewise were quiet in the hush of nature that preceded tl1e night. lt was not the time for jest and jollity, and Bess Guthery and Monk Martlin were think- ing of deeper things, only occasionally speaking. Bess broke the long silence by saying, Jimsy. an evening like this brings me face to faee with my better self. Doesnit it work that way with you? Yes, it does. 'When I'm away from the fellows and am out where nature 's God is, I don't feel like the same Monk. It seems as if I could not do wrong under-- There he stopped for memory brot a black cloud over his heart. Silence was king for a moment then Of course you couldn't. I-roke in the girl. Why you are always good. I know it for I know you. I couldn't imagine you doing a little thing, a sneaking thing under any eonsideration for you're different from other boys. She did not notice that the face of the man was elouding over and she could not notice that in his heart was a battle of emotions, but it was there and was fierce as any eonfiict he had ever passed thru. Ile hadythe money in his pocket and could feel the pressure of it against his breastg but on the other hand he eould see in the gathering darkness the sweet outlines of a face :fairly aglow with love for him and he knew that in the heart before him was trust which it were criminal to betray, So the strife went on. She looked up and smiled from her seat amid the cushions in the stern., As the 179 ' Q bow of the canoe rounded the bend above the boat house, she who had been wondcringly noting his quietness and abstraction, saw him straighten back his shoulders and seizing the paddle send the boat with a vigorous stroke to the landing. But she could not hear the voice in his heart that said: I'm going to be something like what she thinks me to.be. That money goes back. Down into town they strolled both quiet, he from the effect of the struggle he had passed thru and she from the appeal that nature had made to her. As they reached the point where the town clock could be seen, Monk said with a start, Why, it 's way after six, kid. You won't be able to get any supper at home, will you? No, I don't suppose that I will for they eat early, but then I don 't care. I'm not hungry at all and I have had sucl1 a glorious afternoon that I don't want to eat anyhow. Is that self' he drawled. 'tWell, maybe you think so, but all the same you are going to end the day right. It 's one 's duty to keep from being hungry I think, and just a little ways ahead is the Delicatessen where you and I are going to have some supper. Just think-a couple of eggs, nicely browned on a thin slice of ham, some brown bread, some cocoa that will fairly glide down-XVowl It makes me hungry to think of it. Since you mention it, I am a little hungry, but honestly, J imsy, I don't want to go in. I have cost you enough this term without your buying my meals. Say, who's running this anyhow? Here we are, and seizing her arm he swung toward the door, saying and you'rc going to have a tcte-a-tete supper with me. Supper over, and a supper too that had made them glad that they were young and had been out in the open where they could work up good appetites they passed out to the eashier's desk where Martlin stopped to pay. Bess walked on. Ile laid the checks down on the counter and then reached into his pocket for the change. A blank expression came to his face as he found no money there, and then he remembered that he had paid up his long-standing laundry bill with the last of his own money that he had possessed. Just a few moments he stood there inactive, but in them he had fought all over again the battle which he had supposed settled at the river. He thot of the embarrassment of asking for credit, he looked at the girl, his eyes fell to the floor momentarily, then from an inner pocket he pulled a bill-book and from it extracted a five dollar note. The first of the stolen money was spent. 180 III. Not a minute too soon did he enter the chapel doors, for as he was going in he heard the gong ring and the doors were closed. I-Ie found his seat as the last heavy notes of the organ were thrilling the air and the low transitory ones were swinging into the opening chant. He joined in with his full tones, glad in every nerve that he was alive on such a day, and as the announcements were being read he thot how good it was to feel that he did not have to worry about the petty expenses that would be turning up during the weeks that were coming. The ethics of his act had ceased to bother him and he was at peace with all the world. VVhen the hymn was given out, the old college favorite Jude, it was with little thot that he listened to the organ as it played it over, but when he reached the second verse it was with a vague feeling of uneasiness that he followed: Jesus calls us from the worship, Of the vain world's golden store 5 From each idol that would keep us, Saying, Christian, love me more. XVhen the last low-toned Amen had been sung, he was in a quieter mood, serious now, instead of carelessly happy as before. It was not the lesson of the morning that impressed him particularly, altho it was the story of the denial of Peter and that had always been an interesting portion of the Word to Monk whenever he paid any attention to it at all. But when the president commented briefly he listened as he had never- listened because it seemed as if every word were spoken directly at him. I sometimes wonder, said the speaker, if it is not true that to every one of us there comes a time when like this brave, im- petuous, human Peter we turn our backs upon the best that is in us. We forget that we have ideals and we deny the divine, then out into the dark we go where in anguish of soul we wonder whether there be anything in us that is at all worth while. I know that often- times at such crisis a man will decide that for him there is nothing more of good and that there is no use trying. The game is not worth the candle. That is just the time when a man can either get his most in- spiring view of the plan of God for him, or he can slip from his moorings down to the lowest depth of life. It 's a time for him to look up, for him to have some ideal more than mere earthly ones to which he can fasten his hopes and then he will come out of the strug- gle-with a blot on his heart it is true for a man never denied Christ 181 u without leaving a scar on his character, but with a stronger belief in the divine in himself than he ever knew before. I tell you, when 1 look at the faces pictured on yonder wall, it seems to me that a Wesleyan student has no excuse for going wrong permanently, because when in the gloom of diseouragement hc feels that all is lost he can think over the names that the old school has left to us today for our inheritance and he can know that every man of them all was human to the uttermost, yet lived a life that has blessed thousands. He can hear the voices of multitudes of alumni thanking God for such examples, and he must know that no Vifesleyan man can do a little thing, a sneaking wrong, for the heritage these men have left is one that embodies a belief in Jesus Christ, a belief in the divinity of manhood, and a profound knowl- edge that it is only the coward who remains down before a once- victorious sin- -Shall we bow in prayer? IMI it il' it 123 it ill 'll' ill' Under the dark evergreens whose thick foliage almost hid the stars from sight and only faintly allowed the light of the moon to trickle thru, on to where the huge maples stretched their thinly- clad limbs to the sky, pleading with the Spring to give more warmth and covering, he went, then seeing a grassy runway leading down to tl1e edge of the water he turned aside and went near. A half-de- cayed log lay there, brown old monument of the tree that had lived and died by the water, and on it Monk seated himself. Ile had no purpose in coming, he merely wanted to be alone and here was a spot that he had often visited when he was out for a stroll, so his steps almost involuntarily sought it now. It was a scene of almost unreal beauty that lay spread before his eyes, but with only half-vision did he see it. The dusky bank opposite was merged into one effect of blackish-green in the dim light, the trees and earth joining in one mass of background while in the nearer parts of the scene lay the water of the lake silvered now by the light of the waxing moon in a long path that ever and anon was broken into hundreds of shining l ows by the leap of a fish. No sounds of civilization were heard except the occasional whistle of an engine and that so mellowed by distance that it blended well with the general effect. Along the bank and in the swampy ground up the lake were seemingly millions of hylas shrilling their nocturnal song. That was all that could be heard save once when a harsh quawk frightened him a bit until his senses told him that it was but a night heron at work along the shore. 182 A calm that was in tune with all Nature brooded over Martlin a calm it was tho that only allowed the voices of the inner man to be heard more distinctly. 1Ie seemed to be made up of many parts. One that was ordinarily occupied with the common round of duties now was quiet, one that seemed to be the lower self was in strange unrest, while another that stood for the best in him was beating its way around as if winged. He did not now hear the voices of his comrades as he had his good times with them, he did not now see before him the evidence of the bills he owed-all that he saw or heard was made up of the real things of his life, the good words he had listened to in days gone by, the ideals which he had set for him- self and which he had so blackly smirched, the good infiuences of the mother Who, tho she had never spoken to him much a'iout Chris- tianity, always stood to him as the living exponent of it. He had no ears for the ordinary things, he had no time for them. As he thot and thot, it was the voice of the president he heard in the calls of the night, as he mused, it was the picture of the faces of the 'grand old men of the college that he saw in the ghostly light. Other things had passed away. He could hear every once in a while the louder splash of Water down the lake and that took form until it was the voice of Nature-and, of Nature's God repeating, it is only the coward who remains down before a once-victorious sin. He looked out across the lake and in the dim distance he seemed to seethe faces that had been haunting him all day long, faces of strength foreshadowing the power that the old University stood for, but back of them there was another face now, one that he had not noticed before, the face that he realized had been the inspiration of their lives, yes the face that really was the college ideal for which these men had lived. He saw the 'face that at home he had hanging on the wall, the face of the Christ, only instead of being a dull im- press of sepia on paper, it was now living, quivering with a power he had never seen in it before. All the infinite love and pity of the Christ-life was in this face, all that Ile longed for in the life of Martlin was limned there, While the eyes fairly burned in the in- tensity of the gaze that seemed to come into the very soul of the boy. He sat as if transfixed, silent, almost motionless except for a tremb- ling that he could not still and scarcely heeded at all in the might of the emotion that thralled him. The vision faded into the green of the trees once more. Ilis breath came with a shuddering sigh and all 7 the idealism of his life was drawn out by that dream. Up to the stars he looked, over to where the great disc of silver hung in the deep of the sky, then back of the stars and moon to where he im- 183 agined the vision l1ad been born, and he said, low-voiced, but with all the passion of earnestness in his tone, That money goes back tonight, stars, and I go back a new Martlinf' Not very much later that night, a letter was mailed at the little green hex on the corner and in it were fifty dollars accompanied by a note of explanation and apology that Martlin had felt was neces- sary. He had borrowed with ease from his more fortunate room- mate, had with a sigh scaled the letter,-and Monk Martlin had come to his own. He was a man now, grown in a day and a night, brot to his full stature by the influence of some men who had lived their ideal and by the Ideal whom they lived. F.

