White Miss Mary Treat THE Students ' Association, which comprises the entire student body of the University proper, controls the Honor Council, the Megaphone and the Sou ' wester and directs the actions of the student body as a whole. It was first organized when the Honor System was inaugurated at Southwestern, but later established the Megaphone which it has successfully directed during the six years of its existence. Last year it relieved the Athletic Association of the responsibility of publishing the Sou ' wester and this venture, like the pre- ceding one, has proven quite satisfactory. □ ll COUNCIL OF HONOR El m 12 [ TOB ID □ The Council of Honor H.

Nelms (3) Miss Mary Helen Stanford (5) Freshman Class Representatives K. E. Barnhart (6) Miss Allene Carraway (7) SEVERAL years ago Southwestern University adopted the Honor System by which cases of dishonesty on examina- tions or in recitations and offenses against the Student Body are referred to the Honor Council. The system has worked suc- cessfully, although there have been but few occasions which required its attention. The Council acts in co-operation with the Faculty; it is controlled by the Students ' Association which elects the president from the Senior Class, but the other mem- bers are chosen by the various college classes. 13 Woman ' s Self-Government Association Frances Clay OFFICERS President Hazel Barnes Secretary- Treasurer Woman ' s Honor Council Fannie Dobie 1 ... .

An important part of the Self-Government Association is the Woman ' s Honor Council which attends to the discipline of the Woman ' s Buildingstudents. 1 4 WOMAN ' S HONOR COUNCIL E 15 m lii iliSiiKiis «§ m m ED IDE Upper Picture-GEORGETOWN in 1880 Lower Picture-GEORGETOWN in 1912 m. □ 1® 16 n §ig®i p M®gi@0.; mm 3 ■■ 17 pmv -qEZ ;:;:■ ■: ' ,,;. :■■ ' ■ ' ' ' ' ' . ■■■■ .:; ' ' ■ p.

This Committee selects, with the limited means it has the assurance of, the best and most attractive Lyceum Course that it is possible to secure. And especially did the Committee consider quality and not quantity in choosing this year ' s course. More was spent for the attractions this season than last, even though one number less was given. The course for 1912-13 was very popular and as a whole it pleased everyone. It afforded pleasure for those who could enjoy an occasional smile; it afforded enter- tainment for those who wished to be entertained; it gave joy to those who loved music; and it gave instruction to those who sought knowledge. The attractions for the season were as follows: The Music Makers; The Kellogg- Haines Singing Party; The University Girls; Jacob A. Riis; John Kendricks Bangs; and the S. U. Glee Club. The balance in the treasury, after the expenses of the course have been met, is to be divided proportionately among the four societies. The Lecture Committee this year is composed of the following: (Sec picture on preceding ftage) 1. J. B. Milliken, Alamo. 2. Hazel Barnes, Alethean. 3. Mary Martha Bishop, Alethean. 4. S. P.

Delightful hospitality was accorded them at every stopping place, and their programs received every- where unstinted applause. After singing to crowded houses at Cameron. Navasota, Huntsville, Rusk, Nacogdoches, Jacksonville, Athens, Corsicana, Sherman, Cle- burne and Temple, the Glee Club was welcomed home by a large and appreciative audience on the night of April 28th. But the members can attest the fact that their success came not of itself. Their tour was preceded by long four-a-week re- hearsals which tested their mettle as well as their voices. But the result was shown in the ease and finish with which they rendered an unusually difficult program. Credit is due to Prof. Shaw for his excellent training and to H. D. Woods for his conscientious planning and management. □ 5 4 Girls 1 Choral Club OFFICERS Frances Clark Lillian Clark Mrs. B. C.

So said the Scotchman, singing behind his plow. A million voices took up the refrain — the voices of simple folk and unlearned, of them that wear the coarse garments of toil, that in the sweat of the face eat bread, that live in rude houses, that are horny-handed with toil: these took up the glad shout: A man ' s a man for a ' that. ' ' Not so! said the king in his palace and the lord on his manor. Not so! said the fool in silks that others had woven, and the knave who drank wine that others had forced from the winepress. Not so! Crowns, titles, priv- ileges, fine houses, authority — take away these things, and what would we be? A man ' s a man by all these! So the million voices prevailed not. But in that million-voiced chorus was a new faith, and over the sea was a new land. To that new land came the toilers to toil and to sing. And now from farm and workshop and factory and school comes the shout of the toiler at his task and his children at school. And their shout is the triumphant faith of democracy: A man ' s a man for a ' that. Traditions are chameleons. They change their color but they are chame- leons still. In our democratic commonwealth, in our own loved alma mater, aristocratic traditions of privilege survive — they breed, they multiply, they fatten and grow strong. But now sounds forth the voice of the sturdy Barbarian, to join the multi- voiced chorus of democracy that rises up from the ranks of toil: A man ' s a man for a ' that. Not so! says the Greek in college; not so! Our fathers ' wealth, our social standing, the political power of our dear fratres and the wall of exclu- siveness by which we keep out the common herd — take away these things and what would we be? A man ' s a man by all these! And now comes the sturdy Barbarian to break down the wall, to set up the new standards, and to lead democracy into the student stronghold of privilege, so that the gleaners of knowledge as well as the sons of toil may join the multi-voiced chorus of democracy: A man ' s a man for a ' that! w.

An in- dignant Freshman pulls gun on rhining committee (see illustra- tion) — a little matter which is to □ El m 104 kindle a great fire later in facul- ty meeting, and inspires that worthy assembly to take under its wing the grads, and also to insure a satisfaction of any cur- ious underclassmen ' s desire for knowledge of grad social events at least for a month in advance. 10th.

If you get a microscope you can discover that the picture in the middle is an evidence that for a few moments at least we were giving State trouble. McHenry is carrying the ball around left end.

On the strength of his heroism a quarrel is patched up, and everything is lovely. 28th. Many journey to Austin and see State wallop Arkansas 48-0 on Turkey Day. At home, the Epworth League has a pic- nic, and the Pi K A ' s a party. 30th. Miss Howre n ' s girls make an excursion to the Caves, Mr. and Mrs. Kidd chaperons.

Frank Nelms presents mas- cot to Kappa Alpha Fraternity. Popularity of K. A. from his first appearance increases until no social or religious gathering is entirely complete without his presence.

BARCUS, Celery Guard Contestant with Harris for the title of Lightest Guard in Texas Foot Ball but ev- ery inch a nervy, heady man, worked quite as well on offense as defense. Barcus was shifted from guard to half-back in one game on account of his scrapping qualities, but somebody decided that he was best as guard. Wonder why? F. A. BOUTWELL, Bottle Full Back Glaze and the Southwestern coaches thought that Boutwell should have had All- Texas full-back position but others whose vote counted, seemed to be blind to his abil- ity. ' Tis true Boutwell played by spurts and possibly this is where some found fault. He was shifted from Tackle position to back field on account of his speed and tackling ability. In the game with Texas Boutwell made at least one-fourth of the tackles. Too bad he is a senior. J. W. DAVID, ' Tubby Tackle David played the same old game from the beginning to the end of the season. He could be depended upon to hold down his position against most opponents but in some cases a bean-flipper could have been used to good advantage. In spite of size and build we expect him to gain much speed be- fore the season of 1913 opens. □ 123 Foot Ball Personnel— Continued B. S. GRAHAM, Chebe Quarterback Chebe says playing quarter is a bigger job than running the Standard Oil Company. But he does it pretty well. He almost al- ways has a stunt ready for each game — if not, he got his publicity just the same. The Fort Worth Star Telegram picked him for All Southwestern quarter ! ! ! A. R. HENDERSON, Hendy Center Henderson ' s work at center was a feature of all the later games of the season, and he secured more favorable comment from those who picked the All Texas than any other Southwestern man. His work in the Baylor game was especially good, and contributed materially to our victory over the Baptist team. N. E. KEENE, Newt End Newt distinguished himself from the crowd at least twice during the season. Once was when he rode his motor-cycle into a taut barb wire at a speed of about ninety miles per. The second was when he grabbed a fumble and beat it for the Poly goal, eighty yards away. And some fast men failed to catch him. □ EZ □ El 1 24 El Foot Ball Personnel— Continued BEN P.

DAMON SMITH Guard Damon, or Demon, is a Georgetown High School product who made a good record in his first year in the big show. He is as hard a worker as any on the team, and plays for the love of the game. Rumor has it he loses his temper occasionally, but so long as he takes it out on the enemy we shall not mind much. He will be a mainstay in the line next year. MaMHPrUL 125 □ □ Foot Ball Personnel— Continued JESSE C. THOMSON, Timid Tackle Thomson decided that since he was quite a small fellow (physically) some very moderate forms of exercise tak- en in senior year might tend to help him enjoy the knocks of worldliness in after life, so he was with us strong at tackle position. Jesse likes the game so well that he compares the short foot ball ex- perience with four years of class instruction, and seems to be in favor of foot ball. He has been known to ask information on the technique of the game. Jesse expects to take post-graduate work in S. U. not slighting foot ball in the least. M. T. WAGGONER, Tubby Guard-Tackle Waggoner was by no means a star for never did he seek the lime light. His motto was to be at the post all the time and do his work well.

McHENRY, Mc Halfback and Captain McHenry suffered during the greater part of the season from injuries he received play- ing base ball last summer, and the operation subsequent thereto. But he managed to out — guess a good many fast ends just the same. At being foot ball fast McHenry has no superior in Texas and when in condition, he is the cleverest broken field artist in the State. T. H. HARRIS, Squid Guard and Captain-Elect Harris is light but is one of the surest men on the squad. He is fast but above all he has the capacity for downright hard work. He is about as good a half back as he is a guard and played therein several games. He has been chosen to captain the team for next year and there is no doubt of him doing his part. He gets better all the time. J. H. McGINNIS Head Coach McGinnismust have had a hard coach at Missouri for he surely believes in work and in the training rules too. He knows foot ball, and this, coupled with his good use of tongue and (sometimes failing) good humor kept the team working all the time. He is a great coach and his chief peculiarity is the Cinco which he must have for inspiration. El 127 As It Looked in Print The Foot Ball Season of 1912 as Clipped from the Daily Press Southwestern Tunes Up Georgetown, Texas, Sept. 21 — Between forty and fifty brawny Texas lads are in the Southwestern University training camp endeavor- ing to make the first team of the university. The team will be cap- tained this year by R. K. Mc- Henry, All-State half-back of last year. At the initial try- out which began a series of gruell- ing tests, a large number of prom- ising players was found, and Coach- es J. H. McGinnis and James C. Snipes are optimistic. E. Mid Westbrook, Manager of the 1912 team, arrived last week and is making preparations for the games. — San Antonio Express. T. C U. vs S. U. Georgetown, Texas, Oct. 12. — Southwestern University lost its first game of the season to Texas Christian University this afternoon, 20 to 0. A drizzling rain fell throughout the afternoon and the field was just muddy enough to Snipes impede progress. Texas Christian had the advantage in weight 20 pounds to the man and Southwestern ' s lineup was crippled. The Methodists put up an excellent game all of the way, scrapping in defense every inch of ground that Texas Christian University won. On several occasions Southwestern held the Ft. Worth players right under the goal posts. Robbins, Mon- ning, Graham, and Harris did good work for the home team. Boutwell ' s work was conspicuous in the third quarter. Although Southwestern ' s line showed poorly as a whole, Smith and Ryan at center made a splendid showing. — San Antonio Ex- press. S U. vs. Trinity. Southwestern University triumphed over Trinity University yesterday on the Fair Park gridiron. Score, Southwestern 20, Trinity 12. It was a hard fought game and fast. Both teams were in top notch condition and worked hard for a victory. Southwestern clearly had the edge on her oppo- nents. Captain McHenry had his men well trained, and, marred only by frequent fumbling, Southwestern pulled off her plays in perfect style. She was par- ticularly successful in her triple criss-cross play, from which she could either use the forward pass or try an end run. On her delayed bucks, too, she was at her best. Graham at quarterback, and Bout- well at fullback, played the best ball for the George- town squad, though Captain McHenry deserved great credit for his spectacular work. Graham ' s work in the third quarter, when he intercepted a forward pass from Ferguson and went 70 yards for a touch- down, brought the stands to their feet. — Dallas News, October 25. S U. vs Arkansas. Fayetteville, Ark., Nov. 2. — Arkansas University came in to her own this afternoon and in a splendid- ly played game defeated Texas Southwestern Univer- sity by. the score of 25 to 0. The team that Coach Bezdek sent out on the field this afternoon apparent- ly was a much better aggregation than any that has appeared for Arkansas this season. The visitors were outplayed at every stage of the game and at no time was the Arkansas goal in danger. Arkansas used line bucks, end runs and forward passes with almost equal success. — Dallas News. S. U. vs. Polytechnic College Ft. Worth, Texas, Nov. 4. — Polytechnic foot ball warriors dropped another game today when they were defeated at Morris Park by the Southwestern University team by the score of 14 to 7. South- western drew blood in the first eight minutes of play. A forward pass to Graham for 30 yards brought success to Southwestern when Graham elud- ed two Poly tacklers and covered 22 yards for a touchdown. Robbins kicked an easy goal. No more scoring was done until the third quarter, when Darnall ran 20 yards around left end for a touch- down. Miller kicked an easy goal. In the fourth quarter Keene ran 82 yards for a touchdown. — Houston Post. The game was clean and the work of the officials was especially noteworthy. — Ft. Worth Star-Tele- gram. S. U. vs. Baylor Waco, Texas, Nov. 12. — Southwestern brought a much stronger eleven to Waco yesterday than the Baylor boys were looking for and the visitors got away with the game, the score ending in to 6. Resembled Stone Wall Southwestern ' s line stood almost like a stone wall against the Baylor advance. Boutwell, the best and heaviest fullback that has appeared on Carrol Field this season, went through Baylor ' s line almost at will, and frequently for long gains, and Wilson went through at frequent intervals, too. The Methodists have an exceptionally good backfield, and the inter- ference they worked yesterday was excellent. McHenry Clever. McHenry, the star halfback, netted his advances on end runs and he got away in a hurry. It fre- quently required a half dozen trials before the Bay- lor men could down him, and by that time he had □ 128 B mmMwmmm ■ « As It Looked in Print— Continued gone for considerable distances with the hall. In addition, he was fine at tackling. But for him, Bay- lor would have gotten away for long runs and a touchdown. He saved two possible scores by timely tackles after the runner had gotten away from every- body else. Few Penalties. A few penalties were exacted for holding, while Southwestern was penalized once for delaying the game. More men were disabled than is usually the case. This was due more to the inexperience and softness of the Baptists, however, than to unneces- sary roughness of the Methodists. Baylor Scores First. Baylor was the first to score, taking the ball over the line in the third quarter. Fired by a determina- tion to overcome this lead, Southwestern came back strong, and within an almost incredibly short time the visitors had gone the locals one better by mak- ing a touchdown and kicking a goal, giving them one point the lead. The visitors scored again in the last quarter. — Waco Morning News. Rice vs S. U. Georgetown, Texas, Nov. 15. — The Rice Institute foot ball team put up a plucky fight against the older and more seasoned players of the Southwestern University team here this afternoon, hut lost by a score of 32 to 0. McHenry of Southwestern made several long runs down the field in his old time style. Keene, Boutwell, and Wilson played an ex- cellent game. — Houston Post. S. U vs. Texas. Austin, Texas, Nov. 22. — The Southwestern eleven proved an opponent worthy of the metal of the Long- horns this afternoon, and on a field slippery and wet, Texas succeeded in adding another victory to their credit by the score of 28 to 3. Southwestern score came late in the fourth period, when Texas had the game sewed up, Robbins putting a neat dropkick over the bar from the 35 yard line. Texas scored two touchdowns in the second quarter and a bled two more in the fourth quarter. Littlefield kicked every goal. — Associated Press Report. Perhaps fewer penalties were inflicted than in any other game this season on Clark Field. Both elevens played clean foot ball, and all but a sinje penalty inflicted, were for offside plays. There was none of the wrangling that so frequently mars the games and not a single decision was questioned. — Austin Statesman. Foot Eall Season Closes. Georgetown, Texas, Nov. 24. — With enthusiastic exercises in the University Auditorium, the foot ball season at the Methodist institution was closed yes- terday. The record of the team was reviewed and the members of the team cheered. — San Antonio Ex- press. McHenry, ' 12 S. U. FOOT BALL CAPTAINS Henderson, ' 11 Headrick, ' 10 Snipes, ' 09 I, EL HI E3E 129 130 The Scrubs of 1912 ITH lots of sand and plenty of speed and with pep to spare, the Scrub Foot Ball Team of 1912 proved the best Southwestern has ever put forth. Out of those dropped from the Varsity squad and a few lightweights, Coaches Headrick, McMillan and Hum- phreys developed a team that was never beaten by one of its class. The Deaf and Dumb Institute Eleven opened the season on October 26 when the Scrubs captured the big end of a 24 to 7 score. The game was fast and at times spectacular, but though the Institute boys put up a good fight, they were clearly outclassed. The Scrubs broke through their line at will and easily carried the ball for gains around their ends. All the Scrubs played good ball in thisgame,butHunter,Woolsey andDunnam on the defense andLon- gino, the speedy half-back who scored four touchdowns, deserve special mention. When Austin Academy came over on November 2, the Scrubs were in mid-season form and the game was keen from whistle to whistle. Even with Coaches Rix and Metzenthin in their back-field, the visitors found the Scrub line impenetrable and their ends too fast to circle. But despite the score of 26 to 6, the game was by no means one-sided and the side-lines found thrills a plenty. Gribble, Woolsey and Coltrane were strong in the line and Pierce did great work in the back-field. After Austin Academy came the game with Coronal. This was to decide the championship of the secondary schools in South and Central Texas for neither team had been defeated. Rooters for both sides cheered from the side- lines, but the referee ' s whistle sounded before either team had scored. As a result of Shand ' s punting and Longino ' s long end-runs the visitors ' goal was several times in danger but able defense prevented a score. On Thanksgiving the Scrubs again met the Coronal team, this time at San Marcos to play off the tie. The Scrubs were not in their best form, but they put up a good fight and again neither team scored. The game was hard fought from the start and the ball in the center of the field almost all the time. Shands again showed up well, both on defense and offense. The work of Hazel and Moss was also noticeable. The season has developed several men who will be strong candidates for Varsity next year, and has shown that Southwestern can support two teams with undivided interest. Manager Dobie, Coach Humphreys and Captain Nixon deserve much credit for the successful season. These men have worked hard from the start and instilled a great deal of pep into the Scrubs. The men in the group on the opposite page are: Dunnam, Williamson, Woolsey, Humphreys, Coltrane, Schweers, Perrin, Gribble, Hunter, Anglin, Shands, Longino, Hazel, Nixon.

