SWARTHMORE COLLEGE 1717 DDbD3 labi J:! Provident Life and Trust Co. OF PHILADELPHIA N. W. Cor. Fourth and Chestnut Sts. (Nos. 401-409) Insurance in Force, $128,740,464.00 Assets, $40,037, gSg. S EVIDENCE of the skillful and faithful management of this Company is found in its exceedinglj low expense rate, and the remarkably favorable rate of mortality. For the whole period of its existence, the death rate has been onl} ' .61 of the rate indicated bj the authoritative tables. The organization of the Company affords a strong guarantee of safe management for the future. There is the same need for care and intelligent discrimination in selecting a life insurance company that there is in select- ing investments for a trust fund. The question of the, first importance in either case is the question of absolute security. Y1 T should not defer becoming insured until they are married. OLllJ.lr i.VjL 3H The protection of life insurance will certainh ' be needed, - and the earlier the policj is commenced, the lower is the cost during the whole term. A young man who is safely insurable to-day may not be able to secure a policy hereafter on account of technical impairment of health, which, while perhaps not seriously affecting his general health, makes him ineligible for insurance. The money paid for insurance by a young man while he is .single is in many cases an investment which would not otherwise have been made. It is an opportunity of showing affection for his mother to make the policy payable to her until he is married, when it can be transferred to his wife.

WILLIAM HYDE APPLETON GENTLEMAN AND SCHOLAR This book is affectionately dedicated by tlie Class of 1 90 J Life of William Hyde Appleton. ROFESSOR WILLIAM HYDE APPLETON is a native of New England, and belongs to the well-known Boston famil) ' of that name. He is a graduate of Harvard, where he re- ceived the degrees of A. B., A. M., and LL. B. After having been tutor in Greek at Har- vard for two 3 ' ears he went abroad, and spent two years in study, chiefly at German Universities. He has often visited Europe since, on one occasion spending a year in Greece. Dr. Appleton came to Svi ' arthmore in 1872, as Professor of Greek and German. Later he relinquished the latter department, continuing in charge of the Greek, and taking up Anglo-Saxon and Early English. In 1889 he was appointed Acting President, during the absence of Dr. Magill in Eiu ope, having served for some years as Vice-President and having received the degree of Ph. D. from the College in the previous year. In 1890 he was elected to the presidency but resigned the position at the end of one year, preferring the work of his professorship. In 1893 he published Greek Poets ivL English erse, a volume which received a most favorable reception. He is a member of the American Philosophical Society ; the LTnion League of Philadelphia ; the Classical Club of Philadelphia ; the Harvard Club of New York; the Society of American Authors, etc.; also, of the College fraternity Chi Psi, and of the Harvard chapter of Phi Beta Kappa. 1899.

