JOHN NICHOLAS AMBLER OENTGEN RAYS, as its name implies, is a literary instrument by which the world at large gains an insight into Roanoke College life. Timid bays are seen to enter the institution as glireshmen, verdant rats. Friends at home, especially the fair ones, see them at each vacation, and, now and then, receive letters from them. Finally these boys leave college as dignified Sezziaz' gwzffezzzefz. They are admired, but their admirers have no intimation of all the love occurrences, comical incidents, and attempts at greatness con- nected with these polished graduates during their course. lf this publication sheds any light on Roanoke students, whom you know, it has served its purpose. Putting into print the ridiculous events herein recorded has been attended by difficulties-difficulties insurmountable by any others but the board of editors-and if this issue is found wanting in any respect we attribute it to opposing influences rather than to our inability. NVe have been compelled sometimes to lay down our pens to carry trunks, we have been asked for our judgment on paintings and poetry executed by the rats against the sophs, or zfzkz' wzfszz. The Annual Staff had hardly organized and gone to work before it was announced to them that Pro- fessor Ambler had resigned the chair of Mathematics and joke-ologyf' Of course, this very naturally put us out for quite a while. VVe knew not where to find jokes to put in The Annual, and before we could get ourselves together sufficiently to request Professor Ambler to give us a volume or two of his most original jokes, he had gone to the country of the Tarheels carrying with him every volume he had. lNe were left sorrowing, however, only a veryishort while. As soon as Professor Greenwood had got- ten himself well together in his new position. we were agreeably surprised to find that he would some day make as good a joke-teller as Professor Ambler ever dared be. This, however, is not all that Professor Greenwood can do. l-lis coolness and judgment in the midst of battle is equal to that of Hannibal or Caesar. On the morning of the Rat-Soph. battle in front of chapel, his coolness did more to calm the excited warriors than a dozen cops with billies could have done. This is not all that has interrupted us in our work this year. Wfhen we came back to college last fall, we found that Doctor Painter had resigned the chair of Modern languages, and Doctor Roderfer had been elected to fill the vacancy. For some time the pen had to be laid aside in order that we might become acquainted with this new professor. And now, the difficulties being overcome, we must make imperative the fact that skepticism absolutely can not be tolerated, doubt concerning the events herein recorded is IiOt pardonable. lfVe wish to thank those outside the editorial board for their cheerful assistance. EDITO' FRONT VIEW OF COLLEGE BUILDING A Sketch of Roanoke College EVERAL years ago the distinguished political economist, Edward Atkinson, coifiparing the economic potentiality of the different sections of our country, said, after mature reflection, that the Blue Ridge and Alleghany section extending from Pennsylvania to Georgia and Alabama was destined to produce the thriftiest and most progressive population of any part of the United States. These words, written in the spirit of prophecy, are now being fulfilled. According to a recent bulletin of the United States Department of Commerce and Labor, North Carolina, as a manufacturing state, ranks second in the Uniong and it is well known that Southwest Virginia is witnessing the greatest industrial development of any part of the Old Dominion. 1 Rev. C. C. Baughman and Dr. David F. Bittle, both natives of Maryland and graduates of Pensyl- vania College at Gettysburg, were therefore building more wisely than they knew when in 1847 they deter- mined to remove to Salem, Virginia, the Virginia Institute, which had been opened by them five years before in two log buildings near lVIt. Tabor Church, about eight miles southwest of Staunton. The location at Salem was doubly fortunate, because it was accessable to both the Lutheran Synods in Virginia which gave this Institute their support, and because, while enjoying the advantages of close contact with the outer world of scholarship and culture, it was free from those evils which beset colleges situated in large cities. Never since the removal to .Salem has Roanoke College seriously considered the question which now confronts some of her sister institutions in Virginia-that of removal to a center of population and wealth. From the beginning the Rev. C. C, Baughman was the principal of this school, which, in 1845, had been incorporated by the legislature as The Virginia Collegiate Institute. The movement to secure a col- lege charter, the initial steps toward which wereltaken by the students themselvefs in a petition to the Board of Trustees, adopted 'by the students, December 3, 1852. Professor liaughman at first considered inadvis- able, but he afterward withdrew his opposition. The wisdom of this step of such doubtful expediency at the time, has since been abundantly justified. 1-The act of incorporation was passed, March 14, 1853, the institution fortunatelyfadopting the name Roanoke College. Although one of the younger colleges in Vir- I ginia, among the existing Lutheran colleges in the United States, Roanoke ranks fifth in age, or second, if 1842, the date of the founding of the Virginia Institute, be regarded as her birth-year. Professor Baughman having accepted the principalship of another school in the spring of 1853, Dr. David F. Bittle was elected to the presidency, a position filled by him with the greatest devotion and self- sacrilice until his death in 1876. To him fell the duty of leadership during the trying years of the Civil XVar, the darkest period in the history of Southern education. It was due to his tireless energy that Roan- oke, unique among the colleges in Virginia, continued her work throughout the war. l-lis enthusiasm for books, which is still a tradition among the people of the Southwest, led him, with far-sighted prevision, to begin the collection of that library which is now the pride of the College and which in the number of volumes is surpassed, among the educational institutions of Virginia, only by those at the University, and Vlfashington and Lee. lt was his genius which stamped upon Roanoke College her peculiar hegemony in the cause of Christian education