In golden letters We do here enshrine All that in you as Worthiest We rate 5 Let bitter jealousy and burning hate Ne'er taint a thought that We to you assign. To-clay we face the world a hundred strong: To-morrow, one by one must stand alone: Yet still within each heart your light shall shin And when ye speak, no time shall seem so long, No task so hard, but each can hold his own, As when all Worked as one for Ninety-nine.

WALKER RECORD U For their czssi5m1zcez'n p1'epfL1'i71g tim 'WL get 'MIBITRODUCTIOHWR , . 4' 5,5 QI iq 1ff,, 1572 NOTHER year has passed, and once more the graduating class presents to the public its 'nsvycjig f RECORD, the aim of which is, as Mr. Green says of his History of the English People, 9 defined by its title. It is customary for readers of the book to look upon it somewhat in the light of a burlesque, and a means whereby the class may get even with the professors K f for grievances and hardships of by-gone days. But the RECORD is more than this, and despite the trivial garb in which its ideas are clad, it is history, in that it narrates the actual events and activities ofthe class during its four years' existence. Now, history may be written in two ways. It may be written from the inside out, that is, it may be written by those who have taken part in the events narrated 5 or it may be written from the outside in, by those who view the events from the outside and have no part in them. The former method is the one pursued in the RECORD: it is written from the inside, and intended primarily for those who have taken part in the history narrated. Consequently there are many references that will be appreciated by the members ofthe Class only. Nevertheless the RECORD will be of interest to outsiders as pre- senting a true picture ofthe various phases of college life at Pennsylvania. There are two classes of persons who will read the RECORD, those who have read the Records of previous years, and those who have not. To the latter class there will be much that is new, albeit, much that is unintelligibleg to the former class there will be little that is new, much that is old. Yet do we not all know that History repeats itself, and particularly in college classes? The same groups and varieties of men are to be found in every class, and they come under the same intiuences and instructors as the men who preceded them. Under these circumstances, it is but natural that there should be similarities in the Class Records. Nevertheless several innovations will be found in the RECORD of the Class of Ninety-nine. Foremost of these innovations is the effort to make the book a true class record. Since the fall of ,Q5,- when Ninety-nine, the last class of the eighteen hundreds, entered college, its career has been a distinguished one on the athletic held, as well as in Ag.. 5 the class room. The Committee has appreciated this fact, has felt that the RECORD of the Class of Ninety-nine should be one worthy of those who have sustained the honor of the Class, and has striven to make the book as full and exact a record of the doings of the Class as is possible. Another innovation that will at once strike the reader of the Records of the past few years, is the omission of the hours with the professors. But after all, this is not so much of an innovation as a return to an older custom. The importance of this departmenthas gradually increased during the past few years until it has become the 'most prominent feature of the book. Now, while we intend no disrespect to the professors in reducing their importance in the RECORD, and while we feel that if we had turned our energies in this direction we could have turned out some exceedingly breezy H hours, we feel that the time has come for a change, and that in making the book more of a Class affair we are justiiied in making the omission. Still another innovation in this year's RECORD is the effort made to secure a suitable cover design. At the suggestion of Mr. Lincoln, who deserves the highest praise for his work in the capacity of chief of the illustrating staff, the Committee offered a prize to members of the Class for the best cover design. This prize was awarded to Mr. R. L. Walker, and his design is to be found on the exterior of the book-it speaks for itself. It must not be supposed, however, that the decision of the Committee of Award was made without careful deliberation, as any one of the dozen or so designs submitted would have made a creditable cover for the RECORD ofthe Class of Ninety-nine. As our last matter goes to press, the news comes to us that Dr. Edgar Smith has been elected Vice-Provost. Ninety-nine was the first class to enter under the regime of Provost Harrison, Ninety- nine will be the first to graduate under that of Vice-Provost Smithg and more than ever does the Committee congratulate itself for choosing the picture of the Vice-Provost as a frontispiece to the RECORD. At the same time we wish it to be clearly understood that our choice was made before Dr. Smith was elected to the Vice-Provostship, and not because of his oiiicial capacity, but because we feel that he is the one man who deserves the highest honor that we, as a class, can confer upon a professor whom we love and respect, and who has done so much for our Class, our College, and our University.

Desiring to reciprocate this kindness on the part of the Dean So we helped the Sophomores make the welcome really warm. Chapel over, the hrst day's duties were quickly completed, and the career of Ninety-nine had begun. The first great event of every class, the rush and corner iight, took place the following Wednesday. Dunn, the Junior president, called the meeting to order, while Jim Winsor instructed us as to the proper mode of warfare. Whether it was Jimmie's instructions or the fact that we had just come from one of our early seances in mathematics is not known, but something certainly inspired us. As we swept down stairs, shouting our new yell composed by George 'I'homson, Pomp smiled all over the top of his head and swore in some language picked up about the time of the Revolution. Forming at the western end of College Hall the Sophomores were met at full speed, and after several charges and counter-charges, put out of our way. John Blakely called us into the assembly room and there ensued a battle royal. Here, too, the up- per class was vanquished, and cheers rent the air when Tub Andrews, jumping down on the Sophomore's heads, sought to rival Mohammed by hovering between Heaven and earth. For the sake of custom and pre- cedent the referee declared the fight a draw, we departing happy in our victory. The next few days saw the beginning of class politics, and marked an ,EFF F epoch in our history. Ninety-nine has excelled in many things. She has won ills.: l il ifliiigi' 7 i ' 'el ' i i Q 5, -. it glorious victories on the gridiron and on the water, but her favorite amusement I l t l-i pb i2!',feiEiiiiiiii,:.. .- 9 eu, .. 3 'iiuiii l f iiiii X i i ' ' li ' ,,. ff A ' .

Be it the momentous question of choosing a president or be it the insignihcant matter of cutting Hallett or Schwatt, a canvass must be H jg Q I Uhll made and votes solicited. So, in our early history we gained an inkling of future developments by the Wharton School snap caucus and the nomination X of Charlie Wesley as our first president: first in war, first in peace, and first to the meeting being run by one DeYoung, who has since departed for the far Y , l by W , W West. Then came the burdensome duty of adopting a constitution. At the fxixfqn Wpnlm llillw., meeting called for that purpose our president wore out two algebras and three --flixgx' V WW ' Ji' hymn books trying to enforce order. Finally, after nearly everyone had left the room, the task was accomplished, but for what purpose none to this day , ,A has been able to ascertain. The Seniors, recognizing our peculiar merit, decided on a reception, and the library witnessed a love feast addressed by Fullerton, Wesley and other great men. Under the leadership of Barry Colahan and Tub Andrews the football team succeeded in defeating all comers except the Medicals H and the Harvard Freshmen. I 'FF' 81 fi 157.2 f do the talking. In the class meeting he was elected with slight opposition, V K .-x t' vt' I i ' l The class was now pretty well settled down, as was shown by the ease with which cuts were taken, and by Tommy Pierce's smoking a pipe. This fact was recognized alike by the class and by the powers that be. The class showed its self- esteem by assuming to dictate to the faculty, the Wharton School petitioning the Academic Council to take mathematics out of the course. How that petition was received can be dis- covered only by searching the private diary of George Sagendorph and those of other leading lights of our early days. The powers that be showed their appreciation by opening Houston Hall and permitting us to be the hrst Freshmen to enter its portals. What that Hall has clone for Pennsylvania it is not in our province to tell. With the passing of Christmas-tide came the ebb and flow of another tide, and when the Hood had receded, high and dry on the course of our stream were strewn the corpses of many Freshmen. The cause of all this sorrow was the mid-year examinations. Weeks before the hour of trial arrived the halls were filled with trembling members of Ninety-nine. Reds Humphreys was so scared he couldn't smoke and Boisert so troubled he couldn't sing in Chapel, both of which conditions can indicate only the most abnormal anxiety. When the tidal wave had passed by over half a hundred men joined the ranks of the unemployed. For those who did manage to stay in, the second term opened under conditions, some of which were favorable and some of which were not. After our first supper, a slightly turbulent affair, the hrst great event of this term was of course the election. After a sham battle Donaldson was placed in the presidential chair and other officers chosen for the numerous plums of the year. Soon afterwards, there was talk of the Bowl Fight, truly one of Pennsylvania's most time honored and revered customs. Ninety-eight looked askance at the warriors among us, so arranged to have the grounds patrolled by their friends, the police, and to charge admis- sion. Ray Tunnell is reported to have said that this latter provision was to pay for seven rooms in the hospital, but as no one ever confirmed the rumor we cannot speak with authority. When the plan of cam- paign was considered, Abrahams, who came from Texas, strenuously advocated our having a long rope, so that in case any trouble arose true justice could be meted out. This plan was opposed by the more tender hearted of the class, so a compromise was effected by which the rope was to be used for tripping up our opponents and throwing them in the mud. This mild treatment was thought to be all right, but to make sure Amos Goddard was consulted and lie assured us it was not against the spirit of either the Thirty-nine Articles or the Westminster Catechism. For several days prior to the fight Fullerton had obligingly sung appropri- ate hymns in Chapel, such as K' Oft in danger, oft in woe, in order to cheer us up. It was a glorious sight as the two classes waded out on the muddy field on that twentieth day of March. Just to start off in good shape our lynchin g apparatus was stretched across the Sophomore's advance, and by the time they had picked 82 themselves up Charlie Harrison, our bowl man, had neatly jumped the fence. Then for the next few minutes the battle waged hercely, and when the referee called us off everyone felt well satisfied with the con- dition of Ninety-eight. ' The term was drawing to a close, and the efforts of the class were bent towards the usual spring per- formances. In the june examinations, through the machinations of Gibbons and Hallett, many more individ- uals were added to the long list of our ex-members. Harry Hodge, having taken an elective' course in pool, Hunked in all his subjects so as to have a clean record, and by so doing was qualiied to join the coming class of Nineteen-hundred. Q The early autumn days of '97 brought with them that conhdence and superiority possessed by all true- blue Sophomores, everyone looking happy at having escaped safely the trials of Freshman year. The ranks of the class, though depleted by the large number who had been retired on half pay, were nevertheless joyous in the possession of some few additional choice spirits. Chief among these was Ambruster, the terror of all Freshmen, the enemy of all professors. Of course, he went to the Whartoii School, and let his light shine dur- ing the lectures of the great men who there hold forth. Eddie Mechling was placed in the presidential chair, and started out on a platform with but one plank, namely, that all Freshmen should be abolished. Q E IFR Lgifo As our first year was made up of trials and tribulations, so L.. rg' N, was this, our second, made up of many triumphs and victories. p Early in the term Ninety-nineis crew, captained by Stanley Rogers, ' iil wiljh i lil, 'Va i ,., i' 1 landed the Championship. On the football field such success did gi AMW glilili'l lf X219 not attend us, but no complaints can be made, as a budding scholar p ii f ,A iii' , XJ ' I fix named Fisher afforded plenty of enjoyment. After we had played JJ l 1 ijnfg a game with the Medicals, Mr. Fisher undertook to cheer those gb T 7 'Ni -f ,A I Q individuals in Chapel. The Dean Wanted to ,spank him, but having , I Z tw arealization of our position we interceded and the next morning O X I I fm, Fisher apologized to our class with all due haste. He was a Fresh- H N- .A LL! K 1 W' man. Having been so well trained on the team of Ninety-nine, f il! Q Billy Morice graduated to the Varsity and at once set about ' X iii: 'fx V XM' performing such marvelous feats that even the Pe1m.g1Zwm'an deigned to mention them. Fullerton was overcome with sheer fatigue, after trying to manage us for a year, and Lamberton was installed in the Dean's office. We have had a large and varied experience in deans, and can now give reliable 83 advice at low rates to any institution seeking knowledge in this direction. Penniman was chosen as Lam- herton's assistant, so to hin1 all wayward ones were called. Under this government the oihce was caged off much after the manner of the Zoological gardens. So delighted were the members of the class with this arrangement that they used to Hunk in several subjects every month, that they might be called before the Dean and talk with Josh's typewriter. As the holidays drew near Ninety-nine blossomed out in a new direction and gave her first dance. Graced, as it was, by so many handsome men, its success was assured, and Houston Hall henceforth became the only place for all Sophomores. The mid-years did not this time have the terrors of their predecessors and only a few were pushed out of the front door. But now Mechling was searching his brain for all possible means of creating a disturbance that were ever heard of out in Germantown. After many sleepless nights and scores of small sized rushes with the Freshmen, he at last hit upon the plan of not allowing those indi- viduals to have their picture taken. Further than this, the bowl was to be brought forth, and the Freshies made to fight. On the chosen day, all good and true members of the lowest class gathered on the Library steps and smiled in sweet anticipation of how they would look in a class picture. All at once Ninety nine swept down upon them, and the hght was on. Out in front of College Hall the battle waged fast and furious, and many were the curious sights. The Dean, having a righteous fear for the campus, tried to stop the struggle, and the first thing he saw was Forrest Magee in the act of throttling a seven foot Freshman. Forrest, hearing some distant words which sounded like Academic and Council, clasped the Freshman around the waist and fell over backward before the Dean had a chance to recognize him. Slowly but surely, Yaskawa, the bowl man, was pulled out on Woodland Avenue, and all was going well for the Sophomores. As the bowl was about to be brought out certain persons appeared, wearing peculiar hats and coats of a bluish tinge, and after careful consultation the fight was abandoned for that day. When the real bowl fight did occur the class held up its end in the usual successful manner. Another Championship, that of our baseball team, was added to the long list in the spring of this year. The time for Cremation was drawing near, and after long debates on the matter Hallett was chosen as a tit subject for the flames. For several days prior to the exercises Charlie Gilpin played the Chapel organ and we practiced the songs. No two ever struck the same note, but nevertheless the music was sublime. A large and appreciative audience witnessed the execution of revenge on Hallett, and thanks to the genius of Tommy Donaldson the affair was a great success. No one knew his part except Parry, who would rather makea speech than eat his native Jersey watermelons, and Doe Morgan, who didn't have any. A few 34 straggling members of the band played when they had a chance and the class sang, every man for himself. Once in a while they would strike the same note, and then the sound was lovely. The true merit of the musical part of the production can be understood when it is known that such fine voices as those of Charlie Day and Ed Elliot lent their charm to the occasion. Tommy Donaldson took the part of the Devil and appeared most natural, while Sagendorph and Bee Hemphill gave a performance rivaled only by the dancing of Charlie ,Morgan. Whether it was because the examinations were passed, or just because of our sheer joy fat burning a professor, we do not know, but be that as it may tl1e Cremation of Ninety-nine stands as one of the proudest achievements in all her history. O11 reassembling in Junior year, and while standing around making bets as to the exact width of the stripes on Dave Fleming's new shirt, one of the most striking impressions was the deference with which the Faculty treated us. Perhaps the Cremation had had some effect, or perhaps it was because of the many illustrious men in our ranks, but for some reason or other our Junior year was a long advance in this respect over the two former ones. By means of a small sized campaign there was chosen as president, Theodore Lane Bean, late of Nor- ristown, but since removed to a happier clime farther down the banks of the Schuylkill. Our Junior year was even more glorious than those gone by. Before many weeks elapsed the crew won the Championship of the College. Early in the Fall Pennsylvania administered that overwhelming defeat to Lafayette, which more than made up for the little trouble during the previous year, and in consequence an unusually large number of presents were given the following Christmas. The only notable event of the mid years was the departure of Ambruster to the ranks of Nineteen-hundred. He believed that variety was the spice of life and that it was well frequently to change courses. Truly no one ever adhered more strictly to a principle than Amby i' did to this. The junior Ball, needless to say, was a great success, and the class added to its repu- tation by giving a supper at which the speeches were certainly not dry. Towards the end of the term the clouds of war were seen to gather on the horizon, and it is said that the number of those who read the New York journal almost exceeded the readers of the Red and Blue. The class was well represented in that war, Bill Morice, Max Ruegenberg, Nelson, Tom Peirce, Bean, our president, and others, went forth to do their part. The spring of '98 was a memorable one in the annals of Pennsylvania athleticsg and while Mechling, Shengle, Parry and others, were gaining laurels on the track, jim Hall and Wallace Lee were working to win the race at Poughkeepsie which gave to old Penn a quadruple championship. just before the close of the term another political ight was enjoyed by all factions of the class. The contest for president of Senior year was on, and a bitter contest it was. For many weeks the battle waged and the fun continued. No one was killed, though, and finally Conshohocken had to take off her hat to West Chester. Happy was the day on which our final assembly took place in Senior year. Deeply engrossed as we were in the College work of our last year, the victories on the field and on the water were not so numerous, but still we held our own. Among the various startling announcements made known to us was one which caused a smile of astonishment to all our literary men. This was that the great man of former years, Homer Smith, the rival of Kipling and Anthony Hope, the brilliant ornament of Schelling's happy family, had departed to the far distant island of Hawaii to tutor a private family. Since that time we have had no news of him, but perhaps some day we shall hear of a great poet bursting into song and see the laurel wreath rest- ing on the sunny brow of Pennsylvania's Homer. The events of the year passed rapidly. The Ivy Ball eclipsed all other Ivies, and the luxury of the affair can be seen when it is known that Arthur Spencer insisted on ordering a case of champagne--for the patronesses. The Faculty graced with their presence the banquet board, adding their glowing tributes to the eloquent speeches of Donaldson, Parry and Stern. Another election was near and the result was the choosing of the galaxy of orators and poets whom we shall hear on this occasion. Our graduation day was near, and all Nature seemed to welcome Ninety-nine to the world of struggle and endeavor. The swiftly passing weeks were employed in a hnal ehfort for success, and having succeeded we come before you to-day. Standing with thankful hearts, the doors of our Houston Hall seem to swing open once again, and paus- ing on the threshold we see spread before us the pano- rama of our career. That career has witnessed an extraordinary development in our Alma Mater, has seen epochs in her history marked by Franklin Field, the Dormitories, and many new ediiices 5 and has been ennobled by the efforts of self-sacrificing men to place her name high up on the ladder of success. During the four years we have been together many victories have been won and many good works accomplished. It is eminently 'VL 86 beitting that before all is over we should pay a parting tribute to our honored President. His was a hard task, and how he has accomplished it we leave you to judge. The sands are running low, the doors are closing, and as we pass beneath the portals we hear the words of our foster-mother giving ns her blessing and wishing us God-speed. 4 One hundred years ago the graduating class of the University in Philadelphia sent out to the world its eight members. One hundred years later the number to go forth has increased more than a dozen fold. The small organization at the close ofthe Eighteenth century has developed into the great University at the close of the Nineteenth century. The century which has witnessed such progress as the world never before has known likewise has seen this institution go steadily forward until now she acknowledges no superior in all the land. It seems but proper that on looking back over her career and turning our gaze to years yet to come, the members of Ninety-nine should feel a deep thankfulness in being among those enrolled under the Red and Blue. Their history as a class you have heard to-day: their history as individuals is yet to be made. But when in future years you hear, as you most surely will, oftheir performing any deed that is noble or participating in any work calculated to promote the interests of their fellowmen, remember that the spirit which prompted those deeds was nourished with a fostering care within the walls of Old Pennsylvania, which to-day we leave forever-yes, forever. FREDERIC L. CLARK. 5 KQH4 f kk? is C f tl T l the ill fm 87 .Q we Class poem rf J Now all too soon the great year rolls around, And Spring-tide with a lavish hand, Dark Winter's icy fetters long unbound, Scatters her largess o'er the landg And as with doubtful looks we stand Counting the years so swiftly flown, And searching for the path unknown That we must follow in the coming tin1e,- Unmuflled and in hushed expectancy The bells prepare to toll the solemn chime That heralds the new century. ' Have we awakened from a pleasant sleep, All unaware that time's bright steeds were flying? More like the wanderer who mounts the steep To find the wished for bourne beneath him lying, We turn, and cast a glance behind us Marking the footprints by the way, While each one serves but to remind us Of some not unrernernbered dayg And pausing, we would fain Gaze backwards for a longer view, For now in colors new The past is gilded and whate'er of pain We met upon our journey here 88 To present time and mood has ended Like shadows in the picture blended. And yet that bitter cup of life Not oft our lips has touched, nor aught of fear, Of cramping doubts or weary strife, Gppression or remorse We know, quite unrestrained our course, Bursting with ease the thongs of sorrow, Ever heeding not the morrow, Waking with a conscience free, Sullen Care, we've laughed at thee ! And still another longing glance we cast Into the graven past That beckons to us with a friendly smile, And we would hasten not, but stay awhile, For as we stand a certain change Unseen hath wrapped its folds around, We tread with altered step upon the ground, We look about and all is new and strange, The Spring is here, but not the same As when in former years it came Bringing all freshness and the robin's lay, With promise of a careless holiday. Perhaps such pastime is for us no more, And Autumn drear With Spring is linked too near, Then we are like one parting from his native shore When distance cast a tender hue About the scenes he one time knew So well, and naught could cheer the heart Save far away the sea-gull's cry 39 And the dark clouds gathering in the sky, Then, as he heard the dull waves part Before the prow, the blue shore seemed to smile, And he would hasten not but stay a while. And as we gaze a little longer, The fancy comes and ever stronger Wakens the hidden pictures of the brain, In bolder cast outlining Each well known scene again, And all with silver touch rehning. Mayhap we would exchange- that bondage slight For this strange freedom, that scarce freedom seems, Rather an exit into the great night, Where many paths lie open, but the sight The guiding power hnds no assuring beams To nourish it, and one may stumble there Who knows l1ow long? Perchance we would repair Once more to the Hreside and the quiet dreams Safe from the darkness that appalsg Perchance to thy secluded walls O Mater Alma, since the time has past, Now that the fateful die is cast And we must part, we would return, To bask once more about the tires that burn Upon thy hearth,-to spend another hour In sweet forgetfulness of storm and night g We know the richness of thy dower, And never fairer shone thy beacon light Than now when We must view it from afar,- May it shine on, and gathering strength with years 90 Burn like a guiding star To light the dim, uncertain way That lies before us, till those hopes and fears That now, mere idle dreams of day Mere sallies of the passing wind Scarce ruffle the untroubled fantasy, Till they, no longer phantoms of the mind, Have taken flesh in bold reality. But hark ! what sound is this that strikes the ear Like the soft roll of distant thunder, Swelling and dying, then again more near? New thoughts press upward and a silent wonder Seizes the mind as now we stop to hear. Have we not fancied in some quiet hour That we could feel the throbbing pulse, the power That moves the world's unceasing strife, And turns the restless wheel of life P Have We not wished, nay longed with heartfelt yearning To join ere now the lists and face to face Meet with humanity? And shall we, ever turning Regretfully our backward steps to trace, Heed not the sound, that like the thin, clear note Blown from the trumpet's throat, Calls from afar and bears the high command To hasten on? The smouldering fires awaken, No more in faltering doubt we stand, No more the breast is shaken With sighs of parting, for the way is clear, And we must onward move, not linger here. QI All is not darkness, for life breaks no ties Without a seeming darkness and a night That first confounds, until the watchful eyes Espy once more the distant, feeble light, Creeping apaceg and soon to burst In all its wonted splendorg we have passed The hour of darkness and the sun's rays cast New brilliancy, a growing thirst To venture boldly forth impels, To shatter the long woven spells Of hearsay, and to test life's promised worth. High o'er the hills the great sun mounts, and earth, Decked in her morning dress Of fairest loveliness, Speaks with enchanting melodies To ear and eye, the fragrant air Quickens the pulse, a thousand hopes arise. ' Thus in the picture of a morning fair Life now flings wide her open gates And smilingly our entrance waits. Away with silent hope and expectation, Away with fancy's doubts and drea1ns,-- Yonder the horizon gleams I Yonder the torrent of a mighty nation Tumbles its troubled waters swift and strong, While we, a streamlet from the mountain side, Chafing our banks, bound merrily along, Soon to be lost within the 'swelling tide. CHARLEs T. MITCHELL 92 HE CLASS 1 PROPHECY T has been a time-honored custom for each graduating class to tix upon some poor unfortunate whose brain, already taxed with approaching examination difficulties, must be racked for a convenient method of falling asleep and of seeing prophetic visions relative to the future of his classmates. The turn had come to me, and though falling asleep presented no diiiiculties, I unfortunately sleep a sleep profound and singularly free from dreams. It was with an overwhelming appreciation of this phys- ical incapacity for the task before me that I unexpectedly encountered an experience which, While relieving me of my prophetic diiiculties, gave me my desired View into futurity in a Way that was frightfully real. A number of us had entered into a discussion on the relation of spirit to body-the elimination of the material-on the existence of a spiritual consciousness removed from the physical organism, and on kindred 93 topics of a fanciful and mystic nature. Inclined to View these matters sceptically, I agreed to witness a spiritualistic seance in order to more firmly ground my views. Arrived at the dwelling of the medium, I was ushered into the scanty confines of a room whose dingy furnishings were well calculated to inspire a feeling of spiritual unrest. At the further end of this cheerless room hung a mass of black drapery which, in the ghastly flicker of the dim gas light, took on a singularly funereal aspect. There were but two persons in the room when I entered. They seemed evidently conversant with the mode of seance procedure, and I was impressed with the confidence with which they accepted all they heard and saw, whenever the curtains parted and the spirit visitors appeared. I was interested to note that the spirits summoned by these two individuals were invariably those of dereased friends or relatives, while the questions asked were, with but a few exceptions, relative to the future, The scene was, to say the least, mysterious. The luminous ngures which appeared as the draperies were withdrawn, the clear, distinct tones of the spirit voice, all seemed inexplicable. Yet the words were accepted by the two eager listeners with an expression of confidence which argued a proven belief in the absolute infallibility of the spirit revelations. At length the two visitors arose, seemingly satisfied, ,and withdrew, with an air of solemnity and reverence. I was left alone, still unwilling to admit anything of the supernatural in what I had witnessed. A sudden idea struck me. Why not give the question a personal test? If futurity was an open book to the spirit consciousness, why not employ this means in the divination of my classmates' future and make my prophecy a reproduction of actual revelation, and not a mere creature of the imagination. Simultane- ously the memory of a classmate Whom we had lost and mourned Hitted through my mind. I would summon him through the agency of the medium. Were spiritualism not a deceit I could at once determine its reality, and learn the future in store for my classmates to a certainty. Accordingly when the medium questioned me with whom I would converse, I fearfully declared myself with a feeling of having been almost guilty of sacrilege. The curtain parted and a chill crept over me as I looked at the apparition before me. My hands felt chill and clammy as I pressed them to my temples, my heart seemed to contract and to beat as though under powerful constraint. A bluish light played like a halo around the glorified face and figure which I almost feared to recognize as my old classmate. I-Ie smiled serenely, and the awful realness of the cheery voice in which he asked in what he could help me, was overwhelming. The Class-their Future-the Prophecy, I stammered out. Let me see it-don't speak, it seems too weirdly real. Dare you discard the body-think-the spirit eye alone can see. As these words fell upon my ear I underwent a momentary struggle. 'K I can, I dare, I will, I uttered, and then sunk back into the chair exhausted as though from intense physical exertion. 94 The feeling of nervous excitement left me and gave way to a sublime appreciation of eternity as I had never known it before. The spirit presence I felt rather than saw beside me. A sense of sight and hearing, independent of eye or ear, hlled my consciousness. Colors, shades, forms, vague outlinings, sounds and melodies, blended together in one glorious harmony. Presently the flitting sensations coalesced. A draughting room appeared before me. Around a desk littered with color sketches, blue print details, and the elevation drawing of a chaste and delicately ornate Renaissance theatre three ngures were seated. Well, the award has been made to us, and I fancy the corner of Fifteenth and Chestnut will be a trifle more attractive in consequence. The voice was unmistakably like Lincoln's languishing drawl. Thomas and Kreig, who completed the trio, silently assented. At thisjuncture, a igure hitherto unobserved, chimed in with Yes, we did make a pretty good job of it, didn't we? I now looked at the figure more closely. It was that of a man of all-work. He was clad in overalls, and had momentarily stopped his sweeping of the ofiice when he spoke. A look of reproach from Krieg silenced Baker, however, and K' Fido 'I returned to his servile duties. I attempted to examine more closely the elevation plan before me. It seemed to expand, to mellow into material form and grow luminous with a thousand lights, which threw the fine porportions into heavy masses of light and shadow. The imposing doorway faded into the splendor of the entrance hall, rich in the display of color and delicate marble traceries. I could scarce observe the wealth of architectural beauty which unfolded, when the vast amphitheatre opened itself before me. Upon the stage an actor, for all the world like Ted Donaldson, was making a manful struggle to develop dramatic force from the role in which he appeared. He had not struggled in vain, for when the curtain rang down, which soon it did, a burst of spontaneous applause shook the house. In response to the vigorous appeals for the author, a slight form in which I recognized Charleyu Mitchell, arose from the box at the right ofthe stage. As I did so the scene changed, the entire parquet faded away and a dance fioor took its place. Jewels Hashed and colors radiated from fair women in box and balcony. It was evidently the occasion of the Charity Ball. Behind a screen of palms Charley Gilpin raised his baton and the stirring notes of Franklin Fieldn announced that the opening march had begun. I waited, but there was no response to the thrilling cadences. At the entrance on the stage two men were disputing the right to lead in the march which was to open the ball. In their heated faces I could discern the features of Charley Harrison, Jr., and of Arthur Spencer. Before I could learn the outcome, a change had come over the house. The galleries condensed, the hall became rectangular. A raised dais took the place lately occupied by the stage. It was the House of KI 95 Representatives I beheld. The tall, lank form of the Speaker had arisen to address the auditors circled before him. A suspicion of his indentity crept over me, and as I heard him advocate an appropriation for the University of Pennsylvania, I knew I was right, for the honorable gentleman was none other than Fred Clark. The recognition of my classmate seemed a signal for the transformation of my vision. The galleries elongated and became thickly peopled. The reverend representatives lined up against one another, and the desks before them sank into the sombre plane of a football held. The red and blue jerseys and the white H's on a crimson ground told me that Pennsylvania was lined up against Harvard in the annual contest. The scoreboard recorded Pennsylvania 14, Harvard 11. The ball was well advanced into the Harvard territory, but with only two minutes more to play Harvard was holding with dogged determination. The Pennsylvania captain stepped back a moment, while the coaches whom I knew to be Max Ruegenberg and Billy 1' Morice gave a few terse words of advice. The signals sounded, the weak point in the Harvard line discovered by the coaches was struck, and the ball went over the line for another touch-down. The goal was kicked, and when time was called the score stood 2o-1 I. A coincidence which I was able to appre- ciate struck Max. I saw him call the attention of the lady by his side to the figures still standing upon the score-board. They both smiled, and I knew Max had at last succeeded in his quest for the girl who lived at 2or1. The chaotic scene succeeding the end of the game seemed organizing itself. The people shrunk visibly and appeared to tuck themselves in standing postures along rows of shelves. At length this puzzling transformation was complete-an alcove in the Library appeared. The cries and shouts of the struggling throng had subsided into the chatter of a group of noisy students, engaged in a lively conversation around the table in the centre. Frances Timney-a triiie more matronly and robust than when I had seen her last-soon made her appearance, warning the noisy offenders to stop talking, or she'd have to report them to her husband. What's the trouble, my dear ? a voice sounded close by. The voice was followed by the placid face of Walter jones in his official capacity of libra- rian. His calm face flushed as he saw the cause of his wife's discomfort. A scene of havoc ensued. Wheri quiet was restored, the table had assumed a more elaborate form-the walls of the alcove were receding into a spacious and sumptuously-fitted law oiiice. But two iigures remained at the table. They were engaged in writing. From time to time the smaller of the two would consult a law book before him, and as each page was 'nnished he would pass it to his companion, who then proceeded to 96 transform it into an English of singular originality. The scene was too suggestive of the way Magee had been wont to reconstruct Stern's 40-page essays for McMaster, to be further annotated and adapted by the rest of the class, for me to mistake the identity of these two Hgures. From their conversation I gleaned that Mrs. Walter Mosely Van Kirk was bringing suit for divorce against her husband. Poor Van's popularity with the ladies had always made me fearful for his domestic happiness, and herein I saw the tragic result of his wild ways. Stern stopped writing for a moment to consult a ponderous tome, but was soon recalled by the energetic voice of Magee z Come, get together, Stern, I'm on your last page now. By the way, you want to brace up. I couldnlt get much out of that last point. We'll have to keep the argument up to champion- ship form. I saw Singer to-day--he has the defence, you know. He gave me the old bluff of not having opened a book on the case, which means he's been working nights for the past week. While Magee had been speaking the door had opened and I became conscious of the presence of K' Tad J' Bean. Magee slyly gathered together the papers strewn around him as though suspicious that Bean's visit was signihcant of a covert scheme on the part of the defence, to discover the lines of argument to be pursued by the plaintiff's counsel. With an easy air of confidence and assurance Bean broke the silence. Well, boys, he ejaculated, I suppose you know I am running for Common Council from the Fourth Ward? The boys are holding tirrn, but I think a little speech might stir them up a bit. I have a good enough voice, if I only knew what to say, I'd make a first rate speaker, I think. You haven't any outlines of a defence of the politics of Quayism, have you ? Stern reached his hand into a drawer. Here's an article Magee and I worked up on that subject while at college, he added, and then handing him two papers, Take either one, they are both the same. A trifle shallow, I know, Stern continued apologetically, yet Ithink the article will suit you pretty well. Without appearing to appreciate this remark Bean reached eagerly for the proffered papers. Stern and Magee dwindled into one and a solitary hgure sat before the desk. The room meanwhile had modified in size and shape, and had developed into the apartments of the mayor in City Hall. He was eagerly reading the morning's paper. Presently he liung it aside and smiled. It was Bee Hemphill. Well, I see Bean is councilmanelect from the Fourth Ward, he said half to himself. Lane always could control the mucker vote, he added, and then turned to the 3ro,ooo,ooo appropriation bill for improved water supply, which he had just signed. He passed into an ante-room and I heard him tell the clerk to request the Chiefs of the Bureaus of Public Works and Surveys that he desired to see them. Then he returned and began to finger his watch impatiently. The Bureau Chiefs soon made their appearance, and I recognized in them Eddy Elliot and J. R. Brown. Hemphill turned and greeted them familiarly. I've signed that f-- 97 water appropriation bill, he said when all were seated. Now let me hear how you propose constructing our new aqueduct. Remember, it must not exceed f5,ooo,ooo, for but j5Sro,ooo,ooo are appropriated. I appreciate the fact that city politics were evidently unchanged. With the closing words of I-Iemphill's speech, the outlines of the room and its occupants faded, and when the forms and colors again assumed tangible form the Keeley Institute stood before me. The exterior opened and gave place to aview of the office of the dean of the institute. The dean, who proved to be none other than Ben Frankland, now as ever opposed to strong drink, had just arisen and was greeting a person of modest manners and intelligent appearance, whose square black hand bag declared him to be a homeopathic physician. You come very opportunely, Doctor james, I heard Frankland remark. I have a troublesome patient here, and the resident physician has just gone out. The noise coming from an adjoining room gave evidence of the truth of this utterance. Mingled with the sounds of a general commotion I could distin- guish a few intelligible words. I'll fight the-hic-man who says t'ell with Lehigh-hic, I tell you its Pennsylvania-hic-first, but Lehigh's a--hic--close second. The voice and the sentiments expressed told me that Billy Arrison was within. The vision of depravity which I feared would next appear before me I was spared, much to my relief, for the other voices sounded familiar, and I suspected that Champagne Bill and Kinky Dave would have figured prominently in its vagaries. ' The next scene was, however, colored by this atmosphere of social degradation. As the shifting vision developed, a crowd of idlers, attracted by the oratory of a street fakir, presented itself. I could see his face but indistinctly, yet I knew from his patriotic appeal to the crowd as enlightened citizens of the United States, and the inevitable tribute to Old Glory, that the orator was Parry. He proceeded in his endeavors to induce his hearers to purchase for one dollar the bottle of hair dye he was selling. I represent the nrm of Foster 81 Tunnell, he explained, and the dye I offer you has all the qualities of a pure pigment, and the tenacity of glue. Here you are-in fourteen different colors. Remember, ladies and gentlemen, it is the dye I sell you, the gold watch and chain we give you free. A hgure pressed through the crowd. Handing the speaker a crisp dollar bill he requested a bottle of red dye, upon the receipt of which he fell back into the crowd. I could see his white head as it moved through the gaping ranks. When he at length emerged, I saw that the beguiled one was Bob Pilling. The confused crowd seemed to disperse till but a few remained. Parry's impressive tones developed into a succession of dull intermittent thuds. When the figures before me became distinguishable, I dis- 98 covered that the vision represented a Salvation Army meeting. Amos Goddard was lustily beating a big bass drum, from which issued the sounds that stirred my consciousness. McClellan, in the uniform of a captain, had just arisen to speak, but was interrupted by Wise, who began to sing a religious ditty to the tune of Her Bright Smile Haunts Me Still. From the rough staging which served for a speaking platform beamed the leering face of Bossert, whose inevitable smile gave to the tune a tangible significance. A prom- ising subject for evangelization had just entered. The shuffling walk and languid manner of the individual convinced me that the new comer was Lucas. He sank into a chair at the back of the room, and before McClellan cduld reach and minister unto him, had sunk into a peaceful slumber. A stocky-built and well- fed policeman approached the sleeping form. Shaking 'him roughly he said reproachfully, Come, get out of this. It takes you bums for nerve. Why, that's where I always sleep myselff' Lucas aroused himself and retorted as he slouched out, That's just like you, 'Reds' Humphreys. Can't let anybody else rest since Hemphill put you. on the force. As Reds sat down he seemed undergoing a gradual change. In fact the whole scene was being transformed. In the modihed person of the seated figure I recognized a semblance to myself. A sense of physicial anticipation of what the future had in store for me accompanied my hitherto unfettered spiritual vision. Before me the features of my counterpart expressed with bewildering veracity, every motion which disturbed the serenity of 1ny spiritual consciousness. The transformation of the scene was now complete. When I looked to determine the nature of the environs in which my future was to be shown, it was with the physical eye. I was peering into a tall mirror, which the mass of black drapery framed in. I saw the reflection of my own form and the bare wall of the room in which I sat. The seance was over.

