ORMOND, McCosli Professor of Philosophy at Princeton. “There is no small college that has a Professor of Philosophy to equal Professor Urban. The students and friends of Ursinus College arc realizing the truth of this statement, and we, the class of 1903. cherish the highest respect for our esteemed Professor. We, therefore, dedicate this volume to him whom we honor and with whose life, character and work we daily come in contact. Professor Urban's early life was spent in Philadelphia. He was born March 27th. [873, and is the son of Rev. A. L. Urban, of Woodbury. X. J. He attended the public schools of the city, and afterwards spent four years at the William Penn Charter School. At this institution he served as Editor-in Chief of its magazine, was graduated with honors as valedictorian of his class, and received the George W. Childs Entrance Prize for Princeton. In September, 1890, lie entered Princeton University. His college days speak for themselves. Ever after his Freshman year he was known as a cultured man, though never regarded as a “polcr . We may judge his broadness of mind and his efficiency as a student by the honors he won. He was the successful contestant for the Sophomore Debate Prize, and was appointed Washington’s Birthday Orator in his Junior year. Ilis literary ability is shown by the fact that he icceived the Baird Prize for Poetry, and the position as an Kditor of the jVassatt I.H r ny .1fagazitn in his Senior year. His education was not confined to classical studies alone: for when he was graduated in 1895, he received his degree, magna aim I a ude, with special honors in philosophy, and was awarded the Chancellor Green Fellowship in Mental Science After graduation, Prof. Urban went to Germany. For a year he studied at the University of Jena. In the following summer he was married to Miss Elizabeth Newell Wakelin, of Philadelphia, a graduate of Smith College. After travelling in England, France, and Germany, during the same summer, lie entered the University of Leipsic. There he spent a year under the instruction of Professors Wilhelm Wundt and Max Heinze, and received his degree of Doctor of Philosophy with the distinction of stun nr a cum fa tide. The subject of his thesis, which has since l een favorably reviewed in foreign and American journals, was “A History of the Principle of Sufficient Reason,—Its Metaphysical and Logical Formulations. In the fall of ’97 he returned to Princeton as a Reader in Philosophy, and gave a course of lectures, extending through the year, to graduate students and Seniors. 8 it Iii 189S, after Dr. Raymond Dodge, Professor of Philosophy at I rsiiius, accepted a call from Wesleyan University. Prof. Urban was appointed as his successor. This position lie has since filled with marked ability. His scholarship, as well as his position as an educator, is more fully shown by his connection with educational circles and by his publications. He is an active member of the American Psychological Association, and of the American Philosophical Association. His contributions to the Psychological Review have been on the following subjects: “The Prospective Reference of Mind,” “The Psychology of Sufficient Reason, and “The Problem of a Logic of the Emotions and Affective Memory;” to the Philosophical Rcvinr. “The Relation of the Individual to the Social Value Series.” He is one of the Assistant Editors of the Dictionary of Philosophy and Psychology, edited by Professor J. Mark Baldwin, having special charge of the work in philology. To this work he has also con tributed one of the leading articles on the topic “Value''. Furthermore, Professor Urban has made contributions to the investigation of Affective Memory which have been recognized as important by Professor Ribot, of France, the pioneer in that field. He has now in press a continuation of this study, a monograph supplement to tlie Psychological Rcritu entitled. “The Consciousness of Value.” Thus Professor Urban’s work gives him more than a local reputation. Asa teacher there arc few subjects on which he does not have well-matured opinions, yet. hi keenness of insight into human nature makes him sympathetic and tolerant of other men's views “In his instruction, he is thorough, broad, and modern, using the best (redagogical principles. He urges independent work and research, and carefully guides the mind into proper channels to avoid false conclusions. Besides, the unconscious influence which radiates from him makes him a great favorite among his students. He is the student's friend, always willing to give aid, always open to private consultation, always able to give worthy counsel. But Professor Urban’s success as an educator is partly due to his character as a man. He is a Christian gentleman and an ideal college man. As such lie is not a recluse; he posesses the golden mean of true dignity and modesty, which, instead of repelling, attracts. With students and friends he shares the pleasures and joys on the athletic field, on the campus, and in social gatherings. On such occasions, his amiableness, his conversational ability and his delight in wit and humor draw many friends to him. Such is the record of a few of the facts of Professor’ Urban’s career ; better portrayed, however, in his daily life and work. It is a pleasant thought that his work has only begun. In the promising future that is before him the members of the class of 1903 wish him abundant success. 9 r URSINUS COLLEGE Founded February JO, 1869 PRESIDENTS Rkv. J. II. A. Bombkrgkr, I). D..LL.

THE events of another year in college life will soon he numbered among the past. Pleasure and action have made its hours seem short, and now we may look hack with gratification upon its many happy events. We are pleased to welcome the new members of the Faculty, who, in the short time they have been with us. have won the hearts of the students.' Doctor Mnrlin, of the University of Pennsylvania, was called to fill the place left vacant by our late beloved Professor, I )r. Mensch. I )r. Mnrlin manifests great interest in the work of his department and insists on thoroughness in all his work, as the Juniors, to their sorrow, discovered when the grades of the mid-year examinations were reported. Dr. Grimm, of the Johns Hopkins University, now occupies the position for a long time filled so ably by our efficient Professor, A Icicle Keichenbach. The way the boys are heard droning over French and German verbs is sufficient evidence that Dr. Grimm deserves the confidence and respect which the students have accorded him. Mr. Oimvake, who was graduated with the class of ’98, has again returned to his Alma Matrr, after having spent three years at Yale University. Those who had known Mr. Oniwake were especially glad to welcome him back, and as one of our own number he is a favorite among the students. He brings a good preparation and a persistent activity to the position he has been called to fill. We have had an unusually successful year in athletics. The time-honored feats of decorating the chapel with dummies and converting the class-rooms into stables have not consumed all surplus energy. Our friends who were here in the “good old clays” may not concede that last year witnessed our best year on the diamond, but surely, the season of 1901 was a grand success. “Chic” might well smile as one of those down drops twirled across the plate and the umpire called, “striker out.” At the end of the season when we had scored ten victories against three defeats, every member of the team merited the congratulations of the whole student body. Foot-ball, too, has had its brighter side. The men rallied around the coach, “Ed” Kelly, 1901, who had captained the team very successfully for two years. With the majority of the men on the 1900 team as a nucleus, and several new men, we began the year with bright prospects. Many obstacles, however, had to be over come ; the new men must be “hammered in” : the team must be filled with the spirit to fight to the end, regardless of defeat or apparent victory ; and, above all, the men must he made to feel the importance of team work. Two severe defeats and several sound “dressings” from the coach so impressed the team with the fatal 23 results of the “half way business'’ that the men woke up and gave us three signal victories. These important successes atoned for the poor showing in the beginning of the season, and prepared the team for a noble struggle with the Blue and White, on November 9. Much of the success of the season is due to the loyal support of students, alumni and friends. On the first morning that chapel services were held, the Freshmen announced their appearance by a rousing yell. Class spirit has done very little to disturb the quietness of college life but the Freshmen have made their influence felt in and about the college. An unusually large number of girls about the premises caused some alarm among the other sex. But the frequency of visits to Olevian seems to show that alarm has given way to endurance : endurance has led to pity : and. perhaps, pity is followed by that which poets alone can describe. After the foot-ball season, when the boys had feasted at the bountiful hand of some of our good college friends, everything came to a standstill in college life. Nothing occurred to break the monotony of the class-room or the study-hour. Hence the necessity for general improvement clubs. The “Red Rovers’’ in the Dog House were soon swallowed up by the Fast Wing “Alligators”. The Literary Societies came to the rescue. lien parties in the library, class suppers, “set outs” to the Faculty, athletic suppers, and numerous other social affairs have contributed to the general betterment of college social life. The memories of the year 1901-1902 will surely linger with us. and we trust that all may be able to look back upon the college year as both pleasant and profitable. 2-1 Senior Class History V .4 .4 FOR tht last time the chronicler of the Class of 1902 resumes his task. It is with a feeling of mingled pleasure and pain that he performs this duty. The duty is pleasant because we now triumphantly stand at the goal which we have striven after so eagerly for a number of years ; it is tinged with sadness, because, having reached that goal, we are about to sever some of our dearest associations. The Fall of ’98 saw us enter college filled with hope and lofty aspirations. We were a small but sturdy class. It is not our purpose to say much of our participation in athletics and our successes in inter-class scrimmages. What has seemed of vast importance in the past is lost to us in the higher and nobler pursuits of the present. What is of significance now. may be, and. we hope, will lie. of but passing interest to us in the future, because it is thus wc measure progress. We have advanced, but our course lias not always been characterized by closest harmony and unanimity. We have felt the influence of factions, yet they have had their good effect. We parted ways only to meet again, and to be better friends than before. It showed us that the ties which bind 11s together are stronger and more enduring than those of partisanship. Other ties have been formed which shall live. We have been led on and directed in Wisdom’s ways by kind and willing instructors. Our weak attempts have been strengthened ; our misdirected efforts corrected, and our whole mental and moral being elevated to a higher plane of thought and action. We have been made men and women—not “half-men. in whom that Divine handwriting has never blazed forth ; but quivers dubiously amid meaner lights or smoulders, in dull pain, in darkness, under earthly vapors. We have been prepared for the stern realities of life. We have drunk of the cup of knowledge and go forth prepared to meet the obstacles which may beset our path. How deeply we have drunk, and how ably we are prepared, the Future, that stern interpreter of our lives, alone can tell. 26 1 J SENIOR POEM v v H E task that, unaccomplished, Seemed almost mountain high. To-day, when it is finished. Is minim to the eye; And now that the golden grains Have slipped down to the last, The empty glass is cherished For treasures of the past. I.ife, with a fuller meaning, Is coining into view. That we. with pulses leaping, May try our strength anew. What though the work be greater ircatcr our zeal shall be : There is no chance of failure Once set a brave soul free. So let us greet the future With “loyal hearts and true”, And find each one his mission, Ivach one his hope renew. Then forward to the conflict, To strive, to dare, to gain— And his the bravest nature That does not count the pain. 27 Class of 1902 „• „• MOTTO LABORE ET MONORE. COLORS RED ANO BLUE. FLOWER PANSY.

