D. MOUZON TO OUR OWN BISHOP Qllte JUnteren Tahxxnn $). jffloitson, JL It ONE OF THE Bishops of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, elevated to that high office from the chair of Theology and the Deanship of the Theological Department o f Southwestern University, where for two years he had ably and faithfully opened the deeper religious realities to the students under his care; and during which time his ministrations from local pulpit and platform firmly fashioned into larger moulds the religious ideals of the entire student body; born in Spartanburg, S. O, 1869, an A. B., of Wofford College, 1889, from which time, with the exception of three years in the leading church of Kansas City, he served various pastorates in Texas, until 1 908, when he be- came the Dean of the Theolog- ical Department of South- western University, taking front rank as a religious and educational leader of Texas Methodism, In appreciation of his broad spirit, kindly grasp, keen intellect, resolute leadership, and still abiding interest in Southwestern University, ' Uhis the 191 I Sou ' wester is Dedicated. (Srcctums E are presenting you with the eighth volume of the SOU ' WESTER. It is far below our ideal, but it represents the expenditure of an im- mense amount of labor, and the staff craves the credit of having put forth an earnest, honest effort. We have not striven to make of this volume a distinctly literary creation; rather, it has been our ambition to preserve for you a picture of one year of your college life. If you try, you can readily find fault with it. There are things in it that may not suit you — neither are we pleased with them. You may fail to see the point in a drawing; or you may find a joke that does not cause an explosion of hilarity within your- self. In the event such is true, the staff will gladly explain to you any abstruse passage and try to make you see through it. tj We prefer, however, that you beam on our witticisms and sagely pass on all our literary productions an optimistic judgment, calling them meritorious productions of rising young authors. But, seriously, we have honestly tried to make this book worthy of our Alma Mater; and we thank those kindly spirits who have helped us, and have tried to appreciate our efforts. We shall treasure them in our hearts till all the seas gang dry. Contents Dedication .... Greeting . .. Board of Publication Calendar .... Trustees Retrospective The Faculty ....

SENSABAUGH 13 JRctmspccthte A FEW small scattered dwellings, a shabby little courthouse in the middle of a square where Indians gathered on trading days, near a great oak tree of legendary interest; rows of bois-d ' arc hedge outlining the possessions of the earlier settlers of the country; to the east vast fields of blue bonnets beyond an old rock fence that marked the edges of town; southeast, stretch- ing far across the prairie, a road over which came great droves of cattle on the way to northern markets; to the west and north, a beautiful, shady little river — such, the old timers tell us, was Georgetown in 1873. This was the year that Southwestern was founded. On August 2 1 , the commissioners who were to decide upon the location of the University, in their meeting at Galveston accepted the offer of buildings, land, and money made by the little town. Upon the reception of the news at Georgetown, said Dr. Mood, there was great rejoicing, the firing of a hundred anvils expressing the great satisfaction at the result. In October the University opened. A financial panic and a serious yellow fever scare made the first enroll- ment small, and work began with only thirty-three students and three professors. The present Fitting School building, minus the third story, with six unplastered, unceiled recitation rooms and a little chapel was the scene of the early labors of Southwestern. So rough was the appearance of the interior that, to one entering, the building looked like a cave. An early chronicle tells us that the attention of the students was often diverted by wrens building their nests in the crevices of the rock wall and sometimes enlivening the monotonous routine of class work by their cheery songs. In 1876 the first commencement exercises were held. To the invitations sent out over Texas, this important note was added: Also, if you come by rail, let us know the route, as the citizens here will make arrangements to con- vey visitors from Austin and the terminus of the International Railroad. 14 Five years after the founding of the University, the faculty opened a school for the accommodation and education of young ladies. This school met in the basement of the Presbyterian Church until the completion of its own two-story wooden building, four blocks west of the campus, on the site now occupied by the Georgetown City School. In those days co-education was debated by the Alamos and San Jacintos — and the neg- ative won. Whether the faculty was in- fluenced by this decision or not, the girls ' school remained separate from the main college for many years. In 1881 there was a second occasion for great rejoicing in Georgetown: $7500 had been raised and the building could be completed. A letter in the Texas Advocate dated July 13, 1881, and signed by Dr. Mood, gives us an insight into the feeling of the time: The University is to look out from the dormer windows of a mansard roof and the lofty heights of an embellished tower We invite preachers and laymen to meet us September 26, in our new, enlarged and beautiful building, to join with the throng of new students in singing at our ninth, and what will be our largest and most enthusiastic opening — 1 Praise God from whom all blessings flow. ' In 1 882 the corner stone of the Old Chapel was laid. Here, for many years, all the public exercises of the University, as well as all church services were held. This famous old building, which was removed from the campus some years ago, was never an attractive subject for the photographer ' s art, but the reminiscences, both grave and gay, of the Home Comers in 1909 indicated that many cherished interior views of the Old Chapel were clearly photograph- ically lined on the tablets of the mind. Giddings Hall was built on the north end of the campus in 1 886 and shortly afterwards the various Conference Cot- tages were added one by one. From the early college publications we get interesting sidelights on the middle period of Southwestern history. The Alamo and San Jacinto dTXTonthly, founded in 1 882, with Dr. Cody as its first editor-in-chief, began the great work of preserving the oratory that would otherwise have been lost on the prairie breezes or in the depths of the sympathetic San Gabriel. In 1888 appeared the An-X, edited by 1 5 s i 6 V ' i ,■ ' ■■ j { | | j i p H •% i || II , s|j ■ ' ' ::::::,-■■ the Alethean and Clio Societies, and con- taining essays on such significant themes as Progress of Womanhood, Self-re- liance, and Observations on Hope, Fear, and Disappointment. The JKConthly nicknamed the little paper The Female Clarion or Woman ' s Rights Vindicator. The girls retorted in a manner prophetic of the age of suffragettes. The fact that the new Annex building was nearing completion added piquancy to the repartee, for the girls were already feeling superior, and teasingly interspersed throughout their locals such gibes as O girls, doesn ' t our new Annex present an imposing view from the town! In 1889 the Annex was finished, and for some time its proud occupants looked down upon the young men on the ranches down the hill. As years went by, however, and co-education was gradually introduced, a friendlier feeling grew up, and finally, as if symbolic of the more angelic spirit of the girls, the Annex put out wings. Any history of Southwestern would be incomplete without mention of the Methodist Church at Georgetown, which has always been a large factor in the life of the students. In 1893, to the great satisfaction and and joy of interested friends throughout the state, a beautiful church building took the place of the Old Chapel. A magnificent pipe organ, added in 1908, made it complete. In the 90s the increasing number of students made the need for a laiger build- ing imperative, and in 1894 a campaign for funds was started. Finally, in 1900 the Main Building, so long and long- ingly dreamed of, so fondly set forth for years in wood cuts in all the college publi- cations, became a reality. The college 16 students proudly entered upon their fair possession, and graciously handed down the old building to the little prep brother. Mood Hall, already famous in song and story, not only for its architectural beauty and completeness, but for Short handle and other celebrites, was built in 1908, and was to the Home Comers in 1909 an inspiring indication of the rapid growth of Southwestern in recent years. Thus, in the thirty-eight years that have passed since the pioneer students came into Georgetown by stage-coach, has Southwestern prospered and grown. The old rock fence is gone, and on the bluebonnet fields have grown up the Annex, the Main Building, Mood Hall, and many beautiful homes. There is nothing now in the quiet dignity of the college town to remind the Old Timer of Indians and cowboys except the frequent triumphant yells of rooters down on the ath- letic field. Instead of the chirping of wrens in the quiet class room, the shriek and rumble of one of Georgetown ' s four- teen daily passenger trains now and then breaks in upon the monotony of the hour period. The old historic oak is gone; the fifth and most imposing of the court houses of Williamson County is almost finished. Only the Old Building of hallowed memories, and the still lovely little San Gabriel remain to speak to the Old Timer of the early joys and sorrows, the struggles and achievements of Southwestern and her makers. 17 1 8 ROBERT STEWART HYER, A. M., L. L. D.  . . fjscr, Jt. |i., I.  . Jl Iresiocnt nf ' outlimcstcrn llnhtcrstty |h ofcs5iu- of |)liysic5 NATIVE of Georgia, the mother state of so many illustrious sons, Robert Stewart Hyer stands abreast of the foremost of those whom Georgia and the entire South are proud to own as sons. He graduated from Emory College, Oxford, Georgia, with first honors, taking his A. M. degree from the same institution. In 1900, his learning and ability were formally recognized in the conferring of the degree of Doctor of Laws upon him by Central College, Fayetteville, Mo. Coming to Southwestern in 1882, shortly after his graduation from Emory, he became Professor of Science, the department at that time including physics, chemistry, and biology. Since then the growth of the University has been such that professors of chemistry and biology have been added, and Dr. Hyer now is professor of physics, with an instructor and a student assistant to aid him. The same period of time that has witnessed the phenomenal growth of Southwestern University, has seen Dr. Hyer advance to the enviable position he now occupies as one of the very foremost educators and leading scientists of the South. In 1898 he became Regent of Southwestern, and in 1906 his official title was changed to President. Under his administration Southwestern has grown from an obscure college to a university, whose graduates are recognized in the leading literary circles of the United States. The truly noble character and purpose of Dr. Hyer is illustrated by the fact that he has repeatedly been offered higher paying positions in larger institutions, but has as often declared: I had rather make men than money, and indeed he is performing with visibly great results his life ' s work. As a disciplinarian and teacher he is unsurpassed, and his personality commands the utmost confidence and respect of the entire student body. What a truly great life work it is to leave a living, growing testimonial to perpetuate one ' s name and mission in life, so long as religion and education shall advance. A great scientist, a broad and deeply read scholar, a most elo- quent, impressive, and tactful orator, a writer of no mean ability, a patriot, and a Christian gentleman with a great and noble purpose in life, he stands today pre-eminent among the educators and scientists of the South. 20 CLAUD CARR CODY. A. M„ Ph. D. DEAN. PROFESSOR OF MATHEMATICS 2 1 (E. €. (EoM , A. i t, |)l). P-, ?«att Professor of jMatljematics. ' LAUD CARR CODY, a true type of the beloved and rapidly disappearing Southern gentleman of the old school, is a Georgian by birth. Graduating from Emory College in 1875 with first honors, he, in 1878, received his A. M. degree from the same institution. After a few years of highly successful teaching, his Alma Mater, in recognition of his learning and ability, honored him with the Ph. D. degree. In 1879, he was elected Professor of Mathematics in Southwestern Uni- versity, then a newly-established, obscure and struggling college, and here he has remained ever since, standing loyally by Southwestern in her days of adversity, making her advancement his great purpose in life, and exerting with his lovable Christian character and magnetic personality a tremendous influence for the good upon the lives of all her students. His great love for Southwestern, and his self-sacrificing spirit can be no better illustrated than by the willingness with which he has always placed his services at the disposal of the University. He has held the office of Secretary of the Faculty, Chairman of the Faculty, President of the Ladies ' Annex, Mana- ger of Giddings Hall, and Dean of the Summer Schools, and is now Dean of the College of Science and Liberal Arts. Dr. Cody is now the senior member of the faculty and is believed to be the senior college professor in Texas. The biography of Claud Carr Cody and the history of the development of Southwestern University are one and the same. He has lived to see his early efforts in life bearing tremendous fruits. May time deal gently with him in his declining years and permit him to secure on earth a foretaste of that great reward so justly laid up for him in the Great Beyond. 22 (College of f heral rts ,ljuhn Robert Alien, A- P„ g).

The narrow path of learning was beset with many difficulties, for were we not all, indeed, atlas(es), feeling thew eight of the Universe (ity) upon our shoulders. But in the conquest for knowledge, some were hurled into the deep abyss where the mer- cenary spirit reigns; some were overcome by the tests of the sages; while some fell victims to cupid ' s darts. Yea, verily, they have endured many trials and temptations, for their record, has it not been written already, how they suffered and bore hardships as Freshmen and Freshwomen- even passing through a veritable fiery furnace, and did they not come out unscathed? But in their sophomore year, did their trials not become heavier and more burdensome? For were their souls not tried by stale jokes, dry witticisms, long- winded tales, and affectionate little homilies; and were their powers of endur- ance not tested when they were required to read three whole sides of the library, besides numerous magazine articles for their credits in English and History? And in addition to all this, were they not engaged in the deadly struggles be- tween Barbarians and Greeks? But when they came to the borders of Junior land, the stormy war clouds lowered threatingly. For were there not Grad hats to be captured and stored away in secret places? and then was our time not taken up in the selection of a fad, whereby our friends were made to feel the weight of our ever increasing importance? And were the Seniors of ' I not to be started off to their first Grad party right, with a sufficient quantity of powder and perfume? But verily, in our Senior days, are we not reaping what we have sown? For were we not initiated into the glories of a Grad party by being dusted with powder and anointed with perfume? Our course is finished and our race is run, and our reward is laid up for us — a roll of sheepskin. And we hope that our light may so shine on those coming after us that they may see our good works, and count it for the glory of the class of nineteen- ' leven. 45 Senior Academic (Colors White and G old If I nun- Daisy §0110, Daisies Won ' t Tell 2fa ■ ■ ■) Jttotto Not how much, but how well Class (Officers T.

