TEXAS tec i T is with a sense of regret that we, the Staff of 1914, end our connection with this volume and offer it to you for criticism or praise. We have attempt- ed to condense the activities of this year so that they could be portrayed in this one volume, when they de- serve many volumes the size of this. Our record is nec- essarily limited to only a part of the year as the events that come after this book has gone to press are not in- cluded in this volume. We have labored diligently to avoid mistakes of all kinds and we wish that such as do occur may be pardoned through consideration of the size of our task and the length of time in which we have had to pre- pare it. We have forgotten all of these obstacles and cheerfully re- gard such occurrences as part of our increasing store of experience. We wish to thank the entire student body for their co-operation and to forgive them for the trouble caused by their delay. Although we have made Chapel talks to you and accused you of unnecessary delay, we are truly thankful to you for the assistance you have ren- dered. It is only just to say that without assistance, both financial and literary, this volume would never have been published. If in later years this book helps you to remember the pleasant things of your college life, we shall feel repaid for the efforts expended in the preparation of the Sou ' wester of 1914. sW s rw 7mcfr f s t - t ' pSbu ' WESTED v - y cSTAFF o- i- ci«.  t: HJf f- {££°£ ' iJ - ' Tt w -- ' v c ' â– ( - Contents Book One Academic Book Two Fitting School Book Three Organizations Book Four The College Year Book Seven Athletics Book Six Literature Book Seven Advertisements :=s=- r ibc as.

Bridgeport Clio; Y. W. C. A.; Executive Commit- tee of La Tertulia, ' 13- ' 14. Lisle has been with us for live years, and has come to acquire the distinction of being a landmark. During her first [our yenrs she was somewhat of a grind, but in her last short months she has eclipsed all her loyalty to Dame Fashion. J. P. Lackey, A. B. Rice He comes and goes and says nothing. He is an associate member of the School Teacher ' s Union. When he is not studying, he either plays tennis or goes fishing. f f ' i ir f.i- f i M. O. McDowell, A. B.

Hupple-Cupple, everybody ' s friend, will ma ' e a success when he learns that brevity is the soul of wit. All smiles and laughter, but has the ability to think deeply. He has won the hearts of all and will long be remembered for his good work, smiles, visits to the girls and as an all-around college fellow. Julia Mangum, A. B., Uvalde M She has spent few hours in hard study, but is of such an inquiring disposition, that knowledge has flowed in upon her of its own accord. She will be remem- bered as a steady devotee of philosophy, and as a long time heroine of the basket ball fields. Sophie Meachum, A. B. Rogers Honor Council, ' 12- ' 13; Student Assist- ant in Biology, ' 12, ' 13- ' 14; President Woman ' s Self-Government Association, ' 13- ' 14. Here is a lady whose virtues are many!

A great orator, debater and accom- plished in all social graces — these were all gained after his four years as a Freshman. Cupid has played havo: with his studies, but his dignified bear- ing, Iong-windedness and improved Senior looks will carry him safely through. Martha Onderdonk, A. B. San Luis Potosi, Mexico Alethean ; Alethean President, ' 13- ' 14; Magazine Staff, ' 13- ' 14; Megaphone Staff, ' 13- ' 14. She has spent the greater part of her life in Mexico, and the greatest part of her college career running the Span- ish Club. She adores English and Moon Light and Maple Leaf. Quite the most impressionable Senior we have, but well liked for her whole-hearted generosity. Ruth Stark Pittman, A. B. Cleburne a a n Clio; Pan-Hellenic Council, ' 12, ' 13- ' 14. Ruth, on account of her partiality to town acquaintances, has rather neglect- ed the Woman ' s Building, However, she is well known in the University, and is a great friend and confident of the Dean. She has proven herself most efficient as the leader of the church line. R. G. Ransome, A. B.

B., Georgetown Z T A Nette was nicknamed Tiddo on her arrival at S. U., and carried this un- dignified appellation all her Freshman year, but during the progress of her University career she has so impressed all with her dignity and aloofness as to entirely lose this erroneous title. A constant wearer of the S sweater, and most accommodating in giving rides in her auto. Stuart Simons, A. B.

I may not be handsome, but I am darned good looking. Doc ' came to us from Coronal with a reputation for football and good steady work. He has continued steadfast in both, and awes the Freshman with his dig ' ni! e 1 .riien. L. U. Spellman, A. B.

It took him three vears to learn not to hold up hi? hand in class. He is a firm believer ir nodeni languages, in lact he likes to debate on any subject. He never lacks for the want of energy, and we are sure that he will make a success in the future. Florence Stanford, A. B.

Florence is a born worker; hence the lact that she is interested in neariy everytiimg in college. She r.as always been well known and well liked, and will be well remembeied in the years to come.

If you would know the record of this i enowned Senior, only turn the pages cf this college book, and you will find at least a part of her record written thereon. She is the Heal of every am- titious Freshman boy, and leaves be- 1 ind her a vacant place in college af- fairs, which will be hard to fill. I. K. Stephens, A. B.

A.; Choral Club; Presi- dent Clio, ' 13- ' 14; Graduate in ' Piano, ' 12- ' 13; Favorite Page. ' 12- ' 13. The frivolous Mary of last year has come back to us, but with such a changed aspect that we hardly know her. Her last year has been one of hard study, end of strict abstinence from all co- quetry. Alvin R. Vetter, A. B. Paige Barb San Jacinto; President Ministerial As- sociation, ' 13- ' 14; President German Club, ' 13- ' 14. Dutch spends his time seeking a profession.

We pre- dict for him a successful career, and can only wish for him that he keep up his feifthful work. Orus Emory Vivian, A. M. Springfield, Mo. A. B., Emory and Henry College; Alamo; Student Instructor in History, ' 13- ' 14. One who has been among us only one year, but has made himself known, first, by his far-off, distant attitude toward the fairer sex; second, by his philo- sophical trend of mind. Annie Go Watson, A.

She is great on Chemistry and Philoso- phy, and a God-send to less fortunates forced to dig their way through these fields. As friendly as she is great, we know that she will sympathize with us both in our sorrows and in our joys. Both professors and students think her ideal. }- L 40 J. O. Webb, A. B.

Red has had flaps put on his pock- ets so that he can carry a tune in Miss Gillette ' s ear-training class. His record while here has few equals.

He is lavishly extravagant with his tongue. Dr. Seay says Carl ' s special- ty is Metaphysics. Does Carl know? He seldom visits the Annex, but every- body likes him just the same, for we know he does everything well that he undertakes, and his lines of activity are varied. Ruth Pauline Morgan, A. B. Georgetown Alethean. Ruth is the brunette. She doesn ' t like to stay with us very long at a time, so she stops frequently and teaches school. We are quite sure, however, that this will not be her fate long, for her brown eyes and curly black hair speak for themselves. 41 Beulah Ellis, Piano Blooming Grove Orchestra, ' 1 3- 1 4 ; Universily String Quartette, ' 13- ' H. Beulah, our musician, has been with us only two years, but she has learned to make the piano talk. Her sweet smile, low voice and sympathetic nature have helped her winning many hearts. Vera Murfee, Voice Lubbock Alethean; Choral Club. ' 12- ' 13. Another Clarendon representative and one who has made herself well known during her three years in school. Her chief duties are two — to get to chapel in time to lead the choir, and to finish 1 er recital on the schedule night. Emily McKee, Art Velasco $ M Clio.

Modest and quiet is she, but possessed of an infinite deal of wisdom. Famed for her reading, and for her dreamy brown eyes, which have wrought havoc in the hearts of many. k Tabby Smith, Expression Corsicana AAA Y. W. C. A. Cabinet, ' 13- ' 14; Alethean. Tab is noted for her executive abili- ty, and as the star of all the college plays. She is possessed of an ample amount of impressive dignity, but has with all that a cherry smile and a genial nod for every one. She will invite old wrinkles with mirth and laughter. Beatrice Turman, Expression Uvalde $ M She is the one who tells our fortunes and makes us sad or glad. She has many friends, and even though she looks independent we cannot but think that she can be persuaded. Beauty and wit are her constant companions. Anna Williams, Expression Daingerfield AAA Clio. A little girl is she. but when she enters, the place becomes bright. Neatness, gentleness, sweetness are her three chief virtues. Senior Poem We Senior students will be leaving S. U. soon, We have had a happy morning, now we ' ve reached a glorious noon. May our evening be as pleasant, when, in other lands we roam, As the evenings we have spent at our dear old S. U. home. There are many of our teachers we have loved through tears and sighs. We have seen both scorn and merriment that sparkled in their eyes; Too innocent to surprise us, too good to fail the class But, Oh friends, you ' d be surprised at the tests that come at last. Now, turning to the members of the Senior Class, We find that for each other we have labored to the last; The work that we ' ve accomplished, through union, has been won, And we know you will miss us all, when we, Seniors, are gone. And now, dear S. U. students, we wish you all success, May your every future effort, with happiness be blest. We leave you for the present, but in the years to come, We hope to meet you in the State, when your work here is done. 3 1 44 45 Juniors Colors White and Gold Flower Daisy Officers J. W.

It was first organized when the Honor System was inaugurated at Southwestern, but later established the Megaphone which it has successfully directed during these six years of its existence. Last year it relieved the Athletic Association of the re- sponsibility of publishing the Sou ' wester and this venture, like the preceding one, has proven quite satisfactory. Honor Council W. D.

The system has worked successfully, 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 members are chosen by the various colleg? classes.

The attractions for the season 1913-14 were as follows: Schumann Quintet, Miss Wilmer, Monta- ville Flowers, Boston Musical Club, Edmund Vance Cook, Lincoln McConnell, and the S. U. Glee Club. Next year Dr. Manchester, head of the Music Department, will work in conjunction with the Lec- ture Committee to aid in the selection of attractions, and we feel sure that the people of Georgetown will be given a much better series of entertainments than has ever been given here before.

First Step ' Tis the night of the formal And all through the house Is a rustle and bustle As though a wild mouse Had been loosed in the parlor Of the Kappa Sig House. Two men in the bath tub Are taking a plunge, One in the corner is using a sponge; Two Seniors are shaving, One combing his hair, Two more in the hallway Are dancing the bear. A Freshman exclaims I ' m a freak in these duds, And in rising crescendo; Who in got my studs? A Junior affrightened, Gee, I ' m in a fix, I ' ve got all the rest, but My suspenders are nix. Three Sophs in the parlor are singing a song That is brought to an end By the clang of a gong. In full dress, half dress, Third dress and none, All rush to the table To fight for a bun. At last they are ready And impatiently wait For the cabs (?) and taxies (?) That always are late; The honk of a horn, A rush through the hall, Then flash away, crash away, Dash away all! Two Step Silence on the Potomac. All ' s well. Third Stumble Dear father, kind father, Please tear a check loose. My course is a fright! The price of my books Is clear out of sight. The way these booksellers Go out and rob Is causing my ruin, Dear father, from Bob. 151 Kappa Sigma Founded at University of Virginia, 1869 IOTA CHAPTER Established 1886 Colors Scarlet, White and Emerald Green.

Practically one-third of this amount has been subscribed. The loyal citizens of Georgetown and Williamson County raised over $50,000 in thirty days for the erection of the Williamson County Science Building and the fund is steadily growing. The Fine Arts Building is the most pressing need to accommodate the de- partments of Music and Art and to re- move the crowded condition of the Woman ' s Building. With the erection of these and the Y. M. C. A. Building, Southwestern will have the most modern complement of university buildings in the South. .166 5 m Lh sgm: UBS i!7?veJ{5 West Texas Club Flower Cactus Blossom Color Bloody Red Officers R.