Henry 1-ong Matterne.ss Sl’.rawdei Millet, II K Junior History A CLASS historian is frequently censured, but whatever may be his failings, a lack of appreciation for the many great things which his class has accomplished cannot be attributed to him. It is a delicate matter to place a class before the public in a true light, but as the Junior year is generally considered the most pleasant year one spends in college, so the Junior history should be more agreeable than that of any other year. The history of the Senior class is usually a sad one, for it brings before us the time of parting, so soon to take place, while the Freshmen and Sophomores are too engrossed in their petty rivalries to appreciate any of the deeper pleasures which a Junior experiences. We have taken upon us the cloak and dignity of higher classmen, and as such we must do away with Freshman Ixnnbast and Sophomore superiority, and apply ourselves to facts and to a more dignified manner of presentation. Former historians have eulogi ed our prowess and valor. Another year has passed ; a new scribe wields the pen and a deeper and more conscientious spirit guides our steps. Fresh laurels have been won. We have striven for the supremacy in base-ball and we hold the banner by right of conquest, but let us refrain from proclaiming it. Deeper and truer motives regulate our lives. We follow unostentatiously the path of duty. Wc strive no longer for physical superiority but rather to acquire knowledge and experience. Though our class spirit lies inactive and seeks a well-deserved rest, 190 has always tried to do her duty, whether in the matter of athletics or regular college work, and our hopes are that in the future she is destined to “Push Forward , to perform greater works, and to accomplish more famous deeds than in the past. 33 Class of 1903 . ..st .

Billy is one of the few Juniors who lias not yet found time to raise whiskers. He received his preparation for college in Frsinus Academy. At present he stands at the head of his class in the college catalogue. He is one of the Phoenixville contingent at Ursimis. and, like all natives of that smoky city is labelled “handle with care”. He is a devout follower of Nimrod, and much of his vacation is spent in outdoor recreation. In the inter-class base-ball games lie wielded the bat with great effect, when it did not wield him. When not engaged in fleecing “Puck” at checkers, his favorite pastime is shaving. In politics lie passed the cross-roads while still in his cradle. Billy jxissesses a mature head for a lad of his age. and in his favorite studies he maintains an excellent scholarship. His major is Modern Languages, in which he will some day fill the chair at Ursinus. In the l inks of 1903 there is none more loyal and aggressive than Billy. Music and Shakespeare are his chief emotional luxuries. lie is a member of the Schaft Literary Society and famed within its halls for his forceful, vigorous methods of debate. Among the co-eds lie has lost much of his former reserve but still remains to be “flagged”. Billy comes from royal English ancestry, and for that reason is one of the American participants i:i the coining coronation. The blue blood in his veins is sec-n fre quently in the “call-downs” he administers to Poorman. Proverbially, as for all small packages, we can attest to the quality of this strenuous parcel. Law will be his probable pursuit after graduation. ; 5 Henry GraBkr Witli too inucli thinking to have common lh Ml ht ' lie looks serious and melancholy. Well, he is—to most persons. Hut he is also otherwise. In fact, his biographer has a big job. so he will begin some twenty years back when that most remarkable county of Lehigh gave birth to this long-faced chap. We knew nothing of him until he struck Royersford High School and Ursinus Academy and began to swoop in the crests of the honors Then we said, “Behold a youth who cuts a swathe in intellect.” He is fit to grapple with whole libraries. Once he was in love, but we will not introduce that here. He belongs to an old house and one of many components. Swiss and German blood flow in his veins. English gives to him a dogged perseverance, and the French element, a finish and delicacy to his personality. His greatest enjoyment seems to be chatting, and that with one person, and he is fortunate who gains his “confidence for a heart to heart talk”. Then he appears what he is—a rare gem, sparkling with all the genius of spirited youth. He once wrote an oration on “Nathaniel Hawthorne, or the Spirit of Solitude;” he will complete his biography when he writes on “Shelley, or the Spirit of Unrest and Endless Aspiration.” He reads Kuskin enthusiastically and pulls bugs apart with great zest He is preparing for medicine. Analytic in his mental calibre, keen in discovering subtle relationships, of a decidedly inquiring tendency—we expect to hear from him as a pioneer in the world of thought.

