HIRTY vears ago the most imagina- tive would not have beheved that within three decades Purdue Univer- sity would stand as the foremost engi- neering school of the West. John Purduecalledthe institution a grow- ing High School : and Governor Hen- dricks, who in 1873 dcli -ere(l tliv first Commencement address, ventured the hope that within twenty years the graduates would number one hundred instead of one. At this time, when Purdue drew its stu lents from Tip- pecanoe county alone, and had but fifteen enrolled in the four classes, it hardly seemed possible that the time might cimie when the enrollment would jaass the fifteen hundred mark, com- l)rising students from not only every state in the Union, but from manv foreign countries as well. The M.mk Entk.wce In this steadily increasing growth, we can not fail to read the worlil ' s generous recognition of the successful work done by the Purdue Ahunni. In this sketch no attem])t is made to give the details of the origin of I ' urdue. It is niereh inlen led t(i |)resent the ups and downs of her early development when President and Trustees labored together to tide the Universitv over the dark davs of her early existence, and to picture if possi1.)le the monument of to-day which stands as an emblem of the untiring energv of men like our presidents. Emerson E. Miite and James H. Smart. In 1862. Mr. ? Iorrell with the assistance of Senator Wade, succeeded in passing an amended form of the original Land ( irant Pill which had been ve+oed bv President Buchanan in 1858. I ' , this act each state accepting the bill was entitled to 30.000 acres of land for each Senator and Representative in 13 ( ' oiij;ri-ss. aciNinliiij; tn the i -nsiis of lSi (). riii l.unl was lo Ih ' sold ami tlii.

This hill was accepted hy the Slate of Indiana in 1X65. I ' i the sale of the public land for which it provided, and the sub- sequent investment of the sum in bonds, an endowment ol S.M().0(K.) was formed, ihi vielding an aimn.il income of The schixil was first called The Imliaiia Agriciiltiiral Cdl- lege. In 186 ' ) John Purdue ' s donation of $l. (l.()l)() was ac- cepted, the State agreeing to cb.iuge the n.ime to I ' ln-dne I ' niversitv. . t the same time the donation uf .S. D.ODO from L.MiiEs ' Hall l i])pecanoc conntv and 100 acres of land from the citizens of West Lafa etle were accepted and later the present site was decided ii])on as the best location for the University. In 1S70. The Ladies ' Hall, riiarmacy P uildiiig. Purdne I l.ill, then known as the Men ' s Dormatory, Poiler House, IMil- ilar llall, and I ' .ani were erected and preparations were made for the o]ieiiiiig of the I ' nivcrsity. In lS7i, Professor Richard ( )wen. of the department of X ' atural l cience in the St.ale I ' niversity, was chosen President. I ' rofessor lloughman was appointed as his assistant. It was found impossilile to oikmi the l ' nivcrsit - in 187, and in the spring of IS7-t. President ( )wi, ' n ix ' si; ' ;ncd his position. An act of ( ' ongress reipiired tin- ojieiiing of the I ' niversitv by Jnlw ' I ' iiL UU) iJui.:.i 14 1874, so in March, 1874, Professor Hoiighnian began work and conducted classes until June. The following special courses of study had been organ- ized by the Board of Trustees : School of Science (1) Physics and Industrial Mechanics. (2) Chemistry. (3) Natural History. Scliool of Eiigiiiccring ( 1 ) Civil Engineering. (2) Mining Engineer- ing. (3) Architecture. School of -Agriculture (1) (2) (3) PllAKM. |-V BriLllINi; Theoretical and Practical Agricul- ture. Horticulture. Veterinary Science. On September 17, 1874, the school was formally open- ed witli the following faculty : A. C. Shortridge, President : y. S. Houghman, Professor of Physics and Industrial Me- chanics ; W. P). Alorgan, Professor of Mathematics and Engi- neering ; John Hussv, Professor of Botany and Plorticulture ; W. H. Wiley, Professor of Chemistry; and E. F. Brown, Pro- fessor of English, Literature, and Drawing. In November, 1875, President Shortridge resigned and Emerson E. White was elected to fill the vacancy. Owing to the low standard of the large majority applying for admis- sion, it was deemed advisable to have an Academv in con- neclinn with the L ' nixxrsity . ' [ hereafter fur a number of years we find that the majority of students were entered in ihe ] rei)aratory classes. In 1877, University Hall was completed, and i)i 187 ' , ' , Mr. .Martin L. Pierce. Treasurer of the L ' niversity, presented her with money for the erection of Pierce Conservatory. The I ' xperiment Station, then kn(.)wn as the Agricultural Building, was erected two years later. Almost every } ' ear since the opening of the L ' niversity. Ihe faculty has found it nec- essary to make some change in the lines of study. In the lieginning the work had nearly all li e e n done in special courses. In 1883, the Curri- culum underwent a uumlser of changes, and there were three l ' . ading schools established ; tlie Scientific, the Agiicultural, and Mechanical, with a special course in .Agriculture, and a School of .Mechanics with a workshop. The Art Department was improved and Ijccame one of the regular Courses. Latin and German were dropped and an- other year of English, and two years of Laboratory in Biology and i ' h sics were added. The practical training was increased in all departments, a new chair in Physics and Mechanical En- gineering was established, and the standard of admittance was raised. President While, who had spent seven years of faith- ful ser ice, and who had done much in the building of Pur- due, resigncfl during this year and James H.

At the next meeting;- nf the Legislatnre the much needed relief was given and there was also approiiriated $12,300 to be nsed in erecting a hnilding to accommodate the shops. L ' ntil this time the students in Mechanical 1-jigineering had been having their shn|i . .rk in the basement of the riiarniacy Puiild- intendent nl lublic Inslniclii m. was chusen as Ins succosur.

In the fall of 1SS7. a ftdl foin years ' course of Civil (•iidownieiit cotilrl not be used to pay the currrul expenses, and I ' .ngineeriug was eslalilished, and it drew a large number of tile reports sliowed ih.al these amounted to nearl .SJO,l)()0 .an students froni the beginning. In ISSSt, a special course in ' et- 16 crinary Science was added to the regular courses in Agricul- ture and Horticulture. These latter harl been further strength- ened the previous year. For, with the passage of the Hatch Act, the Experiment Station in connection with the Univer- sity, was to receive $15,000 per annum for the furtherin esti- gation along the lines of Agricultural Sciences, and for the distribution of the results among the people of the United States. In 1889, the School of Electrical Engineering, which was an outgrowth of the study of Physical Science, received an ap]3ropriation of nearly $20,000 for the erection of the Electri- cal Building. The second IMorrell Act was passed in 1890, anrl from this source the University received an additional annual income of $2.T,000 which was to be applied onlv to instruction in Agri- culture, the Mechanic Arts, the English Language and various branches of Mathematical, Physical, Xatural and pA-onomic Science, with special reference to their application in the in- dustries of life and to the faculties for such instruction. At this time there were 463 students enrolled in the I ' ni- versity. Of these, 348 were enrolled in the College and 11, were in the Preparatory Department. The School had main- tained a steady growth since its founding and its standard was continually being raised. It was no longer a local school but was being recognized in the other states as well as in all parts of Indiana. Prior to 1893 the shops of the Mechanical Laboratory had been built. In that year the old shops were fitted up and turneil over to the School of Science, thus leaving the School of F ' har- macy in full charge of its building. During this same vear one of the long felt wants of Purdue was supplied. . mos Lleavi- lon gave to the L ' niversit} ' $33,000 and to this the Legislature added $.t,000, thus making possible the erection of the Mechan- ical iiuilding. This building was iledicated with great cere- mony on the nineteenth of January, 1894. .Vs the night of the nineteenth had closed down upon this great structure alive with activity, so, the morning of the twenty-fciurth wakened to see a mass of scorched and broken walls and a heap of smouldering ashes. Two hours told the tale from beginning to end : the starting of the fire, its destructive progress, the heroic work of students, faculty and friends ; and the end when only the west wing, a little pile of e(iuipment, and a heap of useless rub- bish remained in the place where had stood The Pride of Indiana. The destroyed building had been to all lovers of Purdue, a monument to the untiring energv of I ' rofessor Smart. If that were true, s( i nuich was it true of the new building which rose as nearly as possible an exact counterpart of the first. Where n:ost men would have despaired President Smart saw the demand for greater energy and he went at the task anew with a courage which was undaunted. . s a reward for his labor, on December fourth, 189.3, the restored building was opened. . s the institution advanced, the enrollment of students in the preparatory department had been gradually diminishing. The University had reached a point where it was no longer fed by this department and it was thought best to do awa}- with it. Consequently, in the spring of ' 94 it was abolished. In the fall of ' 95 a pre-Medical course, courses in . rchi- tectural Engineering, Sanitary Science, and Industrial Chem- istrv were added to those already in operation. In the death of President Smart, which occurred in Febru- arv. l ' 00, Purdue lost a great benefactor, one whose ever ■ effort had been bent toward the bettenuent of the Universitv. 17 Ill- liail ]il;ici-il I ' linlin- ii a hnn f.ninilalinii aiiil 1m her stink ' nls li.- will I ' vcr stand as nni.- wlm knew imi i1k- wunl lail. 1 )ui - in;; llii- fXtciulod illiu-ss il I ' rcsick-iU Smart. ic,-rrcsiilrnt W. !• .

