White and White Carnation History of Class 1905 - T is a fragrant retrospection to glance back over the history of an honored •41 and honorable class. The Foolish Dictionary gives as the definition of •• history ■• the evil that men do, but thanks be to the individual honesty and perseverance of each member of the Class, this can not be applied to the Seniors of 1905. Intelligence and moral worth combined can be the only basis of class prosperitv and. I trust, with this fonndation the thirty-seven girls soon to drop link bv link from the Class chain, w not soon be forgotten. The calamities of vesterday are the p Jtectors of to-day. The sea of school- life which we have jnst navigated and from which we are landing safely at Port Diploma •• is full of perils, but it is not an nr mown sea ; it has been traversed over ?nd over again and there is not a sunken rock or treacherous sand-bar which is not marked for our avoidance bv those who ha -■ -)receded us. We all live dm lifes. the external lif. which the world sees and the internal life of hopes and fears, jovs and griefs, t Mures and successes, which is hidden from the eyes of the world and revealed only to a few. This is especially true of a college class. . To-day we meet to glance over our history, and then on the morrow it will be stored away as a sacred memorial of the Class of 1905, amid the departed triumphs nnd failures which go to make up the eternal past. For four years our own in- dividual histories have been closely allied with that of the Class. Together we have plaved the various r6Ies which if played unerringly lead up to that enviable position of •• leading lady. Together we have viewed the ups and downs of green young Freshmen, bold bad Sophomores, love-sick Juniors, and to-mght you see us as we have jovfullv and successfully completed the r61e of stately Seniors. A Class was starting-point of three of our members, Louise Greenert, Gertrude Tesh, and Esther Hampton. Who would recognize in the sweet girl graduates of to-night the little school maids who eight long years ago started Pt the foot of the ladder and who have carefully climbed up round by round until thev have safelv landed at the top and are now ready to step off into the world! ' Swiftly has Old Father Time cut off the successive months for us since we were green voung Freshmen. Our greenness has ripened into the brilliant burs of wisdom, ' Still, we have shadowy recollections of long hours spent m poring over Caesar and even building facsimiles of his bridges, which, had that learned gentleiiian been alive, niiglit have contained valuable suggestions for C -Esar him- self in tlie bridge-making line. In our Sophomore year we organized for the first time.— not that it was neces- sary to have officers to keep the bold bad Sophomores in order, but because we had begun to feel our importance enough to claim organization. We selected our motto, •• ' irtue bears off the palm, our colors— green and white— and our pins, gold shields set with emeralds and pearls around the enamel which contained thj letters A. K. N., the Greek symbol of our motto. We have never changed our colors, motto, or pin, thus proving that though our brains have become more in- dented by •• Hamlet,- Longer English Poems. Childe Harold. and the like that our tastes are the same and that consistencv figures largclv as a trait among us. And then, almost like a stereoptical view, our Sophomore vear was waved by and we hailed the Junior. Being together in room, company, hfe, naturally pro- duces a closer class relation. Probably in our Junior year for the first time we felt that true class spirit which has meant so much to us. On September 1st, 1904, the one sad event of our college life cast a shadow of sorrow over tlie entire Class when we lost one of our most honored members— Josephme Seddon. She had faithfully worked up from Class A, successfully completmg her Junior year, when the Angel of Deatli presented her with the di- ploma of another graduation than ours. And so she passed, lamented by all who knew her, mto that fair realm where the weary are at rest. Finally, we reached the coveted position of Senior. We were at last to be re- yarded for ,iur years of hard labor by the Oxford cap and gown. And what one of us d,d not consider it reward enough when first she donned her dark apparel and jomed the long procession which filed up Main Street to see-but mostly to be seen ! W hat one of us did not feel her ambition kindled to do wonders ! for Resistless burns the fever of renown Caught from the strong contagion of the gown. _ Early in October we elected officers for our Senior year, which resulted as tollows : Nell Rhea .... p - , r resident Cammie Lindley .,-,,, Vi.c-President RIyrtle Deane Second Viec-Prcsident f= ' ' = ' ' P Secretary Lula McEachern Treasnrer Florence Moorman Historian Ora Hunter n , roct 10 It is hardlv necessary to say that each one of these yonng ladies has done her dnty. The end crowns the whole so can not the end of the Senior year — that is commencement — speak for them? Perhaps one of the most enjoyahle eveninjjs spent in onr Alma Mater was cm Fehrnary loth. when the Class of ' 06 so royally entertained. The invited guests, consisting of memhers of the Senior Class and Faculty, were ushered into the chapel where tliev were gracefully and cordially