Reside the roar of the Tusoarora, amidst the wilds of the Switzerland of America, Kevin Francis Gutshall opened his dreamy, blue eyes, only to close them in his first nap- a nap which has never been finished, and from which Kevin wakes up only periodically to attend to the most urgent duties. He was born at Mount Pleasant. Perry County, just thirteen days before Christmas; if memory serves us correctly. Little is known of his family tree except that he is a descendant of Rip Van Winkle. His early life was spent behind the plow amongst the hills of his native county. After an attempt to enlighten the coming generation in a neighboring district school, he reached college by means of New Bloom field and I'rsinus Academies. He entered the Class of 1903 in the fall of ’99, just a few days late. Puck” is a good natured soul, full of original jokes and general good humor. He was once a frequent visitor to Olevian until he had several experiences which his sad heart has never revealed. His favorite pastime, when not asleep, is playing checkers or dominoes. He-is an active worker in society and other college organizations and at present is absorbed in the arrangement of the 1902 foot ball schedule. His future career is an enigma, but will likely be spent in teaching. 37 CllAKI.lS C.ROVK HviNIS In fuel. In was too proud a man to lx- a vain one ’—Scott. This Grand Lama is master of all he surveys. At a single glance one can tell that lie comes from York County, and if there are any York County mistakes in this book, just chalk them up against the editor, rnfortunately for the State he was born in Maryland—just what part has not been determined, and perhaps this edition will call forth some old folk tales as to conjunction of strange stars on that memorable day, the 20th of September. 1879. Mr. Ilaincs (we must call him Mr. ) is a serious young man. There are two states to which he is subject : the serious and the meditative. Serious always, his meditation prepares for action ; action produces more food for meditation, and so the cycle is completed. When speaking of love he hesitates. He has never exactly measured girls from a standpoint of personal utility, but he admits their share in life. Just what this means we have been unable to determine. Our hero is a student of that great analyst of love, Ik Marvel. Ik describes love, but Mr. Haines says his own experiences are indescribable ; from this we hold that he has opened new fields in the divine passion. The technique of his life is something as follows: Was graduated from Eiclielberg Academy, and infused some learning into other youngsters : lineman on the football team; a reader of Browning, and an original investigator in the intricacies of woman. He will teach History and Political Science. 3 ■ Frank Hicxmricks Hobson • What a mail it is What a man it is ' A uiant among pigmies. — Dickens. In more ways than one tins young fellow is the son of his father. He was horn one day in that lazy month of August, 1S83, at the Hobson homestead, and the character of the month has stayed with him throughout the part of his life which he has managed to eke out. He never got very far from home unless he was carried, and, since his greatness dawned upon his protectors at an early date, he has remained for the most part in Collegeville. And so it was that we find him drinking what Collegeville Grammar School and Ursiuus Academy poured forth in the way of learning. This process has not been one of assimilation, but rather of accretion, so that at the age of eighteen we find a large outside product—in “Beefy ”. Hating and sleeping have contributed much to this satisfactory development. Before lie came to college he studied, wound up the gas machine, and carried out ashes. Gradually he has sloughed off this life until at present study stands supreme. We have mentioned his regard for precedent. Hence lie is a Schaff man. Reformed, Scotch-Irish, Republican, and hopes to achieve fame by marrying and going to Law. Supreme happiness has never visited him, for he confesses lie never thought any girl an angel. Vet he reads modern romance, and occasionally lives it. He has flirted, too. 11 is genius seems to lie in playing short-stop, and listening to the cheers from the grand stand. He often tells how his heart goes pit-a-pat. He wants us to insert that he is going to be a great man. lie is. 39 Wai.tbr Howard Mol i;so.M:«iHR ' I.ofty ii 1 som totlu-'.ii that lovc-il him not, Kill to those that viii ht him sweet as summer. —Shakespeare Walter’s preparation for college embraces a range almost too wide to enumerate. He reached Ursinus via his mother's apron-string, Stroudsburg High School, East Stroudsburg Normal School. Centennary Collegiate Institute, Hackettstown, N. J.. etc., etc. The first course of this preparation was imparted to him amid the bleak hills and howling coyotes of Kansas. The last stage of his pilgrimage, before entering college, was l'hoenixville. Walter is ail associate-editor of the (.'allege' Hulletin, and takes a keen interest in the aesthetic side of college life. His work as end and quarterback on the foot-ball team, and at second base on the diamond, has earned its well-merited recognition. In his college work he has always shown clearness and grasp of thought and a power of pithy analysis, but, at intervals, lacks the continuity and application necessary to give him his proper class ranking. He possesses an emotional nature which gives him a marked dramatic ability. Much of his work in college breathes of an originality rare among college students. To many of his fellow-students his general mainlicn may, at times, seem eccentric and inexplicable, but only because externals are permitted to obscure that which in any person may be read only in terms of self. An ardent admirer of the fair sex. his chief delight is in social evenings. Solomon is his favorite author and raising whiskers and writing poetry are his main forms of recreation. He is a keen observer of human nature and his future will be devoted to teaching. 40 Malcolm Pkter Lakos That 1 toy'll kv to in: : minister, lie can t work —Iiachfiler. Malcolm Peter Laros was born in Lehigh County but has resided in College-ville for the greater part of his busy career. His is a face that is well known alxnit the college. Early in youth he entered I'rsinus Academy, and from thence coasted along until he attained a velocity which bids fair to carry him through college, unless checked by some external force. He seldom misses a recitation, except he be absent. Among the Junior Biologs be is, limvoachief demonstrator, and has issued in pamphlet form his recent lecture upon the aromatic principles of the Xicotiana Tabacum. Outdoor life appeals to him far more than the class-room.

How low was the bow which he graciously made on this memorable occasion is not distinctly remembered. But, we have heard tell, that in all the country roundabout Newside, Lehigh County, a prettier baby-boy than he had not been seen for many a year. Long before he learned fully how to hoe corn and to cat sauer kraut, the bewitching eyes of many a lair damsel had completely entranced him. Good, old Pennsylvania German blood courses through his veins and, with a heart as big as the prize pumpkin at the Allentown Pair last fall, Peters is altogether a jolly good fellow,—except when he has the blues. Indeed, his college course has consisted of great rejoicings on the mountain top- -when he would write verse and shout—followed by long, bitter lamentations in the valley when he would give up the ghost and dye—his handkerchief with tears. It's a shame, a monstrous shame, with what cruelty the girls have treated you, Albert ! Riding in an upsetless carriage furnishes him with the greatest of pleasure, outside of reciting “ Deacon Brown’s Donation”. He has taught school, canvassed for book, broom and shoe firms and acted as General Receiving Agent for blacking companies. From such a varied experience, we hope “The Reverend Albert Gideon Peters” will be able to procure sufficient striking illustrations with which to make his sermons long enough to impress upon the minds of his hearers the important truths of Christianity.

He is a much-quoted authority and has shown great power for original research work. His theories on alcoholic fermentation have thrown much light on some of the Zymogenic problems of biology.

The “scrub” and class teams were captained by him very successfully last spring. “Rappy” is orthodox in his religious beliefs, and a red-hot Republican. Though he is not prominent in love affairs about the institution, monthly boxes of ” goodies ” have told on him. He is a quiet, sensible, well-met companion. Of English descent, he is able to trace it is ancestry as far back as his grandfather. He is essentially a business man and mathematician. His laugh is a hearty one, running through the whole scale.

As long as lie is on the good side of the co-eds, and can assert his physical abilities, he is a happy boy. As gymnasium manager he takes special interest in the ladies’ classes. He has the fatal gift of beauty and his high aspirations will likely be attained unless led astray by this one great weakness. Although manager of the Bulletin he finds time to draw sketches for the Ruby and has just discovered his artistic ability. He says there is more in life than can be found in books. As a member of the Schaff Society he has won renown as an editor. All in all, Leroy is a first-rate, jolly fellow and has many warm friends in the college and THE TOWN.

Henry Beers Smith, one of Northampton County’s Nazarenes, came bouncing to T’rsinus. Why he came here i a mystery to him. Once having decided to go to college he stopjxd at the first place ho struck. Henry was born at Smith Gap (Kunkletowii Post Office). Kid red Township, Monroe County, Pennsylvania, I’nitcd States of America, January 12. 1881. Fearing the deteriorating effects of rustic surroundings, at an early age lie persuaded his parents to emigrate to Nazareth, Northampton County. His ancestors originally came from the Palatinate where they owned property on the Rhine ?). In his early Freshman days his youthful affection received a severe set-back, but Henry soon again became a favorite with the co-eds, and at public occasions he is always accomjnuiicd by one of Olevian’s fair dolls. He is a great patron of the college receptions and pays periodic visits to the Xwinglian Literary Society. Occasionally he has been known to remove his pipe from between his lips, and stroll about the college to view the class rooms. A jollier, rollicking, go xl-natured fellow never cut across the campus. His warm unselfish nature is ever open to the welfare of his ('lass. Nothing disturbs his serene equanimity. He has ever remained color-blind to all obstacles and, not unlike his own, the doors of his classmates are even as though they were not. He has shown an exceptional business ability in all that he has undertaken, and his college life will some day blend into a business career. 16 Marion ('.kki'ki i� -; Siwnc.i.kk ’(live im- s)ine music! music. moody food Of us that trade in love. -. Aaktsfieart After two scholastic years this one co-ed remains to grace the ranks of 1903 with woman s refining presence. Marion Gertrude, as she delights to be called, was born in Perry County, Pa., and comes from the stock “that built a nation”. She is a true “ Daughter of the Revolution ”, and her ancestor. George Ross, was one of the signers of the Declaration of IndcpendcnCC. In her class spirit, traces of this old patriotic fire have not been wanting. Marion has always been enthusiastic in class affairs and now serves as Prcsi dent of 1903. She is captain of the basket-ball team, and helps swell the Chaminade Chorus. As an apostle of a higher social life at Ursinus. the members of the SchafF Society have borne with patience the lengthy dissertations upon her favorite subject. However, she has not been content with words, for the boys of 1903 can attest to her hospitality. Her nature is emotional and the secrets of her life might reveal some very interesting romances. Through her music, however, can l e felt the expression of her deeper feelings. She is one of the few in our class who have musical ability, and will make it her life work. •17 Sometime Members ■ : Vinnik Mahki.

