William a ham 6 Extracts from Minutes of the Board of Trustees on the Death of William Thaw. K. THAW was richly endowed with varied and remarkable gifts. I le possessed unusual powers of discernment, sound judgment and rare executive ability, which enabled him to prosecute with phenomenal success the various enterprises in which he engaged, and n ample means, as well as a high and honorable position in the business community, lie was by nature generous: and this inherent disposition, sanctioned by Divine Grace, made him keenly alive to the appeals of the suffering and the unfortunate. In his daily experience he found it more blessed to give than to receive. Realizing that wealth was a trust committed to him by his Creator. his life was characterized by the most liberal and wide-spread philanthropy. Rverv enterprise calculated to advance the interests of religion, to elevate and purify human society, to widen and improve the sphere of human knowledge, to relieve the unfortunate, or to mitigate suffering, found in him an energetic and munificent benefactor. From the time he became a trustee of the University, more than twenty-eight years ago, until the day of his death, he was constantly active and liberal in promoting its welfare. Amid his many cares and anxieties, and the ceaseless demands upon his time and attention, he was seldom absent from our meetings. To the University he gave freely of his lime, of his thought, and of his means; and it is only just to say that but for his earnest efforts, his wise counsel, his unfailing liberality, it would not have attained its present prosperity, or have the bright prospects of future usefulness now opening hopefully before it. In the death of William Thaw our country has lost an honorable and patriotic citizen; our community an honorable, enterprising and useful member; our religious and charitable institutions an interested, unfailing and generous friend; the University a wise counselor and liberal supporter; and the cause of science one of its most zealous and unselfish benefactors. 7 T is the happy experience of most American colleges to have, at some time in their history, some man who nurtures and loves them with such devotion as to make his memory beautiful for all time. In the history of Western University of Pennsylvania, William Thaw was one of these men. In 11X64 he was one of the largest contributors to the $20,000 endowment of the chair of Natural Sciences, but for years previously he and Josiah King had provided the annual salary. In 1875 lie gave to permanent endowment $100,000. To the )bservatory he gave $30,000. In his will he bequeathed to the University another $100,000. Me contributed other sums from time to time. The writer has not at hand the data which show the exact aggregate, but it is doubtless as much as $400,000. 'The money, large as it was—in that day vastly larger than the same sum would be today—was not. as the record shows, the largest of his gifts; for his anxious thought, his tender solicitude and devotion, his loyal and unwavering affection, were worth even more than the money. As the University enters upon a new period in its history, we ardently hope and confidently expect that both love and gifts will be lavished upon it without stint, in emulation of the worthy example set by this man. to whose memory this volume is dedicated. Chanckllor S. L .

Wuxi am Thaw. A great man, not only as a philanthropist in the largest sense of that word, but one whose whole life was characterized by that love of truth, which prompted him to noble deeds in behalf of advanced scientific research, and in developing a knowledge of the good and beautiful in nature, lie shall always live in our memory. The monuments he has left behind him have been hewn from the quarries of solid truths—truths that shall live when monuments of granite have crumbled into dust: aye, until the stars themselves have faded, and the new dawn has been ushered in. 8 John Ai.prkd Urashkar. f JOHN ALFRED BRASHEAR, Sc.D., LL.D.

AT THE LAYING OF THE CORNERSTONE OF THE NEW OBSERVATORY, OCTOBER 20. 1906 HE story of the old Allegheny observatory is replete with interest not only to the astronomer, but to the good people of Pittsburgh and Allegheny. For are we not proud of its history, proud of its achievement in the domain of science, proud of the men who have ich to advance our knowledge of the beautiful science of astronomy? For discoveries of momentous interest in solar, stellar and planetary physics have l een made within the walls of the dear old building on Observatory Mill, and to-day the discoveries made there give us a standing in the scientific world second to none. 1 lave we not also a pardonable pride in that noble corps of men who a little more than forty years since planned and budded the old observatory? Budded better than they knew, for forty years ago little was known of the new astronomy in the field in which so much has been sown and reaped at the old institution. On the evening of February 15. 1859, three citizens of this city and Pittsburgh met at the office of Professor Bradley to consider the purchase of a telescope, “the magnifying power of which would bring the heavenly bodies near enough to be viewed with greater interest and satisfaction. These three citizens were Professor Lewis Bradley, Josiah King and Harvey Childs. After some conversation upon the subject it was decided to recp.iest other gentlemen to meet with them. The next meeting was held on the evening of Washington’s birthday. February 22, 1859. At this meeting, “after further conversation, it was proposed to place the telescope upon a housetop in the central part of Allegheny. The committee on site had some negotiations with the city with reference to a location on Seminary Hill, a lease of which was offered to the association for an annual rental of sixty dollars per year, but about this time Mr. Ferguson and Mr. McClintock offered free of cost a large part of the plot of ground on which the observatory now stands, and an additional piece was purchased from Mr. Ashworth. making in all a tract of over ten acres, on what was then perhaps as fine a location for an observatory as could lx found near the city, as the prevailing winds carried the smoke away from it. thus insuring good observations in its earlier history. So successful was the association in raising funds for the projiosed observatory that it was decided to purchase a 13-inch telescope instead of an 8-inch, as originally proposed, and on motion of Mr. Wiliiam Thaw it was decided to instruct a committee to make arrangements for the purchase of an instrument from Mr. Fit , of New York, who had only a short time before completed a similar instrument for the Dudley observatory at Albany, New York. The complete organization of the association did not take place until May 15, i860, when the constitution and by-laws were rejxirted and adopted and a board of directors elected. The members constituting the lxiard were: Hon. Thomas M. Howe, l)r. C. C. Hussey, Mr. W illiam Thaw, Mr. Josiah King and Mr. John II. Shoenberger. Dr. C. (I. Hussey was elected president of the board and Mr. James Park, Jr., secretary. The act of incorix ration by the legislature of Pennsylvania was approved by (iov. Packer, on the 22 l day of March, i860. 1'he observatory was completed and the telescope erected between the first of November, i860, and the end of January. 1861. On Tuesday evening. November 17. 1863. Prof. Philotus Dean was elected director of the observatory for one year, 'flic records do not show any important observations or discoveries made up to this time, indeed it is presumed that the telescope was used almost entirely for observations of the moon and planets by the members of the association. The first director of the observatory served without any salary, save that he was furnished with a dwelling house free of rent. On the 10th of May, 1867. a meeting was held of the stockholders of the Allegheny Astronomical Association, as it is now called, to consider its transfer to the 11 trustees of the Western University of Pennsylvania. The association had incurred an indebtedness of about $12,000 and they recognized that to carry it on in the interests of education and the advancement of science a fund must Ik- raised to pay the debt, and also raise a fund to endow a chair of astronomy in the university. It was therefore proposed to raise the sum of $30,000. bv which this desirable end should be attained. The future usefulness of the observatory seemed to lx fully recognized by the Ix ard at that time, as the minutes of this date are filled with expressions of ho|ie and prophecy regarding both the university and the observatory. A large majority of stockholders and contributors voted to convey their interests in the Observatory to the University, with the proviso that they were to be credited with the amount they had subscribed, and provided further that they should have the privileges formerly accorded them of making occasional use of the instruments, and provided still further that an endowment fund lx raised and the property forever be held for observatory purposes. The Astronomical Association through its officers conveyed the observatory to the Western University on the first day of July, 1867. The records of this transfer cover many pages of the minute books of the Western University, and lxar testimony to the care with which the transfer was made. On the 8th of August, 1867, Professor S. 1 . Langley was unanimously elected to the chair of Astronomy and Physics. At this meeting it was resolved to equip the observatory with a transit instrument, chronograph. cl x ks. etc. The duties of the Professor of Astronomy were also decided ii|x n, in which it was to teach the classes in astronomy and physics in the university, duties from which he was afterwards entirely released. At a meeting held June 8. 1869, it was decided to change the name of the Allegheny Observatory to The Observatory of the Western University of Pennsylvania. but at the meeting of the board on the 4th of October of the same year the motion to change the name was rescinded, and the old name retained. Subscriptions to the endowment fund and paying off the debt amounted at this period to the sum of $15,000. subscribed by Dr. Hussey. Hon. Thomas M. Howe. Mr. William Thaw, Thomas A. Clark, Thomas Fawcett, Christopher Zug. ( has. Knapp. James 15. Lyon. Mr. Hostetter. Mr. Smith and General Cass. This fund covered the indebtedness of the Astronomical Association, leaving a balance of $3,000 toward the endowment fund, thus requiring $17,000 to complete the endowment of $20,000. This amount, so far as 1 have been able to find out. was contributed by Mr. Thaw, who a few years afterwards also contributed $100,000 to the University Fund. It was stipulated by Mr. Thaw that the director of tiie observatory should be free from teaching in the university, except to deliver lectures at his convenience and thus lx free to carry on original research. From this time onward the institution t x k its place among the working observatories of the world. It would lx impossible within the limits of this paper to tell you more than a moiety of the splendid observations and discoveries made by Professor Langley and his able assistants. The long series of solar observations, for which this region is so well suited, gave to the world new views of the sun and its surroundings: and the series of magnificent drawings of sun sjxns made by Professors Langley. Frost. Keeler and Mr. Very are now considered classic and invaluable in our studies of solar phenomena. SAMUEL PIERPONT LANGLEY Director of the Allegheny Observatory, 1867-1887. By John Alfred Brashear. The man of grand impulses sheds a lustre on all around him. GREAT man lias gone to his rest. A life filled with the highest aspirations has closed and we are left to mourn the loss of one whose place will Ik difficult to fill. The writer was associated with Professor Langley for more than thirty years, and in all those years lie has only pleasant recollections of his personality and his magnificent intellect—one never satisfied with a half-proven hypothesis, hut always reaching out for final proof before he announced any of his great discoveries. Not every man who came in contact with Professor Langley knew him as the writer knew him. Many times he has walked for miles with him. During the walk nothing would escape his mouth hut monosyllables. Was he cold, indifferent, callous to the questioner? Far from it. Some difficult, perhaps intricate problem in solar physics or other correlated study had taken possession of his mind to the exclusion of all else, and 1 have often thought that his yes” or no” to my questions were almost of an automatic character. But how different at other times, during our walks from the old observatory to the nearest woods, where now is erected the new Astronomical ()bservatory. Charming was his conversation from the beginning to the end of our stroll. W hen in this mood no man could be more entertaining and instructive than Professor x3 Langley—indeed, some of the most delightful remembrances of my long association with him come to me as I recall these delightful walks and talks. When he was writing his New Astronomy, he would invite me to come to the observaton in the evening and read to me a chapter of that splendid book. 1 call to mind the closing paragraphs of two that impressed me greatly, as he read them, and for fear that 1 may not quote verbatim I refer to his chapter on the Moon where, in closing his charming description of its scenery, he says, ‘‘Let us leave here the desolation about us, happy that we can come back at will to that world, our own familiar dwelling, where the meadows are still green and the birds still sing, and where, better yet, still dwells our own kind—surely the world of all we have found in our wanderings, which we would have chosen to lx? our home. Let me also quote the closing paragraph of his chapter on the Stars, which 1 heard him read “in the long ago , a beautiful illustration of the life history of man as compared to that of the Stars: “I have read somewhere a story about a race of ephemeral insects who live alxnit an hour. To those who are born in the early morning the sunrise is the time of youth. They die of old age while his beams arc yet gathering force, and only their descendants live on to midday; while it is another race which sees the sun decline, from that which saw him rise. Imagine the sun about to set. and the whole nation of mites gathered under the shadow of some mushroom (to them, ancient as the sun itself) to hear what their wisest philosopher has to say of the gloomy prospect. If I remember aright, he first told them that, incredible as it might seem, there was not only a time in the world’s youth when the mushroom itself was young, but that the sun in those early ages was in the eastern, not in the western sky. Since then, he explained, the eyes of scientific ephemera had followed it. and established by induction from vast experience the great i iw of Nature’, that it moved only westward: and he showed that since it was now nearing the western horizon, science itself pointed to the conclusion that it was about to disappear forever, together with the great race of ephemera for whom it was created. What his hearers thought of this discourse I do not remember, hut I have heard that the sun rose again the next morning. Professor Langley was a lover of children. I have heard it from many friends whose homes he visited, how he would gather the little ones around him and tell them fairy stories, many of which he would improvise with wonderful tact to please the children. A Washington lady had made several attempts to converse with Professor Langley—at receptions—upon his scientific investigations but, failing to get the response desired, in her despair she asked him one evening what he did like to talk about. He quickly replied, “Children and fairy stories. The writer of this brief sketch of Professor Langley’s life feels totally inadequate to the task, but deems it a great pleasure to place on record some of the lovely traits of character on the side of the humanities, separate and distinct from his scientific work—for with all that apparent ‘‘calmest coldness there was something 14 r reaching almost to the transcendental in his inner life which my long acquaintance and association brought to light. 1 have given but a few instances of these pleasant reminiscences, instances which could lx multiplied many times. Professor I anglcy came by invitation to the Allegheny Observatory in 1.867. Two years afterwards, in 1869, he introduced standard time distribution to the cities and railroads. Professor Langley made good use of the income derived from the time service, for the commencement of that long series of solar researches which have added so much to our knowledge of the sun. I le was an exquisite draughtsman, as can lx testified by the hundreds of beautiful drawings of solar phenomena made by him. Kvcrv student of astronomy has seen reproductions of his charming drawing of the great sun-spot of December. 1873, which has indeed become classic as a “typical sun-spot. Fortunately for Professor Langley's great work of the future, William Thaw, the staunch friend of the observatory and one of the pioneers in its construction and equipment, became deeply interested in the director's solar work, and aided him in many ways. The income of the observatory was so limited that little could be done in experimental research until William Thaw with a most liberal hand and heart provided the means for carrying on this great work, and you will find at the close of almost every monograph written bv Professor Langley. “This research was made possible through the liberality of a citizen of Pittsburgh.” By Mr. Thaw's request his name was never mentioned. In his studies in the domain of solar physics. Professor Langley was early impressed with the idea that much of the radiant energy from the sun was not recognized by the instruments then in use, and after a long series of experiments, discovered and developed that marvelously delicate instrument, the bolometer. With the bolometer a series of investigations were commenced upon the sun. moon and stars, which were continued for many years, bringing to light some of the most important facts in the whole realm of astronomical physics. Professor Langley, with his assistants. Professor Keeler. Professor Very, and Mr. Page, continued the study of the hitherto unknown region of solar radiation until the holographic chart, reaching far down into the spectrum, and showing almost innumerable curves of selective absorption, was given to the world as a most valuable contribution to our knowledge of radiant energy. After years of study at Allegheny upon the problem of selective absorption of the earth's atmosphere at the lower levels. Professor Langley desired to make a similar investigation at a very high altitude. The top of Mt. Whitney in southern California was selected, as well as a station about two miles below the peak. William Thaw provided most of the means for the now famous expedition, our own government also sharing in the expenses of the research. Professor Keeler and Dr. William Day assisted Professor Langley in the work of this expedition, the results of which have now become classic; indeed, have to a large degree settled the problem of the selective absorption of the earth’s atmosphere in its relation to the 5 sun’s radiant energy, and the intimately correlated problem of life upon our globe. Professor I-angley found time to study many minor though important questions bearing upon radiant energy, not alone from the sun but from other sources. His studies of the moon’s temperature added immensely to our knowledge of the “lesser light that rules the night. With the spectrobolometer, the highest temperature of the moon was found to be about zero centigrade, and the lowest temperature not far from the temperature of space. Professor Langley’s work in mapping the invisible spectrum was a herculean task. Aided by Professors Keeler. Very and Page, thousands of measurements were made with the sjiectrobolometer and read visually before the photographic method was devised and developed so beautifully by Professor Langley and his coworkers at the Smithsonian Institute. Professor I angley received many honors during his life time. To Ik called as the successor of Professor Baird as secretary of the Smithsonian Institution was the highest gift in a scientific sense that could Ik conferred u| n him by his country. Oxford conferred uix n him the degree of I). C. L.; Cambridge, the degree of I). Sc.: Harvard, Princeton. L’niversity of Michigan and the University of Wisconsin conferred u|X)ii him the degree of LL.I). 1 le was a corres|xmdent of the French Academy, a Foreign Member of the Royal Society, a Fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society and other scientific associations. He received the Henry Draper. Count Rumford. Janssen and other medals for his splendid discoveries. Professor Langley was born in Roxbury. Mass.. August 22, 1834. On the twenty-second of November. 1905, he suffered a slight stroke of paralysis but recovered sufficiently to be taken to Aiken. South Carolina, (ireat Iiojk-s were entertained that his recovery was only a matter of time, but it was not so to be. He passed away to the “Summer Land of Song on the 27th day of February. 1906. 11 is Ixxly was brought to Washington and the funeral services held in All Souls Church. The venerable Kdward Fvcrett Hale, an old time friend of Professor Langley, spoke most fitting and kindly words at the brief services, 'flu regents of the Smithsonian Institution acted as honorary pall-bearers, and the members of the Smithsonian staff as active pall-lx arers. lie remains were taken to Boston in a private car. and were laid away in Forest I fills Cemetery by the side of his mother. A short address was delivered at the cemetery by his friend. Alexander Graham Bell, in which he gave a brief resume of Professor I Quigley’s life work. When Napoleon stcxxl at the edge of a great battlefield where a great victory had been won by his soldiers, his ears were deaf to the cries of the wounded and dying; he heard them not, but said to his generals, in the ccstacy of victory: “C’est magnifique . When our own Langley stcxxl on the summit of the old Allegheny hills where so much of his life work had lxen done, and watched the sun setting in all his glory, we heard him exclaim, It is magnificent ”. Now that lie is gone, and we 16 look over the fields of science where he has won his grand but bloodless victories, we can but add our final tribute by repeating the words, “It is magnificent’ . J'ROKKSSOR I. A XCI.KYS l-'I.YINC MACH INK. (Professor Langley began his work on flying-machines while director of the Allegheny Observatory. There are said to Ik some remains of his machinery in the cellar of the old building. So we claim some of the honor of the final results and feel an interest in them. 11 is honor is ours.—Editor.) (From the American Magazine, April, 1907—Herbert X. Casson.) Then came a great American who lifted the whole matter (of flying) to a higher level—S. I . Langley. Langley stood at the head of the Smithsonian Institution. lie was officially and by merit one of the most eminent scientists of the world, lie was spangled with medals and honors. Vet he staked all his prestige on the chance of succeeding where Maxim and Ader had failed. l he master passion of Langley's life was to fly. While playing in a meadow near Poston one day, he saw high overhead a soaring hawk, hovering and gliding in smooth circles through the upper air. The boy Langley was fascinated. How glorious, he thought, to Ik a bird! And forty years later the scientist Langley was still under the spell of that feathered wizard of the sky. 1 le began the most thorough and scientific study of birds that had ever been undertaken, it had been stated by Sir Isaac Xewton, and generally believed, that a large bird required relatively more energy than a small one. Langley found that this was absurdly untrue. A condor, for instance, has only one-fourth as much wing per pound as a little screech-owl. A flamingo has one-third as much as a raven, l he two extremes of the bird world, in fact, are the big. lazy albatross, who soars easily on 3,000 mile journeys, and the tiny humming-bird, whose small body is a throbbing dynamo of energy. The one is all sail like a four-masted schooner; the other is all engine, like a gasoline launch. Then Langley went to the museums and studied the pterodactyl—the greatest of all flying machines. As a flying-machine, this gigantic bat. with its twenty-foot wings, was Nature's masterpiece. At the pterodactyl Nature stop|X d and man must begin. Vet this air-king, so Langley found, had onh one-twentieth of a horsepower to drive his thirty pound body against the wind. With these facts to encourage him. Langley proceeded to make an artificial pterodactyl. And so it came to pass, several months later, that a gray-haired scientist stood on the banks of the Potomac and saw his steel-and-canvas bird rise high in the air and fly for a mile with as much ease as though it were a living creature, flic machine was one-fourth the linear dimension of the larger machine afterwards built and was driven by a onc-and-a-half horsepower engine. This flight was the first ever made by a real flying-machine and it proved that human flight is possible. 17 Then the t S. War Department accepted Langley’s invitation, and came into the flying business. At a cost of $50,000. a large machine was built on the same lines as the small one, and Langley believed that the dream of his boyhood was about to come true. Hut in some way the big machine was not launched properly. It never had a chance to fly. Down it went into the waters of the Potomac. The Aerodrome was not demolished but is practically in complete condition for flight, except in the lack of suitable supporting surfaces. Charles M. Manly, who was Professor Langley's chief assistant, is expecting very soon to find the time to provide the machine with such surfaces and give it a fair trial, when he believes it will prove successful and crown Mr. Langley's work with the success which it so richly deserves. A laugh went around the world at ‘'Langley’s holly.'' and not long afterward the great pathfinder died of a broken heart. The ridicule had no effect upon his beliefs. I le knew that others would complete what he and Maxim and Ader had begun. Ilis last word, written just before his death, was a prophecy of success. ' The great universal highway overhead,” he said, “is now soon to be opened.” PROF. JAMES EDWARD KEELER DIRECTOR (1891-1898) From address by Dr. John A. Brashcar X MAY, 1891, Prof. Keeler was unanimously elected to the directorship of the Allegheny ()bservatory, a position he at once accepted. W hen Prof. Keeler came to Allegheny he found the observatory poorly equipped for the line of investigation he desired to pursue as a continuation of his work at Lick Observatory, but friends of the institution and Prof. Keeler soon furnished the means. Mrs. William Thaw contributed the money to construct a spectroscope of the highest type, which was designed by Pro. Keeler. Mr. Willianj Thaw. Jr., supplied the means for a new driving clock and the remounting of the 13-inch equatorial, while the Junta Club of Pittsburgh generously donated a sum sufficient to place a modern shutter on the dome. Thus equipped, Prof. Keeler commenced a seris of researches by which, in the years he was with us. some of the most brilliant discoveries ever made in astronomical science were added to those he had already given to the world. ()f the 62 papers he contributed to various scientific journals during his directorate perhaps the most important ones are those which we have numbered 120 and 121 in the transactions of the observatory. Xo. 120 refers to his spectroscopic study of the constitution of Saturn's rings; Xo. 121 a paper on a spectroscopic pr K)f of the meteoric constitution of Saturn’s rings. 1 lad he made no other discovery than this solution of the character of Saturn's rings, his name would forever lx remembered in the annals of scientific discovery, for the mathematicians, 18 physicists and astronomers of centuries had labored in vain to solve the problem, which, with his keen intellect, his methods of precision, his marvelous ability to make his instrumental equipment do his bidding enabled him to solve the mystery and establish the theory of Doppler on a still more secure foundation. It would he impossible, in the limits of this paper, to tell you of the splendid achievements in the domain of astro-physics of our departed friend, for since this new temple of the skies began to rise from its foundation his spirit has taken its flight to dwell among the stars he loved so fondly. Socially, Mr. Keeler was h most charming man, and as a scientific investigator he was of the highest type, ever ready, ever willing to help the earnest student over the rough ways that here and there lay before him. Thousands of our people have enjoyed his Thursday night receptions at the observatory, and he was one of the first to suggest that if we should have a new observatory, one department should be erected that should be forever free to the people, so that they. t(x� , might enjoy the beauties of the skies. Professor Keeler was elected director of the Lick Observatory in the spring of 1898. lie did not wish, to leave us; social and scientific associations, ties of friendship bound him to us closely and had we succeeded in raising a fund large enough to build a new observatory 011 this beautiful si ot. which had been secured long before he left us, 1 do not think that even the great attractions of that ideal observatory on the summit of Mount Hamilton would have been sufficient to take him from us: hut the breaking out of the Spanish-. merican war and the excitement associated with it prevented for the time being the successful issue of the important enterprise. Notwithstanding all this. Professor Keeler hesitated as long as he could, with courtesy to the Lick trustees, and only accepted the position when the time limit was reached. The two years since his acceptance of the directorate of the great mountain observatory were replete with success, and we lovingly place under this cornerstone a record of the last and one of the most imi ortant discoveries he had yet made; indeed in a recent letter to me he modestly mentioned it as the greatest discovery of his life, namely, that the normal condition of the greater number of nebulae are spirals. , But he has gone from among us leaving a loving companion and two bright children to honor his memory. “Death makes no conquest of the conqueror For now he lives in fame though not in life.” !9 From Address by Dr. Holland at the Laying of the Cornerstone of the New Observatory, October 20, 1900 Today we mark a new era in the history of the observatory. Wc lay to-day the cornerstone of an institution that will wrest from the blue skies knowledge for all. The new observatory will be as far above the old one as the twentieth century will be ahead of the nineteenth in science and invention. When I came to Pittsburgh it was but a small place. It was very thrifty and decidedly religious. It was a manufacturing center, and although there were many who had taste and education for the higher arts, the city in general had no use for it. Ihit I have seen the change. Pittsburgh is rapidly becoming a center of art. of music and of science, and it is becoming known all over the world. It was known before for its industries, now as an educated city, and in a few years it will be ranked among the educated cities of the world. A few weeks ago I was in Malta and met there a British officer. I told him I came from Allegheny. He thought for a moment, scratched his head and said. Oh. yes: I know Allegheny; it has a line observatory—and. by the way. isn't there a town called Pittsburgh near it?” So, you see. the fame of the Allegheny Observatory has spread, and now that we are to have a finer and better one. the world will be brought closer in contact with the little city of Allegheny. THE NEW ALLEGHENY OBSERVATORY l� v Dr. Frank Sciiussixgkk, P� . S., A. M.. Pii.D.. Director. No other country is so well supplied with telescopes as our own. Not only do the largest refracting telescopes look out upon the heavens from American observatories, but the largest reflectors as well have found homes among us. ()f moderate sized instruments we have nearly as many as all the countries of Kurope combined. Many of these smaller instruments are to be found on the college or university campus and are used largely for the puqxjsc of instruction by astrono- 20 mors whose chief concern is education. Thus there are not more than six or seven of our observatories in which our knowledge of matters astronomical is being advanced to any considerable degree. Our own observatory in Rivcrvicw Park will 1)0 completely equipped in a year or so at the most. If by that time means arc forthcoming, as we have every reason to hope, for adequate maintenance, our observatory will be entitled to rank with the best in this country and abroad. The- principal instrument at present in actual use at the new observatory is the Keeler telescope, erected as a memorial to our late director by his many friends in Pittsburgh and Allegheny. I loth its optical and mechanical parts were made by the lira shear Company. It is a reflecting telescope; i. e.. the light from the heavenly body we are examining docs not pass directly through a lens as in the refracting telescope, but is reflected from a silver film deposited on appropriately shaped surfaces of glass discs. The Keeler telescope can be used in several forms. I.ast year it was employed in the so called Newtonian form, the principal advantage of which is in photographing faint surfaces. One of the pieces of work on which the director is engaged is the measurement and discussion, with Mr. Taker's assistance, of photographic plates for the purpose of determining the suitability of this form 21 of telescope for the exact determination of positions. Another form in which tiiis telescope can he used is known as the Cassegrainian. which is particularly adapted to spectroscopic purposes. A fine spectrograph, the gift of Mr. Andrew Mellon, has lately been made by the lira shear Company after designs made by the director and I)r. Curtiss, to he used in connection with the Keeler telescope. 1'hc spectrograph enables us to analyze the light of the stars; to say what they are composed of and what their physical condition is; and particularly, to determine whether they are moving toward or from us and at what speed. The principal work with this spectrograph consists in observing variable stars; that is. those that are fainter at some times than at others, those which alternately approach and recede from us. Many photographs have already been secured and are now lx'ing measured. They can hardly fail to yield results of interest and importance. A large solar sceptroscope. also to lx used with tlx Keeler telescope, was presented to the observatory by the Honorable II. K. Porter. 'I his is not quite complete but it is expected that it will be in operation by July next. The work planned for this instrument includes a determination of the rotation of the sun and a study of sun-spot phenomena. The latter is a field in which much has been sown and but little reaped. In spite of three centuries of investigation we know little of the 22 true character or cause of sun-spots. This problem seems to transcend the jjowers of a single observatory, but it is well worth the concerted attack of many workers. At the west end of the observatory is a fine transit house, the funds for which are donated by the Misses Smith. In it is mounted the transit instrument that stood in tlie old observatory, and our two clocks, used in connection with this instrument. are finely mounted in the main building. These instruments are still doing the work they began nearly forty years ago—providing time to the Pennsylvania railroad, to the two cities and to other subscribers. The observations for this purjiose arc now made bv Mr. Baker. The 4-inch Transit Instrument The 13-inch telescope that was so long the principal instrument in the old observatory and with which Langley and Keeler wrought so well, is now under the southeast dome. It is used at present for the entertainment of visitors. A11 attachment is being made by which the sun’s surface may lx regularly photographed. Under the large dome at the west end of the observatory will lx placed our principal instrument, a refracting telescope of thirty inches aperture, and forty-five feet long. Ibis telescope is being made for us at the Brashear shops and will 23 probabl) Ik completed in the fall of 1908. W ith so large a telescope many lines of work are |M ssiblc. but there is one kind for which it will he unsurpassed—the determination of the distances of the stars. This is a problem which demands solution more prcssingly than any other in sidereal astronomy. While at the Yerkes Observatory the writer was fortunate in lx-ing able to employ a method for this pur|x se that seems to be more accurate than those formerly in use. This work will be taken up with the new telescope as soon as it is put into commission. 1 cannot conclude this brief and inadequate account of our observatory without a word of gratitude to the many friends who have come forward to make it what is it; and particularly to Dr. Prashear, to whose devotion to astronomical science this new observatory is in a sense a monument. This feeling of gratitude and the examples furnished in abundance in the history of the observatory cannot fail to Ik powerful incentives to the present staff of the observatory for the best work that in them lies.

