Espe- cially is this true of the last half of the century. In 1800 there were not more than ten colleges in North America. These were located in the centers of civilization in the Middle-Eastern and New Eng- land States. They were far removed from the fron- tiersman of the Central and Northwestern sections. Distance, then, rendered them almost inaccessible. Institutions of learning now adorn every city and town. Any one of the smaller states now has more colleges than the whole country had a hundred years ago. Universities of the proportions of Har- vard, Yale or Princeton may now be found in a number of states of the North and Northwest. From institutions of a few scores of students they now number as many hundred, and some even as many thousand; from institutions offering a single course of study they now offer a dozen or more. Their teaching force has been increased ten fold; their equipment, correspondingly. This marvel- ous increase in the number and facilities of educa- tional institutions is not confined to the United States alone. A like increase is to be found in the leading European countries. In 182a there were in England proper only two institutions of higher learning, Oxford and Cambridge, both of which were much restricted in their operation. In addi tion to these England now has such other large universities as those of London, Leeds, Sheffield, Birmingham, Durham, as many a s ten in all. These schools are designed to meet the demand for industrial as well as pure intellectual training. In Germany the number of Gymnasiums and uni- versities has approximately doubled during the last century. There are now in the German Empire four hundred and fifty of the former and twenty two of the latter. All these institutions in a country whose area is smaller than that of Texas. Nothing better shows the greatness of the German nation than their well organized and highly developed school system. In order to understand the unprecedented advancement of learning in the United States it is necessary to observe the great Education Bill of the Civil War period. This bill, passed just as the North and South were beginning the fiercest civil strife accorded in history has done more in re-unit- ing the belligerent sections than any other possible agency. In 1862 the National Congress passed an act entitled “An Act Donating Public Lands to the Several States and Territories which may Provide Colleges for the Benefit of Agriculture and the Mechanic Arts.” The amount of land donated was 30,000 acres for each representative in Congress. Senator Morrill of Vermont, who introduced this bill, was a man of broad vision. He foresaw the vast agricultural possibilities of our country, and its unlimited natural resources. The extent of ter- ritory, the climate, the fertility of the soil, the natural routes of commerce warranted the belief that the United States would become the world's greatest power. Senator Morrill saw that the country needed roads, mills, factories, bridges and railways. Pie rightly estimated that the State would be the most potent factor in training men to supply the various needs. By making a donation of Public Land worth several hundred thousand dollars or several million, he left no alternative to the States but to begin the work of educating their young men and women. In accordance with the Morrill Act no less than thirty-five Colleges and Universities have been founded and fifteen others have been materially assisted. Thus fifty Colleges have been established, located most favorably in the respective states. The broadest education has been brought within easy reach of all the people. The statistics of some of the State Universities are almost incredible. Cornell leads the list in most respects having an income of about a million and a half dollars. Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, California, Ohio and Nebraska follow close upon her lead. Some of these schools enroll between two and three thousand students. These state schools have had a most wholesome and stimulative effect on the older sectarian institu- tions. They have compelled them to become more aggressive in management and to offer students a wider range of courses from which to select. Almost all the State Universities provide courses of study not only in Agriculture and the Mechanic Arts but in General Culture as well—in the Classi- cal and Modern Language, in History, English Lit - erature, Political Economy and in all branches of Natural Science. They thus become competitors of the older universities in their strongholds. Kentucky received as her allottment of Public Land 330,000 acres. The commissioners appointed for the purpose disposed of this land at fifty cents per acre. The amount received, $165,000, was invested in six per cent Kentucky State bonds, the interest from which still constitutes a part of the annual income of the college. In 1865 the General Assembly of Kentucky passed an act establishing the Agricultural and Mechanical College and mak- ing it one of the Colleges of Kentucky Univeisity. The College opened in October, 1866, with a Fac- ulty composed of six members. The connection with Kentucky University continued until 1878. when the General Assembly decided to re-locate the College. The city of Lexington secured the new location by donating the city park of fifty-two acres and $30,000 in bonds, Fayette County supple- menting the donation by $20,000 in bonds. In 1880 the General Assembly imposed a tax of one- half cent on each hundred dollars of the assessed value of all property in the State liable to taxation for State revenue and belonging to its white inhabi- tants. In the same year the Classical and Normal Departments, and the Academy were added. The Department of Civil Engineering was added in 1887; that of Mechanical Engineering in 1891. The Department of Mining, Engineering and Domestic Science have recently been added. The property of the State College including eleven large build- ings is estimated to be worth $800,000. The management of the State College has espe- cially shown breadth and liberality in providing a number of courses of study, so as to meet the requirements of as nearly all students in the Com- monwealth as possible. The view is taken that students in the various departments—Classical. Agricultural, Normal, Engineering and Scientific, —will necessarily be broadened by associating and reciting with each other. They each learn some- thing from the other. They gain a correct know- ledge of the varied pursuits of a great industrial and economic people. Students thus educated form the basis of an intelligent citizenship. Men with such training make able legislators and administrative officials, understanding all the con- ditions and interests existing among the people. Although the State College is now well equipped, has an ample working income, a strong Faculty, and splendid courses of study, she has not always been thus provided. Beginning in a very humble way she has fought for every concession made her. She has had to contend with religious and sectional and factional prejudice. She now stands pre-eminent among all the educational insti- tutions in the Commonwealth. She has an estab- lished position. Her graduates in Classics stand high in Harvard and Oxford; her graduates in Science take high rank in Johns Hopkins arid Col- umbia; her graduates in Pedagogy fill with credit, positions as' teachers, principals and superintend- ents; her graduates in Engineering and Agricul- ture rank with those of the best Technological and Agricultural schools in the United States. No other Land Grant College has done such high grade work with so small an income and under such unfavorable conditions. There can not be assem- bled in the State a representative body of men, busi- ness or professional, in which former State College students are not prominent. Bringing together annually, eight hundred young men and women from every county in the Commonwealth, and turning out yearly seventy-five graduates, to be leaders in their respective localities the influence that the State College has, is beyond determination and must increase. There is nothing to which age adds more dignity and value than to a well man- aged educational institution. The Alumni Asso- 16 ciation now has more than five hundred members. The first man was graduated in 1869. This is a record of which any college might well be proud. These graduates constitute a strong body of men and women. But few of them have failed to come up to the high expectations that followed them from their homes and their Alma Mater. With such a record the State College has little to fear in the future. The period of her probation is over. She may now enter upon her career with the confi- dence of mature years. The General Assembly has recently shown its appreciation by voting fif- teen thousand dollars additional income to the College. No account of the State College would be com- plete without mention of the man to whose efforts is due its present prosperous condition—-President James K. Patterson. It may almost be said that the College owes its very existence to President Patterson. In 1880 when the half-cent tax was imposed, the sectarian institutions in the state combined to test the constitutionality of the Act. President Patterson represented the State College and won, although the ablest lawyers in the State were employed by the other side. Again in 1890, an effort was made in the Constitutional Conven- tion to abolish the half-cent tax and a second time President Patterson won. The devotion with which President Patterson has applied himself to the interests of the State College is almost incon- ceivable. He became the official head of the insti- tution in 1869. In length of service he is surpassed by few, if any, college presidents in the United States, in ability he is surpassed by none. A man of great executive and business ability, of profound scholarship, a speaker of great power—his talents are too many to enumerate. President Patterson stands without a peer in Kentucky today. The State College attests the greatness of its builder. ■npemn! Board of Trustees HIS EXCELLENCY, THE GOVERNOR OF KENTUCKY. PRESIDENT JAMES K. PATTERSON. EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE. 1905-06. DAVID F.

