JAMES K. PATTERSON A •Hr JUrJf 72 wrrr% S - •— % .' w •. V ’ ■ •.: ---w PKrr' '«« •• •■■ •,-'- r-? a rj.-y .. .«• M.,. ■ ;•• s' President James K. Patterson AMES K FXNEDY PATTERSON was born in Glasgow, Scotland, on the 26th day of March, 1833. With his parents he came to Amer- ica when lie was but 9 years of age and settled in the southeastern part of Indiana, which was sparsely inhabited and where school facil- ities at that time were very meagre. He had no educational oppor- tunities until 1849, when for two years he attended a school in Madison, Ind. During 1850-51 he taught school near this place, and in the latter year, entered the preparatory department of Hanover College. The four years following he taught school and attended college alternately, and in 1856 graduated. For three years after his graduation from college he held the position of Prin- cipal of the Greenville Presbyteria! Academy at Greenville, Ivy., but in 1859 accepted the chair of Latin and Greek in Stewart College, Clarksville, Tenn. In 1861 lie was called to Lexington to accept the principalship of the Transylvania High School, which he held for four years. He was also Professor of Latin in Morrison College from ’66-’69 and of History and Metaphysics in the Agricultural College of Kentucky University from ’66-’69. From 1869 until 1.878 we find him President of the Agricultural College of Kentucky University, and in 1878 he became President of the State College of Kentucky, which position he has so ably filled to the present time. From the year 1878 dates the existence of Kentucky’s onlv University, and the history of its grand old President’s life is the history of its evolution into the position is so justly occupies at the present time. Its ever eloquent supporter in time of peace and prosperity, its ever ready defender in times of attack from its enemies, President Patterson, by his interest in this his life’s work, by his unlimited energy in making his school what he had so long dreamed it should be, has won a place in the heart of,every student in the college, of every graduate who knows the history of his Alma Mater, and of every true citizen of the grand old Commonwealth who can appreciate the effort and energy of a great man in attempting to attain his ideal. President Patterson received the degree of Doctor of Philosophy from Han- over College, Indiana, in 1875, and that of Doctor of Laws from Lafayette Col- lege, Pennsylvania, in 1896. Governor Leslie, in 1875, in canvassing the state to find the man who would best represent Kentucky at the International Congress of Geographical Sciences, held in Paris, France, naturally selected President Patterson, as did also Governor Buckner in 1890, when lie must select a man to best voice the grand old common- wealth’s representation at the British Association for the Advancement of Science. Other distinguished honors which have fallen to President Patterson are: Fellow of Royal Historical Society of Great Britain , 1879: Fellow of Society of Antiquaries in Scotland, 1880; Member and President of American Association of Land Grant Colleges and Universities, 1903. A few words here concerning the birth and perpetuation of State College would not be out of place, for it was the success of President Patterson’s efforts in this direction that stamped him as a man of ability, of undeviating tenacity and one whose conviction was not to be shaken by the many obstacles that beset his path. In 1880 he obtained appropriations from the city of Lexington and Fayette County for the erection of buildings upon the College grounds; was principally instrumental in retaining the Agricultural and Mechanical College, which has sub- sequently developed into the State College of Kentucky, at Lexington in 1880, and in obtaining from the Legislature a perpetual appropriation for the proceedings of yv{r a half-cent tax on ever}' hundred dollars of taxable property as additional income for the college. It was at this juncture where the greatest fight of his life came which bespoke the future of State College, and a fight for which he may jusly feel proud. In 1882 the tax was assailed by the denominational colleges of the state and one could only conjecture as to the future of State College. However, President Pat- terson, by his characteristic vigilance for his purpose, discovered their aim too soon and succeeded, single-handed and alone, in defeating their combined efforts. This great legal battle was primarily composed of two parts. The first attack of the denominational colleges upon President Patterson was when he was trying to secure the passage of the bill in the Legislature. His speech and lengthy argu- ment before the legislative committee on that memorable night evoked the applause and admiration of almost all the Senators and Representatives and of men from the bench, all of whom listened with admiration to the eloquence of the speaker. The second and last part of the battle was in the state courts, where the con- stitutionality of the bill was tested. The denominational colleges had employed the best lawyers to be had, but again President Patterson represented State College, and won. In 188? he took a prominent part in the passage of the Hatch Act by Congress, for the endowment of Experiment Stations, and in 1890 for an additional appro- priation of $25,000 a year by Congress for the further endowment of the State College. In 1904 he obtained from the State Legislature an additional annual appropriation of $15,000. The most recent things accomplished by President Patterson was his securing about $30,000 from Mr. Carnegie for a library for Kentucky State College, and also the co-operation of Senators and Representatives from Kentucky for the support of the Knute-Nelson Bill for an additional endowment of State College. Thus we have some idea of what has been the work of President Patterson. He has kept steadily on his way, his strength proving equal to the beating heat of the noon-day’s sun. This feat is the highest proof of his mind’s elasticity and sanity. His career has attested the truth of the maxim, “There is nothing so con- servative as progress.” President Patterson is a brilliant converser and an eloquent speaker. In every discourse one feels the glow of his personality, rich in human interest, enkindling in enthusiasm and mellowed by intense spirituality. When his powers are excited in speech there appears upon his face a light which is not accounted for by mere intelligence, however superior ; it is the radiance of something higher, genius we may call it, though it is without the wayward element too often characteristic of men who share in this quality. His eloquence is due not alone to a passionate earnestness in the pursuit of truth, not alone to his happy sympathy with youthful minds striving to enter the mysteries of nature and life, but also to a certain poetic faculty which makes itself felt in the spirit and structure of his discourses. In listening to President Patterson’s conversation I have always thought that here is a man whom purpose and circumstances must have led into the deepest experiences in human life, yet through it all, knowledge has only chastened his mind and intelligence has won for him admiration. He is gentle, because he is great, like Robert E. Lee. He has a wisdom that is born of application to duty and study. He has the faith of a seer because he knows the inherent potency of truth and has confidence in man’s response to Divine Love. You cannot but feel that this man has the vision of God because lie is pure of heart. In closing, may we note that the monument he has established at Kentucky State College is and will be more lasting than brass, more influential and whole- some than anything that the hand and head of genius has been able to achieve, a Jiving character close to the realization of one’s ideal of energy and love of purpose. He has shone as one of the brightest jewels to light the pathway of Kentucky youths striving for enlightment and excellence. He has been a most real and true conception of ideal democracy and general knowledge. A. M. K. 8 Editor’s Page i w W ELDEKS of the ‘hammer;'' arise! Peruse these pages and knock. Unless you do we shall be sadly disappointed. We shall have mithridated ourselves against your bitter pills of unfavor- able criticism, your accusations of “graft 7 your deadly doses of “I told you so’s” and your injections of ex post facto advice in vain. We have little apprehension, however, that you will disap- point us, for there seem to be two inviolable laws of a college annual: First, that it will not be published on schedule time; second, that when it does appear, it were better for the reputation of the editors had it not done so. Long ago we were told of the existence of these laws by one who had found them out by experiment, and who kindly advised us “never to have nothing to do with no col- lege annual.” Twice since we have been -told the same thing by others of equally good authority. With too little respect for the wisdom that age and experience brings we resolved to show the world that even if such laws existed they had ex- ceptions. Vain conceit! Our opinions have changed. We realize that our efforts have been feeble, and were about to say that we would try to do better next time. But, thanks to custom, there is no next time for us. We wish to thank those who have so kindly and patiently helped us get this work ready to pan off on the public, pray for those who are to come after us, and sympathize with those who have gone before.

