X unloading iliis volume on the unsuspecting public 'lie Editors wish it to lie distinctly understood that, they will, in no way. be held responsible for what, may l c herein contained. Generally speaking, college annuals are not specimens of standard writings. If this were the ease it is probable that writers of such would turn their attention to other Holds, less glorious per- haps, but certainly more remunerative. Neither are college annuals models of English Grammar. Usually they contain English as it is spoke.” If you should lx? interested in what we present we will lx? gratified; if angry, we will he amused. Gentle reader, have yon ever impaled a hug on a pin and watched it wiggle. It is a fund of amusement for all- -except the bug. We have used a pen for the same purpose. Perchance our witticisms may prove dull, our epics humorous or our jokes insipid. If you find such to be the case, we will be very, very, sorry —for you. ri in perusing these pages, your lip should curl scornfully, close the volume until you are in a more forgiving frame of mind, for remember that ancient Sisyphus rolling his rock up a hill, had not a more unenviable experience than we—the Editors of the Echoes” for the year 1001. THE PRESIDENT. K-VJLTCKY STATK ( 'OLLEG 1), or, moro })roperlv shaking, The Univ rsitv of Kentucky,” owes its existence today not-only to the Land Grant Act of Congress in the year 1S02, or to the sporadic generosity of the General Assembly in succeeding hut to the untiring efforts and shrewdness of dames K. Patterson. There are lew men among College presidents today who could have so ably performed such work as ho has done since the birth of the institution, forty-four years ago. There are College Presidents noted for their erudition, others valued for their business acumen, hut few there are who possess both. Of these few, Pres- ident Patterson is one of the most prominent, A man of deep learning, yet possessing a vast knowledge of current affairs; a man of letters, yet a master of commercial technique: he has steadily lifted the plane of college education in Kentucky, until the university of which he is president stands far above other educational institutions in the state and among the foremost in the South.