LET us enter for a moment the halls of Old State College, which resound with the tappings of him who hath authority, and after looking about us for a moment, let us pro ceed to wind our way heavenward, until we have reached that portion of the building, where says Juvenal: -Tegula sola tuetur A pluvia, molles ubi reddunt ova columbal.” We arrive at our destination, and after our knock has'been answered by a loud “come in,” we open the door and find ourselves in the presence of one whose name has grown to be synonymous with everything that is good, refined, and learned at State College. This venerable personage is Prof. J. PI. Neville, our own “Old Jack,” before whom the tender Freshmen quake, and under the sound of whose voice, even the daring Junior is brought to quiet submission. Pie is lord of the Classics. The fortunes of State College may rise and fall, and the tappings of Prexy and the scolding of Aunt Lucy forever close, but the name of “Jack” will go down in the annals of Kentucky State College, as a beacon light to those who will in the future, don the purple robe of the Classics and many a poor Freshman will read the following epitaph on his first report: “Lives of students oft remind us, We can ride on ponies lean ; And departing, leave behind us Footsteps, few and far between.” After we have paid our visit to this lofty retreat, let us descend a few steps and breathe for a while the fragrant air of Caledonia. We are greeted, at the threshold by one who displays in his manner the very essence of politeness and courtesy. This is Prof. A. S. Mackenzie, the man who teaches the Freshmen how to spell and punctuate correctly, and also instructs the dignified Seniors in the lore of ancient skrit, and tries to impress upon them the importance of the Canons of Mill and the Law of Distribution. We will now visit the last, but by no means the least of the Classical Faculty, the man from Deutschland, who can explain a problem in mathe- matics, in fifteen or twenty different languages. Before this list is ended, there must be added the name of one who has recently donned the toga of a pedagogue, and has gone forth to fight the battles of the Ancients, in prose and verse. This is Prof. Nevilles’ aide-de-camp, Theopolus Tole- man Jones. Thus ends the story of the lords of the Classics. May they ever continue to be dear to our memory, and may their good works ever be a source of inspiration to the sons and daughters of Kentucky. o-tj THE Scientific Department, the oldest in the College, has for its Dean, Prof. James G. White. When anybody, by a superabund- ance of knowledge and experience, has satisfied the instructors of any one of the seven courses, Geology, Physics, Chemistry, Zoology, Botany, Anatomy and Physiology, and Entomology, he may rightly claim, for his glorious deeds, the degree of B. S. Let us turn our attention to that department which treats of the deadest fossils to the liveliest centipede. Who occupies this chair? None other than the stately Prof. Arthur M. Miller of basket ball fame. It is here that the students are forced to lay aside all former prejudices, for as they gaze upon the animated face of their instructor and lis- ten to his words of wisdom, they can not fail to be convinced of the theory of the descent of man from the ape. “Who could not see through a hole in a millstone?” Or by careful and painstaking plod- ding over the scientific roads, paved with the stones of Geology, a student would attain his highest aspiration to become a geologist. At the head of the Chemistry Department stands Dr. Chase Palmer. How often, when the chemistry student had been conning and planning over something besides chemistry, instead of having the desire to go to Dr. Chase Palmer, had the desire to go chase Dr. Palmer. Alas! the poor organic students! How they quaked with fear and trembling as they stood at the board trying to remember the myriads of formulae. And his faithful standby, Mr. Paddison, ever holds before the eyes of “the inexperienced chemists” the glories of the ‘Venable” North Carolina School. Seated on the throne in the gloomy caverns of the basement, we find Peter the Great, whose “power and “force are “impenetrable. Profes- sor Pence’s ability in teaching Physics is of great renown, for few students, even by the greatest expenditure of “energy, pass through his work with ease. Let us pass from this dismal abode to a brighter one, Prof. Matthews’ Botanical Department. With the wisdom of a sage, the instructor extracts the sophoric essence of the poppy, and administers it 35 with still greater wisdom to his animated subjects. What other occupation develops the imagination more than the microscope. Oh, cruel orderly, to interrupt these pleasant dreams. Only the clang of that bell could bring the entranced dreamer to grim reality. Then, there is Dr. Pryor of medical fame, the needy friend of the football hero, and basket ball heroine. Even these celebrities could not have made the Scientific Department of our University as firm and powerful as it now is, had it not been for the earnestness, conscientiousness and ability of its dean. I o m ___:5 THE School of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering' was established in 1891 and since that time it has grown to be the foremost in college. Prof. F. Paul Anderson, Dean! has been untiring in his efforts to make this one of the leading universities of the south and so well has he succeeded that it now occupies a position in the educational world that is equaled by only a few of the technical schools of this country. Since our establishment we have not received the financial aid that would characteiize the growth of a modern institution but with our lim- ited means and small equipment we are compelled to compete with our sister universities that have better equipped laboratories and vast sums of money at their disposal. The student in this department makes such tests in the laboratories that are essential in the modern technical education and with the experi- ence furnished here a graduate is enabled to handle most any problem by taking advantage , 'of the training received in the class room and the experience obtained in the shops. The department was fortunate to secure the services of Prof. A. M. Wilson of Purdue Univer- sity, who is Professor of Electrical Engineering. Since his two years’ connection with the college the Electrical Department has grown wonderfully and the graduate of Mechanical Engineering now has a training in Electrical Engineering that will enable him to successfully compete with graduates of other technical schools who have an E. E. One of the advantages of this course is that the student receives not only a thorough training in Mechanical Engineering but also instruction in Civil and Architectual Engineering and a small nercentage of our graduates take up this particular branch of work, 33 The curriculum is so arranged that there are no vacant hours from the time a student enters the Freshman year until he graduates and this causes the student to learn to work. We contribute the success of our graduates largely to this element. The first graduate of this department was in 1893, and since that time we have established an alumni of over 200 with a graduating class this year of thirty. Each alumnus is mailed every month a bulletin containing the events of the month. One of the essential features of the course are the inspection trips taken annually. The Juniors go to Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton and. the Seniors go to Chicago, Milwaukee and Cudahy. In May this year, the Seniors will also visit Birmingham, the “Pittsburg of the South,” and while there inspect the mines and iron interests located at that center. lhese inspection trips are of great importance to the young engineer not only from the fact that they serve to broaden one's ideas in connection with engineering practice but also the fact that in a great many instances the student has the privi- o� ! cMf.Uf lege of visiting the company and their shops with whom he will afterward accept a position. The course consists of four years, beginning as a Freshman, the student takes wood shop, lathe and pattern work and a training in English and Mathematics. The Sophomore spends his time in the foundry forge and machine shop and higher mathematics, while the Junior takes up designing, Strength of Material, Mechanics, Dynamo Design and such lab- oratory tests as serve to illustrate the desired principle. The Senior deals with only such subjects that have a direct bearing on Mechanical and Electrical Engineering. Thorough instruction is given in Valve Gears, Thermodynamics, Steam Boilers, Gas Engine, Dynamometers, Photography and Alter- nating Current. The third term of this year is devoted entirely to thesis; and the student takes a thesis on a sub- ject that has a particular bearing on the line of work that he expects to pursue. The course is so arranged that the graduate has a well rounded edu- cation and a training that if properly used will enable him to become independent in the world. 39 npHE School of Civil Engineering estab- A lished in 1887 stands pre-eminent among the departments of Kentucky State Colleg because of one great motto and undeniable truth —“We get less and turn out more than any other department. Liberty and freedom are the landmarks inscribed in our souls and have been since “John Pascal Brooks” was crowned king of all creeds and sacred doctrines. Descendants of the “Old Civils who fought against mechanical oppression is bound to be free at any cost; he hates such tyranny in every form. “The Civils” owe their training to no magnificient granite structure; no elegant equipment nor to the terms known as “natural gas or a receipted appliance of “hot air,” but singly to our leader “John P.}” who little each year has retreated before the mechanical cannonading until at present we really own one “general room” (drawing and recitation) and a single office 1.5x6 feet and with more than bright pro- spects ; if sideral and solar time has been figured correctly to be located somewhere on the moon before Prof. Brooks has turned entirely grey from fatigue and worry. At the mention of the name of our leader, every hat is dropped and we stand only in admiration; for if ever a man was worthy of the title of gentleman it must be Prof Brooks. Pie is mainly occupied in merely remov- ing the obstacles which hinder the free and unem- barrassed action of those about him, and he concurs with the movements of his students rather than take the initiative himself. He can recollect to whom he is speaking; he guards against unseason- able allusions or topics which may irritate; is sel- dom prominent in conversation and never strict or wearisome. Although hints and slurs are often made about 40 “Civils” being neglectful, unattentive and negli- gent, vve somewhat prefer this method to that of other departments in the college which somewhat remind us of the Chinaman’s description of a toboggan slide “Whiz! Walk a mile!” And we must acknowldege although having some little aversion to unnecessary risks a one story ground- rent or a mere office in the roof garden of Mechan- ical Iiall is somewhat preferable to a twelve-story mortgage with a duly inspected elevator. For four long years “the Civils” bedecked in myriads of ambitious ideas battle and ponder, worry and strive with the many problems pre- sented to them for solutions. A year of hard draw- ing and crafty movements to escape the attentive eye of the Major; through the “elements” in descriptive; along the “tangents” and “normals” of analytics; sweet “moments,” “velocities” and coasting down “none-frictional plans in mechanics until Calculus is laid to rest along the vernal banks of the college lake ’mid the echoing heralds of a far-off nightingale. Through the “ditches” over hills, depressions and imaginary mountains the yearly Junior railroad is constructed while the Sen- iors engage themselves in observing the “vernal equinox;” designing seven systems from hallucina- tions of ideal cities or wondering “where they will be in the years to come.” “He to a man; attired in his corduroys and blue army shirt presenting the outward marks of a crude, rough and untalent ed foreman, must observe that of a man’s whole earthly possessions and attainments, unspeakably the noblest are his symbols, under which he marches and fights, knows himself as a scholar or idler with victorious assurance in his life-battle, what each can call his Realized Ideals. The work of naughty six is consummated and busy time as swiftly as it ushered the present Sen- iors into our class and lecture rooms on four sepa- rate autumns, 'mid the warming breezes which scattered winter's withered leaves, now presents the class of naughty seven. 41 r I 'HIS department was established under an act of the General Assembly in 1898 but did not take material form until 1902-03 when its doors were opened to the world with a gracious bow. Of course all great things must have an humble beginning. The giant tree that towers above its fellows and bids defiance to the storm, was once an acorn. The great river that winds its way to the sea, dividing states and carrying the traffic of a continent on its shoulders, has its origin in some small brooklets that ripples and plays among the stones as it sings melodies to its mountain home. Think what a civilization has pushed westward from that little colonial group at old Tamestown in 1607. The School of Mining Engineering bids fair to have its name carved high in the future history of Kentucky State. Kentucky is ideally located for a mining school. Kentucky is becoming more and more a mining state. She is offering a splendid opportunity to her sons and pleading with out- stretched arms for them to remain at home. Kentucky does not need immigration of foreign people and emigration of money but she needs immigration of money and development which will prevent emigration of her own sons and daughters. a development of the material side of our common- wealth. It means the education of mining engi- neers who can cope with the problems presented and take up the propositions at hand. A development of the mining industry will produce a basis for vari- ous manufactories which will give employment to the youth of the state including the boys who take up Mechanical Engineering and finally the influ- ence of the Mining School will be felt in all the neighboring states and ultimately be known throughout the entire south. The carrier pigeon when first let loose, wil wander in a circular flight for a time not knowing just what to do or what course to take: but when once it starts on its journey, it is sure of a success- ful route to its destination. The Minins’ School ..........‘•nil, - has just been turned loose. It is yet wandering- more or less at random, feeling the situation as it were. But with Prof. Charles J. Norwood as dean and with a determination to make the school a suc- cess, there is little doubt that his most brilliant hopes will some day materialize. Prof. Norwood is also State Geologist and State Inspector of Mines, thus being in close touch with the engineering life of the country at large. The mining student for the first two years is carried through a course closely similar to those of the same years in the Civil and Mechanical Engi- neering Courses. In the Junior and Senior years, he branches off into various subjects of technical instruction related to his profession, such as Chem- istry, Mineralogy, Geology, Metallurgy, Assaying, Electro-Dynamics, Electrical Appliances, Elec- tricity applied to Mining Operations, Steam Engine, Compressed Air, Ore Dressing, Hydrau- lics and Mine Surveying. That the School of Mining Engineering does not believe in race suicide, is evidenced by the birth of the twins. Have you seen the twins? They are at the rear of the Natural Science Building. They are very modest little twins. One is named Pete and the other Repeat. The twins have gotten sev- eral nice toys but their mother, the Mining School, is not as well off as she hopes to be and has expended her limited means as judiciously as possi- ble for their comfort. Among their toys are to be found one full sized concentrating table and a mad little motor which propels it; also illustrative equip- ments of mine ventilation, a model of a modern coal washing' plant and a jig. T hese are very amusing to the twins and they sav that when they get grown they are going to get all the appliances and equip- ments used in the various up-to-date mining plants of the country. The twins have a brother, the Lec- ture Room, who also has a number of toys and is in no sense jealous of his sisters. The ten mining- students of the present year appreciate the chil- dren’s toys and love to join in the play. Here’s to the Mother’s good health, and her family’s good health, and may she live long and prosper. OUR “TWIN-SYSTEM MINING ENGINEERING LABORATORY” 44 ESTABLISHED in 1880 under the authori- tative acts of the General Assembly, the Normal Department has had a steady growth until it now has an enrollment of nearly two hull dred students. It is now under the able and effi- cient management, of Prof. Wilford White as dean assisted by Prof. J. T. C. Noe, who received his bachelor degree at Franklin College and his mas- ter degree at Cornell University. Prof. White accepted his position in 1905, having had several years of experience as assistant in this department. Prof. Noe accepted the place of assistant in the same year, having resigned from the chair of Eng- lish and history at Lincoln University. Besides a four years’ collegiate course leading to the degree of Bachelor of Pedagogy, three sub- freshman courses are offered, viz: State Diploma, State Certificate and County Certificate. The Col- legiate Course is designated to prepare teachers for the secondary schools and colleges and offers some of the best training from both the Classical and Scientific Departments and furnishes a basis whereon its graduates may easily specialize in almost any direction. The sub-freshman courses prepare teachers for the elementary schools and most of them receive a training that prepares them to battle very successfully with the problems presented by their chosen profession. A short Summer Term is also offered which presents special advantages to those who are unable to atttend during the collegiate year. The number of matriculates in this department exceeds the enrollment of last year by over forty per cent. Owing to the increased demand made by this advancement the legislature was asked for a donation of thirty-five thousand dollars in order that a new building might be erected but the learned Solons of Kentucky evidently considered that under the broad canopy of Heaven with no walls to restrain him, the teacher would be offered better advantages of 'expansion.' They were, how- ever, favorably impressed with the exceeding love of our didactic brother obtained under his pres- ent conditions and while in a sympathetic frame of 45 mind passed an act granting to those holding the degree of B. Fed. the privilege of teaching in the schools of Kentucky without further examination, also authorizing the Board of Trustees of the Col- lege to grant state diplomas and state certificates after the applicant has completed the diploma and state certificate courses. The diploma holds good for life and the certificate for two years unless revoked by the board of trustees, the state superin- tendent or a country superintendent. Teachers who attend the summer term are not compelled to attend any institute. Beginning with the spring term the Senecas and Quintilians begin to appear on the scene of action. The magnificent mountains of Kentucky unfold from their bosoms a motley array of mountaineers who sally down on the sacred abodes of the college man and are immediately re-christened as “Nor- malites.” With this appellation he is immediately ushered into active service as a cadet. Ihis per- formance is usually superintended by a band of young “Kentucky Colonels” at the quiet hour of midnight after “Prexy” and “Rusty” have fallen victims to Morpheus. Thus he advances on the royal road to education, until he is fully prepared to instruct as well as control the hoys who sit on wooden slabs and persist in shooting paper wads at the girls. While the salary of teachers is not what it should be, his vocation is nevertheless a noble call- ing and we extend to him our best wishes for the success which he so richly deserves and trust that the sacrifices made in the choice of his lifework will be more than renumerated by that Divinity who rewards those who have a great work in the uplift- ing of humanity. | N the way of buildings and equipments A the Department of Agriculture does not rank with some of the more elaborately fur- nished departments of the College; but the thor- oughness of the work accomplished and the enthu- siasm for scientific and practical pursuits instilled into the students who pursue the course, brand it as one of the most important factors of the College. Its dean, Prof. C. W. Mathews, has the work sagaciously arranged so that the student who receives the degree of B. Ag. also receives the essentials of the Scientific and Classical Courses. The Freshman and Sophomore years are much the same as those spent in pursuit of the sciences. The honest son of toil, much to his disgust, instead of being immediately instructed in the art of grafting or having the fertilizer swindle ex- plained, is made to master German, dabble in mathematics and peep through a microscope at alge, fungi, etc., and trace the whole line of plant growth from a bit of slime to the giant Sequoia. Zoology, also, claims a share of his attention and for the first time he learns the names and 'families of his distant relatives. In his Junior year the “young Hayseed” is put in touch with farming proper. Most of his time is spent under Prof. Hooper, who has lately been added to the corps of Profs. Live stock is one of the things he would have you pro- ficient in. To do this the skeleton of Hanover 47 must be handled over with care. Next you are chased to stock barns, sheep pastures, pig sties, dairies and dog kennels, not only must you eye the animal but “handle it well to see if it conforms to the scale of points. Not one lovers use but one adopted by a breeders’ association. Feeds and feeding are also explained by him in a very able manner. In this study the student determines what food to give the cow to make her produce milk with the right per cent of water for his trade and plenty of salt for the butter. Soil physics too, he would have you know. The fertility of a soil, understand, is directly proportioned to the brains of its owner and increase in the same ratio that his bank account decreases. Breeds and breeding is a subject for much speculation on his part. Of all the theories and pedigrees explained, the only essential is that the “young bloods” know that as a result either of heredity or environments every per- son who breathes the mint laden atmosphere of Kentucky has a tinge of sporting blood in them, and that there is a future for the “Graft” horse in the Blue Grass State. Horticulture and Greenhouse management are treated at length by the Dean. These, if diligently studied, will enable the young farmer to distinguish between the true and bramble fruits, and if he applies himself overmuch he may be able to explain the difference between cucumber and watermelon vines. The most instructive year, however, from an agricultural standpoint, is the Senior. During the Logic, Metaphysics, Ethics, Geology and Astron- omy. The first three, dealing so directly with mat- ter in the various forms, are essential. Geology is important because it furnishes references to fer- tilizer works and adds polish. Astronomy is in- dispensable since upon the actions of the sun and moon depend the seasons and it is highly impor- tant to know how to central them. Thesis work is the climax of the four years’ course and by the time it is finished the elated youth has learned how money (does not) grows. Then, diploma in hand, he hastens back to the old homestead. And there, where he can listen to the voice of Nature and commune with Nature’s God, he spends his life and strength in the “most healthful, most useful and most noble employment of man.” D. B.