II Swarthmore College ITS ORIGIN AND SOME NOTES UPON ITS EARLY HISTORY. By Edward H. Magill, LL. D. CHAPTER VII. HE destruction and reconstruction of the College in its thirteenth year (1881-82), having been considered in the last chapter, we now proceed with the work as continued in the new building, after the return from its temporary quarters in Media, in the autumn of 1882. Fourteenth Year; 1882-83. — The regular time for the re-opening was on the 12th of Ninth month, but two weeks more were found necessary to complete the building and equip it for the reception of the students. The time was therefore fixed on the 25th, that being the anniversary of the dismissal of the students on the morning of the destruction of the fire. The number of students who entered the College classes this year was 82: Seniors, 18; Sophomores, 15, and Freshmen, 36. The mmiber in tlie Preparatory School was 192, distributed as follows: College Preparatory Class, 56; Class A, 63; Class B, 38; and Class C, 35. The only changes in the Faculty for this year were the appointment of Anna W. Frost Clapp, Matron, in place of Caroline S. Wood, resigned, and the resignation of George L. Maris, Professor of Theory and Practice of Teaching. Professot Wm. H. Appleton returned at this time, after a year ' s absence for study and travel abroad, and resumed the duties of his professorship. The average age of the new students admitted this year was one year greater than heretofore, and the hope of many was renewed that the time was gradually approaching when Swarth- 12 building by Juniors, 13 more would become a College only, without the addition of a Preparatory School, but time proved that this was to be a matter of slow development. It was about this time that the principle of admitting students without examination, on presenting certificates of qualification from the principals of certain schools, to be named bv vote of the Faculty, with the approval of the Committee on Instruction, was introduced. Five schools were admitted to the list to which this principle was extended. The new College building being now completed and equipped for its work, and the expenses of recon- struction and equipment, amounting to about $270,000, having been fully paid, the friends of the College were invited to the inauguration of the restored College building on Fifth-day evening. First month 18th, 1883. Free tickets on the railroad were sent to the friends of the College, a lunch was provided, and all of the rooms were opened for the inspection of visitors, and it was an occasion of great rejoicing that the disaster of the fire had been so promptly met by the energy of the Building Committee, supported Ijy lib- eral subscriptions, and all of the indebtedness incurred fully paid. It was during this year, for the first time, that a special room in the College was set apart to be called The Alumni Room, also for the use, if desired, of the Somerville Literary Society. The new Science Building was completed this year, and opened to students in the departments of Chemistry, Physics, and Civil and Mechanical Engineering, making our College compare favorably with other colleges in this country ni these departments, being equalled by few, and surpassed by none except some universities and special schools of science. A new schedule of prices of tuition was now adopted, making the charge $300 a year in Class C ; $350 in the other classes of the Preparatory School, and $450 in the College classes ; with a re- duction of $100 a year in all of these classes to children of members of our Religious Society. Fifteenth Year; 1883-84. — The year 1883-84 was opened with eleven members of the Faculty; Joseph W. Teets, Professor of Elocution, and Elizabeth C. M iller, Assistant Professor of Rhetoric and Composition, having been added to the Faculty of the previous year. During the year just passed the Board of Managers met with the loss of two of its most active and valuable members since the opening of the College, Samuel Willets and Rachel T. Jackson. It is well known that but for the liberal financial aid of Samuel Willets, seconded by the unwearying efforts of Edward Parrish, the first President, Swarthmore College would hardly have become a reality, at least for many years ; and from the first inception of the work no manager had been more earnest or more deeply interested in the establishment of a Friends ' college than Rachel T. Jackson. Through her long experience in educational 13 matters, in connection with her husband, John Jackson, a name so famihar and so dear to all Sharon students, her counsels were especially valuable, and had deservedly great influence with those associated with her in the work. The whole number of students this year reached 289, a greater number than was ever before in the College at any one time. But of this large number, 221 were in the Preparatory School, and but 88 in the College classes. Thus, the day seemed still distant when the College was to be well filled without the presence of a Preparatory School. Eight schools were reported this year as permitted to enter students without examination, on presenting certificates of qualification from their principals. The Library of the College had now reached, since its total destruction by fire two years before, about 5,700 volumes, the funds for which had been largely contributed by the Alumni Association ; and an earnest appeal was made to the Alumni at this time to contribute towards the maintenance of the Library, that the instructors and students might have access to the latest and best works at all times, and that the excellent working collection that was lost might soon be replaced. Nor did this appeal fall upon deaf or inattentive ears. An active working committee of the Alumni was soon in the field, and their labors being much en- couraged by a liberal conditional subscription of several thousand dollars by Clement M. Biddle, a permanent fund of $10,000 has since been secured, the interest of which is now devoted yearly to the increase of the books of which the Library most stands in need. The College society libraries were also reported at this time as numbering collectively nearly 2,000 volumes. Earnest efforts were made this year to restore our excellent working museum of Natural History, col- lected through all the history of the College thus far with so much care by Dr. Joseph Leidy, Some of us well remember that the day after the fire, when he started from our station up the asphaltum walk, having been called from his home in Philadelphia by the startling news of the morning, as he looked up at the blackened walls of the College, and the great empty water tank hanging upon the ruin, he said, mourn- fully, Ten years of my life gone ! Many specimens were sought out and purchased to supply this great loss, by funds furnished by Joseph and Anna T. Jeans, and contributions of material for the museum were liberally made by William S. Vaux, Professor F. A. Genth, C. S. Bennett, John Hartmann, Joseph Wilcox, and Edward Farnum. The report of the Managers was unusually full this year, taking up, in unusual detail, the various depart- ments of study, all of which are represented to have been in a very satisfactory condition. 14 We have now reached, in this brief outhne. which may, we trust, form some sHght basis for a fuller and more complete history of the College in later years, the close of the first fifteen years after the open- ing of the College in ' 69, and beginning as we did with a large Preparatory School, and only one small College class, the Freshmen, we feel that a great work was accomplished in those fifteen years by the earnest efforts of the early founders; but in the fifteen years that have followed, from ' 84 to ' 99 inclusive, the progress has been far greater, and the present condition and bright prospects of the College, with its strong Facultv of fifteen, its 208 College students, and no longer burdened with a Preparatory School, are great causes for gratitude to Him from whom all blessings flow ; and we can now confidently say that the wish publicly expressed at the opening of the College, by one of its early founders, that it might yet be found that they had ' builded better than they knew, has been abundantly realized.