Manager Tom Stokes is on hand and establishes training camp at Katy Lake. An oak patch is put in commission as a gridiron and fall training begins. Plenty of bathing, hard work, good food, and extra sleep are rounding the men into shape rapidly. September 17: L. E. White arrives and looks the town over. Being satisfied with the prospects he decides to try his hand at teaching Math. This is not sufficient to occupy his time so he employs his extra time and ability as Coach of the Fight- ing Fitters Football Team. September 20: Training Camp still in operation. Coach Snipes reports fine prospects for the coming season. September 22: The advance guard of the student body be- gins to arrive. Red White is among the first and goes im- mediately to work. Picture No. 1 shows him in conference with Miss B. D. Dobie in regard to — well, that ' s his business. September 23: Freshmen begin to come in flocks. Any ob- server at the Katy station can see them piling off, long and short, fat and thin, all shades and sizes to suit anyone ' s taste. September 24: Actual registration begins. The air of work prevails everywhere and even the old students are thinking about beginning. The new store, picture No. 2, across the way is the rendezvous for the boys and serves temporarily as an Old Stu- dent ' s Club. September 25: In spite of Faculty edicts to the contrary, a little rhining is still in evidence to the new students ' sorrow as picture No. 3 shows. September 26: Of course things in Mood Hall would not be in shape without a little Poker. Picture No. 4 shows the re- organization of the Poker Club. None but charter members are in the picture as the Fish are not wise to the rules and regu- lations as yet. September 29: The new students have to stroll around to see the sights and picture No. 6 is the result of such a jaunt. The members of the group are not Preps as would be expected, but are some of the original inhabitants of the Ridge. September 30: A little surprise but at the same time a help to the campus are the caps to the original posts of our arch. See picture No. 5. October 1 : San Jacs open for new members with a frenzied appeal from O. T. Gooden. Of course it was some talk and quite 180 181 ' n -fe fi -- JL a number of Freshmen joined. The Alamos were not to be out- done and old reliable Jno. B. put forth his spiel and the Alamos had several raw recruits on hand. Monday night the Fish got their first view of Paradise, that is, the Annex. The first reception of the year was attended by all and good looking girls were in abundance. Sad to relate, the lights cut the affair short as there was no moonlight affair on the program. October 3: M. B. Hall is elected Business Manager of the Megaphone. We are sorry it could not have been editor as he has a strong line of talk but Curtis had him out-winded at this point. October 7: Poly descended on us in force today and often making a hog pen of the field and a corn cob of the ball. The score was to 0. Coach Snipes stated that the Katy Lake bath- ing helped out some but was not enough to win the game on ac- count of lack of bathing suits. (See picture.) October 1 7 : Picture no 8 shows an exciting event in the game with Daniel Baker, but again our boys were unable to score, but also kept them from scoring. Probably the cause was the lack of the original oatfield of the training camp. October 20: The Seniors pulled a football game tonight, but no pictures made. Flash lights were out of the question because of the brilliance of the Senior boys. October 24: Coach Whites warriors went down in defeat at the hands of Austin High. The Dummies were defeated by the bunch last Monday. The reason for the change of result, per- haps, lies in the Coach. A certain Annex Freshman is visiting for the week-end in Corsicana. Picture No. 6 shows the down before the first score made against the Dummies. We couldn ' t show the Austin High game. Can you blame us? October 26: Prof. Tinsley took his geology A class out for a hike today. Quite a number of things were found, in addition to geological specimens. We hesitate to name them. For par- ticulars see Harry Robertson, Betram Hedick, and some other of the ladies ' men. October 28: More rain and a big wreck near Katy Lake. Several track men were discovered by their ability to walk to the scene. Pictures Nos. 2, 3, 4, 5 and 7 are some aspects of the double accident. October 31 : Halloween night, rather dark with a little touch of rain. Plenty of pep among the town boys and some excitement in Mood Hall. Results shown November 1 st. See that date. 182 wm r- 183 November 1 : Results of Halloween are rather disappointing. In spite of all indication all the stunts were rather tame. November 1 : True Halloween spirit manifested in a Ghost Celebration at the Annex. Goblins, ghosts and spirits are much in evidence and the cold eye of the other world spirits dampen- ed the scenery but the spirits of all present were high and merry, in spite of or rather helped on by the semi-darkness of the corners — a la Stuckey per Hamlet. November 3: Picture No. 8 shows the train that took our force to Austin for the State game (?) Score unnecessary and the reason unknown. A little idea of the game can be gathered from picture No. 7, likewise 9. Nuff sed. November 7 : Recent improvements in the library helped not only the librarian but also the customary short chats that take place in this quiet, secluded spot. November 10: Prof. Gray ' s Sunday School class took a hike today. They dodged our photographer but we tried our best. They proved themselves rather fast by making the trip to Lion ' s Head from the Prep in twenty-five minutes. There wasn ' t a slow minute for all this time and in spite of the fact that they came back in couples the trip to town was rather fast, too. And this was by a Sunday School class. November 1 3 : The West Texas cowboys, girls and other specimens met today and organized. This group is a composite one, but they have the pep ' ' and speed so characteristic of the wild and woolly West. The official branding iron was selected and the royal keeper selected. All other offices were filled and the ranch is in good shape for the roundup. November 18: A slight breeze sprung up today. The in- tercollegiate debaters have started to practice for the great event in February. November 1 9 : The football team returned from their trip today with a big collection of hard luck to their record. How- ever, Coach Snipes is confident of his ability to beat our old rival, Baylor, when the Thanksgiving game is played up there. November 2 7: In spite of the mud and other unfavorable weather conditions our team defeated Baylor in a well-played game today. They ably upheld the Thanksgiving habit. Pic- ture No. 1 shows the effect of the boys in Georgetown. A night- shirt parade was carried out in honor of the victory. November 28: The parade didn ' t begin to exhaust the pep. See pictures 4, 5 and 6 for an idea of the celebration 184 185 carried out today. School was forgotten and the boys and girls joined in a big procession with snake dances and such to liven things up. Bear in mind the dances were executed by the whole crowd not by individuals. December 1 : Rain. December 2 : More rain and wetter rain. December 3 : Still more rain. The San Gabriel was higher than ever before. Excitement was at the highest and every boy that could went to the bridge to see a real river. The pictures were obtained by great personal danger to the photographer and are of great value. In addition to the danger, his pressing bill was greatly augmented and his classes were forced to suffer. All sympathize with him in his great trouble. December 4: No trains on either the I. G. N. or the M., K. T. The telephone girls are almost worked to death by homesick (?) boys trying to send word to their families as to conditions here. But the wires for the most part are down and outside conditions uncertain. December 8: The Prep-Scrub football game offered a per- son ' s money ' s worth today. The game was lively from the start to finish and several fights took place. Pictures of several were obtained but they were barred by the National Board of Censorship. For this reason we have failed to publish them. The sum total of all the amusement was Preps 6; Scrubs 0. Freshman Carter and his teams did good work and succeeded admirably well in acting natural. December 10: Mail of all kinds was received today and a smile is on the face of nearly all the students. Just think of getting three or four letters from one ' s dearly beloved ' ' on one and the same day. Well, that is what happened to quite a num- ber and the smiles are the results. No personal cases need be cited. December 1 1 : Exam, schedule for the fall term posted and frowns succeed some of the smiles. However, the prospects were encouraging for the most part and all the Freshmen can tell you the exact hour of the day on which they will leave. December 1 9 : As Exams, are over we will be forced to cease our ravings until after the holidays are over. Everybody has left with good plans and faint but far-off expectations of return here January 2. 186 187 January 2 : As Georgetown is a dry place several of the boys arrived with consignments from the nearby seaports, but all effects of such do not show themselves to the Faculty. January 5 : All the students are back and the winter term is started off to the tune of cold weather. January 9 : Seniors forget their dignity today and celebrate v ith a supper at Boat Rock. It was a time, unchaperoned (see picture 3), but all went well by supper-time as two chaperons were then produced. The main idea was to do things on the sly with a rush, and quite a number of things were forgotten in the hurry. This characteristic prevails in the Senior Class Affairs. January 1 5 : Charity Bazar held at Mood Hall. Contrary to custom the articles were given away thus contributing the name Charity Bazar. All articles sold were Christmas g ifts and a man can be free with them. January 1 7 : Big excitement prevails over the coming elec- tion. All manner of posters, campaign cigars, and such are dis- persed by the candidates. Any good grafter can secure all kinds of presents and such for votes. Ask Old Time Gooden. The posters that were photographed were not all in evidence but a creditable representation of them were. Coltrane demonstrated his ability as cartoonist and materially aided the chances of his candidate. January 19: Prof. Moore ' s Sunday School class enjoyed an outing today. Picture 2 shows the personnel, Crip Fairman in front as usual. Lion ' s Head served as a destination, but it was the trip both ways that counted. January 22: Excitement begins today. Dr. Cody is ex- asperated but unable to stop the noise. The Suffragettes get their chance to show their ability and do so by lectioneering and voting. Votes were attained by the good looking girl that would have cost the election of the candidate if used the other way. Ask Jno. Hutchins or Harvey Radey. It is rumored that they sold their vote two or three times. But they couldn ' t help, their looks are against them. Picture 4 shows the ballot box in the ex- cuse office. It served as an excuse for quite a number of things that day. Miss Hawthorne and Miss Mouzon were much in evi- dence but the results were worth the means. January 30: Rev. Talley reports that Bastrop, the editor ' s home town gave $2500 to the campaign; also that Editor Ran- some was there in person. Who said that personal solicitation doesn ' t pay? 188 189 February 3: Coach Snipes left today with his basket ball team for a tour of the State. The material is good but the results of the trip are doubtful. Why? February 7: Picture No. 1 shows Hupple Cupple hard at it about 2 A. M. or later. Of course he has to have the money and we don ' t blame him for late hours. February 10: The Juniors decide that the Freshmen can ' t beat them, and in spite of bad weather hike out for a picnic this afternoon. Picture No. 2 shows them on the march. Other pictures obtained but barred from publication. February 1 3 : Southwestern, represented by Barnhart, Milli- ken and Stuckey, defeated T. C. U. here tonight. The advertis- ing preliminary to this is shown in the picture in the January calendar. February 1 5 : Preps defeated Coronal in true Varsity style today. Picture 7 shows Voight ' s crowd and picture 4 shows the goal that won the game. The crowd wasn ' t very large but the old saying that two ' s a company and three ' s a crowd ' ' applied to those present. February 1 7 : Sophomores feel the call of spring and take a day off, too. Pictures 3 and 6 show them at their river retreat. Sou ' wester staff represented by Jeff Spivey who stated that good times and eats were for once on a par and both at the top of the ladder. February 20: The Seniors were not satisfied at the first attempt at a picnic so an oyster fry was enjoyed at Lion ' s Head today. The crowd left rather late and returned later still, but Mrs. Day couldn ' t kick as the Senior married men with their better halves acted as chaperons. The photographer was barred on this jaunt and his results do not show. Pace and his mule were caught in the brush and Miss Smith and Mac had a ride. Picture 8 gives a vague idea of the affair. February 26: Picture No. 5 shows the pitching staff hard at work. All the men are showing up well and the prospects for the season could not be better. February 28: Everybody is discussing the Interclass track meet for the 1 0th. All classes meet except Seniors and select captains and prospective entries. The Seniors thought it beneath them to compete in such minor matters. March 6: Everyboy went to wonderful Wilbarger ' s Point today for the picnic. Quite a number of accidents, events, and i so 191 such a beautiful day! The scenery was well observed and some pictures were obtained. These are omitted by request. March 9: Down South Minstrels performed tonight. The performance was full of fun and true minstrel stuff. The ladies in the ring added to the looks of the crowd and amused a packed house. Every man did his part well. The ladies were better than well, combining good looks with ability. Editor Ransome demonstrated that red, blue and black ink can all be slung at the same time without bad effect to the user. March 1 6: Big Interclass Track Meet. Freshmen walk away with things, also first place. Picture No. 1 shows Hoyle just as he broke the string. Picture No. 2 shows Nelms in the pole vault. The altitude that he reached may be estimated by the fact that he is above the housetops in the background. No. 4 shows Spruce in the sensational finish of the mile run. No. 5 shows Neeld in the high jump. It is just as easy for him to clear the bar as it is for Graham to run. No. 6 shows Chebie leading the bunch in the hundred-yard dash. No. 9 shows Boyle and his newly dis- covered ability. We knew that he had plenty of wind but didn ' t know he used it in this way. March 18: Baseball season opens today. Austin League took this practice game just for the fun of the matter. But our team worked hard and showed plenty of class. The attendance showed that Baseball is still the National pastime. The Manager had enough smile on his face for three men, as a result of the box receipts. No. 8 shows the excellent diamond and the team just ready to go in the opening game. March 23: The foreigners, that is the Chinese, didn ' t have pigtails down their back but they could play ball just the same. The game was close but their hitting won it by a score of two to one. As evidence of the fact that they are true Chinese we offer picture No. 7. March 24: Student body meet and criticise the conduct of the Athletic Council and adopted resolutions to that effect. No substantial results as to principles involved were gained but free admission to three practice games was allowed. Don ' t attempt to criticise the man above, it ' s not good form. March 3 1 : The editor gave orders that the book was to go to press the next week and the remainder of this diary can be seen by applying to the writer. He is bashful as to his identity and would not permit his name to be signed but may be obtained from the Editor. 192 193 Alamo-San Jacinto Picnic The Alamo-San Jacinto picnic is always celebrated on either Alamo Day, March 6, or San Jacinto Day, April 2 1 . This year the weather man was kind and the weather was just right on Alamo Day. All the student body adjourned school and repair- ed to Wilbarger ' s Point for the day of fun and excitement. Of course the fun started as soon as the announcement of the date was made but business began to pick up — excuse the expres- sion — when the day was at hand and everybody was getting ready to go. The girls all went out in wagonettes. Dr. Bishop declared the place too far for them to walk both ways and as such boys as Red White, Hupple-Cupple McDowell, Dunnam and Tubby David expressed it, the walk home, accent on the home, would be much better and Dr. Bishop finally consented to their plans. For personal endorsement of the plan thus carried out, see any of the boys mentioned above. A general idea of the good time enjoyed by all may be seen from the extreme popularity of the old stumps and small bushes as illustrated in the pictures. The first incident of note, but one our photographer failed to get, was rather inauspicious to say the least. One of the young ladies of the party fell in the creek with an awful splash and some cold, wet clothes as a gentle reminder. She hurried off home, changed clothes, came back and spent an enjoyable day after such a wet beginning. The big event, but not the one of most importance, was the dinner. The remains on the tables, not tables but table cloths, showed not only the appetite of the crowd, but also the excellence of the dinner prepared by the Mood Hall and Annex cuisines. After the remains had been cleared away, the sports began. They were quite numerous and varied, but our photographer failed at his duty. However the biggest event of the day was the work of the famous pair, Mr. Chris J. McLemore and Prof. T. J. Mosley. Their work was for most part on the guitar, and the mandolin with vocal accompaniment. Loud applause on the part of the audience attested their popularity as well as the merits of their selections. After several others had been finished, everyone started for town. The events on the way were not meant for kodaks. Each couple have their own personal explanations for the delay in reaching the Annex. But all finally got there and the day was brought to a successful close. 194 1E2 15 T ' ?Jl Alamo SAN JACINTO PICNIC J J,-i 195 April First A day of surprises to all but one of a score or so of good ones to the student body. The girls being suffragettes, took the in- itiative today. They came to classes with their own hair down the back in long plaits. The boys were agreeably surprised and sev- eral decided that the girls ought to continue that way. The idea of short trousers for the boys was suggested but they either didn ' t have the nerve or were too modest. The chapel exercises were a joke. The Preps, as Dr. Bishop classed them, occupied the Faculty section, among them Prof. Vaden, Prof. Seay and Prof. Tinsley. The choir was ably rein- forced by Dr. Cody. The student body as a whole changed sec- tions. There was no mixing but the result was rather mixed just the same. The dinner was the next thing on the program. The girls took charge of Mood Hall and the boys of the Annex dining halls only. The menus at Mood Hall were laundry slips and the plates in some cases only a slice of bread. The waiters were dressed for the occasion, tips were willingly received. The graft system introduced has been causing trouble ever since. The Annex waiters were not behind at all, only their coats. The reason for the buttons in the back still remains a mystery. The boys fared better than the girls as they had more space and more to eat as well as excellent service. The only trouble reported was the lack of molasses for Hupple-Couple. This was soon provided and all went well. Immediately after dinner suggestions were made for a holiday and a leap year reception at Mood Hall that night, but this had to be with the consent of Dr. Bishop. As it was not leap year and was class day permission was refused and classes resu med work as usual. However, all was not over then, because about nine o ' clock the fire alarm was sounded and all the boys turned out for the fire. The Georgetown Fire Department did good work and soon had the fire out, but they were not allowed to rest for imme- diately another alarm was turned in and their efforts were trans- ferred to another part of town. In all there were five fires that night and furnished an exciting close to the day. 196 ; iL ' tall ' l- ' - - - A - - . H T ' fl| m t m HI Hi â– u 1.4 ki 197 grp f «W X-ijfl|=J, r o. i.