The jingle of their father’s hard earned cash, the all of which they had with them, could be heard from afar off. They went into the hall of the main building and joined the pushing, perspiring throng, were soon ushered into the electrically heated office of the president and presented with numerous slips of paper. After signing the register, they were sent to the office of the business agent to be relieved of their coin. The)’ soon got on to the ropes and spent their time in the study of English “Literature,” Plane Geometry and wood shop. In Plane Geometry they were introduced to the scornful, sarcastic Dick, who in spite of his rough manner was in the hour of need, the students’ best friend. After escorting this class through all the required mathematics he felt equal to the life of the wild and woolly west and accepted a position in Nevada, much to the regret of every student of the institution. Tn their Sophomore year, the majority of them met their Waterloo, and in about ninety per cent of the cases the part of Wellington was ably en- acted by Jimmy White. It was in this year that they met the man who occupies the second niche in the Student’s hall of fame, or better the second shrine in the Student's temple. Prof. Kastle or Little Joe, after piloting this class through metallurgy, he too threw up the sponge and accepted a government position in Washington. It is said that his children are sing- in g: “Everybody works but father, From Ma to brother Rob, And the reason Pap’s not working He’s got a government job. The Junior year introduced them to Prof. Faig who taught them the way in which the “little forces act’’ assisted by his two foot ruler and the quizzing, conscientious, irritable, strenuous Prof. Wilson, Beau Brummel of the faculty. Tt was in 81 this epoch that the “Poker Club” flourished and waxed great, consequently, numerous were the con- ditions in gymnasium and military science. The Senior year was ushered in with the rustle of corduroy trousers and the glimmer of “little white hats.” The Bub Hicks is transformed into the sport and Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. As this volume goes to press, the class of 06 is still struggling for 11.25 and the Colonel is crying in anguish, “Paul, Paul, why persecutest thou me. In Tune some seventy of these, the representa- tive men and women of Kentucky, will be given degrees and sent forth to matriculate in the great University, the world. May they be attended by every possible success and pass all the examinations of their chosen curriculum. 82 Those Who Also Ran Allen, Samuel H. Denton, Alexander. Almy, Edward D. Driskell, Edgar B.

Class of ’07 A sweeter story never graced the lips of human bard, no heavenly crown ever shown with more brilliant stars, no history has ever perpetuated nobler deeds than those that can be recorded to the young people who gathered at Kentucky State Colleg'e when the switch board of time was punctured with the play of September, 1902. Of all the noble youths that signed the class roll and donned the mantle of “07 or Bust,” but few have been crushed by the grit will of 11.25 and passed out on fares. Perhaps there never existed a class that could boast that they had never once suffered from the sharp sting of defeat. Their treatment was alike toward all. Never flinching from a battle with their dignified brothers, the “Seniors.” Always ready to appease the hunger of their kid brothers, the “Sophomores,” and more than willing to dry the tears of their baby brothers, the “Freshmen.” Our Scientists, Classicals, Engineers and Agri- culturists are the best that are to be found in any institution of learning. Our orators are great, our athletes have been broad of shoulders, deep of chest, swift of foot and ever ready to play well their part. To sum up all with a few sentences, a more manly, more gallant, more chivalrous class never claimed Kentucky State College as their Alma Mater. % Sophomore Organization T. R. BRYANT, President. G. R.