Conuiiiitee. 34 History of 190 L PURPOSE, as Macaulay says, to set before you the achievements, the many victories, the few defeats of the Class of 1901, without respect to age, color, or previous condition of servitude. As the 1900 Halcyon so touchingly relates, we set foot within these College halls on the twenty-second of September, 1897, a large class of fifty-nine members. Mth charac- teristic energy we set to work to organize, and after some slight and easily suppressed at- tempts at interruption by the Sophomores, we took our place among Swarthmore classes. Without delay we began on a long series of victories on field, track, and platform. Nineteen hundred we defeated in foot-ball, hockey, base-ball, lacrosse, and the Gym. contest, besides win- ning the College championship in basket-ball. Our oratorical team won the President ' s Prize from the .Sophomores, and with the money placed the picture of Ex-President De Garmo in Parrish Hall. In Sophomore year we were rather disposed to rest on our laurels, but the entrance of a large and con- ceited lot of Freshmen reminded us that we had a duty to perform in educating them. The 1902 foot-ball team succeeded in staving oiT defeat for two 15-niinute halves, and on the track 1901 was defeated by a slight score, but a rout of the Freshmen in base-ball left honors evenly divided for The Pha-nix Cup. Pa lacrosse and basket-ball we again won the College championships, and with the President ' s Prize, secured this time from 1902, we placed the casts in the dining room and the Winged Victory in the parlor. Our history, apart from contests, has been eventful and creditable. In Freshman year our hats were lifted ' ' by envious Sophomores, but — do you notice we are wearing them yet? Nineteen hundred and two may remember their Class picture that was not taken, our toastmaster who was not kidnapped, our music that was not spoiled, their menus that were not as they were ordered. You are a great Class, 1902 ; go, paint your numerals on the moon. And now, in Junior year, we have devoted our energies to getting out our Halcyon, and to assisting our allies to nearly as brilliant successes as we ourselves have attained at Swarthmore. We can afford to be generous, 1903. There is a place ready for you beside us, — make yourselves worthy of it. Grajolvteus. 35 Junior Class ARTS. Emily M. Atkinson, McVeytown, Pa. Fanny B.

It is important that such a meeting be called, and that each and every one of you be punctilious in the observance of the requirement; that each one of you make it a point that my wishes be carried out to the letter, carried out to the letter! Much stress is being laid upon the observance of the more regular requirements of the institution, and, in fact, I shall take stringent measures to compel full attendance at all required gatherings. One of the most necessary factors in the life of the institution is that cheerful obedience be made to the regulation that requires each and every one to attend the religious exercises held in the Aleeting-house on the morning of each First-day. And should any one absent himself without being properly registered, I will require that he give me a full explanation of his non-attendance. Another matter I wish to lay before you is the necessity of obtaining permission from the Dean or my- self for absence from the institution. I shall read to you a minute from the regulations of the corporation: Freshmen and Sophomores under the age of twenty-one should permission President absence Vice-President properly registering - after work All others- registenng President ' s ofSce. I wish to urge upon 3-ou the necessity of carrying out this regulation, the importance of a punctil- ious observance of it. Another matter, before I dismiss you. It is customary for all to attend the regular morning collection. The Registrar will tick off the students as they enter the room. At this exercise all are expected to get 46 into what the Friends call the quiet; get into the quiet. It is necessary that no correspondence or studies be brought into the room to divert the minds of the students in the feiv moments of silence before taking up the more serious work of the day. Now, won ' t you make it a point to attend to these matters, so that we will not be compelled to be continually looking you up ? Oh, just a moment, — one further matter before I dismiss you: There shall be no use of musical instru- ments in the rooms during study hours, nor shall there be any boisterousness, jostling, howling, or stamp- ing in the halls and corridors. I do not care to leave my work in the office to look after that individual who persists in the petty annoyances that characterize the rowdy, the rozvdy element. After I had consulted with the Dean, the Faculty decided to lay these matters before you. In the future the Dean will meet with the young women of all classes on the evening of each Fifth-day. The young men will gather with the other young men at the President ' s meeting on the same night. I think that is all I have to say to you. P. Rex. 47 Class of 1903, OFFICERS. First Term.

HE Scientific Society was organized in March, 1895. and later received the name of The Joseph Leidy Scientific Society of Swarthmore College. Its object is to keep abreast with the discoveries in the scientific world. There are five sciences included in the work of the Association : Astronomy, Biology and Physiography, Chemistry, Engineering, and Physics. The programs of the meetings consist of a report from the instructors in each of the above % departments concerning the recent discoveries in the respective sciences. Papers are then read bv different members on topics of scientific interest, followed by an open discusssion by the Society. The interesting character of these programs is shown by the full attendance at the meet- ings, from both the College and the borough. The Executive Committee consists of a committee of three from each department, — one mstructor and two students. The residents of the borough of Swarthmore are eligible to membership, as well as the students and officers of the College.