University circles were filled with amazement today when the report was spread that Miss Coleman had been attacked in the Library.

The author of this diary is unknown, and from some cause, the narrative comes to a close here. It is only another instance of those unexplainable mysteries of this earthly existence. 69 70 Jtentor fflkss Htstarjn D ' k O we need to give our past history? Most of us have been written up for two or three years — and lack only an account for the present. However, there are two who have come from other schools to join us, and of whom we are justly proud. There is a poet in our midst — and three student assistants, various orators, athletes, and musicians stand as proof of our wide representation in every de- partment of our college life. As a whole, the class this year feels de- cidedly aristocratic — as a result of quality rather than quantity. I even fear that an impartial observer would pronounce us self- complacent. To be sure, we know that we have not grasped our reach as yet, but still we have many joys, without great responsibility, that others can not indulge in. We have the dignity that our under classmen can only aspire to, while we really look at our Senior brethren and sisters with compassion. The mortal terror of grad theses is unknown to us. One should not infer, however, that ours is a case of sophomore presumption — not yet outgrown — nor that our uplifted state of mind will fall from its pinnacle to the dust, when it is called upon to face the crushing cares that haunt the Senior. It may prove to be a poise that will not desert us. But we can only wait and see — and let the rest be silence! GRACE GILLETT 71 Jjiminr JVotJfoemit We R. Stanford ary Woods T E.

Till the torment of all good students Shall demerit us, none too few. And those who are grinds shall be happy; They shall sit on a hard old stool, And think of the causes of thinking, And split up the brain of a fool.

And not a Prof, there shall grade us, And not a Grad near shall there be; And no one shall hustle for honors, And no one shall mind getting C. But each with a kick at his text books, And each with the languor of ease Shall study — whenever he wants to, And eat everything that he sees. -ANNE CARTER. 78 ri ( 79 80 opljomore (Mass is un) THE Sophomore Class (with the assistance of the faculty) started out September 2 1 st, 1910, to find and slay that monster, Ignorance, which had been devastating Southwestern University Under-Classmen. We sought and worked diligently. Of all our tasks and duties we have felt most especially our duty toward the Freshmen. We have labored patiently and diligently with them, setting before them good examples in every phase of college life. We have stressed The Art of Respecting Your Superiors and dealt at some great length on The Besetting Sin of not Using Your Brains. We have done our duty to the College, to the Student body, and to the Freshmen. We have done even more, we have produced scholars, debaters, musicians; and our record in athletics is in proportion. Four of the Intermediate Debaters are from our ranks, as well as is the Left End of the Football Team. Manager Simons is to have charge of the Football Team for 1911. The Student Assistants in German and Gymnasium are Sophomores. But for fear this brief record of our class will sound boastful or presump- tious, we will refrain from going into further detail, but will conclude by saying that we have succeeded in slaying Ignorance; and [the faculty seem to be very grateful to the Sophomore Class of 1 9 1 0- ' 1 1 . 81 •§ ' npIttmuuT JWfoetnic dalav Yellow jFlotwcr Red Rose 3ffab Mule Stick-Pin iWotlo Keep on coming, no matter what happens (Officers Randolph Sanders .

O foolish question, said the grad; My Freshman days are best of all. I met a Prep with glorious rep, Who sought a nobler plane of life. My lad, said I, what is your goal? With these few words I stirred his soul. My goal? said he; I seek to be A full-fledged Freshman in the strife. I met a Prof — O now don ' t laugh! O Gracious One! said I, to me Thy ripest wisdom grant. Young friend, If you would seek the noblest end And happiest, a Freshman be, But never, never, be a Prof! I met a Soph — now you may laugh, But only at his loud necktie. Of all the souls on land and sea, Said I, which had you rather be? Said he, had rather be a Soph, But a Freshman? — never! — Wise reply. Prep, Grad and Prof — the wisest Soph O ' erwhelms them with his wisdom ' s weight. I seek no further evidence — Poor Freshman, now in decadence Await the scoff of the scornful Soph That unrelenting seals thy fate. Freshman 89 90 Jflrcsljinan (EJass history A FANNIE DOBIE Freshman Class History? Certainly we are just beginning, but making history — give us time and we will show you. We came from the four corners of the earth — from divers and sundry places. It has been said that had Freshmen existed in the days of King Solomon when he remarked: There are three things which are too wonderful for me and then added, yea, four which 1 know not, he would have said, yea five, and the fifth would have been, The way of Freshman at college. It is indeed wonderful. We are proud of our class. Who wouldn ' t be? It is a well known fact that no other Freshman class has ever surpassed us. Ours ' is by far the larges.. ever known in the history of the University. Our talents are numerous and var ious. We are athletes, politicians, ministers, musicians and scholars. Our boys take prominent parts in all the athletics and in debating circles as well. The leader of the S. U. Band is one of our number; so also are several of the musi cians. Then look at the beauty page; every girl is from our class. We know that we are Freshmen and we are proud of it. In conclusion we can but say: Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah! For the class of ' 14 Rah! Rah! Rah! We ' ve ne ' er been beat; n e ne ' er will be!

One reason for loyalty is its past record. The Alamo Society has always had a firmer basis than self-glorification. But its past, though it needs neither boasting nor boosting, for this very reason amply justi- fies the loyalty that every Alamo so freely gives. Moreover, there is in the Alamo a spirit of unity, of good will, of merit, of strength and growth and progress, that inspires the members with firm allegiance and earnest, intelligent effort to achieve the best. The Alamo stands for the good of all, and each member stands upon his own merit. The Alamo looks with just pride to the past; it seeks to con- serve the present by loyal effort within itself, and by friendship and co-operation with the other societies; and it faces the future with a spirit of progress in keeping with the growth of the in- stitution of which it is a part. During the present year, the Alamo has inaugurated far reaching policies, affecting the poli- cies and relations of all the societies. Long live the Alamo! In old Southwestern is a well loved Hall, Where dwells the spirit of the olden time, When sturdy men of might did deeds sublime, — True-hearted men, beloved of Texans all. Within these walls do youthful voices rise; What though the tongue be stammering? of old Was one the Greeks did scoff at, till grown bold He swayed the weaklings who did him despise. Behold our Alamos throughout the land. Swaying the Senate and the sacred pew. Imbued with voice of power and spirit true, Gained here within these walls where now we stand. Southwestern boasts no worthier son we know Than our beloved, triumphant Alamo. 107 ResoLred!.; A. at (j. o L u mi u. s d.(.scorereet 4bver .ca. 5a ' fy i M : k ■ 7 fc |lI !

M. 1 16 an JJachttct fKtetrjj 0ttetg |T is usually true of any permanent organization that it does not start as great as it afterwards becomes, that it must eliminate some of its inferior qualities, and that it starts with some principles vital enough to remain with it throughout its history. Such is true of the San Jacinto Literary Society. While we are proud of the way in which she started, the memories that are connected with her organ- ization, the men that she produced, and the creditable work that she did even in the first year of her existence, yet we are struck with a contrast when we view her field of work today and what she is doing to accomplish it. Let us look at the history of her first year ' s work in comparison with the work done this year. The records show that only twelve men took part in her debates in 1875, which was the first year of her history, but this year more than fifty men have taken part in her debates. In her first year some appeared as debaters only once and none more than four times, but this year from Christmas to Commencement every man has had a chance to debate at least seven times. During the first year only seven questions were debated in her meetings, but this year from Christmas to Commencement twenty-two questions have been set right by the brain of her men. But with her defects San Jacinto started with some very vital principles. Even before she had by-laws, she realized that her work was to enable the indi- vidual both to think and to communicate his thoughts. The records show that her first critic sought to enlighten the members not only upon the defects of their thoughts, but also to instruct them with reference to their imperfectly fram- ed sentences and awkward form of their person. She also started with the idea that thoroughness is a very necessary quality. Never did a body take more pains both in the producing and in the adopting of her constitution. Her members sought to have a thorough understanding of the questions debated. More than once, for the lack of time, was a question postponed until next meet- ing. It took two meetings for four men to discuss the question, Was Mary, Queen of Scots, Justly Executed? Also she started with the determination to justly win if possible. This is seen in the records of the contests of her individuals with each other. Three years later, 1878, in the first inter-society deb ate, she had and used the opportunity to demonstrate this determination. On and on she has been winning until there is more truth than fiction in the saying, San Jacinto was born winning commencement debates and has been winning them ever since. 1 17 1 1 8 1 1 9 (Clto § ' iicictu iWntto ' Oolamus alis propriis ' (C o I or s Pink and Gray JF I o to e r Pink Carnation adams, louise Abney, Ruth Black, Nellie Blair, Miriam Bludworth, Grace Clay, Ione Clay, Frances Crutchfield, Hallie Cross, Marye Clay, Elizabeth Dobie, Fannie Elrod, Ethel Finch, Florence Ferguson, Mettie Garrison, Aleta Gose, Eula Hanover, Kate Holt, Lucy •Society JUill Hawthorne, Lucile Jones, Ivalee John, Mary John, Lisle Killough, Willie Lipscomb, Lula Laws, Kate Long, Della Lawrence, Cecile Markward, Frances McKay, aleatha McKee, Emily McFadden, Julia Morris, Monta Morris, Maud Nichols, Mary Lynn Nixon, Hallie Ryan, Florence Robertson, Fay Stanford, Florence Stanford, Sue Stanford, Myra Steele, Nello Smith, Lillian Smith, Donella Smith, Carol Sedberry, Ella Tillett, Mamie Taylor, Mary Belle Treat, Mary Wright, Edenia Wilson, Ida Wallace, Pearl Weisinger, Ella White, Vera Wollschlaeger, Anna 1 20 ■ A If 11 .

The duty of the Committee is to select each year a series of high class entertainments which will both benefit and entertain the student body. The greatest diffi- culty it has, is to select a course that will please all the people all the time. However, the Committee has met with much success along this line this year. As a whole the attractions have been excellent. The fol- lowing were the numbers on the course for 1910-1 I. Parland Newhall Co.; Hon. Jas. K. Vardaman; The Ernest Gamble Concert Party; Wilbur Starr Quartet; Ross Crane; Hon. Wellington Vandiver and Francis MacMillen. After the course, and after the expenses are paid, what money is left over is divided among the four literary societies, and if there is a deficit the societies are cal led upon to pay it. This seldom, if ever, hap- pens. The Lyceum Course is a popular thing among the students and they support it liberally. 1 -25 MARSHALS 1 26 (Officers of (Oratorical Association 1 F. A.

Arbuckle Southwestern possesses a professor, an - all-round athletic coach, and a perfect gentleman; a com- bination that secures the respect and genuine esteem of every- one with whom Coach comes in contact. It is his personality, as well as his ability as a coach, that has worked such wonders in Southwestern athletics since Mr. Arbuckle became the director. Taking charge of this department when it was distinctly in an embryo state, he has in three years developed it into a state of efficiency not excelled in Texas. That Southwestern today occupies so prominent a position in College Athletics, is due largely to the untiring energy, efficiency and enthusiasm of Coach Arbuckle. 188 O c ' -«,- ' . . : ,4 jV • ' kj -, ' v.

