RECORD COMMITTEE PENNSYLVANIA COLLEGE OF DENTAL SURGERY College History HE history of the Pennsylvania College of Dental Surgery extends over a half century, dating from the early days when the fever of excitement over the discoveries in California stirred men in every walk of life, and led many to forsake business and all else to join in the mad rush for fortune. After many unsuccessful efforts by a number of the leading men in the medical and dental profession, a charter was obtained, and the Philadelphia College of Dental Surgery was organized, in 1850. The first session was opened in the fall of 1852. occupying rooms in the third, fourth and fifth stories of the building now occupied by Geo. D. Feidt. 528 Arch Street, but at that time owned and occupied by the firm of Jones, White McCurdy, now the S. S. White Dental Manufacturing Company, of Twelfth and Chestnut Streets. During the next four years times were prosperous, and in all sixty-three students were graduated. At this time, however, owing to the unprecedented action of the Board of Corporators in conferring honorary degrees without the recommendation or even consent of Faculty, the latter resigned, and as an active educational institution the college ceased to exist. On April 3, 1856. the charter of the present Pennsylvania College of Dental Surgery was obtained by the retiring Faculty, with the Hon. Henry C. Carey as president. At the first meeting of the Board of Corporators, held April 6, 1856, a new Faculty was elected, consisting of: Elisha Townsend. M. D., D. D. S., Professor of Operative Dental Surgery and Special Dental Pathology; Robert Authur, M. D., D. D. S., Professor of Principles and Practice of Dental Surgery; I. F. B. Flagg, M. D., D. D. S., Professor of Anatomy and Physiology; Eli Parry. M. D.. D. D. S., Professor of Chemistry, Materia Medica and Special Therapeutics; Thomas L. Buckingham, M. D., D. D. S., Professor of Mechanical Dentistry. With this organization the newlv-founded college remained in the same building previously occupied by its predecessor, until 1863, when another reorganization of the Faculty took place and the following men were elected to fill the vacancies: J. H. McQuillen, M. D., Professor of Anatomy and Physiology; J. L. Susserott, D. D. S.. Professor of Dental Surgery and Therapeutics; C. N. Pierce. D. D. S., Professor of Dental Physiology and Operative Dentistry; E. Wildman. D. D. S., Professor of Mechanical Dentistry. The rapid growth of the institution made it imperative that more room and better accommodations be provided and, therefore, the college was moved to a new location on the southeast comer of Tenth and Arch Streets, of which building it occupied the second, third and fourth floors, until the close of the session of 1877-78. At the close of this session another reorganization of the Faculty occurred, and the new men elected to the various chairs were: J. Ewing Mears, A. M., M. D., Professor of Anatomy and Surgery: Wilbur F. Litch, M. D., D. D. S., Professor of Prosthetic Dentistry and Therapeutics; Henry C. Chapman, M. D., Professor of Physiology and General Pathology. Dr. Buckingham and Dr. Pierce were retained in their former positions. But more room again became a necessity, and a much larger building at the northwest comer of Twelfth and Filbert Streets was secured, making available in the second, third, fourth and fifth stories of this building more than double the former space for lecture rooms, operating rooms and laboratories. After the session of 1883-84 a slight change in the Faculty was made, Henry LcfTmann. M. D.. D. D. S.. succeeding Dr. Buckingham as Professor of Chemistry and Metallurgy, and Albert P. Brubaker. M. D., D. I). S., taking the chair of Physiology and General Pathology. Owing to the rapid evolution of dental science, still higher educational standards were required and greater facilities demanded. These requirements, together with radical changes in the length of the college term, made it again obligatory upon the Faculty to seek for better accommodations, and as the outcome the present site on the northeast comer of Eleventh and Clinton Streets was purchased, and a new and commodious college building was erected thereon, being first occupied at the close of the session of 1892-93. Early in 1898 the chairs of Dental Anatomy. Dental Histology and Prosthetic Technics, and that of Clinical Dentistry and Oral Pathology were established, I. Norman Broomell, D. D. S.. and Geo. W. Warren, D. D. S., being elected to the respective chairs. Dr. J. Ewing Mears retired from the chair of Anatomy and Surgery at the close of the session of 1899, and the professorship was divided, the chairs of Anatomy and Surgical Pathology and Oral Surgery being created. Percival E. Loder, M. D., D. D. S., was elected to the former, and W. J. Roe, M. D., D. D. S., to the latter. At the close of the session of 1900, Dr, Henry LefTmann. long occupying the chair of Chemistry and Metallurgy, retired, and J. Bird Moyer, B. S.. Ph. D., was elected to fill the vacancy. From the spring of 1878 to the present time the career of the college has been one of continued prosperity, the number of students increasing steadily, and each year recording some important extension of the college curriculum. Previous to 1878 the annual list of matriculates had not exceeded seventy in number; this year will see graduated from the college a class of over one hundred. The years which have passed in the present location have been of such advantage to the college that the wisdom of the Faculty in making the change has been shown beyond doubt, and the world-wide fame of the institution and her corps of teachers has placed her in the first ranks as an educational institution. The list of alumni who have passed out of her halls is larger than that of any other dental college in the world, numbering over 2,700, and comprising many of the leading men in the profession. Of her alumni one hundred and twelve have been women. Although third in order of organization in this country, her singleness of purpose in dental education lias stamped her as the leading institution, and one whose consistent and unsullied record can be regarded with just pride by her graduates. Thus the college lias grown. Breathing her first breath amid troublous scenes, she has expanded and developed as each new requirement became apparent. From the first she has not forgotten her motto, “A dental education along ethical lines;” and to-day her sons arise from every clime to call her blessed. During the next session (1905-1906) she will have the honor of celebrating her golden jubilee, the fiftieth anniversary of her incorporation, at which time appropriate exercises will call to mind the epochs of her existence, and the great strides made in the dental profession, from the days of infancy to this age of a broad and far-reaching science. “These grounds, these halls, we know so well, our home. Part of the light that shows us all we see; Part of our lives and we a part of hers; A name? A hope? I know not; yet we love.” BOARD OF I. Minis Hays, M. D........ Joseph Pettit, M. D., D. D. S.

Gets his engine, starts to drill, Tills the tooth, presents this bill: 41Tor the pleasure and the bliss Of filling tooth, due me, one kiss.” Maiden pays and gets receipt.

A Reverie Swiftly sped the midnight wind, Softly fell the winter snow; Crystal like it shone without, Cheerless was the street below. Standing by my window ledge Glancing on the scene below, Sadness seems to fill my soul— Why it does I do not know. On my desk the lamp burns low; Light and shadows are at play Moving swiftly to and fro On the walls in weird display. Closing down the shade I turn From this sad and cheerless view To my lonely fireside --Lonely: Yes, it’s lonely too. Watching how the embers glow Thinking sadly, thinking when Dear old “ Naughty Five” disbands Each man going his way then. Nearer comes the time to part, Part we must and go our way; Sad does seem this parting time Sad indeed this parting day. Some will go toward the east, Some will go toward the west; May we sometime meet again Classmate, friend, before we rest. May we meet in Autumntide Ere we cross the darkened line Singing once more as of yore College songs of Auld Lang Syne. M. C. II., 05. J. BIRD MOYER, B.S., Ph.D. Honorary President.

JUAN J. ANGULO, Puntarenas. Costa Rica. Class artist, member of Xi Psi Phi Fraternity, and C. N. Peirce Society. “ For thy sake, 0 Tobacco, I would do anything but die. Angulo and his cigarette are inseparable. If you see one, the other is sure to be forthcoming in a short time. Has a gentlemanly manner which makes friends for him everywhere. CHARLES F. ASSENHEIMER, Philadelphia, Pa. Vice-president of C. N. Peirce Society, and member of Xi Psi Phi Fraternity. “ Long and lean, lank and thin, .4s one of Satan’s cherubim. The only trouble is that Charlie's disposition would not entitle him to such a degree. St. Peter could make better use of him, so he started to go up higher,” and at latest reports is still growing. May reach heaven if he don’t get side-tracked. AUGUSTO AUGUSTO, Colliano, Italy. Member of C. N. Peirce Society. “ Methought I heard a voice cry 'Sleep no more!' M Received a teacher’s diploma in Italy at the age of nineteen. Is the class druggist, and must be kept busy and feel very tired, judging from the little naps which he occasionally takes during lectures. FRANCIS F. BANNAN, Spencerville, Qnt., Canada. Member of Psi Omega Fraternity, Wilbur F. hitch Society, and Gridiron Club. “ Whose chin is but enriched With one appearing hair. What he lacks on the mental prominence is made up by the great mass of raven locks which he always keeps combed just so. JOSEF BAUER, Darmstadt, Germany. Member of C. N. Peirce Society. “ Hail, reverend Hat, sublime 'mid all The minor felts that round thee grovel.” Bauer declares he was sober the night he turned out to do Chestnut Street, his head adorned with only the crown and a microscopic section of the brim of what was once a hat. But it was the night after Senior elections, so we won’t argue the matter. WILLIAM C. T. BAUERLE, Philadelphia, Pa. President of the Class, Senior year. Charter Member and Vice-Grand of Xi Psi Phi Fraternity, member of Art and Science Club, Wilbur F. Pitch Society, and Gridiron Club. “ It seemed, when Xattire him began, She meant to show all that might be a man.” Bauerle is a big gun in his ward in the city, but is by no means to be classed with the ordinary Philadelphia politicians. Has legions of friends, and unless all signs fail, he will soon be trying to prove the old theory that two can live as cheaply as one. HENRY HOLLAND BELL, St. John, N. B., Canada. Member of Psi Omega Fraternity, Art, and Science Club, Wilbur F. Litch Society, and Gridiron Club. “ With here ami there a holly wreath. Good-natured as the day is long, and an all-around good fellow, Bell is a first-class specimen of what they raise beyond the forty-second parallel of latitude. FRANK J. BELL, Easton, Pa. Member of C. N. Peirce, Society and Gridiron Club. “Umottling he was drawn away.” Frank started a year ahead of most of us. but decided to wait till our class came along. Had several slats knocked loose in a class scrap in our Freshman year and that put him out of business. Wears a lean and hungry look, due either to late hours with Matchan, Reed Co., or to boarding-house grub. LOUIS N. BERNSTEIN, New York City. Member of Executive Committee. “ A little man. but yet I trow, That little man can raise � roic He has never shown much tendency to raise a row, but is so short in stature that he will surely have to build a gallery