HIS has been an important year in the history of this department at Swarthmore. In the fall. ,. 1,, all came with expectation and a strong desire to see our new Gymnasium, which they hati heard so much about. In this they were disappointed, as fate seemed against any move to hurry along the work. However, the walls were up, and we could conjecture as to the beautiful interior which was to follow. Then all eyes were turned to the foot-ball field, to ' ' draw a line on the new men. — and a sturdy set they were, something to gladden the eye of a coach. As the season progressed it was found that the - were of the right sort of material to develop into strong players. This to start with, and a great amount of thorough coaching by a star man. gave us one of the best, if not the strongest, teams that ever represented the College. Lafayette caught us earl}- while green, otherwise a season of clean scores would have resulted. In the last two (which were the important) games the team was not pushed to -win. On November i8th the spell which had been hanging over us was broken, and now certain things are not considered impossible. From the end of the foot-ball season it was a case of eternal wait until late in the winter ere we coilld get into our Gymnasium. During this time cross-country runs by day and moonlight kept down our weight, and. along with much skating, made life pleasant for an athlete. A word here about our hockey team, which was made up of strong pla3-ers and could have made a good record. Our principal rival thought it best not to play us a game, else we might have had something to boast of in this line. An attempt was also made to arrange a game with one of the crack Xew York teams, but could not be played on account of ■ arm weather. The late start of Gymnasium periods, and the unusual amount of good skating, limited the work of our new Gym. team, which, however, should make a good showing later on. Considerable attention has been 84 paid to special individual work which comes under the head of medical gymnastics. Each man is especially examined and his weak points made known to him, and special work given for the same. The only way that we can judge of our condition and strength is by testing it occasionally with correct methods. This is done for each student and advice given. Our lacrosse prospects are good for this year. Some thirty-five men are enjoying the game. An un- usually large schedule has been arranged. The prospects for our track team are not brilliant, as we have no stars here now. but a determined effort will be made to get out a large number of men. Last year the track team was allowed to drop below the usual standard, and it will require a great amount of work to bring it up again. In tennis we have a new man who will, no doubt, hold his end up with the best in the colleges, and this will give us an important standing. Here at Swarthmore we have almost too much of a representation for the size of the College, standing as we do in lacrosse and foot-ball on a par with institutions whose student body outnumbers us greatly, all the wav up to five thousand men : but our little ninety will be heard from. It is doubtful if any institution in the country of this number can show as good a standing. One of the disadvantages which we labor under is in having the same few choice men on all or nearly all the athletic teams. It also happens that some of these are also in the musical clubs. As these all require much practice to bring them to the state of per- fection which they have shown, it will be seen that they are not limited. The departure of one of the best trainers in the country left our College in a bad way. The next Director hardly had time to break himself in ; while at the present time still another new man is being broken in with a vain attempt to fill on a small scale the position held by Doc Shell. At this late date it would be an insult to the intelligent reader to try to convince him of the value of physical training; so, no attempt will be made, — a thing rather necessary a few years back. The pale, weak youth is not seen at Swarthmore. and if all indulge in plenty of out-door work it will preclude the possibility of such. W.

A Lulu von Romdohr. 1903- fRPIRY u.my Veritas Through the far Norwegian mountains, where the pines stood strong and dark, Where the tempest wrenched in fury at the granite ledges stark. Where the storm-clouds never yielded to the glory of the sun — Ere the flight of Time was reckoned, or the march of man begun — Came a maiden, straight and slender, in the majesty of youth. With a shining crown upon her brow, and on it blazoned Truth. And she gleamed along the ranges, and before her as she went Icy mist and darkness vanished, sullen, fearful, impotent. And she sang through all the valleys, and behind her as she came, Followed warmth and starry flowers, like a wave of running flame. And where ' er she passed, the boulders, scattered over moor and fen, Stirred like deer, and leapt and quivered, warmed and softened into men. This, the legend from the Northland, long ago in sagas sung. When the reign of force was potent, and the race of gods was young. Still the noble maiden sings along the meadows as of old, And she raises clods to heroes with her flashing crown of gold. Glad the sons of men come thronging to her shrine upon the hill. And they lay their souls before her to be moulded to her will. From the fire of her altar she shall bid them drink and go Where the eager passion of their faith shall set the world aglow. To the utmost shores of ocean they shall urge their fearless way; They shall dig earth ' s hidden treasures to lie open to the day; They shall chain the lightning closer for the thousand needs of man, And ' the blind of heart shall learn from them the Father ' s mighty plan. They shall sweep the harp of language with the skilled musician ' s art, And its melody shall comfort every broken human heart. They shall stay the tyrant ' s pi ' ogress, they shall bid his slaves go free, Haply shall they teach the nations how to die for liberty. And the Truth they loved shall soothe them when the storm of life is past, And their God and hers shall lead them gently homeward at the last. 122 Social Hour : A Sketch. He. — Good evening, Miss .. ' She. — Oh, good evening; is that you? He.- — - ' ' Er — 3 ' es. Do you — are you — that is, will you — may I give you the — may I have the pleasure of — to go into — I mean during Social Hour? Si-iE. — I don ' t understand. He. — I want to go into the parlor with you. She. — Oh, I see; certainly. (They wander into the parlor and appropriate a pet, talking meanwhile.) She. — I really am so ashamed of myself; I think sometimes I must be quite stupid, or hard of hearing, or— He (gallantly). — Oh, I ' m sure you are not deaf. She (weakly). — So good of you to say so. (A pause.) He. — Beautiful evening, isn ' t it? But so warm, don ' t you think? She. — Yes, very; though I thought before dinner it looked a little like rain. He. — Yes, or snow. It may be perfectly clear to- morrow, though, of course. She. — I suppose so. (A pause.) He. — By the way, were you at meeting yesterday? She. — Yes, I was there; were you? He. — Yes, but I didn ' t see you. She. — Nor I you; where do you sit? He. — I ' m not exactly sure, but it is somewhere near the front on the west side. I always know which seat it is by a tall Junior girl who sits in the same row in the middle. I always sit next the wall. She. — Did you say it was up the west aisle, and opposite a tall Junior. He.— Yes, exactly. She. — Why, that ' s the way I find my place. We must sit on the same bench! He. — And I never saw you! She. — Nor I you! Isn ' t it funny? He.— Isn ' t it? (They laugh consumedly. Then a pause.) She. — President Birdsall spoke well, didn ' t he? He.— Yes, and so did Dr. Magill. She. — Yes, and Mrs. Bond, too. I do so love to hear Mrs. Bond read; she has such a lovely voice, and what she says is so — so — . He. — Prosimetrical? She (vaguely).- — Yes, and — and — and nice. Don ' t vou think so? 123 He.— Yes. (Another pause.) He (starting suddenly). — Pardon me! She (also starting suddenly). — I beg your pardon! He. — I thought you spoke. She. — I asked you what you said. He. — I didn ' t say an3-thing. She. — Neither did I. He. — Oh, pardon me. She. — Certainly. (During the ensuing pause Dean Bond begins to gather her work, and our friends rise and prepare to tear themselves away.) He. — Why, how very short the evening has been, hasn ' t it? She. — Yes, hasn ' t it? I have enjoyed myself so much, Mr. . Really. I — I — it has been very short, really. He. — Yes, hasn ' t it? I never knew time to pass so quickly. I — I am very much obliged to you for — for — you are — }-ou have — Thank }-ou for — for — (Providentially the Dean approaches.) He. — Good-night. She. — Good-night. Appeal from Room H.