received by the officers of the Junior Class. The chapel was artistically decorated and an hour was spent in this attractive place during which the social feature was rendered ver - jjleasant by mu.sic and song. At 9 130 the guests were escorted to the Refectory which was transformed into an ideal spot. The tables with their snowy cloths, their white candles in the handsome candelabras, the white carnations and little sprigs of fern lying here and there carried the Senior Class colors — white and green — out per- fectly. After ])artaking of the dainty refreshments, served in course, the intellectual programme began. Dr. Clewell acting as toast-master. It was midnight ere the last guest had taken her reluctant departure, each and everv one voting hearty thanks to the fair entertainers who had shown their s(.icial powers to such advantage. It is interesting to know that the Class just now ready to disband forever has scored more Sine Erratis in Biblical Literature than has any preceding class in the annals of the History of Biblical Literature in the college. And again, although previous attempts had been made, the first Aiuiual owes its origin to members of the Class of ' 05. And now the last page of our Class history is at hand — the farewell page. We have fought the good fight and we have come out as wise as Solomon, and now, we leave this history as a model to all succeeding classes — a history that would have made Herodotus himself exclaim well done!

The Druids, later, gained their knowledge largely from oaks. Some vears after the disbanding of our Class of 1905, I was in New York strolling through the cosv nooks of Central Park, standing idly under the shade of a sheltering oak. I seemed to hear sweet music among its leaves, and as I looked up some acorn cups fell around nie ; on taking them up, to my great surprise I saw nivstic characters inscribed therein. When 1 had examined them a little closer I could easily decipher them. Strange to say my surroundings brought back to my mind the sweet and happy days I had spent in dear old Salem. Almost uncon- sciously I called the names of several of my classmates, still I held the acorn cup fast as if impelled by some magic power and dreamily read the names I found there. x gain and again 1 repeated them before I could read any more, and this is what the beautiful little nut told me of a few of my chums and classmates who had lived with me within the walls of the Academy. Cam, soon after leaving school, traveled a great deal in North and South America : during this time she developed a great desire to see all there is to be seen Nothing would do but that she must go across the seas. She has visited every feature of interest both in the New and Old World. Just at this time we find her in London, the belle of the season, with lords, dukes, and ministers at her feet; quite a striking contrast between the quiet retiring Senior of 1905, but then one nex ' er knows. My next friend I find at a place far removed from the first. . s we enter the Exposition Grounds at Jamestown, ' irginia, amid all its beauty and grandeur, in one of the most picturesque and striking buildings we find a person with, The One Talent that of incessant talking. On entering this place your first impres- sion is that vou are all alone, but only for a few minutes, when a beautiful woman comes out, tall and stately. Immediately she begins to speak of some wonderful machine. Only ten dollars and you can become a perfect beauty. The speaker ' s face seems strangelv familiar, and all at once it dawns upon me that it is no other than Estherw. She tells me about the wonderful improvement in herself, and says 25 her one object in life is to give others a chance to become beautiful, and thus she talks and talks until I am almost overpowered by her flow of words. She tells me of Jenkie, who lives in the neighboring countv and has become known for miles around as a great trucker. In the Agricultural Department we see why Jenkie should thus be renowned, for her name is on all the largest and finest fruits and vegetables. Next a little woman comes to view, with soft brown hair of darkest hue ; she IS very frisky, and goes tripping along, and after trying to guess who this bright butterfly is. we follow her and see her walk into a large stone mansion which is stately and grand. She is married, and we ' re glad we know her a little, I ' m sure. Again I took a peep into my acorn cup to see if it had anvthing further to • reveal of my classmates. Florence I saw out in far-away China. If we pass a certam missionary ' s home we will see a little woman very busy mixing some- thmg. This is a wonderful patent medicine Florence has made; it er|uab Dr. King ' s New Discovery, and is working miracles. Where, oh. where can Margery be? While at school she declared she would live m the South. Sure enough, there we find her. as happv and as gay as of old so loyal to her Southland that she has incorporated it with her name. ' Louise took a long journey and became a lady of high degree. I say oh can It be our Louise? But where are the smiles so bright and so gay? They have all fled becau.se of the gay life she has led. At last one day she said. I am tired of all tins societ)- and show ; I am lestined to impart great knowledge I know So to school once more she wended her way and is giving