around his chair when he begins to practice, in order to reach his patients. GEORGE M. BETTS, Schenectady, N. Y. Member of Psi Omega. Wilbur F. Liteh Society, Gridiron Club, and Orchestra, Vice-President Freshman year. “ All the great men are dying. In fact, I do not feel iveil myself. Betts is going to locate somewhere near his native town, and hopes to do great things when he gets at the good people of that region. One of the class grinds and always gets good marks. SOLOMON BLUMBERG, Philadelphia, Pa. Member of C. N. Peirce Society, and Executive (Committee. “ Small herbs have grace, Great weeds do grow apace.” Now, dear reader of these famous lines, do not think that Sol belongs to the latter class simply because his anatomy is extended heavenward. He and Bernstein are a team and what one lacks the other must make up. ALBERT EDWARD BROWN, London, England. Member of Wilbur F. Litch Society. “ God Save the King” Brown is a friend of ‘‘Hen” Faber, and has been appointed a committee of one to see that Hen does not again put fifteen teeth on a lower plate and then hunt for the missing one from the upper. ALEXANDER L. CANTERO, Trinidad, Cuba. “ hi faith I zeill. Let me pursue this face.” Spent a greater part of his time in pursuing faces, and invariably had high steppers for patients. Is near-sighted except during examinations, when his sight suddenly improves. JACOB L. CHALFIN, Philadelphia, Pa. Member of Record Committee. “Mclhinks I would not graze too fast.” All our efforts to bring Chalfin to the front as a promising specimen of robust manhood have been unavailing, and to-day he is the tiniest of the bunch. Hut it is the old story of good goods and small packages. Dehn says if his physique were in proportion to his energy he would be a giant. JOHN PAUL CHAMBERLAIN, Philadelphia, Pa. Member of Xi Psi Phi fraternity. “ Knock, knock, thou chronic knocker, knock, Ten thousand wrongs await thy hammer's shock.” Is “Sister” to the class. Has a marked propensity for finding fault. Would like to run things to suit himself; but then well, heaven pity the rest of us. JOHN J. CLARK, Philadelphia. Pa. Member of C. X. Peirce Society, and Gridiron Club. “ What cracker is this same that deafs our ears With this abundance of superfluous breath ?” Clark is the funny man of the class, and his continuous flow of jokes and witty sayings serve to keep his neighbors awake during lectures. The profs ought to add ten per cent, to his marks for his services. WILLIAM H. TRUEMAN COLLINS, Philadelphia, Pa. Member of Wilbur F. Litch Society. “ Who is this pretty prattling child?” He should be a shining star in the profession, and we do verily hope that he will but add another to the galaxy of great lights clustering about the name of Trueman. The only trouble is that he is a Philadelphian. JOHN FREEMAN COULTES, Blue vale. Ont.. Canada. Assistant to Dr. Roe. member of Psi Omega. “ He's a jolly good [cllow.” Stepped into the place vacated by his elder brother as assistant in oral surgery, and occupied his time during lectures on that interesting subject by throwing paper wads to awaken the sleepers and amuse the denizens of the front row. HARRIS MANSON CRANDALL, Worcester, Mass. Junior Master of Psi Omega, member of Wilbur F. Litch Society, and President of Gridiron Club. “ Xever trouble trouble Till trouble troubles you. An earnest advocate of “The Simple Life. Claims that two hours a day are enough for any man to work, and when he has reached that limit religiously shuts up shop and goes for a game of cahds.M MICHAEL DE VECCHIS, Colliano, Italy. Member of Xi Psi Phi fraternity, C. N. Peirce Society, and Record Committee. Of manners gentle. Of affections mild.” We can add nothing that will better describe his character. CHARLES D. DES BRISAY, Lunenburg, Nova Scotia. Can. “ I Ye know that with the ladies He was always raising Hades.” Never had much to say. but managed to get good lookers for patients in the clinics, and seemed to carry out the above quotation. HENRY CARL DEHN, New York City. Member of C. N. Peirce Society, and Record Committee. “ I never saw a sweeter maid. More quaint, more pleasing, Xor more commendable.” Dehn says he can tell that at a Glantz. ABE G. DINENBERG, Philadelphia, Pa. Member of P. C. D. S. Orchestra. “ Front wandering minstrels, I have learned the art of song. Let me now repay the lessons I taught so well and long. Takes good care of the inner man, and is an expert at obtunding the gnawings of a hypersensitive stomach. Nickname- Schnitzek. JOHN DOUGLASS DORSEY, Philadelphia. Pa. And though he does but little, He does that little well. Incidentally held a position as an assistant postmaster while attending college. May yet be Postmaster-General. Always thorough in his work. ROY EARLEY, Philadelphia, Pa. Member of Psi Omega fraternity. “Cheer up. cherries are ripe.” Earley's expression is one of the sad and dreamy kind, such as the poets talk about. But it wont be long, Roy, till you can go to her. LAURA ERNESTINE EDEL, Asch, Austria. Member of Woman’s Dental Society. Hast thou not every gentle grace We love in woman's mind and face?” Has been one of us from the start, but numerous trips to New York and sundry rumors serve to confirm our suspicion that she has decided that it is not good for man to be alone and even that her name is no longer Edel. LEON G. EGGLESTON, Antwerp, New York. Member of Xi Psi Phi fraternity, Wilbur F. Litch Society, and Art and Science Club. “ Here I swear Young Love can go For all I care To Jericho. College work first was his motto, and in his cloistered cell did he study and cram till he was an authority on all subjects but the one mentioned above. JUSTUS H. EIGENRAUCH, Jersey City, N. J. Member of Psi Omega fraternity, Wilbur F. Litch Society, and Gridiron Club. Tell me, pretty maiden, are there any more at home like you ?” This is one about whom much might be said, but to say it all would require this entire volume; so we will only call attention to the stalwart shoulders, the angelic smile, and just above it the shadow of a coming event. HENRY H. N. FABER, Jersey City. N. J. “ Bui fixed for everlasting years. Unmoved amid the wreck of spheres.” “ Hen ” is one of the queerest mortals that ever struck the place. Everybody found him so interesting and he seemed to like everybody so well that he is almost a permanent fixture. IRA 0. FELMLEE, Lack, Pa. Member of Psi Omega fraternity, and C. N. Peirce Society. “ There lies a deal of deviltry Beneath his mild exterior. You don't need to know him more than about five minutes to realize that. Travels with Woodford. SOLOMON FERDINAND, New York City. “ in my long(f) stay I have offended, I ask your pardon. Entered at beginning of Senior year from New York College. ISRAEL FISCHER, Philadelphia, Pa. “ Too fresh to keep, too green to eat—throw it away. Though he has been one of the gang all through the course, his Freshman traits still cling to him. Will ornament the dental chair according to mamma's wishes. SAMUEL A. FISHMAN, Newark, N. J. Member of C. N. Peirce Society. “ Nature has framed strange fellows in her time” And here is one of her masterpieces in foolishness. Belongs to the hot-air gang.. THOMAS A. FITZGERALD, Worcester, Mass. Member of Psi Omega fraternity, Gridiron Club, and President of Wilbur F. Litch Society. “ Wad some power th' gif tie gic its, To sec oursels as ithers see us” We may add, especially when taking nitrous oxide for the benefit of the class. Originates from the same town as Josh Crandall and is his shadow. MILTON LAWRENCE FREEMAN, Philadelphia, Pa. “ Jove knows I love, but who?” Freeman was roped in at the same time as the rest of us, and despite several (to his mind) serious love affairs, is still with us. We dare not roast him, for he served notice on us to that effect. If we did he probably would get mad and bust up the college, and then all of the profs would be out of a job. Thinks lectures a bore, and taking notes a drain on his intellectual ability ?). FREDERIC CHARLES FREEMANTEL, London, England. “ He hath but a little beard, but time will send more if the man be thankful That little beard disappeared one day as if by magic. Someone said F. C. took a hint. 1 las a splendid tenor voice and knows how to use it. RICHARD FREIDES, Philadelphia, Pa. “ Talkest thou of nothing but the ladies? From all observations we can safely say no. HARRY AUGUST GANGUILLET, Neuchatel, Switzerland. Graduate from Switzerland. Member of C. N.

Graduate from Russia. “ Is not thy mind a gentle mindf Arrived in the last year to complete our Three Graces. A gold worker par-excellence. ROBERT COLIN GOOD, Motherwell, Ont., Canada. “ What's in a name ?” Xot much sometimes, but here the man is everything the name implies. President ex-officio of the Canuck Club. ALBERT AARON GOLDMAN, Pine Hill, New York. Member of C. N. Peirce Society. “ Then he will talk— Good gods, how he will talk. Anywhere and anytime Goldman's melodious mezzo-soprano may be heard. It is rumored that he has taken Clark into partnership to make hot air to heat Philadelphia street cars. ALEXANDER ROWAN HAMILTON, Jersey City, N. J. Class Secretary, Member of Xi Psi Phi fraternity, and Wilbur F. Litch Society. “ thought this heart enkindled lay On Cupid's burning shrine. That thought is on a fair way to become a reality, for frequently his smile lights up the whole prosthetic lab., and the answer to questions as to what is doing, “Oh, a letter, helps to confirm our suspicions. ISRAEL J. HALPERN, Vienna. Austria. “ His countenance does not betray much evil.” Hails from Vienna. Easily irritated, and cannot speak of any member of the faculty without closing his eyes in a most pathetic manner. Nicknamed, “Johan;” formerly a tanner. ISIDOR HAMBURG, Philadelphia. Pa. “ am not merry, but I do beguile the thing 1 am by seeming otherwise ” It takes a long time to become acquainted with Hamburg, but when you do he is all right. w. JOSEPH HARVEY, Mount Carmel, Pa. Member of Psi Omega fraternity, and Wilbur F. Litch Society. “ A goodly man with an eye so merry.” He is one of the droll comical sort, and made friends with everybody. MAX HERCHENRODER, Hamburg, Germany. Member of Xi Psi Phi fraternity, C. X. Peirce Society, and Record Committee. “ Come, have a stein or two” Though Max can put away about as much lager as anybody, he is none the less a friend to everybody and a careful student. Handles the forceps as if he had been in practice ten years. MICHAEL C. HOADE, Philadelphia, Pa. Grand-Master of Xi Psi Phi fraternity. Member of C. N. Peirce Society. “ And I come to seek that name in England. Familiarly known as “Sam.” Has a peculiar interest in England, English mails and, in fact, anything English Rumor says some minister will have a job shortly after graduation. “Sam” is a hard student and is everlastingly at his books. WILLIAM C. HOFMANN, Vineland, N. J. Corresponding Secretary of Xi Psi Phi fraternity and of C. N. Peirce Society. Vice-president of Class Junior year. “ Thus you see lull at a brilliant alliance Oj thoughts is assembled in you. We “will take a chance on it” that no man in the class does harder conscientious work than Bill Hofmann. Is always up in his work and breaks away from it only at such important times as class elections. JOHN HOWARD HOLDEN, Philadelphia, Pa. Member of C. N. Peirce Society. “A riddle, he, whom the solver of the Sphinx's would die guessing. Where he originated and whither he is bound only he and Suzuki know. Is of a species all his own, and is indeed the class riddle. GEORGE BANCROFF IRVINE, Philadelphia, Pa. Assistant to Dr. Coder, Vice-President of ('lass Senior year, member of Xi Psi Phi fraternity.