F. flilfcl GO Lf-1. 9 REVIOUS to the entrance of the class of ,go there Went forth a decree of the Academic Council to the effect that after 1895 no prep school certificates would he accepted in lieu of entrance examinations. Imagine the impression that such a decree would make upon men like Reds H H nllnni Humphreys and Allen Bodine. Truly were there mountings of steeds, and burnings of midnight oil. and the .harsh sound of grinding was heard in the land. Is it strange then that ,QQ entered college with seventy men in the Arts Department, and that in three short years many of them have fallen like Lucifer son of the morning! It is true that not all of them have fallen hy order of the Academic Council. Some have fallen into businessg others have fallen into the Law Schoolg while still others have fallen into the Medical Department. We have picked up a few others on the road-disreputable specimens like Walter fs log Singer and Bob Pilling-and although we cannot sing that classic ditty, The Gang's All Here, we are not discouraged, and feel that due credit should be given to those who have successfully withstood the assaults of a ghastly array of profs armed with text-books, outlines, quizzes, examinations and little summaries. , Baccalaureatus in Artibus Liberalibus l Yes, the day is at hand when that hard earned degree will be conferred upon some of us. It fills my heart with sorrow to think that after all their hard work Bee Hemphill and Redsw Humphreys wonlt get A. B.'s, but you see Greek is a requisite for this degree, and despite their scholarly attainments no one would suspect Reds or Bee of studying Greek. How then does it happen that a large A. figures after their names in the catalogue? Well, the authorities thought it was not right to deprive a man like Redsl' from getting a liberal education, especially when he was willing to work, and so various courses in Arts and Science were devised leading up to the degree of B. S., which is variously interpreted, according to the department from which the interpreter comes. Early in the fall of ,QS we and the Faculty discovered that a most remarkable aggregation ofscholars had entered the Arts Department. Abrahams led the class-undoubtedly-but as it is not our intention to record the crimes and follies of that misguided individual we will do as he occasionally did, pass. Unfortu- nately 'lTex did not always pursue this policy with respect to his college work. The Faculty called his last bluff, and-Yes Tex led the class, although Fred Clark was always a man of high standing, six feet or more in his stocking feet, and we had scholars of all grades beginning with Tex and Allen Bodine, and running through the various stages of Cardezas, Hodges, Hemphills, Longwells, etc., all the way down to Henry Walter jones, Oley Paul, and Horace Stern. There was nobility among us in the personages of Count Colahan, Bart Cramj, and him who is styled by some the Duke of Philadelphia, although it is our opinion that he is only the Prince of Wales. There were Thespians such as Shelly. There was that noble galaxy of stars containing such men as Adolph Borie, Trenchard Newbold, and Harry Dillard. Last, but not least, there were the Twelve Apostles, chief of whom was Tom l' Donaldson, that most versatile and ingenious of mortals who can do anything you tell him to do, and everything you don't. To enumerate and describe all of our celebrities were an endless task. Sufficient is it to say that we had such an array of talent as has rarely been equaled even at Gilmore's Auditorium or the Trocadero. It was a touching sight to see some of the fellows at work. Adolph Borie would sit in Professor Thrope's room and draw faces divinely beautiful for a full hour, his inspiration coming from the Professor's lectures on the Constitution. Harry Hodge and Billy Miiller sat together in Pop Eastonls room and took most elaborate notes, written in a curious cipher the prevailing characters of which were X and O. IIO Douhtless they considered that half ofwhat Pop said was nothing, and that the other half was made up of unknown quantities. Harry always read l1is Lysias from a manuscript which was generally supposed to be the original codex, until one day Harry inadvertently closed the book and on the cover were engraved the Words Brinton, '9S. Even at this early date Frank G. Bossert manifested that tendency to patronize the professors which has since given rise to the opinion held by many that he is really the source from which their lectures are obtained. Clarance Chester, too, was inclined to patronize the profs, but just when the latter thought that they had secured his patronage, Chester basely deserted them to become a chorus girl in the Mask andfW'ig. ' How fearfully and wonderfully made are examination papers, and how fearfully and wonderfully are the questions thereon answered I lt is therefore not surprising that Horace Stern and Henry Walter jones have pulled distinctions in their examinations, for they have answered all questions wonderfully, whereas men like Sam Dunn, Louis Cardeza and Harry Hodge answered their questions fearfully. But right here I would like to say a few words in defence of the latter class. These men did not turn in poor papers out of any disregard for, or from any ill feeling toward, the professors, their motive, on the other hand, was pure unselfishness and a desire that the greatest number might be benefited--what Dr. Fullerton calls altruism. They knew that as the class of ,QQ was an unusually large one the professors were put to a severe strain, and that for the same reason the class was not getting as much good from lectures and recitations as it would if the class were smaller, and therefore they deliberately sacrificed themselves to what they thought was their duty, and Hunked. Speaking of examinations, K' Randy H Faries caused great indignation Freshman year by not exempt- ing the whole class. During the first term he gave ns that well-known course of autobiographical lectures with no examination, but in the second term he used a text book, and, as there were at least a hundred of us in the class, it is needless to say that nobody recited more than once, and some never recited at all. So when it was announced that only about half the class had been exempted from the final I' ex, there was Wrath. Jacobs went to the Doctor and insisted on being exempted because he had not been called upon to recite during the term, while Reds Humphreys, who was exempted, made a bee-line for the door, fearing that a mistake had been made in his case, as he had not as yet procured the text book. Additional wrath was aroused when it was learned that Randy had not given D's to all the men who took the examination, but that some few had been given the low mark of G. Sophomore year was marked by several notable events. One ofthese was an anarchistic attempt to blow up the john Harrison Laboratory of Chemistry. Seipt and a bottle of sodium were the conspirators, and the f h III attempt proved unsuccessful merely because the plot was put into operation before it was fully matured. Krupps and several others made similar attempts during the year, but they too proved unsuccessful owing to the prompt interference of the police, z'. e., Drs. Shinn and Moyer. Another important event of the year was the appearance in our midst of Robert Emmett Dillon, stump speaker, ward politician, moral reformer, and W. C. T. U. worker. Many a time have we stood and gazed in astonishment and admiration at Dillon, as he gave us the latest news, or straight tips, from ward head- quarters. Nevertheless we did occasionally tear ourselves away from Dillon to attend an hour. Most of ns Went to Jackson, who, early in the term, fell upon Jacobs and tore him limb from limb because he showed an unfamiliarity with one of jacksoifs pet rules which the class had not yet learned. Later in the year Rawle Brown also became a victim of jacksonls wrath because a certain translation of his was to be found neither in the notes nor the lexicon. 'A Artie Goodspeed and Gibbons tried to make our lives miserable and would have succeeded had it not been for Bates, Whitcomb, and Homer Smith, who did everything in their power to make us comfortable and happy. The Arts course is divided into two distinct parts, the iirst concluding with the Bnal examinations Sophomore year, and the second beginning with the opening of college Junior year. The intervening summer is intended for meditation and the electing of courses for Junior year. Thirteen courses were submitted to us for consideration, the subjects printed in heavy type fbeingj those which give to each group its distinctive character!! Owing to the thoroughness of our course in Latin with Gibbons only a few of us stuck to the classics. Bossert headed a delegation of three would-be philosophers, one of whom elected this course because he was a Wise man, another section left for the Big while the larger portion ofthe class elected courses in which either English or History was a maj or. Those who showed a discerning intellect elected English, not, however, because it was a cinch H course as Jones and Paul thought, but men like Reds Humphreys, Charlie Harrison, Bee Hemphill, and Tom Peirce-who is a scholar- Pop Easton says so,-were moved by nobler motives. They were all desirous of becoming poets. Will any of us ever forget that divine poem of Reds' on the Mystery of Human Life, or Charlie's sonnet which sold for three dollars, actually- Charlie paid the three dollars himself. Homer Smith was responsible for these effusions and was in fact the feature of the English course. Unfortunately, however, Homer's life was not an easy one, we couldn't all write poetry like Redsj' and so after laboring vainly with Mitchell, .Tones and Paul for a whole year, Homer Hnally gave up in despair and fled to Honolulu. This year, too, began our course in little summaries with McMaster, and we soon discovered that of making many papers for the Department of American History there is no end. We also discovered that II2 there are two ways of making these papers, one being to write themg the other to compose them. Both methods were employed by us, and on the whole our papers were very good-that was because those of Stern and a few other conscientious men in the class were goody the rest were very similar. Ben Frankland was too lazy even to write his. His plan was to get hold of a good paper and have his small brother run it off- on the typewriter. Walter Singer, on the other hand, waited till the end of the term and then lugged in a huge pile of old papers, historical and otherwise, principally English and rejected Red cmd Bfzze manuscripts, and pulled a distinction. R' Mac smiled twice and a halfa time junior year, the half coming when he told Magee that he talked likeaa monthly calendar. Fullerton took us in hand this year and made monkeys of us whenever the spirit moved him, the rest ,of the time he taught Logic and Ethics. So successful was he in both, that Senior year found a number of us trying to make a philosopher out of Newbold. How well we have succeeded it remains to be seen, although at the time of writing Bossert and Charlie Harrison are doing nobly. Professor Schelling's readings from the Elizabethan Drama always attracted large audiences. Arthur Spencer, Van Kirk, and Francine, always sat in the bald-headed row, while a small delegation from the Twelve Apostles was occa- sionally to be found in the gallery. We have picked up much valuable information in our two years' course in Anglo-Saxon with Easton. Among many other things we have learned what the price of beer was in olden times, the true nature of the Salvation Army, how many times Pop has been shot in the woods, and that Tom Peirce is a scholar, and Redsl' Humphreys is not. This last piece of information came to us very much in the nature ofa surprise, as we had always considered Reds a scholar and Tom a bluffer. But what is the object of the Arts course? It is not to make a man learned, in the ordinarily accepted meaning of the term. It is to teach him that knowledge is the knowing that we cannot know. And so, having at last acquired this knowledge, we are ready to go forth into the world, fully agreeing with him who says: All things I thought I knew g but now confess The more I know I know, I know the less. 113 ,.., The Wartin Skule hez sort uv growed jest how, no one kin tell.