in Southwest Virginia. lt is therefore eminently fitting that the Virginia Synod should endow at Roanoke a professorship in moral and intellectual philosophy in memory of the man who filled this chair in addition to performing his duties as president. After the death of Dr. Bittle, Dr. T,-NV. Dosh was elected president in 1877, but resigned the next year to accept a professorship in the Lutheran Theological Seminary, then located in Salem. Dr. Julius D. Dreher, who had been connected with the College as professor and hnancial secretary, was then called to the presidency. Witli rare ability he addressed himself to the task of putting the institu- tion on a iirmer financial basis and of elevating the standard of instruction and graduation. In conse- quence of these measures and of his wide acquaintanceship, Roanoke began to draw students not only from other states and the Indian Territory but also from foreign countries, especially Mexico, Korea, and japan. The first Korean to win the B. A. degree at any institution in the world was graduated from Roanoke in 1898.1 The cosmopolitan character of the students of Roanoke gave her pre-eminence among Southern colleges, while, with the elevation of her standard, the solid quality of the work done in her classrooms gave her prestige throughout the North. ln IQO3, after twenty-five years of efficient service, Dr. Dreher resigned the presidency and was suc- ceeded by Dr. A. Morehead who was called from the presidency of the Lutheran Theological Seminary 5.35.1 .Sum , .1 REAR VIEW OF LIBRARY BUILDING near Charleston. During the short period of Dr. lVIorehead's incumbency movements have been launched which, as will be seen later, are destined to be of the greatest importance in increasing the usefulness and widening the induence of Roanoke. In honor of the semi-centennial anniversary of the College, the graduates and ex-students resolved to replace the old main building with a newer and handsomer structure. The present well-equipped adminis- tration bnilding is one result of their efforts. 'lihe final results of this concentration of generosity and loy- alty remain to be seen, for this undertaking has proved the beginning of a new chapter in the history of Roanoke College. Such a movement had not escaped the notice of Mr. Carnegie whose systematic benefactions are known to all. Isle offered to give the College 525,000.00 as soon as the indebtedness of 310,000.00 on the new building and an additional f2f,,OO0.00 should be raised. NVith commendable resolution and unanimity the friends of Roanoke rallied to her support, and within a year the completion of the required sum was announced. In the meanwhile, as intimated above, the Virginia Synod resolved to establish a separate fund of 525,000.00 for the endowment of the chair of moral and intellectual philosophy. By means of the enlarged endowment, two new professorships can be added -a need now rendered imperative by the increased attendance of students. In a short sketch of Roanoke College it is impossible to dwell on the changes in the personnel of the liaculty or the Board of Trustees. Among the factors which have determined the character of student life at Roanoke, there are none, with the exception of the classroom instruction, that are more important than the literary societies. 'lihe present societies are the outgrowth of the Philomathean Society, which was organized at the old insti- tute in Augusta county. ln order to have the stimulus which springs from rivalry, the members of this par- ent society resolved to form two societies. Accordingly two of the members, Henry Anderson and john ul. Scherer were appointed to make the division, each to choose alternately. The former, with his support- ers, chose the name Ciceroniang the latter readily and appositely selectedthat of Demosthenean. For many years an annual contest between the societies in essay, oratory, and debate was held on the 22d of Febru- ary. But a supposed breach in etiquette having been committed, these contests were discontinued, each society holding in its place an annual celebration-the Ciceronians on February 22d, the Demostheneans on Leels birthday, january 19th. In recent years this latter date has been changed to. a day early in March, about two weeks after the Ciceronian celebration. The junior Debate, which was for many years an import- ant public performance of the Demosthenean Society, has likewise been abandoned. The interest of the public and the members themselves has, however, been more than sustained by the prize contests in debate and declamation now held by each society shortly before commencement. Roanoke is one of the eight members of the State Oratorical Association. The much coveted medal of this Association was won by a Roanoke seniors in ' 1897, and was also taken by a Roanoke alumnus who was studying at the University of Virginia. At one commencement at this University, the final orators of the two literary societies were both Roanoke men Nothing in the student's life at Roanoke is so effective in maintaining the moral toneand in setting a high standard of Christian conduct as the Y. M. Many a graduate of the College looks back to a meeting of this association as the turning-point in his career. ln brief, its influence can not be measured or even estimated. ln every movement that aims at elevating the ethical tone of the student body, as the adoption of the Honor System in 1902, the members of the Y. Nl C. A. have taken the leading part. The people of Baltimore have recently pointed out with just pride that in the list of I,OOO most emi- nent living scientists, compiled by a high and disinterested authority, the johns l-lopkins University trained 144, or about one seventhw- a larger number than either of the older universities, Harvard or Berlin. The people of Salem may point out with similar pride that among the 554 alumni of Roanoke, many are now hlling positions of the highest importance to society and the State. Thus among this number there are 158 ministers, 26 college presidents, professors, and principals of seminaries, 58 teachers and school superinten- dents, 86 lawyers and judges, and 48 physicians and surgeons ln addition to its graduates, the College has trained in whole or in parttabout 3,5oo students, who, having gone from Roanoke either into the professional schools or into business, are now contributing much to the progress of the country toward the realization of higher ideals of thought and life.

