WE BEG TO PRESENT HERE THE CUSTOMARY EXCUSE FOR LIVING. •i,jSiia -„ preface. ■ HE supreme moment for which we have lived and longed, the moment which should grant us the opportunity to redress wrongs and punish oppression, to retaliate against and explain all things in our own Halcyon, has at last presented itself, but with it, alas ! comes a modification of our wicked intentions. We find ourselves forgiving slander- ous epitaphs of former days, and endeavoring strenuously to avoid unpleasantries in the future. A spirit of peace and good-fellowship seems to o ' erspread us as we suppliantly lay our little volume at your feet to be trodden on or admired. We beseech you to receive it graciously, and if our jokes — or call them what you will — are too copious for your compre- hension, or if they are too juvenile to court your mirth, lay it aside gently, and regret the mistake made by our beloved class in its selection of editors. If you are unable to interpret allusions to yourself as friendly and respectful suggestions, we have failed in our attempt at clearness, for nothing has been further from our intentions than to insult or wound you. Checked as we have been by the general financial depression of the country, in our desire to decorate our book with the picturesque views of the college buildings and grounds, we have thrown all the energies of our spare moments into collecting from the many pleasing incidents of college life little odds and ends. These will, we hope, be to you, dear classmates, 6 most happy reminiscences in years to come, when we shall have no longer the guardian care of our Alnui Mater and the loving watchfulness of our instructors to shield us from the stern discipline of the heartless world, and safely guide our careless steps in the noble struggle for existence. As we complete our pleasant task of publication, we realize that one more of the duties of our class is done, and that we are one step nearer the end of college days. But although Commencement will sever some of the happiest associations of our life, we are impatient for our battle with the world, impatient to rise into prominence and to reflect the credit due to our Alma Mater. But if we fail we must regretfully acknowledge that we have wasted the most valuable opportunities which life affords. For the sake of ourselves and our college may we not fail.