Neville, the Nestor of the Faculty, ever since its establishment in 1SS0. This Department is, of all the Departments of the Col- lege, the most liberally provided for in the apportionment of the. appropriations made by the General Assembly, despite the strenuous kicks’' of Little Paul,” who is always, seemingly, of the opinion that his own Department is sadly neg- lected in the distribution of the College monies. The equipment of this most generously supplied Classical Department consists of a large map of Europe, which adorns one of the walls of the room of the Professor of English, and glories in being the only possession of its owner. The courses of study offered extend over the subjects of Greek, Latin, English, the Modern Languages, Mathematics, etc., and are two in number, the one with Greek and Latin and the other, with Knglish as jts major study, graduates in both receiving the degree of Bachelor of Arts. The Professor of Greek and Latin is Dean Neville, well known to all as Old Jack, who. seated on his throne of glory, surveys with eagle’s glance the unknowing faces of his unsophisticated students and tries to inculcate in them a desire for a knowledge of the deeds of ancient heroes in those halcyon days, “When yet the Muse was young, When Homer swept the lyre and Mars sung.” Professor Neville also teaches Senior History, and finds time to exalt the doings of the great, world characters, between frequent ejaculations of Gen- tlemen, I must have quiet.” But to pass on to the course in English. Here wc find A. St. Clair Mac- kenzie, the magnanimous, the invincible, the unspeakable Sandy,” who holds at finger’s tip a knowledge of the masterpieces of the Old Country, and in- 37 struct the guileless youth in the rudiments of the language of the olden times when his Saxon forefathers roamed the primeval forests of ancient Britain. Sc great i- the sphere wherein with majestic tread lie moves, that, not eonfin- ing himself to the more SU| er6cial task of the mere teaeliing of English, lie delves into the mysteries of the most exacting philosophy, and digs therefrom the radiant gems of Logie, Metaphysics and Ethics, with which to bedeck the less brilliant genius of his students, who, unworthy followers that they are of the great “Collegit Philosophus,' are not so fortunately blessed with a long- ing for the divine pleasures of intellectual pursuits. We shall now consider the Department of Modern Languages, o'er which prevails the all-pervading spirit � f the indomitable Dutchman, PaulWemicke. Xo devotee who has entered within the classic portals � f this temple dedi- cated to the goddess, if such there he, of Modern Lore, and knelt ljefore her sacred shrine, lias ever retraced his steps without having become imbued with an all-conquering passion for a knowledge of French and German. The only possible objection which one could hud to the methods pursued in this Depart- ment is that its head is unnecessarily harsh on the skippers. But then, skipping is a thing of such rare occurrence at State College that the penalties indicted for it. hv Professor Wernicke must need be few, even if severe. The course in Political Economy extends over a period of the vast dura- tion of two months, and instruction in it is upon such a broad and extensive scale that anyone who pays the slightest attention to his work cannot but come from under the powerful influences that it exerts over him as the most prac- tical of financiers. ‘‘Old Pat, the instructor in this most, difficult and. as it is here taught, far-reaching science, is too well known to need introduction. 38 TIhie Sciemittiffic Deparftmeir IL T1IF Doan of this Department, which is the oh lest in the College, is Prot. James G. White, who occupies the chair of Mathematics and Astronomy. The Scientific Department comprises seven courses, viz.: Chemistry. Physics, Geology, Zoology, Anatomy and Physiology, Botany and Entomology, all of which lead to the degree of Bachelor of Science. At the head of the course in Chemistry is Professor Joseph II. Kastle, the inimitable Little Jo ' to whom is assigned the task of instilling in the minds of Kentucky's youth a knowledge of the elements, and who, by his oft- repeated explanation of Goodness, gracious, sakes alive! and his time-honor- ed comparison of the intellect, of his students to that of a wooden man has roused the latent genius of many a shiftless cadet, and made a distinguished chemist of him who. but for his efforts, would have died unwept, unhonored and unsung. In the basement, of the Main Building is a retreat familiarly known to the students as Faker's Best. Here the imperturbable Peter Pence holds forth and endeavors to hammer into the brain of the weary student, from Freshman to Senior, the rudiments of Physics. Tis hither that the luckless youth, detected by a more wary instructor in the forbidden practice of “faking,” comes to retrieve himself and win back the lost, laurels by taking advantage of the excellent, opportunities offered him for “doing the professor. He who would geologist, or zoologist be should not fail to see Professor Arthur M. Miller, who, in an unspeakably fascinating manner, expounds to the charmed listener the theories of the origin of world and man. By a prosecu- tion of the studies of Geology and Zoology we arc led to throw aside our nar- row views and to comprehensively grasp ideas truly scientific. By these all- attracting subjects are wc reminded of the time when primitive bird, in Ptero- dactyl feathers clad, its joyous flight did wing unto celestial sky, and when 39 ii: princely dignity, the fabled Zenglodon sat basking in tbe sunshine of a pre- historic «-limate, rending rbe gentle breezes with its vociferous veils, inter- rupi ing the cjuiet meditations of its unhappy neighbors, and destined to dis- turb thereafter the soothing slumbers and jHaiceful dreams of the unfortunate geological and zoological student of later days. The lover of nature and of nature’s flowers we would refer to Professor C . . .Mathews, who will lead him into botanical researches of unfathomable depth. It is a generally conceded fact that the course in Botany is the most difficult in the College, and that. it. requires more concentrated work to acquire proficiency in it than in any other. Consequently, we would advise none but those most studiously inclined to seek a diploma through its channels. Hut. in speaking of difficult subjects we should not omit Entomology, tin- subject which Professor II. Garman, a naturalist of national reputation, elucidates, do him, enamored of the absorbing pursuit, of chasing the flitting imttcrfly o’er field on summer's day, we would by all means give tbe advice to become a votary of the exacting science of “Bugology.” The latest addition to the Scientific Department is the course in Anatomy and Physiology under the supervision of l)r. J. V. Pryor, surgeon of the battalion. Here the prospective medical student will find work that will he of incalculable benefit to him in after years, from the mounting of the skele- tons of departed steeds to an intricate study of man’s frail form.” In closing this brief synopsis of si most valuable Department, we should not fail to mention again Professor While, the insuperable “Jimmie” ex- pounder of the principles of .Mathematics and Astronomy, in whose line it is to perform all the achievements from fizzing out” the incipient Frenchman in trig and solid, to instructing the all-knowing Senior in the celestial science of star-gazing. traT3 Tlhe Departmeimt of Civil Till'. Department of Civil Engineering, of which Professor John P. Brooks is Dean, was established in 1887. The equipment of this Department is the most elaborate in the College, it being supplied with all the apparatus that it is allowed for quarters the abundant space of almost a whole five by ten room in Mechanical Hall, the rest of the room which was thought too large for the needs of such an unimportant department having been in- vaded by one of the instructors in the Mechanical Department .Notwith- standing that he has been so amply provided for in the allotment of room, the Professor of Civil Engineering is seriously considering the proposition of repairing to the roof of the building in which he occupies so much space, and establishing thereon a first-class roof garden in which to conduct his school. Imagine John P.” exposed to the balmy breezes of College Hill, sitting on top of Mechanical Hall instructing his knowing pupils under much the same airy conditions as did the stoic Zeno in his colonnade at Athens. But let us not digress so far from the subject at hand. Rather let us turn and consider the trials and tribulations of the prospective Civil Engineer. When he enters the school in which lie is destined to spend four weary years, instead of being given the more enlightening work of the wood-shop, the lot of his more fortunate mechanical brother, he is assigned the demeaning task of free-hand drawing as preparatory to the work in mapping that he will have to do in wiser years, that is. when he lias acquired the so-called sapience of a Sophomore. But we should not throw discredit, upon the Sophomore, for it is he who, in the Department of Civil Engineering, takes unto himself sur- veyors chain and sets out to determine not only the boundaries of adjacent land, but the measurements of the whole conceivable universe as well, so great needed bv an up-to-date School of Civil Engineering, not to mention the fact 11 is his unfailing confidence in his sophotnoric ability to do anything and every- thing to the highest degree of excellence. The same difficulties, in the shape of more advanced mathematics, that have perplexed the tireless Mechanical, now beset the Civil, too, and, like the former, he is forced to retire from Col- lege for a breathing spell in order to recuperate and be able the better to bear the burdens of the coming year. When once more lie turns his face towards the fondly-cherished scenes of his exacting, but, in the sentiments of the average student, dearly beloved labors, be finds himself confronted, at the beginning of his junior year, with many harassing difficulties that, must need l� e surmounted, and forthwith sets himself to learning the art of “bridging'-' olxstrueting streams that, are far from fordable, and of such great width that, it requires not only his strictest atten- tion now. but the earnest endeavors of a hard-spent, senior year to span them. The woes of a Civil are many; lie thinks his own the most unbearable of all existences; lie lias more work to do than anyliody else, not excepting the Classical, but his troubles over, his streams now spanned, lie can stand upon the “bridges” of his own constructing, the works of his own handicraft and say with eminent satisfaction, “These are my beloved labors in which 1 am well pleased; behold ye them.” Tlhe Department of Meclhvamcal THIS Department, which was established in 1801. has at its head Profes- sor F. Paul Anderson, better known as “Little Paul,” who has been un- ite succeeded in bringing it. to the front that it now ranks as one of the best schools of its kind in the country, although it has been somewhat slighted ing given to the other Departments, notably the Classical, and only a small portion finding its way into the coffers of the “Chief of Boiler Greasers. Yet, notwithstanding its penury, it has gradually increased its facilities until lege, occupying practically all of one building, from which it has almost en- tirely ejected its co-occupants, the Civil Kngineers. When the wisdom-seeking youth, fresh from the glories of his high school victories, enters the Freshman class f this far-famed school of practical engi- thc weary hours of a whole long year he works and toils, ever advancing, ever progressing, until he has reached that acme of a Freshman’s desires—the skill of a first-rate carpenter. But lo and behold! when he has satisfied his instructor that he knows pretty much everything about the joiners art, and has now doffed the squalid garments of Freshman incipience to don the princely garb of sophomoric wis- dom, he finds that he lias freed himself from the drudgeries of the wood-shop bnlv to encounter tlu; still more servile labors of the foiling blacksmith and to pass the fleeting hours of the pleasant autumn day ’mid the ringing of the tiring in his efforts to make it the foremost in the College. And so well has in the division of the money appropriated to the College, almost all of it be- it now holds a fairly respectable position among the Departments of the Col- neering, he i put to work in the wood shop. Think of it—a wood-shop— fitting place for one who has come on a royal quest, for learning! Here through hammers as they resound upon the oft-struck anvil. After he has reached such. a degree of proficiency in the smith's art. that he may shoe a horse to the great- est perfection, he is relieved of the tedium of the forge shop, and the monotony of his present existence is broken by a dose of higher mathematics, consisting of a hvperdermic injection of Analytical and Descriptive Geometry and Cal- culus. After the severe treatment, that he must necessarily undergo as an allevia- tion of the ills resulting from the dose administered, he is, to be sure, in «iced of the rest cure for the following summer, after which he .returns in the fall to enter upon the duties of his .Junior year. Here he finds Johnnie Faig facing him with the insurmountable obstacles of Strength of Materials and Ma- chine Design. But these are not a circumstance to the many other excrucia- ting tortures that must be endured and overcome before he can return once more to his native heath, there to prepare for the final struggle to be sustained during his last year at. the College that he hopes soon to make his Alma Mater. Passing over the lessor evils that result from a concentrated study of Steam Boilers and Valve Gears, the most objectionable feature that he has to put up with in his Senior year is that he is compelled '. ■ debase himself by associating, ii: History and Political Economy, with the intellectually inferior Classical and Scientific students. The influences that, he is under as a result of being in close touch with these less cultured beings, are of the most degrad- ing kind, and it is well that they are deferred until near the close of his Col- lege career when his we 11-developed judgment enables him to discriminate wisely. After these two difficult subjects of History and Political Economy have been mastered, all is easy sailing with the expert mechanic and he is ready to receive his diploma and “trust his frail bark to the ruthless sea,” an accom- plished and dexterous engineer. 44 TIh,e Department!; of Mining THIS, the youngest Department of the College; was established in 1901 under the direction of .Professor C. J. X or wood, State Inspector of -Mines, as Dean. Since this time its progress has been well nig}� phenomenal, it having grown by leaps and bounds until it now has the enormous enrollment of live students. Not only this, it actually has one whole Senior who expects to complete his coin-se this year, and thus gain the distinction of being the lirst graduate of a Mining School that is destined lo become famous through- out the entire civilized world. In this matter of a miraculously high number of graduates, it seems ns though it. were trying to vie with the Agricultural Department, and the latter had better look to its laurels if it docs not wish to he outstripped in the race for producing the greatest number of high-type geniuses of all the departments of the College. The mining student, who enters the Freshman class has to go through all those charming experiences of the wood shop, etc., that are so characteristic of the fascinating life of the Mechanical Engineer during his first year, and not eve� � after lie has readied the sagacious state of a Sophomore is lie entirely deprived of the pleasures incident to that existence, particularly those ol' the forge shop. However, after he has crossed the almost impassable stream that separates t.lie lower classman from the upper, he begins to diverge from the move purely mechanical course that he has been pursuing and to confine him- self more and more to the science of penetrating the bowels of the earth, to collect therefrom the princely stores that lie beneath the fertile soil above. Tf he does not meet with the mishap of falling down some shaft, that he is engaged in sinking and of having himself reduced to a jellied condition upon the floor of a subterranean passage, he will gradually find himself Incoming more and more expert in his underground labors, and finally after many a Irving hour spent in the driving of tunnel and gangway, attain to the long- desired elevation to seniority. When he has reached this enviable goal his mind is distracted from his otherwise noxious task of encroaching upon Pluto’s domains, by an antidote «•«insisting of a mixture of History and Political Economy, subjects to which he is required to give practically all of his attention, and that demand such mental concentration that he is actually obliged to spend five minutes a day on them, moments reluctantly snatched from the precious time devoted to his beloved vocation of pit-digging. Yet, despite the restraining check put upon him by these studies, he finds a little time, at least, to give to the consideration of the different ores, and by close application to bis work is enabled in the course of two or three months to distinguish gold from silver—an accomplishment which can be obtained, however, only by the most assiduous study, and then with the greatest difficulty. As soon as lie has perfected himself in this art he is deemed worthy oi the degree of Bachelor of Mining Engineering, and after gracing the rostrum with his dignified appearance on Commencement day, goes forth to teach the blind how to enrich themselves by exploring the hidden regions of Mother Earth and extracting from them the wealth of countless ages. Tlhe Departmemitt of AgrictaRtuire. THE Department of Agriculture, at tho head f which is Professor C. W. Mathews, embraces a ppurse of study which is very similar to some of tho courses of the Scientific Department, but which is not considered one of them, as its graduates receive the distinct degree of Bachelor of Agriculture. To the rustic youth who has shaken from his feet the dust of the country highway, o’er which he has trudged long and wearily on the “royal road to learning,” the advantages of this Department, seem manifold. As he pauses to take one farewell look in the direction of his distant home, and then starts slowly up the path that leads to the hallowed grounds dedicated to Ceres, the patron goddess of the Agricultural School, there come before him wild visions of his future career as a successful tiller of the soil and the owner of an ideal rural estate. But what is his disappointment, nay, say his disgust, when, in- stead of being instructed forthwith in the noble arts of Demeter, he is assigned the ignominious task of milking cows and churning cream at the College farm! By the time that he has satisfied his superiors that he is an adept in this bus- iness, he is now prepared to apply himself to the still more diliieult and exact- ing labor of feeding and ministering to the needs of various herds of cattle that graze upon the verdant meadows of the neighboring Bluegrass fhrms and of relieving the wants of the many lloeks of sportive lambs that, gambol o'er the tufted greens hard by. Vet, notwithstanding the seeming insignificance of these occupations, rather puerile in the eves of the average farmer’s boy. be lias the underlying princi- ples of practical farming firmly rooted in him by them and is ready to enter into the more arduous struggles that lie before him, such as the sowing of grass seed, the planting of trees and the setting out of flowers. Those who are able to endure the cares and anxieties of this rigid life are few in number, tho rest being forced to return home broken in mind and body long before they have completed their course—a circumstance to which, no doubt, is due the 47 fact that the- Agricultural Department graduates only about one man a year. If its Dean could only be induced to have more consideration for the mental and physical welfare of his hard-worked students and be prevailed upon to abridge his course which should, as it now is, extend over a period of eight years, instead of being confined, with its bulk of mind-racking subjects, to the short time of four—if lie could be persuaded to effect these much-needed re- forms in the interest of his care-worn followers, it is possible that these over- zealous votaries of Agriculture might not become so easily disheartened, and that by dint of hard work this Department might succeed, in the course of time, ir. turning out at least, two graduates yearly. But should this be beyond the hounds of possibility the State ought to feel well repaid for the expenditure made upon it, by having it let loose upon an unsuspecting community even one of these ingenious agriculturists, versed in all the arts of husbandry and possessed of the incalculably valuable gift of knowing how to apply them just a little better than even the most experienced and most practical of time-tried farmers. 4 TIh.e Pepartameinitt of Pedagogy� ESTABLISHED in IS80, this Department has steadily grown under the able management of its Dean, Professor K. X. Roark, until it has come to be considered a first-raie Normal School, a very good one of its kind, that is, if its graduate desires to while away his life in a country schoolhousc which the wintry gales shake with their rending blasts, while the smoke ascending for its exit through a hole cut in the roof and the homespun-clad children, seated on meat blocks fetched from neighboring farms, and driving away at their irksome tasks, lend fantastic enchantment to the scene. The life of the rural school teacher is indeed a most fascinating one, and if such be your in- tended vocation you could not. do better than enter this world-famous Normal Department wherein revolves the intellectual grindstone on which is whetted the brilliant gems of Kentucky's pedagogic-ally inclined youth. The Department of Pedagogy was recently made the beneficiary of an appropriation of $25,000 by the Legislature, the bill providing for it, however, having been afterwards vetoed by the Governor. Now, everybody is always unqualifiedly over-joyed to see the College receive an appropriation, no matter into which Department it may go, and was exceedingly sorry to see the bill vetoed. Furthermore it is generally conceded, though not, to be sure, in the same unqualified manner, that- this soul-inspiring Department, is the most important of the College. But is it so absolutely necessary for its highest welfare to he regarded, that this, should be done to the utter neglect of its far less deserving end. as we will admit, from a standpoint, of general culture, far inferior sister Department—that of the classics? But. we should not knock, for the Classical Department is amply provided for, in that it is allowed the space of four completely (?) equipped rooms in the College building. In addition to the regular four years’ course which is provided by the Normal Department, leading to the degree of Bachelor of Pedagogy, there are two sub-Freshman courses, matriculates in which arc called “Normal students 40 for the Suite Certificate' ami '■•Normal students for the County Certificate,” hut who, in common parlance, would be termed “mountaineers.” The influx of students into these two indispensable schools occurs, for the most part, after the Christmas holidays every year, when ihcso seekers after truth sweep down upon the unfortified precincts of the College, as Attila’s horde of barbaric linns upon rhe sacred temples of imperial Koine. But it would take more than the holy persuasions of a Ixjo I to turn aside the consuming fury of the rampant •' N’ormalites.” The Normal students who have the discretion to take the four years’ coursr- are remunerated by instruction in some of the best subjects that are in- cluded in the Classical and Scientific courses, and thus lay the foundation stones upon which they may afterwards build up a good education, should they care to pursue their studies further, and not he content merely to spend the rest of their days in trying to inculcate a love of wisdom in the irreceptive minds of the country lad and lassie at the cross-roads school. Vet, should the training of the youth and the uplifting of the ignoble masses be the life work of the graduate of the Normal «School, all praise be to him who has devoted and consecrated himself to the ever-commondablo task of ennobling the aims of his fellow-men and of raising them from the depths of im percept ion to a contemplation of the True, the Beautiful and the Good. Tlhie Class 9 IT was the seventh day of September in the nineteen hundredth year of our Lon! when our hero loft his country home with his father's hard-earned cash n«i l ’lie memory of his mother's farewell, to seek an education at ’he State College :' Kentucky. He had somewhere seen a picture of the campus in which the lake was in the foreground. When he came strolling out Limestone and saw in the place of the lake a marsh through which a tiny stream wound its way, he said to iiis companion, another youth from another country home, Why. they've let the campus run out. Some one showed’ him the wav to the sanctum sanctorum of Pres. .7as. K. Patterson whom he soon learned to know hv the more familiar title of “Old Pat.” The first week was occupied in what seemed to him an endless confusion of paper slips and other such things that he was at a loss to understand. After he had carried around about a dozen he was fairly familiar with the location of the college buildings and the whereabouts of his professors, and upon meditation he came to the conclusion that it must have been intended for this purpose. Will he ever forget that first week? One night a squad of men came to his room and ordered him to prepare for a physical examination. After he had cone through this trying ordeal he was placed on guard until the wee small hours of the morning. Put he managed to live through it all. and came out a sadder but a wiser youth. L« us pass over the next four years and take a look at him on Commencement day. Mis mother and father are there wondering how it has come about that their timid, loose-jointed, ignorant boy could over l econu} the calm, dignified young man who stands before that audience, composed’ of the elite of the Blue Grass, and in honeyed accents expounds on the immortality of the soul. This is his gala day. For four years he has strived through difficulties and dangers and toils with this as the goal of his ambition. He looks with scorn upon the lower classmen, whom he regards as beings far inferior to himself. Tie swells with pride when hi' remembers the luxuriant growth of hurnsides he grew in the short time of two months, and to himself he savs. Yea. verilv. I am a MAX.” Let us leave him here at the height of his glory. A glance into the future will reveal more toils and troubles, the outcome of which is doubtful. Today all is well. I'.vcry member of the class of '04 lias gone through some experience similar to this. Xo class ever went through it with more flying colors. So we will drink a hearty health to the class of ’04. and to their families, both present and future, and may they all live long and prosper. 52 Tlhe Class of '05 THE year ‘01, remarkable for it? many great world happenings, was made more remarkable by the fact that there was ushered onto the scene of activity at Kentucky State College the great and glorious class t ’05. It. soon became evident that our bunch” was the real tiling. During that year we de- feated the Sophs. at both foot ball and base ball, and many there were who thought our teams were in every resj ect superior to the ‘varsity teams. Since then, no class lius had the temerity to meet us on either the gridiron or diamond. Before even the November winds had carried the brown leaves to their wintry beds, we became the pride of our professors, the envy of upper classmen and the pets of the community in general. In our sophomore year we kept up cur heartwinning tactics, and toward the latter part of the year did a stunt unprecedented, that drew forth the admiration and applause of our friends and enemies alike. To prove our greatness, it would be unnecessary for us to enumerate the many honors we have held and are holding, and have yet to hold. We do not need' proof of our glory—none of our class deny it. Since the glorious sun of 05 has arisen above the college horizon, there has been in our ranks two captains of base ball, a manager of foot ball team, the same representative twice in the oratorical contest, and many other honors too numerous to mention. Not only in athletics, but in every other phase of college life, are we prom- inent. In the class-room we dazzle the Profs, with our great amount of erudition, and they do not hope to ever have another class that will, in any respect, approach ■‘05. In fact, we feel sure that the present excellent standing i' Kentucky State as an engineering school was brought about by the sole agency of our class. When we were freshmen, our military bearing made a deep and lasting im- pression upon the commandant, and he then and there issued an edict that hence- forth the Juniors should hold the sole exclusive right to the commissions. This year his hopes were realized', and the commissioned officers are beyond a poet’s wildest dreams. Our class has more class spirit than any other class in college. This h caused by our sticking so closely together. While we have a few brilliant 'tars, yet the entire class maintains a high standard of morality and scholarship. It has been nearly three years since we started up this hill of learning, and during that time, those tics that make college life so dear to us all have been formed. We are nearing the summit, and we shall soon take up the mantles the seniors will have dropj ed, and go on. with no fear of not being able to do more honor to ourselves and' to the college than any other class has ever done. 54 Tlhie Class EV IvH V'l'l 11Nc5 had a beginning, and so with the present Sophomore (’lass. Some of its members, i v laborious efforts and slow progress, finally arosj above the confines of Prepdom and entered the College. The remainder bailed from a 1 smts of places ami all sorts of schools, and it was this heterogeneous mass of human matter whleh constituted the Freshman Class. As Freshmen, they did not maintain that standard of learning and action which generally characterizes these lightsome creatures. During this embryo period of their ex- istence. many after supper hours were consumed y the sieepv cadets in a vain endeavor to master a I the technique of military science. Private instructions were given, and especial attention paid to the arduous task of guard duty, and, a.- they wandered to ain't' fro in the lengthening shadows of the sombre, vine- covered buildings, they marveled at the learning to be obtained within those walls, and as their gaze swept the broad expanse of the heavens, and their minds 'h airy heights ascended, they dreamed of the time when they would attain the proud dignity � f a Senior, and. having quaffed the golden goblet of knowledge, no mysteries would remain unsolved. Hut. alas, the realization of their dreams i; as far away as the still's which aroused them. Though many things might have been learned, they were neglected: and the chief characteristic of this class, evidently, is their inability to altsorb wisdom. However, the rigors of the vear passed, and also some of the students. These, augmented by a few new arrivals, constitute the present Sophomore Class, such as i: i . They still busy themselves occupying all the surplus space and making all the noise possible. No longer imbued with a sense of duty, they are now capable of evading the watchful eyes of their superiors, and are thus enabled to skip Chapel. In class they present “n. ps.” with impunity, and with an amount of gusto which would do credit to i Senior. Home of the cadets have even tin temerity to cut drill, in evidence •’ which they may be seen strolling with a gnu on their shoulders. All the laborious efforts of their learned instructors having been in vain. it. would seem to indicate that the physical law—“for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction”— has. at least in one ease, been disproven. Though many word's of wisdom arc constantly bombarding their auricular oritices and clamoring for entrance, their craniums still remain perf.vt vacuums. Sad though it is, the year 100«� will wit- ness no graduation exercises, with all its accompanying festivities. In lieu of this annual event, the Faculty has decided to bury the remains of the Class of '•Hi. and has already appointed a committee to compose a suitable epitaph. Per- haps in after years some gallant cadet or tender maid strolling by the moss- covered mound may read' the time-worn record and shed a sympathetic tear in memory of the pathetic demise of the Class of ’in;. r.o TIhe Class of SQ7 F. U back in the history of civilization, ere man had reached the stage of consenting to confine himself in the small space enclosed by four walls, many men were recognized as Fresh. Thus we see that this idea, has descended from generation to generation, until at last it has found a resting place within the sacred precincts of college life. So it has come to pass that the youngest and most unsophisticated of our members are designated by the name Freshman. Although the history of the name stretches through such long vistas of time, yet the history of the class is very brief. There arose, spontaneously, on the lfith cay of .September, in the year 1904. a body of students, who were immediately christened Freshmen, and they were henceforth destined to suffer all the trials and agonies incident to that stage of their scholastic career. As they approached the college in their noisy fashion, they little knew the strange feelings which they were, so soon to experience, but when the gate was reached the noise died away, and, save for the ripple of the waters, all was still. The sound of their own footsteps awakened a new terror within them, and they looked longingly over the chains at the green sward, in which they fain would muffle the sound. After much halting and many furtive glances cast over their shoulders, they finally reached the Main Building. Again they hesitate, and the halt is more perceptible now, but when a hasty examination revealed no human being, their courage became slightly augmented, and they entered. Unfortunately they were not prepared for the sight which met their gaze. Instead of silent, empty halls, they saw a motley, clamorous crowd, ami' found themselves jostled along by the ever moving multitude. After many blunders and much trembling and anxiety, they were at last classified, and presented themselves in their various classes, there to undergo another series of tortures. Eight weary months have passed in slow succession, each bringing with it its quota of troubles. Each morning they may he seen plodding slowly from class t class, their eves heavy from the long vigils they have kept, the careworn lines growing deeper hour by hour. Failure after failure has been met, and 'fizz outs tread’ so closely on one another’s heels that now meeting a new professor is synonymous with ignominious defeat. Spring !ms arrived, and all save these are revivified: but even the joys of this season fail to cause an answering smile to illuminate their sad countenances. Some more potent force must operate to awaken their latent memory, and they go drearily on. Unless some fairy kindly intervenes, we fear gray streaks will soon be found mingling with their darker tresses, and canes adopted as a necessity. Having thus far followed the vicissitudes of their fortune, let us draw the mantle of charity around the faults and follies of these, our youthful brothers, and consign them to the lender care and mercies of the august Faculty, to be disposed of by them as they see fit.