Strange 190 football for 1 9 1 Q OUTHWESTERN ' S Football season of 1910 was a prosperous one from many standpoints, although only two games were won and one tied, out of the seven played. The team under the direction of Coach Arbuckle played a great game throughout the season and was in every game from start to finish, with the probable exception of the Thanksgiving contest. %bt (Texas (frame S. U. ' s hopes ran high and everybody thought we would surely take in the Texans. At the end of the first half our supporters were of the same opinion, for the score stood 6 to 5 in our favor. The last half gave the Texans thei r sec- ond touchdown, and they owe it to the one fact that they played the old style football entirely, and literally pushed the pig skin carrier over the line. The scoring ended with this touchdown and our warriors could not overcome the lead, the final score being 11 to 6. II ante I Baker (Same This game showed Southwestern ' s great improvement, and in it the team gave a good interpretation of the new rules, which were being tried out by all football artists. The game in itself was a walk-over for Southwestern from the beginning; and touchdowns were made at will. The Daniel Baker team man- aged to get over one touchdown, but that was all they could muster. H h e A i k a n 5 a s (frame This was practically a victory for the Yellow and Black. At one time it was all Arkansas and then all S. U. The game was won for Southwestern until the last quarter, when the Razorbacks slipped a man out on the side line and shot a forward pass to him. He sped across the goal line for the last touch- down, and the victory was gained by one lone point. This was one of the hardest fought games Southwestern played during the season, and the team won much favor by its great playing. ' ttTrfe Justin (College (frame This game was the one disappointment of the season. The team was on the return from Arkansas and several men were crippled. On this account Southwestern allowed the Collegians to tie the score by making a touchdown in the last minute of play. During the game, when Southwestern would be in striking distance of the A. C. goal, somebody would invariably fumble the ball, 19 1 allowing the Collegians to punt out of danger. The Austin College men admitted that they were lucky to escape defeat in this game, by having a shirt-tail parade over the streets of Sherman on the night following. Iie tt, ft. 1. (Same This game was one of revenge on the Christians, for they had walloped our team the previous season. Southwestern piled up 27 points without much effort during this skirmish, while the Christians ' scoring was due to Daniel ' s place kicking. The final count showed the score to be 27 to 6. Zl e A. Jtt. (Same A muddy field at A. M. saved the Farmers from defeat. The field was slippery and detrimental in every way to a fast team. The Farmers managed to slip over with one touchdown and then kicked goal. Southwestern threatened several times but could not cross the coveted line. r i ? for the Baylorites recovered our fumbles and ran first for 3 yards and then 5 and chalked up two touchdowns. This un- looked for incident put South- western in despair; and after the second quarter, in which Bill Headrick went over for our only touchdow, the Baylor team ran wild on the gridiron, Wc t ' (Hhanksiiiuiim (Same According to all the forecasts, the comparative scores and other dope, we were sure of giving Baylor a good beating on Thanksgiving Day. Fate was against us, and Luck we had ncne. We were beaten in the first two minutes of play, 192 scoring 27 points in all. — The decisive score could not be taken as a criterion of the re _ spective playing ability of the two teams, for it is known that the wearers of the Yellow and Black got a bad start, had an off-day, and were not cap- able of playing the game they had played throughout the whole season. Tackles were missed, punts were missed, our luck was missed, and the good playing of the en- tire team was missed. As a result the Baylor game ap- pears on the wrong side of our ledger. But despite this fact, the boys put up a fight that would have thrilled the mighty Jove. It was grand to see them stand like giants proving the fact that Southwestern ' s ' 1 team against the terrific onslaughts of the cool, well grooved Bay- lor machine. They were play- ing at a game in which they knew they were beaten. They had failed to star, as they had so often done, before the throng of Southwestern sym- pathizers. They were the stubborn contenders for a lost cause, yet they battled on, was the best in her history. 193 3n,c «£ jwci Arthur R. Henderson of San Angelo, captain for the 1911 team, played a remarkable game throughout the season. He was at S. U. when football was reinstated, and has played in many positions. His greatest work this year was done at the tackle, and guard positions. He especially dis- tinguished himself in the opening game of the season with the University of Texas, and kept up his good work in all the games that followed. Hendy had no football experience previous to his training at Southwestern, except at the West Texas Military Academy at San Antonio. He weighs 1 60 pounds, is 6 ft. in height, and is sure to make a great leader for the I 1 team, probably playing in the back field. James C. Snipes came to Southwestern as a halfback, but owing to his knowledge of the game was put in the quarterback ' s position. Jack is one of the strongest defensive men in the game in Texas today, as well as being a ground- gainer of merit. His greatest game played during the season was with Arkansas, where he ran the team in fine style and pulled off a 60 yard run for a touch- down. He had had some slight experience at Wesley College at Terrell, and developed rapidly under Coach Arbuckle. jack tips the scales during the football season at practically 155 pounds, and is 5 ft. and 1 1 inches tall. This is his last year at S. U. W. M. Headrick came to S. U., having never played football, but soon developed into a star. He played his first year at tackle but owing to his speed, played a star game in the back field for the seasons of 1909-10. Owing to his phenominal work in the fall of 1 909, Bill was elected captain by his team mates and proved a worthy leader for the season just passed. He played his greatest games at Austin and in the Thanksgiving game at Baylor. In each of these games he scored the only touch-downs S. U. could muster. Bill weighs 1 80 pounds and is 5 ft. 1 Oh inches in height. 194 Newton E. Keene has played only one year with Southwestern regulars, but the improvement this year over that of the two former years with the scrubs, was phenominal. He is a ground gainer who can always be depended upon, and a sure tackier. In the T. C. U. and Daniel Baker games, Newton ran at random, his opponents being unable to stop him. His experience and knowledge of the game came after two years hard work with the scrubs. His position was at ight end, where his 150 pounds and 5 ft. 10 inches were always on the job. A. D. BROWNFIELD played left end throughout the season in a very con- sistent manner. An accident the prevous season knocked Dee out of much football experience, but he came back strong; and was always on the job. He will probably be back next year to play a greater game than ever, at his old position. Dee weighs 156 pounds and is 5 ft. 9 inches tall. E. M. Strange Dutch was some full back from the beginning of the Texas game until the fin l whistle blew in the Thanksgiving disaster at Waco. He always hit the line hard, and was good in breaking up the formations of the opponents. He also added several points to our score by his drop kicks. Dutch is only 5 ft. 8 inches tall and weighs 1 68 pounds. 195 O. O. MlCKLE Uncle Billie was one of the star tackles of the season. In the Arkansas game his work was of the phenominal character. Although he was irjured in the first half of this game, he continued to batter down the defense and to open holes fcr the back field men. He never failed to put his best efforts into every con- test. Uncle weighs 175 pounds and is 6 ft. 4 inches in height. A. L. VOIGT always had the defense guessing, when he was in possession of the ball. He is a fast man and a con- sistent ground gainer when in the half back position. This was probably his last year in the Southwestern lineup; and he will be missed next year. He weighs 1 75 pounds ard is 6 ft. tall. J. B. HENDRIX is not as fast as some of his team mates but always plays a steady game. Many gains were made by him through his tackle position, ard he could be re- lied upon to get the opposing man out of the way. He weighs 1 85 pounds and is 5 ft. 11 inches in height. 196 G. A. Parr is not a very fast man but his passing of the ball was always reliable. On defense, he did great work the past season, and always smashed the opponents de- fense when they came his way. He played excep- tionally good football in the Texas, Daniel Baker, and T. C. U. games. Givens weighs 1 70 pounds in foot ball togs and is 5 ft. 10 inches tall. R. K. McHenry Mc, because of his fleetfootedness and dodging ability, was always a dangerous man with the ball. He is probably the greatest broken field runner in Texas today, and a hard man to tackle. He did his good work in the half backs position, and great things are expected of him for next season. Mc weighs only 1 38 pounds and is 5 ft. 10 inches in height, but his smallness of stature does not effect his ability in the least. 1. H. AYRES To come through Ayres side of the line was a hard problem for all opponents. He stood as a stone wall in the games which he played, but missed three games on account of injuries received in the Texas game. He weighs 1 70 pounds and is 6 ft. tall. 197 GLIMPSES OF THE GAME 198 -p 0 -y.  V) } } A y o n C 1 99 II mk HomP U. A . ' ASS AWL fhNNED OU.T 200 20 1 PasebrlJ torn 1910 AYRES, Captain ....

Vice-President Secretary and Treasurer T epresentative to Honor Council Milford, Texas Duncanville, Texas Dallas, Texas Como, Texas Htsturu FROM the Sophomore having his abode in the vicinity of the main Univer- sity, nothing save what may be termed Sophomoric is likely to emanate ; but such appellation is neither courted nor permitted by the settled Soph, of the Medical Department. Truth is, they are men, and take life seriously; con- sequently this epitome will be designedly syncopated, but abounding in veracity. First, the Sophomore Class lacks nothing in fulfilling the requirements of perfection — a proposition we are able to substantiate with statistics. We stand for perfection in all things, from the humble Farmer Dan to the scientific Cheemist. We do not approve of the spirit of boasting, else we would men- tion the fact that some of the highest college honors are held by our men. Absolutely no other class has a Preacher or a Chinaman. Neither can any class show up a man so magnanimously erected as our Heavy Hamp, nor so exquisitely and daintily pretty as our Mr. Smith. No one studies harder and gets his text more exact than the Rounder; while on the other hand, no one takes life easier and looks at his books less frequently than Nick. P. G. Lilly is the Honor Council for us, (huge joke), and the industrious Anatomi- cal Flunky is a part of us. Not even the Seniors have a sportier lad than the Jelly Bean, nor a crazier guy than Loonatic. Big Chief knows all about how a school should be run and lets it be known by his Chronic Beefing. And last, but far from least, is our own dear little Mellen ' s Food Baby, who is always with us, even unto the end of the world. 240 WMKTSSSSM WfWSSamWSBSSBSSSt FRESHMAN MEDICINE 241 Jlrcsljman Jft ititte (Officers L. P. PLAYER .... President J. G. MCLAURIN . . Vice-President Frank M. Moose . . . Secretary J. B. WEBB . . . Honor Council || t story The Freshman Class is not perfect by any means. In the first place, one member of the class betook unto himself a wife and could not come any more. In the second place, there is one who could not learn anything about the Clavicle; another who never heard of the Spheno id Bone, and others who prefer (?) to take the whole course next year. Still there are members in the class of whom we are justly proud. One is officially self-appointed to receive all agents who come to the College. And he it is who, in the early part of the year, discovered a new muscle arising from the External Occipital Protuberance. He gave to it the name of Heliotrope, and of course it will appear in the next Anatomy. Another member can, by means of his fingers, explain vividly any- thing, from the origin and insertion of any muscle to the antidote for Arsenic. We are proud of thosewho, in every quiz, always know, but just can ' t tell it. They will some day befamous. We are glad to see the high-schoolism of two or three membersstruggle for existence when brought into contact with the men of the College — it shows perseverance. We boast of the fact that one of our number holds the highest office in school — Sergeant-at-Arms of the Students ' Association. This is a position that many men have wanted. In fact, the Sophomores tried to get it this year and the Seniors just knew they had it, but the Freshman triumphed because we are the only class that had a man worthy of the place. There are many other facts that show that the Freshman Class is the best in school — but these suffice. 242 |II|armacy Jifamlig % . (So on, 1}. (£., M. £.

Several Juniors were discussing the subject of tumors, and the conver- sation drifted to clocks. Colwick said he once saw a clock with La Paloma on it.

Many Art students have cheerfully taken time and trouble to do illustrating, for which they could expect no compensation except the good will of the staff, which they certainly have. Under the able supervision of Miss Sallie Kyle, this department has progressed wonderfully during the past three years. Then she began with twelve pupils, and in poor quarters, but now she has more work than she can do, and is planning to have more and better working rooms.

The fact that there are this year eighteen students at South- western from San Antonio seemed an ample excuse for the formation of some sort of organization which should bring into closer touch the representa- tives of that city. The Club has reasons as well as excuses for existing, but as our constitution has not yet been fully drawn up, these can not be stated author- itatively. Its purposes, be it understood, however, are, in the main, benevolent. We have adopted colors, a motto, a yell (in pamphlet form) — everything, in fact, that goes to make life desirable. We also had our picture taken, and merely to avoid being trite and conventional, we refrain from apologizing for it. We num- ber eighteen; picture or no picture. It must not be thought that the San Antonio Club is a temporary organization. We lose our two Seniors this year and our Juniors and Sophomores reach the mystic number three. The other members possess the wee sma ' hours. Undue prominence has been given the Club lately, for whenever we desire to sit in solemn conclave the world at large is ap- prised of the fact at Chapel. We hope, however, that the formation next year of other Clubs will render this less of a novelty. ' 268 Jlcf ettnatt (Ikntnty (ttlub Jtoll Andrews, E. B. Miles, Willie Lee Barcus, J. M. Nail, O. W.

And why, you ask, with inquisitive eye brow, were these fair damsels thus set aside and secluded as rare hot-house violets?