Snipes ably directed Athletics last year and has returned to the same position this year. Ath- letics under his management have been enlarged and placed on a firm financial basis. A reform of note inaugurated by him this year was the payment of an Athletic Fee, entitling the student to free admis- sion to all Intercollegiate games. This move on his part has also caused a noticeable increase in the at- tendance of the student body at the games. He is indeed to be congratulated on his wise expendi- ture of this fee and for this plan of financing Ath- letics. 204 THE ATHLETIC COUNCIL. The Athletic Council has supplanted the old Executive Committee of the Athletic Association. This body, which has absolute control of all branches of Athletics, is composed of one Alumnus of Southwestern, one citizen of Georgetown, one Faculty Representative, and the Student Managers of Foot- ball and Baseball. Athletics under their guidance are in better shape and better handled than ever before. 205 S Men James C. Snipes Head Coach John H. McGinnis Tom M. Stokes T. H. Harris S. J. Irwin Rector Coffee F.

U. 14 at Houston Nov. 27, Baylor 7, S. U. 14 at Waco 206 Harris, T. H. Half Back and Captain Squid, our Captain of this year, won his place by his hard and consistent playing and this year he lived up to his reputation; in fact he was the back- bone of our team. Dur- ing the year he developed into a punter, his toe add- ing several scores during the season. Squid will be back with us next year, and we are expecting him to do great things. Smith, Damon Center and Captain-Elect Bush made his debut with us last year, hailing from Georgetown High School. This year his stel- lar work at Center won him the captaincy for next season. Bush is literally in love with the game, and under his leadership next year, we feel sure that Southwestern will turn out an Al football team. Betts, Floyd G. Quarter Back Betts came to us from Marlin High where he made an enviable record as a football player, and as an all-around athlete. His size is his only handi- cap, and with the experi- ence he has gained during this year and with the added weight and speed which he will have next season, we look for Betts to break into the lime- light as one of the best quarters in the State 207 Coffee, Rector End Rec is also another Georgetown product, hav- ing taken his primary de- gree in football at the Georgetown High. He has lots of pep, is speedy and full of fight. His lack of weight handicapped him slightly, but he put up a strong game regardless, and we are counting on him next year. Dallas, Russell Guard Big Boy came to us this year, a novice at the game, but by hard, steady plugging he made one of our strongest men. His size and weight made him a tower of strength in the line. With this year ' s experience we are looking for him to break into the All-State class next year. David, J. W. Tackle Tubby entered S. U. in 1911 a Freshman and won his letter by a large majority. He is the man that put tack in tackle. Tubby finishes next year and we are expecting great things of him — he may get married for he is the founder of the David Club. 208 Dunnam, E. A. Full Back Dunnam worked hard last year with the Scrubs, and this year he was given a berth on the Varsi- ty. He plays hard every minute he is in the game, and when he hits the line it means at least five yards. Gates, L. H. Guard Gates blew into school from Missis- sippi, but regardless of this handicap he decided to try for the team. He played a hard consistent game at guard, but his inexperience kept him from hold- ing down a regular position on the team. Next year we are banking on Gates strongly. Graham, B. S. Quarter Back Chebie held down his old posi- tion at quarter this year in such a way as to lead us all to look for him among the All-State aggre- gation. He is full of pluck, scrap and speed, and next sea- son we feel confident that he will break into this All-State company. Hedick, Bertram Hedick came to us from Mineral Wells High where he was considered one of the best back-field men in his part of the State. Although handicapped by be- ing injured early in the season, he show- ed the real football stuff whenever he was in the game. We can safely prophesy lots for Hedick in the football world during the 1914 sea- son. 209 i « : ' .: . .. . â– Is . m ' mllm ' . ' ' . ' X : t ,. , Irwin, S. J. Sock made the team as a sub in 1912, and with the experience, weight and speed he picked up during the year, he simply couldn ' t be left out of the game. Just a little too good natured to really break into the stellar ar- ray, but he says that next year he ' s coming back with a grouch. Well, you had better keep your eyes on Sock. Nuff Sed. Longino, J. L. Half Back Frenchman was one of last year ' s stars on the Scrubs, and everyone knew that he was assured a berth on the Varsity when he donned his uniform and came out with the first squad. It was a common saying among the Scrubs that if you gave the ball to the Frenchman it means a touchdown. This seemed to hold good on the Varsity and his seventy- yard run through the line for a touchdown against Baylor won ' t be forgotten by Southwesterners. Mickle, O. O. Tackle Uncle Billy is a prod- uct of the old school of football, as he has played with Snipes, Headrick, Henderson and such foot- ball heroes as these, who will never be forgotten by the followers of the foot- ball fortunes of old S. U. His six feet four seemed to stretch itself all over the line, and the other team knew better than to try to gain over Uncle Billy ' s side. It is a source of regret to all that this is Uncle ' s last year, and we can only wish that the whole team played the same calibre of football as he does. Nelms, F. D. End It seems almost impos- sible that a man so small as Nelms could hold down the responsible position of end on the Varsity. Yet this was the berth which Frank landed on the team. Weight does not mean everything and Nelms, with his speedy, heady, sensational plays, was eas- ily one of the stars of the season. He has nerve enough for a dozen men, and we are counting heav- ily on him next year. Simons, Stuart Doc came to us from Coronal, where he first learned the football game. A bad ankle kept him out of several games, but he worked hard, and his head- work combined with nervy tackles saved many gains around his end. We re- gret that Doc won ' t be with us next year, as he is another of those unfortu- nate Grads. Woolsey, W. R. Tackle Cardinal is a man who has literally made himself a football player. Without an over-amount of speed or of weight he dug faith- fully at the game until he made the Varsity. He has worlds of nerve, and lots of fight, and his steady, consistent playing won for him the esteem of all his team-mates. 211 Southwestern University Scrubs HE SCRUBS of 1913 leave a fairly good record for the season, and an especially good one for part of the season. Coach McGinnis was assisted by George Pierce in picking and patching the Scrub eleven. Hazel, Williamson and Cullum were the only old Scrub men on the team. There was a variety of new men to pick from and it was due to this fact that twenty-four men were kept on the squad for the whole season. The raw material was well devel- oped by Coaches McGinnis and Pierce and the squad had team- work in spite of the frequent changes in line and backfield. The first game of the season was played with Coronal Insti- tute at San Marcos. This game as well as the following one with the Dummies at Austin was lost on account of the team hav- ing been in training such a short time. But the Scrubs soon came out. The next game was taken from the Taylor Outlaws by a score of 6 to 0. The game with Granger High was won by a score of 49 to 1 4. The fifth game with Belton High went to the Scrubs by a score of 39 to 0. The sixth game with Wedemeyer was played in mud and rain and was won by the Scrubs by a score of 6 to 0. The last and hardest fought game of the season was with the S. U. Preps. This bloody struggle was won in the last few minutes of play by the Preps; score, 6 to 0. The Scrubs were going good during the last part of the sea- son. They often defeated the Varsity in practice games. Of the Scrub players, Williamson, Dabney, Hoyle and Mer- rill deserve special mention for their work. There are others who will probably make the first team next year. The players and officials are as follows: Hazel, Captain; Watson, Haver, Simmons, Cullum, Dabney, Merrill, Radey, Gooden, Gibson, Tucker, H. ; Tucker, C. ; Carter, Robertson, Evans, Hoyle, Dayvault, Boyle, Shamblin, Keese, Lee, Hutchins, Williford, Williamson, Gillespie, Jack Kennedy, Mgr. ; J. H. McGinnis, Coach; George Pierce, Asst. Coach. 212 d £ s £ U UHL nl iD ' fci =t ! 1 - ij - H DgsK L f. ; ., .? 213 BASEBALL SNAPSHOTS — h SL 214 liS N frS O U i_ r r o- , . - £- WL. 215 1914 Baseball Squad Schedule 1914 March 18 Austin League at Georgetown March 23-24- Chinese University of Hawaii at Georgetown March 27 Topeka League at Georgetown March 30 Austin League at Georgetown March 31 Topeka League at Georgetown April 3-4 Daniel Baker at Georgetown April 10-11 Rice Institute at Georgetown April 13 University of Texas at Austin April 21 University of Texas at Georgetown April 24-25 Louisiana State at Georgetown May 1-2 A.

Allison Right-fielder Bunk, a former star of the High made the team in a jump, securing three hits in the first game. Lee Dobie Utility Man Lee hails from Beeville and is rapidly developing into a fast infielder. The change in his style of batting has raised his average. Leland A. Hodges First Base Punk is holding down first again this season. His batting average is among the highest. He hits two-baggers but is too lazy to secure but one. F. P. Jones Short-stop Jonesy, of Valley View, impresses all as the fastest short-stop in college base- ball. He gets everything between second base and the bleachers John Lyons Left-field Johnnie of the sun-garden is still the lead-off man. He rarely ever fails to get on. The little boys ask, Is he Assistant Coach? 217 Jesse S. Nettles Third Base Fruit has been shifted from the outfield to third, where he is developing into a second Yardley. George F. Pierce Second Base Dago, a fast man at short on last year ' s team, is holding down second for us this year equally as well. Some say that here he can be more closely watched by Uncle John. Conley Rush Center-field Rush starts with the crack of the bat and covers as much ground as any man in the circuit.

The gymnasium is one of the important factors in the University affording physical training to the stu- dent body. The purpose of the gymnasium work is to supplement other physical activities, since a large per cent of the students are necessarily barred from taking part in athletic sports. It has been the plan this year to give variety to the work, according to the needs of the classes. For the first term the raw recruits were given various drills, dumb-bell exercises, and outdoor running. During the remainder of the year they have engaged in more advanced work, tumbling, pyramid-build- ing, apparatus work, wrestling, etc. 222 Woman ' s Athletic Association Officers Myra Stanford (1) President Inez Dunlap (2) Vice-President Julia Mangum (3) Secretary-Treasurer Leo Walker (4) Manager Rowena Onderdonk (5) Captain Basket Ball 223 Girls ' Basketball Team Winners of the S (1) Onderdonk, Rowena (Capt) Center (2) Walker, Leo Forward (3) Stanford, Myra Side Center (4) Matthews Guard (5) Dunlap, Inez Forward (6) Rash Substitute (7) Wooten Guard (8) Walker Substitute 224 is , v.: r 225 Parody on Trail of the Lonesome Pine Gibson and McLemore. On a mountain in Virginia, Stands a lonesome pine, All around, There cannot be found Any tree but this lone pine. You may think not But this is the spot of this song of mine, For when lovers take their girls a-woo- ing, They lead them to this pine. In the Blue Ridge mountains of Virginia, On the trail to this lonesome pine, Oh, the way they ' d joke would make you croak, He says, I love you, June, but hon I ' m broke, That ' s why I have led you this way, Tho ' I know all your people will say, ' There ' s a cheap-skate courting our June now, On that trail to the lonesome pine. ' Is this mountain of Virginia there Lived a grizzly bear, All around there could not be found Anyo ne who would go there When it was night And the moon shone bright, High up in the sky. I said I ' d be braver than the rest, Take my razzoo and try. In the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, To trail down this grizzly bear, Oh the stars shone bright On that sad night I searched for him with all my might. Oh soon, yas sah, muchly too soon ' Neath the moon That bear found this coon, In the Blue Ridge mountains of Virginia ' Bout three miles from this lonesome pine. Perhaps ' twas four, Perhaps a little more, That didn ' t bother this Sam. I didn ' t stop to measure, For you know I had no leisure, What ' s more I didn ' t give a — . His hot breath struck me ' tween the shoulder blades. I says, Look here son, There ' s times in each person ' s l ife, When his duty is to run. In the Blue Ridge mountains of Virginia, I made a trail to this lonesome pine, Oh, my feet they flew, I did too, And up in that tree I quickly climbed. Oh, gee, singing there in that tree There sat me, Nearer, my God, to thee Many hours I sang in the moonlight On a branch of the lonesome pine. 226 c_ J3ooA S x , • i : if 1 a - - wJU - EttcK J 1- l f- e — roYTI lice dud. di-UdchCtS according to ?vis iuc)(j I .y toanJer, fro rn. a. sKirt- 1lu,Tton to a. five- %d.ira.t ditlm.on.cL, tndy Ire Ui£ L to repr esent the st indent. 7 ke fills on. 0.