' Rah, ' rah ' rah! Swarthmore ! The Recreations of German and American Students. By Charles De Garmo. HE problem of the manual laborer is how to make his recreations Lr cultivate his mind ; that of the student, how to make them develop his body. The best type of modern manhood is not trained muscle with untrained brain, or cultured mind with feeble physique, but the sound mind in the sound body. Students of different nations use various means of combining their amusements and their physical training. The English, as we know, are perhaps as fond of out-door athletic games as were the ancient Greeks, but German students have scarcely any con- ception of such sports. They have all had rigorous gymnastic drill from childhood, but how to play they do not know. The one substitute that the German student has for all that we include under the term athletics is the Me isur, a form of the duel. It is intended to be, not fatal to life, but full of excitement, and stimulative of mental and physical fortitude. The Mensur is looked upon as an amusement, if not to the participants, at least to the observers. The dueling days recur once or twice each week during most of the year, there being usually, at each meeting, a number of couples to try their skill. The actual contest is preceded by several weeks ' training with the Schliiger, a long, straight sword, sharpened on both edges for some twenty inches from the end. Thrusting or striking are not allowed, but the whole play of the sword is produced by a wrist movement, and is confined to the region of the opponent ' s head. Sword-arm and breast are padded, large iron goggles protect the eyes, and the ears are tied down, while a silk scarf wound about the neck protects the jugular vein. The head and face are with these exceptions left exposed. The contest must last for iifteen minutes, exclusive of stops to repair damages. It is difficult to compare justly the merits or demerits of amusements in countries so different in traditions and social conditions as are Germany and the United States. Perhaps the chief reason for German toleration of 9 the Afensi r is a social one. In that land the sons of men in the lower walks of life meet in the university the representatives of a numerous petty nobility, and the duel has been an important means of establishing and maintaining social equality between the two classes. The son of the baron must respect his fellow-student or fight. In America no need of this kind is felt, since each man stands for just what his character warrants. Looking at the tendencies and influences of the two systems it would appear that the custom of American students is superior in every respect. It may safely be affirmed that no Swarthmore student has ever been taught to drink or gamble by the college athletics; not one has been permanently injured or defaced, or made ungentlemanly in conduct or disposition. On the other hand, our college athletics have given city boys a chance to develop a robust physical manhood, and to cultivate a resolution and a pluck in the face of obstacles that are sure to be of service in the battle of life ; they have furnished the country lad with a means for preventing the decadence of his physical powers while undergoing the rigorous mental discipline of prolonged study. Furthermore, they have given the natural physical exuberance of youth a free, legitimate outlet. Who hears of hazing or fighting, or of outrages upon persons or property at Swarthmore ? Yet our German brothers always make the duel a scene of drinking, if not of dnmkenness ; they slash the head and face with cuts that are often long and deep ; and they take this recreation, not in the open air, but in some remote beer room, dense with tobacco smoke. As a means for physical develop- ment the duel amounts to almost nothing. It develops no college spirit, nor can it be said to promote even indirectly a high type of manly conduct. That some departments of athletics have in our larger colleges developed undesirable features every one admits ; that these abuses will be speedily reformed, everybody believes. It will, however, be an unfortunate day for American virility when our college youth eliminate their physical enthusiasms, and degenerate into dudes of the street or pale recluses of the study ; or when their recreations exchange the manliness of the athletic field for the carousing of the Germans or the gentleness of the kitten chasing its own tail. Swarthmore College. Its Origin, and Some Notes upon ris Early History. By Edward H. Magili,. CHAPTER n. HE third year of the College opened in the autumn of 1871, with six members of the Faculty, this body having been increased by the addition of Thomas W. Lamb, A. M., M. D., Professor of Chemistry and Physiology. The whole number of officers of government and instruction, resident and non-resident, was 21, and the whole number of students, 236. Only 57 of these were members of the college, 7 juniors, 18 sophomores, and 31 freshmen. The rest were members of the Prepara- tory School. It was at the opening of this third year that arrangements were first definitely made to furnish those students desiring it a course in Civil Engi- neering, leading to the degree of C. E., and Joseph B. Davis, C. E., a graduate of the University of Michigan, was appointed teacher of Physics and Civil Engineering. A provision had been made, and announced in the catalogue for the previous year, and repeated in that of this year, for giving the degree of A. B. to those students who had pursued twelve annual cou rses of study, comprising the studies of four years, with three studies in each year, and had passed in these satisfactory examinations. These examinations were to be considered satisfactory if tw-enty-five per cent, of correct answers were given. Of these twelve courses two at least must have been in Mathematics, one in English Language and Literature, one in History, one in Physics and Chemistry, and two in an Ancient or a INIodern Foreign language. The other four were to be elected from any of the studies presented in the course, and announced in the catalogue. No pro- vision was yet made for giving any degree in science, although quite a full course of scientific studies was provided. It will be seen that thus early, two years before the first degrees were conferred by the College, a liberal elective system was in full force. I extract the following from the Managers ' Report of this third year: While great care is taken to offer to all an opportunity to pursue a full classical course of study, students are enabled, by the introduction of the optional system, to make choice, under the advice and direction of the Faculty, and their parents or guardians, of such a course as may be most congenial to their tastes, or best adapted to the pursuits of life in which they are to be engaged. This important change in the organization of the College, while it necessarily involves eventually a considerable increase of the corps of instructors, is likely to prove eminently satisfactory to the friends of the institution, enabling the College to meet more fully the wants of all classes, and thereby more nearly fulfil the end for which it was originally established. This step, thus early taken, placed the College in the front rank of the later advance movement in favor of elective courses, and it is but just to say now, after a further experience of twenty years, that the expectations of the Managers as to the favorable results of this change have been fully realized. Under the direction of Dr. Joseph Leidy much was done during this year to increase the Museum of Natural History, and to furnish proper cases for the preservation of the specimens. It was also during this year that Anson Lapham, of Skaneateles, New York, had a room fitted up for the collection of Friends ' books, which was called at first the Anson Lap- ham Repository, a name since changed to Friends ' Historical Library. A gymnasium was also erected and fitted up this year at an expense of between ; 4,ooo and $5,000. This modest accommodation has served the College a good purpose for more than twenty years, and it is hoped that it may now soon give place to a much larger and more substantial structure, better suited to the increased needs of the College and the demands of the times. It should be stated that provision is now made in this respect for the yOung women, by the erection of the new Somerville Hall. At the close of this year occurred the third and last of the Com- memoration Days, this name having been given at first to the closing exercises generally called Commencements. It was at this time that Edward H. Magill, who, as Principal, had Ijecn the acting head of the College and School combined, since the resignation of I resident Parrish, was inaugurated President, with appropriate exercises. At the opening of the fourth year, 1872-3, the Faculty was increased from six to seven, William B. Phillips and Thomas W. Lamb having resigned, and the following having been added to the list: Eugene I ' aulin, A. M., Professor of the Latin and French Languages; Arthur Beardsley, C. E., Professor of Applied Mathematics and Physics, and William H. Appleton, A. M., Professor of the Greek and German Languages. This year for the first time there was the full number of college classes, the first freshman class, now reduced to six, becoming the first senior class. The whole number of students this year reached 260 : 6 seniors, 10 juniors, 14 sophomores, 40 freshmen, and 190 members of the Preparatory School. As degrees were to be conferred for the first time at the close of this college year, the courses of study, and the conditions of conferring degrees received the earnest attention of the Faculty, now increased by the addition of three new members, who have since served the College so long and well. To the degrees already named in previous catalogues that of Bachelor of Science was added for those w ho completed the scientific course, and second degrees of A. M. and M. S. were to be conferred three years after graduation upon those students who, after receiving respectively the degrees of A. B. or of B. S., should have engaged during that period in professional, or in literary and scientific studies. It was during this year that the first step was taken toward diminishing the large Preparatorv School, by deciding to receive no students hereafter under the age of thirteen years. The progress of change from a small college combined with a large school to a college proper has been slow but sure, and now at the end of twenty years more, we can say for the first time that all reference to a Preparatory School is at last eliminated from our catalogue, to the great satisfaction of the Alumni, and other friends of the College. The course in Civil Engineering having been partially arranged last year, was now made more complete and definite, under the care of the new head of this 13 department, Professor Beardsley. I quote the following from the Managers ' Report for twelfth month, 1872 : In connection with the scientific course, coinciding with it through the sophomore class, and branching off in the junior year, a course in Civil Engineering is also established. For this course the degree of C. E. was offered in the catalogue of this year, but it was changed to B. S. in the following year, and C. E. has only been given under proper conditions, three years after graduation. The attempt made by Dr. Joseph Leidy the previous year to secure the necessary funds for increasing the collections of the Museum of Natural History and supplying the proper cases, resulted this year in obtaining about $1,600, with which, under his direction, the most needed improvements were made. But much more was required to place the Museum upon the proper basis as a practical medium of instruction in Natural History. Various other needs began to be increasingly felt, and during the year the Managers made an earnest appeal to the friends of the College, and summed up the principal present requirements, as follows : Apparatus and Reference Books for Chemical Labor- atory, $500 Apparatus and Reference Books for Physical Labor- atory, 500 • Cases and Specimens for Museum of Natural History, 2,000 Books, Maps, Charts, etc., for Reference Library, . 1,000 Workshop and Mechanical Appliances, 1,000 Girls ' Gymnasium and Natatorium, 5,000 They close their earnest appeal in these words, which are applicable to-day and always to all institutions for advanced education : If Swarth- more had for its chief object the accumulation of money instead of the advancement of the cause of education, there is no doubt but that a surplus for a few years at least could be readily saved from the present receipts, for the simple reason that much more would be received from the public than would be given to the public in return. Our College was surely never intended to be managed upon such principles, and to become a pensioner 14 upon the public instead of a public benefactor. If its annual receipts con- tinue to cover its regular current expenses and repairs, it is all that its best friends can reasonably expect ; and the improvements must continue to be made until the institution is largely endowed by constantly renewed and liberal private subscriptions. At the close of this year the first senior class of six was graduated at the first Annual Commencement of the College, all taking the classical degree of A. B. The exercises of this first graduating class (five young women and one young man) were printed in full, in pamphlet form, and constitute an interesting chapter in the early history of the College. It was during this first year that Edward Parrish, the first President of the College died, at Fort Sill, Indian Territory. He had been selected by President Grant to represent the government in an effort to make pacific arrangements between the Indians and the United States, and died while devoted to what promised to be a successful and useful service. I cannot better close this second chapter of Swarthmore ' s early history than by the following quotation from the opening of the Managers ' Report for 1872 : It is eminently fitting that allusion should be made in the opening of this report to the recent death of the first President of the College, Edward Parrish. One of the pioneers in the great wor k of founding a college, he was a most earnest and indefatigable laborer in the cause, and it was largely owing to his personal exertions that success so early crowned our efforts. Very many of the stockholders will remember that their interest in Svvarthmore was first awakened by his voice and pen. By conversation in that wide circle of Friends in which he moved, and where he was so much beloved ; by extensive correspondence, by public addresses, and by his work entitled Ediicatiivi in the Society of Friends, he did much to arouse attention to the importance of establishing among us an institution for higher culture ; culture not of the mind alone, but of the heart as well ; and thus, in connection with his untiring efforts to secure the means neces- sary for carrying out this design, he performed a labor destined to have a lasting influence for good upon our religious society, and upon the com- munity at large. 15 FACULTY.