Since that time we have all learned to admire, or say We admire, that chimney 5 for was it not designed by the great Spmzgler, who dwells in the red brick structure, and there awaits unsuspecting bunches of students that he may have an opportunity to ask them if they have gotten the story straight ? In this unlovely building we became acquainted with each other, and incidentally with several of the sub c0!07zeZs, and some hours each week of hard work. The l'sub-colo- nels, it should be explained, are the many and sundry lesser saints attached to the person of the Lord High COLONEL CD H. W. S-a-g-e-r, U. S. N., and are all summoned into the august presence by the appropriate blast on an old boatswain's whistle. john, the 'nrst ---' favorite of the great master, appears, like the genius of some Eastern romance, at two long, I23 shrill blasts of the aforementioned whistle and receives the appropriate commands from the COLONEL. The other myrmidons are summoned as occasion arises and the day's work is begun in earnest. So .great is John's standing in the affections of the Professor that it is whispered that he even aspires to the some-time ownership of the bicycle, that very same wheel that has been well known for generations Ccollege generationsj, and, from the fact of its still being sound, who knows but what it may continue for all time to be one of the appurtenances of the department. Last year when the Professor, fired by a noble burst of patriotism, volunteered his services-as ballast on an old iron washtub surmounted by two cracker boxes-to his government, john feared, yet hoped, that the bicycle would at last become his own. However, a wise Providence ruled otherwise, and the Professor returned, replete with fresh yarns of the deep, to resume possession of the iron steed and also of the active duties of the department. So much for our surroundings, and now to the task of describing occurrences which have lent color to our four years' work. All went smoothly as possible. Elliot, Pierce, cl al., delivered their weekly lectures in Descriptive Geometry, attendance upon which cost us each but our lunch, for the lecturers gave us the course gratis. Due to their benign influence we prospered mightily in the subject and, as a consequence, in january H. W. S. entirely overlooked giving us an examination in this branch. The hrst casualty of any importance to the Engineering Section at large-for we must not so consider Pierce's cut hand and the subsequent flirtations with the nurses at the hospital-occurred to Hilborn one day on his way between home and college. He fell and skinned his face upon the ice which had formed over what must have been a puddle of some hirsute tonic in a solution of cochineal, for he straightway grew and thenceforth carried, even to the beginning of Senior year, a beautiful set of violently red whiskers. Yet withal 4' Hilly profited thereby, for, in spite of the gibes of the majority, was he not first favorite with Miss H-gs, in Schwatt's class? Ninety-nine proved so numerous in the shops that the authorities decided that they must needs build new ones, and so they inaugurated that extensive change. Wa' condescended to allow common bricklayers and carpenters to do the work of actual building, but when it came to moving the shafting, etc., we natur- ally ifzszkfed upon our right to do the work, and so donned our overalls and got at it. The removing of belts and such other heavy jobs naturally fell to the lot of big men like Kerr, Haines and Biddle, while the com- paratively easy CPD task of removing the ceiling fixtures and shafting made poor 'White Mice W'illiamson and others work as hard as any of them. jones actually wore himself to a shadow, and as a consequence is to this day nothing but skin and bone. I24 Rogers, K' Chick Cantlin and Bunch Initials W. H. C. Ramsey were the athletes of the class, but the first named was the only one of them whose athletic prowess gave Schwatt any anxiety-this may have been due to the fact that rowing is allied to water. Chick, alias Cupid, distinguished himself by attending fire sales and by skill in the game of baseball, and in connection with the latter was wont, during games on Franklin Field, to sit upon the players' bench so as to show his Varsity P H to the admiring ladies. Bunch Initials also went in for baseball and annually figured among 'I Penn's promising baseball material in the daily papers, sometimes as near to the opening of the season as the middle of February. Lober, in junior year, got into the bad habit of going to the theatre whenever Dan Daly happened to be in town, and of afterward giving us such tid-bits of that comedian's dialogue as was appropriate to the occasion. Poor class! The Mechanicals got together in this year and formed the 'K Bill Gang, and a lazy, uproarious set of loafers they were, except in the Electrical Laboratory and Draughting Room, when they were repeatedly advised by Messrs, Waldo and Picolet not to work so hard. K' Pat, especially, was asked several times by the latter, Mr. Patterson, do you never get tired of loaiing ? To the which Fritz, believing that a civil question demanded an answer, would reply, No, sir, and the class would invariably smile and iiy. During the summer of '98 Sid l' Hilborn's whiskers were lost or stolen and so he was obliged to come back to us without this one adornment CPD which differentiated him from the rest of mankind. This loss brings to mind the story of an adventure in which Hilly took a leading part. 'Way back in Sopho- more year, when on his way to his locker, having finished his day's work QD in the shops, he was set upon by a Vigilance Committee of Ninety-eight men and taken to the little room back of the Gym, where he was tried by drumhead court- martial and condemned to forfeit his whiskers. This dire sentence was about being carried out when several of I-Iilly's heroic, but over zealous, classmates burst i11to the room and rescued him from his tormentors. Prominent among the members of this Rescue League were Brown and Elliot. Alas, that two such notedly brilliant men should thus fall into error so grave!! Hagy's grief at the ultimate loss of I-Iilly's whiskers was so intense that he immediately set about draping his face in black, and now he is the PROUD possessor of a set of beautiful C? ? pkylg .... gk ,ri l I ? ?j black whiskers of his own. Whiskers and Lawrie are doing well. Isaac Joachim Schwatt, of die Uni-VER-sity of Penn-sil-vania, was the first one to discover our dear Lord CG. A. of that ilkj. One of the most high-minded of the crowd is Day, an expert on the subject of kites and a lecturer on the topic before such a learned body as the Franklin Institute. The lady- killer of the class is our Southern colleague, who comes from the banks of the broad Mississippi, a true son ,.- 125 of the old Cavaliers, Henry Craft Houck. Crafty with his love affairs, for we never discovered that he had a heart till late in the course. Our one aspirant to histrionic fame is Truitt, surnamed Grandpa, at one time Ballet Girl, Fisherman, Farmer and OARSMAN. Those noted for their weight are Calver and Wright, the former for being the only man in the department who can stand on nearly equal terms with the Colonel, and the latter for his poverty of avoirdupois. Our heroes who felt called upon by their country in her hour of need were Rogers and Zimmerman, who went to Porto Rico with the City Troop, and Rey- nolds, a high private in the First Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry. Two names mar the fair fame of our roll-call, the one a mere SPECK the other a nondescript called GROVER, alias Sherry, a cross between Chemist and Engineer, a jack of all trades, but master, etc., and yet withal a line fellow. But, Wl1at's in a name ? Take Carl C. Huch, for example, whose cog- nornen inspired our beautiful slogan. Come, Ninety-nine Engineers, together for the last time let usjoin our voices and give it long and strong. Now! One! Two! Three! 'K Osky-huchik-huch! Whisky-huch-huch! Little-huch-hueh! Huckleberry-huch !-huch! ,Q Huch pronounced 4. Huckiy, Penn-syl-vania-huch--huch! 126 I EERING S H OP Easton got around it by saying Mithter D. X Eth Genn-dle and H Mithter Thi M. Kenn-dal 3 X but it was a mistake to have two fellows with names S' so much alike in the same class and department. We suspected this as we copied the roster in the Duke's room, on the first day, and were sure of it a little later. A lot of us were assembled in Doc Ohley's quiz. The Doctor was evidently solilo- quizing in some language midway between English and German, when he said: Mr. Gandalf' Two Freshmen quickly arose. One was lean, long, and light headed, while the other was quite his opposite, except for the leanness. The two gazed at each other, then sat down. Ohley looked troubled, but he consulted his paper and remarked: I vant Gandalf' with a strong accent on the dal. The long one arose, sat down, and the short one did the same. The Doctor glared at each in turn. You gant oonderstandt nie l Vell, I sink Nachur has neglected you bose severely? ' . K' 127 But to return to the Duke's room. Among its occupants was a little bluereyed, red-headed fellow with a chuckle. At least we thought it was a chuckle until we later discovered that it was the thought of his dinner that made Jake chirrup. Then there was Bozf' Boz wore patent leather shoes, stood live feet ten, and weighed igo pounds. He had sleepy, or shall we say dreamy, eyes. Of Sail? this he convinced us in our Senior year when he slept all through a lecture on Railroad Economics, and fifteen minutes beyond. It was an inspiring sight to see Charlie with his feet on the back of the chair in front of him, sinking, slowly sinking, not contin- ffikt' Qty? i mt r 1, U uonsly, but by little jerks and jerklels, until his knees were much higher than his 'M , q t T f ll ii I t I i MWWAV head. Quietly we tiptoed out of the rootn, and- on he slept until with an indignant f snort he awoke to rind himself a centre of attraction. W Q A . ' Another important personage was Sain, concerning whom we need only say ,., . .,W, -- ' that he was one of those fellows whom the girls like. All who later loaned him l ul thumb tacks, sponge rubbers, etc., know that he did not believe in reciprocity. But in ' 5 r dll' ' ' one thing he waived principle and so-well, Sam liked the girls. Johnny, too, ,QR Z X was present in all the vigor of his athletic manhood, and wearing his most important KX l t ' T - W 'P 5' keep your distance air. There were a few others, but they were destined soon to l , 1 . ,mga eave us. On our first roster appeared this notice: Saturday, 9-I, Surveying Practice, and accordingly we assembled in a little room in the basement to receive our introduction to Walter Loring Webb, C. E., Assoc. M. Am. Soc. C. E., Assistant Professor of Civil Engineering in the University of Pennsylvaniag or just 'K VVillie. This gentleman had the most distinctive style of conversation any of us had ever listened to. Gestnres, appropriate and inappropriate, accompanied every sentence, nearly every one of which was divided into five parts by the phrases uso that, or better, or still better, and nevertheless. After a short talk Willie gave us chains and pins and directed us to measure certain distances over a lot of ground covered with thorn bushes, as he probably wanted to have the best laugh on his side. The same afternoon, so it is said, Hjakel' went hottie and opened communication with the government to know if they wanted anything in the way of base line measuring done. Two great feats were accomplished during our Park survey. jake got on the outside of his lunch and lived to tell the tale. johnny 'l played against Harvard and became a Sophomore. At the end of our second year we went to Frenchtown for our railroad survey. Of course Sam captivated Jennie, but it was left for the diplomatic Jaken to ensnare the real prize, Daisy Snapjar. Jake 128 11ever suffered for want of edibles except when .love .grew cold, and at such times he could obtain only four plates of strawberries at a meal. Little events sometimes serve great purposes and Professor Webb's wrath revealed J'ohnny's oratorical power. Willie could not sleep on a bed ten feet high, and as that was the elevation ofthe top mattress he was filled with righteous indignation. But righteous indignation could not hold out against Johnny's speech. A rupture was prevented, a board of arbitration appointed and a mattress removed all by this tremendous effort. Modesty has ever been our policy, but we felt it due to Old Penn on the eve of our departure to let the people of Frenchtown know what a power was even so small a fraction of our alma mater. Accordingly, about 10.30 p. m., Frenchtown time, or 2 a. m. anywhere else, we paraded the town and indulged in various vocal exercises. Can you imagine what this means? Here where all was quiet as Frenchtown, there suddenly rang out hoarse Hoorahs followed by the sprightly Pennsylvania Girl, which was in turn succeeded by the impressive Red and Blue. It will seem perfectly in accordance with their unprogressiveness when I tell you that the people of Frenchtown did not appreciate this. Some of them even wished to resent it. The male population began to rise and collect at corners, and after we had given adefiant Hoorah on the hotel steps, we were surrounded. A courageous little constable, unarmed save with a club, a blackjack, two revolvers, and two pockets full of handcuffs, and unbacked save by thirty or forty men, then approached us. He rather forcibly expressed it as his opinion that though our knowledge might be extensive, still, it had its limits. The people of Frenchtown, , 'jill F3 ,- . lx 'W Qw z ilw lf . l f E . if fl X6 represented by himself, were in possession of some of the little remaining information which we lacked. He intimated that it was quite within his ability and almost within his desire to impart a portion of this information to us. As the tuition for the course was 53 per night, we politely declined, rightly guessing that next year we might be able to borrow the text book from IQOO and thereby avoid all trouble and expense. The third year brought us into contact with that learned man the Duke It took us one week to get on to his delivery and attain the proper degree of sobriety when in his presence. This was unfortunate, for in one week irst impressions are formed, and he must have thought us a remarkably dull lot because we could not answer questions which we did not understand. He taught us of the Principle of Least Work, and we quickly applied it. Briefly stated it is this: ff- 129 If by an amount of work X you can understand a subject and procure a mark P, is it Worth 2X work to understand the whole history of development of the subject and receive a mark P -I- A P? Answer, no. This explains why we did not all have Dis, for the folly of such a course must be apparent.

And now, Civils, that were going to leave, let us counsel you to have no fear for its safety, While that misrepresented man the Duke remains at the head of your department. - I-v l l:: if f -9 le ' fe f i c---eff fr i - 'MW X 5' v- ' ,- rv ' 'lf-A f . . -' 1. ,Fl V Q 'ily 4-'42 . ., , 454, Q Q Q- .

Schwatt we commenced our college career. The lan- guage startled us somewhat and we feared that our young lives would be burdens under this awful man, but we soon learned how to take his broken English outbursts, and by the middle of the iirst term we had discovered that Schwatt was not the terror that we had thought him-he told us so himself. Our work seemed to centre in Schwatty's room. Under him we learned about probability and Upeerf' teeorems and teeatres, and that the demonstration of certain proofs were Hpeautiful! peautiful! but that it was throwing pearls pefore schvine to show them to us. We were a motley crew though, there is no doubt of it. Alphabetically, Poker Chip Andrews headed the list. I-Ie should rejoice in his name, for he would never have headed it in any other way. Dutch', I-Iagenlocher, inventor, medium and mesmeristg O,Reilly and his friend, Rose, Reakirt, the foolf' Rulon, the board rubber, Little Lee and his big schveaterf' the inseparable Landis and Ken- nedyg Rushlaubf' alias Ruegenberg, Workman, with the elephant tread, Charlie Harrison, sweet-voiced Finley and Deas Sinkler, the dig, helped to compose this brilliant aggregation. We were a large class and had great hopes, but the mid-years came and the carnage was frightful. Those exam. reports, as hung up in the hall by Pomp, will be long remembered. The Dean had used more red ink than black, and many were reported missing at the next roll-call. ' Professor Francis Newton Thorpe tried to instill a small amount of constitutional history into our weak nodd1es this year. We fear that we did not make the most of our opportunities in this direction, but we could not help appreciating the man. In the class rooms of some instructors one feels the presence of a genius, but he was more. The University has sustained losses in the past four years, but none greater than when Professor Thorpe resigned his chair. In our Sophomore year we were dosed with a course in composition, and handed in original essays and stories copied verbatim out of old magazines. I-Iow badly we fooled Quinn and Child will probably never be known. At any rate, they passed us, so we were happy, but it is strongly suspected that in doing '45 131 so they winked one eye and kept the other shut. We also wrote criticisms on the works of standard authors. Dickens, Scott, Hawthorne and the rest of them must have squirmed in their graves as we ripped and tore to pieces, raved at and condemned the nnest passages they ever wrote. Oh, we were great on Zzffevfaloor, we were. Nothin' was too good for us. We did many other wise and foolish things in those two terms, but, as Professor Schelling predicted, the next year we became Juniors and our technical work began. He warned us against choosing the line of least resistance. We divided according to our tastes and inclinations, into civil or chemical or mechanical engineering. Since that time not one of us has had any cause to fear that he was breaking Schellingls commandment. We have been on the jump for two years now, and as the catalogue will show, our mental athletics continue for one more. No, the currents of our courses are not conducted on silver wires. Probably few college classes lose a larger percentage of members during four years than has this one. Thirty -one strong we started out and only six remain. Some were lost through voluntary changes in course, too many by reason of the red ink. At one time we were strong athletically, but it became known that for athletes an easier berth would be found in certain other directions, and in consequence some decided that they were better fitted to study financiering than engineering. Six of us still hang on by the teeth. Max Ruegenberg can row, play football and baseball, swim, hit a lager, skate, ride a bicycle, and do many other wonderful and interesting things. His oliice hours are on Spring Garden Street, between Twenty-fifth and Twenty-second, in the morning, the only trouble being in that he cannot always be seen alone. Bob Workmaii is generally conceded to be just what his name implies, but it is understood that he derives great enjoyment from theatres, girls, and long tramps, and can be easily persuaded to take in any of these on shortest notice. Luccas, my dear, is indeed a fine fellow, but if you suggest that he needs a shave he will tell you how much longer you have needed one. Percy Baker will be a great man some day if greatness is to be found underground, for he knows how to dig. Matt 'l Kennedy will make an excellent civil engineer, for politeness and polish are his strong points. He is, too, a Hnished baseball player, but on Franklin Field they don't know a good thing when they see it. Last and least, Little U Lee needs merely to be mentioned, as he is too young and frivolous to have further said of him than that he is a hard worker, and his chief pastime is found in the designing of steam engines. I32 if Wifvll STS URING the summer of 1895, Dr. Edgar F. Smith had a very perplexing question to solve, and the reputation , of the John Harrison Laboratory of Chemistry was at stake. The question was to ind a good class of stu- dents who would be willing to cross the threshold of Chemistry and ffli 'ffl attempt to discover either the philosopher's stone or the elixir of life, and incidentally both. Fortunately, however, the matriculates in ?' the Freshman class of that year were a pretty smooth crowd, and from among them the doctor picked some ten or tifteen whom he thought could stand chemistry. We were a sorry-looking crowd, but happily turned out to be students, workers and jokers, and the reputation of the laboratory was saved. This aggregation of would-be chemists consisted of representatives of the public high schools of Philadelphia, two kids from Germantown-one of whom turned out to be a philosopher and the other a politician CPD-a pick-up from the old Rugby Academy, and one -Voynow-from Russia, who made everything himself. The Freshman year passed quietly enough with one, single, sad exception. Poor Dr. Ohley, recognizing the ability of the class, took a silent farewell and departed, no one knowing whither. His going left a big hole in the lab, which Dr. Moyer was left alone to ill, but found himself unequal to the task. It was pitiful to see him walking the door of the lab in deep thought-at the time we thought that matrimony was worrying him, but now we know that we were premature. How- ever, Dr. Shinn, who was called from the junior lab to the Freshman, a seemingly paradoxical advance- ment, came to his assistance, and all was well. T33 Pairing off now became the fad and a lucky thing it was for some. Fernberger took Tunnell under his wing, Shengle took Foster, and Foster, in turn, took Shengle, and Dailey and Withrow, alias Damon and Pythias, now religious maniacs and heretics, went off by themselves and made iodoform for the rest of the term. Clarke, the funny old man, soon started his fooling, while Hartwell, a character study, looked on in what we thought at that time was amazement, but later found was part of Hartwell himself. Sophomore year our number was augmented by Alcie, alias State, an oif-shoot from State College, the freshest of the fresh, Dougherty, commonly known as Doc, an outcrop of the Med, now marriedg and Lieberman, a waste product of a soap factory. They were soon assimilated, however, and in various hard fought water-bottle lights, chemical football games, and , ,. :NV Q jaw-working contests on theological subjects, and the great political f Z ,f Q 6 .ii XX issue of Free Silver, proved themselves to be worthy of our number. M ' Up to this time Dailey and Withrow had kept their pet subjects to I f -' N Y themselves, and, fortunately for them, we were ignorant of what the 4 1 lk T! future had in store for us, so they lived to complete the course. ID, Doc was such an enthusiastic follower of Calvin that when he :lf couldn't get an audience to listen to his hysterical arguments he would - rl seize a huge sandwich and give himself up to thinking about the good I of fasting. Tunnell, like a cock in the morning, burst forth in all his ' . f' glory this year, fiapped his wings, and imagined himself absolute mon- arch, but happily for us and disastrously for him, there was a mightier man than he in the lab, a certain Foster, who once, when assaulted, rose up in arms and defended himself, and then there was weeping and gnashing of teeth, and silence reigned for a time. At Christmas we decided to have a feast, so delegates were dispatched for cider and cheese. The juniors, after being tied in their room until we had our provender safe, oifered iight, were beaten off with Tag's help, and, in turn, were compelled to hoist their lunch to the lab by ropes in order to keep it out of our clutches. Dr. Smith quieted our spirits at the mid-years by iiunking several of us, so that wewere satisfied to amuse ourselves by playing shuffle-boards, until one day, Tag put an end even to that because he was in a bad humor, some one having decorated his desk with a lovely jardiniere-ask him about it. This was Tag's first year, so if he made any mistakes they were excusable, and we have nothing to say of him except praise, and of that very little. He gave promise of becoming a good instructor in time. 134 Junior year found ten Hale, Harty H and Funny chemists Tunnelling Dailey for their coveted B. S. in chemistry, but still managing to sandwich in a little fun. This year we learned from Dr. Brown: Indeed, I might say, that generally speaking, on the whole, etc. Nine hours straight of mineralogy and metallurgy would have been almost too much if we hadn't had blowpiping with the same gentleman. To blowpiping we would go late and leave early, and spend the interim in smearing ourselves with lard oil, asking damphool questions, and making weird guesses about minerals, to which the Doctor would answer: Indeed, What makes you think so, and You've got another guess. ' is l Kffoillff E X ,, O Q Obief' sweet creature, was entrusted with guiding our youthful minds through ' Technical Chemistry. By means of lectures delivered while sound asleep, and numer- W C5 f ous magic lantern shows, K' Obie succeeded in showing us how much he didn't know. i - l - I-Ie also gave practical exhibitions of this knowledge during our trips, on some of which X N Z ff , E 1 X . x vii, J' it was like a comedy to see Pop H and Doc, but when we went through the brew- ZW ! tl Ill! l , X ery, it almost became a tragedy. Dr. Oberholtzer left us as quietly and suddenly as f' , Dr. Ohleyg and again, like a bad penny, Dr. Shinn showed up and continued giving us Waguer's and Sadtler's Technicals in hourly readings. Then there were those happy-go-lucky afternoons that we spent around warm furnaces, assaying. But fire, be it never so hot, could not make us languidg on the contrary, it seemed to incite us to even greater exertions. Shinny-no disrespect to the Dr. intended-hop-scotch, baseball, and last, but not least, football, all contributed to our amusement. One never-to-be-forgotten i W day the climax was reached. Funny's team was slowly but surely pushing the ball- ,f a crucible-toward Iack's goal. Third down, one yard to gain, a terriiic rush through centre, cries of Push it over, a complex mixture of arms and legs-when Dr. Smith entered. That was suflicient, he never needed to give us one of his quiet half-hour talks. 7. i ' Thus the days passed until we entered the abode of multifarious, never-ending- , till' perfumes, the organic lab. There many things were done that Dr. Smith never ' - dreamed of and Dr. Fleck never inquired about. So without a care we proceeded on our x l l journey till Indian summer came, when, on the proposal of the T. A. B. and A. P. A. I I members, a keg of cider was bought, and at the expense of life and limb, safely lodged on a All J . the roof. Charlie Clarke,'havirxg read somewhere of the hair-growing properties of gfyf jl cider, drank more than his share, and in a few weeks a down, a soft, downy down, K 135 appeared on his upper lip, and as the influence of this world reached it, it waxed stronger and became an apology for a hair lip.

