O all who are interested in the work of our society, to all who will as- sist in maintaining and increasing her honor, to those loyal members whose efforts have elevated her to her present high standard and to those who will be enrolled under her banner and her glo- rious motto Exce1sior in the futureg this volume is most respectfully dedi- cated. ' 1 v , . 4 1 Introduction. N presenting the twenty-third edition of the PHILO Ricvmw to its patrons, the class of ,QQ acknowledge, with gratitude, the encourage- ment and support their enterprise has received and the willing assistance rendered in enabling them to surmount the many unforseen obstacles which are met in the production of such a work. As the present will soon belong to the past, the records contained in this volume will be more highly treasured as the years go by. Nothing in this REVIEW has been said with any feeling of animosity on the part of the staff. We have laid down our pens with the conscientious satisfaction that every effort has been directed towards the reputable and successful pro- duction of a work which should reflect honor upon the institution it repre- sents, and should be, above all, a lasting credit to the class claiming it as the result of the long hours assiduously consumed in its completion. So this is our REVIEW, if you like it, well and good, If not, we've done the best we could. EDITOR-IN-CHIEF. 3 . IA Smallpox Scare. - I- fig -. is YD C V' T was Saturday night. Feb. 4, 1899. The majority uf lg of the students of Thornhill college had turned in for the night and were fast asleep, for Saturday Ei ' jlfjv was almost ready to merge into Sunday. A few ' 332' -H 151023 li hts still burned here and there throu h tl ' g. . , . g te I building, showing that the night hawks and the I ' -92 X'-' grinds were yet awake. The College Glee Club i had just come in on the train from a town some miles away where they had given a concert. A half dozen or more of the musicians had dropped into Jackson's room for a few mihutes chat before going to their own rooms. . Suddenly there came to their ears, the words: Her name is Sally I And she lives in our alley. sung in a high-pitched voice, that was anything but melodious. The singer was evidently some belated minstrel who was now climbing the hill upon which Thornhill College stands. Who tl1e dickens is that? exclaimed Martin. You greeny, its easy to tell you're a 'Fresh'. No fellow who's been here long enough to be seasoned will ever mistake Taffy Sparrow's warb- lings. By this time the individual in question was 11earing the doors of the college. A window on the fourth floor was opened and the head of Barker, a junior, appeared. Say, Sparrow, can't you come in here like a white man. What,s started the wheels in your gramapl1one? retorted Sparrow. Well, I thought you might exercise a little decency for once, seeing tl1at tl1ere's a sick man up here. I Say d'you take me for a Freshman ? No, really there's a sick fellow up here. Wl1oisit? ' Do11't know. All I know is that, Curtis, Howard, and some other .1 ' ff. V 'fn' 4 irllfr, ministerials were down the railroad for a walk after supper. They stumbled over a sick hobo down there. and as they were afraid he'd freeze to death if they left him, they brought him up here, put him into that vacant dormy next yours, and sent for a doctor. Old Doc. Flasher has been out and now he's over talking with old Pally about the case. What the deuce did Curt bring the bum in for? I don't want a sick hobo near my dormy. What's ailing him anyhow, exclaimed the now angry Sparrow. ' Barker lowered his voice and replied. Why Doc. Flasher told the fellows to stay away from the room and keep mum about it, for the hobo had a bad case of smallpox. h ' Sparrow said some things that are unprintable when he heard this, but Barker only replied, Well you won't make it any better by swearing about it. Come up here, the fellows are going to hold an indignation meeting. Sparrow started toward the main entrance. Barker sprang away from the window, ran out of his room to Jacksons exclaiming, Say, fellows, I worked it on Sparrow, that there's a sick- We heard what you told him. We're with you, replied one of the party. Then youngsters, scatter, nab all the fellows you can, put them on to it, and one of you keep Sparrow entertained on third while I get the sick bum ready in that vacant dormy. The boys did as desired, while Barker dashed into one of the dorm- itories where his chum, Watson, lay fast asleep. Without delay he grab- bed the sleeper in his arms, giving him a shake. Watson opened his eyes in amazement. Say, Watsy, dearest, you've got to play sick hobo for Sparrow's entertainment in the dormy next his. You 've got'smallpox--got it bad. You're ravin' in delirium, callin' for whiskey you know? It tookrather more than a minute to explain matters to the satisfaction of Watson and then he entered the vacant dormitory, threw himself upon the cot and began to groan and talk incoherently. Capital, exclaimed his churn, give us a good blast when you hear Sparrow in the hall. One of the boys had met Sparrow on the third floor and engaged him in conversation. A number had been aroused and let into the secret, and all were venting their well simulated indignation upon Palgrave, the reg- istrar, and upon Curtis and Howard for bringing the tramp into the building. Sparrow accompanied by seven or eight others now came up to the fourth floor,-and sure enough from the dormitory next Sparrow's there came moans and incoherent mutterings. . , ,- . . , ..., . - 'f We 'sz 1 ' 5 45295, . . ,, . , t-iiv 'i-rl. . W-. i - fu. + 'K' Ji Go in Sparrow and see the poor fellow. You're a medical. Maybe you can help him, said Jackson. Sparrow declined emphatically. Fellows, come to my room and we'll hold a meeting to decide what course to adopt, said Jackson. About fifteen boys were soon in the room. Barker was elected chair- man. Speeches were made denouncing the college authorities, especially Palgrave, for permitting a case of smallpox to be brought into the build- ing. One of the boys suggested that a committee be appointed to wait upon Palgrave at once and ascertain how he proposed protecting the stu- dents. This could be done at once as Dr. Flasher was still at Palgrave's house at the edge of the campus, consulting with the registrar. jackson and Herman were designated a committee to perform this duty. They went innnediately and in the course of ten minutes returned to report that tl1e registrar had insulted them, had told them to mind their own business, had suggested that he could run the institution without help or advice from them. When this report was submitted Sparrow's wrath was aroused, he sprang up and said: I say fellows, I don't propose to have a registrar or anybody else walk over me. Here's old Palgrave allowed a measly old, hobo to be brought into the college. The bun1's got smallpox and the lives of all the fellows are endangered. When we send a committee to consult Pally, he gets hot and insults us. I for one favor taking such ac- tion as will show old Pally and the faculty of this institution that they can't run us like a kintergarden. Shouts of approval greeted this speech, and Barker gravely said, The best way to manifest our disapproval, is for us all to leave this old place at the earliest opportunity. I intend to begin packing my trunks at once and I shall leave on the iirst morning train, even if it is Sunday. This statement met a ready assent from a number of others, who hur- ried to their rooms and made show of packing trunks. Sparrow turned toward his own room, but as he reached the door there came the sound of the sick tran1p's voice calling piteously for whiskey. With a shudder the junior turned from his room and Walked down to Barker's room. Say, Barker, it's fifteen miles out to my home, and the roads are in awful shape, but ifl could find a darkey to drive the team back, I'll be hanged if I wouldn't hire one at the livery and drive out to my home yet before morning. I'd show the old shooting match here what I think of its policy in organizing a tramp hospital. Barker sprang up, First rate, old fellow. You've got the true spirit of American Independence. I'll help you all I can. We'll go with you to ring up old Barkis and get one of his best teams. We'll rouse up old jim Kasson and get one of his kids to go with you. Give the kid a half dollar and he'll jump at the chance. The news soon spread that Sparrow was going to leave, and he was surrounded with a crowd of seemingly admiring friends. who congratula- ted him upon his spirit. By to-morrow evening the building will be emptied, except for old Pally and the hobo. Imagine the way old Pally will growl, exclaimed jackson. Barker and Sparrow, with two or three others hurried forth. Black jim Kasson was aroused and one of his boys hired. The hostler at the livery stable of Barkis 8z Co.'s finally appeared and a horse and buggy were secured. Good-byes were said and Sparrow with his small dusky companion began their long drive. - The clock was striking three when Barker and his comrades re-entered the college. Among the number awaiting them was Watson., Barker rushed to him and throwing his arms around him, exclaimed, Oh my dear hobo! what a quick recovery! almost miraculous. Rejoice, fellows, the smallpox is a thing of the past and Sparrow has gone to his home- to his home. Rejoice, fellow citizens and patriots of Thornhill, and Barker and Watson executed a war dance. The next morning the affair was noised about the town and everybody was laughing at the practical joke, but reports began to be noised abroad from the country regions that smallpox had broken out in the town and college. In some way even Sparrow learned by Monday that he had been tricked. A 'few days later he returned to college, a very quiet and modest young man. But alas for his hope that he would live the joke down: Winfield Hancock Sparrow exists only in the catalogue. To the college community he is only Smallpox and The Hobo.