The years of trials a n d hardships which had ffone hefoie were ste])- pinj.; stones to the fu- ture when I ' nrdite w o n I d stanil as a school alile to cope with the hest of its kind. Since I ' XX). the enrollment has nearly ijonliled itself and for the first time in the history of the lniversity. this year marks an attendance of over fifteen lunidre l stmlents.

At tlu- St II M I r.rii.MiNi: same time I ' nrdne was made the trustee for a $10,000 annual fund for the i ' arnier ' s Institute. In l ' «)l. the erection of a Chapel and Auditorium was made possihle through the good will of Mrs. Eliza I ' owler. which she generously manifested by presenting the University with $70.(1)0. Later. Mr. James Powder added $5,000 to be used in the constructing of .-ui organ. P ' or some time the seating- capacity of the old Chapel had proved in- sufficient and there was not in anv of the build- i u g s a room large enough to accommo- date the wdiole student body. The erection of Eliza Fowder Hall not only fulfilled this long felt want but it g-ave to Purdue a hall of beauty which will ever stand as a monu- ment to its donor. The new Auditorium was first used for I ' o m - mencement I ' .xercises in I ' lO.i, and was dedicated May fomih. l ' l()4. In l ' Hl, the Legislature increased the annual ap]n )pria- tiou for maintenance from one-twentieth of a mill to one-tenth of a mill ou .-dl tax.ilile pvopert in the state. They also ap- ].riate l .Sr. IKH) I ' or .i central heating plant and $60,000 for ,-1 rinsics building. W ork on the lu ' ating plant was begtm im- mediately lifter the appropriation was received and it was com- IS pleted in January, 1904. This is the first year in wliicli we reap the benefits of the increased income, and the advantages oft ' ered by the Physics Building are being realized at this time. In order that an idea may be gained as to tlie anidunt of money necessary to keep an institution the size of Purdue in good standing, even with the strictest economy, this estimate of I.HU income is given.

On October the thirty-first, students and friends from Lafavette prepared to witness the annual game of foot4)all between Purdue and Indiana University, The special train, carrying the team and a thousand loyal supporters, was wrecked on the outskirts of Indianapolis. The first coach. carr ing the team, was com- pletely demolished. Seventeen of its occupants lust their li es and not one escaped serious in- , jury. All felt that words were not sufiicient to express our feelings. Inorderthat we might give substantial evidence of tlie high respect in which we held those brave boys who gave up their lives on that never-to-be- forg-ottcn day, the lemorial Gynmasium Fund was begun. Great hopes are centered in tliis building. It will l)e designed to minister to the piivsical and social needs of the University and it is certain that it will serve to draw .Mumni and students more closelv together, for in this effort we have all jdined hands and attempted to erect a suitaljle monument to our dead. The hour glass of our student da s is running low. and the future is 1)efiirc us. As we leave at this, Purdue ' s Thir- tieth Commencement time what mav we not predict for her? Looking backward, her path has been rough and strewn with difficulties. Ahead, we see nothing but .glory and success awaiting her. She has made a prominent place for herself in the world of technical engineering. Ma}- she ever keep to this ascending path, and ma ' her wa ' ever become more smooth.

I ' LANT ISTORY OF THE PAST =5aferS — YEAR ricking up the thread of University History where it was ih-iipjied l)v the last class and carr inL;- it forward t( ) the present time, we find that the past }ear has been one of steady growth for the University, Ijoth in nimiber of students enrolled, and in strength of departments. In the main there have been no hap- penings of especial character and the University has |)nrsned the even tenor of its wa . During the past few years, Purdue has entertained many distinguished visitors, but last ear was probabl) ' the first time that a prince of a foreign land visited our University, (. )n May 24, 1904, Prince Pu Lun, of China, a distinguished diplomat, and a man of the highest rank in his own country, stopped at Lafayette for a day while on his way to the Fair at St, Louis, The Prince and his escort came from Indianapolis in automo- biles, reaching Lafayette on the afternoon of the 24th, Word had been received of his coming, and preparations made at the L ' niversity to receive him. The cadets were assembled and drawn up in long file on the east side of the oval opposite a re- viewing stand that had been erected near the fountain. . n enormous crowd greeted the Prince ' s arrival with great enthus- iasm. The cadets went through the usual drill maneuvers, the scene being keenly enioxe d b the Prince, who paid the closest attention to ev,r - detail. The next da - the Prince spoke in Fowler Hall, thmugh an interjircter. and at the conclusion of his speech was treateil to a good Purdue ell. While he prob- ably did not comprehend its meaning, still he could mulerstand the enthusiasm that went willi it. 1 )nring the past ear I ' owler Hall liPs furnished us with nianv a delightful Imur of entertainment and instructiim. Here at convocation hour we have listened to addresses by men whose work and influence have made them famous throtighout the countr ' . More and more we are beginning to realize that Fowler Hall is one of the central features of Purdue life. . n idea that had its ince])tion several years ago was car- ried out for the first time at the close of the school year last |nne. Fcir a I ' mg time there had been a growing desire to make the days of Commencement week a time of general re- laxation and eniovment. a brief period in which all the classes, alumni, facultw and guests of the I ' niversity might imite in a celebration nf the year ' s work before they separated for the summer. The proposition of having ' a Gala Week was submitted to the student bodv and it met with their hearty approval and support. A program was prepared consisting of base ball games, an athletic meet, the various class functions, class day exercises, and Commencement. Eyer thing went off smoothly, and there is little doubt but that Cala Week will become a fixture in the University Calendar, The class of l ' ' n4 was the hiryesl ( Iraduatins- Class in the history ■ if the riiiversit . the total list of uraduales luimherinti 2M. Four years ajjo the announeenieiit was made that the enrollnient had ])assed the 1,000 mark. This year the attendance is above 1,500.

The appropriations of the last Let islature will also hel]i a fjreat deal to accommodate llu ' larye number of students. $60,000 was criven for a new Chemistry buildin;;-; .$40,000 for a building devoted to Civil Fngineering ; and $2. .000 per annum for the Experiment Station. It is now an assured f;icl that the I ' urdue Lecture Course has be- come a permanent li.xtiu ' e. Cnder the . ' dile management of I ' rof.

The School of Engineering presents man - ])hascs to the stu- dent, r.eginning earl) ' in his hreshnian ye;ir he is taught matters of practical value. Thus in the first term he han- dles wood-working tools and graduallv ])asses through the -arious steps of pattern-making, until liuall llie foundry is reached. Here in the foundr - and later on in the machine and forge shops he acquires that ability to work lioth with his hands and his head. for. liesides pureh ' manual tasks, problems of arrangement and economical work are pre- sented to him for solution. In this manujr the studinl com- pletes, as it were, his ajiprenticeship course and in his Junior -ear enters into the field of design and testing. In the drafting room, working drawings of ; ress s. punches, cranes, hoists, and so forth are made; while in the Laborator} ' familiarity is gained through contact with en- gines, pumps and other machiner ' . Iron, steel and wood are tested, thus gi ' ing the student a first hand kuowdedge of the strength of the dilTereut constructi -e materials so essjntial to llie 1 )esiguiug Engineer. While matters decidedly practical are the distinctive traits of Purdue, other subjects are not neglected and an exhaiisti ' e mathematical treatment of Engineering phases is given in the class-rooms. In the junior year the last text- 1 C)ok is closed upon pure mathematics and from thence 25 uiuvanl tlio wiirk is ilmu ' llimui li . ]i- lii-il Mfclianios.