There were twenty ive in all Cnot counting Bakerj, and the bland smile of Popsy grew blander as there arose before him visions of the many quizzes in the Orders that he would be able to give, and of the realization of the ambition of his life in being able to demonstrate them by the block system, and also of being able at last to introduce the card-board-match-stick glue system of architectural construction. At hrst, of course, each one thought he knew it all, but when the chief adviser of the department, Pilcher, came around one day and found Thomas using his T-square upside down, there was one at least who realized that there were some things yet to be learned. After a few such lessons we realized that we were not so great as we thought we were, although ' ' ' ' one to understand that it was apparent from the very outset that Baker was not of this opinion, he giving every he was the only thing that ever happened, and we have long since learned that, in his class, he was. 137 X gwc During the first year the course was divided into two branches, The Orders, when Popsyl' had charge of the class, and K' The Disorders, when he had not. We shall never forget the series of quizzes that he conducted in the Orders when we were confronted by such questions as this: If the dentils in the Denticular Doric Order are one-sixth of a module on centres, how high is the lower row of acanthus leaves on the Corinthian capital? How minutely did our pre- 'Li-T if ' ,W - ceptor describe the details of each Order, even to the placing of the margin-line , - E- -gg Qgg inches from the edge of the sheet, and how vigilantly did he hunt for some i . ' trivial mistake on our papers, so that he could decorate them with his much- r -N .f beloved blue pencil and it was not uncommon to see such notes as these scrawled I across the sheet: G-Cyinatium spelled incorrectly, P-Left out height of 'X Q entasisf' N-Wrong-scale-Re-quiz Saturday, ro a. m. We soon concluded Q ' that Mr. Viffnola could not lecture half as well about his Orders as could our very D erudite Popsy-provided, of course, he had his tracing cloth pony with him. Our course in Disorder was generally under the supervision of Lewis Frederick Pilcher, Ph. B., B. S. A., H. P., Cwhich stands for Hamlin's Protegej, and his melodic voice was often heard threatening from the door of his greenhouse at the rear of the room, Now if I catch that man who is whistling it will cost him a week. Our Huent friend Hirsh one day informed Pilcher that he wouldntt whistle for only one week, Give me a couple, said he, and I will whistlef, After the mid-years our ranks were somewhat thinned, but those who remained plodded on under the Popsinian rule by the Pilcherian method, learning how to run Indiar-ink washes, and to wash them out again, learning stenography under Pilcher and incidentally picking up some facts about Architectural History, until June, when we separated for our first college vacation. On reassembling next fall as Sophomores QCorbin, however, reassembled as a Freshman, having become so attached to Pilcher socially and financially that he could not leave himj the first thing to be considered was our summer sketches. Walker had evidently traveled extensively during the summer, for he brought back some vivid and realistic sketches of the Parthenon, the Coliseum and various other views from the old world and the new. It was insiuuated by some that he got them from photographs, but nevertheless he was awarded second mention-owing doubtless to his pull with the judge of the competition. Preston captured iirst mention with some clever sketches, including a bird's-eye view of the City Hall tower. Ruhe seemed to think it did not matter who did the sketches so long as they were done. So he employed a friend in Allentown to do his-however, he subsequently did the required number himself. During this year we first met Fred. Mann in his famous course in Rendering. He used to translate his lectures on the subject 138 from the French, but the great number of interpolated uh's when he was stuck for a word rendered the lecture so slow that most of us went to sleep, and, although we learned how to run a wash of two-thirds transparency with one bmshfuls of color, nevertheless we were glad when his course changed to Design and we were allowed to put down our own architectural ideas and conceptions. We liked Design, but no matter how good the rest of our designs were Siegel's always received first mention, probably because Fred. Mann comprised the jury of award. It was during this year that nicknames began to attach themselves to various members of the class. Hirsh had been known as Scab ever since the trolley strike of the previous year, when he used the word to mark any one who worked over hours, and, like the proverbial bad penny, the name came back to the owner, and by it was Hirsh thereafter known. Osterhout was called 'K-lack, Bodine, from his solemn countenance was known as Senator, Morgan revived one of his old nicknames, Doe, Koch was furnished with the name Jamie, why, no one knows, and Walker was dubbed Cap, from his enthusiasm for baseball and his frequent assertions about organizing a ball team and weeding out candidates from the Architectural Class. The others were called by their abbreviated names or surnames, except Siegel, to whom we did not know what name to give until finally, after experimenting with several, such as Venus, Reginald, etc., we finally decided on Bill because it was easy, and since then he has been known by that appellation. Baker did not get a nickname, but he had to be called down, nevertheless, about a half a dozen times daily. We had Millard this year in Shades and Shadows and Perspective, and Ruhe and Thomas were inveigled into spoiling their 450 triangles to make 0 triangles for julian to use. It was in C this subject that we Hrst heard of Dab Blair, the ' shark from Virginia, who made nothing f but D's in Millard's work. Dab entered the year after we did, but he became fascinated with our class and skipped a year by pulling the Faculty's leg with his A. M. from Virginia and joined us. The next year was an eventful year, both with the United States and with our class. Charlie,' Clevenger is recorded as having jestingly said that year, that while the United States was having trouble with foreign powers, all our trouble was with Warren Powers. This 5 f was undoubtedly true, for Popsy H by this time had begun to realize that our class did not come from a deaf and dumb asylum and his frequent visits and consequent lectures in our room were thoroughly enjoyed. According to Popsy We enjoyed the distinction of being the most unruly class that had ever been in the Department, and evidently we were proud of it. Sometimes Freddie Mann was delegated to call us down, but he always lost his nerve, and on one occasion he is reported as having said: I'll have to stop you to ask whistling, much to our amusement and his own discomliture. ' C- C fn 139 E9 After we had begun night-work we decided that we wanted something to relieve the tedium of our work, so we procured a graphophone and many were the concerts we had during lunch hours and evenings. Scab Hirsh was chief engineer of the box, as we soon learned to call it, and made it his favorite plaything. There weie one or two places on the cylinders with which the graphophone had trouble, and during the announcement ofa piece we were accustomed to hear Q Played by the United States Marine Band-Band-Band Band-Band, etc., etc., ad Z.7mllZ'f?l77Z, until Scab had to shutoff steam and restart the machine. However I ' we were destined to be bereaved. One night the box disappeared, and from . - H Herb Hall's locker too, Herb told us a pitiful tale the next morning, and we had to swallow it as bt-st we could for Hall was an athlete, having won a Varsity a P with the swamped crew at Poughkeepsie, and as he was stronger than any f one of us, we did not presume to tell him where we thought it had gone. Never- ' theless Herb became an adept at whistling Under the Double Eagle -the A graphophonels most frequently played piece. After the mid-years our thirteen proved unlucky and Jack Osterhout and the Scab were compelled by force of circumstances to take leave of us. However, our hilarity still continued to be so disturbing to Popsy's qnizzesl' that he requested us to appoint a vigilance committee to be responsible for the order of the class. W'e appointed Morgan, Ruhe and Bodine. Morgan and Ruhe were never present and Bc-dine couldn't vote without a quorum, so the committee did not gig report our disorder. The favorite mode of punishment of the class for an individual was the tank, and very naturally Baker, on account of his obstreperousness, was the favorite candidate for the tank. Once a week the class, or a part of them, i went over to 4' Dave Bugey's laboratory of Hygiene and heard Dave describe parts of an experiment, the rest of which he acknowledged he was not familiar with. He read to us some notes on sewage and drainage till we all thought we were getting typhoid fever, and at the end of the term had his colored assistant conduct an exam, at which Dave assisted by handing out the papers. Dave counted the ew-C' men in the room one day and found twelve present, whereas eighteen had answered roll-call. After that we came more regularly and finally got G's on averages of 99. Not the least pleasant were the hours we spent with Dawson, familiarly known as Dis fcontraction of dismalj, who tried to teach us freehand drawing, and to get us to notice the masses and tones, etc., etc. 140 Poor Dis! we certainly did worry him, and with his gentle, ladylike ways he had hard trouble to quell us. Siegel was especially rambunctious in Dis's room' and his name was the one usually rung out to express Sir George's displeasure. Pilcher, too, still retained his clutches on our class in History and we all did well, though Ruhe was the greatest exponent of the system ofPilch erian mathematics. He was constantly demonstrat- ing the formulae X:D,V:G, O:N, and it was remarkable how in a history exam,when he had clearly demon- strated O:N, the introduction of a V immediately changed N- to G-3 however, none but the initiated should know these secrets, and we pass from these scenes of our Junior year through our four days' course in Gothic History, through another summer to our Senior year. That summer, by the way, was a very eventful one. Ruhe, Thomas and Morgan went with Dis Dawson on a sketching tour to England-that is, U Dis did the sketching and the fellows did the towns. It is said that Rowland even went to the Moulon Rouge, in Paris, though urged earnestly by Dis not to do so. Well, when they returned in the fall of course they took the mentions for summer sketches. Dawson was the jury and he had to recognize his own work. Thomas, realizing the injustice of this, decided to relinquish his mention and gave it to Dawson. Morgan changed his course to football X ' and appeared only on holidays and Sundays in the department. Dab Blair concluded 15:3 to stop loafing and started in to work eight evenings in the week instead of seven, and RP to take only Hfteen minutes for lunch instead of an hour. Hall was equipped with a new Varsity P, won decenibf at Saratoga, and Charlie Gilpin had begun to establish his name in the World as a music composer, with the valuable assistance of Eddie Beale , , and his band. Baker-well, of course, Baker never changed, he wouldn't know what to change to, however, from his continual barking and snapping at others, he acquired a new sobriquet that stuck like a leech, that of The Dog. Wal Ruhe became his master, and it used to require some adept handling to manage Prints, When this joke on Baker originated, Senator Bodine was actually known to smile for three consecutive seconds. This year We were associated with the Specials and were introduced to the work under Seeler and Sally Everett. jamie Koch, however, not satisfied with this, took advanced Physics, under Barker, in addi- tion. Lincoln was the shark of the Specials. He could draw from life without looking at the originalg in fact, some said he was so good he did not have to use pencil and paper. Charlie Krieg, the famous boy tenor and cornetist, was one of the would-befs of the Specials. It was funny to see Charlie get sore when his work was criticised. Well, it was a shame, he should have had a mention in design any way. Krieg, Kuenzli and Bellman were not considered good enough to take water color and freehand with us, though ,,.. 141 Bellman was finally promoted, and the Boy Tenor did not like that either. Rheinfrank, a way back, hap- pened to drop into the class, after having been away a year, and helped to make things unendurable. Churchman was a member of the Special class, but one might have thought he was in the course in Interior Decoration from the number of hours he spent in the room devoted to that subject. It may be well to add that this was the room in which the co-eds held sway. It is said that the appearance and disappearance of Church's moustache was controlled entirely by the opinions of the lady members of that department. We lost Seeler within a month or so and in his place was appointed a man well up in the matter of indication and detail, Mr. Frank Edson Perkins, with Whose methods we soon became thoroughly familiar. His criticisms comprised a few stereotyped expressions, which we soon committed to memory, and, knowing them thoroughly, we were able to criticise our own work as well as Perkins and he, realizing this, did not materialize so frequently. One thing Perk could do, and that was to use tracing paper and lead. Sally, bless my soul! was a big feature of our last year's work. We had him, QQ, or rather he had us, in three subjects. Once a week he showed us some pictures and read 'Wi' . from a book by Berenson, and that the catalogue called History of Fine Arts. In Historic Ornament, however, there was more work than play, although the length of time we were W: required to work on a problem was regulated entirely by Senator Bodine, whose progress . determined the progress of the whole class, and his work determined the status of the class. Senator was always in No. I class, the rest were secbnds or thirds. It was a great cinch I f for Sally to teach our class in charcoal, we knew it all and he simply sat in the room and - NX read the newspaper or Berenson. Nor must our interesting work with Charles Cthe BoldD Dana be overlooked. His little conversationes every Thursday morning were hugely enjoyed. Charles flunked some of the fellows at the mid-years, and then Popsy issued a long bulletin as to how the work should be made up and established laws by which we could make N-I-'s and N-'s. Charles has done a good deal in wafer color, especially if his stories of How it Rainedf' etc., are true, but we must pass to the closing scenes of our career. About Easter time jamie Koch mysteriously disappeared from our midst and up to the time of this writing has not been heard from. Doe Morgan was stricken with the mumps also about this time, a reward which he got for leaving our company to work in the junior room, where the disease was prevalent. During his sickness, not wishing to be idle, he sent a messenger with a sewing basket to bring him all his materials, which included two double-elephant boards-he got them. .ff 142 Our long hours were constantly brightened by snatches of harmony issuing from the throats of Gilpin, Churchmau and Cap Walker, occasionally strengthened by the rnelodious tones of the Boy Tenor, Krieg and Tommy, and with other enlivening scenes with which the monotony of our hum-drum drafting life was broken, We are convinced that our work has not been altogether drudgery, and we look back with pleasure upon the many hours, night and day, We have spent over the drafting boards. Robbed at the shop by Siegel and Gillette, co-partners in the firm of extortioners and money-makers, amused by the antics of the all-around comedian Ruhe, and listening to Gi1ly whistle his own two steps for our delectation, we prepared our- selves to take up the reins of a business life in the architectual profession, and with these happy memories of Popsy's kindergarten hovering round us We bid our last adieux to the Architectural Department. .i 'POP5YiS POLICE ', l f' Q-A i -- LLL ir.

M - 'cu ' --. - - . , '- r' HEN Willie Reginald Siegel, the raven locked president of our distinguished Architectural Society, returned to college in the fall of '98, it was quite evident from the ossined smile that wreathed his countenance that he had a dark plot on foot and was bent on doing something real devilish. This proved only too true, for Willie's first edict was a summons to his clan to meet in his own little boudoir in the Dormitories, announcing as a side attraction that beer would How like Water and that no prof not even George-would be admitted. Of course it is needless to say that there was a full attendance, and that no business was transacted, the only incident of note being a heated discussion between Churchman and Gillette upon the eligibility of Miss Shea for membership- Churchman, of course, defending the rights of the fair sex. . This meeting raised Siegel to such a high pitch of popularity that Wal Rube, determined not to be outdone, requested that he be allowed to give a grand entertainment to both students and profs This 144 CL 9'6- Q1 IT ,- -as fywv ,-R The Architectural Society. request was granted and an informal meeting in the Department was allowed to intervene in order that Ruhe's preparations might be the more dazzling. Wheii the memorable night of Ed's collation arrived, the room was packed to the doors, every- body knowing that with Charley Dana as the speaker of the evening, it would not be a Christian Associa- Qi tion meeting. Ruhe and Siegel Cjust to show what Battery A missed in not getting LQ themj endeavored with the assistance of a chahng dish to illustrate the art of camp cook- QQ-35 ing, while Charles Krieg, who had just been taken into the Society, gave one of his famous K-'-1 boy tenor selections, amidst Vociferous applause from Dawson and Pilcher. Dana was as usual full of stories from every clime while Pilcher, not to be outdone, told with his nasal aberration, known as a voice, how the same things had happened to young Cor- bin and him in Albania. He realized however that he could not make up stories as fast as Dana and so refused to appear at the next meeting, which was held in town at Thomas' house. However with the initiation of three men, one of whom was jim Koch, it is needless to say that things did not drag. Tied together as convicts and armed cap-a-pie with various household articles, these novices made a tour of the city, closely followed by Ed Seeler and a large gang of rooters who goaded on the unhappy victims NH' with uncharitable imprecations. Upon their return Jim upheld his reputation by delivering one of his charmingly sarcastic speeches, while Gilpin and Thomas, just to show what bold bad boys they really 3'- were, did not hesitate to sing to Dr. Laird an original parody in which 1,7 he was decidedly it. As a Etting close to this meeting, Siegel I,-1 drank so much wine that the entire Society had to convey him to the 'If' University Hospital, where for the space of three weeks he paid the -, . .. --V-2 L7 penalty of his crime. J , S Since Gillette had been elected to the exalted position of treas- t' V urer he felt that it was his turn to do something for the Society, and so 'f summoned the next gathering to his house. Monsieur Econ-me Perkins-whose mushroom hat indicates his recent arrival from abroad , ' I '- ' -delivered a talk which was so punctured with interruptions from -ar? 'Q Lew Pilcher that it might better have passed for a dialogue. The sketch problem, a Gate Lodge to an English Estatef' certainly showed that the authors had originality 'GN 147 if nothing else. jim H Koch put the kitchen directly opposite the front door so that the savory odors might warn a visitor, what to expect for meals. This wonderful economy in menus appealed so forcibly to the- jury that jim 1' was given nrst mention. Doe 'l Morgan Qso called because he was continually taking a V rise out of Danaj got second mention because he had been to England and Q seen the real thingf' while Wal'l Ruhe, with Quay-like ingenuity, fi succeeded in putting Dawson on the jury and so getting third place, although NE he had a closet 6' x 6' and a cake box 2f x 3' which he called a kitchen and 5 H. a pantry respectively. However Dawson said that it was tremendously , ' n Q ' iine since there was a lovely big parlor overlooking the tender green, where X A ' the gossips might sit and chat as they sipped their tea, and so we let it go Q., at that. Preston conceived the novel idea of standing on his head when pw he designed his, and so obtained a building that was just as satisfactory upside down as any other way, while Thomas, who thought he had some- f . -125. cm: thing good, had his design fired out because the necessary expense of - 7 connecting the kitchen with the front door by a long distance telephone fl 2 U XX was too great. Then after the members had watched Morgan perform one of his spasmodic efforts in breaking chairs and other furniture ad libitum until both actors and spectators were tired, the meeting was declared adjourned, and with it closed the riotous proceedings of the Society for the season of '98-'99. That the Professors enjoyed the meetings quite as much as the fellows, we feel sure, and that the Society will continue to flourish we are equally positive, although Baker assures us that when Qemphasis on when D he becomes a great architect we will regret not having taken him in and will only be too happy to have him join the band as an honorary for as he calls it, ornery j member. j 5i?!i'T7bff,fP7 ,, - aw 1 ,, f .f it f 1' tfiwiff 'V JR!-Ni MPY ia t sv 4- 'Bi sf ,,fi -.1 JY .'

However, we survived, and looking about us we found there were three co-eds in the class. To some of us this was a great surprise, but Fox generously remarked that on the whole he was not sorry. He liked girls. CAnd later events certainly seemed to demonstrate the truth of his statementj In our Freshman year we spent but six hours weekly at the Bi, but in those few hours we developed traces-I should say Anlagen-of the genius that has since distinguished us. Here Billy Welsh, he of the slumbrous eye and massive brow-W. W. Welsh, the mighty hunter, appeared to his best advantage. Occasionally he essayed to take notes or look through his microscope, but usually he slumbered sweetly.

Fox was distinguished by having more unnecessary truck on his laboratory table, more drawings Qpertinent and impertinentl inside his notebooks, and more scribbling and dust on the outside thereof, than any three people in the class. In those days FoX's shoes did not squeak, and his mien showed an humble and a contrite spirit. But even then he showed symptoms of that desire to become part of the permanent equipment of the Bi, which has since led him to spend all his waking and some sleeping hours there. Then there was Thomson, whose fingers were mostly thumbs, and whose power of resistance was such that not even the eiforts of so helpful a quizzer as Dr. Macfarlane could shove him throughf, And, lastly, there were the three girls in the class, but they were not impressive, for, after six months, Thomson was heard to say that he never could tell which was which I In November we were dazzled by a shining light from State College in the person of Roth. This youth was especially remarkable for his nerve, his marvelous imagination, his superlative gift at taffyingf' and his horsemanship, for he has been known to ride a strange pony successfully over absolutely unexplored territory. In Sophomore year, owing to Welsh's defection, we adopted as an appropriate class motto We are seven. As spring advanced, we went on field trips, and many and moist were the tramps we took, although we fre- quently came back with nothing more rare and valuable than colds and May-Hy larvae. Toward the end of the year we indulged in metaphysical discussions, and the class learned with delight that Dr. Calvert could not tell the X ,27- safe-4? fa 4 . si Ji 1 . - ' MQ if 9, Q79 g 'K co-eds why some people's hands feel so different from others, when one holds themf, junior year found the class somewhat reorganized, for we lost one co-ed and gained another, while Thomson joined the Meds, For the first time we were joined by our Biological-Chemical classmates of '99, Fox, as usual, elected about forty hours a week, and then wondered why he fell asleep over dissec- tions. We put all our spare time, z'. e., all the time we could abstract from other things, in making paraflin sections of chicks and tadpoles in all stages of development. There are few occupations more productive 150 of profanity than this, and even Fox has been known to fling his forceps emphatically on the floor when his sections stuck to his tlngers. When we were not drawing every section in a series covering thirty slides, we were out paddling in near-by streams getting bottles of slime and goo for Dr. Porter. These we subsequently examined and drew C! ? D, while Dr. Porter ranted up and down the room about our slowness, and, generally speaking, proved the truth of his oft-repeated assertion that he never scolded. After the mid-years, Roth left the class entirely, and when the first spear of green appeared we were exhorted to sit by the order beds an hour a day, for otherwise it will be a diiiicult thing altogether to get just that broad conception of the orders that we would like. The great success of our wheel trips in June, over fine roads and in good weather, pu 2 pf gi., caused us to be so unduly puffed up in our own 9? .w i 1, - i in Q. h Ssnceil that wet thoilight we gould ide lany- wy .W ,li -' 75 fi.. p mg e ween wo ences. o in ri we ii I E explored the lanes around Cobb's Crelek and H Neshaminy. The results were what might AFA 'M lf M have been expected, and we decided to defer Til. Ai A V 53 ll? our next trips until the L, A. W. converted all the farmers around Philadelphia. Theses for Senior year now began to loom up. Fox was seen fishing for f i ki NW, tadpoles from early morn till dewy eve, and talked incessantly of various stages, -I il x still to be caught. One of the co-eds began to babble learnedly about the , ,k N amount of ash in corn, another was implored to spend her ffcontinuous time g , i by the side of a small weed, and the third became the class authority on the ' :J -s El domestic economy of spiders. Q B Senior year found Fox the only man in the class. We learned this year E Q that they also serve who only stand and bake, for when the sensitive plants were riffs a under optimum conditions altogether Cat Q50 Fahr.D we were not. The same 1' O program was repeated each weekl We went softly into the laboratory at ten to 1 f4 f find no one there. All but Fox scattered to other occupations, but that misguided youth always had tadpoles to look at and never escaped in time. About ten-thurrty or thereby, Dr. Mac came hurry- ing in. - f'- 151 Ahh, Mr. Fox! Gude morning! Class not here? Have they not been about pretty Well already? Where will they be, then ? Shall I mark them absent ? This was a great responsibility for Fox, and it was a relief to him when the doctor began to outline the Work on the slate and he could slip out to hunt up the recreant class. Later, all departed to the store- house to practice upon the unfortunate rnimosas every indignity that the mind of man could conceive. We have been accused of grumbling on all occasions, and it has even been said that we complained for the pleasure of it. It is therefore natural that at the close of Senior year we find ourselves growling most desperately because the work and the play and the friendly intercourse that made up our four pleasant years are at an end. ffwq V Q 'lk Xva-I T52 l e ..C'.2A f'.'+a,L'4. .ni ,44,,, n 3' 1. ifxfviws ff N ' f'- View from the Botanical Gardens Hrts in Biology s.rS.f'sf' 7 , Q T the beginnin of the unior ear our ancient and architecturally beautiful Bi H Hall S Y .,..v,l is , .XQQUW li s t' Q ., received, with open arms and doors, one of the largest delegations that has ever f p f 'gg il budded off from the Arts course. They were all choosing biology, with serious hopes of becoming embryonic physicians later on. Work was commenced under Dr. Mac, 'i a ,'f:,v,it,4-i- 'bw' fl who told how he had brou ht from Edinbur h the only s ecimens of certain plants if vga QM -'Q 'L . g . . p . W gggw A that could be obtained. Dr. Macfarlane, in his botanical work, was ably assisted by ss 'f er I Professor-elect McKenney and Dr. Harshberger. '-15's'.- 96:1 .- +, - 'si' Fox, the only true biologist of ,QQ, was always prepared to present each of us with a program of the coming L' Field Club trips, which he and Dr. Harshberger arranged weekly, and of which they were sole proprietors, but as he could not explain satisfactorily what happened on these quiet walks through the woods we never went. In cat anatomy, under the instruction of Dr. Burke, we became used to the sweet odors of our feline subjects, and all caught D.'s in the mid-years. Boice was our particular star in this subject, and in some of his original researches he discovered that the bladder is located in the thoracic cavity. This wonderful dis- covery is perhaps due to the fact that Boice always dissected with heavy rubber gloves. Every department has its head devil, but in our class their number was three-Hill, Rumford and Parish-and a triumvirate whose brains could concoct more devilment in a short space of time,would be hard to find. The long afternoon hours with Dr. Harshberger offered most excellent opportunities for them, and whenever a pipet full of water suddenly shot down the neck of some very busy student, it was sure to have come from the practiced hand of one of these three. Their chief delight was to have a three-cornered catch, using as a ball anything from a bottle of acid to a dead mouse, but Dr. Harshberger stopped this by suggesting to Hill that he should join the Freshman baseball team. We were rather a sharp class, and only once did anyone get ahead of the whole class and make us do extra work for nothing. One afternoon Dr. Mac called for volunteers to take fifteen-minute reports of the growth of an old peanut vine. The Soph. co-eds, who worked with us, immediately offered, and 'T 155 so the fellows thought it would be unwise to show a lack of interest in any plant, as the exams were very near. For two nights the fellows watched for three hours each, and even Hill managed to get out to West Philadelphia at 2 a. m., while at 4 a. m. a igure, arrayed in the most light and airy of costumes, was seen emerging from the dormitories, and we knew it must be Rumford.. Our Senior year, bringing back with it the same happy-go-lucky crowd, will never be forgotten nor regretted by any of us. Some changes were noticeable among the fellows, however. Sautter was a little less quiet and dignified than the year before, and, having developed into quite a sprinter, maintained that the balmy breezes of the February blizzard were the most suitable for training for the track, and that the small drifts only increased the circulation in his bare legs. James had become a regular sport, wearing his carefully brushed hat a little over one ear, and was even caught one day winking at one of the co-eds, but what can you expect of a fellow who is going to study homoeopathy! Boice was the photographer of the depart- ment and furnished us with some ine pictures of the 'K Bi. We are sorry to say that he was a little too fond of l1is bed, and was never known to get to a nine o'clock hour ou time. Parish was still crazy about shoot- ing, and at regular intervals used to challenge the class individually and collectively to a match. Hill was still riding his various athletic hobbies, but we were used to him by this time and his heartrending appeals to us to try for the teams were of no avail. . A thermometer was never needed in the Bi, as Sam Rumford would disturb the whole class every tive minutes to open the window, but Rum, you must know,was the chairman of the Fresh Air Fund of the Delaware Mud Flats. If the reader wishes to know more concerning this gentleman he can doubtless be found on some of the marshes near W'ilmington searching for malaria germs, and can be identified from afar by his old gray hat, with two holes in it, and a very rank smelling pipe. The only addition to our number this year was Adolph Van der Wieleii. Now everyone knows what a soft spot Adolph has for the wearers of rustling skirts, and the only thing that surprised us was that he was able to keep away from our attractive co-eds during his first three years in college. 156 ei. 4 Lit- fi ,, A aff fn r ss, ff, M my Qgall r t ' A W0 E lil ll -rt' --ff: . , I -'T' , S.R,r'1oRc.nNi. UR four years' race is o'er, and those destined to run the full course have at last passed the judges' stand, with flying colors. From start to Hnish many have fallen, and it is but a few of all that number of starters setting forth in the autumn ot' ,QS who have survived all obstacles, and come down the home stretch triumphantly over the last hurdle. Among those denied the privilege of completing with us our college course, there have been many inseparably connected with our class development and the establishment of Ninety-nine's social, intellectual and athletic standards. These men are as essentially of Ninety-nine as are we-the survivors-who now alone enjoy the class prestige they helped to sustain. To even the callous college graduate, reserved in feelings and sparing of sentiments, comes an unwonted pang of sadness as memory recalls these friendships formed and prematurely severed. To look back over four years seems a feat of memory, yet this we must do in order to connect with Ninety-nine Bill Horner, Tub Andrews, joe De Silver and Bob Oglesby, all of whom aided materially in establishing our Freshman athletic supremacy. Then there were the Spencer boys, who since the Freshman days have added social and intellectual prestige to Wesleyan University, While Smith, who pulled on the Freshman eight, left us to enter Amherst. These were by no means all who depleted our numbers during the first year, but separation meant less to us then than it did later and these others have passed into mental oblivion. To them-our unnamed dead -we consecrate a passing tear. T57 With our second year a feeling of fraternity and social unity grew up. We were no longer an experiment, an uncertain quantity-all this had we put aside with our Freshman existence, and as Sophomores we established ourselves as an indispensable factor in the,University organism. The losses we were to- experience from now on, were to find adequate appreciation in personal acquaintance with one another. At this period of our career Tex Abrahams became involved in several large deals in the card industry. TeX's stock fell and with it his year's tuition, which he had staked upon the speculation. Tex left us and has since devoted his activities, which gave promise of added athletic honors for Ninety-nine, to the founding of a home for bankrupt plungers. The tedium of Sophomore Chemical experimentation proved too much for the lively genius of Judas Shellenberger, and he too went the way of the blessed. Though out of the actual race Shelly has never severed his social connection with the class, and at each banquet, since his cessation of intellectual activities with us, his accounts of subsequent adventures as actor, nickel-in-the-slot-machine robber, etc., have been features of the evenings' programs. At the Sophomore mid-year, Sam Dunn Qwhose reputation as a reckless roisterer and loud-mouthed rooter gave him a unique position in the Universityj balked, and expressing himself the epitome of his name, left us to pursue his studies at the Keeley Institute. Barry Colahan's business aspirations inet with the Faculty's approbation, and their permission written in red ink on the examination results, signified another loss to us. f The end of the Sophomore year saw a still greater depletion of our numbers. When George Sagendorph sang his swan song as Pegasus, the Peerless, Peregrinating, Phrenetic, Performing Horse at the Cremation of Hallet, and entered the world of business, we lost at once an energetic class-worker and an incomparable wag. At this same time Espen, having endeared himself to usd by his distinctly Semitic qualities, was mourned as a departure. To the Medical School we now contributed Mucker Dillard, Thompson, and Harrar-our embryonic Mask and Wig celebrity 3 the Law School claiming the supple creole gymnast, Williams. Bob Horner and Proc Preston now decided on a five years' course, and were permitted to join 1900. Another of our crew devotees left us in the person of Sinkler, who finally Wearied of his chronic habit of receiving three conditions each exam. Trench Newbold left us for much the same reason, while it was rumored that Bert De Young, who contemporaneously became a negative quantity, withdrew at the urgent request of the Faculty. Robbed thus of some of our choicest spirits Ninety-nine passed into her Junior year. 158 Up to the mid-years we still could claim the athletic abilities of Billy Whelen and Ambruster. Physique however availed nothing before the onslaught of the irrepressible Mac, and they too were irremediably lost. Paul Hagy attended two of McMaster's lectures as prescribed in the Arts course-and then gave up the ghost. Then the Faculty learned of the relationship between the brothers Laird-the Prof. and the student QD. Lairdis games were called and, Osterhout agreeing to keep him company, the architectural section became less by two. At this season of catastrophe we lost another valuable athlete and a classmate oisteadfast character, Stan Rogers becoming a lamented quondam. When at the end of the Junior year Landis and Finley, in order to escape parental observation, decided to spend their last college year at Cornell, Os Willson meanwhile transferring his affections to fair Harvard, and Pete Overiield deserting us for the Law School, an embargo was put upon withdrawal and we decided to wind up at the finish without further depletion. In the culmination of our college career let us not forget our erstwhile classmates, who, though not with us to share the honors they helped us win, will join us in the world to lend an added sheen to the lustre of Ninety-nine. ,,- NLM nr '1l 'i 'W 159 ll , A ,X ki: -' elm u RV I' , N the o inion of all true sons of Old. Penn two of her most beloved traditions are the Bowl - ol . . p . . . . . I , Fight and the Cremation. Both are distinctively Pennsylvania customs and both have existed since the memory of man. Ninety-nine made a vreat success of l1er Bowl Fight as sl1e did of everything else, but e W . D . . . D ' . . . D 'ff - ' her star pertormance, the brightest Jewel in her crown of brilliant achievements, was the Cremation. The natural antipathy existing between the class and mathematics made George Hervey Hallet a tit subject for the flames, and as Eddie Mechling was president of the class that year and Lamberton dean, the latter came in for his share of the fun also. Now, we will have you know that the decision to burn Hallet Was not arrived at hastily, but only after the most mature deliberation on tl1e relative merits of candidates for the honor. Homer Smith had not yet gone to Hawaii and his name came up for dis- cussion, but when it was remembered that Ninety-eight showed their poor taste by wasting their poorer eiforts on the Bard of the Occidentj' Homerls name was dropped from the list. Ambruster wanted to burn all the professors, on general principles, but the thoughtful members of the committee decided it to be at least inju- dicious to overcrowd Hades, and perhaps dangerous to their future comfort. The next thing was to get appropriate songs, and with one accord all turned to Tommy l' Donaldson, as the chief playwright of the class. Tommy can write songs almost as easily as 'K Count Parry can 160 make a speech, and in a short time produced a collection which would make De Koven and Smith take a back seat. Charlie Gilpin was ordained chief musician and succeeded in persuading the class to learn almost a whole song, such was the enthusiasm with which he Worked. ' Friday, june 4, was the day set for the event, but through the plottings of the mathematical depart- ment it rained that night, causing the large crowd of spectators clamoring for admission to wait a day longer. Such was the interest in our performance that several prominent citizens could not stand the strain of this postponement and had nervous prostration. However, after a rehearsal, at which it was clearly proved that no one knew anything about words, songs, or music, the circus took place on Saturday evening. f'Eddie Mech took tickets at the gate and George Turner was general manager. The south stand on Franklin Field contained a crowd of people eager to see a really good show. Doggie Ambruster had insisted on hauling in Hallet on a garbage cart, and through his pull with the city oihcials hired a fine new rig. Inst before the exercises began Bill Morice, the chairman of the committee, arrived to see if all the work had been done, Bill having scruples about doing any himself. The band struck up while Tommy,', as the devil, began to speak. Instantly a hush fell on the multitude. Then from a distance came sounds of much talking, caused by Gendell and Elliot debating who was to go first. Ed insisted that all his friends were on the front row and Gendell demanded that he be first in order to show off his costume. To the tune of El Capitan' in marched the class, dressed in red tights and night-shirts, and drawing after them Hallet, Ambruster and the garbage cart. Ambi banged the lid of the cart to drown the song, succeeding to such an extent that the audience thought the music was great. The band didnit know when to begin and neither did the class. When Tommy thought it about time for a song, he would dance over and tickle the leader's ear with his whip. This so angered the leader that he ordered the band to play fiat just for spite. This aggregation of musicians insisted on playing an introduc- tion to every song, and the class, not to be outdone, insisted on singing. So, having used up all the words on the introduction, slight repetition was necessary when the second verse was reached. Bill Morice conducted the prosecution, and when not engaged in looking over the stand to make sure he was duly appre- ciated, succeeded in mumbling a few words. The co-eds, of course, conducted the defence, while Parry, when he was not talking, did well as judge. After two or three songs, rendered in the most charming manner, the great variety acts began. Number one was the Mystifying Death Scene, or,Where Is He At ? Forrest Magee and Doe Morgan were both Hallets, and as one would disappear around one side of the V-shaped scenery the other would reappear from the other side. This caused many exclamations of surprise from the audience at the great speed 'JN 161 of our victim, but soon Doe tripped over a guy-rope and Forrest fell on his neck, giving the secret away and causing the audience to laugh at the way they were being buncoed. In the next scene George Sagen- dorph rode a two-legged mule, with legs alarmingly like his own, in a performance with Satan as his side- partner. Never did two characters better suit each other. Wl1en Saggy forgot his part Tommy yelled, and when Tommy's voice gave out Saggy began to swear. The two noises, blending in sweet harmony, caused this part of the performance to be highly successful. Next came Charlie Morgan's dance, which even George Turner admitted was good, and Miles Gibbons' stick-twirling exhibition was followed by such applause that another song was immediately ordered. But now happened apeculiar thing, so astonishing the audience that even the music was forgotten. The devil was heard to call loudly for Lamberton Q Bill 'l Lainbertonj, but received no response. Then the whole class took up the cry, and way up in the grandstand our honored Dean arose. Slowly he came down the aisle, but in their anxiety about conditions most of the class forgot that Bee Hemphill was to appear, and wanted another song to prevent Lumberton from making himself heard. But this was not allowed, so on came Bee, looking so much like the Dean that Penniman began to have his doubts. The trial took place, and after several eloquent speeches the prisoner was let out on bail. This, it is reported, is the only part of the whole proceeding that josh didn't like. Perhaps it was coming a little too near home, for you must remember that Josiah was our Sub-dean that year. After the various bluffs had all been given Hallet, being duly condemned, the fire was lighted, and while Ambruster knelt with a Cherub-like smile on his dainty features, the former tormentor of our souls was committed to the flames. Stretching around the fire in a circle the last rites were performed, and as George Hervey was being con- sumed there fioated across old Franklin Field the strains of Lift up your heads, ye gates of brass, sung to our triumph song: Now vanish musty cube roots, too, We blast geome-trees, To algebra a fond adieu, Floats on the heated breeze. Several days later a fairly honest member of Ninety-nine is said to have heard Lamberton remark to a fellow-professor: Say, those Sophomores didn't do a thing to poor Hallet at the cremation the other night, did they? 162 ! X Xl ' l H OWL FIGHT to-day, gentlemen? Yes, yes. I knew it, I knew it. Bowl hghts are not what they used to be. Used to start at noon and fight till there was no one left to fight. Used to have a carriage waiting on Woodland Avenue for the bowl man. Bowl man 'd get away from the Sophs about dark, jump in the carriage, driver 'd whip up his horses and away they'd go off-down town with the Sophs in pursuit. Know all about it. Class made me bowl man, because they knew I was a good man for the position. Such was the beginning of one of the lectures in our course in Physical Education, Freshman year. We had previously taken a course in the History of the Bowl Fight with Professor Albert Wilson, P. O., M. P., and after Randy Faries had given us minute information as to how a bowl ight should be fought, we felt that Ninety-eight's orange was peeled, particularly as the members of that illustrious class had been afraid of us ever since the day of the corner fight. In fact it was with the greatest diiiiculty that we managed to induce them to participate at all. First, they suggested that the bowl ight be dispensed with, and when we refused to comply with this suggestion, they enlisted the sympathy of the Athletic Association, which forbade the iight unless the participants agreed to pay for all damage done tothe held. Knowing that My 163, I i Ninety-eight would be too soft to injure the ground we offered to pay all expenses ourselves, but this was not in accordance with Ninety-eight's business principles, and so it was decided to charge an admission fee of twenty -ive cents. Well, the fight finally came off, with the umpire well fixed for Ninety-eight. Charlie Harrison was our bowl man, charged with the duty of making himself scarce at his earliest convenience-and well did he fulfill this duty, for no sooner had the signal been given than Charlie was off down the held at a rate of speed that would easily have won him the quarter-mile at the Intercollegiate. A seven-foot fence was but a small obstacle to a man of Charlie's athletic prowess, and before Ninety-eight had had time to say -i, we had won the first half of the fight. Ninety-eight, however, claimed that there had been an offsside play or a forward pass,', and as the umpire allowed their claim Charlie was called back and the game began again. This time we put our bowl man out in front of the class, so that the people in the grand stand could see him run. Of course this brought him nearer to Ninety-eight, but we knew they could never touch him-and they didn't. Then the second half began, and for a time the fighting was fast and furious. Clothing soon became unnecessary, and as we proceeded the timid approach of nakedness became more and more perceptible, until at last Bill Morice, in all his glory, stood out before the admiring multitude. This was too much for the umpire, and, overcome with modesty, he quickly called time and hastened off the field with the bowl in his possession. ' just here we would like to correct a slight misstatement made in last year's Record. We will quote the following sentence : We took the bowl back to College Hall to dust it a little before having it framed? This sentence must be translated very freely, and as free translating has always been our strong point we submit the following 1 We Q' Charlie i Whartonj took the bowl back to College Hall CTraining Houseb to dust it a little Qdivide it in sectionsb before having it framed Qsawed up and distributed to friends of aforesaid iweyylf ENGAGEMENT NO. 2 . Of course you will understand that in our nrst fight we, by virtue of our position as Freshmen, had to obey the dictates of our uppers Qnot bettersj, and therefore the aforementioned tight, in spite of our efforts to the contrary, was a somewhat tame affair. But now as Sophomores we became the dispensers of Humanity and decided to distribute our wares in the true American fashion 5 that is, by benevolently assimilating the 164 Freshmen before the bowl fight came to pass. A Board of Strategy was therefore established, and the said board soon discovered that the Freshmen, fearing the dire results of a conflict with such a scrappy crowd as Ninety-nine, had decided to have their class picture taken a few days before the iight. Had this picture been taken it would doubtless have been framed with the remnant of the Light Brigade and sent to the British Museum. It is needless to state, however, that the picture was never taken. The Board of Strategy secured exact information as to the date, hour, and location of the transaction, and the news was quickly spread throughout the class. About one o'clock on the appointed day the Freshmen began to assemble on the Library steps, all dressed in their Sunday clothes and thinking naught of harm. Well they assembled and that was all, for while the photographer was still cogitating whether to say Look at the birdie, gentlemen, or Don't smilef' Ninety-nine had essayed from College Hall, and in less time than it takes one to ejaculate Hully gee V' had taken possession of the steps. Of course we all loved the Library, but we could keep its steps warm any day, and just now it was the bowl man, Yaskawa, that we were after. Presently that unwary Oriental made his appearance, and we forthwith proceeded to cart him across the campus, despite the feeble resistance of the Freshmen and the remonstrances of Dean Lamberton, who hovered around like the angel of death, spreading the plague by tapping men on the shoulder and bidding them report at his oliice. Query, did the office need a new carpet the next day P Even now the Freshmen did not understand our little ga-me. They were not to remain long in ignor- ance, however, for by this time we had reached Vifoodland Avenue and were heading for the Phi Kappa Sigma Fraternity house, where Deas Sinkler had the bowl. Then, and not till then, did the Fresh- men realize that they were engaged in one of those old-fashioned bowl Hghts-the kind Randy Faries talks about. And now at last we had arrived at our destination, and many and loud were the cries for The bowl I The bowl In But at this point in the proceedings there came a sad and sudden interruption. The Traction Company had come to the conclusion that they were losing money by not running cars on Woodlancl Avenue, and therefore besought the police authorities to clear the street. Accordingly a squad of blue coats, with clubs drawn, came charging down the street and were soon an integral part of the afternoon tea. Helmets soon became unnecessary and clubs useless, and it was only when one hot-headed councilmanic candidate drew a revolver and tried to arrest one of the principals that the iight was stopped. Then did we all gather behind the iron fence that then surrounded the campus, and with one accord did we lift up ourvoices and cry Oh 'cop I, H HM 165 Of course when the formal bowl 'right came OE' a few days later it was a tame affair. The Freshmen were useless after their severe drubbing, and had it not been for the presence in the fight of Meds, juniors and other mercenaries, we would have had nothing to do but to talk to each other. It is true that the bowl man escaped from the field, but that was only because we did not want to destroy what had come to be a regular custom, and so after pinning him to the ground till the time limit was almost up, we allowed the bowl man to depart in peace. This left us to fight it out with the Meclsfi who thought they had a cinch on the bowl, but they reckoned without their host, and before they had been engaged with us for many minutes, they suddenly remembered the pit from which they were digged and again descended thereinto. We were now the proud possessors ofthe field and the bowl. The latter we carried back to headquarters, and, unlike Ninety-eight, we are still in possession of it.