The Department of Science holds prestige over all others in being the oldest as.well as one of the best in the history of the College. At its head is the eminent mathematician, Prof. James G. White. He is principal instructor in Mathematics, and also pilots many young and tender minds through the unknown depths of astronomical observation. There are seven courses, each with an elective major study leading to the degree of B. S. The elective majors of the several courses' are Zoology, Chemistry. Physics, Geology. Botany, Entomology, and Anatomy and Physiology.' The able exponent of the wonders and mysteries of rocks, fossils, and animals, dead and alive, is Professor Arthur M. Miller, who is at the head of the Geological, Zoological, and Entomological departments. To one so versatile in his attainments is due the respect and admiration of all students. Professor Miller, aside from his duties as an instructor, has proved himself to be the friend and patron of pure athletics, and his hearty co-operation and assistance can always be re- lied upon in any matter pertaining to the interests of the physical attitude. The domain of the chemists is under the super- vision of Dr. F. E. Tuttle and Dr. R. FT. Masson. Both these instructors have the degree of Ph. D. and are worthy exponents of the “great science.” Dr. Tuttle was formerly of the State University of Penn- sylvania. and Dr. Maxson is a graduate of Yale. The chemical library lias recently been increased and the laboratory equipped with a set of apparatus, so jug of which, can scarcely be duplicated in the South. Altogether the Department of Chemistry is looming on the horizon as one of the most excellent training schools in its line in our section of .the country. Professor Pence still continues.to have charge of the Department of Physics. For many a day, in his able manner, has he instructed .the? student in the wiles of force, energy, and matter. Truly lie deserves his title of “Peter .the Great.” The physical labora- RISING YOUNG SCUQNT ISV 21 tory'is well equipped and affords an excellent opportunity for those, so desiring, to obtain a good knowledge of the subject. In the “land of flowers” we find Professor Matthews delving into the secrets of Botany. His are flowery paths, bordered by rows of swaying poppies and lead- ing to an understanding and appreciation of the beauties of nature. The instructor is well fitted to train and cultivate the minds of future Botanists, tending them with a “kindly eye and soothing hand.” The course in Botany comprises lecture, laboratory and class work, complete in every detail, and the laboratory is equipped with the best apparatus procurable. Doctor Pryor presides in the temple of Physiology and Anatomy. Here, surrounded by grim skeletons and mocking death’s heads, he expounds to you the secrets of the human organism. Dr. Pryor is as competent as a friend of the ath- lete as he is as an instructor. He is well known upon the ball field, where his ministering hand has acted as a panacea for many an injured hero. In ail great undertakings there is a guiding spirit ; in all institutions there is a .man noted for his earnestness, fairness, and ability ; the friend of one and all. To him too much credit cannot be given for the upbuilding and perfection of the course he represents. To him are due the acclamations of all our students and to him we give our toast: Long life and prosperity to our dean, Professor James G. White. 1. And it came to pass in the sixth month of the seventh year, during the reign of James K. Patterson, that the tribe of Seniors, before their departure from Kay Ess Sea, did ascend the stairs to the chamber of the steward of the most high king, to seek his blessing. 2. And, lo! he was a man of single eye; with the wisdom of Solomon had he imparted to the youth for the space of two score years and eight the deeds of the noble Cicero and the chants of the poet Horace. 3. And when they had uncovered their heads before his presence, he laid his hand upon them and spake in this manner: “Haow, do-n’t a-s-k me-e to ble-c-s-s you, naow do-iTt; g-o d-own below and seek the blessing of the man from the High Mountains. ■ 4. So they departed and entered the kingdom of him wlio taught them to be scribes, and who was known throughout the land as the comforter of the innocent and the beautiful. He, the man of Caledonia, bade them be of good cheer and delivered them into the hands of Zembrod. 5. Who was in that day a mighty man before the eyes of the Woman's Club. The music of his voice was as an inspiration to the seekers after strange tongues, and as this tribe did file from out his sight, he gave his'blessing in the words, “Auf WiedersehnT 6. And there were left among the loiterers a few of the Senior band who were given into the charge of one deemed worthy by His Majesty. Theodore Tol- man Jones. 7. Thus they passed from wisdom unto wisdom and with tearful eyes pre- pared to return unto the land of their forefathers, for during their sojourn at Kay Ess Sea there had been great delight among them. 8. And it came to pass that ’07 busted. I CLASSICAL) J' . v . : ■ ’• x: - .... ■ iff• . ■y- m ' ■ ? Objection lias been made to the word ‘pedagogue5 on the ground that it was originally used to designate the Greek slave who lead. the. hoy to school, and was .consequently a term of con- tempt. But has the shift of meaning been any greater in this word than in many others to which no objection has ever been raised ? The word ‘school5 comes from the Anglo-Saxon •seol,5 and this in turn is derived through the Latin from the Greek word scliole, meaning ‘leisure.5 ‘Master5 was likewise originally ■magister ludi,5 and meant a ‘master of sport.5 It seems that the word ‘slave5 is not-much wider oi the mark as applied to the man who teaches fifty-seven youngsters six hours.a day in a little old ramshackled school'-house, on a bleak hillside, for twenty-five dollars a month, and “finds his own board,55 than is ‘leisure5 for the name of school where that ‘slave5 presides as the ‘magister ludi5. But there has-been a shift of meaning in all of these words. The school is no longer a place of leisure, but a bee-hive where everybody is busy; the pedagogue is not the slave that leads the boy to school, but the most important citizen in the state, who ‘leads5 the mind and the heart of the child in the development of intellect and character. It makes little difference by what name we call the teacher, so long as we appre- ciate his worth to the world. The thing to be most regretted is that the common school teacher is not rightly appreciated. Every citizen in the state i_s largely, al- most entirely, a creature of. environment. The earliest impressions are the deepest and influence our lives the most. The position of the college professor, the minister of the gospel, or the law-maker is indeed important. But the teacher (pedagogue, if you will) in the Normal School reaches more lives and has higher responsibilities than anyone of all of these; for lie it is that molds the life and shapes the destinies of thousands and thousands of boys and girls whom lie never sees through the life.and character of those whom lie instructs and prepares for the great work of the common schools. Prof. Milford White, who became Dean of the Normal School in 1905, has proven himself a most efficient head for this department. 'By his energy, his good judgment, his fine scholarship, and by his interest in those who matriculate in this department, he has gained the confidence of people all over the state and raised the school to a position of dignity- and high regard among the faculty and students of the College. Prof. A. C. FleShman, who was elected l the Professorship of 1 Vdagogy in January, is a strong teacher and fine scholar. He has studied in some of the best schools in our country and has had wide experience in school management and super- intending. The new Normal Building, which is about ready for..occupancy, is a thing of beauty. It has one of the best locations on the. campus and lias added much to the beauty and artistic effect of the architectural• grouping of the buildings along the main drive. The Literary Society has been a prominent part of the work this year. The teachers who come to our society are interested in literature as an art as well as a science, and some of the best debaters in the College are found in this department. Those students who entered the College from the Normal School this year have taken higli rank, the head of the English Department especially commending the work of the Normal School. wm Knowing that the greatest source of wealth, to the state oi Kentucky lies in the development of her agricultural resources, one would expect to find in her state university the course in agricultural science surpassing all other courses in equip- ment and facilities for instruction. Such is not the ease however. For a long- time after the foundation of the College most attention, was devoted to the devel- opment of the scientific courses, and owing to the lack of equipment and teaching force the School of Agriculture made hut little progress. In the last few years, however, the tendency has changed, agricultural schools all over the country have begun to grow apace. Where students were formerly numbered by the tens and scores, they are now numbered by the hundreds and thousands, and the agricultural course has come to be the best offered by many of the great universities. And why should this not be so? W hat calilng is more noble than that qf the husbandman of the soil, who lives close to nature and “holds sweet communion with her visible forms;” who “Far from the mad’mng crowd’s ignoble strife, Pursues the even tenor of his way.” From the farm has come a large percentage of the world's great men who once knew what it was to pull- the bell-cord over “Old Beck” and welcome the music of the dinner horn. The Agricultural Course at State College is developing at a rapid rate.. It combines in itself the best elements of both the classical and scientific courses. The erection of the new Agricultural Building, which will be completed by the beginning’of the next school year; will mark a new epoch in the course. Equip- ped with all the facilities of the most approved modern college of agriculture, there is good reason for the expectation that it will in a short time rank with Illinois, Cornell, or Iowa. 27 At present the department finds a home in the Natural Science Building, where the laboratories, herbarium, library, and offices are located. The splendidly equipped farm of the Experiment Station serves admirably to illustrate the prin- ciples taught in the class room. Dean C. W. Mathews, Professor of Horticulture and Botany; Prof. J. J. Hooper, of the Department of Animal Husbandry and Agriculture, and Prof. Gilbert, Assistant Professor of Botany, are well qualified for their positions. Prof. Scovell, Director of the Experiment Station, lectures on dairy subjects and commercial fertilizers. The Agricultural Course has many admirable features. In Botany and Plant Histology the student learns to distinguish accurately between the trunk and the leaf of the tree, and in Farm Mechanics to differentiate by its external appearance a stave silo from a gasoline engine. Nor is Animal Husbandry to be ignored, for tbrein it is learned that the horse is a quadruped and the horse-trader a rascal; that the dairy cow must have “the dairy temperament!’ and must be fed a balanced ration. A grand array of other good things might be enumerated if space permitted. After basking in the sunshine of Logic and senior History and having his thoughts elevated bv the study of Astronomy and being profoundly amused and entertained by the charming Metaphysics of which he is inordinately fond, the senior “Ag” is ready to take a job with Uncle Sam “at $1,500 per annum” or else go back to the farm to edify his neighbors by the latest and best methods of scien- tific agriculture—an honor to his state, an ornament to his community. MS [ CIVIL | - 4-_____W -I ■.... i«rr-j' 4i- This year, which marks the twentieth anniversary of the establishment of the School of Civil Engineer- ing in Kentucky State College, will witness the gradua- tion of the largest and. in nearly all respects, the best class of Civil Engineers to whom diplomas have been awarded by the College. For the past few years this department has been handicapped by a lack of proper equipment, and by inadequate and unsatisfactory quarters. In truth, our only asset was our dean, John Pascal Brooks, and it was due to him and to his refined personality that the Civil Engineering Department was able to weather the storms of unfavorable cir- cumstances on all sides; and to finally produce the largest number of graduates in the Class of 1907. In the fall of 1906 Prof. Brooks gave up his place as leader of our engineer- ing corps, to accept a more influential and congenial position in the Civil En- gineering School of the University of Illinois. The loss of our able dean and warm personal friend was offset by the advent of a new leader in the person of Professor Walter E. Howe. Prof. Rowe came to us from the University of Nebraska, and with remarkable accumen and energy, laid hold of the loose ends of the work left by his predecessor and soon had things in place, responding to the guidance of his hand, lie has made changes—indeed, it is wonderful what a change he has made in our present quarters, and how he has arranged and increased in utility our course of study—but in all cases these changes have been for the better; some slightly; many immeasurably. His aim is that of all instructors of Civil Engineering students, to send out men who can accomplish the big undertakings in the engineering world; undertakings which require, not merely the successful operation of a well-balanced machine, but the direction and influence of well-trained, precise and powerful minds. The Civil Engineer must do everything, from finding the number of acres in a piece of newly-acquired ground to curbing the raging torrent of the mighty rivers, compelling them, by the work of his hands, to obey his will. These engineers of Kentucky are the kind that are not afraid of big things. The Salton Sea becomes a mere drop in the bucket when viewed by the young graduate; the Panama Canal, no more than an ordinary drainage ditch. The mighty rush of the Colorado River may partly submerge his fancied power; the 29 fever and rough life of the canal zone may weaken it ; but there will he enough left to save the thousands of acres, of fertile land to agriculture, and to open the “New Door” to the commerce of the nations. The “Civil’s” course it not a “showy” one. A transit does not impress an out- sider as docs the operation of a mighty engine or motor ; the note-book has no available wealth except for those who are adepts in the art of interpreting its con- tents. Yet the advent of civil engineers into a country marks the beginning of its industrial activity; and the civilizing influence of the pioneer with the ax and chain opens the way for higher refinement, of which he is, generally; despite his necessarily rough outward appearance, an excellent example. In his freshman year, the embryo engineer spends what little time he can spare froth the contemplation of his queer-looking “Trig,” crouched over a sheet of lettering; but the next year he sallies forth with the level, and often succeeds in “checking up” a half-mile of levels, within three .or four feet, and begins to have visions of himself as chief engineer of the Trans-Atlantic tunnel, with a salary large enough to maintain a good standing with a dozen “girls'’ even at Christinas time. By the time he has “fizzed” on the second exam in Integral Calculus, these rosy visions fade and lie begins to bone: so as to lie able to get a job as roam an as soon as the rest of “the bunch.” Somehow he manages Calculus and his Bridge and Sewer Designs; then in his Senior year masters the history of his ancestors (to some extent), gazes at the ground with Prof. Miller in Geology, then at the heavens with the venerable instructor in Astronomy, and, his masterful thesis completed, stands with the class to receive his B. C. E. (on a beautiful sheep-skin). Thus we see him, rather inexperienced, and “fresh” in more senses than one, it is true;, but still a product of the Civil Engineering Department—the best de- partment of one of the best schools—and having no cause to be ashamed of him- self, his chosen life-work, his Alma Mater, or the degree she has bestowed upon him. Well trained—as all graduates of dear old “State” are; confident—as all Civil En- gineers must be; gentlemanly—as Kentuckians always have been and always shall be; and eager to combat with difficulties and discouragements, that he may finally stand forth as a pioneer and a leader in civilization. Presided over by an able and efficient dean, supplied with a comprehensive and well-arranged course of study, and rapidly acquiring a more complete and higher grade of equipment, the School of Civil Engineering bids fair to maintain and increase its important position among the courses in this institution. MECHANICAL What would civilization be if .it were not for the Mechanical Engineer? Think of that and consider the care that must be taken in developing one of that profession which builds up the nation, both commercially and financially. For this reason the Department of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering is by far the most prominent and complete in the College. Like a seed sown among rocks, the Mechanical Department was established in 1891. With nothing to nourish it, nothing to live on except the knowledge that it had a right to live, it lay dormant until Prof. F. Paul Anderson transplanted it to more fertile soil, where it took root and sprung into the life it deserved. Since then, due to the Well directed efforts of Dean Anderson, it has grown to be one of the most competent schools of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering in the country. Although the laboratory equipment is not so complete as in some col- leges, the student here gets a practical training available at few schools of -tech- nology. The Electrical Department, which in previous years had not been of much prominence, lias, since the advent of Prof. A. M. Wilson, of Purdue, taken on a new life and now offers an excellent training in the broad field of Electrical Engineering. Aside from the knowledge gained in Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, the student receives instruction in Civil and Architectural Engineering, which enables him successfully to compete with graduates from such schools. A few have taken up such work with marked success. 31 — Year after year new and valued 'additions are made to the department wherein the young engineer gets his first lessons in his chosen profession. During the present year an elegantly furnished room in the new annex was opened to the stu- dents in Engineering. This room serves as a much needed gathering place in the College as it affords the student a place in which to indulge in an hour of 'quiet and profitable reading as well as a reception room for visitors to the Mechanical Mall. In addition to the reading room, other needed improvements were made in the completion of two commodious class rooms and a new laboratory for electrical testing. The course consists of four years, each leading up by well developed succession from the time when the Freshman enters to the time when the Senior, clad in cap and gown, receives the certificate declaring him a Bachelor of Mechanical En- gineering. All mathematics are finished before the Senior year, when the entire time is devoted to the technical subjects, such as Valve Gears, Thermodynamics, Steam Boilers, Gas Engines, Steam Engine Design. Dynamometers, Photography, and all phases of Alternating Currents. The department has recently added a projectoscope to its line of equipment. This new acquisition greatly facilitates the presentation of certain prases of the work. By means of the projectoscope catalogue cuts, plates and slides showing the construction of machinery at different stages are readily presented to the student. One of the most attractive, interesting and instructive features of the course are the annual trips which the Junior and Senior classes are permitted to take. These trips are superintended by the professors of the respective classes, and give the student -an idea of the great field of work upon which he is to enter, and also give him a broader view of his work. The Junior trip includes a visit to Cincin- nati, Hamilton and Dayton, while the Seniors inspect Purdue University, Chicago, Milwaukee and Cudahy. Later in the year the Seniors have the privilege of an inspection trip to Birmingham, which is rapidly developing into a great commer- cial center. The third term of the Senior year is devoted entirely to thesis work, the selec- tion of a thesis being left to the student with the approval of the dean. In select- ing a thesis, one is usually chosen which bears a direct relation to the work the graduate intends to take up. ‘The means that heaven yields must be embrac’d. And not neglected; else, if heaven would, And we will not, heaven’s offer we refuse.” GOLD! More precious than this “King” of metals is the Department of Mining Engineering to the citizens of this great Commonwealth. How many have ever given a- thought to the meaning of the vast amount of wealth locked in nature’s vault here in Kentucky? Or to the significance of the number of mines in the state, of which there are,—including those of coal, clay, iron, fluorite, barite, lead and zinc,—more than 375 already in operation? Or to the relatively small proportion that the capital brought into the state bears to the wealth taken out of it, by companies composed of non-residents, from mines worked under the direction of engineers brought from other states? Why cannot “WE,” the sons of Kentucky, own, control and engineer the mines within our own state? These are a few of the questions to which few of us have ever given the serious thought that they should receive. Authorities agree in predicting that Kentucky will, in the near future, be at least third as a coal mining state. Think of what that means—the number of en- gineers that will be required to meet the mining demands—the large field that is presented for cultivation by our young men. Remembering that “There con s a tide in the affairs of men Which, taken at the ilood, leads on to fortune ” let us he ready. And. happily, no longer is there good reason to send our sons to alien soil to learn the combination of Kentucky’s great mineral vault, since we have, young though it be,, a modernly equipped department for this purpose within comfortable reach of our own homes, and with little expense attached thereto. By an act of the Legislature in 1898, the State College School of Mining En- gineering was established, and the nucleus of the department was planted in the 33 cellar of “Science Hall.” Today it has burst forth through the first floor of the same building, and on its branches are suspended the “Ore Dressing Laboratories' contained in the “Twins”, and the “Assay Laboratory situated in the “Cthiemistry Building.” Each of these laboratories is fitted with the latest improved machines pertaining to mines. The latest additions-to our laboratories are:'an Allis-t'haliners 3-Stamp Mill, a Y’ezin Jig. a Munro.e Slime Table, an Abbe “Double I rojan Ball Mill, a Munroe Classifier, a Richards Barrel Chlorination Apparatus, and an Electro- Magnetic Separator, together with numerous other additions to the equipment ol the “Assay Laboratory.''’ Like the old adage, the Columbia School of Mines was also started in a basement, and the Michigan School of Mines in a room over a store. Today these schools are known from one end of the earth to the other. Our beginning was little better than that of the above schools; we occupiec] the basement of “Science Hall” and had the “Assay Laboratory” on dry goods boxes. Today, although not occupying a modern building, we can boast of modern labo- ratories, with the prospect of a handsome building worthy of the name “Kentucky School of Mines.” If the various heads of the departments of this institution would lend a hand in building up this department, in a-very short time this state and college could boast of one of the very lies! Schools of Mines in the country. At the head of: the Mining Department is Professor Charles J. Norwood, State Inspector of Mines and Director of the State Geological Survey. A most able man, practical in all respects, and having profited by bis varied experiences, lie has arranged a eurrienlmn that, is equal to any in the country along this profession. So let all the deans of the various departments join hands and work with a will to build up this branch of this honored institution with good words and deeds, and make it one of the greatest in the country. Great, si reams from little brooklets flow. Mighty oaks from little acorns grow,” 34 The Department of Military Science under the efficient instruction of Captain Wilson Bryant Bnrtt, 18th Infantry, U. S. A., has attained a position of promin- ence and importance in college affairs never before equaled in the history of Ken- tucky State College. Capt. Burtt, being a graduate of the United States Military Academy at West Point, has introduced into our student body the spirit of close attention to duty and willing obedience which is the prime requisite of successful military organization, and for which the Military Academy is famous the world over. It has long been a recognized fact that a man, to become fitted to control other men, should train himself to cheerfully obey those who are his properly constituted superiors; and it is upon this principle that the military department of this insti- tution, like that of the Military Academy of the United States, is conducted. Captain Burtt, having seen service in the Philippine Islands as a First Lieu- tenant, is admirably fitted for the place he holds. During his service in the Phil- ippines he was obliged to contend with the most unfavorable conditions, having engaged in some important engineering works, aside from his military duties. In order to succeed in such a work, one must of necessity be able to command the respect and obedience of the men who are under his control, and it is this char- acteristic which makes Capt. Burtt so well fitted to conduct the military training of our students. The untrained student, fresh from the rugged rocks of Eastern Kentucky, or from the fragrant furrows of the farms in other parts of the State, is at once in- structed to carry his hitherto ungainly body in a confident military manner; and at the same time, to recognize the authority of his officers, who command his ut- most respect, and instill in him the desire to bear himself as a man among men. that he may become a leader of men. So great has become the desire for military instruction that even the young ladies, as they watch the confident, manly bearing of their friends among the boys, sigh for some change in the customs of the age that would permit them to participate in the alluring duties of the “Officer of the day,” and to stand Xapo- leon-like, during the dress parade, while the serried ranks of the male students march proudly past in “review.” But there is also a sadder side to the beautiful picture; and woe unto the misguided varlet, who, placing too great confidence in the efficiency of the excuses issued by the surgeon of the battalion, ‘‘skips ' drill in order to display his manly form and mil- itary carriage to better advantage while prome- nading the shady walks of the campus with the blushing queen of his heart. On Friday morning at chapel he,shall hear his name read out among a list of ninety-seven unfortunates of the same type as himself; and as the deep-voiced adjutant pronounces bis name, bis heart sinks at the thought of two hours of “squad-drill” on Saturday afternoon. Why on earth had he not thought that this Saturday was the date set for the cadet hop? lie is almost com- pelled to go with his best “out-of-town” girl, who is here visiting friends. Well, the only way to get to that dance is to let the “squad-drill” go until next Saturday, when it will be four hours instead of two, as an additional penalty for skip- ping this week. Besides, next week he must go to the Vanderbilt base ball game on Saturday, because he 'simply can't afford to miss that. So he “skips” again, and finally pays for bis hour’s stroll by “squad-drilling” eight hours, and is con- sequently “sore and sad’ for the better part of a month. Truly, the course in military science is an instructive one. He learns at last to subject him- self to discipline, and consequently to avoid the unpleasantness of these things. He goes on an encampment and learns something of what the regular army was “up against” just before the great beef scandal, and also learns to subsist on very little food and an abundance of healthful exercise. He and about ninety-five per cent of his comrades learn, before the first two days have passed, that the attractive power of a cadet uniform on 'the affections of the young ladies of the neighborhood is too great to be expressed in foot-pounds, or any other terms of which .he knows. . , BV the time he has completed the course in this science he fully realizes now much it has done towards rounding out his character, making him confident in himself, and developing his traits of self-respect and manliness. He cannot now help beiim- an admirer and friend of his commandant, and it is always with feelings of gratitude towards him that the student recalls the days spent in the study of the principles of military science.

