' i i I 21 SENIOR FAREWELL FOUR years ago upon thy threshold stood The class of niiieteen-ten. Expectant, eager, for to solve, The mysteries within. The path seemed rugged, long and dreary. The future far away When we should grasp the mystery And give our fancy play. But thru the years of toil and strife. You ' d hear the famous cry. On, Classmates, on. To conquer or to die. The years too quickly all have flown. And seniors now we stand Around the scenes we love so dear, A happy, loyal, band. But at the thot of parting. Within our hearts their dwells A tingling of sadness For we must say farewell. To thee professors kind and true. Our homage now we pay. For clearer light and holier thot Upon our pathway ]50ured. Our hopes, our aims, our all to thee we owe, For patience, kindness, and thy love. We fain would thank you well. But linger longer, we cannot For we must say farewell. Farewell, dear Susquehanna, With thy halls of classic faine Thy broad and rolling campus Shall dear to us remain. The trees, so stately, tall, and fair. The court and diamond too Are places that we love so well, But time has come for us to go i nd we must say farewell. Farewell you old familiar hills. And groves of brightest hues. Your murmuring brooks and babbling rills, Shall turn our thots to you. When out of the far off distance Our thots upon you dwell. Perhaps in joy and sadness We ' ll recall our last farewell. Farewell my dear old classmates, Farewell perhaps for aye Tho in sorrow we are parting. We shall meet another day. When the toils of life are over, And to earth we bid adieu May the Master bid you welcome. Far bovond the starry blue. Till then: farewell, farewell. POET.

The one marked feature of this young man is the wonderful power he has over the Profs, especially his father, whom he has blufl ' ed to a standstill. Bump has become quite a popular little basket ball player, and certainly has made good along this line. If you can ' t tind him in class, you will no doubt find him loitering on the campus smoking his pipe. The class of 191 1 certainly is proud of this little fellow, as he is the Bus. Mgr. of the Journal : we can only say that he deserves the highest praise that can be given him in his faithful work. We here leave him to the care of his parents for a few years }-et, but expect many things of him in the years that are yet to come. ' JJliat the Sam Hill ' s flic matter J. ALBERT BROSIUS, Sunburv.

' ' Mi.en the Class of igrr entered the portals of Susf|uehanna ITniversity it was thought and said that we had representations of nearly every kind of man. We had the freshest freshmen as well as the brightest of the intel- lectual. When this young man was first seen he was viewed as a very bash- ful little boy who had just left home, and in fact no one ever dreamed that before long he would be considered the brightest man around S. U. He has pros)jered in e ery pliase of college life especially campus, girl and dining room. Pie is looked upon with many envious eyes because he is the most po])ular of all among the ladies and is also considered the best singer in school. Pie thought he would like to look upon the Rine and he had the pleasure of doing this for one short week at the end of which he was canned. He has wielded his pen to great advantage, and has therefore played a great part in making The Lanthorn a success. He expects to be a minister and no doubt he vill be a success for he certainly has the art of blufiing and play- ing innocent. Whatever he may turn out to do or be the Class of 191 1 wish him all kinds of success. ' Hey, Priff, gk ' c iiic a chciv ' 1LLIAA[ J. DENTLER Milton, Pa.

He is a great admirer of nature, especi- ally the Snriw . His mind often wanders with his eyes closed in class, which is accounted for because of his intense conception of the Snow. He writes some very beautiful poems but upon close inspection they are like some definitions found in Johnson ' s dictionary. He finds most pleasure in studying -iolin, taking long walks, cutting classes, and reciting History from former knowledge and past e.xperience. What he knows he be!ie ' es is right and thinks e -eryone should think the same and this accounts for his professor-like simplicity.

' Quack Emerson once said, Xatnre is full of freaks . ' e have here a specimen of humanity which is a peculiar cross between a fog-horn and a Grand Opera singer. He stands high in social circles, especially on the Isle of Que and in Sweet Hope. He was intended for a man, but someone made a grand mis- take. He goes to college to make a noise in the halls with study as a pastime. His noisy ability may stand him in good stead sometime, for he expects to be- come an orator of great renown. Although he has many peculiarities, he also has many virtues as bluffing. Prof-pulling and lady-killing. ■■Well ni be darned ' - 31 SAMUEL S. GARNES Fisher -ille, Pa.

' Sam is destined to be a six-footer. He has queered everyone from Fish- erville to Mt. Pocono. Even at colle,a;e he makes the Profs believe he knows it all when some of the Seniors have proven to him that he is a grafter. Sam has not been away from his mother long as can be seen by his daily actions. Pie tries to play foot-ball and for the last four years they have kept him on the line to fill up. Whenever you can ' t find Sam look for him in the gym, for he is usually taking a bath. If you take a good look at him you can imagine he is a grafter for he has a fairly good corporation on him.

He is naturally of a nervous temperament which is no douht due to external forces. He has spent most of his life along the stream known as Penn ' s Creek until he has become a little fishj ' himself. He is very popular in Sunbury society, especially along Front street. We hardly know what to ex- pect of him, but we believe lie will lie eitlier a philosopher or a poet.

We here liave a freakish untamed animal from tJie wilds of Centreville. He is often mistaken fnr a walking barlier-pole, or a patent medicine man. When he is not at Middleburg he is at Northumberland, but occasionally he is at school for several hours at a time. He is Hafer ' s first assistant as third Hoor proctor, and carries out his duties verv faithfully. Miller expected to take a trip west this Spring , but the faculty thought they could not get along without him. This young fellnw is well worth}- the name of man, for he has the personality of a preacher and the mouth of an orator.

He has a wonderful magnetic power over the fair sex, and is continually flirting with some young lady. He would like to be married, but at present the fair ones say he is adapted to the habit of chewing his Pouch mail .

What is life without a girl . This has been Priff ' s motto ever since he liit Susciuehanna. This year he has had abundant success in his enterprises, both wise and otherwise. Priff is hard to start, but when once started he is hard to stop as has been pro ' en l)y his actions. He has won great renown on the diamond and on the gymnasium floor, es])ecia]ly in class games. He is very prominent in social circles and is never al ent from any social gathering unless it is to debate the subject of architecture on the line of porchings. When in trouble go to Prift and he will help vou out, in fact go to him for any- thing except Mail Pouch , which he never has. His main studies are Cliapel, Campus and Girl, exceling in the latter. He is as yet undecided in one point, that is whether t(T mould sermons or to mould iron. Whichever he does the class of iQii wish him aljundant success because the students and facultv of Susquehanna have long been doubtful as to his real worth.

We have drunk pure water from crystal s]irings. 2 ' e have kissed the flower, its beauty kept. We ha e batlied in the dew while nature slept. We ha •e gazed on the bow that spanned the storm. ' e have caught the gray and purple of morn. We have caught the gold and crimson of eve As the king of day was taking his leave We have seen the lightning from angry cloud. We have heard the thunder long and loud. We have caught the beauty and grandeur of night, From star and moon or comet in flight. But there arc some and I now will tell Of other lessons we have learned as well. The lessons of life, those that make us strong And give us great victories oxer wrong. We have learned the lesson that we must climb To the mountain ' s top, or sink in the slime. We nmst run to the very end of the race. Or fall b- ' the wav — he down in disgrace. We must battle till victory brings the crown. If we shall have place, success, renown If we shall have power, fame, and place, We must toil and live for the human race. We must stem the current and breast the tide. Or be wrecked on the rocks where others died. We must stand by the wheel our craft to guide In calm or storm, on the ocean wide. We must be ourselves and do our best. Love God and man, and stand the test. We are gathering pelibles from a narrow beach ; The mighty lies beyond our reach. But o ' er the ocean of life we ' ll glide The masters of wind and wave and tide. We will fathom the deep and bufifet the storm, And in 1912 hail that glorious morn When we shall hold the rudder or grasp the wheel And make the old ship ride with a steady keel O ' er the ocean wifle we shall guide the course, on Till the goal is reached, the race is won.