Ferguson Mission Study, R. B. Wise Mission Fund C. H. LaRue I The Young Mon 's Clfiistian Association has had a year of honest work and bright promise. It is just now passing through a period of transition. The old plan of hiring a different General Secretary each succeeding year has been abandoned, we hope, forever. With the installment of J. E. Baldridge as General Secretary has come permanence in the executive office and a bright outlook for the future of the work. The financial standing of the Association is in splendid shape for the present, and if plans are realized it will be a short time only until We shall have our much needed Y. M. C. A. Building and all the equipment that will make Christian work a very positive influence in the life of every male student of the University. It should be said that the conventions at Niagara, Rochester and Springfield have given great impetus to the Association work, through its delegates. As a result the Advisory and Executive Com- mittees and the Cabinet will be more efficiently organized this year than in the past. The value of this fact is immeasurable. Finally, the Y. M. C. A. is free from debt, with money in the treasury, its officers are the best, its spirit is fine, and this condition will continue if responsibility is felt among those concerned. This is a period of transition, therefore all are needed as never before to lend a hand. 193 K 4 Presideitt, Vice Presicleott, Town Vice Presideott, Y. W. C. A. Officers for 1909-10.

This is the motto and working principle of the Young Women's Christian Association, and the aim of the organization is to promote growth in Christian character-to apply the principles of Christianity to everyday life. The Ohio Wesleyan Association is one of the largest in the state and its activities are varied, as may be seen from the large number of committees. As We have no resident student secretary, the work is carried on entirely by the girls and while this is perhaps a little burdensome sometimes, it nevertheless gives invaluable training in Christian work. 195 Student Volunteer Band Never have opportunities for service for one's fellow-men been larger and more varied than now. In lands where unselflsh service is most needed, where the people are beginning to realize the in- sufficiency of their pagan religion, there are Wide open doors. To meet the demands and obligations that this age of opportunity places upon us as Christian students, there has arisen the Student Volun- teer Movement--a movement World-wide in its scope and mission. Its purpose is to enlist the college men and Women of America in the great cause of foreign missions. lts watch-word, The Evange- lization of the World in this Generation , offers a task large and far-reaching enough to challenge the best and the strongest of men and Women that the colleges have to give. The Student Volunteer Band of Ohio Wesleyan represents in this college this great forward movement. The organization is made up of those who have come to a definite decision regarding their personal relations to world-evangelization, having signed the declaration: It is my purpose, if God permit, to become a foreign missionary. Each week the members meet for devotional services and discussion of missionary needs and problems. The year of 1910 will be a memorable year in the history of the Student Volunteer Movement and to Student Volunteers because of the Rochester Convention where were gathered four thousand men and women representing the colleges of the United States and Canada. Here the emphasis was not only placed upon the need for missionaries, but also upon quality. The complexity of missionary problems and changing conditions in the Far East require men and women of superior abilities ,and thorough all-round training Who know how to think and act. The increased tasks demand the high- est type of leadership. As Dr. Zwemer has said, the missionary campaign is not for raw recruits but for generals. And where but from the colleges are to come these men and women trained for generalship 'I 196 l Throughout the United States there has been awakened a greater missionary enthusiasm and activity as a result of what the Laymen's Missionary Movement has been doing. This great move- ment among the business men of the country has grown out of the Student Volunteer movement. These successful business men stand- ing ready to furnish money, this great task of the world's evangelization offer a challenge to the college man and women who have their lives to give. Oflicers.