out wi ' sdom galore till this day. One on his way through our sunny Southland chanced to stray and found a Pearl. She shines in the autumn and in the soft summer air. He says by .rood chance that way I strayed, for there our Pearl caroled forth. Behold ' the sweet maid ! Mamie, a woman of the world, now a,,pears, and though when in i„str,n she was a retiring maid with no desire for dancing and dining, now she takes by storm this big world of ours, and sits in the moonlight by the hour In a far-ofif Western city there stands a college of renown, and the teachers all are witty from the Greek professor down. All the professors are completeK- under tlie influence and control of one, and who can that be? Are vou surprised to know tis our Myrtle you see? Many people have been very anxious to know whether Mars was really in- habited or not. Ethel while at school was one of our most brilliant scholars where electricity was concerned. At one time, when we went up to the electric station . VV mston. Ethel darted from place to place asking every possible question. Thus 26 slie was jirepared as an electrician to run a twentieth centnr - railway from the earth to Alars. The fare there anil hack for one person is only six niillions of ilollars. Rockefeller, (umlil. N ' anilerhilt and several other nnilti-niillionaires have been over, bnt as yet I ilo not think any of our girls have ventured. Mittie we find in this city keeping a restaurant; all the fashionaljle iieoide in the place go there to (hue with their friends. Now, little acorn cup, have you anytliing further to sa. ? I )n looking into it 1 dti not see the characters that were there when I first took it up. Tired and hungry, I dropped it to the ground and a squirrel quickly snatched it up and carried it to his nest. Just at this time I became conscious of the hour and hastily wended my way homeward to think over what had been revealed to me concerning these members of the Class of 11J05. R. L. S., ' 05. 27 Class Prophecy, 1905 TjT ' ' E, years had flown swiftly by since our daisy festoon fell apart at Salem T|] on Commencement Day and we. the members of the Class of 1905 were scattered m every direction. Santos Dumont had. after various experiments, succeeded in fitting out an air- ship that was no failure and was a grand sight as it floated above the tree-tops and then like a bird went swiftly out of sight. I had heard so little of my old classmates in these five years that uhen he sug- gested to our party a voyage in his airship, with all the luxuries of modern travel- ing, with the permission to go where I chose. I gladly accepted his ofTer As I was near our national capital. I concluded I would look ui. Mai.lai who 1 had heard was there. The alighting from this somewhat unusual equipage caused no little stir in the street ,n front of the New Willard. As I was turning into fhe hotel a handsome automobile whirled past and in its beautifully dressed occupant I recognized the girl for whom I was looking. She knew me too, for in a short time her card was brought to me. I descended to the parlors where I spent a pleasant half hour with She had married a young politician who had afterwards risen to a prominent place, which was remarkable considering his youth, but after hearing how popular his dreamy-eyed companion was I could not help wondering if his political suc- cesses were not partly due to the influence this trick of the eves had gained for this gentleman. As we were so near New York I decided to look up Mary, as Maidai told me she was there and interested in the Red Cross Society. We expected great things of Mary when we left Salem but had no idea that she would attain to such an eminence: for upon visiting the headquarters of this useful organization and in- quiring for the president, in order to obtain permission to see Mary, imagine my surprise when m this im,:,ortant personage. I recognized the very girl for whom I was looking. ' After talking to Mary a while she began laughing, and asked me if I had heard of Ora. L pon telling her I had not, she gave me the latest news concerning that member of our Class. Soon after leaving school. Ora had married a very pld millionaire, who was shortly afterwards killed in a railroad accident. After her terrible bereavement she lost all interest in social events and retired to her beautiful country home on the Hudson. I remembered quite well Ora ' s fondness for pets at Salem, so was not at al! surprised to learn that she was now spending her time and her millions in making a most original collection. Her two hobbies were peculiar-looking cats and various anti-fat remedies. lust before telling Mary good-bye she asked me where I should next stop, and upon learning that I was starting on a long journey, she gave me a copy of the last Cliristiaii Herald to take with me. Among the news in foreign fields I could hardly believe my eyes when I saw an account of the progress our mission was making in the heart of Africa. It was not the announcement of our success, but the name of the person through wdiom so much was being accomplished that surprised me. Of course the minister in this ])lace was doing much, but the great attraction with the people was the noted vocalist wdio sang at all the meetings. And ' t was this name that startled me so, for it was no other than our Class