The drowsy head on the pillow tried to shake itself awake, but sleep had not come till late, and now it persisted in remaining. By the light of a miserable oil lamp the room looked as if it had been sacked, so bare and littered was it. Evidently, one at a time, the inmates of it were leaving. Com- mencement was over. Good-bye, wife, huskily half whispered Perman. For the last twenty minutes, during which time he had been dressing, he had not spoken a word. But now his emotion made him speak. Good-bye. We shall always be friends and never forget each other. 1 must go. Then — smile not, coy maiden, whom Henry Perman never half so ten- derly or softly kissed — he brushed back the tousled hair of the half awake comrade and touched his lips to the forehead. Ay, if the whole truth must be told, he had during the very little time he had slept that night lain with one arm over his bed-fellow. And well might this parting be long and deep. It was to be a long time before there was another. Good-bye, Henry, gapingly forced Rosewood, who was no less affec- tionate at heart because the more sleepy. He, too, would leave in a few hours. After another vow of eternal friendship and the fiftieth exhortation to write often, Perman, suit case in hand, started for the little sleepy depot, where many, many times before he had walked, sometimes gladly, but never feeling as now, When he came to the edge of the campus he turned and took a last look at the silent and sweetly familiar buildings, which seemed to now relax their sternness as he was leaving their portals, as a student, forever. If, after a long — short too — sojourn in the place whence you were going, you, O lover of college life, have had to leave, to break all associations and academic customs, to step forth from affection and guidance and friendship not terrestrial, into the cold and sordid world — if you have had to do this, then you may enter into the feelings of the heavy heart of Henry Perman, as the train of iron and wood raced him to a land, far away in space and in charac ter from that which he was leaving. Settled in a comfortable seat, he thought of how for four years he had been traveling this way; each trip, though he did not always realize it, finding him a little more mature, a little broader in mind, a little more cultured, a little more earnest towards life. Yet now he felt weaker than ever. He thought of 289 how during all this time he had roomed with Dillard Rosewood; how they had never quarreled; how they knew the very inmost depths of each other ' s souls • and what beautiful depths did Dillard ' s seem to him! How, and his eyes turn- ed toward the misty hills as he thought of this, they would miss each other. When he felt the tobacco can in his pocket he thought of how often they had smoked from the same can, and it seemed as if their beings were as inseparably mingled and alike in ideals as were the smokes which used to flow the one into the other, back yonder in the room, where even then Rosewood must be listlessly dressing, thinking the same thoughts as he. The other passengers were stirring He was in the midst of the world. It was only a few days until the twenty-first day of April, 1925, on which day there was to be the greatest Homecoming that S , G town ' s great S , had ever known. How many would meet who had not met for decades! How many would return with silvered hair and well known names, who a score of years before had borne themselves so carelessly, had been as little known by the world as they knew the world! Too, how many would return hither whose station was humble, or whose carriage bespoke mediocrity or fail- ure to meet success! Surely, Henry Perman and Dillard Rosewood, whose friendship and abil- ity was yet faintly traditional among the old timers, will be jolliest and foremost in this assembly. Will they? Since they parted in the fresh morning of that June day, almost a quarter of a century ago, they had drifted far apart. At first they corresponded regularly, then irregular, then not at all. Their walks of life led in diverging ways, and after a few visits they had not seen each other for a long time. They were not alienated, but, somehow, each having his own business and family to attend, there had grown up a neglect, an indifference. It was the same old story — even as all of this is. Well, Perman has prospered, in fame and in wealth. As for Rosewood — not even the devoted Henry seems to know much about him, but, doubtless, they -will lock arms, and smoke from the same tobacco can and live the old days all over again — when they meet at Homecoming. Already the gray haired boys — what a motley crew! — are coming in. Yes, and Henry Perman is among them. How does he find things since his commencement? Last night he arrived over the same railroad that he left on, so long ago. As the train thundered over the San Gabriel bridge the dusky porter, as of old, called out, Gauwg — town, Gauwg — town. For hours he had been dreaming and thinking — alone — over things that had not occupied his mind for years, and although there were several acquaintances of the olden days on the train, somehow he did not feel at all communicative. Dillard used to ride with him and how the old bunch did make life miserable for the staid and sleepy passengers. Actually, some of the boys were at it that night. 290 The train ran into the station. It was changed. In place of the little old dimly lighted depot, with the two trucks outside, the sleepy night agent stumb- ling about, and the drowsy hackman calling out to the few who got off, there was the busy and hurried bustle about a large depot. Instinctively, Perman started for the old dormitory. He watched the lights on the rear of the train disappear as he stood alone on the campus. There is a new building or two there, but it all looked familiar. The gray, damp morning mists had begun to settle, but through it he could see the old main University building rearing her towers, solemn, cold, majestic, and grand in her simplicity. Beyond, Mood Hall, silent, stern, and rapt in slumber, lifted her bulky outline; and to the east, in his mind ' s eye, he could discern the Annex with its broad wings and grassy lawn in front — and a smile played over his face. He had left his wife and children at home. It was warm, and, lost in thought, he seated himself on the well-worn stone steps of the University. Nearer and more real than ever came the sweet past to him. He forgot that he had no room in the hall, that he knew not one of the boys there. In- stead, he wondered if he would find the door of his room waggishly locked against him, if there would be a pan of water somewhere in the dark hall-way, if he would stumble over a heap of cans and bottles, setting them rolling down the stairs with an awful noise, if the good Professor , awakened from his too often broken rest, would presently appear on the scene and catch him re- turning at such an unholy hour, if Dillard had joined in the diabolical, ancient trick of hiding the slats of his bed. He could hear old Bill snorting at being waked by himself, as it was the unbroken custom of every late returner of the section to wake old Bill. He chuckled to think how Dillard would grunt and keep on sleeping, no matter if the whole section aroused themselves to give a midnight castigation to the troublesome incomer. And the thought was so pleasant that he determined to go at once and let that section know cf his joy- ful return. And, so he started briskly for the well known quarters. Then — he awoke from his reverie. Where were the boys? Ah, he nor any one else would ever disturb the quiet sleep of one of them. Where was Dillard? He had as well return home if Dillard was not there. A great lump arose in his throat as he thought of his old room-mate. Ere long it would be day-break, and reflecting that it might not seem proper for a prominent judge to be found parading the streets at such an early hour, he made for a hotel, where, needless to say, he slept not a wink. But he did think. Dillard could not come, he now resolved, because he had no means of coming. And, Perman blushed to think of the old way in which they had held all in common, and of how he had not offered this old comrade even a cigar for — how long had it been? He would telegraph him money, and he might yet come to the Home 291 coming. Then he thought of Dillard accepting charity money. He dressed and walked the floor. What could he do? Back on the old grounds and no Dillard! And he wondered if Dillard was thinking of him. As soon as he could with decency call on the bursar — who always knows everything — he did so, immediately afterwards sending the following telegram: Mr. Dillard Rosewood, A , Gexas. Jlre. you coming to the Homecoming? Old times. Love. Wire colled. Henry Perman. Back came the answer: Can ' t leave business. Uhinl of me. ' TTe the boys. Affectionately, Dillard. Business, humbly murmured Perman. Wood selling must be rushing these cald April days. The return message was paid. The Rosewood family will live scantily today for that, he mused. Then there was another consulta- tion with the busy bursar, resulting in another diplomatic telegram: Mr. Dillard Rosewood: Certain University matters of a peculiar and unexpected nature demand your presence here tomorrow, for a few hours. For your old college ' s sake come at once. Explain later. Remember too, ' tis Home- coming Day. Find ticket prepaid at office by Uni. {Ffursar. That will bring him, chuckled Perman; and it did. We need not tell of what a maneuvering, diplomatic matter the explaining was, nor of how the old comrades spent the day. In the cool sweet night of April the twenty-first, 1925, two boys — college friends — again parted. Good-bye, Dillard, we shall always be friends, tenderly spoke one. What a thing Friendship is, quoted the other. Never more -would they drift apart. Amicus. 292 parallel HAT is this look that I see in thine eye, O fair and I mournful one? From the look on thy sad face one would say that thou wast preyed upon by some secret and deadly woe. Is there no power to free thee from this sla vish servitude into which thou hast fallen? Canst thou not sally forth as did the knights of old and conquer thine enemy? Fie upon thee for a lily livered cad that thou art! What is this look that rests in thy wild eye? O child, thou frightenest me! Be not so direfully dark and desperately des- pairing in thy threats and communications. Canst thou not tell thy true friend what foul fiend it is that haunts thy pathway? Thou sayest that it is with thee in thy down-sitting and thine uprising. Yea, it haunteth thy waking and thy sleeping thoughts, and leaveth thee not, even on the Holy Sabbath? Come, whis- per gently in this waiting ear the name of that which frets thy life ' s smooth stream. Be thy murmur as gentle as the sibilla- tions of the soft evening zephyrs, I will hear thee.

C. 293 JV $uilttmarc Subsequent to a Glee Club Entertainment 3j Malvolio You ' re lying abed With a very queer head, And it ' s late, but you ' re not a bit drowsy; Seems hours since you ' ve come From the Auditori-um, And you ' ve tumbled back and forth till you are frowzy. Your brain is awhirl With a regular swirl Of ditties you heard at the Glee Club; And gladly, to quiet Its tumult and riot, You ' d endure a well wielded elm- ree -club. But the tunes won ' t abate; They career through your pate In a chase growing madder and madder; The bewitching refrains Chime along in your brains Like the gong of a crazed hook-and-ladder. For two hours you ' ve tossed Like a ship that ' s got lost In a gale that made even the crew sick, When with oaths you perceive What you ' re loath to believe — ... You are rolling in time to the music! 294 You rise in despair And gulp down some fresh air, Your frayed wits with slumber composing; Return to your shake-down (Which suffers a break-down), And (2:10 a. m.) you are dozing. O blessed relief! But your respite is brief, For the Glee Club sings on in your slumbers; Bass and Tenor get mixed, And the words become fixed To tunes not put down in the numbers. Now the whole sixteen come trooping, Most melodiously whooping The dulcet strains of Old Black Joe; Whom to represent successfully. They hobble in distressfully, And every man is blacker than a crow. They are coming, they advise you, For their heads are bending lower; This doesn ' t much surprise you, As you have heard those words before: But you do a lot of thinking As their bodies keep on shrinking, And their heads continue sinking Till they rest upon the floor! 295 After breathless contemplation Of this strange transfiguration, You perceive the explanation: They ' re Kentucky Babes asleep; And while dozing there (and singing), You observe them gently swinging, As they ' re Rocked in the Cradle of the Deep. For there now aboard a steamboat, And you too are on this dream-boat, A delicious chocolate-cream-boat, Lulled in seas of orangeade; Soon she stirs and gets a-going, With her gauzy pennants flowing, And her whistle softly blowing Strains of Schubert ' s Serenade. Then the Glee Club falls to dancing, And their toes are nimbly prancing In a hornpipe most entrancing, While the band plays Traeumerei; They are sailors, (costumes faultless!), And their jig is more than halt-less — Yes, you really wish they ' d vault less — Ouch! that kick just missed an eye! They get more and more unruly. And although you protest duly, They proceed to whistle coolly, Just to show they ' re unconcerned; But their whistling ' s most alarming For it draws the clouds a-swarming, In a trice the winds are storming, And the ship is overturned! 296 You are spilled in the drink. But just as you sink, You make a wild clutch at the rudder: It ' s an inch beyond reach, So you let loose a screech, And -wake with a horrible shudder. The quilts are awry And your mouth has gone dry, The sheets have got tangled, Your night ' s rest is mangled, The morning is breaking, The roosters are waki ng, Your big toe is itchin ' . Your back got a stitch in, The cook ' s in the kitchen, You hear her a-pitchin ' The wood in the fire; And you fiercely desire That she ' d fall in too, Or be sucked up the flue! But you ' re thankful in spite Of a comfortless night For your most inexpressible pleasure: In hearing the strains And heart-easing refrains Which the Glee Club poured forth without measure. And you stoutly declare, While untangling your hair, You could wish for no better employment: Than night after night To sit with delight And partake of such matchless enjoyment.

The girls can ' t think or talk about anything but Regini and his fiddling, or the silly little piece that was with him. You won ' t hear anything else from ?er. Tender subject, growled Tubby, making a lunge at him which knocked out the two remaining slats. In the midst of the scuffle that followed, the door opened and in walked Red Jordan, loaded down with a suitcase and a bag of bats. Jack untangling himself first bellowed a lusty greeting, and with a rush the clan was upon him. Relieved of all baggage he was besieged with questions. Take this, directed Jack, surprised into unusual accommodation by his room-mate ' s sudden appearance, dumping the rubbish out of a much battered, and rather rickety rocker, and dragging it forward. How did you get here so soon? Why didn ' t you let us know you were coming to-night? demanded Chub, kicking a jersey, two bats and a glove under the bed, by way of h elping sort Red ' s clothes, while Sog stuffed Red ' s best suit under his head in lieu of a pillow. We ' ve heard about your home run, and was it Tom or Sam that got crip- pled? Was he much hurt, and how did it happen? One at a time, please, laughed Red, cheerfully helping himself to Jack ' s best cigars and basking in his unusual popularity. The train out from Sherman was late and we caught it. Purely an accident, and we didn ' t have time to phone ahead. It was Tom, poor fellow — he ' s crippled pretty badly, but he did some star playing first. He just broke up that second game. But it ' s good to be back. Tell me all about everybody. How ' s Peggy? Been making eyes at any of you lads since I ' ve been gone? I haven ' t had a letter for three days — I ' m 298 sure she ' s written though. Guess I ' ll go see about her myself, though I can scarce rend myself away from such an audience. Here flunky, hand me my hat, will you? Here Chub opened his mouth to speak, but refrained at a warning tweak from Sog, and Red departed with a sweeping bow and a farewell bang of the door. Oh, I know she ' s out of town for a week, but let him go on, and 1 say, lads, let ' s scare him up about Peg. Take some of the starch out of him, he ' s so disgustingly vain, Sog replied to Chub ' s astonished look. I happen to know that Peg played for Regini, and he complimented her, and — Yes, and I talked to her the other day, broke in Jack, and she just rant- ed about him. Oh, we ' ll make him sore before she comes back. An hour later Red slunk in disgustedly. You knew well enough she wasn ' t at home, he growled crossly. Look ' s like you might have been white about it when you knew 1 was dead tired, and it ' s pouring down like fury. Oh, we thought the walk would be good for you, laughed Jack, but I say, old man, here ' s where you lose out. Better stay at home with Peg next time — she ' s too attractive to leave behind, and she ' s not caring about you any- more, anyway. Look here, fellows, I ' d like to know what this means, blazed Red angri- ly. 1 don ' t quite see the joke. Oh, indeed, and I assure you it isn ' t a joke, rejoined the Kid coolly. Why, I heard her say last week that she never could love a lad since she had seen Regini. He made her see how disgustingly silly they are. Yes, said Chap, and she said that she was head over heels in love with the long haired genius — she ' s lost her heart for sure this time. Red looked uncomfortable. And pray tell me, what ' s so fascinating about him? he mumbled. Oh, said Jack, his music is divine; he puts his whole soul into it, and his eyes — seem to look down on you and read your very — Ah, come out of it, Jack, the sentimental part doesn ' t suit you. Oh, indeed, and I was only quoting Peggy, retorted Jack loftily. Dont feel too bad, old pal, just because your lady fair is fickle, cooed Sog, while the Kid was overcome with an excessive fit of coughing and had to leave the room. Guess I ' ll get a letter tomorrow, was all Red said as the clan broke up for the night. For three days the boys joked Red, and no one knew how it hurt his vanity to bear their chafing, nor his pride to think of Pegg ' s treatment of him On the fourth day the letter came. But such a letter! Peggy gushed, she went into raptures, and waxed eloquent over — the violinist! Never would she rest until she could study where Regini had studied, and his music — never before •2 9 9 had such music been made — was sublime ; and his eyes — they were indescribable. She had always loved black eyes [Red ' s were blue]. She ' d never love anyone else. Why no one else was worth loving. Hear from Peggy, Red? called Chap from the front porch as Red strolled up the walk. Yes, answered Red, waving a fat letter triumphantly — A long one. It was great, he lied cheerfully, and Peg ' s coming tomorrow. Oh, said Chap aloud, and aside to the Kid. All up now with our joke. That blamed long haired fiddler, groaned Red to himself, as he came slowly up the steps trying to look cheerful. The next afternoon as Peggy, strolling leisurely along, came in front of the house Red, who had been waiting on the porch hastened down the walk to meet her. Spying her from his window Jack called to her, with a grin at the Kid. 1 say Peg, how are you liking Regini by this time? Looking back over her shoulder, as she and Red walked down the street, she answered promptly, much to the satisfaction of Jack and the Kid, and the discomfiture of Red, Just wild over him. I get crazier about him every day, he ' s the grandest man lever saw. And to Red, Why, if I could just do anything half as well as he can play, I ' d never wish for anything else. Nobody else ever did anything half like he plays. Oh Red, I wish you could have seen and heard him. Red choked with indignation. Blamed if I do, he muttered to himself. And to Peggy, Time was, he sputtered, when you thought a little bit of what I could do on the ball field, and all my acrobatic stunts — you were at least in- terested in me, but now — Peggy cast a withering glance in his direction. Fred Jordan, you silly senseless piece, you ' re too easy. Honest did you think — Why I thought you un- derstood. You ' re no genius, I wouldn ' t feel natural to be around one all the time; you ' re a silly idiot but — and here Peggy stopped for breath. Red ' s face beamed. Oh! he said. He was satisfied.