' 49 Sophomore History .4 „4 ..4 A VERY short time lias passed since we entered these classic halls. Wc are already nearing the second milestone in our journey. Although we were glad to lay aside the “robes of emerald hue” last June, yet it was with sonic hesitation that we took up our new responsibilities in the Fall. We realized that our new position brought with it new duties and we determined to perform them as we thought right and proper. Our plans were accordingly made and. notwithstanding taunts and challenges, we have carried them out and believe that all are the better for it. We tried to treat all as well as we knew how and we lxdieve that to this fact, as well as to other more refined influences, is due the general good feeling existing between the lower classmen. Since our first record appeared we have been busy with the active duties of college life. The various organizations of the college have been supjiorted by us. Of our record in the series of inter-class base-ball games last season, considering our number and experience, we have just reason to he proud. We are sorry to record the departure of several of the members of our class to other fields of labor. They are missed by us and our best wishes are with them in their work. We arc not able to introduce this brief survey with a long list of achievements, nor would we desire to do so if wc could ; but we feci that quietly and surely we have been progressing in our work. During our brief stay in these halls, we have endeavored to live up to our motto and, as we ascend each round of the ladder, we hope “ to live for the highest things”.

For a toast to our .Hum Malt ; Though husky the voice, which sings of the joys. The fleeting years make greater. One song, then, in praise of old college days, The days that return no more. And we'll pledge this glass to the dearest old class. The Class of 1904. 55 The Freshman Class MOTTO: LAISSEZ NOUS FAIRE CLASS FLOWER WHITE ROSF.

After chapel, on the morning of the twentieth of September, we sent forth that civ, a challenge to the Sophomores who started up with pale face and pallid cheek, but then--- Seventeen remarkable specimens assembled in the History room the following day for organization. We arc fortunate in ha’ ing live co-eds in our number. Like many Freshman Classes, wetake great pleasure in annoying the Faculty and the Sophomores, and thus far we have kept things a ‘doing”. Wc have endeavored to induce the Sophomores to vie with 11s, hut they have refused to meet us in any kind ol encounter. We have striven above all things to be original in om pranks On October twelfth, some of our illustrious members appeared upon the foot-ball fit Id with broad-rimmed straw lints. Then, eleven weeks later, with the the ” Sophs ’ grinning down from an upper window, not daring to molest 11s, we had our photograph taken. A few minutes afterward the ” Sophs ” wished to have their picture taken. We, aiming to annoy them, threw bags of water at the unsuspecting class. Then the wrath of the timorous fellows was aroused. They came rushing up the steps pell-mell. We congratulated each other that our long-sought for rush was at hand, but they came, they saw, they talked,—they ran. Two months later one of the timid “Soph's ' began to raise side-whiskers. They grew longer and became more offensive to our good taste, so we kindly shaved them off. We are not only a class of daring boys and girls, but we are also one of athletes. Our class includes five members of the regular loot-ball team and several of the reserves. In base-hall. too, our class is strong. Among otheis it contains the college battery. With this array wc arc willing to meet any other class on the athletic field. Our intellectual abilities are so well known that it is not necessary to dwell upon them. These facts, together with the class' indomitable spirit, place it in the front rank of Freshman Classes. 61 FRESHMAN DAYS , ..St . WHAT joy is this, that holds its sway? ’Ti a merry play, all seeming gay With sports, and mirth, and listless hliss. Tempered with much that is a Miss. Peep iti fields f art and learning, Freshman 'tis true most strongly yearning. • '.rips his ('.com., in silent mourning. Crams his head in useless adorning, in moleskin pads, smooth and tough With push, and snap, and plunges rough. Upon the gridiron up and down, The Freshmen pound, to make more ground. In twilight's bright fold, bathed in rich gold. Speeding swiftly thro’ breeze most cold, No thought is ours, save pleasures thrill. As merry skaters we brave the chill. And then conies Spring, and joyful May, And we welcome glad, the lengthening day ; On the base-ball field with many a fall. We hurl the modern cannon-ball. When eve with gliding, phantoniy sheath Has thrown its pall o’er mount and reed— Hark ! in midnight’s hue sombre and dark. Rings out the call for merry lark. Then on swift wing thro’ mist it speeds Flinging the notes of our triumphant deeds. In revelry we steep, ’tis meet This clink and clank, and joyous prank. Kver and oft this tale is told In song and story the theme grows old ; Vet onward, on fleeting wing of Time, The strains are born in waves sublime. Till finally in cadence sweet, Our song in majesty complete Ascends, and the listening winds waft on The final notes of Freshman song. 62 Special Students . v « . In tin- catalogue ye go lot imrii.

I,einbaeh Trcxlcr Inter-Class Games „ , x TIIlv scries of inter-class base-ball panics for the championship of the college marked om of the most pleasant events of the Spring of 1901. As we look back over these games with their intense rivalry and withal general good will, we recall many happy incidents. Stoner, Keiter and “ Browny ” donned base-ball togs for the first time and ventured to do and die, if need Ik. , for the fair Freshman lassies who cheered them with many inspiring yells. “Browny” managed to keep at a safe distance from the ball and came dangerously near making a hit. Hoyt was early disabled in a terrific attempt to slide into first base. Captain Sando’s class spirit rose high and his good work saved the reputation of his team. The good showing of the Freshmen was due in a large degree to the effective work of the Junior battery, “Willie” Fisher and “Jakie” Lentz, who laid aside their Junior pride to assist the Freshics in their games with the Seniors and the Sophs. “ Willie’s” peculiar rubbing and twisting of the ball however, did not rattle his Senior and Soph opponents, for his little “dinky” curves were generally straightened out into two- and three-base hits “ Willie's ” fame as a pitcher passed away in these two contests and later when lie came on the diamond in the 1902-1903 game it was even more fully demonstrated that he was an easy mark. Perhaps the greatest surprise of the series was the manly action of 1902 to meet 1903 in a fair, open contest. A strong desire t prevent the S-niors from winning the championship spurred them on to play a game which, although one-sided, was made interesting by several brilliant plays. “Willie” and “Jakie”, the star battery, plajed both infield and outfield, while the remainder of the team found time to tpiarrel among themselves. Captain Bartholomew deserves mention for one remarkable and heretofore unknown play.—making a grand-stand stop, he tagged third-bag, threw up his hands in triumph and contended with the umpire that the runner was out. Henry distinguished himself at the hat, at least once, when he hit unavoidably) one of Roth’s swift liners and it almost rolled out of the diamond. Kern at shortstop was conspicuous as the Gibraltar of the Juniors. lie was truly the post of the team. Six innings were more than enough to give the Sophs a decided victory and to convince the Juniors that they couldn't play ball. We must have consideration for the feelings of the class who were Seniors in the Spring of 1901. They have gone and shall not l e forgotten. But. alas for them, their base-ball prowess went before they did. The story of their wondrous defeat in the 1901-1903 game is simply told. Seniors are proverbially stiff and individualistic. When these two cjualities swept over their aggregation, the young Sophomore blood rose to the opportunity- hut the Seniors rose higher, for in that memorable sixth inning they took the balloon and went up in the air in true idealistic fashion. When they came down and saw what the Sophs had been doing they resorted to Zeno and his stoical philosophy. They took the defeat good-naturedly, only their whiskers grew faster and their philos phv had a melancholy tinge unknown to them before. 114 .«W r 1903 Class Team Poormau Gutshall Haines, Mgr.

