Chairman b 7 THE UNIVERSITY OF DENVER BY THE CHANCELLOR The Charter of the Colorado Seminary was signed by Governor Evans on the 5th of March, 1864. In 1880 the Colorado Seminary developed into the University of Denver. So our University is distinguished as the pioneer of all educational institutions in Colorado. This is a permanent glory of our school. We have another distinction in that we have given more degrees than either of our sister institutions of the first rank. Colorado College began its work in 1874. The list of degrees given at Colorado Springs down to the commencement of 1901 aggregates 136. The State University began its work in 1877. The list of degrees given at Boulder down to the same date aggregates 448. The list of degrees given by the University of Denver down to the same date amounts to 568. Our relations with our sister institutions of the first rank are in every way most pleasant. Education is co-operative in our thought, and not competitive. We need more education and more religion in Colorado. We do not need more mineral lands, or more ranch lands, or more grazing lands, or more fruit lands. In material wealth ottr state is rich beyond the power of words to describe. But we do need a larger enthusiasm and a deeper unity of purpose among the men and women who stand for the noblest things in education and religion. The University of Denver is manifestly entering upon a career of larger usefulness. The growth of the student body within two years tells its own story. At the commencement of 1900 we reported 630 students in all the schools of the University. At the commencement of 1901 we reported 878 students. At the commencement of 1902 we shall report more than 1.100 students for the year. The exact figure will Ik announced at the graduating exercises on the 11th of June. More than four hundred of these students for this year have been under the instruction of the Faculty of the College of Liberal Arts. Two hundred of these students have been under the instruction of the Faculties of Medicine, Law and Dentistry. More than five hundred of these students have been under the instruction of the Faculty of Music and Fine Arts. The financial difficulties which have been a serious embarrassment to our work are now beginning to vanish. At our last commencement we had wiped out approximately twenty-five thousand dollars of our debt. So the total debt was reduced from one hundred and seventy-five thousand dollars to one hundred and fifty thousand dollars. Since the 13th of January we have secured conditional pledges which amount to ninety thousand dollars, that is three-fifths of the total debt. When we shall have secured sixty thousand dollars of additional conditional pledges our solicitude will be over forever. Every week brings us some new occasion of confident expectation that we arc nearing the end of these perplexities. University Hall. University Tark.

And so it came on a morning in the fall of 98, With happy hearts and faces beaming, A hand of youths and maidens came, designated by fate To make a stir in 1). I The llower of the land were they, this class of 1902, From east and west they had come together The hard and rugged path of learning to pursue; And all the professors took notice that they were a brainy set. And Sophs observing their vim and feather Hcthought them with dread and terror, of the fate that might be met, l� v them when the classes clashed. And well they might, for the Freshmen soon donned their colors gay, Dashed off the Sophs' feeble resistance: Then floated their Hag and showed that they were here to stay. In fun and frolic none equalled them, the envy of the school— 'or from any one asked they assistance. In their fun or their work, and they ever faithfully followed each rule ()f the Chancellor. Uni the first year only hinted at the conquests they should make. The second year proved well their mettle: They vanquished the vain lioasting Freshmen ; their flag from its standard did take: In oratory, too. they completely won the day: And the Seniors could never quite settle I low the Sophomores got their gowns, which they used in their own clever way, I hit they did. 21 When Juniors—ah, then 1k w their glory increased! And their doings so new Just set the whole college to talking: And prizes! Why. Dunkel the English and lieckwith the Herrick prize drew. Then, too, all recall how. in long robes of whites and a head-dress gailv unique. To chapel one tnom they catne walking. To announce their annual, and on the side, the Seniors a little to pique. And it worked. And that fine thing, the Junior Prom, was instituted by them: At which were take-offs quite realistic ()n the Seniors. l� tit the finest and hest display of their genius came when Their annual so neat, appeared. Kynewistiok. volume four. In every way so truly artistic That all admired—and marveled at what had ne’er hap| ened Indore. They came out of it clear! Another year, and they were Seniors, in caps and gowns dulv dressed. In all ways maintained they the honor Of tluir standing the years More; moreover they won the state contest. Fond of their Alma Mater they kept well her interests in view: And wherever each student mas wander In following the leadings of life, to the class of 1902, He’ll ever Ik loyal. A.

He was of Norwegian descent, and the spirit that led on his iking ancestors to brave storms and dangers, likewise led him through difficulties and over obstacles that would have appalled one of less strength of character. He worked hard for the realization of ho|ies which Nature did not allow him to sec fulfilled Though his life was cut short Ik fore he had been able to accomplish much, the world is tile Ix'ttcr for his having lived in it.

My Dear Elsie: Have just finished reading your letter lor the—I can't tell how many-cth time—anti cnjoyc«l it so much. Since coming to (jermany my correspondents have forgotten that I. as well as you. am out of touch with the old life, and consequently hungering for the hits of gossip so clear to a girl s heart. But that heart, mine at least, has recently been refreshed by a letter from Mrs. Dillen-hack—vou remember she used to be” Max Crawford, and such a quiet girl, but has develop'd into a wonderful woman, and. with her husliand. is enjoying an unlimited sta in Paris. Mr. Dillcnhack made his money bv his novel. “I zzic. the Minister.” which is really a biography of Rudy Vzzell. the world-famed evangelist. and taking for his motto. An inefficient he i worse than the truth, decided that America was not the place for rising aristocrats and sailed on the next day for Eurojn . Martha Markisen. who writes me. met such an untimely death. She and Mr. Bliss, it seems, had joined forces and become the most successful slicks and train robbers of modem times. They were trapjied and on discovering themselves ln-trayed. lcajxM from the train, and Martha was instantly killed. Bliss has turned hermit. Too had. two people who began so brightly to follow the good way should have fallen so far from grace! My husband and I went to see Faust” last evening, and, dear Elsie, we were so delighted by our old schoolmate. Edward Stauffer's marvelous interpretation of the character Mephistopheles—lie is a fine actor and looked as villainous as of yore. Mrs. I)— wrote. t x , that she hail lately | aid a visit to our old friend, Alice Richardson Evans, who. she says, makes a lieautiful and model minister’s wife: her husliand is such a gifted man. Mrs. Crook, who is Professor of English at the Berlin University, met him and says he is a model man. Truly a model family in a model parish! 1 supjiose you have heard about Vernon Brigham. but woman-like, 1 must toll you anyway. He was conqiounding an insoluble chemical, embalming stuff, the secret of which lias made him renowned, and by accident dropjicd the retort tin his foot, hurting it so seriously that he had to have removed the three toes which it didn’t embalm. Such a calamity would have lieen tragic if it had hap|ici!cd to our dancing master. Mr. Thomas, who is becoming an eminent litcrarx critic as fast as his eyesight, which he lost for a while, will allow. Rather gritty of hint, wasn’t it. to employ his feet when his head gave out—he always was a worker. And. oh! 1 mustn’t forget to tell what she heard aliout Stanley Hornheck. He raised the biggest crop of onions in Missouri Inst summer! Who would have dreamed of him as a typical farmer: and volt won't believe it. but they say his wife has frizzly, red hair. You asked me aliout Lulu (ilockner. I lielicve •die is at the head of a training school for professional basket-ball plavers. She lias brought the game doxvn to a scientific basis You will die laughing when 2d I tell you that Maude W alker refused $5,000 a night and was only to sing three numbers. Her voice is truly marvelous. I heard her in the spring of 1902 in “Dorothy.” and it was wonderful. She never did care a cent for money, you know, so she refuses bushels of offers. And Litcile, she says, lias done the very worst tiling—you remember Lucile Timhcrlake, of course. W ell, anyway, after these many years of single blessedness, she has taken unto herself a husband who is twenty years younger than she is. but love, they say. is blind. Isn't it funny? She used to be so much sought after in the days of old, and we thought she would be the first to be led to the altar. Such a topsy-turvy world as this is at best! So hard to tell how people will turn out. for my eye caught the strangest item in an American newspaper the other day. It said. “Gooldv. Car-son and Hunter, assisted by Mrs. Hunter 1 nee Holderer) are traveling through the country on a political tour. It is positively the greatest trust combination that the United States has ever had to deal with, for Mrs. Hunter trusts Mr. Hunter, who is running for President, and Hunter trusts Carson, who is running for Vice-President, and they all trust Gooldv. who is the power behind the throne, the brain, the brawn, the Mark Hanna of the whole confidential scheme.” I notice, however, that the “confidential scheme” of this “trust business” is very dear to the American heart and shows signs of being the most popular of campaigns. And Klsie. who do you think she saw one Saturday when she was in New York? Marguerite Dyer, whom she describes as a happy little old lady with white hair and spectacles. And can you imagine what sin is doing?—has a house full of children—street gamins whom she is instructing in the good and righteous way. along with several cats and her house maids. Wilber Alter has developed into the business man, with a great coat and pince-nez, who docs things. ()f course, he has money to feed to the black birds, but does not. because it is bad for the digestive apparatus. He has all that heart could wish, even to a dog. which he carries around everywhere with him. Dogs are good friends. I saw Mabel Drown last year while she was taking the waters at Da den. 1 should think that thirty years spent in teaching the piano with rests of only two or three months at a time would make anyone a lit subject for Daden. Dut she seems to enjoy her work very much. I must close this long letter now. as it is midnight and my eyes are misty with the dews of fond remembrance. I like my Kathcrland’s ways, altho I love America. My husband and I live cjuict. happy lives, devoted to work and play, and 1 often think of old I). I , days. Dear. Klsie. you needn't explain to me; I know you and Mr.---------are happy, and trust this will find you well. Pin sure you must like the new position on the college faculty. Goodnight, and write soon, for I always long for news from the other side of the Atlantic. Lovingly yours, II NTT IK MKYKK Sell WAIIACIIINSKI lIl’RO. 29 RAISING THE ELAG i Listen, my comrades, and I’ll recite I low the flag was raised one autumn night. ’Twas the fifth of October, in ninety-nine. When the night was moonless ami fierce the wind. And slowly we groped by the dim starlight. Said one of the boys, on the campus green. Ah. the painters' ladders by the Miff there. The finest sight that ever was seen— W e ll use them well, if all goes fair. And five strong youths will soon climb high. 'l'o the college root up near the sky. Where the profs, all say vc should not go. Cause we might fall, and ’twould hurt us so That whatever hapjK ned we'd never know.” Then they put to work while the painters lay In a hazy dream of the coming day When they would return to the school on the hill. Finding their ladders unmolested still. To finish the work so well begun. Little they thought that ere the sun Should rise in the east by the dairy of Munn. The ladders would be gone from the Miff wall Across the way to the sinners’ hall. Meanwhile the stars shone dimly on And the fleecy clouds chased «|tiickl by. Darkening the starlight of the autumn ky. And the wind blew fierce from the western heights. Rustling the leaves on the campus lawn. Whistling around the flagstaff high. And chilling the five |w or Freshmen wights. 1 hen they ctim!)ed to the roof of the building gray. My the linked ladders, in stocking-feet. To the gutter where the two r«M.fs meet: And up the gutter they made their way lo the steep roof on the northern side; And by this they dimlted to the cujMila wide. 30 Holding to the tin. an ornament there. Xor paused to stop and look down where I'lic root and the wall could Ik- seen to meet Above the ground full fifty feet— For they were the chaps who do and who dare. I’eneath. in the Park, the sleeping lay. In their beds, on Learning s hill. Wrapped in sluml er so deep and still. 'The five could hear the watchdog’s bay I pat Pritchard’s, on “Professors’ Row.” Warning the winds not to murmur so And seeming to say. “All is not right.” A moment only they looked at the light Diffused from a thousand glassy arcs And dancing, shining, electric sparks. They counseled together in voices low. For fear someone might chance to hear. And spoil the work to the Freshies dear A work that fore’er shall remembered be I iy the class of nineteen hundred-three. Meanwhile impatient the work shall be done. 1 latless and shoeless the five worked on In the cupola up beneath the sky. The hours of darkness were almost gone. The night was quickly passing by. Then three climbed to the tower roof, Receiving, meanwhile, the wind’s rebuff. To Winship the honor is gladly given Of climbing the stall that points to heaven. As it rises above the roof of the hall. Slender and straight, and smooth and tall. As upward he climbs the flagstaff's height The hammer resounds through the quiet night. I Ic nails the cleats and mounts one by one, Just one moment more, the work’s all done. The library clock had counted three When the Freshman band was through. And the pink and gray was floating free In the night air damp with dew. Through all the history of our class. Pome by tradition from the past. In hours of triumph and times of defeat. We’ll remember well that autumn morn When the sun rose up and was first to greet The flag of Xauglit Three, new horn. 31 32 ..Cbe..