Anne Carter. 30 1 Jl runes MONG the jolly Wesley Hall boys, there was a crowd of six, famous A for it ' s many pranks and practical jokes. It ' s ring-leader was Jack Mosely, a tall good-looking blonde. For some time, Mosely had been planning the meals at Wesley Hall. And such delicious dainties and home-like delicacies appeared from time to time that Mosely had won a big place in the hearts — not only of his own set — but of all the boys in the Hall. Now, Mosely ' s crowd had a stand-in with five jolly out-in-town n girls. And many were the camping trips, coon hunts, boating parties, and receptions those girls and boys planned together. And Mosley was always there, despite the fact that he was an odd man. One morning, a new course appeared on the breakfast menu — prunes — big, juicy, stewed prunes. They came again for lunch and for dinner — not only that day, but the next and the next. They kept coming. The boys tried to smile at Mosely in the same, sweet way, but an awful feeling of doubt and chagrin had crept into their hearts. What had they done to be fed on prunes like that? Was it a joke? At last, in despair, they related the situation to the girls, and implored them to come to the rescue. Now the girls knew what a great faculty Mosely had for getting red in the face. So they proceeded to prefix an adjective to his name, and without any forewarning they hailed him as Pruny Jack. This was too much for Mosley. He plead his case, declaring that his own crowd had caused it all — that they were especially fond of prunes, and, though they had been making pretenses to the contrary, they had in reality as ed for them. At this, the girls decided the adjective would apply well to the whole six. It seemed so rare an opportunity for teasing the boys, they took advantage of it and carried it on without mercy. Naturally, there followed the fiercest kind of a campaign. Both sides grew bold in their maneuvers. There was a rattle of small talk, some big guns of repartee, and a deadly glance of eyes. Just when the fun was at its height, a truce was called. Hoping to make it final, and at the same time, get good and even, the boys extended an invitation to the girls to come to Wesley Hall for dinner. Of course, the girls felt highly honored, and very graciously accepted. 302 In the meantime, Miss Brown, a visiting girl, had arrived, and Mosely was very much smitten. His attentions became so noticeable that there was promise of a double joke. The boys explained to the girls, that since all the prune strategy had been caused by Mosely, they had arranged to have an officer friend of theirs come in during the dinner, and arrest him on the charge of a sudden and decept- ive infatuation for Miss Brown. Not only had his love-making been deceptive, but mercenary; for he had heard that her father owned a prune-farm and by win- ning her favor, he hoped to get a corner on the prune market. The girls came gayly dressed in honor of the occassion, and full of glee in anticipating the joke of which poor Mosely was to be the innocent victim. Now, Mosely likewise, had an inward feeling of delight; for the boys had gone to him, and with his help, had enlisted the chef in a great plan to settle forever and for aye, the highly interesting, but much abused subject — prunes. The waiter, too, was on to the joke, but he managed to keep a straight face, as he served, bowing profusely through an elegant seven course dinner. The visitors ' table was decorated with plum-blossoms. The girls were beginning to laugh over this discovery, when suddenly, every Wesley Hall voice united in an unearthly yell: Honk! Honk! Get a hunch- Clear the track for the ' pruny ' bunch! Prunes! Prunes! Prunes! This took them somewhat by surprise, but they caught their breath, bowed and smiled their Thank-you ' s, and were soon seated and composed enough to make a second discovery: that the little individual dishes on the table were filled with prune caramels in place of bon-bons; and for blanched almonds, tiny salted kernels of prune seed had been prepared. While they were thinking what a richly unique and original idea it was, the waiter placed the first course before them, steaming bowls of prune bouillon. It was remarkable how much fun it afforded them, and they were surprised to find that they really enjoyed it. Next came prunes on toast, and the girls were amazed. They began to think something must be wrong. But save an occasional odd twinkle in Mosley ' s eye, there was no sign of anything out of the ordinary. When prune salad came as the third course, their amazement grew to wonder, and they assumed an attitude of what next? They felt that surely all this was but preliminary, and the boys would certainly give then something-to-ea soon. The something came with the fourth course in the form of dainty prune croquets. 303 Before the girls could realize just what was happening, the fifth and sixth courses appeared in rapid succession. The fifth was prune a la mode, the sixth — the fruit course raw prunes. There was quite an interval of waiting before the coffee course, which came last. How the boys enjoyed the girls ' embarrassment, chagrin, and threats of you just wait. When the smoking hot cups finally came, they stirred first with their spoons, thinking surely there would be a prune in each coffee cup. But finding none, they thanked the boys profusely for at least giving them something good to drin , when, Oh! the first sup revealed the fact that they were drinking hot prune juice. This capped the climax. Old Moseley fairly exploded wi th laughter. But suddenly he grew still, and turned very pale, as an officer touched him on the shoulder. There was a moment of awful quiet in Wesley Hall dining- room. Had not Mosely been so completely and so totally shocked, he might have noticed several boys cramming their napkins in their mouths, and holding their sides. The officer read out the charge in clear, ringing tones, so that every boy in the dining-room could hear and understand. As the wall rang with laughter, Mosely collasped with a grunt: Well, the joke ' s on me, after all. Mosely ' s trial was carried through a Kangaroo Court. The jury was made up of citizens and faculty men. They pronounced a verdict of Guilty. And poor Jack had to pay a fine of ten thousand — Prunes. Pearl Wallace. The Annex is a musical sight, For you can hear most any old night Violins and pianos, And eighteen sopranos, Making a noise that ' s a fright. 304 Wp InhuTstty IN A STORM Dark in the east hangs a purple cloud, And no ray of sun-light gilds thy walls; Only the blue storm-light palely falls Around thee, gloomy, dull, a ghostly shroud. Now in thy white towers moans aloud The rising wind ' s first breath as it calls, And echoes and re-echoes through thy hall, While without the trees are gently bowed. Then one long burning, jagged flash — Thou dost stand against the cloud as white As ivory on velvet — the crash Of other flashes follows, lurid light Draws vividly each feature. The lash Of rain and wind now blots all from sight. II AT SUNSET The East is dim with mystery of twilight. The fickle West remembers still the sun; Earth stands breathless, as some man who has done His greatest thing. O ' ershadowed by the night Yet catching still the glow, you greet the sight With pink walls, azure tinted windows, won From twilight and from sunset, like a nun ;05 You stand with dignity, showing me th ' right. 1 think I shall recall you ever so — Suffused with pink, and windows naming bright. Dear Alma Mater, this 1 surely know, When the last day is done and the night Gently o ' ershadows me; before I go I ' ll thank the one who armed me for the fight. Ill BY MOONLIGHT So fine in the storm, best, at time of sunset, Shows thy sweetest mood at another hour — The full May moon rains a silver shower Upon the dull slate ro of, how moonbeams let An air of romantic mystery, met Only in our dreams that are the dower Of half-forgotten times, have the power Of true enchantment, weave a filmy net From dreams and memories which can ensnare The faces, can make dance again the eyes, Can all once more with golden sheen the hair, And catch a voice ' s sweet note ere it dies — Can make us live again the old life there, Where now how soft the moonlight ' s beauty lies! 306 JV 3 Annex .Affairs HE first topic for our discussion is, of course, the matter of arising Tin the morning and preparing for the day ' s toilsome grind. Theo- retically, the Annex girl arises while it is yet night, sets to rights the ways of her household, works on her extra English parallel until the breakfast bell rings, when she goes quietly and sedately to par- take of nourishment; after -which, clad in purple and fine linen, she sallies forth to class, with every minute detail of her lesson worked up — the obscurest reference tracked to its lair and duly bearded in its den. So much for theory. Real life is — ahem! — of a different character. The Annex maiden awakens with a start on hearing the breakfast gong sound. (People usually awaken with starts, but the Annex girl start is a start toward that place where the many derive sustenance provided for the few — namely the dining room.) She hastily dons the garments which happen to be disposed, or deposed, about the room, usually finishing off with a raincoat to cover all defects, and a cap or veil to disguise the total absence of coiffure. Then hastily slapping a pow- der rag at her features, she skips hastily down the steps and glides modestly into an end seat in the dining room. After consuming all that kind friends have left, she hastens up stairs and endeavors in twenty minutes time to bring some semblance of order out of the hopeless chaos of her domicile. Then she makes herself not only presentable but in some measure attractive, so that she may perchance secure a date. And in the interstices of these occupations she works six Math problems or reads thirty-two pages of History. In spite of all this seeming disorder, the Annex girl is not without her lucid intervals. She does some wise things in her saner moments. She has a placard over her study table that says: DO IT NOW. Perhaps it is the fervor with which these words seem to be announced that causes the semi-demented state of the aforesaid Annex girl. At seven-thirty (which, by the way, comes earlier than seven-thirty any where else) the gong — that conscience, pulse, regulator, lash, goad, gag and in- sult of the inmates — that thing speaks. The dance is stopped and joy confined in parcels which are supposed to be securely tied with honor and sealed with awe for the Council. But presently, and nobody ever knows how it all starts, the little boxes fly open and the joy jumps out and, in the manner of joy, it flits from corridor to corridor and from wing to wing until there is sound of revelry 307 by night. The monsters appear and look unfavorably upon the joy and send it back to its proper little place. (Prof. Moore: The above is a figure of speech. In real life it means that the Annex girl gets to chasing around during study hours, gets too gay and the monitor comes out, calls her down and sends her home. P. S. — Do you grade figures ? ) Dress in the annex is a peculiar thing. One might make a psychological study of the way styles spread. For example : A maiden goes away to some metropolis — Lorena, McDade, San Saba, Granger or Eddy. She returns with a bow, shaped like — er — well, shaped different ; or else she has some peculiar heathenish something bound about her head. Or perhaps she comes back clad in one of those shades which are called new by their owner, with such a com- placent expression. Presto ! The line appears in bottle-shaped bows and wears rope on its head, or dons Mary Blue or Helen Pink or Hetty Green. But take her all in all, clad in a raincoat, with hair deranged in curl papers, or sitting with meekly folded hands whilst the campused week drags by ; or wearing the most hideous of maroon and lilac shades, she, the Annex girl, isn ' t the same, and that is enough for the most of mankind.