Brown October 19, 1909, at a meeting of the oilicers of the two organiza- tions, the Ohio Wesleyan Federation for Social Service and the Student Volunteers for Home Missions were united into one or- ganization under tho name of the Ohio Wesleyan Social Service League. The iirst meeting of the new League was held October 21st, at which Dr. llerbert Welch spoke and the new Constitution was formally adopted. The purpose of the Social Service League is to create a greater interest in social service, to study social movements, to initiate social service in Delaware, and to co-operate with volunteer agencies already doing such service. To this end the League has a regular outline for study. During the Fall term the subject was Social- ism, discussed by the speakers, by open discussions, and the ques- tion box. The speakers were Dr. Herbert Welch, Professor G. G. Groat, Professor Lucy Dean Jenkins, Hon. Harry W. Crist, Rev. M. Brodie, Mr. George L. McNutt and Mr. H. G. Rogers. A devotional meeting is held once each month. The topic for the Winter term is The Relation of the Church to Social Service Movements. The Rev. F. L. Wharton, of Columbus, was the iirst speaker on this sub- ject. The practical work taken up by the League consists of meetings at the jail and shops, Bible classes at the city Y. M. C. A., regular music at the City Hospital and Aged Peoples' Home, and aid to the needy by securing employment or by gifts of useful articles. At Christmas time, with the ce-operation of the Epworth Leagues of the city, twenty-two large packages of clothing, shoes, bed-clothing, toys and books, were distributed to families in town who had pre- viously been visited and found Worthy of assistance. A Christmas tree with decorations and gifts was taken to the Aged Peoples' llome and another one to a family south of town. Plans are being made for a club-room in South Delaware, to be opened as soon as Iinances permit. Magazines, books, music and games will be 'Eur- nished, and a gymnasium class will be formed by Mr. Wright and Mr. Ricketts. This club room will be kept open during the summer by the city Y. M. C. A.

The Bauble has made its appearance, and spreads mirth and nlerriment in this body oil? students, and no bogus has thus far been issued. The appearance of a legitimate vehicle for jests and student sentiment has been the signal for the disappearance of a black spot on the Ohio XVesleyan eseutcheon.

To be a positive force in the upbuilding of the University and in the organization of an ideal college society, to be witty and in earnest at one and the same time, and to encourage the writing of light verse and fiction, is the policy of this sheet, and the future will tell whether or no there is a, place for such a paper Jin the heart of the O.

Its rank as one of the learned' societies is due to the fact that effective public speak- ing is impossible without literary, scientific and moral training. Delta Sigma Rho has had a rapid but conservative growth. There are ,now twenty-one chapters in the leading colleges of the country, seven having been added during the past year, viz.: Yale, Harvard, Beloit, Iowa State, Brown, Texas and Pennsylvania.

The Oberlin Team The question: Resolved, that all corporations engaged in in- terstate commerce should be compelled to take out a Federal Char- ter, constitutionality conceded. Before perhaps tl1e largest and most enthusiastic audience which ever attended a debate in Gray Chapel, Ohio Wesleyan met her old rival Oberlin on the evening of March fourth. Justice William C. Davis, of the Ohio Supreme Court presided, and the judges were Judge J. J. Adams, Zanesville, O., Mr. George T. Spahr, Columbus, O., and I-Ion. Edward L. Weinland, Columbus, O. Ohio Wesleyan was able to convince two of these judges that federal incorporation was necessary. The victory was especially sweet since Oberlin had beaten us the year before at Oberlin. The victorious team was com- posed of E. R. Jones, '10, G. J. Slosser, '11, R. W. Sockman, '11, and J. R. Price, '10, alternate. The Western Reserve Team It is hard to win from an opposing team on their own platform, but to put up winning arguments is possible. This the negative team did, which met Western Reserve on the evening of March the fourth and defended the negative of the question before stated. It fourth and defended the negative of the question before stated. They contended in that don't-give-up-the-ship spirit and only recognized defeat when tl1e judges decided two to one in Reserve 's Favor. II. VV. Ricketts, of the senior class, was alternate on the Oberlin team in 1909. S. C. Weist and II. W. Leaeh, both Juniors, were on the debate squad last year. All three of the men made their first appearance as 'Varsity speakers in this debate against ex- perieneed debaters. This fact makes their work all the more creditable. E. R. Parks, who was the alternate, is of the class of 1911. The SyI'aCllS6 Team This year a new departure was made in the Vtfesleyan debate policy for a team was sent East to meet Syracuse University. This is the longest trip for debate purposes that any O. W. U. team has ever taken, but it has established relations with the sister Methodist school on a good footing. The subject' debated Was, Resolved, that, aside from the constitutionality of the question, a graduated income tax should be a part of our Federal system of taxation. The nega- tive was upheld by I. T. Gilruth, '10, A. P. Martin, '10, and F. T. Cartwright, '11, with W. L. Schwartz, '10, as alternate. The debate was a good example of the difference between the Eastern and 222 Vifestern styles of debate, the former slow and dignified, the latter fast and heated. While the local team was defeated, it was by a split decision, and the judge whose vote decided the question gave H238 points to Wesleyan and 239 to Syracuse. The Denison Team Ohio Wesleyan met and defeated a new foe in debate this year. On the evening of March 11th, a team from Denison University came to Delaware to uphold the affirmative of the same question, which had thrice been decided in favor of the affirmative the Week before. Ohio Wesleyan was represented by a team of new dehaters, as far as inter-collegiate work was concerned. XV. W. Cary, of the class of 1910, was a member of the debate class three years ago, and G. C. Lacy, a 1911 man, and NV. D. Gray of the class of '12, were opponents in the Sophomore-Freshman debate of last year. W. W. Wheeler, was alternate. The able work done by this team left no doubt in the minds of the large audience in Gray Chapel, or in the opinion of the judges, that the negative of the question had been upheld, and an unanimous decision was rendered.