Yell :— Whiff, whack, Gold and Black, Hoo Roar, ' 94, Hiss, Boom, Ah ! HT last, most worthy Seniors, our turn has come to address yoti. We will, to the best of our ability, attempt to publish to the world your brilliant achievements — that is, if we can, by means as yet unforeseen, obtain back records of your most noble deeds. Yes, it is an honor, we must admit, but oh ! such a task ! for, do you know, much valuable time has already been lost in making those attempts. Of course, we have known you for only three years, and when we came as Freshmen we were struck, notwithstanding your number, by the insig- nificance of ' 94, but now that you are Seniors, of course you must have a fuss made over you ; you must be written about, talked about, praised and dispraised. Now let us recall to you a few things which you may have forgotten. All through your college life, ' 94, you seem to have reversed that well- known maxim, ' ' Actions speak louder than words. Do you remember how, in your Sophomore year, you vowed you would not allow these meek 22 and innocent Freshmen to carry canes to meeting? Yes, and you took it out in vowing, for you may recall what a large number of us did carry them. Besides this, ' 94, during your first two years in college, had it not been for that little word if, surely you would have both times carried off the Childs ' and Phoenix Cups. Well, after three years of talk, you did win the Phoenix Cup, but, alas ! only by accident. You may recall how the fates favored you that day, when, in the 220 yards hurdle race, one hurdler, 20 yards in the lead, tripped over the last hurdle and so lost the race and gave you the cup. J ust one thing more, for, of course, you feel badly, dears. You are not the most harmonious class in college, but there is one thing you are united in, yes, c; (? thing, You have agreed to disagree. Truly, you are to be congratulated upon being unanimous in this. Alas ! there is not much to praise you for; perhaps it is as well, for we do not wish to spoil you, as we have a kindly interest in your welfare. We want you to be prepared for the ups and downs which are ever in the paths of life. Do not be discouraged, dear young friends, but if ever such feelings should o ' ertake you, we wish you to feel assured that ' 95 is ever willing to lend a helping hand. Officers of Class of ' 94.

' SUCH a lot of huge 96 ' s as have decorated our walls and walks and grand stand and every place else during the last year ! There seemed to be nothing else but the figures 96 wherever we looked, and we even saw them in our dreams. Now, dear young friends, it is the very worst kind of bad taste to make yourselves so conspicuous by things of that sort; try, instead, to do it by your wit, athletic ability, stu- dious habits, etc. And let us gently remind you of the wise old saying which you must often have heard but seem to have forgotten. It is some- thing like this : Fools ' names, like their faces — we will spare you the rest. 34 -e lR P We wonder if you remember how you spent almost a whole night climbing up the college and placing your wonderful flag on the to]j, and how one of our members took it down in a few minutes by simply getting the keys of the dome-room. You should learn to do things in a dignified, proper way, Sophomores. We know you will shrink at the next subject we mention — the gift to the college of your foot-ball picture for a decoration, we suppose, for the wall. We have never been officially informed as to whether or not the Faculty sent you a vote of thanks for it. Did they ? We noticed, too, with sadness, that it disappeared. Where did it go, ' 96 ! You claimed the foot-ball championship this year, didn ' t you? You ought to be old enough to know that if there are no class games played, there can be no championship ; although, of course, there can be no doubt of your ability, no, not for a moment. You surely would have won it had not all the other classes been too terrified by your power to even think of competing with you. (This is a figure of speech called Sarcasm, If you have not come to it yet, see Rhetoric, p. 43.) But we won ' t tease you any more, ' 96, for you are a pretty nice class after all, and surely if numbers count, we ought to be proud of you. Let us leave you now with just a word of caution— do be careful not to injure your health next year in the arduous task of preparing the Halcyon, for that is what your honorable predecessors have done. 9 - 9 to -9( 35 Class of ' 96.

To begin with, you are a very youthful class — that is, with one or two exceptions — so, of course, that accounts for your inexperience in College and Class affairs. This may be overcome, though, in time and by observing the actions of the Upper Classes. Your elections went off beautifully — such a contrast to the Class above you. We are so glad that you did not hold half-holiday sessions twice a week for the purpose of electing a President. You decided early in the year that you, like the other Classes, would like to have a yell and motto ; at last, after a great struggle, you did get them both. The motto is Greek and the yell — well, it is original and really cute, but it was too bad you couldn ' t get something to rhyme with seven. Another thing you wanted was a banner; yes, you got it, but I guess we won ' t say much about that, for we know the poor, sickly thing feels badly when at the receptions with the other banners. You must feel very thankful that you borrowed a banner when your Class picture was taken. Your own would have been a grave contrast to your bright and healthy countenances. Indeed, ' 95 ' s banner sends her deepest sympathy to that of ' 97. To one of your number we would say that in case she is ever called on again to act in the Secretary ' s place during her absence, it is customary to say she was Secretary J?ro fern. , not that she was playing Secretary ; to another, we would say that it is not the custom for a Class to elect its foot- ball team. With this advice we leave you : Use your past mistakes and failures as buildina: materials for future success. 39 Freshmen Class. Arts. Jesse W. Jefferis, Chester, Pa. Edith F.

In fact, you are so nearly exterminated now that we can hardly find you. But listen : on you reposes the appalling responsibility of maintaining the elevated standard of the sub-collegiate department as a portion of our institution, and — but there, don ' t cry, it isn ' t as bad as it sounds. You have not yet organized, you have no Constitution, no yell, no colors, no officers; in fact, hardly anything. Perhaps you have sent home asking papa if it is positively necessary that you have a Constitution. If you have and are waiting for the reply it would have saved you a great deal of trouble had you asked us, for we would have told you that it was at least customary. And if you will look in the rhyming dictionary you can easily find a word to rhyme with eight, so there can be no trouble about your yell. And for colors — how would bright green and a little lighter shade do? 42 That is a very pretty coml)ination, and we think has not yet been used by a class. For your motto, let us only suggest that it might be well to have it English. Dear little boylets and little girllets, don ' t play with any more tin cans, or at least if you do, do put them away when you arc through with them, and don ' t hang them on the trees. If you should want to ask our advice about anything, address your notice to the Side Talks with Boys and Girls, and if we are not too crowded for space, we will answer it.