JUNIOR CLASS Y History of the Class of '08 HEN we, the men of '08, entered the classic halls of Roanoke College, on September 14, IQO4, we were doubtless very Hgreenf' as is usually the case with ratsg but as time has flown we have been steadily improving along intellectual as well as physical lines. Old Roanoke has an interesting history, extending over more than fifty years, and the Class of '08 certainly deserves mention as one of the most worthy and dignihed that ever gathered within her grand old walls. lf the writer had space he might, perhaps, portray to you its life, serene and inspiring, and lead you, if only for a short time, into the pure and lofty atmosphere which it breathes, but as it is, he can give you only a brief sketch of the work done by his class. From the very beginning of our college life we have had a tendency to stick together, which was caused at first, perhaps, by stories of the rough treatment rats received in college: later this spirit was developed, until now we have a class that is truly a class, standing by each other at least in everything that is worthy of the effort of Old 'O8. Early in our college life we elected Stemple president ,of our class, and since that time he has filled his office so well that he has never had a rival for the honor of leading the men of 'o8, and of waving us on to victory with Old Blue and VVhite. Our clss has representatives from a number of states, the Old Dominion having the largest number, but Wfest Virginia and the Old North State are strongly represented. Our class standing is far above the average, as is shown by the fact that our men have secured by their earnest efforts a good part of the First and Second Distinctions since we have been in college, and will doubtless carry off more than ever this year. Wfhen itgcomes to a question of loyalty to the class as a whole, and to our colors, if you will pardon the expression, we are right out there. Wfhenever it is necessary her brave sons are at the front ready to do or die for the honor and welfare of 'o8, and for the support of our grand Old Blue and White. And when we give the Class Yell, led by that old stentorian shouter, Bill Dameron, we make the quiet air of Salem echo and re-echo with our hearty shouts for the class and its grand old flag. JUNIOR SPONSORS i -A In athletics we have been very successful, but as former historians have recounted our victories in detail I wsill not repeat them. It is sufficient to say that in our Freshman year we won the proud title of Champions of the College in baseball . In football we have been nearly as successful, but have not entered into it with the interest and enthusiasm that won for us pre-eminence in other branches of athletics. The athletic ability of our men has been recognized by every class in College. VVe had the honor this year of furnishing the Varsity football team with three of its best men, one of whom was its Captain, and another is the Manager for the coming season. In track athletics we have some goodlmen, one of whom, although handicaped by lack of training, made some splendid records on field day of last year, and won the medal for being the best all-round athlete. Unless we are much mistaken this man will make some records this year that Roanoke may well be proud of. Our prospects for a winning baseball team this year are fine-all of last year's team being back and two good players having been added to our roll. Some look forward, conhdent of victory, to the time when our team will meet those from the other classes f In the College work we have men who will, in future life, make their mark for good in the world. For who in College can make higher grades than the Reid Trio. Ur in the field of Chemistry what class has ever shown better men than '.'Prof Boone, 'fDoc. Painter, and Prep Davis? lYho have more promis- ing careers before them in chemical experimenting than Priestley, Schedef' and .-Xvogadron? In concluding this brief sketch of our work, I would say that although we may have fallen short in some respects we have at least made a great effort to fulfill the purpose for which we came to College-that of building a character noble and good, and last but not least, of building up our bodies so that we may be able to withstand the storms that will assail us when we go out in life. And now I leave it to future histor- ians to describe the deeds that will be done by the men of 'oS, conhdent that they will be of a character that will make Roanoke proud of her sons. ' I-Irsfokiax.