But on the night itself mirrors were at a premium fortunes were made by the florists and it was rumored that O' 3 7 I even the apothecaries enjoyed an increased trade. But, leaving the economic effects to Sam Lindsay, let us go on to the dance. Well, the carriages commenced to come about nine,-although Bert Corbin was there With his girl at about half-past Houston Club smiling viciously and anxious to do anything he could, not inconsistent with hishdignity as chairman of the committee. ,.- six-and George Thomson, chairman of the committee, was at the door of the 167 When the hall was about half full Eddieu Beale, seated serenely in a labyrinth of palms and raspberry bushes, was given the signal to toot up. The first waltz on the new floor was simply a dream, but a dream from which one of the men was rudely awakened by contact with the shiny surface, an event which caused every girl to shriek and three patronesses to break their lorgnettes. Well the floor was slippery, any one could tell that from the air of abamion l' assumed by each patroness as she was escorted to her seat, from the way in which each one pursued a certain straight line, talking continuously nevertheless, with the utmost indifference. The hall filled rapidly and finally, after Charlie Harrison had come, the dance began in earnest. Some difficulty was encountered when part of the awning fell in from the top, this set the committee at naught, but at Tom Donaldson's suggestion it was agreed to place Billy Wlieleii under the canopy, which only needed to be ten feet above the pavement, and with this support the canopy behaved itself until further assistance could be obtained. But the great sensation of the evening was the lancersf, Now the lancers, being a game in which eight people stand in a circle all opposite each other, is ordinarily very simple. But on this particular night, some of the dancers knew two kinds of lancers, a few knew one kind, and others knew no kind of lancers. Upon Billy Morice asserting that he'd just as lief dance one kind of lancers as another, if not rather, everybody agreed with him. Those, then, who knew the Loomis accommodated their friends by dancing the Saratoga, and vice versa, while those who were familiar with both kinds exhibited theirknowledge by dancing both at once, so thatit was comparatively easy for those who knew no kind to follow after somebody. Billy Arrison lost his set completely and after skating promiscuously through ten other sets, was found doing the grand chain with his partner in the arcade of smilax at the end of the room. The trophy room proved a great attraction to the girls, and when, about midnight, the collation was served, little groups could be found not only in the trophy room, but all over the building even down to the billiard room. There are so many cozy. little nooks in Houston Hall for tete-a-tetes, the window seats on the stairways, the great cushioned chairs round the open Ere places, all are inviting. Two o'clock came before the echoes of the last waltz had died away, and the dance was applauded over and over again, when finally the music ceased and Dave Fleming had been safely separated from the bowl of claret punch, we realized that the Sophomore was a thing of the past, but we all felt that Ninety-nine had done herself proud, and that a fitting example had been set to future classes. Our next dance was, of course, the Junior Ball, which was entrusted to the care of Arthur Spencer, whose prestige in the social world would alone insure success to this function. It was understood that the committee after deducting enough money from the subscription fund to provide necessary souvenir stick 168 pins for its individual members, was to devote the remainder towards helping to pay the expenses of the.ball, any deficiency to be made up by assessments on any members of the class not on the committee, or not voting for Tad Bean for president. Houston Hall, on this occasion, was again decked out in gala attire. For some reaso11 or other, there seemed to be a great many more girls than men, so that the latter had their programs quickly hlled with names. The consequence was that we soon forgot the girls with which the names tallied, and as each dance began there was a wild scramble to find the proper partner. Those to whom Forrest Magee owed anything, used him as a directory because he knows every girl in the city, and where each one is at every minute g but those not so fortunate adopted other means,-for instance Bob Pilling's program showed an ingenious method,- 9. Waltz. Rendezvous. Rosey. Short blonde, small feet, low neck, pink slippers, strong smell lavender. This idea of an inventory was so clever that in a few moments everyone was following suit, and a great problem was effectually solved. But the great dance of the class was our Ivy. This was the crowning social event of our college life, and was held in Horticultural Hall, january I2, 1899. No class was ever so fortunate in her arrange- ments. Through the pull of Arthur Spencer, who was again chairman of the committee, the decorations were simply gorgeous. Long strings of smilax were strung from all corners of the balcony to the immense chandeliersg on the sides were arcades of palms and greens, studded here and there with tiny candles. But we will not dwell on the exquisite taste of the committee nor upon the ability of their chairman,-these were evident to all. Everybody came to the Ivy, no matter which way you turned you were presented to somebody. Qu one hand was W'alter Singer presenting Bee Hemphill to six girls at once, all dying to meet personally the president of whom they'd heard so much. Allow me to present Mr. Hemphill, president of Me class, the man who Cin the words of Senator Parryj left home and family to ight in the glorious cause of his country, who suffered all the horrors of Mt. Gretna, and who rode one hundred miles in a Pullman car Csoft musicj to take offhis soldier cap in the Academy of Music. l'Bee certainly was the lion of the ball, even if he was smaller than Sam Rumford and didn't Weigh as much when he came down on your patent leathers while you were dancing. f-'- 169 One important feature of the Ivy ball, was the fact that we had two kinds of lemonade, one colored red called claret punch and the other colored white called lemonade,-those not addicted to the cochineal habit were supposed to take the latter, while the temperance people could take either with an equally clear conscience. Ninety-nine presented a sorry appearance at college next day, when about six nien came to chapel. Oley H Paul canie to Ames' class with his eyes half-closed, and was awakened at the end of the hour from a deep slumber by a series of punches from Forrest Magee. Many of us, however, were in the same boatg indeed, all of us were in the same boat, with the exception of some few who had not been in the swim. 6 I--ml l I '- 2- 1- t g u- J. ' if' '.

If the victim was a youth of sporting proclivities, he would hear of a feast to be held in an atmosphere of riotous revelry, effervescent effluvium and juvenile joviality, and would promptly produce the three-Hfty. But if the victim happened to be a scholar he would hear of a feast of reason and a How of oul to be held at the Bullitt Building on February 7, 1896, and that the admission fee to this gathering of 5 J learned ones would only be 53. 50 Cnetj. g 171 At any rate, a large number of Freshmen presented themselves at the designated spot on February 7, and the said Freshmen having just passed their examinations--or their examinations having just passed them -it was but natural that they were in for a good time. At nine o'clock the guests sat down, and at nine- thirty Donaldson--who had evidently incurred the enmity of several people in the class and so been made toastmaster--arose. From that time until Arthur Spencer became indignant with the glass door and pro- ceeded to annihilate it, there were large and continuous times. William Welsh Welsh had a beautiful toast. It was written on note-paper, and would have been very effective had the Welshman not come to an untimely end. Roland Fortescue, who lately carried old Ninety-nine's name with honor on Cuban soil and fought with the Rough Riders, attempted a prophecy. It went well enough till Sagendorph took exception to some of Forty's remarks, and then there was trouble. Oh, the speeches were grand, and when the supper came to an end about midnight, the greatest regret was that there would be no more such oratory for at least a year. Of course there was a small damage bill of three or four thousand dollars presented, which the class, with customary promptness, neglected to pay. Probably it was the bad example set by the Freshman banquet which made the Sophomore supper a small but select affair. It was held at the Bourse, on Friday, February 5, 1897. I. B. Colahan, 3d, was toastmaster for the occasion, but when supper was served Barry didn't care for toast. He and the only Shellenberger were entirely overcome with the festivities of the occasion, and the chairman of the committee had to act as toastmaster. Many members of the class forgot to appear at the supper and forgot to pay, so the supper was not paid for until many moons afterward, and Essner S.: Co. had written letters to every one in the University, from the Provost down, threatening legal proceedings unless that 538.50 was paid. Junior supper was popular, the tariff fell to SL75, and the new hotel Bornot held the salubrious Ninety-niners on February 18, 1898. Mingle was chairman and imagined he made a good toastmaster, but he was principally engaged in dodging complimentary remarks, crackers, etc., and didn't have a show. The events of the evening were: Senator Parry's speech on Young America and Pete H OverHeld's ten hour discourse on nothing. At the conclusion of Parry's speech, four Dutch waiters became terrihed, fainted, and on recovering rang up the City Hall, claiming that a 'lkrasie man was there. Parry was lavishly patriotic. He was Jersey first and America afterward, and as the stirring discourse rang out from hill to hill, Bornot's new carpet rolled itself up in a lump and started for home. It was a harmonious dinner until some one consigned Lehigh to a warmer climate than thatof Bornot's. From then until twelve o'clock there was intermittent and consistent trouble. About twelve o'clock, Magee headed a committee of inspec- tors, who proceeded to investigate the brand new hotel, incidentally appropriating everything, from wash- 172 boilers to salt-cellars, until Toni Peirce attempted to snag a folding sofa, fell down stairs with it and awakened a policeman, thus breaking up the evening's festivities. The star banquet was the Senior event, which included more than sixty guests, and was held at the Aldine on February 3, 1899. Nig Fleming was the chairman of the committee and a large attend- ance was the result. Provost C. C. Harrison, Dean I. H. Penniman, Professors Edgar F. Smith and I. j, Schwatt were the guests of honor. The engagement began at nine o'clock and continued until twelve. The members of tl1e Faculty retreated about ten-thirty and left the field to the original claimants. There were some choice speeches. Donaldson being toastniaster made ninety-four separate speeches, and tried to smile when he introduced people whom he didn'tlike. Bill Morice tried to tell about the navy in the War, when he suddenly recollected that he was in the army, and knew more from magazine articles than actual experience. Ruegenberg, Ellis Ward's admirer, had agreed away back in December to toast the army, but reluctantly arose and begged to be excused, as he did not have time to prepare anything. Senator Parry was there again with four feet and a biled shirt. The Senator espoused the cause of Old Glory with tears in his eyes. Lord bless us, it was great I It was a worthy effort and particularly effective by the brilliant remarks, interspersed during the round trip of his train of thought, by the assem- bled brethren. Arrison made a second eloquent speech on Lehigh H amid tumultuous cheers. Lucas and Stitzer were both sadly overcome about eleven olclock by a waiter carelessly carrying a bottle of wine near them. Taking all in all, Ninety-nine made a splendid showing around the festal board, and may she meet often and early in her reunions in years to come. . , . ,JU J, ..r L A . ,, .

Of course Tom was pleased, but he was by no means satisiied. Like Alexander, he had a wild desire to conquer new worlds, and in Barry Colahan he soon found his Hephestion. Now, it so happened that Barry, through years of experience, had discovered the absolute necessity of having a baseball team in every Freshman class, and he imparted to Toni H the knowledge thus acquired. Tom was so struck with the idea that he immediately begun his career as Acting Captain, while Barry started at once to look around the Old Athletic Field for the arm he had lost while pitching at Riverton some four years before. All the would-be ball players in the class turned out to help him find it fearing the dire results that would inevitably attend the experiment of allowing Amos Rusie Goddard to attempt the twirling. 174 33.3 3 X' 251 ' Y Ninety-nine's Champion Base Ball Team The search was still in progress, when, on the eighteenth day of April, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and ninety-six, and of our class the first, King Dickson, led a gang of '97 men out to toy with us. Witli tears in his eyes Barry left the box and, after mature deliberation, came to the conclu- sion that his shape justly entitled him to the cinch of holding down first base. Of course Reds H11m- phreys had to play, for he knew the score of every game that had ever happened. He went to second, while Tom Donaldson vainly endeavored to cover both short and third, which latter was supposed to be the duty of one B. I. DeYoung. Bee Hemphill was allowed to catch, just to show Harry Hodge how little respect we had for his ten thousand dollar arm and ten cent head. Trench Newbold and Amos Russie' vied with each other, much to the disgust of the Baron and greatly to the detriment of Bee's H physical Qmzd momlj welfare, in futile attemps to locate the plate. To complete the cast in this Comedy of Errorsu Balentine and Tex Abrahams were thrown into the outfield to support the energetic Lucas. Well yes, ,Q7 did manage to defeat us. But to this day we claim that if the Varsity Freshman had but taken Hemphill before that game, instead of after it, and hadn't taken Pomeroy, Thomson, Kennedy and Ramsey at all, if the 'Varsity had only found out sooner that Chick Cantlin was not good enough for them and had left us Howard johnson, and if Dave Gendell had refrained from coaching, if -- well, with another team and under more favorable circumstances, we mzlghl have won. The result of this game had such a demoralizing eifect upon us that we never fully recovered from the shock. It was useless for Barry to try to cheer us up with tales of how he used io jbifck. The encourage- ment given us by the addition to our ranks of Morice, Magee and Fleming was more than overbalanced by Hemphill's being allowed to pitch, and we wound up our season with the little end ofa hfteen to five score with '96. Even now we never speak of that Freshman team above a whisper when Tom H Donaldson is around. Oh, but we got back at them in Sophomore year !