HSIDE from their regular college duties, nothing perhaps, is more advantageous to the students than the definite mental training afforded by the three Literary Societies : namely, Eunomian, Somerville, and Delphic. Here the knowledge obtained in the class-room is put into practical application in the form of debates, orations, public speaking, etc., while each society gives its members the excellent opportunity of obtaining well selected books from its library. In addition to this the Eunomian and Delphic have their respective reading-rooms, where the leading daily papers and instructive magazines are kept. The two chapters of the Somerville Society now meet together, and one chapter is alternately entertained by the other. ' One of the features of this society is the Phrenaskia, the society paper, while the event of the year is the reunion which calls the ex-members back for at least a day ; thus yearly renewing the sacred memories which ever cling to their Ab7ia Mater. The society is to be congratulated on having erected. a very imposing gymnasium near the College, and it may before long add to this a hall for better literary accommodations. To the members of the Eunomian are offered the Hicks ' prize for the best declamation, and the .Battin prize for the greatest improvement in parliamentary ruling. The members of the Delphic compete for the Delphic Oratorical prizes and the Ponder Oratorical prize. Also, the Underwood prize is offered to the under-classman making the greatest improvement in debate during the year. Another interesting feature of this society is the Delphic Oracle, which is edited by the members, and read monthly before the society. 44 Eunomian Literary Society. MEMBERS.

HE Latin Seminary has been revived this year, in two sections, under L- the leadership of Professor Price. Its work consists of the study of those phases of ancient Roman life which, from lack of time, cannot be taken up in the class-room. The Senior and Junior section study especially the religion, family life, and customs of the Romans, while the Sophomore and Freshmen section look into the site, ruins, and topography of Rome. Meetings are held monthly. 54 SENIOR AND JUNIOR SECTION. OFFICERS. P7-esideni, Professor Ferris W. Prick. Secretary, Emma S. Ciiambrrs, ' 94. MEMBERS. Ferris W. Price. Anna S. Atkinson, Edwin P.

The history of ancient manuscript-writing, missals, i and illuminations is pursued ; also the history of printing, and details of the printer ' s and publisher ' s part in the making of books. After these preliminary studies, a poet is taken up and some of his representative works critically inquired into with reference to their sources, their background, and their growth, as illustrati ng the development of the poet ' s verse-craft. The poet studied this year is Tennyson. The Seminary is conducted by J. Russell Hayes, Assistant in English, and meetings are held monthly. Bouic L. Clark, M. Louise Curtiss, , Charles E.

URING the last half century that universal and very popular insti- 5 tution, the Fraternity, has slowly but steadily grown from a dwarfed infancy to a ripe and flourishing maturity. The Faculties of colleges and universities now recognize the necessity there is for the phase of life that the Fraternity brings, and have acceded to requests which have been sent in to them, from time to time, to institute chapters, until now most of the large universities have twenty or more Fraternities repre- sented among their students. The narrow path of the man that is simply a student and a book-worm is not satisfactory to the average youth, who, though coming to college presumably for the purpose of devoting his time and attention to his schol- arly pursuits, finds out, before many months have expired, that he needs diversion and relaxation from the plodding duties of school routine. The average man is a social creature, naturally fond of mingling with his fel- lows ; for he has been accustomed, since his infancy, to the close compan- ionship of the members of his family, and possibly to the society of many friends. He does not realize what these friendships of his childhood have meant to him- until he enters the new life that college opens out to him, where he sees no face that is not strange and unfamiliar to him. He longs for his old companions, and, above all, he misses the brother that has been his playfellow through childhood and his warm, sincere friend during his boyhood days. Immediately he begins to look about for a man in whom he may confide, as he did in this brother. This friend may enter into his life, but unless there is a real bond of union, unless there is a mutual arrangement for protection, help, and advancement, t he brotherly feeling is 60 lacking. The Fraternity fills this need thoroughly ; for the union that is felt in this brotherly love is the best substitute there is for blood-relationship. Upon entering a Fraternity, each man is made to believe that a duty has been placed upon him for him to perform to the best of his ability. He must not in any way, by any action of his, mar the reputation of his Fra- ternity, and, if it is in his power to do so, he must imjjrove this reputation by becoming a prominent factor in the moral and literary as well as in the social world. Many an indolent fellow, shirking his studies and college duties, has, because of this feeling, and because of the influence of his more energetic brothers, become an excellent student, doing honor to himself and family as well as to his Fraternity. With the advancement in the line of woman ' s work, we find them fol- lowing this admirable example set by their brothers, since they also have felt the need of a close social union in college life. It was not until nearly 1870, however, that the first woman ' s Fraternity made its appearance among its many Hellenic brothers. Comparatively soon after the founding of Swarthmore College, in the term of 1888-89, the two chapters, the Pi of Kappa Sigma, and the Penn- sylvania Kappa of Phi Kappa Psi, introduced the Fraternity element of college life here. The success with which these chapters met encouraged the other sex to apply for a charter, which was granted and established in 1 89 1, — the Alpha Beta of Kappa Alpha Theta. During the next term, 1892-93, more Fraternity life became represented here. The Pennsylvania Alpha of Pi Beta Phi, early in the term, made its appearance, and the Beta Iota of Kappa Kappa Gamma during the next spring. In this present year also do we find that the Swarthmore mind is tending more and more toward fraternal feelings, for the Sophomore society, the Theta Nu Epsilon, has lately been instituted, and the local Fraternity, the Pi Kappa Omicron of the last few years, has merged into the Swarthmore chapter of Delta Upsilon. To the last three chapters mentioned, to this Greek world that is repre- sented in The Halcyon for the first time this year, we extend the best wishes for a successful and prosperous life, and we give you the grip of kindliest and heartiest good-will. 61 Pi Chapter Kappa Sigma Fraternity.