Thus the student is linally ready to L;raduate, e(|ui]i- ]ied with a i ' ooil theireliial k ' lowl edi;e of his subject and only requires |iractice to beciuiie the roiuided en- ginei-r. ' The i)ast year has lieeu a very successful one, indeed, for the Me- chanical 1 )i-|iartmenl, i ) vinL; to the L;vcatl increasing; demand of the sub- ject of internal cond ustion, the Lab- oratory has enlarL;ed its ciniipmcilt by the .addition of two such t -pcs nf engine, one an eighteen horse power 26 Merriam - Abbot gas engine and the other a twent_v horse power Fairlianks-Morse Co. engine, specially designed to linrn kerosene. A Rider-Ericson hot-air puiii])- ing engine has also been added to the Laboratory to afford in estigation in that line. The Laboratory of Strength of Materials is the official laboratory of the ALas- ter Car lUiilders Association, which association has deposited many valuable pieces of ap- paratus with us. During the past spring, apparatus was installed for the purpose of testing air brake hose and several hundred samples were tested from whose data valuable results are expected to be o1)tained. Experiments made under the patronage of the Carnegie grant of last year have been pushed to their completion. They consisted of determining the performance of Locomotive Schenectady, No. 2, under various high steam pressures. The power plant has had adde(l to it apparatus which will enable ery thorough tests to be made upon it and to iL ' terniine its complete efficiency. The I,oc(jmotive Museum has liecn greatly enlarged during the past year to meet the demand for increased lloor space, the most noteworthy addition being the gift of an obsolete type of inside connected locomotive and a passenger coach of the period of 1836. The American Locomotive Co. has also depositcil with the mu- seum the model cylinder which formed part of that company ' s exhibit at St. Louis. During the spring and summer a heavy freight locomotive from the Xew York Central will be placed in the testing laboratory and laws determined which will fa- cilitate the design of smoke stacks and front end arrangements for hea y ty]jes of engines. These tests are to be conducterl under the jsatronage of the American Rail- way Master Mechanics Association, v hich has raised a fund for that purpose. An automobile testing plant is in process of design and construction, which is an innovation in technical schools, and the results are to be watche(l with great in- terest. The Machine Shop has also come in for its share of the general enlargement and the following machines have been added : One llrown tv Sharpe grinding ma- chine, one No. 1 ' -4 Cincinnati milling machine, one 1-1-inch Springfield lathe, one 14- inch and one 12-inch Reed lathe. And so. taking it as a whole, the year 1904-1905 has been very successful for Purdue, and good results and a good growth may truly be expected for 1905-1006.

We first met Timmie in tlie Eresliman wood-roimi, l;iit we realized not his great attachment fur the class of 1905 until later, when with care and forethought, he had himself prnmnted in the Faculty scale and greeted us again in the design room. Here we were enlightened by being allowed (?) to procure 90 cents worth of little mimeographed here and theres, radiated from his store of knowledge in disconnected bunches. Yes! and we periodically enjoyed these little privileges until graduation.

We little realized how crude and iuide ' eloped our concepticm of the tridy artistic was until we tried to get Testing Lab. reports past Fermier. Then we learned of the rare and beautiful decor- atirms that cr)uld be executed by means of many colored crayons. Then it was that we began to appreciate his art, and for the sake of further instruction, we rarely handed in a perfect report but would leave a letter (I) uncrossed or an obscure (i) undotted so as to acquaint ourselves with tiie elementary stages of an impression- istic daub.

The Electrical department at I ' urdue has l)een particu- larly fortunate from the ver - beginning in being under the direction of men who were not only capable educators, but men whose practical ability as engineers has won them enviable distinction in arious lines of experimental re- search and as technical writers of extended reputation. The Electrical ilepartment was separated irom that of Physics in 1888, and started its independent career under the supervision of Dr. Louis Piell, of well known te. t-l)ook fame. I ' rom 188 ' ) to 18 ' Wi the work was successivelv taken up by Professors Albert P. Carman, Reginald S. Fessenden — better known by his governmental researches in wireless telegraphy — and Harold 11. Smith. In 1896, Professor V. E. Goldborough assumed the chair of Electrical Engineering and, under his leadership, assisted by the tireless efiforts of Professor Matthews, the school entered the latest and brightest period of its exist- ence. The attendance has been steadily growing, until nf recent years it has come abreast of the Mechanical .Schcnil, and the iuihcatidus ]jiiint to a still greater increase. 33 liiill I if I lie luw I ' liys- ios liuililiiiiL; ' I ' rnfcs- snr Ki-Im ' v Iki- ' llu- i-ntiri- third i r I ' nr liis ti-U|iliiiiu ' wiiik. uliiili i ;i ilislincllv r u r il 11 I.- iniiiiv;iti n .Mill va institiiUd in IX ' iJ 1. 1 fiiHill ihf fjrowinjj (liiiiainl I ' mi ' tcclinically I r a i n i ' il mi ' ii in lliis ccimiiara- tivi-Iy lU ' w lull I ' xc -i- ' l- iii;;lv i in p n r t a n 1 liiaiR-li nf l-.kiMrical I ' .iijjiiu-iTin ;.

Aside from Professor Ferry, the most prominent fea- ture of the department is its new buildinc; which deser es more than passing notice. It consists of two stories and a basement, 73 by 130 feet, built of brick with stone trimniimrs. Architecturally. the building gi es an impression of solidity, simplicity, and especial fitness f(ir the |)urpose for which it was erected. The course of instruction as outlined by the Physics Eacult r is more or less general in nature and consists of recitations and lectures thr(_)Ughout the Sophomore year. This is recjuired of all students. The C U and Electrical Engineers receive laboratory work in additi(jn during the latter half of the second year, and a similar course in heat laboratory is required of Junior Mechanical Engineers. The de])artment also has charge of the work in Electrical Measurements and devotes an entire ear to this subject. P.y the time the a erage student has completed the work of this schdol. he is convinced of the tlmrdugh and rigid method in wdiich it is administered.

It is ini])(irtant that lliL ' engineer early in bis course of traininc; , Ijeconies familiar with tlie fundamental processes of mechan- ical construction. This is the intent of the Department of Practical Me- canics at Purdue. Throughout the work of the en- tire department, there is an effort to impart to the student the spirit that is given in a marked de- gree by a military training, vhich brings the individual to rec- ognize , that the effectiveness of the whole is dependent on that of each unit, and it is absolutely necessary that the work of each unit be properly done. It is a well known fact that without organization our great manufacturing establishments ■would ne -er have Ijeen able to accomplish what has been done. Therefore, it is important that the student learn that responsibility rests on his shoulders. I he (irk of the department is administered along three general lines, the lecture, the draughting room, and the shops, each of which very closely co-ordinates the other. In the lecture room the student is accpiainted with the methods of getting the materials used in manufacturing out of the raw state, in which they are found in nature, such as lumbering, mining, ore smelting, and those processes which are the first step toward the finished product. He learns the cliaracteristics of different materials, thus en- abling him to judge between the good and bad. He is then instructed concerning the character of tools and ma- chines which are used in the processes of manufacturing, and the points to be observed in operating and caring for same. In the draughting room, he becomes familiar with the elementar principles of mechanical draughting, both bv per- sonal instruction and b - actual practice. He learns how to make drawings which will leadih convev to the mind how an object appears to the eye. This is important, because the 45 I ' li iiuiT niusl l)r alilf Ici IraiislVr iik ' as fnnii his (jwii lead to In the for e and machine sho])s lie learns the first prin- l);i|)cr. wIktc oIIkts can fjcl tlu-ni. and hv must alsn .e ahle ciples of metal working, in nsins: hoth hand tools and machines. ti) sec 1)V examination what others haw meant to con ey l)y in the use of which many hecome quite skillful. ilrauin,i, ' s. lie also learns tlie ililTerent methoijs of iiakini;- It is easily seen that the student of engineering must he ami prcservini; drawinijs. thoroughly familiar with all of the work of the department.