Of course this can take in anything from a fair dame ' s hobby for hammered brass teapots to a 0y£s j r l radical man ' s hobby for Down with the Women. ' Now one particular person, in mind at present, had a peculiar hobby all his very own. Really ' peculiar ' is a good word, for it applies to this person in more things than hobbies. This gen- tleman ' s eccentricity found expression in lectures. The usual subjects were The Sin of Being a Freshman, ' and the general sub- ject, Manners. ' But once was he known to swerve from the usual course, and his interested pupils heard him excitedly ex- patiate on that indefinable subject — ' Love. ' His lecture was in substance like this: There are many kinds of love. We hear much of love for duty, love of one ' s fellowman, love for all the virtues and so on, but what I mean to speak of is love for love — sentimental love. Probably you know and are interested in puppy-love. Bah! such nonsense! A good definition for that sort of love is: Love is the center-pole in the circus tent of unsophisticated Fresh- man ' s lives ' and how they all caper around it! If there is anything that disgusts me thoroughly it is for a man, a supposedly sensible man, to let a soprano voice and soft brown eyes affect him sentimentally. Never, never, and I bear witness to the fact, never would I let such things influence me, at least to the point where it would interfere with, and cause me to neglect my school and chapel duties, and cause me to surprise my English class with tests or anything of the sort. Some men even get to the place where love is to them a far-off, musi- cal strain caused by a musical voice, of which the elect some- times hear the full resonance, and soft brown eyes which cause one to be surprised, spellbound and uplifted, and even concede to the one interested a glimpse of heaven itself. ' Some men 229 think sweet peas are conducive to love and engage them for a season, but that is indeed heartless, for does it not cause the An- nex girls to go flowerless for a time? But I hear they suffer silently and give up such things cheerfully for ' it ' s all for a good cause. ' Also some may think an effective plan to take the fair one of your affections to such plays as Every Woman, ' where the Prince of Love is found waiting on the doorstep to a resi- dence up the avenue east, or on the hearthstone of some place like that. Those are the views you would probably suppose me to have since 1 have been long since a Senior and for several years have had a well-known and honored place in the Faculty as head of the Chair of Freshman English. But these views are radical and since I have been taking music this year and specialized in Voice, it has really softened my heart, and my views have become much more liberal regarding it. Really there is nothing in the world so conducive to love as music for what is love and the human heart but the musical clock which marks time in the symphony of Creation? ' For these last few statements don ' t say that I ' m horribly in- consistent, but be generous and say that for sufficient causes and reasons I, because of my wisdom, changed my mind, and may even myself caper around the center-pole in the circus tent. Needless to say the class stupidly arose and left the class- room as if stunned. Why that strange effect? Certainly it is enough to stun Freshmen for a man, very sane, to startle them with a lecture on Love, when the day before he had told, aided by the blackboard and his artistic ability, the why and wherefore of parapets and aqueducts of Roman architecture. Will wonders never cease? Not as long as people have hobbies, and the fertile mind of one man can contain such a wide range of them — from Love to Bret Harte ' s Poker Stories.

Brother Jim said so when I thought of it. If he only knew how lonely and unhappy and homesick and miserable I have been, how he would tease me! I wish I could see him — and father, and the baby — and the dear old chums — and mother. I long for her more than any one — and brother and some others ' brother. Life is so dreary without them! Annex Trees (Murmuringly) : Take heart, dear Annex Girl. Your home- sickness will soon pass. We have cheered many of your sisters during their stay here. When you are weary, come and sit at our feet, and unburden your heart. Every Annex Girl: Oh Trees, you help to drive away the loneliness which has haunted me ever since I ' ve been here. I feel that you are my friends. But still I am lonely. Ambition: Do not let your weakness overcome you, but climb to the heights which you have planned to reach. Every Annex Girl: Thanks to you, good friends. I shall endeavor to fulfill your wishes. Who is the merry-looking creature coming? Why, it ' s old Happiness, dear old fellow! I have not seen you since I left home. Happiness: I am the friend of every Annex girl, though they forsake me very often. I have come to enroll you, too, on my list of joy-seekers. Every Annex Girl: Oh, Happiness, come let ' s go out together right away. Scene 2. Girl ' s Room. End of the First Month. Every Annex Girl: Oh, Happiness and Common Sense, look who ' s here!

We have been sent by a Mood Hall friend who caressed us, and said sweet words of you to us before we left. We hope you will enjoy our company. Every Annex Girl: Wasn ' t it dear of him! Bless his heart! He is as sweet as you are. Oh, how I love him. Happiness and Common Sense: Every Annex Girl, there is danger in such friendships. They may lead you into trouble. Woe to the day that you are called to Every (Bishops) President ' s office. Good Report: Yes, Every Annex Girl, do not make friends with Pink Note and Varsity Chocolates. They are jealous of me and will try to drive me from you. Every Annex Girl: What harm is there in a good boy friend? 1 will never part with you, Common Sense, but I am going to be sociable. I can not be a stick. (Enter Extravagance and Family). Extravagance: Every Annex Girl, I want you to meet my children. Come, Hershey, speak to the young lady, for you are such a sweet, nutty child. Look at my nice little plump Oyster Loaf. She, too, is good. Pickles, although of such a sour disposition, is liked by many. This little girl always casts a chilly atmosphere about her friends, but poor Ice Cream is not to be censured, for otherwise she is delightfully pleasant. Every Annex Girl: Aren ' t they darlings! I am very fond of all your children, Extravagance, especially your little dark-complexioned Hershey. Come, all of you with me to the tea-room, for Sweetmeat has come all the way from home to visit me. (Enter tea-room.) Dear, dear Sweetmeat, how glad I am to see you! Has Every Matron seen you? You know you are forbidden on this hill. Sweetmeat: Yes, she saw me. I shrank from the look she gave me when I came. (Door Opens.) Every Matron: Every Annex Girl, who has permitted you to keep com- pany with Sweetmeat? Sweetmeat cannot remain with you, but must go with me at once. Sweetmeat: Every Annex Girl, how I wish I could stay with you. Your mother has dressed and sent me with so much love to you. Scene 3. Middle of Second Month. Idleness: Come, Every Annex Girl, lay aside those books, come, let ' s en- joy life. 232 Every Annex Girl: No, I won ' t, Idleness. Only today I received a letter from mother urging me to study hard. I wouldn ' t displease her for anything. But I had forgotten. Fudge is going to meet me on East wing this evening. What! Why, here is Fudge already. Let ' s off to our old camping place — East wing. Fudge (in the midst of the feast) : Look! Here comes Every Matron. Hide me quickly, or blessings on my head. Oh, I do hope she won ' t see me. Every Matron: Why, Every Annex Girl! What are you doing on East wing? Every Annex Girl: Why — er — Fudge and I just ca-a-a-me for fun. Every Matron: This is no place for fun. Fudge ' s place is in the tea- room. I shall report you to the President. Scene 4. End of the Second Month. (Common Sense, Happiness, Idleness, Pink Note and Box of Varsity Chocolates come in.) Every Annex Girl (weeping) : A grade report with four failures. Oh- o-o-o-o, what shall I do? How can I ever write home and tell them! Common Sense: Be a woman, Every Annex Girl. Work hard and Good Report will come to you next term. Idleness: Don ' t worry. Pay no attention to this fossil and staid old Com- mon Sense. Pink Note and Box of Varsity Chocolates: Yes, come on! Come on!! Have your fun. The candy kitchen. He said ten o ' clock. Every Annex Girl: All right, I ' ll come. There really is no use studying. (Common Sense prepares to leave). Why, where are you going, Common Sense? And where is Happiness? Gone, too? Good Report is far away! Am I alone with only Idleness and Varsity Chocolates for company? I am getting tired of them both. Come back, good friends for I never realized how much you meant to me until I saw you leaving. Please come back. How good it is to see you returning! and here is Happiness, too. Farewell, Idle- ness, Chocolates, and Extravagance. Henceforth Every Annex Girl walks only in the train of Happiness and her dear friends in search of that dearest friend of all — Good Report. Moral: Be merciful, be just, be fair, to Every Annex Girl, everywhere. Her faults are many, but who is to blame? N. B. — All due apologies to Every Woman, and its author HUPPLE-COUPLE. 233 Nonsense Written on Purpose ' TWOULD DREADFUL BE.

THE GENTLE ART OF PERSUASION. Once I had a long old worm And he was mighty clever, But when I ' d ask him please to squirm He wouldn ' t, dern it, ever. He wouldn ' t turn, he wouldn ' t squirm, And he ' d be stubborn yet, But in the fire I threw that worm And then he squirmed, you bet! 234 That Reminds Me Being a true story told by the Boys who came back. The train jumped and jerked itself to a full stop and the half dozen passengers climbed off to be met with an insistent Com- mercial Hotel! Baggage, Sir, Swenson Hotel. In a few min- utes the passengers had gotten into the awaiting wagonette and were rattling and bumping down the road. A large, rather stout, middle aged gentleman was in one of the vehicles. He employed himself by shading his eyes from the glare of the road while he looked out of the window with interest. Presently the wagon- ette swung into the avenue past the public school building and in sight of the church spire. The stout gentleman at once became more animated. As prep came in sight he leaned forward, saying half aloud, Thought it was a wonderful building when I went there! He passed the administration building, regarded it with interest and curiosity, but not so lovingly as the less attractive Prep. They rounded a corner and the wagonette stopped. Annex, bawled the driver. The man got out, al- most losing his balance on the tipsy step of the wagonette in his haste to greet a smiling girl who stood waiting for him. I ' d almost begun to think you weren ' t going to get here, said the girl seizing both her father ' s hands. Oh, dad, I ' m so glad to see you I think — I — can hardly — stand — it. Why little daughter, I didn ' t know you were so glad to see me! Oh, Mrs. Lawrence, here is my papa, do come and meet him. Mrs. Lawrence, I ' m very glad to know you. Kate so often speaks of her ideal chaperon. After a time Kate remembered to show her father to the guest chamber and left him for a few minutes, telling him to hurry and be ready or he ' d miss the debate. When she had gone he looked about for a few minutes thinking how different everything was from the days of his own schooling in this very same school. How strange it would have been then for a man to invade the sacred precincts of the Annex. Somebody next door was begging somebody else to come play some harmony Joe — that was different from the songs of his own day! As they came in sight of the new main building he thought, If they were down on the old campus those boys might be the very same fellows who sat on the benches there thirty years ago. They entered the door and Mr. Roberts found himself face to face with a man who seized him with a friendly grip. Tom Rob erts! For a minute Mr. Roberts gave no reply. Then the memory of those blue eyes came to him. 235 Well, I ' ll declare, if it isn ' t old Sam Paine! They had been classmates thirty years ago; and such a meet- ing! I ' m here to see my daughter graduate and it only seems yesterday I was getting my own sheepskin. Don ' t time fly! Say, when may I talk with you? ' ' But they had to hurry in for the morning exercises were about to begin. Of course it was the society to which they belonged that won in the Commencement Debate. They were not surprised — theirs had always been the best! But this gave them all the more to talk about, as they sat on the college campus that afternoon. Tom, do you remember the night we tied the calf ' s tail to the bell and kept the thing tolling all night? That reminds me some of the time we dressed ourselves and blacked up like negroes and even made us sheepskin wigs — the time we stole Old Miss ' chickens, and looked so much like niggers ' that even ' Old Miss ' didn ' t recognize us when we sold the chickens back to her the next day. I don ' t believe these youngsters have half the fun we did, do you, Sam? The most they ever do is a shirt-tail parade when we beat Baylor. They don ' t even teach the Freshmen to swim or make them shine shoes. Yes, that ' s what I think. I remember when the Ladies ' An- nex was built it had fences then, but I believe they call it the ' Woman ' s Building ' now and there isn ' t a fence on the place. The Preps, used to go up there and teach the girls. Think of having dates ' and as for ball games, well the Doctor could never see how ' cracking bones was to be called sport. ' (Dr. Bower, the President of thirty years ago, was affectionately known among the students as Old Morse, ' or the Doctor, ' while his wife was called Old Miss, ' or Jane.) Were you here, Sam, the year we went out to Wilbarger ' s Point after watermelons? No, I wasn ' t here, but I ' ve heard something of it and would like to hear it all. Well, you see it was this way. Bob Harper and John Thomas and I were about as fond of em as ' niggers ' are, and was a very convenient patch about two miles from town. If we walked we couldn ' t bring any back so we were in the habit of getting Old Morse ' s carry-all ' out of his carriage house and going to the melon patch in that. ' Old Morse ' was so old-maidish he knew if anyone moved anything a fraction of an inch from where he put it, but just the same we used the carry-all. That night we got the carry-all out and rattled down the road at a rapid rate. Bob would say to the horse, Pull out a little Dr., you ought to be ashamed to leave so much for Jane to do. ' 236 When we were almost there and turned the corner of the patch, ' Old Morse ' got out from under the seat and said, Bob, hit the Dr. up a little more. ' If the sky had fallen we couldn ' t have been any more surprised. ' ' What did you do? Do! Do! Do!! We got out of that carry-all and ran back to town like all possessed. For days ' Old Morse ' never said a word to us. The Dean was out of town and we knew that when he came back it would be ' good-bye ' for us. One day we were going across the campus to dinner and we saw Dr. Bowen coming toward us. We knew what was coming to us, and we couldn t get away, and when he got up close to us he said : Boys, do you think it is all right for me to leave my carry-all in my car- riage house, or must I sit up with it all night? ' And we told him it was safe, and it was. We thought ' Old Morse ' was entirely too strict on us, but he wasn ' t. I believe he stayed awake at night to think of ways to catch up with our tricks. I remember once he took it into his head the boys were gambling. Well 1 don ' t say we weren ' t, but of one thing I ' m certain we didn ' t play poker scientifically. The Dr. would go around to the different boarding houses and apply his eyes to keyholes. If the boys were studying, well and good, if they weren ' t, they got theirs. One night we worked it out that it was just about time for ' Old Morse ' to drop around. Two of the fellows came to mine and Bob ' s room. We had just gotten as far as Ego te quae plurima ' when we heard the Dr. in the room just below us. 1 had some mush on the heater, cooking for the occasion; the psychological moment had come, so I filled my pockets with the mush and sat down at my Virgil. Just as I got seated in walked Dr. He didn ' t waste time on the others but all the vials of his wrath poured out on me. What have you in your pocket, Sir? ' I looked as innocent as a fly on the wall. Not a thing but hot mush. ' Preposterous! Do you think that any sensible man would either believe that or do such a thing? Mr. Roberts, give me that deck of cards. ' I still made no move to give them up. In an instant he had plunged his hand into my pocket, but in half that time he had pulled it out, covered with hot blistering mush. No one ever heard the Dr. swear, but the silence at that moment was most eloquent. Well, Sam, boys will be boys. It makes me almost a boy, again to have you old fellow — Father — The voice was low but it called to the two men to come back from a trip which had made them thirty years young- er for an hour. Where have you been? Kate went on, Tve looked everywhere for you. Come, we must hurry — . Yes, Sam, that ' s the way nowadays, didn ' t use to be that way when we were boys, did it? Yes, Kate, I ' m coming — see you again before I go. RUTH HORNER. 237 A Few Puzzling Questions No. 1 . Where does the white go when the snow melts? No. 2.