John Lentz Captain Foot-Hall Team 1901 John Lentz was a member of the foot-ball team during the four years of his college course. Serving as a substitute on the strong team of 1S9S lie was well fitted to fill the position of right tackle on the team of the following year. This position he has filled on each succeeding team. He was a good, aggressive player and the record of the 1901 foot-ball team speaks for his efliciency as a captain. John I,ong entered college in the Sophomore year with the class of 1902. His work on the gridiron has always been of the best. As a half back lie could be depended upon for good consistent gains. His work this season was especially creditable and the fine showing in the Franklin and Marshall game brought his record to a fitting close. 121 Players' Records Ursixis Reserves vs. Fisher, 02 F.

Sando 127 The Banquets to the Foot-Ball Team TINi foot-ball season of 1901 had a fitting climax in the banquets given to the team by Dr. K A. Krusen, and F. G. Hobson. Esq., two of the staunchest supporters of the team. The banquet given by I)r. and Mrs. Krusen occurred on November 26. when the team, the coach, the members of the college faculty and a few fiiends gathered at their home. An excellent menu was served and eloquence ran riot, the host introducing the speakers in a few. well-chosen words. The athletic glory of I'rsinus was told and retold, and her athletes praised in glowing and enthusiastic terms. Mr. Hobson s invitation to the team was for the evening of December 5. a night which will live in the memory of the pig-skin warrior. The players, the coach, the manager and Mr. Hohson seated themselves at the table. The idea predominant in the mind of the host was the ease of the players. In a neatly-turned speech In- requested the players to ’‘tackle hard—and such tackling was never Ik fore seen on any gridiron the boys playing the Roman ideally. Such were the banquets of November 26 and December 5. tit testimonials of the high appreciation held for the work done by the team. The good cheer, the jollity, even the bad speeches, will always be remembered, and, above all, the kindness and the spirit which prompted the banquets will ever live in the memory of the individual players and friends. However, in addition to the individual result, these banquets have had an effect which is destined to become a material factor in the success of the future. To illustrate our meaning wc must refer to the game of foot-ball itself. Of all the attributes which conduce to make a team successful, such as speed, weight, strength, science and spirit, the last is one of the most essential. Speed, weight and strength are personal properties of the player, science is received from the coach, whereas spirit has both an inherent and external source. Enthusiasm is contagious. The player catches it from the rooter, the sympathizer, the supporter: hence, whatever tends to create this spirit is to lx- fostered. It follows, as clearly as night the day, that inasmuch as a material expression of sympathy, of support, of appreciation, is a generator of enthusiasm, it is to be cherished and regarded as a potent factor in the success of the future-This, we think, has been the effect of the banquets given—a result for which not only the players, but all the friends of the institution stand indebted to Messrs. Krusen and Hobson. 12S NOT MADE WITH HANDS Oim TO UK SIN us . , FAIR Scat of Learning— hid among tlie hills. Increased in beauty with the ripening years.

Hast thou no thought of it?—or. knowing all Aye. feeling all its passion and its pain— Art thou set here that men may come and fall Reside thy crystal fount, and drink, and gain Deep strength and dear-eyed courage for the strife The earnest conflict, and the strenuous life?

Thy limpid stream still flowing on serene ! And, over these, thy purpose just as high With rugged power and perennial youth As when those champions in the years gone by, Inspired of thee, sought patiently for truth ; And, seeking, learned it day by day, until The heavens opened and they knew God's will H is will, at times unfolded without words To them who, listening from some leafy bower.