MEDICAL i J. CHRIS LANGE. M.D.. Dean. Professor of the Principles of Medicine and Clinical Medicine. Member of Board of Trustees Graduated at Bellevue Medical College, New York, 1875. Dr. Lange, our worthy dean, has become such a necessity at school that the students are thinking of asking him to give up iiis practice and do nothing but lecture. 11 is lectures are worth going far to hear, and from a student standpoint they are also liked because one need not study a pharmacopoeia to be able to remember his treatment of diseases. He has practically only two drugs in his category. 28 WILLIAM JAMES ASDALE. M.D., Emeritus Professor of Diseases of Women, Medical and Surgical. Secretary of Board of Trustees, 1883-1907. WHITMORE SNIVELY, M.D., Professor of the Practice of Medicine and Clinical Medicine. Board of Trustees. l)r. Snivelv, who has been termed K. I. Bill, i one of our oldest Professors. His clinics in the K. C. are noted, and he gives us many practical points in diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Dr. Snivelv. you hope to see him again in the near future. JAMES CREAR DUNN, M.D., Professor of Materia Medica and Therapeutics and Diseases of the Skin. Vice-President Board of Trustees. Graduated Jefferson Medical College 1871. Dr.. Dunn has not been with us for some time, owing to ill health, but we have not forgotten him. and might say, has two hobbies; one K. I. and the other, taking a crack now and then at pathology. 29 HERMAN W. HECKELMAN, M.D.. Professor of Diseases of the Eye and Ear. Treasurer Board of Trustees. Graduated Jefferson Medical College. Dr. Hcckelman is a well built man with a commanding appearance and a nice white beard, which the boys say resembles the Bundle of His. He is also somewhat of a fighter, and seems to have missed his calling. He should have been a regimental in the German army. THOMAS McKEAN THOMPSON McKENNAN, M.D., Professor of Nervous and Mental Diseases. Board of Trustees. Graduated University of Pennsylvania 1882. Dr. McKennan has quite a knack of recognizing a crazy man when he sees one. That is the reason he comes up the hill once a week to see the senior class. WILLIAM THOMPSON ENGLISH, A.M., M.D., Professor of Physical Diagnosis. Graduated Jefferson Medical College 1871. Dr. English nearly always has a large number of rare cases for his clinics which makes them very interesting. He makes a fine personal appearance and is one of the most popular professors in school. 3° THOMAS L. HAZZARD. B.S., M.D., Professor of Diseases of the Rectum. Graduated University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Hazzard is very ethical and often in his clinics he stands off from the patient, looks down and is heard to exclaim, “Ah soul.” XAVIER O. WERDER, M.D.. Professor of Didactic and Clinical Gynecology. Graduated University of City of New York 1879. Board of Trustees. Dr. Werder’s childlike simplicity and gentle voice has made quite an impression on the minds of our seniors. ELMER BROWN BORLAND, M.D., Professor of Hygiene and Dietetics. Graduated West Penn Medical College 1887. Dr. Borland not only resembles one of our martyred presidents in appearance, but also in his gentle manner. Me begins all his lectures with the introductory, “Gentlewomen and gentlemen. then goes on to explain a complete sanitary system such as we have •tot at school. Wfem THEODORE J. ELTERICH. M.D., Professor of Diseases of Children. Graduated West Penn Medical College 1889. This is our friend Dr. Kite-rich, with the- very pretty pompadour. He is always looking for cranial tabes. Has a gentle way of examining babies, but of course, that is his business. JAMES WITHERSPOON. A.M., M.D., Professor of Descriptive Anatomy. Graduated West Penn Medical College 1895. Dr. Witherspoon could join the six-footers’ club, and would bold a position near the front of their ranks. IIis classes are all conducted very quietly, due. no doubt, to the fact that they are always quizzes. About once a year he says a few words not relating to the subject of anatomy. WILLIAM H. INGRAM. M.D.. M.S.. Professor of Histology, Pathology and Bacteriology. Secretary of the Faculty. Medical Department. Graduated West Penn Medical College 1894. You would probably infer from Dr. Ingram's photo that he is a very stern man. but he is not; you should see him smile. We challenge any one to produce a man who can talk as much and say as little as Dr. Ingram. However, he is an interesting speaker, and if you get a chance get him to tell you of some of his exj ericnces. Let us warn you. though, do not get him started on pathology. 32 ROBERT WRAY STEWART. M.D.. M.R., C.S.. Professor of Principles of Surgery and Clinical Surgery. Graduated Jefferson Medical College 1885. l)r. Stewart has gone on a trip to Europe, and will not lecture to us again this term. He had a way of introducing little anecdotes in his lectures which greatly lightened the students' work and which will always be remembered as bright spots in our college life. 11 is absence is deeply felt by all the students. 7 . JOHN JENKINS BUCHANAN. M.D., Ph.D.. Professor of Principles of Surgery and Clinical Surgery. Graduated University of Pennsylvania 1881. l)r. I Indianan lectures to us twice a week and each time he is through we know we have been going some. It would be quite an advantage to be able to write shorthand and in this way get a breathing spell now and then. W e take this opportunity to thank Dr. 1'u-chanan for the pictures he displays at each lecture. They certainly are a great factor in impressing a subject on the minds of the students. GEORGE NUGENT MONRO. Jr., A.M., Professor of Medical Jurisprudence. Graduated Harvard Law School 1899. Professor Monro is noted for bringing before the class some of the most intricate questions and to which we hope we will never have to give answers in court. 33 THOMAS LAWRENCE DISQUE, M.D., Professor of Genito-Urinary Diseases. Graduated West Penn Medical College 1893. We think it unnecessary to say much about Dr. Disque, for you have probably heard about him from other sources. He has become famous for his “Seven Glass Test.” FREDERICK A. RHODES, M.D., Professor of Physiology and Applied Physiology. Vice-President Medical Faculty. Graduated West Penn Medical College 1900. Last year Dr. Rhodes thought the Juniors hadn’t enough work to keep them busy, so he introduced the study called Applied Physiology, which contains some practical points. At first he had the students take notes from his lectures, but this year lie has undertaken to furnish the notes at the small sum of $1.50 from each student for about 70 pages. We are afraid he will come out short, but he isn’t worrying. WILLIAM JOHN LANGE, M.D., Professor of Practical Anatomy. Graduated West Penn Medical College 1900. Dr. Lange is a chip off the old block, and promises to follow in his father’s footsteps, which is saying a good deal. However, he will have to eat a few loaves of bread and take a few lessons in speech making before he catches up. 34 JOHN EDWIN RIGG, M.D., Professor of Obstetrics. President of Medical Faculty. Graduated College of Physicians and Surgeons 1879. l)r. Rigg is a little old fashioned but lie is an out-and-out gentleman. He teaches us by telling some of his own experiences, but if he ever loses that index finger on his right hand, which is constantly shaking to impress facts, we think he will not be able to teach any more. EDWARD B. HECKEL, A.M., M.D., Associate in Diseases of Eye and Ear. Graduated New York University. Besides being able to teach diseases of the Eye and Ear, l)r. Meckel is capable of delivering a very nice speech, as was evidenced at the College opening services, Oct. 3, 1906. He is also well upon Medical Ethics. -----■ ------- EDWARD M. ILAND, B.S., M.D., Associate in Materia Medica and Therapeutics. Graduated West Penn Medical College 1896. Dr. Hand is filling Dr. Dunn’s chair since the latter has not been teaching, and to say that he goes some is putting it mildly. He has the Edison phonograph beaten forty ways. However, be has a lot of ground to cover and no doubt lie knows best how to cover it. 35 IRWIN J. MOYER. M.D.. Associate in Clinical Medicine. Graduated University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Mover holds his clinics at Mercy Hospital, where the students get many good points from him. CHARLES ORVIS GOULDING. M.D., Associate in Clinical Medicine. Graduated Bellevue Medical College. New York City, 1887. Dr. Colliding conducts his clinics in a quiet mauler at the Mercy Hospital, and they arc instructive. 0, JAMES IRWIN JOHNSTON, M.D., Associate in Clinical Medicine. Graduated University of Pennsylvania 1893. Dr. Johnston holds bedside clinics at Mercy Hospital, which are well attended by the boys. I le is a great admirer of the Case method of diagnosis and follows it closely. He is a pleasant talker. 36 BREESE MORSE DICKINSON. A.B., M.D., Associate in Clinical Medicine. Graduated University of Pennsylvania 1898. Attending Physician to Mercy Hospital. EDWARD E. MAYER. A.M., M.D., Associate in Mental and Nervous Diseases. Graduated University of Pennsylvania 1895. Dr. Mayer visits us just occasionally, but is sure to show up to give the examination. WILLIAM H. WESLEY, M.D.. Ph.G., Demonstrator of Pharmacy. Dr. Wesley is the !•'resides’ delight. He has them recite jaw-breaking Latin names of drugs and their botanical names. You should see Dr. Wesley leading the 1 'reshies upstairs to the laboratory. It reminds von of a shepherd and his flock. 37 JOHN K. STERRETT, M.D., Associate in Diseases of Nose and Throat. Graduated West Penn Medical College 1891. Dr. Sterrett is admired by the boys for his knowledge of his subject and for his quick operations. JOHN C. HIERHOLZER, M.D., Associate in Diseases of Nose and Throat. Graduated Jefferson Medical College 1888. Dr. Ilierholzer is noted among the students for his systematic lectures and his manner of making things clear. JOHN DeVINNE SINGLEY, A.B.. A.M., M.D., Associate Professor Chair of Principles of Surgery and Clinical Surgery. Graduated University of Pennsylvania 1895. Dr. Singley is one of that class of men, the oftener seen the better liked. In the Sophomore year we sort of got tired of continually hearing about tumors. but in our Junior year we enjoy his quizzes; and no doubt in our Senior year we wiil be looking forward to our meetings with him. His clinics at the Pittsburg Hospital are very practical and beneficial. 38 C. S. APGAR, A.B., A.M, M.D., Assistant to Chair of Obstetrics. Graduated University of Pennsylvania 1897. In Or. Apgar we have a quiz-master who seems to he from Missouri, lie makes you show him. He has a peculiar way of asking questions sometimes, e. g.. I am thinking of a point which nobody has mentioned. What is it? Of course, if you study from any other lx ok than William's you will be unable to answer. J. J. SCHILL. B.S., M.D., Assistant to Chair of Materia Medica and Therapeutics. Graduated West Penn Medical College 1904. The boys at first put Dr. Schill down on their record as a sober, tight-mouthed, and tight-minded man from whom they would not derive much benefit. 'I hey have since changed completely around and he has become quite a favorite. The boys like his quizzes and try to give him the best answers they can. PAUL EATON. A.M.. M.D., Assistant Demonstrator of Surgery Upon the Cadaver. Graduated West Penn Medical College 1903. Dr. Eaton is assistant to Dr. Stuart, and in many respects resembles the latter, one of which is his knack of telling stories. He is well liked bv the students. 39 W. H. GLYNN. M.D., Assistant to Chair of Clinical Medicine. Dr. Glynn, alias Willie , is undoubtedly the’ master of the Junior class. He is one of the professors who can hold their attention. His particular work consists of instilling into the minds of the boys the science, art and practice of medicine as not taught by “K. I. Bill . His common expression is, That's right. Doctor. the whole thing in a nutshell . ATCHESON STEWART, M.D., Assistant to Chair of Principles of Surgery and Clinical Surgery. Dr. Stewart is a chip off the uncle and a favorite with the boys. He is now tilling I)r. R. . Stewart's place admirably. RICHARD J. BEHEN, M.D., Assistant to Chairs of Physical Diagnosis and Applied Physiology. Dr. Belien is a popular quiz-master, for the reason that he answers his own questions before the student has a chance to begin. He has a characteristic way of asking questions backward. 40 E. W. MEREDITH. M.D., Assistant to Chair of Principles of Surgery. Graduated Medico Chi 1901. l)r. Meredith quizzes the Junior class in surgery, and is very popular among the students. I Ic takes a hand at lecturing occasionally and does very well. GEORGE A. HOLLIDAY. M.D., Assistant to Chair of Genito-Urinary Diseases. G. C. McMASTER. M.D.. Assistant to Chair of Descriptive Anatomy. 41 IRA CHAPMAN, M.D., Assistant to Chair of Physiology. OTTO CARL GAUB. M.D., Professor of Principles of Surgery. Gradate University of Pennsylvania 1894. Dr. Gaub began this year to lecture on Principles of Surgery and is making good. Me leads us into the microscopical appearance of inflammation and makes us see stars, but brings us back to earth finally with a pretty good idea of the subject. He gets so interested in the lecture that he does not hear the bell at the end of the hour. EMMERT C. STUART. M.D., Demonstrator of Operative Surgery Upon the Cadaver. I)r. Stuart is quite a favorite with the students. He is always dressed up to the height of fashion, and with his few golden locks and go-tec makes a neat appearance in the pit. He is noted for his inexhaustible supply of stories. GEORGE L. HAYS, M.D., Assistant to Chair of Principles of Surgery and Clinical Surgery. Dr. Hays quizzes the Seniors on the surgical clinic cases, and follows Dr. l'uchanan to a T. 42 EDWARD STIEREN, M.D., Associate Professor in Diseases of Eye and Ear. Graduated West Penn Medical College 1896. Dr. Stieren is noted for having a clear eye and a good ear. He practices what lie teaches,—wears glasses. GEORGE C. JOHNSTON, M.D., Clinical Instructor Radiotherapy and Electrophysics. Dr. Johnston electrophies the students with his keen humor and wit. He is also famous for his farewell address on Medical Ethics. JOSEPH W. ASDALE, M.D., Resident Physician Maternity Hospital and House Physician Kaufmann Clinic. Dr. Asdale is god-father of the little ones at the Reineman. 1 ie is also pretty much of a s|x rtsinan, lxnng interested in fishing and hunting. W. A. WOODBURN, M.D., Demonstrator of Practical Physiology. Dr. Woodburn has his hands full managing those rowdy Sophs and Freshies in the Physiological Lab. 1 le is well liked bv all the students. ARTHUR P. SCHAEFER, M.D., Assistant to Chair of Diseases of Children. Dr. Schaefer got very excited one day after finding a case of cranial tabes. He was so elated over the fact that he cried out to the students in a dramatic voice, “Feel it, you may never feel it again.” 43 JOHN A. HAWKINS. M.D., Associate Professor of Diseases of Rectum. Dr. Hawkins is noted for his European experience. He insists on each student bringing in a patient. LOUIS F. ANKRIM. M.D., Assistant to Chair of Dermatology. Dr.Ankrim lills Dr. Dunn’s chair very ably. He says diseases of the skin can be divided into three classes: (i) Those cured with mercury, (2) Those cured with sulphur, (3) Those that not even the devil can cure. E. A. WEISS. M.D., Assistant to Chair of Diseases of Women. Dr. Weiss by name and Dr. Wise in fact. He is well liked by the lx vs. CHARLES B. McABOY, M.D., Assistant to Chair of Physiology. Dr. McAboy and the students did not hit it very well at first, but we now realize that it was our fault, not his, and he has the respect of the class. We arc lad to see him come to quiz. HENRY PAUL KOHBERGER. M.D., Director of Clinical Laboratory and Assistant to Chair of Principles of Medicine. Have you ever noticed how Dr. Kohberger emphasizes facts by making marks on the blackljoard? Incidentally he erases a line or two also. He is very much averse to the students asking questions during the class hour. RUSSELL HERBERT BOGGS. M.D., Clinical Instructor Radiotherapy, Electrotherapy and Phototherapy. 44 A. B. WALLGREN, M.D., Assistant to Chair of Pathology. I)r. Wallgren takes care of the “Bug Lab.” in case of Dr. Ingram’s absence, lie is a favorite with the bovs. ROSCOE EVANS, M.D., Elementary Surgical Clinic. Dr. I-'.vans is noted for the hard examination he gives at the end of the term. FRANK M. STORER. M.D., Assistant to Chair of Descriptive Anatomy. Noted for the way he gets angry at the boys. JOHN R. McCURDY. M.D.. Assistant � o Chair of Clinical Medicine. GEORGE R. COATES, M.D., Assistant to Chair of Gcnito Urinary Dis eases. E. S. DICKEY. M.D., Assistant to Chair of Physiology. EDWARD L.