HE early history of the Sophomore Class has a peculiar interest for those who perceive the relation of its events to the subsequent development of, the Class. And it is not without propriety that we search for the comment of great effects. To furnish an adequate history of the Sophomore Class would require more space than is here allotted to me, so l must conhne myself to a rigid limit. ln September, IQO5, about ,forty rats, as green as St. Patrick's emblem, were assembled to form the Class of YOQ. VVe entered upon our duties with a diligence and determination which, if pursued through the entirety, would insure success. Recognizing that there were two phases of college life other than the intellectual to be included in that full rounded manhood toward which we strive, our men soon became requisite on the athletic field. Wfhen the 'Varsity was selected a gratifying percentage was of Soph. QIQOQ men. D Vifhile it is not in conformity with college politics to allow rats to sport, yet the rats of lo9 gained unusual favor among the fairer sex, so that at every social eventother classmcn were to be seen cast- ing side glances of green-eyed envy toward the men of 'o9 with their companions. The beginning of the present session found most of us again assembled to resume our studies. Of course, being Sophomores, we naturally felt a little disposed to display our superiority, both intellectually and physically, over the very awkward, uncouth denizens of 'io. But we refrained very desert-ingly. and the only instance in which our sovereignty has been questioned in the least was concerning the propriety of unfurling the 109 Hag over the majestic domc of old Roanoke, which was quickly determined, much to the sickening disgust of the rats. The Sophomore Class, having taken so decided a lead in every phase of college life. thought it would become them to institute some fete which would eclipse anything of the kind ever attempted by a class. Accordingly, on lVIarch ISE, at l-lotel Crawford, was instituted the first annual class banquet. The hall that night, beautifully decorated and with the dazzling lights, presented a scene of splendor and hilarity. Inter- esting speeches and extemporaneous talks were rendered by members of the class. The banquet evidenced a brilliant success, and the precedent will doubtless be followed by any class which may conscientiously FRAY, L-SH End ENGLEBY, Lef1Tackle CLINE, Left Guard ROBERTSON, Cerner STRAS, Righz Guard COLE, Righz Tackle HUMPHREYS, Rlghn End DARNELL, Quarter Back BUTLER, Lefn Half Back KELLY, Full Back COOPER.

' And now, almost at the close of the session, when we look back upon the years diligent efforts, it is QQ l l ' fthe College, and our men feel confident of the with genuine gratification thatwve recognize that our class has been one of action and energy and not one of sluggish despondency.

FREISHMAN GLASS FRESHMAN CLASS FRESH MAN SPONSORS 1 Freshman Class History N that memorable morning, the Ioth of September, IQO6, the fifty Freshmen who came up the old walk that leads to the College, and upon which many other Freshmen had trodden before, were awed by the groups of lordly Seniors, learned juniors, and haughty Sophomores in front of the College, who whis- pered rats, as they passed by, and by thelmajestic buildings which loomed before them. These rats were of many different shapes, types, and sizes. Most of them hailed from the Old llomin- ion State, but there was quite a sprinkling from the Old North State, the rugged mountains of lliest Yir- ginia and Tennessee, old Missouri, and even from the far off Land of the Rising Sun, japan, and Korea. VVhen they came out of the business room and matriculation office most of them had light purses and heavy hearts, and their thoughts turned back to Home, Sweet Home. lint as they had signed np for business, they started in with a vim that, for a while, took the Faculty's breath, but soon getting over their surprise, they commenced to pour it into the poor homesick rats, and the non-preps flew thick and fast. The Class soon organized, elected their worthy president and other ofhcers, selected their colors, yell, and motto, and got themselves in good shape generally for the coming nine months of hard stndy. In athletics the Freshman Class is on the spot. ln football it furnished two of the best players on the 'Varsity team. They also had an a-one class team, which, under the good management of Captain Sayers, came so near beating the Sophomores in the class game that they won only by one point. The baseball team has not yet blossomed out, but we are sure that Captain Fox will lead his men on to victory. Also they expect to come out with high honors on Field Day, as there are many good men in the class who expect to make their debzzl then. Several times during the session the Sophomores honored the class very much by raising their beauti- ful flag of Vermillion and blue. The rats nobly responded by doing the same for them. They had a few other small frolics with the Sophomores much to the enjoyment of the 'Io's. As a whole the Freshman Class had a very pleasant year of fun, frolic, and study, marred by only FRESH MAN FOOTBALL TEAM one sadx event, the death of their highly esteemed friend and secretary, VValter C. Banks, of Salem, Virginia, who died on the 24th day of December, IQO6. But now as their rat year is drawing to a close they feel real pretentious, and look forward to next year with a great deal of pleasure. They are sure that Old Roanoke has a right to feel proud ofthe Class of 1910. ' HISTORIAN. t??ESQififif fzeifzfdw-525552 CHN D. RODEEEER, A. ivl., PH. D., Professor of Modern Languages.