Of the former class we have not as yet quite recovered from that fear; of the latter, aided by our kind friends, the Juniors, we have not only lost all dread, but “have learned to live only to conquer. Although we are not in the habit of boasting, it may Ik well to mention a few of our numerous achievements. The cane-rush, the first one which has occurred in years, showed us to he the superiors of our greatest foe. the Sophs. Our next victory came when our Hag was placed at the top of the immense stand-pipe at the southeast corner of the campus, and although left unguarded and besieged by fire and shot in the hands of our rivals, still Boats where all who look may see. Again, our victory in foot-ball over the Preps was hut another star in a firmament which has never been dimmed by a defeat. Sufficient has been said of our victories, and as for the Sophomores, Let the dead rest in peace.” ()ur path has been a pleasant one to travel, though difficult at times, made pleasant by the ever-present kindness of the faculty and student body in general: made difficult by our inexperience and lack of studious ability. And to the class which is about to follow us we can sa that if they follow the straight and narrow way laid down by us. their illustrious predecessors, they will never come to grief, anti their college life will he one of profit, and incidentally, pleasure and strife. And we sincerely hope that they will he found “As much alive As were the Preshmcn Of 1905. 47 A STORY OF THE STANDPIPE Tis the first night of the carnival. Midnight fast is drawing near: All the grandstand, silent, empty. Looks forlornly l� are and drear. ()nly for the sound of tramways. Is the city deathly still; On his throne is Morpheus seated. Rilling all the world at will. Where First avenue joins with Lincoln, Is a group of sturdy boys; Talking scarce above a whisper. Making very little noise. “Dig up, fellows,” quoth a Freshman He whose name In-gins with Cy; “Two more quarters, then a wagon. And a horse, too, we can buy.” Soon they plan their mode of action. As they |� ass the Broadway “owls Soon are i cacctul dreamers wakened Bv the Freshmen veils and howls. m m Finally they near the campus. Where the stand-pqic looms in sight; Where the huge and swarthy monster Looks down from his dizzy height. Then are ladders Ik wind together,— Then are colors quickly tossed,— Soon they float upon the standpi| e And the “Rubicon is crossed.” Far above the flag is flying— Fairest purple, purest white— Made hv Freshmen maidens’ fingers. For tiie Freshmen lads delight. Gladly then they cheer their colors. Cheer their symlxd Fright and fair. Smiles the iihsui iqxiii their ar lor. Whispers “Where are Sophies— where?” 4S Morning Hawns; the Sophs are waiting. films so warlike, ladders tall: Freshmen colors must be conquered! But the dag laughs at them all. Climb they madly, shoot they wildly, Only cease when Freshman’s near; Ammunition all is wasted. They must sadly seek the rear. “Let us chase the weary Sophies,” rims the Freshmen word is said; Sophs are conquered: some discovered Underneath Prof. Phillips bed. Then the Freshmen leave the colors To the tuerev of the Sophs. Knowing that if they molest them They must first consult the profs. Sophies plan to burn the colors— ( Plan it in their heads of cheese) — ( nlv singe the white and purple, As it ripples in the breeze. Sophies call a solemn meeting. 'Falk their griefs and sorrows o’er ; N ote to nevermore be warlike— ( Heads and hearts are far too sore). Still the Freshmen Hag is waving In the fresh, sweet, balmy air: Sun and stars shed benedictions ()n its colors bright and fair. Long max Freshmen Hag be highest! Long may Freshmen spirit thrive! Long in glory, long in memory Be the class of Nineteen Five! 49 R. W. P. ) ol 4.1 . 50 COLLEGE OF MEDICINE If the usefulness of a medical college is to he gauged by the class of men it sends out as graduates, and by the instruction it gives that enables them afterward to meet the difficulties of life more than half way, then the Medical Department of the I’niversitv of Denver has plenty of reason not to hesitate to own its past record. Of course there are certain disadvantages under which it must labor; that is inevitable. All medical colleges in the south or west arc hampered, more or less, by the smallness of the cities in which they arc located. Their hospital and clinical facilities are thereby reduced, their attendance suffers and the resulting shortage of finances prevents conqyetition with the larger schools of the east in the matter of well-equipt ed laboratories. But there is one way in which they have a decided advantage, and the importance of that one |X)int can not he over- estimated. The very smallness of the classes in a small college makes personal instruction by the lectures possible and real. Where in a class of two hundred a student is quizzed once or twice a month, or never, in a class of ten or fifteen he is given an opportunity to air Ins ignorance every day. It is obvious that whatever clinical work presents itself can not he inspected closely by a class of two hundred, but can readily be examined by a class of ten. Moreover, Denver. In virtue of its climatic advantages, has more strong medical men than, perhaps, any other city of its size in America. We are told by men competent to know whereof they speak, that the SI facilities of our school arc exceptional as compared with all other colleges, in regard to the amount of actual practice each student gets Ix-forc graduation. As a matter of fact, probably more than three times as much dispensary and clinical work is done at the D. C. and by 13. C. students as is done by other Colorado schools combined. This is partly due to the central location of the building. A report of the dispensary work done during the year ujnt may not Ik amiss here. These cases are treated by the Juniors and Seniors under the supervision of the various physicians in charge of the different departments. During the year 1901. 12402 visits to the dispensary were made by patients, an increase of 5.334 over the record for 1900. These included every class of cases. The figures do not. however, include the number of visits made by students to mitside fiatients under the physicians' orders: but a they stand they mean an average of 1.03 | r month, or 40 per day. exclusive of Sundays, when the dis-pensarv is not open. Any report tltat any other Colorado medical college is in the same class with D. t . as regards clinical facilities is a fairy tale. The end is not yet. In order to increase the present hospital facilities, a building has recently been secured for that puqiose. ami as a hospital has been in operation since the fifteenth of April. More than that—Denver is at some time to lx a great city, and 1). I , will surely have the lead. L tkk. Just at the time of going to press it i � practically an assured fact that the D. I . and the Cross will Ik consolidated, on terms pre-eminently sati -factorv to the I). C. This is a step that has been under consideration for a year or more; it is. therefore, no sudden move, and should prove a wise plan. The Cross building will lx abandoned, and all lectures will lx delivered in the present I). I’, building. While known to the public as the Denver and Cross College of .Medicine, the school will exist under the charter of the Cniversity of Denver. and diplomas will be issued under the latter title only. The laboratory equipments of the iross will lx moved over by September. For the present. lK)th faculties will be retained: the present (iross faculty will have the secretaryship of the new faculty, also that of the ! oanl of trustees. The D. I , will retain the offices of president and treasurer of the ln ard of trustees, also dean, vicedean, and treasurer of the faculty, with five of tlu nine trustees, and twenty-one of the forty votes of the faculty. Minor details will be arranged later. In fact, 't is a consummation devoutly to be wished for. and the promises that the I). I . ( ollegeof Medicine holds forth ought all tile sooner t«� be fulfilled. 52 Guiding Principles: JUNIORS. Present—“This is the winter of our discontent. Future—“Do what and whom you can.

The school is equipped with one of the liest libraries in the West, containing’ a carefully selected numlier of textbooks and an extensive collection of judicial reports. The lack of space prevents us from giving a history of the school, showing its rapid progress to a high |xisitinn among the law schools of this country, so we will have to he confined to a few facts as to the present. The faculty and corps of instructors are composed of members of the Colorado har. who. on account of their ability and preparation, are well able to carry on the work of the school. To their untiring efforts is due the high standard to which this school has attained, and now. with its three-year course and wide scope of instruction. it ranks high among the colleges of its kind. As a testimonial to the thoroughness of the work done here we refer to the results as shown by the State Hoard of Law Examiners of Colorado; of the seven examinations given by them, graduates of the Denver Law School have five times taken first place, once second, while at one examination there were no graduates of this school present. Xo one can fully appreciate the amount of work done at this school unless he has himself been a law student. With the present course of study and the present ability of the human mind little time is left for idleness, and scarcely without an exception, the law students are here for business. It is useless to argue as to whether a law school or an office gives the better prejwration for a legal career. The profession of Law is undergoing a stead) evolution, and in a few years the lawyer with the college education ami law school training will he the master of the situation. It would Ik a mistake to close this brief statement without acknowledging the effort and ability which the Secretary of the Faculty, Lucius V. Hoyt, has shown in building up the school, ever seeking for improvement in methods and results he has brought this school to the front ranks among our American colleges of law.

The Denver Law School is an interesting place. So we have interesting people. Now. there is P ofessor Costigan. Although his real title is Professor, the Freshmen persist in calling him Baron, doubtless, from his truly baronial manner of deciding cases and marking examination pn|x rs. The professor is wont to give haughty opinions as to the ratio decidendi, etc., of cases. And not infrequently he will close somewhat in this way: Finally, in looking over the decision of the judge here, I see that Baron Parke quite agrees with me. But the professor is endowed with other graces liesides having a mind of his own. He can say wittier things, and not mean to say them, than any one else in the Law School. It is a standing joke on the professor that he was very much put out trying to recall what the la t piece was that the orchestra played with such effect at the Broadway the other evening. But then, who ever heard of the Star Spangled Banner” being even mentioned in the fine print to the - nd Bk. of Black-stone! The professor has. also, in all seriousness, kindly advised the aspiring Freshmen that they need not worry so atom getting through in such a hurry, that a year or so will not make very much difference to them when they begin practice: and that, although they may not he so fortunate as Peter Sterling in having the map of Italy to decipher on the cracked wall or a pair of slate-colored eyes to dream about, yet they may still find equal amusement in reviewing Real Property. Hen i. Woodward, or Bennie.” as he is familiarly and lovingly called hv not a few of the students, is undoubtedly the Beau l� rumniel of the faculty. And by that we mean that he is handsome and single, not sweet and twenty.” to he sure, but strong and thirty, let us say. Yet. some of the fellows have a violent presumption that Bennie thinks of something much totter than the cold, gray stone building across the street, at which he gazes in such a far-away manner when Stanley tries to explain and unfold the law from a student's standpoint. Bennie has two fktcuHan'tics. He rolls his r's, and. being a Southerner, his tobacco, also. bO Then there is Bradfield. the Infant ' as he has been dublied bv his classmates. This young shoot, be it known, has a dimple on his left check, and blushes beautifully. He is noted for his restless disposition, his brilliant and sparkling repartee, and that vast reservoir of energy which is his. He is now contemplating a publication entitled, “Wild Animals of which Seton-Thompson Knows Nothing. But let us j ass on to a lighter and more airy subject. Ah! There is Rose. Robert Bracton Meta Rose, in sliort. Here i an anomaly, for here we have a Rose which is not full-grown, yet fuH-blooiii. Rose says he is from Missouri. But there are those who will assert that this C olorado Beauty, who was not horn to blush unseen, hails from the Harden of the Hods. and. presumably, from the Cave of the Winds. Nor floes it cost $2.cx to sec or hear him either. “As free as the air you breathe ’ But he sure and put a premium on the air about you, or it may l� e used for other exhaustive purposes. I-ast, but not least, and yet least from a physical standpoint, is Simons, who comes from Texas, the land of the Trusts. So Simons is specializing in Torts. It is unascertained as to whether this young man has given up father and mother for spiritual purjMses. hut certain it is that he gave up smoking because his girl told him to. And yet. jjeople will complain of the dearth of heroes in this selfish age. Simons’ favorite amusement is pitch. Favorite song. “Hesitate. Mr. Nigger. Hesitate. There are many other quite interesting people in the Law School Imt the writer has been unable to obtain their ]K ni issions as fortunately as he was in the foregoing cases, to “write them up. True some have offered their autobiographies. but we have been reluctantly compelled to return them, owing to laek of space for such lengthy articles as most of them pro vet I to Ik . RONDEAU FOR A LAWYER I love to lie the whole day thro’. Where skies outspread their tents of blue. And canopy the waving trees That whisper to the whisp’ring breeze Tales centuries old blit ever new. Where plaintive doves begin to sue For that warm love which is their due. And drown with moans the mock-bird's glees, I love to lie. In fact, while the aforesaid’s true. To lie is what I always do Whenever and where'er 1 please: Not only at such times as these. But any time—I own to you. I love to lie. 61 Raul L. Dunbar. JOHN DOE. LAW, '02 Strange arc the ideas students of the other dc|kartmcuts have of the Laws.” a they are called. “A fossilized specimen of antiquity, having lost all interest in college life, athletics and everything so dear to the heart of the student, existing in a hypothetical world of legal terms, and surrounded by a vast amount of dignity ami arrogance. Not so. gentle reader, yet. if they so appear, it arises from the sub-conscious. Here is a brief story of one of tin ■’Laws; ' read it ami judge for yourself. Living in a little town, far removed from the whirl of city life, was a toy of ordinary ability, who went atom his daily task of lessons, chores and errands, as thousands of other toys do every day. Time jiassed on ami. as a matter of course, he entered high school, thus, imjicrceptibly, a new life began to open before him. He was elected president of the class, the militar company offered new fields of honor to him. the literary society and the scicial club both added to his growing stock of attainments. Here, too. lie learned the first principles of foot-ball and base-ball, which were to help him so much is his college life. So passed away four happy years, and the graduation evening came with all its rewards for long months so wisely $|x-nt in study ami discipline. John had graduated, and now the first course of the foundation of an education was completed. The summer vacation passed. leaving nothing but the memory of tennis parties. picnics. lx ating on tile lake and moonlight drives to mark its jiassing. One evening, as John rode up the walk on his wheel, lie met his father standing near the great pine tree in the front yard. '‘John.’ said his father, have you made your arrangements atout going away to college next week? “Why, father. I had nearly forgot atout it. said John. “How I wish 1 could go with James and Cl� arle to the mountains for a month first, hut suppose I had just as well togin with the rest next week to go up there.” “It is just as you wish. John: I am willing that you shall have a college education if you desire it. if not. vou can g into business right away. Well, father. I guess ! will try college for a while anyway.” The rest of the week was given up to preparations for going away, farewell parties, saying good-live to old friends and acquaintances. Monday afternoon John kissed his mother good-bye and he and bis father drove clown to the station. Quite a numlter of his schoolmates were there to see him off. and as the train started away they all gave the old 05 yell. 62 John is now at the University. a Freshman in all his glory; he has gone safely through the “hazing.” fraternity rushing and subsequent initiation, and how proudly he walks across the campus, while the diamond shining on his frat” pin shows that he has made the best “set.” Foot-ball season is now on and he has made the team. How he wishes to make a great run and win a name for himself; but no, the coach says. “Team Work:” the captain says, “Team Work;” and the older men more unkindly still, yell at him, “Freshman, no grandstands, play the game! He gets his sweater ami then settles down to study for the rest of the winter. The base-hall season opens and John is out with the squad. 11 is ambition is to pitch for the ’Varsity team, but Andrews. ’ . who has pitched three years, is still in school, and John sees little chance for himself that vear. Two davs 00 before the first game the captain came to John ami said. “Doe. you arc to pitch Saturday.” His joy knew no bounds; yet how kind is providence to bide the future from us. The game began, poor John, he was taken out of the Ik . in the third inning, with the game almost hopelessly lost, and only twice again that season did he go in. and then only to finish out an easy game. The Sophomore year came and went much as the Freshman had. save only that John was manager of the («lee Club, and in base-ball he played a good game at center field. Like many other liovs he l egan to | ay more attention to the girls than formerly, though seeming not to prefer one to another, yet. in his heart there was one. Alice Owens, for whose company be dared hardly aspire, though often did he think of her. The Junior year at last! Now see him alight from the train, suit case in hand. Immediately he is surrounded b a crowd of friends, all eager to grasp his hand, saying. “()Id man. glad to see you hack. Why did you not come down yesterday, we had a ‘hot time last night.” This was the great year for John’s athletic record, never before had the University had such a foot-hall team, and to cap the climax. John was elected captain for the next year. The base-hall team won the pennant fur the first time since 94. and John pitched every game. Nor had all this honor which had come to him crowded out the strong feeling for the girl whom he had admired—though mostly a-far off—during his Sophomore year. Now things had changed. John was a recognized | lower in college, and, as he himself said, he did not have to take a hack seat for anybody. Alice Owens, the girl toward whom John directed his attention, was a leader in college society, in fact, the most | opular girl in school, so his road was a most difficult one to travel. It looked to him that there were at least four other fellows who had the inside track on him. Yet he was one of those fellows that where he set his heart he pm his hand, and in spite of tricks and plots to throw him off. he kept steadily on. lieing occasionally rewarded by a kind word from her or by her conqianv to some event. Thus passed the Junior year, and John was a college man in the full sense of the word, with all that polish and culture gained nowhere hut within college walls. During the summer he corresponded with Miss ( hvens. and it was at this time he came to know that he really loved Iter. 63 In the fall lu returned to the university as usual, but tins time as a grave Senior, and unlike many of his classmates, his head retained its normal size. Once again did the foot-ball team triumph and once again did his strong right arm and trained eye compel the base-ball pennant to hang in the halls of the old university for another year. Hut athletics were no more uppermost in his mind, his standing as a student concerned him more than formerly; hut above all this, one thing he desired, and that was the hive of Alice Owens. He often reasoned with himself: Site does not care for me. she seems to care for no one. she only wants to have a good time. If I did win her, would she prove herself a helpful companion forme? Reasoning fails here! You know that she is a true woman, and where she once sets her heart, there it will remain. The year | assed on and one bright da near the close of school, Alice and John went on a picnic with their class. What hapficncd on that trip I do not know, hut o'er since that day there has ! een a change in two lives. W hat has hap| cned to Mice since the June of 99 1 cannot say, for since her graduation I have not seen her only as she conies hack for a short visit. Hut John entered law school, and as the “four year” rule had barred him from athletics, ami the amount of work had compelled him to give up his social life to a large extent, he passed from the gay life of an undergraduate to the task of preparing himself for his life's work. Life was more real now, the time had come when he must choose whether he would take his place among the leaders or only move with the heedless thousands along in the common ruts of life. He did not think of Alice as how beautiful she would look at the hall, or how attractive at the parties, hut how happy she would l e in their handsome home on the “Avenue. how proud she would Ik of him as he rose in his clioscn profession. And so he has sjx nt the three years of his law' course in hard study and close application, and now. in the coming June, he will lie graduated with honor, and besides, he has a preparation for his chosen profession which few of his classmates. with lesser incentives to work, have obtained in their course. I'ndergraduates, do von still wonder that John ! e's interests no longer center in college life? Do you still think him a fossil after the four years he has sjjetit in college doing all he could for tlu 'Varsity? Do you still think he is missing the liest part of life?