President, Nell. On leaving Salem, she devoted herself entirely to the cultivation of her voice and after several years of hard study, she went to this place, with an unpronounce- able name, so that she could learn from the song-birds of the region a few notes wdiich her vocal teacher had been unable to impart to her, and while there had consented to help the missionary in his religious services. We little thought wdien this noble songstress was among us in good old 1905 da s that we were living with such an incipient prima donna. By the time I had grown tired of pursuing this line of thought I had reached the Egyptian capital where Annie was searching for some lost records of the times of the Great Cleopatra. But upon inquiring for her at her hotel I found that she was not in the citv but had gone on a little further down the Nile and had left a letter for me, as 1 had written her that I was coming to Egypt. In this somewhat brief epistle she told me of her work during the past five years ; of her failure in finding the lost sheet of papyrus, and of her determination to remain in this place until her efforts should prove successful. She asked me if I remembered the description of ATiss Blimber in Doiii- bcy and Son. and said that now she was as dry and dusty as that young lady, so she did not care very much if she never returned to her old home again for after all modern things were very dull when compared with the deafl and buried wonders of the ancient world. All this certainly seemed strange to me for .-Knuie was nothing like that when I knew her. Pud after thinking of this (|ueer. fancy for fossils and antiquities I concluded it wr ' ust as well that I coulil not wait for her return. From Egypt we went northwest to Gibralter and thence to old Granada in orc ' er to visit anotlier of my classmates who was living in the habitable part of The Alhambra xvith lur husband, a Spanish count, first cousin to Alphonzo XIII. She had met him uhile traveling abroad the year after leaving our Alma i iatcr. It was difficult to recognize in the careworn countess the gay, frivolous I ula I heard from her that iMamie was now in Paris getting her trousseau for she was to be married soon. So I found that after five Aears of efTort Mamie had succeeded m makmg good the statement she once made in the Bishop ' s Latin Class after gravely having read Horace ' s lines : Nos habebit humus. ■ ' The man will have us. I could only visit the gay, French capital a few hours, but during that time I heard ot another of the Class that seems to be making ' itself so universallv useful Before entermg my hotel I saw small boys rushing up and down the streets distributmg papers to passers-by, but I did not stop. After I had been talking to Mamie a short time a friend came in with one of them and asked if we had heard of this latest and greatest of modern inventions ■ a help m private families but a treasure of inestimable value to hotels. This scientific invention was a tiny concern that looked a great deal like a small book when closed, but when opened and at work in the dming-room in less than four and one-half minutes all the dishes were cleared awav, washed, dried and placed again on the table ready to be used. A brass plate on the lid of the machine, bore the name of the inventor— Aannie. J then came back to the Cuited States and as I was stopping m Chicago one night I thought I would spend the evening at the theater as everv one was tlilkin about the .splendid elocutionist who was reading selections from her poems tliat had been written in her school days. At first I did not recognize this girl for she had grown so small since I last saw her at school, and to my surprise it was Stella, whose great height had been used up in lofty thoughts until now she was little more than three feet tall Leaving Chicago I went West to Los Angeles, California, for Stella had seen one of our Class when there and had told me about her. It was Birdie. She had .gone out there to sta - with relatives, as she had never married. Perhaps her many disappointments had acted as an acid upon her once sweet disposition. At any rate she was now so unbearablv cross that no one could stand her. Even the black cat of the household would hum,, up its back at her whenever she came into the room. I then hurried on to new Orleans where I found Esther. Since leaving Salem 30 she had taken a course at Cohunbia University in Math, and now she was a pro- fessor of that branch of study in H. Sophia Xewconie. This was quite a surprise, knowing Esther ' s dishke for Math. We talked so much of Sak-ni while together that 1 decided to stop there on my way North again. The school was not greatly changed. The halls were still full of happy- hearted, merry girls, only the buildings bad grown more numerous and the faces were unfamiliar, but just as happy and cheerful as when I knew each girl by name. The only iy05 girl I saw was Louise, who was living in her old home making every one happier who knew her and doing good unto man - whom she did not know personally. And I could not help thinking that after all such a life of self- sacrificing love and devotion was the best thing a wnian could do. L. X. F., 05. .•?