Annual Banquet, Wednesday, June 5th, 1007 41 The I 7 th of October XI HSTCE morning the Juniors'’ impenetrable countenances had worn smiles. When they cut the wires in ’06 at the Junior Prom, fearing lest an overdose of electricity might go through their systems, their brows were dark; but on the 17th of October they were gay. The greatest, when doomed, present these contradictions. From the previous evening, and in the night until 1 o’clock, they had been ex- ploring the boiler house. At length their leader protruded his head into the smoke- stack and saw that there was a ladder within, extending to the top. I-Ie stopped and remained some time motionless; and this fatalist was heard to utter in the darkness these mysterious words; “We are in accord.” Guy Roscoe was deceived. They were no longer in accord. At 2 :30 this ladder had been scaled and ’OS’s colors planted on the heights of the smoke-stack. On the morning of the 17th, then, the Juniors were satisfied. They were right. The plan of battle which they had conceived was indeed admirable. Their colors proudly floated in the breezes from the top of a 75-foot stack. The only avenue of attack by which this position could he gained was the iron ladder within. But this was rendered useless to the Seniors. A fire had been kindled in the furnaces early in the morning, rendering ascent of the lad- der, at all times difficult, now impossible. At 9 o’clock the Juniors, noticing that the smoke had ceased to issue from the crater to which was bound the pride of their hearts, put a question to the fireman, Tom Aubery. They asked him if he had pulled the fires. The “guy” answered no. It may almost be said that from this shake of a peasant’s head came the catastrophe of the class of ’OS. Let us see what had happened on the part of the Seniors. After making a feint at going to first hour classes, they had fallen back upon the third floor of the New Dorm. A council of war was held, a plan of battle formed. The first company of Heavy Topers was detailed to attack the Chateau de Billy Caden, thereby drawing • the fireman from his post and rendering him hors de combat. A regiment of the Heavenly Dwellers was sent to seize the boiler house, barricade the doors, and 'extinguish the fires. The great deed of heroism yet remained to be performed. To win the day, to remove the flag, some one must pass up through that long shaft, foul with sulphurous fumes and finely divided carbon. To ask this of any one, was unfair. There was a pause. Then up sprang Marshall Woggle B. Boggess, who so often, single-handed, armed lr with liis kodak alone;, had with dauntless courage faced a whole hew of those foes before whom even the lion-hearted Miles Stand ish quailed. “I with one man.” said he, “will scale the dizzy height and remove that object which insults our dig- nity.” The veteran Pete asked to be allowed the honor of attending the Woggle. •They were chosen. “Long live ’07,” shouted the whole army as these two heroes joined the regiment of Heavenly Dwellers and marched to the “firing” line. The Seniors had made their barricade; they had pulled the fires; they were waiting for the furnace to cool enough to permit of one’s entrance. They were deliberate. They were accurate. The Juniors were now well aware that their fire was out, and hoping to retake the boiler house before any Senior was beyond their reach on the road to their flag, they made a desperate charge on the bouse. At this juncture the Senior reserves issued in a body from the third floor, and then began the fiercest part of the battle. The Seniors made a stand before the doors and win- dows of the house. The Juniors try to dislodge them and gain an entrance. They grapple and roll together in the dust and upon the grass; shirts are torn in shreils; noses bleed; eves are blacked; “wind” is cut off. “R. R.” Earle’s artillery opens a cannonade on the windows, doing great damage, but accomplishing little, for lathes had been piled behind them so that they could not be passed. The hope of the Juniors now lay in capturing the door. They form to make the last charge. Guv lloscoe Veal, bleeding from twenty wounds, his shirt torn, is at their head. He gives the word of command and with an old piece of gas pipe raised aloft, advances. He has almost reached the door, when some one “swats him behind the ear; he suddenly drops the pipe and forgets his purpose. Just now a shout is heard. Woggle has reached the flag and is loosening it from its position. It trembles a moment as if hesitating to take its awful fall, then plunges down, and is rent asunder by the warring hosts below. This Waterloo of .Junior aspirations was rot a battle; it was a change of the front of Tom Auberv’s boiler-house. POST PROELlI'M Junior-Senior Football Game T all happened on November 7th, 1906. There were the usual distinguishing features, the usual reasons to? the outcome, and the inevitable result—’07 won. From the beginning of practice the Seniors worked in the wrv that had won all the class games in their history, and built up the, team that wiped up the dust with their opponents, so that none of it might soil the fair banner of orange and white, which had never been lowered to any class since it was first raised. The co-eds were there, long before the game started : their belts of orange and dresses of white making a picture that was beautiful in the eyes of all, especially ’07 men. ft took just three minutes for the first touchdown by the Seniors. Another followed before long, and right heartily did the cheering voices of the girls count— “Nine”—“Ten” “Eleven! Just to make things more exciting, ’08 scored a touchdown, and so ended the first half with the “'Orange and White” six points above the “Black and Gold.” In the second half, the game resolved itself into a printing contest, in which ’07 still had some advantage. A drop kick by the Seniors failed to start in the right direction, and the war waged up and down the field. Time for the second half was called before either side scored. Score—Seniors, 11; Juniors, 5. The Juniors, as usual, played a. hard game individually, and proved to he no easy opponents, but their playing lacked the unity of team work which was char- acteristic of the Seniors’ game. Bodes and Bean played a star game, but nothing could stop “Bed” Woodward when he, well interfered and supported by the other TT JUNIOR TEAM backs, came through the line. The Senior ends were not to be circled and the line held fast under every shock, so that not once did the Junior team gain the neces- sary ten yards. Sadly the Juniors wended their ways homeward, with the ringing shouts of “Naughtv-seven” assailing their ears, while the Woggle-bug’ got busy and pro- ceeded to take innumerable pictures of the ’07 girls. Long years shall pass before the Senior's mind shall cease to hold a picture of the little crowd of girls, proudly upholding the beloved emblem of the class for whose honor these eleven of her strongest men bad, that day, fought with all their power and skill: urged on solely by their love for her—and won. SENIOR GIRLS Frehsman-Sophomore Flag Rush T'S an old adage, and a true one, that “pride gocth before a fall, ’ and never better exemplified than in the case of the Freshman class last October. Never before in the history of the college bad such a fresh conglomeration of unsophistocated youngsters entered its sacred por- tals and marred its classic halls with their vain-glorious verdancy. Like the babe in possession of its first toy. they cooed and crowed in blissful igno- rance, unmindful of the horrible surprises the future liad in store for them. 1 hey lived in the happy present, and it is fortunate for them that they did. for since that time woe and desolation has been 'their miserable lot. Scarcely had the collegiate year opened, when red rags began to appear on every side. After some investigation it was found that these were the colors of the class of ’10. Following this move a tdijprge was sent to the Sophomore class for a flag rush, to be governed by agreed rules and to be begun at a stipulated time. Hardly was the ink dry on the document when a ringing reply was made, conditions were fixed, the date decided upon and the college settled down to talk and discuss and talk again of the approaching combat. All was excitement. Groups ot students could be seen at every turn discussing with great interest the chances of both classes. Could. 75 Sophs take down the flag to be defended l v 150 Freshies? Would strat- egy triumph over strength, or would, the out-numbered upper-classmen go down in defeat ? These were momentous questions. At last the day of the fight arrived. Flying in the October breeze were the colors of TO, high on a telephone pole, firmly fixed by hopeful hands ; beneath them in a compact group stood their brave defenders; nearby the clear voices and fair faces of the Freshmen co-eds urged the doughty warriors on to victory. But. look, yonder from the gymnasium comes the little group of courageous Sophs. Stern experience has taught them lessons that the Freshies do not know, and in this lies their only hope of success. They form a wedge. Breaking into a light trot at the door of the Main Building, they gradually increase their speed till they meet their SOPHOMORE RUSH FRESHMAN TEAM Tn the second half the Freshman Estill bucked through several times for long gains, and he was easily the star of the game. Finally time was up and the Soph- omores had won by their team work. This was something the Freshmen lacked, but they made the game interesting by their individual playing. Looking backward, at things which have happened soften many of the hard points, but still after the close of the game the quantity of chips on the shoulders of each class was almost out of proportion to the number of members. Failures differ. Good things fail as well as bad. Success and failure are not measures by which to judge. So it happens that the success of one class and the failure of another does not signify how hard the battle was. COLLEGE CLOTHES LINE BUNNY” ON THE WIRE Freshman-Sophomore Football Game IT would naturally seem that after such a struggle as was endured by both classes m the Freshman-Sophpmore Flag Bush these two youthful bands would not have been so anxious for another battle of any kind. Nevertheless, with the sears of the previous “scrap” barely healed, eleven lusty members of each class met on the gridiron in a struggle for supremacy in the handling of the “pigskin.” Since these two classes had such a pronounced antipathy for each other the game drew quite a crowd, and anyhow the gate receipts were to he handed over to charity. Ever since ancient times when tax collectors and ticket takers were held as sinners, humanity as a whole has endeavored to avoid paying at the gate. At this interesting game every one succeeded in doing this. The Freshmen commenced at once an advance which they steadily kept up until within a dangerous nearness to the goal. Then the plucky “two-year-olds cast them hack. Again and again this was the case, and after six minutes of fast and hard playing the Sophomores, through their player Creek more, made the first and only touchdown. The playing varied from then until the end of the first' half. i Between the halves a great bit of chaff and “hot air” was exchanged between the rooters of both sides. Abstractly considered, hot air is a term of disrepute in America, and pure air is favored, hut in practice this valuation is usually reversed, not only in public, business, but also conveyances, and in foot ball games. There- fore we score several points for the girls of both classes. SOPHOMORE TEAM Misses Frost. Walker, Fried, Pence, Wanless, McCandless, Allen. We thought at first that we would write an account of this game, but have decided that it is necessary only to say that the score was 10 to 8. The pictures tell the rest.