Bids man his inner self explore, If he would open wisdom ' s door. For deep within the key is found Whereby all knowledge is unbound : y nd he is visest who best knows The narrow heart whence life outflows. First stage whereby the soul ascends. The dawn here idle dreaming ends. To know thyself may cost thee tears. May be the work of ]iatient ) ' ears. But harder lesson yet remains, And wider knowledge for tin- i)ains: Forget thyself, a Voice divine AVhispers within the inner shrine. Forget thyself, if thou wouldst rise From earth, and higher good surprise ; Forget thyself, if thou wouldst love And know the spring of life above. Not what thou art. but what He is In whom thou livest, makes thy bliss; Count self and all its searchings loss Before this wisdom of the Cross. :3 48 SUBFRESHMAN CLASS ORGANIZATION Colors — Yale Blue and Cream Flower — White Carnation MOTTO Non Qnantus seel Oualis YELL Rippa-Zappa !

No one would presume to offer criticism on a work by Shakes- peare before receiving sufficient literary training to distinguish l:)etween a sonnet and one of his remarkaljle tragedies. Quite different is the attitude toward such men as Beethoven, Brahms and Wagner of the musical world when their works are given a hearing. Opinions are handed out freely, based only on the pleasure afforded without any particular mental effort on the part of the hearer. Let us keep in mind that music ?s a language has the right and pi wer to express the entire range of human feelings and when rightly interpreted speaks to you of pain as well as pleasure in no uncertain ton.es. That music should speak to you only of the bright side of life is unfair since you do ncit rec|uire th.e same of literature, sculpture or painting. Inasmuch as music speaks alike to people of all tongues and has been accredited with being the universal language, it has its just claims to uKire serious consideration than being used merely as a means of entertainment. There is in souls a sympathy with sounds, And as the mind is pitched, the ear is pleased With melting airs or martial, brisk or grave. Some chord in unison with what we hear Is touched within us, and the heart replies. — Cozcpcr ' s Task.

As in the case of every other art or science, they are never given to us by nature fully worked out, therefore we must develop them by study and practice. The person who would become a great elocutionist must spend hours and days in careful study of what seems to be most insignificant natural points ; he must also become familiar with all science that pertains in the slightest degree to his work; otherwise he will always be in danger of committing blunders, which will be apparent at once to the trained observer. Elocution is the expression of thought and feeling by means of the voice, gesture, and facial expression. The voice is almost everything in speaking and reading. It is the exquisite instrument which responds to our feelings, and vibrates under the will of the speaker. Surely, bad reading and indifferent speaking ought not to prevail in an era so remarkable for the expansion of intellect, and in a nation who rely more on the art of oratory than any people of modern times. Cultivate your own powers ; gather help from every source within your reach. If you study carefully the great work of expression ; it will become a wonderful source of inspiration to yourself and all your friends ; it will open your mind to the hidden treasures of the human soul ; it will bring you hope and ambition and that satisfaction, which can only come from doing something worth doing, and doing tiiat something well.

The importance of draw- ing in many of the occupations of life is more apparent every day, so that many schools make a certain amount of drawing com- pulsor}-. When drawing is well taught, its educative ' alue is sec- ond only to that of language. Drawing develops the power to see. It makes the difiference between the eyes of the mere human animal, and eyes plus intelligence. I found two cliildren beside the breaking sea. I asked the two to tell me, the things that they could see. ' I see the rainbow shining in every crested swirl, I see the white gulls flashing, bright clouds, and shells of pearl ' . And you? ' T asked the other. She gazed down at the sand, ' There ' s nothing here to look at, but water and some land ' . They stood beside each other, yet they were worlds apart. The one child saw with her eyes, the other with her heart . Drawing also develops the power of expression. President Eliot, of Harvard, once said, 1 have examined all the cotirses offered by the University and find but one (theology) in which the knowledge of drawing would not be of immediate value, and even here I think it might help in some cases. The power to draw is greatly needed in some courses, and is absolutely indispensable in some of them. A large proportion of studies now train the memory, but very few train the eyes to see straight, and the hands to do straight, which is the basis of industrial skill . A carpenter ' s ability to become foreman or contractor, depends on his power to read a working drawing. The advancement of the printer, designer, architect, illustrator, housefurnisher, landscape gardener, dressmaker, fashion designer, dej ends largely on his or her ability to sketch their ideas or repre- sent them with line and color. The tramp is set to work at breaking stone to earn a meal. The carver, works and whistles while breaking stone with mallet plus skill, and gets $io a day for it. Only the owner of a camera can enjoy nature, and truly live the simple life like the one who is able to make pictures, or even slight sketches of their surrounding. That is because the love of self expression is uni ' ersal. Drawing is of such importance in Europe, that those who show marked ability are tramed at government expense, which expense is considered a sav- mg, as the work of the specially talented will enrich the nation. We as a nation are too superficial. We do not do our best work in as many lines as we should. Our best designers in every Art-industrv have come from Euro])ean Art schools. If we are to excel in mechanics and industrial arts and bring the originality and genius of the . merican people to the forefront, draw- ing must be made as universal in the schools as writing. umm?r I SUMMER SCHOOL 1909 Anna Arbogast Catherine Austin J.

But He who has led us so clearly, blessed us so bountifully, and strengthened us so unceasinglv thrrmghout our past, vearns to lead us into still broader fields of service and fruitfulness. It is because of His care for us that we are given faculties to chmb the Mount of Opportunity leading to the Mount of Vision upon whose peak alone we are alile to behold our Mount of Duty to our fellowmen and are endowed with capabilities to lift them to the Moimt of Transformation. It is Emerson who says: If you lift me you must be on higher ground . That each young man may be stirred to the highest degree his nature is capable by his opportunities; that he might be apprehended by his vision; and best prepared to do his best, the ' oung Men ' s Christian Association was organ- ized and has striven for years to realize its name ; namely ; ( i ) To help unite the Christian men of the college. (2) To establish and promulgate the religion of Christ in the lives of college men. ( 3) To equip and send forth men to ex- tend the kingdom of God throughout the earth. With such an end in iew and so much to be accomplished, how necessary it is that we should obtain a higher spiritual position. The true apostles of Christ are those whose manhood is a strong and influential argument with their fellowmen. Let not the cynical oice of the grey wolf of the past mar our future life, but let us stri ' e to live in such relations to God and such genuine sympathy with man that we may be true to all. The poet said ; Thou must be true to thyself. If thou the truth wouldst teach; Thy soul must overflow if thou Another ' s soul wouldst reach; It needs the overflow of hearts To give the lips full speech. Think truly and thy thoughts Shall the world ' s famine feed. Speak truly and each word of thine Shall be a fruitful seed; Give truly and thy life sliall be O great and noble creed. Y. M. C. A.