These courses, as well as the following ones, are open to the Science and Agriculture students who may elect analytic geometr} ' and calculus instead of English. All Junior engineering students pursue calculus thrnughout the year, while advanced elective courses arc given to Seniors and others who are prcjiarcfl for them, subject to the ajjprov- al of the department and of the Faculty. jNIathematical requirements for entering are raised almost every year, thus the standard of students is constantly advanced. The Faculty of this department consists of Moses C. Stevens (Professor Emeritus), and ten active professors and instructors.

( )f these three buildings in iilileu times the one nciw known as the T ' harmacv liuilding was de oted to scientific research. Here it was, in that building whose walls now bear the marks of time, that science passed in its rudimentary stage. Purdue, primarih ' , had no special courses, no marked schedule being s.-t before the student. There were, how- ever, various dejDartments. It was in 1876 that the l ni- versit}- authorities decided to establish three schools. The first of these w?s the School of Science. l ' ri)m the ])eginning the Uni ersit - was authorized as a scientific school and a brilliant future was proi hesied for her when, in liS ' ' 3, the Science department was trans- ferred from the Pharmacy P.uilding to Science Hall. The liiw, liroad building on the east side of the Campus was built when Purdue was in dire need of means, and constructed so as to cover the greatest area, and accommodate the great- est number of students at the least expense. The Museum was then fitted tip and the needs of the department were met. .Science as taught in Punlue, embodies several divi- sions. The Chemistry Department is especialh ' well equipped for the technical chemist. During the first year general ex- perimental cheniistr - is introduced, reading and lectures especiallv emphasizing the ri ' .diments of this course.

While .group electixes in the Junior and Senior year facilitate expert training in any course, at the same time Mathematics, l- ' ngiish and the Modern Languages are open to election, thus gixing the student not only special lint also gener.al work. The narrow chemist realizes his confined limit when deficient in those subjects which alone can extend to the student refinement and training. The botanical student will get no farther than his c(dlege di- ]doma will carry him without branching into other sub- jects, ' file scientist works not with the idea of reaching a zenith in specialization while in college regardless of every- thing else, but, on the other hand, with the i-ealization that a good, thoroiii h, fundamental basis will carry him farther and enable him better to specialize and meet the re(|uire- mi ' iits necessary f r specializatii m after dismissal from the L ' niversitv.

There is a tradition in the School of Science that once upon a time Dr. Cotdter took a field trip with one of liis classes. Every year since that eventful time he has often annoiuiced to Botany, Geology or Zoology classes that history is going to repeat itself, but each time a committee meeting has been called and it is im- possible for mc to get away. Nevertheless in his philosophiz- ing, he impresses upon us maxims of deep truth and we cannot help but wish that he might also serve the world in the pulpit as well as in the class room.

Professor Hoak has been one of the boys so long, it would seem improper to title him other than Hoak. A graduate in Pharmacy of the early nineties, he never severed his connection with the University, but crmtinued on, first, as Assistant and later as Professor in Materia Medica. He has the record of Doing the right thing, if there is one chance in a thousand, and is perhaps un- iustlx (?) classed among those horned creatures, commonly called Goats. We know he does butt into Pap ' s recitations at the most critical moment or in the middle of Jewel ' s lecture : and he does enjoy spreading the salve and slinging a little hot air at the end of the hour, but we will always remember that in Professor Hoak, WL- h.

In 1887 Lieutenant Pickering-, of the I ' . S. A., was ap- pointed commandant, and new e(|nipment of 100 rifles and two field guns was furnished. . t this time the military organization was made hroader and more com|)lete, consist- ing of one drum corps, one companv of infantr ' of 00 men, and one field hatter ' of 25 men. During all of these ears the militar drill was made vohmtarv on the part of the students and so great was the interest taken in this department that practically all of the students were enrolled as cadets diu ing their entire sta ' at the Universit}-. . bout ' 92 or ' 93, howe er, student interest began to wane, and upon the ad ice of Lieutenant Miller, who had succeeded Lieutenant Pickering, the militar ' drill was made compulsory. l ' v this time the militar ' cirganization had in- creased to one battalion of infantr ' , consisting i if three large companies. The field battery had also increased to aljout -10 men and the drum corps had been replaced bv a military band.

His early life was spent in the South, but in 1898 he came North and entered the Tciledo lli,8:h School, later attending Culver Military Academy and Ken- } ' n. He came to Purdue in 1901, but after two years he left schn.il to enter the active arena of life, b ' ntcring one of the large ircin manufacturing concerns in Toledo, he rose rapidly tn the po- sitinn of assistant manager of one of the important department, . He was a member of the Phi Kappa Psi fraternity and at the .time of his death was returning from a camping expedition with Pur- due friends, when he was accidentally drowned in Lake I ' Irie, August 21st, 1904. He was always kind and genial and a .great favorite among his friends, to whom the news of his suildeu death came as a great shock. CHARLES EDMOND KAILER. - 11 members of the University were greatly shocked when they learned of the tragic death of Charles Edmond Kailer, which occurred but ten days after he had received his diploma and gone (Hit to begin his life ' s work. After graduating, he had accepted a position with the Indianajxdis aufl Northwestern Traction C : m- pany and was put in charge of the installation of a sub-staton near Crawfordsville, Indiana. It was here that he met his untimely fate, udien on June ISth his life was instantly cut ofif by acciden- tally cnmin.g in c .intact with a strongly charged electric wire. While in Purdue he was a member of the Tau Beta Pi fraternity, the American Institute of Electrical Engineers and the Purdue Ma- sonic Club. lie was al ' ays brilliant and indtistrious and had won a hi.gli place in the esteem of instructors and classmates. LIVY BURGESS SELLERS Livy Sellers was known to only a few mendjers of the Uni- versity. He entered the Junior Class of Pharmacy in the fall of 1904, but was taken sick and died in less than a month after ma- triculation. While he remained with us but a short time he had made a number of friends and would have made many more could he have stayed with us. He was born in Johnson County, Indi- ana, on the 18th of June, 1884, and died at Lafayette on the first of October, 1904. JOSEPH CONNELLY Joseph Connelly, who graduated from the LTniversity with the 1903 Pharmacy Class, was born at Terre Haute, Indiana, April 25th, 1882. He attended the Terre Haute public schools and com- pleted one year at the High School before entering the University. After leaving Purdue he accepted a position with a Drug Com- pany at Clinton, Indiana. He remained here but a few months, when giving up his work he returned to his home at Terre Haute and entered the ein|)loy of the Buntin Drug Company, of that city, where he remained until the time of his death which occurred June 12th, 1904. Jo was popular with his c]assm, ' ites and was always considered a hail fellow well met. BERT FANKBONER ISert Fanklioncr was a student in the Electrical Engineering Department and graduated from the University with the ' 98 class. He was born at Jonesboro, Indiana, in 1873, and was educated in the Marion High School. He was quiet and unassuming in his manners and was always a hard student, gaining all his knowledge bv persistent and painstaking labor. During his Senior year he was assistant business manager of the ' 98 Debris. After leaving Purdue, he was very successful and made rapid strides in his chosen work. At the time of the accident which caused his death, October 6th, 1904, he was a representative of the United States Government and was chief engineer of the fuel testing plant of the United States Geological Survey at the World ' s Fair.

Graduate in Pharmacy. Pharmacy Foot-Ball (4). Jolly spent his boyhood days down in Scipio, astride a barrel, boring bung-holes. To this is due his bowed condition and cause of polarized sunlight falling levo-rotary. Jolly, no doubt, would have married long ago. but Dais said she does not admire a man with a crooked anatomy. Although a good student and faithful classmate, for him we can only predict a crooked walk in life. WILLIS BRADFORD JONES, Neekle, Pomona, Cal. B. S. in li. E. Sigma Nu.