The day of prejudicial and radical criticism is past, and, although we read considerable about reform in football, we rarely hear of one ad- vocating the abolition of this or any other college sport. The phenomenal growth of this comparatively new college activity has, of course, been attended by some perplexing problems. Two critic- isms have sometimes been made against college athletics as they are carried on today: First, it is claimed that only a few men par- ticipate in college sports, and seeondly. these few too often over- emphasize athletics to the detriinent of their scholarship. It is pos- sible that such criticisms hold at some institutions, but that they in no way apply to athletics at Ohio Nllesleyan all must admit. Our eighty thousand dollars gymnasium still holds the record as T-eing unsurpassed hy any in the state as regards equipment, and our athletic field, when sodded, will he the finest in the state. Two baseball or football games, a track meet and a tennis tournament may be going on at once without in the least interfering with one another. The grandstand, bleachers and athletic field represent the outlay of 2l4l2,000, but even the most prejudiced visitor would con- sider tlie money well spent should he view the field in the fall or spring when a hundred students engage in healthy, manly sports each evening. The gymnasium work is carried on under the competent direc- tion and management of the Physical Director, Mr. J. NV. Page, and the athletic teams have been coached this year by Mr. L. NV. St. Jolm. Mr. St. John came to us from NYooster after having turned out many a winning team and thereby putting iWooster in the front rank in Ohio athletics. The success of our coach is obviously attested by our athletic record this year. Of comparatively new material he made a 'football team of which we were justly proudg in basketball we had an especially strong quintet, and of baseball the prospects are bright. Surely athletics would not be justified in any school if they were not supported with a general interest by the students and faculty. But they are justified at Ohio NVesleyan and XVesleyan spirit is com- , 229 ing more and more to stand for hearty lung and pocketbook support. Our yell leader, Mr. P. XV. Evans, has proved his ability to evoke such yelling from the student body as has never been equaled, either in volume or quality. At those never-to-be-forgotten Monnett foot- ball celebrations, in the light of those great bonfires, our enthusiasm is kindled which not only inspires our team to victory but also creates that coveted unanimity in the student body. During the past few years a system of inter-class athletic con- tests have been worked out with most favorable results. At first a great advantage was given to the Freshmen by barring all wearers of the NNW' from participation in such contests, but during the past year WW men were allowed to play on class basketball teams, and. under certain limitations, on class track teams. The result has been a most interesting series of inter-class contests, the creation of a spirit of friendly rivalry, and the development of valuable material for varsity teams. At the suggestion of Coach St. John a small ad- mission fee was cha1'ged at the double-header inter-class basketball games. and in this way a neat sum was obtained toward paying off the athletic debt. We are justly proud of the fact that so many students partici- pate in athletics. A conservative estimate made by the physical director places the number of participants at three hundred, fifty of whom are 'WV' men. Basketball and baseball each attract about l50 students each season and football and track work give exercise to nearly as many. If statistics were to be more fully indulged in, we could show that our representatives in intercollegiate contests are not the poor students, but that their scholarship is even above the average in some cases. Thus the two general criticisms of college athletics mentioned above certainly do not hold at Ohio NVesleyan. ln many respects athletic conditions are ideal at NVesleyan. for we have nearly everything that any school can claim, including a men 's gymnasium, a competent coach, and an athletic debt. How- ever, it is only natural that we should want to differ from most other schools in some respects. But the growing sentiment seems to c that the best way to differ would be to dispense with the athletic debt and in its place annex a gymnasium for the women of the uni- versity. 230 T'Bl1 '- VARSITY Football It is usually dillieult to predict, at the beginning, what a season may have in store for a football team, but this season was especially problematic, and doubtful in its outcome. NVith only Baker and Patton of last ycar's regulars hack, it was clear that much green material must be worked in. But our efficient coach was equal to the occasion, and from the large number who were out for practice, good varsity material was soon selected, Naturally, the Sophomore class :Furnished her men to fill the vacant ranks, some of whom already have proved themselves to he of the stuff that All-State men are made. Of this class Hicks, Lit- tick, Rathburn. Nottingham, Thomssen, liittle, Curl, Severence, Shepherd and McClure won a position on the team. Besides those of last year 's experience, and the '12 aggregation, Hicks, of 'Varsity of some years ago, McDowell, of '11 and Gilruth, a senior, completed the team. Baker was elected captain in Stautfei-'s stead, who was unable to play because of a had knee. ' The first game of the inter-collegiate schedule was with Findlay college on our own sod. It was all against the visitors from the blow of the whistle till the game was called off, but even then, the score of twenty-three to nothing was not as large' as some had expected. Kenyon gave us eleven to naught a week later. Their superior interference, consistent team work, and self-confidence brought them tl1e victory. But the least deserved defeat of the season, in fact of Ohio NVesleyan's athletic history, was that suffered ly the team at the hands of Oberlin, Eve to nothing. On a wet, soggy field. 'Wesleyan's old rival won another unchallenged victory, in spite of a genuine scare St. John 's eleven gave them at the beginning. State interference and Captain Jones' individual work tells the tale. The second victory of the season came as the result of superior team work over the NVooster eleven. Otterbein had the hest team in l1er history, but it was not strong enough to leave Captain Baker 's men the small end of the score-. NVith 'Varsity as the victim, Case fought for victory and death, the first sl1e won, the second, al- most-for some of our men. The season closed with a twenty-three to six score against Denison. The victory was especially sweet be- cause the Baptists had been so confident of their success. 233 V Y llllllllgllllllt thu NPZISUII tln- nwnllwrs ul' tlw fl'2l,llI llnw menu fvstml il spirit of pluvlc :mil umlzmntvml ''sticl:-to-itiwilvss . ox' 1 zlgmiilst In-:ivy mlcls, as ll'vw tl-anis lmvv Sll0W11.