Sharf Dr. Fisher OUR Y. W. C. A. T has been well said that no education is complete or permanent in -alue that does not bring- the student to a hig-her plane of life, spir- itually as well as mentally. If this be true in general, it is es]ieci- ally true in the case of the young woman student, for upon her relig ' ious life and activity depend largely the religious and moral status of the coming generations. In college life, natural!)-, the major [lart nf the tinie is occupied by study and justh ' so; Init the Y. W. C. A. in its -aried phases affords the young woman an excellent opportunity for that spiritual development, which she would not have, w ere it ni.it for this organizatidu in her school. The weeklv prayer meeting conducted by each in tiu ' n, and the talks prepared and gi ' en by each in turn, are of great x-alue to the girls in general and no less beneficial to the speaker herself, for one never feels quite so deeply the great truths of life as when that one imparts that truth to others. Thus experience is gained that has and will prove of inestimable worth when the cnllege girl is called upon to perform life ' s duties as a teacher, pliv- sician or as the mistress of one of our American homes. It is then that she will realize what this training within the walls of her Alma Mater has nieant to her. Another important feature of the organization is the Bijjle Study class which meets every Sunday evening. Here the Bible is studied prayerfully: here is given the best possible op]5ortunity for the interchanging of ideas and for mutual health in solving some of the perplexities which constantly confront oiu young- women. Idiis is the one time when each may enjoy heart to heart talks of helpfuhiess and feel that in seeking spiritual comforts they are brought closer together and into a better untlerstanding of each other than at any other time. In this way strength is given that the aim of the Y. W . C. A. may be more completelv realized, because those not already Christians feel the great need of Christ in their lives and are led to Ije His followers. Thus these and those who are professed Christians as well, are helped to live lives of greater useful- ness and service having inculcated in their lives these principles which result in purer, higher, and nobler womanhood.

Snow- Blanche Jarrett Lylyan Chesnutt Ruth Sigler Mary IMcLaughlin Tracie Brungart Carrie Frazee S4 THE CLIONIAN LITERARY SOCIETY [N the early days of our institution there was l)ut one Literary society which, bore the name .Atlilonon. During the Spring Term of 1859 Ijecause of the indilTerence of its members and in order to create the spirit of emulation, a new society was organized in the Gaugler School of Selinsgrove, known as The Sophronikopean Literary Society of Missionary Institute , but after a few sessions under the guidance of Mr. George W. Marsh, the first president, in the old school building, the society had its headquarters in Selinsgrove Hall on the College Campus, where it continued to hold its meetings with the same object in view as found in the Preamble of the Constitution, The preparation of its members for the active duties of life . And had for its mo tto the congruous and laconic Excelsior , which was appropriately used for the first time before the public in a massive parade going to the first entertainment given by the students in the college church. For several years the Sophronikopeans were the leaders, but in 1864 the number began to decrease until in 1865 there were but four in her ranks. Her library was neglected and her few volumes were but little inducement for new students to join, but the following years conditions were different. New mem- bers were enrolled ; new books were added to the number of old ones in a new bookcase and in a short time 360 volumes catalogued. In the year 1866, Captain Harpster who spent most of his life as a missionary earnestly laboring in the blaster ' s cause was the president. In this year the name was changed to Clionian Literary Society and the motto, Men- tali Ordo et Moralis D .ignitas succeeded the former motto. Another consti- tution and set of by-laws were formed. The neglected library previous to this time was much better ecjuipped, ■ which caused a great sacrifice for each member to do this. In March, 1866, according to an inter-society agreement, our society occupied the chapel one session, the other the next, and so on alternately. Still later through tire effort of Dr. Born each society was provided with a Hall on the third floor of the Selinsgrove Hall. In 1893, after having waited in vain for the long promised new building which was to offer us a new society home, a determination was made to beau- tify the old hall. Consequently the interior hall was remodeled entirely, new curtains, carpets, and opera chairs, a heater was also purchased for $12.25, and other improvements added, altogether entailing considerable expense. Some time in October, 1894, the society moved to its present quarters on the third floor, west wing of Gustavus Adolphus Hall, which was selected by lot and Clio was given first choice. Although the old hall was neatly fitted its furniture was not sufficient nor suitable for the new apartments. New carpet and seats were purciiased and 85 tlie Hall seems to have been used first for a reception, (a reunion as it was called), during- the commencement of 1895. Regular sessions were held in the fall of the same year and new improvements were added from time to time as the society could afford them. Tapestry curtains were soon purchased for the hall and later in January, 1897, a platform was put in for a rostrum. In 1 901 the walls of the room were calcimined. which greatly added to its ap- pearance. A new Chickering Grand piano was purchased sometime in 1904. Three years later when electricity came within our reach we jjut aside the old oil lamps and equipped ourselves with beautiful chandeliers for electric lights. New pictures were placed upon our walls from time to time, until at present we have the following: Benjamin Kurtz, Prof. Born, David A. Day, Prof. Jacob Yutzy. Dr. J. R. Dimm. Prof. T. C. Houtz and Rev. Fassold. Along with regular programmes rendered by the society each week she took advantage of many other occasions to show her life and activity. After the reception, mentioned before, in 1895 the society held an annual bancjuet at the Keystone liotel. This custom was held to for the three consecutive years. Here, as the historian tells us, loyal Clios and fair ladies gathered around the table ladened with the fat of the cnuntry. For the next four years this banquet was held in the hall where a literarv i rogramme was rendered and refreshments served. After the completion of Seibert Hall we gathered there for the 1903 commencement. Philo having the alternate choice of Seibert Hall in 1904 we celebrated in our own hall again and the next year in Seibert Hall. The gymnasium n(nv became a desirable place for these receptions, so in 1906 we decorated the gym and held our festi ities there. In 1907 we again gathered in Seibert Hall and at the commencement of 1908 owing to the large number of alumni present and on account of the limited room in Seibert Hall we took the seats out of the chapel and decorated it to suit the occasion. In 1909 we again returned to Seibert Hall. Clio always took advantage of occasions to have sjjccial programmes on days of historical importance, Hallowe ' en usually exciting the most interest. For several years carnivals were held in the hall, but in 1907 the society desired to have an old time country liike, so we made arrangements at the farm of Mr. Fisher about two miles below Selinsgrove, and the society and their friends walked there for their evening ' s entertainment. For 38 years the society only admitted to its membershi]) men. The ques- tion of admitting ladies was frequently discussed, but voted down. However, the ladies became more attractive until it reached its climax on Sept. 14, 1896, when they were admitted subject to same conditions and entitled to the same privileges as men . 1909 being the fiftieth anniversar} of Clio a special anniversary session was held which was of great interest. Many of the old members were present and took part in the programme. Among those present was the first president, G. W. Marsh. A committee was later appointed to write a history of the societ} ' . This is not 3 ' et completed at the date of this writing, bnt will soon be finished and filed on the Clio record. The following is the Clio poem written by one of her loyal members. Rev. H. C. Michael: We are gathered here tonight, with emotions of delight In honor of those Clios good and true, Men whom we delight to know, who just fifty years ago Raised the standard of the Olden Gold and Blue. , nd their wisdom still appears, tho ' a half a hundred years Have elapsed since their achievement came to pass. When upon the ensign here, were inscribed the letters clear, The words Mentalis Ordo et Moralis Dignitas. Here tonight we seize the chance for a retrospective glance . ' Mong the course that marks her progress every year. How each one his part has taken and has still remained unshaken In the name and faith we ever shall hold dear. Hundreds did participate in speech, essay and debate. Making noble honest efforts to surpass. When we view what this did for us one and all will join the chorus Of our Mentalis Ordo ct Moralis Dignitas. Half a century has gone since that most auspicious dawn When the Muse of History took her rightful place. In the long and lingering train many treasured scenes remain That a hundred years of time could not erase. Here were happiest events, here were cheerful incidents That put esprit de corps into the mass; But the strongest tic to bind was the motto we ' d in mind The words Mentalis Ordo et Moralis Dignitas. In ever} ' valley, hill and plain, from the beaten shores of Maine, From beyond the distant banks of the Ohio, Whatever land may be your choice, there you ' ll hear some well trained voice That some have heard within the walls of Clio. Men of dignity and worth in all corners of the earth Compeers and fellow toilers they outclass, ] Ien who out in life ' s great school know the value of this rule Our loved Mentalis Ordo et Moralis Dignitas. With a brilliance seldom flashing with a boldness seldom dashing But with firm and steady tread she marks her course, Here and there we ' ve heaped upon her fame, prosperity, and honor Till we ' ve reached the present summit of our force. May her fame be yet increased by this intellectual feast. May we echo Clio ' s praises to the mass. From the hill top and the grotto, may we hail the honored motto, Our loved jMentalis Ordo et Moralis Dignitas. In the realm of coming ages in the kingdom of the sages That truth shall wave triumphant in the sky. In the dim and distant mazes we shall ever sing her praises Till our banner and our watchword wave on high. And at last in life ' s December as we look upon each member And happily salute them as we pass May we then in fervent manner shout the motto of our banner, The words Mentalis Ordo et Moralis Dignitas.