In short, everything was lovely, except that Donaldson, Hemphill and Morice all wanted to play because they'd practiced faithfully, and we really hadn't the heart to turn them down until we could persuade Lucas and Humphreys to come out. Morice was put on first and Donaldson in 177 I, ,X centre, and Hemphill was allowed once more to go behind the stick on condition that he would not venture into the box all season. The way we straightened out Dan Layton's curves was a caution to cannon balls, and Igoo fell an easy victim by a score of twenty-three to fourteen. ,Q7 wasn't in it with us at all, and of course we licked '98, when she at last got up pluck enough to play us. Then, as Champions of the College, we put such a plenty on 'K By Dickson's Champion Law School Team, that the Meds all forfeited to us and we were winners of the Varsity Championship. Upon our return to Collegein junior year we discovered that four members of our old gang were among the missing. Thomson had gone to the Med,', Colahan to the Law School, Hinckley to work and Trench Newbold to the devil 1 at least, so rumor had it. We at once realized the enormity of our loss. Newbold, Hinckley and Thomson had always been considered absolutely necessary to the team's welfare. And now we came to the conclusion that Barry, whom we had always before looked upon as more of a luxury than a necessity, was really a necessity too, for upon the very day that we heard of Barry's entering the Law School, Penniman informed us in an after-Chapel speech that necessity knows no law. Of course, we all knew that he meant The Baron. However, as the season opened Captain johnson was lucky enough to ind in Rogers, Frankland and Ruegenburg, men of suiiicient ability to fill the vacancies, and we set to work to lick everything that came our way, beginning of course with '98 so as to get some easy practice. We must confess that things looked a little blue when Frankland, Morice and Hemphill went to war, but Nin Neilson and our grand assort- ment of bench warmers-Fleming, G-endell, Walker, etc.-came to the rescue so nobly that the whole Uni- versity soon came to the conclusion that Ninety-nine was once more entitled to the Championship. The only serious problems that confronted us in Senior year were where to find a team to support our pitcher and where to find a pitcher for our team to support. ' Max Ruegenburg had deserted us for the Var- sity. Bill', Morice was physically, and Crappie Rogers educationally, incapable of assisting us. The same spirit which had prompted Howard johnson to play with us instead of with the Varsity in Sophomore year, had taken him up to State College to Captain the team there. Mat Kennedy and Chick Cantlin had lost their arms, Humphreys and Lucas had lost their ambition as ball players, the rest of the gang had lost what little knowledge ofthe game they had possessed, and the team, quite naturally, lost every game it played. Yet Ninety-nine has reason to be proud of her baseball record. Not only has she given many good men like johnson, Ruegenberg and Radcliff, to the Varsity, but she has twice won the Varsity Champion- ship. Never has she forfeited a game, never has she been shut out. 178 2 Vfifff .. ' ' -f-M :- .wwf -' k ' A- 'iv 'MTH Ninety-nine's Sophomore Foot Ball Team tc. ,L- ' o - 9 . VERFIELD, McCracken, Stearns, De Silver, - Morice, Ruegenberg, Hedges, Oglesby, Ani- bruster, Harrison, Fortescue, 'Whelen-those --1 are a few of the men whose names figure in ,QQYS football record. Probably no class in the College has ever had such material as ,QQ has had, and while it is usually the case that the more Varsity men a class turns out the weaker its class teams are, ,QQ has had two teams that have won the College championship, and been beaten only in the deciding game for the University championship. Our Varsity representatives speak for themselvesg we speak for the class teams. 9 Early in the fall of JQS, the Athletic Association decided to boom the Freshman team. A game was arranged with Harvard's six-foot striplings, and Mr. Knipe was appointed coach. A call for candidates was made, and on the first day of practice Hodge and a few others appeared. As time passed, it was found that there were others besides Hodge-though none like him-and after winning all the class games played except that with '98 Med., after defeating a team generally supposed to be the Haverford College team, and after almost playing the N. Y. A. C., the day of the Harvard game arrived. Charlie Harrison and Jaffray were the opposing captains, and it was right here that Harvard had the advantage, for while the step-ladder, which Charlie was forced to use in order to talk to the said Jaffray, was being brought on the field, Harvard had a chance to get a much needed rest every once in a while. Otherwise we would have won, but despite the playing of Bill Morice, Bob Oglesby, Jack Hedges and the rest, Harvard pulled out the game, 12-4. 181 I f 9 1 Sophomore year found Stearns and Fortescue in the Law School. De Silver hungered after gore and entered the Medical Department, while Horner had become a family man, Oglesby and Andrews had acquired a distaste for study, and Bill Morice and Jack Hedges were Varsity men. Nevertheless, we were not discouraged. Doggie Ambruster, the erstwhile Germantown Academy elephant, was elected captain, and after a long preliminary practice, during which we picked up a few big Hstiffsi' like Dave Fleming, Max Ruegenberg, and Pud Calver, and a little one like Jacobs, who was put at left end to balance the team, as his fellow-patriarch Abrahams played right end, we informed the authorities that we were ready to play. The Freshmen pleaded that they were too young to buck up ff' I against a team like ours, so as they failed to appear on the appointed F, 1,3 day, Amby actually kicked a goal from the field, and having gloriously f f!! I won the game by a score of 5-o, we had our picture taken and laid for'97. A girth ff But as Igoo were too young, so were 797 too old for us, and expired to the tune .. if yj f 8 zs 4 p o 2 -o. W fqsfffj ' We were now the College champions and entitled to play ,98 Med. for M' lik nk the University championship. We met them on a certain wintry day in A, W WX ' tx December. The wind was sighing sadly through the leaiiess branches of the H , ' i trees that do not adorn Franklin Field, and having won the toss, Captain f W i. Ambruster took advantage of the above mentioned sadly sighing Wind, and 1 , the game began. Well, notwithstanding the magnificent display of blue-tinted ft f ' fireworks let off by our captain, the Meds. scored their first-and last- M H ' touchdown in short order, but after this, though we failed to score, the play if D 1 , ' was for the most part in the Meds' H territory, and four times we were within - 1:E52L2' J'fQ ten yards of the longed-for goal. Once Tex Abrahams gota clear field 'F ' fwtff' but, unfortunately, Tex is a long-distance runner and not a sprinter, so he failed to connect. The game ended with the score 4-o. junior year found most of our stars gone. Little Jake was elected captain, because nobody else wanted the job, and we started to work QD. Clarance Chester twisted his neck in a game at Ogontz Che didn't tell us that it was at the Y. L. SQ, and so little Bill Ramsey went to quarter. Early in the season, Willson, who had the making of a iirst-rate half-back, injured his knee, and his place was taken by Weede, the celebrated W'estern star. Stan Rogers, Magee, and Rumford were among others, and ' Max, Ruegenberg-big slob -wentlto full-back. 182 Ninety-eight, as usual, was easy, but we came to an untimely Hnish when we met Igoo, It was all because they had offered inducements to Harry Hodge, Allan Henry, and several other '99ers, to drop a class and play with them. Before the game Weede vowed that if the line would only open up big enough holes he would gain much ground, but notwithstanding the encouragement derived from these words, we were beaten, ro-o. Not the least interesting feature of the game was Reugy's mistaking Howard johnson- who was blocking on'-for the ball, and kicking-but I am silent, Johnson was not. Senior year was a sad one for the men who had played on '99's victorious teams. Not a single memberbf the Freshman team, only two of the Sophomore team, and less than half of the junior team were left, and it was almost impossible to get the men out for practice. Bill Ramsey was elected captain, Morgan was put at half-back because he had managed the Varsity team, and Arthur Spencer was put at guard because he had never played the game. Others were gathered in from the by-ways and hedges, and when we lined up against Igoo we actually had a full team. The story of the game is soon told. We were outplayed, and 1900 won, I4-O. Morgan did some pretty punting and running back on kicks, and Spencer completely overcame his opponent by the eloquence of his words and the vigor of his actions. So ended the football history of the class of '99. 1 83 1 j 2 1 M JH ' t, , A , i r d i . ' af-. -- ' cucaafaam n N the fall of ,95 there was no interclass regatta, so Ninety-nine was forced to wait for the championship until the next year, but in the following spring a call was issued for a Freshman crew to row with Cornell, Harvard and Columbia, in the new race at Poughkeepsie, and before long Ninety-nine could row the lVoodruff stroke so perfectly as to jolt the seats out of the tank. But our joy was soon 'turned into mourning, as a mandate went forth from the College Boat Club compelling us to give up the old stroke for a new one. Under the circumstances this was discouraging, but in the short time that remained before the race the crew learned to row the new stroke in such creditable form that, though it was badly handicapped by having its stroke oar dropped in the final examinations, and was left a length and a half behind by a poor start, it made up a length of what had been lost and finished a good third, half a length behind Harvard, a length and a half behind Cornell, and some distance ahead of Columbia. The bow oar, to whom a 'Vassar girl referred as the little fellow up in front,', was Deasy Sinkler. Stan Rogers rowed two and filled the august position of captain, R. W. Smith was three, Kregelius four, Stearns five, De Silver six, Hall seven, Ruegenberg eight, and Lee coxswain. Considering the short time the crew had to practice and their many handicaps, the result of the race was Very satisfactory and was looked upon as a victory for the new methods. When the crews were called out for the fall regatta in Sophomore year, Ninety-nine turned out a crew that could row away from anything on the river. Preston, Stan Rogers, Herby Hall and 'Deasy Sinkler of the Poughkeepsie crew were the stern four, and the bow four, who had learned the stroke in 184 Ninety-ninc's Champion Crew Freshman year, were Charlie Landis, Rawle Brown, Walter Whetstone and jack Foster. The race was easy, the Ninety-nine crew stopped seven times to pass around the Lager, and when the other crews caught up, rowed leisurely on, beating ,97 to the Columbia bridge by about two lengths. '98 was third, and 1900 last. This gave us the championship of the College, and two days later we won the championship of the University and broke the record in a race with crews from the Medical and Dental departments. We got the lead of the Medical crew near the middle of the island and steadily increased it to the nnish, where some one woke up Charlie Landis in the bow, and told him that we had won. The names of the crew were engraved bn the silver cup in the trophy room, and each man received a cup from the athletic association. In junior year we had Landis, Brown, Sinkler, Foster, Rogers, Hall and Lee of the champion Sopho- more crew, with Max Rnegenberg and Fred Clark instead of Preston and Whetstone. After the usual month and a half of the coxswain swearing at the crew and the crew swearing at the coxswain, and coach Ward swearing at both, the stroke was pronounced to be a finished commodity. However, 1900 was considered to have many line points this year and was looked upon, by its supporters, as sure winners. The day'of the race was a disgrace to the temperate zone. Our boat iloundered through the breakers to the start at the Girard avenue bridge, with the wind blowing a gale and the temperature close to freezing. Ninety- nine drew the lightest shell and the roughest course, 1900 had a better shell and a comparatively smooth course, but at the finish the icycles which hung to their fine points were two lengths in the rear and Ninety-nine again won the championship of the College. '98 was third, 'oi fourth, and a Law School crew last. On the next day the iirst two crews in the College race rowed the first two in the Medical race to decide the championship of the University. Our crew led all along the course, but they were overtaken by ,QQ Medical two lengths from the finish, and were beaten by the slim margin of ive or six feet. This was practically our last race, for in Senior year one of our men got his oarjammed in the lock at the start ofthe nrst heat and we were forced to drop out, our protest for a new start not being allowed. Our Senior crew was Withrow bow, Bellman two, Gilpin three, Brown four, Krieg five, Truitt six, Taylor seven, and Churchman stroke. Lee was again coxswain and was elected captain. The result of this last race was rather disappointing, but Ninety-nine can feel proud of having won three of the class races actually rowed, and of having been second in the other. .Xu 187 ,JSC- N the preceding pages, kind reader, youlhave read- or if you haven't you should have read-of the successes ofour able representatives on the diamond, the gridiron and the river. There our victories were due largely to team work and concerted action, although, of course, there are bound to be stars on every team-baseball players like Lucas, football players like Baker, and oarsmen like McMichael. The history of Ninety-nine on the track, however, is of a diferent nature, and consists of the records of a few individuals. Nevertheless Ninety-nine entered into track-work with the same energy and determination which has always marked her work in the classroom, and the men who sacriliced time and studies in order to strive after punctured bits of copper or cups of solid tin and lead, received their reward. All our candidates were comers, so Mr. Murphy would say on the Hrst day they came out, but on the second he wouldn't say anything, and on the third, if the candidate happened to be sensitive he would hear things that wouldn't sound funny even on a phonograph. Alas, there would be weeping and gnashinff of b teeth, and the candidate's fourth day on the track would never materialize. Some, however, and fortunately for the Track Team, werenlt sensitive. Eddie Mechling was the only one who stuck to the work during the entire four years, for Charlie Harrison and john Shengle, who, together with Mechling, formed Ninety-nine's winning trio during the first two years, stopped running in their Sophomore year and junior year respectively, and left the ranks of the would-bes to join those of the has beens. Later Parry 188 and Withrow were inspired by a love of glory and a desire for fame, and through their enormous wind power succeeded in becoming plodders. Bill, alias Senator, Parry certainly made quite a stir in athletic circles because of his strength, endurance and the aforementioned wind power, and if his name is .not handed down to future generations it will not be the fault of the Free Silver issue. James Renwick Witlirow, otherwise known as themanwhocanrunallday and themannotafraidof big- horse, deserves a great deal of credit for doing hard work, and also a great deal of sympathy for not winning any prizesi Jimmy's remarkable appellations had no mythical origin. You know some men are born lucky, others acquire luck, while still others are unlucky. Well, James was born lucky in that he was endowed with remarkable wind capacity-it is even said that when he took the strength test the wind machines fell into countless bits before the blast he blew. Unfortunately James was not a fast runner, although he had a great deal of endurance, and if there was a girl in the case he would run all day-away from the girl. Moreover, while James was born lucky yet was he unlucky, as was proven by a little incident. It happened in his Junior year. The scene is Franklin Field. Jimmy is on his ten-mile jog. George Turner's horse appears, looks for a running mate, sees Jimmy, but receives no encouragement, and so, just to show her affection, kisses him on the top of his head. Quick transformation. James is having his head sewed up, the air is blue as Mike Murphy makes complimentary remarks about the horse, and at the same time looks sympathetically at James. Vfilliam Bryan was trainer during Freshman year, and was pessimistic and knew it all, so that the atmospheric nutriment that greeted our athletic appetites was of a rarefied kind. Nevertheless Mechling and Shengle both distinguished themselves by winning events in the fall handicap games, and later on they won their P's, being members of the five-mile relay team that defeated Yale. Mechling and Harrison likewise represented Pennsylvania in relay races at New York and Boston, and Shengle displayed his shape at the Yale indoor sports. The same trio and Joe Williams represented Ninety-nine in the Cornell and Harvard dual games and in the Intercollegiate Championship. The outcome of the interclass sports with Ninety-eight was not altogether pleasing to the members of the Class of Ninety-nine, but that was largely due to the fact that Ninety-eight succeeded in working in 'K Bill Stewart as a Soph. However, the class relay team, consisting of Harrison, Mechling and Stevenson, won the College Championship, and the year ended with much praise and many predictions of future victories for the representatives of Ninety-nine on the track and field. Cross country running in the fall of '96 brought out the staying qualities of the class. 'Mechling was the star and won much applause by running a most plucky race against Cornell. The people who attended 189 the football game on Thanksgiving Day that year will long remember his stirring iinish. I-Ie also covered himself with glory by his running on the two and four-mile relay teams in the Intercollegiate Relay Races, bothof which teams were victorious. In the interclass games we were again doomed to disappointment. Besides the old men we had such promising additions as Grover, Williamson, Stitzer, Morice, Willson, Pugh and Pete Overheld, but when it was learned that Amos Rusie Goddard was not going to compete and that Alec Grant was, we knew what the result would be. I-Iowever, if our sprinters had only been one or two seconds faster than they were we would have won anyhow. One of these sprinters, Grover, appeared in a haze of glory this year, but the glory soon vanished and nothing but the haze remained. The important events of the year, however, were McCracken's winning the shot-put and the hammer throw at the Intercollegiate, and the appearance at Pennsylvania of a nectarine from State College, McMichael by name. If there was ever a man that knew it all it was that same McMichael-this was probably the reason that he graduated from State at such an early period. McMichael was a walker and was always sure of a place-provided there were no more than three contestants-and time and space alone prevent us from giving a complete record of McMichael's victories on the track. junior year the Interclass Relay Races were abandoned for interclass games, from which Varsity men were debarred. Of course this restriction seriously interfered with our chances of success, and although Tad Bean's presence on the track inspired fresh hope, and encouraged our athletes to renewed efforts, we did not score half as many points as we did in our baseball game with Ninety-eight. Still it must be said that we would have made a much better showing if Mr. Parry, of New Jersey, who had just discovered that he was a runner, had not been prevented from running by illness, and jimmy Withrow had not lost the chance of his life to win something by being ruled out of the two-mile race through some mistake of the oiiicials. Senior year very few men turned out. McMichael and Parry, the track team fixtures were soon hard at work, and several times Shengle, misled by the idea that he was still a would-be and not a K' has been, tried to re-establish his erstwhile prestige, but his efforts were unavailing, and so he went back to his Work of concocting green dye in the chemical laboratory. Parry won two events in the interclass games, a, third at Princeton, and with Mechling represented Pennsylvania in the Intercollegiate Relay Races. Such, then, has been the history of Ninety-nine on the track. We have won no Varsity championships as we have in other branches of athletics, but we have turned out a number of Varsity men who have worked hard and faithfully, and well sustained the honor of the Class of Ninety-nine. 190 The Mask and Wig Club L f .yIf'Il ,': fi 42.411, . - H, , N.. - f x F-.X Y ig -X ,4 ulx ffffeg-DVM 1 fi fig.

How his practiced eye shone and sparkled as it fell upon the faces of natural comedians, tragedians, heroes, villains, blokes and blackguards, or upon dainty forms and I saucy faces which needed but feminineapparel and a few of Bock's curls to make them irresistible. Wliat an assortment that was, and how famous it has become in taking up and bearing on its shoulders, through four successful years, the Fate X ' f' and Destiny of the Mask and 'Wig Club. e ' F' L From the s uad that then resented itself, at least thirty of the more talented of us were Given positions Cl P s in the chorus, while no less than ten were granted the supreme happiness of filling places in the cast and h h 3 W o can say t at the unparalleled success of the show that year was not d ' ue 1n great part to that as yet infant organization, the Class of Ninet - ' P ' y nine. The trip to Boston and New Havenproved most enjoyable 193 enlivened by such scenes as that of Thomson, the slimy Med., kneeling on the cold asphalt of the station at jersey City, petitioning Fred Neilson Please to forgive his outrageous behavior on the train, that he couldn't help it, just as if that were an excuse for making two cars uninhabitable, and how pale he looked! And then the bridal party which we sighted as we drew up to a quiet little country station! How we all rushed out onto the platform, scattered the party of well wishers and chased the couple, dazed and terrified, all the way up the platform into the smoking car, and through the whole train, until they sank breathless and exhausted upon the hindmost seat! And then how we presented them, through the window, with potatoes and cucumbers, told them they were all right, kissed our hands to them as the train moved off, and finally, tied together with a Pennsylvania ribbon, a program, and a king and queen of hearts, and presented them to the trembling couple with the compliments of the season! And then how pleased they were after all the excitement! Throughout our second yearts performance, Very Little Red Riding Hood, we still continued to put forth efforts in behalf of the Mask and Wig, and it was during the progress of this show that a whisper began to spread abroad that we had within our ranks one who promised to become one of the world's greatest actors. Qld Mask and Wiggers nudged each other as this talented weed-on the occasion of the last night of the show-presented to Mr. McMichael a highly appropriate speech-rendered with gestures, glances, and all the other paraphernalia of good oratory-and incidentally a tin beer mug. 'iW8tCl1 that man they said, and they did well to say so, for in our third year when the House that jack Built appeared for the first time on any stage, there appeared in the part of Dick Whittington our own little Tom Donaldson. From the moment of his first appearance in that part-and they say that on that occasion every old tabby in the house rose and smiled at him-down to the present time, his career upon the stage has reflected the greatest credit upon the Mask and Wig Club, and has helped to prove that the Mask and Wig shows are something more than mere ordinary shouting, dancing and jesting, and that they contain, at times, rather more than a suggestion of downright good acting. Ah well! with the close ofthe present Mask and Wig season-during which the class's honor has been upheld by Tommy in the title role of Captain Kidd, U. S. Nf'-the history of Ninety-nine in college theatricals is at an end, the days of rouge and wig, stays and petticoats-some will deny this latter statement-are over, and as we look back upon our Mask and Wig experiences, we see nothing but a great jumble of incidents and experiences. We see flashy uniforms, pretty dresses, wavy scenery, blinding calciums, flowers, eggs, perchance a salad, skinny legs--perchance buxom Kennedy Hill's, mishtting symmetrica1s-- perhaps Wal Ruhe's, and strident voices--perhaps everybody's. But we enjoyed it and everybody enjoyed it and now we depart leaving behind us our most benign blessing. 194 Q - 5:41-4:g'. -S A The Gun Club il- --li.