V if lbw 4 MAN once wandered out far, far from the busy streets of gist lf' a city, away oil' into a valley. He was sad-so sad. I , f His heart was bitter toward his lot. He felt alone. Qgiltfv, i . Back in the scenes he had left the busy throng went on , buying and Selling, loving and hating. They felt his f -JRE absence no more than the falling snowflakes, on a dis- mal stormy night at sea, miss the companions that slip down into the black water. But the valley. The path he followed led down the moun- tain side into its somberest shades. The bushes and trees thickly fringed the path. The wind soughed through the pines and the sad cadence lent itself to his mood. As he walked along, the moss beneath his feet dead- ened his footfalls and nothing seemed able to break in upon his musings. He saw the life he had left, those dismal attempts, those heart-breaking failures. He reviewed in his mind the times he had failed, tl1e times he had with gritted teeth and tense muscles driven himself back to those un- successful tasks. And now, trial after trial had passed, and failure after failure. I won't go back to it, he thought, I'll make for myself an- other sphere of labor. He strode on through the dark recess of the forest, where the rhododendrons brushed his face with their harsh, shining leaves. He saw their bent and twisted stems and their snake-like roots. Up from the moss at his feet, rose a cluster of delicate Indian Pipes. He stooped and plucked one of the fairy flowers and stood regarding it. But alas ! soon the pretty flower blackened and with a sigh, he cast it from him and wandered on. It was typical, he thought of his blackened hopes, so bright at one time. Soon there fell on his ear the sound of running water and as he advanced the weird murmur increased in volume. He stopped on the bank and gazed on the swift-flowing stream. It was a small moun- tain rivulet: its clear, limpid waters did not conceal the pebbles and leaves that strewed its bed, and the small fishes seemed suspended inbsome glassy medium. Here the little stream made its foaming way between a number of boulders and just below was a deep pool. Above the stream the boughs of the trees interlaced and at the pool a huge hemlock, with s 9 its dense foliage made a perpetual twilight. His limbs were wearied and he sat down on the edge of the pool to rest. Through the boulders the water bubbled and foamed. The rhytlnnical rise and fall in its song was very soothing to his troubled heart. The brook seemed to croon some lnlling, soothing' strain, just as when a child, his tender feelings wounded by some cruel blow, mother had gathered him to her breast and soothed and quieted his grief. Far off in tl1e forest at his right he heard the long drawn note of the cicada and across the patch of blue sky which the low- hanging boughs of the spruce and the spreading limbs of the alders on the opposite bank did not close up he saw, with outstretched, motionless wings. a buzzard soar. He sat and gazed. The green lichens on the rocks around him seemed to regard him with questioning stare, while the music of the brook seemed to repeat over and over again a cadence which sounded familiar to him. As he mused, the rise and fall of the rivulet seemed to be moulded into words by his own ever active imagination. just as when riding in a train as a child he had heard a series of words re- peated over and over again, their meaning dependent upon his mood. He heard the rivulet say, You've failed in your work ! you've failed in your work! Over and over the cadence repeated it. Over and over the words seemed to co111e to him. He shifted his position uneasily, but the words kept echoing in his ears, You've failed in your work ! You've failed in your work ! I know I have, he cried impatiently, but what can I do ? If you'1l watch, you'1l see ! The words came clearly to him. He started up and stared around him. The wind sighed gently through the spruce boughs. Out across the blue patch ot sky floated a white cloud. The stream murmured on but it gave no words to him. Down in the glassy water the trout hung motionless. The foam flakes still eddied around the pool. The azalia bushes, farther down, stood decked in their pink dresses. But no face looked out from their delicate flowers. With the thought, What a thing is imagination? he turned and traced his way along the stream. He walked for some time and grad- ually his feelings became more composed. The trouble smoothed out of his brow. He began to look around l1im with watchful eyes. What a dainty little flower! He stooped to examine it and as he did so he saw in the ground over which he had just stepped, a peculiar movement. He watched and up flew a little spurt of sand, then two black pincers ap- peared and after a little struggle tl1e entire ant-lion was visible. He sat down to see what the little fellow was going to do. The circular trap was in ruins: his chance of catching his prey, gone. The heavy step of this mountain ofa man had ruined his all. Nothing was left him save his io l strength and his instinct and, true to tl1e latter, he at once set about a new hole. It was a slow task. His pincers were a useless encumbrance but with quick, decisive blows from his feet he dug up and pushed aside the sand. Soon he had made it the size of an acorn bowl and slipping down into it he began to conceal himself at the bottom. He had scarcely covered half his body when down toppled the bank in ruins, covering him under the debris, and destroying the result of all his former patient toil. But he set to work again and this time was more successful and after a time nothing was seen save the circular hole and the black pincers protruding from the bottom. The trap was set. Soon an unwary ant, traveling along, approached too near this innocent-looking depression and slipped over the edge. Quick as thought, spurt after spurt of sand came upon the intended victim, coming down around him in showers. Bewildered, he turned around and began to struggle toward the top again. It was hard work. The sand falling on him was heavy, half stunning him with its force. But after quite a struggle he escaped. But alas for the trap of the ant-lion! Half filled with sand, the edge no longer circular, it stood again-ruined. The poor ant-lion extricated himself from the wreck of his once so beautiful and so symmetrical dwelling and seemed to gaze at it for awhile helplessly. But not for long. With undiminished energy he again set to work and soon again the trap might be seen, an inverted cone of perfect form. Our watcher helped him this time, for catching the next ant that came strag- gling his way, he drove him to the edge of the trap and watched as volley after volley of sand was hurled upon him. This time the patient worker was rewarded. Our watcher arose and walked away. He' thought of the patient little toiler, of his disappointing failures and then reflected that, unlike a man to him there came no consciousness of duty done. no sooth- ing influence of sympathizing friends, but all was instinct. , He strode along still musing. The stream began to quicken its pace, to dash along like a frightened deer. Its murmur and babble gradually changed intoa roar and soon deep-toned and full, it fell upon his ear. He gazed about. He was nearing a gorge down which the stream plunged by a series of falls and rapids, to recontinue its babbling course some dis- tance below. He stood at the summit of the fall and looked down into the gorge. Away down, a mile or more it widened out into another val- ley running directly across the course of the stream. Across the large valley he could see the wheatfields shining bright and yellow in the sun- light. The mountains which closed in the larger valley seemed blue and far away. The gorge was very rough and rugged. Stnnted pines and , ...U F rock-oaks with gnarled and twisted limbs jutted up among the boulders. Far down he could see the course of the stream, showing silvery white, here and there where the alders and willows did not hide it completely. At his right the enclosing mountain wall looked parched and bare. The small chestnuts and oaks could not conceal the gray and brown of the rocks, which precipitately fell away to the bottom of the gorge. He descended to where a j utting ledge of the time-worn rock made a fall of some four feet for the noisy stream. It was the greatest direct fall which tl1e stream made in its troubled course. He seated him- self below the ledge where the beautiful bow which the sunlight made in the rising mist could be clearly seen. How it gleamed and quivered ! The broad bands of the glorious colors came out distinctly, and when a passing cloud for a moment obscured the sun, the mist looked so ghastly white that our watcher instinctively saw there hanging the crape which had hung before the door when his little sister, so long ago, had died! But the bow came back again and he sat, still watching the eddying swirl of the foam Hakes, his whole soul filled witl1 the roar of the waters. just above the fall was a deep basin, where the water in its gliding flow seemed to forget the rapids and falls around it. As he sat, his gaze was suddenly attracted by the form of a fish which had sprung from the water below. It was a gamey trout, evidently attempting to spring from the rapids be- low to the pool above. But his leap was short and back he fell. As he struck the water he was carried down some distance, but he turned about and'our watcher saw him struggling hard against the current, then gath- ering force, he again leaped from the water, his tapering form bent into a bow in his effort. But back again he fell. Time after time he tried, and time after time he fell back. Once he struck the edge of the fall but before he could gather his strength to dart into the safe water beyond, the currenthad whirled l1im over tl1e brink and down to his starting point. After several trials he gave it up. So our watcher thought. At least for some time he stayed in an eddy just out of the reach of the force of the cur- rent, his gills opening and shutting in rapid motion. But back he came to the self-imposed task and sprang again. And in the end, after many trials he succeeded and our watcher saw him dart into the smooth waters of the basin. The stream roared on, the sun still shone, and the graceful limbs of tl1e great spruce which stood a short distance below him swayed to and fro in the gentle breeze. ' He rose to his feet with tense muscles: surely the lesson was plain. With great strides he was off, down the gorge for the valley below. Was he a man with brain and brawn to be less heroic in his trials than the 12 1 little teachers he had been watching? No! he would try again and again, and yet again, and if he must pass his life in unrewarded attempts, yet would he try. ' 'I'll die fighting, he said through clenched teeth as with mighty strides he rushed along. The petals of the azalia in his path fell in pink show- ers as he passed. In quick bounds, a frightened rabbit bobbed from be- fore his feet. A mother pheasant ran dragging her wing, but though she looked so helpless he did not stop to find her nest of young. Down be- side the path he saw a green carpet of arbutus. The leaves looked fresh and bright but he trampled upon them with never a thought of the waxy gems that so short a time before had nestled in their midst. And now he nears a clearing. The cow-bells tinkle clearly in the air. vt ik 'K But let us not follow him back to the dwellings of men. Let us sit down again beside the streamg perchance it may tell us something too. just over there a great tree has been overthrown. Its matted roots, the hard clay and rocks still clinging tightly to them, stand a barrier to the mov- ing water. Upon the roots the water dashes. Tl1e .spray flies and the current swirls, but aroundthe edge it slips and still glides on. And is it stopped by the matted roots? No,-no, indeed. Nor rugged rocks, nor heavy trunks of fallen trees. nor dams of men. nor wheels of mills. nor walls of cities can avail to tur11 our little stream from its course to the ocean. We sit and watch the spray. It may not talk to us, but only to the few. A loose root waves back and forth under the varying pressure of the stream's flow. Back and forth, back and forth, and the water strikes it now here, now there, now here, now there. The little hepaticas with their three-lobed leaves stand motionless on the op'- posite bank and though the stream says nothing to us in words, yet it gives us our lesson too as its clear waters strike the roots, but with no stop, still glide around and babble on. -M.