Jones “She Pat, She Pat, Walter K., Fizz out. Fizz out. Every day.” AS one who is about to bid farewell to his beloved Ahua Mater and un- furl his sails upon life’s turbulent sea, pauses to cast one parting glance at 'lie incidents of a happy college life, there comes into his mine sweet and lasting memories of the days, when as a guileless “prep, he was guided by the paternal hand of “She Pat. These were the blissful moments of his college career when, free from the harassing vexations that attended his later years, he enjoyed the true happiness of a contented life, unalloyed with the annoying misfortunes with which his progress in the higher classes was beset. Onward, onward, ever advancing, never ( ?) “fizzing,” he moved, encouraged always by the scholarly influences that pervaded every nook and cranny of prepdom, and at last, with many a longing regret, left behind the fond abodes of the “prepium magister,” to approach the seats of the learned preceptors above. The course in the academy is supposed to cover a period of two years, but so enamored of its alluring charms is the average disciple of this world- 59 renowned school, that, the two years finished, he is unwilling to give up the enticing pleasures that attract him on all sides, and is able to draw himself away from them only after the concentrated efforts of two years more. This does not. result from his being unable to reap;ire proficiency enough in his studies i« satisfy the standard held up by ‘‘She Pat”—for it is a well-known fact that this k'novolent instructor desires to pass, on the slightest provocation, the greatest number possible but it is occasioned by the student’s love for the in- spiring scenes about him—a love so consuming that it even causes him to go to the extreme of voluntarily ‘‘fizzing out,” in order to avoid the baneful con- sequences of having to depart forever from the pleasing grottoes of “Professor Walter’s” sacred vale. And this is not surprising, for the privileges that a “prep” enjoys are enough to make him loath ro forego them, and enter upon the confining duties of a freshman’s lire. Yet there are one or two a year so inappreciative of the favors conferred upon them, as to accomplish the rare and unpraiseworthy feat of passing out; of the academy, and to “delight in saying, ‘Yale, Shepatiee, vale.’ ” Put the majority are more considerate of the feelings of their devoted master, and are imbued with a true sense of just grati- tude that compels them to abide with him. Tlfoe Military „ For wo laikc hi in from the in widow or tin- plow.” ON F. of i ho primary objects for which these land gram colleges of the United States were organized was to give instruction in the military regulations of army, and to practice discipline under these regulations, conforming nearly as possible to that of the regular establishment. 'That this instruction is given and discipline practiced, there is no doubt in the minds of the members of the present senior class. Indeed, we doubt if there is any other college of order in the country, living up to the spirit and the letter of the law concerning this special feature, unite so well as the State College of Kentucky. The instruction in itself is not so entrancing, hut. the manner in winch it. is given is truly fascinating. For three long years we have been “held up ’ at the fifth hour—between one and two o’clock—and taught the noble profession of arms. It consists in stepping about over the campus to the cadence of about one hundred and twenty per minute. During which time the cadet is perfectly at ease, except that, lie must keep his shoulders square and falling equally, arms and hands swinging naturally, but not more than three inches on each side of the scam in the trousers; head erect, chin drawn in without, constraint; and step just thirty inches, one hundred and twenty times every minute. Tf there is anything more delightful than this it is being burned at the stake by a slow fire. As one can easily imagine this is splendid physical training; it not only causes the “rich red blood to course through the apathetic veins and arteries,! but leaves the cadet in a most, poetic frame of mind’. He can think of more beautiful things to sav—and generally says them—expressing himself in language clearer, more forcible, and to the point, than at any other period of the day. Thus the mental as well as the physical powers are developed. Some who read these pages will, no doubt, think any college boy could, in a comparatively short time, reach the highest degree of proficiency, but not so. Every year a large mimlier of new comers are not used to level ground and they must be taught rudiments of walking over again : the others are not used’ to hilly ground and must undergo a similar treatment. The State College campus seems � possess a very peculiar topography for the new men. It is too level for the mountain boys and too hilly for the others. But by dint of lmrd work and much friction the “raw recruit is. before many moons, developed into a most conspicuous cadet. 62 Ho can take the regulation step and keep it until further order , and execute the manual of arms with all the ease and grace of an old and tried veteran. Finally, he becomes so well pleased with his progress he must needs do a fancy step or two, and hence the habit of skipping'’ creeps into his military career. This af- fords an opportunity for a full and complete knowledge of things military. The offender is brought before a military court composed of the senior ollicers from the junior class, and to lind a more dignified body one must go lievond an officers court martial or council of war. Wc know whereof we speak and who will dare question our right to criticise? For his misdemeanor the cadet is allowed to walk a number of hours on the commandant’s avenue, which is to allow time for thought and deep letleetion upon his pernicious conduct. ’Tis a rough and rugged road, but it must he traveled. The present senior class will testify to the fact that it leads to higher and letter things, for now wc walk the dizzy heights with never a faltering step. Many are the golden hours we have lost trodding the lonesome grit of the ‘ King’s High- way.” Ah. we can imagine things worse—but not much. But to he serious for once wc must admit that discipline in the military department is as indispensable ns the drills. Somebody must lie disciplined: the students demand it: if they arc not the disciplined, then they Income disciplina- rians. This phase of the military reached its highest point in the history of the class when we were Fresi’.men. Under William 'I'. Carpenter we were the mast disciplined set tlmt ever wore the cadet gray. In those days we were not even allowed to smile sweetly during the fifth hours, and that was a positive hardship. The year following we changed from the disciplined to the most rigid disciplinarians. Our methods were so very unpopular that our commandant removed himself from the scene of action, giving for his excuse that he was going home and run for the presidency. In the first case wc cannot bring ourselves to believe that our Commandant Carpenter was the hard-hearted rascal we used to think. Whatever else may be said of him, one thing is certain: he created and maintained a military atmosphere around these parts, and with all his faults we love him still, for he was not only true to the stars and stripes, but loyal to the blue and white. Our present commandant. Ca.pt. fleo. L. Byroade, of the United States Army, came fresh from the battlefields of the Orient after having served in Cuba, at Santiago and El Caney. He has won distinction upon battlefields of two hem- ispheres and an everlasting place in all of our hearts. If he ever runs for the presidency, of course we w U have to bo “for him. His methods have varied from those of anv of his predecessors. Once a week he delivers a lecture to the entire battalion upon some military subject. This, in our estimation, is the most val- uable of all manner of instructions thus far given. That, the military department will continue to grow larger in numbers, stronger in purpose, more rigid in discipline is the most, earnest prayer of the class of ’04.