To take nuich priLle in the history of one ' s class is a ])ar(lonablc thing when one considers the reconl the ' 05 class has made for itself (Inring- the fi ur years it has existed at Purdue. From the time when we were freshmen up to the present (late the class has e -er been prominent in L ' nix ' crsity af- fairs. I ' ollowiug certain nat- ural laws it is a foregone conclusion that we were as green as any ]irece(ling frt ' shman class when we en- tered the rni ersity in the fall of )l . hut e eu at that time the ind(imital)le class spirit of ' 05 began to make itself manifest. We scrapped almost nightly about the tank, and when the last scrap came we truly showed our mettle. the c ontest being so fierce and long that the upper class- men finally called it ofif and pronounced it a drawn battle. Profiting by our first year ' s experience the tank con- tests of our second year were a series of brilliant victories for ' 05. At that time the now famous chain gang was originated, much to the discomfiture of ' 06. who were counted down and out in the shortest time that it had ever taken for a tank scrap to be fought. Not satisfied with the outcome of the tank scraps, ' 06 again tried con- President McPartland clusi(jns with us the next spring, the occasion being our never-to-be-forgotten Sophomore Pianquet. To do justice to ' 06 it must be said that no class in all probability could have made a more game efifort than they did to enter the l)an(piet hall unin ited, but their failure to do so is under- stood when it is known that ' 05 was inside the hall. ( )ur main regret atlacheil to the holding of the ban([uet was that four of our classmates, among them our president, treas- urer and sergeant-at-arms, severed their connectic n with the University because of their extreme interest in the aftair. The daws of our Junior and Senior years have gone bv with winged si)eed and but little has hap])ened out of the ordinary routine of I ' niversity life. While our more turbulent class history ceased with our Sophomore year, it gave us an opportunity to put our supertlu .ius energy into class athletics. In class foot-ball, base-ball and track sports ' 05 has always been foremost and has several cham- pionships in each branch of sport to its credit. Vhile we are proud of our class record in athletics, yet it gives more gratification to know that ' 05 has done its share toward helping make Purdue prominent in estern and State athletics.

Miss Hunter put boards in her political fence from the literary societies with a resulting 29 votes for second place, while Miss Mary Rosebery. a ])romiiient candiilate of the Society Trust, had to meet the opposition of the frat union, and although de- serving, could lobby only 16 votes. The King ]iut the ward boss, Mike McPartland, up for the .Most Popular Man and bv careful manipulation and complete control of the poles, succeeded in freezing on to a majority. The Electricals relied upon Hearn ' s wind for this position but he crossed the line with Xo. 17 on his back. The C ' ixils, who always dte the straight Ci il ticket, ran Jamison 3 votes behind Hearn. Mcl ' artland took the office of Funniest Man on his merits, without aiiv Ring ballot stuffing, bill he couldn ' t help that. The Handsomest Man ballot was an example of a gigantic log rolling, and just be- fore election more two-fers changed hands and more sweaters llooded llie weekh ' wash than ;it anv other time in the history of the class. . few spiteful w ' retchcs who failed to receive cam|)aign torches from a majority of the 200 cantlidates running for this position, fused and gave Free, the clark horse candidate, the election. Two noble Contestants, both of whom were a])provetl liv the Municipal N ' olers ' l.e.igue. fought for the office fif Laziest Man, and tlu ' ictory of Mr. R, L Smith over Krull was not so over- wlielniing as to In ' ;i source of discouragement to the hit- ter ' s political .ambitions.

Had he Ijeen less formidable, Mr. Green- wood might have made a better showing, but as it was he made only a sad second. Jinimie Cain drew the Biggest Sport vote nearly solid. ])rincii)ally liecause the Y. M. C. A. had learned from hearsay that he was a competent man for this position, and not, of course, because he deserved it. Sammy lilair received a very safe majority for the Biggest Fake Sport, and has aspirations for the job of sure enough sport when his calibre becomes enlarged. Three prominent men, all of whom were heartily sanctioned by the Voters League, ran a series of Alphonse-Gaston stump speeches for the ofifice of Biggest Liar, and as the class could not find any great evidence of superiority among the candi- dates, they elected Messrs. R. M. Smith and Al Moore on a joint committee with Smithy as chairman, and a|ipointe(I Greenwood as alternate. Palmer, by means of faculty wire- pulling, had the impression generally conveyed that he wa ; the most desirable candidate for the Biggest Blufifer, and a purely non-partisan vote was cast. The Electricals suc- cessfully ran Ralston for the Xeatest Man. Richart and Banta had a tryout for Meekest Man, but Banta was ton bashful to do any electioneering and Richart won out. All of the men in the class who habitually drew B ' s, took a long shot at the Hardest Working l Ian, and voted for the Wil- bur scholar Ralston, while Carlos Robles-Gil came in with ISvotes for the Best Plugger. The ofifice of Biggest Goat having been filled successfully and jointly by the Conarroes for two years, was given to them again upon merit, although their laxity of late in smothering competition nearly saw their finish, for Kahn and Flagg were both hot after the ofifice. Burgess, Sherrin and Averill received the highest number of votes for the Best Literar Man in spite of the lobbying carried on by other members of the Debris Stafif, The P)iggest Sissy vote was confined to A ' ebber an l Ave- rill, the former winning bv a small pluralit}-. The class thought Jamison and H. A. Johnson were flattered bv receiving the greatest nundier of votes fi.ir Pest All-round Man. Kaylor and KruU bucked each other for llest Football Man, while Cook tried to bat out a victorv over Ccihen for the Best Baseball Man. The Best All-round Athlete vote was shared b - Huffman and Cohen, with the former a trifle in the lead. The class had 107 subscribers for the Expo- nent, and 122 bit on the ' 04 Debris deal, 74 of whom thought it bum, 26 called it fair and the 12 ' 04 flunks that are with us, were enthusiastic al)out it. The class th night that the thing most needed In ' the school was a new Gym. We prefer to tabulate the vote on the Profs. I ' avorite Professor — Young 37: liatt, 21. Easiest Professor — Test, 41 ; Young, 16. Laziest Professor — Seastone, 31 ; Ferry, 2S. Egotistical Professor — Pence, 31 : Ferry, 26. Biggest Blufifer— Golden. 57; H.iak. 2i: H..fl ' man, 21.

Handsomest — Jones, 31 ; I ' cckett, 25. There were a few deserving Seniors, and a few nut works who failed to get the desired number of -otes for rec- ognition, and again a few crept in because of pull but on the whole the offices were filled bv the most deserving men. 151 Naughty-Five ' s Sophomore Banquet wlion s]iukrn liy i mc Sfiiinr In anntlier.

HARRY L. SHARTLE. Jake shipped from Reno, Ohio, a good, ready-made practical engineer, and joined hands in making history for ' 05 and Purdue, and if that mysterious book, the Archives, could speak, his suc- cess would be proclaimed, possibly in black and blue, but right- fully in gold. That divine (?) command robbed us of Jake, but he took the bitter pill like the man he is, and after a year of re- cuperation came back to Purdue as loyal to ' 05 as ever. Me lias always been a hard working factor in moulding Pur- due ' s football teams and incidentally fought for ' 05 on the class team. HARRY WELLS. Harry Wells, the el ' ticicnt leader of Sophomore days, was one of our best students.

During his impassioned ap- peal he was smitten with a sudden attack of modesty and had to retire in confusion. Then J. .Stringer I rull took the lloor and fed the audience on some home-mad, ' ixudtry. Following him came Don Carlos Rohles-Ciil, more commonly known as Charlie CiW. who donned the smoke- colored glasses, the better to conceal his feelings, and launched out on Hy- draulica Mexicano. He was finall - heafled afi and induced to resume a sitting jiosture on the mourner ' s bench. Jocko Tlill was shoved to the front, where he handed out a glowing tribute in behalf of our much-maligned friend. Hancock.

In a fierce voice, much impeded liy an artificial brush of whiskers, he took a parting shot at everything pertaining to Mechanics. Xothing was left unsaid that was worth while. Ivither Palmer, in all his dignity, then came forward to give the final spiel, but his emotion was too great, and he could (inh- gi e ent to his feelings by gestures more expressive than words. An invitation for all who so de- sired to take a last pike at the remains brought forward a mere handftd of the tutored and pulled throughs.