He is said to be the idol of a certain Patterson Hall girl’s heart; yet Boggess assures us that this is only an idle rumor. FEED JONES RANKIN. B. M. E. Monticello, Ivy. Tan Beta Pi; Union.

M.” Lexington, Ky. Senior mascot. We place his picture among our own as being the only member of this bunch— male member, of course—who has any pretensions at all to good looks, and with whom ail the girls are in love, and not ashamed to admit it. 4 Senior History the beginning, or to be more accurate, in September, 1900, “Kitty” ifSSill Karsner and “Hilley” entered the First Prep, imbued with the idea that at the far distant date of June, 1900, they would graduate and go back to “the dear old farm.” But they were young and knew not what was best. When they were older they realized their mistake and made haste to get in line for ’07 or “bust.” In 1901 a mighty sound was heard. Jack Dodd, with his brass lungs, had arrived and was trying to make John IDs ears drink in the mellifluous sounds that issued from bis throat in explaining some rule in Patterson’s Grammar. At this time also, Bob Hart left Pisgah and came down to get a closer view of the promised land. Next came “Capus” Donan, in 1902, from the land where hoop-poles and feed-baskets are legal tender, and about the same time “Pup” Hamilton crept from his kennel and struck a hoi trail for K. S. ('., having smelled P. C. Grunwell, who had left his Maryland to hide him- self away in the catacombs of Walter K.. “Beef” Brewer, “Bill Ed” Sprague, and “Little” Schoene decided that Roark’s side-door worked easier on its hinges than the cellar-door which led from the Prep to the ground floor of college, and so said. “Us for the side-door!” All these men passed safely through the ordeal known as “final exams,” and stood ready to welcome the vast throng of comrades-to-be who came in the fall of 1903 to form the since famous class of ’07. On a bright day in September, the class met for the first time in Sandy’s room,-at 8:30 a. m. (Morpheus has since been cheated out of this half-hour. ) Our instructor, addressing us for a few moments in accents to us then unfamiliar, in his inimitable way of weaving into his discourse whatever happens to come to hand, no matter how remotely connected with the subject under consideration it may seem to be, presently drew forth a picture representing two babes of a very tender age swinging by their hands from a stick held overhead. This, he said, tended to show man’s descent from lower forms; and by making monkeys of us in an examination to be held shortly to separate the “sheep” from the “hilly goats” he would demon- strate that some of us were suffering from an acute attack of atavism. Having been assured of the great pleasure the opportunity of gazing upon our bright and smiling countenances had caused him, and having been requested again to gladden his heart on the morrow, we descended the stairs and came before Jimmy, who stood ready to elucidate all the principles of “Trig.” He started us on the accurately built road of mathematics and then bade us us revoir but not adieu. Xow came the first parting of our ways, a divergence that has grown greater from year to year, and will reach its culmination when in June we separate, each to go his own way. Some, went from Mathematics to Wood-Shop and Drawing, others to the deutsches Zimmer of Herr Prof. Wernicke. It would he a labor of love to trace the history of this great class day by day, describing all its adventures, its trials and hardships, and its ever steady progress, but space will allow us to mention a few only of the most important events that have stamped the class of ’07 into the memory of the college. In our Freshman year, we played the Sophomores in a foot ball game con- sisting of three “halves,” and the score stood at the end of the third 0 to 0. Later in the year, we defeated the Preps in basket hall. We rounded out the year by accompanying the battalion, of which we were then an integral part, to St. Louis in order to see the big fair as well as to learn how little food it really takes to sus- tain a person for ten days. At the beginning of the Sophomore year, we began to show signs of class spirit, although Ave still possessed many of the mob-like attributes common to most ex- Freshmen. Just to show the world that Sophs, however little it might be, were 79 vet somewhat better than those greenest of creatures called Freshmen, we saw fit to dictate to the class of '08 the style of headgear that they must wear—very small caps, symbolic of their brain development. It was necessary to use force to obtain obedience to this edict, as the Freshies had not yet learned to submit quietly to properly constituted authority. By the end of the year the class of ’07 had as strong an organization as any in school and was able to hold its own in all contests of any kind whatever, even against the dignified Seniors, with whom we were once brought into conflict,'the result of which was that' no tree was planted that year by Seniors. The .openiJig of the Junior year found bees buzzing in the bonnets of several of oui1 members. The political fever had struck our class. After a tew of our deihogogical brethren had boosted their own candidacy tor class president, the class met and elected Don Pedro, the general favorite, who had shown his running abil- it v in the 100 and .320 yard flashes. We then stood ready to meet all comers at ahv old game thev might propose. The '0(5 men suggested toot ball. We met them and presented, them with defeat in the form of 5 to 0. We next decided that- the indoor track meet banner would make a handsome decoration for “heaven when we should occupy those lofty quarters. Winning it was a thing of little difficulty. It onlv remained for us to give ?0(i the coup tie ( race by batting her pitcher all over the field in a game of base hall, which they rashly proposed to us, the result of which was 12 to I. Oui' most splendid success was on the night of May I 1, when we gave our noted Junior Prom. Our acts miiI deeds as Seniors are rather current events than history, too well known to all to require mention in this place. To speak a word about the future: Most of us expect to graduate in June, and when we go out into the world our only wish is that as great success may attend us there as that which we have enjoyed throughout our college days.

The Class = of ’08 T IS said that when the beautiful Pandora was being made ready to send into the worlds Jupiter called all the Gods together and instructed each to bestow upon the creature some characteristic. The one gave to her beauty, another grace, another wisdom, another knowledge, and so it con- tinued until the last presented her with that priceless jewell, curiosity, and thereupon Love sent her into the world well satisfied that this was 'the most precious gift he had ever made to mankind. And even so did President James Kennedy Patterson, on the eighth day of September,- A. D. 1904, call together his corps of immortal aides to whom he spake as follows: “Behold; there is this day entrusted into our kindly care a beautiful creature; a class of a hundred and thirty-four young men and young women, representatives of their respective counties and upon whom are based the fondest hopes of the fathers who begat them and the mothers who bore them. I commend them unto you. Take them and teach them by example as well as by precept the possibilities that lie before them. Teach them to discharge faithfully and conscientiously the duties that grow out of the relations that they sustain to their fellow man and to the institution of which they constitute a part; to perform with painstaking and with diligence the tasks that devolve upon them.” And quite diligently have those minor deities, our well beloved instructors, taught us by precept and by zeros at least, that the wisest plan is to take pains with the task at hand, and often have we resolved, on one day, that if the bell would just ring, we would be certain to discharge more faithfully and conscientiously the duty of preparing our lesson for the next day—a duty that grows out of the relation which we sustain to the institution of which we constitute a part. Thus our class is being moulded into a beautiful object to bless the world. Our story is to be a twentieth century Pandora tale with the unpleasant consequences eliminated according to modern improved methods. It was quite evident that the gift of curiosity had been given to our class before it entered college, but since our entrance, the wise have bcome wiser, the beautiful have become even more beautiful and as for knowledge, we have it in the greatest profusion. There are some members of our class who can give you detailed infor- mation upon any subject you may mention from archaeology to zymology. When we were Freshmen our class had besides its verdure many virtues. One of these virtues was the commendable trait of “stick-to-it-iveness.” This fact is obvious when it is remembered that as Freshmen we numbered one hundred and thirty-four while the junior class now numbers about a hundred and fifteen, thus indicating a smaller percentage of loss than any other class that has passed through the school in many years. The largest class that was ever graduated from this school was composd of about eighty members, but we are bidding fair to pass the hundred mark. It has been said that while a college education is the making of some students, it is the ruin of others. This may be the case of some members of other classes, but with our class it has been the invariable rule that its members have made rapid improvement. It has been intensely interesting to watch the development of some who, when they entered, might be compared to hopeless looking larvae, but are now emerging into beautiful imagos. It would be hard to state which part of our class is the source of the greatest pride to us. In science, engineering and classics, our students stand with the best. We cannot pass, however, without calling attention to the corps of girls who bear the proud title of juniors. In intelligence, beauty of character, and general at- tractiveness they stand supreme. We realize that our lot is a goodly one and trust to a kind Providence to guide us and to enable us to utilize the advantages that are ours; to seize every oppor- tunity that presents itself, and when they fail to present themselves, to make them and then turn them to worthy account.

Worthington A. G. Y AN KEY 92 Sophomore History. I-TE class of ’09, like other Freshies, came into college a happy but verclant crowd, wise in our own ignorance ; like other Freshies. we be- lieved in hard work alone as productive of success , and our minds were filled with good resolutions; like other Freshies, we feared the blus- tering bravado of “Sandy” and rejoiced in the glowing, good-nature of Musty, whose realms were always filled with some of our number; like the others, we never skipped chapel, went to all public receptions (V. M. C. A., etc.), and some of us even fell in for reveille each morning at the very heathenish hour of 6:20. And, like all the rest, we gradually awoke to a realization of the fact that “'a good bluff is rather to be chosen than much hard study ' we broke all of our good resolutions, we discovered that Sandy’s words were as so much chaff, and that behind Musty’s jovial ways reposed a tyrant in disguise, to be visited only at very occasional intervals, and, as a finishing touch to our education, we quit going to the receptions, skipped chapel now and then, and tried to live down the bitter disgrace of having ever attended revielle. These are a few points in which we are exactly similar to many classes which have gone before. In them we were like the “common herd” (to use our friend Maxson’s favorite expression). In them we did as many others have done, as many will do. But we firmly believe that there are some points in which we differ from those other classes, some things in which the banner of ’09 stands out above all the rest, it may be that these points of difference exist only in our own egotism, we trust not; at any rate, do us the justice to read on and decide for yourself. Our record in class fights and games is indeed enviable. As Freshmen, we entirely ruined the fighting spirit of ’08, when we tenderly laid them on the green sward, Xovember 1, 1905. This year, having reached the dignity of Sophomores, we have been uniformly victorious, although badly handicapped in every contest. In foot ball, our friends, the class of ’10, were badly defeated in one of the pret- tiest class games ever seen at State. And the class fight,—well, to say the least of it, the victory of 80 over 160 is certainly a glorious triumph ; and to Worthing- ton, whose bravery was largely responsible for our success, we give unlimited praise. In college athletics we are well represented. We possess the champion gym- nast of the college and winner of last year’s tournament, John S. Crosthwaite. The star member of the basket ball team, R. C. Barbee, is a Sophomore; and on the foot ball team we have Elgin and Speyer, of the first team, Captain Logan, Cook, Chisholm, Haynes, Hopgood, Cabrera, By waters, Eifort and others of the second team. In fact, we feel that we make no idle boast when we say that the class of 09, although small in quantity, is great in quality. In athletics, in scholarship, in every phase of college life, we are justly proud of our former deeds, and we sincerely hope that our future may be as rich in work, in play, in general good spirit, as has been our past. 94 Freshman Organization 1.

May her spirits ever remain ‘‘fresh and her every student either he a “man”—or be worthy of one. Who is there among ns who is not proud of being a freshman? and indeed there are several reasons why a man should be proud of the fact ; first, because he is not a prep; second, because he is not a Sophomore; third, because lie has three years more before lie is a Senior, and fourth, because the Freshman class is the chosen of the gods Venus, Goddess of Beauty, smiled on the girls. Jupiter, Mars, and Apollo sent their combined wishes for success to the boys; and Diana, Cod- dess of the Chase—of Basket-balls and 11.25V-endowed them with her character- istics till i(: would be impossible for them to have other than an illustrious career. They came in with a flourish, and I am thankful to say, they have been flourishing ever since. There are about one hundred and eighty enrolled, which is verv fortunate, as there is safety in numbers. I think this would apply also to trigonometry examinations if the numbers were of the right kind. Tn the early part of the year, after the machinery of daily routine had been well oiled and started, class election was held in which Mr. “Bodkin was elected class president because of his usefulness in handling “red tape. Miss Wallis was elected vice-president and Mr. Smith secretary and treasurer. Bed and black were chosen as class colors. There have been so far only three important events in the life of this infant, the Freshman class, and they have been, the flag-rush, the football game and the basket ball game. Of these the flag-rush was most important. The idea having- been suggested to them bv the upper classmen, the boys determined to create some similar excitement among themselves, and so challenged the Sophomores to a flag-rush the next day at twelve. After a long fight the Sophs, succeeded in getting- one of their menagerie up a near by telephone pole, despite frantic clutching at his pedal extremities, and having at last reached the flag pole, “Bunny” Worthing- ton, before the very eyes af the wailing Freshmen and exulting Sophomore's slowly rent the flag in twain. And all around could have been heard the exclamation, “To think of a rabbit climbing a poled5 And how appropriate seemed our colors, for red was the battle field, and black were the eyes of many a Sophomore. Then came the Freshman-Sophomore football game in which nothing happened, exciting, except the Sophs, again won, and “Franklin Hubbard had great difficulties with a refractory nose-guard. Then we got “beat55 also in the Prep basket-ball game, but although the Preps, won, the glory lay with the Freshman girls. It seems we have had many defeats, but we feel they have been given us so we may be able to sympathize with the Freshies when we are Sophompres. We have celebrities in the class, among them Mr. Bembold, for his loving disposition, and “Franklin Hubbard for his declamatory prowess. The Freshmen, if you notice, always look on the bright side of things, are always smiling and always on hand at any time and any place. They study well, recite fluently, behave orderly, and giggle frequently. Kentucky State College Athletic Association L. E. Hillenmeyer, T) W. 0. Alden. '08 A. M. Kirby, }07 II. E.