T J?’ a linll of fame should over he erected at State College there are two men, at least, whose names would be inscribed on its marble tablets. These men have probably done more for their Alma Mater than any two others that ever entered the ivy clad walls of the university. 11 will lx many years before the college authorities and student body forget the earnest work done by J. T. Pride in connection with the legislative ap- propriations of the past year. It was not through fault of his work that the '“hills' got the Governor’s veto. The cause of this calamity might be traced nearer home. ‘Mini Tom” was a member of the class of ‘01, but on account of ill health was compelled to leave college, and later decided to give up his college career for the less strenuous life of a “Kentucky Statesman.” While at College Pride was an athlete of great renown, and played guard on the varsity team. 67 “JSOIMIY GliAKY. The next aspirant for immortal honors is ‘‘Bobby ’ Geary, and no one denies him die right, to take every old riling in sight. In the minds of most college students there never was, and never will l;e again, another college pitcher like “'Bobby.” No matter if a score will win the game, and three men are on base and no one out, Geary will strike out the next three up.” This is no idle boast. This trick has often lx en turned with Grady’s help, yet, with all the adulation that, he has received since he first played in a match game with State, Geary still wears the same size hat. This, in a nut shell, explains the character of the man. Athletics. ATin.F rrCS nr “State,” even when viewed in the most, conservative . light are in a very nourishing condition, and if tlie student body manifests in the future the same interest, pecuniary and otherwise, as they have in the past, sports have a very rosy prospect indeed. '1'he formation of an Athletic Association at the beginning of this col- legiate year, of which every student is a member, was the first step towards organization and concerted action on the part of the student body to support athletics as it should be supported in a college of this size. This feature of undergraduate life does more for a college than perhaps any other. It is athletics that affords us the opportunity of serving during our college years, the Alma Ala ter we revere. It is athletics that creates a com- mon cause and brings faculty and students together. With such men as Profs. Kastle, Anderson, Brooks and Capt. Byroad© to lead the cheering at a match game, even the most veritable “shark” would leave his books to join the howling mob of undergraduate fanatics. Until recently athletic agreements between various colleges of Kentucky were very laxly observed and professionalism tainted sport in more than one institution. Ii culminated in the football season of 100“ when one college team was disbanded on account of “ringers,” another team played professionals throughout the season and a third one imported a number of “false alarms” tor the largest game of its season. The result is apparent- There followed the reorganization of the Inter-Collegiate Athletic Asso- ciation of Kentucky, which has brought, the leading universities into well- defined positions regarding athletics. The rulings of this association do away with all professionalism and put. an end to “ringers,” and it is earnestly hoped that in the future all colleges will enter in athletic contests only such men who are representative students. Thus it is that an era is inaugurated, not a new era but merely a contin- uation of that which existed in ante eollcgio-bellum days. 71 S soon as the sunk-ms had faced the powers that be, last fall, as soon almost as matriculation was over, some forty men could he seen on the athletic field, attired in various forms of apparel, from matchless overalls to genuine moleskins—all aspirants for gridiron glory. Soon after school opened the Athletic Committee secured as coach Air. C. A. Wright, a tower of strength from the Columbia eleven of '02. Air. Wright was a believer in heroic treatment. He put the “bunch” through such a thorough course of training that cigarettes became the x, v, z‘s of their alphabet. They got in good condition very early, and when the chosen eleven lined up for the first game there were no saplings among them, but instead each was a towering oak or a stubborn little hickory. Coach Wright and Captain Byroade were of inestimable value to the men, out the season. The “Immortals of 'OS” have for die past six years been our college heroes: and why? because they scored in that season 1S1 points, while the combined efforts of all their opponents did not result in a single score. Our team last fall scored 172 points before it wag scored upon by an opposing team. The men of last, years team are our later day heroes. When we think nf those men, of the sacrifices they made and of the pluck they exhibited, we are reminded of the Olympic games of old Greece, and as the participants in these festivities were men to be admired, so now we cherish a deep admiration for the members of last year’s eleven. It is when thinking of these plucky followers of the pigskin that one’s mind reverts back to the olden time when the Roman love of man for man exceeded that even of man for woman. And were such a thing possible now, in this land of Blue Grass belles ami basket ball heroines, the men who would merit our attention and whom we would admire are the members of the football team of 1003. teaching them the Columbia style of play, which proved very effective through- 72 Foot Ball Team 1903 M A IlDOX . .

For the ex- cellent. work in the latter position he was picked for center on the All-Amer- ican team. After leaving college he coached the University of Washing- ton in the fall of 1901, and the next season returned to New York to coach Columbia. A man who believes in fair play at all times, one who respects every de- cision of the referee, and who plays hard swift ball throughout a game—this is the man whose work here and elsewhere has gained for him the title, “Wright, Sportsman.” Foot.

WTITLE even tlu most ardent enthusiast, could not. hope for a hotter record for this year’s baseball team than was made by the nine of ’0 5, the most conservative assert with reason that all previous records will he surpassed, and as a matter 1 course State' will again land the champion- ship. With nearly all of last year’s team hack: a likely bunch ot youngsters to pick from, and facilities for early indoor practice, we should round into form a team which should at the end of every game return t camp with the seal]) of a new victim dangling at its belt. The success of the team of 1002 was due largely to its splendid fielding, while that which won for us the title. Champions of 1008.” was the “stick work” of the entire team and the phenomenal pitching of Robbie Geary. K. ('. I ., all looked alike to him. It was a case of one, two, three and hack t the bench. The team of 1008, captained hv . 11. Grady, was the most successful that has ever represented K. S. ('. It. won the cham- pionship without a single defeat among the strongest teams in the State, and proved, ltevoi d the possibility of a doubt, its right to this much coveted title. As before stated the chances of State winning the championship this year are very bright, and in order that such a team may meet foes worthy of its steel, . ir. A. A. Gordon, manager of this year’s team, arranged the best sched- ule we have ever had, the list calling for crack games on the home grounds and an extended trip through Northern States. For many years the team has been handicapped l.v badly arranged '‘for- eign” dates, hut this is now remedied, and for once -wcftl have an opportunity of resting our metal,-an opportunity which we know they will eagerly seize, to demonstrate to Northern colleges that this is at least one university in Ken- tucky capable of putting up an article of ball as it should be played. 1 Base Ball Team 1903 Grady. . .

PKIOTi to last year track athletics had been on the wane. Suite College had not taken part in an Intercollegiate. Track Meet for the five preced- ing years. Last year, however, we met and defeated Central 1 nivorsity by the decisive score of 78 to 40, and the interest which had begun to be mani- fested culminated in a vigorous enthusiasm. The running track is t j mile in circuit by 20 feet, wide. It. is of the rectangular type, with quarter circle corners. 'Phis track was put in condi- tion early in the season and is the best of its kind in the State. The large number of applicants for this year's team indicate a renewal of last, years enthusiasm. Our athletes are now registered members of the Amateur Athletic Union. Stale College sent a delegation to the Second Annual Indoor Games, held in Louisville. April 0th, under the sanction of this Athletic Union, and her team made n very creditable showing. State will probably be represented by some of her best athletes at St. Louis, on .Tunc 2nd, in the meeting of the estern Association 1 the? Amateur Ath- letic Union.

IF hv any (‘Iu ne 11� ; football ami baseball seasons had boon characterized by disastrous defeats, there is one branch of athletics which, hv its bril- liant successes, would have redeemed them in ©very respect. All hail to the Girl’s Basket Ball Team of 1904, the team which has yet to feel the sting of defeat. Successful from the start.—two years ago—basket ball as played by girls caught, not only the student, but. the public favor as well, and every game played drew enthusiastic houses which packed the standing room to the doors an appreciative crowd of fellows—mad—riotously mad, over contests abounding in snappy, spectacular plays. The fleet-footed meml ers of the track, the college gymnasts, the stars of the gridiron, the kings of the diamond., all these who doff their caps to no other athletes, willingly and cheerfully bare their heads to the Girls’ Basket Ball Team. Though the games have not been numerous, our girls have won decisively every game they have played. Fudcr the able coaching of Coach St. John, the team rounded info form early, and by assiduous practice kept in training through the season. The team has ever been and is always eager for a contest. The scores sj eak for themselves. 93 GIRLS’ BASKET BALL TEAM, IDOL Miss Shaw..............................R. Guard Mrs� Scott ............................L.