The new school is recognized as one of the strongest in the entire W est. The standard of its requirements is high and its course of instruction full and thorough. The faculty contains the names of men who are recognized to Ik at the top of their profession. It is a place for enthusiastic work, and the large infirmary gives to the students great opportunities for practice during their dental course. A very large numl er of people avail themselves of the opportunity for tree treatment at the infirmary, and it is usually quite well filled with patients. The technical apparatus has been much increased by the consolidation, and the lal oratories are well equipped. That all these things are true is shown by the popularity of the school. The Dents not only make themselves felt in the class-room and lal oratory, but in athletics as well. This year’s l ase-bal) team, which made a good record for the I’ni versify, secured more than half its members from the Dental College. The Dents were likewise well represented on the toot-hall team this year. Other things sometimes engage their attention, and a file of the Denver dailies will show some interesting and amusing things that have happened with Denver Dents as the actors. The old rivalry which once existed between the two Denver dental colleges passed out of existence with their con sol i la t ion. but memories of what hap|K ncd before that event will continue in the minds of many. The big plaster of paris tooth, for which the two scltools fought so many times, now rests in quietness as a reminder of old days. Though the possibilities of rivalry has gone, the spirit which was behind it still exists and makes the Dents very live people. 67 CLASS OF 1903 COLORADO COLLEGE OF DENTAL URGERV UNIVERSITY OF DENVER 48 A FRESHMAN'S VIEW The Colorado College of Denial Surgery, like all other colleges, is com-posed mostly of Freshmen, at least, in importance. True, there are the Juniors and Seniors, but it is hardly worth while to mention them, although we may condescend to devote a few lines to their consideration. As Freshmen, we realize the vast importance of our position and feel keenly the many responsibilities which bear upon us. Hut we do not waver under the strain, for we are quite capable of taking care of ourselves. Perhaps one of our most irksome tasks is looking after our '‘upper-classmen’'—they are so haughty and swell-headed (to put it plainly). When college opened last ()ctober. they foolishly refused to acknowledge their inferiority, and it was with much hesitancy that we were finally compelled to perform the painful ceremony of chastising them, in order to demonstrate more impressively our rightful dominion in virtue of our exalted position. And from that time on the remainder of the term was one long and continuous calm: its serenity undisturbed save by an occasional murmur from some ill-contented subject or an insignificant uprising easily and quickly subdued by our superior forces. But we have a great sympathy for our fellow-students, even though they be a notch below us, and it is with great anxiety that we observe them toil slowly but surely up the long and laborious path of knowledge to the golden goal beyond. We know it is not easy, for have ter not had a long and tiresome experience? Have ter not enjoyed the limited pleasures and withstood the continual trials of one whole year of college life? Have ter not plugged and dug and worried and grieved, in anxiety lest the result he fruitless? Yea, all this and even more. Hut ’twas good seed, sown in good ground, and to reap an abundant harvest was inevitable. However, our exultation is not simply a result of our complete and glorious victory over the insignificant individuals whom we have mentioned, but more especially of our success in accumulating a goodly portion of that boundless field of knowledge which it is necessary (alas!) for us to possess in order to be qualified to “distract” teeth. It is difficult indeed for us to see whv we are required to he so intimately acquainted with the anatomy of the heel, the physiology of a finger-nail, or the diagnosis of arsenical poisoning in order to perform a few minor operations about the mouth, but such arc the requirements of dental colleges. and the same we must tolerate. Hut we do not mean to complain, for that is not in accordance with the constitution and by-laws of the virtuous Freshman class. With all our hard knocks and humps we arc still on deck (possibly some of us will l e on the same “deck” next year) and. as this goes to press, we are still burning midnight oil in preparation for a few exams., which are anticipated in the near and dear future. 69 W.

In fact, there is an air of aggressiveness alxnit the department, which is well characterized by the western expression, “hustling.” The faculty has been selected with consummate care and gathered, we were al out to say. from the four corners of the world. Such foreign schools as the Royal Academy of Music, at London. England; the Royal Conservatory of Music, at Munich; the Royal Conservatory of Music, at Vienna, and such notable schools in this country as the College of Music, at Cincinnati; the )bcrlin Conservatory: the Conservatory of Music, Philadelphia: the Conservatory of Music, at Ohio Wesleyan University, etc., have representatives in the faculty, and give the College of Music of the University a real and genuine cosmofiolitan character. 73 The courses of study in the several branches leading to graduation, are as comprehensive as can Ik found in any school of music in the land. The wisdom of offering such superior opportunities in the West is fully endorsed by the outcome, as the present enrollment has been a little less than six hundred students during the current school year. This is a growth of more than four hundred per cent in the last three years, which may fairly he denominated as phenomenal, in the history of school experience. The semi-monthlv recitals by the students, in the chapel of the school, provide a practical op|x rt unity for students to acquire that difficult attainment of playing with freedom and skill in public. Besides the opportunity alx ve referred to, it affords a wide acquaintance with works of many com] osers which no one student can find time to study, and thus enlarges the scojk of one’s knowledge of musical works in an almost geometrical ratio. Then the faculty give monthly lectures, ii|x n subjects selected by the students. During the current year, the faculty has given lectures upon “Study in foreign schools, ' The history and development of music, with illustrations from ancient coni|x sitions, “The rise and development of the opera, with illustrations from II Trovatore.” “How to train the musical ear.” and “Philosophy of music. In addition to these recitals and lectures at the school, the faculty and w advanced students have given several concerts in Denver and in outside towns, and have a series booked to l)e given this spring in five of the largest churches in the city and in as many different denominations. From these words it will be seen that the activities of the College of Music arc planned on a large scale, and it may he added that they are carried out in an artistic manner. It is gratifying to know that our faculty and advanced students are in great local demand as conductors and singers in the city choirs, not less than six churches being supplied with musicians from our College this present year. When it is remembered that at the time when the present management was engaged—only three years ago last fall—none of these facts above recited were in existence, wc certainly have reason to he gratified with the present status of our College of Music. The positions opened to graduates of the college is also a source of great satisfaction. The class last year numbered seven, and all were engaged for professional work lx?fore commencement. Two of the class, namely. Miss Musscr and Mrs. Lota, were engaged at the College to remain as instructors there. Miss P� etz was appointed as director of music at the Salisbury Academy. Missouri; Miss Morrow as superintendent of music in Talledaga, lahama: Miss Todd, teacher of music in the public schools of Denver; Miss Frbshauser. in Denver: Miss Brooks, at Windsor.

CLAIR SECOND 8ASS, RCAOCR 75 THE AEOLIAN QUARTETTE The Aeolian Quartette made its first appearance in public a little over a year ago. Since that time they have not lacked opportunities to sing, either in public or behind closed doors. The initial trip was made last June, and while we did not bring home enough money to wipe out the U.’s debt, we did bring back many pleasant recollections and some valuable experience. At I uena Vista we found a man who insisted that six men couldn’t raise a piano six feet from the door onto the stage (it was an unusually small upright). He had been imbibing sonic of those beautiful spirits.” and was very happy. St. Clair informed him that when he was in Denver, his principal pastime was carrying grand pianos around on his back. ( )h. yes.” said our beautiful spirit. ‘l know you; you’re Mr. Paderewski.” At Leadville, Glen wood Springs. Aspen and Grand Junction we were warmly received, especially at the latter place, where the temperature was 104 in the shade. Ye had come to think we were about the best yet, and with this impression proceeded to Ouray. Here we came clown from our high horse and took a look. We noticed the natives eyeing ns with unusual interest, but naturally supposed it was due to our prepossessing appearance. W hen at supper we each received a “cherry cobbler” that had enough stones in it to pave our way to a warmer clime, we began to feel a bit nervous. A little of this went a long way with Williamson, who immediately proceeded to lose his appetite, to say nothing of various other things. After partaking of this invigorating repast, we went out for a little fresh air; a short distance down the street we found one of our window cards conspicuously placed on the free lunch counter of the “Miners Exchange” soda fountain. This was the only card in sight. The manager seemed not at all surprised to see us. and took particular pains, so that his eyes looked glassy, to tell ns that we were all right. We felt better and went in. One look through the peek hole in the curtain and we all fell in a swoon. l or it was the biggest house yet. capacity of 600: there were twenty-one in the audience, including one Associated Press representative, who were all looking for the door. The remainder of the trip through Durango, Silvertoti. Monte Vista and 76 Sali'ia was uneventful, anti we soon reached liotne to tell it over and over to our admiring friends. In the fall the spirit again moved u to make more conquests, anti we accordingly started for Nebraska and Northern Colorado. Fort Collins afforded the most excitement, for here we found that far-famed institution known as the Agricultural ( ullegc.

POST GRADUATE DEPARTMENT To the reader of figures the number of those who sjiciul the budding period of their life in the pursuit of higher education is startling. These pass years before they liegin to pluck the desirable fruits of life. So unnatural does this appear to some, that a | ost graduate school would seem an institution for making more serious a sufficiently had situation. This, then, is an apology for those who —scorn delights And live laborious days,” by staying in the | ost graduate school. Why—d x s any one think—do they do this? Cndoubtedly. the most of them do it to satisfy their feeling that, as possessors of one degree, they are hut on the threshhold. and in order to give their times a quid pro quo. they must acquire more knowledge. They arc honest men, of scientific honesty—would satisfy Tyndall or Carlyle with their downright honesty, their hatred of sham. Fifty years have made a great change in the world. Nowadays you go into the milliner’s establishment and you are served by a maiden who, you learn in some way. is a bachelor of arts: or you travel the country roads and in the morning learn that your hostess, who is now out feeding the chickens, perhaps, lias on her | arlor wall a hit of pajx r which guarantees her “all the rights and privileges” of what was once an order ven powerful in the commonwealth. All this is very astonishing, and you liegin to realize that the proud B.A. may, after all. lx- what his title suggests to some, a “cow-l oy.” a mere novice in arts.