Cham, G. Sumner. 1906 SCHEDULE Football A T the beginning of the fall term of the present collegiate year, the foot ball fever spread over our school, and many were its victims. With a goodly number of old men.back in line, A. L. Donan in the managerial chair, and J. White Guyn, who in seasons past had re- peatedly assisted in carrying the Blue and White to victory, acting as our coach, prospects were indeed gratifying. Athletics were carried on in a manner most pleasing to our friends and enemies alike, as every member of the team was a full-fledged, active student. Too much credit cannot be given to J. White Guyn, and to Captain Paullin and Line-Captain Brewer, for the line show- ing made by our team. After the difficulty of mastering the new rules was overcome, practice pro- gressed nicely and it soon became evident that a good team was a surety. The first game played was with Vanderbilt University, and.while the..result was not victory, it was very gratifying to know that our team could hold one of the strongest teams in the South and West, as evidenced by their subsequent showing against Michigan and the Carlisle Indians, to shell a comparatively' small score. These games with the larger universities should he encouraged as more really good expe- rience can be obtained in one of these games than in several games with less skilled teams. Following our initial game were many interesting and exciting games, as can he seen from the schedule; and, on the whole, the season was a success; financially, as well as otherwise. This was Kentucky State’s first experience with the graduate system of coach- ing, and results were satisfactory enough to warrant its continuance. Our Coach Previous to the year 1906. State had secured foot ball coaches from the North, South, East, and West. These men, on the whole, have given sat- isfaction, their compensation, however, has kept pace with their knowledge of the game. When the authorities began the task of selecting a man to train the squad of 06, they felt that among the alumni we had warriors just as capable as those sent forth from the great gridirons of the North and East. Time has proven their judgment to have been correct. Among these there were many who could have rendered excellent service; but in one especially, J. White Guyn, the qualifications to lead the team for his Alma Mater stood out in bold array. “White” entered State in 1901 and for three years he was the idol of the foot ball population of Lexington. Weighing less than 150 pounds his work behind the line was something marvelous. A fast, clean, foot ball player, with an lerring judgment, which more than once turned defeat into victory, in 1904 he as unanimously elected captain. The victories of this matchless team shall and forever as a monument to our athletic achievements. The material at White’s disposal was, for the most part, green and scarce, owever, he was never heard to utter a word of despair: but with that nuver- v-die” spirit which had characterized him as a player, he began the arduous sk of building up a team, three weeks after the opening of college. The battles ' the team did not all result in victories ; however, its record was most creditable, he one thing that we are most proud of is that it was a State College team, ,ached by a State College man, and to J. White Guyn too much credit tor its iccess cannot be attributed. j. WHITE GUYN, Foot Ball Coach. Our Players PAULLIN—Captain Buck” Paul]in, right half, was a man of two years’experionce which served him in good stead. He was a hard line.-plunger, quick to take an opening, always running low and fast. He was active and alert, being better adapted to go through an interference for a tackle than to smash it for the end. He was never taken off his guard, never found at a disadvantage, always having the interest of his team at heart. His punting was also good ; but this can be accounted for, as “Buck” was always regis- tering a kick. He is 21 years old, is 5.8 feet in height, and weighs 152 pounds. 1 REWEB—•Line Captain “Beef” Brewer, right tackle, , was again the same old star of former years. He was the heaviest man on the team, which had great weight with the players. A good ground gainer, able to run from his position and anything else with great accuracy and speed, made him a gridiron warrior to be feared and watched. He was strong on the defense, being able to smash up an interference or a player who came in his path. Things were always stirring when this “Brewer” of trouble was started. “Beef” jawed at will and the umpire. He is 21 years old, weighs 183 pounds, and stands 6.1 feet high. ADAIR—“Georgie” was a veteran center, and proved himself to be one of those heroes whose picture should adorn the hall of foot ball fame. He was accurate and easy with his pass, and was at all times the “center” of attraction. Being exceptionally strong on the defense, “Georgie” was the main cause of much fumbling on the part of the opposing quarter back. “Georgie” was tipped for the All-Southern center, but as the tip was small, he refused to even become a contestant. He is captain of the ’0« team, and should produce a wonder. He is 21 years old, weighs 170 pounds, and is 5.9 feet in height. HEHDRICKSON —“Henny,” at left guard, was another find, and should prove one of the stars next year. Being placed in this position, it would seem as if he was invariably “left,” but such was not the case. Quick, for a heavy man. he was a good ground gaiiner. being'covered with dirt after every scrimmage, and he sejdom failed to make his distance. He was also strong on defense and profanity, and broke through many times for a good tackle. He weighs 165 pounds, is 19 years old, and stands 5.8 feet high. 108 COI EM AX-—“Antimony,” left tackle, prove ! to be a tower of strength on the left- side of the line; a steady ground gamer, and a wonder when it came to breaking through the line and throw- ing the runner for a loss or for fun. Coleman belied his name, as°lie was every inch and both feet a “warm-man,” making events hot for an opponent. The backs were able to gain even time through the holes that “Sammy” made, if il were not for the tact that he himself was in a hole most of the time. He is 5.9 feet in height, weighs 164 pounds, and is 25. years old. BAER_____“Bone,” left end, was the lightest man on the team, but able to carry bis own along with the heaviest. Being Baer, he was truly game, and only stuck to naked facts. He was very fast, both on and off the gridiron, and a sure tackier, taking many a. fall out of an opponent. Getting down on punts and players was his long suit, and he invariably dropped the man in his -tracks. Baer had a knack of scrapping with big men, simply because-.he was aware of the fact that cruelty to children was prohibited: He stood 5.6 feet high, is 21 years old, and weighs 128 pounds. ELGIN—Jeff, right' end, was always at the start and end too, |md an attentive eve, and was alive to mistakes or fumbles and the grand stand. He seldom failed to gain the advantage for his side, when the referee's back was turned. Jeff, in bis prep school days, starred at M. M. I., and so stood out amongst State’s constellation. He was able to do some “tall” playing, but bad a long wavs to fall. He weighs 152 pounds, is only 19 years old, is 6.8 fool in height, and the onlv thing to his discredit is that he is a Sophomore. 109 CRAM—-'A. B. C.” as sub-back was always ready to jump in the game when given a chance, and his playing was of a nature that would have made him a regular had it been possible to have four backs. Cram was always sure on a tackle and always hit hard both in tackling and in scraps. A. B. is 22 years old, 5.9 feet in height and weighs 156 pounds. SUMNER—“Gordie” was third choice for end and was able to play either end of the line with speed and accuracy. He was sure and steady on defense, and was exceptionally strong and fast in running from his position. He is 6 feet in height, is .21 years old, and weighs 172 pounds. McK INNEY—“Minnie,” full back, way-back arid hump-back, was a tackle on the ’05 team. Strong at bucking the line, he pos- sessed an unlimited supply of nerve and grit acquired in his youth, and assisted well on the defense and in the class-room. He often carried a man .by mere strength through the line for good gains, and worked hard, at all times, except when caught loafing. Game to the core, he was in every play and all mischief and his ‘•backing- up” behind the line was always a feature. “Mac is 22 years old. weighs 155 pounds, arid is 5.9 feet in height. WILSON—“Stink,” left half, was ever strongly in the game and left no odor of rottenness in his playing. He was quick as lightning, always on the alert and some players head, a marvel at breaking up interference and fights and then nailing his man. He was a good plunger on the gridiron and the track, always being in the race. Maury had every qualification that goes to make up a good player and used them to advantage and to further his in- terests. He is 20 years old, tips the beam at 150 pounds, and stands 5.9 feet high. STONE—“Nervy, quarter back, could be depended on at all times to do his share of the work, if no one else was to be found who would do it. He ran the team well, and the manager, too. He was quick to find weak spots in the opposing team, and always used his head and feet in running our eleven. His handling of punts was poor at times, but then it was because of the fact that he could not hold them. “Nervy” was also handy in blowing up the pigskin, as his supply of. air never gave out. He is 20 years old, is 5.8 feet in height, and weighs 1-14 pounds. 110 Manager. . . Captain. F. C. Pauli,in..... L. K. Hili.enmeyek Stone, Catcher and Rig® Field. Eujin. Catcher. Reed.

Not once on the home field did they experience the bitter sting of defeat, and only twice during the entire season was their lofty banner destined to fall: and this when, worn out by long journeys, the team was unable to do itself justice. From the time when the umpire first sang out “Play ball,” until the last “out” was called at the close of the season, there was a spirit of “never say die” which pulled the team out of many a hole. That the entire team played steady, consistent hall it shown by the small scores made by their opponents, Kentucky State scoring, on an average, two points to her opponents one. One of the pleasant features of the season was. the trip through West Vir- ginia, irginia, and North Carolina, on which State won four games out of seven, one of the remaining three resulting in a tie. Manager Read is to be complimented on the excellent schedule he arranged and on his business-like way of running his -end Of the team. Hilly Swearingen was at home in the box, cool, heady, and sure of the support of the team behind him; Neville Earl Stone did the receiving, and lined out home-runs for pastime; “Stan” Baer was unequaled at playing first; Hillenmeyer ate- ’em up on second; ('apt. “Pete” Rule was sure on third and with the stick when hits were needed; “Sol Darling held down short in his usual easy style, alternating with Billy Alden. In the fields, Donan, McDowell, and Montgomery covered all the ground and were good with the stick. This season promised, at the start, better results than any previous year, with seven old men back and more new material than ever before. Manager Paullin worked hard on arranging his schedule and in getting the team started. The team ad not lost an inter-collegiate game up to the time the. “Kentuckian” was closed for the press, and everything pointed to a clean record of victories during the entire season. Stone was back at catcher, alternating with the field; Swearingen again in the box; “Stan” Baer on first: Hillenmeyer on second : Rule on third; Billy Alden at short; and Donan in left field; all these old men playing better ball than ever before. Jeff Elgin shows up well behind the bat and will do a good part of the catching; Goldnam'er is good on first and in the field ; “Red” Woodward easily made center field ; while Reed and Caudill vie with Billy Swearingen for pitching honors. With these additions to an already good team, the State championship is al- ready within our grasp, and every team we go against had best look to her honors, lest they be soiled by being trampled under the feet of our victorious State Col- lege team.

Begin- ning the season this time with all of the last year’s team back, pros- pects looked good from the start, and when the excellent new material that was on hand began to try out, the old men knew they had to work for their places, hence the good practice that started the development of the team early in the year. The games this year were attended by fairly good crowds, the student body, contributing liberally. A fairly good schedule was played, but owing to the lateness of the election of the management the schedule was not what it might have been. A goodly num- ber of the games played were played in the home gymnasium, and lovers of basket ball were given a splendid opportunity for seeing much good work displayed. A trip was arranged, but the members of the team who indulged in the pleasures of a trip last season were wise to its effects and results and chose to remain at home. One thing the present basket ball team can boast of is the financial success of the season. It was the first time in the history of basket bail at State College that the team has paid its expenses. Like our past foot ball season, with economical management the basket ball team finished the season with a balance in the treas- ury sufficient to purchase the team sweaters, which was done. Great interest was manifested in the series played with Georgetown, the cham- pions for several years past. State won the first game and Georgetown the second. With the deciding game to be played in State’s gymnasium, and a great deal of conviction that State would win the third game, Georgetown backed out in the last moment and refused to finish the season, for reasons which were never ex- pressed. Under these conditions, State College can justly claim the championship. Girls’ Basket Ball Team Thomson Bryant ........................Coach. Anne Crenshaw .........................Captain.

Yet .State College feels able to hold her own against other colleges when the opportunity arrives. It was hoped that games would be played with Caldwell College at Danville, but as these were called off, only two regular games were played during the short season : one a match game to decide the first team, the other between the Juniors and .Seniors. .As the first team of ’07 hands oyer its record to its successors, it feels that though its work has been yet if leaves more than competent substitutes, and hopes that the glory of '08 will be wide-spread. For, Tis better to have played and lost. Than never to have played at all. 1907 TRACK TEAM Track Team z?5 P. F. Shannon .....................Manager. Dox P. Bhanson.....................Captain.