VARSITY BASKETBALL Basketball This year 's basketball season was ushered in by an all-together new experiment. Formerly, all inter-class basketball games have bee11 played ly men who are not wearers, nor prospective wearers, of the W . Coach St. John threw down the bars, letting the H W 1nen participate, and played oft the inter-class series during the last weeks of the fall term before the season proper opened. The ex- periment was successful in two respects: lt gave the coach a notion of the best 'Varsity material, and created much enthusiasm between classes, which materialized into dollars and ce11ts for the Associa- tio11 in the form of admission fees. A holiday trip, similar to last year's venture, was taken tl1e last few days of the vacation. On this trip the coach took Littiek, Thompson, Thomssen, Rathburn and LeSourd, all new men to 'Var- sity basketball, and Daniels and Cope, of last ycar's team. The pro- ject was not a phenomenal success in point of victories, but it gave Coach St. John an insight into the needs and deficiencies of his play- ers. besides giving the new men experience on foreign Hoors, and getting them accustomed to hostile audiences. Of the four games two were ours-Galion and Buehtel. 'l'he inter-collegiate season opened very auspiciously with vic- tories over our first two opponents--Kenyon and Capitol Uni- versities. The Columbus men were an easy mark for the 'Varsity, and the Kenyon five served merely as practice for XVcsleytan-an easy revenge for Kenyon ls deal to us on the gridiron in the fall. In both these games 'Baker showed that he had good football material in him and practically cinehed his place as guard for the rest of the season. Oberlin slightly outplayed us, on account of Cope's absence from the live, but Denison, deprived of Livingston, let us run up the lar- gest seore of the season. NVe couldn't finish first at State, in spite of the hearty support from the side lines, but the next 'Saturday Ken- yon. on her own dance lioor, lost to us by 45 to 26, and in the mean- time the Western Reserve illfedies gave the ,Varsity their fourth vie- tory. 'l'he Oberlin five left Wesleyan in little doubt as to their super- iority on their home floor, when they gave us the little end of a 57-9 score. 'l'he team celebrated the 22nd before twelve hundred people. i11 true Washingtonian style. with Wooster as the victim, and the fol- lowing Saturday had a practice game with Otterbein. 236 Coach St. -lohn believes in giving his proteges mueh experience, so with this in view, after the last game with Otterbein, with a squad of eight men, he was off on an Eastern trip. The boys got the ex- perienee. but left the big end of the scores in the East. They eame home only to let State do them under their own roof, and a few days later, to close the season by losing to XVooster. The season has not been all that the most Sanguine might have expected, but even the pessimist could but agree with us that the team well merited our pride and loyal support throughout. Every man of them worked hard, eonsistently. and with a spirit of sports- manship that does credit to Ohio Wesleyan. Of the twenty games in all, 'Varsity won nine. 'With sueh eompetitors as State and Oberlin, it is no mean honor to be credited third plaee in Ohio, whieh rank is unquestionably ours. The Results. O. W.

Very few teams have given their supporters a cleaner and more point getting season of ball than Captain Bakcr's men of last spring. Baker's predictions that ,Varsity would win the State championship came close to being realized. Only as the result of Commencement NVeek festivities did it slip our grasp. The season started off with a dangerously small score against Otterbein. Goddard in the box pitched a good quality of ball, and set a pace for himself which he maintained through the season. Coach Rickey tried out twelve men in this game and all showed up well. Our next victim was Reserve. Squeeze plays was the feature of the game. Stauffer and'MeDowell made their first appearance at this time. Reserve left us nine runs to the good. One of the sweetest victories of the entire season was the one over State. Goddard's pitching and Daniels' batting were the fea- tures of the game. A week later both Reserve and Case on their own sod lost to Coach Riekey's hard hitting and fast fielding team. Kenyon left 'Varsity with her seventh victory, but NVooster dealt her a defeat. Case, in the return game, followed the example of Wooste1'. But two games with Oberlin and one with State increased our victories to ten. XVe lost to Kenyon and won from Denison. We were still abreast of NVooster in the race for the championship, but alas! The appended scores tell the tale. All the men played good ball, fairly free from errors. Goddard at pitching was equal to any twirler of the Big Six. McRae also showed good material for the position. Daniels at the receiving end worked like a veteran, and his lrish agility was a valuable asset to the team. Evans guarded the first base as few could have done, and was always there when needed. llis long reach brought down many an erratic ball. LeSourd at second and Baker at third played their usual excellent class of ball. The outfield was well cared for by Graham, Potts and McDowell, while at short, Stautfer was a wonder in scooping up the grounders in his lot. At batting, Potts displayed his usual excellent hitting, but for a sensational hit and one that was most needed in a pinch, McDowell had no equal. It is impossible to predict what Coach St. John may be able to make out of the material this season, but as the Bijou goes to press the outlook is promising. The Sophomore class has made an unusual- ly strong donation to this iield of athletics-first and second fase- man, center fielder and pitcher. 240 Awww' a .-vw va v ---m: -P 3 nl V W' r K3?QQ5? i 11'f'Y -k 'V'w.,'17 Wx' wwf 51,0 , 'a'?