Y 'HQ-rf 'Y r-f V 4' Y' T-' 1 1 - ' ' HE Gun Club, previous to the advent of the class of ,Q9, had led a checkered and unnatural life. From the time of its foundation, which occurred so far back in history that Pomp and jackson alone can remember it, the club had never entirely given up the ghost, and sometimes it would spring into great notoriety, as in 1888, when it defeated Harvard, but more frequently it seemed to be sinking forever into a comatose condition. Likeall other worldly institutions of the University it had been awaiting the arrival of ,QQ to make things boom. jab Brinton, '98, Oley Paul and Harry Hodge started the ball rolling in Sophomore year. They got permission to shoot in a field at Fernvvood and then purchased for the enormous sum of 510 the home of a Chester County tramp. To unite the club house and grounds a dump cart was hired and after enormous elfort the shanty was hoisted on top of it. The procession then started down the trolley track for 197 the grounds. Slowly the ramshackley outht creaked and swayed along the street while we argued with half a dozen irate trolley conductors who were trying to pass us. And now when victory seemed almost at hand the railroad bridge loomed up between us and the field. In vain we pushed and tugged. The house obstinately refused to go under the bridge. So there was nothing to do but unceremoniously dump it down by the roadside, which would compel the members to carry the traps and clay pigeons back and forth under that infernal bridge every time they wanted to shoot. The next day the P67Z7ZSJ!!'Z!d7ZZ.6l7Z declared that the reorganized Gun Club had secured suitable grounds, traps, etc., purchased an attractive and commodious club house and was prepared to accommodate a large number of candidates for the team. Alas! a few days afterward two ragamulhns broke into the commo- dions building and stole everything but the club house itself. The treasury was exhausted and Paul had to advance the club 56 to start up business again. Of course Paul was promptly elected president in the hope that he could be induced to lend the club some more. The strong point in the club this year was holding business meetings. We met daily, sometimes twice a day, but we could never do any business because VValt Singer, Wiii Neilson and Paul all insisted on talking at once. Walt was the worst as he talked incessantly, while Oley and Win had to stop now and then for want of breath. The deadlock was finally broken by electing Singer secretary. Walt then turned his attention to drawing up innumerable constitutions which were invariably ratified and never carried out. Walter's theory was that every time we got a new member he had to create a new oihce for him. A team Was finally put into the Held and Will Neilson chosen as its manager, with express instruc- tions to try and find a team weak enough for us to beat. At the end of the season Win was still looking for that team. Enough said I The following year we moved to Fernwood, where we rented a really swell shanty with a front porch and glass windows. Bob Pilling, Billl' Arrison and Ben', Parish now joined us. HBob was a regular gold brick as we could keep on using the same birds for him until they wore out. Ben Parish, too, promptly distinguished himself by selling the club a first-class, almost new stove for 322, and borrowing a bag of coal for us from a nearby yard. That stove was a great success as an ornament, but it took about a cord of wood to start it and after it got started it smoked so no one could stay in the club, house. But that was not the worst of it. Ben insisted that it would be all right after it had gotten warmed up and so he religiously lighted the wretched thing every time we had a shoot. So we would all sit shivering out on the porch, while Ben, half stifled by the smoke inside, wrestled with that misguided stove. 'Bent' was always hopeful, but somehow we never could see any improvement in it. Perhaps it never got thoroughly warmed up. 198 On the strength of that bargain sale of Ben's we elected hin1 business manager and promoted Win to secretary. Victory now began to sniile on us, as We defeated Harvard by the score of 231 to 206, and twice defeated Lehigh. At the Intercollegiates in the spring we made a fair showing, winning third place by defeating Princeton. Oley Paul sprang a surprise by winning the individual championship cup by a score of 28 out of a possible 30. But our Senior year with Walter Singer as president was the banner year. We opened it by a glorious victory-over Harvard by the score of 140 to 134. The match was shot in Boston on the morning ofthe disastrous foot ball game and we won the unique distinction of being the only team to uphold Penn's honor that day. The next week in the Intercollegiates at Princeton the scores Were: Yale IOS, University of Pennsylva- nia and Harvard 107, Princeton 98. Our individual scores Were: Paul 26, Singer 24, Steel 21, Parish 19, Neilson 17. The next big match was held on the roof of Madison Square Garden in New York. Here we won a,hundred-dollar Parker gun offered by Recreationf, The scores were: University of Pennsylvania 198, Princeton 1885 University of Pennsylvania, second teani, 181, Columbia I45. Our individual scores were: Neilson 47, Paul 45, Parish 37, Singer 36, Cooper 33. The feature of the match was the shooting of Neilson, who broke 47 out ofa possible 50 targets. Other victories this year were over Lehigh University, and the Clearview, Norristown and Florists' gun clubs. 199 iw Cvu' OPF T:-ne. EARTH X Z4-j rf. LH-lcon,-, HOW'9 SAN F COURSE we have ?2 LL. known all along how it hap- EI' pened. It is for the benefit of the misinformed and -.5 deluded public,whom --Q our becoming modesty has erewhile left in ignorance, that these unwonted disclosures are A now published in the printed archives of our history. On the afternoon of February 16th, Professor Hynson's class in public speaking assembled in full numbers for the Hrst time during the year. The destruction of the battleship Maine had at last broken the monotony of our desultory afternoon speeches, and to-day the intermittent eloquence of Ward-rooter Dillon, the phlegmatic philosophy which characterized our conservative leader, Clark, and the eagle flights of Parry's silver-tongued oratory were to nnd vent in the pregnant issues of the preceding day's disaster. In the excitement of the moment Peirce forgot to slip out after being marked present, While Hemphill threatened to join the class. Hynson indulged himself in the flattering thought that his merit had at last begun to be appreciated, and he smiled the complacent smile of conscious virtue. The hour Waned, while eloquence and enthusiasm Waxed warm and Warmer, and When, with uplifted hand, With head bobbing atune to the shrill Crescendo of his quavering voice, Parry pronounced in a patriotic 200 outburst, which bore conviction, for 'C war and bloody war in the cause of humanity and right,H the class could stand it no longer, the class policy was crystalized then and there, and Spain was irremediably in for it. As the Dean wouldn't let Hemphill join our class for the Discussion of Critical Problems of Current Interest, as Hynson was pleased to term it-the Dean said that, judging from his cuts, Bee was already taking more hours than he could attend-he was propitiated and his honest zeal rewarded by being appointed diplomatic agent. It was thought best to communicate with McKinley relative to our action on the main subject, and to conceal our own identity under the governmental conduct of the prospected war. Accordingly Hemphill opened communication. So well did he fuliill his mission that by the middle of April Mac announced himself ready to start the game, and Hemphill was rewarded for his diplomacy with the Class Presidency. Foreseeing the cinch Spain would be for us, only the most desperate cases were allowed to avail themselves of the faculty's agreement to pass all patriots in the coming Uexamsf' Naturally, Hemphill left immediately, joining the Sixth Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry, Morice and Pete Overlield going up with Battery A to Mount Gretna at the same time. Frankland and Peirce, whose cuts had now reached the limit, yielded to Dillon's patriotic appeals, they, swelling the ranks of examination jumpers, mustered in on the rolls of the First and Second Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry, respectively. Dave Fleming determined tp consecrate his ability to handle trots and ponies -for which he had long enjoyed the admiration of his classmates-to the common cause and entered the Sixth Cavalry. Nelson, whose desire had long been the growing of a full beard, recognizing his opportunity for hirsute aggrandizement in the unconventionality of camp life, threw in his lot with the Second Regiment. We had now contributed to the cavalry, artillery and infantry forces, and when, after braving the exams, Ruegenberg and Reynolds enlisted for no other reason than sheer patriotism, further enlistment was prohibited for fear lest the feeling become contagious. In order not to discourage Spain at the outset, and thus make the war a farce, we agreed with Mac to hold our righting force in reserve and let the less experienced troops get at the Spaniards first. Those of us who did not enlist composed the secret military advisory board on which, as you all know, McKinley so much depended. Accordingly Ruegenberg, Morice and Overheld, taking with them Battery A, were dis- patched to Newport News, Hemphill and Reynolds conducted the Sixth Pennsylvania to Camp Algerg Frank- ltnd was to spend the summer at Chattanooga, and Dave Fleming in the swamps of Fernandina. The Second Pennsylvania, to which Nelson and Peirce were now such essentials, was given the post of duty, being chosen to guard the DuPont powder mills, whose preservation against the swarms of Spanish spies with which Delaware and New Jersey were infested, was of such importance to the conduct of the war. ' 201 Thanks to the military acumen of our advisory board, Mac managed to get some good work out of the raw troops at the front. Rus Alger's blunders, however, constantly rendered our plans abortive, and with this drawback the date of Spain's ultimate defeat was made a matter of problematic uncertainty. As the summer was now waning, and the war was only intended as a pastime during the college vacation, we decided to take an active part in the campaign and bring the war to a speedy close. For this purpose our football trio, with its battery, was dispatched to Porto Rico, the rest of the ,QQ contingent being held in readi- ness to supplement their efforts should circumstances so demand. This, however, was too much for Spain. Heretofore, with Alger between our advisory board and the righting line, she had had little enough show, but now for us to actively take part in the war was more than Spain could bear. Peace was sued for, and on the twelfth of August the protocol was signed. Cessation of hostilities followed and the war was virtually ended. Of the individual fortunes of our war heroes, you may all some day read, when they get hard up and write for the magazines. Frankland, I understand, is at present writing an article on The Sobriety of Camp Lifef' including a thrilling account of the manoeuvres in which he received a wound from a bayonet's falling from the tent pole. A description of the fierce engagement at Newport News in which Ruegenberg narrowly escaped the toils of matrimony, is best heard from the hero's own lips. Space and decorum preclude its insertion here. Dave Fleming's periodic attacks of paralysis attendant upon his visits to the regimental canteen deserve mention, as few appreciate the severe hardships this young patriot endured. The tale of -' Billy Morice's woes and of how he lost his hair, is fraught with a pathos too deep to dwell upon. In fact, all our heroes had some sort of close shave during the summer's outing-if we except Nelson, who succeeded to his heart's desire, and returned to us with a beard and mustache of brilliant color and luxuriant growth. The experiences of Hemphill and Peirce, who thought the pen mightier than the sword, are fully given in their joint work, A Tangle of Red Tape, or A Mixed-up Account of Army Clerkingf' Several unauthenticated rumors have been circulated, among which one is to the effect that Bean was connected with the army. As no such name appears upon the rolls of enlisted men, though there is a men- tion of a citizen clerk by that name, we can not justly claim him as one of our fighting force. There is :mother of our reputed warriors whom I must by no means overlook, for no n1an in the class can rival Lucas in the communication of inside revelations of army life, embellished with thrilling touches of characteristic veracity. The story is rife among his classmates that Lucas was with a more or less visionary regiment of New jersey volunteers, encamped at a certain seashore resort. The story proceeds that Lucas was with the regiment for over two weeks, when upon finding a shell on the neighboring beach, he became panic stricken, made up a dummy to fill his place in the tent and fled to parts unknown. It is reported that the authorities 202 never discovered tl1e ruse till camp was broken, when attempts to rouse the figure revealed the nature of the supposed constitutionally resting Lucas. These facts, however, have never been authenticated, and as this history deals with the unquestioned truth alone, I can only refer you to Lucas himself, whose reticence on army matters, strange to say, has been very marked of late. And now having taken you into our confidence, showing how we initiated, conducted, and concluded the war, let us smile with commiseration upon the inadequate war sketches with which our reputed heroes have flooded current literature for filthy lucre. 203 l 4:LL'j,?,- o 'lui R-1.-vslmkrcaw. 99 ifbl'-- - HILO is as old as the hills and almost as respec- table. At least so her members claim as they point with pride to the grand assortment of celebrities that she registers among her has- beens-lawyers, physicians, clergymen and Langstroths of world-wide reputation. Philo's early history is lost in oblivion, even Pon1p's knowledge on the subject is limited to the fact that she was organized by a crowd of salubrious cranks befo' I come here. Philots realm consists of one half of that portion of College Hall that is situated between the Chapel and the roof. She is bounded on the west by Zelo, on the North by the North wind, on the East by a birdls- eye view of the Chemical Laboratory, and on the South by the odors of the dissecting room. These, however, are but physical limitations, Philo knows no mental bounds. Every Friday at the 72th p. m. hour, Philo opens her portals to the select few who happen to be oiiicers in the society or are desirous of attending a suliicient number of meetings to be eligible for office at the next election. Once in a great while this latter aggregation swells the number to the amount necessary for a quorum. On such occasions Philo goes up against her so-called literary exercises, which consist principally of debates upon the live questions of the day and the dead ones of the day before. With equal 204 The Philomathean Society fervor are discussed the prospects of an alliance with England or a debate with Zelo. Occasionally some member, more fearless than the rest, undertakes to read with great dignity an essay, one of those literary offences that even Arthur Hobson Quinn has refused to accept because of its utter lack of originalityf' These exercises are followed by a business meeting, in which everybody quotes Roberts' Rules of Order and acts upon his own rules of disorder. As a rule, actions speak louder than words. At last, at the eleventh hour, every one but Langstroth Qthere is always a Langstroth in Philoj becomes convinced that nothing is being accomplished, and is ready to listen. At the same hour, as misfortune will have it, the electriclights are turned off from below. A committee of one is appointed by the Moderator to light the candles. Having accomplished this, the committee of one, being the sole remaining occupant of the room, decides that there is no quorum present, blows out the light, and adjourns. But Philo does not always have to struggle for a quorum. Not far from here can be found by diligent search, an exact reproduction of a meeting at which even Hemphill was present. His presence, however, can readily be accounted for by the fact that this was a special meeting and was not held in the hall of the society. Hemphill's excuse for his chronic absence is that he has some sort of heart trouble and has been forbidden by his physician to climb up so many flights of stairs at one time, and this is borne out by the evidence of Professor Cheyney, who has a room on the floor below Philo and delivers lectures, which, it is rumored, are supposed to be included in He1nphill's course. Three times a year Philo elects officers-that is to say, she gives an oiiice to each man who is eligible, and then decides by ballot who are most eligible of the ineligible in order to fill the remaining vacancies. Philo is modest and unassuming, she does not like to show her abilities outside of her own walls. Once a year, however, she overcomes her bashfulness sufficiently to come down into Chapel to trounce Zelo in debate. This event is open to the public-the public consisting of two or three members of the Faculty present as judges. But the time when Philo spreads herself is at her Commencement, when she deals out diplomas to the loyal sons who have attended the requisite number of meetings. Everybody is invited to be present on this occasion except the Latin profs, who are omitted as a favor to the man who is it for the delivery of the Latin salutatory. At the close of this ordeal a feed is brought forth, and everybody has a good time but the committee in charge, which has borrowed the silver and is responsible for it. Such were the ancient and honorable customs of Philo before Harry Mingle came to Pennsylvania. Since that time there have sprung up in Philo other customs, less ancient of course-aye, and many of them less honorable, too. For instance, it was not until Harry assumed control of Philo that the conservative 207 element was sufficiently squelched to allow Jim Riddle to lead Kellam and Folz up against a new proposition -the Loganian Society of Haverford. The noteworthy thing about this debate was not the defeat of Philo's team, nor the absence of the silver-tongued Wesley, it was the fact that some sixteen people were present, exclusive of Harry Mingle, Morton Boice, the judges, and the teams. This, however, was not the fault of Philo, for the audience consisted almost entirely of relatives of the members of the Loganian team, either invited or compelled by them to be present. Harry Mingle, though the greatest of Ninety-nine's additions to Philo, was by no means the hrst. This honor is claimed by Mort Boice, though rumor has it that Mort was looked upon as an annual contribu- tion from the Freshman class long years before Ninety-nine ever heard of Philo. Upon this ground it is that Win Neilson lays claim to being the first real Ninety 'nine man in Philo. Lack of space prevents our entering here into the respective merits of these claims. Following Neilson came the tow-headed Hodge, the silver-tongued Wesley and the lady-like James. Then came a series of poets, Hemphill, Frazier and Mitchell. By this time Ninety-nine had Philo well in hand. jim Harrar was taken in because everybody knew him, Leon Dix because Ueverybody ought to know him, and Harry Mingle, because, luckily for him, nobody knew him. And so, by the end of Freshman year, Ninety-nine, having acquired in Coates the only good man that Ninety-eight ever possessed, virtually owned Philo, but refrained from asserting its ownership merely out of respect QD for Burt Easton and the Langstroth aggregation. The disturbing element introduced by Ninety- nine in Freshman year through Hodge, Frazier and Mitchell, increased throughout Sophomore and Junior years in various anarchistic forms of Fred Clark, Milt Loeb, Rawle Brown and Billy Arrison, until in Senior year it culminated in the initiation of the socialist, Bond, who insisted upon reforming everything in the society from the Moderator up. In spite of the added dignity and conservatism of Stewart and Sautter, Philo went steadily from bad to worse, electing as Moderator, first Milt Loeb, then Mort Boice, and finally Harry Mingle. This last action so completely disgusted Bond, who, it is said, was after the job himself, that he was never again seen in Philo Hall: he had learned the meaning of that ancient saying, so Well known among us, You do the dirty by Philo, and Philo will do the dirty by you. Peace, sweet peace, then reigned among us, Peace, sweet peace, is reigning still. We sons in Ninety-nine love dear old Philo, old-fashioned and eccentric as she is. We would not have her otherwise, much as we have tried to make her so. May we but prove worthy of her I 208 The Zelosophic Society A W? 1 cn aladigllf EIRD and mysterious as the name zelo- sophic sounds to the uninitiated, to those QQ, who have been admitted within the con- fines of the society it has a far dihferent signitication. It suggests memories of work and pleasure, friendly intercourse, and many a feast of reason and flow of soul. Of course we are referring to the period after Ninety-nine had wrested control from Ninety-eight. As soon as our supremacy was established we kindled the wrath of Solis and Ives by revising the constitution which they had artfully framed to perpetuate themselves and friends in control. That was only a preliminary. We found the treasury to consist of a collection of debts which we proceeded to pay, and by the following commencement we had a balance on hand, notwithstanding the fact that we bestowed money with no sparing hand upon our many receptions, smokers, etc., for which we soon became famous. There were undoubtedly difficulties connected with these little affairs of ours-difhculties such as driving tacks with a gavel, opening tin cans with silver knives, borrowing decorations, and doing without supper in order that Zelo and her friends might be royally entertained. But there was pleasure in it too, and remarks were often made which caused ns to wonder where Chauncey Depew got his training, if not in Zelo. For example, when a Freshman sent after flowers returned with greens, What the dickens have you got there ? asked Pugh Knot Chauncey DJ. Nothing but leaves, as Adam said when he saw Eve's first polo- naise, exclaimed Clarke, and in the ensuing excitement the Freshman escaped. When we were Freshmen we were usually to be found grouped near the door, admiring the thunder- ing bellicose speaker, and wondering if we would ever -, but the dream seemed too grand for realization. Immediately opposite to us sat the senior members with dignified assurance and little cash to back it up. They dozed, and applauded, and seconded motions, and occasionally told us how poorly we were doing con- sidering the few obstacles and hindrances we had to contend against-j ust as senior members have always done. We have introduced changes, however, for after securing suliicient members to make Zelo a respectable society, every man was required to take part in the program. For a critic we elected a man who could box and wrestle, and consequently wasn't afraid of any one. Koch was the man, and while during his report he made use of the most glittering generalities, when he found an offender alone, the latter soon became aware of his every fault, and no doubt profited by the knowledge, for we learn by our mistakes and failures as well as by precept and example. The Centennial Commissioners donated to the society various objects from the art collection, which have gradually been misappropriated by the architects until there now remains a single bust, identity unknown, which Tunnell, in the course of an impassioned address, apostrophized as K' My dear sir-or madamf' Around this bust we used to gather, that each man might tell the funniest story he knew. Here it was that Hartwell's genius displayed itself. To look at Harty H you would take him for a prosperous funeral director, and the impression would be strengthened by hearing him talk, but occasionally he would get off a joke in that nonchalant manner of his, which would cause the most sedate of us to yield to spasms of laughter. It is rumored that at his prep H school, a student ordered to get the colic to relieve bow-legs, listened to Hartwell instead and was curedg but the truth of the report has yet to be proved. McMichael and Pugh, being familiar with the Lippincott Alcove, were a serious menace to the morals of the Freshmen, and had it not been for Stern, as an antidote, the story-telling custom would have been abolished much sooner that it was. However, this was hnally accomplished, notwithstanding the strenuous objections of Jimmie Witlirow, our best kicker. James is fond of the ladies, his favorite occupation being to Sit in the gloaming And watch the love light streaming From tender orbs of blue. But Jimmie H wanted a joke to spring if he thought the girl's intentions were serious, and consequently did not want his supply cut off. ' 212 He was not the only objector in the society, for there had to be an opposition-nothing ever amounted to a pair of two-for-five shoe laces without it. In fact, opposition was present even in the Garden of Eden, despite the freedom from worry over fashion, college cuts, full dress, Keely motors, etc. With fierce impetu- osity the anti administration members would attack the treasurer's report, wildly inquiring why that func- tionary did not split postal cards in half and use the backs of stamps, and it was only the soothing words of Nelson that could pacify them and restore peace and harmony in the society. The opposition, however, did not cause as much worry as did the oratoryg it was undamnable-though the listeners, at times, omitted the prefix. Occasionally it seemed as if Parry and Nelson could talk more and say less than all the rest of the members put together, in fact, had they quoted Mother Goose it would have seemed pertinent to the subject, so confidently and fluently could they support the most heterodox heresies. But, while we laugh at their remarkable and abundant flow of language, we must not forget that they were good debaters and that two Zelo men were on Ninety-nine's victorious team. Now, most of the galaxy have gone, peace to their ashes-for they will surely burn. Conndently, dear reader, we inform you that, by the aid of Ignatius Donnelly's cryptogram, we have discovered that Tennyson intended The Brook as a satire on Zelo. The great event of the year in Zelo is Commencement, although in bygone days it was usually attended by two or three profs, with their families, and half a dozen students, with their sisters. A ducking in the fish pond back of the Bi was promised to those members who came to Commencement unaccompa- nied, and consequently those fellows who had sisters whom they could bribe or bully turned out in full force, while the rest stayed away and missed the cast-iron cake and nightmare ice cream. But now much interest is attached to the farewell given by Zelo to her sons.. At that time, when old friendships and associations are severed, it is a matter of congratulation that our men go out, after their four years of literary work, so much better prepared to uphold the honor and reputation of Old Penn, even though it be in the very presence of death. Do we not all know how Colonel Henry Egbert, after recovering from wounds received at San juan, led his regiment to Manila and there finished a life of devotion to his country and his flag, choosing the course of self-sacrifice rather than the life of ease which was always open to him? When war was declared John Nelson and john Scott left us, ready and willing to offer themselves for the cause of humanity. One of them never returned. We know that he met death in a noble cause, but that does not reconcile us to losing our comrade john Scott. To us he was ever genial, earnest, helpful-a constant reproof to idle, useless existence.

It has an editorial board, which de- corates column one of page two, and the work tlte board should do, and fails to do, would curdle pure counfry-pump milk. Ou Sunday the Pcmzsylvanian does not appear, and on that blessed day the suffering undergraduates have a chance to gather strength and courage for the perusal of Monday's paper. No one, not even the editor-in-chief-who simply writes editorials to be read by none but himself-understands how the paper is put together. The Pemzsylwnzkm simply happensl The inactive elements among the elusive editors are a revelation. Elusive editors is a happy phrase, it means that each editor endeavors to out- rival the other in eluding anything resembling work and smothering news. There is about as much news in the PemzsyZwnz'a1z as there is hair on a church steeple, and when a story appears that might savor of news to the uninitiated it is compounded of typographical errors, printers' ink and a hash of names, 214 X -----, .f..:g,33g3gQ-' -f - ,--,N ., . , .f., ,. ,-:yew 1 ' 'XZ I 'f'f : -+1f!':z5 if 4 I- 4, ' J-'55f.,,,.,.Q-11 The P ennsyivanian Board so that the story falls Hat, and an editorial appears next day apologizing for the statement that Pennsyl- vania will meet Wellesley next June on the gridiron, and correcting another error by saying that Cap- tain Hare is nineteen and not ninety-one years old. The fJ6'7Z7Z.Sj!!'Z!ll7lZ-6172 has no policy, no line of steady argument. If the editor-in-chief knows his book he rubber-necks with the Provost, the Deans and the main guys in University circles, and when Washington's Birthday celebration comes around the editor takes his sister-or usually some one else's-to a front seat and gives the board a merry ha! ha! and absorbs tickets, ink, stamps, easy chairs and all the clever things of life. Oh, the Pewz.3v!muz'an is a thing of duty and a joy for-never! On one occasion, away back in the musty past, an editor advanced opinions for the students, contrary to the Facultyis ideas, and there was h-b-r-r-r-the deuce to pay! Since then the sheet has stuck to beer advertisements and archaic editorials beginning We heartily endorse, We congratulate, and The P67Z7Z.Sjl!7JlZ7li6Z7Z is in favorgl' the last mentioned being very doubtful. The Pemzsylwmzkm will be carefully inserted in some one else's locker if you are foolish enough to pay the annual subscription. It can hash the king's English nine thousand ways for Sunday, and the day editor and the printers can so misspell and involve the names of every one and any one connected with the University as to make them mere myths and cause them to carry matriculation or police cards, or refer to the family Bible, to prove their identity. The Pefzmjflwwziafz, with the assistance of the board of editors, is an infallible medium, what it prints may be taken exactly opposite-and you canit go astray. The beauty of the affair is its lack of hurry, there is no bustle or excitement in making the sheet. If the Houston Club elections takes place on Thursday, any time within two weeks will do to announce them. And when the daily papers print something which is of decided interest to the students it is a treat to see the Pefzfzsylvanzkzn appear a week later with double headlines and announce glowingly such-and-such a thing. At 2.30 p. in., Sundays excepted, one of the day editors strolls into the office, picks up a daily paper, reads something about new cinders being placed upon Franklin Field track--and has an inspiration. When one of the youngest victims, or aspirants, for the board of editors strolls in. Mr. Day Editor says: 'K Go see Mr. Geyelin and ask him about these cinders, what they look like, how springy they are, etc.. etc.? The victim takes his departure vaguely, strolls hazily down town, falls in offices, walks and stamps all over pos- sible pieces of newsf' lets news slap him in the face and overlooks it, and stumbles back to the Perm- sylzzanzkuz office tired, Couldnlt get any news, and departs amid a shower of curses. Scissors and paste then come into use and by seven o'clock the day editor has clipped the Bullefin and Telegraph and amassed 2,750 217 or 2,800 words, the editor-in-chief has waded through an editorial, and, with four hundred things to be done, the Avil Printing Company receives a batch of stud' which is almost as unintelligible to the printers as it is to the students next morning. Ninety-nine had just a few to do with the paper, and if the sheet ever improved it certainly did so under her tutelage. Sagendorph and Mechling began early life with the paper, and both became business managers at diferent and unfortunate periods. Saggy cut college friends and ice in general, chasing shoe stores, egg factories, cheese distilleries and rathskellers to get one-inch insertions. Bill Arrison made a horrible blunt' also at assisting them. Then Siegel came on the paper in order to get complimentary tickets for the football games, and Donaldson came on to annoy the board by endeavoring to introduce par- tisan editorials and yellow journalism-so it is said. In the spring of '97 the paper sufered a fatality when jab Brinton became editor-in-chief. Brinton, like most Ninety-eight people, savored of buckwheat and clover-not clever-seed. Brinton and his cohorts knew as much about newspapers as some colleges know about athletic eligibility, and the Pemzsyfvavzzknz was entangled in a haze of erudite editorials on the weather and our atmosphere ten thousand miles away from news. Only one thing worse happened, and that was when Brinton formed an elective committee of one and in close corporation elected Fireplug McGrath his assistant, to write editorials, McGrath, the boy orator and relic of wasted ambition and a lost cause. 1 In 1898 came the greatest combination the editorial board ever brewed. Mechling dropped his business managership and was selected editor-in-chief., Skunk Donaldson was elected managing editor, and the first day that this warm and slim pair took charge the fJL'7Z7Z5jff'Z!!Z7'ZZ'6Z7Z came out with a smiling countenance- and a few more mistakes. Donaldson soon left the sheet and it still went on improving-quite naturally. Ambruster took a whack at assisting Mechling. By the way, it must not be forgotten that Rowland Morgan was managing editor under Brinton, and managed to keep away from the office for months at a time. Howard Hill, Addie Van der Wieleii, Bill Muller, and a host of others in Ninety-nine, were on the board of editors at one time or other. In all seriousness, Ninety-nine did more than her share toward making the Pmmjflvavziafz successful in the face of more discouragements, hnancially and otherwise, than most college papers have to meet. 218 The Red and Blue Board E F.F .L r-ical. 1 -S BL E I ly 5'- 'f 4 n jx -. fi-ff gi X,-Z f Q f T is an old custom that no Freshman can be elected to the RED AND BLUE, but when ,QQ entered college, Arthur Brooke felt so overjoyed at the sight of so much good material that he could scarcely restrain his eagerness until the prescribed year had elapsed. As soon as second term was over, he imrnediately began a correspondence with our leading literary men. Now, Brooke Wrote very persuasively and his words were sweeter than honey. As a result he soon had a number of contributions from ,QQ. A poem CPD from Stahlneckerg a very pathetic account of the Children's Country Week Charity from Bean, who had derived considerable benefit therefrom the preceding summer 5 and an essay from jones, who had discovered the amazing truth that if you excluded all of Washington Irving's Writings that were nof 221 -1 humorous, those which were left probably were humorous. This seemed to Brooke a very acute criticism, but fearing that it would cause too great a commotion in the college world if sprung too suddenly, he reserved the essay until November in order that he might announce it editorially in the October number. In the meantime there had been a meeting of the Board, and Bean, having been recognized, in spite of his youth, as the most accomplished leg-puller in college, was elected Business Agent, while Stahlnecker was elected a member of the Board. With the November number of ISQ6, therefore, the connection of ,QQ with the RED AND BLUE began. In December jones was elected and in March was given the department of University Lifei'--probably on the principle that since he lived some eighteen miles from the University his writing would have an imaginative quality rare in newspaper work. In April Stahlnecker suddenly discovered his true bent, and, seizing on the national feeling of the moment with that Kiplingesque faculty of his, wrote a Cuban story. In this month also McClellan, having ascertained by trial that a nine thousand word article on Practical Phonographyn to appear in three successive numbers was beyond the comprehension of the editor, began those famous sugared sonnets of his. CN. B.-The first was addressed to Pomp.E Before the end of the year two other ,QQ men had been added to the Board, Clevenger and Hemphill 3 and Bean, having demonstrated that he could outblulf even the printer's devil, had been invested with the dignity of Business Manager. The next ,QQ man to make himself indispensable to the magazine was Walter T. Singer, who was elected soon after college opened in 1897. One night the previous spring he had sat up until midnight read- ing Old Sleuthf' and then feeling the need of something stronger, had 'dnished the spree by drinking in Poe's Tales until morning. Feeling by this time in a sufficiently exalted state of mind, he had set himself to the composition of the story of An Artistic Crime, in which such things as dark-complexioned women, private mad houses, detectives, maniacs, tobacco smoke, and electric bells were introduced with a wonder- fully realistic effect. This story he signed R. E. Retlaw H and sent to McClenthen. Its effect on that individual was almost overwhelming. Poor fellow, he never could stand much of a strain. For the next three months he could do nothing but hunt for R. E. Retlaw, Esq., and when that gentleman was found he was straightway added to the Board. The effort to secure this literary genius had completely exhausted the energies of '98, and after getting out the January number about February 2 3d, McClenthen resigned and Hemphill was elected Senior Editor. As jones had in the meantime been elected Junior Editor the magazine was at last wholly under the control of ,99. Hemphill immediately proceeded to cut the next three weeks in order to devote his individual 222 attention to booming the RED AND BLUE. He succeeded and completely dazzled '98 by bringing out the Feb- ruary and March numbers within a week of each other and so once more getting back to schedule time. The only other occurrences of this period worth mentioning were the election of Mitchell, ,99,S great poet, and the harnessing of Pegasus to the plow, Singer to the exchange department. In March Dix and Lincoln were elected, the latter- of whom proved his ability at once by drawing for the cover ofthe April number so pez'z'z'e and charming a ballet girl that Porter SL Coates sent a special messenger for a large number of extra copies. After getting out this issue Hemphill suddenly felt a patriotic longing for embalmed beef and went off to fight microbes, leaving jones in command in the RED AND BLUE sanctum. The sudden necessity of assuming the entire management of the magazine would have staggered a less optimistic man, but Jones rose to the occasion and by dint of writing exactly one quarter of the May number himself brought it out on time. His next feat was to get the june number out before Class Day, and with that wonderful deed the year appropriately closed. Bean, induced by the liberal terms offered by the Faculty, had gone to war QD-and thus jones was com- pelled to spend most of his summer vacation acting in the combined roles of Senior and Junior Editor and Business Manager. Once more he succeeded in getting out the number on time, but the effort almost proved fatal and he was unable for a long time to leave his bed. In the meantime Hemphill had returned to college and resumed the management, editing with conspicuous success the November issue. His duties as president of ,QQ and collector-in-chief to the college, however, proved too heavyg he resigned, and jones was elected Senior Editor. In the meantime two other ,QQ men had been elected, Churchman and Bond. Of these two men the first was an artist and the latter- well, the less said the better. He was an anarchist and wanted to run things, but couldn't. He was the last ,QQ man elected and being the youngest was spoiled inthe bringing up. A Of the other ,QQ men who have at one time or another contributed to the RED AND BLUE, space prevents mention. The class has always taken a genuine interest in the magazine, and to this fact has been largely due its success in our hands, and we hand it over to 1900 in a more flourishing condition than it has been since it was founded. 223 44 79 ONG years have we labored under the impression that Albert Wilson entered College if with the Class of Fifty-eight, and that one Francis Aristides jackson also put in 'G his appearance sometime in the fifties. Thus far archaeological research has failed 5 -me g to reveal the exact date of Jackson's arrival, but Qthanks to Josh Penniman's E course in Nineteenth Century Poetrylb the Class of Ninety-nine has at last suc- ceeded in determining the fact that Pompf' instead of arriving in the fall of '54, as he claims, must have been well established in his position of Controller of the Faculty as early as 1814. In that year William Wordsworth's Excur- sion developed the fact that- 5-my 4 1 .G s 'ii in 2 4 f , f t fa, f 5 5 ' T ' ' ' ' f gf? E' Q5 s Within the soul a faculty abides, That with interpositions, which would hide And darken, so can deal that they become Contingencies of POMPH' Many years have passed since this was written. Pomp and Philo :have grown old together. Philo, true to her ancient motto, Sic itur ad astra,', has in that ti-me succeeded in attaining the regions of the roof, While Pomp has gradually extended his sway even unto the Provost and Board of Trustees. It is failure to recognize this authority that gets the Freshman into trouble. Pomp has the greatest contempt for the Freshman Class, which is invariably composed of salubrious cranks, many of whom will be knocked into chronic sections at mid-year. He delights in calling them 'down for smoking in the basement and for whistling in the halls. He glories in his delivery of a course of lectures to the verdant, portraying in brilliant colors the terrors of bowl fights, past and future. He loves to prophecy that the har- vest of Freshman flunks will be even richer in June than in january. ' ' Woe unto the Fresh who thinks to slide into Pomp's good graces on a smiling countenance and a condescending intimacy! The Sophomore who is well up in his work may venture occasionally to call him Pomp, but the Freshman must address him as, 'K Albert if he desires an answer conveying information. 224 U Pomp The Junior may buttonhole him, the Senior may take the liberty of resting a hand upon his shoulder, but Senior, Junior, Soph and Fresh-all must keep his authority constantly in mind and treat him with a respect becoming his dignity. Most of Pomp's dealings are with the Sophomore class, which constantly conflicts with his authority by claiming ownership of both Freshmen and Faculty. It is hard indeed for the Sophomore, who is trying his best to give the Freshmen a red-hot Welcome, to realize that Pomp is anything more than the messenger of the Dean, who desires to see Mr. So-and-so. Like all Sophs, Billy McClellan had this idea when he wrote for the Rez! and Blue a little over two years ago: TO OUR MERCURY. O favored scion of a race obscure, Dread messenger of Iovefs unchanging will, To dark Plutonian doom conducting sure The conscience-stricken shades condemned of illg How oft the drinkers at Pieria's rill Suspend their peaceful pastimes in affright, As to each heart thy footstep sends a thrill, Bearing the fateful list their hopes to blight! Or when as guardian of the temple gates Before those portals wide thou tak'st thy stand To keep intruders from the inner shrine, Upon thy word the crowd obedient waits, As stayed Rome's ancient nobles on the hand Of that renowned chief whose famous name is thine. Socially, Pomp has no use for any but Seniors. They alone dare approach to intimacy with him. Pomp has even been known to invite members of that class to go on a jag with him, but has never been known to appear at the time and place appointed for the jollilication. Pomp is seldom seen outside of College Hall. No one knows Where he lives or how he gets from College Hall to his home without being seen. Each year, at Christmas time, he disappears from among us upon his vacation and reappears as suddenly some days later, with thrilling tales of a glorious time spent in painting New York a brilliant Vermilion. 227 Among the many things for which Pomp expresses a strong antipathy the camera figures promi- nently. Although often attempted by previous classes, it was left for Ninety-nine to succeed, through its enormous pull with Mr. Wilsoii, in having in its RECORD a photographic reproduction of his familiar features, clothed in dignity and authority. Pomp never forgets a name or face. Since his career at Penn began every man who has been con- nected vvith the College, for no matter how short a time, is indelibly impressed upon his memory. Nor can any one who has ever entered Penn's portals during Pomp's administration fail to recall that old familiar face. Then here's to Pompf' the epitome of loyalty to Penn! May We, spurred on by his noble example, ever prove as faithful to our Alma Mater!