JOHN STEELE MABON. M.D., Emeritus Professor of Diseases of Nose and Throat. Member of Board of Trustees. EUGENE G. MATSON. M.D., Emeritus Professor of Bacteriology and Pathology. 46 COEEEGIATE ----AND------ ENGINEERING M DANIEL CARHART, C.E., M.C.E., Sc.D., Dean. Professor of Civil Engineering. As a teacher. l)r. Carhart is an inspiration to the student. Many men prominent in engineering and business ascribe much of their success to his influence. A strict disciplinarian, lie is yet very popular with the undergraduates. Ilis practical experience in his younger years enables him to give just relative values to the practical and the theoretical in his teachings and writings. The latter arc at once lucid and concise, and it would be well for the profession if the dean could give more time to authorship.’ “Uncle Dan ’ is the author of Car-hart’s Plane Surveying and Field I look for Civil Engineers. 47 FRANCIS CLIFFORD PHILLIPS. A.M., Ph.D.. University of Pennsylvania. 1878. Professor of Chemistry and Mineralogy. Dr. Phillips is our first professor in length of service. What he does not know of chemistry has never been discovered, but what you do not know usually is. ‘Gentlemen!—” He is careful (!!) about explosives, therefore has invented a face-protector, a large glass funnel wide enough to cover the face, stuck on with four pieces of court-plaster. ()ncc. while preparing an explosive hair invigorator the shank of his protector upset the mixture and dislodged the funnel, an explosion followed and the liquid covered his face and neck. So “Woolly wears a proof of his chemical genius. While expert in many lines, his specialty is natural gas (of all kinds). ALBERT ELLIS FROST, A.M.. Sc.D., Dartmouth, 1872. Professor of Physics. We really have always had great men. This one has been here a long time. I las a terrible subject but explains it well. Practiced by explaining the advantages of the University so that he knows how to bring out a small | oint. hive minutes' talk with his smile makes father think the boy will Ik in gentle hands. I le is. till—. Always says the story didn't refer to any one. If you know anything, he will discover it. rear the tender thought, and teach the young idea how to shoot.” Specialist in clear thinking and exact expression. Mighty in apology, too mighty, some say: and he speaks with no direct assertions unqualified. Wait till he writes that new physics book! REID THOMAS STEWART, Ph.M., C.E., Western University of Pennsylvania, 1884. Professor of Mechanical Engineering. Author of a much renowned treatise on Hot Air lubes. written expressly for the amusement of the writer and the amazement of others. Prof. Stewart is the surprise and terror of Senior engineering students during the first few weeks of each fall term. However. they soon learn to know him as an interesting man. and prefer having him rather than themselves do the talking and questioning. He is liable to “jump on you with both feet. so be interested but keep in the dark. 48 HENRY SAYRE SCRIBNER, A.M., Princeton, 1881. Professor of Greek Language and Literature. He knows any amount of stuff but you wouldn't know he knew it. Noted for realistic rendition of dramatic paragraphs, comedy a specialty. Has keen appreciation of a joke unless it could he interpreted as derogatory to the glory of Hellas. Relentless in length of recitation and unmerciful to the shirk, girls (!!!) not excepted. Knthusiastic. for longer lessons and abundant reference reading. Supporter of reformed (?) Republican politics and denouncer of Matthew Stanley Quay and Philip of Macedon. Have a private free-for-all talk with him and become acquainted. COLBERT MOUSSEAU DES ISLETS, A.M., Ph.D., Princeton, 1869. Professor of Latin and French. “Let us enjoy ourselves together, is his idea. The subject may be dry but he enlivens it. for he is a man of ideas and many stories. When he lays down the book and takes oft those eye glasses and holds them out a bit toward you. then you expect. W hen I was in Canada last summer. or, “Out in Iowa.” He wants his students to be broad thinkers, above all things thinkers. The most pleasant man to meet in the whole school. He does not stand on his dignity. He does not need to. being six feet tall without inner soles. Somehow Pop Des Islets is universally liked, even if he does not believe in lovely dress, for he wears a lovely smile. ALEXANDER STUART HUNTER. Ph.D., LL.D., Washington and Jefferson, 1880. Professor of English Literature and Ethics. “Cnclc Alick, Ph.D.. LL.D., and do not forget it. Nice man. for often there is a smile behind that upturned mustache (which, by the way. is his and therefore at his disposal and not yours). Looks like the Kaiser when he is fixed up and like Mark Twain when he’s mussed (fixed down). If you can give that calf illustration of mine. It’s a good one. or an exact quotation from the book, he is delighted. TIis Ph.D. was gotten on his knowledge of the American boy. and that LL.D. was given for laying down this law to the young ladies, genus-American, species—W. l 1 . “The young ladies must cease their conversation.” Makes the eagle scream on all possible occasions. At ease on state occasions—and all others. 49 deduct W ■■ JOHN COLVIN FETTERMANN, Ph.M., Western University of Pennsylvania, 1896. Professor of Biology. •Tett is a good scout and liked by most students. If all the faculty should take as much interest in the students and their interests as he does, we would be killed by the shock, but as it is the spirit departs slowly. He is a loyal YV. U. P. man; chief beggar for 1905, but back to the bugs in 1906. A great milk inspector for the Trust. His best method is to get a good spy glass, climb the tallest tree in the farming district, make notes of all pumps in the surrounding country and take daily observations from this view-point at milking time. An authority on how to keep frogs. JOHN HAMMOND SMITH. E.E., Western University of Pennsylvania, 1898. Assisting Professor of Mathematics and Drawing. They give Smith a better and then better job. He may be dean yet. if he keeps on smiling. Some of the boys think Smith makes them work. All which proves that he is a good professor for most of them need driving. FERDINAND BERGER, A.M . Professor of German Language and Literature. Herr I’ergcr, dcr Dcutscher with the hugh frame, wonderful lung capacity, a scented breath, and a white vest. Smokes behind the building in summer, but now uses his lunch hours training the concert grand choir. Sometimes we can hear the choir when the soft pedal is on and the forced draft is out of order. Has the reputation of breaking up two pianos in the same number of years. Companies are now presenting instruments for strength tests. Berger was not in the Branco-Prussian W ar in 1870, but he has been ever since, and has won it 917,473 times. But he is in America by preference, because—lie likes the girls. SAMUEL NEWTON TAYLOR, Ph.D., Wesleyan University, 1887. Professor of Electrical Engineering. Taylor and his notebooks arc inseparable. United they stand, divided—nobody knows what. But if you ever meet him in the hall you know he is a fine man. EDMUND BURKE HUEY, A.B., Ph.D., Lafayette, 1895. Professor of Psychology and Education. Huey has a tenor voice, a woolly horse, a head full of bumps which he developed while starring at end for Lafayette—or in some other way. and re-c-emarkable methods. His brains arc also worthy of special mention. Says his horse is erratic (this shows what environment will do, Professor), but is improving under scientific treatment. Poor beast, it is taking a course in education. He claims it is an Indian pony but it looks like a Shetland. Dr. Iluey is very particular. It is reported that he drinks tea and keeps a parrot: others claim him to be capable of higher things. S3. HAROLD COULTER GEORGE, B.S., E.M., Pennsylvania State, 1904. Instructor in Mining and Geology. He's a jolly good fellow, which nobody will deny. W hen he became a professor he did not cease to be a man. young, too. He helps make Wup famous by performing with the (dee Club. As a result of his courting experiences he will doubtless lx‘ a better tennis referee than ever, bine mineralogist. Some remarks of his suggest (!!!) that he was up in the “Cobalt region last summer. 51 IDEN FOSTER RICHARDSON, B.S., M.E., Purdue University, 1905. Assistant in Mechanical Engineering. Mr. Richardson came to this University last fall and since then has gained the favor of all who have come in contact wth him. You will think he is a cinch until you have to spend more time re-writing a paper which he has corrected than you did preparing the original. Mis hobby is the Curtis steam turbine. ALEXANDER SILVERMAN, Ph.B., A.B., Western University of Pennsylvania, 1902. Instructor in Analytical Chemistry. Although bodily present at Y. U. I ., he seems to have his mind (he very decidedly has one) at Cornell. The chemical students are constantly being reminded of the methods used at the University in Ithaca. When Aleck heads the Faculty, the smoking of ten cent cigars (under the hood) will be a requisite for the Chemical Department. Pretty good scout, for he is another of the really loyal alumni and professors who care. II is chief drinks are pasteurized milk and Apol-lonaris water. ALEXANDER WELLINGTON CRAWFORD, A.M., Ph.D.. University of Toronto, 1895. Instructor in English. William Shakespeare Crawford came to this great institution last fall, and the term opened with a great increase of students in the collegiate department. Dr. Crawford has made a great increase in the number of Knglish courses open to the unlearned and has started a movement for the eradication of nasal tones in the Sophomore and Freshman classes. Neither his mistakes nor those of anybody else worry him. It may be that teaching philosophy produces that smooth voice and unruffled manner. See what learning can do! And there is a smile, brightness pressed down and running over. 52 SAMUEL BLACK LINHART, A.M., D.D., University of Wooster, 1895. Professor of Biblical Literature. I It showeth thee how a great man should act. Yes he does. He treateth his inferiors with that proper self-respecting kindliness which exalts both him that gives and him that takes, so twice exalted. Yes it is. This is the Secretary of the University. and when the University becomes Greater, the secretary will yet be great enough. He who hath missed seeing the l)r. enter chapel hath missed—something, yea, much, for reverence is the want of this ungodly age. Why should the spirit of mortal be proud? Well, take a course in Biblical Literature and see what you can see GEORGE ALEXANDER McKALLIP DYESS. A.M., Ph.D. Instructor in History. There’s a lot to that man. Big in all directions. Great man! Sign of the Greater University. Keen judge of men—speaks of his “bright sophomore class” —not a sarcastic man either—generally. He likes everybody—started a mutual admiration society as soon as he came—membership involuntary. Beware of him, he may get you interested in one of your studies. And the man is actually willing to take up American history ! We have waked up, and do you know, we like it! 53 CHARLES LAMBERT KINSLOE, B.S.. Assistant in Electrical Engineering. The boy wonder! He is great! Did you hear “Pa” Brashear call him “’my boy?” Kinsloe strained his eyes looking for a line of force—now he wears glasses. Probably can find a line of weakness when he cares to, in the boys, you know, lie has never conducted chapel yet, but he will be a professor yet. CONANT VAN BLARCOM. Superintendent of Shops. 54 WILLIAM PENN SLIFER, C.E., Lehigh University, 1902. Instructor in Civil Engineering. A teacher is a teacher. Prof. Slifcr is a teacher, therefore he is a teacher. If any of you can find any Haw in the argument, do it. And he is an extra nice man. lie makes a special effort to he a nice man and a student may well go to him in a pinch, football men especially. Visits the sick and doesn't blow any whistle when he goes. Put students are queer things. FRANK SCHLESINGER, Ph.D., Director of Observatory and Professor of Astronomy. RALPH HAMILTON CURTISS, Ph.D., Assistant Astronomer and Instructor in Astronomy. ROBERT HORACE BAKER, A.M., Assistant at Observatory. WALTER ALBERT GEKLER, M.D., Instructor in Gymnasium. 55 ffimjlt Ashbury Ijarkrtt, A.iH. 3lnliu iHnpkiutf, 1UU5 Assistant in iftaUigij Mr. Hackett was one of the best college instructors we have ever had or heard of. His coming was very quiet. Indeed the first news students had of him was the enthusiastic report of some one who had talked with the new man. He was always ready to talk to anyone and each time he made an admiring friend. He made explicit plans for a greater University and began immediately to carry them out. His knowledge and ability astonished those who met him, as his kindness delighted them. And now he is gone, but his spirit remains; for some are working now with an ideal before them, and he made the ideal. D 6 N T A h H. EDMUND FRIESELL, D.D.S., Dean of Dental Faculty.

Old Koch, as the boys call him, has everybody bluffed: says that if there is any trouble he will be on deck with both feet. Doubtless you think you can fool the old man. but he generally keeps his peepers peeled, and he says that if lie catches anyone shooting rubber bands at him, lie will send him (or her) away from the joint to stay. Dr. Koch is liked in general by the boys (and girls). 64 JAMES HARTLEY BEAL, Sc.D., Pharm. D., Professor of Applied Pharmacy. Scio, 1880. Dr. Beal is a good scout, the girls just thought lie was the candy professor. The question is asked, “Do you miss him?” Humph! whoever asked it was a dumb-head, or didn't know him. Why, if Dr. Beal doesn’t come back next term, the boys claim they will go crazy. James 11, was the best man there to give you a calling: he could go about cool as an ice man and at the same time cut clear in to the bone. We— well, we deserved it sometimes.