Class of ’08 Upon inspection a careful observer will see that the Freshman sieve did its work upon the present Sophomore class with the greatest thor- oughness. Not a name remains upon our class roll that, for any reason we could wish to have erased. Our roll bears one hundred and thirteen names, each one of which we are proud to claim. Of course there are some students who, for certain reasons stand out a little more prominently than others, but for diligent work and trustworthiness, the average member of the class of ’08 has few equals. For making such claims as these, we might be accused of being conceited, but we insist that con- ceit has no hold upon us and that we have enough to justify our boasting. A thorough examination of class records will disclose the fact that in intel- lectual strength our class is a giant. This alone might be considered enough to justify some boast- fulness, yet it is only one of the many good things that may be said of our class. The athletic side of college life is something that appeals to every student whether girl or boy and in this department the Sophomores stand with the best. Not only are we well represented on all the Varsity teams, but our class teams are hard to match. We have never hesitated, even when we were verdant Freshmen, to meet the teams repre- senting the other classes in the various departments of athletics. Only once in these inter-class strug- gles have we tasted defeat and in this instance we were beaten by such a narrow margin that the defeat was no disgrace. That our class is made up of girls and boys who are strong, not only in brain and muscle, but also in moral stamina is shown by the fact that we have broken the ice for the slow, but sure advance of the honor system as regards upright conduct in the classroom and examination hall. Out of a class of nearly sixty who entered the first year of the Academy course in the autumn of 1902, only a half dozen have pursued the even tenor of their way and arrived at the exalted position of membership in the present Sophomore class. Various are the causes that have compelled our classmates to leave us. Since the opening of the current school session, two of our most highly esteemed classmates have gone hence. The story of the departure of these students is all too well known, not only to the members of our class, but also to every student in the college. On Nov. 8, 1905, one of the most lovable girls that it could fall to ones lot to know, was taken ill and after an illness of only four days, Louise Steinert died. Those were for us indeed 95 melancholy days, and yet we felt that if it were the will of God that she should be thus early stricken down, we could say with the poet: Yet not unmeet it was that one like that young friend of ours, So gentle and so beautiful, should perish with the flowers. On the seventh of February, 1906, we were shocked by the news that our beloved classmate, W. H. Wall, was dead. A clear index to the dispo- sition of this young- man was given by one of his classmates while talking to a company of friends, when he said, “I never heard Willie Wall say a thing against anybody in my life.” It is gratifying to each of us to notice, toward the close of our second year spent together, that there is a well developed spirit of congeniality existant in the Sophomore class. We are well rep- resented in all of the departments of the college, and yet there is not the slightest trace of antago- nism between the members of the various courses. Of the classical and scientific sections of our class, we are especially proud, not because we there find any different degree of intelligence from that high standard which is characteristic of the other sec- tions, but because we find a company, nearly a score of girls, who for beauty, intelligence and lov- able dispositions have few equals and no superiors. We feel sure that our class is made up of students who are going to make their presence known in the world, of those who are destined to accomplish great things, and so if sometime in the near future you notice the earth rotating from east to west, just take it easy and say that some of those '08 boys are bringing their plans to a culmina- tion, or if you happen to catch a glimpse of some- thing passing over your head at the rate of 400,000 miles per second, you may just tell your friends that you saw one of the ’08 boys riding his domesticated comet.

Class of ’09 By Sept. 11, 1905, the majority of the students who were to compose the class of 1909 in Kentucky State College had matriculated. It is one of the largest classes this college has ever had, and gives glittering promises of' being one of the best. There were 147 in the class at the beginning of the term and many matriculated later in the month. Some of the students in the class came from other schools, some gave up lucrative positions in order to acquire the advantages of a college educa- tion, and many came through the arduous toils of the “Prep.” On November tenth an election of class officers was held. W. B. Murphy was elected president by a considerable majority; Miss Mary Rodes was the general favorite for vice-president; Miss Stivers was elected secretary and treasurer and E. Logan was chosen to fill the position of cheer leader. November 23 a committee was appointed to select the class colors. Orange and green were de- cided on as the Freshman colors. November 27 was the day on which the picked teams from the Freshman and Sophomore classes lined up on the foot-ball field. After a long and hard-fought game the score was announced as 4 to 0 in favor of the Sophomores, but it was a very close game throughout, and the Sophomores were compelled to resort to the use of “ringers” to make the score in their favor. Several members of the Freshman class demonstrated their prowess on the gridiron to a remarkable degree, and they will doubtless become famous in the annals of football in Kentucky State College. Die Freshmen and Sophomores came to- gether on November first in a general “mix-up.” This collision came as an aftermath of the prover- bial Hallowe'en pranks and it served as an outlet for the exuberant feelings of the students of both classes. Although no decision was rendered, it was evident to the unprejudiced spectators that the Freshmen had the better of the contest. No one was hurt. The class has taken very active part in athletics and promises to develop men who will become very prominent in college sports. Barbee, Edwards, Crosthwaite, Haff, Logan, Garvin, Chapman, Har- rison, Creekmore, Alcorn, Bennett and Scott are some of the men who are to sustain the reputation of the class in athletics. March 16 was the date on which a gymnastic exhibition was given at the college gymnasium. The Freshman gym. class gave an Indian Club drill which met with the heart)- appreciation of the spec- tators. There was also held on this night a series of competitive gymnastic exhibitions which were viewed by three competent judges as well as by the spectators, and were to decide the best all-round gymnast in the college. The judges returned a unanimous vote for Freshman Crosthwaite and this decision met with the hearty approval of the class, as was evinced by the deafening cheering which fol- lowed the announcement of the victory. Mr. 103 Crosthwaite had long been known as an accom- plished acrobat and athlete and he reflected honor on his class by his triumph in this exhibition. On March 23 Haley, a member of the Fresh- man class, was taken suddenly ill and was removed to his home at Paris, Ky., where, after a few days’ illness, he passed away. There was no truer or more manly young man in the Freshman class than Haley; he was liked by all, and held a particular affection in the hearts of those who knew him best. His memory will ever be preserved by the class and he will always be remembered as a bright and promising young man who was laying the founda- tion of a happy and prosperous future when he was so suddenly removed by the hand of inscrutable Providence. As we come now to the end of our first colleg- iate year we look back over the past few months with pleasure, albeit with a little touch of sadness and regret when we see the many opportunities which have escaped us, but we have come to know each other better, and those who at the beginning of the term were strangers are now connected by warm bonds of friendship and affection, some of which friendships will doubtless continue through life. When we come back next year to take up again our unfinished work it will be with more cheerfulness and vigor, for we will feel less like strangers and more like brothers and com- rades, each working and toiling for his particular success, but all laboring for the common good of a class which will long be remembered in Kentucky State College. Review of Athletics Athletics are on a boom at Old State. In fact we are just waking from a long lethargy, toward athletics. From every side comes reports of the brightest nature. Last spring the K. S. C. A. A. was formed. In the last fall it was organized. It is the object of the association to raise the name of Kentucky State to her proper place in Southern Athletics. As it (the association) shows itself strong enough the faculty will turn the con- trol of athletics over to it, while they will act only in an advisory manner. The successes, too, that have come to our rep- resentatives during the past year are developing and nourishing a spirit whose goal is “work and thereby win,”—a possible ambition and none too high for a Kentuckian. Mr. C. J. P. Lucas has been engaged to coach our baseball and track teams this spring and he is instilling into the minds and hearts of every student that sense of purity which we, as Ken- tuckians, should staunchly endorse. The prospect for this year’s baseball and track team were never brighter. A fixed standard for the awarding of the K’s has been made which will make that honor more prized than before, when the system of awarding them was rather loose. So let every reader and every student join hands in a long, hard pull and help to put athletics at State College on that plane where they should be and where they can be if every one will do that which their nobler self says to do.

Ill Dr. Schacht Dr. Schacht was the star tackle when the University of Minnesota eleven attracted the eyes of the football world to the Northwest. He graduated in Medicine and began a success- ful career as a physician in Seattle, Washing- ton. The eyes of the State College Athletic Committee followed him to Seattle, and in 1904- they tempted him with an offer to coach at Kentucky State. He loves the game and he yielded to the opportunity to train an eleven of Kentuckians. The victories of his matchless eleven dur- ing the season of 1904 will always be told when Kentucky College men talk of football games. He came again in 1905, and instead of training an eleven, he developed a squad of football aspirants—a squad from which it will be possible for State College to pick a winning team under the one-year rule which the faculty Committee has added to the College athletic regulations. Dr. Schacht’s motto was, “Work wins.” He taught fast ball and “a clean game. He had the ability to put giant spirits in little men, and football hearts into the heavier weights. He trained his eleven to play as one man in every play, offense and defense. Dr. Schacht brought the football spirit of the Northwest to Kentucky State, and he left his lessons of hard work and his love for the game in a squad of some forty men from which to pick a winning eleven under the new rule in 1906.