The interest manifested in gymnasium work this year has been tie best in the history f the institution. In the mornings the class work has been well attended, and in the afternoons the spacious floor lias been filled with a volunteer army of indoor athletes — Preps' practicing graceful movements with the Indian Clubs, or playing games. Freshmen and Sophomores doing graceful stunts on the bars or mats. Juniors Itoxiug. wrestling or fencing, and Seniors adding the final cmliellishmcnts to their bodies as well as to their minds: around the piano a crowd of music-lovers and singers, and in the gal- lery the ever-changing crowd of spectators. Here we see mingled together all types of temperament and character. One will exhibit the precision of a spinster, another will exercise in rag time; the trained gymnast will perform a feat with grace and beauty of form; the ambitious, but injudicious, fellow will attempt anything, and often finds him- self in a heap upon the mats with his head in his center of gravity: one will move so slowly that in the uneasy heaviness of his movements, his gait ap- pears to be modeled upon that of a very tired dromedary, while sti’i another will work with a rapidity equaled only by that with which one says his prayers on a cold winter’s nigh’.. From this throng of aspirants ten were chosen t constitute the Gymna- sium Team. The Second Annual Gymnastic Tournament was held on March 12th, and a gold medal was presented to the lies: all-round gymnast. The work of the team upon this occasion was of ;i higher order than any heretofore at- tempted, and the tournament was successful in every way and received very favorable comment. On March 5th the team gave a very creditable performance in tin IIi-vle-Humphrey Gymnasium at Danville, Ky.. and bad an automobile trip long to lie remembered. State College is proud her Gymnasium Team, so Here's to the Wy that skins the cat” Or docs the Giant. Swing. May he the broad wide world combat And whip the whole blamed thing. !)S WJlTLL6 Patterson Literary Society. R. II. Arxktt, L. E. Andrus, I. M. Goffer. A. B. Cramm. L. II. Bhckkr. S. A. Denny. B. J.

Sienna Fried, 1 V. AVJi; Tlhe Signal Corps� WE print the picture on the foregoing page upon the earnest solicitation of the young gentlemen whom it represents, and upon payment of a small fee from the soldier on the extreme left. You notice chevrons on his arms and a .Napoleonic look of fierce determination on his hrow. He is John McChord Jr., the pot-stomached Apollo from Lebanon. Ky. 11 is efficient leaders!.ip of this fine military organization has been a source, of gratification to his friends and of elation to himself. He is very popular with his men and he mingles very freely among them. We are sorry the next man has his hand's behind him for lie has a beautiful pair of lunch hooks, lie is Jim Forbes, of Hopkinsville, and his coat, which you notice is unfastened at the throat, indicates that ho is hot in the collar. No doubt such is the case, for he has been drilling for five or ten minutes, which is more work than he is accustomed to. The sad expression on his face can be explained by a certain young lady who has spent the winter in the far-away south. On the right of Mr. Forbes stands, in graceful posture, a handsome young Lothario, who answers to the appellation of Earnest Goode. His cap, rakishly thrown on one side of his belfry; his sad, sardonic expression: his tired sympathetic wav of standing, all betokens the ingenuous wiles of the lady-killer. Hois probably the most soldierly rookie in the bunch, if we draw our conclusions from the way his nether extremities arc in juxtaposition. This inference, however, is fallacious, the others, all are bow-legged. The next that, meets your gaze is the redoubtable Edward Kinkead, oi Lex- ington. Note the sweet, wan smile on his face and the coy glance of his hazel eyes. Likewise admire the graceful crook of his little linger which betokens the brazen coquetry of his impulsive nature. You will notice that his head covering lias slid upward from his auricular protuberances. Think not harshly of him, gentle reader. His morality is above reproach, the virgin whiteness of his character unspotted. He is not suffering a relapse of the cranium disease incidental to a night out with the boys. Not so. The fact is, the cap was borrowed for the occasion. The young gentleman on the extreme right of the brigade you will notice is without cuffs. He is also without, socks, hut Ibis does not show in the picture. The peculiar grin on his face was not worked up for the occasion, hut is habitual with him. H is parents sent him to college with the express hope that a four-years' course would wear it off. 11 is cap, slightly tilted toward his right ear, shows his beautiful auburn hair to an advantage. He is David Hays, of Bloomfield, Ky. He is sometimes called “Tomato Hays l v his loving friends in remembrance of a little escapade in the famous Ashland campaign. 1S1 A Visiteftioim NO one can appreciate the field of Waterloo as Napoleon. Xo one can feel keen disappointment as did Alexander at the necessary termination of his conquest. I mention these great historical lights to again remind the reader that it is the time and place and personal interest that lends excitement to an incident. And so if you have never been to college, if you have never roomed in the dormitory, if you have never trembled in the austere presence and felt, the piercing eyes of the President upon you, it is time wasted to read this little incident. Saturday. October . three college men sat around their table and in compliance with the promptings of a conscience not yet dulled from the awakening and softening influences resulting from a vacation at home, were fervently searching the pages of various volumes. Hoping that some legitimate excuse might draw him from his self-imposed labors “Sol thoughtfully approached a raised' window and there, far down among the brown leaves, joyously scratching and skipping about, was a bunch oT the prettiest spring chickens that were ever liberated for a foraging expedition by the President’s Master of Poultry. Kind reader, it is not my intention to weary you with a detailed description of what followed. T will call your attention to “Bill Henry” as he glides alolig up to the unsuspecting innocents and' makes a flying tackle to the distress and ultimate ruin of a line buff cochin. Now the fleet-footed “'Sol” clears for action and in and out among the trees, up and down the hill he pursues with relentless speed the now scattered and thoroughly terrified feathered’tribe. “Handsome Harry” descends the tire escape and with a skill and quickness only derived from experience, materially assists in the business at hand. Now “Bill Henry” has delivered up his first down and all join in with sweet accord to chase the roosters from the sward. All caution is forgotten in the eagerness of the chase. Unheeded is the shrill squawking; unnoticed the near proximity of the President’s house. Thus with knightly valor unsurpassed by none that Stanley found in Africa, the downfall and capture of five members of a once happy family is accomplished, and ruin, mournful ruin and bleak desolation take up their abode where happiness and prosperity were once securely enthroned. The victims are placet! in a box in the ante-chamber of 30, and crumbs from various feasts are brought, that they may spend their time in pleasant anticipation. Tis Sunday morning, bright and clear. The little clock hanging by a nail indicates the hour to lx; halt' past eleven, as your humble servant climbs slowly and uncertainly from his downy bed. Bill Henry’’ is sleeping in his usual disregard for formality, with his head lying on the outside edge of his bed and face turned straight up as though he was carrying on a pleasant conversation with some heavenly body. Various sighs, gurgles, whispers, and through all, a steady combined effort to imitate the working of an exhaust valve and a three-toothed buzz-saw, indicates that slumber sweet and fresh lias claimed him. “Hebe” lias evidently gone to church and “Sol,” who has spent a restless night- in 31, is just removing his hat preparatory to retiring in “Hebe’s” bc-d'. 1 make a hasty inspection of the water-works and find everything dry and the room orderly at his devotions. After taking an admiring peep through the slats at our handsome aggregation, I take the bowl, and dropping the two iiimsv curtains that separate the suite of rooms, proceed to search tho dormitory for the necessary IT� O. As 1 open the door j almost run, bowl first, into President Patterson. “Oh, immutable, transient fate! Was President Patterson ever known to be on the third floor before? “Good morning,” says President Patterson. “Good morning,” says 1. looking apologetically at my half robed body and backing cautiously within my door. “I'll come in a while,” says President Patterson. “Yes, sir,” 1 remarked in tragic tones. “The President comes in observing everything closely. “Bill Henry” is still sleeping in the same reckless abandon. “Sol lias seen enough to hastily throw himself upon the bed and wrap his head and shoulders in two comforts and a blanket, in the vanity of his soul, thinking as the proverbial ostrich, that he is hidden, and all unmindful that the larger portion of him is showing in painful relief against the sheets. The President observes “Bill Henry and walks up to his bed. “And who is this?” he says, looking straight down into “Bill's” troubled counte- nance. “Mr. Grady,” says I. •Tust then “Bill” cautiously opened one eye just enough to see. lie encounter- ed the President’s look of contemplation. “Bill” closed both eyes tightly and as- sumed a rigidity intended to impersonate one who sleeps. The President crosses to the other bed. “And who is this?” says the President. “Mr. Darling,” says I. watching “SolV’ childish endeavors at concealment, and echoing his groans as he slowly smothers to death. “Have a seat. President,” says I. placing a chair with iis back to the ante- room. The President turns the chair facing the ante-room and sits down. “Scratch, scratch,” goes something from behind the curtains. I turn a elmir over to drown out further manipulations in the ante-chamber. “Peek, peck,” comes from the ante-chamber. ‘•President, says 1 loudly, in order to divert his mind from external affairs, “do the land-grant colleges assume responsibility for the land, tl'.at the law, ac- cording to the lull passed by the elicits of the late Senator Morrill, incorporated and to be maintained by the proviso—■” Here I gave down, but was moved to further efforts bv a “peek, peek, peeking.’- I resumed still louder. “Has any subsequent congress proceeded in the endeavor, actuated by virtue of a future need, arising from the preponderons growth and growing tendency of the people at large—” Again I paused in my incoherent chatter and expected the cock’s shrill clarion to break upon my strained' ears at every instant. The President not being able to make anything out of my unintelligent question proceeded on his tour of inspection and arising asked: “What is that little room for?’5 at the same time advancing. “President,’’ I interrupted in tones meant to be firm, and assuming an expres- sion of ashamed housc-wifery. “that room is so diny that I wouldn't let anybody “Very well,” says the President, going toward the door. “Good-morning.” I glanced at “Bill.” He was in exactly the same position, only his face had a pained expression and great drops of perspiration were freezing on his forehead. Sol had become weak from his exertions to breathe, and was lying in a bellicose semi-conscious condition. As the door closed “Bill” made a dive under the curtains and began throwing heads out of the window. He, too. had been hearing things. BUTTINSK V.