O r - 238 The Old Blue Sun Bonnet EEMS like the flowers are bloomin ' earlier this year than usual, ' ' Uncle Silas remarked as he gazed dream- ily through the morning-glory vines which twined and twisted themselves around the slender posts of the little porch. A patch of blue bonnets in a distant field seem- ed to attract his gaze for it lingered there until Aunt Elvina, sitting in a low arm chair at the other end of the porch, busily pealing potatoes, looked up from her work and answered, Yes, seems kind o ' like it, but it comes earlier every year now — it seems like. She breathed a deep sigh and let her knife drop into the pan of water in her lap while her faded blue eyes wandered out over the green fields. The birds o ' singin ' an ' everything so green an ' purty makes ' u body want ter be young agin, don ' t it? A tender little smile hovered around Aunt Elvina ' s wrinkled mouth. Silence reigned for a few minutes. It was broken by Aunt Elvina, who had been gazing at a rapidly approaching per- son and who rose with a start. Lawsy, there comes Dotty. She ' s a ' comin ' after them eggs I promised her maw for them custards. She ' s got company. That thar young man from Rock Creek is over there a ' courtin ' of Dotty agin. Now, Viny, you don ' t mean to say that Dotty ' ll marry that thar no ' count drinkin ' store clerk ' stead o ' takin ' Jake what ' s got o ' farm an ' a good livin ' . I ain ' t a tellin ' you nothin ' , you talk to Dotty while I go fetch them eggs. Uncle Silas watched his wife pass around of the barn. Been livin ' with ' er nigh on ter fifty year an ' I don ' t know ' er yet, was his remark as he buttoned the top button of his shirt which had been left undone for comfort. Come right in, Dotty, glad to see ye. Come right in and set a ' spell, was his greeting to a tall blue-eyed girl who wore her blue gingham dress and old blue checked sun bonnet with an air and style of her own. I ' m so hot and tired, don ' t mind if I do — even maw did tell me to hurry back with them eggs. She sank back contented- 239 ly into Aunt Viny ' s recently occupied chair. Where ' s Aunt Viny? she asked. Gone to fetch some eggs. ' Uncle Silas took out an old corn cob pipe and slowly began to fill it. The girl gazed dreamily across the country and fixed her glance on the top range of mountains across the valley. Uncle Silas followed her gaze. Ain ' t it purty, Is jest a tellin ' Viny thet it makes a body want ter be young an ' spry agin with everythin ' movin ' aroun ' about you. ' ' Uncle Si, how long have you and Aunt Viny been married? Nigh on to about forty year, but I have knowed Viny ever since we ' s little tots. I remember — and her Uncle Silas paused to strike a match and light his pipe, gave it three hard pulls, and with half closed eyes watch the smoke float out over the row of flower pots arranged on a narrow shelf in front of him. Then he began again in a low, reminiscent tone. I kin rekellect jest as well the first ti me I ever seen Viny. She had on a blue apron with ruffles in the neck an ' a blue sun bonnet on. She was seven then and I was nine. She was on her way ter school an ' she was so proud o ' herself cause she was big er nuf ter go. An ' I was a-plowin ' down ther by the turnpike close to the road when she passed along. I tho ' t I ' d never seed a purter sight. Her eyes were so blue an ' her hair so yeller an ' curly. I wanted tu say somthin ' to her, but I couldn ' t think of nothin ' , but I never wanted to do nothin ' more ' n I wanted ter go to school. I didn ' t say nothin ' tho ' to pa cause there was so many of us, he needed me ter help do the plowin ' so ' s we could get enough lasses and bread. But I kept a sayin ' tu myself some day pappy ' ll send me ever morn- in ' . 1 watched Viny go by with her blue apern and her blue bon- nit. Sometimes a boy walked along with her. I knew him. His paw was rich and he didn ' t have to plough. I hated him cause he didn ' t. One day this boy was a teasin ' her an ' tryin ' to take her big red apple away from her, an ' she was a-cryin ' . I never did know how I done it, but fore I know ' d what I wus a doin ' I had dumb that fence an ' had jurked that apple away from him an ' had left him a rubbin ' o ' his left eye an ' a wipin ' his nose an ' Viny jes looked at me and sed, you ken hev it. ' I didn ' t know whether I was livin ' or dead I was so happy an ' the birds sung jes like they do this mornin ' so happy like. I watched her little old blue bonnet till it was out of sight over the hill. The next morning I was at the fence when she passed. I said, ' Howdy ' an ' she said, ' Good morning. ' 240 That night pappy called me in after the milkin ' was done an ' said, ' Silas, the plowin ' s about over with, you can go to school tomorrow. ' I didn ' t sleep any that night. I had it all pictured out to myself how it would be. I ' d fight that rich boy every day and if any other boy looked at her, I ' d lick him. I knew thet she was going to be mine, an ' I knew she liked me cause she had give me her apple. The next morning Is down to the fence two hours before hand. The sun was jest arising when I got there. Seemed like she never would come. When she did an ' I tol ' her thet I was goin ' to walk with her, she jest said, I ' m glad. ' I uster carry her slate an ' her little primer an ' speller to school for her every day. I wasn ' t very smart in books when Is a boy, never havin ' much of a chance, an ' Viny wus ahead of me in everything cept spelling. We uster stand by each other in that an ' when the teacher wuzn ' t looking, I ' d hold her hand an ' when she turned red an ' said some- body ' d see us, I didn ' t care. But when the boys all got to laugh- ing and teasing her, she would get mad and cry. They didn ' t tease her aroun ' me, you bet. They knowed better than to do that. One day pappy called me in an ' said: Silas, we ' s goin ' to have ter move agin. Going to move to Iowa. We ' d just been rentin ' not having any place to stay for long, so I was getting used ter it. I never had cared much before but this time I went out to the barn an ' fell down on a cornsack an ' cried just a little bit cause I knowed that I ' d never see Viny an ' her little blue bonnet again. The next morning I tole Viny about it. She let her eyes fill up, but she wiped the tears away when I made like I wasn ' t looking. She gave me a sody card with a bird on it an ' she gave me a rosy card for a good-bye gift. I jest said, Viny, very soon I ' m goin ' away but some day I ' m comin ' back an ' marry you, kin ' I? ' She said Yes, ' an ' leaped over the fence and went back home. Uncle Silas took another big puff at his pipe and looked around at Dorothy who was listening intently. Then he resumed. Th ' next time I seen Viny was ten years later. I ' d worked hard an ' had saved up enough to buy me a little farm an ' 1 hadn ' t forgot Viny. There wasn ' t a day I hadn ' t thought of her. Then after ten years I come back to marry Viny. I went to her house. Her maw told me she had gone out walking an ' was to 241 stop at a neighbor ' s for some butter. So 1 jes ' allowed as how I ' d go an ' meet her. My breath most left me when I saw her. She was so pretty an ' she still wore a blue sunbonnet, an ' a blue dress sted of the apron. But she wasn ' t by herself as I allowed. She wus with that rich boy who uster pester her when they went to school. She knew me right straight off. She was awfully kind to me, but 1 could tell she was liking ther rich feller. I stayed an ' eat supper with them. After supper Viny an ' the other man set out on the porch an ' listened to the crickets an ' whippoorwills while I talked crops to her paw on the inside. He told me that this feller on the porch with Viny was a no count drinkin ' man, but Viny had set her head on him. The next day I went down to the old field an ' was settin ' on the fence, feelin ' awful blue. I set there with my eyes on the ground fer quite a spell, when all at once I noticed something blue down in the grass. I hopped off the fence an ' picked it up. It was Viny ' s old blue sunbonnet. I stood there a-holding it for a long time an ' wondering where it came from. Then I heard footsteps a-coming through the grass an ' Viny came up behind me an ' said, Silas, what ye doing with my bonnet? ' I jes said, ' Viny, I ' ve come back here to keep my promise, air ye going to keep yours? ' She turned red an ' said, ' Yes, if yell always think as much of me as you seem to think of my old bonnet. ' Then the birds sang an ' the flowers all looked so purty again jes like they did the morning she gave me the apple. Viny told me later that she had been to the little store across the pasture, an ' jest as she was starting back, her rich feller passed. He was on a horse, running him as fast as he could go, an ' drunk as could be. Viny says she never has been sorry she took me cause she thinks there ain ' t nothing worse than a drink- ing no count man. I never kin fergit how she looked that day — jest like you look now. Lawsy, if there she don ' t come now with them eggs. Aunt Viny came slowly ' round the corner with the eggs, her face flushed and her old blue sunbonnet pushed back from her brow. Here they are, she exclaimed happily. Hon, you ain ' t going, are you? Yes, I must, Aunt Viny. Jake ' s waiting for me down at the fence. The Mystery of the Texas Girl Chocolates H, say, girls, what do you think, exclaimed Alice, run- ning into room 39 at the Dormitory. I won the prize for writing the best story about the Texas Girl Chocolates. ' ' Will pass the candy around as soon as the boy brings it up. It was really so large I couldn ' t carry it myself. Now, Alice, don ' t exaggerate. We are glad to know you won the box of candy, said Cora, a plain little girl from Ar- kansas. Despisable! said Alice, You shan ' t have a bite just for that. At that moment in walked a boy with a box of chocolates almost as big as a house (as one of the girls afterwards ex- pressed it to be). See, said Alice, Did you ever see anything like it. Wait until I open it girls then we will have a feast. She immediately untied the box and oh, such delicious candy. There was candy of every kind. I could sit here and eat all night long, mumbled Daphne, as she popped a large chocolate into her mouth. Yes, and not know that Latin tomorrow, said Bernice, a very studious girl. Their feast as well as their conversation was interrupted by the ringing of the supper bell. All the girls jumped up telling Alice how they had enjoyed the candy. She fastened the top on and set the candy on her dresser. It was forgotten as they talked at the table of exams and other things. Do you know if they do that I ' ll — Oh! Where is my candy? I left it here on my dresser, screamed Alice, as she and her roommate came into their room after taking a walk after supper and stopping for a chat with some girls on the porch. Why Al, said Paphne, you know if you left it there it should be there. , Well, it ' s gone just the same, replied Alice, and I know some one has it. She immediately went to tell the girls in the next room. Soon the story of Alice Carrell ' s missing box of chocolates was known from first to third floor of the Dormitory. C = 243 Every one was thinking the same thing, who could have stolen it? Some one must have slipped in and swiped it while the girls were at supper. A week later two girls of the Dormitory were heard talking. You know, Clara, it is a shame to keep Alice ' s chocolates hidden, said Number One. Don ' t you think we should put them back? Yes, I knew you were a piker, ' said Clara, No, 1 am not going to return them until I get good and ready. Let her worry. The conceited thing, I hate her. I know my story should have been accepted instead of hers and by right the candy belongs to me. Well, if you are going to keep it, why not eat some? re- plied Edith (Number One), who was not really so good after all. Knew your heart would soften, sneered Clara, an excel- lent idea! I believe I will. She opened her trunk and there was the box of chocolates which every one had been thinking of for a week. Surely you will give me more than one piece, said Edith, as Clara handed her one small piece. No, I am not, said Clara, for when we put it back we don ' t want any to be missing. That will be the mystery. See! Yes, I see, replied Edith, and some one else will see if they find that candy in your trunk. But I won ' t give them a chance, said Clara, as she skipped off, singing On the Trail of the Lonesome Pine. Time pased on and it had been almost a month since the candy was taken from Alice. Every one had almost forgotten it. One night in Clara ' s room the girls were having a fudge party. There were about eight girls and they were having bushels of fun. Clara ' s heart had not softened and the candy still set in her trunk forgotten by herself until she would raise the top for something. Where did you say the sugar was, Clara? exclaimed Daphne Broocks, as she stood over the chafing dish stirring some candy. Mercy! I told you once to look in the top tray, exclaimed Clara, forgetting about the candy which was in that particular tray. Daphne did as she was told and to her astonishment there 244 was the missing box of chocolates. She found the sugar and quietly returned to the chafing dish as if she had not seen any- thing surprising. The fudge party was over. Alice and Daphne were in their room and were discussing the party and the new girl who was there. Oh, Al, like to have forgotten to tell you, ' ' said Daphne, But your missing box of chocolates was discovered by Detective Daphne Broocks tonight at the fudge party. What! exclaimed Alice, jumping up and looking at Daphne as if she were crazy, What? When? Why and Where? Truth, replied Daphne, and in Clara Boutwell ' s trunk. You know I was hunting for that sugar. Well, there lay the candy right in the top tray. I raised the top and peeped in; there didn ' t seem to be a piece missing. I ' ll go to her right now, cried Alice, doing her hair up in one twist and sticking her toes into her house-slippers, and tell her she is a regular thief. No, you won ' t, replied Daphne, that would do no good, and you would only be making an enemy. We must plan some way to get the chocolates and let her think some one has discov- ered them in her trunk and has stolen them. Oh! Just the idea. But, Daphne, dear, how will we get them? Why it is just as easy. Tomorrow night you must have a headache and not go to supper. While we are in the dining room, you must slip very quietly into her room and get them. Run as fast as you can back to your room and hide them. Don ' t you see? But listen, Daphne, you know she didn ' t mean to steal them, and what motive could she have for treating me so? Well, it ' s like unto this Alice laughed and said, Proceed, Prof. Broocks, I will lis- ten to your theory. You know she tried to win the candy, but as her story was not accepted she was angry, so to worry you, she slipped the candy, not intending to keep it so long, but not finding a suitable 245 opportunity to return it. Therefore, it is still in her trunk — and that is all. Well, it ' s enough, said Alice. I think so, too, replied Daphne, but you must do as I told you tomorrow night, and we will show Miss Clara Boutwell that she is not quite so smart as she thinks. But, Daphne, 1 am afraid to go and get it. Some one might see me in her room and what would they think. Revenge is sweet. But I haven ' t the nerve. Oh, well, Fraidy Cat! replied Daphne, I ' ll get them and you must tell the girls I have a headache and will not be down to supper. Got me? Yes, said Alice, and 1 think that it was time we were sleeping. So they went to bed, both dreaming of a large box of Texas Girl Chocolates. The next night when all the girls were at supper a figure in a beautiful kimona could be seen silently coming through the hall of the dormitory. Under her arm was a large box, which very much resembled the box of chocolates we have been dis- cussing, and the person with the Japanese kimona was none oth- er than Daphne Broocks, who had been to rescue the candy from its prison in Clara Boutwell ' s trunk. The girls were at this moment heard coming from the dining room. Alice burst into the room with, Did you get it? Get them, said Daphne, Well 1 think I did. Can ' t you smell them? Oh, goody! cried Alice, Give me a piece, quick. I ' m dying for a good feast of Texas Girl Chocolates, ' for they never get old like other candies. Clara Boutwell and her roommate came up from supper and were preparing to study. Oh, yes! exclaimed Clara, I forgot to mention it, Edith, but I received another letter from that horrid Billy Weber. Want to read it? Of course, said Edith, and, Clara, you are silly for not writing to such a good looking human. I think he is dead cute. 246 Clara walked to her trunk. Up came the trunk and horrors! No candy. Edith, am I dreaming? cried Clara, the candy! some one has stolen it! Up jumped Edith, You know that you are joking. No, I am not, said Clara. Come and see for yourself. Edith walked to the trunk and peeped in. To her surprise where the candy had been there was only an empty space. Who could have stolen it, Clara? said Edith, recovering from the shock. Search me. How did they know we did it. There is cer- tainly a mystery, and it must be solved; for, Edith, suppose that it should get to the Faculty that the missing box of chocolates was found in my trunk. Why I would be disgraced forever, sent home and no telling what other kind of punishment. I can ' t endure it any longer, and she fell on the bed sobbing. Now don ' t do your meanest and then squall, said Edith. Best way would be to go to one of the teachers, tell them all and ask forgiveness. Yes, I will, said Clara. The old saying, Be sure your sins will find you out, ' which dad always told me when I got into mischief, has come back to me. I ' ll go to Prof. and tell him all. Then if he is goose enough to send me home, I guess I will just have to go, and she sat up, drying her tears and get- ting the letter out of her trunk, from Billy, for Edith to read. Out on the campus stood Clara and Prof. . Everyone wondering what could be wrong as they were earnestly engaged in a conversation. Oh! Only some mad caper of Clara ' s said one girl, For she is always getting into mischief. No, I know something must be wrong said another, Last night real late as I came through the hall from Eugenia ' s room, I heard some one crying in Clara ' s room. I stopped to listen and heard her say, But Edith who could have stolen it . I didn ' t wait to hear any more as I saw Mrs. coming through the hall and you know I didn ' t want her to see me standing by Clara ' s door, eavesdropping. But gee! girls I ' d give a dime to 247 know what it is. Another girl told me something that she knew and so the gossip went on. Two girls in the crowd knew why Clara was talking to Prof. and knew why she wore such a troubled look all day. Those two girls were Alice and Daphne. But as they did not wish to express their opinion they kept quiet. The Faculty was told of the stolen box of candy and had passed the verdict not guilty on Clara. They discussed it and said it was only a friendly joke and that they knew she meant to return it. They said they would endeavor to discover the miscreant who had stolen the candy from Clara ' s room. But try as hard as they might they could not find the thief. So the search was given up and the Faculty believed that the mystery of the Texas Girl Chocolates would never be solved. One night in Room 39 at the Dormitory the girls were hav- ing a midnight feast. They all had received boxes from home and Alice had asked them to spread their lunches and goodies in her room. There were Alice, Daphne, Edith, Bernice, Cora, and many others and even Clara was there. The girls were spreading the things on papers on the floor. Now comes the best treat, said Alice. She opened her trunk and took out a large box of candy. The missing chocolates! everyone cried, Where did you find them, Alice? Ask Clara, said Alice, nodding her head in the direction of Clara, she knows. Oh! Alice, forgive me, cried Clara jumping up and hug- ging her, I did not mean to be so bad. It was only a little joke. Won ' t you say you will forgive me? Of course, said Alice, kissing Clara. Sure I will forgive you and who wouldn ' t? Dear, I think I will never write another story to win a box of Texas Girl Chocolates. ' All the girls looked around bewildered, not knowing what Alice and Clara could mean. They are still bewildered, as there are only four girls in the Dormitory who know the story of the missing box of Texas Girl Chocolates. 248 - â– .•-. The Woman He Used to Love HEN Elsie and Roy arrived at the home at 1 723 Wescot Avenue, where the Epworth League was having a social that night, they found that they were late arrivals; for there on the beautifully- lighted lawn, boys and girls were having a gay time. Many in- teresting games were played as the evening passed on swiftly. Later on de- licious refreshments were served. After all had been served, suddenly Roy heard some one speaking behind him. Could he trust his ears? As he turned around there in the midst of the big circle stood Jim Bean with a grip in his hand saying, We have met here tonight to give our friend, Roy Cousins, a farewell and bid him Godspeed in the career upon which he now is entering. We shall miss him very much in our circle, and hope that he shall some day be sent back to us as our pastor. As a token of our appreciation we wish to present to him this gift. May it prove useful to him as he travels from place to place to follow the calling of the Master. Roy was so dumfounded that he could utter only a few words which had little meaning. Days had come and gone and Roy had entered the University at As he had been out of school for quite a number of years studying was a very hard task for him; especially so as he was now entirely among stran- gers. There seemed to be no one to whom he could go with his troubles. Often as he was trying to study, his thoughts would go back to the friends who, during the past five or six years, had come to mean so much for him. Es- pecially did he cherish the thought of his friend, Elsie. Many happy hours had they spent together, not because they cherished one another ' s company for love ' s sake, but because life had brought similar sorrows to them in their youth, and because they both had as the object of their life to live a life of service. Often when they were by themselves they would talk of their child- hood days and try to console each other. Sometimes she would play on the piano and he would sing, or they would sing, or they would take some book containing the life and experience of some pioneer preacher, and see how he had followed out the calling of his life. How different now, he among the strangers trying to study and she at home trying to fill the place of her mother who had died a few years before. Very seldom did they write to each other. Just why seemed a mystery to every one. But just the same whenever they met afterwards there always existed that same spirit of congeniality. Even at her home the rest of the family very seldom interrupted them in their parleys in the swing, or wherever they chanced to be. Whenever Roy was on his vacation he would be a frequent visitor. One day while Roy and a member of the Church were driving along the streets of the city their conversation turned to Elsie. It had then become known that she wanted to be a foreign missionary. To this her people were very much opposed. In the course of the conversation the man finally said, Roy, you well know how all of us and her own people love her. We should like to keep her in our own country. Why do you not marry her? For a while Roy was silent, for deep down in his heart he knew what others did not know, but finally answered, I would like to very much, but Two years had almost passed since Roy first went away to college. The time had come to go again. One evening just before he left he went to see 249 Elsie. All had finished their supper and had left the table, but Roy and Elsie kept their seats and were talking about the things of the future. They were both happy for this time Elsie would go to the University, too. During the past year she had attended the high school and during the summer had con- tinued her studies so that she might be able to enter the University proper. She asked Roy many questions as to what university life was, and Roy was very glad to tell all he had experienced during the past two years. Finally he said, Elsie, we understand one another, do we not? And she replied, Yes, we do, and always have. I know not how I could have gotten along without you, for you have always been a great consolation to me. Then why not let me try to be your consolation always, asked Roy timidly, know, Roy, how much I admire you, she replied, but 1 have made mind to have little or nothing to do with boys while at college. But Both You up my after I : silent graduate I should like to find a good companion for life. for a moment, and then Roy arose and said, I must go. Once more the university halls were filled with the gay laughter and noise of the students. There were many old ones glad to see each other again. Also many new ones had made their appearance. Some stood about timidly, seemingly as at a loss to know what to do. Others were receiving some help of the upper classmen over registration difficulties. There in the thickest part of the turmoil sat Elsie and Roy making out their courses. Roy ' s face seemed all aglow with joy, while Elsie ' s appeared just slightly flushed. Both being unusually strict and conscientious in abiding by the rules of the university, did not try to further walk about the halls after their registration had been completed. During the next few days they passed one another in the halls quite frequently and exchanged words of encouragement. But one morning in the chapel the Dean said that the boys must use the stairs on the west and the girls those on the east side; nor must the boys and girls be seen talking together in the halls or at the entrances. From that time on they saw very little of each other except in classes. As they would look at each other a smile would pass over their faces, but even these seemed to be forced. Often did Roy think about writing her a note, but he always remembered what she had said on the eve of his departure. One night there was a reception at the girls ' dormitory. Roy went with the rest of the boys. Most of the time he talked to Elsie, but their old-time spirit and fire of congeniality seemed to have died away. At all the receptions and parties that followed Elsie never did make her appearances any more, being too engrossed in her studies. One day the Arkansas football team was here to play, and as the girls were permitted to have dates Roy took Elsie to the game. Nothing but school life now occupied their minds and was the sole topic of their conversation. She looked as lovely as ever, but he remem- bered two things: he must not interfere with her calling, and forget her reso- lution about boys. And so her first year at college closed without their going together again. During the remaining year of Roy ' s college career he never had an op- portunity, and as he never went home during vacation, as he had to attend summer school, and thus he was never thrown in immediate company with Elsie. During their last year at college they had become so engrossed in their college work that they would scarcely greet each other, but often in the class room she would catch him observing her. Then he would blush and 250 not dare to look up again. Gradually she had become more popular. All the girls loved her, and after holding various other offices she finally became the President of the Woman ' s Self-Government Association, and of her grad- uating class. He was always delighted to hear of her success and silently worshiped her, for he knew what she was capable of doing. He also well knew that he could never fill a place in the world that would be equal to the one she would some day fill, but he had resolved to at least do that which he did, well. And thus often inspired by her success, he strove manly ahead. During all the years he had known that she had a calling, and that he must not stand in her way, but on the other hand in a quiet, secret way try to help her and get her to realize the importance of her calling. Often he would go to the river and there pour out his heart in silence. Many times did he want to talk to her, but never could find the courage. The day of Roy ' s graduation came. He was one of the Senior orators. The auditorium was packed. When the time came to deliver his oration he walked to the front of the stage trembling miserably. There, directly in front sat Elsie, looking up at him encouragingly. With an unsteady voice he began to speak of the service of man, his voice gradually growing firmer. The greatest man alive today is not a great ruler, statesman, banker, or merchant king, but one of the most noble, useful men in the world . As the crowds dispersed she came to him, seized his hand and said, looking straight into his face, That was a grand oration. I think you should have had the medal. Only feebly could he stammer, Thank you, Elsie, you helped me to accomplish all I did. And without any further conversation they parted, she to her home, and he to the little circuit to which he had been appointed. About ten years had passed since Roy had graduated. Now he was the pastor of a rapidly growing rural Church. During his three years of service there, the Church had grown from a mission to a self-supporting Church. He had a thriving Sunday School and had organized clubs and societies. One of these, the Woman ' s Foreign Missionary Society, was doing especially well. This year they had succeeded in getting the State Convention of the Foreign Missionary Society in that Church. Now the world had once more awakened from its icy sleep. Great preparations were in progress for the entertainment of the visitors. The pastor was exceedingly busy in his little room at the parsonage trying to find accommodation for the great number of visitors. As he looked out of the window he saw the surrey of Sister Bower drive up. He was too busy with the list of visitors to notice who was sitting in the back seat. Not until they were coming up the walk did he look up again, but when he did so his face suddenly flushed, for there to his great astonishment was Elsie, who had returned on furlough from her work as a missionary in China. She, having heard of the convention, had come to plead for a cause. As they greeted each other both flushed, but he managed to say, I am so glad to see you. As almost all available room in the neighborhood had been allotted to visitors, it was decided that she should stay at the parsonage. She at once fell in love with Roy ' s wife and the little fellow who was just learning how to talk. During her short stay they spent many happy moments together. Mostly did they talk of their experiences and blessings that had come to them since their college days. She remained a day or so after the convention was over. When the surrey which conveyed her to the depot had left, Roy re- 251 turned to his room and seated himself in his rocker, and then the truth of a clipping which he had made at a previous date began to dawn upon him. Did you ever go back to the woman you used to love after it was all over — the heartache, the self-conflict, the numbness and all that to find in her a friend who understood, whose spirit had grown sweeter, finer, truer than it used to be in the old days when you loved, but did not understand how beau- tiful is such a friendship, and how rare. There is a tenderness between you, a sincerity of truth, a subtle bond of union infinitely greater in its strength and firmness than the old-time passion ever bore. It isn ' t love as the world sees it, it does not ruffle you or make you blind ; there is no swift and frequent alteration of ecstacy and despair; no jealousy or intoxication of the senses, but only peace and natural sympathy, and a subtle, quiet gladness of the soul. You never quite forget her, even though you meet another woman — which you always do — and marry her for love. There is always the fragrant memo- ry of the other woman whom you loved and lost and found again in a friend who understood. Answers to Our Puzzling Questions No. 1 .