Thereto attached was a preparatory school, renowned for it valor ami brains. In the fall of the age of 1898 there entered this school a class: a class green and erudite as the average class is enidite and green. They studied I-atin and Mathematics and Chemistry and various things, and worked in a silent, gentle way to scrajH and file and hammer and mould and round out this greenly erudite class. In time the class was seated higher in cha| el. ami began to frizz its hair and wear white collars ami sit on the stairs and—study. It became even as a nurse unto other classes which needed nursing. In the year 1978 an old and patient man was digging on a hill, lie was an old man ami patient, because no oilier kind of a human could do what he was doing. I11 the nervous, aimless manner of a child he was digging away in a � ast layer of sandv soil. He was one day resting from his self-enforced work on a scat of ancient style, known to antiquity as a stair, lie was sleepily smoking the student's friend, the cigarette. As lie was thus delightfully engaged, lie was accosted by an old, wrinkled, weazened woman, in a queer-looking dress. I11 the place of a skirt she wore two large, roomy hags, in a sort of a trouser fashion; a loose waist or blouse adorned the upper body, while a square collar and large, roomy sleeves completed the costume. On her head was a small cap, with some faded letters embroidered on the front. She was picking up chips from the site of an ancient hyacinth and tulip bed, when she addressed him thus: “Poor, weak-minded old man: what are you doing?” He smoked on in peace, till his “snipe became too rank, then said: “Don’t bother me thus: I am digging and delving in this arid desert because I have an idea. It is this: In the course of my travels in Parkeronia, I found a faded, yellow manuscript. It was tacked on the side of a house to keep out the cold and wind. hie day I ! cgan to read it. and became very much interested. It told of a famous university, and I remembered having attended such a school once myself. It was the University of Denver, and from what I can recall, this is the location. “The University of Denver. the old woman said. “Why, I think I attended it once, myself. Yes. I am sure!” “You did. really now? Then was heard a funny sound. U! VI U—of—D! The old man began thus, and soon he was joined in the classic quotation by the cracklv voice of the woman. Then. ‘‘Hack—a—racker! Hack—a—rackcr.” was sounded. Then at last. “Rig—a—chix! Rig—a—chix! We’re the class of nineteen six! was shouted lustily in the quavering voices of age. “Who are you? said he. and “Who are you? said she. “Why, I am Belle Boyd, class nineteen six. D. U. S3 “And 1 am Howard Louthan. class nineteen six, D. U. “Um-m.” said the old woman, and “Um-m,” said the old man. Then followed an exchange of talk and gossip of bygone years. Louthan had been an extensive traveler, having been graduated in the class ot 1914. of the IX U. School of Medicine, and after that going about the world in search of wonders; and his last discovery had brought him to the site of the old university. Belle Boyd had played basket-ball until she was too old. and then had begun a hermit’s life in a deserted building with rounded, metal dome, which she could move al out by turning a crank, and so scare away the savages and mosquitoes. Then the talk gradually drifted to classmates. The mention of Parker-onia had aroused the old woman’s curiosity. “Why, Parker, of our class, discovered this land. He was a famous dis- , coverer, finding two new bugs and an extinct brickyard near here. And Stuart and Tescli were the greatest firm of lawyers in the city of Cherrylin. You remember Ward? Well, be started in as driver on the Cherrylin car line, and before very long he owned miles upon miles of railroad. It’s said that he drove a golden spike into more railroads than any other man.” “Maude Haskell was the teacher of a large class in chemistry when 1 last heard of her, and she had discovered a new way to boil water. I lelcn Stidger was the greatest actress of her time, playing mostly as Mrs. Blue Beard; and Miss Alter went to live in Germany soon after her graduation.’’ “And Miss Vaughn I met in Africa in 1950. She was teaching the natives dressmaking. John Evans was a great orator. I Ic gave the sjx ech which caused the passage of the Aerial Tramway bill.” The old woman pressed her wrinkled brow and seemed deep in thought. Finally she asked. “Who was it who always suggested such fine refreshments? And she also played basket-ball ’ “Oh. you mean Ada Bonnett. She was a great prinia donna for some years, and then suddenly eloped with Earl Dole, the senator. There was a great scandal for some time, hut it blew over. Svlvia Smith was the one who started it. She was president of a ladies’ culture club, and wanted Dole herself. But Frank Williams, who was a judge of the Supreme court, would not take up the case for her. so she jumped over the bridge into Platte River, when Williams happened to he near. She sprained her ankle, and was so incensed that he did not help her, that she never S|K)ke to him again.” “How like her.” said the woman. Then again was heard a queer sound: “Big—a—chix !

Far off to the West the mountains reared their shaggy peaks to the heavens. Two heaps of bones lay on the sand, near a little excavation.

The male deities were llowe, the god of industry; Henderson, K., ruler of the sea; Murphy, the god of light, of music, ami of prophecy; Henderson, M.. the god of war; Schuler, the deformed god of fire, and the forger of the thunderbolts of Howe; DeWeese, the wing-footed herald of the celestials, the god of invention and commerce, himself a thief and patron of thieves. The female divinities were Holbrook, the proud and jealous queen of Howe; Libby, the goddess of wisdom, and the patroness of the domestic arts; Lawson, the goddess of the chase; Moore, the goddess of love and beauty; Milheim, the goddess of the hearth; Hilton, the goddess of grains and harvests. These great deities were simply magnified human beings, possessing all their virtues, and often their weaknesses. They give way to fits of anger and jealousy. “Howe deceives,” and “Holbrook is constantly practicing her wiles.’' All the “Preps,” at the sight of Schuler limping across the school-room lloor, burst into “inextinguishable laughter,” ami Moore, weeping, moves all to tears. They surpass mortals rather in power than in size of body. They can render themselves visible or invisible to human eyes. Their f x d is ambrosia ami nectar; their movements are swift as light. They may suffer pain, hut death can never come to them, for they are immortal. Their alxxle is University Park, ami the vapor regions of learning, the school-room. Besides the gods and goddesses that constituted the Prep council, there was an almost infinitive number of other Preps, celestial | ersonagcs. and monsters neither human nor divine. Collins ruled over the lower realms; Williams was the god of wine; the goddess Gooldy was the punisher of crime, and | articularly the queller of the proud and arrogant; Brenzakofer was the ruler of the winds, which she confined in a cave secured by mighty gates. Besides these, there were Long and Long, sea-monsters. that made perilous flu passage of the campus gate. In the early ages the gods were wont, it was believed, to visit the earth and mingle with men. But in these later and more degenerate times, the recognized modes of divine communications with men were by Latin, by the casual and unusual sounds, a sudden temj cst of Tales from a Wayside Inn; particularly Legends of Sleepy Hollow. As these were supposed to mount to a great height, and to know the secrets of the clouds. The art of interpreting these signs or omens was called algebra. 86 FRESHMAN-PREP FOOT-BALL TEAM The winning Freshman team stalked proud From off the foot-ball Heaven— There were three whole ribs in the crowd. Five noses leaned uneven— One leg lay in a plaster shroud, And the dents in the skulls were seven. Their sweaters mud from neck to belt. No frat. pins did adorn; Hut‘breast-plates of the iTepdom's scalps Were very meekly worn; The muscles ’neat It their blackened eyes Were swelled liked popped corn. The captain grinned from out his splints, And rubbed his battered knee, “Now, by the great two-edged hornspoon. We’ve knocked ’em cold,” said lie; “They’ll tear what hair they’ve left, I think. ()’er a score so hard to see. The half back turned his stiffened neck And winked a fishy eye, “Yea, they’re our meat,” he mused, and yet Met hough t I heard him sigh. “When that they saw our last touch-down They wandered off to die.” He sighed again. “And yet.” he said. Less sad of speech than mild. “They put us tip a red hot game. Forsooth it made ’em wild To see us fall down on their score I don’t think.’’ and he smiled. And now, he dropped his muddy head And hid his war-scarred ears. And now ‘tis done, the team rose up With bitter taunts and fleers. But knew ’twas true, they turned away And wept. ( 1 heard their tears.) 87 W. J. P. PREPARATORY STUDENTS do Clara AlterJ Jacob Goldhatnmcr. Bessie McKay. C. H. Adams. Guy Griffiths. • Fannie Marks. Earl Atkins. Nellie Gooldy. Grace Miller.

It is for work, and most of its students come to get out all that can be gotten from it. True, a few attend for credit mostly, that they may jump up a class the following school year and thus appear brilliant to the unsophisticated. but these are only a few. There are no oratorical associations to support, with dues and subscriptions: no athletic fees to pay and benefits to attend; no class expenses for gettings pictures in the Annual, etc.: no banquets to deplete one's pocketbook; in fact, in many respects it is a blessed place to be just for comfort, if nothing else. The windows, stairways, halls and shady lawns may not lx used so much as in other times; there is less talking in the library: the matting lasts longer, and it may be a little slow:” but it is good on the nerves, and probably not detrimental to the acquiring of knowledge. If one wants to attend the Summer School for the benefit to be gotten from it. he will find much in any of the courses offered. Most of the instructors are the regular professors of the College department. The others are among the best known educators of Denver. The school is of especial benefit for those students who, on account of age, find it necessary to finish in less than four years. It solves the problem of shortening the period spent in college without the disadvantages which come from carrying too many hours of work. 91 92 ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION Honorary President, President...........

At last, when the school year opened, with a coach on hand, all our hopes were very high. Practice was at first well attended, and, with two teams in the field, much progress was being made, but as the season wore on the number of candidates for the team gradually diminished until, when we went into the first game, the handicap, due to the lack of practice against a second team, was manifest in every play. Defeat followed defeat. The suj -port of the student body, which should be given much more heartily to a losing team that to a winning one. seemed waning. Still, the boys struggled on. With lack of means, discouragement and defeat lying heaped up before them, they met them bravely and continued in that perseverance which ‘'conquers all things. Soon the work of the team showed a marked improvement, Defeats came only after a long, hard struggle, ami our team ended the season by going down to a glorious defeat before the superior weight and professionalism of the Leadville Athletic Club, with a score of 6-o; although outweighted, it was generally acknowledged that D. C. played them clear off their feet. To each of the boys who stuck by the team through “thick and thin. “up-hill and down, and to those who supported them as unfalteringly, is due the highest praise of the whole student body. Tis such determination as this that makes winning teams, and if we can add to this the loyal and hearty support of the whole student body, in a few years a banner denoting “The Inter-Collegiate l aot-ball Championship of Colorado,” will adorn our College hall.

Once again our forces have rallied with lusty voice and a sea of color to the support of our chosen representatives—and once again a magnificent effort, the result of weeks and months of concentration and determined preparation, has responded to our confident enthusiasm and we have borne the winning orator from the scene of his success, amid a gorgeous burst of crimson and gold and the triumphant music of a hundred throats—each member of our happy throng feeling a sense of personal success, sharing the exultation of the winner in his winning. THE CONTEST From among the six contestants in the '‘Local.’’ Beckwith and Morse met with approval from the judges, and were set a-training for the “State.” A few short weeks pass and the 21st of February arrives. The state contest is a major event in the year’s college history. The spirit of competition, the enthusiasm of trying, the satisfaction of winning—these are a few of the possibilities which serve to arouse the latent college spirit. Nothing so inspires as the feeling that “We’re going to win.” This year that source of inspiration was with us. With every hope and a firm confidence of our success, the student interest ran high. Thanks to the strenuous efforts of the State President, Alter, and the assured “backing” of a number of his friends, a special train was secured, and we left for the “Springs” seventy-five strong, with colors flying and spirits high. A gross of boxes of Frog in Your Throat” was stowed in the luggage to meet all possible exigencies. The large Boulder delegation, consisting of an English Professor and a law student, assured us of a powerful rivalry in the yelling contest. Arrived at the “Springs’ we were received by a husky-voiced aggregation from the “College,” and were led away “up street, where we scattered. The fellows who had been fortunate enough to l orro v “the necessary”—and had l een successful in “asking”—hied themselves and their maids whither they might sjK nd most of their friend’s money—others sponged on their friends for a meal—the rest of us dined on a chop, with a tooth-pick to follow, and were at ease. We gather at Berkins Hall. The orange and black is there. A little hunch of silver and gold is stowed away, and a solid mass of crimson and gold ribbon and pennants, in the “arc light’s dull glare shows that we are all there. 104 The usual “howling begins: Pike’s Peak or Bust! B-O-U-L-D-E-R! and U., U., U. of D. are all vicing with one another in one wildly enthusiastic medley of sound. The air is cut by the motion of canes and the swishing of streamers. The excitement reaches its height—suddenly the President comes on—there is silence—a few words—a piece of music—then, the contest is on. Morse, of D. U.. sj eaks on The Mission of the Sword. Robinson, of Colorado College, pleads for The Under Man, Schey, of Boulder, discourses The Xegro Questions of To-dav, Beckwith follows with Thinking and Feeling: Their Focus, Packard presents Martin Luther’s Example and Coon makes A Plea for Cuba. The contest is over. Denver has won; Boulder has oratedColorado College, to quote from the Colorado Springs Telegraph, has “also spoken. We are proud of our record in oratory. We arc proud of all the men who have won our contests for us. We are proud of the man who distinguished himself and his school this year—Loring D.

The debating club for the young ladies of the College has witnessed a number of years of successful and enjoyable work. It was organized in May, 1898, with the help of Miss Wirt and Miss Ingersoll; its first president being Miss Stover. It has followed along the accustomed lines of public speaking and parliamentary practice, with the additional element of literary reviews. Such questions and topics have been considered as would give not only practice in handling them, but also facts of a practical nature. Thus, the great political movements have been an important topic, as well as the literary forces of the day. The regular meetings are not open to the public, but special open meetings have been held from time to time. As a result the club is one of the strongest and most important of the college organizations. THE FORTNIGHTLY IN SESSION 109 President..... Vice-President Secretary..... Treasurer ---- OFFICERS ____Edwin Green ....Ruel Loucks James D. Mitchell . Evaristo Paredes The Adelphian Literary Society was organized in May, 1898. Up to that time there had been no society for the Preparatory Students alone, and the need of such a society was seen by Prof. E. R. T. Spencer. Upon his suggestion, the Adelphian was organized, being named after the society of which he was a mem-her in De Pauw. The programs consist of debates, speeches, extemporaneous and prepared, essays, recitations and parliamentary practice. For the latter, the Adelphian has been especially noted, the men going from it into the Debating Club showing the result of careful and thorough work. The society meets on Friday afternoons, in a room in University Hall. The cut shows the Adelphian in session in its room. It is hoped the society may continue in its good work, and he known for the excellence of its training and the worth of its men. Following are Edwin (i. Green. Otto Johnson. Paul llrisscnden.

The tailor verily cutteth ami sewetli. but he maketh it not so. And then the man. being weary, sayeth I will take it as it now is and hie out of here. And now the man goeth on the highway and his bosom friend accosts him and sayeth, I admire thy taste for thy coat is as the garments of some who have lain in their tomb these ten years; friend, it is out of style. But the man outwardly heedeth him not. hut goeth on his way. and next he meeteth a fair friend of his. very dear to his heart, and she sayeth. Thy coat hangeth as the flap of a tent on a windy day. Where did you get it ? And again, outwardly, he heedeth not but inwardly sayeth, I low great a tumult an inch of cloth too much or too little causeth. And so he goeth on his way ami fortifleth his mind with fables or with philosophy ami longeth for the days when his beloved ancestor, the father of his race, sat on the limb of a tree and winding his appendages on other limbs went to sleep. Again there be those who are like unto one who standeth at the corner of the street when he seeth an enemy go by. lie rageth in his heart and sayeth. Behold him who hath done me evil. Go to now. I will take of this mud from under my feet and cover him with it. Thereupon he taketh of the mud, and throweth. And soon he placet!) his hand in his bosom, or in his trousers pockets, and he himself is defiled. And then, he sayeth to himself.