Yes, it was back' in '93, But I think of it again, And wonder after six, long years, Have things changed much since t Has Dr. Eckels' hair turned gray, And is he 'growing old, And must he from the rostrum, now The wicked students, scold ? Does he Psychology dictate, Or lecture on The Brain, And to the inattentive ones, Keep lecturing in vain ? Is he yet kind to honest folks, As in old '93, And do you think he would be glad To see us,-you and n1e ? The others of the Faculty, Just now I most forget 5 I have been told that some are gone, But some are lingering yet,- They say that Dr. Barton's voice, Resounds within those walls, True to o1d'C. V.

Those who loved Philo best, And others who The Otiice loved l?l Are they gone with the rest ? In those days back in '93, We were such good old friends,-- I wonder if there is, in life, A place where friendship ends ? I wonder if one can forget, And start life all anew, And will time screen in silent years, The friends we loved most true. The bells that summoned us to prayers. In C. V. S. N.

Yes, it was back in '93, I'rn dreaming now as then, And it may be some will disdain, The candor of my pen 3 But seems to me the whole of life, Is but :L dream, twice told, And some will welcome in the new, And some cling to the old. -HA'r'r1E SPANGLER SHm.I.v. ,,,,. K ll. W- C. Zi. N the thirteenth chapter of Paul, the Apostle's letter to the Cor- inthians, he writes this-And now abideth faith, hope, and love: these three but the greatest of these is love. In years to come when we may recall the Young Womanls Christian As- sociation ofthe Cumberland Valley State Normal School, we shall hold in memory the existence of this noblest of virtues- Love. The Association during the year eighteen hundred and ninety-nine may well have had for its motto Love and felt that we were trying to live up to it. Indeed it seemed as though tl1at was our motto, for, in the work as a band of girls it seemed to pervade the atmosphere that Love for God was one of the best, one of the highest qualities that any one girl could wish to possess. When we love God, we keep his commandments. When we love God, we are interested in the welfare of our associates. We feel confident that this love for God has been with us from the many little spiritual feasts we have had during the year. Almost every girl in the school is a member of the Association, if not active they are associate members, and they are so willing to take their part in tl1e work. These are good stout chords that vibrate every time they are called upon to work for Christ in the services, which are held Sunday evenings in the large chapel, immediately after supper. The good we have received from these weekly meetings has proved to be food for the soul. They are so helpful to us in overcoming the trials of the days which intervene. After a week's toil in the classroom we look forward to these meetings with pleasant anticipation. As we cast a retrospective glance in the school record we find a great change in this part of the school life. We find the Young Woman's Christian Association had an early existence, but the workers were not so many as they are to-dayp nor did the students think that the spiritual and religious training was so essential to success as the intellectual training. During our life at the Normal we find a difference, the students seem to have realized the fact that one who is preparing to teach must be well read in not only the sciences, but l1e must also know a great dealwabout the Bible. For what doth it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own soul. Some one has said that we are known by the company we keep. A 'fviifn , Now if we love God, will we not have him for our companion, and will we not become more like him? After all is not the chief aim in life to be good. ' This characteristic of love for God is very necessary for one who wishes to teach. For the influence which the teacher throws around her has a great effect on the formation of the characters of her pupils. It is in our Young Woman's Christian Association that we are strengthened. Early in the fall we had a visit from our State Secretary, Mrs. Lowry, who was an inspiration to us, giving ns many useful hints as to the method of our work, and reviving us spiritually. During the latter part of the winter term she paid us another visit. Saturday evening, March fourth, she met the ladies in the school parlor, where the girls circled around the room in comfortable positions, while Mrs. Lowry talked to them about the State Convention which was l1eld at Pittsburg. Both her visits were profitable ones. The Association did not send delegates to the convention as has been the custom, on account of the distance. In the course of our work we had a series of meetings. We cannot tell how much we enjoyed these gatherings. It was there that we talked with God, asking his blessings upon us and praying for those in our midst who were so anxious to be one with us in Christ. Our efforts were not in vain for we had many happy conversions, and those who went felt stronger for the day's work which was to follow. The Y. W. C. A. gave a reception at the opening of each term. These were given to bring the new girls in touch with the Association work, and were fair examples of the social part of our efforts. May the spirit for Christ's work, which we have received as members and workers of the Y. W. C. A. of this Normal School follow us as we leave the school, and may it go out with us into life to battle with the world. May we always be filled with this love for Christ, so that when we are about to depart from this life we may be able to say: So live that when thy summons comes to join The innumerable caravan that moves To the pale realms of shade, where each shall take His chamber in the silent halls of death, Thou go not like the quarry slave at night, Scourged to his dungeon, but sustained and soothed By an unfaltering trust, approach thy grave Like one who wraps the drapery of his couch About him, and lies down to pleasant dreams. 0 18 q.

