N This Shamrock dates the existence of his career from August 31, 1883, in the littletown of Burnside, Pa. Cwing to the thermie conditions which sur- rounded him during the first decade and a half of his life, Curley was often found with the shepherds in the far off hills surrounding that vicinity, probably prompted to frequent these rendezvouses by the motives of David Thoreau--our greatest nature poet, or perhaps endowed by the incentive of Moses, but did not go forth and expound his great lessons, as did the prophet, but retained them in a dormant state until later in life they fo-und prestige with our Class poet. Curley'f now entered the great School of Experience on the Lake Erie Trotting Circuit, and after familiarizing himself with all phases of the work necessary to obtain the prestige of Official Trainer, which he followed for some time, and, realizing wherein he was handicapped, decided to seek the profession of unlimited promise, thence to gPhiladelphia did he come in search of a Vet- erinary School. Curley, not being acclimated to academic conditions, sought a private tutor to explain the chemical actions of the anions and cations. All went well until this witty youth found he was not associating with a 'fShamrock,', but, alas, with a I-, from which he requested immediate departure. Curley has proven himself to be a persistent student, and through his horsemanship soon became acquainted on the hill, where his piesgnaeexvyjasealwftys welcomed by the gang. Soon after his arrival in the city he joiiieitkplie Qetieriiiary Medical Society and held the position as one of the Executive Gputmittee, and those of us who know Curley's aptitude for surgery know that his will have nd trouble in his profession through life.

From his robust appearance and rapid growth, Owen was soon capable of entering the research work of Animal Industry, first finding himself pailing cows on his fathers farm, and as time passed by and Owen became quite plethoric he was next enlisted as a York County sod buster. His preliniinary education was begun at the Red Lion High School, from which he was graduated in 1908. The following fall Owen niade his lirst appear- ance at the Veterinary School of the University of Pennsylvania. Not long after he became a ineniber of the Veterinary Medical Society, and to niany of us his blushino' appearance is always appreciated shortly after S A.

Martin Eerng Qbuiglrg Give me the liberty to know, to utter, and to argue freely, above all liberties. To purposely amuse the imagination of the readers here would be an injustice to the character, for surely among those to whom the class owes a debt of gratitude, it is to the ministration of lack, who was born in Newcomerstown, Qhio, May 7, l884. lack received his early education at the Ohio Northern University at Ada, and later at Valparaiso University, which thoroughly equipped him for a pro- fessorship in the New Philadelphia public school, with which he was connected for two years. For some time after his entrance to our Class he, as well as Others, was but little noticed until, by the powers of his own intellect, keenness of thought, and severity of tongue, made an indelible impression upon the members of his classg for, regardless of criticism, this modern Demosthenes was sure to express his opinion. I-lis nature is stern, simple and enduring, well fitted to wrestle with college and life difficulties. - The support of kindly virtues, apparently, found an unfavorable media in his heart, and yet should we trouble ourselves to penetrate through that proud stoicism and habitual tactiturnity which lock up his character from casual obser- vation, we should find him linked to his fellow man by more of those sympathies and affections than are usually ascribed to him. p lack was an active member of the Veterinary Medical Society, and created considerable enthusiasm by asking questions on 'subjects on which he 'himself was thoroughly familiar. X - if judging from his ability asia ,.., student, Iaekfscfuture success is assured. - H --xr 4 -- . 7.7-v' . ---f',,,g1-,-5. , H - . ' Lag ?T1 V' ,- -if. r