Prof. V. ‘Mr. Eubank, is astronomy a. very useful study?” Eubank—“Yes, sir, Professor; a very useful study indeed.” Prof. Y. (delighted)—“That is right, .Mr. Eubank, you show a thorough preparation for this recitation.” Eubank slyly closes his book and gently falls into a tranquil slumber. Prof. W.—“Now, Mr. Pickels, can you tell me how many kinds of time we have.” A gentle murmur, like a buzz-saw eating into a hickory plank, breaks the stillness. Pickels is asleep. Prof. V. tosses the question to Iloag- land. lloagland (awakening with a start)—“llow-many-kinds-of-time, Profes- sor? Why, we have sidereal time, solar time and n g-time.” Hilly Warder suddenly awakens and, fearing he will be called upon, precipitately leaves the room. Prof. W.—“Mr. Gordon, what is sidereal time?” Gordon- “Professor—I—don't, know what Siberian time is. 1 only had two hours to prepare for this recitation and am, of course, unprepared.” Lewis—“Prof. W., can a Waterbury watch be set so as to keep sidereal time ?” Prof. W.—“It is not known for sure, but a Waterbury watch can be de- pended upon to keep most any old time but the correct time.” Puckett- “Professor, if a man on the moon owned a watch would it be called a luna-tick?” After a few remarks on ticking, bed ticking, etc., Pice breaks in with: “Professor, is the moon supposed to have any effect upon the human mind? I have heard of cases where sailors, having slept in the moonshine, became foolish.” Prof. W.—“The moon has effect, on the tides and it is reasonable to supposo that it would also effect, the human mind, and especially so, where there is wa- ter on the brain.” Then the merry war went on. Camp Eclhioes AT last the long looked for day lias arrived, and judging from what I have already seen I must first inform you of the fact that you left the show just before the curtain went up. dust how you could spend a whole year in coliegc sailing around in Graphic Statics and Mechanics, and eating Calculus up blood-raw”, and then allow a thing like this, slip is beyond my grasp. But since I. promised to write you in full about the encampment. I don't know that I could do better than commence at the beginning and first record that we arrived. After a swift flight of one hundred and twenty-five miles up the C. iV O. II. II., we rolled in at the depot simultaneous with the striking of the twelve o’clock and a gentle down-pour of rain, which prevented a parade through the town as was anticipated by the jx'ople here. We find Ashland to he a town of about, seven thousand inhabitants, scattered along the bank of the river for about two miles. The town is long and slim, but the streets are short and broad. It this damp weather continues I feel sure the width of the streets will he a thing of convenience. You know it would never do to let the college spirits” die out in a place of this kind. The site of our camp is ideal—in the open at the edge of a thickly wooded park near the heart, of the city. Tt is at one end of the park and the city public schools is at the other. Coming from town one must pass the school building first mid then through the wooded grove, which is beautifully diversified with gentle curving sawdust walks. On either side of the walks leading to camp are numerous double-seated swings and benches. You see everything is con- ducive to our thorough enjoyment. Whenever we got lonesome, all we have i«. do is to go out in the woods and talk to the squirrels. But a word more about our camp. She promptly assumed the name ‘‘Camp Byroadc as a mat- ior of course, and hv common consent of the entire cadet corps. 'Ibis means a rare compliment to our commandant He is not only military, skin, boots, brains and all, but very popular as well. T have always considered the two things incompatible, but it works out differently in his case. Just, liefore leav- ing Ixixingron the student body presented him with a handsome sword. The same spirit that prompted the giving the sword had to do with the naming of our camp. The hoys think he is the whole “cheese.” After we had each taken part in a couple of dog fights for a little straw ami tern poles, it was not. long until there appeared a city of white. Tn this city there dwells a hun- gry lot of inhabitants, and the greatest, event of the day was mess. It. con- sisted of liglitbread, coffee, onions and steak, and was served in tin plates as we passed the cooks in line—one company after another. We then hied our- selves to the wood pile and by the aid of a hatchet-, and with much persuasion managed to get on the outside of tin steak. All this took place before several hundred idle spectators composed chicily of dirty-faced kids.” of which Ash- land has her share. After this agony f supper Kranked and 1 went down town and one of the first sights that met our eves was a long, slim cadet stand- ing on the pavement in the shade of a tret , with his arm around a young lady’s waist. He didn't seem to care whether the earth rotated on its axis once in twenty-four sidereal hours or not, just so the law of gravity remained in force, and when asked by the object of his dearest wishes if he bad ever road any of Bertha M. Clay’s works he said he had, but was not particularly fond of them, but was quite willing to change his mind if site would urge it in the least. Now, this lim lover is a Senior. Would you have thought :: We got a dam]) dose last night. It rained like fury and the cil of white looks like a huge white bird with some of her tail feathers missing. Some tuns were blown down and scattered in general confusion. A stream of water found its way through. White (Juyn’s tent and floated his socks away the only pair In bad. You rememtar them: same ones he wore at college all the time. Gullian slept with his feet, in the water and didn’t know it. and for once had them washed to a virgin freshness. He was so proud of the fact this morning, that he would not speak to us without, the utmost condescension. We gave our first sham battle out at Clyfsidc Park. Thousands of people were there. On account, of the immense crowd we did not have sufficient room for the maneuvers, but it was pulled off in very good style. During the action ono of the field pieces started off down the bill of its own accord and Trice stuck one of his trilbys under the wheel, which unlaced bis shoe. Ho threw it aside and began climbing his right leg. Tie went home today. Puckett made a grand stand finish by leaping full length into a duck pond. When he came out he looked like something just out of the ■ . Rhodes Vi ley would have done the same thing but he saw a young lady drop her lunch and slack- ened his pace to pull that in, and barely escaped. After the sham the boys that didn’t have girls were looking for hutch baskets. Many a heart was bro- ken and many a basket robbed. Akin lias got the neatest pair of hooks on him for anything of that kind 1 ever saw. White Guyn paraded around with a fair haired creature- a perfect beauty, l ittle did she know that, he was sockless as a jay bird. (..’apt. Gilliland kept that gold tooth in his head exposed to a ('atlottsburg beauty and finally worked her for a cheese sandwich and a «tuple of hard tailed eggs. Xisbet commenced to guy him and frightened all the ducks out of the pond. Big Aladdox met. a couple of girls and introduced about a hundred boys to them within twenty minutes. Best record made on these grounds. 102 The day was gloriously spent and a right royal time we are having, with few exceptions. That our visit is not a thing of j y to all is very evident. There are a set of fellows around here losing sleep at night on our account. They do it in order that they may stand on street corners in gangs and hiss cadets to their backs as they go down the street and then pelt them with rocks. They are so unfriendly, this pig headed set. They could at least use smaller rocks. One bounced a piece of blast furnace slag off my head last night that was fully as large as a brick bat. Such conduct was very embarrassing to me, not to mention the inconvenience it put me to. 1 think we deserved better treatment, as visitors, even if we are occasionally caught on the same side of the street with a girl. This has been a big day in camp. Nothing sensational transpired except that Goodloe and .McDowell went to the river and took a hath without being urged. Keally. I believe Goodloe is improving. So far, .Nollau and Johnson have been proof against any such rash proceeding. This afternoon the fair sex swooped down upon us in such overwhelming numbers that we were forced to “take to the woods. I concluded this was the time for me to make a killing, so 1 put on my white duck trousers and sur- rendered to a green-eyed blonde from over the river. I conducted her to one of those benches in the woods, and was doing line for awhile, but 1 marie one bad; play that, lost the game. 1 intended :o make a point by reciting a couple of verses from Kiln Wheeler Wilcox, and quite naturally laid one of my hands upon her shapely shoulder. T didn't have anything else for it to do just at that time. She informed me that if it was all the same to me, 1 could just remove that hand and roll my little hoop right on down the sawdust walk. It is my first, and if I mistake not my last, adventure; at all events i- is my last with the green-eyed variety. T always was a failure at anything like that. But not so with Scott, lie made about a dozen hits this afternoon and brought, home the coupons to show for it. in the form of little ragged edged handkerchiefs. And by the way, they make most excellent gun rags. Capt. Shota’s company won the Hag today at dress parade, and imme- diately afterwards ho went boldly up to one of his young lady friends and told her he was it'' and that sin? must, eome across with a cake. How do you like that for nerve? Gilliland’s girl from Catlettshurg is named Benelope, sin- has been loaf- ing around camp all day and Capt. Gilliland says she has a winning way. lit:} Saturday. Things have been very quiet today in camp. Most cadets went visiting, some to OatJettsburg, sonic to Huntington, W. Va.. and some t Tronton, Ohio. Those who went to Huntington report favorably, especially ujion the glass works and brewery. At the brewery all you have got to do is to look hungry and a man gives you tickets for beer. Peckinpaugh and Barkley visited the brewery in eiglit different disguises. At fronton we inspected the blast furnaces. The one we went to the top of was about, seventy-live or eighty feet high. Some one remarked something about being closer to heaven, but every time they introduced a charge into that furnace it reminded me of something not very heavenly. Down below a rip roaring mighty blast of hot air helps things along a little, and for a good straight run of wind and noise, the modern blast furnace is the only thing that ! have ever run across that could anything like rival N isber. We took dinner at 1 ronton and I ate so many Frankfurter sausages that 1 am ashamed to look a dog in the face. It seems to have affected Edwards more than any of us, as he commence:! barking soon afterwards. We finally got him back to camp for dress parade. Last, night Lancaster, Bull Durham, Wade Smith and several others went down town and came hack late and started up a midway show at the head of the Battery street, doe Lancaster did a hear dance, and Pat Hunter insisted upon doing a slack wire performance under the arc light, “Noisy” X isbet and Edwards were the spielers. But for the timely intervention of the guards the show would have been a howling success. (.'apt. Jenkins has cut ( apt. Gilliland out of Penelope, but Gilliland is nor. suffering.

There is no doubt th:r Jenkins has made a decided hit. with Penelope. He also spends some of his rime out in the woods with one of the school teachers grading algebra papers. Sunday. This has been a great day in camp. Old Judge Savage, one of the “grand old men of the community, spoke to the cadets before headquarters it� the afternoon. He will long be remembered for his kind, humorous remarks, and his benevolent face. The camp and adjacent woods were crowded with folks from miles around. Late in the afternoon a crowd of cadets got together with a tent, fly and 194 commenced throwing the commissioned officers sky-high in the air. The Cap- tain of (, . B was officer of the day, and they just pulled him down off his perch and sent him up to mingle with the elements. This was very amusing to the immense crowd of people, and especially so, when he came down and gave old mother earth a stiff jab in the bosom before going upward again, ('apt. Jenkins was taken away from his girl and blanketed before her very eyes. It was a sight to see his bigness turning over spider-like in mid air. They started for Frnnkel and Gilliland, but they ran through the Major's tent. One got under the cot. The other took to the tall uncut and escaped. I believe our commandant is a gay deceiver.

They are always out on the town. Franked has lx?en looking for some of the lovely ones he met four years ago, when the battalion was encamped here. But alas for poor Frankel. They are all married now and his job is to carry the little ones around while mamma looks at the soldiers. At dress parade today Edwards appeared in a now Drum Major's mis- fit. He looked like a chick just out of the shell. Monday. We had a great, game of base ball today. Our team played the local team and was defeated by a score ofi 4 to 2. Five men on our team had never played on the team before. The first umpire was so rotten ho was funny. lie decided against, us in the plainest cases. Once 1 told him he was doing the job about right for Ashland. He gave me to understand that he played the game before f was born. I agreed with him to that extent, hut told him I didn’t think he had played any since. Finally they took him out and put another umpire in and he was worst than the first. Grady held up a bloody split hand for time, and two men ran across the plate. Mr. Umpire said he did’nt call any time in base ball. I admire an umpire who can rob a team in a beautiful sort of way and make that team think ho is square, but one of the kind we dealt with today is too rotten for any use. I wish you might have seen our friend Gullion as he appeared coming into camp this evening. If Sherlock Holmes could have seen him he probably would have sized him tip like this: Why. my dear Dr. Watson, not at all. it is the plainest case in the world. The distinct odor of stale beer arising from the young man's coat indicates that he has been in the clutches of an Ashland policeman. The small torn strip in the rear of the coat verifies this conclusion. You see the mud on his shoe awl trousers ami his spent condition from fast running. Xmv, Doctor, wo have the data, and it resolves itself into the simple problem of adding two and two together and getting four. lie has been in the hands of a policeman, decidedly an Ashland police- man: after some trouble he made his escape is shown by the torn places in the coat. Evidently be has been pursued for about two miles, and the mud on his shoes is plainly the mud of a duck pond. Therefore he came straight through the duck pond about two miles from this point. Now there is a duck pond ai Olvl'side Park which is just two miles, shortest distance. The few strands of red hair you see on the young man's collar makes it as plain as the nose on a man’s face that he has been in the company of a red headed girl and in all probability she is Nora, the policeman’s sweetheart. So there you are. Doctor.” Now this is simply a deduction. It. may vary from this slightly.