The team came into training late and played Indiana’s big eleven soon after Kentucky’s first line up for practice. Then other circumstances made it necessary to play a team selected from the “scrubs” in the hard games in West Vir- ginia and at St. Louis—the first team getting the credit for the results of these games. All hearts were set on the Thanksgiving game on both sides of the City. The riv- alry developed bleachers outside of the students and alumni and much of the fight between these rival enthusiasts was charged to the rival Colleges. The State College Committee, the team, the students and the alumni determined that the Thanksgiving game would be played under the rules of the Athletic Associa- tions to which State College had subscribed, or that is would not be played at all. The game was not played, nor will it ever be played again until Kentucky State is satisfied that it is to be played under the letter and spirit of the inter- collegiate athletic rules. But the year was full of football interest. The game against Cumberland satisfied every supporter of the team, and it was one of the most brilliant games ever played on a Southern gridiron. The Cumberland eleven was heavier by thirty pounds and these heavyweights were largely an aggregation of men who have held reputation for several years as football stars. Kentucky State was apparently defeated in the first part of the first half. Then in the face of defeat they rallied a wall against Cumberland’s attacks and put forth an offense which Cumberland could not stop. Along with this game was the victory over Berea, K. M. I., Catlettsburg, Marshall College and Central. Under the new rule adopted at State College, no man can play in an intercollegiate game until he has attended the College for a year, and attained a recognized class standing. This rule should develop a great team, a team which it will be the highest of athletic honors to belong to, and a team which will be made up of athletic students which are after all the best defenders of a College’s athletic honors.

The most critical admirers of high class baseball have been pleased with the work of our teams for many seasons, and all loyal supporters of our College athletics have been satisfied with their records. Our teams having been cham- pions of the state three of the last four years. With all but two of the champions of 1905 back; a lot of the future “phe- noms” to pick from, and good facilities for early training, we should easily make a record this year equal to the “fam- ous nine of ’03,” who won the championship without a single defeat among the strongest teams of the state. The success of some of our past teams has depended upon the splendid fielding, that of others upon the efficient “stick work” of the team and phenomenal pitching; but the work this season, to do credit to our “regulars,” should be the ne plus ultra in every phase. Mr. H. E. Read, manager of the present team, began early to arrange a schedule that will insure our crack team of worthy opponents, and admirers of the manly sport some rare entertainment. The list calls for good games on the home grounds and an extended tour through Virginia, West Virginia and North Carolina. Profiting by former experience, those ill sorted “foreign” dates have been eliminated, and many of our best games will be played where “Kentuckians meet Kentuckians.” When we expect to again demonstrate that the old state furnishes natural and titular kings of the diamond.

From a weak, sickly state and with a history unbarren, mainly from lack of succor, aid and encouragement from its parents, our delicate babe was really born at a small and uneventful indoor meet in February, 1905, when the Fresh- men sailed to the tape with a total of 38; the Juniors second with 23, and the Sophomores and Seniors tied with 14 points to the better. Late in the season she began to foster the experience of two large children and game to the end, finally our little babe was born into the ages of youth and sunshine by defeating the “Crimson giants,” not with a stone or mis- sile, but by artful movement in the big dual meet of April 23, 1905, scoring 86 points to the 41 of their opponents. We now find the youth about on the portals of eventful memory and his initial step was greeted by fatigue, being unable by ingenious labor to again defeat his “Crimson rivals” who stole a lead of eight points—a lead too great to overcome. From youth to manhood—the days were numbered and marked with the adoption of an interscholastic child—the Lexington High School—who enrapted in the thirst for glory captured the Blue Grass athletic meet on May 27. Greater things were yet to be done and mountains and burrows, huge and inspiring, must be captured and sur- mounted. That the days of upheaval, building and growth were on the wane, readily demonstrated itself in the big- indoor athletic meet of February 10, 1906, held under the auspices of the Western Amateur Athletic Union, when manly and vigorous condition were inducive enough to prove to an uncoveted parent the fact of being just as strong as our other brothers—football and baseball. At last! at last, recognition came; class rivalr} on the track reached fever heat and cheer upon cheer resounded from Alumni Hall, when the Juniors captured the meet on February 10 with a total of 63 points, closely followed by the Sophomores with 58. The pace had reached a maximum and early in the match demands became so marked that a coach Avas engaged to look after her wants and whip the “man track into the proper strait. In less than a week results began to tell, and in a little meet on March 23 three men were installed with new col- lege records, and on April 7 the track team captured nine medals from eleven entries, winning the college and prepar- atory relay races and Captain Schultz placing first in the open pole vault in the big Manual indoor meet. Leaving her here in the blossom of strength and vigor with plans to be fulfilled, accomplished and performed, we let sterling- merits prove to our interested and watchful public, and with eyes attentive to our separate move, we will watch success and failure as the phases of a beacon light in the far off landscape.

The Gym Team The making of a gymnast demands that the best phy- sical and ethical qualities be called into requisition. To become a good performer probably requires more time, per- severance, strength, and courage than excellence in any other sport. The graceful execution of an advanced com- bination exercise may seem very simple, but. in estimating such, one should keep in mind the cool judgment, the “nerve,” and the delicate co-ordinations, necessary to learn it. Those who have not experienced the peculiar satisfac- tion of performing difficult and graceful “stunts” on the horizontal or parallel bars, the mats, or the horse, have missed one of the most delectable sensations of life. The splendid physical development which such practice gives and the satisfaction of having mastered a difficult feat arc surely an ample reward. The history of the gymnasium teams at State College has been one of undoubted progress and success, each team having surpassed the preceding in gymnastic achievements. This year we have depleted the store of amateur “stunts” and have gone into what we may call the realm of research, embellishing the old, and inventing new exercises on the apparatus. The gymnasium has been a scene of life and activity. The galleries have often been crowded with inter- ested spectators watching the boys in the “lunge strap learning new stunts or performing, the simpler ones with ease and grace. The Fourth Annual Gymnastic Tournament, held on March 16. raised the standard and was the most success- ful exhibition ever held in Lexington. The solid gold and silver medal offered for the best all round gymnast was won by Mr. J. S. Crosthwaite, of Lexington. Kentucky, The second and third prizes were won by Mr. Short and Mr. Win. Rodes Jr., respectively. On March twenty-third we won the State Gymnastic Championship from Central University at Danville, easily defeating the Blue and Crimson lads on the horizontal bar, parallel bars, and mats. The dual meet held with the Lex- ington Y. M. C. A. was ours from the first. 144 Girls’ Basket Ball Team MISS VOLKMAN, Manager. MISS SCOTT, Captain. MEMBERS. 1906. Miss Wallace, Forward.

March 10. 14 Georgetown College ........................... 15 147 Girls’ Basket Ball Team The girls’ basket ball team was organized in January, 1906, with Miss Volkman as captain, Miss Pence and Mr. Bryant as coaches. Since its organization the work has been improving steadily under the able guidance of the coaches and gives better promise for the future. The splendid playing of all the girls as shown in the match games made it difficult to select the first team. And all hail to the first team! Everybody who saw them play at Georgetown knows that it was not their playing, but a misunderstanding which caused the score to read as it did. The interclass games were just great. They developed class spirit and bound ties of friendship that can never be broken. The classes may look back with pride upon this year’s work in basket ball and as they remember the days spent at dear Old State, one of the brightest pictures which will present itself will be “Our Team.” Girls’ Gym Team Ella Buckner, Sienna Fried, Eugenia McCulloch, Mary Rodes, eugenia McCulloch, Manager.

Who are they that arouse enthusiasm in college life, who cheer their college brothers on to victory? Who are they that contribute the soprano to the college yells? Who are they with their vivacious spirits lend the spice, the cheer, the glow to the atmosphere of college life? Hurrah, for athletic girls! They are the girls—the co-eds of Kentucky State College. What one of you will dispute that “The ideal co-ed is not a thing of books, With stooping shoulders and studious looks.” but a happy medium in the combination of a good intellect and a healthy body? For this reason, the first regular department of scientific physical education for women in the state was organized, January, 1906, at our College. Mrs. Robert Lee Stout, formerly Miss Florence Graham Offutt, a graduate of New Haven Normal School of Gym- nastics was elected director. A better selection could not have been made. For Mrs. Stout, earnest, consiencious and zealous in her pursuit of new ideas has studied at the Uni- versity of Chicago and at Yale. In every sense of the word, the College is indeed fortunate in securing so talented and progressive a woman. The work as prepared for this department consists of tactics, free gymnastics, heavy apparatus work and Gilbert stage dancing. It is “at the bars” where we see the tall girl triumphant,—while the short girl contents herself by standing against the wall with the rest of the “dumb bells.” But in the swimming class, she is ever ready to obey the director’s order—“Fall in!” Due to Mrs. Stout’s efforts, for the first time in any southern state, a department of swimming wf|| introduced into the gymnasium last spring. Great results are expected. Already, the mermaids feel that they could have rivaled Leander in his illustrious feat. Tennis Club MEMBERS C. P. McPherson, John Trice, F. Raymond Sill man, H.

The Military Department In all land grant colleges, one of the most important as well as enjoyable recreations afforded the students is mili- tary instruction and discipline. State College of Kentucky is no exception to the rule. Always keeping in mind the old adage, All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy,” and wishing to recompense the youth whose brain is wearied by hours of study, it offers him the most fascinating exer- cise. Haven’t you seen the boys smilingly tramp back and forth over the greens to the measured accompaniment, “Iiep ! Iiep !” or to the band’s more stirring strains, There’ll be a Hot Time?” From the wilted collars, looks as if they are already enjoying that “hot time.” Sometimes too, their feet seem held to earth by a more powerful force than gravity, and develop a shovel-like propensity for disturb- ing the outer stratum. But aside from the physical train- ing, more mental development results from a single hour of drill than from a four year study of the Fine Arts. Why, the cadets’ mind actually teems with poetic thoughts and lovely sayings—and generally overflows. But in all seriousness, the present regime in our military department is .the most satisfactory that Kentucky State College has ever enjoyed. Discipline is Indispensable and must be enforced. This in connection with a certain amount of instruction in military regulations is the chief object of these land grant colleges. The present comman- dant, Major W. B. Burtt of the United States Army, has been with us for two years, and in that time has done much to raise the standard of the military department as well as arouse new interest among the students. For several years, Seniors have been exempt from drill, but this year, the Juniors also have enjoyed this privilege for the first time, except those who volunteered their services and they were appointed commission officers. The hours of drill have like- wise been shortened from five a week to only two, which is a vast improvement and one deepl}- appreciated. May we not offer many congratulations for the splendid discipline and work of our boys, and wish that the future years may bring State College even greater success and strength in her military department? 159 Sigma Chi Founded June 28, 1855, at Miami University, Oxford, O.