The account of this deplorable accident says that the boy is what is known as a Mood Hall Swell Dresser, ' ' and that, in particular, he has a neck built upon such liberal and giraffe-like lines that he can wear a collar of such altitude that it is the despairing envy of his acquaintance. A few mornings ago, resplendent in all his shin- ing expanse of GLAD RAGS, while attempting to get out of a six-lunged Buick car, his foot slipped and he received a bad fall, as a result of which the sharp edges of his collar penetrated his neck, inflicting two gashes that required the services of four veterinarians. This incident scores one against the Mood-Haller for self-sac- rificing vanity, for no Annex lass has yet been chocked to death by her collar, though many a shortnecked damsel has found out what that verse in the Bible means that says: He, being in tor- ment, lifted up his eyes. ' ' The truth is, that we have talked so much about Annex girls ' vanity that we have come to think that the fair sex monopolizes this weakness. Far from it. Boys are just as conceited about their looks as girls are. Of course, we must admit that we have not as good an opportunity to show it, because unkind fate has narrowed us down to a Spartan simplicity in the way of adorn- ment, but what we have we make the most of it. No debutante, fussing over her first party frock, was ever so particular as a boy about his neckties. He does not hesitate to consign two or three to the wastebasket if he musses them in tying, or fails to get the proper set to the string, while no amount of family affection — or any other affection — would induce him to wear a homemade one. Nor can he be persuaded to buy a hat whose crown is a little lower or higher than every other boys — not even if a chromo is thrown in with it. Observe the pains he takes to show his fancy socks, and note that the crease of his trousers is never off his mind. In the class 253 room, on the lawn, in the parlor, the moment that he gets seated he begins hitching at his trousers to preserve the razor edge, and it is worse than useless to attempt to engage his attention until he has been tenderly settled in place. Now it is just as bad and heartbreaking a thing for a tailor-made frock to bag at the knees as it is for trousers, but you never see a girl in public spending her time pulling at a seam in her skirt. But the most amusing and childlike exhibition of vanity of which boys are ever guilty is when one is told that he looks like some famous man, and goes around forever after, in a ridiculous pose, trying to emphasize the resemblance. Are we right in saying that boys are much vainer than girls about their personal charms? Is that putting it too pointed? A boy ' s belief in his powers of fascination never wavers. He never grows too old, too fat, or too lean, to arrogate to himself admira- tion that a girl, in her palmiest days, would hardly dare to claim. The elderly Senior, though he be the homeliest of his flock, can see no reason why he should not fire the fancy, and come up to the ideal of the budding lass who is sweet sixteen and never . Well, what do you really think about the lad, of this caliber? In his own eyes he is, now and forever, the embodiment of all the manly charms and graces, and he can never be per- suaded that any girl would not have the time of her life sitting around looking at him and listening to him. A boy shows his superior vanity to a girl in the way he talks about himself. He thinks nothing of spending an entire evening in a monologue about himself, his amusements and adventures, how he strung that JANE — So and So — and what she said to him, etc., etc. — but no girl would dare try to talk to a boy for twenty minutes about making a hat or dress, and her affairs. Boys are much more susceptible to flattery than girls are. A girl looks a gift compliment in the mouth, but a boy will swallow any kind of a jolly — hook, bait and sinker. This is what makes boys the prey of the adventuress, and amenable to the tactful girl who knows how to judiciously spread the salve. Through their vanity are boys worked and we could better spare a little quality. If men were not vain — but, thank goodness, they are! HUPPLE. The Chaperone All communications must be addressed to The Chaperone and bear the writers name. All questions will be anwered and private answers will be sent upon receipt or a self-addressed, stamped envelope. Dear Chaperone: Please tell me which is the proper finger to put a wedding ring on, also the proper way to act at my own wedding and when it is proper to get married. — J. H. Mc. You had better send a self-ad- dressed stamped envelope and com- plete information concerning your case will be forwarded. Reference: Sears and Roebuck. E. Curtis Vinson: Your contribu- tion could not be used by the Sou ' - wester. I am afraid Editor Ransome would turn it down on account of its Shakespearean authorship. Es- pecially is it true of this passage: The bullfrog sang his jocund fes- tive lay, And all nature seemed so glad and gay- No, Curtis, give us something orig- inal, and don ' t send poetry pilfered by a man greater than yourself. You may make good on your own hook, but not on Shakespeare ' s. Dear Chaperone: Where may I obtain a jack to my French par- allel? — O. T. Gooden. We canot give you an address of a company, but we refer you to Mr. K. E. Barnhart and he can tell you where he got his German jacks. Dear Chaperone: Do you think that it was my fault in losing the de- bate at Waxahachie? — Windy Jew Blair. No, Winfrey, it was not your fault. You were indeed unfortunate in hav- ing incompetent colleagues. It is reported that you made the speech of the occasion. Don ' t be discour- aged, you will succeed yet. 1 ry some more calendars and aluminum and you will restore your self-con- fidence. — x — Prof. White: You say that a Freshman girl has won your love. From the descriptions of the girl nd of yourself, together with the moth- er ' s and the little brother ' s consent, I think it would be a good match- (ett). Dear Chaperone: Am I really popular? — Harvey M. Radey. You are, but don ' t let that worry you. You will outgrow it. Leland Hodges: It is impossible for us to prescribe to that tired feel- ing that you say that you are afflict- ed with. It might be due to various causes, such as indigestion, or a gen- eral debilitated condition of the sys- tem. We have known some cases that were caused by a chronic aver- sion of the mental or physical exer- tion. We have also heard of people who were born tired, but we are sure your case is entirely due to strenuous, continuous labor. Our advice is that you be careful of your diet and take plenty of time away from your studies for recreation and exercise. By no means rise earlier than 4 o ' clock in the morning; avoid all worry and anxiety; otherwise you may injure your physical constitu- tion. Dear Chaperone: Was it proper for us, 2 1 Freshmen, to celebrate the victory over Rice in baseball this spring? — Flemming Carter. We refer you to Mr. Odd Tail Gooden. Last year after Southwest- 256 ern defeated Trinity, Gooden and his Freshmen celebrated with a night- shirt parade. Ask him what hap- pened when he refused to help cele- brate Baylor ' s defeat. We haven ' t the space. — x — Miss Elizabeth Ann Matthews: You say that a Senior boy has alien- ated the affections of your love and that you seek redness. ' Our advice is that you pay no attention to it. The young man is young and irresponsi- ble. E. E. may see his error and return to his former love. Dear Chaperone: (1) Is it a harm to work the professors and to talk to the lady? How often must I see her? (2) Is golden hair a sign of a fierce temper? — Johnny King. No, Johnny, it is perfectly harm- less for you to work the profs., and to talk to the lady. By all means see her every day after your sociology class and walk up the hall with her even if only one time. No, golden hair as you style it, is not always a sign of a fierce temper. As a gener- al rule it is, but you had better inves- tigate. Correspond with her mother and ask her advice. John B. Milliken: I was some- what surprised to receive a commu- nication from one occupying such an honored position in the political, so- cial, financial, religious and scholas- tic world. My first advice to you in regard to public speaking, learn how to speak. In quoting from a great author don ' t say ' Lives of great men all remind us, but Lives of great men all surround us. In speaking to an intelligent audience always re- member God ' s latest and most suc- cessful attempt to bring heaven to earth. 257 Dear Chaperone: Can you give me a good method to learn the logarithm table? I am sure that 1 can pass my Math. exam, if I could learn it. — Guy Bullock. We don ' t know how to advise you. We never learned it, we got by somehow. Dear Chaperone: What must I do for the cranial enlargement that I am suffering with? — Floyd G. Betts. This need cause you no uneasi- ness. It is common for boys of your age to suffer with such, and it was never known to prove fatal. Miss Lucy Mae Agnew: So you want to know what to do to counter- act the report that you are married? Really we do not know how to ad- vise you. We know that the report must have had a very disastrous ef- fect on your throng of admirers. It mainly rests with your inside infor- mation. If you still think you have the pick of the field, deny the base slander; but if all hope is lost, stick to what you have, make a public af- firmation of the fact, retire with fly- ing colors, and quit flirting with the Freshmen boys in chapel. George F. Pierce: We don ' t think that you have any cause for a breach of promise suit, on account of her walking from the University with some other boy at those rare inter- vals when you do not accompany her. — x — Dear Chaperone: I made a date to go to a ball game with a young lady and was to meet her at the main building. During the day she called up another boy and broke the dat e with him. He was ignorant of the date but said he was very sorry 258 that she could not go with him, al- though he had to take pictures that afternoon. I got tired waiting and went to the Annex to investigate. What must I do to prevent a similar occurrence? — Ka(lamity) B(arney) Urban. When you make a date don ' t use a name so much like Kalamity Barn- hart ' s MORAL — Don ' t let the girls call you by a nickname. E. E. White: I would advise you to be careful how many strings you pull at one time. Your best girl might catch on, even though you only call on the other lady and sel- dom (?) take her out. — x — Dear Chaperone: How can a lit- tle boy become famous? I would like to be famous like the Roman Fabian that Henty speaks about. — Jeff Spivey. I believe that you are too small to be thinking of becoming famous. It isn ' t nice for little boys to have such soaring ideas. You had better con- sult Dr. Bishop and he can tell you the evils of such an ambition. Dear Chaperone: I can ' t see the point to this little enigma. A big nigger and a little nigger went a fish- ing. The little nigger was the big nigger ' s son, but the big nigger was not the little nigger ' s father. — Rufus Green Ransome. Ask your mother. — x — Dear Chaperone: Should I have gone to play for the San Jac. Inter- mediate debate, when they did not give me an escort? N. B. — Elmo was out of town with the Glee Club. You didn ' t have to play for them, because the deba ters made enough fuss. But you might have done as you did last year when you played for them and come with the rest of the Annex girls. 259 Taken From the Bulletin Board at Mood Hall A man comes down to his meals on time, But a donkey doesn ' t care. Moral: A waiter with a class at 8:00 o ' clock, Has no time to spare. How do you expect a man to wake When the waiter forgets the bell to shake? So this man is not such a donkey, you see, As a waiter thinks him to be. That is not the waiter ' s job, You sleepy-headed ass; If you can ' t get up at a decent time, You belong to the donkey class. What is the waiter supposed to do? M iss his class an id th en cuss you If he can ' t do his work and meet his class like a man, He had better give his job to somebody that can. January 29, 1914. 2fi0 DER THE LEMON TREE A True Story On the afternoon of a hazy spring Saturday the southbound limited pulled out from the station about ten minutes ' late. Ev- erywhere one could enjoy the spring atmosphere. As the train rushed on the swiftly changing scenes passed by like a great panorama. Even those on the train seem to feel the freedom of the spring. Some were laughing while others were singing some of the latest tunes. Suddenly there came some sharp bumps; some slide from the seats, and others were badly shaken. The car swayed from side to side, and with the heartrending screeching of the emergency brakes on the wheel, came to a very sudden stop. All who could, stuck their heads out of the win- dows to see what was the matter. All they saw was the engineer coming out of the cab and running back to pick up his glasses. 261 Hints to the Wise. M. R. : J. C. McC. is such a good dancer, he is so easy on his feet. ' ' J. G. : Well, he may be easy oil his feel but he certainly is hard on mine. — x — A Soph ' s Knowledge. Prof. Pegues (in English E. Class) : Miss McDonald, how did the pilot on board the Ancient Mar- iner ' s ship know the course of his vessel? Miss McDonald: Oh, Prof. Pe- gues, I don ' t know! — er — they didn ' t have stakes driven up in the ocean, did they? John Spruce, in German: They wandered from heaven through the world into hell er Prof. Eddy: You may stop there. — x — Jew Blair: Madam, car I sell you a vacuum cleaner? Mrs. A. J. Brown: No, Sir, we haven ' t any vacuums to clean in this house. Uncle Billy: You sure can eat a whole lot for such a little fel- low. Jeff: 1 s ' pect 1 aren ' t so little as I looks from the outside. — x — Bang went the rifles at the maneuvers. Oo Oo, screamed Katherine — a nice, decorous, sur- prised little scream. She stepped back into Kenneth ' s surprised arms. Oh, said she, blushing, I was frightened by the rifles. 1 beg your pardon. Not at all, said K. E., Let ' s go over and watch the artillery. A writer says: The brave are always tender. What a bunch of cowards the beeves Mood Hall gets, must be. — x — Is Miss G. in? Maid: No, Prof. J. H. Mc. But I just saw her at the win- dow. Yes, and she saw you, too. — x — Visiting Girl (six-thirty a. m. ): Wake up! What ' s that?