Si Athletics. fT would require but a very cursory and superficial glance at IJu- urr )undin .s of the College to determine the basis of its physical training. With uch a mazy vista ' of fairly conditioned lanes, leading through very pleasant mead and hillock, with comparative immunity from gaping curiosity and ribald criticism, it is small wonder that open air work is the matrice of Swarthmore ' s physical life. The environment beckons for quick, active, moving youth, full-blooded, deep breathers, sharp witted, ready- resourced, completely purposed, undauntedly brave. And it has been our work to supply just such principles to our landscape. We believe and teach that half an hour of activity in the free sun, under the bright sky, in the pure air, will give results of greater functional benefit and permanency than hours of labor in an artificially ventilated, unnaturally-furnished room, and all our men believe simi- larly ; hence it is that our greatest activity is shown upon the track, the gridiron, and the diamond. Our system of physical education is very simple. The beginning takes us to the gym- nasium, where we develop the muscular structure and strive after an even, harmonious body ; from there we test the strength of legs and power of lungs by daily runs through the by-ways and highways of the borough ; then we educate co-ordination and mental activity by a careful study and practice, to acquire perfect form for engaging in contests of speed, skill, activity, and endurance in the sprints, the jumps, the runs, the hurdling, the weights of our athletic Inter-Collegiate competition, striving to wave the Garnet in supremacy over all our fellow colleges, and learning lessons of sobriety, discretion, persistence, and equanimity. Then comes the struggles with the pig-skin — truly a microcosm, the mimic strife of life, — for in life, as in foot-ball, there must be a purpose, to be studied in all its phases of success and failure ; means must be evolved to hasten victory or avoid defeat, requiring a perseverance of action, a stability of endeavor, and an unflinching courage to meet all un- expected and adverse conditions, and, whilst fighting desperately, never to lose sight of the fundamental factor of our civilization, — always to be a gentleman of refinement, culture, and purity, and never allow the primitive elements of bnitality, craftiness, and selfishness to crop to the surface. These are the lessons, and this the object of all our physical education, training, and sports. And how do we reach this result? 83 In the Gymnasium. — By dividing ourselves into sections and groups according to our needs and powers, and gradually by ascending series of exercising we increase the size, tbe strength, the mobility, and co-ordinating powers of our muscular system, eliminating all chances to strains and injury until the education is sufficient to engage in those movements requiring undaunted spirit and quick activity. The time that can be given is insufficien ' to take us much beyond the bas ' c results, and yet Swarthmore has a fairly able gymnastic team, with its standards of performances and ability, and its reward, together with an intelligent idea of the possibilities and educational advantages of our present Gym. and its higher types ; and we all hope that at some, no dim, future day our college may possess the very highest type of an intelligent, rational gymnasium. On the Track. — From- the work in the gymnasium we start out to do our cross-country running. On the surface it is simply a means of using the legs and lungs, and of great ini- portance to every one, but, veiled by this, is the study of the moral characteristics of the men. In these runs it is quickly seen who are deficient in will-power, who lack stamina, who require courage, who need coaxing, who restraining. And it is the imconscious correction of these deficiencies that is really the important function of our prelnninary training. Besides, here is developed our morale, our esprit de corps, o xx unflinching devotion to the Garnet ; for, gradually, the mob of runners unite into a mass with one purpose — self is sunk and the team results. The first dawn of the abasement of the individual, and the uplifting of the idea, demonstrates the ethics of the sport. From this out the man with his hopes, aspira- tions, jealousies, burns away, and from his ashes the Phanix rises, formed into one body, part helping part, striving to rise higher and higher. Once the fabled vision seen, our work only requires refining and perfecting. Improvements gradually show, and our material daily becomes enriched, so that when we meet our sister colleges in friendly strife, it is not a ques- tion of WHO may win an individual place, but what one may do to help another and win for the team— for Swarthmore, — the first and only place— the victory. Those who fail to make the team do not fall, but keeping alive the purpose, labor to fit themselves for the next struggle. Those who survive endeavor to help on any weary, lag- ging, flinching brother by encouraging advice, by stimulation, by example ; for the polish comes from all to all. This is the- secret of the success afforded us of limited numbers, years, and opportunities against those unlimited in all resources. Our motto — Swarthmore ! first, always, and for- ever ! When victory perches on our banner, every Swarthmorean raises a peean. When defeat is ours, the college mourns with us; no recrimination, no scourging.no contempt; only a glance of sympathy, and a cheery You did your best ! Well done ! ' In Foot-Ball. — The lessons learned on the track are carried to our new field of action. We have ■3. purpose, well defined, with all our efforts converging to that. Personal preference, family ?nd social ties, fraternal feeling are such unknown quantities as never to be thought of. The liest man gets the place, our fundamental point, and it is so well recognized that when the personal struggle waxes the hottest, and the merits of two men arc on the balance, neither one would hesitate one instant to recognize a fault and correct it as quickly, even though perfectly evident the correction will give the place to his rival. No one can come to Whittierfield and witness this intense striving with every muscle, nerve, and centre at its highest tension, and see this Uayard courtesy, encouraging, correcting, coaching the bitterest personal rival, so that the team may be made stronger, better, firmer, and then go away fail- ing to respect and bless the sport, the spirit which makes true men of us all. Every man on the team undergoes privations, relinquishes luxuries, foregoes pleasures, faces discouragement, smiles at Lamella ' s tortures. Day after day, through storm and fair, may be seen this striving on the track, on the field, on the rack, to win — what ? A rej utation for the college ; to do so well that Swarthmore may be highly spoken of; to gain the good opinion of their classmates ; a bauble, an ephemeral reward, a charm to the foot-ball ; ap- plause to the gymnast ; a golden token to the athlete ; to all, the tranquillity of having striven well. A Braid, a Cap, and the Yes ! but what the result ? Stronger, heartier, healthier men ; quickened and broadened minds; steady, tranquil nerves ; human beings liberal and sympathetic to their fellow-men ; undaunted and unflinching in facing difficulties, and with courage and ability to surmount obstacles. Men ready for the age, equipped to meet the times. Types for which brave Walt Whitman tuned his voice and sang, and his leaves have turned to brave saplings, grow- ing to sturdy oaks — the bulwarks of our country. What we are doing at .Swarthmore hundreds of others are doing, and yearly returning to the world ' s entrance those who, equipped with sound minds in sturdy bodies, will strive with brave morality to strengthen, develop, and sustain in every walk, in every station, in every emergency, the stability and permanency of our institutions and our country.