' p In these words we have found comfort in our school work as well as in our Christian duties. God is ever willing to fave 'X give unto those who ask in faith. He is also at the gate of mercy ready to open u11to those who seeking for wis- dom and understanding knock. The preceding passage of scripture directs our attention to the change which has taken place in the lives of students of colleges and boarding schools during the last twenty years. The thoughts that for- merly confronted a young man wl1o contemplated taking a course at some institution, and the experiences through which he had to pass upon enter- ing the school until he was thoroughly initiated and became a full mem- ber: of the orders instituted by the members of the school, are known to- day only as stories told us by our fathers. Those who, upon entering school, were laughed and sneered at and left to find their way and take care of themselves as best they could, are to-day greeted with hearty wel- comes and are cared for by those who were at the school before. This change in the lives of students has rebuked many of the vices and evil influences that were once common among the students. Especially is this true of Normal Schools. These changes in the lives of students are largely due to the increased attention paid to moral and religious training. People realize that the man wl1o is most successful in preparing him- self for the faithful discharge of the duties of life is the one who receives moral and religious as well as intellectual and physical training. This is especially true of the young man preparing to teach 5 for it is he wl1o has charge of the child while character is in its formative state, when every chord that is struck in a tender mind vibrates at the throne of God. This being true, it is of tl1e utmost importance that the highest moral principles should be inculcated in the hearts and minds of those who are 19 preparing for the teacher's profession. It has been justly said, that our schools need, at their head, honest men, truthful men, men who respect themselves and their neighbors, men who love to work for the upbuilding of character. If the work of the teacher is of such importance he should enter upon his duties with a harmonious development of all his faculties and with the purest motives that can actuate human conduct. Much has been done to bring about a change, in tl1e lives of students, which tends to raise the morals and character to a higher standard 3 but nothing has been so effectual as the organization of the Young Men's Christian Association. The special aim of the Association in the interest of new students is two fold ': First, to lead Christian young men entering school to become at once intelligent and earnest members of the Associa- tion, and to associate themselves with some regular church in the com- munity : secondly, to lead the young men entering, who are not yet avowed followers of Christ, to join the Association, to become followers of Christ, and to identify themselves with His church. . Thus the Associa- tion endeavors ,to elevate moral and religious character. The Association at this institution has accomplished its aim in many respects. Our success has been no doubt due to the fact that.we did not hope to attain it by chance or by miracles, but by perseverance, by whole hearted service, and by the help of Him in whose cause we are enlisted. During the year our Association joined with the Young Woman's Christian Association in giving two receptions for the benefit of new stu- dents. The first was held on Saturday evening, September lo, 1898. It was a pleasant affair. The success of the entertainment was due to the well laid plans by the chairman and the whole-hearted co-operation of the membe1's of the committees and those who were not committeenien. After the formal reception all assembled in the Chapel, where a short pro- gram of music, recitations and other entertaining features were given. Miss Barnum, our able music instructor, sang The Switzer's Dream of Home, and the enthusiasm with which she was recalled was an evidence of the pleasure she gave to her hearers. Refreshments were served in the dining-room, which was beautifully decorated with flags, flowers, etc. Small tables were beautifully decorated and scattered through the room and the students gathered in groups of fours to enjoy tl1e delicacies served' them. The second reception was held April 8, . 1899, and was equally successful. The Association distributed the Student's Hand-book, compiled by the oliicers, which contains valuable information concerning the school and the town, and serves as a useful guide to new students. - 'L 20 wi W A joint meeting of the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. was held in the large Chapel on the first Sunday of each month. These meetings were well attended and the programs rendered were spirited and edifying. Our regular Sunday evening meetings were as a rule well attended and the music and talks were spirited. The male quartet which was voluntarily organized for tl1e benefit of the Association rendered fine music. A Bible Study Class was organized with Prof. Roth as instructor. The class used the Normal Lessons, by Jesse Lyman Hurlbut, D. D. The Association observed the Week of Prayer by holding special prayer services each evening. These meetings were well attended and a general interest in spiritual work was awakened. The Association was represented by delegates at the District Conven- tion held at Shippensburg. Cumberland county, Pa., December 2-4, 1898. Among the principal participants in the discussions of the convention, were Hon. H. M. Hinkley, Mr. Lewis, Profs. Hoffman and Billet, H. W. Gibson, E. D. Soper and State Secretary S. M. Bard. One ofthe special features of the convention was the College Men's Conference which was held in the Normal School Chapel on Saturday afternoon. The conference was in charge of Secretary Soper and proved to be a pro- litable as well as interesting meeting. Dr. G. M. D. Eckels addressed the conference in words of welcome, and encouraged the young men to' con- tinue in the noble work they have undertaken. May the Young Men's Christian Association prove even more suc- cessful in the future than it has in the past and may it accomplish much good in the direction for which it was established. 21 p V? !.1L I u ,Tum ' Ears -, .. . fg fi qi Riff, ffl? f '4 Pkg? f 1 1191 , ' if I IJ f , v if 9' - X N 'If w S f , . 1 vm. it p ,fn , x 1x t 1 wi, R- iw mi , :Kb 91 in iff grit, .W -f ff .., 'N ht HJ- !

Our genial friend, Dr. 'i I',f , Barton, had made all preparations for departure, but it X seems Providence had arranged things differently. Lo! x i when we arose on the day of our departure, Heaven was 0255 refreshing the earth with a beautiful shower. I l It was not very refreshing however to the students but rather depressing. When the chapel bell rang for our devotional exercises, I. am sure most of us would rather have gone to our rooms and wished that we had never heard ofchestnuts or chestnut excursions. However we trusted to Providence and hoped to see the King of Day shed his beaming rays upon the earth before it would he too late. But alas! we trusted in vain for a long time. 22 It was finally agreed upon that we would not go. But by the persua- sions of the fairer sex our kind teacher said, We will go. For a short time the corridors rang with laughter and noise. It was, What will you wear? When shall we start? These questions were finally satisfactorily answered and -we departed. The invigorating atmosphere put life into every one and it seemed all had gone for pleasure. p Even the tall chestnut trees waved their lofty branches at our coming. It did not take long until all had at least one chestnut, which served as a memento of the occasion. ' The ascent of the rugged mountains was perhaps tl1e most tedious thing we attempted. But we were amply repaid by the delightful view from the observatory. It was there that we beheld nature arrayed in its autumnal tints. The view ofthe landscape is beyond description. The large fields and meadows spread out before us, and in tl1e distance we could see large shocks of corn which called to mind the harvest time. Winding about the mountain was the distant train which made one think of man's great work in that direction. Father Time was not very lenient with us and before we were aware of it, we heard the shrill call of the whistle, a signal for departure. Indeed some of our number barely escaped being left behind. Our journey home was characterized by the same feeling which had prevailed all day. When we arrived in our rooms again, the general cry uprose, Was it not grand? Going into some rooms to-day you can see some gentle reminders of the occasion, and it always makes one feel as though he had at least spent one happy day while at C. V. S. N.- S.