EVEREND CUTFIELD settled a little uneasily in his easy chair, under Ra rather reserved cross-examination from his bride, concerning the festivities of his Senior year at college. Of these she had ideas of her own, based on a two-years ' residence in the same college. Rev. Francis had never been a woman-hater, and at the co-ed College of Cedar View, where he had wooed the fair Carolyn, he was not averse to all the advantages offered by a splendid system of co- education. To the day of his death he will be thankful that Cedar View is thus liberal in its curriculum, and that they have spring down there every year; but on this occasion it behooved him to use his fluency in explanation. No, Carolyn, this Senior class was not exactly like those you saw there. Oh, the faculty did its part by the whole crowd, and it was much the largest and by odds the most interesting class in all the history of the institution. You never saw so many girls worthy of the Beauty Page, or so many sons of Anak, who could make the opposing line-up look like a hand car after the Limited had passed through it. But in spite of all this, Cupid had to hang his bow on a willow tree. Of course, you know the official atmosphere of Cedar View — prim old church school, plenty of mossy traditions and blue regulations, calculated to curb the undue activities of Daniel Cupid. But cf recent years the faculty has had an occasional convulsion of progress and hss modified these regulations somewhat. These hints of progress were carried through for the good of the school — that is, they tried to make regulations that the students would not be foiced to break, for there were other forces at work there than faculty regulations. But the Seniors did have privileges above the common herd. Especially were the ycung women blessed beyond those of other generations. But all this was purely concession on the part of the faculty, for it was so stated by them, but individually, most of them considered it good policy as well. Indeed, more than one professor has been heard to say that it was very beautiful to see the Alumni come back in pairs in after years, and that permanent partnerships between the old students help to insure the constituency of any college, etc. Cupid had made good use of the principle in former years, for although His Blindness laughs at locksmiths, he does not spend all his time in that diver- sion, but uses a good opportunity as often as anyone else. But in the class of 1 — he made a complete flunk. Not that he did not try, for he married off 309 ' friends ' at home right and left — had Senior privileges stretched to the last notch — got up a new system of girl-control, which was to eliminate undue competition from the lower classes. But it was all in vain. The class was doomed to hope- less confusion, for there came a division so bitter that not a single attempt at even a flirtation could be indulged in, even under the guise of class business. The schism began almost as soon as the class was organized, for a few of the more forward Senior boys, who were trying to work up to the point of affiliation with members of the lower classes, wanted to petition the faculty to extend Senior girl privileges to their intended ones. The other boys, not see- ing all the interests at stake, foolishly ratified this demand in an exclusive ses- sion, of which the fair Seniors got wind; and the tempest broke without further preliminaries. The faculty frost-bit this latest effusion of Senior disingenuity and forgot it, but the fair Seniors remembered. In fact, they did not try to forget. It was a triple offense to them — disloyalty to the class, an attempt to cheapen Senior privileges and, worst of all, willful blindness to the superior attractiveness of feminine Seniors. Be it understood, however, that these fair ones were not particularly anxious to attract those particular specimens of the man-tribe, for most of them had a rugged Freshman attachment on the rise. These maidens rose up in their righteous indignation and solemnly vowed that they would not talk to a masculine Senior, even over the telephone, and that as far as those boys were concerned the moon might as well go out, and Lovers ' Lane be devoted to the cultivation of turnips. You remember what a feature ' Grad ' parties used to be ? Well, with the help of the faculty and the hindrance of the rabble, they finally squeezed one into the calendar about the middle of the year — after a bunch of the boys had bought a hotel lunch and called it a ' Grad ' banquet, following which a few of the girls had met in caps and gowns to eat fudge and ' roast ' the boys — another ' class affair. ' Each faction, having relieved itself in this manner, fully eighty per cent came out to the one and only ' Grad ' party, at which the Freshman class was used to fill the depleted ranks. After due salutations from the Freshmen and villains of the Sophs, they all assembled at the girls ' dormitory. I use the term ' they ' advisedly, for no member of the class ever assumed the responsibility of using ' me. ' 1 never saw another party where each one seemed so intent on being disinterested. The program was proposals — proposals and then more proposals — but only a few were accepted even as a jest. The only pleasant reminiscence any of the class ever expressed of the party was the hazing they received from the rabble. But Cupid rose to defend his last ditch. He turned on Spring — not an ordinary Spring, but one especially designed for the purpose — a Spring which made staid old earth turn over a new leaf — a Spring whose wondrous land- scapes, balmy breezes, shimmering woods, profusion of flowers and wooing skies might have tempted the heavenly hosts from their blessed abode. But it 310 all was lost on the class of 1 — . Why, they had a little picnic — little because only a few of the class could lay their daggers aside long enough. But so far as I could learn they were all so distant toward each other that they couldn ' t even see the landscape from the same view point. After this failure Cupid inspired Frank Hart, who had scientific leanings, to make an analysis of the situation. It was discovered that sixty-eight and one- half per cent of the girls had attachments to objects in the lower classes; twenty per cent had affinities out of college, and the residual, eleven and one-half per cent to be accurate, showed no symptoms of foreign alliances, but were nobly contemplating careers of usefulness in the world. Forty per cent of the boys expected to make a touch-down in one of the lower classes ; twelve per cent had decided leanings away from school altogether ; ten per cent contemplated celibacy and the residual was found on the anxious bench awaiting developments. Cassandra Ogden designed an ornamental form of celibate vow, and it was reported it found signers as readily as German-chair Endowment notes had in former classes. Such steady boys as Thaddy Tuggar, the class president, and Hubert Southey, the Senior editor, will perhaps die grizzled bachelors. The king of the South Sea Archipelago will find no spots of face powder upon the frock coat of Jo. B. Hardwhack when he dons it after the feast ; and poor old ' Daddy ' Rogers will roll his own tamales in Darkest Mexico. Some of them have even begun to look aged and worn already. Most of the faculty praised the class highly and looked forward to great contributions to the educational work of America, but Professor Cupid graded the class of ' 1 — at zero— flat. EXODUS.

Enid burst into the room, waving a letter of many pages exultantly before her. She ' s coming! She ' s coming! this very day! Myra says so. 5 ie is coming? Who is she? The girls all spoke at once, snatching at the letter -without waiting for an answer. You all just sit down and be quiet, or I won ' t tell you at all. Enid clutched the pages threateningly and the noise subsided. Its from Myra Inness and she says her very best chum, Mary Brown, the one who was going East is coming here instead — decided yesterday and started immediately. She doesn ' t describe her — only says she is the finest, sweetest girl going, too cute for words, and that we must get her sure. Faye Lewis knows her, so the Beta Phis will give her the grand rush, but we mustn ' t let them get ahead of us this time. But when is she — Jane got no further. That ' s all Myra says, except that she ' ll be here sometime today or tonight, and for us to meet her. Also that she ' ll never forgive us in the world if Mary should be anything but a Xi Pi — It ' s almost time for the ten-ten south bound now, so we ' d better hurry and dress. Everybody be ready at ten-fifty sharp, when the wagonette comes. Hurrah for Myra and the Xi Pis! shouted Jane Conway, and the meet- ing broke up precipitately. Ten o ' clock found the Xi Pis fluttering visibly in the front vestibule. Ten- thirty found them still there and still no wagonette had come. I ' ll go phone the depot and find out if the train is late. Jane started to- ward the office but stopped short. Look! ' 1 she called excitedly, just look what ' s coming! A crowd of Beta Phis were crossing the campus, clustering around a tall dark girl who was evidently new. Faye Lewis was talking: Of course, you ' re tired now. The trip was hard. Why didn ' t you let us know sooner that you were coming? Just listen, girls, that must be her! In her excitement, Enid for- got that she was an English A student; Faye called her Mary and she came un- expectedly. Oh! what shall we do? I ' ll wager they heard us talking this morn- ing, thought they would steal a march on us while we weren ' t watching and went to the station. We ' ll have to get ahead of them some how. I just couldn ' t stand it if they got her. I ' ll tell you what, Ellen Brewster hopped up and down ecstatically on one foot — we ' ll kidnap her! Snatch her from their clutches bodily. After we once get her in our power we ' ll show her such a time she ' ll never want to get 3 1 3 away. Come! we ' ll have to hurry. Lets outline a plan of attack and decide on the details. The Xi Pis spent a busy hour till lunch, and by that time they were all smiling mysteriously — to themselves — though their faces were as innocent and open as the day. After lunch, contrary to their usual custom, they scattered in all directions, instead of gathering in a knot on the porch. Presently Jane, sauntering out of the front door, walked casually up to the group of Beta Phis. Mrs. Woodall wishes to speak to you a moment, — she nodded toward the new girl — and asked me to bring you. Throwing her arms around the girl ' s shoulders, she lead her toward the office, apparently without seeing the hostile looks of Faye and the Beta Phis. Mrs. Woodall was not in but would be back presently, so Jane, chatter- ing volubly, marshaled her unsuspecting victim toward her own door. Come in and visit me awhile. We have some cream and cake; and a lot of girls are crazy to meet you. Xi Pis, sitting in a circle on the floor, rose as they entered. Jane did the honors as hostess and introduced the girls in or- der, ending — And this is Mary, as you all know winking slyly at Enid. Mary was friendly and a voluble talker, the Xi Pis were in an excellent humor, and the fun ran high. 1 believe she likes us and has forgotten all about Faye and that bunch. We must keep her till dinner, Enid whispered to Jane under cover of the noise. You surely can work them, Jane, with that innocent expression. My! but I ' ll bet those Betas are hot. What if they ' d find out she is here and come after her? Shh! somebody ' s knocking now. I just know it ' s that horrid Faye Lewis. It ' s lucky you locked the door — come back Ellen! don ' t let her in! — but she was too late. Is this En — the girl at the door stopped short as she saw Enid ' s startled expression, and took in the scene on the floor. I beg pardon. I didn ' t mean to intrude, but I was told that Enid Allen roomed here. Myra Inness wrote her I was coming and said she would meet me when I got here. Enid started guiltily, but the girl continued. I am Mary Brown, you know and — Mary Brown! Jane sank back on the pillow but was instantly up again, remembering that she was hostess. Why, of course — come right in. I ' m Jane Conway and Enid Allen is here too. We didn ' t think you ' d come today or we ' d — The Xi Pis rallied bravely to her assistance. Enid raised her head weakly from the bed and sat up slowly as if dazed. Am I dreaming or am I really crazy? Two Mary Browns! which is which? 3 14 Jane Conway! it was Fay Lewis ' voice at the door ; What on earth did you do with my sister? Mrs. Woodall says she hasn ' t seen her and — She stop- ped abruptly at the sight of the girls on the floor — Well, I ' ll declare! Come, Mary, it ' s almost train time and mother ' ll have a spell if you don ' t get home tonight — Why, Jane, what is the matter? You ' re shaking all over. Jane collapsed weakly on the floor. Nothing, she said faintly — Nothing at all, only my head aches dread- fully and I feel sort of faint. Frances Clay, ' 14 life When I, a little child, began to climb this mountain steep, 1 saw no pitfalls in my path — my mother watch did keep. Once more I see her loving face exhibit joy or pain. As I laughed and frolicked; stumbled, fell and clambered up again. And now, as from these dizzy peaks — alone — 1 peer below, And see the pointed crags jut out, and the maddened torrents go; 1 think again of these days gone by, when I knew not the why, the how: A chilling shudder pierces me.