OTI-IING is more pleasant than a short journey through beautiful mountain scene:-y,where the rugged peaks strive with the snowy clouds to get nearer to the vaulted heavens, and, as a reward for their effort, are crowned in the final' moments of the day with clouds made golden by the last rays of the setting sun. The trees seem to be encouraged by the peaks and they, too, stretch their leafy lengths toward the blue dome. Between the peaks a broad valley presents itself to the view, and nestled in its bosom is a farm-house,which someone calls home. I had heard from a traveler that such scenery could be found along the F. S. V. Railroad. Last summer I decided to spend my vacation in the midst of this scenery at a summer hotel, known as The Scenery, recommended by the traveler. I had to take a train down to Rough Bend, fifty miles from my place of business. l'Iere the F. S.V. crossed the other rail1'0ad. I arrived in Hough Bend at about nine o'clock in the morning, and was soon down at the F. S. V. depot awaiting the train. The F. V., No. 1, soon came into view, and, as the engine passed me with screeching brakes, I recognized a famil- iar faee in the cab. It was Prof. Ambler, and I unhesitatingly ran up to the engine, as soon as it stopped, and climbed aboard to shake his hand. Another surprise! There was Prof. Smith shoveling carbon, and the other elements of which coal is composed, into the fire-box. Since I knew the engineer and fireman, I felt perfectly at home and did not go back to the coach, Prof. Ambler soon started the iron monster at the conductor's loud All Aboard 2 Of course, my curiosity was aroused, and I began to ask questions. With shouts, gestures, and other elocution, amid the rumbling ofthe train, I learned from Prof. Smith that F. S. V. stood for Faculty's Summer Vacation. The road was financed and built by the faculty, and operated only during the summer months to accommodate tourists and the summer hotels along the route. Prof. Ambler had made the survey, and the corners were magnificent. I was told that the entire crew was composed of the faculty. Prof. Cannaday was conductor of the day coach and Dr. Painter, of the Pullman, with Prof. Peery as porter. Prof. Morehead was rear flagman, and Prof. Mann brakeman. In the express car was Dr. Rodeffer, while Dr. Fox was baggage master. Prof. Mclieynolds was postal clerk. I had heard a famil- iar voice advertising novels, candy, peanuts and fruit, and I found that Prof. Copenhaver was the newsboy. No railroad can boast of having a more scholarly crew on any of its lines. Yet, I earnestly believe that there are bet- terthings than railroading for a college faculty. The F. S. V. was running under great disadvantages. The very scholar- ship of the members of the crew was a hindrance. A scholar in the classics, philosophy, or mathematics. who is thoroughly practical in railroading, cannot be found. After I had been in the coaches and talked to the members of the' crew, I learned the obstacles of the road. There was Prof. Ambler who stopped his train in order to tell a joke to everyone he saw along the route. Every time he stopiied, the flagman was required to go back to flag other trains. The stops were so many and the work so rough that the flagman struck for an increase in salary. l I -Once the train gradually came to a standstill. The conductor and I went forward and found that the 'hreman had thrown 1-I2 O on the fire as an experiment and was chalking down his results in chemistry symbols on the.end oflthe boiler. The engineer had taken advantage of the stop, and was out in a field hunting grasshoppers to take to his class in Zoology, when college opened. , The mail clerk wasted valuable time in reading all the posta cart s in l 1 ' the mail. lle also required that the addresses on letters be written in shorthand. No one could persuade the express messenger to han e a pac ag German. The baggage master threw trunks and suit eases around in such a positively philosophic manner that pieces of dl k ve unless the written matter was in either French or baggage ,were torn open and law suits resulted. The conductor in the day coach sometimes absent-mindedly refused tickets. He was thinking that they were excuses. The brakeman is a great musician, and insisted on going to the engine to play tunes on the whistle. The Pullman conductor was always writing poetry on the sides of his car, and talking to his passengers concerning the English classics. The porter expected too many tips, and became sullen and impolite if tips were not abundant. l gave him a tip of a 1167116 He became very talkative immediately, and told me that Dr. Morehead was traveling agent for the road, and was absent most ofthe time. Prof. Kolmer was attorney for the road, and had so many cases to attend that he was almost overworked. - - Prof. Morehead insisted on flagging other trains with examination papers from the Senior Class, but these were so poor that other trains would not stop to read them, and collisions were narrowly averted. The newsboy danced around and flirted with the lady passengers so much that hc sold no papers, peanuts, or fruit. The train made slow progress-so slow that the scenery became monotonous. llowever, I at last arrived at, '1'he Sceneryf' At the end of my vacation, I returned to resume my work. During my stay Prof. Ambler. the engineer, had resigned. Prof. Greenwood, a veteran engineer on the Oxford line, succeeded him. The conductor confided to me that he thought schedules would be more closely adhered to because of less stops. Hut alas! the new engineer soon began to tell jokes, too. Another hindrance was that he could not follow Profi Ambler's corners. Several times when coming down the mountain, he cut across corners. Now all railroaders will tell you that this is a strain on the trucks, and in order to eliminate the wear and tear it was necessary to build spans of rails across the corners just to accomodate the engineer. V At Rough Bend I bade the crew good-bye. I have since heard that the F. S. V., with M r. Andrew Carnegies help, is laymg 3 double track P1'9P9-l'at01'Y to 0Pel'atlDS 9' trunk llne- l 1'rznt'nil l..

