U. Three years ago again we came, L ' pon thy threshold stood A milestone had been passed, A class ' twould feign would do As Freshmen we were now defunct. what ' s right. But as wise fools, yes — at last. And feign would do thee good. To class we went, from class we came, But these four years being quickly spent, E5ut what more could we do? And having done our best, From sports and scraps we were always By thee upon life ' s road we ' re sent, barred, And by thee may we be blest. For we only had a few. Two years ago we found tradition Lurking in our trail. The college annual must be published, And all excuse would aught avail. We worked and strived with all our might. Our noble little band, And al last awoke in time to find Success so near at hand. Bright College Years, alas they ' re past. As we upon life ' s journey go And we are Seniors now. As Freshmen once again. With deep-concern and much regret. May we do what ' s best and first of all It is ours to make our bow. Quit ourselves like men. But as we through the gate-way For to thee, our dear professors, outward pass, Whom we leave with great regret. May we all so loyal yet few. We owe our hopes, our aims, our all, Stand up and shout with hearts so true, For you ' ve led us step by step. For God, for country and for old S. U. We know not what the future holds Of heartache or of rue, But may the class of 1913, journey on. And find all their dreams come true. 25 Mentor Class tetorp FOUR years ago, we, the class of 1913. entered Susquehanna ' s portals as a band of Freshmen one dozen strong. We, as so many at that time, were rather superstitious when we looked forward to ' 13, that un- lucky number, but four rears of college work has convinced us that the year does not make the man or woman. It is the self through the proper study and work under the guidance of such a worthy and able body of instructors, that Susquehanna affords us. When we entered upon our work here, our only aim and hope was to properly equip ourselves with that knowledge that would enable us to gradu- ate in 1913. And so we started out upon a four years journey under the ban- ner, Scientia est Potentia, and four years of the right kind of training has helped us to translate the inscription on our banner with a fuller and larger meaning to Knowledge is Power. Some of our number have dropped by the wayside — to take up other work, some the teaching profession, and still others different work. But to our num- ber came one from another institution searching for that same knowledge, and he accepted our banner as his standard. And yet another, after teaching for a few years, joined our ranks. To-day we number eight, but though we lack in quantity, yet it is quality we seek for, and we find it in a high proportion in the class of 19 13. But we would not ask for undue praise for we realize that those of you who are soon to follow, and those of you who have instructed us in the class rooms, readily know what standard we have achieved and the world at large --hall soon know whether or not we have properly equipped ourselves for the long journev of life which is now before us. Although so few in numbers, we as a class have never lacked representa- tives in the many and various organizations of our college community. Where duty called we always tried to be found ready to act : to all we tried to lend a helping hand. With this issue of the LANTHORN w e are reminded of the fact that we as a clas must soon part, and although the parting may he filled with sadness when we recount the many happy days of college life, however, let us bear up with the hope that we shall he of usefulness in the world ' s broad field of activ- ity; and let us go forth with a determination to do something that shall bring honor to our college. And would that we each one might see that, although 26 we have been guided these four years by the motto, Knowledge is Power, the time has come when we must give that knowledge opportunity to act before there can be any power manifested. And now as we reflect upon the words of the poet in the following poem entitled. At Graduation, let us go forth ready to stand the test of the world. Out there is the world, and here are you; Above are the skies serene and blue. There ' s never a cloud nor sign of one — There ' s only hope in the rising sun. And your eyes see but the good and the fair In the dreamy — so dreamy — world out there. The call of its voice is sweet and strong; Each bush sends a thrill of hopeful song. The trees are abloom with fragrant flowers There ' s beauty and peace in the summer hours. And the days are forever ripe and rare In the dreamy — so dreamy — world out there. Hut, O, trusting heart, how soon will be — J he change in the morn your eyes will see. The blue of the sky will change to gray, The trees will release their blossoms gay — ■ Your soul will be tried with sorrow and care In the dreamy — so dreamy- — world out there. Then this be your prayer as forth you go; That strength may be yours to meet each foe : That courage may give its hand to thee : That purpose and truth your friends may be : That whatever cross you may have to bear, You may stand the test of the world out there. 27 Senior 0ropl)ecp ON E evening I was sitting ' in my den feeling sad and lonely and wonder- ing what to do. Suddenly a bright idea struck me. I had always been very fond of astronomy and frequently visited the observatory of an old friend. To-night I would go there and beg permission to gaze through the great telescope and perhaps I would discover something new in the vast field of the heavens. 1 was in a mood for adventure and set out at once. The walk proved a long and drearv one. and when I arrived at the observatorv 1 felt both tired and sleepy. I accordingly sat down in a great chair before the telescope and made myself comfortable. Just what happened next I do not know. I remem- ber that I was thinking of my classmates and wondering where we would be ten years hence. 1 must have been sleepy for my mind began to wander ami went back to astronomy. I thought of the planets, eight in number. Then I thought of my class again. Yes, there were eight of us. Once more the planets came uppermost in my mind and 1 determined to have a look at them so I adjusted the telescope and peered through. 1 saw nothing at first save blackness. Then suddenly 1 saw a number of lights and soon great buildings began to appear. What I saw was an immense city. The most prominent thing in this great city seemed to be an enormous church which covered nearly a block. I saw people crowding in at the doors. Then a corner of the roof was lifted so that 1 could see inside. The audience was eagerly awaiting the appearance of the pastor. When the pastor appeared I saw that he was none other than my classmate. K. L. Lubold. 1 was so mys- tified by all this that 1 turned away and when 1 looked hack again there was nothing left save blackness. 1 looked a long time in silence then there appeared a glimmer of light in the distance. An immense desert stretched before me. Then a dense forest strangely resembling an African jungle. Next there appeared a large group of buildings which I discovered to belong to a very prosperous mission. Soon 1 saw a group oi several hundred native Africans seated on the ground. They were being addressed by the head missionary. To my great surprise 1 discoi ered him to be my classmate, J. B. Rupley. The light of the sun upon the deserl sand was so bright that 1 was dazzled and when 1 was able to see again the w in ile scene w as gi  ne. - However, in a moment ' s time another scene appeared before me. It was a magnificent home in a splendid city. Automobile after automobile rolled up in front of the house and deposited its occupants. They hastened into the lighted and decorated house. Within they were received by a charming and beautiful hostess whom I recognized as our little Maria. Beside her stood her husband, a tall, dark-haired man with a frank countenance. I was so overcome at seeing our dear little Maria again that the tears filled my eyes and when I had brushed them away there was nothing to see but darkness. Soon, however, there stretched before me ward after ward of a great hos- pital. Then came the operating room. I soon discovered that a renowned sur- geon was to be there that day to perform several critical operations. When he appeared, to my great surprise, I beheld my classmate. Jake Rayman. The scene faded quickly and I beheld darkness once more. Then the campus of a great girls ' college came into view. The girls, decked in gay costumes, were rapidly assembling from all directions. It was May-day and exercises were to be held on the campus. In the midst of the gay throng stood a tall, imposing woman who seemed to be the center of attrac- tion. It was my dear old classmate, Helen Fisher, now the extremelv popular president of this great girls ' college. There next appeared something very familiar. It was the campus of S. U. All the old buildings were there but there were manv, many others. Evidentlv S. L . had grown to immense proportions. There soon appeared a great pro- cession in caps and gowns and I knew that it must be commencement day. They entered the great hall where the commencement exercises were to be held. The president arose and I recognized in him my classmate, J. B. Kniseley. He in- troduced as the speaker of the occasion a professor from one of the great west- ern universities, who proved to be my classmate. Newton Kerstetter. There appeared vet one more scene. Within a little red school-house sit- uated on a hill. I saw a bunch of boisterous children and seated upon the plat- form was the irate school-marm with an unruly urchin turned over her knee and a paddle raised high in the air. The face of the school-marm bore a strik- ing resemblance to one that I have often seen in the mirror. I had now had a glimpse of my classmates but I longed to see more of them and to talk with them. Suddenly I felt chilly and stirred in my chair. I arose and looked around me. 1 could not realize at first, where I was or what had happened to me. Then I remembered what I had seen and hurriedly went back to the telescope and peered through. But I saw nothing this time but the vast dome of the skies. Whether I had been dozing or not when I saw those ■grange sights I do not know. Hut this I know that although 1 have visited that observatorv again and again I have never seen anything similar to the sights that I saw that night. 29 JUNIOR Clas of iRtneteen-fourteen Colors — Navv Blue and Gray Flower — White Carnation MOTTO Palman qui meruit ferat YELL Genee !