There was sadness in the college, The day that Emma Fell, For she ' d gained a popularity Without a parallel. So sorrow filled our bosoms. Our grief no tongue can tell. When rumors reached our College halls Announcing Emma Fell. The asphaltum wasn ' t slippery, And she bore herself right well: I cannot yet quite comprehend The way that Emma Fell. Skate, Late, Sign (?), Dine. Perhaps in the hereafter, When the heavenly anthems swell. To my own satisfaction I Shall know how Emma Fell. 124 It ' s a Way we have at Swar thmore, Revery of a 1900. Strikes, strikes, strikes.. In that cold gray college co-ed. On the paper my pen will stutter To keep them straight in my head. ' Tvvould be well for the soldier lad Had he no rival in play, Oh, well f.or the Michigan boy That things go right in his way. And the stately Edson goes on In a fair and comely manner ; AVhile tardy George does walk Where Helen waves her banner. And even Philosopher Joe, On fair Fanny doth hourly muse, And in Ed Worth ' s numerous cases, I here the count do lose. Strikes, strikes, strikes. From Freshman to Senior year, The variety show is hard to excel. But the price you pay is dear. Mrs. Bond ' s advice to the Freshman girls : Seek knowledge, but no ledge. Birds they say return in springtime. To nests they once have known, Back upon the wings of gladness. Back to trees whence they have flown. As I watched the springtime ' s coming. Watch its glories everywhere. Skies grow blue, and grass grows verdant. Whilst the birds flit through the air. Thoughtfully I sit reflecting. Low I murmur, When, ah! when, Will the Hazi ' kc return to greet us ? Will the Robbiiis come again? Two Lenten resolutions I have made, she gayly sang, ' The other ' s to quit jollying. The one ' s to swear off slang. Now, I stick to proper language, Even when T ' m with the gang. Indeed it is no rubber, I have sworn off using slang. 125 The Mi.rtor ' s Secrets, eaurs have come and gone and classes witrli them, but I stay always. Mj smile to the Freshmeia of to- day is as warm as it was to the Freshmen of a decade ago. I ncTcr wear OMt. ret I get more use than amT other one thing in CoEege. It is to me that the students come for the tnath, to see themselves as I see them. ' Some are hlissfullv satisfied, after looking in my firamk face, but there are others whom niv honestr hurts. Yet no one will pass me unheeded, for some unJcnowii attraction seems to draw them — I have never seen myselL A long look or a cov glance tells me that their thoughts are ever of me. Little Doctor Woods scans me before donning his overcoat for the city; and vhen Beshie or our musical George so often come late to breakfast. I am not neg- lected. In fact, I hold the secret of maev a tardiness. for people would rather meet me alone. Mv little cousins upstairs are too small for Eddie D., so he too comes to me.

Within her room she sits alone, And quietly she reflects, Contentment beams from out her eyes. She is one of the cr-execs. The young man in the alcove, (Though she ' s not whom he expects) Will greet her with a friendly smile. Since she ' s one of the r.r-execs. She thinks of student government.