Just behind them waved a banner, And ’twas answered, hue for hue By the colors floating o’er me On that pennant white and blue. And again, one glorious morning, When the monitress was gone; '‘She and I,” alone together, O’er the campus strolling on. Suddenly and unsuspecting. As we turned the corner, came On the president, who stopped us, And—oh! who would ever blame? Fer we said: “Professor sent us” ‘Twas the only thing we knew, “To the Science Hall to get for him The pennant white and blue.” Fairest trophy of a thousand, Treasured more than words can tell. May thy colors ever triumph, May it e’er with thee be well. years have passed us, And when countless And the old world forms anew. May there somewhere wave in glory yet The pennant white and blue. 268 The Football Prowess of Murphy A bracing breeze was blowing Across the football field; Every man his strength was showing As into his place he wheeled. There stood the the mighty Kemper With visage broad and grim, Besides there was McFaran Who’s inclined to be thin. There were many other heroes Whom you all know so well And among them the dauntless Murphy Of whom this story will tell. Soon Atkins gave the signal, Old Rodes went tearing on, ’Twas enough to make you shudder When he hit that wall of stone. Old Murphy in this scrimmage, Took quite an active part, But when at last he could get up He seemed quite out of heart. “Alas I’ve lost my teeth” he cried, As he rose all dirty and torn. To some it did seem funny. But him it caused to mourn. “Ye Gods above, I do beseech To bring me back my teeth, And on thy head will I bestow The glorious olive wreath.” Then Doctor Schacht was forced to stop And leave the plays behind, To search the field from bottom to top Poor Murphy's teeth to find. At last they found a nose guard Out on the football heath, And when at length they picked it up There stuck “silent Murphy’s” teeth. So Murphy put them back again In the place they ought to be And then stood up and vowed right straight The gridiron no more he’d see. So if you youngsters want advice Murphy can give you some. If the football field does you entice Just leave your teeth at “hum.” ............. ••• . ■- TO OUR TEAM ! Here’s to the boys that made our team, Here’s to their captain true, Here’s to the flag we love so well Here’s to the white and blue Here’s to our school through all her years True may her children be; Here’s to the hand that guides her course Here’s to old Kentuck-ee. CHORUS. Oh K. S. C.—Oh K. S. C.

MAXWELTON CLUB CONUNDRUMS. If Miller were a “Terosaur” of the Mesozoic time. And roosted in the Cycad bowers or frisked in chazy slime, And if he loved Miss “Dino Saur” and wooed Miss “Bele Mnite,” How many others would he try before he “Tri Tobite?” If a Dutchman dat ve all know veil had drunk von beer zwi stein, And eat un pound von Sweitzer cheese, zwolf pretzels ,mit French wine, And if his haar stood straight on end, mit face so very red, How many buttons would he loose before he lost his head? If Brindle of Maxwelton Club—in other words—the cow— Should charge around in search of food as hard as she knew how, And take P. V. for Sour Kraut and swallow him in lumps, How much could Brindle safely take before she took the thumps? ELECTRICITY. Air Moonlight. Oh! Electricty is h—1 to me I must confess. Oh! don’t also think you, Baron and Colonel too? Oh! Sheldon and Steinmetz Do me so fret I can. not sleep, But if he don’t cut capers, I’ll have papers On that day. CHORUS. Pass out my boy Twill give us joy, To see you knock him Out of the swim. We’ll take a drink, A great big drink; The transformers easy, Well I don’t think. At an open session given in the State College chapel a number of young ladies from Hamilton College were present. Upon their very entrance some of the S. C. boys became enthus- iastic, but when one amorous youth chanced to see that particu- lar girl who sat at the end of one of the benches, his mind soared aloft—far above the common things of life and e’er it returned he is said to have written the following:— Ah Beauty, how often thy charms have enraptured, How often have led erring Fancy astray; And when every tlio’t and emotion was captured, Have led them together in Love’s happy way! But never again will thy sweet powers o’erwhelm me With fires so intense that no water can quench, As once when I felt them, relentless, impell me To love the fair maid on the end of the bench. Hallowe’en Night October thirty-first; a time That ill may brook the artless rhyme Which holds within a measured lay Accounts of such unmeasured play. Yet, naught attempted, naught achieved, And highest hopes, if oft deceived, Will ever vanish, for Success Gives to the bold her first caress. The campus slept ’neath moonbeams bright, No sound disturbed this hallow’d night Till, as the ciock struck twelve, appeared A silent form—fantastic, weird— High on the college roof. Yet more, A dozen soon, and then a score, They gather, on some mischief bent, A ghastly crew with strange intent. 272 A consultation brief they hold— Right earnest are these plotters hold— Then all the band assistance lend And o’er the cornice one suspend. Slowly he makes the descent dire, Down to the great electric wire; Quickly to this a pennant ties— Caught by the wind it outward flies, And there aloft ’twixt earth and heaven Floats the proud emblem of “ '07; Another soon waves in the air. To gallant Juniors, naught more fair. But yet their work is incomplete, Soon at another wire they meet And there suspend a dummy boy Dressed in stiff hat and corduroy— The Senior dress! They dare deride And scorn and mock the Senior pride? Meanwhile assembled on the lawn Before Kentucky’s loveliest Hall A grim, enthusiastic, throng— The Seniors—Silent, busy, all. For high above,’ncath starry skies, “07V’ pennant proudly flies: That flag must fall; thus every man Assistance lends to aid the plan, To scale the wall, the flag obtain. And victory o’er the Juniors gain Right well and quickly was it done. The flag in triumph torn away, Then to the campus swiftly they run And work begin without delay. One amorous Senior lingers yet— Within that Hall—can he forget?— “Perhaps she dreams,” he murmurs low, Ah, if those dreams I could but know!” Ah, if those dreams 1 could but know!” There gathered on an upper floor, Bent on some nightly project mad, Hatless and gay, kimono-clad, She, with her Senior comrades few, To sec if ought “we girls” could do. Soon with a silent, watchful air They slow ascend the attic stair, And, careless of impending tricks, Carry the pennant of “’06.” Scarce had they disappeared, when lo! Forth from the darkness sprang the foe, The Junior girls, relentless, bold, And fastened the door so well we’re told, The Seniors all trembling and pale with fri Were imprisoned above all that lonely night. Ah, could he see her now! How fair With drooping lids, disheveled hair, And face expressionless and blank. Demurely seated on a plank. Her name in whispers he repeats, Then slowly, ling’ringly retreats And reaches father late the scene. Where long his Senior friends have been. The dummy and the flags were gone, Again the Seniors prestige won. No glowing emblems to recall The Junior prowess now remain, Save yonder on Mechanic Hall, “07” in the moonlight plain Is seen. But soon the figures fade As if by magic from the view, And in their place is quickly made C6” an emblem far more true, Then with a wild, triumphant yell The victory of the night to tell, Ts scattered quick, the busy throng To seek the slumbers needed long. That day was many a drooping eye, And many a long and weary sigh, This listlessness was of’t explained, Yet many a maiden fair complained That thro’ the night wild sounds uncurbed Her attic slumbers oft disturbed. And yet when memory, smiling e’er, Around us casts her mystic sheen She brings no other tho’t more dear Than that of happy Hallowe’en. Editor’s Note—We print the following poems (?) by H. II. Wilson at his request. He came to our sanctum and begged with tears in his eyes that we do so. As he agreed to purchase five copies of “The kentuckian” we placed it with this explanation. “JUST RECUPROCAES.” No. I. When is it that the minutes seem like hours? When is it that the sunshine seems like showers? It comes five days a week—from eight to nine, Each day it comes the same old dreaded time. Steinmetz and Sheldon tried, to me it seems To beat in seeing strange things in their dreams. y No. I, or the reciprocal thereof. When is it that the time flies by so fast? It’s gone before you realize it’s passed? You’ll never know if I am the one to say, For popping off you’ll find will never pay. A gentle hint I’ll give you just for fun: It’s out there where you hate so to get run. WITH APOLOGIES. I stood on the bridge at midnight Holding her tight by the hand. To save her was the question, But how, so far from the land. She had been my constant companion For the past two years or more: To cast her away without mercy Was what made me feel so sore. But why these tears, this sorrow? Why this feeling so lonely? The bridge was by the soldiers' field And “she” was my Latin pony. If a body meet a body Straying by the lake If a body cut a lesson What difference does it make? JUNIORS. Davis to the right of them, Wilson to the left of them, Questions before them, Nothing behind them, Into the jaws of Death, Into the gates of Hell, Every lassie has her laddie, In the Scottish ditty; If the college lass can't, too. Isn’t that a pity? If a laddie meet a lassie Coming through the hall? If a laddie chats a lassie Elizabeth and I The bugle call had died away, The sun was shining high, ■ As toward the Science Hall we walked Elizabeth and I. I looked into her smiling face— What sweetness in her eye. T wished the walk would never end For Elizabeth and I. We lightly up the long steps tripped, T almost heaved a sigh For here alas! the way must part For Elizabeth and I. How weary passed the morning hours. The time goes slowly by. Till side by side we’ll be again— Elizabeth and I. But as the evening shadows draw, And flit across the sky, We slowly from the campus stroll— Elizabeth and T. In Love’s celestial realm we move With heart-beats quick and high, Heavenly enchantment, will it last For Elizabeth and I? Ah no. The way seems very short, We stop, she says good-bye, When at her father’s gate we part— Elizabeth and I. 1 slowly to my room return, And in meditation try To picture future happiness For Elizabeth and T. I long to say the glorious words And receive her sweet reply That makes complete the happiness Of Elizabeth and I. To the Humming Bird O, little fairy with thy ruby throat And iridescent little coat, Pause to render just a note! Where is thy nest? Away you flit with agile grace, That angels worship in thy race, To many another flowering place With petals dressed. Xo sweet corolla ever grew Or perfume kissed the evening dew, But nature gladly gave to you— Thou dainty thing. And why so mute aerial dear? Why every blossom has an ear, And they’d bend their heads to hear, Tf you should sing. But like a Borealis light, Or as a dream of pure delight. You come and vanish out of sight, My little favorite. The Way it is Done Behold the way the Freshman works; No task there is he ever shirks, With dictionary, text and trot. Few are the things he knows not. The Sophomore drops the first of these The trot alone’s enough to please, Whene’re it with the text agrees. The Junior drops the text And reads the trot, When called on next— The Senior bluffs. The Uniform O kindly Muse! Thou wise old Saint, Lend now thy aid, help me to paint A picture true. No colors gay May brighten up the toiling way, For to the heart there is little joy In telling of the corduroy, But pray with truth, help me to fix The model man of “naughty six;” Guide thou my erring pen aright In tracing out this horrid sight. But not too clear a likeness make This we ask for the Seniors’ sake. In the early fall of nineteen five, When many schemes were made alive, In the Chapel corner like a hill of ants Was found a bundle of brand new pants. The students all were curious to know What this queer package held below. The Junior’s eyes were a burning red From trying to see o’er a maiden’s head. The Fresh and Soph were alike amazed While prof, and maiden sat and gazed, But to stop each questioning look The parson •turned over the ponderous book, And as his voice rang out its “now sirs” A face appeared from each pair of trousers, And lo! from out the motley mass Arose the boys of the Senior class. A uniform they thought to adopt One whose splendor would not stop The budding thought as it sought to wind From books of lore to human mind, A member bold from country fields Suggests a plan and then yields It to the vote of all the boys “For me” says lie, “the corduroys!” Of hoe and rake they seem to tell And to all will show full well How we mean to work and dig To earn by right the graduate’s rig. The plan was carried by heavy sway And thus they came at an early day, Not that the motive which prompted the speech Was thus so soon able to reach The minds of all—some most blunt— But because they thought it was “quite a stunt.” Another youth of sober mind A head gear of a useful kind Suggested to the Seniors new, “Now,” says lie. “As we’re alive We’ll grow to be like naughty five Unless some new and timely step May all our troubles intercept. Therefore, I do here advise A fiat iron hat of extra size Beneath its weight our heads shall grow Only normally and slow, No swelling then shall' mar our pate When the flat-iron sits in state. With one accord they grasp his hand And settle on the flat-iron brand. With uniform and hat so broad, He now walks down the college road And all the profs, do gladly seek To praise these Seniors wise and meek, While the maidens shrink (?) with fear As, the awful sight draws so near. Men and women of the town As they see him wandering round Lightly to themselves do wager That he is some country “sager,” But, let me whisper in your ear, Lest this modest person hear; Tis but a sham, a wise disguise That ne’er controls the laughing eyes; Soph and Fresh will both agree, As Junior also does—with me, “’Neath sober cloth and movements slow, Senior pomp doth live and grow.” 277 A FRESHMAN’S LETTER HOME. Lexington, Ky., Oct. 1, 1905. Dear Pa—I have gotten settled down in the dormitory and know a good many of the boys. I am very well and hope you and ma are the same. 1 am still wearing my old suit of clothes. They are rather shabby, but that is all right as I don’t see anybody but the boys. They have receptions at the churches every Friday night, for the new student, but I don't suppose I’ll go on account of my clothes. But I suppose it’s best any- how as I can spend that time studying. A new suit of clothes good enough for me would cost about $14.98 and it wouldn’t be right to spend that much money. Some of the boys mothers sent them boxes of cake and stuff to eat, to keep in their room. It is very nice and makes a lot of friends for you. The boys all loaf in the rooms of those who have boxes but I know Ma has too much to do, to spend her time on anything like that and I’ll meet all the boys anyhow latter, maybe. I am studying hard and am especially interested in Eng- lish Literature. In literature now we are studying Shakes- peare’s Twelfth Night. A company of players is going to play it at the opera house next week. I don’t suppose I’ll go as it costs fifty cents and 1 can study right hard and get as much good out of it as if I’d seen it. My roommate and several of my classmates are going, because the professors tell them it will do them some good. Don’t feel bad about what I said about my clothes and tell Ma not to think anything about what I said about the box. With best wishes for all, I remain Your dutiful son, Willie A Week Later. Lexington, Ky., Oct. 9, 1905. Dear Fa—Your letter came yesterday and also the box from Ma. Thank you very much for the sixteen dollars. I got a very nice suit of clothes, will wear it at die . M. C. A. reception next Friday night. Nearly all of the boys I know are going to take girls, but I don't suppose I will as you have to get a hack and they cost three dollars. You can have just as good a time I reckon, without taking a girl, but if you take a girl, you are sure to get invited to the next one, but it don’t make any difference whether I am invited or not. We are working in the foundry now and learning how to make cast iron and am studying very hard. Some of the boys are going to Cincinnati next week and see some of the big foundries over there. I don't suppose I’ll go as it costs five dollars and I don't reckon you’ve got the money. It will do the boys a whole lot of good, but I reckon I can pass my examination without going. Well goodbye, Love to all. Your dutiful son, Willie ATHLETICS AT PAT’S HALL. Oh, boys! The girls at Pat’s Hall have long since been your rivals in athletics. Shot put, seventy-five yard dash, hurdling and tumbling arc their specialties. They can shot put their clothes into their closets from the other side of their rooms with a strength and ease that would cause Mr. Summers and Mr. Brewer to gaze in won- der and admiration. As for a seventy-five yard—goodness! Not one of you boys would stand a show! (the nights, you know, are long at Pat’s Hall—the girls get hungry—The pantry is tempting—and—the matron sleeps not). Well, with a handicap of a plate of biscuits in hand and a saucer of butter concealed in their shirt fronts, they can pass the matron and leave her two laps of the corridors behind. Let but the matron’s light and gentle tread be heard while in the midst of a hazing, and the most marvelous and graceful hurdling through the lower windows, and tumbling under the beds will delight the eye. Oh, boys! you are not in it. Here’s to the success of athletics at Pat’s Hall. Professional Cards H. E. READ West High Street. Lexington, Ky. Landscape Gardener. Artificial Lakes a Specialty. H. H.