During the few years that it had the proper attention and support, t was evident that much excellent material for this sport was avail- able; but, unfortunately, the men who have shown talent along this line have not been.' supplied with the proper facilities for trainin,g and have been left to their own devices in the line of coaching. These unfavorable conditions, together with the lack of financial support by the Athlqtic Committee and the student body, has resulted in the loss to the college of much honor along the line of track and field athletics. In the collegiate year of 1905-00, our relay team easily won first honors in the inter-collegiate relay at the Dupont Manual Training School Meet at Louisville, Ivy. The College records for the “Century”, pole-vault, hammer-throw, and high- jump Were broken by D. P. Branson, (’apt. H. J. Schulz, S. B. Coleman and P. T. Atkins respectively. “Don Pedro” has the enviable record of “10 flat” made at Danville April 25; “Sammy'' Coleman heaved the unwieldy hammer 102 feet; Capt. Schulz cleared the bar at 10 ft. 3 ins. ; and “Tommy” Atkins. cleared 5 ft 3 ins. The relay team which so easily walked away with the honors was composed of Paul lin, Bean, Karsner and Turner. It is sincerely hoped by all who take an interest in track sports that the devel- opment of good men will be properly attended to in the future, and that Kentucky will produce track men whose records will compare favorably with those of the thoroughbred horses which have made their native state so famous in all countries of the eivilized world. THE GIANT SWING POST SHELBY TOWERY CROSTHWAITE SHORT, Manager. PROF. MUSTAINE, Director. PRICE. RODES, Captain. The work of the 1907 Gym Team was marked by two events: A tournament, held on March l(i, to decide on the winner of a medal to be given to the best gymnast, and also to pick the two men to whom “K’s” should be awarded for this year. The medal was won by Short; the “K's” by Rodes and Price. A dual meet with C. U., held March 23, in which K. S. C. won the champion- ship by the overwhelming score of 163 to 138. 126 A mu in I-off. a tip-up, a turn-in-th e-air. And other such antics too many to name, Are sonic of the tricks which we fear not to dare To add to the splendid report of our fame. A back-flip, a front-flip, a running-high-dive. A swing of the giant, a stand on the hand. And all such attempts which our skill can contrivi And other keen stunts which we have at command. A kip-np. a kick-off, a wild fly-a-wny, A big kip. a split-up, and several more Which add to athletics the pleasure of play. Arc found in the lists which we have in our str-r The physical man in the pink of perfection Is trim in the training of muscular skill. And stands as a type of the choicest selection, Fulfilling: a law horn of heavenly will. Then happy are we to partake of the pleasure Arising to those who will labor to gain Such goal of achievement in life's golden measure That's wortliv of effort, though hard to attain. We long will remember one man of the Gym. Whose name in our meniTies will ever remain: We hold in our hearts a kind feeling for him— Our friend and instructor, Professor Mustaine. We’re proud of our college and proud of our team ; We’re proud of the fact that we live in a land Whose li fe may be pleasure, whose golden-hued gleam Weaves visions of rapture on every hand. —B. T.

This team, which represents not only the Patterson and Union Literary So- cieties, but also the Senior, Junior ,and Sophomore classes, brought joy to our hearts on April 11), by strolling over to Morrison Chapel and showing those Pseudo- Demostheneses from K.'U. how little they knew about the subject: “Resolved, That tin' United States would be justified in establishing her permanent rule in Cuba.” K. U. defended the affirmative side of the question. Her friends pitied the hope- less plight of the negative, for what would be left.of them when Stansifer, Dutt, and Ilutehcraft got through with them? The first was to “kill them out,” the second to “skin them,” the third to “eat them blood raw.” But a wonderful coin- cidence it was that Stansifer missed his blow, Dutt had lost his butcher knife, and Hutchcraft’s teeth were out of fix; so our men lived to tell the tale. This is the tale that was told: At the end of StansifePs speech, it seemed that K. U. had a little the best of the argument; but Towery quickly changed the outlook. Dutt then tried to remedy the black eye that had just been given to K. IT. but was not as successful in this medical undertaking as Uncle Sam, according to his statement, had been in stamping out the yellow fever in Cuba. When Dutt had finished, Moore flew into the legal phases of the subject, and made it clear that the law was on our side. Hutchcraft closed the argument for the affirmative, telling, among other things, how excitable Congress and the President were. McPheron soon established the fact that there was “no hope for K. U.” and yielded the floor to Moore, who made the rebuttal speech for State, the feature of the evening. This speech was a wonder. In. the short minutes Moore picked the affirma- tive argument to pieces and made the task-that had been imposed upon the judges an easy one indeed. Stansifer arose and made a noble effort to recover the lost ground, but the battle was already won and his efforts, though heroic, were without avail, and the judges by a vote of four to one declared that the negative had won. v.

A. of the State College should commend itself to the favor and approval of every student in the college and should have his support. It is extremely difficult for an institution to exist and prosper when each year new and inexperienced hands direct its man- agement. This is true of any enterprise, especially so of an organiza- tion founded upon such an unselfish basis as is the Y. M. C. A. We feel that those who have had charge of the work during this scholastic year have indeed possessed the “proper spirit.5’ The opening of the session found the Y. M. C. A. without a president, secretary or other officer, and with its treasury empty. The outlook was discouraging indeed, more so than at the opening of any session since the Y. M. C. A. was established here. A few hoys who were especially interested got their heads together to make plans. They realized that anything, to be attractive to the students in general, must be something active, and indeed did they make the Y. M. C. A. both active and attractive. To raise funds they made a canvass of the student body and faculty soliciting aid. The students and professors at once realized that these boys had their hearts in the work, that they meant business, and so gave them not only financial but also moral support. The result is that the Y. M. 0. A. room, a large, light and well situated hall, has been furnished and equipped in the best of style. The walls have been frescoed and the floor stained and polished. The furniture is of a heavy, massive style and consists of numerous large, easv chairs, reading tables, game tables, and writing desks, book-cases and paper files in which are kept all the best magazines and periodicals. The telephones have been installed, and in general no effort has been spared to make the room a real “center of college life. The meetings are held every Wednesday evening at seven o’clock, everyone being welcomed. When we contemplate the advances made by the Y. M. C. A. during this ses- sion and remember the discouraging outlook at its beginning, we are well persuaderi that the future holds rich returns for work given to this worthy department of our college. 145 1 Tau Beta Cakes Founded at Kentucky State College 1906 COLORS: Muckle Dun Brown and Pea Green Preamble—To mark in a fitting-manner those who have conferred honor upon themselves by a grade of scholarship ranging between 11.$5 and 11.3.

Think what a dismal failure it will be if such a move is not inaugurated. Many of the girls who recite with you daily do not know vour names; such a state of affairs should not exist. You boys should see that no girl is neglected. A Comedy of Errors WRITTEN BY Matters were in a sad tangle. They had quarreled. She thought it his duty to have a menacing portion of his anatomy removed, and he was very well satisfied with it the way it was. They were engaged and just three weeks before the day set for the wedding Agnes Rowland had suddenly informed Archie Parker that unless he underwent an operation for appendicitis their wedding trip would be an impossibility; for she declared that since he had already had two quite severe attacks of appendicitis, and was just recovering from a third, she would never risk leaving the United States with him if the present state of affairs continued. And he—well, he had his heart set on an extended wedding journey, and he likewise had his heart set against an operation, and also Agnes’s importunities concerning the same; so they quarreled. Archie hastened from the Rowland home with anger in his heart in the place where love had Iris abode several hours previous. When he called to his waiting chaffeur that he was ready to start for town he knew from his simple reply that he was on one of his habitual sprees; but what did he care for that; he had quarreled with Agnes and with this thought upper- most in his mind all others faded to the background of the present tragedy. It was a miserably dark and rainy night. They swept strongly onward for several miles; then suddenly a series of wild complaining cries from the leviathan clove the night air, and were borne in upon Parker’s benumbed senses as a soul- sickening calamity. .Several moments later the auto subsided into an inert, pulse- less mass of cooling metal in a ditch several feet below the roadside. Several hours'later, Parker began to gain consciousness and beheld the wreck of his auto, and discovered that the chaffeur was nowhere in sight. His mental machinery must have received a jar, for it was a long time before he could ascer- 207 tain his whereabouts, and then he remembered that there was a hotel in the 'vicin- ity, so lie plunged into the murk of the. night with a new determination in mind. After a tramp of several miles he beheld what, from their number and extent, could bo nothing but the lights of the hotel. He finally reached his destination and was a pitiable spectacle. It would have been a difficult task to recognize the well-bred, aristocratic Archie Parker in the rain-bedraggled human who addressed the night- watchman: “I have met with an accident; my auto—•” “There, there,” interrupted the night-watchman: “come right upstairs; your bed’s turned back and waiting for you.” What did this mean? But Parker had not, fully gained consciousness, and besides, he was weary mentally and physically, so he received the attentions of the servant without question. Parker had scarcely dropped into a doze when the watch- man knock'd on Dr. Cutler’s door down stairs. “What is it?” came in sleepy tones. “C24 slipped out of the house—” “What!” interrupted a sharp voice from within. “Don’t get unaisy, Doctor, show it’s all right: now: as soon as I missed him 1 went to look for him,’ and there he was in the office by the fire, liavign just slipped out for a prowl in the rain and mud.” Parker was awakened by a voice at his elbow: “Yes, Doctor instructed us to administer the anesthetic in here.” In great amazement he beheld a trained nurse standing at the foot of his bed and several men in the room, one of whom seemed to be adjusting a queer looking apparatus of rubber and metal. “What”—“where”—began he, but just then something soft and suffocating was crammed down over his mouth and nose. For an instant he struggled desper- ately, striving to cry out: then his senses whirled in space and he sank into oblivion. Dr. Cutler strolled down the path lending from the Pine Ridge retreat for the insane, the satisfaction of a difficult operation successfully performed lighted his countenance. Suddenly the stillness was broken by a series of discordant cries which evidently proceeded from the lusty throat of a human. Chng-a-chng, toot- toot—the next instant a weird figure swathed in a mass of muddy bedding rushed down the road. Too paralyzed to move, Dr. Cutler stood open-mouthed and staring in the road. lie of the flowing robes never faltered in bis mad career, but bore down upon the surgeon, who subsided, an inert mass, on roadside. Archie Parker reclined luxuriously against his pillows and surveyed the sur- geon with the indulgent look of a conqueror. In his hand he held a bottle tightly corked which contained a once menacing portion of his anatomy. At times his eyes would fall upon it with a satisfaction too deep for words. “Well,- doctor,” observed he, “of course it was an inexcusable blunder on your part, but—” “But,” pursued the surgeon, “have you any proposition?” “Yes,” replied Archie, “1 have. If you will never let the circumstances of this operation he known, especially to Miss Rowland and her family, and pretend that I sought the operation, and accept niv cheque for $500, we’ll call it square.” “With pleasure,” said Cutler, with a great sense of relief visible in the tone of his voice. “How,” said Archie, “will you kindly telephone the glad news to Miss Row- land ?” “To be sure,” replied the .young doctor. Early the next forenoon there was a rustle in the hall, which sound, to Parker’s expectant ears, was like the rustle of angels’ wings. The next instant Agnes was in the room. “0, you dear, brave boy! To think of you coming here all alone without say- ing a word to anyone.” “My dear little girl, L am entitled to no praise whatever; I simply couldn’t help myself. Sometimes our destiny is in higher hands than our own. I am glad, though,” he added, “that it wasn’t an amputation.” “You great big-hearted boy. to think of you coming to this horrid place—” “Excuse me, but you do it an injustice. I was never in more godly company in my life, for there is an angel in the room at the present moment.” The A B C’s as We Learned Them A is for Anderson—“Little Paul ’ Who’s the “broadest man” at Mechanical Hall. B is for Boggess with his “taking” ways; With heroic feats he has filled his days. (1 is for Co-eds, whom “Sandy” calls nice; For surely to him all are pearls of great price. L is for Davis, whom the students adore; When asked to explain, he always gets sore. E is for Evie, who also ran; She quit our company for the Xormalite clan. P is for Florence, for neatness famous; One look at her room is sufficient to shame us. G is for George, the janitor prudent; Around Thanksgiving he’s a (k)night to each student. H is for Hilly, and Hamilton, too; These two men put the Annual through. I Is for Imogen, unclassified; ’Twill not be so when she’s President’s bride. J is for Jones with his Latin and Greek ; He teaches, sometimes, ninety hours a week. K is the Kentuckian, the pride of the staff; We’ll stand by it nobly, whoever may laugh. L is for Lucy, our much esteemed aunt;” On the virtues of Jack she hu es to descant. M is for Masson, who acts like a bear; His chief diversion is to sling hot air. N is for Nobody, the best of us all; He knows how to pass when the rest of us fall. 0 is for Ott, who’s a very “broad man,” Built on “Little Paul’s” Andersonian plan. P is for Parrish, an example to “foller;” Let’s take a collection and buy him a collar. Q is for Queer, what we all strive to be; ’Tis the longed-for goal at K. S. C. E is for Roger, across from the Hall; The girls congregate to see him play ball. S is for Stracham, the official butt-in ; To the tribe of goats he’s very close kin. T is for Towery, the lofty poet; If he didn’t tell it, no one would know it. U is for Hs, the class of ’07; When no longer on earth, just look in “heaven.” V is for Virtue, not easily found; In the class of ’07 ’tis known to abound. W is for Worthington, the Sophomore star, Whose beauty and grace are far above par. X is the man, whose name is unknown, Bombarded the Xormals with a bucket of stone. Y is for Yafier, often needs a shave; What an idea! Just trade with Dave. Z is for Zero, our ultimate fate; It may send us back to the class of ’08. 209 n I An Episode It was on a midnight bleak, Full of booze they were and weak As they went their room to seek. Then they heard a big cop shout, “Yon three guys had best watch out. Or I’ll have yon under lock Before three tides of the old town clock.” “Sir,” said one, “we’re each a lad Who has slightly got in bad. We are in the quest of knowledge 0ot at far-famed old State College.” “It matters not a jot,” said he, “Where vonr residence may be. The words yon spoke when yon stepped out Would put a sailor-man to rout. And ’tis my care in this community To let not such go with impunity. So now, young man, march straight out Lime. Before Judge Riley sets your time.” They took the cue and onward pressed— Wrath was heaving in one’s breast. His ma had taught him, “When you can Endure an insult from no man.” His pent-up anger he gave vent As toward the college gate they went. One not armed with passion’s arrow : “The way’s not long, but much too narrow.” At last they reached their place of rest, In condition far from best, And doomed to wake with aching heads, They pressed erelong their downy beds.