Yes, he ' s there. i storp of t )t illation of JlStneteen-fourteen SINCE our last record of historical events, we in accordance with the ancient custom of our land, have taken a census. This revealed to us that our physical, intellectual and moral standard has attained a higher excellence than any time in our previous history. We have been ably represented on all varsity teams, by stars whose lustre shall grow brighter and brighter as the orb of our college days is traversed. In our inter-class basketball contest, we struggled with indomitable zeal to record the victory which by merit was ours. But, by the intervention of the Fates, the Sophomores threw the winning goal from the centre of the floor in the last minute of play. The score, 1 1-9, signifies a long and memorable battle. Intellectually, we are the lawful and honorable advisors of our lower class- men. Which position as an advisory board we have maintained by distinction in scholarship, merit and well developed moral qualities. Cut alas, our census reveals one lamentable fact. We have lost by emigra- tion, two of the most peaceful, intellectual and honorable chiefs of the nation. They have made their abodes in other college halls, where due honor and re- spect was awaiting them. On the other hand we have been enriched by immi- gration, who, under the tutelage of efficient professors, may attain some de- gree of renown, worthy of record in the annals of our history. This, then is our third year of sojourn amid the maples and pines that raise their stately boughs above S. U. ' s beautiful campus. Fame, already, has carried our past history to the remote corners of the earth. And anon, we hear it said by the lower classmen, Even so did the Nation of Fourteen. We always encouraged migration into our college halls. When on the morning of the new year, there came a peaceful but strange tribe into our community, we greeted them with the worthy salutation : Blessed be ye strangers. One foreboding ere we saw a war cloud arise. The Sophomores, armed with ropes proceeded to shackle this strange people from a strange land. But we, the patriarchs of Fourteen, stepped in and in our usual and persuasive manner said: Let there be peace. And it was so. Yet over and above all these aforesaid achievements, stands a bond of friendship which has drawn us together and which neither old age or distance can sever. United we shall always stand. To-day ' s work is an impetus for the great responsibilities which we shall meet on the morrow, by it we shall be carried into a Utopia more resplendent than poet can dream or painter depict. 33 ALICE M.

Allie Bv-word— Ol mv ! ' As purr in thought as angels are. To know her is to love her. Alice is a wonderful girl in many respects. She has the distinction of cap- turing most of the college prizes, especially the mathematical prize, for she has few ecjuals in this branch. Alice has the ability of working hard and, con- sequently, burns much midnight oil. This ability f hard work has placed her at the head of the class and many others would do well to follow her example. During the past year she has added Campus to her course of study and judg- ing from appearances, evidently lakes a delight in this study. She is an active member of all religious organizations of the college and is exceedingly con- scientious in all her dealings, not even using a horse in German or Latin. Alice has done some teaching, hut feeling the need of higher education, joined us in our Freshman year. Being of an unselfish disposition she has attracted .all 1 - her congenial and unassuming disposition. We wish her much success in lit e ' journey. ' :il FRANK P. BOYER COWAN, PA.

He first came here in the spring of 1906 and has been here at inter- vals for spring and summer terms. We consider ourselves fortunate in having him as a classmate. Pete has a cool and deliberative mind. In clear logic and forceful expression he is scarcely excelled. He is especiallv proficient in history and has a peculiar mania for dates. In psychology he frequently star- tles our unsuspecting professor with high sounding words and learned dis- courses. At present he is very much interested in the Greek language and takes a particular delight in the Socratic method of reasoning. He takes daily trips to the post office and has fits of despondency when his letters are delayed. He is especially attached to his home and frequently takes leave of his studies and visits the old folks (?). Somewhat interested in politics, he has been ap- pointed inspector of weights and measures of Union County. He is preparing himself for teaching, and judging by his past experience, will no doubt have a successful career. We predict for him a peaceful life, that he will be a happy husband, a proud fatlier and a successful teacher. Knowledge is proud that he has learned so much ; Wisdom is humble that he knows no more. 33 D. EDWIN DITZLER HANOVER, PA. Hanover Higli School ; Y. M. C.

Ditz ' ' By-word— By Golly I prefer silent prudence to loquacious folly. Ditz is a rare old bird ; modest, pleasant, congenial. He keeps his hair nicely combed, his clothes brushed, and blackens his own shoes. At just what period of the world ' s history Ditz first saw the shades of night disappear- ing will ever be a mystery to his classmates. Having a crag-like countenance of the Websterian type, most men judge him to be twenty-eight cycles, but the fair sex are inclined to lower this somewhat. Ditz ' s family is a family of preachers and believing in the law of variety, had decided to study law. for which purpose he came to S. U. Finding the law profession over-crowded, he has recently decided to learn the shoe business. Ditz has taken private ora- torical lessons and possesses a voice akin to a steam siren. In class Ik- has mastered the art of bluffing. Greek is his favorite study. He possesses originality and business ability and we expect to bear greal things from him in the commercial world. •M PAUL M. KINPORTS MT. WOLF, PA. York High School ; Susque- hanna Academy ; Y. M.

Skinny By-word — By Gad My zvhole ambition is to make a minister. This attractive, unassuming young man first saw the light of day some two decades ago down near the Mason and Dixon Line. How he drifted in this direction we have never been able to learn. His jolly disposition has won for him many friends. He is especially noted for his leadership in the mid- night concerts and college yells. Skinny has done some warbling in S. U. ' s Glee Club, where his voice is distinctly heard above the rest of the singers. Possessed of beauty. Paul is a great favorite among S. U. ' s Co-eds, but is al- ready concentrated in his affections. He is exceedingly averse to cramming and never lets his studies interfere with his college life. Skinny is a steady patron at the college restaurant ( Pete ' s), where his most delicious diet consists of limburger cheese and vin fiz. Paul expects to be a minister some day and judging by his convincing voice, ought to become adept in this meek and humble profession. We predict great things of him. Absence makes the heart grow fonder; Salunga, fare thee well. 37 LEWIS R. LENHART SOMERFIELD, PA. Susquehanna Academy ; Treas- urer Y. M. C.

Lewy By-word — By Gursh Happy in this, he is not vet so old but that he may learn. Behold the chemist of the class of 19 14. He is associated in our memory with heakers, retorts and all kinds of chemical apparatus. This member of our class is in every way a specialist. Lewy is something of a specialist in love affairs with Virginia girls, and the fair lassies of Seibert Hall. The wide- yawning gap caused by the departure of Ariel. in his Freshman year, is not one that can easily be filled. Yet. through the untiring efforts of Rose t i oc cupy his mind with love-thoughts and to keep his attention centered upon her and not upon the homes of Va., he is making progress in filling up the gap. Lewy is. however, more of a specialist in Tennis and Basketball, being one f those fellows what have to look down so far to see his feet. We predict that in the years to come, we will find him as an Instructor in Chemistry at some well known institution of learning. 1 dare do all that may become a man; Who dares do im ire is nunc.

Dear By-word — I guess Good and handsome enough. If anyone should desire to know the name of a well-built girl strolling about the campus with a dignified air. he would he justified in supposing it to be Julia, who is a typical representative of Southern Aristocracy. In the class room she has not spent her time in vain. She knows some Latin, a little French, and has a smattering of mathematics. She is not without admirers at S. U., Skinny being the leading man at present. Julia is preparing to teach, but does not wish to make it a life profession, for she says, Lady teachers so often become ' old maids, ' and this very idea is repugnant to her desires. In the future we will, no doubt, hear of her taking the stump against equal suffrage for even though she is well versed in politics she thinks that the wom- an ' s place is to feed the brute. But whatever principles she may advocate, may she be successful. In all undertakings we wish her success. But at the minister ' s fireplace we know she ' ll suit best. 39 MARY R.

Marv, commonly called Rosalie, is a Loquacious young maid coming to us from the renowned Centre County, a county not wholly unknown to us. She is especially interested in the folk-lores of our mathematical professor con- cerning her native county. Ruse has a solemn, girlish countenance in which can he found no trace of mischief. She is very original in her thoughts and is not inclined to accept anyone elses views without due deliberation. Since her arrival at S.