It was for such ends as these that Philo was organized in 1858; it is for such ends as these that she exists toda}-. The degree of success that has attended her efforts along these lines during the fifty-two years of her history can be measured only by the successes that have come to those of her number who ha -e gone out in the world, and there made their mark. The ex-Philos haye, however, made a record that stands for itself, a record that tells more forcefully than tongue or pen can tell, in what measure Philo has accomplished her ends in the years past. During this year the work of Philo has in m;niv respects been far from perfect, but, on the whole, interest has run high, and high interest cannot but mean success. Some, of course, have shirked duty, but tlie loss has fallen upon themselves, and the benefits have come to those who have taken their places. The regular Friday evening meetings have been carried on with Philo ' s char- acteristic vigor ; they have been well attended, the programs have been well filled, anil the literary ciuality of the work has been high. Features of the year ' s work ha e been the Ladies ' Program, the Alumni Session, the Recep- tion to new students, and the Hallowe ' en banquet at Middleburg. Fellow-Philos, a continuous and successful past of fifty-two years is look- ing down upon us, and is demanding that we at least maintain for Philo that high position which she has held all these years; Susquehanna is looking to us, for the achievements of any of her constituent parts are but her own achievements ; our own interests are demanding of us that we embrace the opportunities afforded us b}- our literary society. Let us then be up and doing. For ourselves and for Philo: Still achieving, still pursuing Till from old S. U. we go. And then may we, — as have others — Win success and honor later And reflect back all the glory To Philo and Alma Mater. PHILO ORGANIZATION A. C. Harris - - President F. S.

There is no excuse for hmi and less for the men who hold their citizenship in Heaven and vote like the devil with the saloonkeeper on earth. The Prohibition League cannot hit the rum-seller with a brick because such men, who call themselves good citizens, stand in the way. He may be a bad man, and he is ; but the man behind the bar is no worse than the man in front, and the man in front and behind are no worse than the better men who vote for the bar. The man at the bottom is the man with the ballot, and he is responsible for all the evils above iiim for which that ballot stands. That man who is down can be lifted up only as the men who now consider themselves above him, get out of the dirt beneath him. There is much to be accomplished before we are able to be of the most direct benefit to the man who is under the paws of the lion, the rum traffic — this beast may not use his claws on your personally, fellow-student, but he has shown vou his teeth time after time — vou are in danger. Your home and its inmates may be the next in his pathway — how will you stay the attack? Your neighbor is now being devoured, his sons are being led away and his daugh- ters are being dragged, in his clutches every day, over the precipices to hope- less ruin. What are you doing to help him and his family? re you help- less? No! You have the power if not the patriotism, above the average American citizen would you but do one of one degree of your duty. JOIN our Prohibition League that you may be better fitted with better weapons to attack the beast from all sides at once. 92 PROHIBITION LEAGUE OFFICERS G. B. Manhart --------- President Wm. J.

It is not the purpose of one who knows so little of this well-meaning organization to paint on the college-campus landscape the achievement of its past nor to blow the heav} ' smoke of the college steam plant in the face of its future. It is not because these one-time students, who were successful managers, captains, editors, debaters, skips, coxwains, strokemen and the like, under Suscjuehanna colors, are no longer interested that this society has not accomplished more tangible results but because some have become shirk- ers while others carry a three-horse load. To the latter Victor Hugo says : Press on! a better fate awaits thee! Remember your aim not yet ten years old: To promote the best interests of the University: ( i) By fos- tering a lo •e for the Alma Mater: (2) By co-operating with all the existing organizations; (3) By stimulating true college spirit and by animating her sons to more zeal in all her varied branches of activity. Why should such an organization be allowed to perish ? Why dare a society with such high ideals and strong men with still higher ideals among her members, be allowed to deteriorate ? Ve college students -ant your en- couragement and believe you will want some of us in later years. In years passed you aided in the arrangement of intercollegiate debates, awarded prizes and have stood by us in many wa}-s, but now is the time we really need your assistance. We need a ne ' dormitorv for college men, we need a Science Hall, we need an Administration Building, we need a new Music Hall, wc need more Faculty Chairs endowed, we ought to have many- more students, but above all we must have more money. Can you not come to our rescue and help us? You can if vou will. Remember voiu ' motto, and don ' t foro-et that the interests of the school are vours. PHILOMATRIANS OFFICERS I. X.

AA ' alter ATHLETICS AT SUSQUEHANNA ' T is truly said that athletics finds in the cnlleo-e arenas of the CDim- try Its real home. These athletes comprise the whole student hody at large. All the games are played by only legitimate, amateur players and athletes. The Athletics at Susquehanna in length of time, is but as a season, in achievement, as great as the noble river from which it takes its name. For i8 years foot-liall has been one of the athletic sports at Suscjuehanna. She has waged contests ever since with other colleg ' es, but now she has ceased to be an inter-collegiate foot-ball college. It is the intention to replace foot-ball with something more useful and not so detrimental to the health of the bo}s. Although foot-ball has l.)een abolished, it has not dampened the spirit of basket-ball and base-ball in the least degree. In fact the spirit seems to have been strengthened which fact should be greatly appreciated. Susquehanna has manv reasons to lie proud of the work done l)v her various teams on the field, diamond and floor. The members of the teams have all brought many honors home to their ,Vlma JMater as well as to the indi ' .iduals themseh ' es. These teams deser -e much praise from the student body aufl all connected with the L ' ni ersity. Susquehanna under the con- ditions had a fairly good base-ball team last Spring, winning six out of ten games played. Our foot-ball team deserves much credit for their work done on the field, thev certainly ha e lieen men, men who stand for honesty and uprightness. Again our basket-ball team has been lirought against one of the hardest schedules ever arranged for a Susc|uehanna team. The team played in hard luck in the fore pait of the season, Init in the latter they ha e won -ictories not to be ashamed of. Considering all this it has been a ery successful season. 98 i.