IN a certain railroad collision, one of the victims lay for a long time on his back across the ties. Finally two men picked him up, carried him to the station, and placed him upon the iloor. “ He’ll be easier here.” they said, ''till the Doctor comes.” The Doctor came a little later. “This poor chap is done for, I am afraid, he said, glancing at the prostrate victim. Then he knelt down, lifted one of the man’s closed eyelids, and peered into a dull, blank, unseeing, lifeless eye. Yes, he’s dead all right. Take him away, said the Doctor. But the pale lips of the injured man moved slightly, and a thin, feeble voice murmured: That was my glass eye, you fool.” I most sincerely trust that my diagnosis of the history of the class will not be through a glass eye. In the autumn of the year Nineteen Hundred and Two. all was bustle and lite at old Penn Dental. The class of Nineteen Hundred and Five had arrived, ready to get acquainted with Dentistry; our minds were filled with horrible tales ot what those upper classmen” would do to us. Some had papa along to see his boy launched on his way to a professional career. We all called upon Father Litch in his office. He inquired into our right to invade the sacred precincts of the college, and our educational qualifications which should give us the right to study the profession. Then he turned us over to Dr. Warren, who holds the purse strings for the College. He gently told us that the institution needed a little money and that a donation of five dollars matriculation fee would be appreciated. After our matriculation with Dr. Litch, and our enrollment with Dr. Warren. we wandered around the College to get our bearings on the place so that we would not get lost. In the afternoon of the Fourth of October, Nineteen Hundred and Two, the College was formally opened by an able address by Dr. William Truman, a member of the first class graduated from Penn Dental. Lectures began the next day. and what a time we had finding our bearings amid that awful mess of lectures and sub-sections! Anatomy was our greatest trial, and as for Physiology, well, we never would be able to comprehend it all. Someone said we had to go to the “upper room” for twenty nights to study “osteology, That name gave us the horrors. What was it, anyway? Imagine a lot of green Freshmen, toiling up the winding stairs to try the mysteries of that abode of evil, the dissecting room. That peculiar, clinging, and indescribable odor, and the strange sights were too much for some of the fellows, and they beat a hasty retreat to terra firm a. so pale and frightened that 'tis said the staid residents of Clinton Street imagined a lot of ghosts were loose. The few who were brave enough to stick through it all. had a memorable night. According to Sandt, the incorruptible roommate of Metschan, Metsch had the “collywobbles” all night, whatever that is. and jumped up in his bed in the middle of the night and yelled to him that two of those “skellingtons ” were after him. We say “Sandt. the incorruptible. Well, in those early days, he was not so likely to get up a story on “ Lengthy, so we had to accept that one as true. Metschan had the Collywobbles Our terrors of the first night wore away and we began to settle down to the regular routine. We found that the things that seemed so awful at first really were not so after all. Dr. Brubaker put Physiology before us in such a way that we could not help learning it. Anatomy grew upon us until we really did know the difference between the heart and the liver. But that subject called Chemistry was more than we had bargained for. We had to attend lectures and pretend we understood when Dr. Moyer covered the entire blackboard with hieroglyphics; and then, too, we made our first real entrance into work in the chemical lab. There we found Shepler was the high mucky-muck, because he was fortunate enough to have passed the stuff before he came. Our artistic abilities were tested in our efforts to show Dr. Kretschman how to carve teeth from a block of soap. And so began our career in old Penn. We were yet but individuals and had no class organization to act if those upper classmen” should get after us. It happened that upon going to the dissecting room one night I chanced upon a number of my classmates, and in the dissecting room, surrounded by skeletons and skulls, the first organization of the Class of Nineteen Hundred and Five was effected. Those who were selected to do honor as the first political body were: Temporary President . V. A. Rightmire Temporary Secretary . A. B. Mason Temporary Treasurer . . H. H. Bell Executive Committee V. A. Rightmire, Chairman F. Sandt W. Kutz A. J. McKnight Constitution Committee David H. Noll, Chairman W. J. Harvey F. Suzuki F. V. Serio E. T. Williams M. C. Hoade Wm. C. T. Bauerle The resignation of the Chairman of the Constitutional Committee was accepted, and Mr. Bauerle was appointed to fill the vacancy. At a following meeting, the temporary officers were made permanent. Everything was seemingly quiet about College for several days. Then a Junior accosted a Freshman and. in his smoothest tone, said: “ ‘Doc.’ we are trying to fit up the reading-room with some new literature; can't you help us out?” Of course he could, and produced the necessary fifteen cents, our first contribution to college life. The next day behold! The walls, the ceilings of the College, telegraph poles, and houses for blocks around, were covered with the reading-room literature. Cowards! They had taken advantage of our innocence, and had used our money to flood the College and streets with iron-bound rules—and woe unto us if we transgressed. The law that caused all the trouble in our Freshman year was- “No sock or tie of a red hue shall be worn by a measly Freshman. The morning the posters were displayed, the Juniors, like wild beasts of the forest, lay in wait for the arrival of their prey. Soon there was a stir. In the distance could be seen the form of a human being coming up Clinton Street with all the dignity of a judge, and with just a speck of red near his neck. With all the confidence that innocence bestows, he stepped to the doorway. A growl—a stir—and he was pounced upon. The forbidden red was removed, but Hoade, for it was he, had his “ Irish up, and put up a gallant fight, tearing the hats and clothing of his enemies before the objectionable red was removed. Yet again they waited. The taste of blood had made them furious. Again a disturber of the peace is sighted. And Susan, poor boy, rushed to his fate. His shoes were removed, then his socks; and with a yell, they went into an Indian war dance. Each one had a piece of the sock in the lapel of his coat. A good Samaritan took Susan in hand, and loaned him a new pair of green socks, which, by the way, he never returned. Then came the long-dreamed-of, ever-anticipated class scrap. The Juniors, in their “code of ethics” for the Freshman class, had a rule prohibiting congregating in the hallway or laboratory. And Dr. hitch, though the thought never entered his mind, was the indirect cause of the “scrap. At one of his earlier lectures he informed us that at the next hour he would open an “intelligence bureau, or, in the language of the Freshman, we would catch an “exam. To us this was early, and we necessarily withdrew to the laboratory for a short conference. About twenty of us were gathered together in a comer near the soldering room, when it was noticed that the doorway and hall were blocked with savage-looking men. dressed in sweaters and old clothes; some even had football head-guards on. We at once realized that we were in a predicament. Here we were, twenty boys, expected to charge and put to rout sixty men. You may sing the praises of the Spartans at Thermopylae, but save a little for the valiant band of twenty of Naughty-Five. After forming his line and cautioning his men to keep cool, President Rightmire gave the signal, and out we rushed. Then came the crash—the tearing of clothing—wrestling—fighting. Outnumbered, we held the enemy, but as time went by, their superior numbers told heavily on our defence. At the end of the hallway is a flight of twenty-six steps, which soon resembled a miniature toboggan-slide. Down we rolled, each clinging all the time to a Junior; rolled on down the steps, out through the vestibule to Clinton Street. Such a thing, however, could not continue long. Most of us in landing had found a soft spot to fall on. but Mason and Bell missed the mark. We called a halt to care for the injured ; and thus the memorable struggle was honorably settled. We were not the victors neither were we defeated. When you think of heroism, remember Naughty Five. Then we settled down to work, for the Christmas exams, were approaching, and we were getting worried. We managed to complete our first set of teeth, but we may be thankful they were not made for anybody to wear. After the holidays we realized what it means to be a dental student, and hustled around as if we owned the place. Everything went well till we reached the point where our “difficult swage’’ was called for. About this much might be said, but suffice it to say, the atmosphere of the prosthetic lab. took on a deep azure tint. The salesmen did a big business in German silver, for it was customary to break about half a dozen plates before we got one to suit our models. But at last came the end, and the suspense, the worry and the grind of final exams, was before us. Amid all of this latter-end trouble and anxiety, the apjiearance of a new fraternity at the College—Xi Psi Phi Fraternity stirred the community. This new chapter was destined to change the politics of the class and the College, and among its charter members were found two of our number. The proud record of Naughty Five is that she did not lose one man in her Freshman year; all passed the test. To Dr. liearne, our lecturer in General Histology, we presented, at the conclusion of his series of lectures, a token of our esteem. With handshaking, with wishes for a successful summer, with a longing hope to see each other again at the beginning of our Junior year, we departed, wiser for our troubles, more appreciative of our pleasures, and with a more solid determination to do or die. WHEN we returned in the fall we found that we had grown from green and unsophisticated Freshmen to sturdy Juniors. We had gone through our horseplay, had stood it nobly; and now was presented our opportunity to guide the footsteps of the coming Freshman Class in the ways of peace and quietness. We hunted high and low for Freshmen, but none were in sight. One day, a memorable day, we sighted the Freshman Class as a body, and we found its number but thirty. Pity seized our hearts to have eighty-five men charge these thirty innocent boys was nothing less than murder! But to allow them to enter the sacred walls of our college without any demonstration of welcome was entirely discourteous and entirely contrary to the traditions of the College. While we were discussing our plans of action, the Seniors rounded up the Freshmen, and told them to fight, and promised them their united strength. We cornered the Freshmen in the reading room, and singled out one, a veritable elephant in size, and told him to jump on the table and sing. He refused, so we set out to make him do the stunt.” His resistance was most powerful, and in the struggle we swayed from side to side, crashing into the glass cases of the cabinets, breaking chairs, tearing coats, hats, ties; and then on the table we threw him. The table, too, became rebellious, and refused to stand, and with a crash we were thrown heavily to the floor—the Freshman underneath. Again we lifted him, and this time gently laid him on another table. Our request for a song was denied, so we took oil his shoes; his stubbornness led to the removal of his socks, and as we started to remove his trousers he saw the folly of his actions, and gave quite a pleasing exhibition. While this was in progress, the Seniors charged us. Fitzgerald's strategy saved the day. The windows facing Eleventh Street were opened, and the rushing Seniors were hurled out of the windows into the street. This took all the ginger out of them, and we smoked the “pipe of peace.” The term of the Freshman Class officers had expired. The success of the Freshman