The second and last chap- ter of the History of the students who entered the School of riiarmacv on the morn of Septeniljer 5, 1903, ended March 29, 1905,, when twenty-eight survivors re- ceived the degree of Grad- uates of Pharmacy and from the gciicroiis hand of Fa- ther Green, a sheepskin to prove it. Without douht our class has lost more men, in its first year, in pr(j]iortion to its size, than any other class in the Universitv. Twentv- three having failed to return for Senior work, leaving a scant majority to see the finish. Consequently we have set a pace in class work that will tax the ability of the future pharmics to reach. The officers of the Junior year were unanimously re- elected and have shown surprising business ability in the manner and speed with which the}- ha e disposed of the business incident to the management of the class. President Mi .As a gift to the I ' liarmacy Department the class has tried to present sonielhing at once useful as well as beauti- ful. A lantern of the very latest pattern and equipped with reflectroscope attachment has been installed in the Lecture Room, and has alread_ - proven itself invakialile to the de- partment in ])rcscription and botanical work. ( )wing to the size of the class little progress has been attained in athletics. ( )ne person having won his P. on the track. In class games we were sadly in need of an etTeetive schedule and the eiTorts to attain it were futile, conse- qeuntly we can boast of nothing except an effort. Although no very active part has been taken in l ni- versity Life the Pharmics feel as keen an interest in the success of the L ' niversity as any other student, and believe that we have gained more in proportion to time spent and effort expended than any one else. There arc but few in the class whose ambition does not tend toward the retail drug business, and its elevation an l betterment. }ilany will ste]) directly into the management of a business of their own, while others will supply the much needed professional knowledge and skill in the ret ail establishments over the land.

Never in all the history of uur University has there been a class which t; ' ave greater promise at the beginning, and never has there been a class that so cnmpleteK- fulfilled the ex- ]iectations of its friends. h ' or three }ears we ha e Ijeen working together fi.jr the benefit of ourselves and mankind, and for three years we have been tra cl- ing steadily upward. Never in our history has there been a backward step. Never has there been a questionable move. ' hat is the secret of the success of the class of ' 06? Unity! I ' nity and aljility so ha])i)ily lilcnded that at times one cannot determine tn which is due our progress. Blessed with an enrollment which teemed with men of superiority, it was impossible tn fill class offices with any inferi(jr material. When leaders were chosen the class, to a man, backed them with a loyalty that was unswerving. bile the class as a whole has had a high standard, there were among its members some wdio could not follow at the pace maintained. That there should have been such we sincerely regret, although they do not bring discredit to the class. . s Freshmen ' 06 fought hard fur its rights. . s Soph- omor :s we were gener(jus and kind instructors of fresh- men etiipiette, thciugh alwavs iirm in enfdrcing our con- victions. As junidrs, we are entitled to advise and lead our underclassmen thniugh the arious difficulties which beset their college davs. Perhaps the greatest event which shews our charac- teristic leadership was the Junior 1 ' romenade held on March (ith. This was the first e ' ent of this kind of any magni- tude e er gi en 1) ' a Junior class, and rivaled in magnifi- cence any function ever Ijefore held at I ' urdue. The entire first and second floors of the Mechanical lluilding were used to accommodate the friends who par- ticipated. The large dance hall and ante-rooms were so elegantly furnished, so tastily deeorate l with (lowers and palms, and so uniquely lighted that, in them, one could hardly recognize the old study rooms. In fact, no efforts were spared which would add to the attractiveness of the evening. Many of the best known citizens of Indiana and neighboring states were present and helped to make the e ' ening one to lie long remendiereil. ' Idle Junior Class b • giving this function so success- fuUv has established a precedent which we Impe will termi- nate in a permanent custom, k ' rom this ear forward t(j ■ -ears in the future the Junior Classes of Purdue will vie with each other in giving functions worthy of our Institu- tion, but it is hardly to be expected that thev will ever sur]iass the initial one gi en ]) the Class of ' 06. Thus our class ever leads. e ' er pushes forward, and can be relied upon, as Seniors and afterward as men and women of the world, to adhere to the same principles which have been their characteristics in tlie past and which un- diiuhtedh- lead to success.

Dirka P iilfi President Reifel Time goes (in and with it our history. A year has passed since our Freshman liistory was chronicled and we now find many things to add to those happenings which ever tend to make our class feelings more closely united — many things that are both inter- esting and important in our class history. As is customary and nat- ural at Purdue, our first thoughts upon re-entering school were directed to- wards the annual tank sera]), fresh laurels were steadily added to ciur past as the days of the first gridiron battle approached and as the minor scraps were successfully disposed of. Terrifying stories were told by the nervous freshmen regarding that impregnable Sophomore spirit, against which resistance seemed fidly. Defeated and bound, night after night, the freshman ' s hopes seemed the role of a far away, flickering star. On that memorable night in Sei)tember, our army of warriors sang, laughed and jested at a dark host of nervous forms assembled behind the power house. The exhorts and commands of their [unior generals toned their shattered nerves, even tn the hopes of victory, but this very thing later made their dxerwhelming defeat a bitter cup. Citizen spectators claim that ne er before were fresh- man voices heard to ring out so willingl_y and helplessly as on that morning when upon bended knee and facing the tar bucket, they ga e that bitter . suphomore veil. We feel that we have done our traditional duty Ijy teaching another generation of freshmen to respect Sopho- more numerals, and when in June, we hand over to them that precious heritage, which we now defend, we will feel that we ha -e prepared them well to defen l their class rights against naught-nine. A very important fact, to which we early turned our attention and which we have certainly not neglected, is our relation to the memorial fund. Our pledge, which was large, has all been collected, and this is evidence enough that our spirit and relations to diU have not lagged. In athletics, our class is continualK- coming toward the front. We cannot all be athletes, but we have tried to show our spirit by helping in e ' erv wa ' that we can. We are well represented in the athletic association, both by officers and members. Our contributions to the football squad were very val- ualde and ve are indeerl proud of our heroes. lieside this, we have also put time and interest in our class athletics. In track we have also been represented and ha e made a creditable showing. From the above facts it can be seen that our past has been very successful, and that our prospects for the future are very bright. We ho])e to continue to make rapiil progress and to continue to hold and ever increase our prominence in the historx- and welfare of Purdue University. 171 THE HMAN CLASS OFFICERS. President 1 ' . G.

When the exams were over more than fmn- hundred had ]irii cd themseh ' cs wurtlix ' nf memliership in the class of ' 08, and all began at once the strenuous life of the Uni- versity Freshman. Soon we heard rumnrs of iiainted numerals. and Tank Scraps. and those less familiar being directed by those already acquainted with Purdue Traditions, looked northward, and behold! alreadv 08 in bold figures ap- peared on the tank to show the Sophomnres that we were not slow. Then we came together in our first class meeting to discuss meansof binding ourselves together by the bonds of friendship, and, our Sophomore friends bv other Ijonds. ( )n the final e cntful night we met around the tank and President Walters there were most closclv bound together. For. like Spartans of old. we came pledged to win or leave our bodies on the field (until morning). • T ) reci ird the daring and heroic deeds of that fateful night wiiuld require iilmnes. Let it here suffice to say that not a man waxered and. altliuugh we can record no victor) ' , e en our connnon enemies admit that we died game. Later, when the honor of Old Purdue was at stake in the athletic contests of the day, our class was not inactix ' e, Four friim nur numbers made the ' Varsity Team, and se ' - eral others b ' their nuble and efticient wnrk wmi the aib miration of the entire student bixlv.

Neither side scored, Isut the So]ihomores were content to let it so rest, rather than risk annther game. Again, in the spring, when the call for base-ball men was gi en. experienced volunteers from our ranks came forward to battle fur the l ' ni ' ersit ' . X either will the class of ' 08 be lacking in mental strength. Although some few ha ' e alreadv exinced the desire to gain wealth and ha e been persuaded to leave us to accept lucrative positions, vet enough remain who. l)v carrying forward their pre- scribed courses, will make the Class of ' 08 the biggest and best of Ol.l Pur.luc.