His appetite equals the Ennis, Which, indeed, it were hard to exccll, And I think it’s, if anything, larger, And more like a bottomless well. His claws are a strange combination, Strong as steel and as fuzzy as feather; They can grip into human flesh sadly, Whether cloudy or fair be the weather. He has thousands of eyes in his forehead, Tie can see for a mile, less or more; Upon man he inflicts awful tortures Of yarious types, by the score. He can make himself large and obnoxious, Or so small he can scarcely be found; He can make any unearthly noise, From a veil to the ghost of a sound. He can walk up or downwards or backwards, lie can fly, he can dance, he can run; He defies all of mankind’s contrivings, From a fly-paper down to a gun. He’s a friend of the old Irish Microbe;” “German Germs” are his greatest of friends; With “Parisian Parasites” gallant The most of his spare time he spends. He fransports them to mortals with pleasure By sticking them into his toes; And gives them directions explicit To inflict them with divers sad woes. Do you know that these servants employed Can kill us poor mortals at ease? For they are the spirits of evil And their unassumed name is—Disease. They are Typhoid, Pneumonia, and Measles, Yellow Fever and dreaded Small Pox. In short, all those much dreaded evils That escaped out of Pandora’s box. Do you know this great monster so evil Who can cause every person to die? It. is that carnivorous monster The awful, man-killing, JIousc-Fly. 212 E. E. G The Amazon We have heard of noble women, In years long, long ago. Who with sword and shining armor Used to fight the strongest foe. And still there are charming maidens, Without javelin or lance, Who attack the noble heroes And win them with a glance. Our heroine’s a woman, And she fights a maudlin throng; But all who see her prophesy That the strife will not be long. Her weapon is a flapper That she uses well. 0 ! My !

Seen on Prof. Mackenzie’s Blackboard: THE BENEFACTOR Mr. Mifflin wrote this sonnet in honor of the powerful medicine anesthesia. The'medicine is used mostly by Scrgeons to put people to sleep with so that when they operate on him the pain is not so intense as it would have been if they were awake. Mr. Mifflin also says that the use of this medicine is an act of charity, for anything that saves anyone from pain is charity. —A Freshman. Sandy: Parrish IT HAPPENED IN ETHICS fr.

Kirby had been in the Senior Mechanical drawing room to see Pat Farrell on some very important business. As he was leaving the room laughing at a witty remark Pete Rule had just belched forth, he encountered Little Paul, and the following dialogue took place: Kirb.—“Beg your pardon, Professor; the reason for my being in here was that I wanted to see one of your men.” LittlcP.—“That’s all right—but, Mr. Kirby, what course of study do you pursue ?” Kirb.—“I pursue the classical course of study.” Little P.—“Don’t you have anything to do at all ?” Kirb.—“No, sir, not a thing—not a thing in this world!” Little P.—'“Well, we dislike very much for our classes to be disturbed over here.” Kirb.—“I’m sorry, but it was on account of some very important business that I wanted to see Mr. Parrel.” Little P.—“Couldn’t have been very important.” Kirb.—“Why?” Little P.—“Because you came out of there roaring like a jass ack.” Kirb.—“Yes, sir. But the reason for iky roaring was a witty remark that was made. But the most remarkable thing about the remark was that it was remarked by a Mechanical Engineer.” Little P.—“Well, we don’t care to have loafers over here at all; this is a place for work and we have no time for those that have nothing to do.” Kirb.—“I am very sorry, professor, that I interrupted you, because I know there is no one around these diggings that does anything but Mechanical Engineers; at least, that is the idea entertained by a prof, or two I know who see no other students but Mechanical Engineers, and I know that it must be very irritating to these professors for this mechanical atmosphere to be permeated by a student from any other course. Little P.—“That’s all right, Mr. Kirby, you are a very bright fellow all right, but please don’t disturb us again.” Kirb.—“I certainly shall never do it again. Good-bye, sir.” Little P.—“Good-bye.” Three days later— A Senior—“Kirb, ask Little Paul if we can have his recitation room to hold a class meeting in.” Kirb.—“Hot on your tintype.” 217 SAMPLES OF LEXINGTON WEATHER Saturday was certainly a record-breaker in the weather line. Local Fore- caster 0. Harold Noyes reports that one of his thermometers tied itself in a true lover’s knot trying to keep track of the variations in temperature, and that his aneroid -barometer acted like an alarm clock with the jim-jams in its efforts to change every time the weather did. Sunshine and shadow, snow and sleet, all had their brief season, until the day resembled a veritable layer cake. First the day dawned bright and fair. Then it + snowed. Then old Father Winter pulled a frown down over his hoary forehead and cut the strings of.the bag in which Old Boreas was caged; and one’s mind was in- stantly occupied with a vague wonder as to the disposition of last summer’s earnings. Bye-and-bye the sun came out again, people began to emerge from beneath the collars of :their overcoats, and sonic even ventured forth without their ear- muffs and diving suits.' Pretty soon Mother Goose got. busy and began to pick her chickens again, and the air was soon tilled with the swirl of their downy feathers. The last snow started in as though it meant business, and by 6 o’clock there was at least two inches of snow oh the ground. The street car people got out their .snow plow and ran it around until thy novelty and the revolving brooms were equally worn off. About 5 o’clock old Dame Nature wearied of the snow flake business and began to administer, a dose of cute little homeopathic ice pills, but the supply was soon exhausted and we got rain instead. Of course this rain was wet and cold, and it froze to whatever it struck. Sidewalks began to put on a thin, transparent coat- ing of smooth, glossy ice.that lay quietly in wait for the careless and unwary pedes- trians. A man would come hurrying along, his mind intent on home and supper, or a hot “hummer” at some wayside bar, when he would strike a slick place and the sidewalk would hand him a warm one on his dome of thought. Fred White, a well known young printer, narrowly escaped derailing at least one, if not two, cars on the-South Broadway hill, besides mussing up the beautiful snow.

The Pigeon With Apologies to the Raven t Very well do they remember, on that night, ’twas in December, Plow their hunger for some chicken had grown worse than e'er before; They were nodding, nearly napping, when the taste for fowl came tapping, As of some one rashly rapping—rapping at their stomach’s door. ;Twas some chicken, cluck or turkey they wished worse than e’er before. Then they thought of nothing more. Out into the darkness peering, these four started, nothing fearing, After chicken, which they’d tasted not for many months before; For their boarding houses, pleasant to such ones as eat no pheasant, Had to them become disgusting, with no chicken held in store ; For I tell you, they this chicken wanted worse than e’er before. Merely this and nothing more. To a small house they came moping—they had found it in their groping— And all wondered if within it chickens might be held in store. Then John Henry soon was prying, Kirb was second, keenly trying To find one roosting low enough and also near the door. For one found thus lowly roosting would be lost forevermore; This the four swore:—“Evermore.” Pup and Petey were out peeping, to make sure the Judge was sleeping, When from the house the first two came with arms a-running o’er; For within the house the rapping, and the beating, and the flapping, Sounded just the same to Pup as does the distant thunder’s roar, For boys, birds and everything had flown from out that little door; All came forth in one uproar. As they sat intently eating, not a word was one repeating, For -the fowl was flying down their throats as hash had done before. All at once they shrieked, up-lea ping, for they saw the Judge was creeping From his home to find what boys had opened wide his pigeons’ door ; And they ran back to the dorm as they had never ran before. Pigeons? Gone forevermore. 220 Bum Jokes Brewer—“Do you see yonder shaft towering skyward ?” Blain (fresh from the hills)—“Yes, sir.

Each instrument is brought to place, The leader’s wand is lightly poised— It moves, And Traumerei softly stirs the strings, But swifter than the thoughts it brings, Sweet dreams do waft us to Celestial heights; Now faint, now clear, it falls or swells As on each fantasy it dwells, And then it fades completely; But starting up as wide awake, The soul flies, the body shakes, A thousand demons overtake With frightful yell, And cast it down; Nor why the hallucination— Until with meditative breath It turns again from dreams of death To happier thoughts, And rapture wakes the inner While helplessly there steals a tear From the closed eyes. Then sinks into a deeper sleep, Where sweet unconsciousness doth keep Its silent watch; And naught is left but breathing. There is a Flower There is a flower—the wild brier rose. Upon the winds its fragrance blows; So gently doth it kiss’ the breeze And nod before the humble bees. In rural pastures hath it grown, Never a daintier flower hath blown; In blushing beauty doth it stand— Sweet eglantine throughout the land. All’s Well That Ends Well With Most Profuse Apologies to the Shade of Shakespeare Have you ever been on a slow train in Arkansas? If. you never have, take the advice of one who knows and don’t try it “just for the experience,” especially if you are in a hurry. And on this occasion 1 was in a hurry—what girl on the way home for the Christmas holidays is not? 1 was reflecting in no pleasant mood upon the defective railroad system when 1 was aroused by a voice: “Ticket, please. I started and looked up to find a cross-looking conductor standing over me. “Ticket!” he repeated. As I handed it to him he asked curtly: “Where to?” “St. Louis.” “St. Louis? Wrong train. This goes to Memphis,” was the brief reply. “What shall I do?” I cried in tones piteous enough to have melted any heart but that of a railroad official. However, it didn’t affect him, for he replied just as brusquely: “Do? Get off at Ball Knob and wait for the right train. Number eight passes at ten o’clock, but don’t stop. You’ll have to wait till morning—” and he handed me my ticket with an air of fianlity. “But I can’t wait till morning,” I pleaded; “1 II miss connection in St. Louis. Wouldn’t they stop if I asked them to?” He gave me a pitying glance, and passed on, too disgusted for words. It was nearly dark then, and I had no idea how long it would be before we reached Ball Knob; and of course I didn’t dare to ask the conductor. However, my uncertainty was soon relieved by the porter, who came in for my suit-case, and said the next stop was my station. As I stepped off the train 1 gave a groan of despair, for I had never seen a more desolate looking place. There was no one around—no sign of life anywhere— and in the station I found only the ticket agent. “There’s no train till three o’clock,” he told me, when I questioned him. “But hold on,” he added, as a toot reached our ears, “that sounds like a train nowand he ran to the door with me close behind, resolved that I would board it, no matter where it went, rather than spend the night in such a place. We saw a train coming at full speed. “Powerful strange,” muttered the agent. “There ain’t no train due to pass here now.” But it came on, nevertheless, and to my great jov I saw that it was slacking up. I grabbed up my suit-case and ran to the platform. The cars were still mov- ing slightly when a young man jumped off and came towards me. “Ah, there you are!” he exclaimed, smiling and taking off his hat. “1 m sorry we’re late, but really it couldn’t be helped. Your father left word, but I didn’t get the message, and—” he stopped for want of breath. 223 “But, really—■” I began. “Now, please don't say a word.” tlie young man begged earnestly. “Wait till I explain, and you’ll understand it all. Come on !” and be hurried me into the train. “Your father,” the young man pursued, “is waiting for us at Fair Oaks.” “Oh, is he?” I gasped. “IIow do you know?” He left word for the foreman to tell me so ” he replied a little testily. “Oh, I beg pardon,” he murmured, contritely, “1 forgot. But wait,—here we are—” and he fairly pushed me into the most magnificent parlor car 1 had ever seen. When I was comfortably seated he began: “I beg your pardon for not intro- ducing myself. My name is Ralph Hunt; I’m your father’s secretary. You may have heard of me,” he added modestly. I didn’t dare deny it. “Oh, yes, many times,” I affirmed, “and I'm very glad to meet you. Won’t you sit down, Mr. Hunt?” He accepted the scat with a bow, but very stiffly, I noted, and went on with his explanation: “You see, about this train. Your father got off down the road to look at a new track .they’re laying, and left word for me to go on to Ball Knob to meet you, saying that he would go on to Fair Oaks on the express. But 1 didn’t get the message until we were already late. You won’t tell your father, I hope? And did you have to wait long at Ball Knob?” “Certainly I shan’t tell him,” I replied. “Instead 1 shall say how kind you have been; and as for waiting at Ball Knob, my train had just gone.” He brightened visibly. “Thank you, very much,” said he earnestly, “I’m glad you were not greatly inconvenienced. And now, are you ready for dinner?” We had an elegant dinner in the diner, and it was altogether charming. 1 defy any one to find a similar situation uninteresting. Fancy being as hungry as a bear, and having a splendid dinner as well as a good looking young man to help you enjoy it. For by this time.I had discovered that he was very good looking and a wholly respectable young fellow, instead of an escaped lunatic, as I originally thought him. I was satisfied that he had mistaken me for some railroad magnate’s daughter. “How did you know me at Ball Knob?” I inquired. “Oh, easy enough. You see, your father had told me that you were a blonde and tall and—well—beautiful,” lie added, “and there wasn’t a whole crowd of tall beautiful blondes around”—with a grin. “Yes, but you might have gotten the wrong one,” I suggested tentatively, “then what-?” “Small danger of that,” he replied easily. “Beautiful blondes aren’t common in these parts. But, really, you are very different from the girl I expected to find.” “No doubt,” I replied carelessly. “I shock every one: but I don’t see why you expected to find me at all,” I added quite truthfully. Tie looked a little puzzled, but continued: “1 rather imagined you would be like your father-—haughty, proud, and somewhat disagreeable.” “Is my father, then, so disagreeable?” 1 broke in. “Not at all, not at all! I—er—didn’t mean that, of course. But, you see, qualities that are very admirable in men are not so in girls,” he explained. I was much amused at his embarrassment, and wanted to keep on, but I didn’t dare. Talk of my assumed personality, while interesting, was likely to prove dangerous, so I asked: “When do we reach Fair Oaks?” 224 i Hau iiujjuu liicil i woiuu nave some excuse ior not seeing my father” until morning. Would it be best to tell the truth now, and be put oil at the next station ? But then I would miss my train and would not get home before Christmas Eve ; and as this train was going anyhow, it might as well do somebody some good. But what could I say to that old man, whom Mr. Hunt seemed to think so disagreeable? I decided to risk it anyhow. Mr. Hunt excused himself after dinner, and I must have fallen asleep, for the next thing T knew the train had stopped and I heard a gruff voice say, “Well, blunt, where’s Katharine?” The gruff tones struck terror to my soul; and I gripped the seat and prepared for the ordeal. “She’s in here, sir,” Mr. Hunt answered, and the next moment I looked up to find a stern-looking old man standing by the seat. Ah, here she—why, this is not Katharine! Are you crazy? What do you mean, sir?” he stormed, turning to Mr. Hunt; and as the latter was too bewildered to say a word, he broke out again: “I tell you 1 never saw this girl before. She’s an impostor! Speak, girl! Who are you?” I was furious in a moment. “Sir,” I exclaimed, rising with all the dignity I could summon—and I can be very dignified when I choose—“Sir, I didn’t tell any- body I was your daughter. Nobody ever asked me. I was hustled into this train without having my wishes consulted in the least, and far from doing vou anv wrong,” I finished hotly; you have insulted me.” You must fight the devil with his own fire. It did seem rather cowardly to put all the blame on poor Mr. Hunt, who really wasn’t to blame at all, but I didn't notice it at the time, and afterwards—well, I made up for it. Before the old man had time to say another word, altohugh he had been glar- ing at me ferociously, the porter came in with a yellow slip. “Telegrain, sir.” The old man opened the message and read it through several times. When lie looked up his eyes were twinkling, and he said : “I’m Superintendent Jordan, Miss, and I humbly apologize for my rudeness as well as for any inconvenience you may have suffered.” He hurried on: “This telegram is from Katharine,” he added, handing it to me. I read: “Missed special. Coming on next train, K. J.” I smiled up at him. I can understand how disappointed you were, and I’m sorry. My name is Marjorie Grant, and 1 live in Washington, lud., and 1 held out my hand to him. “We’ll see you on your train all right,” he said heartily, “unless you’ll stay awhile with Katharine, for you must meet her. I’ll see you in the morning,” he added, “and I’m glad you’re here. I'd have taken you on myself. You can scold Hunt here for the mistake,” and he left us. I say “us,” although Mr. Hunt looked more like a petrified tree than a man. “Don’t look so distressed, Mr. Hunt,” I cried gaily, “‘All’s Well That Ends Well,’ and he didn’t fuss.” “But I have been thinking how inconvenient this awkward mistake must be for you,” he said, coming to life again. Then I laughed. “On the contrary, it’s the most fortunate thing in the world for me. I took the wrong train and had to get off at Ball Knob, and might have waited for hours.” He looked relieved. “Well, Fm certainly glad it happened, then. And can you be the sister of Boh Grant, of Washington?” When I nodded, lie went on: “Why, Bob and 1 were at Yale together. What luck!” ;{; We got to St.' Louis early the next morning, and though Mr. Jordan insisted that I should wait and see Katharine, strangely, I had no desire to see her, and took the next train out. Mr. Hunt went part of the-way with me, and when he left lie said: “Miss Marjorie, may I run down to Washington some time?” “Oh, do! I exclaimed—“er—Bob will be so glad to see you !” 226 — — A Front Tooth ......................................... Miss Lazaims Peace......... • ...........................................