There was the usual noisy banging of seats and scuffle of feet and then the Pro- fessor of Greek stepped out to lead the devotions. Ile read a few verses from the Bible, and then, draping his hands gracefully over the desk, proceeded to deliver a few remarks, couched in classic terms. The words whistled through his shaggy gray whiskers with a peculiar rasping sound. I caught myself wondering if his false teeth fitted as securely as they might. I glanced over the rostrum and tried to guess how interested those various dignitaries were in the faultless rhetoric and hackneyed precepts to which we were listening. On the back row I could see the new assistant in English busily engaged in reading themes. A few chairs away sat the young assistant in French conversing ani- matedly with her neighbor, the new member of the History depart- ment. Evidently their thoughts were not upon the merits of hard study as leading to Phi Beta Kappa and Who 's Who, which were being hurled at us from the desk. Not that I blamed them in the least-not I. I glanced at my own neighbors, deep in study, and then back at the young lady who assists in German. She didn't look happy. I wondered if her position on the platform had anything to do with it. V The occupants of the left side of the rostrum would, as a whole, have done credit to any institution of learning. Their interest in the speaker was fairly pathetic. I realized, as my eyes lingered upon this section, that a small, uncompromising black bonnet, surmounted by a majestic black tulip, is not without its points, but upon shutting one eye, I will confess that its effect, as perched jauntily upon the bald head of the dignified little man who deals in Physics, was rather unique. One glance at the face of the Professor of French sent a shudder of reminiscence through me. That awful angle of the hat over the eyes and that anti-bellum set of the lips spoke all too plainly of a quiz in Art History the next hour. On the other side of the rostrum there were various expressions to be noted. The head of the Natural Science department wore a dogged, be-interested-or-die expression, due doubtless to the way in 266 which his neighbor on the left presented a broad expanse of back to his view, while gazing into the dome with a rapt, celestial-dreamy sort of an expression on his countenance. - Next to him sat the head. of the English department smiling a cheerful, undiscouraged, little boy smile. I turned to the faces of the row in front of the choir. The Pro- fessor of Oratory gazed into space with a vacant child-like look on his broad face, the Professor of German, with his chin sunk into his collar, was going through a series of facial contortions, which seem- ed to indicate that boredom was painful, the Dean of Wolnen glanced hither and thither with his small, pale eyes. On and on flowed the rasping rhetoric of the Professor of Greek. There seemed to be no way of stopping him. Those sitting on the back rows slipped out quietly and those who could not reach the exit slid down more comfortably in their chairs. The Professor of Na- tural Science gave up the attempt to appear interested, and yawned openly, the Professor of English ceased to smile, the little rat-ter- rier-like, bald headed Professor of History fidgeted, the Professor of French pulled her hat down to a more vicious angle over her eyes, but through it all the Head of the department of Bible con- tinued to gaze heavenward and a little woman, two rows back, smiled a little and inwardly thanked l1er stars for a sense of humor.

Conditions were about as I expected. Sam Robinson met me at the door and ushered me into the drawing room. Four of their special students were playing flineh, Burnham was rendering a fal- setto solo at the piano, I heard a confused growl on the second floor, but the boys told me it was only Mahon and Sellers discussing col- lege politics. They invited me to stay for supper, and as I had come for that purpose, I reluctantly accepted. After supper the corn-silks and buttermilk were passed. The boys are mighty good rushersand I found my way home in the early hours of the morning. The Betas are on the whole getting along nicely. Respectfully submitted, Phi Kappa Psi. Dear Doctor: In fulfillment of my duty I called on the Phi Psi boys on March 3rd. Everything was quiet, except the distant echoes of some loud braying guifaws, which Darr told me exnanated from Cowen and Anderson's room. The house was nearly empty as Parrett had taken the freshmen up to Monnett, and Garver's bunch were down at the Superlta. The house looked in good condition, and Darr told me they had Bible study every Sunday morning. I did not stay long for Paxson began to rehearse a song on the second floor, which was clearly above me. Darr's bunch is in good condition. Economically yours, G. G. G. Phi Gamma. Delta.. My Dear Brother VVeleh: My loving kindness prompted me to call at the Phi Gam lodge on Monday night, March 7. Before I got to the house, I was sur- prised at the number of fire-flies on the front porch but these van- ished when they heard my clerical step. The boys tried to make me feel at home by giving me the pup to play with, but when I told them 270 I was there to investigate their spiritual and financial welfare, the dog slunk away, followed by some of the other frat brothers. As to questions concerning the former, Blume was the best informed, con- cerning the latter, Graham was the chief source of enlightenment. I love all those boys, and yet when I contrast the present members with those of former times such as McDowell and myself, I feel sorry for the chapter. Let us trust to Providence. N Cordially yours, Ben Mc. Delta Tau Delta. Dear Herbert: Snatching time from my pressing duties yesterday, I slipped over to the present Delta Tau house Cyou know they have bought a lot and intend to buildb-but l went where they are now. The boys were in high spirits. As I was passing the Jacohus manse in the frat backyard, I saw a freshman jump through a side window in the Delt house, followed by several yelling Sophomores. They were having a rough-house, which the sheriff next door told me was a nightly occurrencei. Battelle finally secured the semblance of order and I proceeded to state my business, though much interrupted by Hoover and Morehouse is giggling. The boys all agreed that they must and would do better in the future, and after they had bid me an affectionate and touching farewell-touching, that is they touch- ed me for five dollars more toward their new house--I was glad to escape with a whole skin. Don 't worry about the Delts, they 'll come out all right in the end, for they used to be just as bad as they are now, and you see what their alumni are like. As always, Billy. Phi Delta Theta.. To the Rev. Dr. Welch, D.D., L.L.D.: When I called at the Phi Delt house Monday night, I found the Glee Club in the parlor, the Mandolin Club in the Library, the Chrestomathean Quartet in the music room, while the Preachers' Sons' Club was holding forth in the pantry. Gilrufh and Soekman were entertaining some open-mouthed freshmen with some stale Jcsters' jokes, Pennywitt in his room was giving an illustrated lecture on aluminum ware to a poverty-stricken crowd of future peddlersg Wright was holding a loud-mouthed tete-a-tcte with some town girl over the 'phone They were all so busy that Shipps was the only man who could talk to me. Hence I got away as soon as I 271 x could and said I would return for frat meeting which they told me would be held at 11:30 P. M. Of course I never get back for that, but as far as I can sec the boys need no faculty action just now. Matlieniatically calculated, G. N. A. Sigma Chi. To Ilis Majesty, the Rev. Dr. Herbert 'Wclchz It gives me great pleasure to report the progress of my fra- ternity this month. I visited them on March 5th, and my musical ear was entranecd by the seductive strains of their German Band under the leadership of Mayer. In organizing this band, the Sigma Chi's acted on a principle, which I have found true in my pro- fession, that Music hath charms to soothe the savage beast. Kel- ler was at Monnett as usual, but Evans soon brought the warring elements to a subdued murmur. After I had told my business Leach harangued the mob on tl1e sanctity of the American flag and the fundamental principles of democracy. After another spasm of the band's, I took my departure. In my opinion the boys are perfectly harmless and the faculty need be in no fear. Harmonically composed, E. Y. M. Alpha Tau Omega. My Dear Proxy: In the words of a Freshman theme-Writer, my overpowering sense of duty directed my faltering steps toward the threshold of the chapter house of the Alpha Tau fraternity on the evening of Feb. 23d. The house was dark as the boys were all down at the Candy Kitchen. I sat down on the cracked tile which serves as a step until George Little came hobbling home from the gymnasium where he hibernates. He lit up the smoker and we sat there till the picture shows and Candy Kitchen closed, when the boys came in. Lingo stamped on the floor to bring them to order, and after they had gagged Main and Inskeep, I proceeded to lecture them upon the im- portance of my mission. After some tearful confessions of Jackson and Spahr, I emerged into the pure fresh air of the night. The Alpha Taus are so far out they will not disturb the peace. Literarily transcribed, H. F.ll . 272 Sigma Alph Epsilon. My Dear President: Having closed up the office and driven Rockey from the gym, I sauntered over to the frat house on the evening of February 29tl1. It was the night of Cartwright's weekly visit to the house and the boys were having Bible study. Some Biblical terms had evidently clung to VaWtcr's mind for as soon as the meeting was over I heard him repeating them to Davis upstairs. Stauifcr and Huffman were out scheming, but Martin staid to entertain me. I-lis attention was so divided between Phi Beta Kappa and Sigma Alph Epsilon that I could not get very satisfactory answers to my questions. Ile an- nounced that they were in good condition financially due to the large number of men boarding and sleeping in the house. A sudden tumult upstairs made the night hideous and frightened my shatter- ed nerves, but Andy told me the fellows were only baptizing a few of the freshmen as a nocturnal exercise. I knew the house was a good gymnasium but I did not know they had installed a swimming pool. The boys are in good healthy condition and are doing ine work in my department. Athletically inclined, J. NV. P. - Ohio Wesleyan Union. My Dear Welcli: I had the honor of being present at a meeting of the Ohio NVes- leyan Union on February 28th. It was held on the third floor of the city Y. M. C. A. away from the noise and dust of the street. LaRue assumed the hatchet which served as a gavel. After VVise had chanted a portion of Scripture, a hot debate ensued between Mohn, leader of the Liberals, and E. A. P. Jones, leader of the Conserva- tives, as to the size of the organization. Finally Holmes, Kimball and the two Frisbies were run through by a bare majority. I was asked to make a few congratulatory remarks which I did after shov- ing my conscience below the threshold of consciousness., The bunch then slunk over to the Greeks and indulged in a Coney Island apiece. This closed the orgy and I crawled out the back way and home. The union has a bright prospect before them and when they get installed in their new quarters in the rear part of Michael Nap- pie 's shoe shop, their future will be assured.