Class was due to the earnest efforts of our President, Mr. V. A. Rightmire. who, by example, put in our hearts a courage that offset the numbers of our Junior enemies. At the first meeting of the Class the following were nominated for Junior year offices: President, W W. Duff ell, Wm. C. T. Bauerle; Vice- President, Wm. Hofmann, Howard H. Shepler; Secretary, Morford Throckmorton, David H. Noll. Miss Laura Edel; Treasurer, A. J. McKnight, Floyd Sandt. At the next meeting. Mr. Duffel], Mr. Bauerle and Mr. Shepler declined to run. This left a vacancy in the Presidency, and the following were nominated for the office: H. H. Bell, Edward Metschan. J. Louis Mintz. The following were elected at a later meeting: President. J. Louis Mintz; Vice-President, Wm. Hofmann. Secretary, David H. Noll; Treasurer, Floyd Sandt. About this time Betts and Crandall opened a tonsorial parlor in the lab., near the washstand. Susan, one of the red-sock fame, came in for a look. Betts cut his hair, and Crandall gave him the Plaster of Paris shampoo. But Crandall and Betts did not join the plumbers' union, so Torpey and '‘Pop’ Green seized the fixtures for back payments on Betts’ $2.98 pipe, which made its appearance a short time before. The pipe is now doing the work of a twenty-horse-power motor to run Owen’s” lathes. A theatrical production was held the week before Christmas to defray the expenses of an operation for the removal of a growth on Eigenraueh's inferior maxilla. The following program was rendered: SUNNY JACK CLARK...........................................Monologist. “ How I Insured a Dyspeptic for $10,000.” R. T. ROTH................................The Hap-(Hazzard) Acrobat. REITER and MERTZ, ... . Allentown’s Dutch Comedians. GEORGE V KALB..........................................Basso profundo. “My sweet little Camden maid.” “ Jes twist you' mouf an’ yell. B. and H. KIRSCHENBAUM.............................“Siamese Twins.” A large sum of money was realized, and the balance was used to defray the expense of engaging Suzuki to teach Midget Woods jiu-jitsu. Coultes’ work in the operating room was of the gilt-edge order. One of his patients was so overwrought with his gentle treatment that she kissed him—age (five years). This particular piece of work led to his appointment in his Senior year as Head Constable and Door Locker under Dr. Roe. One of the social events of the year was the college smoker, the Senior Class as honorary guests. There was a little “doing on the side. Some, well versed in pugilistic lore, say the “youngsters” may make a mark some day. The novelty of the night was when Holly Bell smoked his big Missouri double-decker. But his ‘‘pipe dream” never came true. He had a vision of a lot of chorus girls in the “Star” Theatre, with his “star of stars” in the lime-light. It is rumored that the “Sun” of the “Star” came home suddenly, and was ready to “set ” on Holly, when he concluded dentistry was good enough for him. Of all our number, Max Rairigh is the friendliest of the friendly. He dropped from Pittsburgh Dental, and was here but a few days when he made the acquaintance of several policemen and a magistrate. The magistrate said, “Well, my boy, what is your occupation?” “S;jj$gent,” answered our hero of the Philippines. “What is the nature of your work?” “ Plugging, and outside of its literal truth, be it known, that every one has contributed to Max’s tobacco fund. But it truthfully can be said, that of all our number, Max was the sunniest and a man that can sit and calmly swage down a metal plate while a vulcanizer sizzes—and then explodes, is worthy of all praise. There was never more excitement about College than at the fire, which destroyed the entire left wing and damaged some valuable specimens and charts. At the first alarm, patients went scurrying down the fire escapes, harnessed to rubber dams; some of the fair ones fainted, and, peculiar as it may seem, fainted in the arms of “Gertie” Freeman. One young lady was growing pale, became unsteady, and seemed to totter. Marsh ran to her side and said, “Don’t faint, lady.” She turned around and said, “ I won’t faint until Mr. Freeman comes.” The hero of the day was Yingling. While the fire was blazing all about him he calmly plugged at a gold filling. It was this dare-devil spirit that aided in his election as Treasurer of the Class in the Senior year, for it takes a man of iron nerve, with no fear of fire (either now or hereafter), to strike a broken-down “ poker fiend ” for class dues. The Junior year now drew to a close, and the election of officers for the Wilbur F. Pitch and the C. N. Peirce Dental Societies became imperative. In the Wilbur F. Pitch Society the election passed off smoothly. The following were elected: President, Thomas A. Fitzgerald; Vice-President, A. B. Mason; Secretary, Max A. Rairigh; Treasurer, P. P. Woods. In the C. N. Peirce Society, however, there was a very spirited campaign. The two rival factions strained every nerve to elect their man. The first meeting became so wild it was adjourned for a week. On the second ballot the following were elected: President, Floyd Sandt; Vice-President, Charles Assenheimer; Secretary, William Hofmann; Treasurer. Edward Metschan. The successful faction celebrated the victory with a “banquet” held at various parts of the city. If you listen, you can hear the echo of Metschan ’s“Who-op ee ee.” Translated from the Oregonian dialect, it means, “ Where did you tie your mules?” Amid all this we found time to make a partial upper and lower metal plate with teeth soldered on, and an interdental splint. Regarding this work, the least said is soonest mended Those partial plates kept us guess- ing. and when it came to the soldering act, well, it’s a good thing they were invested in asbestos. During this year we got our first insight into Oral Surgery, and many wished it was our last sight, too; for a good, stiff quiz on differential diagnosis is all a Junior can take in (and some Seniors, too). Our first experiences at the operating chair would make interesting reading, but we will leave those stories for our patients to tell. Doubtless, they could furnish a few embellishments which we would leave off. At any rate, we got through it all safely, and after numerous attempts to tell Dr. Litch the latest prescriptions (it’s well they were never taken, or some undertaker would have had a job), we approached the second set of finals, which would determine 'whether we should become Seniors or not. At last they were over, and we scattered far and wide to try our new found knowledge. DID you ever see a bantam rooster after a fight, see it stmt up and down the yard, making as much noise as possible? That is a mental picture of Newman's first appearance at the college at the beginning of his Senior year. Of all the noisy boys, Newman was one. But since he has been elected poet of the class, he walks with drooping head, his eyes are sorrowful, his voice sweet and low, mumbling strange chants, which run something like this: •‘Well, well, — Holly Bell. Of all the boys you are a 4 sell; ’ With ‘but three up and one to play,’ You pull the ace, and save the day.” Of course, there was a grand display of fireworks when the fellows returned. The swift pace of Chestnut Street was too much for them. Reiter and Mertz wanted Lucas to take them back to the farm; Lucas refused the request, but made a miniature farm, where “ Joe” raised a good crop of “Force,” which he says saved him a “site” of breakfast money. About the only thing Reiter raised was the devil, and he still has a large supply on hand. Hamilton came back from “New York” (that is, Jersey City) with a half-ripe mustache, and was instantly seized by Myers, who, with face all radiant, told him of the visit of the stork, and immediately went on with a lot of silly nonsense of some of the funny things my baby said.” The term of the Junior year officers had expired, and the election for the last and most important year was at hand. It was evident from the start that the class was divided, so the day of nominations was awaited with anxious interest. Sundry rumors filled the air, and when Dr. Warren opened his lecture on that memorable Monday in October, he had a full attendance. At the close of his lecture, President Mintz called the meeting to order, and our great political caucus was open. Had a Presidential candidate heard those speeches before a National campaign, surely there would be some appointments as stump speakers. The one thing of importance that occurred was the election of Dr. J. Bird Moyer as our Honorary President without a dissenting vote. All were harmonious in his choice, and when his name was proposed and carried through there was a cheer that would do one's heart good. The choice of President was, of course, the one great question, and it hung between Messrs. Bauerle and Betts. Mr. Bauerle was the best floor man of the class. His arguments were always sound, had a ring of the true every time they were presented, and he was a student of the front rank. Mr. Betts was a hustler from the word go, an At student, arid a parliamentarian of the gilt-edge order. Such were the men whom the class picked out to be its leaders. That next week was a memorable one. Never before in the history of the College was a Senior election waged with such aggressiveness as marked the campaign of 1905. Every committeeman was on the jump—vote-hunters were everywhere. Studies were temporarily suspended and stump speakers were on every “ lab. bench in the college. “ Sam ’’ Hoade opened Committee Headquarters in the extracting room, and Mo Abramson and the Elder Coultcs made periodical visits to the college to see that all was well on their side. At the start Betts was ahead, but at the end of the week it looked as if the vote would be a tie. 'Chen came the day of election; it was bright and clear—even’ voter was out. President Mintz called the meeting to order, appointed tellers, arid at 5. 0 p. m. the vote commenced. Soon the count was begun, with Josh Crandall as marker. The marks for President were very close- first, Mr. Bauerle would lead, only to be passed by Mr. Betts. Never was the lead more than four. The suspense of the delay caused much mirth during the count. Mr. Bauerle. only an occasional smoker, borrowed a big double-decker Oom Paul pipe, and smoked not only his own. but all the tobacco he could borrow. Mr. Betts, it was seen, was interested in an editorial on the Simple Life, but upon investigation it was found that his paper was upside down. Some of the members of the Twentieth Century Club, led by Metsch,” lent their sporting blood to the affair, and opened a book for wagering flasks, vulcanizers, and dental engines on the result of the election. But many had “soaked a suit or an overcoat to aid the campaign committees, and the betting was light. The vote zig-zagged for fully an hour, and then it was seen that Mr. Bauerle and Mr. Betts stood tie at forty-eight. Then Josh broke a piece of chalk for Mr. Bauerle—another piece of chalk again Mr. Bauerle a third- Mr. Bauerle again -and as the last vote gave Mr. Bauerle the election, a mighty shout went up from the class— pandemonium reigned. Mr. Bauerle was shouldered and paraded all about the College. The result of the election was as follows: President, . . Vice-President, , . . Secretary, Treasurer, Historian, Prophet, . Poet, Orator, . Artists, . Executive Committee L. N. Bernstein S. Blumberg E. L. Metschan George V. Kalb S. W. Reed W. E. Myers J. Roscoe Jones Wm. C. T. Bauerle George B. Irvine Alexander R. Hamilton D. L. Yingling David H. Noll L. W. Marsh L. E. Newman Floyd C. Sandt R. T. Roth, J. J. Angulo Record Committee H. H. Shepler H. C. Dehn M. de Vecchis Max Herchenroder E. M. Sullivan J. L. ('halfin V. A. Rightmire That night there was a parade of the “faithful,” and refreshments were served, and speeches were all in order. A select gathering occurred in the ” Keg,” at Mr. Bauerle’s invitation, with Messrs. Betts, Bannan and Reed as honorary guests. Assenheimer entertained the crowd with an acrobatic stunt, balancing himself on the back of a chair, but the chair rebelled and Charlie took a tumble. Betts smoked his first Frankfurter that night, while Hamilton. Reed and Bannan gave us an imitation of Chauncey Depew's storv-telling