This movement, which was begun with only six members, has spread until it encircles the globe. Not the least important part of the work is done by the College Associations. The Association in Denver University was founded in i ji. Since then it has grown steadily and now numbers sixty-five members. Much active, earnest work has been done and many a girl has been led to a better life as a result. Devotional meetings are held every week. Leaders are chosen usually from among the students, and topics of interest to the girls are assigned. The attendance is usually very good. The State Secretary, Miss McCorkle. was with the Association almost a week in February. Her visit was of great benefit, both to individual members and to the Association as a whole. New interest was awakened and a desire to do more efficient work. The Denver University Association entertained the convention of the State College Associations in October. The meetings were both pleasant ami profitable. The work is not all local. For several years the Association has sent a Christmas box to a mission school in Albuquerque, N. M., and the slight efforts of the contributors is more than repaid by the appreciation of the mission girls. The Association’s yearly subscription of $20.00, for the sup|x rt of the girl in China, was raised, with a small surplus toward next year’s subscription. How joyfully would the money be given each year could the givers realize what their small sacrifices mean to the little Chinese girl for whom they are made. A keen realization of the possibilities of the Association furnishes the strongest incentive to interest in its work. 117 OFFICERS President ice-President Secretary...... Treasurer.... .Arthi’k Clements L. M. PotASHINSKY .......T. L. Bliss .F. E. C. Williams The Young Men's Christian Association of the University of Denver was organized by John R. Mott. May 27. 1891. with a membership of twenty-five. Its influence upon the religious life of the students has ever been strong and helpful; a number of young men in past years having Ijeen given the incentive to a life of Christian service and trained to greater usefulness. And to-dav. could we realize what the University would be without the Christian associations, we would be better able to judge of the true value of its work. All its frtiit-l earing and beneficial influences do not always come to our notice. We aim at the all-around development of body, mind and spirit; to Ik of mutual aid in attaining our ideals; to make Christ first in our individual lives; to emphasize upon our fellow students, the need of a power in our lives, outside ourselves and the need of Christ as a personal Savior. Though religious matters are considered of first importance, the social side is not neglected. We are identified with the far-reaching work of the International Y. M. C. A. Committee, which embraces the world’s Student Christian Federation. For several ears our Association has stipjK� rted a native missionary in India. Moti Lai, of Puranpur. Considering the good that he is doing ami the need of that field, this worker is worthy of our heartiest support. A long felt need has been satisfied during the past year. Through the kindness of the Chancellor and faculty, the room formerly used for faculty meetings has been granted for our exclusive use. Its quietness and comfortable chairs ami rockers make it a delightful place to hold cabinet meetings, to study, and to hold profitable conversation. Interesting and instructive reading matter is found on the table. This room has also served well for classes in the study of missions and the Bible. Our neat little hand-book has indeed proved very handy and greatly appreciated by all. The Association lias been instrumental in securing employment and hoard and room for a number of young men. Members of the Association are entitled to the privileges of the Central Association of Denver at one-half the regular membership fee.

The old college chapel was variously decorated in the class colors of blue and gold, while the Juniors, in sheets and rattles, cleverly made themselves conspicuous by occupying elevated box seats, from which issued sundry dreadful sounds whenever an honorable member of said body was “hit” by the actors on the stage. The following program seemed to capture the audience and the wary eye of the faculty and student body: The curtain arose, and one by one the members of the faculty appeared and assembled for their usual Tuesday afternoon session. The professors’ complexions waxed and waned, but finally a smile of recognition, approval, and jolly, good nature overcame their vanity. Grace Sater apjieared as Chancellor Buchtel; Elise Jones, as Prof. I. E. Cutler; Ethel Antrim, as Prof. E. Li. T. Spencer; Chas. Camine as Dr. A. B. Hyde; Mrs. Beard, as Prof Etta L. Miller; Chas.

The class of 1901 had originality; it presented to the class which was most popular in college and also held the highest rank in scholarship, a long robe of red and gold decorated with a blue 1901. Our friends, the Juniors, received this honor, and Mr. John Stephenson, with dignity, represented the class of 1902. After this robing ceremony a lottery wheel appeared upon the stage, and one by one the Juniors drew their prizes, such as; Fred Stover, a globe representing the earth: Jessie Kunkeley. a large horse collar; John Stephenson, a pipe and cabbage; Anna Berry, a time-table; Chellie Stevens, a chair with double springs; Walter Sheldon, a pair of baby shoes: Loring 1). Beckwith, a barrel of ink. jar of pills for swelled head; Marion Van Dyne, a spade. Chas. Seitter. with the class in caps and gowns surrounding him. presented to the College the lias-relief of “The Trumpeters.” After this the class farce. “The Juniors’ Way.” adopted from a play of Bang's, called forth the applause of the audience.

And there came among them a man called the Chief Grafter. Now saycth the Chief Grafter, The land must be surveyed or the lake may not be level.” So it came to pass that with the aid of a transit and much mathematics they did run a level. And the waters rose upon the dam and the men of Denver did dig. But during the darkness of night the dam did break, and in the region of the milkman there was a high flood. It drowneth many cattle and mixed much water with the milkman’s wrath. And the temper of the milkman waxeth warm, and he cometh unto the men of Denver and spake to the Chief Grafter, saying, Who giveth the men of Denver the power to build this lake?” And replieth the Chief Grafter, “We take it.” And the milkman asketh, Who be at the head of this building?” but he replieth, saying, “It bath no head.” And he asketh, Is the master of athletics of yonder temple of learning at the head of this building?” But replieth the Chief Grafter, Nay. it hath no head,” and the milkman went his way, although it he a waterv one. K. 143 MISCELLANEOUS 144 THE ETERNAL FEMININE (Prize winner in the Kvnewisbok Story Contest.) Observations made by Charles Dunham Marlow. B.-A. Some people are continually worrying for fear a college education will crowd the eternal feminine out of a girl. I can tell them they had better save themselves the trouble, and I certainly ought to know, for I am a B. A., and from a co-educational college. Also, I boarded in the same house with my twin sister, and so. for four years, had the opportunity of observing her natural tastes and instincts, unrestrained as they were by any maternal influence. I can truthfully say that I never saw the time when she was unwilling to lay down her calculus in order to take up a flirtation, or when she complained that a dance was fatiguing, whatever she might think of the French’ Revolution. (Perhaps I might as well mention right here that when Flizabeth claims to have pulled me through my calculus exams at the fag end of her apron strings, she purposely exaggerates and is some yards from the truth.) In the same house with us there lived a pretty fluffy girl from New Orleans. Elizabeth was impossibly fond of Fanny until she found out tliat I admired her. and then she began to knock her privately. This was not. of course, in the least feminine. But just to illustrate my point, that a college curriculum can’t demolish the natural instincts of a woman. I will tell you of an incident that hap|)ened just a short time ago, since we have been at home. I am a medic now, and Klizal eth has at last succeeded in capturing a hapless wight and is prej� aring to make him blessed for life. Fanny is thousands of miles away in New Orleans. It seems that early in the autumn Elizabeth got hold of a list of premiums offered for the wrappers of some widely advertised soap. I don't know what soap it was. but Elizabeth could no more withstand the attractions of that premium list than she could help sending ten cents car-fare the other day in going from one store where they sell “The Eternal City” at $1.05 to another, far distant, where she could get it for 98 cents. She put in her spare time collecting soap wrappers, even so far forgetting her self-respect as to canvass the neighborhood for them. A few weeks before Christmas she had succeeded in scraping some fifty together. Then she sent for her premium. It was a pin. very thinly plated with gold—a bow-knot affair with a rhinestone stuck in the middle of it. I think you could have bought it in any department store for twenty-five cents. 145 Elizabeth was so pleased over it that I could not help remonstrating. 1 showed her that she had put in many hours fussing over the soap wrappers, that our father had spent a good deal of money and she herself four years and much energy in getting her a college education, and that her time really ought to Ik worth as much as twenty-five cents an hour. It was not such a difficult problem for a girl who had led her class in analytics, hut Elizabeth's reply was so absurdly and femininely illogical that I could find no answer to it. Oh. but I’d never think of sending twenty-five cents for it.” she said. She looked so feminine as she sat bending over the thing in the firelight that I would have thought her quite pretty it she hadn't been my sister. “Are you going to wear it?” I asked. “Mercy, no!” cried Elizal eth. her tone mingling indignation with a sort of astonished compassion for my ignorance. I humbly inquired what might be. then, its destined end or way. Elizabeth considered. “I think I shall send it to Fannie for a Christmas present, she announced at length. “I want her to have some little remembrance of me, the dear child.” This time her tone expressed the sweetness of self-sacrificing generosity. Elizabeth could not send the pin unless she had a box to send it in. ami none but a box inscribed with the name of the leading jeweler of our city would do at all. (Vet she had stood well in ethics at college.) At last, after rummaging mercilessly in the top drawer of my dresser, she found one, containing the gold cuff links that my best girl had sent me. She took it. and abstracted also three photographs of as many pretty girls, which she jealously burnt, and my best-looking necktie, with which she adorned her white flannel shirt waist. When the pin lay reposing on white cotton in the box, it didn't look so bad; as Elizabeth said, “It would be quite sweet if one didn't know that it had its origin in soap w'rappers.” Ah. feminine inconsistency! I pointed out to her that that was its chief merit. Elizabeth paid no attention to me. “Eannv will exclaim over it. she remarked in her modern-novelist style. She wrote a sweet little note to Fanny, which she showed me. for we are twins, and she gave both it and the pin to the postman one morning about a week before Christmas. file same day, in the afternoon, he | asscd in to her a letter ami a little box, and both were postmarked Nnv Orleans. It’s from Fanny,” said Elizabeth. “How glad I am now that I sent her something, too.” I followed her into the library ami we took the wrappings off the little l)o. . It bore the name of a leading jeweler of New Means. We took the lid off. There, in pale blue cotton las a pin, a bow-knot affair, with a rhinestone stuck in the middle. lib It seems they have soap in Louisiana, too. 1 toppled over into the nearest chair, and when my shouts had sufficiently Mibsided. I heard a sound of sobbing from behind Elizabeth's hands, in which she had hidden her face. “Of—all—mean—things!’ she choked out. snuffling. Then she got mad at my renewed laughter, and threw box and pin at me. I crossed over to her. “It is mean. Elizabeth, I said; almost as mean as the woman who borrowed a neigh tor's house to give a party in because her own was too small, and then didn’t invite the neighbor. Elizabeth looked up. a bit comforted. I patted her shoulder. She looked so tremulous and tcary that I think I would have done more than that if 1 had not been her brother. I Jut because I am her brother I could not help calling back to her as I went out of the door. “Aren’t you glad you sent Fanny something, too. Elizabeth? Don’t you think she will exclaim over it?’’ 147 BECKWITH AT EXAMS Ji looked extremely rocky for the ta gic class that day. For every one admitted that the mischief was to jxay. Their average was 69. so unless they took a brace It looked exceeding probable they’d have to leave the place. A straggly few got tip to go. leaving there the rest. With that hope that springs eternal within the human breast. For they thought if only I leek with didn’t get some awful slams— They'd put up even money on Beckwith at exams. There was Clark as well as Beckwith, and likewise also (Jriff, But the former was a puddin’ and the latter was a stiff. So on that stricken Logic class a death-like silence sat. For there wasn't any one of them that knew where he was at. But Veazie did the first one to the wonderment of all, And the much-despised Hart sock turned in a mighty call. Though when the fog had lifted they saw what had occurred. Before all had done the second even, the Prof, gave out the third. Then from the saddened Logic class went up a mournful bawl. It rumbled in the library, it rattled in the hall; It struck upon the banister and resounded on the stair. Yet Beckwith, mighty Beckwith, was still a-sitting there. There was ease in Beckwith's manner as he sat there in his place: There was pride in Beckwith's bearing and a smile on Beckwith’s face. And when responding to the Prof, he answered quick the quiz, Xo stranger in the class could doubt that Beckwith knew his biz. Two dozen eyes were on him. this man in cap and gown— A dozen people waited to see him get turned down. Then when the mighty Beckwith seemed to get a bit too flip. Defiance glanced in Phillip’s eye. a sneer curled Phillip’s lip. And now the fourth great question came floating through the air. And Beckwith sat a listenin’ in haughty grandeur there. Fast bv the learned Senior the time unheeded sped. “That aim my style,” said Beckwith. Flunk one. Doc. Phillips said. From the chairs all full of students went up a muffled r ar Like the l eating of the storm waves on the stern and distant shore. “Kill him, kill Doc. Phillips, murmured some one in the hall. And it s likely they’d have killed him had not Beckwith stopjK'd it all. With a smile of Christian charity, great Beckwith's vjsage shone. 148 He stilled the rising murmurs, he let exams go on. He signalled to the teacher and once more the question flew. But Beckwith still ignored it and Doc. Phillips said “Flunk two.” “Fraud,” whispered all the class-room, and the echo answered “Fraud.” But one scornful look from Beckwith and the lot of them were awed. They saw his face grow stern ami cold; they saw his muscles strain. And they knew that Beckwith wouldn’t make another break again. The sneer is gone from Beckwith’s lip. he squirms upon his chair: He draws with cruel vengeance his fingers through his hair. Now the Doctor tells the question, now he gives it out again ; Now Beckwith’s sheet is covered with strange marks from Beckwith’s pen. Oh. somewhere in this favored land the sun is shining bright. The band is playing somewhere, and somewhere hearts are light. And somewhere Preps are laughing, and somewhere Juniors shout. But there’s no joy in Logic, mighty Beckwith has flunked out. 149 TWO WAYS How Phyllis grows in mental strength I How she recites In (ireek and Latin to such length! How she delights In deep Philosophy; ami sees Beneath its guise False logic, and bad premises: Ah. she grows wondrous wise! While I grow wondrous whiskers. ORDER OF THE CATASTOMI.

Our Literary Curiosity Kditor informs 11s that according to his translation “it signifies the unintermitted yearning of the vital j o ver of an animated living, to penetrate jnto the incomprehensible enigmas which encompass one who enlists in the pursuit of indubitable apprehensions.” His rendition is as follows: THE STUDENT'S RUBAIYAT 1.