The train, that cold and wintry day Into Austin station rolled. The brakes did groan, the step was dropped, Mid bustle of young and old. But oh, not the motor ' s whistle shrill, Nor the peanut vendor ' s cry, Could rouse the lovers that, side by side, Naught could but each other spy. Oh, can they not see the crowds surge by, Hear the city ' s noise and din? Alas, one has her lashes down, The other ' s head tucked coyly in! The bell is ringing — oh, mercy, hear The wheels, first slow, sure grind! They are left — oh, tell us, fates above, Just why was Love born blind! 3 16 Oh, cursed be the hand that wakened thus Fond lovers from their dream! They start — the train is moving fast, Too late the warning scream. ' Oh, Nat! ' one sobbed, ' don ' t go, — your hat! ' The other tiptilted her nose, Said, ' Gene, ring the bell, oh goodness, This walk will ruin my clothes! ' In vain the bell rings, the lovers rage, Houses, blocks, the town slips by, — They are out on the plain, nor does the train Slacken till Sprinkle is nigh. Then down from the steps in woful plight, In the desert waste they stand, — Then down the track to Austin far, They stumble hand in hand. But neither they feel the Norther ' s blast, Nor the curl that forsakes their hair, Nor the rocks that scratch their shining shoes, Nor the natives ' startled stare. But they walk along, and all the miles Half in unconscious glee; For back in those distant ages past, Love was still blind, you see! 3 1 7 ®Ite ffrmtfrketrfpef ftljat Wasn ' t j H, sh, run for your life, girl. Prof. Jones saw us. Reckon he could tell who we were? He stopped and looked at me so hard n when he did I just stopped n stood so still, n oh-ee! but I ' m scared, Mae. Oh Mae, let ' s get t ' our room as quick as lightning. Sh-sh, don ' t let that Beatrice Smith hear us, girl. You know if she was to catch us out of our room, she would report us t ' the old Honor Council n we ' d end up by gettin ' campused for two or three weeks or by gettin ' twenty-five demerits. I know Prof. Jones is goin ' to slip round the other side and see if he can ' t slip up hehind us. Won ' t we fool ' m though, if he does? He ' ll find out we ' re mighty slick, n that ' s all. My goodness, Mae, can ' t you open that creaky old door without all that noise? It ' s enough to wake up the dead, and I know we ' ll catch it if we re caught. I tell you — . And with this they both piled into the bed and began to laugh, now that they were in their own room. Oh shoot, Annie, I want that handkerchief so bad, and seems like it would be so easy to get ; but — I saw it when it fell out of Robert ' s pocket. He had just told that stuck-up Miss King good-night and was just leavin ' the walk when it fell. Won ' t he feel like thirty cents with th ' three dropped off -when he finds out I ' ve got is handkerchief? He needn ' t think he ' s spitin ' me any by comin ' to see her. I ' m net so crazy bout ' m anyway, old hateful! I ' m not goin ' to speak to ' m anyway next time I see m. I don ' t see what he wants to corns to see that old girl for. Why Annie, she ' s as ugly as home-made sin. I never am go ' n ' t o have anything else to do with Robert Page. I ' m go ' n ' to send his old pin back to im tomorrow an — . Oh! I know what let ' s do. Let ' s go down and get Miss Mayhew to get it for us. I don ' t think there ' s anybody in the sick room now and we can slip around as far as the corner with her, and when she gets it, we can slip back up here in a jiffy, and Miss Gray won ' t even know we are gone. Sh-sh, I hear Miss Gray now. I ' ll hold the door open and when I tell you to, well come! Come on now, quick! Annie and Mae slipped on tiptoe down to the sick room, where they found Miss Mayhew engaged in doing crochet. Yes, my dears, it will be the greatest of pleasure to me to get it for you. Why shouldn ' t it? You know you are my little girlies and you are as nice little girls as there are in this hall. You know I never saw a nicer set of girls any- where, my dears, than we have in the hall. Thus Miss Mayhew rattled on as they slipped cautiously around the building. The girls were trembling all over for fear Prof. Jones would hear her and catch up with them. They were getting close to th = corner when 318 Sh-sh Miss Mayhew. There is Charlie Jones comin ' up the walk. Be quiet or he ' ll see us. Oh-oh-oh! He has seen us. Now we ' ll catch it good and heavy. Charlie, who was carrying a package under his arm, stepped from the walk and strolled leisurely over to where the girls were crouching. Well of all things! What are you doing out here girls? Anything I can help you do ? Oh Charlie, don ' t tell your father, Oh, please don ' t. Naw, I won ' t tell ' im. Now as the girls saw the handkerchief near by they knew that it would soon be in their possession and that all they had to do was to get back to their room safely. Charlie, I want that handkerchief over there on the walk. Robert Page was up here to see that girl that ' s visitin ' Edith Day and when he left, he drop- ped his old handkerchief. 1 don ' t like him any more but, 1 — 1 want his hand- kerchief for a souvenir, you know. Why sure I ' ll get it for you said Charlie with a look of surprise. Ha-ha came from him as he returned. I ' m afraid your eyes have de- ceived you and he handed Mae a piece of white paper. But, Mae, Robert told me, when he came back to town just now, to give you this, so, I guess you ' ll have a souvenir after all. Oh, bless his little heart! He knows how I love candy. The dear!

This is rather a bold assertion to make, but it is nevertheless true, as is evidenced by the fact that he gets more confidential notes and letters than Prof. McGinnis and Dr. Cody combined. Some of these little notes wax ex- tremely confidential, and the only reason why he does not answer them is be- cause he has not got the time. At our very earnest request he has turned over the following representative types to be published: ' Prof. Tweedy: — Please excuse me from Chapel after this, as the girls keep looking at me.

Bill Vaught ' s regular speech to his hostess on the Glee Club trip: Lady, there are two things I ' m really sensitive about; two things you must be careful not to accuse me of, for they ' re absolutely not true. One is that I talk too much and loudly, and the other is that my mouth is unduly large. It is painful to me for any one to make any such evident blunder. One day Miss Lilian Smith received a base ball ticket from Mr. Vincent. She was much puzzled to know -what to do with a nickel that came in the same envelope. She learned afterwards it was to buy a sack of peanuts at the game. Miss Patrick: — Fanny, I don ' t see how you ever get your nerve up to the point of carrying on a conversa- tion of any length with Mr. Harrell. I can ' t even get him off his dignity enough to let me say good morning to him. Miss McFarland:— His dignity is not what im- presses me so much.

The features of the first game pulled off at the Annex campus were wild pegging, few hits, and many bonehead plays. There were some sore ones the next day. Nervy Nat is still holding his own. Has been up (to the Annex) fourteen times, got twelve hits and worked the squeeze once. Stokes has at last won his game. He is a consistent as well as a persisting player. Has lots of pep but was hit for a homer by McKay. Sam Stones arm was reported to have been out of place at the Alamo picnic. It did not seem to bother him as he shows up in good form. C o.T o I o £ y On a fielder ' s choice, Capt. Ayres tried to throw Hopkins out at third, but the runner was too fast for him and was called safe. Piatt went to first on the hit. Now Capt. is in a hole with two on bases. Robbins was caught off of first in the Chicago game. He was trying to get the signal from a fan in the grandstand. Who is ab le to deliver the pinch hit off of Southpaw Dulaney? Jack hits, but not into safe territory. Well-done Chappy, you are a nifty little player. You have hit safe, now run your bases well. Lucile Holt (handing her suit case to the banana man and getting into his wagon): Please take me to the station in time to catch the Katy going South. 825 When it came to the show-down, Terry Moore was holding only one Queen.

Clyde Turk, Capt Fatty Woodly was benched for the rest of the season soon after he signed up. He would not report for practice. Several Preps have been called out on account of cutting bases, disputing the decisions of Crip and not conducting themselves properly in the club house. Happy Sheffy is going good now.

Listen, dear students, the Muse will tell Of a story known to some quite well; In the Hall of Mood, in 1911, And hardly a prep as old as seven Will forget this famous place and year. One night when all had gone to bed — The time was half-past leven — The monster got down off his horse. With legs not less than seven. Awake! awake! my faithful lad, I ' ve got a job for you, We re going to make some fellows sad, I ' ll tell you what to do. He tied his horse to the kitchen door, As though he ' d come to stay; Just then he heard an earthquake snore. Which made his black steed neigh. Go through this hall from end to end, And bring me every jack That you can find in this dark hole — The names are in the back. Be still, quoth he, You ' ll wake the cook, And stepped into the hall, Wish 1 could find that register book — They make them too darn small. The prep was scared, so up he got, And tiptoed from his stall; He worked the place from bottom to top- He surely made a haul. Now that ' s quite rude I must declare, I know now what I ' ll do; And O, ye kids, you ' d best beware Ere I get through with you. The monster sat down on the bed, He looked at all the books; He took down all the names and said: Here is a list of crooks. With these bold words, he strode upstairs, Where many sleepers lay, Who not long since forgot the cares That leave with light of day. They are the boneheads of this school; Just watch what I tell you. As sure as everyone ' s a fool They 11 soon be swellheads too! He turned the knob and walked right in — It was the room of a prep, Whom studying hard had made quite thin Who hardly ever slept. These words he said; into the air On wings he quickly flew — You ' ll find in this same book somewhere A picture of his crew. 327 -) U _ J £ 0( £ I tJ % ifl ?

Whereas our people formerly, i. e. in Dan ' s day, forsook the care of the body for the development of that greatest of all man ' s gifts, the mind, and perfected its functions with the assimilation of Dan ' s Master-Wheel, his Guaranteed Cook Book, his Veterinary Surgeon ' s Index and Guide to Periodical Ailments of the Human Mind, and others equally well known to the literary world, the tide has now turned and on the same door step where Dan formerly exhorted the people to care for their brains, Brewer ' s persuaders are telling the very same people that the brain cannot work without food and that an aluminum coffee percolater and waffle iron, or one of his magic tea pots, guaranteed to cook an entire meal within itself, is much more to be desired than a book costing the same amount. Perhaps that accounts for the mournful expression now existing on Dan ' s one time smiling countenance.

Lea of the Georgetown Militia suffered cruel and heart-breaking treatment at the hands of J. D. Whitcomb of the S. U. Brass Band. The following are the details of the case: Over a month ago Sergeant Lea made a date with Miss Anne Carter for the open house tonight. Having utmost confidence in Miss Carter ' s memory and in her anxiety for the date, Mr. Lea said nothing more of the date, but tonight appeared at the usual time. But, in the meantime, Mr. Whitcomb asked for a date for the same occa- sion. Miss Carter told him of Mr. Lea ' s date, but said she was not sure that he remembered it. She told Whitcomb the date was his if Mr. Lea had not sent word to her by five o ' clock this afternoon. As he sent no word, she told Whit- comb that he could come. So he came, too. Consequently complications and conflict. Mr. Lea insisted the date was his and proceeded to make good his claim. But before the evening was half gone Mr. Whitcomb came in and ran Lea away, thus depriving him of half his date. Mr. Lea was very downcast at his disgrace. There is much excitement among the Annex girls and they have, in a mass meeting, decided that no date shall be given more than two weeks ahead of time and that the man with the date must inform the girl twice every day as to whether he intends to fill the date. J r ottcc There was another club organized at S. U. this year, but it was unwilling to have its picture made for the Sou ' wester. This was the Anti-Porcupine Haircut Club.

Dr. Hyer said: I ' ll never set an example for such a hideous fashion. Prof. Nichols: I don ' t mind a fly slipping up on my head occasionally and getting a shock; but I am too tender-hearted to allow one to be transfixed by a hair of mine. Prof. Gray: In my hairs ' day, such a custom would have been consid- idiculous. Luther Stone: I would look like ' Heck ' with my hair reduced to such an absurd shortness. Michael O.

Be sure to read the following testimonials: Dear Mr. Hall : I can never say enough in praise of your method. It is wonderful. When first 1 entered Southwestern, I fell in love with every girl who smiled at me, but after trying your treatment for nearly two years, 1 have reached the stage of total indifference to all girls save one. I will be glad to recommend your marvelous cure to any and all fellow sufferers from this dread- ful malady. Sincerely, BEN E. Neal. T ear Mr. Hall : We, a committee of influential citizens of our community, wish to thus pub- cly thank you and testify to the great good done our people by your wonderful remedy. jim harrell Dad Robinson Doc Crutchfield Happy Sheffy Bob Brewer 334 JV § ' clteiutlc — ffmurt CmutcU ' s Jlau The young ladies adopted an honor system at the Annex, and in order to see its effect upon both boys and girls, a record was kept the first day, by the following schedule: FRIDAY A.