Finding the details of his new duty too burdensome for him, Mumford procured an assistant named Plank, who immediately began to amass a vast, independent fortune as a result of inspection of tack-holes il if-I' ' 'l k ', fmmmwuwlmwmw -2' D- , 1 'mg W JJ 'l Il lx?

Plank is commander of a small army of janitors, whose principal duty, so far as any one has been able to learn, is to entertain the scrub-ladies that Work on the third and fourth floors, by standing on the first story landings and engaging them in conversation. 8 a. m.-H Good mornin', Mrs. O'Brien I How's your sister-in-law feelin' these days P H Oh, shels enjoyin' right good health now, thank you, Mr. Tait, etc., ad iryifzilzmz. Having learned the state of health of every member of Mrs. O'Brien's family and circle of acquaint- ances, Mr. Tait passes on to the next house, in order to ascertain whether Mrs. Sullivan is partial to pork and beans, and just what Mrs. O'Neil thinks of Plank. Trivial as such a conversation may seem to the uninitiated, it is not so to the scrub ladyg to her it seems a master-stroke of diplomacy, for thereby a crowd of sleepy, swearing students are startled from their slumbers and gotten out of their rooms, and she is thus enabled to complete her daily toil an hour or so earlier than she would otherwise. While the scrub-lady is disarranging rooms and making the halls resound with the rattle of keys and the singing of hymns, the janitorial force goes about its other duties. Chief of these, in Winter, is to supply the students with wood-three green sticks, two laths and a chair leg for twenty-ive cents. In Spring the janitor's time is largely taken up in carrying cases ofbeer to the rooms of the poor unfortunates, who, owing to the approaching ordeal of iinal examinations, have to compromise their nightly calls upon Mr. Eagan and get down to work. - Beneath the janitors, and yet above Iackson's boy in dignity and authority, is Robert, the mail-carrier, a lad of manly bearing, who walks on his heels and looks ever ready to fall over backward. His duty it is to see that bills and love-letters reach their proper owners, to receive without a murmur the curses that invariably follow the delivery of the former, and to refuse Qin accordance with Mumford's ordersb or at least hesitate to accept, the proffered reward for the delivery of the latteri Occasionally he favors us with a note from Cotteral, stating that our mail service is due, or one from the Dean requesting us to call at the office and explain the cause of our excessive Chapel absences. Cotteral is the tall, pensive man who holds down the Dormitory ofhce. His one and only duty is to receive complaints, and he does it to perfection. Crawford, the first incumbent, was far too easy to be a successg he would receive complaints in a most gentlemanly manner, but would invariably commit the unpardonable blunder of forwarding them to Mumford. Harvey, who followed Crawford, would argue for hours over the injustice of the complaint, but would in the end back down and agree with every word the complainer uttered. But Cotteral-Cotteral is the ideal man for the place. When a student walks into the Dormitory oiiice with a complaining frown upon his brow, Cotteral merely steals a sidewise glance up from 252 his desk and goes right on with his usual occupation of throwing graceful Spencerian ink-marks into the pad before him. After mature deliberation, he rises, sticks his pen behind his ear, clears his throat, blinks like a bull-frog and asks in his slow, sad way, What can I do for you P He listens to the tale of woe with a most interested expression upon his face, even going so far as to volunteer occasional words of sympathy. Five minutes after the conference is over Cotteral has forgotten all about it, it is his duty to do so, for that saves Mumford a lot of trouble. Such are the men who constitute the Dormitories' day force. Efficient as they are, the whole bunch together is not worth one-half as much as the night force, which consists of but one man, the Captainf' A jolly good fellow is the L' Captain. He always has a pleasant word for everybody-a hearty :'Good evening, Mr. Kendall, for the man who gets in before the hour of midnight, and an equally hearty Good morning, Mr. Ruhe, for the man who gets in after that hour, on the stroke of twelve from the College clock the Captainls evening ends and his morning begins. After noting the various degrees of sobriety attached to incomers between the hours of twelve and ive, the Captain passes around to see that all is well with them. He lends a helping hand to those who have been foolish enough to drink, as Artenias Ward says, with impunity or with anybody who invites them. Then, after arousing a few industrious students, who wish to get in an hour's hard work before breakfast, his vigil is over and he is relieved by the fatsfaced janitor with a bad eye. An hour later the scrub-ladies arrive, then ensues the Babel already described, to which the profanity of the drowsy students adds a tone, which gives to th.e whole a melody like unto the constant chatter of monkeys in a cocoanut grove. A Order, or rather disorder, in the Dorinitories is in the hands of a Board of Representatives, which consists of one man from each house. The important thing in selecting a representative is to find a man who is very seldom at home, never studies and does not care whether or not it is quiet enough for others to study- in short, a man who will overlook all violations of the Dormitories' XIII Commandments and has no scruples against entering into a jollification himself when occasion demands. Among the men contributed by Ninety-nine to the Board of Representatives were Chuck Harrison, Paul Hagy, Harry Mingle, Hen Coates and Pete Overheld, in all of whom these characteristics are . prominent. Bee Hemphill was once awarded the honor by the Class of ,557 House, but, with his usual keen interest in law and order, he never learned of his election until, after the board had met ive times without him, he was requested to resign, upon the ground that he evidently did not appreciate the honor which his fellow students had conferred upon him. His successor, Pete Siegel, was elected because he was so small. Since every man in the house could lick him, there was but little danger of his ever attempting to enforce the 233 rules and regulations. As a matter of fact Pete would rather break than make rules, and suspicion is not wanting that he, as President of the Architectural Society, was largely responsible for the celebration en robe de azzzif which took place on the second of May, 1899. No other Ninety-nine man was ever foolish enough to accept the office Qand troublesD of a Representative, although Ambruster and Pugh certainly possessed all the natural gifts that would entitle a man to that honor. They, like Rawle Brown and Sain Rumford, preferred to keep out of Dormitory politics, so as to be able to make life miserable for the poor unfortunates who did hold office. One of their most proficient assistants in this undertaking was a lad of sporting proclivities, possessed of a fondness for loud clothes, he hailed from Doylestown, and answered to the name of judas Iscariot Shellenberger. His room was a favorite retreat for those who professed a fondness for the drama, the Faculty and the painted pasteboards. Jim Harrar, who occupied the room below Jude in House E, claims that he was a great linguist, being able to con- verse fluently in three languages-poker, the stage and Gibbons-and that about midnight he often talked to himselfin a dialect of English which was absolutely unfit for a religious man to hear. But the star performers of the Dorinitories were not-all Ninetyeuine men. One of the best known in the bunch was a Dental student, the genial Horace Beck. Horace seemed to have just one object in life-to arouse enthusiasm. He was always in the lead at a football demonstration, and was always sure to be on hand when the gang gathered under the Arcade to sing in the evenings, Then, when 'lKeeley burst forth from House H, Beckie's sonorous voice could be heard above the crowd calling for a song entitled, There's a drunken man over there. Keeley was an Uexpayriencef' He was in the glass-bottle business, that is to say, he and Mr. Eagan had reduced purchase and sale to the primitive method of barter. It was at one time rumored that, in order to satisfy this unholy capacity for malt, vinous and spiritous liquors and admixtures and decoctions of the same, Keeley had paperedhis room with pawn-tickets. The only evidence in support of this rumor was that within a week after Keeley's departure Plank appeared in a new suit of clothes. But we are drifting now into what Pomp calls antidotesf' We dislike antidotesj, partly because they are so infernally personal and partly because we dare not tell our best ones for fear that our heroes might become suddenly inspired with a desire to K' 'spoil H us. So let us, dear reader, recall for ourselves those little games and t tea-parties wherein magna pays j94i,', and say with Virgil: Forsan ez' lzaec olim meminisse ju11abiz'. 234 four Years in Chapel I -' by p ' HE title, kind reader, is somewhat of a misnomer, as it does not signify anything like four years in the State Legislature, or even a term in the Eastern Penitentiary. On Q . P the other hand, it merely refers to the time we have spent in chapel during our four I -af. XJ . years' course in college-fifteen minutes a day, ive days in the week, thirty weeks in . V, Y I the year. But here again, such is the difficulty of our subject, we are liable to cause f error, for it is only worldly-minded persons like Bossert, Goddard 8.1 Co. who are to 'J L- J- be found present at every chapel exercise, the rest of us only attend when the spirit moves us, or when the professor in whose society we pass the post-chapel hour is sure to call the chapel roll. However, we have all been in chapel at some time or other during our college career. Toni Peirce, judging from the small number ofhis chapel cuts, hasbeen the most regular attendant, while even such disreputable characters as Judas Iscariot Shellenberger have been known to lose their way in College Hall and get into chapel by pure accident. V Freshman year we sat opposite the faculty, that is, when the faculty representatives were present, for the way in which some of the members of that august body are wont to overrun the limit of chapel cuts is astounding and distressing. Jackson and Rennert have always been regular attendants, while Easton and Gibbons have not infrequently dropped in to help out in the singing. Bates, before his trip to Greece, used to join us, modestly seating himself on the back row of the Senior seats, but since his return from the Isles of Greece, where burning Sappho loved and sung, -see Gibbons-we have missed him. Can it be that he has been discouraged by the group of co-eds who now occupy that back row? But we are digressing. Yes, Freshman year we faced the faculty, marveled at the grandeur of the organ and the sweet voices of the choir, listened intently to the words of the chaplains, read the Pe7z1zsyZw1zz'an, and plotted death and destruc- tion to the Sophomores. In those days we did have chaplains, but after two years they gave us up as a bad lot and turned us over to josh Penniman, who in the role of dominie is undoubtedly a howling success. Few people know the true reason for the shifting of the reading desk from the door to the choir side of the chapel. The explanation is simple. You see, Tommy Donaldson was the prima donna in the choir, and when Josh took charge of the chapel exercises he felt that he ought to be near ' Tommy, so 255 that in case he got into difficulty he could consult the latter. Now there were two ways of accomplishing his purpose, the one being to move the organ to the reading desk, the other to move the reading desk to the organ. After mature deliberation it was decided that the simplest plan was to move the reading desk. Q. E. D. This little transformation took place at the beginning of our junior year. Naturally we now looked down upon the various pranks of Sophomores and Freshmen, and with cold and relentless looks reproved them for what we ourselves had done-and better, more uproariously than they. And when at last we sat upon the Senior seats and saw the juniors following in our footsteps, did we approve? Nay, rather, we looked upon them with unutterable scorn, and thought them bold indeed to do as we had done. But such has always been the way with upper classmen, and will be until upper classmen are no more. Many notable events have taken place in chapel during our short career. There was the occasion upon which Lord Kelvin addressed us and mistook the choir for the faculty, Tom Donaldson for the provost. Hall Caine has cracked Manx jokes for us, and Paul Leicester Ford has advised us all to become novelists, foris not a good novel like a good brand of whiskey-always in demand? And are not novelist and millionaire H synonymous terms? No less a person than Mr. W. VV. Fisher, 19oo College, deigned to address us Sophomore year on the subject, Wliy I said' Hurray for '98 Med.' yesterday. CN. B.-It was the day after we had been beaten in football by the Meds in the hnal game for the University charnpionshipj The committee who secured Mr. Fisher's services were Messrs. Ambruster and Morice, and it is needless to say that he spoke to an appreciative audience. Yes, we have heard many fine speeches in chapel, but few of them could compare to that of Senator Parry, which was made in connection with his nomination of Pete H Overfield as the college candidate for president of the Houston Club. Even Professor McMaster's 'oration on the subject of Imperialism vs. Expansion was not equal to Parry's effort. In fact, I may say Cthird of Ames, pp. I, 2, 3, 4, etc.j, that for stirring oratory, replete with apt figures of speech and thrilling anecdotes, the Senator 'l stands without a peer. And now the chapel bell will ring for us no more. There will be other classmen who will flock into that dimly lighted room at the same old hour-as we have done--or who will stand around the hall and talk, and take a cut--as we have done. But as for us, our cuts are at an end. 236 Che Library INETY--NINE .would preface her remarks upon this indispensable department of the University by desiring that at the outset it be understood that the term library H is a mere convention- ality, a stereotyped name employed for convenience in reference. The word, as applied to the subject in hand, has about as much significance as the name of A1nerica's great modern naval hero when attached to the latest perpetration of the cigarette dealer or the hygienic-food manufacturer. Library, according to Woi'cester's Dictionary, is a building containing a collection of books, but library as used at Old Penn must always be understood to signify simply a place in which to assemble for conversation. No matter by whom, or upon what topic or occasion-simply unlimited, unqualified conversation. In the olden times there were, it is true, those who for unknown reasons considered it necessary to keep up an appearance ofdevotion to the dictionary ideal. In fact, as Freshmen our innocent souls were often sorely puzzled to decide whether the Librarian made more noise in breaking up our quiet groups, or in wel- coming his own friends and visitors to the sanctum behind the desk. But at any rate, since he made as good use of theirecognized purpose of the institution as we did, we felt a sort of moral support in assuming that his protests against our chats were merely formal. SJ we simply re-arranged ourselves in other parts of the room, and resumed our subject where we had left it off. A As Freshmen we assembled in modest groups, always in sight of the clock, to talk over Livy and alge- bra, and compare theories as to what it could all mean. In the Sophomore year our budding self-confidence was often turned to groans of mutual condolence and maledictions upon Gage and Richter. The following year, as our conversations became more matter-of-fact and gradually assumed the gravity of the philosophic junior, we noticed that our prerogative was becoming officially recognized in the evident attempts at improve- ment for tl1e greater convenience of our conferences. But when as lordly Seniors we returned to our domain, behold still further accommodations. A glass partition now separated, on the one side, magazines, curiosities and clock, and on the other, rows of adjoin- ing desks iitted with incandescent lights, inviting us to do even our studying side by side. The gates of the alcoves were thrown wide open, and their shelves filled with gaudy volumes in French and German. The largely increased force of assistants seemed by their example to encourage us to be sociable-what else, indeed, could be their razlwn d'ez'7'e ? The only ones who apparently had not beneiited by the alterations were the Aztec 237 idols from Yucatan, who now stand in their loneliness on the clock-side of the partition. So!iz'ua'z'rzem facizmf, param appellamf' no doubt was their silent comment on the behavior ofthe authorities. Above all, there had arisen another Librarian, whose ardent and constant devotion to his labors allowed him no time to preserve the ancient custom ofthe ww wre protest. He therefore appeased its shade by con- fining its dominion to the alcoves in the form of a number of printed requests that silence be observed - an injunction at which we are sure not even a howling dervish could take offence. SO we conversed in calm content. A One thing, however, as departing Seniors we feel we ought to enter our protest against. It is the dangerous devotion to books that has lately manifested itself among some frequenters of the Library. The dedication of the institution to our time-honored custom is daily being violated. Nay, so rapidly and vigor- ously is this pernicious love of literature growing that complaints are heard on all sides that the Faculty can- not keep their treasures intact, that the books frequently disappear from their places, and seldom return. This, of course, must lead to the purchase of fresh supplies of books from time to time, and to a still larger circulation. Eventually students may even consider it more convenient to read the books on the spot than to take the trouble of carrying them away, and so the Library will degenerate into a mere reading-room, and those jovial gatherings of our college days will be forever a thing of the past. This should certainly be pre- vented, and to that end Ninety-nine here offers a few suggestions which may be useful to the authorities in arresting the downward tendency. 1. No books should be left in the alcoves except such as are written in the Semitic tongues or in Russian, and possibly Guden1an's Latin Literature. 2. All other books, and especially those prescribed for extra reading in the courses in English, should be removed to the south end of the building and placed under lock and key, and a rule should be made, and strictly enforced, that no student' may have one of these books unless he can ind it in the card-catalogue. 3. Large posters should be conspicuously displayed inviting conversation and discussion upon inter- esting topics connected with University life. CThe Street Railway Advertising Company could doubtless be induced to supply some original ideas in the poster line at a moderate rate.j 4. A course of familiar lectures on athletics in their various seasons by prominent student athletes should be arranged to take place in the Library at least twice a week, and each lecture should be followed by a general discussion of the subject. By these means, and such others as may commend themselves to the authorities, the Library would, we feel sure, be confined to its primary purpose, and the dangerous love of books be checked. 238 Che Ladies H OW curious! you say as your eye falls upon the title, Why should the RECORD contain an article on the ladies? Let me explain. An article like the present one is inserted for one of two purposes: either for novelty or for padding. Padding! Heavens, what am I saying! A row of angry faces appears before me-faces as of co-eds, typewriters, assistant librarians, and cataloguers. I see their cholers rising, and, behold, they are armed with divers weapons, bones of -little dogs and pussy cats, ink, mucilage, shears and musty volumes. Ah no, this article is not inserted as padding. There really should be three articles, one written by Magee, the class authority on librarians and the like, one by Walter Singer on the subject of typewritersg and one by Fox, who has devoted himself to the study of the co-eds. Then, as a fitting climax, Tommy Donaldson should write an ode or a Coon song. Thus would the fair ones be appeased. Under the circumstances, however, we will do what we can. Read on, oh reader, our tale of woe begins. When Adolph Van der Wielen attempted to ogle one of the librarians he little thought that the eyes of a Freshman were upon him. Ah me, how times are changed. In those days Vandy did not display that captivating moustache of his, but nevertheless we thought that a man with nerve like his must surely be a Senior, and yet the other day when we saw Bob Pilling and Walter Singer dancing up and down the hall of the third iioor, impatiently waiting till Professor -1 should exit homo so that they might have words with his fair typewriter, we thought, forsooth, that they must be Freshmen. I-Iowbeit, We looked upon them in pity and not in anger, for it is hard for a man to work all day with never a smile from a fair one, and Professor McMaster smiles but once a year. In Freshman year a wild rumor came floating through the College halls, a rumor to the effect that there were co-eds U in the Biological Department. Immediately we fled to Fox for information and advice, but the Foxwas silent and the rumors remained but rumors. Still it is said that the Bi is known for its co-eds, the fox for its cunning, and that this particular Fox has acquired the mysterious title of The Lover. And so, putting two and two together, we come to the conclusion that we have been basely deceived. Days, weeks, months passed away with scarce the sight of a fair one to cheer us. A dreary time it was, though we tried our best to disguise our feeling of loneliness and despair. The next year, however, we were joined by a dark eyed fairy, Miss-but pshaw! what's the use of mentioning names, you all know her. 239 She was a Biological co-ed, but altogether too K'speedy for Fox, and so it happened that she was frequently seen around College Hall, bringing fresh life and hope to the members of the Class of Ninety-nine. It was not till junior year that our eyes were blessed with the sight of that dusky beauty who soon enslaved the hearts of those well known lady-killers, Peirce and Magee. The rest of us did not have a show all we could do was to look on and wonder. If the aforesaid Peirce and Magee had taken out a book for every five minutes they spent at the desk in the Library during junior and Senior years, it is not exaggeration to say that there is not a book in the Library-ancient or modern--which would not have passed through their hands. However, the reign of the enchantress was not a long one. She vanished--but meantirnea wondrous change had come over the Library, and now, from behind close-curtained quarters, there occasionally emerged damsels of all varieties under the sun-tall and short, thin and thick, blonde and brunette. Do you wonder, then, that our hearts were lightened and that we could now work in peace and comfort? This is but one of the many advances that the University has made in the last few years. During this period, too, that fair one previously mentioned, she who makes sweet melody upon the typewriter, appeared on the scene. Ah, you who have not taken European History 3.-- A study of the organization of society in early England, and the economic changes and social developments since. Prescribed for Seniors in Arts and Science in the History-English, Philosophy-History and Economics-History groups -little do you know what it is to have an angel in the house, or next door. And as the hour slowly passed away while the western sun was setting, while Reds Humphreys dreamed of what he wouldn't do during vacation, and while the professor talked of by-gone days and customs, then would come to our ears those continuous and musical clickings which made us aware of the fact that we were still in the land of the living, and 11ot in the thirteenth century. Lately a few other fair charmers have come to our assistance, particularly that little dark-eyed houri who descends from the realms above to occupy a seat in Chapel every morning at ten. But, andit grieves us much to say it, the one department in which we feel that the University should be credited with a deficiency is the Ladies' department. Even demure and pious members of the class like Amos Rusie Goddard and Charlie Clarke have felt this deficiency, and so been led to bring their steadies out to College just to cheer things up a bit. Yet what says the poet? Take the gifts the gods provide theef' So here's to the Ladies, God bless them ! i 240 THE PRESS G G ,f- f K Umvm vw 'mms WMM W QWXMQ A VHEHHSD CREW6 V ,xglu-v04AMgm,f X ff SEE TH N Emmf Fi H1 ff.