The history, if it could be written, would be exceedingly interesting. lavery member would find it one of the brightest chapters fromlhis own biography. It would be a record not only of his crude attempts, but also of his ripe efforts in composition and oratory. He would live over again the old conflicts in debate, and feel again the fire in his young ambition. But no man can write it. Its facts are locked up in the cherished memory of thousands who are scattered throughout the various parts of the world. It would be absurd to attempt to tell the story on a single page. Only three of the original members are now living. It is remarkakle that one was the first president, another the first secretary, and the third the man who suggested the name. The old hall, where the meetings were held for seventeen years, Went down four years ago with the third story of the old building. It was an uncomfortable place, but judging from the lives of those who received here their training in public speaking, the work done in it was of no mean order. Since 1867, the Society has had Trout Hall, named after Hou. John Trout, one of the benefactors of the College in its infancy, and, at the time of his death, President of the Board of Trustees. lt is conveniently arranged and beautifully furnished. Strangers find it one of the most attractive features of the institution. It is one of the few things remaining to link the present and the past, and here the old members, on returning will find that after all it is the same old College. A half century makes a venerable man. The shadow behind him looks frightfully long. But it is not so with an insti- tution. A literary society in a college at fifty is only a youth. The asterisks on the roll of its members may be numerous, yet the boyish life continually flowing into it keeps it fresh and young. The Demosthenean Society, made up ol' young men, is as strong and vigorous as it was when their sires thought they were helping to make the finest ornament of the College. Proud ofthe past, the weight of years falling on the Society does not oppress them. The same high hopes of the future swell their hearts that stimulated their predecessors. Like the men of the past, they are striving to carry off the honors of their classes and fit themselves to win success and fame in coming life. The record of the year has been one of the most successful in its history. The celebration on the eighth of March was pronounced one of the best ever held. The work done by the members at the 1'egular meetings was faithful. The men who will go out from its hall at the close of this session will bring new honors to'the College and add fresh laurels to the Society. P We can not speak of all those who have distinguished themselves, and do not, therefore, care to mention the names of any. 1 But we will say that President Morehead, who was a Demosthenean, has niet the highest expectations of the friends of the College' T llisroxiax.

CIIRI:I'II'I' MISS IQATHERINE GIYENS I+ MISS ELLIS HIILLANIJ X History of the Ciceronian Literary Society DON after the founding of the Virginia Collegiate Institute, now Roanoke College, in Q343, asociety known as the Philomathean was organized. By mutual agreement of its members this society was equally divided in january, 1850, and two new 'societies were organized. Dr. S. C. VVells and C..C. Ballgh' man were appointed to devise ai scheme for this division. Accordingly they reported the very simple plan that the half of the members whose names began with the letters nearest the beginning of the alphabet should constitute one society and the remainder the other. The object of the society as set forth in its constitution was, and still is, to train its members in proper modes of thought and expression. As the membership was at hrst small, the exercises consisted of debate only. From this small beginning the membership has increased till now it is seldom less than forty, and the exercises consist of reading, declamation, debate, original paper, and oration. The officers of the Society are president, vice-president, secretary, assistant secretary, treasurer, censor, first and second critics, chaplain, and usher. In order to promote the highest possible interest in the work ofthe society, medals for proficiency in declamation and debate are awarded. An orato'r's medal costing twenty-Eve dollars is given jointly by the two societies. The Ciceronian Society has taken its share of the medals in oratory. Among the many Ciceronians who have risen to positions of honor and distinction may be mentioned: Julius D. Dreher, Ph. D., former president of Roanoke Collegeg l-lon. james XY. Klarshall, ex-member of Congress, and C. Armand Miller, D. D., for some years assistant Professor of Greek in his Alma Klater and now one ofthe most prominent pastors in New York City. The members of the Ciceronian Literary Society have ever been animated by the spirit so well expressed in her motto, Non nobis sed patriaef' and if past achievements are in any way an index to the future then may we look forward with confidence to the years to come: and whether her sons are called from her halls to the arts of war or to the sublimer arts of peace, they will be found ever ready to respond to the sacred C211 of duty- H.

Young Menys Christian Association N accordance with the principle for which Roanoke College has always stood, the spiritual as well as the mental and physical developments of young men, there was organized during the session of 1867-68 the Young M en's Christian Association. At its organization there were only twenty-live members, but since then it has greatly increased both in member- ship and influence. Tlirougli the kindness of Mr. M. l'. Moller, of llagerstown, Maryland, the Young Men's Christian Asso ciation was presented with a handsome organ. The purpose of this organization is to develop Christian character, and to carry on Christian work among the students of the College. The Young Men's t'hristian Association stands for all that is noblest and best in college life, It takes a special interest in the new stuilt-nl. pointing out to him the great importance of the work, the benefits and advantages of his early becoming a member Un each Tuesday evening are held regular gospel meetings, which are very helpful to all who attend. Missionary meetings are held on the first Tuesday of each mouth. These meetings are very instructive. On the first Tuesday of each month are also held the regular business meetings of the Young Men's Christian Association. After the remodeling of the main building, which necessitated the destruction of the old hall, the Young Men's Christ- ian Association lahored under ditliculties, being obliged to hold its meetings in the College' chapel. In the early part of last year the old business room was neatly litted up and the Association has since conducted its meetings to better advantage. The Young Men's Christian Association always sends representatives to the State Conventions. This year eight dele- gates attenmled the convention at the time.-sity of Virginia, aml the outlook is good for a big delegation to the Southern Student Conference at Asheville. Among the able and instructive speakers whom it has been the pleasure of the Young Men's Christian Association to hear during the present year are State College Secretary C. C. McNeill, Traveling Secretary of the Student Volunteer Move- ment, H. F. LaFlamme, Rev. C. I.. Brown, who is at present a missionary at Kumamoto, Japan, Dr. A. G. Voigt of the Lutheran Theological Seminary at Mt. Pleasant, and Messrs. XV. G. Pendleton and VV. R. Bowie, students at the Episcopal Theological Seminary at Alexandria. liev, lluddle, of lVashington, delivered the annual address before a large body of Col- lege men and friends. The Association has been more successful this year, and now has a larger enrollment than ever before in its history. Besides this, three very faithful Bible classes have been organized and are doing good work among the students. Let us hope that the good work may continue and that the influence of the Young Men's Christian Association may play a .still more important part in moulding the characters of Roanokeis men.