Only a homely, wooden structure. Weather-beaten and worn and old, But then it ' s the sturdiest friend in the college, Standing alone in the heat and the cold. Only a small one compared to others That grace the larger foot-ball fields ; But loyarare even its wooden benches. And constant and sure the shelter it yields. For it has witnessed our joys and triumphs, And it has seen us defeated as well. But through it all waved our well -beloved Garnet Its ever true patriotism to tell. Crowded are oft its time-worn benches With strangers applauding with voice and hand, But greater than all is the love and reverence That Swarthmore has for its old grand stand. Prologue.

On the hill above Crura River Stands the wigwam of the chieftain, Of the great and mighty chieftain, Who instructs the tribes of Swarthmore, Aided by the chiefs —his comrades. Tribes here pass the winter season. Learning all the lore their fathers Had been taught in former ages, — Of the Jossakeeds, the prophets. The Wabenos, the magicians, And the medicine-men, the Medas. Here they skate upon the i-iver. Till the evening sun, descending. Warns them that the time is nearing For the evening feast, the banquet. At this feast they eat the beefsteak, And they bring their knives and hatchets To manipulate this beefsteak. And they eat the white potatoes. Sweet potatoes, and the maize-ear, And the ancient bread and hardened. Happily they pas s their days here, With their friends and close companions. And, to add to their enjoyment. Come the feast-days of the winter, Which they spend with other nations. Then they hasten from the wigwam. And betake themselves to countries Where the turkeys are abundant, And their knives they carry with them. But behind them leave their hatchets. Most important of these feast-days Is the one in midst of winter. Is the one on which the nations Give unto each other pi-esents. And the great and mighty chieftain Always gives decrees and orders On what day the tribes shall start out On their journey to these nations. On what day they shall start homeward. So it came about one winter That the order thus was given — That the tribes should go the fourth-day Ere the feast day of midwinter. Mostly when these laws are given. Do the tri bes respect, obey them ; But this once did they consider That the chieftain and his comrades Had proclaimed the law unjustly. And they held a mighty meeting, When the voice of each brave warrior Cried against the base injustice Of allowing three days only For the mighty preparations. And the long and tedious journey. And they chose, among their number. Two to bring before the council Of the chieftain and his comrades A petition asking, begging. That they might depart the sixth day Ere the feast-day of midwinter. In the council of the leaders Was discussion long and varied. And each member of the council Gave his view and gave his reasons Why this should or should not be so. First the chieftain of the Swarthmores Told the comrades his opinions. Said he thought the other nations Would not be prepared to have them ; For the message had been sent them When they might expect the Swarthmores. Then he took his seat ; and Beasy Rose and took a survey round him. io8 Said he thought the idea brilliant That the warriors had suggested. Then a sigh passed round among them. Then the leader of the maidens Said she wished it might be granted, But she thought the other nations, When they saw the Swarthmores coming Two days sooner than expected, Disobedient would they think them. Disobedient to their chieftain, To his comrades, and companions. Then a smile passed o ' er their faces. Then arose before the council Mighty leader of the PVenchees, From the glorious tribe of Hicksites, Said he really could not have this. Must review the tribe of Frenchees On the fifth before the feast-day, Could not let it wait till after They returned from their vacation. All looked sober, all were thoughtful. Then rose Susan of the Konics — Learned Susan of the Konics — Said she did not see the reason Why the tribes were so presuming As to wish for more vacation Than the chiefs themselves had wanted. Then sat down and all were silent. Till arose the chief of Trotters. From his pocket gleamed his peace-pipe, Made of red-stone from the quarry, Said he thought he liked the idea Of the two days more vacation. Sat him down and smoked his peace-pipe. Then arose the chief of Kemics, Said that he saw no objection To the reasons and opinions Of the learned chief of Konics, Took his seat beside his neighbor, Close beside the chief of Trotters, Joined him in his occupation. Kosc he of the tiibe of Fisics, Told them that it should be granted What the warriors now had asked lliem, .Since they seldom asked for favors, And he thought them well-dcservirig, Worthy of this little favor. Then she of the tribe of Germans, Rose and sighed with untold feeling, Sat her down again in silence. Varied were the chiefs ' opinions, But, at length, arose the chieftain, Said they ' d bargain, sj lit the difference, Send the triijcs unto the nations On the fifth before the feast-day. Thus the council of the chieftains Ended ; and they left the wigwam. On tlie morrow at th ' assembling Of the mighty triljes of nations. This decree the chieftain published. And rejoicings were abundant In the hearts of all the warriors. On the fifth before the feast ( ' ay. On this day of great rejoicing, All set forth, both youths and maidens. Just before the evening banquet, At the thought of which, lamenting. They then felt a mighty sorrow, ' Midst the thoughts of joy and gladness. That they thus should miss the banquet. Miss the beefsteak and the maize-ear, Which so long had been their pleasure. Happy, joyful, was the sojourn That they spent with other nations, On the feast-days of this winter. ' Mongst the records of the Swarthmores This decree will rank the highest, In the minds of these bold warriors. Also will it be remembered Long years hence b} ' their descendants. 109 The Ferris Wheel. Within the great white city, ith spokes and bars of steel, Arose in pomp and splendor. The famous Ferris Wheel. Upon its back, the people From far and near went round ; A wondrous feat they thought it To touch both sky and ground. But now the Fair is over, The wheel has gone away ; And where you 11 find its dwelling, It is not hard to say. Around the scenes of Swarthmore, When sky is all serene. With one good jolly rider, It often may be seen. No more it views the temples, Results of man ' s great skill ; But haunts the works of nature. The greatest wonder still. This little gem of Swarthmore, Great fame will ne ' er produce, For never is it Priceless, E.Ncept when not in use. How queer to think it monstrous, While serving at the Fair, When now it ' s quite diminished, And lost its constant wear. Yet no one can deny it. However he may feel ; We have it here at Swarthmore, And ' tis the Fe rris Wheel. ' Regardless of Their Doom the Little Victims Slept. Two little Subs, in two beds lay, And, as they were asleeping, A naughty Freshman passed that way Along the fourth floor creeping. He takes two stolen ' lasses jugs, And, as each Sub. reposes, He pours the ' lasses out the jugs Down on their little noses. The charm was broke, the Subs, awoke, And saw with sticky terror. That childhood ' s dream of innocence Was one great, glaring error. A Suggestion to Note= Writers. (Try reading every other line.) My Dear Dolly : I suppose I shall see you to-night as usual in the parlor, as Mrs. Bond seems to object to meetings in the alcove. Come as soon as you possibly can after dinner, for I want to go with the boys to the station to get some ice cream which I bought this afternoon in Media. A crowd of us fellows on the fourth floor are going to have a feast ; ■ after that we will go down to have a fine moonlight skate. We will play it during social hour with some of the Seniors, if you have no objections. Won ' t it be nice ? We can get up a petition to lengthen the holidays and let us go home at twelve o ' clock. Yours cordially, December the eighteenth. Dick. Ill Grimly from grimy gloom glides a gray ghost, grinning at the guileless guyer, who flees far from the fiend of fearful form.