A. has held at Northfield, Mass., at the close of the college year a conference for college and prepara- tory men. From very small beginnings this conference has grown to be the largest annual convention for college men. Other such conferences have been organized under the same auspices, in other sections of our country, so today most all of the student world of the United States and Canada have similar opportunities to discuss the religious problems of college life. From 700 to 1,000 delegates meet annually at this conference. Various religious problems as well as social functions are entertained. The mornings and evenings are devoted to platform meetings and sectional conferences on religious work. The afternoon is free and the facilities for sport and inter- collegiate competition are well utilized. No finer recruiting ground for active and able workers in social fields can be found than this at Northfield. The recent and growing tendency mani- fested in all the religious field towards utilizing religious inspiration for the solving of our social problems is increasngly marked at Northfield. lOU SHAKESPEARE CLUB OFFICERS Geo.

CHAS. W. HEISLER, D.D. former president of Susquehanna University In Memory of DEWITT BODINE a member of the board of nirectors of Susquehanna University SENIOR HISTORY OR the fourth and last time, it becomes tlie dutv of the historian to present a brief history of the Class of iqio. It is with mingled feelings of pleasure and regret that we perform the duty encumbent upon us. It is a pleasure, because in retracing the step? which our dear old class has trax-ersed, and recounting the honors antl deeds of merit with which its history abounds will always gi -e us imtold joy and pleasure. But. ' .m the other hand, it is with sadness and regret that we realize that the history of the Class of 19 lo is completed and that the day comes on apace, when we must turn our backs upon the old school around which so many fond an l lasting memories cling, bid farewell to the friends and associates made there, and take our first step into the great arena of the world. So fast, indeed. ha e the }-ears passed by that it really seems but yesterday when we first took our stand as a band of Freshmen, and chose as our motto, Ant ■ ' incere. Aut ] ii ri, — - To Conquer or To Die. As we stood in Fresh- man year, how long and difficult the way appeared, as we gazed far ofif into the distance to the time when, with diploma in hand, we coidd leave the reci- tation hall ruid start out eagerly to secure the prize Dame Fortune had in store. But now as we take our last backward glance upon that formative period, before joining the ranks of the Alumni, all the varied scenes of pleas- ures, disappointments, mistakes, and ' ictories as well, crowd themselves in rapid succession upon our minds. The knotty problems of Trig , the crooked translations of the classics, the sumptuous feasts, the class scraps, the athletic contests, the moon-liglit strolls, all are brought vi idly before us and we can- not help saying in a tone of sadness and regret, They are gone forever, only their memorv remains . As a spoke in the great wheel of college life, we ha -e striven to fulfill our part. As a class, we have always had an influence, sometimes perverse, more often, we hope, good, on those with whom we came in contact. The different members of the class have always shone with remarkable splendor in the dif- ferent fields of college activity. The high intellectual standard maintained throughout these years has always been the pride of the class. To the literary societies we have given faithful and zealous workers; in the religious organi- zations and publishing association we have always been well represented ; on the various athletic teams our men have shone with the best, bringing much credit and hnnor to their Alma jNIater as well as tn themselves; in tact there is no branch of college activity in which we ha -e not been found taking; ' an active and ettecti e part. Among the indi idual members of the class, harmnnv rnul cimgenialitv have always reigned supreme. Discord is an unknown word in the historv of the Class of 19 lo. and as we take this retrospectix ' e iew, we cannot help but feel proud of the fact that we ha e always moved along, as if of one mind, in perfect accord and harmony. The personnel of the class has n t remained the same throughout these years as it was when first we entered the halls whence we soon must part. Already in Sophomore } ' ear we dropped several bv the wayside to pursue their studies elsewhere.

SIowl} ' , but with the greatest certainty the year of 19 10 has at last ar- rived, an l with this edition of The Lanthorn ' , we will be ushered out from the scenes which have known us so long, and into the dark and uncertain future, there to fight Life ' s battle alone. We must at last face the fact that, as classmates, we must )5art. The goal for wliich we have been working is secured: the end toward which we ha ' e bent all our energies is at last reached: but, classmates, this is not the end of our labors : it is rather but the begin- ning. The race wdiich we have run is but the preparation for the greater race on which we are now entering. That each may run and win is the earnest wish of the historian. Dear Alma Mater, Fare-well. Classmates, we, too, must part. The history which we have been forming during the past four years is completed. We have reached the parting of the ways on the road which we have tra -eled side bv side. Some will go one way, others another: but in whate ' er field of life you find yourselves, may unbotmded success attend your efforts, and may the historv which each is now beginning, be even brighter than that just closed.

For this we give them credit.

As yet we have not decided whether it will be for the best interests to have a bancjuet (ir not, but due consideration will be given the matter. Since our banquet of last year held at The Milton Hotel, Milton, Pa., was such a grand success, we will no doubt hold one again this year and with a class roll of twelve, should have a glorious experience. 1912 has officers she can be proud of; and our class business and duties are carried on in such a well ordered and casv manner as to prove the asser- tion, Great Minds Move in the Same Channel . Such brilliant success having thus far attended our pleasant pathway, we are constrained to expect, yes, even predict, greater results for the com- ing year. Historian, ' 12. T FRESHMAN HISTORY HE portals of Susquehanna University being flung open wide to the incoming students, there entered within its classic walls twelve lads and lassies in order to fit and prepare themselves for greater usefulness in the wonderful struggle of life. They lost no time in organizing themselves as a class of nineteen thirteen, and chose for their l:)anner the motto, Scientia est Po- tentia . which they are striving to carry out to the very letter. Out of this numher fi e entered directlv from the Academv, the rest having joined our noble band from other educational institutions, yet all bent upon pursuing a college course with the greatest diligence. The class regrets o f hax ' ing lost two of its members, in the ])ersonages of our genial Sara and mirthful Christy . The darts of Dan Cupid proved to be fatal in the case of Sara ; and the class wishes her a happy voyage across life ' s matrimonial seas. The smiling face and boisterous laugh of Christy are greatly missed by his classmates. In the time that he was with us he proved himself worthy of the name Dutch , and was an old veteran of the foot-ball team. The Sophs ha e given us no tutorial lessons ; neither have they made known their wishes. Moreover believing that we are living in a civilized age, we have used no means whatever to bring on an attack from their bar- barous tribe. On the 19th of February we met the Sophs on the gym floor in a basket- ball contest. With o])en mouths and glaring eyes they made an appearance as if they were going to wipe us off the floor. However, after the clouds of a fiercely contested battle had cleared away, thev were utterlv surprised that the weaklings had rolled up ten points, and that they themselves had only to boast of fi e more. The atove is but a part of our history. It is not only the physical con- test that requires strength and courage. There are other battles to be fought. There are tasks to be done that require long hours of toil ; and as we ap- proach the end of our first collegiate year, we believe the majority of the class can look without regret upon the year ' s vork, and can look forward for still better things in the years yet before us.