If a quart brick holds two pounds of ice cream, how many pounds of it will Ault contain after a Y. W. C. A. reception? 2. If Miss Ueggs gives 150 lines of Plautus per diem to the Senior Latin class, how many orations of Cicero per hour would she exjiect a fourth-year Prep to memorize? 3. If a Senior can learn his Prep German lesson in eleven hours without a crib, how many days will it take him to get up three | agcs of Soph Physics? 4. If 2 g. of Ferrous Sulphate will reduce 3 g. of Potassium Permanganate, how many tons of it are required to do the same for a Senior’s head? 5. If a Soph-Freshman rush will make the Chancellor warm when the thermometer is at freezing point, how many upj er class rows arc necessary to heat the faculty-room in winter-time? AS USUAL W hen I heard she was married I shed not a tear. For old loves are buried. I heard she was married. A light heart I carried. For I loved her last year. W hen 1 heard she was married I shed not a tear. 152 THE D. U. PRIMER Is this a ham? So, it is a Freshman’s lunch-box. Is there anything' in it ? Yes, my child, it holds a can of jelly, five sandwiches, two pies, three pieces of cake, a bag of peanuts, an apple and a bottle of cold tea. Will the Freshman eat all that? Of course not; a Sophomore will come up and graft all his cake and pic, and fruit and cold tea, and the Freshman will have to feed on the sandwiches. Clements (in chair, in Debating Club, during parliamentary practice) — “Well, gentlemen, I need a little pollymentary practice myself.” Di Lc Rossignot—“College students sometimes remind me of students considerably younger. 1 once taught a school composed of children of a certain age. and 1 am quite often reminded of them by college students Dr. H.

U. PRIMER This is a hose. It is out on the lawn. Let us take it and put the business end down under that tree where the Kappas all eat their lunch. Then, when they come out and sit down, we will turn the water on and the Kappas will all feel as if they had taken a shower bath in the basement.

THE FACULTY The Fakulty is a very useful animal. It is used to give you credits when you are good except when it flunks you because you are on itss bad side. It is also useful to keep Freshies and Sophs from filing in the hall it is also useful to keep things alive by stibscribin to athletics. The Fakulty comes in when it thinks that students aint act in rite and makes them do as it wants. ATHLETICS Athletics is a promient feture of every colidge. They give fellows a chanst to show their ability. Some fellows show their ability by the way they play; other fellows show their abillti by the way they get the games without playing; other fellows show their ability by the way they root.

Some wag had dubbed him “Charlie the Superlative.” because of his exaggerated manner of speaking. Another nickname was “Charlie in the Highest.” which was also a reference to the degree of his adjectives. He was a “special,” having just entered from some eastern institution, and taken senior studies without ranking up. It had been whispered about at the time that he objected to paying the matriculation fee, for he said “once a matriculate, always a matriculate.” and he had once matriculated in the blast, and should be considered a matriculate wherever he chose to attend. At first he was in high favor with the girls, but when, one by one, they discovered that his honeyed compliments and superlatives were strewn about the halls with utter disregard for consistency, all this was changed. Toward the boys his conduct was practically the same, and with them his fate was equally humiliating, or would have been had he been able to realize how unpopular he was: but he thought himself a great success; he easily explained away any misgivings that arose within him. The girl who did not succumb to his blandishments and adjectives was so unappreciative as to be really dull. The boy who could not be flattered by his attentions was ignorant of his real privileges, and those who presumed to differ from him in regard to class matters had been badly raised. To any who actively opposed him, or were supposed to be guilty of that indiscretion, he showed a still different side. For such he had a choice vocabulary of invective, and upon certain occasions his language and tone vied with each other for the credit of being the most insulting. All this, of course, was secretly laid up. as one of the students put it, “against that day when Super should ‘open his king row.’ ” It happened that the girls were the first “to get a king.” Some wag had secured the pictures of three of the prettiest girls in the school and had entered them in a beauty contest. This was Charlie’s opportunity. He told each of them that lie Imped she would win. and incidentally threw into his remarks a scries of adjectives indicative of a belief that she ought to win, and that he would help her do so. Before classes were over that day the three had compared notes. One of them seeing Super in a window-seat asked him if he was really in earnest in saying she deserved the beauty crown. Charlie’s affirmative answer was in the superlative degree. Just then beauty Xo. 2 approached, and throwing her anus around Xo. 1. said. “Xow. Carrie, that isn’t fair for you to try to get Mr. Blank to vote for you, for he is already pledged to me. aren’t you?” she asked, turning to him: “Didn’t you tell me I was the undoubted beauty queen, and that you would work for my election?” Before he could answer, beauty Xo. 3 arrived, and reminding Super that he had said she was beyond question entitled to the crown, told him she would hold him to his promise to help her secure first place in the contest. . Super could stand it no longer, and muttering something about “stupid things.” slammed the door and went out. The girls sat down in the window-seat and on the stairs and laughed till the people in distant parts of the building wondered what could be hapf cning. D. 157 CHARLES E. GRIFFIN LOUIS M. POTASH1NSKY GEORGE A. GEBHART ROBERT W. POUNDSTONE THE ORIGINAL PREPS. OF '95 Some one has said that student bodies are migratory. This seems to U true. Above is seen all that is left in our institution of a class of twenty or more first year Preps who signed the registrar’s lxx k in the fall of ’95. In those days the preparatory course was three years in length, so that any who entered seven years ago should graduate this year, provided the fates were kind. Of these four “originals,” not one has had an uninterrupted course. Some have been gone longer than others. Two of them hojie to graduate this year: the other two. whom fate had decreed should lose more time, will add two worthy names to classes vet to come. w Some one has remarked that it is strange that of these four who are left, all will preach. It will indeed Ik strange if they do. especially the two end men. We are all glad that we have been permitted to spend this seventh year here together. To those who have dropped out to get married, or who have suffered some other calamity, we can say: “ I were better that you were with us still. 158 D. A. D. NILADES Organized October, 1898.

The landlady, thinking that it contained his wardrobe, which was extensive, thought she was secured. But the trunk was empty—merely nailed to the floor to give it the appearance of weight. In it, however, was found this “reminiscence: “Well, ves, now that you remind me of it. I have played some pranks in college. I remember once that the faculty had been trying for some time to break up the rough house habit at the old I). U.—the 1). t . as it was in my day. Xone of the boys ever got hurt or ever got mad; but the “fac ’ was determined to break it up just the same. They were not wholly to blame either, for the scuttling was fast and furious at times and made a lot of disturbance, so one could scarcely blame them for wanting to stop it. Then too. the yelling of the rival classes always made the matter worse. W ell, one muddy day Stuart and Bayliss could scarcely wait for the car to reach the Park. Something was brewing. In Chapel. Dean Howe announced that there would lx? a meeting of the faculty at 12:10. The boys seemed to have been expecting the announcement. Bayliss could scarcely control himself as he heard it. He rubbed his hands in glee and winked at Czzell and Morse, anti those manly fellows looked laboriously out the window in an effort to suppress their risables when Bayliss displayed ostentatiously a handful of wedges. Martin had no class the next hour and slipjx� d down to the engine-room and borrowed all the hammers the engineer could find alxnit the place. “At 12:10 the faculty gathered in the room over the office, all except Dean Howe, who was unavoidably detained upon the second floor. Bliss was sent down hv the Dean to tell the rest of the faculty that he would Ik down in alxnit five minutes. Hunter succeeded in getting from Bliss the nature of his errand and the message. Czirkoskv was then sent with Hunter to the second tt x r with a heavy pajx r weight from Dr. Lc Rossignol’s room. Tcsch accompanied them, and Lee was sent up the other flight of stairs, timing his movements so as to meet Czirkoskv and Hunter in front of the Dean’s room. I lurrying through the hall. Lee managed to collide with Hunter and threw him violently against the Dean’s door. The door closed with a slam. The IX an looked tip quickly and started to investigate, hut hearing Lee’s loud apology, went on with his work, wholly unconscious of the fact that Hunter had slipped a wedge beneath the closed door. Under cover of a clog dance by Czirkoskv, Lee drove the wedge home with the paper weight. 161 “At the end of the hall Poundstone signalled to Sheldon below that all was well above. Sheldon hurried with the word to Pot ash insky, who had been stationed as lookout in the lower hall. Carnes and Whittaker at once placed wedges beneath the doors leading into the faculty rooms, and C hapman and I’zzell hip-hopped l ack and forth j ast the door while I r. Drake drove the wedges in. “A lot of the Pi Phi girls, who had been watching from a safe distance, came up to make sure that the wedges were secure, and after examining them (from a distance of ten feet) to make sure that the faculty could not escape, hurried off to call the other girls. I’zzell was just in the act of filling his lungs for a war whoop when the whole company was thrown into consternation by the appearance of Prof. Spencer, coming from his room with that |H'cuIiar nervous step, so characteristic of the man. All supposed that he was within the faculty rooms. He had almost reached the door and exposed the whole conspiracy when Ruth W allace stopped him to ask if he had found the petition which the girls had left upon his desk. He had not; but as he had never yet failed in the performance of his duty 1 among which was the reading of petitions l cforc the faculty, he being the faculty secretary), he returned for the missing petition. He pushed his way through a trio of clog dancers, who were exercising violently just at his door, and re-entered his room. One of the dancers slipped, and falling against the door, closed it. In an instant several stalwart fellows came to the fellow’s rescue, and in their clumsy efforts to lift him to his feet, succeeded in driving a wedge beneath the door. 'As soon as it was seen that the door was really secure. I’zzcll. who had been holding the breath he had drawn for that war whoop, seeing that the coast was now clear, let it out, and—” The MS. was torn here and the rest could not be made out. The landlady never could be sure whether it was a mere pipe dream or an historic account of the shady past of her roomer. Possibly later investigations will throw light ti|K n the question. Jfa2 THE TRIALS OF A BACHELOR W hat a pity that I shall live in this cosy parsonage all alone! What has my life been these years since I left the sacred halls of I). I’., with its fair maidens? Ah. ves, of whom the gods might well l e envious! What would I not give for a queen to rule my household; to be my idol, my supreme delight! What! the postman already! O, the girls! the girls! My dear Evesdale: “Come to Denver at earliest convenience. Have wife picked out for you. “Very affectionately. PREXY. ’ Dear old Prexy! So lie’s been on the lookout for a wife for me. How good of him! ♦ Hello, Central. 5503. please. Yes. This Rev. Taddles? I just wanted to ask Doctor, if you can supply my pulpit for a week or so. I'm called to Denver on urgent business. You will? O, thank you. Doctor; my greatest delight will be to serve you in return. Well, well, Prexv, you can’t imagine how glad your letter made me. She’s in the chapel? That she? W hat a beauty! How charmingly dignified! Thank you, if I could sit on the platform it would Ik handier to sec her. Wonder if she is eyeing me. I’m not a had looking fellow. She might do a heap worse. Will I see her after chapel, 1 wonder! ♦ There she is. with a dozen girls around her. How embarrassing! Bui ‘•faint heart ne’er won fair lady.” Will it be possible to pull her out of that throng.

But I’m going to capture her anyway. ’o woman but that want’s a home, and I have a cosy nest. Why. hello. Hattie! I’m awfully glad to see you. Say. I wonder if you won’t sjK ak a good word for me to Miss Dickson. I have come down to win her as my bride. 1 did a turn for you now ami then, you know'. And say: ask Rachel to do the same, won’t you? You can do it tactfully sort of. 163 Hello, Tom! So you are hack in college again? Glad to see you. Yc . I’m down on a visit, and incidentally a little business. Say, old man. when you see Miss Dickson, just say something mean about me, won't you. and see if she defends me? Isn't she a jewel! Certainly a most charming creature! I’m her prisoner, Tom. How often reveries tantalize me with a glimpse of my |K er-less queen, majestically arranging the affairs of my household, and I'm in ecstasy; but then, the hard and cold truth is driven home with cruel force as circumstances compel me to infer that 1 do not stand in her good graces. Gee Rusalcm, Tom, how 1 would like to get even the slightest sign of encouragement from the dear creature! I should be the happiest mortal on the planet. O, don't speak so, Tom. I supi ose I do seem a little soft, but just wait till you catch the fever. And I hope you'll have an equally precious jewel to strive for, too. But I must Ik going. I have to preach at her church to-morrow night, and of course, 1 want to make the best impression possible. Why, hello, Derc! What luck to meet you, too! Miss Steepstir, I’m pleased to make your acquaintance. Are yon bound for church, Here? To the Roga church? Well have company, then. By the way, Here, you know Misi Dickson, don’t you? You’re acquainted with her. too, Miss Steepstir? Belong to the same society? What a coincidence! She attends the Roga church, doesn't she? I thought so. I wonder if she’ll be there to-night! Say, Derc. that girl has certainly engraved her name and face deep in the inmost recesses of my heart! That’s right, laugh, old man! 1 sincerely crave pardon, Miss Steepstir, if my poetic nature makes it embarrassing for you. But, in the words of the immortal i oet. “Love knows no law.' Let me whisper in your ear. Derc. I must unburden my soul to you. Honest! I’m her captive. Sure pop! If I fly to the astral heights beyond, she there. If I go to the uttermost parts of the earth, she does not leave me. Wherever in fancy I fly, her angelic features haunt me! I must win her: I tell you, Derc, I must! My life won’t Ik worth a pinch of salt unless I can. I’d go crazy if anyone else got her. What? I ay siege to her affections? Isn’t that what I’ve tried to do? I've tried to take her by storm? Impossible, Dere! Can’t expect to win a girl like that in a week's visit? Well, pshaw, we might make a good start. Yes, perhaps I have a few things yet to learn. But, alas. Dere, I'm afraid I don’t stand in her good graces. ♦ Well, bow’d you like my sermon, Dere? O, thank you. Miss Steepstir; it’s very kind of you to say so. 1 was afraid I would he nervous; shaking iti a strange church, you know. Say, Dere. did you see the dear creature? 1 didn’t. She knew 1 was to preach there. I wonder if it wouldn’t do to call on her. It’s only half past nine. Don’t you think she ought to he home soon, Mr. Dickson? Half past ten! UA Why, here she is, putting up her hat and coat! Yes, we were waiting for you. Miss Dickson. It is late but I must have a word with you. I love you, Miss Dickson. I want you to become my wife. I know 1 shall never regret my choice. (). pray, don’t speak so coldly. I really didn’t stop to think whether you would ever regret your choice. I have a cosy little home. It is for you. My greatest delight will be to surround you with luxuries. But, my dear—Miss Dickson—pardon me. love for me will come in time: it’s bound to. Well, if I can’t get your answer now, won’t you promise to write to me? Xo? Miss Dickson, arc you aware that your coldness may mean the utter destruction of my life? Are you prepared to he responsible for my ruination? Say. Dere, please don’t disturb us yet. I’ll he ready to go in a moment. You’ll think about it. Miss Dickson? Thank you. That gives a ray of hope at any rate. How time docs fly! Eleven o’clock! Whew! Good night. Miss Dickson. Remain true to me and you’ll never regret it. Good night, Mr. Dickson. Yes, thank you; I had quite a pleasant time, Dere. But I’ll bet anything she was in the house all evening. Did you notice she didn't look at all as if she had been out in this cold evening air. I’m positive she put on her hat and coat simply as a ruse. You’re going that way? Well, good night. Miss Steepstir; ta ta, Dere. I’m going home to-morrow. Speak a good word for me when you can. but I’m afraid, Dere. I’m afraid I don’t stand in her good graces! “Where there’s a will, there’s a way.” 165 THETA He knows no Latin, French or Greek, Commits no Freshman crimes; In attitude serene and meek He still devours the Evening Times.