Augustus Wight Uombkrgkr. ’S2 3‘ Scientific Research and Teaching Robert Mearns Yekkks, '97, histrucioi in Comparative Psychology, Harvard I'niversity , AS a member of the class which gave birth to the Ritby , I appreciate and am grateful for this opportunity to address a few words to the Alumni and Students of I rsinus. As a physiologist 1 welcome the chance to call attention to certain aspects of the relation of “ original work ” to teaching. hirst among the functions of the college is the making of men ; second, the making of scholars. Training, not learning, is essential for success in any line of endeavor. Whatever is learned by the way will some time be of value, but it is a means, not the end. Ability to think and to act, to obey or to command, in short,control over one’s self, alone makes possible a well-balanced and happy life. That the college gives. Power gained through constant and faithful attention to the duties, privileges and opportunities of college life begets insight into life, sympathy with humanity in all its phases of satisfaction and desire. We need constantly to remember that the worthy aim is not to strive to know all that has been known, but to understand man in his relations to his fellows and to the events of the external world, and to grasp the deepest meaning and tendencies of historic developments. College education, if it is worth while, is so because it fits men lor life. The teacher, lawyer, engineer, merchant, hanker should, by reason of it, he able to appreciate and increase the worth of life. It is my privilege to write of educational aims and ideals from the point of view of one whose chief interest is in scientific research. The thoughts which I wish to offer to all who arc interested in the success of T’rsinus, concern the relation of original work to teaching. To what extent, if at all, should the college teacher he an investigator? Is he a better teacher for being an original worker? These are questions of present pedagogical importance. Above all the teacher must he enthusiastic and energetic ; his subject must appeal to him as something worthy of his best efforts, something which is not to be taught merely to impart a few facts, hut rather to give insight, training, inspiration, longing for higher attainment. To be efficient the teacher must Ik an original thinker. Whether he finds time for elaborate researches in his field, or is forced to devote what little time he can give to his own work to the perfecting of what has been done by others, to the working out of methods of teaching, or to studying the relations of his subject to the needs of his students, matters little— what is all important is that he have a living, burning interest in the advancement of human knowledge and, through it, of human happiness. In our small colleges the demands made upon teachers are so great as oft times to exclude the possibilty of much research. Yet. where there is a will there is a way, where the desire exists in strength of purpose and in character, the influence of the teacher tells. Although he may not be able to add much to the material of his subject, his enthusiasm inspires his students and leads them beyond the too often irksome routine of study into the fascinating ways of original search for truth. For the crude facts of any subject need to be colored and animated by being brought into relation to life, and it is the teacher who can make his students feel most vividly that back of the individual and isolated facts of a subject are historic processes, tendencies and natural developments, whose life is a blessing to the world and whose efforts are the making of his institution. Abundance of life, enthusiasm, courage and, most of all, intellectual honesty mark the successful teacher. Students must be led, not driven ; inspired, not bribed or coaxed. Only those men who are admirable as men, whose strength of character and whose attitude toward life makes them worthy of all praise, should be allowed as teachers within college walls. To-day our colleges need to look to the manliness of their teachers as well as to their insight and scholarship. Students should be made to feel that they are potentially good, strong, scholarly ; for nothing so increases self respect as the feeling that one is respected by those he admires. Enthusiasm is contagious, and the teacher who possesses it is a sure source of inspiration. In order to maintain freshness and interest one must be seeking the new ; hence, original workers are able to lead their students most successfully. There is satisfaction in seeking for truth in science, in art, in life, and the passion for appreciation and understanding is as strong and almost as worthy as the passion for righteousness. As yet America offers no great opportunities for lives devoted to research ; for the teacher is busy with teaching, the scientist is busy applying what few disco' cries he has made, or more often those that have been made across the seas, to the needs of daily life. Everywhere the search is for wealth or position, or for purely practical attainments. While in the past we needed resources for research, now that we have them, interest and desire to discover truth are feeble. The time is at hand, however, when a class of investigators may arise whose aim will be not only to seek the new, but, as well, to inspire students. There will be men who, by reason of their passionate longing to know all that is knowable and to see life clearly and whole, are fitted to be the guardians and leaders of youth. Even now our American Universities are making possibie the existence of this t pe of man. They require relatively little teaching and allow much time to the soholai for original work outside of the class room. Our smaller institutions may follow in the same path by encouraging and giving preference to those teachers who have the will and the longing to seek for truth and who inspire the same longing in their students. In many ways the •33 small college has the advantage over the larger institution. In it the strong teacher can be a personal power in the life of every student. His sphere is smaller than in the great university, but his influence may be proportionately deeper. Ursinus possesses the equipment for training men and scholars. Those who guard her interests should be alive to the responsibility which rests upon them and proud of their trust. University life and training may give greater breadth of view, deeper insight, wider sympathy, higher scholarship and a truer appreciation of men. but, in general, it can not better fit men for the attainment of the best in life than can Ursinus. Those who are faithful to their Ursinus duties will find themselves able to lead or to follow, to take or to give, with the best of men-Fullest of promise, however, are those who leave the college with an oppressive sense of ignorance and narrowness, yet, with faith in their ability to be men and to do great and worthy things. i34 Value of a College Education to the Business Man Chaki.ks I . Mi ktha, 86 %« v THE practical value of a collegiate education in its bearing upon a commercial career is not so apparent as when applied to any of the learned professions-The object of this article is to consider the reflex character of a college career upon the condition and circumstances incidental to trade. While it must be conceded that success in the commercial world does not depend solely and entirely upon an antecedent collegiate training, yet that it imparts advantages that are great aids to success is plainly apparent. That the pedantry of schools may be obnoxious to many with whom the active business man may come in contact is true, but a wise use of valuable knowledge is an attraction to the most illiterate. A college education is a valuable aid in forming attractive and profitable associations in the social world. We say profitable because, no matter what a man’s calling may lx , he is always benefited by proper social relations. It might with truthfulness be affirmed that a college education is in some respects of more significance to a business man than to one in the learned professions. The career of the learned blacksmith startled the literary world while a learned professor simply fills a common place. Let it he known that a street boot-black is a classical scholar, and he will receive, not only patronage, but a deference not accorded the orthodox street “gamin”. A knowledge of astronomy unobstrusively shown by a very young man at an evening entertainment so favorably impressed a wealthy merchant that he gave the bright exponent of the science a profitable position in his store. George Stephenson was worthily accounted the greatest mechanical genius of his age, yet it was a source of regret and annoyance that he could not put into sensible language the thoughts that thrilled his soul. What mental relaxation from the career of trade is accorded one who, after the business activities of the day arc over, can live in those higher realms of thought that strengthen him for the duties of the morrow. A college education is i35 A a good investment for this refreshment alone. Then, too, this proper higher training imparts a dignity of manner at once indicative of the advantages he has gained, and the world sees and appreciates it. We feel justified in this broad assertion that a college education is never wasted, no matter what the subsequent career of the student may be. Learning engenders respect, regardless of the conditions under which it exists, and that respect must be a source of profit whether it be to the maker of bricks or to the mender of shoes Respect Ixfgets patronage, and patronage is what every business man wants and costs so much to obtain. All that is required to make a desire for a college education as universal as taxes is an affirmance of the fact that it is profitable in every condition of life. The cx collegian may take upon himself the isolation of the hermit, yet from every leaf and flower, by knowledge gained, proceeds for him a pleasant language. The solid earth itself is full of information, from . Uma fatcr won, and when night throws her sable mantle over the earth, each star will play its part on the sky-staged drama for his profit and delight. 36 Tendencies in Modern Education Jamks H. T KUBa, ’88, Bryn Mawr College ■ A CELEBRATED writer has said that the art of writing books consists in knowing what to leave out. If this remark is true of books, how much truer must it be of compositions limited to a few pages. Let us then try and omit wisely. The chief characteristics of modern education could best be stated, in the following two propositions: Its aim is iioie controlled more immediately than ever by the practical needs of life: its methods are in closer agieement with the laws of growth. While the changes which have taken place under the influence of the first of these guiding principles may not be all in the nature of an advance, those falling under the second would of necessity be consistent with real progress. Let us consider rapidly some of tlie most important of these changes, beginning with those which fall chiefly under the first head. We say chiefly. because there exists no a priori reason why a modifi cation could not be prompted at once by the two tendencies indicated ; as a matter of fact this has often been the case. The old education may be said to have been almost exclusively for general culture. In a community like ours, general culture without some particular talents developed to a high efficiency, is an unmarketable commodity. There is, therefore, little demand for it. Public opinion requires, and almost exacts, that education should not only complete, enlarge and beautify, but should also place at the disposal of the individual some particular knowledge or skill which may become the means of his future success in the calling he is to choose for his own. Our higher schools arc thus not primarily called Upon to do what Montaigne and Locke wanted—men of finished manners and sound judgment, . e., gentlemen in the best sense of the word.—but lawyers, physicians, ministers, engineers, electricians, business men—yes, even business men ; or else, what is the significance of the earnest discussions going on in certain periodicals over the the mooted point of the value of a college education to a future business man ? This powerful tendency accounts for a large part of the “ new ” in education. Is it not, for instance, under the guidance of the growing strenuousness of the i37 struggle for practical success that scientific and technical instruction are winning an increasingly large place by the side of the formal, classical, culture ? Greek and Latin are no more the exclusive synonyms of higher education. Russia is even now planning to remove entirely both these languages from the required university baggage of the students. We do not overlook the fact that the physical and psychological sciences have a wider claim to the predominance they seem destined to gain in our educational institutions, than their value as stepping stones to many profitable callings. They are one of the best, if not altogether the best, means of imparting that invaluable training which shows itself in correct observation, sound generalization and ability to deal efficiently with the “stuff” of life. They give moreover—and this is not the least of the higher functions of science teaching—the data upon which a “ welt anschaiuing”, with some chances of being more than a dream, may be built. The recent and far-reaching innovation of allowing the college student to choose, within wide limits, what studies he shall pursue (elective system), is in part, also due to the same influence. Let the young man be educated according to bis needs, let him specialize early in the line along which he is to make his career, says the supporter of the elective system. Here must also be placed the most important of the recent innovations in the methods of teaching—the experimental, laboratory, method. It was stimulated, if not altogether brought into existence, by the compelling power of life which demands not merely theoretical but practical first-hand knowledge and ability in manipulation. vSo much for the transformations due chiefly to the needs of life. We have now to take account of the large group of more or less valuable improvements which have originated in a deeper knowledge of the conditions of mental growth. They are improvements which, in the nature of the case, would bear on the methods of teaching rather than on its substance. Here should again be mentioned the experimental method, which has the good fortune of being demanded both by practical needs and by pedagogy ; then the so-called “natural” methods of teaching the languages, the reforms introduced in historical and geographical instruction and, concerning the very young, the kindergarten methods. It will, no doubt, occur to the student of the kindergarten, that every one of these changes may be looked upon as the result of the application of the kindergarten principles to older pupils This means simply that Kroebel discovered or, rather, put into practical use for the little child, principles of education which are universally valid. We speak advisedly. What are some of the basal ideas of the i3« Froebelian reform ? (i) Freedom: let the child live naturally while at school: let him preserve, as far as possible, the freedom of his movement and his mental spontaneity. (2) Give him concrete objects upon which to exercise his senses and his judgment, instead of l)ooks in which to read about the feelings and ideas of others. (3) Develop his interest, for no good work is possible without it. (4) Make use of all the possible means of growth and above all, of the active ones, such as manual work, speech and song. Apply these principles to higher education and you produce the changes we have mentioned, as well as many others not yet realized. What is, for instance, the lal)oratory method, but the application to the higher study of the sciences of the first and of the second of these principles? And what is the “ natural ’’ method, which in some form, at least, is slowly, but surely revolutionizing language teaching, but the application of the third and fourth ? The natural method consists essentially—we do not speak of the details—in an attempt to relieve the student, as far as may be, of the tedious burden of grammar and to lead him rapidly to a reading and also, for the modern languages, to a spoken knowledge of them. To reach this desirable end. full use is made of the several avenues through which a language enters the mind : eyes, ears and speech organs and not only of the eye, as the custom now passing away would have it. Special emphasis is placed on speech by the supporters of this method because they hold that language is primarily and essentially a spoken manifestation of thought and feeling and not a written one. In this connection should be mentioned the highly interesting endeavor of Prof. John Dewey, of Chicago University, to extend the principles already in use in the kindergarten to the primary and high school grades. If space permitted, we would like to draw the attention of the readers of the Ruby to the unfortunate fact that of all the departments of education none has remained so impervious to the guiding influences we have singled out as the theological seminary. A loss of power and of respect is the price the ministers of religion are paying for the unjustifiable conservatism of their schools. •39 Mr. Justice Kennedy tolls that law must be studied scientifically, in its principles and through its history : that its history opens vast and varied fields; that as an instrument of mental training, the science of the law is of higher value than history ; that the ideas which it inculcates are vital to the health of a free and intelligent society. “ To the lawyer, of all men, knowledge never comes amiss. Your business is with men. Acquire through a liberal education those wide sympathies and that larger knowledge which will opeu you a path to the heart and the understanding. It is an acquisition which like all good things will cost you some toil and some self-denial ; but it will prove your strength in work, your joy in business, and your solace in the hours of anxiety and sorrow.” To the well-trained lawyer the opportunities and possibilities of life are with out limit. The sphere in which they may be exercised is boundless. The needs of the present day arc continually stretching forth their hands, in an endeavor to command his counsel and direction. He is the most trusted of all men. lie is the least likely to abuse that trust. It is said in a preface to Forkscuc $ Reports that “ The grand division of law is into divine law and the law of nature ; so that the study of law in general is the business of men and angels. Angels as well as men may desire to look into both the one and the other, but they will never be able to fathom the depths of either.” It therefore becomes the prospective student of the law to make his mind a storehouse of knowledge, with such an acquaintance with the affairs of life as may be acquired only by association with men. He dare not be a recluse. A liberal education is one of the surest means of success. To this end says Lord Bacon, ‘' The general counsels, the plots, and marshalling of affairs, come best from those that are learned and Mr. Justice Holmes admonishes that ” No man has earned the right to intellectual ambition until he has learned to lay his course by a star which he has never seen, to dig by the divining rod for springs which he may never reach. In saying this I point to that which will make your study heroic.” An Ursinus Churchman in the South V JOSEPH L. MURPHY was born in Davidson County, North Carolina. His boyhood days were spent working on his father’s farm and in attending the public schools of his native county. He was prepared for college at Bethany Academy and at Catawba High School, now Catawba College. lie entered the Junior Class of Ursinus College in 1883 and was graduated with that Class in June, 1885. The condition of the Reformed Church in North Carolina at that time was discouraging. The pastors in the State were men grown old in the service and in the declining years of life. Many congregations were shepherdless. Twelve years had passed and only one young man from the Classis had given himself to the work of the ministry within the State. Those who entered this profession sought fields of labor elsewhere. Changes incident to the late Civil War were also making themselves felt. Agricultural communities were fast becoming manufacturing centres. The Old South with her institutions was passing, and a New South, with better institutions, was being established. The people, contented for a long time to remain in the country and cultivate the soil, were finding homes for themselves in the towns and cities. The Reformed Church, whose congregations were limited to the country, had to face a new question. It was to provide for the members moving into the towns. This condition of things confronted Mr. Murphy upon his graduation, and before completing his studies in the Seminary, be was challenged with an overture from the Classis and a call from the Lincoln charge to begin work in his native State. Sacrificing liis desire to graduate from the Seminary, he accepted the call to the pastorate of the Lincoln charge and entered upon his work in July, 1885. The work accomplished in the Classis of North Carolina since that time has attracted the attention of the entire Church and the progress made has been almost phenomenal. Other young men have been attracted to the ministry and to-day the •43 charges arc well supplied with pastors. Old church buildings have been remodeled, parsonages have been built in almost all the charges, new congregations have been organized, and commodious church buildings erected in many of the principal towns ; the membership has increased about seventy per centum, and the amount contributed to benevolent woik is nearly three times as great. The experience of the North Carolina pastor differs materially from that of the Ursinus Alumnus who has found himself called to shepherd a city congregation. There is much of the “circuit riding” element in the experience of the former. He is called to serve congregations located at a considerable distance from each other and with their membership much scattered. Mr. Murphy has enjoyed a rich and varied experience along this line. He has been in charge of some mission work for several years which carries him into the mountain districts of his State. The distance, some forty miles, must be made by private conveyance. This has afforded an opportunity to appreciate fully the work done by the pioneer ministers of our Church. In connection with his pastoral duties Mr. Murphy has found time to devote to the work of education. Two years, 1887-89 lie was acting Professor of Mental and Moral Science in Catawba College, Newton, N. C. l'or four years he was President of Claremont Female College, Hickory. X. C. He served two years as Chairman of the School Board of the Public Schools of Hickory, X. C., and at pres ent he is Chairman of the Board ol Trustees of Catawba College and a member of the Board of Trustees of Claremont College. In 1898 Mr. Murphy spent some time in Chicago studying the social and religious life of that great city and at the same time took the Summer Course at the Bible Institute. He has served his Church in various capacities At different times he has been elected President of the Classis and has been a frequent delegate to the District and General Synods. At present he is entering his twelfth year as pastor of the Hickory charge, and is the Editor of The Reformed Church Corinthian, the organ of the Reformed Church in North Carolina. I .