act. Herchenroder left out the conversational part of the evening, doing more in the “ordering up.” One of the mysteries of the election was solved soon after by a story from Hen Faber. There were only one hundred and one men in the room at election time, but one hundred and two votes showed up. Hen explained it by saying that both sides had given him a ticket, and as he did not want to hurt anyone’s feelings he just voted both tickets. The next week the Senior Class gave a smoker. There was a little doing on the side in the manly art game. Betts, Fischer and Wolkin entertained the classes with a coffee-throwing act. Wolkin now has a match on with Mitchell, the Canadian “Coffee-cooler.” But these were not all of the wonderful things we did. Mintz and Freemantel showed their college spirit by attempting to organize a Glee Club with Blumberg, Warshawsky and Goldman as chief warblers. It started out all well enough, but after a few frantic struggles died a natural death. Our work for the Senior year was none the lighter because of these outside matters. Life in the operating room was made more bearable by the addition of a dozen line new Columbia chairs during the Christmas holidays. The demonstrators kept us busy all year with operating, and our knowledge of the ills of humanity was greatly augmented. During this year we were required to make a full upper bridge in German silver. Truly it was a bridge of sighs (and some cuss words), for the contrariness of silver and solder is trying to the spirit, as Dr. Litch can truthfully testify. Then came the swaging and vulcanizing of our obturators and vela. More than one was put down amid angry and expressive exclamations, and to-day many of them rest in peace, surrounded by a little blue halo. Hoade put his down, solemnly swearing never to make another (and straightway took a patient who had to have one). Poor Wimbish never got through making his obturator(s) until the day they were called in, though numerous members of the class can testify that he is a first-class workman. (Names furnished on application.) The work of the year gradually drew to a close. Sandt. Mertz. Lucas. Betts and others took trips home to see the folks, and then settled down to plugging for finals. One of the events of the latter part of the year was the election of Shepler and Betts to represent the College in the National Essay Contest of the Dental Brief. The treasurer of the institution incidentally gave us an opportunity to donate thirty dollars more for the benefit of education. Five dollars to get in, thirty dollars to say goodbye! Then came the quizzes and the rush of the latter days. Dr. Kretsch-man gave us two terrific (?) exams, in porcelain work and electro-deposit. Truly did we work and study for those days. Our final in Materia Medica Assenheimer and Roth are a pair of workers. Charlie’s bridge was soldered without an investment, while the army sergeant will be a great find with all the gold Bob put away in his mouth. It is said that George Irvine is so slight that he has to stand in the same place three times to make a shadow. It may be so, but he certainly held down one of the chairs as assistant in anatomy about as well as even Lucas himself could have done. But at last it was all over and our examinations were concluded. Two weeks ago we _ heard the glad news that we had passed them all. and to-day we are ready for our degree. —- We cannot close without referring to the v 4 TXe grand celebration after receiving our an- nouncements. The old college has seen considerable “rough house,” but little to compare with that. If a thousand demons were let loose they would not make more racket than was heard on that day. There were various parades and much smashing of hats, together with many private gatherings, but the pile of hat brims and portions of felt at the college told the tale of a hot time before the fellows separated for the two weeks’ vacation preceding commencement. There is but one more chapter of our history to write the future. May we ever profit by the teachings we have received here be an honor and a glory to our dear Alma Mater; and may each one strive to be better in every way and to have a daily thought for those we have met here— for those who are far away. David H. Noll. P. C. D. S. Pennsylvania, Pennsylvania, grand old State of Penn ! Can you tell us of the college Deali ng out best Dental knowledge, Surgical and operative, to its student men ? Praises sing they of some others which they say are best, Constructed on the modern plan. Dean, a perfect gentleman, Surely, these are not requirements that will stand the test! Perhaps you wot of one, with buildings very plain. Containing in its modest halls. De spite the fact of lowly walls. Something more than fancy buildings—a faculty with brain. Professors who teach their subjects clearly to the men. Clearly pointing out their errors. Driving forth all state board terrors. Surely, you can name this college, can t you, Father Penn ? L. E. N. “ Yet my heart Throbs to know one thing: tell me if your art Can tell so much. ONE evening, after a hard day's work in my office, I sat by the open window resting. The day had been exceptionally hard, and the hours had passed slowly away. The air had been stifling; the sun sent down his rays drying up the growths of vegetation; the streets were deserted by all except him who was compelled by necessity to brave the heat of the day. As I sat in my easy chair looking out through the open window, I could see the last rays of the sun as he disappeared behind the horizon, and the dusk of evening was settling down to hush the lazy hum of life into greater quietness. Fireflies were flitting about adding their feeble light to the dreamy music of some insects which murmured from distant trees and roofs, while the song of the whip-poor-will could be heard in the distance. In fact, all was silent and dreamlike as I sat musing and thinking of my classmates of “Old Penn. How long I had sat thus, or who had come or gone in the meantime, I do not know, but during a period of semi-consciousness 1 had an “insight into the future. Certain visions of what is to come seemed to be distinctly portrayed before me in such a vivid manner as could leave no doubt that they would, in time, be verified: First of all, I seemed to he carried by some invisible, yet powerful, force to Philadelphia, and there, on one of the principal streets, I saw the following notice: Chalfin, Blum berg and Miller, Dentists. Teeth Extracted Free and Without Pain. Artificial Teeth, per set................. Si 98 Alloy fillings . . ......$0.50 now $0.25 Silver fillings . . $1 00 now $0 50, etc. Passing rapidly down Broad Street, I next noticed the modest sign: Drs. Woods. Shepler and Lucas, Dental Surgeons. Knowing that I would be made perfectly welcome, I strolled into the building which was massive and magnificently decorated. I was much pleased at the unique manner in which their separate chairs had been set up. Dr. Shepler had his on a high pedestal of bronze, as it would have been beneath his dignity to stoop, even while operating. Dr. Woods had his set in a deep depression in the floor, otherwise he would have required a step ladder. Dr. Lucas’ idea was the most brilliant, striking me as being quite original. It was neither high nor low, but the sides of the chair were made concave to accommodate the prominent part of his anatomy. They informed me that they were doing very well in their practice, attributing their success to the magnificent flow of language possessed by Dr. Shepler. When 1 returned to my hotel 1 found an invitation to a banquet given in honor of the dentists anil their wives of Philadelphia The invitation stated that none but those having a “pull were to be invited, and all were assured of a “filling'’ time. Among those present were Drs. Noll, Hofmann and Clark. During my conversation with them in the course of the evening, I learned some important, as well as interesting, facts relating to the career of a few of the Class '05, some of which are as follows: Drs. flood and Kalb had invented an airship propelled by perpetual motion. They claimed that the speed of 175 miles per hour could be obtained and maintained, the perfect control of the machine, at the high altitude of twenty miles, being an established fact. Dr. Sandt had, after several years of diplomacy, established a monopoly of all the air. He was admitted into partnership with Good and Kalb, for without air the aerial car would have been useless. The company made the claim that within five years they would establish lines between all points; that passengers and freight could be carried safer, cheaper and quicker than by railroad or steamboat. Dr. Geo. Irvine had filled the Chair of Anatomy of the University of Pennsylvania for several years. Dr. Coultes has the honor of being Bacteriologist for Canada. Resulting from his labors, many things not previously understood by bacteriologists had been presented in such a clear, concise and irrevocable manner, as to leave no doubt of efficacy, or room for criticism. From Philadelphia I was carried to Salt Lake City by the invisible force, where I found mvself gazing at an old, dilapidated, tumble-down, log cabin on the outskirts of the city. Before it was an imposing sign constructed of weather-beaten fenceboards, upon which was printed in various colors the following: Drs. L. E. Newman and M. L. Freeman Dentists. Only Young and Pretty Girls Admitted for Treatment. Surprised to find my fellow classmates so far from home, I was puzzled for an instant as to what could have induced them to locate in such an out-of-the-way place, when I remembered their weakness for the fair sex. It immediately flashed across my mind that they had gone there, not solely to practice dentistry, but also to be participants in the prevailing custom of that locality, plural marriages. I at once entered the building, but in so doing I had to stoop considerably, the door being quite low. The worthy healers did not notice my presence, they were so interested in an argument between themselves as to which would operate on a young (?) lady. I coughed to draw attention, which tact was successful, for Newman at once recognized me and invited me into the waiting room, where, with his chest swelled out with manly pride, he gave me an introduction to the waiting patients, the youngest of which must have been thirty-five at least. Being somewhat bashful among so many young ladies, I hastily excused myself, wishing the doctors joy in their enterprise. Somehow, Newman and Freeman always did make a hit .with the ladies. From there I traveled to Portland. Oregon, where the first thing I saw was a sign which read: Headquarters of THE Twentieth Century Donating Club. Pres., E. L. Metschan, Cor. Sec., Holly H. Bell. Knowing that my old friends would welcome me, I started toward the building, but the vision was instantaneously blotted out, and in the twinkling of an eye I found myself in Jersey City, gazing at a large second-hand clothing store, before which was a sign bearing the following inscription: L. N. Bernstein. Dealer in Second-hand Clothing, Suits for Hire Bargain Sale Daily. I entered the store, but the proprietor seemed very busy endeavoring to sell Dr. Goldman a second-hand Prince Albert suit and a silk hat. Gold- man needed them in his business, as it appeared he had abandoned dentistry and taken to selling quack medicines on the streets of Princeton. Ilis impressive method of speaking which he acquired in class meetings, being an invaluable aid to him in his new vocation. Again the scene was changed, and I found myself in the presence of Rairigh and Throckmorton. After a general exchange of our various experiences since graduating, they told me of a trip they had recently taken, during which they saw several of the “boys of ’05.'’ Dr. Rightmire had taken up medicine after receiving his degree of D. D. S.. and by practicing both professions and speculating he had gathered considerable of this world’s goods into his gamer. Dr. Betts had practiced dentistry for a few years, and, although he had good success, his work did not appeal to him as he had hoped, so he joined a company of traveling musicians. Dr. Freemantel was the leading tenor of the company, and Dr. Mintz the principal soloist. Because of the efficient manner in which the company was managed, and the talent it had employed, it became world renowned. I was greatly astonished to learn that Dr. Bauerle was running a matrimonial agency somewhere in the East Indies and was doing remarkably well. His fees were five cents for a marriage and ten cents for a divorce, consequently he made fifteen cents from every sensible man. Miss Siebensohn, shortly after returning to her native country, had been appointed resident dentist and matron of an orphanage asylum. Here again, while still conversing with Rairigh and Throckmorton, the scene was changed, and I found myself in the wilds of Africa, where, amongst the dense growths of vegetation, I saw the office of Dr. Eigen-rauch. He was teaching delsarte and elocution to the natives, and between classes practicing as a local zoological dentist, his chair being constructed of bamboo. At this period I caught a glimpse of Tokio, Japan, where Dr. Suzuki was enjoying a lucrative practice. By his persevering habits he had gained a high standing in the profession, his methods being adopted in all countries. In the Modem College of Dental Surgery of Tokio, he had been Dean, and Professor of Principles and Practice ever since the college was organized. I wanted to talk over old times with my Japanese friend, but fates were against me, for I found myself back in my own country in New York City. In going down Broadway, I came to a barber shop. Being in need of the services of a barber. I entered, and you can imagine my astonishment when, in the smiling barber, I recognized Dr. Yingling. He had in despair given up dentistry and joined the society, “The Knights of the Razor and Shaving Pot.” My next vision was the interior of a combined dental parlor and ladies’ hair-dressing establishment. It appeared that Dr. Dehn had taken pity on a quack dentist of New York and took him into his care. They, realizing that a hair-dressing department in connection with their office would prove a source of income, immediately made such an addition. Upon inquiry as to who had charge of the new department, I was informed that it was under the management of the wives of the dentists. Mrs. Dehn, nee Miss Glantz, and the wife of Dr. Dehn's partner, formerly Miss Edel, conducted the establishment to its best advantage. Noticing a large crowd hurrying along the street, I joined it. After walking two or three blocks we entered a large massive building containing an amphitheatre. I inquired as to the object of the gathering, receiving the information that there was to be a lecture, the subject being. “ Love, Courtship and Marriage.'' We had been seated but a few minutes, when the lecturer appeared, and after being introduced he proceeded somewhat as follows: “Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen: 1 take great pleasure to-night in presenting to you a subject with which nearly all are more or less familiar. Speaking from experience. I will endeavor to lecture to you on the subject of ‘Love, Courtship and Marriage.’ ” At this point I recognized in the speaker my old friend of Penn Dental. Dr. Hoade. In the most eloquent and impressive delivery he continued, saying: “In the first place, I will briefly give the introductory outline of my talk as follows: “What then is love? Delightful emotion that binds the mother to her offspring dear daughter of desire and parent of tender sensibilities, heaver of the throbbing heart, and sweet exciter of the maiden’s blush, how how shall we describe thee? “ ‘ What thing is Love which nought can countervail? Nought save itself, even such a thing is Love; And worldly wealth in worth as far doth fail. As lowest earth doth yield to heaven above. Divine is Love, and scometh worldly pelf, And can be bought with nothing but with self. “Courtship, in which the gentleman does the agreeable, is a very pleasant thing. It is so delightful in itself that many persons never go further. It consists in much billing and cooing, in serenading, in walks by the lonely lake or unfrequented path, in the moonlight stroll upon the lawn, or the whispered conversation in the recess of the window, in interchange of love and eternal fidelity, etc. Love makes all harmonize. The coy maiden, it is true, will be very shy for a while, and ‘faint heart never gained fair lady;’ but for all that, if not preoccupied, “ Who listens once will listen twice. For sure heart is not of ice. And one refusal no rebuff.’ At this juncture I was suddenly recalled to consciousness by the clanging of firebells and hurrying of many feet. At first I could not realize but that the things I had seemingly seen were true, but gradually it dawned upon me that I had had an insight into the things to come, a vision of the future. The foregoing is distinctly what 1 saw in my vision. If it should in any way cause hard feelings, do not blame me personally, but lay it to my vivid imagination. My general prophecy for our illustrious class is as follows: There will be those whose objective point in life is high, even higher than is possible to reach. Those who aim thus will reach a high place in the estimation of all with whom they come in contact, will obtain and enjoy success, will have the consciousness that they have fought a good fight, have been instrumental in raising the standard of human life to higher planes, that they have probed the mysteries of nature to deeper depths, assisted in broadening the scope of intellectual possibilities and the psychic capacity of those with whom they associate. Such of us who reach such spcial and professional standing shall be as a fertile oasis in a great desert to whom come great caravans of people seeking advice, assistance and intellectual nourishment, or they may be likened to a bright light illuminating the darkness in its vicinity, scattering the gloom of ignorance and superstition, leaving in its place lofty ideas, true and noble. Never before in the history of the world has fortune offered to men greater advantages, greater opportunities and possibilities to rise on the pinnacle of fame and usefulness. But those whom fortune has led to the “altar of fame” are invariably men of the strictest integrity and honor— men who give the best and most there is in them and their undivided efforts to accomplish that which they believe to be right men who have often labored amidst profound discouragement, and in the depths of despair, unknown, unhonored, unrewarded, until the hour arrives when they may best serve their fellowbeings. One of man’s greatest blessings is that there lie in his nature infinite possibilities of growth. When man is old—if he has lived for what is great and exalted—his mind is clear, his heart tender, his soul glad. Only those races are noble, only those individuals are worthy, who yield without reserve to the power of this impulse to ceaseless progress. Behold how the race from which we have sprung breaks forth into ever new developments of strength and beauty, creating literature, philosophy, science, art; receiving Christian truth, and through its aid rising to diviner heights of wisdom, power, love and knowledge. And so there are those in our class for whom to live is to grow; who, forgetting what they have been and what they are, think ever only of becoming more and more. Their education will never be finished; their development never complete; their work never done. From victories won, from tasks accomplished, from difficulties overcome, they look to other battlefields, to other duties, to other fields of labor; from every height of knowledge they will peer into the widening nescience; from all achievements and earthly possessions they will turn away toward the unapproachable Infinite to whom they are drawn. From our class there shall spring such men as just pictured, and by their courage, perseverance and indomitable will they wall sometime, somewhere, have their names written in the world’s history among those who served best their fellowmen. Some of us will be poor dentists, but I trust none will be dishonorable men. The reason why so many on the lowest round of the ladder never rise much higher evidently is, they aspire eagerly but refuse to w’ork thoroughly. Good dentists, indifferent dentists, poor dentists will represent our class in the future. Some who have made a grievous mistake in chos-ing dentistry for their life’s vocation will take up other work more suited to them in which they will have the most satisfactory results, while some will not be so wise but endeavor to eke out a livelihood by doing inferior work at a nominal fee. Twenty years from now fifty per cent, of our number will be practicing dentistry with successful results, ten per cent, will be having poor success, twenty per cent, will be following other lines of work, and the remainder will have passed to their reward. We will be represented in all countries and climates, but the band of fellowship and comradeship will keep us closely united for many years to come, and in the “storehouse of memory gems” we will, even after we have retired from life’s activities and our hair becomes silvery, our steps slow, our forms bent, look back with pride to our beloved Alma Mater and our college associates. Such is the future of our class. Lyman W. Marsh. VEXING draws near. The bright sun of happiness is misted with the sadness of parting. Long (and yet how short seems the time!) M—4 have we striven to reach this day; impatiently have we awaited the time to receive our degree. But now our waitings are rewarded; our longings are satisfied; our fears are at rest. To-morrow our names will be on the alumni scroll of our Alma Mater, and each man anxious to fight his way up the ladder of life and gain the reward due a faithful and ambitious son. Every man in every profession needs his ideal and his motto to guide him. Whatever the goal may be. the advantages of an education taken from the accumulated learning of the ages are but the shield of man's armor with which he may ward off the darts of poverty, obscurity and tyranny. Some of us choose to absorb it in the light of the noonday sun; some in the light of bright streaks mixed with the mountain shadow’s, and others in the dim light of the sunset glow. But it is not so much the darkness as the fault of the eye which prevents vison. It is not so much the mist of difficulties as the failure to dispel or climb above it which often hides the object from the seeker. The dominant thought and lesson instilled by a dental education is not theory alone, not skill or art alone, nor science alone, but self-reliability. Education has only stimulated our inherent powers. Man is like a stone in the rough. The more there is in the rough stone the more valuable is the polished gem. The stronger the native powers which dominate over the artificial endowments, the greater is the man. But the greatness of a professional man rests upon something more. He performs his duty for the good of society, for the advancement of his profession and for the good of mankind; and not alone for his own elevation and honor. Every man cannot be a great genius; but, as Carlyle says, “ Every genius is an impossibility until he appears.” Although dentistry does not open the doors of fame to a sudden rise, still its theories are being advanced higher and higher in the same proportion as all other professions. Though our future may not admit of such rapid strides upward as that of Edison, Westinghouse and other renowned men. yet we can raise ourselves higher in the esteem of the world according to our ability to grasp opportunities and as we ourselves grow intellectually. Man is not placed in this world as a spectator. Necessity, not pleasure, calls him to action. No famous man ever thrived on the arid fields of indifference. Man must grapple with opposing forces in order to advance toward his fixed aim in life; but if he pursues that aim with a steady, constant endeavor he cannot fail. There is an obligation on the part of every college-educated man toward his country and his state. Every American should be proud of the efforts more than princely which this nation has made for the highest and broadest liberal education. The country in its first appropriation gave to the states one thirty-second of its domain for education. No prince or power ever gave such