It was a dark and stormy night, The trees how thcv did clatter! 0 The wind it howled with all its might. And down the rain did jwtter. 2. The fire was glowing warm within Miss Lucy’s cosy parlor. The p’yano made a cheerful din While Lucy she did holler. 3- Just then the door-bell sounded loud, For it was made of metal; I hit Lucy she was mighty proud. The p'yano she did pedal. 4- The door-bell gave an awful sound And Lucy cleared her throat. Within her eyes a look profund! She trilled another note! 5- Again that door-bell gave a roar— A powerful, dreadful nimble. Then Lucy tip-toed to the door And smiled. “How he does grumble.” 6. Then Jack straightway his hat he doff’d W hile they stood there together. And Lucy giggled low and soft. “It’s kind o’ windy weather.” Whll. Lucy � ht did holler” 167 7- Now in Jack s eyes there came a look A-growing hard and harder. And straight at her his fists he shook And fiercely did regard her. 8. Then hack again his hat lie took. She asked him. ‘'What’s the matter?” It isn’t in the story book! He said, while looking at her. 9 “You smile ami ask the reason why. While I stand here a-freczin A liarrier comes 'twixt you and 1!

And straightway then he turned away. Poor Lucy’s suits broke loose. She’s never seen him since that day. She moans. “I was a goose! 12. Young girls, the moral is quite plain: 1 need say nothing more,— “Amidst a storm of wind and rain, Just hurry to the door.” N. M. V. (A learned Senior). 168 A LOGICAL CONCLUSION It was felt that Wallace, of the Senior class, was taking very little interest in the class affairs. To he sure, he had donned a cap and gown with the rest on the day set for their appearance in them; but several had remarked that he was not in the least enthusiastic, liven now that there was a well-defined rumor current among the Seniors that the Juniors were planning some coup, it seemed impossible to arouse any interest on the part of Wallace. There was considerable speculation concerning the probable reasons for the change. 'Fite girls were pretty well convinced that he was in love: but as one of them had incautiously hinted at her suspicion in his presence, they feared that he had taken alarm and was deliberately trying to conceal the real state of affairs. Partly to tease him and partly because they could not hear to he baffled in a matter so directly in their own line, the girls of the class had determined that they would solve the riddle as to the personality of the other party. As though to baffle them the more, Wallace succeeded admirably in distributing himself about among the young ladies. The Junior girls were aware of what was going on and were joining forces with those of the upper class. At length came the night of the Junior raid. They had skillfully allowed a hint of the raid to reach the Seniors, but with a false statement as to the date. The Seniors were taken unaware and all their caps and gowns captured hut Wallace’s. A Junior had succeeded in concealing himself in Wallace’s room, blit before he could get out again with the coveted regalia. Wallace re-entered. From his place of concealment the Junior could see all that took place. Wallace was undoubtedly nervous and perplexed. Langdon, from his place of concealment, could hear him muttering about the difficulties and embarrassment of some position in which he found himself, and heard him say something about winning out if he had to lay siege till he grew gray. Langdon was sure he heard the pronoun, “she.” He could see also that, as Wallace paced the floor, his glance fell frequently iqx n the photographs U]x n the mantel, and from what he had heard from his sister. Langdon was sure he was about to make a discovery. Wallace was evidently trying to study, but seemed not to lie making satisfactory headway. A book lay open upon his table. Langdon thought it looked like a logic, but was not certain. Suddenly Wallace stopped short in front of the mantel, his gaze riveted upon the picture of Miss Pauline Steve. Langdon heard him call her name, and then saw him turn sharply and hurry to his table with the exclamation. “I’ll just do it—if 1 fail. I’ll never tell it. and it is sure she wont: and if I succeed—and I will—why telling wont matter.” lie snatched a sheet of note paper and hurriedly wrote a few lines, then folding it neatly, thrust it into an envelope and went out. Langdon followed with the cap and gown. 169 The next morning one of the girls burst into the V. W. C. A. room, and with the exclamation “I know it’s wicked, but I can’t help it—1 must tell—see here what I found on the walk.” She opened and displayed a sheet of note paper bearing .Mr. Wallace’s monogram, on which, in his hand, were written these words: “Miss Steve, Pauline Steve, marry me, please Miss.” Miss Steve was absent that day and so there was no chance to go to her, but all prepared to make life miserable for Wallace the rest of the term. Lang-don told what he knew about the matter and it is needless to say that the circumstances he related only made them the more impatient to find Wallace. They did not have a chance to speak with him before class, but several were with him in the logic class the first period. Wallace was called to put upon the board the four “figures” by which propositions are tested. This he did readily, although there had been much grumbling among the students because of the difficulty of memorizing them. As soon as the class was dismissed the ring-leaders among the girls went to Wallace, and bv way of beginning the conversation asked him how lie succeeded in memorizing the figures. “O,” was his reply, “I hit upon a sentence with words beginning with the letters of the figures: you know you need only remember the letters M. S. P. S. M. M. P. M. I took liberties with Miss Steve’s name in order to remember the letters, lint I was determined to master those figures if such a thing was possible.” “Yes,” said one, “we found your sentence.” “Did you?” said Wallace. “I loaned the paper to one of the fellows; 1 suppose he dropped it. Anyway, it is lucky for me that my room-mate had those Annual pictures at the room, otherwise I would have failed when asked by the doctor this morning to place those “figures’ on the lioard.” The girls had to give it up. 170 A TRAGEDY IN OUR MIDST There was once a graduating class at D. U. which thought that it could celebrate Arbor Day better than the Next One. So its crafty members looked up the date on the calendar and resolved to have a joyous jubilee. And when the time came around they beguiled the innocent great man of the citv out to address them and sjx ke much about the quiet, shady halls of their Alma Mater, although all the time the western sun made the bald heads of the faculty wish for protecting sombreros. So they entrenched the arborial growth and surrounded it with a colossal monolith of red sandstone; and the innocent great man likened them to their Acer Sacchari-num; told them how its joyous green resembled their verdant hue; how its growth represented their abnormal mental development; how its maple sugar stood for their transcendent sweetness, and many other glowing and generous tributes did the innocent great man shower upon their greatness and their glory. But the gods were entirely next to the guileful machinations of the crafty graduates, and they sent a withering blight upon the tree so that it grew not; but its verdant green was transformed into a dreary yellow; its bluff at abnormal growth was shown to Ik only queen high; its maple sugar turned out to be not even of the beet variety; and its colossal monolith of red sandstone was cracked like a first year Prep beneath the prof’s rebuke. So all the bluffs of the guileful Seniors were called. And the arborial monument still stands an omen, an oracle, a symbol of devastation and decay. THE WORLD The world is a Titan’s city. And over its checkered sphere Move puppets and puppet armies, And faint on the Titan’s ear Falls the shout of the wolf that conquers And the sob of the last defeat, Falls the moan of the beast that hungers And the sigh o’er the winding sheet. The wind shrieks over the city As the fighters shriek below; And the end and aim of the struggle The fighters will never know. 17J KYNEWISBOK CORRESPONDENCE COLUMN Dear Kvnewisbok: 1 want to tell von about making speeches in chapel. The first time I did it I was afraid, hut I am getting to know how by this time, and so I want to tell you how to do it. The first requisite is a good joke to begin with, so as to make ( eop]e laugh. Then when you have a good start you say what you wish, and then make another joke to close with. Thus you get a lot of applause and make the faculty think you are popular. Yours truly, C. E. GRIFFIN. Dear Kvnewisbok : I have been wanting for a long time to tell you how easy it is to get credits here. I think the faculty arc very good about it. except a few. Dr. I lyde is particularly kind to me. He gave me credit in Greek because I used the Greek Testament for family worship. -Miss Miller, too, is good to me. She lets me hand in my sermons in composition class. I am trying to get credits from Dr. Le Rossignol for reading his book because I think that any one who would do that would deserve credit. Yours lovingly, LOUIS M. POTASHINSKY.

I like it very much, all except Rlackstone and those other old fellows. Yours affectionately. FRED WILLIAM STOVER. Dear Kynewisbok: I am pleased to note that you intend giving Oratory the place it deserves in your book. I should like to ask it as a favor, however, that whenever you print my picture you print the one I had taken this year. Everybody saw the one 1 had taken last year in last year’s Annual. Hoping that my request will be granted. 1 remain. Sincerely yours, LURING I). RECKWITH.

THE WOULD-BE BOSS AND ELUSIVE POPULARITY A brewery in a western town once hired an athletic instructor for the w advantage of its employes. And the athletic instructor desired to be popular. So when foot-ball season came around he took a hand in the game and got the brewery to organize a team. But the team was wiped tip by all the other breweries and the players blamed it all on the athletic instructor, because he didn’t know how to play foot-ball. Now, another brewery in a western town also had an athletic instructor who desired to be popular. But he benefited by the misfortunes of others, as wise men will, and when the festive base-ball season approached he dodged the paramount issue and organized a class in water jx Io. Therefore, the brewery employes played base-ball without him, and when they were defeated they blamed it on him for not helping them, and so he also missed ] opularity. This teaches us to aim high and not count our chickens l eforc they are hatched. II. THE OLD AND THE NEW REGIMES A Freshman class once wished to abide by tradition. So they got out one dark September evening and planted their flag on the top of the University Hag pole. But alas! With the first rays of morning came Nemesis, and also the faculty, and the Freshmen were given a vacation and many of them were flunked in Algebra, and they were treated badly all around. And there was another Freshman class that wanted to do the bidding of the authorities. Therefore, in the early afternoon, before the shades of dusk descended, they essayed to clear a space among the cacti and 4he Russian thistles and plant therein their flag on a patent flag-jxde of their own make. But the Sophomores swept down upon them like an avenging storm, before they were ready, and captured their pennant, and they, with their patent flag-pole, came also to grief. By this fable we are taught that you must always be good when people are looking, and that if you arc good you will be lonesome. in. THE POLITICIAN AND THE ORATORICAL ELECTIONS There was once a politician from the Powers that Pray, who used to go round before oratorical elections and collect votes. And he chanced upon a guileless Freshman who was not on the inside track. So the politician lent him two bits and sent him up to pay his dues and told him how to vote. 176 But it chanced that as the guileless Freshman went in to vote, a politician from the Powers that Rule drew near to him with a glad hand and a sunny smile and bore him off to a front seat and set him down between two more of the Select. So they allured and charmed him till he quite forgot his former friend and his previous instructions. From this we learn that the first half's the best half, ami a bad beginning has a good ending. IV. THE EAGER TROUT AND THE WARY SUCKER Once there was a Freshman who had an ambition to wear jewelry on his vest. So he marked out the points of the compass from which the soft, sweet zephyrs ought to blow, and put fresh graphite on his efforts to show his bright side to the Powers that Rule. But the siren sounds came not. and he gave his hand to the rank outsiders. And there was another Freshman who also had ambitions. But he was wary and would not rise at a black gnat in the twilight. So when murmurs of the tempting voice came his way, lie gave a sunless smile and said he didn't care just then. So the tempting voice passed on and he. too, was lost in the oblivion of the outcasts. From this we learn that faint heart never won a fraternity ami that slow and steady wins the race. r r u TYPOGRAPHICAL ERROR The education of the masses. The education of them asses.

Among them were a Miller, a Taylor, a Hunter, a Mason, a Smith and many other tradesmen. They journeyed along till they came to a stream, on the hank of which there was a Kricckhalts.

It was now high noon and time for luncheon. The Hunter had succeeded in killing a W olff and a large Martin. There was no cook in the party, but after a thorough search two good Stuarts were found. The game on hand was pronounced unsuitable, but these gentlemen prepared a delicious Pot-a-shinsky, which was eaten with great relish. After luncheon a Short way round the hill was found, and all proceeded on their way. After traveling some distance it was found that one of the young ladies had lost her Doll, while another had forgotten her new lion nett, but there was no time to go back.

Front the Seniors who sit on the furthermost border To the Preps at the back, who are doughty if small. The march out of chapel! The march out of chapel! I like it—well, sometimes, most better than prayers. For then you can talk—it’s so hard to keep silence— You even may giggle—and nobody cares. The Seniors lead out our imposing procession: The lines meet and double on reaching the aisle, And we like—I am making a candid confession— To meet the right one in the opposite file. It’s only a moment—the music’s entrancin’! It races along with a whirl and a roar. ()f course, as it’s chapel, we don’t feel like dancin’— Hut we would if it lasted just one minute more. The march out of chapel! The march out of chapel! W hen as old folks our lost college days we recall No scene can be first in that bright panorama But that march from our chapel seats into the hall. The Seniors are gav in the festive September. Though a little too stiff for the interests of fun; In the spring they are solemn, for then they remember. Perhaps with regret, that the game’s nearly done. 179 I have no doubt it does make ’em feel a bit sadder. As they walk clown the j ath so oft trodden In-fore. To think that they're reaching the top of the ladder. That soon they will march out of chafxd no more.

ALUMNUS The following was found in the annals of the Tokio Medical Society, in the year of our Lord 1920. Since the leading person, Mr. J---------- M--------- is an alumnus of this school and since the attending physician, eminent as an alienist and neurologist is an alumnus of the same school, it seemed very proper that this remarkable case, so valuable as a contribution to science, be entered in some of the records of this institution. Moreover, since some of the incidents mentioned took place about 1900-1902, it was tliotight eminently proper that this present volume lx made to contain the following account. If it occur to any to ask how this highly interesting narrative was secured, we lx forehand make the request that they check this curiosity and accept the word of the writer that Mr. J------- M-------- is now a very pleasant gentleman, clothed in his right mind and that he allowed these statements to Ik recorded hy the Tokio Medical Society out of pure regard for the advancement of science. The writer was in those parts and by mere chance read this account. Afterward he met Mr. J-----------M--------- and ascertained that the society's report was true in every detail. The narrative, which was given in the words of Mr. J------------ M-------- himself, was prefaced with the explanation that he was riding in a sedan chair when two of the carriers were killed by lightning; the others tied, and the chair, with its occupant, fell over an embankment. Mr. J------------- M------- became entirely unconscious and. naturally enough, his head was in a somewhat traumatic condition. He was found in a short time, fell into the hands of the most excellent physician who rcjxwts the case, while he himself gives the details from the moment of the loss of consciousness. lie says; “J heard a sound; I rolled over; I thought of all I had heard alxntt sudden death; I thought of inv life; darkness fell; 1 knew no more. “Rut the time came when 1 ojx?ncd my eves ami saw again. At that time 1 did not know that my j� ast life had an existence. I was simply conscious.