But the night was cold and dark and dreary, the executioner was inexperienced. Wodan and Thor were on the side of this beer-satiated son of Deutschland, and the pic- ture was no good. How and whence came this member of Chief Beagan’s Legion of Honor to this subarboreal studio? He came by way of Maxwell Spring, along that fashionable residence quarter, Adams Town, from the front portico of Pat- terson Hall; accompanied by an enthusiastic throng of students who were urging him to come and sit for his portrait, that an authentic record of his classic profile might be preserved for the admiration of future generations. Ho street car line runs through the grounds of Patterson Hall, so it is impos- sible to give an explanation of why he was there, unless he- thought that there, hal f concealed by the gloom of the old pine trees, he would be far from the maddening strife. But he never was so wrong; for soon this Baron von Limburg saw a band of foes advancing—foes as he considered them, but as they themselves thought, “at peace with the world and all the rest of’mankind,” a , crowd of merry-makers, who little realized that they were approaching this candidate for a Carnegie medal for bravery. As they wended their way toward the hall, they heard an utterance, which is by interpretation, “Halt! Come no furder.” But not a moment stopped or staffed they, not the least obeisance made they, when they recognized the cop standing in their way. Then it was that the valiant Meyers spoke those famous words: “I use die billy, I use die gun.” Xeither of which he did, however, but slowly retreated toward the building. Followed at every step, he at last began to ascepd to the portico. Ah! it was there, when he came into the light and declared that op that rock he’d stand till bitter death, then and there it was that all were simultaneously seized with an irrepressible desire to have a .photographic record of his mug, and if possible a phonographic record of that voice which had pealed forth phrases remarkable for their purity of English. To summarize, we can do no better than to use the words of the hero himself: “They took mein 'elinent, they took mein paclge, they took mein blackjack, und den they took mein picture.” Zinimie—“Iv zey cion’ stob de aggunmlation of large fortunes in diz country dere vill be un awvul zocial revolution bevore long.

Oh! a wonderful class, this ‘08, From the Paleozoic time, When side by side, in the ebbing tide, They crawled through the ooze and slime; Or skeltered with many a caudal flip Through the depths of the Cambrian fen : Their hearts were rife with the jov of life, For they loved State even then. III. Through the process of evolution They reached the Freshman year ; On this sweet cycle of misery They fain would drop a tear. For some of their gallant company Ate of the Lotus leaf; We had to leave them with Sandy— They’re there vet sunken in srief.' From the jaws of the jungles of Jay ville Rusticus came from his home, The barn breath breathed balm from his bootlets As he guided the plow through the loam. The boss of State’s ’leven was speechless When our hero loomed on the scene, Iiis chest was a human Gibraltar, His voice had a Vulcanoicl sheen. 233 V. And when at the close of a fortnight Our wonder was trotted in sight. The grand stand and rooters went “daffy” And howled themselves hoarse with delight. The foe faded fast, as a snowflake In Traphets most tropical pit. While Rusticus romped through the line Like a mastodon having a fit. VI. Thus, month by month, and year by year, We passed through the cycles strange. Our heroes and heroines are many As we follow the chain of change; Till there came a day in the lathe of time That, as Sophs we bade good-bye; Then the shadows broke and we all awoke As Juniors like stars in the sky. VII. This history reads like a romance The faculty all admit; We're still in the field of action And making history yet. The banner to lead is “Excelsior!” When the class has carried it through Wefll lay all our hard won trophies At the shrine of old White and Blue. 234 The Kiss I Did Not Get She gave consent and bent Iter head— T thought her strangely kind— With pouted lips, “Just one,” she said, And then she changed Iter mind— A woman’s privilege. Ah ! ’twas sad To relinquish it! And yet. The sweetest kiss ever had Was the kiss I did not get. Then how she laughed—the dainty sprite— And smoothed mv scowling brow; I played a churlish part that night, I scarce forgive her now. And yet ’twas better far, I’m sure. Than if our lips had met; For in remembrance will endure The kiss I did not get. So in Life: the aims we miss Will shine forever bright, And leave a fragrance like the kiss I failed to get that night. Ah! years may come and years may go, But ne’er shall I forget The sweetest kiss I’ll ever know— The kiss I did not get. 235 I. The dav is cold and dark and dreary. My heart is darker still than all the day; Outside Tis snowing, snowing, And the wind is blowing, blowing, But your face, my love, is lighting all the way. II. The day is cold and dark and dreary. I long for thee, to hold thee to niv heart. All my love for thee I'm showing. All my love on thee bestowing, For mv love is all for thee and what thou art. III. What though the winds beat with tempestuous anger, To make my heart he gladdened and rejoice. What though my grief is yet too sad to voice, What though my heart be pining. Thy memory still is shining IV. When 1 think of all thou art to me, my darling, IIow at our parting thou did'st to me cling, How thy love for me is burning, How thou wilt welcome my returning, My heart is glad, and all my life is Spring. We refer to the Hallowe’en of 1906, when a most extraordinary malady of forgetfulness became epidemic among our boys. Ages ago, Macbeth, tormented by the vision of a dagger, craved a medicine for rooted sorrow, raze out the written troubles of his mind. Ages ago, Macbeth pleaded thus, arid pleaded in vain. The year .of our Lord 1906, our boys, having visions (not of a dagger, but of a blue coat and a flash- light), had Macbeth beaten 8 up and 1 to play. For, without aid of either nurse or physician, they plucked from their memory all their Hallowe’en sorrows. The ease and grace with which these boys razed out the written troubles of their mind is surely a tribute to the power of the teachers of phsychology. But this form of menial aberration was only temporary. For it disappeared as mysteriously as it came, and you need feel no apprehension in regard to our memory 'hereafter.' Patterson Hall—The very name starts up a train of associated ideas: beef- steak. biscuit, coffee: coffee, beef-steak, biscuit; biscuit, coffee, beef-steak. And the question that perplexes the minds of the inmates of Patterson Hall is, have they preserved their beautiful complexions, the rounded cheeks, and loving dispo- sitions in spite of or because of their simple diet?

PRINTERS, STATIONERS BLANK BOOK MAKERS PRINTERS OF THIS ANNUAL Farewell XD so the last gong has sounded, and we are dismissed ! Alas, how unwelcome the sound ! It is the old, old story to tell, wherein truth is stranger than fiction. For fiction has if, that to students the world, over, the hour of dismissal form school is the happiest:, (lie sound of the last gong, the most welcome. Or perhaps this notion is not altogether fictional. It may he very true that oilier students may be very, very happy to he dismissed from other schools. It is none the less true that we are very, very unhappy because we must leave the Dear Old State College of Ken- tucky. Only those who have been permitted to know and love the grand old school can truly know the sadness of. this parting. Our limits prevent us from discussing at length the various sources from which our college life derived all its peculiar charm ; but we shall attempt- to discuss them according to their various merits. And foremost among these considerations stand our teachers. The realization has just come to us, now that we are leaving them-, that we might-have been very much better. We know there were times when we seemed rather' “refractory to the- hand of correction.” We know that there were times when it seemed to them that they were giving their precious time and their precious talent to students who neither appreciated nor loved them. Equally well, we know that they employed the most intense labor to educate us, body, heart, and brain. But after many dull efforts to give some bint of our gratitude and affection, the conclusion comes to. us that it is utterly impossible to tell what lies nearest the heart. And our parting words to them must partake of the nature of a petition, for we must beg of them to promise,— That when the fame of any member of the class of ’07 spreads across the continents, when the world becomes startled by his achievements in fields of art or science, they will take the credit of it to themselves and sav, “Now, there is a stu- dent with whom our influence remained, and who has made the world brighter and better because we labored with him at A)Id State. And also promise, that if any member of the same class goes down the “tobog- gan slide to oblivion,” they will attribute it to the influence of heredity and say (in the language of the vernacular), “It’s the nature of the beast.” Foot Ball! Ah, there is the greatest memory of all. All its glory is calling to us to-day as we write this letter, our farewell message to “Old State.” In years to come, we shall, always remember the foot ball games among the gladdest and hap- piest experiences of these glad and happy years. Even while we write we cannot pass without spending a few moments on remembrance. How readily we recall the wild exultant yells of “Old State,” ringing high and clear over the field; so high and clear that the yells of the “other fellows” were no more than an undertone, a feeble echo, as a voice underground. And now there comes to our mind’s eye the great and glorious picture of our girls, eager, enthusiastic, and bright-eyed. “They were for us,” so they said. Surely, then, it would be amiss to be boastful of our many victories, for with such a backing, who could be vanquished? But why dwell on this dear subject, for, after all, words would but beggar a description of the time, the place, the games, and the girls. With the mood which comes with the writing of this parting message, come hosts of familiar quotations on the subject. Poets and prose writers of all ages have rhapsodized on the last farewell of the exile, the parting words of friends, or the last hand-clasp of lovers! And yet neither in the classics nor modern letters can we find words or verses to express our sentiments on the sad occasion, the occasion of our parting with you, Old Alma Mater. We want words that will tell you how sad we are at going. We want words that will tell you how we'll miss you when we’re gone. We want words that will express our gratitude for the services you have rendered us. And, Dear Old State College of Kentucky, to convince you of these truths, to give you some, hint of our gladness and our sadness (gladness, because Ave have knoAvn and loved you; sadness, because we must say fareAvell), and to give the farewell touch to this, our farewell letter, we find no words more fitting and appropriate than these: “Weep no more, my lady: weep no more to-day, For Ave’ll sing one song for our Old Kentucky Home, For our Old Kentucky Home, far away.” FINIS M