a gift. When you hear it said that the American people love the dollar and cherish it alone, ask in reply what people ever gave so large a part of its land for the elevation of the mind of its youth. Within the same four walls and under the same instruction as we received, such brilliant men as Fierce, bitch, Darby, Angle, Atkinson. Kirk and many others took their first step up the ladder of dental fame, and from the same old college received their degree of Doctor of Dental Surgery. Whatever man has hitherto achieved man may still accomplish. If this were a world of inaction then there would be rest amid the solitude of the forest. But even there from the twittering of the birds to the rush of the winds among the sentinels of nature, everything speaks of action. The idea of the plain simple life is but a theory at this stage of the world’s history, where the map of the globe is revised every day. And, as history advances, so must our profession. Fifty years ago, when Pennsylvania Dental College sent her first class out into the world, dentistry was but a trade or business. To-day, it embraces art. science, skill, literature and delves so deeply into the medical theories, that instead of being a branch of medicine it is now recognized as a distinct and honored profession and specialty. In this age of monopolies there is no cornering of brains, and if any young man, in the words of President Roosevelt, bucks the line hard and stands firm, duty will be easily done. There is too prevalent the taste for recognition and popular influence, which should not be the prevaling thought.. If a man does his best and success crowns his efforts, it is only what is expected of him; but if he fails with all the advantages he has had. then he must answer for it himself. There are three important factors in our future life upon which depends our standing in the profession and among the public at large. They are Ambition, Diplomacy and Character. With even one of these attributes lacking, we are lost sight of in the activity of the business world. But the one most to be desired is character. This is the force which, residing within us, gives us our individuality and places us either above or below our fellow-man. If this element is wanting in our life, our acts will correspond and, although our outward appearance may save us for the moment, ultimate failure will surely follow. Music may thrill and the drama amuse, but the presence of that spirit which prompts man to be honest in his dealings and dutiful in his labor is a much higher object to be attained and surer comfort in the future. To seize opportunity with a hand of steel and mold therewith a name lies in the power of every man. He need not knock for another to open the door of success, for each holds the key in his own hand. “ Desire not to live long, but to live well, How long we live, not years, but actions tell.” Wherever the light of truth has been carried into the regions of ignorance. wherever the cause of liberty has won its greatest triumph over tyranny, wherever humanity has taken the place of the most barbarous cruelty, it has been accomplished by a man, who. through his own efforts, has first driven the dark form of ignorance and hungry-eyed poverty from his presence and then beaten down every opposing obstacle and surmounted every rocky barrier. As we meet this afternoon for the last time as a class of the college, we are reluctant to part. The past is distinct and sure; the future is uncertain and clouded. The impetuous strength and uncurbed desire that bore us on are now lacking. To-morrow we will be hastening to the four corners of the earth. We will be scattered from far off Italy to fair Japan, and from the icy Northland to the sunlit skies of the Tropics. Moreover, we will be represented in all parts of the Union. But part we must. We feel a grasp of the hand, a whispered farewell, and, blinded, we turn reluctantly from the scenes of happiness and love of friends. That those left behind are true friends, we now more than ever fully recognize. Three years of constant intercourse have beaten down the hedges and spanned the gulf between professor and student. Were it only that we leave you as teachers the parting would not bring so much regret, but the ties that bind and cause pain in their breaking asunder are those of true friendship. By your method of combining kindness and sympathy with instruction, you have won our respect and love. Now we see what opportunities slipped by unheeded, what work was left undone and what chances in every phase of college life were disregarded. For our ideals we need none outside of the faculty of our dear old college. And as the sunlight touches the world as it revolves it will never cast a ray but that a man of 1905 will there be doing the work of his beloved institution. We will be here and there in Costa Rica, Cuba, Canada, Germany England, Austria, Australia, France, Greece. Japan, Chile, South America and all over this broad land of ours, and though we may never be able to return to our Alma Mater as a body we will many times picture to ourselves the olden days when the Class of 1905 was here in session. The future is impatient. The present is desolate. The past recedes and is shadowed in sadness. The air of evening is cool and the waves sob against the silent shores. Far over the dark waters glides the departing vessel. Now it enters the narrow strait and is about to emerge upon the open boundless sea. Fastened to the masthead is the motto of its crew, “Self is the man.” When, hark! faint and low and sad over the restless waves comes to those on shore the breathing whisper, “Vale! Vale! Farewell! Farewell!” Floyd C. Sandt. SENIORS’ PRAYER Omnipotent! bless them all. Doctors Brubaker. Broomell; This being our earnest call For Doctor Loder as well. Father! Blessings we do ask Blessings in the full extent. Bless good Moyer, in his task, Our honorary President. Source of grace, wisdom's tower. To Thee we sing in highest pitch. Give us strength, lend us power To pass Exams of Father bitch. Oh, Father! Hear our tale of woe. Now need we Thy approbation. When thinking of Professor Roe And his triple examination. Thus our supplication ends We fear no other friction; Our good Doctor Warren sends Himself his benediction. B. K.. 05. Not marble nor the gilded mot: aments of princes shall outlive this powerful rhyme. A RETROSPECT In the month of September of “ Nineteen-two,' ’ In the halls of old P. C. D S.. There were gathered together a motley crew From all over the world, more or less. There were Spaniards and Cubans, sombre and dark, And the Germans from over the Rhine; Canadians, too, always out for a lark; Russ and Jap had some specimens fine. From France and from Italy also they came For Penn Dental diplomas to strive; Americans were there for reasons the same; And all formed this great class of nought-five. ” In “soapology” room they worked with a vim Under Pop” Kretschman’s judicious care; With Histology they were filled to the brim By Hearn, who with noises they tried hard to scare. Then up to the loft as poor Freshies they went To first whiff the foul smell of the stiffs; And with Grant Loder twenty hours were spent, Osteology learned between whiffs. And in the next session, oh, joy of all joys! They dissected the arm and the leg; Their knives they did ply like a lot of school boys When they’re playing at mumble-the-peg. From Professor Moyer they first learned to make 2S with Howard Shepler’s aid, The aroma of which was so hard to shake That some carry it yet, I'm afraid. Professor P. Loder anatomy taught With his red butcher apron and knives; To explain reflex action Brubaker sought. They’ll remember it all of their lives. From Dean Pitch materia medica they learned; From Broomell, about making of plates; While Geo. Warren lectured, all order they spurned; Roe spoke on pathological states. And so through three years, crowns and bridges they made. And many a lecture attended; Till now, the memories of lectures will fade. For their college days are now ended. 5}c jje j)c sj: To-day we reach the parting of the ways; We now go forth for worldly honors to strive, Carrying sweet memories of our school days. Our Alma Mater and this class of “five.” But e’er we part, I beg of you to note E’en though upon your patience I trespass. The character sketches that here I quote, A study of the members of this class. That when in future years, as every name Upon the honor roll of fame appears. We can recall the owners of the same As they appeared during our college years. Honorary President. J. Bird Moyer. To give him due praise. I can’t find the word; To do so would take a very good lawyer. Although he's no jay, you bet he’s a “bird.” Tis said. “Once on a time, there was a man And his praises they sing on land and sea This man amongst men, deny it. who can? Is our own President, Bill Bauerle. B stands for Bauer, and also for beer. Beer came o’er first, and then Bauer came after; When the roll was called. Bauer answered, he-ah,' Always causing a great deal of laughter. Bell and McKnight, Canadian chums, Two closer friends can’t be found, north or south At night. Holly likes to visit the slums; McKnight’s plates fit. until tried in the mouth. J. P. Chamberlain, the real pretty boy, To call him sister is now very rash. For he has acquired a soft brown toy. It looks like an eyebrow, he calls it mustache. 11 ere are the Kirschenbaum twins. H and K. Each lecture found them ten minutes late; Then into the room like horses they’d stray. And sit like convicts awaiting their fate. Of our German lassie, 1 11 say right here. Of “nought-five she’s by far the prettiest lass; Now note this, but don’t let Miss Edel hear— But she is the only girl in the class. Nervous and gray, and apparently old, But. Miss Siebensohn is chock full of pluck: A virtue worth more than its weight in gold; Her future, we hope, will bring her good luck. F-r-e-e-m-a-n-t-l-e. Pronounced Frrrmantlc, it raises a breeze; With proud, haughty air. that’s fearful to see. The owner says, “ FreemanTEi., if you please.” Floyd Sandt is the man of the iron jaw. The human graphophone, ladies and gents. He can out-taik any mother-in-law. But differs from them in that he talks sense. Metschan, who's taller than all by a head, Claims he can see from his home to Hong Kong; Jack Clark was thinking of him when he said, “The oesophagus is thirty feet long.” While the great Eastern war-pot was seething, And the papers wrote news meager and terse, Our Russian baby, dial fin, was teething, Rocked by Suzuki, his Japanese nurse. Stand back and bow, here comes J. Louis Mintz; I'll whisper it, or he’d get in a rage. That walk and that air, so much like a prince, Is only put on—’twas learned on the stage. The gray, grand, old man of the class is he. And he deserves that name well, I ween it; For Hoade's every action and word, you see, Is expressed in his motto, “We mean it..’’ Just as big of heart as of hand is he, Our Jersey blacksmith, Vincent Rightmire, Mitchell’s apprenticed to him. they tell me, Kalb and Noll blow hot air on his fire. If silence is wisdom, Williams is wise. For rarely a word will he say, Till Frank Bell opens the pot and his eyes, When Elmer quietly says, “I will stay.” Max Herchenroder from old Germany. As bright a fellow as you’d want to meet; A jolly, good-natured German is he, As a beer-drinker he’s right hard to beat. Josh Crandall and Fitz cannot play at “cahds, Neither do they to the “ahmy belong. Though from the same town, they’re jolly good “ pahds;” They're just as noisy and loud as they’re long. Each Friday. Miller, dressed up in his best, Operates at the incurable’s home. Which place with some pretty nurses is blest Into the benedict class he’ll soon roam. There’s Lucas, the man of the lightweight class. And Dehn, who’s extremely fond of a (Glantz), Our greatest of prophets known as Marsh-gas, And Roth, whose cough will put one in a trance. And so, though I could still go on and rhyme And tell of all the members of the class. ’Tis best to stop, as I have used your time No more upon your patience I’ll trespass. Let us now go forth for honors to strive. And place our shoulders to old fortune’s wheel; To reap great glories for this class of '‘five Let be our goal, till death do o’er us steal. Louis E. Newman.