It is the only solemn thing in school-pathetic, indeed, at times and in spots. It is welcomed by the Faculty as filling a most needed place in college life and is reckoned a veritable incentive to more thorough class room work. mfn 'Y' 2 7 T .Q A , .

' Sophsistfojry To cram or not to cram, that is the question. Whether 'tis wiser in the weeks before, to cram The dates and battles of English History Or to take chances against a quiz of Stevie 's And by much bluffing pass it? To cram, to sleep No more 5 and by that cram to say We make The A's and other brilliant grades That Phi Beta Kappa is heir to-'tis a consumation Devoutly to be wished. To loaf-to bluifg- To bluff! Perchanee to flunkg ah there 's the rubg For in that quiz of Stevie 's what questions may come When we have had our last fond look at Green Must give us pauseg there is the respect That makes calamity of so long loafing. For who could tell the dates and traits of John, The Charter's provisions, King Richard 's wars, The color of Elizabeth 's hair, or Caxton's work. Why men wore beards, and the thousand Other questions that suifering classes bear, When one has studied for the quiz With a bare out-line? NYl1o would demerits take For burning lights long after ten bells sound, But that the dread of specials after Green, Specials Whose very like one ne'er has seen before, drive And makes us rather cram for Quizzes that we have Than fly to specials that we know not of? Thus Stevie doth make grinds of us all. And thus the joys of loafing Are marred once more by study And dates and social affairs of great joy With this regard, see us no more, And stunt-books suffer accordingly. 279 s on the will Some of Our Faculty President Welch charms all by his culture. His musical taste, his beautiful English, his sympathetic reading are a great stimulus to young people. I-Ie is also just, gentle and generous. Under his example and care the University passes on to a higher usefulness. Prof. Parsons represents the old-time ideals of the University. He is strongly suspected of a devotion to roots and bulbs, useful and ornamental. I-Iis Irish birth is held accountable for his at- tempts in tl1e iield of wit and humor. - Prof. Austin is the astronomer of the Faculty. He is generally so overcome with his responsibility for tl1e solar system as 'to have no time for tl1e cultivation of rhetoric or public speaking. NVhat attractions he lacks as a spell-binder, he gains in the literary field of masticating ice cream, in which he affords entertainment to the young ladies of Monnett. Prof. Davies by some critics is suspected of being a great scholar of NVelsh extraction. In fact he admits tl1e charge himself. He never tires of mentioning his friends , the emperor NVilliam and Lloyd-George, even claiming that he and Lloyd-George were born not far from each other, as if two people could both be born in Wales and not be born near each other. His contact with the German emperor consists in his Majesty throwing some dust from his automobile on the professor who was eating pretzels at a public table spread unter-den-Linden. The professor is a great worker and a scholar, though accused of being related socially to one of the con- stellations, the Great Bear. Prof. Robert I. Fulton is a native of Virginia, who can drop his final 'r' like a field hand in tl1e Old Dominion. He believes in good literature and that no man can achieve success in this world until he has taken private lessons in elocution at a good price per hour. lle drills Iinely in debate and oratory, and feels the convenience of having other branches taught in the University to serve as feeders for the great School of Oratory. Prof. R. T. Steveson is historian, poet and general conservator of tl1e destinies of America In delivering an address he has adopt- ed the Rangaroo style. Lecturing on Roger Bacon he will say, This man of learning reminds Tllf of Betsy Hanks whose son Ah- raham Lincoln carried to completion the principles of the 'Magna Charta' granted in-never mind the date-and signed by the arch- bishop of Canterbury in tl1e south eastern corner of England where Julius Caesar landed. But Pompey-how many in the' class have had Latin? NVell, nobody would have guessed it. As I was saying the commonwealth of Rome?,' etc. Probably for culture and wide knowledge of men and books, Prof. Stevenson is unsurpassed in The Faculty. Prof. Hormell might claim to be the most genial man of the faculty. Ile knows the students and likes even the bad ones. He agrees with everybody and everything, and has done good service for the University in many lines. Prof. Clara A. Nelson is an ideal professor. She knows what she knows and knows it Well. She has seen much of America and more of Europe. The French language and art is her delight, though l1er taste is cosmopolitan. She is wholly free from affecta- tion of learning, and her work is appreciated fully by l1er large classes. She has no failings, not even punetuality. Prof. Duvall is the professor of thought. Of all the Faculty he is probably the most unique and original. He has the only correct ideas on our mental make-up. His feelings are lacerated daily by listening to the cruditics of the mental process. It is greatly to be feared that his respect for ancient humbug and holy notions is not so profound as it should be. Prof. E. L. Rice is the birdiest man of the Faculty. Ile loves birds and is as cheery and persistent in making sounds as the feathered songstcrs. Some people would prefer to hear the birds. Now Prof. R. H. XYalker-well, he is the St. John of the Faculty, or rather St. John was the Rollin 'Walker of the college of the apostles. Really, he does not deserve all the credit he gets for being so good. I-Ie never married, you see. When he was very lit- tle he had measles and juvenile piety at the same time. The measles came out. Prof. lVestgate doesn't know so much about the Bible as Prof. NValker,, but considerably more about some other things. Ile is particularly oratorieal in his set speeches at Faculty meetings, even calling forth the comment of the head of the Oratory Department. llis enlarged ideas of university administration gained in a western high school has been of much inspiration to his fellow professors. Ilis place in the college life is teaching a large class of fossil gatherers each year how to use the hammer. Prof. Smyser and Prof. Great are tl1e Pennsylvania Dutch element in the Faculty, both being violent reactions in dress from the barefoot Dutch type. They both have the placid sel'F-apprecia- tion and thrift that led the Pennsylvanians to charge twenty-five cents for a glass of water to both Union and Confederate troops, weary and wounded at Gettysburg. They are both good professors too, steady and exacting. Prof. Newberry is suspected to be in love with the drama. Other loves she doesn't exactly encourage about lllonnett llall, where only the more transcendent ideas lind utterance. P Prof. Iligley and Prof. Melillroy are like Profs. Rice and 'West- gate, a modern instance of David and Jonathan. They know each Other, a few other people and things too. They are good professors i11 very different styles.