HARRIS Catcher Squid took out his civilization papers at the beginnirg of last year: and his base ball suit about six months later. Then he started to work. Titus never missed a prac- tice and mighty few balls. He often found time to swap glances with some one in the grandstand. That ' s Strange, isn ' t it? JOHNNIE LYON Left Field Johnnie started to playing ball in Georgetown long years ago. The first ball he ever had was in his little carriage. Johnnie is a sure fielder and a sure lead-off man, is fast and has a cool head. G. F. PIERCE Short Stop Dago is one of the fastest men in the infield. Although a first year man, he has played in every game and has held his own from the first. He has three more years with us. Was that George? Well, I guess I will have to let him come up to see Hallie tonight. 134 B Base Ball Personnel— Continued B. F.

He plays second base, and covers all the territory between the pitcher ' s slab and the big tree. LELAND HODGES First Base Everyone who had seen Hodges play ball with the High School knew that his place was assured on the team. He is a steady and con- sistent player and is getting better all the time. Bugs hits them over the fence sometimes and against it other times. F. H. COCKE Pitcher Cocke, S. U. ' s star twirler has won a corner in the hearts of all Southwestern students. It ' s a rare thing when he does not get away with every game he pitches. In the thirteen inning game with Texas his work in the box was one of the features. J. L. LONGINO Pitcher Frenchman pulled out of the swamps of Louisiana for S. U., the first instance of his ability to pull out of holes. He is an all around athlete, but pitching seems to be his forte. Aided by a mouth full of slippery elm he makes the host of the enemy fan the air in a hopeless attempt to connect with his elusive spit ball. 3 BE mm ] 35 Base Ball Personnel— Continued G. K. WILSON Right Field Keener is one of the laziest- looking hard workers that ever came to S. U. This is Keener ' s record year with the team and he is getting better all of the time. His hard hitting and sensational one-hand stabs keep the grandstand on their feet. FINLEY YARDLEY Third Base Like his worthy contemporary, Mr. Cobb, Ty is a hard hitter and a fast base runner. He is about the best base thief on the team. With his fall-away slide he is often safe although the baseman is waiting for him with the ball. Ty plays third base in the old Jack Snipes form. ' Nuf sed. W. M. HEADRICK Pitcher There is perhaps no man better known among the student body and also in athletic circles over the state than Headrick. This being his last year in school, Bill decided to come out for base ball as he was not satis- fied with just being manager. Need- less to say, he made the nine and surprised no one when he held Aus- tin College helpless and beat them 6 to 0. JACK ASHTON Assistant Coach Jack hails from the Windy City of Chicago and still retains a good part of the Windy. He made friends, and also the ball team go the first day that he got here. Jack took hold of the pitching staff which was apparently very weak and through his coaching he has devel- oped a trio that have been showing the real Big League form. I guess he doesn ' t know how to handle youngsters? 136 iPIVf Basket Ball Team 1913 S ,WI 2 l s ■ v M iwi lB 1. ., ,j J5 ; ..

These classes continue through- out the year but those who are trying out for any of the various athletic teams are excused from attendance. The instruction follows the Swedish System of Gymnastics and, beginning with easy exercises, progresses towards the more difficult.

President of Southwestern University, Professor of Biblical Literature and Biblical Theology HARLES McTYEIRE BISHOP, the fifth President of South- western University, was born in Virginia and received there his elementary education. He was graduated from Emory and Henry College in 1884 with the degree of A. M. For the following two years he was adjunct Professor of Latin and Greek at his alma mater. In 1887 he entered the active ministry and two years later was trans- ferred to the Southwest Missouri Conference, going first to Melrose Church in Kansas City and thence to several of the most prominent churches in Missouri. He was honored with the degree of Doctor of Divinity by Central College of Fayetteville, Mo., in 1899. The summer of 1900 he spent in Europe which was followed by a study of church architecture in the Eastern cities of the United States. Dr. Bishop has held many positions of responsibility and trust in the church, including membership in the Inter-Church Conference on Fed- eration and the General Conferences of 1906 and 1910. He is now a member of the Board of Federation of the M. E. Church and M. E. Church South. As a lecturer and writer Dr. Bishop is well known throughout Southern Methodism. He has lectured upon the poetical books of the bible at the Scarritt Bible School of Kansas City, at the Missionary Training Institute of Nashville and in the Summer School of Theology of Southwestern University. He has contributed to the Sunday School literature of the Southern Methodist Church. In 1909 he was the Cole lecturer at Vanderbilt University; these lectures have since been published. In 1910 Dr. Bishop was transferred to Texas, going to Wichita Falls, whence he was called in June 1911 to become President of Southwestern University. He was inaugurated at a time most critical for the institution and most delicate for the incoming executive, but he has mastered the exigencies of the situation with wise foresight and splendid executive ability. Instead of declining, South- western University has flourished in the last two years and her position among Texas institutions of learning was never surer than it is at present. For this the credit is largely due to the leadership of her President, Charles McTyeire Bishop. an t- ! . ' . i | i J.v.i.. ,.. ). | i.-i,!-, | ' , | j.-! | j ' i L ' 1 .. ' ,. ' ■ ' ■ .

He was graduated with first honors from Emory Col- lege in 1875, received there the degree of A. M. in 1878 and several years later his alma mater honored him with the Ph. D. degree. Dr. Cody came to Southwestern University as Professor of Mathe- matics in 1879 when Southwestern was a small college with little stand- ing. He has been with her ever since and has had the pleasure of seeing her advance to the promi- nent position which she now fills in Texas education and Texas Meth- odism and feels the greater pleasure of knowing that no small part of this advancement has been due to his own efforts in her behalf. He is now the senior college professor of Texas, having seen thirty-four years of continuous service here. No better illustration of his service to South- western can be given than to enumerate the positions he has filled with eminent success. Dr. Cody has been successively Secretary of the Faculty, Chairman of the Faculty, President of the Ladies ' Annex, Manager of Giddings Hall, Dean of the Summer Schools and at present, besides still being actively en- gaged as Professor of Mathematics, he holds the responsible position of Dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Secretary of the Executive Com- mittee of the University. Dr. Cody is also well and favorably known as the author of several books. Among them are his Life of Dr. Mood and his text-books of plane and solid geometry. E E E 152 mJiEi □ | U _i ' R. F.

Cel- ery has had a hand in eveiything in college and is still popular. He has been here since the dark ages and from demure bashfulness has this year devel- oped into a most ardent Romeo.

Waxahachie, Texas AA§; Alethean; Pan -Hellenic Council ' 11- ' 12; Editor Senior Class. Polly or Henrie Bell is a living example of the fallacy of the proverb that a little learning is a dangerous thing. Three years of endeavor have only served to impress her with the futility of any attempt at intemperance from the Pierian spring. E ]□ 169 Seniors El Phoebe Eleanor Bishop, !. ?. Georgetown, Texas I1B , (Missouri State); Student Instructor in Latin. Our Senior Beauty came from the State of Missouri. Though she has been with us but two years, during that time she has won many friends. Her clear judgment and good taste is best shown by the fact that she put off graduating from last year to this. Chloe Bock, A. B. Mart, Texas Secretary Students ' Association, ' 12- ' 13; Student Assistant in Education, ' 12. This quiet missionary lady has ab- sented herself from us for the most of this year, while she developed dignity in teaching young ideas how to shoot. Her ideals are high and her ambitions worthy of her Alma M ter. R. G. Boger, A. 8. Cleburne, Texas K2; San Jacinto; Pres.

Yes, this is Roy; rather good look ing, isn ' t he? And his steady gush of easy conversation with frequent glim- merings of real wit make him quite popular socially. His ready prattle flows on in class and leaves with the Prof, a vague impression of intellect. His chief assets are a violent appetite and a student assistantship.

Cabinet, ' 12; Chairman Lecture Committee, 11- ' 12; Glee Club, ' 12 and ' 13. Oh! you Grizzly Bear, the side lines shouted at the Foot Ball games and Billiken even deserved the title. In citizens ' clothes his heart is gentle and his manners mild, though he has tendencies towards cradle robbing. On Glee Club tours and in literary society he likewise makes a strong bid for distinction. James Edwin Brown, Jr. A. B. McGregor, Texas KS; Alamo. Behold the curly haired darling of the senior class. He is much loved by the girls but, alas! — he has broken more hearts than he has letters in his name and in consequence has been voted the biggest flirt in school. Edwin hails from McGregor and this city must have suffered sadly since his departure. R. A. Caraway, A. B. Georgetown, Texas Barb; San Jacinto. Dad Caraway is always able to have numerous absences from class as his wife is glad to sign his excuses for him, and the faculty is too tender hearted to deprive him of the com- pany of his (recently acquired) daugh ter, Caraway, Jr. ■ I 171 Seniors S.

He is one of our chief dispensers of class room hot air and for some lime has been ad viser and right hand man to Professor Moore. He has been elected to about every other office in school including — but see Book VI. Bess Crutchfield, A. B. Hope, Ark. AAA; Alethean; Pres.

Long ago it was predicted that Bess would make a name on the stage as a violinist, but now Bess is quite Frank in saying that she is going home to be trained in the gentle art of domesticity. She would make a good preacher ' s wife for she is a good girl. Clifton E. Dowell, A. B. McKinney, Texas KS; Student Assistant in Chem- istry, ' 12- ' 13. Clifton has been with us the allotted time and has distinguished himself by his quiet, gentlemanly ways. By his looks you would never suppose that he delves in the mysteries of chemistry but he places his love for this science even higher than George Marsh does his for the fair sex. El H 172 Seniors EI mi W. M. Ford, A. B. Stamford, Texas Observe here the personification of studious application. Ford was wafted here from Stamford in September, has dwelt among us for a year, and will depart this spring with one sheep skin, some miscellaneous information and an addiction to philosophy.