Ll CLASS HISTORY. c l l)y Pliann iiiSiy I absurd Our first recollections of Purdue arc mingled with ]i i c t u r e s of cool, shady walks, green lawns and lieaulifiil l)uilding ' s on right anil left. ( )n ] icing directed til the I ' harniacy lluilding at the extreme west of the campus, vc were somewhat disa|)|)(_)inted to note the dismal and age-worn struct- ure, but our first disappoint- ing impressions ha ' e been dissipated by the recollec- tion of the man ' pleasant hours spent within its walls. The first days were mark- the usual numerous difficulties of a Junior Class in acy, and to all these troubles the Seniors added will- )y stealing and giving our well pre|)ared yell. The things ]5ictured to us, the naught-five ' s loud ells President Murr and numerous other taunts began to be a weighty problem for such young heads. Xarious means were used to show our real strength, all of which proved to hv failures until a firm class organization brought us suddenly to the front, where we have ever remained a menace to Senior peace and haiipiness. (Jur first real conflict was with those things which came daily, and as a result, scared and weary Pharmics could be seen in nunil)ers. Pap ' s introduction to his (|uali- tative analysis was disastrous in the extreme. Our position in athletics, while not so prominent as that of other classes, still is one of which we may be jiroud. The class had hardly become acquainted with its sur- roundings when it suffered a great shock in the suiMen death of Livy E!. Sellers, of I ' ranklin, fnd. By various other reasons the class has been diminished until only forty-three members remain, who are ever striv- ing to place the profession of Pharmacy on a still higher basis, excel all predecessors and hail with pride our motto, fn Hoc Signo R ' inces. 175 ATr-rjL ' TI o ' o ' Athletics AT Pkesiiikxt IIiiUE Purdue Atlilclic iiilrresls al I ' linlue L ' liivc-rsity arc in tlic liaiuls cif tlir .tudi-nt holly, ami arc controlled by tlic students thrnnj;li the Athletic Association, to mcnibcr.slii]) in which ever stu- dent is elii ihle.

He is very clever with the pigskin, and booted it for long averages during several games last fall.

When the squad first reported for practice there were only four of the ' 03 team, and one man from the ' 02 team among the large number of candidates. With these few veterans for a nucleus we started to build up a team, and everybody from the head coach down to the rawest substi- tute, entered into the work with a vim. (Jut of the hard preliminar - |3ractice a team was developed that made an excellent showing against Chicago — our first big game, . fter that game we knew that the team had the ri.ght s])irit. for it put up a hard, stubborn, uphill fight during every minute of play.

The rooters, huw- e er, reahzed that we were ])la inj; ' against men with rears of experience on the griiHn n,and ihevstood b ' the team throiigh- ont the game, and at tiie end showed their loyahy by carrying tile players from the field on their shoulders. . fter this game the coach gave the team a lung, hard workout e ery night to prepare it for Indiana, the next and most im]jortant game on the schedule. Each member of the team was letermined to do his titnidst to win at Indianapolis, and the team s])ent hours in hard, persistent preparation. When the twelfth of X ' ovember arrived the ' were trained to the li(i n-, and the sent I. I ' , back to the wouds with the sh.irl end nf a 17 to scurc.

' hcn Thanksgiving came we were readv for the final contest, and when twilight fell over Stuart field that evening we had our reward, for the score stood: Purdue, 3 ' ); Xotre Dame, 0. This brought the season of 1 ' ' 04 to a successful close, and the team and its su])porters were well satisfied with the work accomplished.

Football paws if it fosters a character that is determined et fair, confident yet cautious, courageous yet kind, strategic et triithfid. conservative in its estimates of its owni strength and others ' weaknesses. I ' erha]is such t )otball is more or less idealistic, but it is possible, and the ]iossibility is worth striving for. To ilevelop it, however, cer- tain (|ualifications are absolutely necessary. The first and most im]iortant of these is disci f ' liiir. Xo project can be put through, no work done well, without organization and a head. . nd it must be a hea l in fact as well as name, one that can be held entirelv responsible and one that will have the individuality, ability and courage to stand in the breach. There is so nuich to consider and arr,ange for in a football season that a plan of campaign must be carefully marked out ami conscicntiousix ' and rigidly followed, in spite of favorable or .adverse criticism, assistance or opposition. Ihiiugh ;it an moment it mav be found necessarv to abandon the old ,-md adojii .an entirely new ]n-ogram. .Moreover, tln ' bead ol .illairs mrst ] osstss the eonli Ienee of those with whom he has to deal, for discipline mirst be based on worth, and recogni ed and tested power, else it is but a name mid its JOIl efficient strength is nil. The stronger the team the stronger must be its head. It is essential also that the individual be subservient at all times to the team and never should his interests be considered against those of the team. Second, there must be team work. There can be no in- dividual, no units; all must be cogs in the wheel, inconspicu- ous parts in the football machine. The real football star is the best team-man alwa3 ' s. Mien the football is advanced it is not one man that carries it but the whole team, and the man that has it in his arms is onl} ' the receptacle for the ball for that particular play. Also on defense, when a man makes a particularly good tackle, for example, it often is the gilt- edged but inconspicuous work of his team-mates that makes his brilliant tackle possible. Work for the team and forget yourself. In that way only can you do the best work. The third essential is drill. Drill on defense; drill on ofifense; drill! drill! drill! until the signals are automatic and the brain is left free to diagnose the play and to outwit and outmancuver opponents. There is where a great many teams fail. They think they know the signals and the plays, but when the crucial period comes, they hesitate for only a mo- ment perh aps, but that moment is their undoing. Then there is the drill on the rudiments of the game, the catching, pass- ing, and falling on the ball. Drill and thorough knowledge of the rudiments of football have made just the difference between winning and losing teams. It isn ' t jxissiljle to have too much drill, provided the players are able to stand the work. The fourth essential is conservatism. It is difficult some- times not to overestimate one ' s self and to underestimate one ' s opponents. Many a team has been licked by over-confidence. Of all diseases that man is subject to, swell head is the most despicable. Whether it attacks the individual or the organi- zation, if it isn ' t attended to prompt!} ' it is fairly certain to work havoc sooner or later. To consider one ' s-self only fair at most, but to determine that at all times and in all situations the opponent will get all one has and a little more, all the time without a let-up, and to prove one ' s-self no quitter, is the best introspective view one can take. A football team must use the same methods. To underestimate an opponent is at all times to invite defeat. The fifth and all embracing requisite for real football, the rule of three, the alpha and omega, the whole vital or- ganism in fact, is fight. Fight! fight! fight! And the word does not mean a pugilistic encounter, nor pugilistic methods, but courage, determination, strength. It pictures a f,;ce with the jaws set, the e es fixed, the hands clenched, the nniscles tense, and the br:iin ilriving the whole organism and continuallv cr ing I will, anil you shall not stop me! ' ou shall not, fnr I will sto]) iiu! This is the spirit that wins in sports or in the battle of life, and if a man can cultivate that and have it in him, it is worth while, it pays. ■i -JC , ' Thojias Going Tiuuiuiin Xutre D. me — ox llis B. ck 201 TllF.

The great barn which now does service is not onlv unsuitable, but is very nuich overworked. The necessit of boldiiig indoor drills in the gvm on almost e er d;iy during the winter ]irecliides the idea of a permanent indoor track, and the biiilt-np corners which our men have been forced to use are both difficult ;iiid daiigerons. .More than one good man is mil of track athletics to-day because of minor injuries received on the gyinnasinm banks. The shot-|iutters, high-jumpers, and, to a certain extent, the |)i)le- ' aulters are the only men who can train ])roperl with our present facilities, Xeverthelcss, some desultory attempts at indoor training ha e been made. Three indoor iiieels lia e been held in as main ears. Two of these wi-re belwxeii the freshnieii teair.s of Indiana and I ' nrdue. The third was the late arsily meet with .Michigan.

Many candiilates try for the team, and considerable interest is manifested 1) the student body. ' The secondary colleges, howex ' er, ha -e been develop- ing their teams ver ra])idl during the past few years, and last season deuKmstrated that I ' urdue is no longer in a class by herself, . bout fift ' men res])onded to the call for first ]iractice, and from these was ])icked a si|uad of three teams, . mong ihem were five 1 ' men an l a number of substitutes from the preceding ear. With them as a nucleus and the addition of several new men with high school experience, the prospects seemed good for a team as strong as usual. ' The X ' arsity was greatly benefited li - an e.xcellent second team, the two often playing e en in ])ractice. So it was always possible to |)iek a good substitute for any position. ' The men i irked hard and under the direction of Coach Xufer develojieil good team wcirk, and also the s] irit that made them play hard even when the opposing team had more gi pais ti p their creitit. The schedule included games with the best college teams of the middle west. These games were snbslilnted in ])lace ipf ciputests with the weaker Indiana colleges, .so the schechde was harder than in former e,irs.