SENIOR PROPHECY T was a beautiful moonlight evening, and I, as was my custom, was taking an after-supper constitutional. On this particular e -ening I had strolled in the direction of a woods along a hill- side only a few miles distant from my home, ith little thought of what I was doing, 1 entered the woods. My thoughts went back to my college days, and I unconsciously penetrated far into the interior of the forest. Hearing a peal of thunder, and feeling a chilling breeze, I was awakened to the world ; and I heard the howling of the winds : I saw the swaying and heard the creaking of the trees : looking above me I saw an angry sky, and I soon felt hea ' y raindrops beating upon me. I ran this way and that, almost frantically, but I could see nothing but trees, trees, trees. Finally I perceived a small cave-like opening upon the side of the hill, and, thinking that this would at least afford shelter until the worst of the storm had passed, I entered. Tiie frequent flashes of lightning afforded me oppor- tunities to see the nature of my hiding-place, and one of them showed me a narrow aperture seeming to lead into another chamber of the cave. The storm had so terrified me that I little cared what should become of me, and so I entered. I was groping my way alxiut this interior chamber of the cave, when, of a sudden, light came to me, and I saw that I was in a typical cave. But I had seen this just a moment when the view began to change, the walls of a cave became the walls of a church, stalactites and stalagmites be- came people, and I found myself sitting in the last pew of a great church, well filled with people. I knew neither time nor place, but a newspaper in the overcoat pocket of a man sitting beside me gave me a clew, for it was The Philadelphia Record for Wednesday, June 4, 1930. In a few mo- ments a minister arose and called to order the Convention of the General Synod. He had preached more than half of his elocjuent sermon before I recognized him. The deep bass voice had sounded familiar to me, but the long black beard and mustache had so changed his appearance that 1 had not recognized Chippie. To verify my conclusion, I found a program lying on the floor, which called for a sermon by the retiring president. Rev. Wal- ter H. Traub, D.D. Looking further down the program, I saw that there was to be an address by the fraternal delegate from the M. E. church, the Ixev. A. C. Shue. D.D., LL.D., who was pastor of the largest Methodist church in Philadelphia. Still further down upon the program there was an address by the president of the Woman ' s Heme and Foreign Missionary 123 Society, Mrs. Margaret Yeager. After the conclusion of the ser -ices, I met these tliree speakers, first Margaret, wlio told me that she was the wife of a famous preacher ( whose name I do not recall, though I think it began with an S), then Chippie and Shue. Vhile I was talking to them, I was approached by the Rev. A. C. Harris, D.D., wlio told me that he was pastor of a large church in Pittsburg, and who was soliciting my support in his campaign for the Presidency of the General Synod. Artie had no sooner left me than Billie Shaeffer came rushing to me. He was also a Rev. and a D. D., and was preaching in the wild and woolly west . I found that he, like Harris, was soliciting votes for the election to be held the next day, and that these two brethren were the leading candidates for this honor. It was while I was talking to Schaeffer that the scene began to change again, and I soon found myself alone in the cave. I was sitting in this cave, almost dumfounded, when I felt an icy touch upon my face, and seemed to hear a strange voice say Move on . Seeing an opening upon the opposite side of the cave, I crawled through it, hoping that it would lead to other wonderful sights. I found that it led into another chamber of the cave, ' erv similar to the one in which I had been. Soon the scene began to change, just as it had done before, and I found myself in the new Court House at Washington, witnessing the conclusion of a trial before the Supreme Court. The government was the Prosecutor, and Geo. A. Reitz was the Defendant. Paul H. Hartman was the attorney for the defense, and he was making his final appeal. I found out that Cupid had just completed his contract for re-lighting and heating by electricity all the great government buildings at Washington. Reitz had underbid the gang contractors, and the corrupt politicians were endeavoring to get re- venge by accusing the engineer of faulty work. The case was decided, how- ever, in favor of the defense; Reitz ' s reputation as an electrician and Hart- man ' s as a lawyer, had not onl} been saved, l:)ut had been greatly increased. As I was pressing forward to congratulate Cup and Paul, the scene l egan to change back to the cave. This time I did not wait at all, but hurried through the opening that ap- peared on the side of this chamber into another chamber of the cave. In the same way a change was brought aliout by ' hich I found myself in a Q great Assembly Room at Bryn Mawr College. Everyone seemed to be in tears, and I soon discovered the occasion for it, for their popular president, Miss Mary A. Phillips, Ph.D., was making lier farewell address, for she was soon to be married to the new Go -ernor of Pennsvh ' ania, a voung, hon- est anil clean statesman. As soon as the scene changed back to the cave, I hurried through the opening that aj peared there. This next chamber was transformed in the usual manner, this time into a fine mansion. It was the home of one of our famous American million- aires, and in the drawing room, dressed in the height of style, was his wife, nee Libbv Taylor. With her was her old school friend, Kit Potter. I dis- covered that Kit ' s husband was at that time attending to legal business in Washington, and she was visiting Libby. This scene seemed to hurry away more rapidly than the others had done, and I hiu ' ried on to the next chamlier of the cave. It retained its natural cave-like appearance for quite a time, and I was beginning to fear lest my visions were over, and I were lost somewhere near the center of the earth. Thinking over the strange sights that had appeared, it occurred to me that I had seen most of the members of the Class of 1910, in fact, all but two, Betzy Smyser and Rube Manhart. Finally the transfor- mation began, and I founil myself ori a strange street and among strange peojile. I was quite mystified until I saw Betz approaching, and she told me that she was here in the Philippines with hubby , who was in charge of the United States forces on these islands. I perceived that the scene was beginning to change back to the cave, and fearing that this would be the last of these scenes, I asked Betz if she could tell me anything about the whereabouts of her cousin Rulje. Oh , said she, he is still a cranky old bachelor, teaching in a country school at — and at this point I found myself in the cave again. The moonlight seemed to be shining through the open- ing from this chamber, and, climbing through the narrow passage, I found myself at just the place where I had entered the woods. There were no signs of the storm, the grass in the fields through which I hastened in my homeward way was wet only with the dew. Arriving at home, I quickly wrote down all my experiences. Many are the hours that I have since spent in the woods, hunting for this cave, but as yet I have been unable to see any indication of it. Whether there be any prophetic value or not in these mystical adven- tures, I cannot say : I would have preferred to keep their record hidden for many years, and then to compare it with actual history. But I showed it to several of my friends, and they liave persuaded me to allow it to be pub- lished. Let all take it as it is intended — not as an unfailing prophecy of future events — but as a true record of my experiences on that remarkable niglit. Prophet, ' 10.

A HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSITY Addi ' ess delivered on Founder ' s Day, 1908. By M. L. WAGENSELLER. ANY years l efiire the founding and location of Missionary Insti- tute, it was in tlie mind and heart of Dr. Benjamin Kurtz to found an institution, where consecrated men with fair educa- tion, without reference to age or domestic ties, who felt that they would like to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ, could be educated in theology. Such an institution was his great desire. He had frequently in the Lutheran Observer, of which he was then the editor, ad- • xated such an institution. For a long time his words were not heeded, but finally he brought the matter before the Maryland Svnod. At the meet- ing held in 1856, a repi rt was read by Dr. Kiu ' tz on the su!)ject of estab- lishing a Missionary Institute, such as we have described. The report was adopted and the following committee appointed t carry out the provisions of the resolution: Dr. Kurtz, Revs. J. McCron, Geo. Diehl, F. R. Anspach, J. G. Butler, Dr. Kemp, and Messrs. Bridges. Humerichouse, Ream and Wisong, all members of the ? Iaryland Synod. The first meeting of the committee was held in Baltimore Dec. 15, 1856, when after consideration of the subject it was decided to locate the institution in Baltimore County, Md. At the second meeting of the toard. which was held Jan. 5, 1857, the resolution to locate in Baltimore County was rescinded. After this meeting an announcement was made in the Observer, asking for a location. The following ■ places were announced as candidates for its location : Newport. New Bloomfield. Loysville. and .Selinsgrove. Our fathers became busy and cir- culated subscription lists in town and among the surrounding farmers, with the result that in less than one week $22,500 had been subscribed. So anxious were our citizens for a school. When the bids vere received by the Committee or Board, they started out on a tour of various towns ending the tour at this place. A committee of citizens met the board and stated what they would do, urging beside, the magnificence of location. The Board were favorably impressed with both the subscriptions and the location. They felt willing to locate here. After some discussion of the matter it was discov- ered that the provisions were purely for a Theological Institution. Our fathers said that unless a classical or collegiate department could be added to it, they were not in the market for it, for they wanted a classical department where their sons and dau.ghters could be educated without going from home to get it. This phase of the subject had not been thought of. Without doing anything the Board returned to their homes, with the assurance of our citizens, that if such a department could be added, they would be a candidate for the Institution. In tlie course of ;i few weeks a meeting was again called for this place, when the Board agreed to meet the request of the citizens of Sclinsgrove and to locate Missionarj ' Institute here. This being consummated, the follow ing Board was elected: Rev. B. Kurtz. D.D.; Revs. Geo. Diehl, F. R. Anspach, J. G. Butler, Dr. Wm. Kemp, Mr. Wm. Bridges, Mr. Ream, Col. A. C. Simpson, Mr. John App, Mr. Geo. Uj Schnure, Revs. H. Ziegler, S. Domer. P. Born, C. C. Culler, C. G. Erlenmyer, J. G. Anspach, D. H. Focht, Col. W. F. Wagenseller, Messrs. C. A. Moyer, Leonard App, H. Ritter, Benj. Schoch, and L. R. Huinmel. After some consideration it was decided to open a female college. Therefore the $22,500 was divided; something over $15,000 or two-thirds of the amount for Missionary Institute and the remaining one-third for the Female College. As there were no buildings for the school, the classical depart- ment occupied the Sunday School Room of Trinity Lutheran Church w-hich was offered by its council unanimously. Both sexes were instructed here during the first year. The school opening June 14th, 1858. The Theological Department opened October ' ■, of the same year. I That department occupied what is now the sexton ' s home in the rear of the church. During this 3-ear the buildings which were to be used for the several schools vi ere being pushed forward so that they might be ready for occupancy until the open- ing term, of 1859. During the scholastic year of 1858 the departments were presided over by Dr. B. Kurtz, Supt., and Rev. Prof. H. Ziegler, Assistant. The classical de- partment was directed by Prof. Theopholis Weaver, Principal, and Prof. Wm. Noet- ling. Assistant, who had charge of the Jilathematics. Some time during the first part of the school year Prof. Weaver suggested to the school to organize a Literary Society, which was done after several meetings. The speaker thinks that this occurred some time in .August, 1858, thus showing that in the early days of the institution Literary exercises were held. This society met weekly, rendering programs consisting nf essays, declamations, orations and debates. The name of this society was The Athlonon Literary Society, of which the speaker was a member. When the school assembled in 1859, it was to occupy the several buildings. Missionary Institute, now Selinsgrove Hall and the Female College. The basement and first floor on the northern end of Selinsgrove Hall was used by Prof. P. Born and family. The basement contained a kitchen and a dining room for the family and the students who boarded there. On the first floor were the living rooms of the family. The lower or southern end of the second floor was the chapel until there was more demand for dormitories, when it was cut into two rooms for that purpose, and the width of two rooms and the hall were made into a chapel on the first floor, with two rooms on each side of the hall for recitation rooms. The chapel on the first floor was not nearly as large as the one on the second, owing to the need for class rooms. The theological room was on the second floor on the east side of the building. Susquehanna Female College occu- pied the building now owned by Prof. William Noetling. The smaller building was put up by Father Leonard App as a residence for himself and family. This property with the ground on which it stands was purchased by our citizens: and the three-story building was put up for school purposes alone. The smaller building was for the use of the principal ' s family and for culinary purposes. After a number of years this property was lost to the Board and the Church by reason of ' I debts which had accrued because of the want of proper support by the church. It ' ' I passed out of the hands of the Board and became private property. Rev. S. Domer, I ' j D.D., being the owner, but after some years he sold it to Prof, illiam Noetling, !j who for a number of j ears conducted it as a Normal School, but he having been H elected a Professor in Bloomsburg State Normal School, this Institution ceased to exist. The following was the faculty of Missionary Institute: Theological Depart- ment Supt., Rev. B. Kurtz, D.D.; Rev. Prof. Henry Ziegler, Classical Department, 129 Prill., Rev. Prof. P. Born, Prof. Theopholis Weaver as assistant, Prof. William Noet- ling, Mathematics. Of the Female College. Rev. Prof. C. C. Baughman. assisted by Misses Rundell, Catlin and Burnett, the latter being the music teacher. A peculiar feature about this institution was that at the first commencement two young ladies were graduated. They were Miss Carrie Kurtz, daughter of Dr. Kurtz, and Miss Linda Wirt, of Millersbvi ' rg. sister of the late Dr. J. A. Wert. They, however, had been students of Prof. Baughman at a college he presided over in Maryland. T think it was Lutherville. They simply continued their course here and were graduated. I was at the corner-stone laying Sept. 1st. 1858. the dedication of the building Nov. 9, 18S9, and the inauguration of the Theological Professors Kurtz and Ziegler. At all those exercises we had as speakers some of the brightest minds in the Lutheran Church, and the brainiest laymen in the State of Pennsylvania. Such ministers as Dr. R. Weiser, Dr. E. W. Hutter, Dr. Samuel Sprecher, and laymen such as Judges Alexander Jordan, Joseph Casey, etc. All these exercises were enjoyed by our citi- zens, who realized that they had done a good work for future generations. Some time during the first of the session of 18S9 the students petitioned the faculty to give us a several days holiday. It was not that we were already tired of study, but in order that we might have a Ijetter walk from town to the school. The holidays were for the purpose of putting down a plank walk along the upper side of the street, and to plant trees along that walk. The street had been recently opened, there was not a house upon it except the two on the corner of High street, now occupied by Mr. Bosum and Mr. Samuel Spahr. The citizens had previously delivered on the ground railroad ties and plank. Some of the students began making the walk while others went to the country and across the river digging out trees and bringing them to the street where they were planted by other students. The trees were all donated liy the parties from whom they were secured. My recollection is that all the trees but two or three grew and gave shade to all that passed back and forth all these years. Li the course of three days the work was completed and we returned to study. I would here remark that for the want of room in Selinsgrove Hall many of the students were compelled to room and board in town, either in clubs or in private families. During the winter when the snows were deep the students having constructed a snow plow, pulled it into the town, thus cleaning the walk and per- mitting the rest to go in and out with ease. When Dr. Kurtz died, Dec. 19, 1865, Rev. H. Ziegler. D.D.. was elected Superintendent, continued until 1881, when he resigned and Rev. P. Born. D.D., was called to fill his place, and Rev. J. B. Focht was installed as Principal of the Classical Department. Dr. Focht resigned in 1883. when our venerable brother, J. R. Dimm, was called to fill the place as Principal, which he did with credit to himself and to the Institution, (and I was one who helped elect him). During his term of service the Institution grew and grew until it widened out to what is now Susquehanna University, which is largely due to his energetic admini- stration. The class of which I was a member, was as follows: Lloyd T. Rohrbach, of Sunbury; Henry G. Deitrich, J. Keemer Davis, Amantes M. Eby and myself, all of Selinsgrove. A. M. Eby and myself are the only ones of the class who are living. Here I leave the reminiscent work to better hands than my own, hoping and wishing that our beloved Institution may grow in usefulness as she grows older. I will only add that my father ' s and my own official connection with Missionary Institute and Susquehanna University covered a period of 49 years, his from its foundation until his death in 1876, a period of 18 years, my own from 1877 continuously until last June, a period of 31 years. 16 years of that time as Secretary of the Board.