Parson Bv-word — Bv Heck But I confess I am fond of girls, I really am. Should time and space permit, dear reader, words would not enable us to picture this as it really is. He has a cracked voice, big feet, and the rest can be seen above; but God hath made him, therefore, let him be. Town parties, taffy pulls, cozy corner chats and any old thing in the social line are his hobbies. In the Fall of his Sophomore year he fell a victim of the love- bug and has not as yet been able to find a cure for that disease. The only cure that his classmates can prescribe is the holy bonds of matrimony. Being somewhat poetically inclined, the class elected him as their poet. Harry has a few faults among which are : sleeping in class, eating voraciously and con- suming too much time in social activities. He is quite original, having a pe- culiar style of combing his luxuriant hair. Harry expects to be a preacher and he is already planning how he can keep a wife and children on $50 a month. Why be came and whither he goeth no man knoweth. 41 BURLEIGH A. PETERS BELLEVILLE, PA. Belleville High School; Presi- dent Junior Class; Pitcher Var- sity Baseball. ' 11.

Pete, Runt, Tow-head By-words — - By George, I guess Blessings mi thee, little man. Dear Reader: Behold the man. At last has he emerged from the frivoli- ties of childhood and is now a man ( 2 1 years). We see here a good open- hearted friend, a great favorite among the girls of Seibert Mall and highly esteemed by all the boys. Pete has an affectionate nature, and like most am- bitious boys, he is not content in loving all Seibert Hall girls equally well, but showers his affections on one while the others stand back in awe. The one great fault the girls find in him is bis love for tobacco, but through Sara ' s gen- tle influence be is, little by little, breaking himself of the awful habit, llis friends also are aiding Sara in her great cause for they know that it would be fortunate for their tobacco bags if he should suddenly stop. Although he comes from the historic Kishacoquillas Valley from whence issueth the re- nowned Belleville Times. he has proven his ability as a slab artist. Pete is well acquainted with the latest popular music, but his favorite song is the Watch on the Rine. Burleigh is anxiously awaiting the time when he will be settled in a neat parsonage with a wife ami a good meerschaum pipe. !_ ' SARA CATHERINE RINE McKEES HALF FALLS, PA. Susquehanna Academy; Vice President Y. W. C. A.; Class Artist; S. U. C. of M.; Girls- Glee Club; Dramatic Club; Clio; Scientific; Teaching? ? ? — ? Wif By-word — Yes Mam Much study is injurious to the flesh. We now view the face of Sara. That we are fortunate in having this sweet- faced maiden in the Class of 19 14. is expressing it mildly. Almost six years ago this modest lassie took up her abode in our midst. Whatever pos- sessed her to leave her home in the sauer-kraut lands of Pennsylvania, where the rippling waters of the Susquehanna flow gently toward the sea, is a mys- tery. However, she is here. Her congenial and sympathetic disposition has been the means of bringing much cheer and inspiration to our despairing spirits. Sara is a profound student ( ? ?), yet she does not believe in oxer- studying, especially is she averse to cramming for exams. She is very gifted in assuming an expression of wisdom when it is time to work a game of bluff on a poor, unsuspecting Prof. Sara has many admirers at S. U., but she prefers Pete to them all. Her highest ambition is to teach the village school at her home where her father is a school director. It is the general opinion of the class that she will marry within four years, since she has alreadv expressed her desire to be closely affiliated with the ministerial profession. As an artist she has won fame and we are fortunate in securing her services in connection with the artistic work of The Lanthorn. Full many a heart has this little lass broken. But never a word of ' Duck ' has she spoken. 43 AMMON W. SMITH ASHLAND, PA. Ashland High School ; Susque- hanna Academy; Y. M. C.

Rough House By-word — Good-night. His fame is great in all the land. This certainly is a wonderful, marvelous, handsome, energetic, prize- fightish and accomplished young man. Dear reader, below that calm, serene countenance and just think of what he might have been. He came to us weighing a hundred pounds and now, by eating, drinking, sleeping and loaf- ing has doubled his avoirdupois. He hails from the anthracite coal regions of Pa. His native home is in Ashland, noted for its saloons, professional baseball players, political crooks, heart smashers, and rough necks. Rough first appeared on our campus in the Fall of 1908, a crude rustic, devoid of any intellectual training, although some of his former traits of coal region tem- perament arc still recognized. Susquehanna has done much to bring this mys- terious character within the pale of civilization. He frequently makes trips to Herndon, where he pays his respects to his forty-second cousin. He is rather oratorically inclined and occasionally startles his neighbors on third door by elaborate discourses on such pel subjects as Woman. Suffrage. Love, Virtue and Morality, lie with Pete are two of the star- on our baseball team. Some day he expects to be a preacher, and longs for the time when he will have three churches, a wife, a buggy, and horse ? ? ? man I am. crossed with adversity. 44 MARY G. STEELE NORTHUMBERLAND, PA.

We have here a little maid who hails from Nory, that thriving railroad centre on the banks of the Susquehanna. As her name indicates, this young maiden is true as ' steel. Mary has a quiet and unassuming disposition which has won for her the love and respect of all those who know her. Though she is not one of the foremost on Cupid ' s list yet her presence is always respected and her judgment, especially in matters of feminine taste, is always considered. Mary has little love for the masculine part of human species, and this attitude toward the male sect makes her incapable of understanding the evolution of love. However, it is hoped ' ere she leaves S. L T . she may be better able to un- derstand this complex problem. Mary expects to study music in New Eng- land after graduation, and her classmates wish her well in her chosen vocation. Sunny and sweet, but not sixteen. May, Mary G. Steele ever be seen. 45 C.

Red, ' ' Sim By-word— Oh ! Schucks Little boys should be seen and not heard. This little piece of humanity came to us in the Fall of 1909, and has not grown one mite since he first landed at S. U. His classmates after much de- liberation, have decided that it is cither his elaborate speaking or his name that stunts his growth ; however, he is older than his height would lead you to think. Though not a star of the first magnitude in the class-room, this little man has shown his real worth when any business transaction is to take place. For real pluck and originality Harden is surely unexcelled. He is well read. having red hair, and frequently draws from his prodigious reading- knowledge when called upon to recite. He makes a specialty of wearing red socks, is a good manipulator of the deck and is always ready to take a band in a rough- house or smoke-out. He has chosen Pharmacy as his future vocation in which his classmates wish him much success. 46 SOPHOMORE Claete of jRtneteen-ftfteen Colors — Blue and White Flower — White Rose MOTTO Abetmi studia in mores YELL Yackerty Yack !