U. was young, Tina came to us as a Prep, and lingering only for a season drifted away to become a stu- dent in New Mexico. She has come to us again for her Junior and Senior years, and her way has lain along the path of knowledge. Luther E. Gribble, A. B. Wellington, Texas Barb; San Jacinto; Intermediate Debate, ' 12; Intercollegiate Debate, ' 12- ' 13. A hearty, husky cowboy this who takes a part in every phase of college life. His oratorical powers have en- deared him to several different people — among whom are Professor Moore who immortalized the cowboy with a distinction. m 173 Seniors C. W. Hall, A. B.

Brother Hall came to us from the Prep, and never yet has he been ac- cused of tumbling from his pedestal of dignity. Nevertheless he is a right good sort, quiet in manner, scholarly in tastes and a friend to all. W. M. Headrick, A. B.

Base Ball and Track, ' 13; As- sistant Track Coach, ' 13; Store- keeper in Chemistry, ' 12- ' 13; Base Ball Team, ' 13. Big Bill has long been a hero here. He starred at foot ball till a post season game put his patella on the blink. Then he tried society but to get back in the public eye he has this year taken up base ball — and starred again. Harry Lyle Hughes, A. B. Hillsboro, Texas KA; Alamo; Intermediate De- bate, ' 12; Intercollegiate De- bater, ' 13; President T. S.O. A., ' 12- ' 13; Y. M. C. A. Cabinet, ' 12. ' 13. Harry is distinguished for two things — his constancy and his liking for hard work. He has one sprinting record to his credit — made after the Baylor game when they started to rining. E3C El 1 74 dt GTP iffliio Seniors □ E. H. Jones, A. B. Celeste, Texas IIKA; Alamo; Student Assistant in Biology, ' 12-13. It is said that Puny has a liking for bugs and other biological speci- mens, and it is possible that this pre- dilection has affected the trend of his mind; at any rate he is bugs about base ball games, but his friends predict great things for him. John N. Langwith, A. B. Terrell, Texas IIKA; San Jacinto; Student As- sistant in Physics, T2- ' 13; Stu- dent Instructor in Mathematics and Physics, ' 12- ' 13. John Langwith carries out well the ideals of scholarship of this illustrious class. We must talk about him, for like John Alden, he will not talk for himself. We wonder how he teaches his Prep, class. W. J. Lewis. A. B.

Gassy is a fast man — no offense intended, we mean on the cinder track and— on occasion a railroad track even when handicapped by a sack of bana- nas. He has lots of wind— note his nickname. He took most all the firsts at the Baylor meet, but he isn ' t always as successful in making dates at the Annex. CD 175 ®WM Seniors IDE C. L. McDonald, Ph. B., A. M. Dublin, Texas Ph.

Reverend McDonald is not only with us in the University but assists Professor McMillan in Math, at the Prep, and in Chapel prayers. He is tacking an A. M. on to a Polytechnic Ph. B. this year. Mamie F. McLean, A. B. Clarendon, Texas Clio; Clarendon Club; Student Instructor in English. Mamie McLean comes from the West and brings with her all the breeze of the prairie. She is known best by her ingenuity in impersonation and by her inventive ability for all entertainments. R. K. McHenry, A. B. Georgetown, Texas AS$; (U. of T.); Foot Ball Team, ' 09- ' 12; Base Ball Team, ' 10- ' 13; President Senior class, ' 12. He is handsome — can play ball too. Hence his popularity among boys and girls alike. In him the Senior class found her first President, and while it has been demonstrated that he can not have majored in Robert ' s Rules of Order, the choice was by no means an unwise one. □ B 1® 178 fKfg r §®lI P W i HSDO§. y %. !■ . ■ k- B ED □ [ Seniors George B. Marsh, yl. Zf. San Marcos, Texas IIKA; San Jacinto; Student As- sistant in Chemistry, ' 12- 13; Coronal Club. George has for the past several years been sorely smitten of Cupid. But not girls alone have claims upon his affection. Chemistry holds a high place in his heart; and under the spell of the poetic muse he spends many sleepless hours. C. E. Miller, A. B. Claude, Texas KS; San Jacinto; Intermediate Debater, ' 12; Senior Staff, ' 13. Quiet and thoughtful, he can com- pletely satisfy the Profs, with a few words where his more loquacious brother seniors must reel off pages; tall and mysterious, he leaves a feel ing of meaning more than he says. His Good morning, we feel, stands for something entirely different. Clifford M. Montgomery A. B. San Marcos, Texas IIKA; Alamo; Coronal Club; Magazine Staff, ' 11- ' 12. Clifford was a Junior this year until he edited the Junior Megaphone. Then, because of the lack of co-operation on the part of his fellow-classmen, he left them and became a Senior. He has made good in several ways — notably in track and love. m 177 I □ B Seniors ED Gray Moore, A. B. Marlin, Texas KA; San Jacinto; Band Direc- tor, ' 11 and 12; Student In- structor in Mathematics. Gray is not, as has been held by sorre, a timid boy. He has played be- fore Presidents. Yea, verily, for there are those among us who can bear wit- ness that even the famous Teddy was silenced— or soothed to rest by his magic leadership of the band. A. E. Moss, A. B. Chireno, Texas Shorty spends much of his time playing tennis and the rest in the com- pany of one of the fair students of Georgetown High. The camera caught him on the way. M. M. Murrell, A. B. Columbia, Ky. Barb. If this Kentucky minister preaches as hard as he plays tennis, his success is assured. He is a hard working stu- dent and stars in Sociology. 1R ■HB □ i . ' i . 11 . v. ' .i, .

Mae is our ten o ' clock scholar. She was never known to be on time, but al- ways brings up the rear with an excuse blank in her hand. She is always in for a joke and a good laugh. Her chief vo- cation is history and her avocation is literary society. W. E. Paschall, A. B. Mesquite, Texas San Jacinto; Manager State Tennis Association Meet, ' 12- ' 13. Here is a youth with heart of steel. He has a life long guarantee against fall- ing in love and his heart has never yet yielded to that delight which both stabs and calms. He is a chemist and claims he will invent a solution that will ren- der man invulnerable to woman ' s wiles. Grace Helen Patrick, A. B. Georgetown, Texas AA ; Alethean; Student Assist- ant in History, ' 12- ' 13; Student Instructor in English, ' 12- ' 13. Grace is talented and talkative. Her ambition is to carry learning to the den- izens of East Texas. From her success with Sleepy ' s History papers and in teaching guileless Preps, Leon County may ultimately be proud of her accom- plished daughter. 179 Hi lis . □ Seniors Hazel Platt, A. B.

Hades early in her collegecareer gained a reputation as a flirt, which she has sustained without apparent effort. Teachers impressed by her friendliness and good humor promiscuously dole out distinctions. A. B. Pritchett, A. B. San Marcos, Texas $A0; Glee Club, ' 12- ' 13; Cor- onal Club. Belvin has the reputation of being so ugly that he is good looking. He flirts with the girls outrageously but he has the disadvantage of being unable to smile and look at a girl at the same time. J. F. Rippy, A. B. Richardson, Texas KA; San Jacinto; Intermediate Debate, ' 10-11; Junior Medal, ' 12; Brooks Prize Debate, ' 12; IntercollegiateDebate, ' 12; Stu- dent Assistant in Philosophy, ' 12- ' 13; Intercollegiate Orator, ' 13. Please notice this most versatile and exemplary young man. He can orate, debate, take first honors, and at the same time Dame Rumor has it that he is an adept at making love. We suspect that he will enter the ministry. Behold him here in the role of the preacher militant. EI 180 ™g r i®ij p wggi □ Seniors D. A. Ross, A. B. Georgetown, Texas Reverend Ross is a quiet little man with a family and high ideals. He pur- sues his college course in a determined manner and we imagine he would like to start all over again next September. Randolph Sanders, A. B. Georgetown, Texas A0; SanJacinto; President San Jacinto, ' 13; President Sopho- more Class; Magazine Staff, ' 10- ' 13; Sou ' wester Staff, ' 11- ' 12; Marshal, TO- ' ll; Lecture Committee, ' 11- ' 12; GleeClub, 11- ' 13. John ' Dolloph has patiently and pla- cidly completed his four years of hard laborand will shortly take uphis mission of improving the aesthetic ideals of the nation. He has been sadly shocked by the rude innovations instituted here by the unconventional thirteeners. H. Grady Spruce, A. B. Floresville, Texas IIKA; Alamo; Alamo Inter- mediate Debate, ' 12; Junior Orator, ' 12; Magazine Staff, ' 11- ' 12. Grady has not tarried with us more than two years in succession for he is making a name in the West as a wise professor but the girls in that region have been a constant vexation to his scholarly ambitions. □ — — — _ _ 181 Seniors El R. O. Stewart, A. B. Hobart, Oklahoma San Jacinto. Observe here the silver tongued Oklahoma orator in the act of pronounc- ing a benediction upon a troubled world. In years gone by he obtained the cogno- men of Potlicker and has striven valiantly ever since to live up to it. Melmoth Y. Stokes, Jr., A. B. Lampasas, Texas Barb; Alamo; Alamo President, ' 13; 1912 Sou ' wester Staff; Ed- itor 1913 Sou ' wester; President Press Club, ' 13; Orchestra, ' 11- ' 13; Student Assistant in Eng- lish, ' 12-13. Mr. Melmoth Young Stokes, Junior, started his college career by being a very precocious Freshman, but he has made a brave fight, and has overcome all abnormal tendencies. He has had ambitions to be a Ph. D., a socialist, a sky pilot, and a Benedict: he will probably be a lone, lorn predatory malefactor of great wealth. L. L. Stone, A. B. Georgetown, Texas San Jacinto; Gym nasium In- structor, ' 11-12; Manager Sen- ior, ' 13. Luther is the best natured butt-in in school and entirely disproves one ' s fear of a Stony heart. He isn ' t good looking but beauty is only skin deep and Luther claims to have been skinned. 182 ®© P Wg§¥B@-H9 Seniors Jesse Thomson, A. B. Oenaville, Texas Barb; Alamo; Alamo President ' 13; Alamo Intermediate De- bate, ' 11; President Athletic Association, ' 12- ' 13; Foot Ball Team, ' 12; Brooks Prize De- bate, ' 13; Pres. Senior Class, Third Term. When Jesse first came to Southwest- ern, he was girl-shy, but this year he has blossomed out into a true ladies ' man. He is famous from his foot ball playing, his impromptu speeches and his wanting to scrap the Texas base ball nine three at a time. Roy L. Tingle, A. B. Belton, Texas Barb; San Jacinto; Manager Megaphone, ' 12- ' 13. Minister Tingle was hardly known until this year when he became half of the Megaphone. He is still coming, for he now has both halves of it. Susie reads the I conoclast and lays claim to some original theological ideas. Cary Touchstone, A. B. Merkel, Texas Barb; San Jacinto. Cary has been dropping in at South- western for a term or two for several years and this time he has decided to grad. His qualities of steadiness have won for him the position of official cha peron of the Co-op. He also leads the Mission Band. El D 183 Seniors Merle Thomas Waggoner, A. B. Wichita Falls, Texas IIKA; San Jacinto; Lecture Committee, ' 12- ' 13; Sou ' west- er Staff, ' 12- ' 13; Foot Ball, ' 12- ' 13. Merle, called Tubby for short, insists that everybody loves a fat man. He is a Wichita Falls booster and a smile is his trade mark. H. Bascom Watts, A. B. Rochester, Texas Barb; San Jacinto, ' 12; Y. M. C. A. Cabinet, ' 11- ' 12; Honor Council, ' 12- ' 13; Intermediate Debate, ' 12; Junior Orator, ' 12; President Student Association, ' 12- ' 13; Brooks Prize Debate, ' 13. He has been prominent in student activities, especially the Honor Council and Student Association; has made good in all of these and now calmly awaits the climax — his sheepskin. E. Mid Westbrook, A. B. Kerens, Texas $A0; San Jacinto; Intermediate Orator, TO- ' ll; Assistant Man- ager Foot Ball, ' 11; Manager Foot Ball, ' 12. Mid was chosen chairman of the so- cial committee of the Senior Class — There ' s a reason. He has divided his remaining days of college life be tween flights of oratory and trips to the Annex. As a pastime he attends classes occasionally. 184 m Seniors Ben Wallace Wiseman, A. B. Georgetown, Texas A0; Glee Club, ' 10- ' 11- ' 12; Gymnasium Director, ' 12- ' 13. Beautiful Ben is one of the most active members of the class of 1913, but he has two offices which consume the most of his time: he is Gymnasium di- rector and self-appointed Annex watch- man. Harlie D. Woods, A. B. Abilene, Texas $A0; Alamo; Alamo President, ' 12; Magazine Staff, ' lO- ' ll- ' ; Megaphone Staff, ' lO- ' ll; Glee Club, ' 12- ' 13; Manager Glee Club, ' 13; Student Assistant in English, ' 11- ' 13. Harley is a sweet and mild-mannered child. His chief concerns are Glee Club and paying court to a certain hard- hearted young person. He purposes going to Columbia next year where he will imbibe history at the fountain head. Pauline Wright, A.B., A.M. Corsicana, Texas ZTA; Clio; Woman ' s Honor Council. Petite Pauline has been here but a year, yet she has made a place and a name for herself. Violin accompanist, pipe organist and A. M. graduate, she ranks high in scholarship and the esteem of the class. 185 Seniors Fine Arts Lucy Mae Agnew, Art Ravenna, Texas AAA; Student Assistant in Latin, ' 12- ' 13. Lucy Mae was early dubbed by an admiring room-mate Goosie. Decidedly artistic, and manifestly good to look upon, undecided in mood, Goosie constantly vibrates between smiles and tears. Elmo Alexander, Piano Meridian, Texas $A0; Glee Club, ' 11 ' 13. St. Elmo is a masculine re-incar- nation of St. Cecilia. Music is his middle name and he thinks in harmonies. His favorite social diversion is sitting on ihe near edge of a chair, nibbling at mints. Ruth Hightower, Piano Weatherford, Texas Ruth ' s chief delights are music and laughter. She is a grad in the one and post grad in the other. A wholesome fear of the dean ' s displeasure has forced her to abstain from riding in his buggy after school. 188 1 cD El n ■?„««««s. U ' ,2, « • • . ■.;.-. Seniors Ju ANITA Knolle, Expression Seguin, Texas ZTA;AIethean; Alethean Presi- dent, ' 13. Jonnie bids fair to become a star of the first magnitude for has she not for two years entranced our audiences by her acting in home-talents. Though she does like to dress up, even on school days, she says that she is not a flirt, but is merely friendly to everybody. Jeffie Patrick, Violin Georgetown, Texas AA$; Orchestra, ' 10- ' 12. Our violinist, tall and temperamen- tal. Often times deluding the public by a dignified mien, Jeffie frequently leaves an impression of solemnity, wholly at variance with her nature — in reality as merry as the merriest of us. Lillian Strange, Piano Certificate Riesel, Texas ZTA; Choral Club. Though devoted to her piano to the extent of six hours daily practice, Lillian, or Grad Strange never misses a ball game. Indeed it is rumored that the bare hint of such an absence, on one occasion, almost rendered the catcher unfit for duty. m • 187 □ Seniors Pauline Swofford, Voice Granbury, Texes AAA; Alethean; Choral Club. Beauty of face and voice and a sunny disposition have made a favorite of Pau- line. She is a firm believer in the effi- cacy of protracted sleep as a balm for all troubles and a source of delight. She is notable for her long train of satellites. Beulah Thompson, Piano Georgetown, Texas So quiet has shebeen that we scarce recognized in her a Grad. Her soul delights in music and in this way she gives expression to hernoblest thoughts. Mary Treat, Piano Whitney, Texas Clio; Clio President, ' 13; Choral Club, ' 13; Junior Academic. Mary is an old timer at S. U.— how old doesn ' t concern us. She also is a favorite as shown by the vote of the boys. Her chief delight is in practicing the funeral march — not on the piano. S..I s ijs; i S 5? SSS : m i ' ■ ' ■ 188 TO1 □ Seniors Mary Lee Walters, Art San Saba, Texas ZTA; Alethean. Haunting the art room is Mary Lee ' s chief occupation but she — well, also goes to chapel. She is long-suffering and tender-hearted and timid in the presence of all but a favored few. Conclusion THUS endeth the roster of the Grad. Class of 1913 and a mighty race are they. Of wit they have a plenty, eke a sufficiency of goodness, a modicum of genius, and e ' en a grain o ' common sense to help them better bear the honors they have won. ' Twould indeed be a venturesome prophet who would try to read their horoscope. Success yet lies within the grasp of each one ' s hand and if it be but seized upon, then may this roll again appear — inscribed upon the Hall of Fame. □ □ 189 D Preparation Swiftly rushing through the forest Runs the river o ' er the boulders; But it pauses for a moment, Spins the mill-wheel, then flows onward, Down into the fertile lowlands, Out into the sea. In the mill the saws are singing While they fashion from the tree trunks Sturdy beams and dainty lathe-work. From the pine and scented cedar Comes the timber better suited To the needs of men. In the lowlands by the river Fields of grain gleam rich at harvest. To a mill the grist is carried And the mill-stones bruise and crush i Till the grain is better suited To the needs of men. To the college come the students Gathered from the farm and city — Ploughboy and the banker ' s daughter Like the grist and like the tree-trunks To be transformed and the better Service render men. anj 190 EH m Cfflml B 191 Junior Academic COLORS White and Gold MOTTO To Rest Is to Rust First Term M.