Alcoves innumerable, there are to be, Oh ! promise me ; oh ! promise me. The rising bell will ring at half-past eight. And if you ' re tired you ' re not counted late.

Have done the Fair, but am loath to leave the pretty girl in the Irish Village. Essie and I did not approve of the Plaisance. The Ferris Wheel was so big. The moving sidewalk v rent so fast that my sister and I couldn ' t get our breath. As there were xvo ponies I rode a camel. I just roared at the lions. The bridal procession in Cairo took my fancy. I spent most of my time in the Buildings for Public Comfort. The Agricultural Building beat everything. There is the most exquisite glass dress in the Libby Glass Works. Nothing at the Fair can compare to Chair Wheeler, No. 67. I prefer the Beauty Show. I certainly did think the Midway was powerful peculiar. The Beauty Show could not compare with our family.

H Y dear fellow-students, for a long time I have felt the spirit within me, urging me II to speak with you concerning those higher things of which I fear you think far, ' ■■• far too little. Grieved, sadly grieved, have I felt to see how many of you were walking in the broad, wide road that leads but to ruin and destruction ; and how few, alas ! how very few, were following the narrow, winding path which has its ending ' mid the sublime glories of the kingdom of everlasting life. Sadly, sadly have I noticed some of my Classmates who, having lost all honor and every semblance of self-respect, were actually cheating in Class. Pity, unutterable pity, I feel for you, my brethren, when I see you using that lying, thieving, vile thing which you, in your unmindful guiltiness, call a pony. Yes, my dear friends, things are in a most deplorable condition. Even at the dinner- table, when you should be full of gratitude for the bounties set before you, you engage in that frivolous, cheap talk so harassing to the delicate feelings of those among you who are refined in taste. But a short time ago, at one table the conversation became so objectionable that a person had to change his seat to another table in order to escape from it. My beloved fellow-students, you have been following too much the evil-prompting spirit within you; you have, in your egotistical selfishness, taken sides with the strong in the oppressing and -down-treading of the weak. Would it not be better to sacrifice your own petty desires and to throw yourselves in the cause of the feeble against the hardy ? As an illustration of this piincip ' e of self-sacrifice, I will cite a case which has just come to my mind which occurred recently in our midst. A young man possessed of the highest ora- torical ability was called upon to decide which Literary Society he would join, to take his starid, as it were, for weak or strong. And, my dear friends, it gives me joy to tell you that he stood by the weak, and in this case, as in all others, righteousness had a. fifteen fold reward. It would be well, my brethren, if some among you would follow such examples as this. ii6 But, my clear friends, of all your worldly faults, the greatest is hypocrisy. I see how little is the reward here upon earth for us who lead lionest, conscientious lives and are com- pelled to associate with those canting hypocrites who pass in the world as good and truthful, while in the depths of their hearts they are governed by the most abject and ignoble feelings of deceit. But, in the world to come, industry, honesty, and truth ; and ponying, hypocrisy, and deceit will have two far different rewards. Consider, my friends, that we who follow the narrow, winding path will .some day, far above the world, in all the radiance of our purity and strength, look down upon you, who, in the incandescent depths of the glowing, fiery pit of destruction, will wail forth to the heavens above ' mid the throbs of ) our eternal agony. Yes, now, right now, is the time to consider. Now is the time to leave the wide road of destruction and to follow the ways of righteousness and walk in the light. Mother Goose up to Date.

The evening bright and gay, The Seniors sitting in a row To wait their turns to play. The mandolin ' s sweet music, The glee club ' s soft refrain. Oh ! how we wish ' t could be again, But, oh ! it never can. We remember, we remember. The voices soft and low, For different parts they ' d learned the art Of having them just so. The graceful (?) gestures of the hand, Which in delight they made Whene ' er occasion gave the chance Their skill to be displayed. We remember, we remember. The maid dressed all in white, The startled looks, the sweet discourse When homo met her sight. The music of old Ariel That seemed to pierce the air Till one did think the nightingale Had by mistake come there. Il8 We remember, we remember, The screen so tall and fine To hide the actors ' tween the scenes, No doubt, was its design. But, lo ! its purpose was amiss, For those who sat up high Could gaze upon two manly forms That were concealed (?) thereby. We remember, we remember, The stone wall dark and high. Where Pyramus and Thisbe met When the Moon was in the sky. The dangerous lion prowling round, Who on them woe did bring, And brought the lovers to one grave, Of this ' twere sad to sing. We remember, we remember, It all so very well, But all, we could not mention, ' Twould take too long to tell. But we will ne ' er forget it, Forget it, can no man, And how we wish ' t could be again. But, oh ! it never can. 119 The Sinners ' Progress Through Swarthmore. HS I slept another time in meeting and snored, I dreamed a dream. I dreamed, and, behold ! I saw two boys casting in their minds how to keep New Year ' s ; the name of one was Webb, from the land of the Aztecs, and the other was Brick. When midnight was come, they went in, and rang the bells for joy, and made the fearfullest noise that ever I heard. Now this noise smote the ears of all the goodly people living round about ; and they had troubled dreams, and would not sleep for sorrow, and their souls were sore tried. Then did the boys go out along the Midway ; now there are steps in it for all to climb. So the boys painted a memorial of the times there, and it said, A Happy New Year, 1894. And with that they cried aloud for joy ; and then sounds of approval came from the fair East and gladdened the boys ' hearts. Then the world went to sleep again. Now, when the sun was up, William the Supe arose for to go forth. And when he was come to the steps, his anger waxed great. So when he found the two boys, he began thus to question with them, How is it you have done this? I am ashamed of thee, Webb, for thou art, indeed, full of wisdom. But, Brick, thou didst just as I thought — thou art yet young and simple. And with that, he said, Go and undo what you have done. And they went. All New Year ' s morn they did scrub and scour, for they used elbow grease and blotting paper to take off the paint. Now their joints waxed sore in the strife, and they toiled from dawn to night, when men go in out of the darkness. Now the foul paint-stain stays on the steps to this day. When the sons and daughters of Lord Charles go up and down, they wink the other eye and say, Lo ! these boys were over-foolish. Come, let us go, and try their souls about that New Year morn. For, you must know, the twain bear ill anything touching that time. And with that my dream ended, for the President nodded by chance, too soon, to the Senior boys; and so the meeting broke up. .A pr fr - Chronicles, 1893. 1893.