At the doorway of the college, Of the college we call Swarthmore, In the country of the Quakers, Sat the ancient central matron, Reading text-books made of German, Text-books of the language Fran ais, Or at crochet mildly knitting. Anon quiet nappies taking. Incidentally answering door-calls. When the hasty boy from ' Yarnall ' s, From accommodating Yarnall ' s, Or the man from Wanamaker ' s, Or perchance an humble stranger. Wanted quickly an admittance. Answered she with stately leisure, When the bell rang five or six times. Rang through quiet hall and class-room, With reverberating clangor. Causing mirth to wicked students. And to teachers consternation. Giving rise to exclamation: ' Asleep again is Caroline. The fair co-ed. sat weeping ih the gloaming, And pouring dust and ashes on her head, AMiile Remembrance through the dismal past went roaming. And she mourned aloud, and this is what she said: This world is but a snare and a delusion, A phantom of the visionaries ' brain. And life is nought but turmoil and confusion And happiness is transitory, vain. For he who was my love has gone forever. Has left me to repentance and despair. And — woe is me! — ' twas through my mad endeavor To propagate a joke quite new and rare. We sat upon the parlor ' pet ' together. And chattered of the topics of the day: And while he talked of past and future weather, T sought for soinething dazzling to say. Oh, tell the meaning of the sigh you uttered, ' JNIy gentle love in accents wild implored: Then turned and fled, for soft and low I muttered, ' Twas but the groaning of the festive bored, ' 12S Nameful Verse, As curfew ' s Bell was slowly ringing O ' er the Waters soft and clear, And Dczvcy Eve ' s dense mantle, falling, Seemed to clasp and hold me near, The town Smith also had his small Booth; (And a Comly man was he, Whose word was Good as his Bond, the} ' ■His shrewdness Keen as could be.J said, I stood one day down by the seashore. Looking out upon the deep. And the Barr reaching out from the land, Caused the waves to moan and weep. But while 1 was thus standing, gazing, A skiff drew near to the strand; A Seaman old, plying Blades of oak. Approaching, essayed to land. Then I followed the old man townward. For he seemed to know the Way; I, with Lightfoot and heart skipped along Like a Lamb on summer ' s day. And he told me many good stories. Of Young men who were in Loz ' e, Of some who are shoveling Coak now, Of some in the Hall above. Now when he had come up to meet me, I saw that his Beard was white. And his step was slow and measured, But his eve was gleaming bright. But while m} ' old friend was speaking. Darkness had come like a pall; It settled down as a thick, black Fogg On village, Brozvnfield, and all. To the right of us lay the village. Which nestled Under-a.-hill; And the Taylors shop could just be seen. With the wheel JJ ' yis:hfs bv the mill. When I left the boatman, he gave me As a Mark of his goodwill A Thistle, plucked by his own Gate ' s side. At his cottage on the hill. 129 Why did you Come to Swarthmore ?

Snowed our loyal Alumni under, With Lafayette our sole defeat; Against Ursinus our poorest showing, Rubbed it in on Delaware. Then were Hopkins easy victims; Helpless found we old Dutch Rutgers; Merry carnival with Stevens; Out at Carlisle won a hard score. Rousing victory ' gainst poor Haverford, Ended boasts of F. and M. Wisdom from Science Hall. We must visualize the fundamental concepts. I do not believe in playing foot-ball with mathe- matics for intellectual strength. Ah, 3 ' ou will have to come to that by an intellectual process of assimilation. The dictionary is the graveyard of the language, hence, most university students are ghosts of departed spirits. One ' s art is the alphabet of the individual with which he inevitably spells out his inner character. An inspiration is only the act of clearly beholding vourself in an intellectual mirror. 131 Soliloquy (Implofingf Shakespeare ' s Forgiveness.) To sign or not to sign, that is the question Whether ' tis nobler in the mind to suffer The grins and gestures of outrageous colleagues, Or to take the pencil ' gainst a sea of troubles And by our signing face them? To sign, to eat Once more: and when we eat, to say we end The hunger and the thousand natural pangs The flesh is heir to, ' tis a consummation Devoutly to be wished. To sign, too much. Too mucn, perchance the ' steenth,ay there ' s the rub; For by that signature what threats maj ' come When our paternal learns how much we ' re late Must give us pause; there ' s the respect That makes the signatures of so much weight. For who would bear the whips and scorn of Prex, The pater ' s wrath, and Dean Bond ' s worried glance, The pangs of elTorts lost, and wasted haste. The certainty of trouble, and the spurns That tardy fellows of the unkind ones take. When one to all this might a quietus put. By just mere bluffing. Who would trouble take To stop and sign upon the tablet there. But that the dread of something like a squelch, The unremitting glances from whose frown The bluffer ne ' er recovers, weakens the will, And makes us rather face the ills from home Than fly to others that we know too well. Thus conscience does make signers of us all. 132 (U r y uAVi TJUTK L - -2 _; 2£- L- t__ New Publications. Gitiippe Bucke beg to announce that a few weeks, Doc Day ' s Work, by Grnbhard Stripling .