Dodging here, stiff-arming a man there, the white lines slipped by and at last only two men stood between him and the goal. A stiffening of the arm and the left-half, clutching wildly at his man, fell sprawling. The little quarterback crouched white and determined before the last line. With one last supreme effort Tad threw himself forward and the two bodies met with a thud. The tackle was fierce and hard and both went down. But the ball was over the line. Pandemonium reigned. People danced madly up and down the sidelines, hats were thrown in the air, automo- bile horns honked and confusion held full sway. As he lay on Jack ' s knee, and felt the cold water from the sponge trickle down his neck, he saw the excited face of the girl he had bumped into a few days previously at the University. She was in a car directly opposite the goal line, waving and cheering. The referee ' s whistle shrieked and the game was on again. With a rush Mercer was down on the kickoff, and with renewed energy they blocked the attack of Swarthmore. The ball went to Mercer on downs and just as the quarter-back called Jones ' signal again, the whistle blew and the game was over. Pulling on his sweater, Tad made his way through the cheering crowd toward the gates. Hearing his name called, he turned to see Billy Smith motioning to him from his car. Tad, I want you to meet Miss Winton. Nell, this is Mr. Jones. She met his eye smilingly, and as she grasped his hand it seemed to him as if she too remembered the scene in the hall. Climb on and we ' ll take you to the Gym. And still keeping up a running fire of questions, Billy dropped into high as Tad perched himself on the tonneau door. With embarrassed interest he listened to their praise, while he stole covert glances at the pretty blonde on the front seat, who talked so interestedly to Billy. He hardly heard the congratulations of the enthusiasts collected about the Gym door, and hurriedly made his way into the locker room. He submitted El HE HE) 23 1 to the administration of arnica and witch-hazel, pulled on his clothes absently, dodged the little group of players in the hallway, who, with the coach, were playing the game all over again, and passed out into the chill November twi- light. Not until after supper did he remember that he had forgotten to get his watch and wallet from the trainer. It had been almost a month since the Swarthmore game and Tad had not even seen Miss Winton once As he strolled down the hall toward the French room, a cheery Good morning, Mr. Jones came from behind him. Turning he beheld the object of his musings in company with Billy Smith. Why, I haven ' t seen you since the football game. Well, it surely isn ' t my — It ' s exam week, you know, and I ' ve had a lot of boning to do. Under those circumstances I suppose you can be excused. But of course you ' re coming to open-house next Monday night? I don ' t know, I ' ve a History thesis to write, but I ' ll try to come. Really you must come — all the girls have been asking about you. Just then the bell rang, and Tad turned toward the French room, stopping at the door to watch the couple as they disappeared down the hall. Monday afternoon Tad met Billy coming from town. Going to open-house, to-night, Tad? Don ' t know; are you? Sure thing, Nell gave me a special invitation. Call her by her first name, do you? Oh! yes, I ' ve known her a long time. Well, I may see you to-night. So long, Billy. So long. That night when Tad reached the Woman ' s Building, Billy was already there, in conversation with Miss Winton. As he came up she smiled pleas- antly. Glad you were able to come. I arranged with Prof. Thompson to turn in the thesis Wednesday and besides I ' d promised Miss Persons I ' d be here. Billy tactfully excused himself and wandered off, leaving the two together. 11® 232 lit a The night was one of unalloyed pleasure for Tad. MissWinton was most cordial, and her smile was alluring. He saw no more of Billy during the evening and she seemed to prefer his company, anyhow. As time passed Tad was seen with Miss Winton more frequently and the two names soon came to be linked together. Saturday night after Christmas they went to Madame Butterfly. As they passed into the lobby, Billy and Alice Parker greeted them. Oh! Tad, I ' ve something to tell you, Alice whispered as they came up. She and Tad dropped behind and began talking earnestly. Occasionally Tad chuckled audibly; and once as he glanced toward Nell her eyes seemed almost to blaze as she met his glance. Soon the crowd began to move toward the door, and as Tad rejoined Nell, she remarked caustically: I hope you enjoyed your conversation. I surely did. Alice was telling me about a house party she was going to have sometime next summer. Becoming suddenly conscious of a chill in the atmosphere, he added, Why, you didn ' t mind my talking to her, did you? Not in the slightest; it was perfectly all right. He gave his tickets to the door-keeper and passed down to their seats. Farrar was billed to sing that night, and as the orchestra struck up the overture, Tad whispered, I think Madame Butterfly is a beautiful opera, don ' t you? Yes! Presently he tried again. Billy surely is a swell fellow, isn ' t he? ' ' Yes, do you know his brother, Harry? No, I ' ve never met him. He ' s coming down for Commencement. I hope you ' ll meet him. ' ' She babbled on for a time and receiving no reply, relapsed into moody silence. As the curtain rang down on the last act, Tad helped her into her cloak, and without speaking, they went up the aisle and were jostled along by the chattering crowd in the lobby. A month had passed and baseball practice was on. Tad was working diligently as he was one of the few old men back and much depended on 1 In 233 them. He had seen Miss Winton once since Madame Butterfly and she had greeted him with, Good morning, Mr. Jones. ' ' Several days after this meeting, as he was leaving the athletic field, he caught sight of her coming out of the grand-stand, in company with several girls who had been watching the practice. He joined the group and they greeted him enthusiastically, plying him with questions about the prospects for the team. Miss Winton took no part in the conversation but dropped behind with Alice Parker. As they neared the Gym, Tad joined Nell as she and Alice strolled along behind the rest of the girls. Hello, Nell! How do you do, Mr. Jones? With the feeling that her presence was not necessary, Alice discreetly slipped away and joined the other girls. Really, Nell, I don ' t see any reason why you should stay angry with me. Your actions at Madame Butterfly were unpardonable. You left me standing by myself while you and Alice were so engrossed with each other. Well, it was only for a minute, and anyway you had Billy to talk to. Yes, and he is much more polite than you are. He wouldn ' t have left me in any such way. Can ' t you forget it, this time? ' ' Yes, I could but you ' d do the same thing again. And they talked by the Gym step until the other girls were out of sight, and as Nell started to leave Tad fell in with her and walked across the campus. The street lights had just come on when he said good bye. As he burst into the Gym whistling, Billy accosted him. What ' re you so happy about? Nothing, wait for me and we ' ll go to the show to-night. All right, Tad. It was Commencement week. Old students dropped in and jollied each other about the pranks of their college days. Much interest centered in the big Commencement baseball game, and some of the old timers went back into their youthful days to the extent of making little wagers on the outcome of the game. L l 234 11 □ And it was a great game. For twelve innings Mercer and Swarthmore battled to a scoreless tie. In the last half of the twelfth Mercer got one on and none down and the fans went wild, crowded out of the stands, rushed up and down the ropes, hurrahing the pitcher, and imploring the batter to knock it down his throat. Bingo, the third baseman, drove a stinger down first-base line. Leaping high in the air, the first baseman pulled it down, doubling the runner who had dug out for second — only one more chance and Jones up. As he chose his bat from the string in front of the bench, he caught a glimpse of Nell, in Billy ' s car, imploring him to save the game. With heart bounding he faced the pitcher. As the first one came over he swung wildly, missing it by a wide margin. He settled himself, gripped his bat tighter, and waited for the next one. The pitcher wound up deliberately and let it loose. Crack! and he was off; down first-base line he raced, round the base and saw the center fielder digging after the ball. Take another one, the coacher screamed, as he crossed second. Among the howling, frantic mob back of third, he saw the coacher leaping and shouting, waving him toward the plate. He swung round the base and with a wonderful burst of speed he slipped over the remaining distance. One last spurt and his spikes clicked on the plate as the ball thumped in the big mitt. The catcher tagged at him desperately, but too late — the runner was safe. Slipping on his sneaks, Tad made his way through the excited fans toward the gate. A feeling of elation and pride seized him. It was the last game of the year, and he had decided the championship by his hit and in the twelfth. As he passed close by Billy ' s car, Nell shouted to him. Oh! Tad, I am so happy. We won the championship and you did it. His roommate, Tom Hilton, called to him and he started away. Oh! Tad, I almost forgot; I want you to meet Billy ' s brother, Harry, my fiance — Well, why don ' t you congratulate us, don ' t you think it is just splendid? — Oh! yes — yes, I — I know you will be happy. Unseeingly, Tad wandered slowly out of the park, stopping at the ticket- office to gaze back at the stands and diamond, now deserted. Come on, Tad, going to stay all evening? exclaimed Tom, coming up to where Tad stood watching the distant car. Gee! but you ' re a lucky guy. You ' re the greatest player in college now. Uh, huh , he said and, knocking the dirt from his spikes, turned towards the Gym. -WALTER L. ROBBINS. HE 31 235 Non Quis, Sed Quid U 5 AIN ' T who you are, but what! declared Baldy Hicks, pugnaciously, as though some one had dared to differ with him. We six or seven men, sitting in a semi-circle on the porch of the Country Club house, smiled expectantly. We knew Hicks was started on one of the stories for which he was famous. That he was worth three times as much as any man there, made no difference. I ' m thinking of young Koreman. He was and is the son of a Senator. Nobody knows why his Dad sent him to old S. U. — and Koreman Jr. least of all. But when he got there he thought he would let everybody know he had arrived. The dear boy brought his touring car along — thought he was even some duck! He just natura ' ly made everybody sick. The poor, little mis guided imp had to fall in love with the finest girl in school, and he became utterly unbearable when he thought she had noticed him. Gee! But he was stuck up! That is unti she handed him the mitten. What! he stormed. Me! The son of a Senator — turn ME down! You — the son of a Senator, she assured him sweetly. When he recovered, Koreman decided his next move would be to join a fraternity. She won ' t refuse me then, I ' ll bet! he muttered, savagely. You boys can imagine his feelings when he discovered that not a Frat in school would have him! Well, the comedy went on. After he had been in S. U. about three weeks, he wrote a long letter to his father. It was a very methodical letter. He numbered his reasons for consigning ' his much beloved College to regions much warmer than Central Texas. He d escribed his exper- iences; and suggested that he might do better at something other than attending College. His father, after a careful perusal of the letter, wired back: Honest, you are no block-head. Try studying. Koreman Jr ' s eyes bulged when he read the message. Why! I hadn ' t thought of that — believe I will! And he did — try. When, however, he absent-mindedly threw his pipe off the gallery after lighting it and sucked on the match, he was con- vinced that brain storm threatened — and wired his father to that effect. Fact is, he was so frightened, he followed his telegram. You fellows needn ' t begin to snort. I tell you, he was the bummest das Ding that ever hit S. U.! He told his father that he was going West for a rest, and his father curtly 236 D □ L □ toe m told him to go West or anywhere else he pleased — and suggested a very warm clime. Koreman Jr. strode out of the room shaking with anger and disgust. Well, he dropped completely out of his father ' s life when he went out of the door. Fact is, his father never even heard of him till a little over a year and a half after that, when a tall, muscular fellow was ushered into his office. There was unmistakable approval and pleasure in the father ' s voice as he greeted his son in his laconic way: Well, tell me about it, my boy! Sure! I first knocked around in Arizona a while, roughing it, but I didn ' t do much good. One day, however, I came across a sofa-pillow cover which I had intended to give some fair maid, and I noticed on the seal the words: Non Quis, Sed Quid. That set me to thinking. Since then it ' s be- come my motto. Dad, I ' ve been Superintendent, under an assumed name, of one of your mines for the last six months! Rising joyously, young Koreman stuck out his hand with a grip like a vise in it. I ' ve got to go now, but I want to bring my wife up to see you. She ' s the one who deposited me so artistically on terra firma when I first went to College. Jus;: then the door behind us opened and a pleasant feminine voice in- terrupted Baldy. Here now! Quit talking about yourself! It ' s time to re- tire. Mrs. Davis and I have just won — playing bridge. All right, wife, I ' m coming, sighed Hicks resignedly, as he yawned and got to his feet. J. K. BURK. Inspiration Far from the madding crowd, Away from the haunts of man, I wander away to spend a day Alone in the realm of Pan. There oft in the shady wood, And oft on the meadow green, I take delight in many a sight Of woodland and lowland scene. And when I am forced to return, Though longer I fain would stay. My heart ' s on fire with a firm desire To live as a man while I may. 237 B m ANNEX LIFE El :c 238 s Never Again R1 H, GIRLS, I know you ' ve heard the news! and isn ' t itperfectly awful? Eloise had rushed into the room where a crowd of her sorority sisters sat discussing the events of the day. She flung her books upon the table, and dropped, almost exhausted upon the bed. The girls who were just wishing for something excit- ing to happen, crowded around her, eager to hear the news. I ' ll never rush anybody again — girls, please take note of my solemn vow! No, never again. Why, they ' ve got her — those measley old Betas! They ' ve got her — just think about it! The changed expression of the girls ' faces proved well enough that there was no doubt as to whom she meant. Nell O ' Donald, the latest victim of the Betas ' affections, was a most desirable girl — bright, tactful, very pretty and ex- ceedingly well-to-do. Although there was a boldness about her that was at first unpleasantly noticeable, yet for this one was fully willing to forgive her when her kind-heartedness and open nature became more fully known. From the first she had openly favored the Omega sorority, and it was for this reason that Eloise and her crowd were now so much surprised. Why, I can ' t believe it, echoed around the room. Peggy, now over her first shock, dropped herself into the nest of pillows on the floor, clasped her hands, raised her eyes, and gave utterance to her most favored expression, My — Country, ' tis of thee! Just think of all those trig problems I ' ve worked for her! Oh, the in- gratitude of some people! For with Ella the surprise had given place to anger. Trig nothing! retorted Peggy. Look what I did — actually wrote a short story for her while she was gone on that pesky picnic — and with Jack to boot! And she hurled a pillow into the opposite corner of the room. Julia and Ethel cast knowing glances at each other as they observed Eloise sitting pensively on the bed. The latter glanced up, caught their half-smoth- ered laugh, and from the attitude she then assumed, the others knew she had something to tell. Yes, I will tell it and you may laugh at my lack of sense if you want to. Why, it was no longer than last night — Here Eloise, with her eyes staring □ ED 239 into vacancy and her lips tightly compressed, broke off, reflecting for a mo- ment. Then beginning in a hurried, agitated manner to take down her hair, she continued, Not a one of you has been the fool that I have! Math prob- lems and themes aren ' t in it! Why, I see clearly now I ' ve been at her very heels ever since her arrival, trying to gratify her every wish. But last night the limit was reached and had I not been so heartily ashamed of it all, 1 would have told you before this. Every face with wide-open, questioning eyes, was fixed on Eloise, but not a girl dared break the moment or two of silence. Half-reclining on the bed, her hair down her back, one hand supporting her head, the other playing ner- vously with her hairpins, Eloise told her story. The lights had been out just long enough for the matron to have made the rounds with her little lantern when my door opened softly and I heard Nell ' s voice. She told me her story hurriedly — how she had taken a nap and missed her supper, how the girls next door, with a rug over the transom and quilts over the door and windows, were stealing time for a feast, and she was as hungry as a little dog. ' Poor child! I wish I could do something for you! ' I said as I sat up in bed. ' I have some canned stuff, but not a bite of bread or crackers. ' ' I tell you — I ' ll give you a dare ' , she answered. ' I know just where they keep :he bread and eggs in the kitchen. Do you understand? Will you go with me? ' ' How very preposterous, ' 1 protested; ' what if we should be caught? ' ' O, we wont, ' she assured me. ' You just go with me to the door of the dining- room and I ' ll do the rest. ' Don ' t look shocked girls — I went for I thought our getting her might depend on it. As we, in our stocking feet, crept through the halls and down the steps, it seemed every plank tried to creak the loudest. I waited at the door while she felt her way through the dining-room into the kitchen. I waited it seemed for ages and was just about to follow her when I heard a rustle, a smothered exclamatory ' O Eloise! ' and then a crash. Hcr- ror-struck, I listened to what brought my heart into my throat — a rush through the dinning room, a crash of scattered dishes and overturned chairs. At length Nell, with ' run for your life, my dear, ' -grabbed me by the sleeve and forced me at a terrible rate down the hall. Up the steps two at a time we bolted through the darkness. At the foot of the landing which would have carried us safely into my room, we were obliged to halt, for descending the steps in equally as great a Ifu kP!) 240 □ □ 3 □ TOE §®© P WB©¥gE M hurry came the chief-cook with her flash light. Following Nell, I jumped on the banisters and with a speed that exceeded that of my childhood, I slid down to the bottom. Having reached the first floor, we were again face to face with danger — coming down the hall was the matron widi her lantern. I saw no way of escape, and started toward her to confess it all. Nell, however, grab- bed me by the arm, unbolted a side-door just around the corner and, having succeeded in getting us both outside, pulled it gently to. To our dismay it had been raining, and to escape getting wet as well as to avoid being seen if pursued, we crouched down in a little alcove near the door. Now for the first time I learned what the trouble was. Nell had suc- ceeded in getting the eggs and had just found the bread, when she struck her hand against an electric button which rang a bell in the chief cook ' s room. She realized what she had done and, in her hurried endeavor to get away, had stumbled over some chairs and fallen, breaking her eggs and losing her bread. Soon we heard voices within and listening attentively, caught the drift of what was going on. Two girls with their candle had started to the sick-room and happened to meet the matron near this side-door. She seized them both with the exclamation, ' Caught! ' There were attempts at explanations, but the matron muttered something about poor excuses, and sent them amazed and half-crying back to their rooms with ' the Honor Council will attend to your case, young ladies. ' Before leaving, however, she bolted the door and uttered a protest against the careless janitor. Here Eloise paused and the girls, who had been listening breathlessly, broke in with — The freak! The old cat! The very ridiculous idea! What in the mischief became of you? That ' s just it, you see, continued Eloise, it was cold and rainy, and we were bolted outside, catching our death of cold — served me right for ever rushing a freshman! I thought of every scheme imaginable to get in. But don ' t ask me how we did it. Eloise entirely relaxed herself and the girls with an anxious surprise look- ed from Julia to Ethel, who had burst out into a fit of laughter. Finally Ethel glancing at Peggy, began jestingly: Last night I had, or rather was having, the most thrilling dream. The night was glorious — superbum, fistically ideal. Jack — that adoring Jack — was beneath my window singing the most — ED n □ 24 1 •?■ ' - - Oh rats; away with your dream! How did Eloise ever get in? inter- rupted matter-of-fact Zelma. Patience, please! I was just getting to that. I rushed from my bed thrust my head from the window, and surprise of all surprises! The night was as dark as a stack of black cats, but down beneath in the rain I could just see two white objects. I almost fell out of the window when I distinguished the voice of Eloise. I knew it would be inconsistent with time and place for her to tell her story then; I also knew she must be gotten into my room at once. If they could only reach the first round of the fire escape they ' d be safe! A happy thought came to me. I grabbed a sheet, threw on my rain-coat and started down the escape. Well, the deed was soon done, and Julia had just succeeded in pulling those two girls, wet and bedraggled and shivering from fear and the cold, in through the window when she exclaimed under her breath: ' The chaperon — as sure as faith! Under the bed with you quick. The recollection of the scene brought peals of laughter from both Ethel and Julia, and even Eloise was forced to smile. Well, Julia and I hurriedly covered up in bed and Eloise and Nell rolled under, just as the chaperon opened the door and flashed her light upon us. The loud snore which Julia gave just then, would have forced a laugh from the most sedate prude. She immediately withdrew her light, gently closed the door and walked back to her room, evidently thinking the noise was made by the storm outside. It wasn ' t much fun sleeping four in bed, but we couldn ' t prevail upon them to venture out again. Eloise burst forth with And if I ever venture out again under such con- ditions, I hope somebody ' ll — ' 11. Here the hearty laugh from all the girls interrupted her. I knew you ' d laugh, but it simply makes me state my vow more firmly — I ' ll never — Wait, be careful what you vow! warned one. Eloise arose, and her teeth closed staccato-like as she proclaimed most firmly, I ' ll never rush a freshman again — no, never again. T. A. G. □ 3E 242 E TOE Southwestern Spirit An Appreciation m SfSPsB Jf-fjl (fK d BL ,m| s sSS Vem-. HE most baffling, and one of the most intangible characteristics peculiar to every college or university is that often too evanescent something called college-spirit. It can not be made to order and given out in quantities that will accurately fit the occasion which demands it, nor is it mechanically timed to begin and end when the psychological moment has arrived. Too often its end is a dying murmur which finally vanishes in an abrupt terminus occasioned by a reverse of what might have been. In Southwestern it does not require a diligent search to find those few students who are pessimistic about the future of the school, the success of the athletics, and the democracy of which every school in America always boasts. On the other hand the same searcher, if he desires the whole truth, will find a strong majority who are extremely optimistic and enthusiastic. These are the students of energy, the element that makes up the student body which the professors call good material. The instructor is not to be pitied for expending so much good teaching upon such poor material. It has been said that the finest thing about Yale University is its student body and this may be applied at Southwestern with even greater emphasis for the class of students is now becoming increasingly more alert to what a university life really means. No more abrupt change could be made than the break from high school life into university life and at this point it is the duty of the university to give the student a correct view of the wider horizons into which he has suddenly been ushered. In this respect Southwestern has succeded. When an instructor meets with a student it is not like arranging a formal visit for there is a prevail- ing tendency towards a natural contact between the two. Older universities take great pride in the paintings, bas-reliefs, and relics which they include in the history of their institutions as it was made by prede- cessors. In an inquiry into customs and traditions one can thus secure a clear- cut opinion of what seemed at first intangible. It is a traditionalism which always gives a distinctive character to the institution. It is fitting to remember that Southwestern University is the outgrowth of a movement begun in 1869, under the leadership of the Rev. Francis Asbury Mood, D. D.; and the chartered c k ni: 3H 243 -fcp ifflaaiiMMgsaia.iiisiis rights of Ruterville College, McKenzie College, Wesleyan College, and Soule University were transferred to the Southwestern University by order of the Conference and special acts of the Legislature. This sentence itself is an histo- rical tradition. Some have thought the university ' s character over-conservative: too uni- form, too conventional, too imitative. Although we are not static it must be said that a decided metamorphosis might profitably come over us in some few wayss In the early days of 1913, one of our ablest professors made the striking statement, Southwestern practices twentieth century athletics and eighteenth century debates . There is a significant truth in this in that we have not deve- loped equally and our progress has been allowed to tend not too strongly one way but too aimlessly in another. Southwestern however has a genuine spirit that has shown itself on many an occasion. A certain effectiveness that pervades the institution is one of the most worthy assets the university possesses and the air of enterprise and self- confidence which an observer takes immediate note of is perhaps the most characteristic temperament of the student and faculty members. We have not like Rome a Forum where, as Kipling says, if one stands on the four street- corners long enough he will see everybody of importance in the world, yet we are proud of Southwestern ' s past with its traditions, her present with its realities, and her future with its promises of continued progress. h. d. w. □ □ IDC □ 244 iiiiiilffi □ MOOD HALL LIFE EI 245 Patchwork for Cupid OME, go up. All right — wait just a second, though. I want a drink. As Burley got his drink, he gave the tank a friendly slap. j It was a good old tank! To be sure it was awfully round-shoul- dered, but then it was always cool and collected and it never refused anyone two cupfuls after practice. Up in 37 Burley stretched his lengthy form upon the bed, placing his feet luxuriously upon the once clean spread. Hear you and Eleanor have broken up? said Ned — for he was anxious to get the particulars. Yes. Ned placed his feet on the table, wadded the gray jersey with the S on it and put it behind his head, pressed his biggest pimple with much feeling and — tried again. Johnnie Meachum says Frank Rountree was cutting you out. I admire Johnnie Meachum. He ' s the biggest liar I ever met. The way he slips it by the Profs, is simply heart-rending. Ned glanced quickly at his companion. It was maddening to see him lying there when the entire Hall was wondering how it happened. Then Ned offering a silent prayer and biting hard upon his pipe-stem, took his life in his own hands. You know Eleanor is the funniest girl I ever saw. Why she said — And then Ned felt a strange intuition that something was coming. He didn ' t wait to see what, but taking Time quickly by its forelock and his pipe by its stem, he began to examine the end of the trunk away from the bed. Now, said Burley as he readjusted himself with all the dignity of a coach announcing who should go on the trip, now I suppose you begin to catch the drift. Ned looked at the spot on the wall and wiped a bit of mud from his cheek. Yes, he said briefly. For a few moments Burley gazed at the many girls ' faces which smiled be- witchingly down on him from the walls. You know football and girls are a lot alike. I was chasing one the other day- A girl? No, bonehead, a foot ball. I was chasing it and Doc Foss, he was right behind me. Whew! You wouldn ' t think a fellow as big as he is could run, would you? But he was sure coming some, so I dived for the ball and of course it jumped right straight up about six feet and I got a whole face-full of 246 real estate. I think Doc might have stepped on me once in the middle instead of once on each end, he added thoughtfully, but of course Doc was after the ball and not noticing much. Yes, said Ned, it ' s just that way, you can ' t tell which way they ' re go- ing to bounce. Why I saw a girl fall and — Aw rats! You ' ve got less sense than a Freshman with his first girl! Why I meant — but what ' s the use trying to explain? I guess I might as well tell you about our little fuss before you die of curiosity like any other old maid. Ned said nothing. Well, it was this way, he continued, you know Eleanor has got an awful — that is a rather generous mouth, and I started making remarks about it. She got sore and you bet I was having as big a time as a Prep beating on the steam pipe. Pretty soon, though, I saw I ' d taken it too far. I toned down considerably and begged that she would forgive. No, she wouldn ' t. Then I got real dignified, put on my best manners, and made a nice little apology. That didn ' t make any impression on her so I thought it was about my time to get sore and I did. Of course I wasn ' t really sore but I just wanted her to hurry up and thaw ou Right there was where I missed my guess; in- stead of thawing out she froze up all the more. ' Mr. Coe, I think this has gone far enough, ' she said standing up and throwing her head back, her black eyes blazing. ' You mean you want me to leave? ' I said staring at her like a Prep. ' You may do as you please, ' she said haughtily and left me standing there wondering whether I was a real fool or only a foolishly inclined idiot. Ned started to suggest that Frank Rountree might have had something to do with Eleanor ' s sudden sensitiveness about her mouth, but he noticed another muddy football shoe under the bed and he especially disliked to see the com- plexion of the walls treated with such utter disregard for conventionality. Be- sides there was another complexion present which Ned wanted to look espec- ially well that night when it was brought near the laughing grey eyes and per- oxide hair of Susie Ford. Two weeks later Burley sat moodily contemplating the dull red roof of the Annex. Entered Ned in great excitement. I Old woman, I ' ve just heard about it, he exclaimed. Heard about what? demanded Burley curtly. Why, said Ned much surprised at the mood of his companion, the — er — rescue out at the picnic of course. I guess I might as well tell you about it, said Burley gloomily and Ned seated himself comfortably. I Well, they were rowing around in one boat and never-stopped-talknig. Bess Clark and I had the other. They rowed down the river and climbed out on that loaf of concrete that covers the big spring right there opposite the pump. Then Frank Rountree got smart and jumped into the boat leaving 247 Eleanor standing there. Of course it was a joke and Frank was standing up in the boat laughing and everybody on the bank was laughing too. Then all of a sudden he lost his balance and over he went. Well we were watching him swim out when it occurred to me that Eleanor might not like the idea of standing on that bump in the middle of the river. No, ' ' said Ned thoughtfully, I shouldn ' t think she would. Of course there wasn ' t nothing to do but rescue her, so rescue her we did. I was wondering what to say as we got down near her when Bess called out, v ' Want to be rescued? ' ' I sure do! ' she laughed. As we touched the rock she jumped in and when we reached the bank she hopped out, said, ' Thank you so much; ' and then everybody watched Frank drive off in somebody ' s buggy, his spirits as wilted as his new yellow suit or his purple tie. Well, said Ned, what are you so glum about? Have you got your date yet? Date, cried Burley in a?tonishment, Ned, as I ' ve always said, your brains could be likened to — Ned carefully calculated to four decimal places the time necessary to move from his chair to the end of the trunk should Burley decide that the water- pitcher was none too dignified to be moved through the atmosphere by rapid means of locomotion. Burley, you ' re a fool. You ought to get you a date right away. Yes, I know I have foolish tendencies. I ' m the sad victim of environ- ment, but as for a date, why — Ned looked at his watch; it was nearly three. He sprang up and left the room for he knew that Eleanor had a two to three class. The bell rang as he entered the Main Building and he hastened to the third floor in time to meet her in the hall. Ned was a born diplomat and he smoothed back his pompa- dour confidently. 1 hear you ' ve had quite an experience, he said. Indeed I have! I was so afraid I would fall off I didn ' t know what to do. So you just stayed still. ' Of course, idiot. But you were rescued at last. Yes, Mr. Coe and Bess Clark took me ashore in the other boat. It was mighty nice of them. ' ' Oh, by the way, said Ned, glancing about and seeing that the hall had been deserted, have you a date next Saturday? No, I haven ' t, Ned. Then I ' d like to make one for my Old Lady, Burley Barrington Coe, Esquire. But Ned— D m a 248 m lifts G What, you would turn down the one who probably saved you from a watery grave, or at least a bad cold? No-o- All right, I ' ll tell him you ' ll be delighted. But Ned, don ' t you know we had a little — little — Fuss about his saying something about your mouth? Yes, I know, but I have written him a three and a half page apology — he ' s learning it right now. ' ' But it wasn ' t his fault. I ' d gotten a letter from papa that morning sug- gesting that I have my profile taken for the Sou ' wester and when Mr. Coe ar- rived and promptly took up the subject, why — I — Told him to beat it? Yes he talks about it in his sleep. Then you ' ll not turn him down tomorrow, will you? All right I ' ll tell him but I ' ve got a class this period and if I want to know what the lesson is for tomorrow, I ' d better drop in. And Ned having thus lied with rare skill moved rapidly down the hall and disappeared around the corner before Eleanor could think to stop him. Ned again entered the room hurriedly and again found Burley moodily contemplating the Annex. Cheer up, old lady, I ' ve got you a date with Eleanor. Aw shut up! The less of your jokes the better. Call it a joke if you want to but you have a date with Eleanor Landis for tomorrow night and I expect she has already borrowed — Shut up! Do you suppose I want to — Now, old lady, I ' ve just finished lying about you, and for you, and have gotten you a date for tomorrow night, said Ned calmly. Burley looked as though the wind had just been sent from his lungs by a gentle kick in the stomach. I know if you got the date you did some tall lying about me, he said at last quietly. Now you can go back and tell her I ' ve taken meningitis. I ' m much obliged to you though for trying to help me out. I ' ll do no such thing. She said it was all her fault and — Her fault! said Burley springing up, why it was no such thing. It was my fault and I ' ll have her understand it! And Ned smiled to himself as he thought how some day he should rep- resent the United States at the Hague Tribunal. The next night Burley returned from the Annex. It could hardly be said that he walked back for he seemed to duck in order to dodge the stars. At last, however, he came down and entered the hall. He went straightway to the water-tank and as he drew out a cupful, he laid his hand caressingly on its side — perhaps he had gotten in the habit, but upon this subject there is no definite information to be obtained. Old boy, he said, I wish I had a cool head on me like you, but you ' ve missed half your life by not getting into some excitement with the ladies. HUGH S. CARTER. a E3 ml : ________ 249 While Jack Waits For An Answer HYon earth don ' t that train come on? It ' s more than two hours late already. I ' m so keen to see if she is much changed, I can hardly wait. Good things come to those who wait, Jack. Well she ' ll certainly look good when she does get here then, for we ' ve had our share of waiting, said Jack earnestly, Mary, you know — O, there it is at last, broke in Annie. The train pulled into the station and Lucile, looking tired and unhappy, stepped off. The bunch surrounded her, each trying to talk a little louder than the other. You can ' t imagine how very weary and exhausted I feel. If I ever have to travel on that local again, I shall simply go insane. I know something about that local, I didn ' t ride but twice every week on it last year, said Jack. They started up the street, all in one voice trying to tell her something. Finally, she understood what the excitement was. They were to have a tacky- party that night, a box-supper the next; in fact they had planned something special for every night during her Christmas vacation. She was disgusted. Would they never get out of this sill y way of doing things? When they reached the business part of town, she realized its short- comings more than ever. There was Mr. Simpson ' s little grocery store with its big red sign. Just inside the door a half-dozen men were sitting on boxes around the little wood stove, laughing and talking in a loud voice. Mr. Adams was standing in the door of his store, in which he had everything from a paper of pins to a barrel of molasses. She sighed as he went out to shake hands with her, but was forced to smile when she looked into the face of this good-humored, honest, little man. She and the bunch started on towards her home. O, these horrible plank side walks! I don ' t see how you can ever stand them! They are thinking of having a concrete sidewalk on this street, said Jack consolingly. O, we just can ' t wait for you to tell us all about your College, Lucile. How do you like it, and what do you do down there? I ' m simply wild about it. I know it ' s the grandest place on earth. I wouldn ' t miss going back for the world. You can ' t imagine how lovely it is to be where there is something to go to all the time, something that you can 250 □ really enjoy. Then the most pleasure is being with up-to-date people, especi- ally after having been cooped up in a country town all of your life. I know I should just adore it. I have such a grand time when I visit Aunt Lily, said Annie. Well, ' ' said Mary quietly, I believe I had just as soon live here as any- where — though we may not have as good a time as you do at College — still I think we have an awfully nice time. O Mary, you — Lucile, tell us some more about your school. O dear, there is so much to tell, I hardly know where to begin. We have a lovely dance almost every night, and there ' s not an evening we don ' t go car-riding or somewhere. You can ' t imagine what a perfectly splendid time we do have! Do you still make good grades like you used to, Lucile? Mary, that ' s a small matter. I make a pass and that ' s enough. They came up in front of her home and stopped at the gate. The house was a large one with great oak trees in front — more pretentious than the av- erage home in a country town. Now be sure and be ready, Lucile, we ' ll be by at three o ' clock. All right. Where are we going, Martha?— Kodaking? I don ' t think we can this afternoon, but we intend going after League tomorrow afternoon when the boys can go. League! exclaimed Lucile sarcastically, do you all still go to League? Yes,— y-e-s. You see it is about the only place we have to go on Sunday afternoon, answered Martha hesitatingly. I think the League is real nice, myself, said Mary calmly, we ' ve im- proved it lots since you left, Lucile. We want you to be sure and come tomorrow. Yes, I will. Good-bye girls, be sure and come by. She walked slowly up the walk between the rows of arbor vitas. She was worried and out of humor. Could she stay in this place ten days? Her mother met her at the door but it was with a sad, almost stern look that she greeted her. Lucile did not understand it but she said nothing. At noon she noticed her father was greatly altered, too. She did not, however, think it important enough to ask the cause. In the afternoon the girls came by in Martha ' s car. They went to the cream parlor first. Here a bunch of boys gathered about the car. By George, Lucile, is it the feathers that make the bird, or what is it? Ah, Ed— Well, it ' s evidently something for you ' re certainly some swell! Perhaps it is the feathers. Now, Lucile, don ' t let that mutt tease you. I tell you I believe it ' s the girl and not the feathers, broke in Jack, looking straight into her eyes. m Di-- — - - - ■■:■■■ ..-- m 25 1 What time is it, Ed? asked Annie. Five o ' clock? O, crank the car, Jack. We ' ve just got to meet that train. O, 1 hear it now. Please hurry. Jack hurriedly cranked the car and they started off at full speed down the graded road. Why were you so anxious to meet this train, Annie? Frank Jones, said Martha emphatically, don ' t you know Annie Collins wouldn ' t be able to sleep for a week if she should ever miss this five o ' clock Cotton Belt? Well, here ' s hoping. They got to the station just as the train pulled in. O, Ed, you ' re as crazy as you look, said Lucile, that thing is net even looking at me. Look, Annie, he ' s looking at you. O, people, iust do look at that good-looking man on the end of that car. O, he ' s tipping his hat to me — I am certainly going to acknowledge it — isn ' t he just darling. The train is starting — let ' s all wave at him — O my, wasn ' t he grand-looking! When Lucile reached home her sullen mood returned and her co nviction that she could not stay there grew. She fussed at herself for ever being silly enough to come at all. By the time she was dressed for the party, she had worked herself up to such an awful state of mind, that she was in no humor to go. All evening her face wore a cynical smile. She was bored to death she imagined; everything was so informal, so unconventional. Lucile, you don ' t seem to be enjoying yourself — you look so solemn — and all the boys who ' ve been around you, too! said Annie disappointedly. Why dear, I never had a better time in my life; everything is just superb. The week passed in much the same way. Everywhere she went she im- agined that she was bored beyond endurance. All the girls had almost given up in despair. The day before she was to return to College, she was seated in the trunk- room with an assortment of clothes, hats, shoes and boxes scattered around her. Her mother called her and she went impatiently to her room. What are you doing, Lucile? I ' m packing my trunk and I ' m in a hurry to get back. Tell me what you wanted. Sit down, Lucile, I want to talk to you. O, Mother, I can ' t— Please sit down, Lucile. Lucile noticed that her mother had been crying and she seemed very worried now. This quieted her, almost touched her, for she had never seen her this way before. 252 □ m )mMimmmm Lucile, I have something to tell you which grieves me very much to say, for I understand you well enough to know what it will mean to you. It will be impossible for you to go back to school. Mother! what do you mean? I mean just that, my dear. Perhaps you have not noticed that I have not been happy lately — I have tried to appear as always. And perhaps you have not noticed that I have dropped all my clubs and never go anywhere. But why have you done all this? Why do I have to be deprived of the only pleasure in my life? I shall tell you presently. Your father bought some oil wells not long ago. He made a great deal of money at first and we felt sure that he would make a fortune from them. But lately it seems that they haven ' t been doing so well and about a month ago we learned that they were no good and every- thing had been lost. By this time Lucile had burst out crying. She buried her head in her arms and dropped on the table. Why d idn ' t you tell me at first — why did you let me plan everything and then be disappointed? I did it for your own sake, Lucile, I wanted you to enjoy your Christ- mas vacation. But I ' ve made such an idiot of myself. Does anyone know of it? I suppose some must suspect it. Everybody will of course know be- fore long. How can I ever bear it? I feel as if I shall die if I have to stay in this place much longer. I felt that same way at first, but I ' ve tried to look at it in a sensible way and I find it isn ' t so bad after all. I wish that you might look at it in this way, too. Mother, please for heaven ' s sake don ' t preach me a sermon this time. Why can ' t we go on as we have always done? Surely we can manage some way. No, Lucile, there is no way. You must — I don ' t want to hear any more. With this Lucile ran out of the room, sobbing loudly. When she had become more calm, she began to think it over. What should she do? She couldn ' t bear to stay in that place — that was a settled fact. She might teach music — teach — how queer that word sounded to her! She, the milllionaire Grayson ' s daughter, teach music! No, she would never do that — well, there was Jack who had worlds of money — and they were going to move to San Antonio next week too — last summer he had asked her to marry him! Hadn ' t she given him a little hope, hadn ' t she told him that she would think about it? Yes, she had — and Jack would ask her again of course, for he was so persistent; true, he was a crumb — could she stand him always? — but anything was better than this life which confronted her. When he asked her again, she would tell him — well, what else was there to do?