' I as ss- Xi i If ERHAPS no experience in the Land of the Rising Sun is I more interesting to the foreigner than a visit to one of the - native theatres. In the audience he sees Japanese life N and character as it is, and from tl1e play he learns some- thing of the ideal heroes of japanese history and romance. ,I-'diff I had been in Japan only a month when Danjuro. the Edwin Booth of the japanese stage, came to Tokyo to fill an engagement at one of the leading theatres of the city. Of course l took an early opportunity of seeing this Oriental star. Iu- deed, smbzg meant much more to me than hearing, since my knowledge of the japanese language was limited to a few ordinary expressions used in dealing with jinrikisha runners and shop-keepers. Fortunately, a Japanese friend who spoke English quite fluently, offered to accompany me and act as interpreter. Seeing the play is an all-clay affair in Japan. Instead of dropping into the theatre for an hour or two after business hours are over, the easy- going Oriental cooly takes a whole day oil' for his theatre-going. All theatres open about ten o'clock in the morning and close at dark. Two or perhaps three plays may be presented in a day, but seldom more. Every theatre is surrounded by tea-houses and restaurants, which do a thriving business with the patrons of the theatre. Tea, fruit, light re- freshments, and entire dinners are brought into the theatre between the acts and served to the guests as they sit in their places. Not having the patience and endurance of an Oriental, 11or the palate of an Oriental which would enable me to enjoy a japanese dinner, I de- cided that an afternoon of the theatre would be quite enough for me. Accordingly, about two o'clock we alighted from our jinrikishas at the theatre entrance, removed our shoes, and followed a bowing attendant to the box reserved for 'us. All ideas of comfort that the word 'box' had called up in my mind were rudely dispelled when the attendant pushed aside one of the sliding panels of the auditorium wall and ushered us into an empty, carpeted pen little more than three 'feet square. separated from similar adjoining pens by wooden partitions about a foot high. The Q :IX .0 26 entire floor was divided into these 'boxes.' There were no aisles and no seats. The partitions between the boxes were wide enough to serve as walks,-that is, about ten inches,-and as for seats, the Hoor itself is always comfortable enough for a Japanese, while a thin silk cushion is pos- itive luxury. In consideration of the fact that I was an ijin san, or foreign barbarian, and unused to native ways, the attendant produced two small chairs for our use. After the chairs were put into the box, there was barely room for us to get in, though four people manage to sit in Japanese fashion in one of these cribs without crowding. Luckily our box was at the back of the auditorium 9 otherwise we should not have been allowed to have chairs. , The last act of the first play was on the boards when we entered. So, instead of trying to understand what was being said and clone, I spent the time in looking about me. The clecorous order of our own theatres has no counterpart l1e1'e. Men, women, and even children are smoking tiny pipes and cigarettes, some are drinking tea, others are eating with chop- sticks from little lacquer trays or bowls. Everywhere a free and easy air prevails, though there is little talking. The interior of the theatre is en- tirely of wood, unpainted,-for paint has no place in Japanese architect- ure.-unplastered, and with but little decoration. The most aristocratic 'parts of the house are the balcony and the last two rows of boxes on the ground floor. Next to these ranks the pit. Sloping upward from behind the end balcony, and separated from it by a wire screen is the gallery of the gods, known in Japan as the driven-in place, or deaf gallery. Here there are no boxes, and people are 'driven in' and crowded together in the utmost confusion. Behind the deaf gallery is another abode ofthe gods,-a narrow pen, where upon payment of a cent or two, one may stand and peep through iron bars at the stage for the space of one act. The most novel features of Japanese stage arrangements are the 1'e- volving stage and the Flower-Walk. The former is an ingenious con- trivance by means of which the whole stage revolves like a railroad turn- table and presents a change of scene. The Flower-Walk is a raised plat- form about four feet wide, running from the side of the stage down to the large door at the back of the auditorium. Along this walk actors pass to and from the stage, sometimes amid shouts of applause from the audience. During the five hours of our stay two plays were presented. both his- torical tragedies. My companion briefly sketched each story for me be- fore the play began, and supplemented the sketch by a running expla- nation as the play proceeded. These explanations together with the action of the players enabled me to follow the story fairly well. - 27 The japanese drama resembles the Grecian drama in the use of a chorus, and the Gothic drama in the intertwining of a thread of humor with a tragic plot. I found abundant humor in the plays, but the causes of my mirth were not those which provoked tl1e rest of the audience to laughter. My chief sources of amusement were the scene shifters, the choristers, and the stage horse. The scene-shifters are dressed in black, with long black veils falling to tl1eir waists. Stage conventionalities have decreed that these men shall be invisible to the spectators, and hence they move about on the stage during the performance as though they wore the the magic cloak of Jack the Giant Killer. In one scene they carried off a mountain,-a canvas one,-from tl1e middle of the stage in order that a pair of duellists might have more room for their encounter. Still more amusing was the singing of tl1e chorus. They kept up a sort of recita- tive during the greater part of the play. Their music was,-well, it was Oriental, and none but an Oriental could appreciate it. To my ear it was a series of howls, wails, squeaks, cat-calls, and groans. I was convulsed with laughter. My companion regarded me with solemn surprise. Oh, that singing, I exclaimed by way of explanation. Yes, he replied with a grave air, it is very iine. Those who understand it enjoy it very much, For myself, I am not fond of music. I could explain no fur- ther. Probably he still wonders why I laughed. Equally comical were the antics of the stage-horse. A real horse is never used on the Japanese stage. Instead, a framework shaped like the head and body. of a horse, and covered with brown velvet, is carried upon the shoulders of men in brown tights whose bodies are concealed within the frame. The way in which that long-footed, thick-calved steed capered about. the unmistak- ably human iling of its legs, and tl1e lack of harmony in movement be- tween its two pairs of feet, were too ridiculous for words. The fact that the horse was ridden by a dignified general only added to the ludicrous effect. But I had tl1e laugh all to myself. No one else seemed to think it funny. It is not because the Japanese have no sense of humor that they do not laugh at these absurdities. Their sense of the ridiculous is very keen. But, like children at play, they have agreed to pretend that things are really what convenience demands that they should be. Japanese plays differ as greatly from those of the American stage as do the manners and customs of its people from those of Western lands. Loyalty, lilial obedience, and chivalry are the favorite ideas em- bodied in the Japanese drama, for which history and legend for hundreds of years past furnish abundant matter. To tl1e mind of the foreigner the incidents of most Japanese plays seem unnatural and absurd. But he must remember that a nation which has but lately thrown off the bond- age of the feudal system with its fanciful ideas of loyalty and duty, looks with other eyes than his, and sees a fidelity to nature and a nobility of sentiment where he sees only an improbable fancy or a foolish sentimen- tality. Thus the difference between the dramatic art of japan and that of our own land is due to a difference in national temperament and national ideas, and not to a lack of fidelity to nature. The last play which was presented that day ended with the suicide of the hero by ham-lez'rz', the ancient honorable method of self-destruction. The scene was a Buddhist burying-ground with its old, grey, lichen-grown stones and sombre pines. Here, in the early dawn, comes the hero to worship at the tomb of his lord, and to perform the last,-greatest act of devotion to his master. Fanciful as was the ideal of heroism which it in- volved I could not but feel the tragedy of the scene. Never have I seen a more magnificent piece of acting than the deathlstruggle. Here, in- deed. was not national nature but human nature, in its supreme moments the same everywhere, and everywhere appealing to the human heart no matter what its nationality. And so with this dark scene from the old feudal days ended my visit to the Japanese theatre. -SARA A. S1-ENCER. Y .'. ag' it E9 4 I xv 'L V 'I Q J uf D11 ' fi fwxff 39 E B ,L - lwlunfll Dann.

N W ISTORY is not merely a cl1ro111cle of events, and so 111 , ,gf-fu writing the history of the class of '99 we will take up , l-EV' ff Q 11ot the facts of their history, but the causes which V A 51 brought about certain effects. 1 'f' , We will try to treat their history through tne Ayr., ii philosophic medium of cause alld effect. The causes operating in tl1eir case are so nearly analogous to those operating in other classes that we may pass them by as already known, a11d take up the effects C15 of the Normal upon the classg Czj of the class upon the Normalg C35 of tl1e class upon otl1er classes. Tl1e influence of the Norn1al l'lp0ll the class has been enormous: transforming the miniature 'lllllld of the Junior into tl1e mature mind ofthe Senior, giving a foundation of knowledge on the ground on which it is possible to advance and, independently, acquire knowledge without the necessary intervention ofa teacherg and broadening their horizons 111or- ally and n1e11tally and developing their bodies physically. While the infiuence of tl1e class upon the Nor111al is 11ot so great' as that of tl1e Normal upon tl1e class, nevertheless, it is of some conse- quence. When '99 e11tered tl1e Normal she was one of tl1e largest classes intellectually GJ that has ever entered C. V. S. N. S. During the tlllle of her presence at C. V. S. N. S., numerous additions have been madeg son1e because it seemed best that they should be, others because the needs of this class required them. Whenever we con1e to consider the influence of the class of '99 has had upon its sister classes, we have a ditiicult subject to treat. In the case of our predecessor '98 fear was the salient feature of her attitude. Wllell the class of .'oo entered Normal they immediately saw tl1e height attained by '99 5 and ever since with wisdom and tact, have treated her witl1 the reverence becoming her station. Space forbids n1e to give any but the principal effects '99 has had UPOII l1er sister classes. Should any one wish a detailed account it can be 'found in 1ny larger work on this subj ect. BID.. Soon the time will come for us as a class to part but this is only the beginning. We shall be ushered into a school of life where each ' must iight for himself. , When we entered C. V. S. N. S. as juniors we attracted much at- tention and as Seniors we do not deviate from the rnle. We feel that our work as a class has not been in vain but rather an honor to us. A pleasanter duty is nearer-looking backwards. Retro- spect is a longer view. Then from retrospect to prospect. A few days more of life together and now near the close of our course, 'each re-echoes the sentiments of Childe Harold- Still must I go on. ' 1 i ll -1 il Y Z .

It is composed exclusively of persons of a philosophical turn of mindg thu:-1 being inclined to add to the world's store of knowledge Cand other things too numerous to mentionb, each member has set out to solve for himself the old question: Is Marriage a Failure ? Only those having actually entered into that grandest of all Connnonwealths. the State of Matrimony, are eligible to full membershipg but persons who contemplate becoming E9 1 'L,, .1 was .Aw 4' fully eligible in the near future may by a special vote become embryo members. The organization is in a prosperous condition, and its meetings are said to dispel much of the loneliness and homesickness so common out- side its ranks. It has a tough task before it in the cases of lovesickness among the embryo members, but hopes to speedily transform the crazy, fitful flames of this period into the more steady and substantial glow of advanced membership. The editors regret very much their inability to publish the Consti- tution of this society. The better halves remaining at home have the only copies extant, and reserve the sole right to hold and interpret, as well as to make and amend, this document.