Loach Conner, who did so mucn last year to put Roanoke's team back in its old place, placed the strongest team in the history of the College upon the gridiron this year. The season opened with a practice .game against the Roanoke High School. Although the l-ligh School boys played snappy ball, it was impossible for them to win against their heavier opponents. The final score was 5-o. The next team, F. M. S., was a little tougher proposition, and at times it seemed as if Roanoke would certainly lick the dust. By continued and firm opposition to Fetzer, who was the whole team for F. Nl. S., we were enabled to pull out with neither side scoring. The third team we met was R. lVl. A., a school which has been defeating Roanoke for several years. This year they proved to be easy, Although the Bedford spectators prophesied that we should certainly be defeated, we won out by the score of 17-o. On October 27, we went to Lexington at V. llfl. l's. request to give them a little practice game as they expressed it. In about five minutes after play commenced our All southern quarter-back, Johnny Link, was knocked out and Bowers substituted. V. M. l. seeing that she had entirely underrated the strength of her opponents now tried to advance the ball by puntingg but here also Roanoke was equal to the occasion. Bowers playing defensive full-back took the ball on the bounce and ran the length of the field before the cadets knew what had happened. V. M. l., by hard playing in the second half, was able to score one touch-down and a goal. But for a wrong decision by the umpire the score would have been at least Io-6 in our favor instead of 6 -5 in V. Nl. I's. favor. V. P. I., our next opponents, have been defeating us by enormous scores for the past three or four years. This year, had it not been f th fi : ti the score of 12-o instead of 18-o. i or e rst ve or ten minutes of play, we would have been defeated by 'lihe last three games ol' the season were played ata great disadvantage. Hampden-Sidney, Rich mond College, and Randolph-lNlacon were played on successive days. Handicapped by loss of sleep, travel, and brusies received in each game. we were able to keep the Maroon and Gray out of the dust only once. At Hampden-Sidney neither side was able to score. After completely exhausting us in the first half, Rich- mond beat us by the score of 29-6 Although every man was bruised from head to foot, RandolphflVlacon was unable to run the score higher than 17-o. Great interest has been manifested this spring in base-ball. Plenty of good material has shown up and Captain llranaman has put one of the lastest teams in the State upon the diamond. Gut of ten games played up to this time we have won half. 'lihe prospects loolc good for nine out of the fourteen games scheduled. fffivilkngs X Baseball Line-up C2ZfJflZf7'Z--BRANAMAN A Coach-VVILLIS LW E'e!f!-M0014 Ceizie? EIEXM-MOORE Rzgh!

The Goat Ranch HE ambiguous subject l have before me is so completely beyond the compass of this volume that we held a long deliberation whether or not to even inform the outside world of the existence of such an organi- zation THE ANNUAL is a production of the student body, so the reader will obviously see that to have engaged a journalist of international repute to sketch even an adequate history of the Goat Ranch would have been an imposition upon the urgent, but thoughtless, request of the Board of Editors. Your humble servant began with the intention of declaring to the world, There is a Goat Ranch. Mad, indeed, I would be to expect even to approach a description of any phase of the life experienced on the Goat Farm. As for the actual measurements and the outward delineation of the place you may be able to conceive an appreciable idea by the above photograph.. knowing that it is a diminution by one thousand lens of the famous telescope owned by our former patron and enthusiastic member, Professor N. Ambler. Professor Ambler, although Steere Professor of Mathematics and Astronomy went deep into the recesses of photography, with the sole view of being able to photograph the Ranch according to the latest approved method of Euclid. This gentleman on quitting our institution bequeathed his famous pedigree goat along with some personal property, to our very much honored President, Mr, NV. R. C. Dameron. Right here it behooves me to say in respect and honor of his memory, that Mr. Olin Davis, of Texas, was the originator of this Order. hlr. Davis is now at Princeton, where, we understand, he has established the Beta Chapter of the Royal, Ancient and Mysterious Order of Goats. As I was going on to say, Mr. Dameron, the Grand Noble Tush-llfiuck, in the Chamber of justice rules and presides with the dignity becoming to a Dic- tator. llis will is inevitable, his power absolute, his spoken word is inexerable, his very thoughts are record- ed by the Secretary, and when he calls, a thousand blating Goats come rushing to do his bidding. tThese few remarks to show the reader the atmosphere that envelops the deliberations of the ofhcers of the ranchl. The next big Notary is the Vice-President, Skinny Darnell. His main duty is to subdue riots instigated by the jealousy of the outside student of the privileges and pleasures of the Goats Then comes the Secretary, Doc Taney, who is so proficient in recording matters that it is stated, upon the veracity ofl. XV. Link-ministerial student-that he copied a Wfarning to Lovers in sixty-hve minutes, at the end of which time his pencil needed sharpening and he had to take out time. 