Apnlngia K J , It is with conflicting euzotions of satisfaction, aim-lfgfyj hope and fear that we present for the consideration and criticisni of the college and its friends, this first year book of the University 1Uedical College, KKTHE SCALPEL,H We realize that there are niany things we could do better on a second trial. It is always niore difficult to follow an uublazed trail and to create souiething without a pattern or a guide, than to pursue the beaten pathways of precedence. But we hope that our efforts have served to awaken an interest in this field of college endeavor in U. lll. C. and that the succeeding Junior classes inay profit by our errors and gain e.1'perieuce in our iniperfections. We have not attenzpted to produce a wofk of literary genius, but nierely to- leave with you a true picture of our college days, and if, in future years you chance to turn the dusty pages of this book and it brings to niind incidents and nienzories of happy days filled' with fellowship and good cheer, driving away the inists of tiine and distance, our work will not have been in vain. To the faculty, the nurses of the training school and the student body we wish to express our appreciation for their enthusiastic support and encourageinent. We are especially indebted to MR. F. B. IQYGER and W. R. DILLINGHAM of the Senior class, for their assistance in procuring Senior history, and to MR. D. S. LONG and' W. C. GADDIS of the Sophoniore and Freshnian classes. With the publication of this book the Scalpel board leaves the strenuous for the siniple life. May you be pleased with the results of our labors and your sentence be Well donef' Requiescat in pace.

Ellie illlehifa Hiatt Kumi: BY R. P. PRICE. JR. HE train is running clickety click, about thirty miles per hour, and I, the homecoming medical student, begin to recognize familiar buildings. Stretching my arms and legs, then pick up my suit case, and as the train comes to a jarring, grinding stop, I step down onto the platform. Half a dozen fellows whom I have grown up with stick out their hands and say, Hello, Doc. Everybody seems to take a special dig at me, asking wif I am still cuttin' 'em up?,' etc. I look on them all with a superior air, smile, and pass on to where the younger brother waits with the two sorrel ponies hitched to a dem- ocrat Ca two-seated spring wagoni, throw in the suit case, and drawing my raincoat carefully about me, so as not to get against the wheels, step up and sink down on the left side of the front seat. The younger brother, in overalls and jumper, climbs up on the other side with- out so much as cleaning the mud off his feet. The city chap, as that is what I am now since I've spent three months in the city, launches into the usual questions about the folks at home and finding that they have all managed to survive the ab- sence of one so important as himself, I settle down to listen to the news of the community. During this time we have driven up Main street at no slow pace, spattering mud on both of us as well as the 'suit case. We stop in front of the grocery store and load in a cracker box of groceries, then once more set out upon the road home, six miles through mud and water. Hello! Dr. Jones has built a new fence and painted his house. How things do change when a fellow leaves home. Willhite ,has been grading the road out to the city cemetery, just a quarter of a mile from the city limits. There are the same old tombstones in the cemetery, the grass and weeds have been burnt off and they show up plainer.