And we still remain on the old school ground, Less in number, but in spirit the same, The best of all classes, we rightly claim. Our record is clear in games and in scraps, For this year the Freshmen got their raps, Down on the banks of old Penn ' s Creek We hammered the Freshies until they were meek. Their colors we took from the roof of the dorm. Right in the midst of the two classes storm, So frightened at this time were the Freshmen so green That all were in places where they couldn ' t be seen. But aside from these frivolities of our college careers, There is work to be accomplished in the four short years. So let us get busy with mind and might And raise high the standard of the Blue and the White. And wh en we have shouldered the burdens of life, May our class stand as one in peace and in strife; When out from this world and into eternity pass, May it be said we ' ve been true to our God to the last. 49 SOPHOMORES SOPHOMORES opl)omcire Class $t0torp THE summer vacation of Xineteen-twelve was spent in various avenues of activity by the different members of the Sophomore class. Some of the boys served in the capacity of clerical men ; some busied themselves in the service of the street-car system; some worked in the woods; and others were employed in different kinds of manufacturing- establishments. While the boys were doing their share of the world ' s work, the girls, in general, were learning home economics by the practical method, and in connection with the same many of them were learning nature ' s lessons. The Sophs then as a whole, shouldered their new burdens and bore them faithfully during the sum- mer vacation. As the opening of the Fall term approached, the Sophs laid down their summer ' s cares to again take up the work of a different character. We had not all returned until the evening of the twenty-second. But, alas, in counting our number again we found there were several missing. After much inquiry we found that some had accepted note-worthy positions and others had cast their lot with other institutions of learning. With these members our thoughts and best wishes linger for their success in attaining their desired goals. As we have lost several members we have also gained two who have shown that they were fully qualified to fall in line with the Sophs and to these we extend a hearty welcome. As the Sophomore class stands with her twenty-one mem- bers she still retains her giant strength. Peace and quietness prevailed during the first few days of the Fall term until the Freshies rose from their slumbers and thought they would break- through the prolonged silence. One day it was whispered to the Sophs that the Freshies were going to paint their numerals that night. We made ready secretly and finding that the Freshies had flown, took up the chase to catch them in their own so-called stratagem. After much perseverance we came up- on the Freshies rather unexpectedly. Their own shadows found them out as they stood in, as they thought, secluded spots. Then we parted our forces in or- der to keep the Freshies from escaping by another wav. Rut the one division bad scarcely left until several robust Freshies jumped out from their nearby hid- ing places and gave a yell for the rest of the Freshmen and we did likewise for our other division. The Freshies being near, came rushing with all speed and soon had our one division out-numbered, but just then our other division ar- rived and the battle raged. Each one strove to overcome his enemy with all the power that lay at his command. The atmosphere was full of dust and 52 clamor until the upper-classmen arrived upon the scene, who after close inspec- tion of the conditions decided it as a draw. The decision being proclaimed the scrap ended. Still we felt confident that we were victorious although being ont-nnmbered. We then challenged the Freshies to a contest on the gridiron to decide the scrap, but the challenge was not accepted. After a hearty hand shake and acts of good fellowship the two classes retired to slumberland for the remaining few hours of early morn. We stopped the painting of the Freshies numerals when only a few had been painted, and those at a great dis- tance from the University, not by our numbers but with our robust physiques. In the early part of the Fall term we met in order to elect officers for the present year and to decide concerning class hats. After the election of officers the class decided that the boys would get appropriate nineteen-fifteen hats, and that the girls could get whatever form of ensign they desired. So at pres- ent the only classes bearing their ensigns are the Freshmen and Sophs. Again the Freshies nut completely satisfied with their previous scrap and feeling confident that they were the more powerful of the two classes, placed their colors on the roof of Seibert Hall with the intention of challenging us to a flag scrap. But the rules of a flag scrap did not provide for a scrap when the flag was placed at such a height. Nevertheless, while the Freshies were sitting in chapel feeling and looking very proud over that great display of valor, a couple of Sophs secretly took down the flag and thus quenched the angry thirst of the Freshies. As the Fall term drew near a close we organized a basketball team, con- sisting of the same material that won the inter-class championship of the Uni- versity last year. From this same team the varsity drew five of its players for this year. In connection with the basketball championship we hold the cham- pionship in tennis. The basketball team as organized this year, without be- ing in old form, defeated the Sunbury Y. M. C. A. and the strong Hollidav - burg teams on their own floors. As we record the history of our class with all its athletic ability and in- tellectual capacity we are still zealous to have our history not only recorded in books, but to have unwritten history remain behind us when we leave these classic walls. So we, the class of nineteen-fifteen. will ever stme to raise our standard nearer and nearer perfection. 53 Cla 0 of I?tneteen-0teteen Colors — Royal Purple and Gold Flower — Brown-eyed Susan MOTTO Perfectio in omnia YELL Sis !

Have we no courage, pluck or grit To make of fear a stranger? We ' ll go to work with might and main To gain an education. And who may tell, what place we ' ll fill, Some day in our great nation For Royal Purple and glorious gold The colors on our banner, We ' ll ever strive to emulate In a deserving manner. Our college life is not all strife With lessons dull and tiring. We have our fun when work is done, And the girls look on admiring. One Monday morn at one o ' clock Those Sophs came tearing in a dock To lick those little Freshies green. It ended just at one-fifteen. Their eyes were blacked Their bones were cracked Their noses looked like apples, And on .Monday morn, they were too Forlorn to hobble into chapel And then such rules, they thought us fools. No nice, bright socks allowed us, And from the college-campus green, They ever tried to crowd us. Sad to relate upon each pate A small blue cap — the rule, sir. But the Freshmen band got the upper-hand. And now who are the fools — sir. Oh me ! ( h my ! We have t sigh. When we behold the vision Of those dejected, wretched Sophs, We now hold in derision. All this is but the froth and bubble Of college life — it is no) trouble. And Soph. and Fresh. are both united. For the honor of Old S. LJ. they ' ve plighted But not the way those Sophs had planned, Some day t ' will seem just like a dream, For we Freshies held the upper hand. When life ' s scenes pass before us. And so we made them eat the dust And classmates of Dear ( )ld l6 As all swell headed Sophomores must. Be like one happy chorus. 58 ifresljman Class J fstorp ON THE eighteenth of September, nineteen hundred twelve, thirty bashful boys and girls clamored admission at the office door of Susquehanna University. One by one we were admitted into the rights and privileges given to a Fresh- man. We were now college students and must act as such. Before very many days all became acquainted. Of course the work at first seemed difficult for each and everyone of us. but before very long we became accustomed to it, and then we all set to work witli a zeal to make the class of nineteen-sixteen the most illustrious class that ever recited in Gustavus Adolphus Hall. At once we organized our class, elected officers and chose our colors, while the Sophs looked bewildered and wondered what first would happen. They soon found out. For on the twenty-second of September, at 1 A. M., our boys outwitted the Sophs and painted our colors. The Sophs came out to view the display after all was finished anil our boys were resting at the bridge. When they came face to face a little battle fol- lowed which the Juniors and Seniors, coming on the scene, settled. The next was to choose our Motto and select pennants which we did with little difficulty and to the satis- faction of all. For awhile all was peace ami quietness. Everyone worked faithfully without pomp or show. But under this lay hidden plans both on the part of Freshmen and Sophs, and on the night of October fourteenth they became known to all. The Sophs, not very well pleased on account of the way they were outwitted by the painting of the colors, drew up rules and posted them that night; but the boys of nineteen-sixteen were not as slow as they looked and after the Sophs had finished their work the Freshmen started out and laid waste their nights work before anyone could read a rule. Even some of the Freshmen did not know what the rules embraced until our President was ordered to call a meeting and read them. For a few days the rules were enforced, until the Fresh- men decided what to do. During this time the Sophs suffered as well as the Freshmen for it happened that some of the rules affected some of the Sophs as much, if not more than the Freshmen. And so it was with joy that they received the news that the Fresh- men refused to abide by most of the rules. Without further contention all was forgotten. The same night that the Sophs posted the rules the Freshmen took advantage of the opportunity and hoisted our flag on Seibert Hall. During Chapel two Sophs cowardly removed our colors and had the misfortune of tramping through the ceiling of third floor. In our class work we have always been diligent, always trying to do our best and never bluffing. Xone of our class have been disgraced by being sent from the class room, although a few times such threats as these have been hurled at us — If you don ' t pay attention, you will leave the room before you are ready or care to go. This fact in itself is one to be proud of, for I am sure not many classes can boast of any better record. Very seldom and from very few have the words, Not prepared. reached any of the Profs, ears. This in brief has been the history for one year of the class of nineteen-sixteen. Our Freshmen days will soon be a thing of the past. Next year you shall hear still more glowing accounts of our illustrious class. Until then, friends, I say farewell. 59 £ ub-5Fresl)man Class Colors — Canary and Brown Flower — White Carnation MOTTO Per Laborem ad Triumphum YELL Bing-teen ! Bang-teen ! Bicka-a-back-a-burteen !