The last rays of the setting sun threw a shaft of mellow light- across the still figure, vet seemed to louch it lightly as though afraid of arousing its fair owner from her reverie. It was one of her few leisure moments ami she had given herself up to the train of thoughts which thrust, themselves upon her. No wonder there was a far-away look in her soft brown eyes, and a tremulous smile on her curv- ing lips. The veil of time had been rent asunder, and the scene of the trouble- some past stood out in bold relief. A slight misunderstanding followed by hasty words, angrily spoken, a vow never to meet in the future, and he was gone. For awhile pride and anger strove for mastery, but both were soon forced to give way, and like any other girl, she wept. Richard had declared that he would seek his fortune in some distant land, far away from the place he had once held so dear. As Bernice retraced her steps, she, too, resolved to win fame and fortune, and to prove that woman could live and be bappv without love. She lost no time in making preparations for a hasty departure, for she well knew only a few days would elapse before Richard would carry out his resolution to leave the neighborhood. She, too, would find a few days sufficient, and crc his departure he would learn that she had already left her childhood home, never to return. Memory now recalls that last strange meeting. Was it. some kindly in dined sprite that sent each of them to the little station to catch the same train? Tl i; was, then what a disappointment it must have suffered, for no reconcilia- tion was effected. A slight start of surprise on the part of each, a questioning look from him, a cold one from her; then each sat staring at the rough wooden floor with studied indifference, while poor Dan Cupid stood with his little head against the wall, and from his mild, blind eves, tears gushed in torrents. But who can tell the various emotions which surged in two indignant breasts. She did not hesitate in choosing her profession. She had already felt the delicious thrill of gazing at an audience over the footlights, and lmd expe- rienced the satisfaction of hearing merited applause and praise. A few years sufficed to bring Bernice to the goal of her ambition. Both fame and fortune 198 wore now hers. To ninny she apparently had nothing loft, to wish for. but wlvo can say that she would not forego all the praise and adulation of the world just for one glance from a pair of well remembered eyes. The striking of the clock aroused her and with a broken sigh she oast one longing look far into the twilight and recovered herself. The curtain has fallen on the last, act, and the delighted audience burst into one more round of an- plause. Bernice's name is on every lip. Even those who know her best mar- veled at her acting tonight What subtle influence was cast over her and by her displayed to her admirers? No one could solve the mystery, vet all felt the magic spell. bar across the continent in an apartment of an elegantly appointed hotel a man is restlessly pacing to and fro. Fortune had also been kind l - the man for he was now rich. After that last meeting at the station no tidings t Ber- nice ever reached him. He fancied that he had completely forgotten the past, but. 111 h 11 his return to his mother country every memory was awakened. Why should his memory so persistently travel tonight, back to the past? Why should each scene stand out so distinct and vivid? Why should he seem to feel her vorv presence? These and a thousand other questions crave an an- swer. Wearied, he sinks down into his chair and endeavors to bury his thoughts in his paper and to seek solace in his pipe. Heavens! her name in print. An actress of world-wide fame! The pipe falls from his nerveless fingers, his head rests on the table. One sigh escapes, then all is still. Far away, she, standing at the low window stretches out her arms in the soft, moonlight, then with a broken sob, sinks down. 11� !)

Listen ve to my song for it be but the truth, yea. but the truth; for ye wandering minstrel tells the truth—sometimes. It came to pass that ye Nameless Wonders and ye Fearsome Thugs met in mighty conflict near the Temple of Parnassus, and great was ye rabble which paid ye hard-earned lucre for seats in ye amphitheatre. Ye Fearsome Thugs, which were of ye color of red outside but ye color of yellow on ye backbone, slunk into ye arena with sickly smile, but inwardly quaking and trembling with fear. For great was their terror of ye Nam less Wonders, which were mighty men from all over ye globe. There was one which ye multitude called chief, and “ye did well to call him chief, who for twelve long years had met upon ye arena every shape of man or beast ye broad empire of Rome could furnish. S ane there were of ye Egyptian tribe that brought with them news of strange things along ye river N ile. Others had journeyed by camel from ye Far Fast. All, like ye surviving children of ye Scythian women who were thrown in ye running stream to test their worth, were of ye best. Like Achilles, ye warriors could be wounded only in ye heel. Ye Nameless Wonders strode with heads creet and hearts gladdened with victory- -which was to l e. And ye rabble clapped ye hands gleefully, and ye noisome calliope—a monster with iicrceful howls -let- forth a mighty noise which caused ye Fear- some Thugs to quake and wish they had not come. And it came to pass that when ye Nameless Wonders and yo Fearsome Thugs came together in battle array, ye Fearsome Thugs tried to escape from ye arena. Ye Nameless Wonders were in ye road of escape, and ye Fearsome Thugs 20+ foil to vo ground quaking with fear, and, lo, it was seen that ye Fearsome Thugs had in their midst a skin of a Fig—a vile animal, unclean and filthy— and ye Nameless Wonders would have none of i- and tried to carry it to ye Fearsome Thugs' land and there leave it. But ye Fearsome Thugs were in great terror of ye unclean skin, in terror greater than of ve .Nameless Wonders, and would have none of it. So ye Nameless Wonders gave a mighty kick to force ye unclean beast down ye field, but one of ye Fearsome Thugs, in mortal terror, got in ye way of ve kick and received ye Nameless Wonders sandal in ye bread basket which caused him much pain and doleful howling. Then ye hearts of ye Nameless Wonders became as waters and ye Fear- some Thugs in haste hustled ye bestial skin to ye Nameless Wonders’ country amid much carnage, and ye followers of ye Nameless Wonders wept copious weeps because they had lost many obili. But ye followers of ye Fearsome I hugs took to ye tall and uncut because they saw the rage of ye followers of ye Nameless Wonders and were much afraid. And it came to pass that they wore seen no more for many days, and when they did again journey near Parnassus they did so with circumspectness and fear, for ye rage of ye Nameless Wonders’ followers was awesome to see, for they had lost much lucre. A man lived on this mortal coil, Never worried by care or toil; lie never burned the midnight oil— For what’s the use? Me had the best within the land. He spent his wealth with lavish hand. He joined the epicurean band— But what’s the use? Another was filled with knowledge and loro, He lurked in his study behind barred door. He studied and toiled 'til his brain was sore— But what’s the use? He reveled in ancient, dusty tomes. He knew the number ot’ anything’s lames. He knew the geological names of stones- But what’s the use? One died in drink, the other in fame Compare the skulls, they’re both the same. You can’t tell them apart to save your name— So what’s the use?

Bight here a revelation greets our bachelor eves and all highly prized notions of Venus receive a severe shock, when she is presented to our penetrating stave devoid of all unnecessary weight and curves, and bravely facing the front in skirts barely reaching the ankle. Very barely. It now occurs to us if some boys that are almost: impossibly gawky and over- angular would consult some modiste that is here represented, he. too, might meet the requirements of a modern Venus. Now the battle begins and two fair Amazons advance to the center of the floor and the referee pitches the ball up between them. Both unwind to an extent that is astonishing, and while they yet tarry without a definite connection to terra firma, one strikes the ball knocking it sideways, after all on neutral ground, and the other unfortunately not getting so high with her well-intended right swing, lands it squarely in her opponent’s face, and both descend in a clinch. The melee becomes general and rolls in one vast tide of straight hair, stray hair, curls and ribbons reversed, and inverted humanity, to one end of the Gym. There many passes are made with an titter disregard of forward, backward or between. After a general mix-up the ball is lost, and after much searching one fair but hefty dame walks from over it, t � her own astonishment as well as that of the spectators. They commence with renewed vigor and one lanky individual springs from the immediate holly contested vicinity and screams: 4 Tic re, Pollv, Polly. “Here.

By Rmscilla Ajuwinii. (Editor's note: Exclusively for girls who ought to know better. Inquirers please send photograph, family history and cook's name. A lock of hair enclosed will assist in advice as to the choice of a husband.) Before answering your questions, my dears, it behooves me to tell you that at one time I was a girl. If those of you who are now full grown women were never girls, oh. my dear friends, yon will regret it the longest day you live. V hen 1 was i: girl ! longed for the day when I could have my clothes made with the straight front clFect, and wear my hair pompadour and have it rolled over chicken fence wire, a la rat. Now that 1 am a woman, living in the intense life of the twentieth century, I look hack and contemplate with unalloyed pleasure the lime when I was content yith what nature had done for me. Those days were dear, sweet days to me. And 1 say If you, my beloved reader, have never been a girl, 1 can only say that you have made a great mistake. If you will purchase the three past, issues of the magazine, you will see what I have had to say at greater length. It is my intention to write more along this line. The subscription price is just one dollar for the remaining issues of the year. 1 want to tell you, my dear readers, and it is just among ourselves, about our Sunshine Society. Sunshine, my dears, is a product of the sun; it manutacturv and output being governed solciy by the location of the clouds, the time of the vear. and the attitude of the earth. Now the Sunshine Society, my tootsewootsics. is just an organization of a number of us who are trying to bring cheer and happiness to everyone and at the same time give bachelors an opportunity to be glad they didn't marry any of its members. Sometimes we failed in our purpose, but is not failure triumph? We think so. Some lives will not take, sunshine. In that case we refer this sort to the sedenti fie department conducted by Dr. X-Ray Mrs. Radium is president of our Sunshine Society, and she. bless every ounce of her two hundred and fifty pounds of her avoirdupois, conducts nightly meetings in Starlight Hall, where we use 100 candle power electric lights. Mrs. Radium, my dears (non-subscribers not included), has been working in Alaska, the land of the midnight sun, where she did great good. She took several jars of hermetically sealed daylight sunshine and divided it among the girls in that great snowbound region. Oh! how the girls welcomed it. It was to them what diamonds are to von. Not “Barrios diamonds, hut real Tiffany gems. The girls were each given a ray and while the original brilliancy was somewhat lacking, great good was accomplished by the distribution. 200 As an example of wliat great good may come of a little tiling, let me tell you what one girl's ray amounted to. This girl's father, whom 1 am to tell you about, was a .Jew Esquimau, Slaving settled there long before Columbus was President: of the United State . Well, this girl attended the first meeting of the Sunshine Society in her country. She was given a great long glimmering ray. made way down here in the United States where you and 1 live. The girl took it home to her father who saw an opportunity of doing much good with what his daughter had lieen given. So taking the beautiful ray lie ent it into ten cent strips and sold it to Sunshine Societies that he established. See. dearies, what ft great opportunity there is for all of us. Some day when you are idle, go out into the sunshine and break olf a few rays and send them to some one who hasn't your opportunities in life. Some of you are King's Daughters. You are all aware that the King's Daughters is an organization that intends to do something some day; it has not been decided just when. Well, to those of you who are King's Daughters, go to papa and ask him for his crown, and right in your own castle, hv holding the jeweled headgear to an electric light (gas will do), you can make artificial rays that may he used in localities where the real article has never before been seen. To those not King's Daughters, write to most any matrimonial agency and ask for a duke or prince. They will have crowns likely. If not, they have kin who will loan them crowns for a few days. Vexing Complex Perplexities Answered Yes, Hoilowln darling, love is surrender. 1 never shall forget the time when I was separated from Jack to marry .Tim. How dearly I loved Jack.

She had just been married and was in her parente’ home preparing to leave for her wedding trip. She looked in the glass and seeing the hair too far down over one ear. she pulled it into shape. Her husband in all tnc vigor of manhood, saw that the hair was not stationary. She, poor girl, had moved every strand from root to tip. He had been deceived. H dawned upon him immediately.