Simons (at breakfast table) : grimly: Pass t he butter! Pink (watching him put a chunk of it in his cup of coffee) : What ' s the idea, Doc? ' Simons: I believe in the strong helping the weak. Two young ladies boarded the train for Austin and it was crowd- ed. They could not get a seat at first and Miss Wooten, to steady her- self, took hold of what she thought was Miss Elrod ' s hand. After some time, she looked and saw that she had hold of a boy ' s hand. Greatly embarrassed she exclaimed, Oh, I ' ve got the wrong hand! Whereupon Chris J., with a smile, stretched out his other hand, saying: Here is the other one, Miss. Turner Van Hoose: I ' se gwine to a surprise party tonight, Mr. Wright. Mr. Wrgiht: What will you take for a present? Turner: Well, we didn ' t cal ' late on taking no present. Yo ' see, we didn ' t want to sprise them too much. — x — Prof. Lehmberg: I can ' t tell whether this book belongs to Miss Hawkins or Clabaugh. Vera (10:35 date night): Well, what did you talk about tonight? Bernice C. : I told him ghost stories but he didn ' t take the hint. Elizabeth: Are you cold? Bernice C. : No, I never get cold, but my hands get awfully cold. x Prof. Tinsley: What is the principal liquid that comes out of a volcano? R. G. R.: Steam. — x — Miss C. (in History B Class in les- son on the war between France and England in India) : Johnnie, what are sepoys? ' Johnnie: The ' sepoys ' were the soldiers who defended the seacoast. 263 Bro. Nelms: Not as a galley slave driven to his bed, but as one who wraps the drapery of his couch about him and lays him down to rest. Burke, with a knowing nod : That ' s Tennyson. — x — Mr. Roach (giving the girls some candy kisses) : Here ' s something you girls like. Aline W. : Oh, yes! I adore them! They are so few and far be- tween at S. U. — x — Mary J. : What does arma virumque cano, ' remind you of? Leola W. : A dark practice room during an Annex Reception. — x — college Favorite college spirit — alcohol (of course for chafing dishes). Dr. Granbery: Summing it all up in present day terms, the Socratic Method was to make the pupil feel like a fool. Ortis H. Ellis: Yes, and this the method employed by teachers to- day.