• Class Prophecy, 1905 ji I was only a few niglns till Commencement, the happiest and vet one of the Jl saddest tnnes in the hoarding-school girl ' s experience. Aly tired head was teemmg with all kinds of fancies, and so fast did the hrain-cells work that everythmg was i.itpossible, even sleep- sleep that knits up the ravelled sleeve of care. It was getting later and later an.I the old clock kept striking the hours with . a vengeance, bttt finally about - the honeyed middle of the night ■ ' mv wear ■ eve- hds dosed and I fell into a kind of trouble doze. Scarc lv had I begun to slumber before, one by one the Seniors of 05 went glidmg by. each one holding fast her sheepsknt. and I seen,ed to be able to see far down through the long vista of years and the future of each one was plainly depicted as nt a vast panorama As JEN.N-.E can,e by with stately tread, her life was distinctlv clear. She had left school w,th the nttenfon of making her life not onlv a success, but also a verv UK us nous one. She taught a public school out in the-backwoods for some ve and then resolved to estabhsh in the same place an n.stitution of learnin . on a bo s Hal . she determmed to pattern hers on that style, and when the •• sulphur and treacle mormngs came around Jennie and her estimable consort, whom she ad only marrted because she needed an assistant in her work, had all thev could do to ntanage , , for American children are a great deal livelier and mo ' re n,is aTkall T :r T ' ' f- ' ' T ' ' ' ' ' ° ' ' ' ' ° ' - ' -°-- ' ' - had been emarkabl to„d of apples when at school, she had them put before her pupils h.ee tunes a day.

She thouMit fee ly satisfied She started out with that intention, but soon decided that it would I.ttle cottage than try to keep up appearances at anvthing else A stout cluibby little girl now passed, bubbling oveV with laughter and who should It be btit Lizzie 1 She always had great aspirations, and soon aft;r she lef c T?

She was always determined to carry her point, and actually held audience spellbound with her eloquence for more than four hours at a time. Who should I behold now, sober and dignified, but Geokgia? Her destiny was extremelv uncertain, for she was no sooner at one thing than she tried another. She blazed forth like a glittering meteor in society. Then she tired of that and tried being a trained nurse and fully believed she would be a second Florence Nightingale in her labor over the sick and wounded, but after one season con- cluded tiiat it was too irksome. Georgia then tried keeping a menagerie of trained animals, making rats a specialty, and spent her leisure time in reading novels, but still she was restless and discontented. For a good while one of the sterner sex had been insisting that she should change her name, and finally this gay young butterflv, after having tried everything else, clipped her wings by settling down in a bright little home just for two, and owing to her many varied experiences found this to be such a novel one that she lived happily ever after. A girl about six feet in height, with such a sour expression that she might have bitten a ten-penny nail in two and not felt it, now appeared before me, whom I recognized as Lilliak. Her life was quite remarkable. Having resolved that she would travel all over the workl with only a monkey for company, she started out. After beholding all the wonders of the New World, a longing desire arose in her heart to cross the mighty waters. As she had spent all her means, she finally devised an inexpensive way. She sang and her monkey danced, and thus made enough money to travel from place to place. Lillian was heard to boast afterwards that she didn ' t think there was a foot of land in Europe which she had not traversed. Her appetite for wandering finally having been satisfied, she began the raising of poultry on an extensive scale, and as her chickens won the first prize at a countrv fair, it pleased her so nuich that she decided to make it her life work. The next to come into the circle of my vision was Bess. Her whole life, with the different events following rapidly, was before me. After leaving college, where she had grown so wild that her parents put her under very strict discipline, and when she was thought sufficiently tamed down, she was launched in society, Bess was extremely anxious to make a hit. but the one whom she most fancied ended in breaking her heart by marrying her neighbor ' s cook in preference to her. So, disappointed in love, she went to a convent and there spent the rest of her life. Sister Bess was so untiring in her good works that she was known far and wide as the dear, kind sister. I anxiously awaited to see who would be the next to present herself, and as she appeared I beheld Annie Sue. She had travelled this life ' s pathway both in sunshine and in storm, and like Micawber was always waiting for something to 33 turn up. .She ,labl,k. l ,„ the sconces and tried to make gold out of a combination of copper an, zmc. but never succeeded-not quite. Annie Sue then turned her attentton to the stronger sex and at last found her ideal, all but the eolnr „f his u.,r. which was a fiery red, but she was getting too ancient to let a little ihin bke tliat stan.l in the wa of her happiness, so she covlv whispered ■es to hit |ileading. ' ■ ' So interested was I in seeing the futures of mv companions that I cnnld hat-d y wa,t for another to con.e, but there she was, a large, boisterous maiden, 1M. K S. by name.