We do not think it desirable for you to ask a young man, whom you have only met once, to sing a duet with you ; wait until you have seen him a few times more, and then let him ask permission to sing with you.

If you don ' t care to use curl papers or tongs to curl your hair, try the ordinary kid rollers ; they will not injure the hair, and they make a very soft, pretty curl. N B. S — T-. No, we cannot say that we think it in the best of taste to do as you say. We think it would be much better to receive your young gentle- men callers with your shoes on than in your stocking feet. 123 Somerville Hall. Hearty welcome we give to thee, Somerville Hall, That hath lately been born for our sake, A very dear, much-needed building thou art. And we all a great pride in thee take. Thou art smaller, ' tis true, than at first we contrived, But then it must be thou wilt grow, Ah ! we pray that thy fate may not be the same As scrub oaks planted here long ago. We will dream of the days in the future afar, When we who are absent return And see our great hall nice ' y furnished, complete. And of its great usefulness learn. And when the time comes our reunions to hold We will gather in Somerville Hall, In our wide, spacious parlors the banquets we ' ll hold, And for toasts to our building we ' ll call. 124 From Whom ? Dear Auntie. I thought that I would write you a letter and tell you how I like Swarthmore. I got Papa to write it for me, but he just puts down what I say, so it is from me. Papa says that next year, maybe I can write a letter all by myself, and he says I must soon learn to write real well. Swarthmore is a very nice place, not a bit like a house. The halls are ' most a mile long, I guess; and you eat with a great many people all around you. There are about fifty tables, I guess, with lots and lots of people at them all, and people that I never did see before laugh at me and make me feel like running away sometimes. They all are very good to me and take me for walks ' way off. One lady is so good to me. She used to play leaves with me once, and she takes me to walk ' most every day now, and I go to see her lots, and she gives me cakes and candy and shows me pretty pictures and things. The boys tease me; they lift me ' way up in the sky, and nearly make me fall down sometimes. And they run after me in the halls. Papa says I have written a long letter and that you will like it very much. I hope you do. Your very loving nephew, Wild Flowers. A Freshman from the country, sir, I ' m green as green can be. They say while walking on the grass, I ' m very hard to see. But I ' ve got one complaint to make, If you ' ll permit me, please, And it ' s about those awful things You call societies. As I stepped off the train of cars. Which rolled into your station, Two reckless mobs came racing down, And yelled like all creation. ■ ' O ! say ! The Delphic is the stuff ! Look here, sport, Ws no good ! Just join the old Eunomian— You ' ll do it, won ' t you, pard ? What they were at, ' twas hard to guess, But I found out e ' er long ; From that unhappy moment, sir. They ' ve sung their little song. They ' ve pulled me for societies, ' Till life in sadness goes. And sometimes the Eunomians With Delphics come to blows. But should I finally give way. And be pulled right in two. My sorrows then would have an end. For both mobs I would do. J. W. J. ' 97- I 26 A Swarthmore Farce. Drai7iatis Personic : Miss C, Class of Students, Cone A, B, C.

Though I ' m a lawyer, I have seen Full many a school-boy hazing ; And yet of all I ever saw Was mine the most amazing. The day before I ' d journeyed down To see old Swarthmore College, For many a year had glided by Since there I sought for knowledge. It came, as hazings always do, When boys revenge are scheming, A peaceful calm, a thunderous roar. That woke me from my dreaming ; For down the asphalt, as I strolled With peaceful heart and quiet, Lo ! I was seized by ruffian hands And pressed into the riot. Jove ! how things whirled before my eyes, The pavement and the station. And never have I felt since then That strange, uncouth sensation; From all sides sprang up armed hots With masks and sharpened razors ; Blindfold they led me to the woods. These rattle-brained young hazers. The mud was deep, I feared me much To spoil my New York trousers. So by request they turned them up, ' Twas kind of those carousers ! But, oh ! they shaved my whiskers off. To give them sport and pleasure ; Farewell, farewell, I faintly cried ; My treasure, oh ! my treasure ! I ' ve had some whiskers new, since then. Raised by manoeuvres clever. But those, my auburn pride, have gone Forever and forever. And not till Fate has blotted out All mem ' ry of those friskers, This aching heart shall cease to mourn My loved, my long-lost whiskers. XLhc iftissiiiQ Score.

Notwithstanding a package may be nicely put up, and labelled Pure, or even -j Warranted Pure, it is deploiably true that an examination of the con- tents, in many cases, has revealed the presence of a cheapening ingredient, or that the spice has been ground from an inferior crude material. We give to our Flavoring Extracts the same careful attention. Vanilla we prepare from the best quality of Mexican Bean, by a process of our own, which gives us the perfect aroma of the bean in all its delightful freshness, richness, and purity. This state- ment will be verified by all who have used our Extract. We ask those • V who have not done so, to give our Extracts a trial. These Extracts are offei ' ed in bottles containing two and four ounces, half pints, pints, and quarts. If your Druggist or Grocer cannot supply our Spices or Extracts send your orders direct to us.

If you wish to take REGULAR DAILY EXERCISE, and not be compelled to desist from work because of SORE MUSCLES, you must, after exercising, THOR- OUGHLY RUB the MUSCLES with POND ' S EXTRACT. By its use you are made QUICK and ACTIVE, and ALL SORENESS, STIFFNESSS, or SWELLING is prevented, and you will AVOID the DANGER of TAKING COLD on going out after exercising. We have a book full of testimonials from the most famous athletes; to quote them is superfluous. Almost every one in training uses it. But don ' t expect some cheap sub- stitute for POND ' S EXTRACT to do what the genuine article will, for you will surely be disappointed.