J 61 ' - £ ub-5fresl)man i ropftecp EX i i.SSIVE indulgence in tripe and sauer-kraut had never produced any harmony in my stomach, and when, after a hearty supper of Mich food, I went to bed on the night of Jan. 10, 1923. I laid several hours in agony and sleeplessness. In order to promote sleep I tried an old expedient of revolving in my mind the recollections of past days. It was now nearly ten years since I had come to Chicago and found employment in the slaughter pen of Armour ' s establishment. Since that time I had lived in Packing- ton in the same lodgings which 1 now occupy. Searching beyond my arrival in Chi- cago I found myself back at S. U. Academy in the Sub-Fresh class of 1913. Naturally my next thought was of my classmates. I had heard that several of them had come West and had settled down in or near Chicago, hut seldom getting beyond ilie bounds of Packington. I had seen or heard nothing mor e of them. While pursuing this line of thought I unconsciously drifted into dreamland. Jan. 10th had changed to the morning of July 4th. All business and work was shut down and Packington was deserted. Since the morning was ideal and T had nothing else to do, I determined to spend the day in extended sight-seeing. Proceeding to the heart of the city I began to walk down one of the main thorough- fares. I had not walked far until my gaze was attracted to a very tall, odd looking building which towered above the surrounding structures. As I stood looking at it a huge torpedo shaped body darted forth from an upper story and sped meteor-like east- ward across the sky. A man was standing near me on the curb; so I walked up to him and asked. What building is this? That is the depot of the New York and Chicago Aerial Line. he answered. What was that thing that flew out of its side and what do you mean by the New York and Chicago Aerial Line? asked I. You surely have heard of Dr. Lester Schucker ' s great invention! inquired the fellow. That thing you saw go out of the depot was an aerial car, propelled by a wireless current of electricity, on its way to New York, where it will arrive in two hours. I stood for a moment stu- pilled, then turned unceremoniously and walked excitedly down the street. I came to a theatre, hut before passing on I looked at the billboard and there learned that as a special holiday feature, a violin concert would be rendered by the celebrated Mile. Irene Bauder, just returned from a successful trip abroad. Seats $5 each. Here was another classmate brought forcibly to my notice. Ha! I will come and hear her. thought I. I reached into my pocket to see how much money I had. and found thirty cents. Much disheartened I turned away and went on. As I proceedeil I began to think that thirty cents was not so bad after all; it would buy me a cheap dinner, and a cigar and a little would be left for car-fare. I went into a tobacco shop to buy the cigar. Behind the counter in the shop were seated two men talking earnestly. I could only see the tops of their heads; I noticed that they presented the contrast of black and red. I tell you Bill, said the one with the cinnamon locks, if we want to pay our rent next month we will have to do more business. I bought a cigar and went out, so 1 heard no more. After I was some distance from the store 1 turned and looked at the sign suspended above the door. It read: — ROCKEFELLER STEININGER. CIGARS TOBACCO. By noon I was in the south end of Chicago. I went into a cheap restaurant find ordered my dinner. While waiting for my order I picked up a copy of the Daily News. which was lying on the table. Glancing over the first few pages I saw that the Misses 63 Eva and Phoebe Herman, professors of English and German respectively at Vassar Col- lege, were visiting Mrs. A. B. Goldbags, nee Miss Eleanor Whitmer, at her residence on Lake Shore Drive. In the church directory of the paper I saw the following: ST. JOHN ' S LUTHERAN CHURCH Rev. Wilson N. Worman, Pastor. Regular services Sunday morning and evening. Among the advertisements was this: — THE LEARNEMQUICK ACADEMY FOR BOYS Frank Wentzel, A.B., Principal. It is needless to say what effect these startling discoveries produced upon me. The fates seemed to will that I should on one day find glimpses and traces of all my former classmates. After eating my dinner I went on my way. I came to a place where some men were repaving a street. I passed close by the boss of the men and I thought there was something familiar in his countenance. I asked a workman what the name of his boss was. He replied, Wagner. Surely it must be Lear Wagner. I thought. 1 turned back to speak to him but he had gone, and was not in sight. Another one of them, said I to myself. Now I will surely find some trace of the rest. I was tired from walking and decided to take a ride. The first car that came along was bound for a distant suburb on the south. I got in. willing to go wherever the car might take me. After some time the car came into the open country. I saw on one side vast stretches of well cultivated fields filled with crops and beyond them large barns and cattle pens. Next to me in the car was seated a man whom, by his appearance. I took to be a suburbanite, so, thinking that he might know, I asked him who was the, owner of this desirable possession. Mr. Delroy Cooper, scientific farmer and dairy- man, he replied. One more, thought I. Who next? When the car reached its destination I got out and did not return to the city; but for some unknown reason I went on into the country. 1 had not gone Far when I no- ticed a slim young man ahead of me. He was acting queerly. lie would stoop along the side of the road and appeared to be hunting something, then suddenly be would jump up and run a few yards, then get down and search again When I noticed that he carrieil in his hand a butterfly net. the mystery was all cleared aw iv. Some natural- ist or student of oology, I immediately concluded. While the man was going through these actics, something dropped from his pocket, and 1 quickened my pace t inform him of it. Before I got there, however, he had started in pursuit of a butterfly that looked like a cross between a patchwork quilt and a hellgramite and was soon lost to view. 1 picked up the article he had dropped and found it to be a pocket notebook, on the flyleaf of which was written John E, Mohn, B.S. It was now late in the afternoon and I decided to start back to the city. t that ins!. mrc I saw ahead of me a hie, touring car approaching at full sped. I tried to turn to the side of the road but found thai I could not, 1 seemed to be suddenly paralyzed. The ear was rapidly coming nearer, and I could no) move The shriek of its Claxonel was growing Steadily louder. The perspiration ran down my face, my hair stood on end. Net I could not budge The car was upon inc. its shrieking claxonet almost deaf- ened me. Then it -truck me and 1 awoke to find my head aching from a fall out of bed and the packing house whistle singing in my ears. PREP5 students in 3lcatiemp Dorothy Allison - Irene H.

This promising young lady came to us in the Fall of 191 1 and has tilled our halls with laughter since the first day she ar- rived. Her rosy cheeks, laugh- ing eyes and wavy hair are the envy of the girls and the admira- tion of all the hoys, and especially of our tall young men, as those are the only ones she admires.

EVERY year there are thousands of young men, representing- the fond- est ambitions of thousands of parents and friends, entering our col- leges and universities. They come from numerous types of homes. Some have been so carefully guarded that they are now experiencing for the first time what it means to make a decision on their own initiative. Some have always had about them the most helpful atmosphere and into their sub- consciousness has been implanted a great love for all that is best and a pro- found hatred for all that is low. Others have had quite the opposite home training. They have been forced to battle against the worst influences of the street; thev have overcome evil forces that strangle ambition and though scarred, are determined to be masters. The great rank and file, however, come from the average home. They have been taught morals, have attended Sunday School more or less regularly, have participated in the social practices of their community and have accepted the average morality as their standard. Many of them are members of a church, but the Christian life is to most of them nothing but a set of 1 )o ' s and Dont ' s. These thousands of young men. apparently the very cream of American youth have entered our institutions of higher education supposedly to be molded into more useful citizens and to be sent forth to make a real contri- bution which will cause the world to be better for their having lived. Possibly one of the most difficult, but by far the most important, tasks of the Student Young Men ' s Christian Association is to get students to real- ize that the real MEX have been, and are, those who live not onl) for them- selves but also for their fellow men, and to inculcate into them the desire to be of service to their fellow students, that they will strive to become men. REAL MEN, such as their Father in Heaven expected them to be. We have reason to believe that the Association at S. I . has done much in assisting her young men to get a vision of the opportunities ol service which present themselves from time to time, but we as students of old S. I . and especially as members of the Y. M. C. A. must realize thai there is much work which not only needs but demands our interest. It is no longer a question whether the Association is needed at S. U. The vital question that befronts us is to so work, so direct our energies that the Association accomplishes the task that she is expected to do. Let us not be satisfied with past achievements, but let us get a broader vision of what we could, and ought to io. and then DO it. 92 g. 4p. e. a. OFFICERS President - - - - • J. B.

A. of Susquehanna has during the past year achieved greater things than she was ever able to do heretofore. Not only gain- ing strength by a larg ' e enrollment of members, but in the great interest that is being manifested in the work. We. as members of the Y. W. C. A. realize that nothing can be accom- plished without labor. Although much time is demanded by our studies, we must not neglect the spiritual side of our education, which this organization in its various phases affords. It is true we may think that the time devoted to the work amounts to so little that it is not worth while to spend much time with it. If we but look at the work that the college women have done and are doing to-day we will understand what a great influence for good the Y. W. C. A. is. An important feature of this organization is its Mission Study Class which meets every Sunday afternoon. Here under the leadership of Miss Mae Barry the study of The Decisive Hour of Christian Missions. is pur- sued. Here is given the best possible opportunity for the interchanging of ideas and for mutual help in solving some of the perplexities which constantly confront those laboring in Foreign fields. Let us then not neglect to bring Christ into our every day life and with everlasting zeal strive to live a life of service and be an example to others of true, noble womanhood. 04 g. m. c. a.