HOW THE MAIDENS OF THE ORDER OF SENIORS GAINED THEIR FREEDOM. A MODERN FAIRYTALE. The soldiers in their blue and w hite uniforms stood rig- idly at their posts. No smile broke their serious white brows. Theirs was a position of great responsibility for they guarded the Dominion of the Main Castle of King James. Now King James was a stern old man with a sense of humor, tho’ none guessed it, so relentless his decrees. Not strong physically, and tho' weak in voice, all powerful was he in his realm. None dared question his commands. He was known widely as a great scholar and many honors had been bestowed from the other courts upon this king. Among the many castles o'er which he reigned was the beautiful castle across the lake—the Castle of Limestone, an abode of many maidens. Prince Walter (then regent over the Land of Aca- demia was made Superintendent of the edifice by King James. A lonely keeper of kindly face and .gentle voice here enforced the laws of her king and held the captives close. On one condition could they escape the grasp of this person. A long and perilous journey through the Labyrinths of Knowledge had to be traveled in order to find a certain Sheepskin, woven with blue and white ribbon. When this could be produced then and only then could they escape. Thus these maidens d; elt behind the stone walls of the castle, bound tightly by the laws of King James. Woe unto them did they stand at the gate to talk with any Prince passing down the King’s Highway. Woe unto them did they drive tacks into the tapestry of their chamber walls. Homesick, with hearts aching for new enchantments, with longings to drink from the world without, these maid- ens were not happy. There were four orders among these maidens. The Freshman Order, the Sophomore Order, the Junior Order and the Senior Order. One night, when the wind howled and howled without, and all was silent and dreary within, the seven maidens of the Order of Seniors gathered in a room to open a huge box sent from the sunny world without. The contents of this box sent a ray of hope into those sad hearts. As the odor of the chicken, the salads and the cake floated out, brighter grew the faces of these maidens. Loud rang their laugh- ter, sharper grew their wits, faster went their tongues. Song and repartee filled the room, and under the spell of the fumes that arose from the chafing dish, these maidens .determined to do the Deed. Ink, Pen, and the Royal Capped Paper were produced. Twelve strokes pealed forth—Midnight! The Deed was accomplished. :i- :|: A- :!-• '•!: Trouble seemed to be brewing. A stir went through the guards. A guard with frightened eyes and trembling voice approached the king. “Your Majesty, seven maidens from the Castle of Lime- stone await at the gates. They desire to confer with thee. Very vehement are they in their demands. O, King; if ! hasten not back to them, they will pass through the line of guards without delay and come unannounced to thy pres- ence !” 280 •ww The King gazed in stern astonishment at such audacity. “Bring those maidens unto me!” The line parted, the soldiers of the guard stepped sti y ... to one side, and the seven maidens of the Order of Seniors walked with firm steps, calm faces and heads erect unto the presence of the all-powerful King. “What brings ye here, Maidens of the Order of Seniors?” , sternly demanded the King. “0, Sovereign King, we come with a petition.” The tallest of the seven stepped forward. “With thy permission, O, King, will I read this Docu- ment.” “Whereas, we Maidens of the Senior Order of the Castle of Limestone, having reached the age of discretion, do here- by ask thee, Great King, to look with favor upon the follow- ing requests : I. That we, the undersigned, he permitted to have the Castle of Limestone during the day for business purposes without asking permission. IT. That we be permitted to attend entertainments in the evening in company with any Hero or Courtier from thy court. III. That any Courtier from the outer world passing near the Castle of Limestone, at any time during the week, wishing to speak with us, he permitted to do so. “Hum!” The King’s humor was rising to the surface. A slight smile quivered on his lips. “Pass unto me that Document. And thus it came to pass, in the year of Nineteen Hun- dred and Six, a Document bearing the seal of King James of Scotland was carried triumphantly away by the Seven Maids of the Order of Seniors. “All Contributions Cheerfully Received.” Prof. Mustairie. . .. .