I HE author, wlule sitting at his desk upon a midnight dreary, X engaged upon some miscellaneous work and at the same i 7 time allowing his memory to wander amid the scenes and X053 recollections of former pleasant happenings, was uucere- ' N E moniously interrupted by the click of tl1e telegraph in- 'i 12 - strument which he recognized as the call of the operator i of ofiice No. 168. Paying but little attention to the call, he proceeded to write a letter and had written as far as My dear darling: --How I long to be with you to-night, when he was again interrupted by the click of the instrument, Tat-at, tat-atg tat-at, tat, this time giv- ing an indication of impatience on the part of the operator. The answer being a repetition of the call, proved that the operator called was not en- tirely unconscious of his existence. As the conversation was one of personal interest between the operators and being too indolent to manipulate the instruments, they resorted to the Open Air Exchange and engaged in the following conversation: Say is Prof. in? Yes, I suppose so. Say, look, what is our psychology lesson for to-morrow? Association of ideas-physical basis. Yes, I see. Have you anything to masticate? Imagination only can tell when the foregoing dialogue might have come to a conclusion, for they were at that moment interrupted by a vio- lent knocking upon the office door of the central office. Engaged in the usual routine of office drudgery the operators were again interrupted by the voice of 01d joe Neil, who said: Say ! open up. won't you! After a few superfluous adjectives the speaker was ad- mitted and said, Boys, I am in a fix. Well, how is that?,' asked one of the operators. I'm struck, replied Joe. On what? asked the other. Oh! pshaw! I would give five dollars to spend an evening at Mt. Holly during vacation. Think I would miss my dip if I should try? Go it, exclaimed the operators in unison. A At this instant the confidential was terminated by the entrance of the operator of office No. 168, a nice, jolly, sort of a fellow by the name of '42 . Reed, who said, Say, Bo. I'm married, and the girls will not spoon with me any more, and I was discussing the ins and outs of the situa- tion, when in comes another member of the Matrimonial Fraternity by the name of Senseman. He proceeded to discuss the pleasures and diilicul- ties of the hymeneal state, explaining explicitly minor details, and would no doubt have received a vote of approbation but at that moment they were agreeably interrupted by the salutation: Thay, fhellows, get off the walk and give the puth a thance, won't you? It was Uncle Sam Miller. - W 'JN-. , tiff' ixl lu. .4 ,j XM 1 5 fill 3' Rfb .Q f A Y -fy, :2'V l'- 'fl Q ' V t ad -'M ll I 1 V fa lui 4-15- f ' 'xl , I hll Rzgcnlar ormal Course LAURA PEFFER.

The rich and the poor chant it, The high and the low know it, The employer and employees are familiar with its harmony, The politician swells its rich cadence, - While the pulpit and pew join in the chorus. T is policy--simply this and nothing more and the devotees I worshipping at its shrine are numberless as the sands of the sea. ' We all know of the demagogue in politics, the stock- waterer in business, the bribe-bought legislator, and the smooth talking liar behind the counter, who is all things to all men. These have cast principle overboard and worship at the shrine of policy. Most of them are rogues, a menace to society, and a disgrace to mankind. Policy is never to be a motive, but it is the antipode of right which is to sit alone on the throne. Policy may win for a day, but man's life reaches out into the eternities and up to God. The time surely comes sooner or later when policy nmst sew fig leaves together to cover its shame. We all know how men, especially the employees, are induced by policy to vote for their employer, who is in nearly all cases a corrupt politician seeking office and glory by strategy. How wise for those men to follow the advice of Shakespeare :- V To thine own self be true, And it must follow as the night the day, Thou cans't not then be false to any man. Can he not be called a true hero who recently in Armenia sacrificed his life rather than give up the worship of the god professed. It is the policy to do so, it is the menace for good. The politician says, votes elect, votes I must have, and votes he does get. The pulpit is silent on the evil of the so-called z'rqiueu!z'a! of his fiock. T52 Another popular psalm everywhere sung in delirious ectasy is :-- Dlmes and dollars: dollars and dimes ! Ye are the ladder by which man climbs O'er his fellows. Musical chimes. Dimes and dollars 3 dollars and dimes ! Money makes money these be the times, To double and triple the dollars and dimes. What will mankind not do for the almighty dollar? The child not knowing the intrinsic value of money, claps its tiny hands for joy upon the receipt of even a penny. Youth feels a glowlof importance permeating his whole being when a dime or even a nickel is in his possession. Money covers a multitude of sins in the estimation of womanhood, as she wades right in, to marry a man who has some tin. A dollar in the pocket of a young man is to him asource of happiness. Why does the middle-aged man appear in the arena of the stock ex- change? Why does he so eagerly watch the rise and fall in wheatand oil ? That he may buy or sell at a financial advantage. The aged sire even, whose steps are tottering, sight affected, but a step between him and the grave, has for his psalm : Relentless time, wait a little longer, My heart craves for another million. The acquisition of riches is a powerful motive. Wealth is almost esteemed a virtue and poverty a crime. Yes the rich are deemed happy and the poor miserable. Hence the all-impelling motive is for gain. Men strive to gain it rather from policy than principle. Often in life the' poor are simply dragged along by the ricl1. The love of money is the cause of all evil. Many of the crimes of to-day are caused by striving for riches which could only be gotten by fraudulent means. 53 Afblefic Fkssociafcion. rl'621Sl1l'EY Officers. President, . . J.

The SeaSon'S Record. J X HE football season at C. V. S. N. S. can hardlybbe fi 2. considered an unqualified success. At the opening of the term there were but one or two men in the t 'C' entire school who had ever played before. For a 2 i j? while it looked as though no effort would be made to , S organize a team, but finally a call was made and some m,n ' ' ' ofthe boys started to practice. There was some good M materiailin-the school and with an earlier start and hard practice a team might have been developed to uphold the former foot- ball honor of the school, but considering the disadvantages under which the team labored, their work was at least creditable. The first game of the season should have been played with Chambers- burg Academy, but for some reason their courage forsook them at the last minute and they canceled the game. This was a great loss to the team as the prarlice which Chambersburg usually gives our team would have been of great benefit. On Saturday, Oct. 22, the first game was played on' the home grounds with the Dickinson Preparatory School. The game was well played and interesting. Neither side was able to score in the first half but during the second our team pushed them rapidly down the field and scored a touchdown in a short time. The goal was missed. During the remainder of the game the ball was kept in our opponents' ter- ritory and only once was our goal threatened, when by a timely tackle the runner was downed by Singmaster with but a sn1al1 gain. The game ended 5-0 in favor of Normal. The same day our second team played a game at Scotland with the Industrial School team, in which they were victorious, 6-5. The next game was played at Chambersburg against the so-called Academy team. Our boys played with four substitutes while Chambers- burg was strengthened by a referee who did all in his power for them. In the first half after several long runs by Gettel and Heisey, Rice made a touchdown on a clever fake. No goal. In the second half tl1e referee began to take active part and gave Chambersburg the advantage of many ll ..- 'Ku undeserved decisions. Against this handicap, our boys could do nothing, and the final score was,-Chambersburg II, Normal 5. On Saturday, Oct. 3ISt, our second team played a game with Cham- bersburg High School, in which they were defeated by a score of I5-o. The last game of tl1e season was played at Carlisle against the Dickinson Preparatory School. The Normal team had had no practice for a week and many of the players were out of condition. During the first half the ball was kept in close proximity to Dickinson's goal but a touchdown was prevented by a misunderstanding ofthe signals. In the second half our lack of practice and poor condition told against us and some of our boys were too weak to play well. Finally, after a hard struggle, Dickin- son made a touchdown but failed to kick the goal. During the remainder of the game the ball was kept near the middle ofthe field and the game ended 5-o in favor of Dickinson. Chambersburg should have played a return game on Nov. I2, but again they lacked courage to play us under fair ollicials and failed to put in an appearance. ff i all wiv' 4 . ' ' Ai zsslrih .. li ,' 1'6 - K.

S0 far as I am personally concerned it wouldn't make any difference, but in matters of this kind it is well to defer to the acknowledged authorities. But how about poetic license?

L 'M if -N ' ' ' to attract our attention, and first of all, ourselves. Accuse us of egotism if you will, but we will not change this statement. A fact of history cannot be erased, and this is one which we shall not take pains to conceal. However, before we were here long, it became ap- parent that there was a second party who seemed particularly interested in us, and that especially in our strength and success. They at once wanted to give us Commazzdmenis to follow. It was indeed pleasing to find some light on the subject, although we are inclined to think that it was rather poor generalship on the part of the Seniors, or we should have received our Commandments before we were expected to obey them. We know that we are still in the shell, and for tl1at reason we shall not chirrup very loudly. Indeed we would not have chirruped at all had it not been that the older chicks have asked us to give forth a few vigorous chirps. Like The Toad in the Well our knowledge of the great world be- yond us is very limited. We shall therefore try to keep within our narrow walls. We feel that as a class our history is not long. With one mighty chirk we close'our work. Though in the shell, we look forward with pleasure to the training that is to develop us into full fledged chicks. 62 COMMITTEE OF CLASS OF 1900 D. M.