In order that our bodies may become servants of the mind and not the mind servants of the body. This club was organized with the aim of giving the students an oppor- tunitv of appearing before the public several times in character work, through- out the school year. Every member has been verv much interested in the work, and we are only sorry we have not had the time to produce more entertainments. The work of the students has met with such success that we have all been very much encouraged and feel that this year has only been the beo-inning of greater things tor dramatic work in the University.

How well they discharge that duty depends upon the preparation, and this is precisely what the Clinoian Literary Society stands for, — the preparation for life ' s work. To speak forcibly and well is one of her aims which is involved in her motto, Mentalis Ordo et Moralis Dignitas. Clio has made much progress during this scholastic year. During the Spring Term of 191 2 all her programs were interesting, instructive and well rendered. The Fall Term was characterized by special programs given by the Ladies, Sophomores and Freshmen. One other program, if we are allowed to call it such, we dare not forget, — The Hallowe ' en Hike. The society each year hikes down the country three miles and enjoys an evening with the pumpkin-buskers and the Onsognificont Bumbles. The Winter Term was a very profitable one to all and great advancement was made along literary lines. In the past year Clio has received quite a few new members and we cer- tainly hope that they may continue to be benefited in the future as they have been in the past. When we become interested in anything we usually derive some benefit. So it is in literary work. As we put forth the effort, some de- velopment must be attained. We would say to new members as well as old ones, that the literary phase of college life dare not be ignored. It is one of the greatest factors in the education of a college student. Therefore, may each and every member of Clio strive still harder to hoist her high standard, higher still, so that her emblematic qualities may shine forth as a bright morning star in whatever positions of life her sons and daughters may be required to fill. And by co-operating with each member we shall construct a plane of perfection such as has never been recorded in the annals of h er history.

Susie Men ER K P-, J o Q in H (« a AS we glance over the progress which our society has made during the past year, we feel that our labors have not been in vain. Though weak- ened in the beginning by the departure of many of our most loyal Philos, yet those who remained, and those who have entered our ranks since. have put their hands to the plow and have endeavored to make a history for Philo of which she need not be ashamed. How well we have succeeded is known to us all. The success of our so- ciety is an excellent indication of the amount of interest taken by her members for her welfare and advancement. Her success has been our success, if we have made much progress along the line of debating, reciting or public speak- ing in general, then Philo has not been losing ground during the past year. And each member who has been earnestly working can truthfully testify that they have been greatly benefited by the experiences received on the rostrum. Let us hold in mind that each passing year is drawing us nearer the time when we must face the stern realities of life. The result of that struggle can have but one of two issues, defeat or victory, and that issue the college stu- dent of to-day is determining in a large measure by his literary work. Ac- cording to his breadth of intellect, according to his strength of character, ac- cording to his love of what is right, good, pure and true will he realize the success at the goal of life ' s stern race. Unity is the kevnote of literary work, we all must contribute some- thing to accomplish the greatest success. We cannot expect to he aroused by the breeze of those brushing past us. It requires the assistance of each one to make the meetings profitable and interesting. Though success has crowned our efforts to a great extent, vet there is much that remains to he done. Because prosperity has been our lot. let us not rest on the oars, but with renewed determination, let us pull for the glit- tering goal that awaits us. and towards which, all. we hope, have set their faces.

K  r7r Prohibition League $rotnbttion JLeague IN the great movement to educate the masses along the line of prohibition, Susquehanna is lending a hand. Our league received a fresh impetus last year by having one of its members, Mr. S. S. Games, who won the local prize, also win the State Inter-Collegiate Contest and represented Pennsyl- vania in the Inter-State Contest. Moreover, Mr. Games was elected presi- dent of the State Association. There was great interest manifested when the Inter-Collegiate Secretary was present and as a result the membership has been nearly doubled. During ' the coming year meetings will be held when the various phases of the liquor problem will be discussed.

Zerfing 109 D Charles Steele defence l all By George E. Usher. Ph.D. URING the past year a new building has appeared upon the campus of Sus- quehanna. It is the Charles Steele Science Hall. and is named in honor of the principal contributor, who is one of Susquehanna ' s most energetic direc- tors and generous benefactors. For a number of years the need of a new Science building with modern equipments became more and more apparent. After the faculty and executive committee gave unan- imous expression to this fact, by declaring that such a building was Susquehanna ' s most urgent need, the matter was taken up by the Board of Directors at their annual meeting held during the commencement of nineteen eleven. At this time the President was au- thorized to solicit subscriptions for such a building, the cost to be twenty thousand dollars. At the next annual meeting of the Board, held in June, nineteen twelve, President Charles T. Aikens presented such an encouraging report that the immediate erection of the building was authorized. John F. Stettler Son, of Middleburg, were the architects and to them was awarded the contract for its erection. Ground was broken with appropriate services during the Summer Term in the month of July. The corner stone was laid with fitting ceremonies on September eleventh. Work was continued with slight interruptions until its completion the following April. It will lie dedicated on June the tenth, nineteen thirteen. It is a building of fine proportions, being eighty-five feet long by forty-eight feet wide. It is built of Watsontown wire-cut brick and Hummelstown brownstone trim- mings. The foundation is of concrete. It is the most beautiful building on our campus having fine architectural lines. Its design and workmanship are a credit to the archi- tect and builder and an honor to Susquehanna. It contains three stories above the basement. The basement has a neat moisture-proof concrete floor throughout and con- tains four large rooms which will be used for Mechanics, Physics, Quantitative Chem- istry and Work-shop. The basement also contains a good sized storage room, a dark room and toilet. On the first floor are located a large lecture room which will seat two hundred stu- dents, and a large chemical laboratory. The latter room contains four double rows of student ' s desks, accommodating fifty-six students at a time. These desks are furnished with a double set of drawers and closets so the room can accommodate one hundred and twelve students in two different sections. A large chemical hood occupies the west wall of this room. This floor also contains an instructor ' s room or office and a storage room. On the second floor are four large rooms beside an instructor ' s room and storage room. The south-east corner room is known as the Biological room and is supplied with tables and cabinets. It also contains a good sized hood. The southwest corner room is known as the Geological room and contains equipment for the teaching of Geol- ogy and Mineralogy. The two rooms on the north side of the building will be used by the professors who have at present the largest college classes, the Professor of Mathe- matics and the Professor of Latin and English. The third floor will be used as a museum. This large room will be furnished with cabinets from time to time as conditions may require. The building is equipped with steam heat, water and electric lights, and will be fur- nished with gas during the summer. It is being equipped with modern apparatus as rapidly as possible. Our students will have larger and better opportunities for the study of the various branches of the Natural Sciences. There is now opportunity for expansion, for the introduction of new courses in the Natural Sciences. A new General Science Course has already been arranged and will be offered at the opening of the next scholastic year. The erection of this much needed and highly appreciated building marks, we believe, the beginning of a Greater Sus- quehanna. Ill si '  . musical ZDxt )tQtX THERE has again been organized at Susquehanna an organization, of which we have greatly felt the need during the past several years, namely an orchestra. It is under the most able direction of Prof. Soule. It has often been said that organizations of this character cannot be very successful the first year, but S. U. ' s orchestra, by hard and faithful practice has acquired that art which many orchestras, who have practiced together for vears. have not acquired — that of a harmonious blending of all the instruments. During the Spring Term this orchestra has proven its ability by render- ing a very entertaining concert. MEMBERS Director Pianist Arthur J.

Such an organization S. U. can well boast of this year —the Glee Club. Susquehanna University Glee Club was organized for the season IQ12- 19 1 3. in the fall with an addition of four men and a piano soloist. The mem- bers of the Club re-elected Prof. A. J. Soule of the Conservatory of Music, as director, We cannot bestow too much praise on Prof. Smile for his patience, work and efforts in behalf of the Club. The great success which the Club has had is largely due to his splendid work. The booking agent and manager, with the aid of students and friends, ar- ranged two delightful tours. From the first trip, which was through the south- ern part of Pennsylvania the Club reported nine successful concerts to their credit. The concerts were given to large and enthusiastic audiences at York, Hanover, Manchester, Dallastown, Lancaster, Wrightsville, Mount Joy Har- risburg and I [ighspire. The second trip, which was held during the Easter vacation was through the central part of Pennsylvania and from this trip the Chil i returned with good reports, having been welcomed l v large audiences and given the highest praise for the concerts. The Glee Club owes much to their accompanists. Prof. Soule as violin soloist, Prof. Otto as piano soloist and Prof. X. X. Keener as reader. They deserve special praise for the excellence of their work. Many times when giving concerts they were encored by the audiences lime after time, showing that their talent and ability was greatly appreciated. During the Spring Term the Club rendered several concerts through the Lykens Valley, Sunbury and Williamsport. PERSONNEL First Tenors Second Tenors Raymond X. Stumpf Paul M. Kinports J.