MENSCH’S life was bound up with Ursinus College as a student, as a professor and as a scientific investigator. As a student lie identified himself heartily with the life of the college. After having made his choice he entered the institution without reserve, accepting its limitation with cheerfulness and seeking in the companionship of congenial spirits the mental stimulation necessary to mental growth. His honest and open nature responded to the impact of the strong and good men to whom he recited, while the ideals of his guileless youth preserved him amid the temptations incident to college freedom. He gave his heart to his Alma Mater and to his college companions, and received in return confidence and friendship, the corner-stones on which the highest type of manhood rears its edifice. After a course of professional study, a dip into medical practice, a course of university training and several years’ experience as a teacher, he was fully persuaded that his life ought to be devoted to the work of a college professor and that his Alma Mater was best entitled to his life's fruitage. He returned to Ursinus with the eagerness and zest of conscious sonship, honoring the makers of the institution and determined to contribute his part toward making its development worthy of its parentage and to give it standing among the best colleges of the country. He neither bargained for his position nor gave his services in the spirit of quid ro quo. Hither he had come to do his best, not for himself, but for the college ; to live, to lal)or and to die for the institution whose cause he had espoused. His jealousy for the institution made him quick and outspoken against indifferent work on the part of colleague or student, suspicious of professor or aluuius who gave evidence that his heart was self-centered or failed in devotion to the institution to which his faith and service stood pledged and whose name lie bore. It was this spirit of devotion to the welfare and standing of the college that prompted him to the frcecst criticism of what he conceived to be wrong policies or unworthy men and made him a safe counselor, even upon questions that enlisted his personal prejudices. He loved the institution and would, therefore, guard it •47 against every foe, within or without; he believed in it and, therefore, labored to make it worthy of confidence and respect at home and abroad. Ilis contributions to the life of the college in its developing period may be summarized as, first, the full recognition of the modern scientific attitude ; second, the acceptance of the laboratory and lecture method of instruction ; third, the demonstration of the vital truth that loyalty to an institution is the highest principle of service and a prerequisite to usefulness in its employ. I)r. Men sell’s ideal of the college professor was of the highest order. He believed that every educated man was in duty bound to pursue his subject to its ultimate principles ; that only in research work would he find the real joy of knowledge and the inspiration for its steadfast pursuit; and that the power of the teacher to stimulate his students is directly proportioned to the exaltation of his own mind from first contact with facts and principles. In his pursuit of this ideal lie exhibited without alloy his kinship with the elect in the world of knowledge. At this point his life was most strenuous. To the realization of this ideal he devoted his time, his money and his health. His students met him day by day fresh from the fountain. They felt his touch as life-contact with knowledge. lie imparted to them method and inspiration ; and his life is bound to tell in their work. A voice from Harvard I’niversity, where one of his graduates has studied for four years, and one from Johns Hopkins, where another is in the first year of his graduate study, both bless him for his influence and for his ideals. It was this chaplet of honor, a steady stream of L'rsinus men engaged in advanced study and original work, that he sought most assiduously to place upon the brow of his Alma Main. Dr. Mensch has left behind him an imperishable record of devotion and achievements. The impress of his views and of his work are stamj ed indelibly upon Ursinus College, which will ever remember him with admiration and gratitude as an Alumnus, a Professor and a Scientist. Henry T.