In her quota was found to be the old state organization known as the Governor's Troop of Harrisburg. The State's men assembled April 28, 1898, at Mt. Gretna to be mus- tered into the United States Service. Everything progressed rapidly, when at last the Pennsylvania cavalry found themselves to be the only troops left at Camp Hastings at the end of June. All the infantry and artillery had been sent to do duty, or to the front. Camp Hastings being a delightful place, we seemed very well con- tented drilling twice a day in the hot sun. After the Manila and Cuba expeditions were formed, our minds were turned toward Porto Rico, but no one knew whether we should see it or not. - July 7, we received the welcome news to move to Camp Alger. We sacrificed many pleasures by moving to this camp, but the cry was On to Porto Rico? Our duties of orderly duty, drills and messenger service were very hard, there being only five troops of cavalry at this camp among about 3o,ooo men. Many of our horses were very wild and vicious. Much difficulty was experienced in breaking them. The advice given us, if a horse at- tempted to get away with us, was Remember the mane. ' All eager for the expedition, the news break camp again resounded in our ears, and to proceed to Newport News, Va., on July 27, to embark for Porto Rico. Owing to the lack of transports we were obliged to lie in the hot sun several days at Newport News. We now began to realize the hardships of a so1dier's life,--eating hardtack and bacon, sleeping on the ground with a canopy of stars above us, so often we thought of our homes. ' 67-'A At last everything was readyg so Friday evening at six o'clock, Aug, 5, the U. S. S. Manitoba having on board Soo men, rooo horses and mules and 1280 tons of supplies moved down the James River. We were soon out on the wide Atlantic, and the next morning we could see land no more. Our trials now began. The quarters of the men, which were below the horses, the rations, and the salt water, which we often had to drink,- added to our hardships. Much care had to be taken of the horses. One of General Grant's remarks before embarking was: Boys take care of the horses, because horses are' scarce and hard to get, and men are plenty.', The voyage was a very pleasant one, as far as the smoothness of the ocean, but many of the men became sea-sick. Everything being in our favor we saw on the morning of Aug. Io, the tops of Porto Rico's palm trees before us. About noon we came into the port, where we saw many battleships, some of which were in service against Cervera's iieet. There being 110 good harbor at this place, which is called the Port of Ponce, we anchored about one and one-half miles from the shore. The harbor, very open and shallow, though protected somewhat on the east by a spur of land, and slightly on the west by a little island reef, made a gem of beauty by the simple architecture of its little white light-house. No time was lost in getting to land our equipments and horses by means of litters as we were to be in front of San Juan as soon as pos- sible. The city of Ponce having surrendered to the marines no trouble was manifested in landing, also the first expedition had opened up the wav. Experience only can picture to you, our feeling when we landed on Spanish soil. After a brief and almost bloodless campaign, hostilities ceased on Aug. 13, a few days after our arrival. Forces located at differ- ent places on the island began to advance on the enemy, so on Aug. I2 the advance was made. At last the time for a blow had come, and for the first time in our lives many young Americans saw preparation for a battle. The infantry all around armed with Krag'-jorgensens deployed their skir- mishers. The artillery and cavalry were in readiness. While the prepa- rations for a bloody battle were made a most dramatic scene now took place. A signal man came at full speed down the line and handed a message to General Brooke. He read it, turned quickly, and aides and orderlies flew in every direction to generals, colonels, and all in command. It was a message of peace! Not at the eleventh hour but at 1 1.59, for some of the three-inch guns had been loaded and trained and the infantry skirmishers with loaded rifles were only waiting for the bugle call Commence firing. The change from the sharp battle tension of a second before was intense. Slowly the skirmishers came in from the frontg slowly the artillery men 68 repacked their caissons and limbered up their guns: the signal men rolled up their fiags, and the doctors repacked their knives and saws, and the American forces withdrew from the scene. The Spaniards gazed with astonishment. They soon found out the reason and were satisfied. After this armistice was declared, our forced march was withcalled. A camp was at last formed after coming back nearer our supplies which was then about ten miles from the fort. There were still skirmishes among the mountains, so we could not rest, assured that we would not be in any engagements. This lasted nearly a week, then we began to enjoy Porto Rico's beautiful scenery. The first impression one receives of the island from the water, as you enter the harbor is rather disappointing on account of the very high moun- tains. Though the methods of farming are naturally most primitive and lazy, people invariably put off until to-morrow everything which should be done to-day: less than a quarter of the crops now raised by the present method are used for the support of the population. Never was a small country better equipped for sustaining itself inde- pendent of other countries than Porto Rico. There are said to be over 500 varieties of native trees on the island, and in the loftier altitudes ap- ples, pears and other northern fruit might be successfully grown. Every wall and hedge-row is overrun with vines and blossoming creepers, and every spot not devoted to artificial crops is covered with natural fruit- bearing trees or teeming with flowers such as are carefully tended in our Northern conservatories, here springing in wild and odorous profusion. The opinion of most of the volunteer privates who have seen duty in Porto Rico is that tl1e population consists ofa lot of Dagos linked together to see how they can raise prices of every article of merchandise, and to steal everything they can get their hands on. Akindly spirit was the necessary thing to be shown to the natives. They are of a mild disposition, not to be compared with the negro in any respect. It is true they are ignorant and lazy, many of them spending their whole lives in idleness. The natural products of the country af- ford suliicient sustenance without much labor. When they are treated kindly they will do anything for the American soldier. They welcome him whereever he goes, and will try to alleviate his sufferings whenever possible. There is no intention to criticise other organizations, for tl1e men lived in a hot climate, and were homesick and discontented, but there has been shown over and over again a willful malice by a certain type of volunteers, resulting in ordering and cuffing the natives about, as if they 69 1 considered them conquered animals instead of human allies and friends. Those whose actions have been tinged with good intentions toward the native population have received a cheerful welcome, which has made many a lonely heart feel that service in Porto Rico was not all hardship. The houses of the natives in the country and mountain districts are very small, many of them not being larger than a common sized room. On account of incessant rainy weather they are built on piles and covered with palm and banana leaves. Their houses seem to be large enough for a large family. The apparel of tl1e natives consists of light material and in many places they present a cleanly appearance. Small children do not possess any clothing. Many of them have a tendency for rapid learn- ing. The sense of patriotism has been instilled in them, that would teach many of our Americans an important lesson. They prize the Star Spangled Banner very highly. A beautiful scene to witness is just be- fore sunset as the band comes out into the Plaza at Ponce, and plays the Star Spangled Banner in front of headquarters while the American flag comes down for the night. The men of Ponce, are thoughtfully polite in their loyalty, and stand bare-headed while the flag makes its descent. Their courtesy finds its recognition when the band goes on and plays popular airs. One of the airs which tl1ey all admire is the execution of There'll be a hot time in the old town to-night. That was still at last accounts, the best known American tune at Ponce, and the natives knew it, and liked it, and sang it American words. and all. Under no circum- stances will they allow themselves to be called Spaniards, many of them become very indignant, and say, Me Porto Rico Americanof' The lan- guage used by the majority of the natives is a deviation of the Spaniards, so it is very difficult for those Americans who can speak the Spanish lan- guage to converse with them. Several members of the Sheridan Troop of Tyrone brought several native boys with them to the United States, and from recent inquiry they are making fast progress. Since Americans have taken the island prices have advanced to an absurd extent,+it being now pretty generally understood that we are a wealthy people and are liberally inclined. Even the ignorant market people spying an American afar olflimmediately raise their prices for the simplest things, one hundred per cent. or more. They seem to think that, as a nation we are literally made out of money and have come the1'e to spend it. As to, the climate, ask the average man who formed a complete part of the army of invasion which went to Porto Rico, what he thinks of the climate, and his opinion will most likely be forcibly expressed by the 70 I word damnable. His judgment is a biased one, however, for it should be remembered that he bore all the hardships of a severe campaign. With a system weakened by life in fever-infected camps, and after a pro- longed interval aboard cramped, foul-smelling transports, he was forced out, during the heat of summer, into torrid suns, chilling rains, and bot- tomless mud in tangled trails, subsisting meantime on a diet unknown to him in his own comfortable home,-a mixture of government straight and tropical fruits. It is little wonder that his plaintive song voiced itself in the words of God's country. The fact is plain, however, that the army of Porto Rico returned, in spite of necessary exposure, with few men left behind in lonely graves, and with a small percentage of sickness in its ranks as compared with the men who were forced into the death-trap of Santiago, while those who have remained on the island, quartered in barracks show a less percentage of illness in their forces than they did before leaving the United States. In spite of various and contrary opinions, the climate of Porto Rico is not a dillicult one for North Americans to hold their own in the year around. though it is most enjoyable in the middle of winter, when clothed in ice and snow. In the heat of summer the temperature rises from about 95 to I IOO Fahrenheit on the sea coast, and the nights are usually cool. Whatever unpleasantness pertains to the climate is the outcome of the excessive moisture of the atmosphere during the rainy season, and the sticky damp- ness of clear, dew-laden night. Imagine the peaceful slumber of one lying on the ground exposed to the rain, when he is thinking of the horse's possibility of getting loose and running over you, the idea of large sand crabs biting you, or to find yourself in a pond of water in a very short time during the night. Unquestionahly the rainy season is a trial to the constitution, for the wet air, heated by sudden sunbursts, is diiiicult to breathe, and exposed to the chilly damp of night is apt to bring on perni- cious and malarial fever. However, with anything like a proper care of the person and a fair diet of quinine, the summer season may be safely tided over. During our short stay on the island, the morning hours were usually without a breath of air. and the heat was relieved only when the sea breezes set in, which was about twelve o'clock, growing constantly stronger until five or six o'clock in the afternoon. Another period of breathless quiet occurs from this time until eight or nine in the evening, when tl1e cool dew-laden land breezes flowing clown the mountain-sides make it necessary to wrap in blankets against the chilling dampness. These hours of dusk are the most trying portions of the day, for large O 7iA blood-letting mosquitos fill the air with their fascinating songs, and it is utterly impossible to protect one's self from their poisonous bites. The last few weeks of our stay those interested in the unbounded scenery made daily saddle journeys through the country. Onevcould travelfor months and would see always the beauty of God's handiwork. The stately palms, the broad-leafed banana plantations, flowers, food and fruit trees, and jungle forests whose odd shapes and queer foliage lend a never-tiring charm to the scene. It is a Garden of Eden, and will become the winter Mecca of America. The beautiful mountain streams add to the beauty of Porto Rico. It is estimated that there are fifty large rivers and over twelve hundred small streams and rills, which find their way through the deep gorges of the high mountains across the fertile marshes to the ocean. There is hardly a square mile which if necessary, could not be irrigated from these mountain streams. Much of the fertility of the low land is attributed to the overflow ofthese streams. which deposit a rich soil. This one factor alone, of innumerable streams which give life to the air and land alike, makes Porto Rico a place of habitation preferable to any of the other islands of the West Indies. Ponce is the largest city of the island, with an average population of perhaps 3,S,ooo. It is a rich old town, exceptionally clean for Spanish- American, and well built. Its dwelling houses are mostly of wood, one story and with iron balconies, alld small windows without glass, while the public buildings are of brick and stone. The latter are grouped around a palm-shaded plaza and include a Roman Catholic Cathedral, and an Episcopal cl1urch: there are a l1alf dozen other churches, of course all Ro- mishg a hospital and several schools. The schools are very inferior and many children cannot attend them. The narrow, well-paved streets are lighted with electricity by an English company. The next town in point of population is San Germain which has about 3o,ooo according to a late census. After hostilities had ceased many of the men because they could not see the beauty of nature, discouraged because of very poor rations, which consisted of condemned beef, tomatoes, bacon and half-spoiled hard-tack, now turned their eves homeward. When the message reached us we were all glad to leave behind us our faithful horses, who fared so well in Porto Rico, and embark for home. Many dreaded the repeated disagree- able trip on the transport Mississippi. Aftera long, tiresome, and eventful trip of 1425 miles, which required seven and one-half long days, we be- held September roth, once more the land of the free and the home of the brave. We could sing America with entirely new vim. Our 72 greeting at New York by our friends and Gov. Hastings was a very pleas- ant one. ' Trains were awaiting our arrival to take us to Harrisburg.