Oh, well, he doesn’t mean it that way. but you know how it goes. You never hear a word against Dr. Aschman, even though he does come from Beaver county (!!!). ADOLPH KOENIG, M.D., Pharm. D., Emeritus Professor of Materia Medica and Botany, and Professor of Physiology. Bellevue Hospital Medical College, 1879.

Wilkinsburg, Pa. In addition to his qualifications for inheriting the magistracy of Wilkinsburg, L. James has a set of fine, strong teeth and a bass voice that would cause a bumble bee to blush. Creehnan is understood to be contemplating a visit to the Philippine Islands with a view to investigating conditions there. Inasmuch as Taft is busy at present with his bee-hunting. Shorty” will have to devise a variation of the hydraulic press to hold down the lid after he gets busy with those sassy brunettes. LAYARD EMERSON DINGER, New Mayville, Pa. Lo, the poor Indian! “Squaw Ding-Ding” is one of the rough house artists. He is ready to start a general survival of the fittest at am time. I’ses the weed in any form you can spare. He is getting to be a real decent chap since “Youngie left for parts unknown. There is a rumor that Squaw really has a lady friend. (Yet) He is still wild, reckless and uncurbed. 95 THOMAS LOUIS DOUGLAS, New Brighton, Pa. “A man who would make so vile a pun would not scruple to pick a pocket.” With the neck and shoulders of a prize fighter but the disposition of a kitten “Tom has directed his energies to basketball and sanitary engineering. The Missionary’s nightmare. The “bidder of 1907. WILLIAM CLIFFORD FISHER, Swissvale, Pa. “Venus,” with a shape like a branch of the old apple tree, is weighed down with the presidency of the Class of 1907 in f erpetuo and it is just killing the pool conscientious lad trying to devise a way to clear the debt from the class. A friend of everyone, not onlv in � • sunshine, but also in sorrow. JOSEPH SIOUSSA LAMBIE, Allegheny, Pa. Pawn-like eyes, milky teeth and raven locks with a natural marcelle tendency are among the most notable of Joe’s outword attractions. As leading lady in class theatricals he is only approached by “Squaw Dinger and Hartman. 'Flic three have been styled the “Three (Iraces. In spite of a long wind, the result of four years of daily scaling Observatory Hill, Lambic is less of a talker than a basketball player. Loose jointed and in deadly earnest. 96 JACOB LICHT, Pittsburg, Pa. “Jap. so called not because lie is one of our far eastern neighbors., but because of his inherent talent of bluff, should have been a funeral director as he fears not to undertake anything from correcting the chairman of the “Literary Society to macadamizing a road. An authority on Parliamentary law who has an inexhaustible fund of jokes (?). who laughs like a hyena, grins like a cat. but never weeps. He knows his rights (and then some) and he shows them to you. WILLIAM MOWRY MURRAY. De Haven. Pa. “What better friend hath man than the pipe?” “Red or “Murphy loves everyone and hates no one. He never harmed anyone, but lie thinks that he plays rough basketball. “Red has an abundance of rusty freckles and pink hair, lie wears glasses, for he strained his eyes looking for a hair dye and freckle lotion. Don't worry about it. Murphy. It is no disgrace to have those blemishes, but it is very unhandy. THEODORE JOHN PIPER, Pittsburg. Pa. Theodore, be silent a moment and watch some other fool. Thereby you may grow wise or at least learn to conceal thy foolishness. He is a nice and accommodating fellow, but his surprised look becomes monotonous. He is good at cross-examination, being so sure to guess the wrong thing and provoke explanation. He is a member of the Glee Club and is most constantly and unintentionally the plague of Berger’s choir. And then he imagines himself a ladies' man! CLIFFORD EVELAND TERBUSH, Allegheny, Pa. Evelyn, our class missionary, has quite a record, stole chalk, passed an examination, sassed a professor and once (but only once) got to recitation on time. A poor child, with a perpetual grin, who has been spoiled by the home authorities. A great basketball player and a friend of the ladies, little ones preferred. Drawing Room 98 WILLIAM MARSHALL COOPER, Bellevue. Pa. “Blessed are the meek.” “Bill” is perfectly harmless, but in his inquisitiveness is liable to be severe on laboratory equipment. “Hill” is the possessor of a sickly smile smeared on an expressionless face. 1 le is the assistant of John Schrci-ber. engineer. “Hill” had a girl out to a debate once. He is guaranteed not to bite, scratch or ruin the furniture. WELDAY SCOTT ELLIOTT, Allegheny, Pa. Three-fifths of him genius and two-fifths sheer fudge.” “Muck,” our mechanical genius, whose propensity for a good time and 20 minutes of “survival of the fittest. is well known, has lately developed the bad habit of resigning and deserting the teachings of P. E. P� . Has been led astray and shows signs of retrogression, which ought to be laid at the door of his agnostical friend, according to the “Sky Pilot. 99 JOHN WILLIAM SCHREIBER, Pittsburg, Pa. What expressive brown eyes! What pretty rosy cheeks! What a l eautiful voice! Tut, tut; these are nothing. '1'his child is a Senior Mechanical Engineer! Alas for John! Xo more worlds to conquer! The one example of a massive mind in a massive body. Me has subdued and conquered Cooper, the meek and lowly. A brilliant hot air vender with Beau de Roclios II as his guiding light. Much interested in seamless tubes. CONANT VAN BLARCOM. Pittsburg. Pa. What’s in a name?” Six feet two of natural born engineer, and it came from Milwaukee. Kind reader, he does not need to wear sabots to proclaim his pedigree. He has divers tastes in girls but in his desire to find something to match his own height, and in order to look presentable on the street, he sought favor in the eyes of an ex-Gov-ernor’s daughter. Hartman is his handmaid. Van is an authority on fashions and etiquette. CHARLES McFARREN HARTMAN. Pittsburg. Pa. He has never encountered his affinity but just the same he is searching diligently. At last he met the new Senior Co-ed. Do not think for a moment that his affection is all for girls. Base lie! He is a bosom friend of Beau de Rochos II. of W. I . I . He once held down a city job with a bunch of other honest j ol-iticians. A shark at basketball and hockey. ioo WALTER SCHWEPPE, Pittsburg, Pa. “Reden ist Silber, Schweigen ist Gold.” A Dutch-Irish-American (iraiul Opera singer, and he hails from 1 hitler street. He acquired those massive muscles in a foundry, but that auburn sunset— peace! be still. A companion of Welz's , for which he should be given due credit. Beware, he gets angry and is then worse than a bull in a china shop, l ie is the best of good fellows and bubbles over with college spirit. He believes in Socialism and Spiritualism. Mechanical Laboratory IOI FREDERICK AMBROSE. Ligonier, Pa. “Father” is not a natural albino but his hair assumed its present shade during an intense psychic storm when he was asked to hurry. Prominent in class meetings, he is, however, even more harmless than he looks. A rather concentrated corporositv, mildly innocent and somewhat troubled eyes, a smile like a summer sunset and brains, arc among his prominent assets. A willing hand to serve, his attitude is usually one of mild protest rather than a forceful assertion. ROBERT JACOB GLUECK, Homestead, Pa. “Where ignorance is bliss, ’tis folly to be wise.” How does he pronounce it? Click, deck, Gluck, Glook. are some of the many interpretations. Glueck moves in the best society in Homestead. He is a great entertainer and somewhat of a ladies' man—with a soft pedal on the somewhat. As an orator and athlete he has few inferiors. He has several envious admirers of his mental abilities. 102 GEORGE HENRY HORNE, Pittsburg, Pa. Ilornie is one of those welcome personalities who can never quite forget to smile. Big of frame and massive of cheek capacity, he gives excellent promise of some day becoming a man. Mighty alike both in class-room and overalls.

LINDSAY LA CLARE MITCHELL, Pittsburg, Pa. “Then he will talk—good gods—how he will talk.” “Elsie,” a tin-horn sport, is noted for his love for the Hebrew element of the class.

Has little chance of graduating with any engineering class as he neither chews or smokes. CHESTER FRASER ROSE, Baden, Pa. A story-teller by nature, a condition-lifter by acquisition and during the track season a leader of the simple life by necessity. A good square fellow, an extensive traveler (lie comes daily from Baden) and a fine orator. ()ne of the “Acridium americanum” who should have been a mechanical to be in his element. 103 ROBERT WALLACE THOMPSON, Allegheny, Pa. ‘‘Why should the heart of mortal be proud?” “W ally” abhors girls but never said so. I le never swears out loud but—. I le is very skillful in his secret indulgence in the West Virginia narcotic. A good friend and a steady reliable fellow. The only noisy thing about this quiet fellow is that bass (or base, as you please) voice which he airs in the chapel hymns. WALTER CHARLES WETZEL, Sharpsburg, Pa. “He was meek and mild and a man of few words.” Welz is a friend of Red Schwcppe. for which we are at a loss to say what we think. I le used to live in Freeport, but to get nearer Red and civilization in general, he pitched his tent toward Sharpsburg. Many great and ingenious ideas lie latent under that black shock of hair. Ilis characteristics can be summed up in a few words: Come what will, you will find me ready. RAYMOND CHESTER STACKHOUSE, Bellevue, Pa. From our old reliable rough and ready Ixninccr with a weather eye ever ready for trouble. Stackie has by the able assistance of our beloved librarian been developed into a veritable lamb whose one baa is thesis. Carries his head well forward, burglar style, but his last theft occurred when he stole a march on Katherine. 104 LOUIS KOSSUTH ACKER, Allegheny, Pa. Righteous indignation is Luke's long suite, and outraged innocence his especial forte. Crazy as he is over Prof. George and the Cobalt Region, he is a man of wide interests and good judgment, ilis latest experiment consisted in assaying a specimen of gold from 17s prominent flasher. The report indicated a 11011-paying ore. Lnergetic. far-sighted, with a slight tendency for knocking here and there, Acker surely has a bright future ahead as a prospector. WILLIAM FREDERICK FISCHER, Pittsburg, Pa. Talk is cheap. “William Fat” (W. F.) has grown so large in the last year that he now turns sidewise to get through doors. “Fat is the class free side show. Me looks like a Berger that was pulled too soon. The victim tinder consideration is the larger hall of the Mining Engineering section of the Senior class. Words, words and more words flow incessantly from his jolly countenance. J)anu'ii (StlnuuT ©litter James Gilmore Oliver, within the short time spent among us. has left a memory that will last and a record that will endure. He was a member of the Electrical Sectiop of the Class of 1907. His death, which occurred op April 3, 1907. came at the end of a long illness. The funeral services, as simple as impressive, were conducted by Rev. Stevensop. who was assisted by Chancellor McCormick. The esteerr) in which Mr. Oliver was held might have been judged by the number of members of the faculty, students and alumni who were present. A deep sense of irreparable loss is felt by those to whom Mr. Oliver was more thap a mere acquaintance. His was. truly, a character that fostered intimacy.

ALVIN CURTIS AMOS. Pittsburg. Pa. Joined us again this year, having taken his I'resh-man year here, then going to Indianapolis for the Junior year. Although he is reported to be the proprietor of a flourishing practice in Hazelwood, lie was never known to have that essential to student life commonly known as “makins. ()wing to the scarcity of his visits to school, we have been unable to become thoroughly acquainted with him, hut to judge from his cheery “good morning. ’ his heart must he in the right place. AARON REIMER BAXTER, Tarentum, Pa. The greatest dignitary of our class. Long, lank, and lean, with weak eyes, about eleven inches of neck, and a correspondingly long tongue. He is already a dentist in his own estimation, and has opened an ofiice in the hustling burg of Tarentum. He expects to confine his practice strictly to the fair sex. among whom his charms have already wrought havoc. ioS CARL WILLIAM BLUMENSCHEIN, Brushton, Pa. He says lie is German, blit just look at that name! And he always deals at Arnfcld’s. I wonder why? lias given us several demonstrations of speedy workmanship. having been known to insert an amalgam filling in the short space of three hours. In stature he resembles a pigmy, in his own mind a giant. His Herculean brow is adorned by a beautiful mop of purple-red hirsute appendage of which he is unduly proud. ADOLPH ABRAM BLUMENTHAL, Pittsburg. Pa. I -ate of Jerusalem. Lightning ojx-rator and expert on extracting. We could not get along without him in the infirmary, for who would then care for His chosen people?” Has a breath like a man, but a voice like a nut. I le needs a megaphone. CHARLES HENRY BOISSEAU.

A man of few words and fewer actions, as lie has demonstrated on the gridiron. His strong game is catching punts (?). Although “Hank” has never visited the Catskills, he has been known to perform a feat surpassing that of the keg bearer in the myth of Rip Van Winkle. And through the blackness of Pittsburg's night, too. He has made his mark in the Dental Department. and that from garret to cellar. Five and costs. (Koch and Friesell, justices.) 109 WALTER FRANCIS BURGOON, Patton, Pa. Athletic representative ’o6-’o7. The windbag of the class—no, of the University. A millionaire—for a minute. But didn’t he go some while it lasted. Has viewed the world from several positions, brake beams, bumpers and rods. It is rumored that lie once had his trousers pressed, but do you believe in signs? Once succeeded in bluffing the Medic Sophs into believing him quiz-master of the you believe in signs? Once succeeded in bluffing the Dent. Fresh. CHARLES VOYLE BUTLER, Pittsburg, Pa. Expects to locate on Wylie avenue and continue the good work started by Booker '1'. Washington. A convenient man to have hanging around the infirmary.

CRAIGHEAD, Allegheny, Pa. “Change your name, go on be game.” He was Little Jack Horner to us last year, but what changes hath time wrought.

One of the fourth triumvirate who’s highest ambition is that not a single show shall leave the city unseen by them. WILBUR EDWIN DUVALL, Mackinaw, 111. “Duvy sometimes claims his home as Peoria. 111., but we know that he at one time herded the pigs around the Mackinaw river bottoms. For the benefit of those who don't know where Mackinaw is. it is the place they dump the garbage from Peoria. Duvy attended a college of pharmacy in Chicago and graduated in Indiana, so by the time he got to us the hay seeds and corn silks were pretty well shaken off. I le was the official doorkeeper in his Freshman year and handled the job very satisfactorily. WILLIAM ADOLPH HOLSTEIN. Deucher, Ohio. Direct from Germany. Spent his first two years at Cincinnati, but saw the evil of his way and changed to W'up. Judging from the looks of his grade card he has been a “student. Xo particular specialty but will loll on his patients. 111 DAVID POMERENE HUSLER, Finleyville, Pa. This man surely derived his name from contrast to his disposition. We do not know how he spent his first two years of college work, hut—well it is no wonder that he takes a couple years' vacation now and then. If we can just hold him together for a few more months, the Faculty may he coaxed into giving him a degree, so he may go hack to sleep and not he disturbed again by these college fevers. DEWITT PRITCHARD HUTCHINSON. McKeesport, Pa. Oh. you image of a baby elephant. Hutch took a hath this spring and caused an awful tlood in Pittsburg owing to the rise of water.

ALBERT FREDERICK LEONHARD, Pittsburg, Pa. “The pigmy of the class.” A quiet, herbiverous grasshoppericus biped. Keeps the infirmary crowded with fair damsels awaiting his leisure. A mere child, with a man’s thoughts. 112 WILLIAM E. LEWIS, Scranton, Pa. A concentrated mixture of profanity, vanity, egotism and pessimism. His name is not found on the recording angel’s lxx ks. Received his early mcrchantile education at Kaufmann’s. Fond of an argument, and when once he has formed an opinion all the powers of Hades could not change him. ALEXANDER NEWTON LURTING, Mars, Pa. Although “Eck hails from Mars, he needs no stars to guide him as he carries his headlight with him and his perpetual smile keeps it very much in evidence. “Eck” is a pretty, rosy cheeked boy and is not a dead one with the ladies. From some of his stunts in school we have no fear of his ability to take care of himself and to get the money. ANDREW MONJAN MARTIN. Armenia. “Who’ll walk down with me can have a beer. W'e don't blame him for changing, or rather building onto, his name. Can ask more questions than the quiz master himself and if he doesn’t know theory it isn’t his fault.

Is a workman of some note and very constant in his lectures, but will persist in demonstrating to the Demonstrators. Can make and break more promises than Kyle, and that's going some. 114 CHARLES ADAM REITH, New York. This young (?) man lias missed his calling. He should now occupy one of the exalted chairs in our faculty instead of simply filling the menial position of a student. His famous saying, Doctor, did 1 understand you to say.—etc..” has become the by-word of our class. ()ne of the shining stars along the line of Prosthesis, and fellow councillor of our beloved patron. Dr. McCurdy. ALVIN DEWITT RHODES, McKeesport, Pa. Called “Dusty by some. After Death” by others.

Claims to have been one of the greatest broncho busters, coyote killers, and all-around bad men of the West. Has demonstrated his powers of concentration, not only in school but among the fair sex as well.

Pittsburg, Pa. President ’o5-’o6. Another student in the Dental Department. Austere and dignified. Soldier in fact as well as of fortune. Helps the Y. U. T.

Football squad ’o4-’o5, ’o5-’o6, ’o6-’o7, Windsor, Mo.

But the fel lows love him just the same. Junior Class, Medical Department CLARENCE SAMUEL ALLISON, Ambridge, Pa. “I am yet learning.” Allison is a stockily built young man who is not sc. bright that he shines, neither is he dull, but jogs along at a good enough pace to get him through. There is one disadvantage he lias, that is his name appears at the head of the quiz list, which means that Allison is called almost every day, no matter where the Professor stopped the day before. JAMES METHENY BARR. Valencia, Pa. “A little nonsense now and then Is relished by the best of men.” “Jim” is one of the jolly men of the class. We certainly do miss him if he is absent for a day. 11 is winning smile and salute make you feel good for the balance of the day.

FRANKLIN EMERY BEERS. Orbisonia. Pa. Oh. what may man within him hide. Though angel on the outward side.” Beers has a good name, (especially on a hot summer day), and is a good fellow. He was up against it during the first two years but things arc coming better now and you can look for him to make a good finish. You can always tell Beers by his cowboy whoop, which certainly is an earsplitter. 137 BENJAMIN BERGER. McKeesport, Pa. O, what may man within him hide. Though, angel on the outward side.” Bennie is a giant weighing about ninety or a hundred pounds with about three hundred ixninds of devilment in him. W hen you get ahead of him let the class know about it and we will take off our hats to you. Ben does not lead the class, but is a hard plugger and will land on the right side when the time comes. FRANCIS CHARLES BOUCEK, Allegheny, Pa. “I have an exposition of sleep come upon me.” Boucek sits first in the amphitheatre: not because he is the brightest man in the class, but there is such a nice soft wall to lean against, making quite a cozy little corner into which he withdraws himself when he wants to take a nap. If you wish to get in this seat you must first have it out with Boucek. CHARLES LEON BOWMAN. McKeesport, Pa. But, for my own part, it was Greek to me.” Charlie” is a quiet fellow, (at times), who always has a fear that he is not going to get through. When the time comes, however, he is generally found on the right side of the fence and still has a few stored away in that tank of his. Charlie will make good or we miss our guess. WILLIAM SCHULER BROADHURST. Oil City, Pa. Better one bride in hand than ten in the wood.” Bill is a well developed young man whose delight is wrestling among the benches in the amphitheatre.