All my life long I have longed for absolute conventional free- dom and I was never happy unless I was do- ing something unexpected or forbidden. My old black mammy struck the key-note of my nature when she exclaimed after one of my characteristic escapades, ' Clar to good- ness, but that ' s the beatenest young un I eber saw — he ain ' t like no chile I ebernussed. I still am different — or try to be. The world may be traveling at a respectable pace when suddenly I will veer off to do the unex- pected. My first experience of note at Southwestern took place several months after my entrance — I wonder that I waited so long. I had enter- ed late in the year and had remained for sum- mer school. At eleven o ' clock one hot, sul- try July morning I received word from the fair object of mine affections to the effect that she was coming through Georgetown at 11:28. At one I was scheduled to take an important examination and the rules did not permit any- one to be late. What could I do? Duty said stay, for I knew that there would be no train to get me back in time for the examina- tion should I leave. But love suggested a way and I caught the train to go as far as Burkland with her, checking a bicycle that I had rented for the occasion. What took place in those few moments on the train does not belong to this story — it was not at all out of the ordinary considering the circumstances. My ride back I do not like to recall. The thermometer registered 105 in the shade when I started out — in the sun. Nine miles on a rough country road to go and only fifty minutes to spare. But I made it, finishing the last lap on foot as a puncture had put one of my tires on the bum. ' Twas the self-same damsel who caused me to break out again. This time Georgetown was under strict quarantine lest there should enter some stray meningitis germs. But I had no thought for the public health so I girded up my loins before day, hiked it out to Katy Lake, flagged the local at the Lake ' s Union Station and rode happily through Georgetown into Austin. That night I hopped from the rear end of the Flyer before it hesitated for the water-tank and in consequence limped for a week. I shall not relate fully my many other ex- periences for they are too close at hand — my poker games are obviously unsuited for relat- ing though my original method of playing would, I am sure, prove interesting. I shall only mention a few other experiences and shall let the reader supply the details with his imagination. They include the time I milked Crip ' s cow and tied her calf in the Prep., the time I deserted from the Georgetown militia after being sentenced to five hours extra guard duty for swiping bananas, the time I rode to Austin on a freight engine to meet a chorus lady, ' ' and the time, saddest of all, that my room-mate and I swiped a hand-car and rode to Round Rock and back.