How lonely he must be now! And in the days gone by all young life used to centre around him. He attracted the bright and happy, and sympathized with and befriended the sad and lonely. The 3 ' ouths worked under his direction, and many a success they won, over which he rejoiced with them. Even the maidens found his company pleasant, and the happ) ' hours spent under his roof will be the fond remembrance of many an old Swarthmorean. But soon there came a change. The maidens ceased to care for his advice and teaching, and so left him. The faithful youths tarried longer within his walls after their sisters went. Still his companionship was pleasant to them and they followed his bidding with unwearied steps. But, ah! among these, too, there soon arose murmurs of dissatisfaction. The} ' thought newer methods than his would help them. And yet under his sway the Swarthmore youths won many a glorious victory. Long will they be remembered! But soon the inevitable came, and they, too, left him, for the old, alas! must needs give way to the voung. Bereft of his old companions, forgotten bv those whom he befriended, now all that are left to him are some old horses for whom he cares most tenderly. May they be more faithful! Poor old Gym! Poor old Gym! 138 The Faculty in Collection It was 8.30 A. M. The laundry bell slowly pealed out its warning to hurry to Collection or be late, and the Faculty gathered in great state on the rostrum in the hall above. Each member supposed that the other was religiously inclined, but in reality such was the case with few. In fact, if they hadn ' t been thinking as they were think- ing, the following might have been the thoughts of some of them: Dr. Stine (as he gazed over his spectacles toward the ceiling). — Ah, the cracks in the plaster would seem to indicate that insufficient time was expended in cal- culating the bending moments of those beams. These rule-of-thumb men are certainly exasperating. Prof. Hoadley. — I have always wanted to make a photograph of the earth, and now I believe my plans are perfected. Now I will take a balloon and — Miss Nowell. — Yes; I wish the mail came only once a week. It makes me late for this assembly nearly every morning. Two cents, please. Mr. Haviland. — There are too manv voung ladies down there looking up in this direction. It em- barrasses me, and I don ' t think I shall sit here any more. Dr. Cummings. — Co-education is a fine thing, no matter what some people may say, and I might just as well take advantage of it. Now, there ' s Miss — Dr. Appleton. — Twelve minutes more to sit still! It ' s hard for me, but I ' ll do my best. Dr. Day (musing with a nasal twang). — Oh, if the students would only see the advantage of my method of thinking, I could guarantee $100 a month to each of them, when they leave. Now when I was a student, advantages like these were scarce, etc. Prof. S. J. Cunningham. — Well, some people seem to have no manners at all. Now just look at John Smith reading as hard as he can, while the Presi- dent is talking. It does seem to me — Soon the Collection was over and the multitude dis- persed, the Faculty feeling especially refreshed for the fczi ' moments of needed quiet. 139 Scire Nefas.

(A long time after C)liver Herford.) I like the graceful, slim gi-raffe. His rub-ber-neck doth make me laugh ; It rises to a height ab-surd Just like the ea-gle, no-ble bird. He brows-es in the pep-per trees Without a pause to cough or sneeze, And stamps a-bout with all his legs To search for frag-ile tur-tle eggs. In short, he shows such an-i-ma-tion, As must com-pel our ap-pro-ba-tion; So when we view his an-tics gay Ay, there ' s the rub-ber-neck, we sa} ' . ' Be wise and drain the wine down to the dregs.

Cousins, perhaps, in some degree of remoteness Approximating the billions? Spoke of the latest mode of pseudopodia Box-pleated pellicles and cilia cut bias. While around them swam in gentle meditation Graceful Pterychthyses? Nay, it must be ; I feel a strange affinity, A violent attraction quite inexplicable, Moves me to cultivate our intimacy.

The Head {in a soft zvhispcr). Who is there? St. Mark and J. Enks together. My lady, we have come to satisfy our craving for conversation, at the risk of the apprehension of the constable. To see you we would risk all things and endure all tortures. The Head. Marry, my lords, cease your jolly- ing. I fear me, ' tis a false idea with hich you stuft this poor head. St. Mark.