Now, by two headed Janus, Nature hath framed strange fellows in her time.” Will has a nice crop of curly, red hair and it shows up so prominently in the class that the boys all call him Red. Can you blame them? Hut Will does not like the pseudonym and often gets angry. When riled his face becomes as red as his hair, but never has it been so red as when he had a little go with Abe Slier in the Freshman year. It was a treat. JAMES WOOLSLAYER CLARK, Pittsburg, Pa. “I never dare to be as funny as I can. Jim does not have much to say and docs not rank with the fun-makers of the class, but he has many, many friends among the hoys. It is a treat to hear his quiet, droll voice in recitation.

I am Sir Oracle, And when I ope my lips, let no dog bark!” Tom” is a happy-go-lucky fellow, very seldom gets excited but when he breaks out lie can he heard for miles around.

He got in all right by climbing over the porch. The boys say, that since then Tom has become an expert climber. JOHN MOORE CONWAY. Pittsburg, Pa. So sweet the blush of bashfulness, Even pity scarce can wish it less.” John is a quiet young man: has a How do you do for every one, and never seems to bother a soul, but plugs along at a fairly good pace. 1 le has been located at the Municipal Hospital for some time, where he is getting some good experience. RALPH EMMERSON CUMMINGS. Pittsburg, Pa. So we‘ll go no more a roving so late into the night.” Cummings has at last become a regular student.

Conncllsville, Pa. “A very gentle beast, and of good conscience.” This is our friend Plowhandlc. He is a litic fellow but his heart is in the right place.

Coulterville, 111. “I am never merry except I hear sweet music.” ‘•Joe is cue of our nig men with nice curly locks, good natmed. and musical, lie is a member of the class quartet, having the first tenor part.

Monongahcla City, Pa. Bashfulness is an ornament to youth.” John is a rather nervous young chap, bow-legged, and likes to chew “Five brothers.’ The fellows say he shines among the ladies on the bill. Now. John, you know that will not do for a medical student. JOHN EDWARD FERRINGER, Pittsburg, Pa. Aye, sir. a mystery.” •T.aldy” does not have much to say to anyone and it is a hard matter to explain why except that it may be localise he likes to be a follower of Erost. It has been asked many times why “Baldy” takes so much interest in the newspapers at the Surgical Clinics. Perhaps be will give an answer. HARRISON HORTON FISHER. Pittsburg. Pa. Better late than never.” Napoleon.” commonly called Xap.” makes an excellent target for paper wads and other things, and the boys have target practice every day. I le is greatly missed when be is absent. It was rumored one day that “Nap” got bis hair cut, but you could hardly notice it at all. 140 N. ARTHUR FISCHER, Pittsburg, Pa. Reputation, reputation, reputation! Oh! I have lost my reputation.” Arthur is quite an industrious young man but talks a good deal. He was supposed to have had a reputation as an obstetrician once upon a time, it being rumored last year that he was to be made resident physician at the Maternity Hospital. This must have fallen through. How about it. Fish? WILLIAM COLVIN FROST, Pittsburg, Pa. Therefore my age is as a lusty winter, Frosty, but kindly.” Jack” Frost tries hard to live up to his name for he is, to u certain extent, a cold proposition to the class Perhaps it is partly the other fellow s fault also, for Jack makes them hump some to keep up with him. However, he has one serious fault, namely: he thinks the class is composed of one man and he is the man. LEO C. GOLDMAN. New York. N. Y. “And I oft have heard defended,— Little said is soonest mended.” Goldman is the hot air distributor of the class. He knows the marks of each individual, also each Professor's business, (private and commercial): at least lie tells you so. He delights in telling you how often he goes to New York, also to loaf around the office. RALPH DANA GOODWIN. Pittsburg, Pa. “They are only truly great who are truly good.” It is hard to write much more about our friend Goodwin than to say he is .1 quiet, easy-going, studious and polite young man. who. alxmt twice a year, raises a new crop of hair on his upper lip. I le is one of our brightest students. JACOB A. GREKIN, Pittsburg, Pa. Too early seen unknown, and known too late.” Some men talk much but know little: others talk little but know much. Jake belong to the latter class, for you seldom hear him spouting off much about what lie knows, hut when examination time comes around, he emerges from the battle with flying colors. 1 le is also well read on subjects not pertaining to medicine. 141 CLARENCE ALEXANDER HAMILL. New Florence. Pa. “That man that hath a tongue, I say, is no man. If with his tongue he cannot win a woman.” Clarence is one of our sorrel tops with a sweet captivating voice.

He hath a daily beauty in his life.” “Perce is a fine looking chap and hails from a fine little town down the pike.

What’s in a name? That which we call a rose. By any other name would smell as sweet.” “Jim” gets all kinds of names from the Professors. Among the most common ones is Hotkiss; not a bad sounding name but Jim does not like it. he being a very bashful young man. He is a fair student with a ix etic look and Mark Twain hair, except that it is black, and he seems to take pride in it. 1 lowever. he is not much of a poet but is a good hustler. Business manager of the “Owl.” WILLIAM JOHNS, Wilkinsburg, Pa. “ ’Tis my vocation; ’tis no sin for a man to labor in his vocation. A somewhat nervous young man who seems to have bis troubles in quiz. He knows it all right, but cannot find the proper word to express bis answer. When it comes to writing, however, he can spiel them off. and that is what counts. CHESTER BEMIS JOHNSON. New Salem, Pa. “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.” Johnson can be summed up in the following few words: Mild, modest, meek, wise, but not in bis own conceit; strong, but not physically; an out-and-out man; as a student be has outgrown the name. I le is highly esteemed by his class associates. Member of the class quartet, and class treasurer. 142 CHARLES BARTON KEEBLER, Pittsburg, Pa. Because he speaketh not, need a man be dumb? Keeb will never be the cause of anyone becoming deaf from hearing him shout. W hen sjxraking as loud as Ik can it is not much above a whisper. Nevertheless his whispers are generally correct. A good fellow. 1 le may be wearing a wig some of these days. DAVID DICKEY KENNEDY. Pittsburg. Pa. And though mine arm should conquer twenty worlds, There’s a lean fellow beats all conquerors.” Judge” i one of our tall and narrows.

Millvale, Pa. “Zounds, man? remember thy swashing blow. Richard is a meek-looking lamb but with a fiery temper. If you want to get a crack at him you must not let him sec you for lie will get back good and strong. There is some steam behind that trusty right of his. and he gives it exercise during the summer months pitching for some of the well known teams around town. CLARENCE EUGENE KING, Brickchurch, Pa. For my voice, I have lost it with halloing and singing anthems. Gene” is our Cow Hoy Pete”; he is also called Wild King.

I will speak in a monstrous little voice.” Klin” is one of the South Side Phagocytes, who has a habit of talking but saying nothing.

He is associate editor of the Owl,” and is continually asking the fellows to fire stuff into the editor. 143 MARTIN EDWARD KOHN, McKeesport, Pa. “Even the smallest worms turn, being trodden on.” Martin is quite a character in school, and it is hard to say what we would do without him. When we cannot find anyone else to blame for some act it is put on Martin. However, if he must take, he also believes in giving, and gets back at the fellows sometimes. 1 Ic is one of our bright students. SYLVESTER JACOB LACKEY, Chicora, Pa. I dare do all that may become a man.” W hen Lack does a thing he docs it right. He is an inveterate smoker, not of the ten-for-fivc-ccnt class of cigarettes: O, no! far be it from thee, but he sports a package of Old Virginia cheroots every day. I guess that’s going some. A good fellow and one of our benedicts. NAN MAY LATIMER, Tarentum, Pa. “Seldom heard; her voice was so low and sweet.” Miss Latimer in class but “Nan” among the lx ys, has been with us since we entered school, and bids fair to remain until we graduate, for 1 think she enjoys the company of one or two of our young men. Don’t keep us in suspense so long. Nan, tell us who he is. FRANCIS VICTOR LAURENT, Pittsburg, Pa. “Well said; that was laid on with a trowel.” The “Star” has received his name for the reason of his having become such an adept at throwing bouquets at himself. He has taken upon himself the important role of affirming the Professors' remarks by a nod of his head, and in quiz the difficult feat of talking with his hands. He is. like our late friend Ruslander, a hard thinker. J. HACKETT LYNCH, Cresson Springs, Pa. “As merry as the day is long.” “Jolly” Lynch joined our ranks in the Sophomore year am! we arc glad he did. At first he was a little inclined to be rowdy, but this year he is a different man. 1 las a jovial disposition, and was never known to frown. A member of the class quartet. 144 FRANKE EARLE MAGEE, Sandy Lake, Pa. “Zounds! I was never so bethump’d with words Since I first called my brother’s father dad.” Magee is a lanky individual who hails from out around the corn and wheat fields.

JR., Pittsburg, Pa. “Hath any man seen him at the barbers.” Tim is a close friend of Rossiter and any time during school hours you can see them together.

Beaver, Pa. “Mend your speech a little, lest it may mar your fortunes.” I util recently Marks seemed very much reserved and did not mingle much with the boys, but lately he has awakened and is making up for lost time. We would like to ask a favor of Marks, i.e.. when he gets up to make a speech, to say something and say it so we can hear it. He is the side partner of Percy. CALVIN CLIFFORD MARSHALL. Glouster, Mass. The strength of twenty men.” “Captain,” “Cal.” “Lizz,” “Chesty, and a half dozen other synonyms, is a robust chap of football fame, whom we would not do without under any consideration. Although Cal. is a big. brawny fellow with a rough outward appearance, inwardly he is a gentleman, and will make a greater success in medicine than he is making in football, hilled vacancy left by Miller, captain of this year’s team, and is captain-elect of next year’s team. OMAR HUGO MEHL, Pittsburg, Pa. “He has found out what Nature intended him for. Has stuck to it and is succeeding.” “b'anny” is another one of our worthy brothers of gridiron fame, and on bis work in that department we do not think it necessary to dwell. As a student he ranks among the top notchers, and does not seem to exert himself at that. A good fellow and well liked by the boys. 45 VINCENT JOHN MULVEHILL, Braddock, Pa. “Romans, countrymen, and lovers! hear me and be silent that you may hear.” “Mulve is another one of our six-footers and is president of the class. If you want to make a study in art from life just look at Mul when he is reciting in class. He rivets his stare to a certain spot on the floor, curls his lower lip up to his nose, then rattles away at a two-minute flat clip. A good fellow and a fair student. ARTHUR CLIFTON McKINLEY, Corsica, Pa. His gold hair time hath to silver turned.” Mac” is a light-hairejl chap, who reminds you more of a preacher than of a medical student, but there is no doubt he can make good at either. He is a quiet fellow and is l cginning to get fat on Pittsburg smoke. A hard plugger. THOMAS LEITH McMCULLOUGH. Pittsburg, Pa. “But mice and rats, and such small (dear). Have been Tom’s food for four long years.” “Tom joined our class in the Sophomore year, and we arc mighty glad iie did, for he is all right. I Ic is quite a hummer with the ladies and it is said that he took a trip to Ireland once on account of some fair damsel, but we do not know how much truth there is in the statement. However, Tom does not say much about it. MALCOLM HAY PHILLIPS. Pittsburg. Pa. “I’ll talk a word with this same learned Theban.” Mai is a small fellow with a big voice. He is a constant user of the weed and hardly waits until class is over to light a cigar (3 for 5). lie likes to make the Professor show him when there is anything lie is not clear on and keeps pro-|X)unding questions until he is convinced. WUNIBALD JOHN PROBST. Hartford, Wis. The lion is not so fierce as they paint him.” Probst is a big. raw-boned, easy-going chap who came to us from out West. Your first impression of him would probably be that he is lazy, but that is just Ins appearance. He gets around pretty lively and has worked up quite a large obstetrical practice. If you do not believe it. ask him. 146 DONALD JOHN RAFFERTY. Pittsburg, Pa. “Man is one world and hath another to attend him.” If you will look at the Junior class picture and pick out the fellow whose photo is taken in profile, that fellow is Raff. He is a tall, broad-shouldered young mar with a wide, sloping forehead. You know the saying about the sloping forehead; but that does not hold good in Raff’s case. Ilis usual cry is “Lc’me that paper, I got a friend I want to hit. BYAN LOWE RAMSEY. Evans City. Pa. “Two hundred pounds and possibilities are good gifts.” “Baby Ram has been in the Inst � f health ever since he got that prescription that was written on the board one day. He weighs about 200 ibs. and is gaining fast. due. as he says, to laughing so much at the jokers (?) in the class. His laugh so much resembles the neigh of a horse that he has received the name. Buck. FRANK SAYLOR ROSSITER. Pittsburg, Pa. “Young in limbs, in judgment old.” Savior is one of our dwarfs, but only in stature, as he has an excellent card to show for the development of his gray matter. It seems to have been a joke, however, for the class to elect him marshal. Imagine him trying to keep Marshall. Edgar. Rafferty, etc., etc., from leaving or entering the room. ALBERT THEODORE SCHMIDT, Pittsburg, Pa. “Give him a wide berth.” “Al,” “Judd. or ‘’Dutch,” whichever you choose, is a stockily-built young man with whom you are more or less familiar on account of his achievements on the gridiron. There is nothing wonderful about Judd as a student, but he gets there just the same. and. barring accidents, he will be hanging out a shingle in about a year and a half. MILTON SYLVESTER SELL, Lcechburg, Pa. ‘“He hath a lean and hungry look. He thinks too much.” Sell is a young man, once seen never to be forgotten; he is such a handsome looker (?). He has anyone in school beaten for talking, with the exception, perhaps, of Marick, of the Senior class. He is continually asking what kind of notes you are taking and if you are getting anything out of the lectures. A hard plug-ger and a g(xxl student. M7 EBERT TAYLOR SIMPSON. Pittsburg. Pa. “He had a head to contrive, a tongue to persuade and a hand to execute any mischief. Sim is a big bunch of good nature, with a lot of sandy hair on top and containing a fair share of knowledge. He is always up to some kind of a trick and his greatest delight is found in picking off stiff hats with a hard rolled newspaper. You can always hank on it that whatever lie throws is traveling at some speed, and not a slow one. AUGUSTUS IRA SLAGLE, Kittanning. Pa. He was a man of unbounded stomach.” This is our (ins. always on time unless his absence is due to sickness. You can pick him out of the class if you come in the lecture room and see a young man leaning over a note book, which is resting on the hack of the scat in front of him. and writing like time. He is a hard plugger and a fair student. LA MONIER SMITH, McKeesport. Pa. “Willing to be classed as a student.” Lam in some respects max he likened unto his namesake, namely, his meekness. his constant desire to he lounging around, and the fact that he must have a shepherd (Stewart) to take care of him. while in other respects he differs considerable inasmuch as he is tall and lanky, always chewing tobacco, swears a little, and occasionally speaks a few words of Knglish. WILLIAM JOHN STEWART. Pittsburg. Pa. Here’s a modest little boy. His mamma’s pride, his papa’s joy. Stewart is always seen leading Smith around except when he leaves the lecture room before the hour is up. which invariably takes place two or three times every day. He has attracted considerable attention lately by asking so many questions, each preceded by a high pitched say. Doctor? He may be a good help to his mother when he grows up. JOHN MURDOCH STEWART, Rossiter, Pa. Hang sorrow! care will kill a cat. And therefore let’s be merry.” Red joined us in the Sophomore year, and the class would lx better if we had more like him.

A jolly good fellow and fair student, and is a member of our class of benedicts. 148 KARL JOHANN SWENSON, Salina, Kan. “They that govern the most make the least noise.” This is the man of whom you probably read in the daily papers last fall, and referred to as the “Little Swede. The feats he performed about that time on the gridiron are nothing to those daily feats of his in the class room. A good student and a tine fellow. Let me give you a word of warning: !� e careful of S wen s’ trusty left. BYRON PORTER WALKER. West Monterey, Pa. The mirror of all courtesy.” “Soap is a gentleman, every inch of his six feet. Of course he may not always be a gentleman, for in alxmt a year and a half he will be a doctor. Soap formerly attended Allegheny College, and must still have a warm sjx)t for the old place, for as sure as the mail comes, so sure is he to get their weekly paper. I he Campus. That’s the right spirit, Soap, and we admire you for it. LEWIS ALFRED WHITAKER. Dravosburg. Pa. “Every man has his fault, and honesty is his.” “Hopeful was always one of our quiet fellows who would not think of saying a word in the lecture room, but something seems to have caused a change for it is hard to keep him quiet now. l� y all laws of nature hit should he fat, for he is always smiling, but on the contrary he belongs to the tall and narrows. WILLIAM THOMAS WOOD, Pittsburg, Pa. “Come not within the measure of my wrath.” Wood may be a chip off the old block, but that does not necessarily signify that he was intended to be the class “cut-up. I le is as meek as a lamb, except when he gets excited, then lie just boils over and shrieks at the top of his voice, lie may be seen always following that wart on his nose. 149 Junior Class, Collegiate and Engineering Department PERCY EARLE BURTT, Allegheny, Pa.

Ruthville, Va. “The way aint sunny, but I don’t fret! Cheer up. honey—You’ll get there yet.” Brown is one of the quiet ones, but not for lack of an opinion. He is a g x d scholar in spite of difficulties. When you want a gentleman, see him. When the dear fellow sees the joke he will always laugh, not yet. but soon. GEORGE SLATER COLEMAN, Allegheny, Pa. “I have met many of those rattles that made a noise and buzzed.—Selected by Percy Earle Burtt. He hath a lean and hungry look. He thinks too much; Such men are dangerous. —Selected by a coed. Solemn, wise old owl, Never cracks a smile.”—Selected by a coed. I5I SARA ELINOR DONALDSON. Bridgeville.