Now whose future would be unveiled to me ' And even as I wondered there stood Gertkud.. After her school days were over she couldn ' t make up her ndnd what to do, as she was Jack of all trades and master of none. She could plav a •ttle, smg a httle, and even knew how to draw funtn pictttres slightlv So e became a nevvspaper illustrator and spent her tin.e in ' drawing ludicrous pictures for P ,- . and otlier papers of note. Soon her brain seemed exhausted, and she deeded to peddle her latest mvention from house to house. This was a machine guaranteed to enable one to whisper something so that just the person intended could detect ,t and no one else. But Gertrude, wearying of this occupation, said barkis IS wdhn to a rich-odd-son of a distinguished famih- M.ARV NiiWMAN ' s face, smiling with joy, now gleamed forth. Havino tried tor years to make some one propose to her and failed tiiiserablv, she now ' ' disap- pomted and ch.sheartened with life, decided she wanted to be independent, so ' she set up a bachelor-girls ' hall, to which she invited all forlorn damsels that were t.red of hvmg and hated mankmd in general, to come straight to her loving arms Marys work was not in vain, as she had many applicants. She spetit her ti.ue in lettnig them wear her beautiful jewelry and comforting them. Stkli .v ' .s golden head now came into view. Her one ambition had been to be a graceful actress. Even when taking her weeklv gvm lessons in college she showed great talent in perfornn-ng daring athletic feats. She got in with a com- pany and played everything from Juliet on. but after vears of hard labor she fell ni .th a star company and was quite a success as Marguerite in Goethe ' s Faust . ly vision was now getting dim and more indistinct, but a slight fluttering ittle sound brought me to myself. Jicrusha was standing there bowing and cour tesymg. She had lots of trouble with her beaux in school, but after her education 34 was completcfl the trnuljles increased with tlie greater number of her suitors. At last her admirers dwindled down to two, and she was unable to decide between them, . fter some years she chose the taller, as she thought they would make the handsomer couple. She hesitated whether she should have a swell church wed- ding or a quiet home affair. Jerusha ended by eloping one dark night, as it was nmch the cheaper way and had far more romance to it. Xiiw the vision faded completely; the other girls passed through my dull brain like shadows, and 1 knew no more till morning. M. E. H., ' 05. 3S Two Castles I. Dear Heart, there ' s a castle, Just over the way Where bright-winged hopes and fond wishes stay And myriads of golden sunbeanns play Round a castle called FUTURE Just over the way. 11. By its side stands a castle, Grim and gray Where the hopes one by one steal silent away And the fond wishes go at the close of day To the castle called PAST Just over the way. 36 J JUNIOR CLA55 Junior Class President . .

The chronicles of the first and second years are almost lost in the dust of antiquity, but when C class was reached 08 began to have a history. Alany of the present members joined then, and when D class was reached it was recognized as the Class to come. D was rather unruly, but like the crysalis. became a butterfly in the Freshman year, and one of the most troublesome members is here this vear to ask in an innocent way: Is Julius Caesar still living? I he first lueeting took place in our beautiful classroom, which the Sopho- mores left in such splendid condition for us. We chose our officers and put on all the dignity of an organized class, in spite of being called green young Fresh- men by the Seniors. The colors selected were maroon and gold, and our motto is h ' ■. (.)ur membership has been forty-two until the loss of two of our mem- bers. Lucille LaBeet and Saidie Cook. The Class of ' 08 is unusually bright, which is more than the unfortunate Milton, who has been set down in our Class annals by our most talented mates as having a decided dislike for books. Our behavior is remarkable, for we have only one fault. ( lur Latin teacher says she never saw a class with a greater propensity for pencils, which we chew with much relish. Honor has been the lot of many Salem girls. Two have presided at the White House, and quite a number have been the wives of the most noted men — foreign ministers, generals, and writers. But the Class of ' 08 means to eclipse them all. and In hold the highest honors of the world. Ole Elton t ' LOXEL. up there ' s your high and mighty kinfolks that I was teUin ' Ml you about. said Tom Bramiock, pointing to the left with his whip. Colonel Elton, president of the Happy Valley Mining Companv, ' glanced in the direction of the extended whip and saw that a turn of the winding mountain road had brought into view