Five of them are for being absent from meals, and I did not excuse you from one of them. Ilave you any exeuse to offer? Then, what shall l' do with these demerits? You know the rules, Mr. Baker. lf you are not more careful l shall have to send a note home to your parents, and you would hate to have me do that. You must try to be more careful in the future, that's all there is to it. Dean Hormell--Mr. Parrett, l have your name down six times for coming home late after entertainments. NVe allow forty minutes to get home after the close of an entertainment, and if you are not in by that time your name is to be taken. You can see the -reason for that, Mr. Parrott. Coming ill late this way you wake up the whole frat house, and the fellows need their sleep. Otherwise they will break down from over-work. Then, besides, it makes trouble up at Monnett when you loiter on your way home and stay too long at the hole-in-the-wall. However, I shall do nothing about it this time, but if it happens again I shall have to cut your dates and write a note home to your mother. Dean Hormell-Mr. XYright, I have your name down for keep- ing lights burning after ten. l' know you are a hard student and hate to go to bed until your lessons are thoroughly prepared. But that is no excuse. You must plan to get your work done in the day time. or else drop some of it. Why, if you break rules and stay u p after ten to study, everybody else can stay up to have a good time, and what kind of order would We have ,then in our frat houses? Wlly mothers that are careful of their boys' health have told me that one of the main reasons that led them to send their boys here was that they had to be in bed by ten. You see you are injuring the University, Mr. Vtfright. Ii you have work that really must be done that night you must see me during office hours and get permission to keep your light. 288 Here and There Mr. Weigle-lvliss Cantwell, did you ever have those vague longings, that you cannot define, and can not tell whence they spring?

Appreciation Never were the members of a board more jubilant and free than are the editors of Ohio XVesleyan's first annual, at this stage of its editing. The Bijou is completed. Only a few remarks remain to be made and we lay the finished product before you, fellow student, honored alumni, and gracious Faculty, for your criticism-for the unprecedentedly small sum of one and a quarter. Credit is due all organizations that have so readily complied with our time and terms. And it were base ingratitude not to men- tion the kindly receptions given the board at Monnett Hall by Mrs. Newberry on various occasions, and not to suggest the honor she gave us by eonsigning us to the basement, and by attributing the discord of every committee that met in the Hall to the Bijou Board. XVe are also much indebted to those who shirked their write-ups. for it gave us such practice as not even the English department could afford. Not only in his opinion, but according to the judgment of others, no editor ever had a stronger and more efficient staff. They were not only willing to make any investigation the editor might suggest, but were even stronger in their own initiative and originality. Miss Gilbert was especially satisfactory in this respect, as were also Misses Hugus and Haig. Miss Kinnison was always on hand and doing her share. lrisl1's wit, washard for an Englishman, but it always had a point, and his suggestions were always worth while. Lacy's contributions were most prolific, and for originality and pointedness, were equal to any. No one on the board seemed to have more capacity than Sockman, and he always acted at our bidding, but the cream of his Work did not show up until the Board had been frightened from Monnett as a place of meeting. The book itself attests the ability of the Business Manager, Mr. Ferguson. I-le was not an amateur at the business, having formerly 299 managed the Ohio Wesleyan Song Book, and his experience coupled with hard Work, has shown itself in every page of the book. While Anderson Was not so faithful as some in attendance at the Board 's meetings, still we never found him when he wasn't busy. Much credit is due Misses Gilbert, Hugus, Haig and Kinnison for taking care of the organization at Monnett. Lacy was a wonder in running down faculty pictures. i The artist Work of Miss Morcl, of New Orleans, is worthy of the highest appreciation, and the Board congratulates itself on this find Recognition is also due Messrs. Hughes, Wcstbrool: and Boardman. Every member of the Board is deserving of the heartiest thanks from the Editor and Business Manager, for the interest they have taken in the task, the hard work they have done, and the Way they have stayed by it, and to every one who in any Way has contributed to the success of this book, we acknowledge our indebtedness.