An open hearted maiden, true and pure.” SIDNEY ISAAC KORNHAUSER. Pittsburg. Pa. “I'll speak in a monstrous little voice.” Strenuously busy at all times, but always ready to speak to you. If you want a long and enthusiastic lecture, mention debate, bugology or Mackett. Most unconscionable flatterer, but a true friend just the same. If you wish to know where the girls are, follow bis gaze. Me is your typical college man, except for bis extra brains. ALBERT ADOLPH MULHEIM, West Bridgewater, Pa. “Is full of change, change, change—nothing but change!” folly fellow, always ready to turn around and say. “What?” He is somewhat of a swell dresser in spite of that sleepy look in both bis eyes. Maybe the two things are not opposed to each other, for the boy was trained in Beaver College. Naturally be shies at the sight of a girl! Always seems to be just leaving the building. 153 ANNA MARY RENTSCH, Allegheny, Pa. “Her sunny smile drives care away. HOWARD ALEXANDER KOCH. Sewicklcy, Pa. “A proper man’s picture. But alas— Solomon in all his glory never wore shoes like these. Honestly, now, have you ever seen him without his hands—in his j ockets, his hat—on his head, or Ins pipe—in his mouth, outside of some classes? Then hold up both hands and sweat twice. Hut he is wonderfully improved in the last three years, and there is one thing that he never lacked—lie is pleasant. Mighty glad to see somebody improving at Y. I'. I . WILLIAM SCOTT McGINNESS. Allegheny, Pa. Football ’05, Class Basketball ’05, ’06, ’07. “Don’t never prophesy unless you know. Somewhat more changeable than the Medes and Persians, but “Heine is there all right and can make you laugh whether you will or no. And he is another who looks like a gentleman in spite of it all. 1 le. with Koch, constitutes a chemical section beside which all others pale. They say that they hold a private prayermeeting during chapel time, but there is nothing but the circumstantial evidence of their absence to prove this, and some do not trust the evidence. 54 HENRY HUGH BATES. Cadiz. Ohio. Class President. “More years have made me love the; more.” In him the liuckeyc state has kept up its record for providing great presidents. I lughie owns the class and the class is proud to own him. I le likes the girl (and girls) and the girls (and girl) like (!!!) him. Always has a cold in spite of his warm smile. (lave the number ot his shoes as a 34. Slight mistake, for his heart is not in his shoes. Indeed it is not his heart that he carries. Specialty—eating fudge. Name of maker suppressed. JOHN LEO DESCH. Pittsburg, Pa. See what a grace was seated on his brow. “Handsome Dan” seems great only in recitation, but if you put him at something else, he dazzles the Ix-iiolder. There are more than the professors who think him all right. You may think him a good friend but he can beat that. He appears too quiet for a ladies' man. but tis said he has had no less than thirty affairs resulting finally in a happy engagement, and we have proud anticipations. WILLIAM CLANEY EDGAR. Allegheny, Pa. Cheerfulness is an offshoot of goodness and of wisdom.” Tired, tired, tired!! Smiles so slowly, talks so slowly, walks so slowly! Always happy and undisturbed. I las not been angry for years, but he could be. Xo wasteful expenditure of nerve force. Reminds one of a summer holiday. There seems to be nothing bad about him. and so we leave him standing with his feet wide apart and him smilin', smilin'. 55 REAM DELOSS ESHELMAN, Sewickley, Pa. Mad wag! who pardoned none nor spared the best. And turned some very serious things to jest. Is a gentleman and a ladies' man the same thing? Not always, but in the present case. If it's just the same to you a smiling blonde is preferred, but meanwhile anything will do. Can not keep still when there is an audience for his wit. Vet for all his fun some girl will take him scrioush some time. And, seriously, now, he knows his lessons. RICHARD HARVEY JAMISON. Wilkinsburg, Pa. Class football '05. ’06. Vice-president ’05. ’06. Class Track Team ’05, ’06. Varsity Track Team ’05. ’06. “If I chance to talk a little while, forgive me.” The jester and rhymster of the class, Harv has a new slang expression and new story for every hour in the day. more if you care to listen. Krom whence his supply comes is not known, but from various intuitions it is generally understood that much of it sounds like Gayety trash. (How do you know that?) Jamison is quite a hustler when it comes to getting around the track in a hurry. WALTER GEORGE KANHOFER. Aspinwall. Pa. Class Basketball ’05, '06, ’07. I profess not talking.” lint a few other things arc more in his line. I basketball, for one instance. He comes from the same town as Judge Hufhngton Kissinger and you could not expect two fellows from the same town to have the same characteristics when one of them has them in such abundant quantity. So George Kanhofcr perforce keeps quiet. He has a rep for knowing what he is about and they do say that a young man (?) in----------is a friend (!) of his. only that and nothing more. ALBERT WERNERBURG KEENAN. Pittsburg, Pa. “One may smile and smile and be a villain.” Yes, he smiles and smiles—and he may be anything. The good die young. but Iloss Keenan, like the great Webster (in one thing at least), may say, I yet live. Indeed, he is very lively. An operation will be necessary to get the twinkle out of his eye, and another one to get the fun out of his brain, for Al lias brains. Yes, sir: he thinks he knows things—and he is right. Yet he never seems to be hunting work, no, not work, yet something. I le looks at ease everywhere, even when he is reciting a thing he knows he does not know, just as easy and somewhat funnier. 156 GEORGE BUFFINGTON KISSINGER. Aspinwall, Pa. Everything belonged to him, ’05, ’06, '07. ‘‘At whose sight, like the sun. All others with diminished luster shone.” Ladies’ man! S| orty dresser, always lias white ( ?) silk ( ?) handkerchief in his breast pocket. W ears lx ots worn by George W ashington (see class picture). Sober ( ?) and industrious ( ?). Always tired. Prominent in V. M. C. A. Good natured (he says). Artistic photography a specialty : pretty young ladies excepted. Warm vocabulary, caused, he says, by indignation. Capacity at noon hour—two $ .15 lunches. A sage of great renown, for without Judge lluffington’s golden suggestions in class, the profs, would often teach 11s mam things that are not. Supplies glee in the Glee Club—and elsewhere. 11 is heart is in Montana. ROY CHALMERS SALKELD. Homestead, Pa. He is well paid that is well satisfied.” Said to he so fond of argument that he will not even eat anything that agrees with him. The sounds he makes in chapel are intermittent, but fair to middling while they last, lie is more than likely fond of the feminine, having so little friendship for the masculine line-up. GEORGE EDWARD SHERBON. Millvale, Pa. Class Basketball ’05, ’06, ’07. Class Football ’05. '06. Class Track Team ’05, ’06, ’07. Varsity Track Team ’06. How he docs talk. And run. Having George for his front name you would naturally expect something from him- as you would from anybody else. Millvale is the only spot m this large earth, according to George. A great athlete, if you don’t mind the roughness. The ’ l� ig Dutchman” or “Millvale.” is generally considered to In-improving and has a year yet in our worshipful company. Seems to care whether he has his lessons. Good humor may become chronic with him some time and we wouldn’t call any doctor. KARL HENRY SHRIVER. Beaver Falls, Pa. “Whence is thy learning Hath thy toil O’er books consumed the midnight oil?” He is more earnest than others, and then some. He means to know—sooner or later. Shrivel is noted for the questions he asks the professors and also for some of the information he gives them on request—and otherwise. Holds the record on the long distance kick with a brick-loaded lunch-box. From a distance you would take him for a gentleman, and you would be proud of your good judgment on closer acquaintance. 157 SAMUEL EDGAR VANDIVORT. Wilkinsburg, Pa. Class Basketball ’05, ’06, ’07. Class Baseball Team ’05. “Howe’er it be, it seems to me, 'Tis only noble to be good.” “Sammy is a perfect lady and a fit model for the class to follow. I Ic has never smoked, chewed, or looked on the wine when it was red. On one and only 011c occasion was Sam ever heard to swear. This was made note of and carefully preserved in the class annals. Sammy is true blue, look at his eyes. And he is another who does not disgrace the class in recitation. •58 PHILIP ERSKINE ANGLE. Towanda. Junior Annual, Courant, Y. M. C. A. “Bid me discourse, I will enchant thine car.” Large in mind, body and soul. An admirable story teller, and if he keeps at it Mark Twain had better look to his laurels. “Hello, says lie when you meet him. and goes on. Just as soon as lie gets started he turns around and says, “Say, etc. Gives you an idea that he knows something, and rumor confirms the guess. GRANT CURRY. Pittsburg, Pa. “Language most shows a man; speak, that I may see thee!” W riter of an electrical text book and a treatise on direct current transformers, subject gleaned from lectures heard on his bi-monthly visits to class. JOHN DILWORTH HARLEY, Pittsburg. Pa. “Talkers are no good doers.” If silence is golden, John 1). will have to Ik satisfied with silver or mend his ways. He has an inventive mind and will some day surprise the world with a new system of levers and fulcrums. I f you don't rub him the wrong way he is as nice as the rest of the bunch, hill he has a keen realization of his own rights, all privileges reserved. 59 HARRY DENNY MAGAW, Munhall, Pa. vVhat think you. sirs, of killing time? Tin physical development of some children outstrips the mental growth and leaves the subject mentally deranged. Somehow this floated into my mind in connection with Magaw. No one has a greater appreciation for a joke than has H. 1). lie does not seem to feel like getting mixed up in the thing, but he is interested just the same, if you don't mind. ROSS CHESTER MOHLER. Freedom, Pa. Class Basketball Team ’o.5, ’o6. ’07. Y. M. C. A. A solemn sacrifice nerformed in state. A quiet and altogether good fellow, although a Sabbath school superintendent. A shark in electrical lab and a wonder at electrical connections and short circuits, though he is pretty rapid on the long circuit of the cinder path. JAMES ALEXANDER MORTON, Allegheny. Pa. Baseball ’06. Class Basketball ’05. ’06. ’07. Secy Y. M. C. A. He capers, he dances, he has the eyes of youth. Our ladies' man and a very good hoy. strange concomitants as these may seem. A shiner in physical lab and an artist in the work of the hour beginning at 12:15. EDWIN BAXTER McKEE, Castle Shanon, Pa. Heard if not seen. Jumbo” is best known as the private coach of Hill Met'andlcss. He has made a big man of his pupil, but has meanwhile neglected himself. While few in inches he is long on deviltry of a pleasant type. Great fellow for sport but will not participate in any. probably for fear that McCandless will miss him. As Dr. Webster said in his lecture, the little birds are the bravest. McKee is a bird and his nerve is inversely pro|x rtional to his size. CHARLES MELCHOR ROUTH, Munhall, Pa. Football ’06. This would make mercy swear.” It is a sin to come to school 011 time when you can sleep a few minutes longer. Thus saveth our subject, Pete. and he verily abideth by the same, lie is seldom seen with iiis mouth open and accordingly we know little about his heart—if lie has one. Put from the crowd he is in he might well say. There lias been so much said so badly, that 1 will add nothing.” 160 CLARENCE ALEXANDER BODDIE. Pittsburg. Pa. “I am trying to corner brains.” Clarence is given mostly to all work and no play. Dull boy (?). He even works in chapel. Vet at periods far separated Alexander will come forth with a little rough house, and once in a while, a long while, will hand out a story. There is a legend that he once visited the (Jayety. He is chief skeptic in the Ethics class, but time may work a few miracles with even so sclf-|X)ssessed a youth as 1’oddic. CHARLES LEE INGLEFIELD, Elizabeth, Pa. “Genius and its rewards arc briefly told: A liberal nature and a niggard doom. ()ur bloomin’ business manager. A thin, dark beauty. Always telling us we will have to get something done, which we never fail to fail to do. “Ink” is a great man in spite of his one bum joke. He has a number of free hand drawings to his credit around through our ugly shack. Let us quote the touching extempore sentiment of the bunch who lunch in Taylor’s room, hirst in war. first in | cace, and never in the hands of the Pittsburg police.” Oh. lie stands high in all the people’s hearts, co-eds not exceted if they know a good thing when they see it. Get “Ink” and Eshelman together and watch the electrical display. JOHN EDGAR KNOTT, New Brighton, Pa. “Laugh not too much; the witty man laughs least.” Yes, Knott always quits in the middle of a laugh to tell a better story. He is always looking for something funny and he never looks long in vain. He must look in the looking-glass in the morning, for he always looks slightly trigged up. His looks are deceptive—he looks dark. Most of the words descriptive of Knott seem to be forms of look. 161 DAVID RALPH PRICE. Pittsburg, Pa. “I am lost midst so much learning.” We all hope that Price will soon find himself so that he can become acquainted with that nice youth. We have all found him a real nice boy, equations and all. He is one of the fellows who arc reported as having too percent, when the rest of the class got a re-exam. Price always has time for one thing—a joke, even that bum one of Inglefield. But he works problems while he eats. KOSKIUSKO McCURDY SMITH, Heathville, Pa. “What’s in a name? Yes, Smith is one of the noisiest fellows on the outside of the gloln. ; not the noisiest, but one of them. But he makes a noise like a stump. It has been said that a man of few words is a deep thinker. This may be true. Koskiusko appreciates the joke and is likely to take his turn if there ever is such a thing in that electrical crowd, for six men may get started and discouraged before one has finished his remarks. CHARLES ALEXANDER TURNER, Washington, D. C. ‘‘Kind hearts are more than coronets.” Ilis method is to meet the world with a smile, and it works like a charm. Turner has never found a difficulty which a smile could not overcome. He has been seen, but not heard, to s| eak in the electrical lunching party under cover of six strong young men telling three lies at once to the editor of the “Owl.” 162 HARRY ALFRED BLACKBURN. Oakmont, Pa. Shut up in measureless content.” Somehow you would never know he was there, but there he is and tending strictly to business, his own business. The man actually d x-s not have time to listen to hat Fisher’s kidding stunts, which are the richest kind of humor. Hut if he does not make a reputation for us in Mining Engineering work, nobody will. I say this absolutely without fear of contradiction. 163 Junior Class, Dental Department ROBERT AYRES.

He should he selling pig iron instead of pills. Reported to have almost mastered a pipe. THOMAS GADDESS. Oil City. Pa. “Gad” is a greaser as you would expect from that town.

A., and since here served my apprenticeship in the city of Pittsburg, Pa., for number of three years. Yours, Isadore Gorcnstcin. Isadore is the only man privileged to write his own tale. One thing more might be mentioned. His head has a magnetic power, a power of attracting all loose paper wads, rubber hands, pencils, etc., in the classroom. GEORGE WILLIAM GRIER, Pittsburg, Pa. George is a very nice boy—with a heavy accent on the nice. He never has dislocation of the necktie. Moreover, he has been known to escort a young lady. Why. this remarkable pharmacist tipped his hat to a lady whom he bumped into and upset in the street. Now that’s a fine fellow. 176 JAMES EDWARD GROSS, McKeesport, Pa. “Jim is a terrible enemy of work. It is plain that he is German, for some of his blunders can be explained in no other way. llis hobby is sleeping. LAWRENCE A. HAECKLER, Pittsburg, Pa. “Heck is a good one. I Ie aspires to oratory and may get there, for his voice is husky from eating corn. JOHN BURNETT HAMILTON. Pittsburg, Pa. He is a very studious lad. Yes?

Harrisonburg, Va. “Ham is a $4 man with a $40 motion. We may say, without telling even the whole truth, that he has the largest head in the class. It takes an 8'4 hat to fit it, and then he has to have his hair cut twice a week. MARK C. HANN. West Middlesex, Pa. Hann is a fellow who never sleeps—except in the class room. He is also a geographer of fame, for he can tell every river or creek in Africa. It is rumored that lie fought in the Boer War (that was what prolonged it) and hopes to be a second Oom Haul. • WILLIAM WEBB HAYFORD, Newcastle, Pa. Hays is a man with a tin ear and wooden head, which will turn to charcoal soon if he doesn't dye his hair. A follower of the socialists, but still able to be social. WALTER CLARK HELM, Coraopolis, Pa. 'I'he one man in the class who is a regular attendant on class, has not missed one hour since the beginning. Distinguished looking and a ladies' man, hence he keeps (maybe because he keeps) a silk handkerchief on exhibition in his breast pocket. l77 JAMES HARRISON HENDERSON, Kittanning, Pa. “Ilendy is a fellow who never opens his mouth, hasn’t sense enough to know you must butt in to get a word in. If lie was cut out for a human being, there was a mistake made, as everyone who knows him realizes, for he should not he a dumb animal. A good fellow. ROY EVANS HENDERSON. Avalon, Pa. A kid with a pretty face, hut nothing more. But he is young. All lie thinks of is playing. But he is young. N’ice boy. But he is young. MAX HOECHSTETTER, Braddock. Pa. Germany grows the thistle, and England grows the rose; Ireland grows the shamrock, but IIoechstetter grows—well, he grows, lie i the most important personage in the class. He calls meeting without any little formalities like consulting the president or anyone else. W e all have our faults and don't need to borrow. Hock is the dark horse of the next national presidential campaign, lie will remain the dark one. PAUL EDWARD CHARLES HOMAN. Pittsburg. Pa. “Home is a very good scout and is without doubt largely made of sauerkraut and so Dutch that he can not speak German. Das iss der Selinitzelburg. FRANK ELTEN HULME, Newcastle, Pa. His only fault is that he knows more than others. He should be traveling with Robinson Crusoe—or some other poet. ROY HERBERT HUTZLER. Butler, Pa. Fresh from the farm and likes the city very well. Although he is not wild lie is sometimes drawn away to the Duquesne Garden and other places. Rather nice fellow. THOMAS FRANCIS JACKSON, Mars, Pa. “Tom takes the basket ball team to his home planet and there fills them up to the neck with—you know.

Tom likes it. 178 PHILLIP SHERIDAN KEFOVER, Uniontown, Pa. “Keef knows every waitress in town, lie is very well posted—on matinee dates, ball games, etc. His ambition is on a level with that of a mosquito. He would make a second weary wiggles, but bis parents won’t let him run out of money. BENJAMIN FRANKLIN KELLY. Pittsburg. Pa. “Ben is one of the wee with a voice like a bird, so charming that it draws to him all loose buns, bricks, boxes, tin cans or anything else in the vicinity which may be moved in his direction.

RALPH COPPAGE KNISELY, New Philadelphia, Ohio. Knisely is the moke who, when the girls look cross-eyed at him. gets red in the face (i. e., be blushes) and makes himself scarce. He is one of the bunch. CHARLES BURNETT KREY. Allegheny. Pa. Krey is a good fellow, but his neighbors generally take in their clothes lines when he is in a bad humor, which is characteristic of his famous birthplace. THOMAS CHRISTOPHER KURTZ, Pittsburg, Pa. Kurtz is a trained bouncer. He was one from the first day of his life, for then he was pronounced a bouncing boy. He is a second Kill Xye. WILLIAM LATON, Wilkinsburg, Pa. He is a man who always looks things up, a regular grind, but not so bad for all that. A man’s a man for a’ -that. GEORGE HENRY LIEBERT, Philadelphia, Pa. “Rags is one of these characters who never say, “Come and have one, but on the other hand lie never refuses such an invitation. It certainly is a treat to see him and Miller walk down street arm in arm. Licbert is a good soul anyway. 179 HARRY DOP LUCAS. Greensburg, Pa. Lucas is the pool shark of the class, i. e., he plays a great deal—when he can get someone easy to play with, lie will forego a matinee to play a few games!! However, lie is a pretty fair proposition. ROY FRANCIS MARTHENS, Homestead, Pa. He would be considered an enemy of work, if they met often enough to get the slightest acquaintance. II is highest ambition is to he a policeman—mounted, and then if lie couldn’t be arrested, he could make an arrest which would insure some variety in life. CLEMENT JOSEPH MEADOWS. Berkley Springs, W. Va. 11 ere is a ease where the fine goods have come in a small package. Although C. .1. is a great cut-up outside, he becomes a tongueless man inside the class room. Really, lie is the right kind. EARL HOMER MECKLEM, Rochester, Pa. “Meek” is reported to have been educated in Heaver county, hut it is known that they have far better institutions than that in the above mentioned place. But while we object to slandering that school, we like him as a fellow. ISADORE MENDELSOHN. Roumania. Gentlemen, this is a very fine imported article. But his pride in his high Latin average causes us to remember that Latin comes easy to a Roumanian. FRANK HERBERT MILLER. Beaver Falls, Pa. I lerc is a case of quality in quantity—in quantities. I le is a ladies' man. All the girls in the Mercy I lospital wait at the windows to sec him go past; indeed, all the girls do. from the Union Depot to the college. He has a patent pending for a wheelless bicycle. He has our best wishes in all these matters. RINARD THOMAS MOFFITT. Duquesne, Pa. Xot because his hair is curly, nor because his eyes half close; not because lie's by and burly, never sure just what he knows; no, we can’t assign particular reasons why we love him so. His features change twice a week, and it is a good thing. Moffit always has his hammer knocking. 180 DANIEL OSBURNE MORGAN, Pittsburg, Pa. Morgan is a sample sized fellow. He is a ladies’ man and knows more girls than any other fellow in the class. It has been reported that he goes to church with Mrs. 1)----. Good luck, Dan. CHARLES RUTH MURRAY, Washington, Pa. “Chuck” is so religious (most pious in the class) that he won't loaf with the boys, for they swear too much. Such scruples are not popular, but they are creditable. BERNARD MacDONALD. Boston. Mass. McSwecney says he is not Irish, but we give him the benefit of any doubt, lie was brought up bv a Dutchman. Mac is a dog fancier, has the best bulldog in the county (if you are willing to take his word for it). Me is very much in love with the vegetarian diet of ham and baked beans, and has also been known to walk away with thirty dozen eggs at one time. LEONARD SHRYOCK McCUNE, Pittsburg, Pa.