a tall, grim-looking peak that rose abruptlt- out of Rainbow Mountain, wherein the iron-ore mines were tocated that for the first time he had come to inspect. So that ' s my new relative, is it? he said. Well, he ' s a fine-enough- looking fellow ; but what makes you say he ' s my kinsman ? There was a humorous interest in the questioning tone, for although he had come to Happy alley only the night before, the silver-haired colonel alreadv en- joyed the drawling remarks of this slow-voiced, quick-witted mountain bov so much that he had insisted on Tom ' s driving him to die mines instead of the ob- sequious superintendent, who had offered to do so. Why. that s Elton ' s P ' int. or as most everybody calls him. ' Ole Elton. ' said the boy. That ' s why I told you last night you had kinfolks here. •• But where on earth did he get the name? inquired the Colonel : • I didn ' t think it was such a common one. It ain ' t common ' round here. replied Tom. but how he got it. and got to be so well known, is a long yarn. Xone too long for me. heartily declared the Colonel. begin right now. Tom looked embarrassed, but nevertheless began, having in view a possible foreman ' s place in the mines. Well, you see. this affair happened in the last part of the Civil War. so of course I didn ' t see it. but everybody says it ' s so. Capt. Robert Elton. ' Rob Roy ' his men called him. because he had red hair — • ' Rob ! exclaimed the Colonel. Why. that s— . Well, go on. This boy, continued Tom. looking curiously at his companion. was just about nineteen, an come here from nobody knows where— further South they thought— to help clear this section of bushwhackin ' Yankees. He got together several plucky fellows to help him and had his headquarters near the top oi ' the P ' int. ' They d make tlie most darin ' raids down into Happy X ' alley. an ' soon grew to be the terror of all law-breakiii ' Yankees an ' the hero of the few remainin ' Confederate faniihes. Everybody knew him and hked him ; even his enemies coulihi ' t help listenin ' when he played his fiddle. He was a povverfnl fiddler ; they say rats would come out to listen when he would play, an ' that he ' d charm the rattle-snakes when they ' d crawl into camp. There was a sight of these rattlers, too, for one side of ' Ole Elton ' was nearly impossible to climb, an ' in them days there was a big den of the hissin ' things high up on that side. This was one of Rob ' s biggest protec- tions, for any part of the ' P ' int ' was hard enough to get up, and nobody would even try this one. In his valley visits Rob mostly put up with the Grayson family, an ' him an ' purty little Lottie Grayson finally made it up to git married when the war was over. C)ne mornin ' a good-sized troop of Yankees rode up swearin ' they d take the young Cap ' n dead or alive. Now Rob an ' his whole camp was asleep, bavin ' been out on a raid all night, and as the Yankees put guards around the part of the ' P ' int ' that they thought he could escape by, nobody could git up there to warn him. The Yankees was laughin ' an ' talkin ' an ' takin ' things easy and goin ' it slow, so ' s they could be shore an ' git the whole party. The Graysons was purty nigh crazy, but Lottie didn ' t say a word — just got paler and paler. By an ' by they missed her, but just thought she ' d gone off by herself on account of her sweetheart. But towards three o ' clock, when they was gettin ' uneasy about her, here come all of Rob ' s men a-marchin ' side by side with the Yankees. They was carryin two bodies — Lottie ' s and Rob ' s. Rob ' s lieu- tenant, Lem Di.xon, told the story this way : ■ All of us had laid down to sleep, an ' bein ' tired out, we posted jist one sen- tinel, who fell asleep purty nigh as soon ' s the rest of us did. The Cap ' n was layin ' near me an ' I noticed he didn ' t sleep. After a while he got up real easy so ' s not to wake the men, got his fiddle and went off towards the Rattler ' s Ledge. Somehow I couldn ' t rest after that, so I got up too, an ' started up there. Before I got in sight I could hear his fiddle, an ' makin ' a sharp turn I saw a sight I ' !1 never forget. ' The Cap ' n was sittin ' on a rock playin ' some sort of a soft chune with half a dozen snakes, standin ' nearly straight, a-movin ' slow-like before him, sorter keepin ' time to the music, an ' jist behind him was as ugly a bushwhacker as ever drawed breath, takin ' aim at him with a Winchester. ' I felt for my pistols and remembered that my belt had come loose as I got up, an ' was layin ' peaceably on the ground in the camp. How I could a-been sich a fool as to come off ' thout them or my rifle one I dunno. I had to do some- 49 tliin ' , so not risUin ' sli])pin ' up on liim. I tuk one long jump an ' knocked np his arm jist as the gun went off. The