I continued in this state for what 1 have been told was a number of minutes, and then fell asleep. During this sleep I had dreams. 1 his was true of all sleep I had during those days. ( hu or two examples will suffice to indii-ate the character of the dreams. 182 “I thought it was morning and the breakfast bell rang. 1 was in great distress. I struggled to awake, but could not do so. The feeling was horrible. It was like a nightmare. The thought uppermost in my mind was 7:10 car, 7:10 car. At last I became conscious of giving up this struggle, and then a feeling of great calmness came over me. It was most perfect repose. ‘Wings of air’ is too tame to be of any use in describing the comfort 1 felt. I remember studying the situation with a view to knowing the cause of it in order to he able to reproduce it at will, and my thoughts seemed to Hit from one to another of my afternoon classes in the old college and then to the debating club to which I belonged, while I was there. The face of now one, now another, in the Fagiish classes would appear before niv eves, and then the picture of a mathematical class would appear. When I thought of the debating club I found also the thought of duration mingled with the rest, and it pleased me to think that all existence henceforth would be thus. I cannot account for this in any way better than by supposing that there was a double memory behind it, that of drowsy meetings and the feeling that this comatose state of the club was to last year after year. Once I caught a glimpse of the Annual Board and the Annual supporters in my dream, and it made me drowsier than before. '. t last I awoke; but before this I had noticed a change in my dream. I now saw an affair familiarly known as a ‘class scrap arising before my eyes. 1 could see the Sophomores arranged on one side and some of the freshest looking Freshmen on the other side. 1 think I could place the Sophomores as the class afterward known as 05. The ranks surged, the ground was all furrowed with their foot-prints, and then I awoke to find a hurricane raging out of doors. The doctor afterward discoursed learnedly to me about the effects of external stimuli in producing dreams, and also pointed out the effect of the vividness of past mental impressions. “After awakening I was in the state that we may speak of as Self Xo. 2 until someone brought the evening paper and began to read an account of a great battle going on in a distant part of the world. I had a momentary dizziness and caught a glimpse of banners flying, bearing inscriptions in letters like those I learned years ago in Goodwin’s Greek Grammar; I heard the word ‘Barbarians and wondered if by some magic the conflicts of the early Greeks were before my eyes. I craned niv neck to see if I would not recognize Xenophon. f heard ‘fraternity. and wondered if the bloody scenes of the French Revolution were being enacted, but I soon remembered that these I terms have a variety of meanings, and 1 now understand that this was simply a reflex of the annual ebullition of feeling in the University. I saw a Redskin, but soon I recognized the face of an old schoolmate. He was simply a Freshman being initiated. I then felt safer and thought best to regard him as a fellow mortal in need of pity for what seemed to be missing in his equipment. “The dizziness did not last long, and now again as Self Xo. 2. I heard the reader speak of a great election somewhere and then immediately of a balloon ascension, followed by a fearful fall: then of litigation and much trouble. With JS3 a snap I was Self No. i. wide awake, but musing on the j ast. and I could sec tlx oratorical election of 1902; then I thought of the hazers of that same year and of the resulting $2.30. Some of these memories were not pleasant, and I gradually glided back into Self No. 2, and for the life of me, on the border between the two states. I could not tell which was the oratorical election and which was not; which was balloon ascension and which was blanket ascension. The reading was still in progress, and what seemed an angry editor was laying down the law, then some sporting news was read, then society news, and during the last reading I fell asleep. Again dreams kept me busy. The | ast ami present were strangely mingled. The reading to which I had listened rang in my ears and immediately it changed to a reading front our college weekly. Then the matter appeared ‘yellow and I was more certain than ever that it was the kind that I used to read in the Clarion, lie fore I awoke I again had the English class and debating club somnia. “After waking 1 spent several days as Self No. 2. and one evening 1 accompanied a friend to a Buddhist temple; the priest was reading about love and self-annihilation, union with the heart of all with the mind of all, and so on. and there I fell asleep again. Again I was Self No. 1. and before mv mental vision ap] eared the form of a young preacher who was vainly trying to analyze the great passion of love, to absorb it or to be absorbed by it. I could not tell which. Shortly, a multitude of loved and loveless ones appeared, some Preps, some Freshmen and some as old as Seniors. Most of the latter seemed to be the loveless ones, while the former. I think, were those wounded for the fir t time; but some of the young indeed, had already many a wound. The sight did not please' me; it was fiainful. for I beheld myself among tliose k vcles ones ami felt myself still of that band. I struggled to awake, ami in doing so I saw the frantic strainings of tied-up Freshmen. I opened mv eves as Self No. 2 and began to tell my kind physician about my double self, for by this time it was beginning to give me worry and the two seemed to conflict. He said. ‘My friend, both those selves are you. Think of it so Be no more double. Let them lx- one. I believed him. ami now they are united. I often spend hours in musing on the strangeness of double life.” Although the subjects arc not all such as have a direct l caring on his strange experience, vet. since they are themes of interest to the readers of this work and since our friend is a man of such wide experience, the reader will lx pleased to know that Mr. J------------ M------- gave me bis promise to write a treatise on these topics; “In the Light of Double Personality.” “Mountains ami Molehills.: How they Differ” “Inverted Telescopes: How Not to Have True Vision.” “Asses: How Long Should Their Tether lie.” “The latest Formula for Preparation of the Balm of (iilead: Most Valuable for the Healing of Hearts that are Cracked and Minds that are Sore. “How to Read the Macrocosm in the Microcosm.” “Concerning the Advantages of Travel on the A vermis and the Elysium lurnpikes: A Retrospect Twenty Vears Past the Cross-roads.” 184 WITH APOLOGIES While the midnight bell is ringing, Ami my soul is steeped in woe; While the nightingale is singing.

Do you remember that tall, dark fellow, with the pompous air. Creighton, whom you met at the foot-ball banquet? Well, the “skate” had the undeserved good fortune to meet F.thel some time ago. called on her and then had the “gall” to call again. I didn’t think anything of it at first, hut when she gave that conceited fool her date for the Glee Club concerts, full four weeks ahead. I got mad—told her so—and asked for “whys.” At first she laughed at me. made faces, tried to parry, and teased me. I was excited, may be said some things 1 shouldn’t have; then she got excited, we had a few more words, then she pertly informed me that 1 had no business to interfere in her affairs, anyway—1 swore I never would again, and stanq ed off home.

(iuess I have a laugh coming now. Speaking of rich jokes and jolly-good-luck—listen! When I ran for the car last night, there was Ethel, just getting on. I tipped ’ coldly, helped her on and found her a seat. She was as gracious as could 1m. and was making room for me to sit clown, but I remarked that it was too crowded, and went way to the rear and stood up. As we neared the Park she and I were the only people left on the car. She motioned for me to come in.

Chad. I got the idea. I remembered having seen Creighton at the florist’s on the I2th—had heard him order roses, and say to send without a card—see?

Say, 1 guess Creighton has another guess coming! ••PENNY ANTE 189 THE DEMON SHRIEK (Chap. I.) It was a long drawn falsetto shriek that carried on a still night nearly half a mile. It was ghostly, blood-curdling and fiendish. It was like the call of the covote at ni ht in the mountains, which ends in a wild scream, swelling from a low note to a high, and hack again in mournful semitone, dying away at last with a demon-like gurgle. 'Pile little boys in the park used to hear it and shudder; the older j eople used to wish The oid Eurck Ciut Building sometimes for the millennium when students would no more make fools of themselves; the students who l oardcd at the east end of the park, used to rail at the Freshmen in general, and at Jones, the proprietor of the awful shriek, in particular. (Chap. II.) The alarm clock went off with its jarring, hearless tr-r-r-ing. Jones hopped off his hed, where he had been lying halt dressed, and grabbed the clock to keep it from waking up everybody in the house. W hen it had exhausted its efforts he laid it down, and striking a light, pulled on his l oots and sweater. Then he looked at the clock. The deuce! It was half past twelve, while he had been due at the building at twelve. Through some mistake the alarm must have l een set half an hour late; he would need to rush. So he hurried on his coat, cap and gloves—the nights were cold—and last of all. drew from his bureau a purple and white pennant, which he shoved under his sweater. Then blowing out the lamp, he went out of the house with as much $j eed and as little noise as possible. (Chap. 111.) To avoid passing under the arc light at the corner. Jones made a detour around the | ostofhce. between it and the old F.ureka Club building. Unfortunately for him, in the shadow of the former building, he stumbled on three of the Sophomores who. suspecting some move on the pan of the Freshmen, had made their rendezvous there. Jones tried to get away; he started off at a g x d face, but he was not a gixxl scrapper nor a strong runner. lie had been entrusted with the ] eunaut because of having been a Prep at 13. l and of knowing the Park 190 pretty well—and his efforts were of no use. But Jones kept his head. He knew that there were twenty Freshmen not far away who were probably at that moment coming to look for him. So. wrenching himself free from his captors for an instant, he put forth all his efforts and shouted the demon shriek. Through the still night air it shrilled loud and weird; he put into it all his excitement and all his fear; its tones rose and fell, and rose and fell again—eerie, uncanny, fiendish. (Chap IV.) The Freshmen were not tar away. They came to look up their comrade and their pennant. The fight was sharp and was soon over. And the j cn-nant waved that night from the swaying Hag-pole of the University. (The Kamschatka Mastodon.) 191 A CHEMICAL GATHERING An entertainment was given last evening at the home of Miss “Sal Amoniac,” which was attended by several “elements.” Ethyl Alcohol.” Poly Sulphide, “Methyl Orange.” “Hydro John, Mrs. Iodoform,” her son and daughter. “Salt Peter” and “Silly Kate” were present. The young ladies prepared the supper which consisted of Liver of Sulphur” deliciously fried in “Butter of Antimony.” After the addition of “Milk of Lime” and “Sugar of Lead” the dish was pronounced delicious. 'Hie tables were beautifully decorated with “Flowers of Sulphur and “Blue Vitriol.” Shortly after supper Mr. “Burnt Alum” (a Scotch-lrish alloy) arrived, lie had just drunk several “quartz of “nitro-gin” and the “equilibrium” of the party for sometime was greatly disturbed. He had quite an “apatite,” and declared that he could eat a “Tig of Lead” or a “Boron any occasion. He had quite an “affinity” for Miss “Ethyl Alcohol.” Miss Ethyl is quite a flame. Everyone agreed that she was an “oxidizer.” Some of the ladies present wore a sour look, but these were neutralized by Mr. “Alum’s” “basic” remarks. Shortly after arrival, Mr. “Alum” got into a “flux” and had a “lluor spar,” which continued till a “copper” came in and “ironed” them. It was sometime before these gentlemen cooled down below their “kindling temperature” and became “homogeneous.” Shortly after the trouble Mr. “Alum” was pronounced badly hurt, and it was thought that it would be necessary to “barium.” Mr. “Alum has since been suffering from an attack of “plumbago, for which we would recommend a “steam bath.” “Black Jack rendered a nutnl cr of negro melodies.

The hour was late and the Ethics, which he was studying, would not read intelligibly. Although, then, the universal applicability of the purely descriptive standpoint to all departments of human knowledge is unquestionahe. we should still take it into consideration that the value of facts is also itself a fact and a fact that must not he overlooked when it is there to see.” What on earth or elsewhere did that mean? The Junior was only a 03. If he had been a wearer of the cap and gown lie might have stayed with his work. Hut being only a Junior, he gave it up. He shoved the book aside and let his head rest on his arms, folded on the desk. He was tired and the heat of the room—the heat that comes from a good fire on a cold night—made him sleepy. He fell into a sort of half doze, just enough awake to feel the pleasant warmth around, but yet so close to sleep as to be unconscious of anything else— the condition when pleasant memories of the past come trooping back adorned with a tinge of the dramatic and a glamor of romance. Then there came sleepy recollections of the famous Halloween of a year and a half ago, when the students’ love of devilment ' had threatened them with serious trouble. Again he joined in the cautious approach to the University and the gathering behind the I lift Building. Again he scrutinised anxiously every one who passed under the light on Columbine Street. Again he saw the lighted cars passing at intervals at the foot of the hill, empty most of them at that late hour; the moon over-head in the star-clustered skv: and the tall, white university building looming up across the campus. He remembered the restless hour they had passed while a few of the number tried all the doors and windows of the main building. Then finally the basement window that had yielded, the crowd dropping down into the blackness below, the stampede up the stairs until suddenly the full brightness of the chapel lights blinded the dilated pupils of his eyes. He chuckled at the thought of how Beckwith and Potashinsky had tied handkerchiefs over their faces and had thus concealed their identity. Then the two long hours of hard work until at last the chapel seats were piled up safely in the slough and the party broke up and went home to bed. With feelings of anticipation—not altogether unpleasant—they all came to recitations next morning and watched the wagons hauling in the seats. In a few days of waiting and speculation their expectations were fulfilled, when there was read the proscription in chapel and the demand for the entailed expenses, together with a threat of prosecution if the denunciation passed unheeded. The indignation meetings came then, meetings of long debates and wrath and angry expressions at which it was finally decided to pay the bill in spite of that injudicious and rankling threat. Still, it had been fun and worth all it cost. The Junior forced himself to wakefulness. I he hour was growing late. He gathered up his books, turned out his light and went to bed to sleep the sleep of the student who is at peace with himself and with the world. 193 198 INDEX Adelpbian Literary Society..........no Aeolian Quartette.................. 76 Aerial Quotidian News..............151 Affiliated Association of Hymn Hook Smashers ...................150 As Usual ..........................152 Athletic Association .............. 93 Athletics ......................... 59 Autographs ........................104 Base-hall ......................... 97 Basket-ball ....................... 99 Beck with at Exams.................148 Beta Theta Pi......................126 Books of the Year..................186 Chemical Gathering.