Gu. the mightiest of all the mighty potentates of that most wonderful land of Goozung sat in his ancient castle at Goozung and sighed and sighed. All about him were attendants, who at his bidding would do whatsoever he willed, even unto going to the stables and back again. et, to him, all. all had gone wrong since his favorite little Kinglet, Goozer, had run away with his favorite cow, Moo. to the. far distant city of Gozip. Again the great Gu sighed. One of the great tapestries, which hung over all the doors to the palace, moved slightly as if by the gentle spring breezes, and the dainty little dimpled Oueenlet, Geezoo, entered the throne room. Swittlv, like a swallow darts through the air on a summer's eve, she moved across the space separating her from her father, the all-powerful Gu. She climbed up on his knee, and put her little arms around bis neck. “Father, dear, she asked, “what makes you so sad? Don’t you know that brother Goozer will soon come back with Moo- And still the King only sighed and sighed. “Father, please tell me why you sigh so much;” insisted the little Queenlet. After one more long sigh the great Gu replied thus: ■“Daughter, I fear not that my son Goozer will not return with my cow. Moo, but I am afraid lest he meet Anhydrous Dave, who now resideth in the land of Kentucky, and who will teach him to drink many fancy drinks containing milk until he will use the milk of not Moo alone but of all ‘lie many cows in my fields. Again the great Gu sighed and sighed:— and he is known to be a wise man. 281 Our Library Confessions of a Wife—By Daniel Boone Bryan. Sins of a Saint—Ralph Vandercook.

WE WANT TO KNOW Why Chinn rooms with Dope? What brand Charley Mac Smoks? Who shaved “Crutch? What become of the Juniors on Hallowe’en? Who won the Senior civil heavy-weight champ? Why Eleanor P. elected Senior history? Who found Murphy’s Teeth. Where Skinny met Jenny Wrenn? Who grafts the Transit? Why the Seniors attend chapel? When we will get our library? Why the fountain is always dry? TRAINING TABLE. Pass the hash or prunes, please? From the indifferent tone of the inarticulate voice it could not have been told which was preferred and judging from the general run of the boarding house bill-of-fare (bill of no fare) the prunes were about as much hash as the hash was hash. The above was the usual signal given by the Grid-iron Warriors as they lined up around a table as scarce of victuals as K. U. on Thanksgiving Day. Team practice was being pushed forward, but it soon became a difficult matter for the manager to keep a football to practice with, for it became a known fact to the players that football air is as good as wind pudding, pig-skins as good as ham bone. The food given did not afford energy enough to insure a touch-down. The “boys” had tried different schemes for getting a sufficiency of food. A change of boarding house produced better results for only a day or two. A few even went so far as to mess at boarding houses, but this was hard on empty purses. This proceeding of things had continued for a week or so. At this point a volunteer, broad in extent out broader in sight, large in numbers but larger in actions and always doing something, authorized Dr. Schacht, the football trainer, to establish a training table at the best restaurant in Lexington Ky. This was the class of ’06. The training table has been found to be an important element in football tactics. Eastern colleges have adopted Ih is means of adding “beef” to their teams. As Kentucky State College ranks ith the foremost institutions of the country, the football team must also be able to compete with the other great teams. These tables are for the pur- pose of giving pure, solid food to the players, and only this kind is given. Nothing of an injurious nature is selected. Some cannot appreciate this equipment because it is con- nected with football, but it certainly is a good cause and is something to be proud of. It is elevating in its charac- ter. The training table of 1906 will be known in decades to come as the memoriam of the Class of ’06. It is usual for the graduating class to leave a memorial of some character. While this is not in the form of stone upon stone or rivets in steel the training table will ever be remembered. It has had a greater effect than these, it has piled score upon score, added touch-down to touch-down and made the weak, strong. And the '06 class is proud of it. WANT ADS.

In electricity we had old Dope, Who with the forces of nature did cope, And when he was dancing, That lost the girls’ heart beyond hope. Professor of Physics is Pence Who says that the studes have no sense He teaches his class About the centre of mass And a few of them ever get hence. We once had a Prof, named Dick, As a friend he always would stick, But he went to the cactus And never came backtous But we hope to hear more of our Dick. In materials we had Faig J. T. Who taught the studes the forces to see, With his chalk and his rule 1 le taught the whole school. That M equaled S I over C. Next in line comes Little Paul, With a bow and good morning for all. In class in Valve Gears He brought to the eyes tears When from the colonel he took a great fall. Scene: Senior recitation room.

(The truth of the following is vouched for by several persons). Some time ago, late one Saturday morning, Mr. McPherson did not appear for breakfeast. Repeated calls failed to arouse him from the arms of Morpheus. The cook at his boarding house, who was aware of the fact that Mr. Charley has been to the cadet hop the afternoon before, went up to call him. At first her efforts were unavailing, but at last her perseverance received its reward. With a groan. Mr. Charlev turned over and in sweet clear tones, said to the cook, “O, wait until I have just two more dances with yo'u,” Mahan wants to know where the propeller is placed on a ship—on the bow or stern ?

There was once a Mountaineer who decided that in the chase of the gilded shekel the coddling of the Alma Mater was of more value than the birch rod school of experience. W hen he arrived at the dispensary of grey matter boos- ters attired in a suit of armor composed of a black slouch lid, a suit of brown mountain jeans buzzards, a pair of “Oh! my corns” shoes and a tie that looked like a college prof’s nose that had been up against a free punch bowl, the portion of his trousers designed to support him, when in a sitting posture, hung like the similar portion of an elephant’s skin in a circus parade. This same portion of his trousers had as many windows as a cold bottle has bubbles. His face was adorned with a three weeks’ growth and a 15 cent plug of tobacco of the 50 spits to the chaw brand. His complexion looked like a plate of vegetable soup poured over a bas-relief map. The difference between his height stripped and in his shoes only amounted to the thickness of his shoe soles. The waist band of his trousers resembled a nail machine in a steel factory. He was selected by the dorm boys for the physical exam. When called for he jerked a gun that made the Spanish Fed- eralista cannon look like a broken toy. The physical exam, was put beneath the growing daisies. When he took his entrance exams he took to Jimmie’s math like a Senior to a glass of beer but on Scurdv’s English he took to the bushes like a dog to whose handle a tin can had been riveted. He looked around at the other studes and then got some clothes. When in his new clothes he made the late Bub Hicks look like a dry goods clerk. He had a little white hat that looked like a skimpy silver fez, a coat that looked like it had been cut down to save expenses and a pair of pants that looked like the back of a $4.00 hack. His shoes had extension soles sewed with red thread, giving them the appearance of plate XVII in Descriptive Geometry. When the grade bulletin went up he was all there. He would have made Solomon look like a prep stude. He took to exams like the horse you didn’t bet on always takes to the stretch. He seemed to have known, like Anna Izza Fake, what the questions were to be and he had a book of faking papers that would have made any Senior immortal. He even pulled out six of the studes who had staked out claims near him. After his first exam he always had a crowd around him that looked like the last car home. He then wrote a treatise on “How to be Honest Though Fak- ing,” that made the students look up to him as much as they do to a bartender. Along in October of his Junior year, a bunch of wise ones held him up on the campus and pinned ribbon on him signifying that he was it. After carefully pinning the rib- bon on him they all got around him and danced the Maypole dance. This signified that he had been elected “saw beat her cry.” After being handed the candy like this he didn’t quit but worked like an insurance man putting out fire, lie graduated with as many honors as an admiral before he is investigated. He wrote a thesis of about 10,000 words on capacity of “The Human Stomach in Terms of Cheese and Pretzels.” On commencement day before some 2000 people, includ- ing his parents, and some fifty brothers and sisters, he delivered an address on “Flow to be Happv on $3.00 a Week.” He was conceded to be the best what was. Moral—You can’t judge grey matter by brown clothes. THE ADIEU. Sweet memories of happy college days, Of spirit true, of love tp last always. Better the curtain now should gentle fall On scenes that are so sacred to us all. ’06’s FAREWELL. 1 he town clock strikes its midnight peal—time trembles on the threshold of another day, hestitates, then passes over. Commencement day! '06’s final triumph! What mem- ories of the Past, what hopes for the Future do these hours of darkness bring ? Back over four happy careless years of college life, my mind wanders, searching the dim vistas of forgotten days and reviewing alike joy and sorrow. Ah ! Memory, golden fingered goddess, thou painteth equally in rosy hues the joys of each of us and sinketh sorrows in oblivion. And now ’tis come—this last day of our last college year. How cruel is time! The very ticking of the clock seems hurried as it rushes the seconds into hours. Over in the East, black is shading into grey, and grey to gold— the dawn! The world is awakening, fresh and vigorous from its soothing slumbers, and ready for the mad industry of another day. Lower burns the candle in its socket, the flickering flame leaps high and bright in its last gasping efforts, e'er it slowly dies. So it is with us; the brightness of our Commencement day will soon be over; when the evening shades descend and night mists rise from the low- lands to the very mountain tops, with diploma in hand, we step aside for others to take our places. Farewell to the old life, grown so dear to us—a last farewell to our school days. All success, and more than has been ours, we would bequeath to those who follow us. And now, Classmates, we too must say farewell. For four years, drawn near one another by common interests, and side b3r side, we have struggled up the steep hill of knowledge. A pleasant journey is has been—the path, rough in places, but more often broad and unobstructed. The uplands at last! Looking backward, do n the slopes and in the valleys, we see others following; beyond, lies the vast unknown. Devious paths and separate, flecked b) sunshine and shadow,- strewn with roses and thorns, lead onward into the unpenetrable future. Would that I could pierce the mists! Would that I could dissolve the shadows and remove every obstacle. May the years deal lightly with 3 011, my Classmates: when the goal for which 3 011 strive seems far away and transient troubles blot out life’s joy, may the tender mem- ories of these college days cluster round you and give yon strength to conquer all.