Yis, said Hennes- sey m o o d i 1 }• , he ' ll be an A. P. A. if he keeps on wid his advanced nosshuns. The b ' 3 ' will come back shmokin ' th ' cigarette instid of th ' pipe of his fathers. Ye say thrue, said Dooley; th ' insidshous cigarette is th ' mark of th ' effete Pie-belt. D ' ye know what this Swatmore ' s like, Hennessey ? ' Tis the spot where th ' paceful Quakers inculh-- cate docthrines of non-resistance to mi.xed classes of byes and gurruls, half and half, aqually divided. They larn much but ate little. Young Dorgan wint there because they ' s great guns on foot-ball. Them as play foot-ball live high, Oi hear. They ate boiled eggs. where as how as th ' ithers ate th ' shells. ' Tis a great place, said Hennesse)-. Young Dorgan writ home on papur with a big Swatmore flag flutterin ' over th ' top most splendid. He says as how as two semiphores are larnin ' him how t ' get on the Freshmen crew by studhious ap- plication t ' land rowin ' wid golluf sticks for owers. He ' s a great b ' y, this same on golluf, anyhow, he was born wid th ' golluf color on his head. All ' s the same, said Hennessey, I ' d send no b ' y o ' mine there; it ' s little larnin ' the} ' do with all they gurruls around, for they ' ll lead a man to destr-r- ruction, young or old, and half way back, them same gurruls. I dunno, I dunno, ,said Mr. Dooley, I think, too, Dorgan was wrong in sendin ' his b ' y so far away. Altho ' I voted for Carter Harrison, I belie es in pathrunising home indushtries. Whin yung Dorgan wint in t ' make his mark — his registrashun he calls it ( ' tis no politics, Hennessey) — the head boss cleared his throat, and he says, says he : ' How is thee ? ' he says. Young D. says : ' What ? ' ' How is thee ? ' says the boss, he says. ' How is the whut ? ' saj ' s D. ' What is thee name ? ' the boss says, says he. ' The 14S name of what ? ' says D. Th ' boss shoved a paper in his face and says, ' Sign this, young man. ' Dorgan made his mark, and tuk his new pipe out of one pocket and a pack of cards out of th ' other. ' Tek them, ' he says, ' they ' s yours, ' he says ; ' the rest is in me thrunk, ' he says, droppin ' a tear. But three weeks he ' s been there now, and they are takin ' of Itim and liis mouth organ into th ' Col- lege orchestry. He ' s a grand b ' y — that young Dorgan; none better in th ' land, said Mr. Dooley. He ' s comin ' back on speakin ' terms wid all the ' ologies ' and ' ophics, ' and if he don ' t tek to partin ' his hair ' in th ' middle, he ' ll lead the ward and die Chief of Police in Chicago.

Dey is times in life when College Makes you pine fo ' home, sweet home. When, yo ' mornin ' work all oveh, Down through the hall you roam ; When yo ' hungeh stahts a-gnawin ' , An ' you feel that achin ' void, An ' de bell jes ' den a-ringin ' Makes you think o ' things enjoyed. Den you dream ob all de dainties, Dat you ' s wishin ' fo ' a lot, An ' de open do ' discloses Dat de Swarthmore hash am hot. No, gentle reader, this is not the work of mice ; it onl} ' represents ten minutes ' co-education in the Reading Room. 151 November Dawn — A Sonnet. When o ' er the hill -top, clad with sombre pines, Is dawning roseate the laggard day, And to their feeding-grounds along the bay The crows fly down the east in dusk ' lines — When in some thicket dim of leafless vines The wren doth trill his cheery roundelay, And rhythmic ax-blows echo faint away, Where, mist enwrapped, the upland forest shines ; Then from the nestling farmsteads, far and near, Thin, vaporous, and spirit-like, the smoke Curls upward into heaven ' s rosy dome ; Then fill the air all hearth-side perfumes dear — Ascending prayers that silenth- invoke The sky ' s beneficence upon the home. She was a winsome little maid. And conquered hearts galore ; But one fine daj- they left, and then She had to winsome more.

Echo answers Why? Was it love of honest labor That made the Seniors bold Spend the day in writing programs ? The reason they ' ve not told — But noucrhtv-three knows whv. 152 1900 — At Loss of Their Reception Programmes. Soph ' mores, we did not think to shed a tear In all our miseries ; but this has forc ' d us, Out of its irreverence, to show our anger. Let ' s calm our passion, and thus far hear us, Soph ' - mores : And — when we are forgotten, as we shall be, And rest in dull oblivion, where no mention Of us more may be heard of — say, we taught you ; Say, Seniors, who once tried the ways of athletes And even made some bold attempts at dignity, Sought you a way, out of their wreck, to rise in ; We hope a sure one, though your allies missed it. Mark but our loss and that which caused it. Soph ' mores, we charge you, curb your curiosity; By that sin our programmes went, just as did yours Through carelessness and through too much security, Look yourselves last; those Freshmen, too, have eyes. And cowardice is not our rivals ' sin. In your right hands carry wary caution To overcome their wiles ; be watchful and have care. Let all the ends you aim at be dignity ' s. Your own, and ours; then if you fall, oh, Soph ' mores J You fall as we did : Serve your class And teach us so to do. There, take an inventory of all is ours, To the last quality; ' tis yours ; our pride, And our own self-conceit is all We dare now call our own. Oh, Soph ' mores, Soph ' - mores ! Had we but served our class with half the zeal We served ourselves, it would not in its age Have been left helpless to those Freshmen there! She Meant the Room.