CLASS STATISTICS Who is the first man in the classf Yingling won out after a close race with Betts, who held a close second at the finish. Who is the handsomest man? Eigenrauch and O'Neill are tie for first place. Most of the rest were too modest to enter competition. Who has the broadest smile? Freeman tel’s grin is second only to that of his Satanic majesty; but for a general face breaker, Miller leads off. Who is the easiest mark? According to all statistics at hand, and by his own admission. “Sam Hoade has first honor. Someone had the audacity to say that Litch Society was easy. too. Who is the greatest politician? Bill Bauerle swears by Philadelphia Government. Rapid (?) Transit Company, Schuylkill Punch, etc. What further evidence do we need? Continually scraps with Max about German and American methods. Who is the sportiest? Matthev, fresh from Switzerland, via Paris, has all the requirements to give him the position. Does the high hat and cane act to perfection? Who is the funniest? Clark has first place cinched. No others are within hailing distance. Who is the greasiest grind? The honor place must be divided; Miller, Crandall, Susan and O'Neill are close competitors. Who is the biggest leg puller? i. Irvine; 2. Frecmantel; 3. Chalfin. Who is the biggest bluffer? For an all round hot air bluff, Sullivan is Johnny on the spot. Gan-guillet says there are others. Who is the laziest? Noll crawled in first. McBride was ahead till the last lap, but fell asleep. Nobody else in sight yet. Who is the most religious? Woodford has an angelic expression, but that is misleading. Roth will most likely be our ministerial brother. Who is the ladies' man? There was a grand rush for this honor : but Max Herchenroder won out. He goes out sleighing and riding frequently, and has headquarters at the Bellevue-Stratford. Who would make the best bartender? Newman and Freeman each have marked ability at chewing the rag, so they ought to be successful there. Who is the most cheerful liar? Metchan, Kalb and McKnight have each taken first prize in numerous contests, so it would be unfair to confer the honor on anyone of them alone. What is your favorite drink? i. Schuylkill a la mud; . Extractum bovinum; 3. Scotch High Balls; 4. Beer. Did you ever use a crib? About ninety per cent, of the class solemnly swear. No, which means Yes; while the rest say, “When necessity requires it.” This includes Freeman. Have you ever read the Bible? About all who have reached this distinction are Faber, Fitzgerald, Crandall, McKnight, Reiter and Hoade. Josh Crandall says he is about to commit it verbatim. How often do you go to church? Some go regularly, others occasionally, while a few go when there is nothing else doing. What are your favorite hymns? ‘‘The year of jubilee has come, Return ye ransomed sinners, home.” also “ Tis finished! let the joyful sound Be heard through all the nations round.” REFLECTIONS MY thoughts drift back, like an automobile cutting holes in the atmosphere, to my first meeting with the many fellows it has been my pleasure to associate with during the three years of my college life at Pennsy. The many little funny happenings that have transpired and incidentally the impressions that were conveyed at our first meeting and afterwards furnish food for thought. 1 well remember the first time Metch and 41 yours truly ” coupled grub hooks. He was an unsophisticated, beard-less-looking youth, with light trousers, and a form tall and fair like a smokestack. He told me he came from the West, and never having caught him in a lie, why I believed him. Shortly afterwards he fell in with a “trusty pal named Sandt, who has stuck to him ever since like a porous plaster in fly time. But, by the way, I’ve almost forgotten Bill Hoffman; it took me some days to find his weak points, but at last 1 had him on the mat. Bill is one of those philosophers that like to attend strictly to their own affairs, and after taking quarters on Tenth street, near Locust, he awoke with a dull thud to the realization that the neighborhood is just a trifle boisterous, so much so in fact that about 3 p. m. it assumed a lurid tint. After a three days’ “try out Bill shoo'd, and in fact has been moving pretty much ever since; but then he’s a royal good fellow for all that. The inseparable companions. Fitz and Josh, came from out of the East; they left their 'appy ’omes” three years ago last October, and after trotting cross country' for three days, awoke one morning on the plains of Haddon-field in the Mosquito State. With the exception of a bunch of Bergdoll’s condensed milk and a can of Boston baked, they had not eaten anything during the entire journey. Josh, who has a ”rep for barking like a tree and several other seemingly impossible stunts, soon attracted the attention of a few friendly kine who were hammering the lunch counter in a field next door. “Ye gods of sausage meat, quoth Josh, “I have a thought, ‘To action is the battle cry.’ ” He therewith took his old brown derby, and after extracting the suds from the “grazer, Fitz and he drank deeply of the lacteal fluid, then started through the cornfields for the City of Market Baskets and Brotherly Love. A man who has always impressed me greatly is Mike De Vecchis. Mike” looks the part of a count, and to see him handling the fair ladies in the Clinic is proof enough that he will be there with the strong arm when it comes to a separation of the green goods in practice. Mike was a magnate in the tonsorial line before he started the extraction process, and I am told that the day after Mike matriculated he bundled up all his dirks and cast them into the Schuylkill, so that the sharks could trim their corns and incidentally to shave a few bacteria off the water. Joe Harvey and Hannan have been doing the meal ticket stunt for the past three years. In other words, they have been getting theirs from “Maryland Club” tobacco to the goods given in exchange for the tickets. Save a million tickets, you get a piano. Hannan saved a hundred last week and got a lead pencil; and, by the bye, he lives over on Ninth street in one of those chop stores where you have to sink the sugar in the coffee with a latch key and count the rings on the chicken’s trunk in order to guess its age. Harvey has a susceptibility for the “fair ones; he boarded an uptown car one day not long ago for a trip with a damsel to Sharon Hill, or some old hill, and was getting along famously in the way of a conversation when the car very abruptly halted and Joe was thrown through the front window. “Getting off? queried the conductor. “No! just going through, replied Joe. Hut speaking about McKnight and Holly Bell, really, in my estimation, they are the only all-around sports in the “outfit.” It certainly is a shame to see them side step a large----. Hut what’s the use of giving the poor fellows away. “Liquidation is not a crime, and all of us respond to the command of “Fall in” when anybody floats around the “Diggins” that looks like ready money. Speaking along this particular line, I happened to meander into a little German cafe one evening when I was over in “ Fish Town.” Seated around one of the pinochle tables were Hauer, Herchenroder and the fellow with the lengthy beardlet—his name is so long I can’t even sneeze it. Max had an expansive illumination on his chops and was smoking Bauer’s cigarettes. I stood for an hour or two drinking water (?) and amused myself listening to the topic of conversation. If I remember rightly, the subject dwelt upon the advisability of Home Rule for Ireland. While we were engaged in conversation “Jock Reed strolled in. Now you know there are a great many strong points about Jock; understand I make no reference to anything in particular in this remark, but Betts has often mentioned the fact that as far as water is concerned. Jock loves it like Suzuki does the Russians. We left the bunch in the course of a few hours and started for a three-mile walk. On the way in Jock began to relate his past; he told me he was an elevator boy in one of the rural sleep factories up York State, and that his experience in this particular line had taught him the ups and downs in life, and I believed him. Kalb, Lucas. Mertz and Reiter came from up in Bucks County, the home of sour krout and limburger, where the natives sharpen their pickaxes and stilettoes with one extremity and grasp your hand in hearty welcome with the other; and yet, when it comes to the hour of parting, they will miss each other like a student does his engine when in “ Hock.” My old friend Hamilton, who by the way is often dubbed Ham, is one of the short change artists in the class of ’05. It seems a wonder how he has acclimated himself to the ways of a large city in so short a stay, but then Father Time is a wonder-worker, and his worship has made good. Ham, after graduating some years ago from the University of Stumps over in the town of prohibition called Hoboken, took up the art of onion-raising and for many years tickled the earth with a hoe over on the Heights of Jersey City; but now he is a dentist, pulling teeth instead of weeds. Some of my friends tell me 1 am assuming a clerical appearance. The other day a stranger met me in the suburbs. (If I remember right, I was soliciting alms for the poor; needless to say, I was the charitable institution.) '‘Good morning, your Reverence. Preach in the stone church yonder, I suppose? “No; I don’t. I’m not a preacher.” “ Really, I beg your pardon, Captain. I trust you had a good season. How much oil—?” “Oil! What do you take me for? I'm not a whaler.” “Oh! I beg a thousand pardons, your Excellency. Major-General in the army, nodoubt? MinistcrtoTurkey likely ? Secretary of War, Commissionerof-” “ Fudge! I'm not connected in any way with the government.” “ Bless my life, then who the mischief are you? Where did you come from, and how did you get here?” “ I’m only a private personage, an unassuming stranger from Camden.” “No! Not a missionary, not a whaler, not a member of Congress? Not even Secretary of the Navy? Oh, heavens! it is too blissful. Alas! I do but dream, and yet that noble, honest countenance; those oblique, ingenuous eyes; that massive head, incapable of—of anything. Your hand, give me your hand; bright waif, excuse these tears. For sixteen years I have yearned for a moment like this, and ” Here his feelings were too much for him, and he swooned away. I pitied this poor creature from the bottomof my heart. I was deeply moved. I shed a few tears on him and kissed him for his mother. I then took what small change he had and “shoved.” In conclusion, I wish I could nail all the fellows to the signboard, hut Shep and his trusty crew desire the space, so it is up to me to imprint upon all of your brows the kiss of parting and with tears hanging round my optics as large as horse chestnuts to say adieu, me trusty friends, adieu.

As I lay there, anxious, thinking, I fell asleep and dreamed a dream; My tired brain was mixed and reeling, For this is what to me did seem: Roe went up to heaven’s portals With a “bug” book in his hand, Could not join the bright immortals, There are no bugs” in glory-land. With the angel at the gateway He did talk and beg and plead; But the guardian called St. Peter, And of Roe took little heed. Peter seemed to stop and ponder. Then solemnly he spake and slow; Cast it from you, cast it yonder, To the burning lake below.” With a look that bars description The good doctor threw it down And relieved of that great burden Entered into rest alone. Down it fell. The shrieks rose higher, For the sinners saw once more. Sizzling in that leaping fire Things they’d sweltered on before. Then I woke; the scene had left me, But across my weary mind Flitted misty recollections Of the things I’d seen and heard. One impressed me more than any: “ Bugs—you must forget them all, And be this your constant mentor, They are what caused Satan’s fall. Would you know the moral, reader, Of this dream so dark and drear? It is this: O, friend, remember, Don’t drink too much lager beer.

And an aseptic nurse, with aseptic hands, Gave an aseptic bath, put on aseptic bands. From aseptic bottles, with aseptic nips, Babe sucked aseptic milk with aseptic lips.