To make a sound, healthful body and mind as well, is the duty of athletics. Except in rare cases no man has risen to any prominence in life unless he possessed these two qualities. The world does not admire any type of man so much as a strong - , sturdy man who they know has the power and determination about him to carry a project to its utmost. Susquehanna is proud that she has such a great number who are interest- ed in her athletics. Football will again be resumed next fall after an elimination of three years. Although we must begin with a squad of men practically inexperienced. yet, we feel confident of having a winning team. We will have eleven men who will average six feet in height and one hundred and seventy-five pounds in weight. Again we are proud that we can say that we bad a basketball team of no other material than our own. Although we were not so successful this year the prospects for next year ' s team is good as no holes will be made by graduation. Baseball was not very interesting last year, due to the fact that four of our best players of the former year were lost by graduation. Yet the club played well when we consider that a team cannot be developed into a winning team in one season. We, as a student body, sincerely believe that athletics will be given even more attention in the coming year than in the one just past. And may we con- stantly keep in mind that a school is judged largely by her athletics. 123 athletic Board OFFICERS President - - - - Tohn B. Rupley Vice President Secretary Treasurer Harry W.

R., of Selinsgrove Music — America 111 Co €@p TSeloueo O, thou, that trammels ' t up mine heart With the force of a thousand dynes ; Who saileth my hopes skyward with a mean velocity Of three thousand centimetres per second : I love thee. The simple harmonic beat of my heart Increases with a uniform acceleration At thy approach. Thou windest thy arms about me With a centripetal force of S x V. Gravity causeth a body to fall With an acceleration of 9.8 metres per second. And so sink my spirits When thou movest away in a straight line. Thy form hath the curves of a parabola ; Thine eyes shine at the rate of 2 y Watts per second ; Thou canst reduce the weight of my heart From three kilograms to thirty grams Using the C. G. S. system And even though I be buried under a mass Of opposition weighing a hundred kilograms Still I will love three forever, O Phvsics. (1) Said a little boy from Wil To a maiden silly, I ' m like a ship at sea — - Exams are near, And much I fear, Another flunk ' twill be. le (2) Love, murmured she, Ashore I ' ll be— Come, rest, thy journev o ' er. Then darkness fell And all was well — For the ship had hugged the shore. A boy — a match, A strong cigar, A moment of bliss, then gloom. A doctor — a nurse, A coffin — a hearse, A mound and then a tomb. Sue ' s face was happv. Fitz ' s face was stern, Her hand was in his ' n, .And his ' n in her ' n. 145 Mentor iRoast0 RAYMOND — In the class room a bluffer, in the dining room a stuffer.

Easily started on any sub- ject but difficult to stop. Has a strong- affinity for love. (To test her just broach the subject.)

January 31st. the co-eds decided to have a feed, and instead of having it immediately after society, as has been the custom, they came to the conclusion that it would be a good joke on the preceptress to hold it in the conservatory hall after the clock had chimed out the hour of midnight, and so accordingly, all arrangements were made. Each girl was notified to leave her room as quietly as possihle, bringing a candle with her, and slip down the stairs with as lit- tle noise as possihle. The time intervening between the dismissal of the societies and midnight hour was spent in secret consultation and breathless suspense by the girls. Hack one was warn- ing the other not to make any noise, lest their well laid plans he revealed. At exactly one and a half ticks after twelve the girls began to appear in the halls, and fearing lest th ' ey make too much noise and disturb the peaceful slumbers of the preceptress, they stealthily slipped down the stairs one by one, until all had reached the lower hall in safety, ;:s they thought. Fearing that tiny might arouse the suspicions of the male portion of students, they refrained from turning on the electric lights, but lighted their candles instead. The young night prowlers were just getting comfortably situated for a few i fun. when to their utter amazement and alarm the electric lights were suddenly turned on, and on turning around whom should they behold standing in the door, bu1 the pre- ceptress, who demanded in know what wa- going on The girls hastilj explained mat- n i and I ' -tended a cordial invitation I her to remain and partake of the repast, but from all rep ' Tts. she very kindly refused, and left the girls t,, enjoy theinseh The question now is. did someone leave the eat out of the hag. or did Slim and Alice Bastian make too much noise in their descent But nevertheless the joke wa- on the girls, and they have abou com to the conclusion that the preceptress is a little to,, for them, and that she mus( always sleep with one eye ..nil one ear open to all undue sights and ni 154 Crjc JFoolisrj Dictionary A fool must now and then be right — by chance — Cowper.

U., March 20, 1913. DEAR LU: I am a new woman — I need not tell yen that. Years ago when your brother, Roy, would come to play with me. I ' d have him make the mud pies and I ' d lie Mayor of our little city. That was in my babyhood, but I am grateful that my mind was keen enough to see the tilings that were to come to pass. What is man at any rate? Woman is the superior being, so let her rule, say I. Susquehanna, somehow, has grown dear to me — not in a weak sentimental masculine way, of course, but I feel that her future need- minds keen enough to see that if S. U. would win a place in the world she must have ab- solute upheaval, as it were, in her curriculum. The very idea of dear old Prexy being so short sighted as to be giving these fellows a course in Science. Why the idea is pre- posterous. Man in the future will deal with home problems, we will take care of the government. Hurrah, say I! Woman has. in her meekness, submitted to such indigni- ties as the servant girl problem, while her keen mind was going to waste. The future holds a brighter vision. I mean to leave S. U. with a little vow hidden somewhere in this breast of mine. That vow will have its culmination when I, with pomp, will be in- augurated as President of S. U. And then Susquehanna will begin to G-R-O-W. There will be some of the courses in Art I shall allow the boys to take with their Domestic Science. It will serve to make them more satisfied with their sphere. We women used to think our exist ence a bit hum drum without some Art to dab at a bit. But then woman shall shine. There will be no limit to her ambitions. Such engi- neers, scientists and diplomats as we shall have. S. U. of 1913 will look like the Daik Ages in comparison to the wonder-, my mind has gone out to grasp. And through it all, woman will shine like a brilliant star. Some of the boys here at school have been dear enough to realize that the future for us is sure anil I mean to reward them. You know how some men rave over the dis- grace the new woman has been to her sex. as they say. But some of our boys are sensi- ble enough to submit gracefully and I shall not forget ii. There is John Reish; wouldn ' t he be a dear at the head of our Kindergarten, for you see I am determined to teach our boys how to deal with children whom we place in their care and hence 1 shall see to it that we have at least a hundred babies here to use in the training of the men of To-Morrow. Vnd wouldn ' t Danowsky be a superb Modiste. O, I grow wild with enthusiasm as I think of it. Such gowns as he will create and he will be such a dainty sewer. Harry Miller will teach them how to clean and dust— I ' ll put him at the head ..1 it. lie always cleans and dusts so well. Ami there is Kniseley, Funk, Smith, Worman, Stumpf, Ilarman. all of them— I ' ll give them positions of honor You know there are so many interesting things For which the new sphere will require specialists. The need will create ' the man. And 1 shall yet be worth while in the world. Hurrah! Mu-i tro( along and read some Scientific German. s e ei . Madge. P S Can ' l you almost fancj you ' re eating the dainty deserts that Himes will make. M. 158 JFrom 8g)ere Oman ' s Point of $icto DEAR JIM: To-night as I sit here I am thinking of the glory of the Greeks. What wonderful bodies they possessed. We Americans are not as great physically as I should like them. Manhood does not mean what it should. Here in this room at dear old S. U. I view her past and try to push aside the curtain that veils the future. I am in a Dream- er ' s mood to-night and I see visions of Susquehanna ' s glorious future. I mean to be at the head of this dear old school some day. I mean to make it a mighty place. Prince- ton, Harvard and Yale men will come here for post courses. I will not tell you all my plans. I feel somewhat like an inventor — these are chil- dren of my own brain and I guard them with a jealous eye. Nevertheless, I shall tell you a bit of it. I mean to take our boys at the age of seven, watch over them physically, give them the biggest training possible along physical lines. Think of it. Jim! Can you picture the types of American manhood we shall have to offer after this? Each year we shall attempt something bigger until I shall defy any Olympic to compete with us. We shall set a pace well worth imitation. The greatest picture I can think of to-night is Susquehanna ' s Field Day Exhibit. Our men. Jim. our men. Won ' t it be a great Susquehanna we shall see? The women, I quite forgot them for a minute. Well, Jim, we ' ll give them Art and Music and Domestic Science and keep them just sweet women. Your old Pal, ROY. Cbe Pboenit of usquebanna A student said the other day Miss — . how old are you? (Xow I don ' t think ' twas at all polite To ask me that, do you?) At first I was real angry And I said I like your nerve. But again he asked the question So loud that others heard. He knew I was of tender years, And I thought I ' d tell him so; — Why I ' ve seen just twenty summers And as many winters go. He said, well of all the wonders I think that this one is fine, You may have seen twenty summers. But how long have you been blind? 159 GIRLS Kim IMS s o n o SV) £3 ■v— o — ta Co — £3 as H O o H — c — c o u flj fcfl u a; he — cc rt £ V aj ct : o O ni (D +- S3 e «3 ■J ; „ t, Sl, in U Qf-)MPn -l(i pqffiu HK - -ii c G rt j O O. 0) o u fi o 7 ) c O it r- .2 - 5 rt i- C l c Cm — oc be fl ct o o c If, v c ■a be it CJ tft H-] — _o cn f o j- « U tU 4-1 ■ H — — ' rf c ' 5 L.