Yes, madam, I am just a college boy, trying to make enough money this summer to take me back to school next year. I was a Freshman at the great Southwestern University last session; and, believe me, it was just luck that got me the privilege of selling these world famous stereoscope pictures, taken at that institution. Besides the money I get from the sale of the pictures, the University pays me at least sixty-five cents a week for advertising. If you will only allow me a few minutes of your very valuable time — Oh, thank you, I felt sure you would be interested. You just hold the scope to your eyes and I will place the views for you. Hello; this is a series entitled, Views from the Grand Stand. View No. I . This first view is of a champion butting contest, called a football game. Those little butters are trying to keep from being run over by the big butters from Southwestern. That collossal butter over there behind is Capt. Headrick. No, he ' s not afraid — he ' s just like a fighting billy goat, just backing off to get a good start. That ' s some butter standing over there near the end — thats Newton Keene. View No. 2. This view is entitled, Sideline Statuary. Well, they ate rather human looking, but they are made of the hardest stone. The atmosphere conditions most conducive to their vivid appearance are those in which the team is losing out. If the boys are being run over and the other team is on the winning streak, this famous statuary stands out in bold relief. Nothing on earth can jar it. And the peculiar thing about this artistic array of carved beauty is, that it undergoes peculiar illusion at times, these being more prevalent at those times in which the home team makes touchdowns. Credulous people have as- serted that these statues have been known to move, in times of such stress. Once a member of the team thought he had heard a yell from their rigid ranks, and was put off the next day on a charge of preposterous credulity. View No. 3. This view shows you a majestic old oak, standing in the cor- ner of the Athletic park. It is a direct descendant of the world famous Charter Oak, and early in its existence was a conptemporary of the Old Oaken Bucket. This tree was planted twenty-six years ago by the famous John Coffee, then Cap- tain of the Southwestern University ball team. John wanted a shade from to to watch the future generations play the national game, for his keen insight showed him that the ten cent rubber balls of his time must give way to larger and more inert spheres. The old oak now serves as a grand stand for Judge Makemson and Pro. Amos and to entangle the ball so that Capt. Sam Ayres can knock some runs. View No. 4. See that old sport driving in; the one with a surrey and a little red pony — no, it ' s not a Shetland. That ' s Sir John Rivers Allen and he ' s one corking fan. He ' s an old ex-player and used to hold down a very rotund position in right field. He was a promiscuous batter in his day, being able to hit the ball every pop, some pops. View No. 5. This shows the modern baseball game in full blast. That guy out in the middle is not one legged — he ' s just fixing to disgorge an out drop. The boys call him Cap. and he ' s subject to those kind of distortions. Those two 336 creatures just behind him are not naturally bald, but nature deprived them of their cranial hirsuteness as a punishment for over-study. The motley array over to the left is a free for all fight. The valiant knight in the shirt sleeves is Coach Arbuckle, trying to keep a bunch of hoodlums away from the Baylor coach. View No. 6. Those fierce looking figures patrolling the fences belong to the notorious Georgetown Rifles. They put five niggers off the fence in one day and made one quit looking through a knot hole. It usually required someseve.i or eight of these stalwart heroes to preserve order among the turbulent masses that attend the ball games. The Athletic Asscciation rose up, as one man, and demanded protection which the militia very reluctantly gave. But the company was organized at the urgent request of President Taft, when he learned that Ted Roosevelt ' s train would pass through the city. Though the president feared greatly for the safety of his illustrious predecessor, the company averted any disaster by forming a hollow square of 1 A acres in area, through which the train was able to proceed. View No. 7. In this view, the camera was turned on the grand stand. This is a roost in which the young ladies are made the recipients of pop corn and goobers. See those frenzied countenances scattered about? These have a spec- ial commission to yell rotten every time the umpire gives a decision. See that pair with their heads jammed clear up into the roof of that parasol? That ' s a practically wedded couplet, one of which hails from the Annex. They come to all the games and inquire the results when it ' s all over. View No. 8. That strawberry blonde, sorrel maned, hungry looking guy on the bench is Omer Ogden Mickle. He is six feet, nineteen and one-half inches in height and has played sky-ball from his youth up. Marguerite Skeen: Gee! I ' d hate to be Nello Steele. Mary Belle: Why, because she looks so much like an overgrown baby? Marguerite: No, but she ' s got such a bloomin ' hard name. Miss Brownfield (admiringly): Mr. Simons is so dignified. Miss Carter: Yes, isn ' t he? Never see him go down stairs but what I wish he would trip himself and fall sprawling. 1 don ' t believe he could ever get into position again. 337 Jffrom tlje fljmne-si clunks Wicm |Jnint Georgetown, Texas, September 27, 1910. Dear Sis: I got to this thriving city about two days ago, away late in the night sometime, for that Katy Flyer didn ' t fly much when I was around. There were some sleepy-headed guys, with Y. M. C. A. stuck on them, standing around to see what was happening. It means Young Men ' s Christian Association, and they seem to cut some ice around here, but I don ' t know where they roost. They seem to be right jolly boys, but they say some of them are preachers. There is a Y. W. C. A., too, that ' s the girls ' , and they are alright. There seems to be something up between the two crowds. It seems to me that some of those guys are trying to get their brand on some of the W herd and some of them didn ' t look like they ' d mind the change much. But, Sis, you just ought to see the crowd of folks at this school, and some are the greenest looking things that ever escaped from the woods. I ' ll tell you, some of the teachers ain ' t much for looks either. My, that old granger that teaches history, he ' s a bird. I ' d love to get him out in the brush after some bad steers, he ' d find out who knew some things. Why, he actually made out like our school ain ' t much punkins. He thinks there ain ' t any history known except here and at some nllyated that he has picked out here and there. We may not be right up with him on history, for they have a few more books here, but I ' d just like to see their desks alongside ours. Their desks look like the billy goats and bull pups had gnawed on them seven years; then they were set out in the back yard seven years, where all the bucking ponies and mule colts could run across them, then the bad boys whittled on them till they wore their frog-stickers out and turned them over to these chaps from fillyated schools, who can take it out of the whole bunch when it comes to leaving their tracks on things. But that little sport that teaches English, he ' s the limit — he played like he thought I ' d spent my days reading novels. The old hoss that teaches Algebra and Geome- try seemed right agreeable, but he is off on the examination biz, [just like the rest. I had a whole penful of trouble about my trunk, but they didn ' t get off with mine, no siree. About the time I hit the ground a red-faced Irishman tried to get me to give him my check and telephone to him afterwards. I wasn ' t as green as he thought, by some, but I didn ' t let on that I knew his game. He got some other fellows ' checks, but that ' s their loss, not mine. I knew the railroad would be responsible for the trunk until I could get some safe way to get it to Mood ' s Hall. We stumbled up to the Hall in the dark and run over a wheel- barrow out in a pile of rocks and charcoal and I spotted it to bring my trunk up on. I guess I wasn ' t in a very good humor after sleeping on a bare mattress and eating a breakfast of scorched light-bread, mush and cold coffee, but some of those boys did act punky when 1 got there with my trunk. They all stood around and let me drag it up stairs by myself. They seemed to think it awful funny to see me sweating like a nigger at election. There was a windlass on the inside gallery, but it is painted red and the sport that owns it thinks so much of it that he keeps it locked. I guess niggers had been using that wheelbarrow, for I got black on my hands and it got onto my face, for all my handkerchiefs 3 38 were in my trunk, but I had to rub it off in cold water before I could go to town to get some soap. I don ' t like this school. The teachers are all hypocrites, for they seem awful glad to see you the first time and don ' t pay any attention to you after- wards. I ' ve heard folks talk of Dr. Hyer, as if he was the pure, unadulterated IT, double thickness, but he don ' t seem to be a bit friendly, just keeps his eyes shut like he was mad with somebody. I don ' t know how many I have heard say they couldn ' t find him high nor low. There ' s a good many folks here that 1 don ' t understand — they seem to get around in little bunches and plot meanness. 1 heard about all the college tricks before 1 came so I ain ' t afraid for myself, but some of these greenhorns are going to catch it. 1 heard one of those bunches talking something about barbs the other day. They quit when I stopped to listen. 1 guess some poor devil has got to get cut up in the wire, but it is about the roughest trick I ever heard of. I ' ve helped to snare several with ropes, but when it comes to barbed wire, I say it ' s the limit. I wrote to Evelyn yestersay. I wish I could see her. There ain ' t a girl in forty miles of this rock heap that can hold a light to her. Tell her I said that. Would write more but I ' ve got to go to dinner — they act so short about it here, the blamed hogs eat up everything when a fellow is a little late. Same as ever, your brother, Emerald P. Green. P. S. Say, I widh you ' would give Evelyn that picture of me with the steer roped. She seemed to like it right fierce and I promised to let her have it. I sure wish I could see her and you all tonight.

Scene I — Room in the Annex. Jane — (throwing down her pen) There — there ' s the last one, and the lights winking. Wake up, Nell, and help me lick the stamps. Woe is me! I spent my last quarter on them, and I ' m starving now. Nell — (sleepily) How many, anyway? Jane — Twenty-five perfectly cordial invitations. Don ' t they sound sweet: ' The Senior Class or— ' Nell — Well, that ' s enough of sweetness; it doesn ' t mix well with glue. Why in the world are you sending this to Miss Mehitabel Shaw, Pokestown, Va.? You know she can ' t possibly come. Jane — Come? You crazy little Junior! Why, I ' d die if one of the twenty-five came. Imagine old Prof. Smith leading me down to the auditorium as his ex-High School star ; or Cousin Anna with the twins. Come ! The invites are strictly and only for presents. Comprenez-vous ? You stuck that stamp on crooked. Cousin Mehitabel ' s awfully precise. Nell — And what present may the dear precise old soul be planning to send you ? Jane — Oh, nothing less than a diamond or some willow plumes. She ' s pretty rich, I think, and was crazy about mamma when they were girls. I ' m wild to see what she ' ll send. Nell — And all these other people ? They have the oddest names and live in the queerest places. Jane — Family friends, my dear ; just the kind to send presents. If I get more than six fans I ' ll give you one. And silk hose ? I ' ll cook in them all summer. Nell — I hope they ' ll all come — the people I mean. I ' ll never get this glue off my tongue. Do you suppose the McKee ' s have any filtered water? I ' m scared to drink this after Prof. Reedy ' s lecture. Jane — Mercy ! There go the lights. Grab your curlers and don ' t get mine. I hope Cousin Mehitabel ' s digestion ' s good at present. Wouldn ' t Jack stare at a diamond ring? He ' d think — oh, well — goodnight. ACT II. — Scene I , Same Room. Nell — Jane, I hear a wagon ; it ' s the express from the 3:40, I know. Run and see — there at the window. Jane — You old humbug, it ' s nothing but the wagonette. Guess Willie Haire ' s been home again. Nell — Oh, I was just fixed for a deluge of boxes. Do you suppose they keep Huyler ' s in Virginia? Cousin Mehitabel might — . Jane — Shut up ! I ' ve got to practice this speech. Do you know, Nell, I ' m scared to death. The only comfort is, there ' s not a soul coming to see me. I ' m almost thankful Bobby took the mumps, so mamma couldn ' t come. It ' s so blissful to have the whole blessed time with you and Jack and no exasperating company. Who ' s that coming down the hall ? Walks louder than Marguerite. Voice — (door opens) My, the child lives high up. Janie, dear — . 344 Jane — Cousin Anna and — and — . Cousin A. — Yes, yes; it ' s just the twins, and your Cousin Horace, and your Aunts Tibbie and Lena — we met them at Granger. I just said to Horace yesterday: ' We can go over to Janie ' s for next to nothing, and I ' m sure since she sent us such a sweet invitation she ' d rather see us than have a gold-handled parasol. 1 That ' s what your Cousin Horace had set his heart on. So here we are. Cousin T. — Janet, you ' ll take cold with all these windows up. Yes, I ' m just worn out, and thought I ' d come up and rest a spell. We left in such a hurry we couldn ' t get your present, but — Aunt L. — But Jane just want s to see us, Tibbie. Jane — Of course ! I ' m just delighted. Oh, this is my room-mate, Nell Sayers ; excuse me. Oh, it won ' t hurt him to fall out the window, Cousin Tibbie; the ground ' s — er — soft. There ' s the powder — I mean the water. Please, this is too good of you all. Scene 2 — Avenue. Cousin A — Everybody here? Cousin H — There ain ' t but fifteen since Mrs. Sanders and Prof. Smith came. I declare, Anna, it seems to me there ' s just too many of us for Janie. Cousin A. — The idea ! Why Janie, aren ' t you glad we are here to take you to town ? You couldn ' t go by yourself, could you ? I know how strict they are in these schools. I ' ve read lots about Patty; and such. Jane — No — yes — of course I ' m glad ; I ' m crazy about going to town, (aside) I feel like Miss Knowles leading the Annex line. Prof. S. — Jane, have you taken much English up here ? I ' ll never forget what a time I had making you like Pope ' s Rape of the Lock. You kept insist- ing that it was ridiculous. Jane — But I ' m a model pupil now. Nell, who in the world is that com- ing ? A negro carrying her suit-case. And in Georgetown. Look ! Nell — It might be — be Cousin Mehitabel. Hasn ' t everyone else come ? Jane— Oh . Cousin M — Jane Walton, your own mother ' s child ! Her very eyes and ears. Jane— Cousin Mehitabel ! Cousin M. — How did you know me ? I ' ve had such difficulty in finding you. The hack at the station was so rough — men, you know, my dear. But it ' s worth it all to see you. I was going to send you a diamond. I ' ve been saving the money many years, my dear, but your sweet invitation — I couldn ' t disap- point you. Nell, (aside) — Oh, I say, give me a fan. ACT III— Scene I —Roof of the Annex, 1:30 a. m. Jane, (crawling up thru the trap-door) — Nell, are you there? Nell — Yes, I ' m ' there, ' but don ' t ask me how. Come on ; these stars make you sleepy. Jane — Sleepy ? I never want to see a bed again. I ' ve just made, stolen, borrowed, pulled down and piled up twelve of them. Nell — Sorter like ' hospitality hath murdered sleep ' this time. Jane — I ' ve got the whole frat. snoring up in the hall, while I ' ve borrowed s 345 their rooms. They were very sisterly about it, but they refused to let us make the eighteenth in the hall. Nell — Its better up here anyway. You can be alone, alone — all, all alone on a — Jane— Shut up ! Nell — Never mind, dear; I ' ll send you a Grad. invitation next year. Jane — I ' ll come. Give me a pillow to wrap around my neck. My throat ' s hoarse now, and this night air — and that speech ! Nell — Ouch ! What kind of curlers, pray ? Jane — Hairpins. Did they scratch ? The twins cast my electrics down the fire escape. But this dampness will make my hair all sticky anyway. Noth- ing matters — . Nell- But- Jane — But one thing — Nell— Well ? Jane — Do you suppose — dare suppose by any rash guess — Jack thinks I well ever talk like Cousin Anna, or fuss like Aunt Tibbie, or look like Cousin Mehitabel, or— good-night. Curtain. At one stop on the trip made by the Glee Club, Windy J. sang a master- ful solo in that dark brown, well-done voice of his. The deluded audience very vociferously called for an encore, which was rendered with all ponderosity. After the conclusion of the show, one sympathetic old man came forward with an apology. He thought it very thoughtless in the crowd to force a man to re- peat such a performance when it evidently cost him so much pain. Dr. Allen: (lecturing in Economics A) When I first came here I got into some hot water. Startled Student : Why, Dr. Allen ! Two of our Academ. Grads. have taken up simplified spelling, but their ideas don ' t accord, for Snipes wrote it valuble on the board in Education, and Hall, standing beside him, wrote it valueable. Prof. Amos says his German I class is very original. For instance: Mary McLean was reading along and translated the words that meant from sex to sex as from bad to worse. Then our poetical friend, Wilbur Wright, insisted upon a rhymed translation that Keiner der viere steckt in dem Thiere means None of the four remain in the door. Fanny Harris: C — says he may come back next year and take his B. A. Miss Mc: I should think he would go to a law school, he is so fat and lazy looking. Fanny: Oh, I don ' t think h ' ed make a good lawyer at all. He ought to be a doctor, because he ' s so tender-hearted and gentle. You can tell that by the light in his eyes.