Na- ture did a great deal in the way of giving him a strong pull in life and he was as- sisted by the name he was christened with. Thomas Jefferson was early im- pressed with the greatness of his name and has always striven valiantly to live up to it. The true spirit of JefFersonian simplicity has been his constant aim but he has not yet quite arrived. Puerile Precocity As a student our Thomas Jefferson was a wonder. He had the happy faculty of improvising responses to recitation questions and the funny part about it was that his improvisa- tions were usually nearer right than the facts. Though only a kid, the maturity of his mental processes and the subtlety of his reasoning, astonished his preceptors and they marveled at him. When his Senior Year had closed, it was discovered that he had placed in his cap two feathers, to-wit: Second Honors in his class and First Honors in Forty-two, which wasn ' t so bad, all things considered. He also carried w ; th him a perfectly good rep. in the little matter of classical learning, it being his pastime, so they say, to rest his number twelves upon the mantel-piece while he read Homer in the original, keeping time all the while with his guitar. Commencement day a student said to a kind-hearted lady visitor: That ' s the genius of the Senior Class over there. And the kind-hearted lady looked at Thomas Jefferson and said in a sympathetic tone of voice: Well, well, I ' m so sorry for him. How did it happen? But Thomas Jefferson did other things in College. His guitar we have men- tioned. He also made the Glee Club and he sang in the church choir — that is the tradition at any rate. And he played tennis and tried out for track. Added Laurels No one believed that Thomas Jefferson ' s school days were over nor his laurels all gained when he took his sheep skin from King Bob and bade South western University a fond farewell. After teaching for a year in Coronal Institute, the Dons of Oxford University, (in Oxford-on-the-Thames, Oxfordshire, Eng- land,) which is a pretty fair school of its kind, sent across the seas for him. We want Thomas Jefferson, they said or words to that effect, since the death of Shelley Eng- land has suffered from a paucity of genius. And Thomas Jefferson, being obliging, went. We are not reliably informed as to the events of his career as a Rhodes Scholar in Oxford. Anyhow it is the result of it that we are interested in. We know that he specializ- ed in English and told the masters things about their own poets that they had never dis- covered. He also specialized on the banjo and helped introduce rag-time into Merrie England which doesn ' t seem in keeping, but (Continued on Page 295) r S w - 259 THE SATURDAY EVENING BOAST May 36, 1310 A Bmm® IE a EH Bmllmd He was a Mood Hall hero; she, an Annex Queen so trim; They were seated in the hallway, and the lights were burning dim; But they knew not, as he opened up the game by sighing Love, That Prexy was the umpire on the stairway just above.