WILLIAM McVAY, Bellaire, Ohio. “Rill came from the place of good air. although it is known to be the dirtiest place on the globe.

Oss” is the religious crank of the class. lie would rather argue religious cpiestions than eat. drink or be merry. It is not certain what religion he follows, but it is one of three—Mormon. Feet-washcrs or Fire-worshippers. Tie does have good qualities. 181 A. V. OWEN, Pomeroy, Ohio. The man with the large name, who says that when he wants anything, lie knows where to get it. lie suggests the restaurant as a place for something to eat, the saloon for drink, the hank (or home) for money and we suppose that if he wants work, he will hunt the workhouse. HOMER JOHN PARR, Crafton, Pa. Parr is a long, lean, lanky youth, who is sadly in need of sense. It is rumored that he is married, and one might believe it of him. CHARLES EGBERT PAISLEY, Newcastle, Pa. In one respect man is the nearest thing to thee. We don't understand why nature does such poor work, but as we have to be satisfied, we have turned to and liked Paisley. Why not? JOHN BRATTON PARKS, Leechburg, Pa. “Doc” is the man with sideburns which lie is wearing because of a dare (from fear of trouble with his prospective). He is well liked by the fellows, though considered handsome by the laundry girls. Our vice president. WLADYSLAV PIETKIEWICZ, Pittsburg, Pa. Some call it a man, others can’t call it, the rest just laugh. 11 is name you can see and so guess his looks. “Piet is an artist. An agreeable sort of l eing. CHARLES EDWIN PRICE, Braddock, Pa. Mr. Price isn't in it with a mosquito for sense, but as a tenor vocalist he rivals Chauncey Olcott or Andrew Mack. A good fellow, though he is from Braddock. CHESTER MERLE RAISLEY. Beaver Falls, Pa. Manager and captain of football team and also on basket ball team. “Raise went to a Youngstown squire, asked to be hung and was hooked. Paisley really is not married, but his wife is, though, if she knew him as well as she should, she would never have done it. He is a good fellow and will sometime be lively after while; he was just married on Feb. 12. 182 RAYMOND RALSTON. Rochester, Pa. Ralston is a regular attendant and a ladies' man. Notice, lie's both of those things all at once. You would guess where he came from, if you should ever see his movements. FRED KIMBLE REICHARD, Allegheny, Pa. Rcichard is a peculiar duck: he can sleep, snore, talk and at the same time take notes on the lecture (nobody ever saw the notes), lie even keeps quiet during Saalbach’s quizzes. How strange! Yes, hut he is pretty nice. FRED REIF, ' Allegheny, Pa. Keif is the man who put the chewing gum in Goldstien’s hair. He is so cross-eyed, that the tears run down the back of his neck.

He may study hard, hut it hasn’t caused him to waste away at all; so. though he may----. The class chose him as their representative wit. He certainly is quite representative, hut as to the wit—well, if you have plenty of time at your disposal, get a lunch and wait, for he came from the hustling metropolis of Reaver Falls. Rulie—to use his own favorite expression—is a good scout. HOMER RAMSEY RUMBAUGH, Mt. Pleasant, Pa. Homer is a very good hoy, and he would look more at home as a minister. His mother says she is proud of him. ■83 ELMER ELLSWORTH SANDBACH. Butler, Pa. Basketball manager, lie is a good fellow, though his feet arc not mates.

Scheibler is a good fellow and will he a very promising young man when he has added a few more years to his string. He is very typical of his race— the Dutch. WILLIAM FRANK SCHOLZ, Pittsburg, Pa. Scholz is a man with untold qualities, a great student—of human nature, especially the feminine division, lie is not married, but he is ready for the sacrifice. We wish him success. WILLIAM JOHN SCHRECK, Allegheny, Pa. A crazy sort of being. With a book in his hand he acted as drum-major for a crowd of lunatics going down Fifth Avenue. Every time he opened the book the bunch tipped their hats. It was about 5:45 I . M.. and the department stores were just closing. So “Bugs” opened the book about forty times a minute. Xow, what do you think about his head? SAUL SEEGMAN. Pittsburg, Pa. Saul means all right, but somehow nobody takes the same meaning out of his actions.

He never molests anyone—to their face. CLARENCE ALFRED STITT. Munhall, Pa. Stitt is a man without anything to show his nationality. Some describe him as Dutch, some class him with the wearers of the green. We don't pay any attention to what he says. JOHN FRANKLIN TANNEHILL, Allegheny, Pa. “Tan” is a man. i. e.. you would suppose that when looking at him, but when hearing him you think he must be six or maybe six and a half years old.

Because she is a Sophomore and can't do otherwise: She says she'll be a teacher, but to tell the truth we’ll doubt it, Until we’re able to report, just what he thinks about it. 203 DOROTHY CATHERINE PAULIN, Her favorite author is Euclid, l or novels she cares not a fig; She prefers “analytics to dancing, And would go without dinner for “trig: She loves to dilate on the unmarried state. The blessings of spinsterhood teaching, I hit her present deportment would lead us to think That her practise conies wide of her preaching. MARION LINDSAY. She sees the purple polkadots, and lines of red and blue Upon a fungus that to us seems of a saffron hue. As pioneer botanical, she easily leads the way. Her finds computed averaging some twenty-five per day. In euchre, bridge, and cribbage slic'd give Hoyle new points on pi She’s a sharper, so she tells us. in the jxikcr player’s arts. But we surmise, her interest in these pastimes really centers In diversions such as “holding hands, or better, holding hearts. GEORGE MALCOLM SHAW. A chemical savant is Shaw, An artist in acids and gases; With the darlingest sideburns that maid ever saw I le’s a popular man with the lasses, In the Glee Club his talent upblazes, His dancing calls forth Coed praises, And high as his singing his kangaroo springing Instructors and students amazes. 204 JEROME ALEXANDER QUAY BOLAND. With a long and historic cognomen Jerome, Alexander, and Quay, Comes Boland who hails from the lulls and the dales Of a place called M organza. Pa. He's a studious fellow and quiet. But he ought to be shunned like the plague, I'or smoking a pipe that’s abnormally ripe. And which smells like an elderly egg. EDGAR CARL CANNON. ()h, a big gun is Cannon with a voice to lit the title And virtues of the which our space docs not permit recital. Endowed with good, gray braincclls and a disposition mellow, “The speaker is a popular and well regarded fellow. JAMES GARFIELD DECKER. A gallant tar on a man-of-war. Sing, 11o for a life on the stormy brine. Was Decker before he came ashore. And joined the class of nineteen nine. He can stretch his smile for half a mile And his mind in like proportion is elastic; He's an Alpha Alpha fratcr, loyal to the alma mater. And a devotee of everything gymnastic. 205 WILLIAM JOSIAH McCANDLESS. McCamlless, Delta Kappa, i a lady's man of note. Mis specialties are basketball and dancing, As captain of the ‘“varsity ’ his talents shine afar. While his rooting is declared to be entrancing. Unto ties of noisy lutes, unto glaring yellow shoes, And to teaching “ Fresh” their place, he is addicted, With the track team of last season, though we fail to see the reason, You will find his jolly countenance depicted. GUY STANLEY McFEETERS. A member of the orchestra is jolly (Juy McEeeters, With the dreamy eye that marks the true musician. Coed's say he dances finely, and he warbles most divinely, While to be a friend to everyone’s his mission. ELMER LOWE McINTYRE. The pink of all propriety, The minion of society, And deep set youthful piety, Is Mr. McIntyre. The “profs all find him dutiful The Coeds think him beautiful; His favorite sport is dodging class, Of this he does not tire. ALMOS DAVIDSON NEELD. Of temperament artistic. But with manners pugilistic And a secret, deep ambition on the tragic boards to tread; If he e'er drops engineering. In Ricnzi’s Speech appearing. O ye shades of Booth and Garrick close your eyes and stop your hearing. CHARLES WOODWARD SPRINGER. “You’re a football man.” say we. Springer answers. “Certain-lee.” In the manner which he uses when a prof he tries to “goach. Eke in track and basketball Self-named champion of all. I le feels called upon at seasons to explain things to the “coach. In his course lie’s quite selective, ever choice and fancy free. English, Ethics, Gym and German, mingled with Astronomy; With these credits Springer hopes to capture his degree. 206 CHARLES WILLIAM SUPPLEE. A quiet lad, who solemn as an owl Studies his lessons, and looks wise in class, But wakes the echoes with barbaric howl, When football games or track meets come to pass. Mis greatest trial lies within his name. It’s the one thorn upon his rosy way, l-'or he believes it is a burning shame. That folks won’t sound that double “c as “a. WILLIAM BAUGHMAN. A musical genius is Baughman, The violin’s absolute master. And ’tis Willie alone with his full tenor tone That keeps “Berger's Band from disaster. ()f the Soph's vast finance he is warder. And loyal to up to the end; O, a lovable fellow is Billy, And lit to be any man’s friend. JOHN HAROLD McELHINNEY. He entered as a “Fresh.” they say, Geneva, Beaver Falls, Pa.. But having tasted of her cup. Reformed by coming here to Wup. The Sophomores his play applaud In basketball and football squad; He dwellcth in the highest story Within “our only dormitory. THOMAS EDWIN RENTON, JR. A handsome lad is Tommy R. To dazzle maiden's eyes ; A leader of society, a connoisseur of ties. Red. green, orange, blue and twenty other dyes. Phi Xcta Phi is Tommy’s frat. Of friends he has no lack; He’s a carefree, jolly fellow, with a liking for the track. High hurdle, low hurdle, to the wire and back. 208 ROBERT GEORGE DAVID MUELLER. WILLIAM FREDERICK MUELLER. Bob is fat and Bill is thin. But the 6x8 inch grin That is common to their faces, Shows the Mueller boys are kin. Bill in hockey takes the bays, Bob prefers less strenuous ways In athletics (such as eating) and the lighter sort of plays. They are always seen together And together seek for trouble. Raising dust, police, and Cain, In a snorting auto-bubble. WALTER CAMPBELL RENTON. The pealing organ answers to his fingers. The piano is obedient to his hand: lie’s a member of the justly famous Glee Club And a tenor in Herr Berger’s German Band.” Xo occasion’s quite complete without his music, His services with cheerfulness he lends. 'The girls, it seems, are very fond of Walter. And all the profs and students are his friends. JOSEPH LEO RISACHER. He’s so quiet, you would hardly note his presence. He says nothing when discussion waxes hot; But when it comes to lessons or athletics, Joseph I., is always ready on the spot. He and Wallace are the closest of companions, Each to each essays the role of loving brother; They’re securely tied together by the strongest kind of tether. And you’ll never see the one without the other. LAWRENCE WESTCOTT ROESSING. A basketball player is Roessing, He keeps his opponents all guessing. With a jerk and a shamble, a leap and an amble In a way that to foes is distressing. And he pays, may we mention, To girls no attention, Which, truly, for us is a blessing. 209 JOHN WEBER, JR. In a Perrysville car, if it e’er be your fate, To meet of a morning John Weber—you’re late. 11 is faith in the early bird story's infirm, And anyhow what use has lie for a worm? • In class he stands high, but finds leasure to shine, In gym work and track for old nineteen and nine. ROY LEECH WILLOCK. O'er the class he presides, and what ever betides, He keeps old ’09 in the van; lie is always at work, he don’t know how to shirk, O11 the Con rant, lie’s a chief business man. For the hurdles and track he possesses a knack. And also a pride justifiable; He’s a foe to all fakes, and the statements he makes Will be found to be always reliable. Electrical Laboratory JAMES RENWICK McINTOSH MARTIN. ()f amplest avoirdupois And bearing sedate and judicial Is Martin who writes on all “candidate lists” His ponderous four-fold initial. I le’s ready for football and eating. I le's always on time for debate, I Jut when he conies down to mere lessons, He’s often a half hour late. WILLIAM PRICE PARR. A bang and a rattle, a thud and a jar. And a voice like the trumpet of doom's day—that’s Parr; ’Though his face bears the broadest of grins, in reality, He’s possessed of a serious, sober mentality; His basketball skill he delighteth to show, I Jut he steps on himself when attempting to throw. FREDERIC JACOB WALLACE. I lave you heard of Frederic W allace, 1 le the wonderful, sweet singer. W ho adorneth with his presence All the concerts of the Glee C lub, all the meetings of the choir? W ho delighteth not in raiment of the coarser common nature. I Jut doth sport his rich tuxedo, matter not what the occasion. He it is who gives new courage to the squeaky coed choir. Ami with patience tries to follow the wild chords of Big Chief Berger. Quiet, studious, friendly, loyal. Is this gallant singer, Wallace. 2i I BERNARD KRAMER. From the realm far of the Russian czar 11 is course to westward steering, Hernarcl Kramer came to W'up To study engineering. He has bravely wrung from a foreign tongue, It’s knowledge with patient labor. And now in class he takes his stand, A peer of every neighbor. WALDEMAR WILLIAM ZIEG. “A fellow of infinite jest” is Xieg; His laugh's always fresh, though his jokes may be old. In football and track, in committee and gym. He guards I’ni’s colors, the blue and the gold. His favorite pursuit, when the jersey lie doffs. Is joshing the Coeds and bluffing the profs. 212 Freshman Class, Medical Department The Class of 1910 Med will go down in history as being the first to encounter the wave of reform, which is pervading all America, and has also entered our portals. Scarcely had the class 1x en organized and down to work, ere we hear rumors bearing the startling intelligence of anti-ponying. Some were wont to discredit it. others through fear awaited patiently for the culmination of events, which proved to us that the rumors were true, alas! Had we met our Waterloo? Decidedly no. We proved that in spite of the reform, we were still able to come out and say, We have met the enemy and they are ours.” I hit the greater reward came when some of the professors handed out the gratifying words that in point of intelligence the Freshman Class of 1907 ranks higher than many in recent years. Athletically the Meds of 1910 have maintained a high standard. The class has furnished men for the football, basketball and hockey teams, and they earned their right to permanent places in the teams; and we also have men who are capable of twirling the ball or swinging the big stick. The class also scores a point on its cosmopolitan showing, being able to furnish Swedes. Heines. ITunkies, Dagos. Switzers. Swein Kopfs. Reporters and one man from Steubenville, but it is not his fault that he is here; his father is a graduate of an Ohio varsity, but the son comes to W. U. I', because “pop vows it is the best medical college between the Missouri and the I‘due Ridge. That’s going some, but then the spirit of the times teaches speed, and the Freshmen Meds have some to give away. Just ask our friend Snapper Johnston and vou will get a convincing reply. One deplorable feature of the first year class, and one we feel sharply, and all deeply regret, is the number of our class who fell victims to disease. Sev- 215 cral were compelled to drop out for this session. Fever clutched over half a dozen. Every fever ease that develops is only another hell ringing: out its warning. and brings back the words of our professor in hygiene most forcibly, when he warned us not to drink any water out of the spigots in the college. Incident-dly an upper classman has been looking up an alleged law requiring colleges to furnish filtered water for their students. I Ie is still searching, and the boys are still drinking (water out of the spigots). Xow the social standing of the Freshman Mods. IIow could our prospects be other than the best in the college when we have six young ladies in our class whom the god of beauty has so lavishly blessed, as to cause the beauty seeders of the upper classes to loiter around our doors, and ever and anon walk up the hill, wrapped in sweet communion, or. if perchance it is icy. lending a willing arm to avoid accidents? Hut. however this may be. we will forgive them, for even the I’rot's are not averse to bestowing a smile or two to enlighten their paths. Just the same they belong to the Freshman Class, and we exercise no liberties when we call them Our Girls.” Hut now we must not forget to say a word in behalf of our worthy officers. First our President. Mr. A. R. Cratty, a man of intrinsic value, a man who is thoroughly posted on all points, capable of meeting all obstacles and overcoming them, a man who can make a speech that would still the flowery tongue of a Demosthenes or a Cicero, and whose judicial ability would have startled I Mack-stone. Our Vice-President. Mr. I layden. a man with an iron will, which renders him capable of controlling the class even better than our friend Dr. Dickey, and that perpetual smile and ever-ready humor puts one in mind of Mark Twain. Xow as for our Secretary. Miss Dranga. who has so carefully guarded the class interests and burned midnight oil writing up details of meetings. Truly. President Roosevelt could be proud to have such an one for Secretary of his Cabinet. For me to mention any more of her glowing acquirements is useless, for she needs no eulogy; she speaks for herself. Last but not least our Treasurer. Dr. Paul Livingston. I need only mention his name, his ability as an extemporaneous speaker has won for him a fame as lasting as the hills. Ilis ability also in matters of pecuniary moment could not be excelled, his methods even surpassing those of J. P. Morgan. 216 CLA55 POLL Allison. Miss Viola X. Tarentum. I'a. Almquest, B.

A short time before his death the students sent him something to remember them by till he should return to his place. When he received the gift be expressed hearty appreciation, then told of his work for the University and the stu dents, showing aspirations and Christian ideals worthy of a man of far greater opportunities. “I have faithfully in all my twenty-five years of service tried to be ready and willing, gentlemen, to do what 1 could for every student. I think 1 state the truth, gentlemen, when 1 say that 1 was always as ready to do a favor for one student as for another. I sought earnestly to be as much help as possible and never a hindrance. While he did have a love for fine words, he had far more a love for that which is beyond words. His heart was loyal in the service he gave us and our hearts will ever hold him in loving remembrance. 236 The Greek Letter Fraternities represented at The Western University of Pennsylvania.

POLITICAL CLUB The Political Club of the Western Cniversity of Pennsylvania was recently organized, and has promptly taken its place among the university organizations. As its name implies, the purpose of the Club is political, although, of course, it is not actuated by any partisan purposes. Questions of economic, political and sociological importance are discussed at the meetings and great interest is manifested in vital questions of the day. The Political Club is considering seriously the plan of entering the great Federation of Political Clubs, which embraces all the larger universities and colleges in the United States. . Dr. A. S.

I ’ress Agent Director of the Combined Clubs THE GLEE. BANJO AND MANDOLIN CLUBS OF 1906-07. Never before in the history of the Western Cniversity of Pennsylvania ha there been such a successful aggregation of musicians representing the higher arts of their alma mater. From the first rehearsal on. there has been displayed the highest interest and spirit, on the part of the boys, to make another grand success, as was the club of 1905-06 Director Sulzner has selected the best music to be had. that full of snap and college spirit and having a harmonious air. which i taken care of by the host of good voices and well-handled instruments. There has not been a concert held around Greater Pittsburg by any college clubs that could take a stand with the W. C. P. concert held at Carnegie Hall this year. This shows that these clubs well deserve the praise of the Cniversity and alumni, for they hold up the school’s reputation for being an institution full of talent, as well as skill, 'file day is near at hand when every good undertaking made under the Old Gold and I Hue shall be crowned with success. It is readily seen that the outside world is beginning to believe the same, for every place the Club goes, it is welcomed with crowded houses, and houses full of spirit and good feeling. So far this year the club has given entertainments at New Castle, Sharon. Carnegie Hal!. Pittsburg. I.eechbtirg. Vandergrift. Allegheny, Pennsylvania College for W omen.