Cap ' n sprung to his feet like lightnin ' , sich a sound a-comin ' from his throat as I never heerd before. Me an ' tother feller had clinched, l)ut we caught a glimpse of sumthin ' that made us drop one another like firecoals. Lottie Grayson was a-layin ' on her face among them hissin ' , mad snakes jist where she fell when the busliwhacker ' s bullet hit her through the heart. Kneelin ' by her wuz her sweetheart, talkin ' to her in sich a pitiful way that it nearly kilt me, an the bush- whacker too, fer that matter. ■ L!y an ' by he seed he couldn ' t do anything to bring her back to life an ' he stopped talkin ' — jist knelt there lookin ' at her. Then all at oncet, ' fore we knowed what he was doin ' , he went straight to the rattlers ' den an ' jammed in his bare arm. Me an ' the bushwhacker both grabbed him ez soon ez we could, but it wviz too late. A dozen er more big uns wuz hung right into the meat, an ' we had to break their backs to git ' em loose. He looked at us an ' sorter smiled. ' ■ It ' s all right, boys ' he said. ' I couldn ' t stay here an ' her gone. ' Then he leaned over an ' kissed her still, white face, almos fallin ' in doin ' it, an ' in spite of all the whiskey we could give him he died in lessen no time. Us folks ' 11 put off our fight till another time, ' said a burly bushwhacker in rusty blue. ' Whar d ' ye think the young cap ' n ' ud like to be buried? ' They buried ' m over yonder under a big spruce, continued Tom, an ' — but here the Colonel ' s broken voice interrupted him. I think you ' ve told me the story of my twin brother, Tom. This is the first news we ' ve had from him since ' 64, and we tliought he must have been killed on some great field and burieil widiout recognition. Show me the place where he sleeps. And Tom, looking into the tear-dimmed eves, saw that even forty years could not triumph over such love as this, like even to that which David and Jonathan bore one towards the other. N. R.

I02D YEAR Salem Academy and College has. during the one hundred years of its history, continually added to the comfort of its buildings, and the beauty of its grounds. Experie-hce has enabled the School to carefully test its methods, and in this respect it offers special advantages. The devotion to the cause of education which the Church has always shown from the times of its great (Educator. Bishop John Amos Comenius. and. through the four centuries of the Church ' s history, is found to exist in the Salem Academy and College at the present day, and parents who committheir children to the care of the School are always well pleased with the results. The peculiar home-life of the School, the personal interest in each individual pupil, the fine moral and religious spirit which surrounds the pupils, the splendid climate — these are some of the influences which bring pupils from far and near, and which have gained for the School the confidence and trust of every section and creed. In addition to the general advantages enumerated above, there are certain special features seldom found in schools. The domestic arrangements are so nearly akin to those of a well-regulated home, that pupils who are deprived of parental care may find the blessing of a true home within Salem Acad- emv and College, even very young girls. The particularly fine climate is drawing many pupils from Northern States, and as the household arrangements have been improved and modernized, the table fare given special attention, and the cur- riculum strengthened, the School has been drawing from a widening field of patronage. As the School is now arranged it is possible for a pupil not only to secure a good collegiate edu- cation, but in addition to this the advantages in Music are unusually fine, including vocal as well as piano, organ and other instruments. It is impossible in a brief sketch to describe all the various special schools which have grown and developed around the main Collegiate Department. There is the Art Department, with its work in oil and water colors its China Painting, its Drawing, and the various lines ■ of Fancy Work. There is the Domestic Science Department, where Cooking is taught in the most ap- proved methods. We note also the Commercial Department, where bookkeepers and shorthand writ- ers are prepared. Nor should we overlook the Elocution Department, and the Linguistic Department, each of which are separate Schools, with stronglv developed lines, and the Lessons in the care of the Sick. Those who are interested in examining into the work of the School at the present time should send to the School-oflSce for the official Catalogue, of last year, a copy of which will be sent on appli- cation. In this Catalogue the work of the School is described in detail, ADDRESS REV. J. H. CLEWELL, Ph. D., Principal, Winston-Salem, N. C.