It was some exciting moment when the Reception Committee cast me into a Straight-Chair and mur- mured, Mr. Soph, meet MissFreshy. I ' m sure you two will prove to be Kindred Spirits. Oh, the Prophetic Brain of that precious Go-Between! I turned about to find the companion Straight-Chair inhabited by an Alberta a la Queeny, a Dream of Blissful Date-Nights, and then she chirped. Heavens! What Music! Ah, ah, Mischeh Soph, where are you from? queried my Angel Face, casting the light from her large and limpid Prestolites on me. Why they ' re blue, I howled in surprise but she handed me the cold shoulder and two dimpled ankles withdrew modestly into the shadows. Of course I meant her lighters. Ah, ah, er Mischeh Soph, what course are you taking? she cooed with another heart smasher from the surprises. And they are Similar, I sang in a dazed fashion, still pondering on the surprises. Then again she chirped, this time ogling at me understandingly with the blue ones: Why, Mr. Soph, what do you mean? Then I put the dope to her for the next ten seconds. When the re- ception committee said that it was fifteen minutes and I had to hie away, much peeved, she said in a some- what perturbed voice: O, dear Mr. Soph, I do hope you will get to talk to me some more.

Enters a former sweetheart who has married a rival. She announces that her husband has left her again and offers herself to Rondolton. He realizes that his love for her has waned and with impartial scrutiny he discovers that the former freckle on her left jaw has matured into a wart, also that the other charms have deteriorated in a like proportion. He declines her offer and with the delicacy of a sledge-ham- mer, he relieves himself of what would have been to most men an embarrassing pre- dicament. His finances being somewhat dissipated, he resolves to dispose of his famous collection of cigar butts, an old family heirloom. Cata- loguing is necessary and he journeys to town to consult a specialist in antiques. He finds that Gelatine, a beautiful girl, is in charge. Leaving, he leaves a beautiful young girl, thinking such things of men as most girls do, and as for himself, forming a distaste for pocket billards. Rondolton is on hand when she arrives at Dripping Springs and among other things shows her through the collection. Now Ron- dolton is a regular fellow and sees in her new fields for conquest. She realizes the gulf which lie between them and repels his advances — but against her will, finds herself attracted by him. She informs D ' Herpicide that she can- not return to Dripping Springs but will send an assistant, Rolico, as a substitute. Chapter XLVI. Gelatine Touroulane was reclined deliriously in a spaciously upholster- ed business chair, which rested grace- fully upon the highly polished floor of her private office in the building occupied by the reputable firm of A. Snipesnatcher, Fifth Avenue, New York City. Her face, which was supported by her comely chin, lack- ed its usual placid business expression. This was to be e xplained by the neat sheet of paper which lay still as death upon the desk before her. Those briefly penned lines: Dear Gelatine: — Don ' t send Rolico; come yourself. You will not be annoyed by my pres- ence — am departing for Sprinkle to- morrow. Sincerely, Rondolton D ' Herpicide. Vague, apprehensive thoughts coursed through her usually decisive mind. Her woman ' s intuition ques- tioned the safety of exposing herself to the fascination of the masterful Rondolton. Reminiscenthetically, her thoughts coursed back retro- spectively over the events of the withered week. Now Gelatine realized fully the dangers attending her return to Drip- ping Springs. With firmness of de- termination radiating from her tense features, she suddenly raised herself to her full length, and with the ma- jestic air of one to the manor born, she swept the room with her now steely gray eyes, which at last came {Continued on Page 306) 263 THE COEDMOPOLITAN Impressions of a Co-educational School In the University A gong clanged four times, the hour was ten o ' clock. Books closed, doors opened, classes sauntered out noisily talking and there was general contusion. It was a most propitious moment to see the students of South- western University in the midst of their daily activities. There were giddy Freshmen, aloof Sophomores, friendly Juniors and marvelous Sen- iors, all on their way to chapel exer- cises. A pleasant murmur of happy voices filled the air as the students entered the auditorium and took their seats — Freshmen and Sophomores down stairs and the Juniors and Sen- iors in the gallery whence they look- ed with academic disdain upon their less advanced fellow-students. Then the Dean walked sedately to the pul- pit-like desk and rapped for silence. After a song, the President intro- duced the speaker of the morning, an old friend of the institution, who immediately began addressing the sea of young faces before him upon the responsibility resting upon them as the coming men and women of our country and the necessity of their utilizing to the fullest extent the great advantages placed before them, etc. Chapel over, everyone made a dash for the door, but, no doubt due to their foot ball and basket ball train- ing, none of the students was serious- ly injured. Around the girls ' door of the auditorium, a group of eager fellows soon gathered, waiting only till the fair one for whom they were waiting appeared. Soon the stairs were filled with couples on their way to the library or class. Some of the girls were apparently deep in the mysteries which only girls know how to pretend they have. Most, how- ever, were condescendingly and un- concernedly carrying on common- place conversation — these are always of necessity commonplace — with the young men at their sides. These are known as cases. ' That one doesn ' t amount to much but this one is really serious. The latter turned and walk- ed on down the hall at a snail-like pace till they reached the chemistry laboratory. A few rather dignified looking boys strolled into the room, some whistling and preoccupied others busily going to work . Three or four in big black aprons anxiously watched the boiling of some concoction that must have been unpleasant; they al- ways are. The room back of the stairs was the Dean ' s office. He opened the door and came out but everyone seemed delighted to talk to him. Evidently this Dean was not like or- dinary deans. But the case walked (Continued on Page 292) 284 6IPTINBIR I INCIr tiodys tfazine Ittead A LITTLE BULL btj TOMMY LAYTON 265 ENYBODY ' S MAGAZINE A LITTLE BULL By Tommy Lawson THE most important thing in the world is a table of statistics — the only greater thing is publicity and when the two are combined, it is timeto sit up and take notice.

Mush in Enybody ' s Magazine. I have fol- lowed his work from the time he be- gan to publish verse in the Magazine of Southwestern University up till now with a great deal of pleasure and interest and I wish to compliment the progressive publishers of Eny- body ' s upon securing the work of so great a poet. The ease with which he passes from the sublime to the ridiculous is marvelous and truly indicates the greatness of his mental caliber. His ode to LOVE is wonderful! How much a poet must have seen and ex- perienced to be able to write such a masterpiece! Every word seems to come direct from the depths of his heart! And such a heart! All hu- manity is embraced within its boun- daries and love of love vies with modesty in reigning there. Pray give us more poems by this poet. Do not withhold from your many readers one single comma from his pen. The reasons are manifold but it may not prove amiss to specify one of the untold benefits that will accrue: only think of the interest that will be taken in Nature when your readers have watched the sun rise and set in his poems, have seen the storm clouds gather over the face of the deep and have heard the piping notes of the plover as it tells us that the world is well. Enthusiastically yours, Sophia Spinks. Excelsior, Missouri. THE HONOR COUNCIL Allow me to make a few remarks concerning the article in your last number dealing with the Girls ' Hon- or Council of Southeastern Univer- sity. While it appears that the system has worked admirably for all con- cerned at Southeastern, I do not fa- vor the plan for general adoption for a number of reasons. In the first place I do not believe that it would ever be possible for such a plan to long endure without there creeping in petty prejudices and small spites which would prevent the true course of Justice. Of course, while I realize that, as Mr. Brieze has point- ed out at Southeastern, it is possible for a large body of school girls to govern themselves harmoniously for a time, I do not believe that that condition will persist. Will not the girls themselves on the coun- cil be inclined to be less severe upon their friends than upon their, say, rivals?

And I ' m glad to be here. The getting here was a te- dious process. Isn ' t it a funny feel- ing to be way off from everybody and lonesome right in the middle of hundreds of other homesick Fresh- men? College is grand! and this one the nicest of all. It ' s awfully be- wildering at first and I got lost in the long halls. The dining room is a regular din but I love the cheerful sound. Matriculation comes tomorrow! I just feel it in my bones that the professors are going to try to cheat me out of half my credits. I see prep looming forth in the near vicinity. Did you ever go. to prep, Daddy? No wonder you turned gray early in life. Yours, about to be matriculated, Abby Judott. Dear Daddy Long-Legs:— Behold me! A full Freshman with no conditions attached. In spite of all the fun poked at us, who ' s nicer than a Freshman? Matriculation was worse than any nightmare yet I pulled through with a full fourteen which was better than some poor unfortunates could do. As a side issue of the day I also met just bushels of nice boys but am of the same opinion still — that Carter Owens is the nicest one here. Our tastes agree in everything. Yours, through the first degree, Abby. February 5. Dear Man: — Oh fhe most wonderful thing in the whole wide world has happened to your Freshman prodigy. My pen is stepping on its own heels, I ' m in such a rush to tell you. But I guess I ' d better begin somewhere near the start or you won ' t fully appreciate the importance of it. You remember, don ' t you, Daddy, reading in the papers about Ted Martin ' s spectacular plays? If you don ' t, he ' s the grandest ball player that ever was. Oh I ' ve seen his pic- ture just lots of times and it ' s worth looking for through all the Sunday papers. Anyhow, everybody, girls and boys, especially the girls, worship the very ground he walks on. He has been called a flirt but I ' m sure he isn ' t any such thing. But the girls do run after him till they ought to be ashamed. 27 1 LADIES BUM JOURNAL The climax is coming. Are you sufficiently impressed? At the last Annex reception I talked to him half the time. That was triumphant enough but when in French class, right under the Professor ' s nose, he asked me for the next date 1 could have hugged the world. Instead I took it out in almost swooning from sheer delight. Just as I was recover- ing my normal equilibrium, the Pro- fessor fired an irregular verb at me that completely reduced me to a helpless state. I regained just enough sense to let Ted know I ' d be de- lighted. Won ' t this Annex get some sur- prise next date night? I can just see popping eyes and gaping mouths hanging over the banisters and out the court windows when I sail down in glad attire to meet him. Of course, being just a man you can ' t comprehend it to its utmost. But you are the only someone I know and I have to tell somebody or burst with the secret. Yours, in the clouds, Abby. P.