Reeder The Purdue Exponent is a paper puljlishcil WLckly h the students of Purdue LTniversity. It is the only org ' an throug ' h which the student has opportunity to express himself upon matters pertaining to his welfare and woes. It informs him as to what is going on about him and in keeping pace with the University in its march of progress makes known to all the college world what are the aims and aml)iti )ns. the strength and successes of his Ahiia Mater. The ol)ject which is constantly kept in mind is U satisfy as nearly as possible and practical the investigative, intel- lectual and athletic tastes that every student has to a greater or less degree. It serves the true function of an only college paper in reflecting admirably the spirit of the school upon all matters pertaining to it. It is to be hoped that as time ad- vances ever} ' student may come to feel more a sense of owner- ship and responsibility and thereby help to make The Exponent represent even more adequately than now Purdue in all her phases. 2S1 The 1906 Debris BOARD OF EI)IT( )KS F.ilit(ir-iii-Chirf — Rru.

' 06 One of the most aetive and snccessful stn lent organiza- tions at Purdue University is the Purthie Society of Civil lui- gincering. It is the oldest of the engineering societies (or- ganized 18y3) and its purpose is to afford the students in Civil Engineering an opportunity to hear papers and lectures by experienced men engaged in active practice on government, railroad, municipal and other useful engineering work. The members also read technical pajiers ])repared by themselves and give talks on their own engineering experiences and ob- servations. Scircliiry — I, K. ' (jktii. ' ■Oo Ti-i-iisiiii-r — K. I ' .. W ' lHiiiHiFF. ' 05 .Much nseful information that caiuiot be brought out by routine class work is gained through the discussion of the papers and talks, and in other ways this feature of the meet- ings is quite beneficial. Resides serving to bring its members into ])ersonal contact with ])racticing engineers, the meetings of the societ}- tend to promote good fellowship an l better acquaintance aiuong the Civil Engineering- students. The st)ciety now has over one hundred memlx ' rs and enlists the acti e support of all students in the Civil iMigineer- ing department. 255 ' I ' lu ' I ' lirihu- I-:Uclrir:il Sucic-tv was l . mi(k ' l in IS ' K, ami cipTiliiiiK ' l uiidrr Uial naiiir until llu- iiti-Miil plan ul sluik-iit ini-nitHrship In tlu- Amrrican hiNlilnli.- nf l ' ' .lti.irical I ' jiijinefrs was inavij m-att-il.

Euson Sum.meks Robert Davis Kneale Ned. McGaughey Had one of Purdue ' s alumni wandered back to old haunts on the 6th of March, and happened into the room which had been made famous, to hiiiL b his Junior drawings, he would have gazed in astonisliment and wonder. Nor would he ha e recognized the roouL known to him onl - b - its (h ' awing- benches, in its new decorations. It was the evening of the Junior Promenade, antl the room was changed into a beautiful ball room. The bare white walls had been transformed by a border of southern smilax and pennants from colleges and fraternities, which were hung in great profusion. The windows were drapei.l in old gold and black bunting, the great pillars were twined with smila.x, a bank of ferns and palms in the center of the room hid the orchestra, and every nook had liecome a cozy corner. This was the first funior Promenade ever given at the University, and the Juniors wishing it to be an anrnial social function spared no pains to make it a happy event. Their success can best be attested by the fact that those present were still treading the light fantastic toe in the large hours ot the morning. Succeed thev certainl}- did, and the Promenade will go down to posteritx as the greatest social event of Purdue. CozV LOKNEK 299 TLhe flftinuct Club MEMBERS 1905 Harry G. Leslie Albert L.

Don ' t you know that the a|)pearance of .some seventv-five of our illustrious students was of the o-reatest service to that re- nowned disciple of TheS]iis? Don ' t vou know that Jimmy Cain, long the hero of the minstrel stage, was attired in a cos- tume of such brevity and incompleteness that a ' arsity track man in the audience blushed and left the theatre? Don ' t vou know ? But of course you don ' t. In mv Sophomore vear it was announced that the great and onlv Mansfield would play Julius C ' . ' esar in Lafayette. Following this came the tidings that a large number of extra men, alias ' supers, would be necessary. The advance agent paled a little when he saw the mob which ])resented itself. He attired Jimmy Cain as the King ' s courier ( in thi ' scantv costume before mentioned), because the sylph-like lines of Jinimie ' s figure seemed to promise rare spee l and endurance. He selected liill Kaylor and Mclver for ' blue- bloods ' of the Roman Senate, because of their dignity of bearing, and on second thought handed the long-haired . ver- ill a cast-oft toga with instructions to be on hand in case Cas- sius broke training. Rusterholz and 1 larrv Warren were sized up as being safe men to trust with the Queen ' s litter, but the King was given a ' hunch ' on the side, and he had them treated with 1)lack walnut furniture polish (externally, of course). Uobby Woodruff was given a noise producer and told to lead the victorious armv as chief trumpeter, but later when the spot-light hit his pink tights he balked, tried to turn around, and telescoped the first section of Cresar ' s royal train. I ' or this becoming modesty he was transferred to the Queen ' s retinue and docked ' two bits ' in salary. ' aile and DeHaven kicked because the costumer wanted to paint Alarc Antony ' s pony on their heads. Kneale de- laved the whole works fifteen minutes trying to get trans- ferred to the post of Brutus, which he said was being ruined.

Gates, Rush, Porter, Sale, Hoftmark, Morris and a host of other gallant knights were enrolled in Ca?sar ' s body-guar ' .l with Joe Minor as lance corporal on the rear end, wdiere he could spit in the wings. I might tell you of the rough-house over Cresar ' s corpse, in which Tark .Mien leil the citizen ' s union against the Hardware Battalion and gained experience for the later attack upon Columbia Hall. I might guess pretty closeK who it was that broke the leading lad ' s ribs, and I might relate a dozen other interesting features, but ' whot ' s ' the use? — and the Senior relapsed into his meditation. 327 Left Over from Girls ' Number of Exponent The Imnish di L.

The shorthand artist jot- l lint; ' do n the substance of the comersation to be hied in the archives of the Trust. The h ' idelties are all prefect dears because the be- lie e as we do in beino ' exclusive, and they don ' t si)eak to e ' er ' one thev pass on the campus, as some of the other frats do. Irish Connors knows so man ' loxelv |iu Jitsu holds and cnzv corners so eii- tertainino ' that 1 do belie ' e him when he says that he has enon!.; ' h magnetism to electrocute a InitterRy. Colonel Liowser is testint; ' a water ])urificr at the Thieme ' a.s;ner Brewery, for a thesis, and the rest of the chapter drop in to help sto]i up the leaks in the vats. I hate to see the crjlonel waste his technical skill on the ai|ua piira end of the plant when he has the capacit ' to test the whole outfit. Thev don ' t believe in so])honiores and are tr inn ' t(T get alono- this year without am-. The office savs that the so]ihomore year is the most unhealthy year in the course.

The Sigma Xu ' s and S. . . l ' .. ' s butt in a few there too, but their stronghold is the ' ' ' 8 club and bleachers. I asked .Sale if another obscure col- lege had been rescued from oblivion b ' the entrance of I ' hi Delta Theta, and if their 89 chapters had expanded to ' ' 0 during the week, and he didn ' t seem to like it. The first speaker being designed to rt ' U with a long cnt-oll fin.dly exhausted to atnios;dieric pressure, and ujion nientioning the Sigma Xtits. the single triphammer was replaced by the melodious ' il)ration of the chorus.

Their stock of conversation has dwindled considerablv since I ' airbanks ' election, but they will have another chance in four years perhaps, and in the meantime Duck Coppes can talk of Nappanee onions and how much of the burg papa owns. The Phi ( ianis having fnalh run out, someone re- marked how difficult it was to keep in touch with the S. A. E.