'l know the reader has half uneionsciously looked forward to the next officer with the interest of the organization at heart, .for the handling of such vast sums as are necessarily encountered, demands a man of unblemished reputation and whose executive ability as a financier is beyond question. All his misgivings, however, were ill-timed, for in the person of Primrose Gus Bow man a man filling all these requisites was found. We have had unprecedented success in receiving recognition in the national judiciary. The Board of Directors was extremely fortunate in securing the invaluable services of the present attorney, Mr. F. L. Pickle, who is a diplomat of the hrst water. Wfe have two officers whose duties must for the present remain a secret. These two worthies are Cutie Barger, who is called Puncher, and Pete Saul, who is called G, C. C. If indeed, l should expound the duties of these officers the reader would only be more confounded by the technical terms which would necessarily be involved, lt is now my duty, privilege, and pleasure to make mention of the last ofhcer-fax! in enumeration but first in the hearts of the Goats, - I-loto Preston, janitor, the pride of the institution, who has rendered inestimable services to the Ranch, and who has endeared himself to all the members by his ever cheerful disposition, scattering rays of sunshine, as well as dirt, wherever he is per- mitted to go. ' . At 4:45 reveille this morning the following members were present: Rom.-Goat Dameron, Kief Darnell, Doc Taney, Primrose Bowman, Cutie Barger, Pete Saul, l-lopcroft Preston, Vlfreck Johnston, Lily Killey, Angora Stras, Heinz Pickle, Old Bill Kinton, Beauty Hoff man, Wfad Link, Stude Pray, Qakey Hans, Polly Fox, Conkey Logan, Cupid Chapman, Cuss Bran- aman, Maggie Connor, Legs Cline. , A few of the boys must have been absent, for I noticed four or Eve of our best goats wildly running around and sending forth those hideous yells as they always do when not called into service.

The scene is a beautiful Grove near the Banks of a winding river. Pacing restlessly to and fro is seen a solitary figure. It is a Young Mtziizz, engaged in meditation, apparently, for there is an air of deep abstraction about him that suggests an effort to Link the past and the present. He is suffering with a disease that often assails Yotmty college men, especially if the location of the college be in a town noted for pretty girls. He is thinking of her and wondering what she is doing, is she at her Gam-ett window dreaming perchance of him ? The .Moore he thinks of it, the iflhore-probable it seems, and he tries to Rtinzffhjer as she looks moon- TVm'cZ, wondering where he is. Imagination is a tricky thing, however, and now the iieeting shadows are Seen to Iffock him, and, to his fancy, she is looking into the eyes of some more fortunate swain instead of toward the moon. This thought fills him with alarm, and thus he banishes it as unworthy, for he knows she will not Clltefftltcffiz nor Iiizfter-self of him, now that he is so far from a de- Cline. He thinks of her many charms, and within him arises a desire for her. He murmurs she is a living poem, her every move- ment is grace personified, in her is to be found every element that is adorable, I would that I could glorify her in beautiful verse and Oonnfhjer oier in melodious Song. He, wishes he were a Sw!!-an, and thinks if he could he would Littrell-ly smother her with Blessing-s, regardless of the Price. He would have C'f,frpenz'ers build a Brown palace with a golden Smir. Oh, yes ! she should have every Boon granted to Jlflcmn. So he would pass and Repczss, wondering what Folkes did do when they were in his condition. After much mature deliberation he concluded that Sings show the way the wind blows, so he would watch and see if he could not read the signs of the timesf' After this wise decision he turned toward home as he was a-F1-my-etl he might catch Uoleif he remained in the night air very late. After such unusual exertion of his mental faculties he was quite hungry, so he decided to get a bachelor lunch. lle made the fire after much labor but it was hard to keep it burning as he could get nothing but Bowers of Greemrnocl and that does not catch on easily. He went out to the llfellfsj, which lay to-the L66-TVQITII, and let the pail fall in with a Plonk, bringing it out again with repeated Iimiks. On his return he was assailed by a TVolfke, hut being an expert Rfoanokej Ctnllegej Bfnwmm., and carrying also a keen Bowie, he had no fear, as he pridect himself upon his nian-Ikmd. The Iiutletr had given him a Ebac, and, although he had never eaten one, he decided to try it. lle put it on to Hwy-1, which it did, fortunately, -as the wood was UM-feyj. llis sister ,fillfffflD67'80H had not retired and they supplied him with Pickle and some kind of TWZSI1, stew. - A . ,Y , Before he retired he determined to Berry his affections if possible, but if not he would be 1'I'tl1td'lll1Ll tell her like a lkkmn when he returned to Salem.A He remembered that it was not Ufelftonj for boys to remain up late, so he hastened to bed to dream of adventures of the Iklorroiu and also for the remaining Wfeeks of his vacation.