Dearest Daddy: I guess I have the worst luck of anybody— Abby has outdone her- self. You haven ' t forgotten what I wrote you last time, have you? Well, neither have I. But alas! by the time date night came I had a good crop of measles and was literally covered with red splotches and my eyes swol- len clear to. I was packed off quite uncere- moniously to this white ' cotted room — but don ' t you tell, Daddy, I carried a picture of Ted along to keep me from getting lonesome. Even if I can ' t see I can feel. I ' m so thankful you can ' t see me now and there are four others just as marred in beauty. Don ' t you feel for the poor nurse? Yours, in a red spotted world, Abby. Later: — I was just deciding that life was a bore when the nurse brought me a long green box from the florist. On the inside were white carnations and Oh! — guess whose card? No, it wasn ' t Carter ' s. Hold your breath — Ted Martin ' s. I tried to impress the nurse with the card but I ' m afraid she wasn ' t properly awed. I hope all the girls opened the box in the office and saw the little white square with his name on it. Ugly but happy, A.J. P. S. — Isn ' t it nice that Ted can ' t see me now? But maybe I ' ll be like the Ugly Duckling.

Coat sweat- ers, thirty per cent over-size will be in greater vogue next fall than ever. How even the illustration shows one of the most exclusive styles to be found anywhere and we predict that it will be much sought after. Its chief charm is found in the initial S with which the sweater is decorated. Its significance may be ambig- uously interpreted. Another bewitching garment for early fall also ap- pears on this page. Our artist met with considerable difficulty in securing this model as it is being guarded carefully against copying by its originator — Paquin of Paris. The material used for this — or these — is an exquisite quality of Crepe ie Chine. Lovely indivi- dual variations may be secured by attaching dainty cuffs and cufflets of Cloisonne lace to the sleeves and, er, er — inferior sleeves of the garment.

My answer is both yes and no. Every girl should set for herself a code of eti- quette and except in a few unessential details, there is no good reason for her to change this code. Of course no girl wishes to make herself conspic- uous and when the accepted customs of the school to which she goes have nothing inherently improper about them, it would be better for her to conform with them. But there are possible occasions when a girl could well afford to make herself conspic- uous by refusing to do as Rome does; some of these I have touched upon in my answers to girls in this issue of the Ladies Bum Journal. BUYING RAILROAD TICKETS Two of us girls have been invited by two young men to go to the foot ball game in a neighboring city. Should we purchase the railroad tickets or will the young men attend to that? Please let us know at once for we are so worried. J. S. This certainly is an embarrassing situation. I suggest that you have two of your girl friends purchase the tickets and keep them for you until you find out whether the young men have purchased them. Then if they have not you can get the tickets from the girls without exciting suspicion. SHOULD A BOY POWDER HIS NOSE PUBLICLY? What should I do when I am with a girl and want to powder my nose? Is it proper to ask the young lady to excuse me and turn my back, or just what should I do? E. L. H. Why, just go ahead and use your powder rag if your nose is shiny. The girl will probably never notice you anyway. 274 NUMBER 6tri£e PRICE ONE THIN DATE UNKNOWN nor A PPAYER 275 STRIFE The Prep stood on the railroad track, The train was coming fast.

Saw-bones wishing to differ with him, interrupted with: Mr. President, I was down on the Gabriel the other Sunday and I could spit almost all the way across it. San Jacinto President — Mr. Dor- sey, you are out of order. Saw-Bones — I know it, if I hadn ' t been, I could have spit clean across it. Miss Root was discussing the suf- frage question and in reply to an in- terruption said: Professor Moore, you can ' t tell me a thing about this question. I ' ve been reading up on it for months. TURNER Prof. P- -a. — How much are the tickets to the Annex Reception worth? Ellison — Well, since you are a pro- fessor, I ' ll sell you one for a quarter. Prof. Pegues (jokingly) — You ' ve been playing poker, haven ' t you?

For days and weeks and months it has been our chief concern, and now that the copy has been all submitted and only a few days remain before the appearance of the book, we have already a feeling of regret that our labors are so soon to close. — We wish here to express our appreciation of the efforts of all those who have contributed to whatever success the book may attain. We have felt the loyalty and intererst of the great majority of the Student Body of South- western and have endeavored to respond by putting out the very best year book withi n our power. To those who have made special contributions to the book, be they stories, verse, drawings or jokes, we desire to express our sincere appreci- ation of their co-operation. We wish especially to thank Prof. McGinnis for his inter- est, suggestions and more material contributions. His unstinted efforts have served to improve both the interest and standard of excellency of the book. Prof. Pegues, also, has endeared himself to us by his genial interest and his confidence in us and and our purposes. — To Branson Coltrane the Sou ' wester is most deeply indebted. He needs no eulogy as an artist, for his pic- tures speak for themselves. In addition to his drawings, how- ever, he is responsible for the greater part of the designs in the book. To these he applied himself without reserve, even neg- lecting his college work in order to serve us — and you, the readers of the Sou ' wester. Of the success of his part of the book we are assured, and we wish to place ah of this credit where it justly belongs. Finally we wish to thank our advertisers for their patronage. Without their assistance the book would have been practically impossible, and we have no hesitancy in be- speaking for them your trade.

Gertrude volunteer- ed, provided that in c ase of accident they would give her a decent burial and send her violin home packed carefully. Then she prepared for the fray. A drab suit, gold-rimmed specs, a bonnet and shawl, and a satchel completed her make-up and she turned to Elizabeth with: Now, little daughter, stop crying; I ' ll get you a Hershey; and she bade them all farewell, leaving them excited and tremulous. With gracious dignity Mrs. Hughes wel- comed a distinguished (?) looking lady into her office some three minutes later. I am Elizabeth Floyd ' s mother, ex- plained the visitor, and I have come very unexpectedly to see her and I just now re- membered that I had forgotten to bring the child anything. I thought perhaps you might tell me where I could get some candy. ftlk® M®irs[ai(gys from Page 260) Why, yes indeed, replied Mrs. Hughes. I have some candy that the girls are all very fond of. It is called Hersheys ' ; would you like to have some? That will be the very thing. Let me have fifty cents worth, please. Rattling her keys importantly, Mrs. Hughes suggested that they send for Elizabeth. I ' 11 just phone for the dear child to come down; she will be delighted to see her mother. Oh no, anxiously said Mrs. Floyd, frightened by the suggestion. It is unnec- essary for you to go to all that trouble. I shall find the way to her room all right. And I am certainly obliged to you for the Her- sheys. The girls would have been so dis- appointed. And she bowed herself out of the room, both hands full of Hersheys while Mrs. Hughes settled herself with a clatter of keys and a sparkle of jewels, murmuring: Our girls have such dear mothers. 286 The Wolff Marx Go.

In a very few minutes the halls were deserted and study reigned. In the Woman ' s Building It is quite a dangerous thing to attempt to quote girls ' conversation — it never looks on paper as it sounds. The expression, the emphasis, the gestures, cannot be reproduced. But here is an attempt to give some of the things that were heard in the An- nex a few Sundays ago. Mary, I sure do like that dress; turn around, let ' s see the back. I ' m glad you do. I ' m afraid it doesn ' t fit but I like the style. Women can always interest them- selves in clothes and fashions but there was another group discussing a more serious subject. Well, anyway, (a useless word always found in girls ' conversation,) I liked that sermon and believed every word of it. It says in the bible to go teach all nations and I think most of us are mighty no-count. We just set up and say we are Christians and don ' t do a thing to prove it. For my part I ' m going to get busy. Good, agreed one of the listen- ers, but did you girls notice the hat that that Gildersleeve girl had on? Wasn ' t it perfectly splendid, this from another group, I ' ll declare I ' d rather hear Prof. Pegues read than anything in the world. I just almost die. The speaker was a tall, vigor- ous girl, in splendid health and one could not easily imagine her near death ' s door. I am simply sick to go home to- day. I want to see my mother more than I ever have before. Oh, Jane, the idea. You ' ve said that every other day and you know you ' re as gay as a bird. Of course, all of us want to see our families — and we will too before long. Goody. Of another group one seemed to be reading a newspaper while the others were languidly listening. I just hate men! Listen to this. Here ' s one who says that women should not be allowed to vote — their place is the home. Just so you sweep, cook, sew, and work like dogs they think you ' re perfect. All men are brutes. I never expect to look at one again. But these ideas did not meet with general acceptance. How ' bout you, honey, do you hate ' m too. With a soft giggle the one address- ed, replied: No, I choose ' em — especially one. After all, girls are just girls and it is beyond mere man ' s comprehen- sion to understand them. 292 For Past, Present and Future Reference We are Yours for Good Work and Courteous Treatment THE PALACE BARBER SHOP V f - th 2 rl yS9 t Wilcox Brothers Jewelers and Stationers Watch and Jewelry Repairing a Specialty We Frame Pictures £ 293 Take the children to the seashore this summer, There is nothing healthier or better than sea breezes for growing children.

B. degree with second honors, which you will admit was going some for a Yankee. Then he returned to Yankeeland with the said A. B., a cap and gown and bunny fur as evidence of his education. He also brought with him an acquired taste for English humor, a banjo, a guitar and the scull with which he had helped pull St. John ' s to victory on the Thames. Somebody suggested a job with South- western and he intimated that it would do for the time being. So the Board of Trustees elected him Professor of Physics and then asked him if he could teach it. He said he could — in September, and he did. His career in Southwestern is too near at hand to be history and it is history that we are dealing with. We might say here though that he is still trying to catch up with that name and, incidentally, is making good. His great- est disappointment has been the stubbornness with which his mustachios have remained in hiding despite his coaxing. However they too may yet arrive. 295 A New Fable in Slang {Continued from page 262) to your gran-daddy to talk to Miss Greenhorn till it liked to have been a case of Satin Linings and Silver Handles for little Willie. Some years later, I rowed back to her shore and found her gazing tenderly at the in- truder trying to determine where he resided. When I anchored close to his Straight-Chair, he looked a bit dis- concerted and set sail for foreign ports. And then my Jane became so Rapturous she was fairly Incoher- ent and gurgled like an after-dinner Percolator but made me savvy that she returned my Affections Arduous- ly. When the Incandescents blinked at ten-thirty I used Strong Language but as no one was looking she placed her Lily White Lift over my Graf- onola and put a Quietus on me. I gathered my courage for a climb for All Dates and, Man, she handed them over like a Birthday Present. When I turned up for a Fond Farewell, she clung to my paw like Dough till I had to wrench myself loose and beat it. O Man, she ' s a Hummer; she ' s the Limit; she ' s a Go- Getter and a Come-Fetcher; she ' s the girl who put the Love in Loveliness. Raving again, Cop, get a cage, said the Long-Suffering Room-mate. Listen here, I got it Straight, she ' s gonna beat it in the morning for the Family Domicile at Pfluegerville ' cause she couldn ' t get in the Prep. Do you gather me? I got you, Steve, said the Sophomore as he flopped for the Count. MORAL: Be Leary of Love at First Looks. STRAIGHT TALK {Continued from Page 268) But as I see it, the greatest danger would lie in the fact that the girls, so long as there was placed over them, someone with the authority to veto or overrule their decisions, would not have self-government but a poor and farcical substituteforit. Mr.Brieze admitted that at times the persons in authority overruled the girls ' de- cisions and permitted exceptions to be made to the laws of the Council and he also stated that the laws gov. erning the action of the girls were made, not by the Council, but by the persons in charge of the dormitory. Well, I ' m like thelrishman Dommed if I see any Independence in thot. If the system has worked so well at Southeastern it is because the girls are angels, not co-eds. Yours faithfully, Hiram Hanks.

Dear Daddy:— Being a mere man you aren ' t in- terested in spring cleaning but I ' ll make you listen to this. Sallie and I have started a grand house clean- ing — if you can call a twelve by four- teen room a house. As first on the program we mu- tually agreed to dump off the various photographs that decorate our dress- er and that so effectively hide the mirror. But the trouble arose in trying to decide which should be dis- carded. Sallie wanted me to take down Ted ' s foot ball picture. The idea! She must have been crazy to suggest such a move when she had two of Dexter Blanton ' s smiling face, and he ' s nothing wonderful at all. We tried to make Julia decide but I think the poor child feared for her life ' s safety so chose to keep on the safe side and refused to choose — said it was a tie between the two. Hon- est though it wasn ' t any tie. Anybody with eyes could see Ted didn ' t take up half the space that Dexter mon- opolized. Somehow Sallie couldn ' t see it that way and Julia wouldn ' t, so we settled it by letting them both stay there and by sending Carter to the bottom drawer of my bureau. I ' ve turned the alarm on for five in the morning but I know when the thing begins to go off I ' ll choke it from Page 272) and turn over and sleep on sublime- ly unconscious of all good intentions as to early rising. It ' s time for the Annex ghost to walk. Good night, ABBY. P. S. — Ted is an angel. Darling Daddy:— Whom do you suppose is grinning at me from the dresser as I write — Are you prepared for the greatest shock of a life time? Carter, the res- urrected! I knew you ' d gasp and shiver. I am sorry to say it but I do be- lieve Ted ' s a flirt. I denied it be- fore but experience has taught me better. Will Freshmen never learn to take advice from their elders and upper classmen? I buried his remains in the waste basket and wept buckets full of tears. It took the united efforts of Sallie and Julia to restrain my wild grief — but then we went into gales of laughter. Wouldn ' t Ted Martin be peeved if he could see how we took his de- sertion. Anyhow Carter is the nicest boy in the world with no exception. Yours, in deep mourning, Abijah Judott.