Senior: No, why? Freshie: It ' s fur to the end. — x — Lost — The points to Dr. Gran- bery ' s jokes. Finder will receive a liberal reward if returned to mem- bers of his Sociology and Economics classes. — x — There was once a college debater, Who was also a deuce of a skater; O Mike, it was great, To see that man skate On top of his steam-radiator. — x — Mary Martha: I have got an idea. Lucy Mae: Well, keep it, you don ' t have them often. 264 Prof. Vaden: Miss Laws, trans- late, Haec in Gallia est importan- ta. ' Miss Laws: Hike to Gaul! It ' s important. Somewhat disconcerted by the in- terruption and with a vision of a head of black hair before her, she replied, No, ma ' am, I don ' t believe so. The Annex line settled down in their seats, awaiting with more or less tittering the arrival of the new preacher. Finally he came. In an especially crowded row, N. T. was creening and twisting behind tall hats. Her neighbor to the left made a heroic attempt to move down and bade her follow. Now, can you see him, asked her kind neighbor? No, I don ' t think he has come yet, was her reply. Rousseau ' s Emile had graced the table for well nigh the alloted time for a library book. With it in mind Mar warned the Freshman Roomy, You had better return this book today, else you will be paying five cents a day for a meal (Emile). In the early part of the year two Alamos got into a wrangle and at last one said to the other: Sir, you are the biggest ass I ever had the misfortune to set my eyes on. Or- der, order, said President Milliken, sternly, You seem to forget that I am in the room. Chris (who had just upset his SO L , generator and spilled H,S0 4 all over his deskmate) : Miss Watson, can this guy go home, his trousers are evaporating. Prof. Pegues: What diplomatic position did Lowell hold abroad? John P. L. : He was professor of Modern Languages at Harvard. The violin lesson was proceeding quite nicely, when Miss Evans sud- denly stopped with this exclama- tion: Janie, is it your bow that needs re-hairing? Ethel (intermission in a dark cor- ner of the balcony) : Stuart, behave yourself — or — anyway, until the music starts. 265 Father: Look here, Harvey, you needn ' t think I am a wet cigar and keep on drawing on me all the time. ' ' — x — It ' s not always a lemon a fellow squeezes the hardest, Gibson, writing up notes after his first day in Lab. : Sulphur and fire, Smoke and odor of ancient eggs (beg pardon). x Women ' s Rights. Will you marry me? said the boy on his knees. Yes, said the girl suffragette, When you get the woman and I have been ordained a minister. x — He: How can you cure absent- mindness? Haw: Send for her. — x — In History C Prof. Moore had just asked Fleming Carter a question. That gentleman replied: Excuse me, Prof. Moore, I was sharpening my pencil. Prof. Moore: Mr. Carter, listen to me with one ear and sharpen your pencil with the other. — x — Class remonstrating with Dr. Seay for assigning a long lesson. Prof. Seay: I never did have a class to fuss because of a short les- son. Miss Tisdale: Did you ever give one such an opportunity? Hallie C. to Mr. McCrary in the library: Will you give me the De- lineator? ' McCrary: Who is the author, please? Prof. Moore: (assigning lesson to History 2 Class) : Take Rhodes Vol. VI, pages 98-1 50. Ibidem 200- 310. Edwin Hardy (later in library hunting up references) to Florence S. : Do you know I ' ve searched this library over for Ibidem ' s book and I can ' t find it. Lyons (Kittie ' s) : Which of the town girls do you consider to be the most attractive? Urban: I think Hodges ' sister is one of the prettiest girls in school. Lyons (the same one) : Hodges hasn ' t a sister in school. Urban: Well, who is that girl he is always with, if she isn ' t his sis- ter? 266 Another selection from the same place: Origin of Language. 1 he origin of language is an insoluble problem. The people used to be- lieve that man was created a talking animal or immediately upon his crea- tion that he was instructed in the rudiments of language by God. An- other belief is that they used the old Hebrew language. Still another be- lief was that a language was started by the people imitating animals as for dogs bow-wow or cow moo. ' But people that have made it a study do not support this idea. B — H — . Tinsley: What is the best theory of the formation of barrier and cir- cular reefs? Ben Leigh: The coral builds up on the crater of extinct earth- quakes. — x — Emma Gillespie (coming into Prof. McGinnis ' 8 o ' clock section of English) : Has Prof. McGinnis come yet. Some one answered: No. Emma: Well I saw him up there on Gillette ' s porch talking to Miss Grace. Dr. Granbery: Miss Adkins, in what are you more interested, man or natural science? Miss Adkins: That all depends on the man. Barnhart (in an Austin cafe, after the waiter has put on all the various dishes for a regular meal) : Lord, I wish that guy would hurry up — I ' ll eat up his samples, if he doesn ' t. Dr. Gray (Bib. Lit. I): Mr. Wil- liams, what was the difference be- tween the major and minor proph- ets? Bob: I hardly think it would be right for me, a senior, to pass judgment on such holy men. — x — Miss Cleaver (after Sunday School picnic) : Vote for Nick ' Carter — you know he ' s always right there. 267 It was at the football game be- tween University of Texas and Se- wanee. Thousands of people were present. The crowd had gone wild over a 40-yard dash made by one of the players. Hupple-Cupple (pulling madly at E — R — s Sleeve) : See that fellow leading the yells over there. He is a K. A. Elizabeth Matchett (after having been discussing what course she should take the third term) said: Nearly everybody here has a course worked out for the whole four years, but I haven ' t even decided on my prelectives. — x — Kotz (standing before mirror and putting an extra amount of powder on her face) : Myra, I don ' t know what I am going to do if those kitch- en boys don ' t quit flirting with me. Dr. Bishop: What is a hexame- ter? Mary Martha: It is a figure of six sides with every side equi-dis- tant from the center. — x — Prof. White (in Math. A Class) : What are superposable triangles? Freshman Carter: Triangles that are supposed before hand, I reckon. During a musical program in Chapel, Geo. E. Dorsey was heard t say: Break, break on thy cold gray stones, O Sea, Oh that I could utter the thoughts that arise in n:e. — x — Found on A College Blackboard. When Johnson was too old to write he did not stay idle for he would sit for hours talking on some learned subject. He did not use words that were beyond his audience. He was one of the best conversationalist of his time. As he said: He loved to cross his legs and have his talk out. Although he was too old to write he never was too old to talk. 268 Southwestern s Star Football Team CENTER — R. F. Young. Biggest all-round man, and a pass- er! RIGHT GUARD R. J. Eddy.

I ' ve taken my fun where I ' ve found it, I ' ve fussed, I ' ve spoofed in my time; I ' ve had my pickin ' o ' college queens, And four of the lot were prime. The first was a cute little Barb The sweetest you ever did see; An ' I took a liking to her — An ' she took a fancy to me. I thought me tcme chap, till a sly Pi Kap Nailed the dear little queen to the cross; Then I said my say, and went my way, But I learned about girls from Floss. The next was a nifty Tri Delt (?) — Yea, one of the aesthetic clan; An ' she looked mighty classy to me, An ' I thought I was the man. In my speech, yea, I stuttered, my little heart fluttered Till the Phi Mu bids were sent out; Then I heaved a sigh, for she went Alpha Delta Pi, But that was part of my training, no doubt. And then I got bugs on a Zeta — One of these long, slender Janes, Who peddled a soft line of spoofin ' , Like one of those never-turn lanes. Oh!! We strolled every night, and I thought me in right, And I builded chateaus in Spain; And I was sore smitten, when she slipped me the mitten, I had builded my castles in vain. I ' ve taken my fun where I ' ve found it, And I ' ve had to pay for my fun; I ' ve been jilted, jolted, and bounced, And, now, by Henry, I ' m done. And the end of it ' s sittin ' and thinkin ' Of the packages handed to me; So be warned by my lot (which I know you will not), And l earn about girls from me.

It is bounded on the North by Granger, on the East by C. M. Bishop, on the South by Cockle Burr, and on the West by the M., K. T. Railroad, and overhead by hot air. It is also afflicted by the I. G. N. Railroad, which is one of the few railroads in the world that protects the lives of its pas- sengers by running slow trains. Still the roadbed is kept in very good condition, and one can leave the depot five minutes before a southbound train and arrive at the Steam Cave in an hour or so without danger of being overtaken by the lightning express. In one place Southwestern University rises to the height of the Girls ' Gymnasium in the Annex. The climate varies from mist to rain and from flood to cold weather. The Main Building sleeps about a mile back from the San Gabriel, and is only awakened at intervals by the loud and pro- longed sighing of Prof. Granbery ' s Education Class, and semi- frequent eruptions from Brother Stuckey exercising his lungs in the auditorium. Georgetown is peopled by people, and by several professors who prey upon them. As soon as a man arrives, he is stripped of his Nationality, and becomes at once a slave of the Athletic Council. When starting for college take along for the Fall and Winter Terms a pair of well-padded trouserseats, one keg of vaseline, and boundless courage. For the Spring Term, a half-crate of mosquito-bar and at least one-half of a swimming suit. 272 An Annex Girl ' s Task She signaled a Prof, and the professor stopped, Class was waiting, hard language he dropped; Each moment she lingered, Prof. ' s mercury rose — She pulled out a chamois and powdered her nose. She fell in the San Gabriel and as she sank They caught her and brought her, all dead to the bank; The first sign of life she deigned to disclose, Was to call for a chamois and powder her nose. In eloquent language I told her the tale Of my love and devotion that never should fail, But just as I asked for a date she arose, And pulled out a chamois to powder her nose. Wherever 1 see her, by night or by day. At Annex, on campus, in the halls, at play, At dinner, or Church, wheresoever she goes. Forever and ever, she powders her nose . — HUP. 273 Art Acknowledgements To our artists for their work in the book we owe our highest appreciation. They have helped us on all occasions, and are due the credit for the aesthetic as well as cartoonist sketches that are present in our book. To Miss Ina Dale Wooten, we offer the highest praise. She has been eager at all times to work, and has never failed us when we were sore pressed. We regret the fact that her class work has suffered through her work, but we honor her for her loyalty thus shown. To Bertram Hedick, we are truly thankful. His work has been highly satisfactory and freely given. To George E.. Darsey, Jr., we wish to express our thanks for the cartoons that he has drawn for us. To Joe Gordon, we are grateful for his cartoons. Some we have been forced to omit, but those we have used, are a valuable asset to the book. To J. Branson Coltrane, we but repeat the praise of the staff of 1913. His work is better than ever. We have been highly pleased with the art work that we have received, and gratefully thank each one who has contributed. 274 In Conclusion EFORE bidding our book a last farewell, we wish to acknowledge the many favors that we have received this year in compiling this book. We have devoted the greater part of our school year to the work on this, the 1914 Sou ' wester. We have been ably assisted all along the way, and we wish to place the credit where it belongs. We are only the agents of the Student Body in our work, and it was with their help that we have been able to complete this work. To all who have contributed to this volume in the way of stories, poems, jokes and art, we are truly grateful. Without these our book would have been a failure. We wish, especially, to thank Mr. Brewer for his part in our success. He generously gave us his office in Mood Hall, when the Faculty had failed to respond to our requests, for such a place. We have had a pleasant and convenient place to work as a result of his offer. Prof. Pegues has helped us in every way possible, and his suggestions have bettered our book. To Garland Barcus we owe credit for his work. Although not a member of the Staff, he has worked faithfully for the last month or two, and the ar- rangement and ideas embodied in the last part of the book are due to him, Uncle Bob ' ' Stone has helped us all the time. He has rushed our work through, and has given us good service throughout the year. The Zeese Engraving Co. we owe the credit for all our engravings. Mr. Thornton, their Manager, has given us courteous and efficient service in all our dealings with him. To Johnston Printing Advertising Co. we owe the credit for the printing of our book. They have given us valuable sugges- tions from time to time, in addition to the actual printing of the book. All our transactions with them have been agreeable, and we wish to thank them for their kind treatment. Finally, to our Advertisers, we owe perhaps the greatest debt of all. Without their aid our book could never have been published. We wish to bespeak for them your patronage whenever possible. THE EDITOR AND MANAGER OF THE 1914 SOU ' WESTER. ,«2 TMC-END.

ASK THE AGENT for any travel information desired (591) The Rexall Drug Store and MEXICO— N at to mention J. W. LONG. MEXICO is a small cactus patch beyond the Rio Grande the strip of trouble that lies between the Pacific Ocean and a flock of American battleships. In the past it has been the home of turmoil and strife. At present it is the vortex of chaos but its future is to be made to order by the U. S. A. When we have taken over this bunch of copper-colored descendants of Cortez we will teach them that baseball is the Na- tional game instead of murder, that the Monroe doctrine is still working overtime, that beans are not food except in Boston, and that the REXALL DRUG STORE is the BEST place in town. You are welcome at all times, day or night, and it is a real pleasure for us to serve you. Our soda fountain man is never satisfied. He lies awake at night studying how to make ' em better. Why not try some of his taste-teasing, palate-tickling, spot-hitting creations that make you wish your neck was as long as a doctrinal sermon? Also don ' t forget our candy man. He is the fellow who married the TEXAS GIRL CHOCOLATES made by Brown Cracker Candy Co. The kind that puts a smile on your girl ' s face a yard long., and is guaranteed to last a week. Remember we are dealers in almost everything including Drugs, Stationery, Col- lege Supplies, Jewelry, Cut Glass, Kodaks and Supplies, Athletic and Sporting Goods — in fact if a drug store keeps it we have it. If we have it a drug store should keep it. The Rexall Drug Store Only the Best 282 t-% ♦ •• « ♦% ♦T «v t •  1 ♦ ♦ V ♦ t A  %J • K J IV11V t f J t ♦ ♦ | Southwestern ' s R. J.