In the hottest part of it I caught a first glimpse of the dome of the Allegheny ()l� scrvatorv from the Pittsburgh end of the Sixth street bridge. The distance looked wearisome to a tired traveler from the East, but the course up Federal street and so on and out was plain enough. Equally plain was the method of getting there—walking. I arrived at length to see this—a domed center throwing out a wing east and west and an excavation for the first addition, completed before winter. It was a modest plant, indeed, but already marketing its product, supplying correct time to cities and railroads on a more extensive scale than anywhere else in the country. There was a serious interruption of some months to observation with the equatorial, then oik of the great telescopes of the country. The object glass was stolen in the night, early in July, but fortunately was recovered in fair shape. After necessary repairs it was again put in place and work on the sun was resumed, drawing spots and making a beginning of the investigations on solar radiation, with the thermopile. The day of the bolometer, the photograph and the great spectroscope had not arrived; but the best that could be done anywhere was being done here. W itness, for example. Professor Langley's now classical drawing of a typical sun-spot, a composite of sketches and drawings made by him with the eye at the telescope. This is in brief the record for the three years to Sept., 1875. when impersonal relation to the work closed. But reminiscence is requested rather than history. On the first occasion of meeting the best individual friend the I’nivcrsity has ever had. during the first summer, a remark of his was a play upon names, “Strange to have on the same day. and in August, a Thaw and a Frost so near together. I first met that good friend of the I’niversity, and of everylxxly. Dr. Brashcar. looking up. if memory serves me rightly. Butherford's papers on silver-glass specula. I do not recall the muddy lxx ts or “red bandana of his own story of a visit, probably another occasion. The district round about was sparsely settled, country, in fact. Migratory and predatory cows made rather easy entrance to the acres of pasturage about and 1k -longing to the observatory reserves, often at an unreliable gate about where the stone steps at the foot of the path to the university now are. This was an abomination to the director, Dr. Langley; and the present campus was at an early day 307 dedicated to the chase and the race, by the activities of the writer, in connection with the aforesaid cattle, in promoting: their vacation of the premises. It was afterwards recorded that the bolometer could easily and accurately indicate the radiations from the body of a cow at a considerable distance. If the experiment was ever actually tried, the distance must have l cen great or the test made by another than the director. The urban owner of a cow coveted our domain for a pasture, and for hire. In the absence of the director, he first consulted with the assistant, stating his wishes. He. lacking original authority, suggested writing to the absent director. Several weeks later the correspondence is shown to the assistant. His self-esteem, the very natural feeling of an A. 15. of but a few weeks' standing, is violently assailed—the seeker after pasture privileges refers jauntily to him as “the boy. I he shock almost killed—“Mother. A l)ook of quips and jibes may perhaps find place lor tilings like this without disturbing the general plan. We meet for the serious consideration of affairs as a rule, but the motley may lx donned on occasion, and occasionally. The bird of wisdom with solemn open eyes needs but the partial dropping of one lid to change portentous gravity to a sign of recognition of the lighter side of things. 3°S A Flying Trip Through the Medical Department The (Juide meets the party at 28th and Liberty just as they are alighting from the Kxpress. T he (iuide. of course, takes charge immediately, and they start up the hill. This is about the manner in which things were explained. “Now, ladies and gentlemen, after we plow through the smoke and dirt on tluN bridge we will have only about a mile to go to reach the school. ( )i course, the Railways Company would have cars running up to school for the use of the ten thousand students, but the faculty thinks the walk will do the boys a heap of good. “What did you say? Oh, no! that is not the school, that is the West Penn Hospital; these buildings were too small for the school, so we had to find other quarters. “Do not get excited, madam, it is not going to rain. This is sunshine weather up here. What you have taken for rain clouds is simply clean smoke from the mills and the thousand locomotives over the hill. Now if you will kindly get into this boat, the captain will land us safely on the other side of this mud puddle. “Ladies and gentlemen, you are now before the famous Medical Department of the Western I’niversity of Pennsylvania. “What’s that? I should say it is not a jail, that stone wall is intended to keep the stilTs from getting away, for they get strong sometimes; as for the students, it is hard to chase them home in the evening after school hours, especially after listening to one of Dr. Ingram’s three-hour lectures. “The buildings you hear across the street and a little way up the avenue are Fraternity Houses, and contain consignments of llcdlam’s excess. “Now if you will kindly follow me. we will pass through this magnificent doerwav to the inside of the building. No, madam, there is no smoke house connected with the college, that odor is due to creosote, used in the Pathological Laboratory which you will notice just to the right. In this room the boys spend hours looking through microscopes, but never see anything. “To the left you will find the nearest thing to a smoke house connected wil'n the school. This room is intended for the students, in which to while away their many leisure hours, smoking, chewing, eating or playing games. You will notice the fine outlay of furniture in this room. “Passing up this short flight of stairs you will notice the boiler house and col I storage plant. The storage plant is at the rear of this room and in it. each occupying a separate berth, are our silent friends. The balance of the room is used as a boiler house. This, of course, is a sham, for there is plenty of hot air generated throughout the building. “We will now pass up this flight of stairs, and just before you is our magnificent postoffice (daily circulation. 10.000 letters). Around this corner to the left is another Pathological Laboratory. In this room the Freshmen show Dr. Ingram how to mount specimens. “Across the way is the Chemical Laboratory, the bee-hive of the College. In here the boys remove their coats, roll up their sleeves and get down to work, making nice colored mixtures and lots of suffocating fumes. 'Pile gentleman you sec in the midst of that crowd of young men. explaining sonic intricate problem. is Prof. Koch. Phis is the third time he has explained the problem and is willing to repeat his explanation, if they do not understand it. Pile gentleman with the stern look and wearing glasses, whom you will notice at this end of the room, is Prof. Judd. No, lie is not angry, that is just his natural expression. “Around this corner is the Chemical Hall, in which are given lectures in Chemistry and other studies. You may think that black-board is a large one. hut it is often too small for some of Prof. Koch’s outlines. “We will now continue up to the second floor and here you will notice the Meld, McCullough Laurent book stores. In buying books here be careful of these sharks. Here you will also notice the bulletin board. It is possible the notices pinned to the board were straight and neat once upon a time, blit they are now so many years old and the hoys so often take exception to the neatness of the hoard that they have taken all shapes and colors. “Next we conic to the P� ig Room. You will notice the boys have on their overcoats and collars turned up. Phis is the ice ljox of the school. It is always ten degrees below Zero in here. The chairs in this room are of the latest collapsable style (at least one a day collapses). These chairs arc of good quality, at least they ought to be; the students of each class for the last five years have paid a dollar or two apiece for them. “We now come to the Office and. ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce ‘Snapper’ Johnston, Superintendent, Ways and Means Department, for the running of school, also Miss Cahill, our stenographer. Although many of the students are at odds with ‘Snapper.’ he. nevertheless, is a fine old gentleman, and he must be strict at times, so as to keep the building on its foundation. “Passing out this way we come to the notorious Amphitheatre. The continued droll sound you hear is Dr. Ingram delivering a lecture to the Junior class. Allow me to introduce Dr. Ingram, the guiding star of every bresh- 3IQ man class. You will notice the seats in this room are of the finest upholstered variety and are very comfortable. Each seat, also, has an arm rest, on which to lay your note book when taking notes. Passing through this room and around this hall-way we conic to the Pharmaceutical Laboratory where, every Thursday morning, the Lrcshmcn give a concert under the leadership of Dr. Wesley. Passing up these stairs we come to the Dissecting Room. Walk right in. no one will say anything, they are all dead ones in here. You will notice the pleasant odor in this room, also take especial notice of the fine sanitary equipment. We now come to the attic, and in this room, the Pathological Laboratory. Dr. Rhodes teaches the Sophs and Presides how to stimulate the periphery. In the other part of the attic is the Bacteriological Laboratory, where the Sophs learn how to cook. 'Their bill of fare ranges from bouillon to baked Bacillus Typhosus. That little machine over there is the Autoclav. It was originally brought up here for the reason that when it blows up it will not have to travel so far to reach the roof. “Now, ladies and gentlemen, we have completed our tour through the Medical Department, and I hope you have enjoyed it. In the near future we hope to he settled in our new quarters in the heart of the City, and we would he glad to have you come to see us. O. don't mention it. Glad to have been of service. Good-bye. The great Boy Dentist lie's always called, And lie this names deserves. For he is busy up at school I i is work—lie teeth preserves. lie goes to the Pittsburg Dental School. Is a studious little lad; He knows his books from front to back So well—well, we all feel sad. Mere Physiology seems his cinch. And Anatomy the same. He says Materia Medica To him is really tame. 311 Of Chemistry—we need hardly state, Me knows that through and through, And Modern Science lie knows all about, Organic and In—ditto, too. lie has Infirmary work, I've heard, 'That is mighty hard to beat; He does the work both well and fast And. best of all, it is always neat. lie manufactures bridges and crowns And can make the finest plate; Me fills your teeth with gold and cement, And docs it while you wait. He fills your teeth both front and back, Chock—a block and full. Then taking his profession's way, Your leg lie’ll always pull.

M. Smith, the only married man in the class.) Object.—To find the efficiency of a washing machine. References.—K. M. Smith, vol. 3, page 960; J. E. Knott, page 300, par. 23: ('. A. P.oddic's Handbook of Domestic Science, part i. pages 18-25: Shriver's Household Economy, par. 82. Apparatus.- Washing machine. 10 pairs greasy overalls, 3 blankets, 4 pairs pajamas, 6 bright red undershirts. Allegheny River water, a good strong arm or perpetual motion machine. ‘t heory.—The efficiency of any machine is equal to the power output : the power input. The input is measured by the soreness of the operator's arm. the output by the number of whole pieces left. Ifx=no. of overalls, y—no. of pairs of pajamas, z=no. of undershirts, then (x K1 — efficiency, where K,—friction co-efficient depending on make S (arm) J of machine and S (arm)—soreness of arm (measured in ergs). Instructions:—Get up at 5:30 A. M. Thaw out the pipes and draw Allegheny River water. Examine carefully all parts of the machine and oil all bearings (to avoid overheating). Place all the clothes lying around in the machine, and after making sure that all connections are connected, turn the crank with a right-handed screw motion (or in counter clockwise direction). Care must be taken not to stop the machine during the operation. If the machine shows a tendency to slow down, reverse direction of driving maintaining a constant torque an 1 the machine will run normal. Should the load prove excessive, stop the machine immediately by some means and call your wife, 'fake readings every fifteen seconds (observing color of water, stiffness in arm, etc.) and record. Plot the curve of efficiencies for all loads and at all speeds, using ordinates for loads and abscissas for speed. Plot another curve using for ordinates the washing machine and for abscissas an Irish washwoman. If the efficiency falls below yy(, the machine must be discarded. (.Vote.) In all experiments of this kind, the stray power loss due to friction, windage, cussing and general profanity must be taken into account. 313 A Disappointed Bachelor’s View 3T4 Discussions.—K. M. Smith, page 83, par. 24. asserts that his wife claims “that the machine is most efficient when carrying a considerable overload and driven at high speed. a statement which he himself denies. ()n the other hand, Boddie’s Handbook shows a mathematical demonstration of the efficiency. The work done in any instant is equal to X cos pds, where X is constant force impressed on crank, 0 is angle through which the crank has turned, and ds distance moved in the infinitesimal instant of time. ds = y dx +dy Hence work done =j' fx co 1,1 V dx- | dy‘ Then W=f ° f ° x cos VdxM x la J n J a 1 Integrating and substituting W=2 nr x, for each revolution or (2 nr) (xn) where 11=110. of revolutions per hour. Boddic further states that the machine is more efficient when driven by a wife, as indicated by speed readings taken by himself at intervals of 15 minutes (his wife maintaining a constant speed on the crank). We rather question this last statement, because it would lead to a differential of opinion between him and his wife; the second or third differential of opinion would lead to dispute, and hence, as the destruction of the machine would probably be the direct result, this case could hardly be a fair normal test. Shriver maintains that water is not the only liquid which has cleansing properties, and he further asserts that any liquid with a specific gravity of 1.2 or less will accomplish the same results. He suggests that the machine be driven by an electric motor, or that the operator be speeded by the use of Pittsburg Brewing Company’s Special. ENGINEERING NEWS. The much renowned Harley balance will be on exhibition at the Smith Cabinet every afternoon from five until six o’clock. It is rumored that the new University is to be equipped with the Curry Direct-Current Transformers. 'They are to be installed by the mechanical engineering section of the Junior class. Lessons in theoretical and practical wood chopping are given each day in the mechanical laboratory. The principal object of the course is to teach the students to spend twice as much time telling about it as they do in preparing the fuel. 315 MUSICAL ENTERTAINMENTS Concerts and Private Parties Our Specialties West Penn Medical Quartette JOSKI'II C.

()nlv in such an environment is it possible to learn the use of the pedal extremities and enlarge ‘lie cranial capacity, to develop from a callow Freshman into a sophisticated Senior. Pittsburgia is an ideal location, 'file city is one vast laboratory, where everybody works but the paternal antecedent; the university is a tine miniature imitation. where everybody learns but the faculty. 'Pile student lives in an atmosphere which teaches that life comes hard and life is earnest, and he’d better wash his face. The Western University is thus advantageously situated on the upper crust of this mundane oblate spheroid. The observant student, as he wends his up-hill way to the scene of this home of the Graces, beholds on every hand the opportunities of culture which, taken at full price, will emaciate his purse. Behind plate glass shine the glories of Occidental civilization; the wail of the nickelodeon is heard in the streets, the peanut bags’ minute forms catch the eye from the Italian’s stand. Rosenbaum millinery tosses in the breeze, and the gasoline auto and the one-cent cigar waste their sweetness on the smoky air; culchah. culchah. culchah! culchah evewywheh! In this connection we would be unpardonably remiss if we should fail to mention with glowing adjectives and nouns, both common and proper, the noise indescribable to be heard at the Zoo at Highland Park. Here is foregathered the elite of the animal kingdom, from the subtle serpent to the king of beasts; and many a rara avis adds its song at the call of the roaring chief rooter. Yea, more, the Zoo always has a big feline for you. So rich is the Pittsburg Exposition in materials of a character to make the mouth water and in the practical application of the various branches of amusc- 321 ments. that colleges many miles distant miss their students, who come hither for a visit. It means much to the student to pursue his collegiate course in the midst of the activities of the Pittsburg Baseball Club. The Duquesnc Gardens, the roller-skating rink, the opportunities for photos at a dozen for ten cents, painless extraction free, and credit good at Pickering’s: too much emphasis and money cannot be placed upon this culture bv the college students. It adds greatly to the price of traveling around the college curricula that the student is pursued by his studies in an atmosphere which combines culchah and smoke as does Pittsburg, where one learns to do, and sees what has been done, and the stars shine through the smoke. THE STUDENT MUSEUM. mong many other valuable exhibits are the following: Two bottles of College Spirit(s) bottled in bond. One boot of the late George Kissinger. ()ne lovely coed pompadour. Hypothetical question by Clarence Boddic, asked of l)r. Alex. Hunter. Lunch box containing brick, kicked 500 ft. by Shrivcr, breaking world’s rcc ord and patent leather shoe.

Philandering.—Mechanics of Materials. Professor Hartman. Ph.D. The principal subjects treated are the resistance and elasticity of materials. The action of hearts under various conditions is carefully studied and the stu dent is encouraged to supplement the lectures and text-book by practical work. The value of different kinds of candy, size of box and price are considered. Ice cream and soda water are briefly touched upon. Text, Van Marconi's too Tests of the Female Heart. 2. Surveying.—Short Course. Professor Bates. M.Wrts. The student is taught to know a good thing on first sight. The work includes a study of library methods. Text, Kissinger’s I land Book of Library Observations. 3. Amatory Language and Literature.- Professor Bates. M.Wrts. The student is trained in conversation and introduced to reading of Amatory Literature immediately. The locals of the exchanges, especially the Geneva Cabinet, and such selections from the Courant as are of interest are used as primers. Advanced Texts. Lessing's Beatricia von der Hcnne Mans, and Goethe's Waldemar und Liliana. 4. Interviewing.—Prof. Hartman and Student-Assistant Shaw. In this course one hour of recitation is required and two hours of library work. The text-book of the professor in charge is used—Waiting on the Stairs, with reference to Willock’s Shy Remarks. 5. Eyeing and Ogling.—Professor Mitchell, G.G.Is. The formulas for differentiation of winks and glances are deduced both bv the method of rates and that of limits. Applications arc made to the valuation of indeterminate expressions and the shining of the eyes, the determination of unseeing tangent glances and the composition of dreamy looks. Students become more interested and get a better grasp of the subject by the introduction of visitors. Text, Chase Carhart’s Optical Calculus. (A part of the library will be fitted up with sofas and curtains, and students will be given the Opportunity to speak to a girl without having a dozen more around.) 323 D Iii the Days of Chivalry!

The elements of hot air arc explained and their production and mixture taught by experiment. Training in writing advertisements. mining stock a specialty, is given when desired. Description of athletics is the main exercise. The class learns how to tell vividly and lengthily what isn't as what is, yet without saying that what isn't is what it is or is what it isn’t. Text. Arthur’s I’p in a Walloon, Hoys, and Golden’s Three Years a Senior, or. The Adventures of a Hot Air Merchant. Grammar—Jim McCormick's Soft Solder. 11. Smilology.—Professor Arthur, A.I.R.

Text, Des Islet's Arts of the Gentleman. 16. Energetics and linthusiastics.—Professor Kornhauser, Z.I.P., O.K. This course is an introduction to college life and every other life worth living: it aims to teach the fundamental principles of booming things. Instruction is given in college yells, hand claps, loyal boasting, glad greetings, flattery of classmates, singing, cheering and encouragement of co-education. Text, Kornhauser’s Involution of a College Spirit. i . Jocularity.—Professor Kissinger, I.O.O.P. The elementary work in this course consists in gaining control of the physiognomy, and dislocation of the necktie. Each student must provide himself with a large glass stick pin, tousled hair and abnormal pedal equipment. The care of the stomach is discussed. Visits are made to Aspinwall to get some of that funny air. An amateur Glee Club is organized, and each man is trained as end-man. The work of the term is closed with the cultivation of a droll expression and forlorn attitude, and practice in entertaining an appreciative auburn-haired girl.

Deals with the use of the microscope in the discovery of a fifteen-cent lunch, or the crumbs of a home-made brand. (Professor Reece skillfully extracted a ten-ccnt lunch lemo-orangc from under a suffering Freshman's thumb-nail.) A remarkable method of taking in knowledge with the food is carefully shown. (The food is subjected to polarized light reflected from a history book and then rapidly eaten.) The more wonderful discovery of a relief for the mind by debate while munching (the grandest and most economic process known in gastronomies, second only to the discovery of the mouth as a storage 327 plant) is proved available. The sub-maxilarv speed and gastric capacity arc ascertained and the proper balance is struck with the How of arguments. Individual Oor? L u vc h ifS r v p6 JLLI —JSF 3 TE RS.

Grounds for the exhibition of gym suits and muscles are provided upon the campus with ball field, tennis courts and ash track, well ventilated and refrigerated by a wind attachment. Many bystanders and onlookers are kept always ready to join heartily in the jeering. Recognizing that no one system is perfect and each has its faults, the instructor uses no system at all. It is hoped that some Delsarte movements win be embodied in the class exercises, but so far the Awkward movements have prevailed. The classes on the horizontal bar. parallel bars, side and long horse and flying rings are taking a great interest in basket-ball. A contest is held each year in February, to see which class looks funniest. In April, the annual horror in the gymnasium causes a crush of Juliets in the gallery. In the spring, the students get spring fever. 329 330 THE OWL ALMANAC Most Valuable and Interesting Almanac Published Read Wrathfully by Millions INSTRUCTIONS AND CONTENTS The following Calendar, wc wish to state once and for all, is a strictly true record of bona fide events; but, as words are often inadequate, especially for description of mental and spiritual things (of which this book is full), wc suggest to all critics, higher and lower, that things may not seem what they be.