S. none deserves greater commendation than the annual excursion to our national capital. There is no one thing which affords so much rest and ' gtqmhif enjoyment to tired minds as a trip to Washington, visiting her parks, museums, institutes and magnificent government buildings. Only those who have availed themselves of the opportunity, appreciate the value of such a trip. Those who have taken the trip speak of it in glowing terms as one of the most interesting and enjoyable features of the Senior year. The students of the school are to be congratulated for the privilege of taking advantage of the inducements offered, at minimum rates, for the excellent accommo- dations given by the railroads, hotels and guides. It is only through the persistent efforts of Dr. Barton, that this trip is made possible. Always having the student's welfare at heart-he, with untiring energy endeavors to have all enjoy themselves as much as possible. Needless to say his ef- forts are not unappreciated, as all join in rendering him the thanks due him for his eflicient management of this very pleasurable trip. From the moment the special train leaves the stile, all is good cheer and merriment. The scenery, as we go northward to Harrisburg through the heart of Cumberland Valley is superb. Thence to York and Balti- more, we reacl1 Washington about noon, all are in a mood to enjoy a most delightful time. QUnless someone has been so unfortunate as to lose his ticket-to be found somewhat later in a side pocket,-or two or three are car-sick, when Dr. Barton comes to their relief with his smelling salts.j Soon all are snugly stowed into the great four-in-hands and rolling toward the seat of the greatest nation in the world, while the tourist agent is tell- ing you of more things in a minute, concerning the beautiful city, than you can take note of in an hour, and Dr. Barton is arranging it so that there may be boys enough in each division to take care of the girls CPD should they encounter any dangers. Reaching the capital we hasten up the great steps and pause to view the magnificent surroundings. The beautiful avenues, parks and govern- ment buildings consume almost the entire field of vision. We enter t11e dome of the capital through massive doors and are made to stand within and gaze upward and around us in amazement. Here we are divided into three or four groups and a guide takes charge of each group. If Dr. Barton fails to arrange the grouping satisfactorily to all, the matter is speedily adjusted to harmonize with the desires of those interested. The guides are very accommodating and willing to show us everything and answer all interrogatives. Space will not permit description in detail, so we hasten to the Senate Chamber, the Chamber of the House of Repre- sentatives, the Statue Hall, the Library Hall, View the handsome paint- ings and after spending several hours here and wondering where the time has gone and where we can purchase new note books, we start for the new library building. Upon entering, the very common remark is Who would have thought it? or There is more here than I can observe in one day, I want to visit the building when Ican stay a week. Leaving this most magnificent building, we arrive at our hotel, where the accommodations are all that can be desired, we take a short rest and feel that we have seen suiiicient to keep us thinking for several months, but Dr. Barton with never tiring energy, insists that we must see all worthy of observation. Space will not permit a description in detail of the institutes, parks, the visitto the President's mansion and his cordial handshake, Soldier's Home, theatres, the delightful ride down the Potomac to Mt. Vernon and its scenery. ' After two days and a half of keen enjoyment in tl1e city of marvelous wonders we embark for C. V. S. N. S. feeling that we have seen every- thing of importance, wcndering how we shall be able to settle down to work again.

It l1as been our design to give the readers of tl1e REVIEW as faithful a record of these wearers of Blue as possible, but for lack of information, our list is somewhat incomplete and imperfect. We have spared no effort in trying to find out in what field of labor these adherents of Philo are engaged. Especial care has been taken to make this department of the REVIEW worthy of the place it is intended to fill. It is our earnest desire that this department may furnish information for at least some of its readers. . Absence has not diminished the interest and regard of any of its former members. They cherish the warmest feeling for their grand so- ciety-Philo. All express their best wishes and send greetings for the success of our society. - We hope that none may take offense if their name has been omittedg it was either an oversight or we were unable to learn of your where- abouts. With the untiring ambition of our present Juniors and those who in- tend to return we feel confident that the prospect of our society's success is exceedingly bright and that Philo's banner of Blue shall fioat from the topmast pinnacle of fame. We extend our thanks to those who aided us in our work. It has been the aim of the Personal Editors to do their best and they hope this may- meet the approval of all. 81 Cumberland. Miss Myrtle M. Mountz is residing at Carlisle, enjoying the pleasures of home life. She sends her love and best wishes ,for the success of Philo. May she ever prosper both in Quality and Quantity. .