As an answer to the captain ' s call for all material to return for training one week before college opened, about five or six men of the ' 08 team returned, the remainder of the team con- sisting of new men, some of whom were practically new in the game. Although the team was light and inexperienced the fellows went into the game to win. The first game of the season was played at Lewisburg with one of S. U. ' s greatest rivals, Bucknell. The Orange and Maroon ' s training showed great superiority over her opponents, but weight told the tale. Notwithstanding the fact that S. U. was outweighed by 25 pounds to the man she held them to a score of 14-6. More might be said of the team ' s excellent work such as the Muhlenburg and the Gettysburg game, but this is a sufficiently con ■incing example of her ability.

The season of ' lo was a very successful one. The team made a noble record, which was largely due to the excellent practice it had with the reserve team. The class games this season were very interesting, and were verv hotlv contested. Taking all in all ; the basket-ball season of ' lo is one of which S. l . can justly feel proud.

TRAUB DICK -------- Coach Kauffman Little did one dream a few years ago upon seeing a long, lean, and lank young man entering this school for the first time, with some little record as an athlete, that he should ever become the Coach of this University, but it is with pleasure and boastful words thai our students tell of the giant poplar as coach respected and admired by all. lie has pro ■en himself a true rounded athlete and not only is he able to play himself, but he has that manner oi ap- proach as a coach that is sure to win the confidence and respect of his men. Athletics as they have been carried on this year are due to his efforts as a coach, and under the blighting conditions with which he had to deal, the teams which he turned out are above the average. ' •CHIPPY ------- w. H. Traub, Mgr. The 1910 basket-ljall schedule is the best we ha ' e had for a number of years. This is undoubtedly due to the ability of the Manager. The boys like Chippy on the trips, but the old plea TOO TIGHT . He was sometimes confused as to the direction the train went and was always afraid of making too much noise. Aside from this he was a fair Manager. 6u All P S l N DA Y b ft CiCe TT AIKEXS SUXDAV DAGGETT R. KAUFFMAX BUMP ----- Claude G. Aikens, Selinsgrove, Pa. Right Forward. Height, 5-10. V ' eight, 140 llis. He plaved a good game e ery time, full of energ - and spirit, one of the crack goal-shooters; a little rough in floor work, hut what of it. He is always careful of his language when on the floor. ' ' BILL ----- V. E. SuND.w, Penna. Furnace, Pa. Left Forward. Height, 5-8. Weight, 155 lbs.

' DICK Risiit !iuard. H. R. K.WFFM.AN, Milton, Pa. Height, 6-1. Weight 186 lbs. The strong team work of the Orange and Maroon is due to the work of Captain Kauffman.

Opp 14 19 53 1 1 145 J J H Id THE baseball team of last year was not up to tlie standard of Sus- quehanna, but managed to win six of the ten games played. In the start the team was handicapped by having tlie use of only one pitcher, which was undoubtedly a drawback to the team, as we JfciSyn could not expect one man to pitch all the games and be successful. There was not the interest shown last year as in previous years, whicli to a large extent accounts for the slump of the team during the latter part of the season. W ' e do not mean U infer that it was the fault of the students, that the team was not wliat it should ha e been, but we do belie -e that a great part of it was due to the negligence of the Athletic Board. The outlook for this season is very favoraijle, as we have the greater part of our former players, also men coming in who ha e the abilit}- to make the Susquehanna team tlie best in the history of the institution. The manager has arranged one of the best schedules that has ever been ]M-esented to the students and the faculty of S. U. This schedule alone should be enough to stir those who have any athletic ability in them at all. to come out for the team. Do not stay in because you cannot make the Varsity, but come out with the Scrubs and develop into a Varsity man. e look forward to one of the most successful seasons we ha -e e er had, with the material at hand, and what is to come, we cannot be excelle l bv anv of the smaller colleges.

The caressing- waters lapped the san.d. That shone iri the moon ' s soft light. The night-bird ' s cooing, softly heard, Lent music to the night. We slowh- turned to lea e the liank. Warned by the sinking moon. Reluctantly we homeward strolled — The parting came ta soon. As we lingered on the door step. We heard from out the gloam : Kitty, just come into the house, And young man. vou go home . SCENES BRIGHT SAYINGS BY TRAUB Where ignorance is bliss, ' Tis folly to be wise; And the mouth ' s the place to kiss, And not between the eyes. The man that has not learned. That mouths are sweet to kiss. Surely for love has never yearned ; Thus ignorance is bliss. I learned it long since, never fear, For kissing ever was a pleasure. But oft Tve searched from ear to ear To find a place my lips could measure. J i J HER PERFUMES W hite rose, tiie perfume tiiat she loves the best, M senses find where ' er she has gone : The fragrance of a summer clings upon her breast, And yet that sweet smell leaA-es me all forlorn, -And when I think of her I find no rest. Her own sweet self is bud of a white rose ; For she is fair, and innocent, and true. And what she is to me, that no one knows, Nor ever will ; but if she only knew. She ' d find that in my heart her rose now grows. But dearer to her still is the perfume of crushed hearts. Of which she has broken many a score; And Cupid, little rogue, has pierced them with liis darts; Then what to her is one heart less or more, Unless to me. in fair exchange, she her own imparts. 161 THE SONG OF WORK VER a book, second-hand and worn, ' ith eyelids lieavy and red, A student sat with a weary air Grinding; — his hand on his head. Grind — grind — grind , Slowly repeated the spirits who smirk, And thus sadly impair the whole mind . So ran the old Song of Work. Grind — grind — grind, While the night is speeding away. And grind — grind — grind, Till the dawn just shows its first ray ' Tis this to be a slave To the faculty ' s call and beck. We dare not waver, we dare not crave Some mind it must surely reck. Vork — work — work. Till the brain begins to swim, ork — work — work, Till the eyelids are heavy and dim, From all the mathematics, — - From Calculus down to Trig., The formulae swiftly gather In forms both gloomy and big. Oh heartless oppressors of men! Oh faculties far and wide ! It is not the standard that you raise When you crush all sense of pride. Study — study — study, Till the mind is weary with toil. And the wheels buzz around in your head. And you wish you were under the soil. THE SONG OF WORK -Continued But wily do I speak of death ? When Commencement is so near, Then all my woes will vanish, — Still those hundred hours, I fear, A hundred hours of toil, A hundred hours of work. Of forging and chipping and filing Till the hours begin to lurk. Pound — pound — pound. Till you almost fall in a faint, Biff— biff— biff. You could not be called a saint For blank — blank — blank. And a lilue cloud hovers near. As yiHi help your neighbors cuss. Then stand with an awful leer. Work — work — work. From weary chime to chime, W ork — work — work. As prisoners work for a crime. Sometimes we despair and would fain flunk out, As in vain each seeks some rest to find. Till the heart is sick and the brain benumbed, — Ah! such is the life of a grind.