T T was Maxwell Spring. She was leaning on the railing on one side looking out over the ball park. Jle was leaning on the railing on the other side looking out over the lake and far beyond the lake into a land more pleasant than this—another Utopia where only love abounded—-love and peace! She was calm and possessed, but. he— 'Plie beauty of the scene told upon his over-wrought feelings and with a tenderness unknown before, he turned just in time to see her wave gaily to one of the boys in the ’park, lie choked down the rage within him. ••Marcia, this has gone far enough. Some explanation must be made.” “Far enough! Perhaps it has, Mr. Kllsmi; bur I am going to Main Building immediately. You may do as you like—stay here if you wish, and study the minute structure of algae from the vantage ground of man’s su- perior knowledge and, above all—a Senior's!” “One moment, Marcia— Miss Stewart. At least give a fellow a chance tx express his mind. We have Wren friends for four years, but “Indeed! T should have thought it much longer than that.!” and she drummed carelessly on the railing and apparently forgot her avowed inten- tion. With a deeper flush he continued, Put never in all that time have I dreamed that we should he placed in such an awkward position!” “T see nothing awkward about my position, I’m sure.” “Xo, confound it! She’s all grace!” addressed to the algae in the lake. “You don’t see the awkwardness, oh ? Well, permit me. As I said, we’ve been friends, good friends—for four years and it is probably useless to point out to you that—” “Absolutely useless. Besides, it has probably been pointed onv to me be- fore, so you may as well save yourself the trouble.” “0, hang it all, anyway’ Can’t you help a fellow out of a scrape?” So vou call it ’a scrape,' •! you? A singularly undignified epithet for such a heart-rending dilemma, to say the'leasU” “Fvcrvbody—that is, er all the fellows, you know—well, they sort o’ set us aside whenever any affair comes up, as take-it-for-granted partners and all that, you know. “Well, haven’t we very obediently fulfilled their expectations? Perhaps you’d better notify the fellows' that their services will not. Ihj required it� fu- ture, Mr. Fllson.” 218 Give me rather all (he tasks of Hercules, than this before me!” again addressed to the algae. Marcia—” “Yes? Mr. F.llson!” “It's expected of us and it’s up to me to ask you.” “Ask me? Ask me what,? 0, do! Anything to relieve the monotony!’ and the most charming of Cupid’s-hows struggled visibly, but not effectively, to stifle a fledgeling yawn. Don't you know, .Miss Stewart, I'm sure Job never knew a girl like you.' “Of course he didn’t. Science teaches that; for isn't evolution carrying man--and incidentally, woman—ever nearer perfection?” “Perhaps. Though I am not. prepared to agree fully nor to discuss at length. At present, 1 want to tell you about this question-1-” O, yes; 1 had quite forgotten it,” and she nodded smilingly to some of the hoys going slowly back to the dormitory from practice. 1 say again, I am expected to ask you—confound the English language!” “Please don’t. It might.he disastrous. Can 1 help you?” “No, thank you. I shall manage.” “I’ndouhtodly—about as gracefully as Professor Walter would 'manage to dance!” A merry laugh rippled out towards the ball park just as the water rippled over the. algae at the foot of Maxwell Spring. E Ison frowned. “Hut this question, Mr. Ellson? What do they expect you to ‘manage?’” “To propose t- von. Miss Stewart,” “Propose! Well, how absurd! And of course, I shall immediately re- ject you!” “Of course. They would probably expect, that, too. if they knew things as they are. Hut nevertheless it’s got to be done!” “Couldn’t we dispense with the ceremony and consider ourselves respect- ively asked and rejected ?” “No, that would never do! It might get out: and besides, when I’ve asked you incoherently, it may be—it will he easy enough for you to say ‘no,’ and I will be expecting it, so it will not come in the nature of a surprise.” “Well, if it must be done, hurry, for we’ve been here long enough. I’m sure I see somebody in a third-storv window of the dormitory watching us. No doubt, they’re wondering if you’ve asked me! Go on.” “Well. Miss Stewart, will—say, what makes yon persist in gazing so earnestly towards the park? The boys arc all gone; besides, 1 don't, want, to propose to the hack of your head!” “Well, is this better?” “Yes, very much. Now, look pleasant. Miss Stewart, unaccountably ami in spite of my strenuous efforts to prevent it, there lias arisen in this State College of Kentucky a most decided expectation that I ask you to marry me. I, therefore, to meet said expectation, formally put the question—Will you be my wife?” No, assuredly not. My ideal would never have proposed that way. Do you .suppose I would marry a man who would «lare offer a proposal in such a legal form? Never!” Your ideal?” M c raurso. f have an i oal. Kverv State '««liege girl has!” “What is your ideal like?” ‘“Not a hit like you !” “O. 1 didn’t suppose for an instant that he was. Be frank, and tell me wherein I fall short. A fellow likes to know the reason for these things even when he is expecting them.” •'!u the :irsr. place, you are nor rail enough. My ideal is six feet—” “Ami T am five feet 'leven! Go on.” “Mis hair and eyes arc brown—” “And mine are grey and auburn, respectively—I mean, vice versa!” “Me is not fat and he would never propose that way!” “Is that all? Yes? Well, Marcia, did it ever occur to you that your ideal might have an ideal and that his ideal might not l«e you ?” “I’d like to know why?” Of course you would; and so would 1!” Mr. Ellson!” “At. your sendee, Marcia!” “Will you please resume your study of algae and—?” “Certainly, in a very few minutes. Meanwhile, there is something more 1 would say to you.” “Then dispense with all preliminaries and be as brief as possible!” Nothing would please me better! Marcia, you know very well my atten- tions to you for lo! these many years have not. I «ecu porfunetory nor in the least irksome. T have loved you since that pro Sophomore stage when even boys have ideals no, don’t interrupt me. Fm just giving you another chance to say ‘no!’ I don’t think you’ll ever find anybody more devoted to you and T— Will you do it ? Will you ‘come with me and l«« my lovo?’ ” “O, Rob, what made you do it ? 1 have rejected you once. You surely don’t think I'm so fickle as to change so soon!” “Of course not, Marcia! But two negatives are equal to an affirmative, aren’t they ?” 'Phe shadows had reached their long anus across the lake and were caress- ing the trees on the other side. Two robin rod-breasts started from the grass nearby at sound of the bugle and soon the students came from their class- rooms out on the campus. One or two, glancing in the direction of A lax well Spring, saw two figures leaning on the railing.—two pairs of eyes looking down into the lake. Were they studying the minute structure of algae? Perhaps. A ITER all has been said ami done, after the sands of timo have half viin jLx. their allotfecl course, and wo in our secure middle age calmly turn a retrospective eye on our life that is past, do not—1 say- at such times, come certain misgivings, that somewhere in that dim vista we have lost a certain indefinable something. Something that we cannot adequately describe, yet of which we are undeniably sure. Did it ever occur to you that this something had its being in our childhood days, but. during these many succeeding years gradually fell away and was erased finally from the tablets of our memory —our lost illusions. Before the lime light of education, the darkness of our benighted child- hood days is dissipated forever, hut with it goes onr childish thoughts and fancies-- gone, gone forever, our lost illusions. Alas, sad to realize that never more will the world seem the same. Gone are our romantic days of youth, gone before the march of enlightenment and hum drum existence. Never more, at evening, can we swing on the old farm gate, with Sally, the sweetheart, of those days of yore—dear little Sally, plump and pretty, her golden hair wind kissed and clustering about her bead in a halo of loveli- ness. Ah, dear little girl, do you not remember, how at such times, we would soulfullv gaze up at the stars that seemed to pin the dark blue canopy of heaven ii. place, and repeat softly that absurd but treasured little rhyme “Twinkle, twinkle, little star, How 1 wonder what you arc, Up above the clouds so high Like a diamond in the sky.” We can never have those thoughts again, never—never. It. is a lost illu- sion. Astronomy and other sciences which, thank Heaven, wove forgotten. 221 have changed all. Never more can “we wonder what you arc. Alas! we know. The verse might now lx; changed: “Twinkle, twinkle little star, Now I know just what you are, Of the planets you're but one Reflecting glory of the sun. And Ghosts, those dear old hug-bears of infancy, the mere mention of which caused our hair to stand on end, and delightful thrills to creep over our souls. They. -.. are gone—far hack to the gates of the Netherlands. The Ghosts are laid. Nevermore will they 'ne resurrected. Psychology and other ologios long since, slipjied our memories have attended n that. They are gone forever another lost illusion. Dear old ghosts of our childhood day, Pug-bears of our youthful play, 't on are gone—forever lay Tn church yards with your mouldering clay. Old superstitions, you, too, are gone, relegated to the limbo of our attic. Now and then you creep out, hut for a moment only. Our skeletons in the fam- ily closet are not more closely watched than you. We look at the new moon over our right shoulder with impunity. Never more do we make a wish on the first star we see at night. Remember that little jingle— Star bright, star light, First star l‘ve seen tonight, 1 wish 1 may, T wish 1 miglu Have the wish I wish tonight. Tt is not only useless, we. have been told, hut it i- silly, and were people to hear us seriously repeating that delightful little doggerel, they would look at us askance and fear for our mental balance. And yet, was it not delicious' What if our wishes never came true? Were we the least skeptical? No a thousand times no. Perhaps it was not (he “first star we had seen that night. Another jwssiblv. That accounted for tin- breaking of the spell. Sweet consolation which never shook our lxdicf in the potency of the wish. But you, all are gone. Far away in the dim, mystic past, lievond the haunts of men. Only children—dear little tots—know the realms where you hold sway. We are no longer friends. Whenever at long intervals wo meet, wo hasten by cads that we are— glancing askance at you from the tail of our eye, as though we recognized you as a once beloved acquaintance, long since gone to seed. Ah, old friend, it is the way of the world—this cold, unfeeling world of ours—which lias autocratically placed conventions and fashions along life’s pathway like steep fences on either side of a lane. Down this we hurry like sheep, helter skelter, down, down to eternity. Always going forward, never stopping, faster, faster, to avoid being crushed by the hordes lndiind. Now and then in lie late hours of the night, when the fire burns low to a fiery bed of embers, we long for you—long for the old, old fancies of days that will never come again. Yet, none of yon come. If we have forgotten you, then also have you forgotten us. 'No—not. all of you. One remains. Of all the countless scenes, hazy and obscured by dim recollection, one stands oir as bright, as a star in Heaven- the humble picture of two little tots, swinging on the old farm gate. Aever, never could 1 forget you, but even though such a calamity came ( � pass but for a moment, there is one wlm would gently revive the memory —one who sits near me by the fireside, her beautiful face illuminated by its ruddy glow—Sally. She will never forget you dear old friends of by-gone days.

This, in brief, comprised the material in The Belles of the Regiment.” It was with con- siderable reluctance that we entered the opera house on the night of die per- formance. In fact, wo were ashamed of the performance to 1m-. as it. was gen- erally understood that it was to he a triumph in point of dreariness. Besides, amateur performances appeal not, to us. We have barely recovered from a paroxysm entitled, She Stoops to Conquer ' as maltreated by our religious friends on North Broadway. But forget it. As we said, we entered the theater with dim forebodings that “dos bolls vould not ring to-night, but. hardly had the curtain llown to the Hies before our perspicacious selves realized that, right here was the real article in the way of comic opera, and settled ourselves firmly in our unpaid seats to enjoy the performance. Our old friend Musty'' was wonderfully and fearfully 'made up ' and with those terrible mustaeliios would have put an armv of Cubans to flight, if they had not fallen dead at. first sight. Cox, as Lieut. Watson, put up a good game, but. here is a piece of ad- vice—when you have a chance to get a strangle hold on a. pretty girl, take advantage of the opportunity. Opportunities rarely come t the thread-hare editor, but we arc proud to say that we have never let it slide by. Young Sutherland, alias Dickey Anderson, was the main feature of the. show. lie never lost an opportunity. You're all right, Dickey; come again. Among the also rails, our old college chump, Joe Lancaster, distinguished himself in fitting; manner. It is doubtful it we ever saw a supc db the turkey trot off the stage in better fashion than he. We regret that, our companion in arms, Ivissell,” was unable to appear during the performance. A sudden sickness, we understand, was the cause of his absence. There are a number of others who counterfeited acting fairly well, but owing to lack of space we are nimble to present a criticism with our trenchant pen. Suffice to say that the show raised a standard which our pin headed religious friends may strive to equal, but never excel. 231 I as. M.