N m m K W U 101 Clipping jFtom CupiD ' s 9a?ettc anD bulletin Written by his Assistant Editor, Mercury. I suppose everyone has heard of Cupid, the invisible doctor who cures people ' s ills with one tonic called ' Love. ' He has accomplished the most difficult tasks, such as making cranky old maids lovable and old bachelors model husbands. The world owes to him half its happiness and he makes his life business, the changing of hearts. This most renowned heart specialist takes a long trip each year visiting as many cities and towns as possible for the purpose of curing individuals afflicted with iovenitus. ' On his journey, begun in 1913. he was urged to visit a small village called Selinsgrove in which it was said that the people needed his heart prescriptions. On his arrival he found the village was made up mostly of students who attended a college called Susquehanna University. After a single glance at the campus of this institution he knew he had appeared just in time, because almost every girl and boy was stricken with ' campusnitus, ' a disease not serious in itself, but one which might develop dangerously. So Dr. Cupid immediately mixed up bottles and bottles of ' Love ' tonic which he secreted under trees and stones on the campus. He then sent messages by wireless lovegraphy to those needing the medicine and awaited the results. The boys and girls shyly began to search at once, eluding the watchful eyes of the Profs. The medicine was very pleasing to the taste, s,, much s C1 that Stumpf and Kniseley skipped classes in order to look for si, me undiscovered bottle. The medicine took effect quickly and cases developed rapidly, especially those of Katbryn and Stumpf and John and ' Billy. ' The condition of Ruth and Karl became s,, serious that Dr. Cupid was forced to pierce their hearts to make them happy. In a few special cases he diluted the tonic because it was to,, strong for many. Among these were Sara and Julia. Pete and Paul, whom he thought were too young to survive the effects of such a powerful medicine. Dr. Cupid remarked that be had never seen individuals so responsive to his treatment. In a couple of months ' Ted ' and Paul. and Miriam and Ned succumbed. Others followed anil be became so alarmed at the course of events that he decided it would be best for him to leave. Before bis departure a club was organized for the purpose of studying the subject. ' Love, Its Causes : m Effects. ' The motto adopted was, ' If you don ' t try to love, you will never succeed, ' The meetings were held once every two weeks and ' the members were called upon in turn to relate their love experiences and to illustrate lovers ' etiquette. The following are members of the club and you may judge by the number bow pleased Dr. Cupid was with his visit to your school and you may be assured that he will come again in the near future.

Elder Hums 102 SDDe to tlir L.uuborn The sun is setting- in the western skies The tiresome day is drawing to its close, When from my task I raise my book-bleared eyes To S. U. ' s campus, where all its splendor shows. The sombre buildings stand out in sharp relief. As to earth ' s rim the glowing orb draws near. From doubting earth to regions of belief They point the war through each succeeding year. Ah! grim and lonely will those buildings be When once the sun has left our wistful view, But now, that fire-ship as on an azure sea, It ' s kindly rays on all around doth strew. At last Apollo with the earth doth merge. Celestial music strikes our ravished ears. The mighty rays into one flame converge Which leaps high up, dies down, then disappears. The college vear is drawing to its close. With weary sigh we cast our books away. O ' er days gone by our rambling memory goes, We turn our thoughts to gloomy hours and gay. Ah ! grim and lonely would our studies be. If ' twere not for the sun of College Life, The friendships formed to last eternally. The pleasant days with which the years are rife. And now, at last, that sun is setting, too, Its rays divergent, also, now unite.

The spiral lines in the back- ground are appropriate to the feelings of the student when hauled before that august body — he is all in a whirl. He is so small that it requires a magnifying glass to find and get him in focus. Old man wisdom (the owl), seems to take the whole thing as a good joke and while pointing at these learned arbiters is giving us the wink. CLASSES At the top seated before a checkered background i- .Madam Knowledge. The seeker after knowledge has a checkered career to buck against. Arched over the checkered background is the well-worn legend, Knowledge is power. Perched on tile very top is the old owl who by the aid of his tallow candle is closely scrutinizing with faculty-like gaze, the poor Freshie who is getting his first glimpse of the Checkered career. Seated on the right knee of Knowledge is the Prep kid. On either side of the arch are the trees of learning or knowledge. A few steps down is the Sophomore, his dander up, he has given the Freshie the knockout blow. A few more steps and we have come to the don t-care-a-rap Junior who between his cigarettes and soul mate manages to eke out his existence. On the last step we have the dignified Senior- whose smiling countenances show that they are glad to carry their dips. It seems hard for the poor Co- Ed to part from her congenial classmate, but passes it by with a smile. In the background beyond the wall are seen suggestions of legislative halls, churches, public buildings, manufacturing plants, etc.. in which the Senior will find the checkered board and it ' s their move. COLLEGE The central panel contains the tree of knowledge with the S. U. Seal. At the bot- tom is the lamp of knowledge on an open book thus lighting the way for the seeker of knowledge. On the sides are shown two young archers who are aiming at wisdom designated by the owls covering the face of the targets. College a place of learning and SUSQUEHAXXA UNIVERSITY THE COLLEGE that lights the way to learning. CONSERVATORY The Conservator}- drawing shows Pan with his Pipes. JUNIOR i The Junior drawing -hows a jolly bunch of those animals with their dog pranc- ing along on the clouds. And haven ' t come down to earth yet. SENIOR The Senior stands with unfurled Dip on the solid foundation that S. U. has given him and faces the future as the clouds have parted long enough for him to make his selection of various pursuits the world has to offer. ATHLETICS Athletics explains itself. In this you will notice the fair Co-Ed given a chance. MUSICAL ORGANIZATIONS Musical Organizations shows as a central figure a member of the Glee Club. Sur- rounding the picture are various other Musical Organizations. The fir-t i- his Satanic majesty, the cat, then there are crows and birds of the air. In the lower left-hand corner the little elves which sometimes play about on the campus. 1S1 Susquehanna University REV. CHAS. T. AIKENS, D.

A RULE Put this down as a rule , says Dr. Bardeen, that the teacher who rails against Teachers ' Agencies either has been refused admission to membership or has tried to evade the payment of a just debt. During- twenty-seven years of earnest, intelli- gent, aggressive experience with teachers, we wc have found others— the applicants who do not know how to utilize the services i il ail Agency and who resent suggestions. We devote about one-fourth the time and energy of our organization to preparing these applicants and lose annually hundreds of vacan- cies through their persistent inefficiency, our work along this line will be continued ;is hope- fully and as good naturedly as heretofore; for we find that most of our good, strong applicants were at one time inexperienced in securing positions. Every year since 1905 we have been in need of more applicants to till the best positions in nearly every grade of public and private - work. THE TEACHERS ' AGENCY R L.