From the time of the formal opening of the college, 1870, various sports and athletic diversions have received their share of attention ; but no responsible controlling body was recognized in athletics until the organization of the Athletic Association in 18S7. During the earliest years of our institution the attitude of the college authorities toward athletics was decidedly neutral, and more often repressive. As a consequence, the first attempt at organized athletic effort resolved itself into a slow, uncertain process with the brunt of the burden resting heavily, and almost exclusively, upon the student body. A few games were played in base-ball, from season to season, but according to no set schedule, and subject to no definite athletic regimen. A tennis club was organized in 18SX, and this, together with base-ball, furnished the main outlet for athletic activity until the appearance of foot-ball in the fall of 1893. That year witnessed the installation of a new President of Ursinus College, and a broader and more liberal policy began to characterize every department of the institution. Athletics, for the first time in the college’s history, received its proper share of recognition at the hands of the college authorities. BASE-BALL Prior to 1895, very few of the base-ball games were played with college teams. In that year athletics came under the combined control of the college authorities and of the student body, by the organization and institution of a responsible Athletic Committee—an executive department of the Athletic Association—consisting of five representatives : a member of the faculty ; one of the board of directors; a representative of the alumni, and two members of the student body. The present Athletic Committee consists of six members, according two representatives to the faculty. The new control was confronted by many difficulties, 'fhe funds necessary to support and conduct properly such a system were derived mainly from personal pledges of the students and faculty, and from voluntary contributions on the part of the alumni. A deficit at the close of each season was a common matter, and the task of giving the athletics of the college a firm basis proved to he no light one. The first season of base-ball scheduled under the present governing system was played in 1895 ; and four out of the seven games played were won. The season of «5i '96 was not so successful in point of the number of games won, although better games were played upon the home grounds than during the previous seasons. As early as 1894, a strong reserve team in base-ball appeared on the field and began to win a large number of its scheduled games. In 1897 the majority of the games for the first team were scheduled and played with colleges of recognized athletic standing. Although no signal victories characterized this season, the work on the diamond, as a whole, was more satisfactory than that of the preceding year. Many things helped to enhance the general athletic standard, and our base-ball relations with other colleges were gradually extended and strengthened. The season of ’98 was eminently satisfactory and helped much to give I'rsinus her proper ranking in the athletic world. Nine out of the fourteen contests were won, and our old rival, Franklin and Marshall, was defeated, together with such colleges as Rutgers and Dickinson. Much of this success, as well as that of the succeeding season, was due to the able pitching and management of Captain Laros, S. T., '99. The seasons of 1900 and 1901 reflected great credit upon both teams. An important feature in the successes of last season, 1901, was the excellent pitching of Townsend, 05 ; and with the auspicious opening of the present season, a bright outlook for the future of base-ball is ours. FOOT-BALL Foot-ball has in many ways—and not undeservedly—become the most popular sport among 11s. The first team at I'rsinus was organized in the Fall of 1893, with F. Steckel, '96, as captain. The seasons of ’93 and ’94 included a few games with other colleges, and witnessed some overwhelming defeats ; but the game was being learned and valuable experience gained, which laid the foundation for future successes. In 1895. the first professional coach, Cres-singer, University of Pennsylvania, was engaged, and, under the direction of the recently-organized Athletic Committee, a marked advance was made in foot-ball. A majority of deteats was again experienced, but a decided strengthening was noticeable over the preceding seasons. As captain of the team in 1894, and later as a member of the Athletic Committee, K. V. Lentz, ’95, contributed very materially to the upbuilding and perfecting of a stable athletic goverment. Much of the subsequent success of foot-ball was due to his personal efforts and interests,—to such an extent that he has been accorded the title of “ Father of Foot-ball at Ursinus”. Owing to a lack of financial support the following season, 1896, witnessed little advance ; and in the face of the many disheartening circumstances, the gallant players and their captain, Shelly, 97, are 152 s n oos to be commended. The season of ’97 soon showed brighter prospects. Through the untiring efforts of Captain Waltmau, ’99, a strong team was brought upon the field. A11 enthusiasm, hitherto unknown, began to manifest itself among faculty and students. The services of Dr. Off, University of Pennsylvania, were secured as coach, and through his personal work and influence the athletic morale of the entire team was raised and strengthened. The unfavorable scores of former seasons were largely reduced. New life and vigor were infused into the athletic spirit of the institution, and foot ball at Ursinus received “ that lease of life which has brought it to its present high level.'' The results were seen in the following season, 1898, which was, in many ways, the most successful Ursinus has known in foot-ball. Seven out of nine games were won, one tied, and one lost. Henceforth Ursinus was received on an equal footing with her sister colleges. Foot-ball, together with other dominant types of athletics, had at last become a tradition—ever a powerful element in the athletic life of a student body. The seasons of 1899 and 1900 were not so successful. The large number of inexperienced players, and lack of unity among the old players, weakened the teams sensibly and added but few laurels to the victories of former seasons. Last season, 1901, saw Ursinus renewing her old form. Much of the season was characterized by strong team play and by individual work among the players, and the brilliant work of Long, '02, Lentz. ’02, and Roth, ’03, merits especial mention. 1901 marked a new departure in the athletic government of the institution, in the adoption by the college authorities of the graduate system of direction in athletics—a system adopted by many of the Eastern colleges and universities. The brilliant and successful issue of the past season has demonstrated the wisdom of this new step, and speaks highly for the efficiency of the present incumbent, E. E. A. Kelley, ’01, whose loyalty and activity in athletics during his undergraduate days won for him the conspicuous honor of first Graduate Director of Athletics. No slight determining factor in the victories of the Varsity has been the strong worn of the Reserves. The gradual strengthening and perfecting of this necessary and valuable adjunct is one of the features of the present graduate system of direction. The great progress made within a relatively short period in athletics at Ursinus may be seen by a glance at the comparative scores on pages 106 and 118. Through the firm, persistent efforts of I)r. Barnard, with the cooperation of Professor Gummere, baneful elements have been thoroughly stamped out, and a standard for pure, bona fide athletics has been fixed and maintained for the student body; and thus the governing system has been brought to its present high efficiency and influence. 154 GENERAL ATHLETICS Basket-ball a distinctive feature of athletic life among our “co-eds '—has come into prominence within the last two seasons, 1900 and 1901. Inter-class games, tennis tournaments and field sports on commencement day all indicative of the prevailing trend and spirit of the institution—have been the source of much pleasure and entertainment. Relay races, gymnastic exhibitions and sports organi .ed and unorganized, have all added their share to the general fund of athletic spirit about the college. The loyal, undivided support of students and faculty has made possible the maintenance of our present high standard, and has called forth aspirations to further victories. Increased interest and more liberal support and encouragement on the part of the alumni are especially due to the athletics of our college. Students of the past should strive together, as a unit, with the students of the present for the extension and perfection of our athletic system, and thus conserve and advance the best interests of their Alma MaUr. Ursinus, we may now assert, has passed her novitiate period in athletics and stands ready to defend and battle for the traditions that have grown up about her. A general evolution in athletic sentiment has made possible the successes of to-day in college athletics. Though it is but a few years since our college first felt this impetus, true to her liberal ideals, ITrsinus has thrown her influence into this new field. And now, together with her sister institutions, she lends her energies to the upbuilding of American youth and the perfecting of American manhood. i55 THIC clouds in fleecy softness droop A down the Western sky, hike billowed foamy crests at sea Reflecting light on high.

Olevia .4 .J IN sequestered retirement, distant from the quiet street, hidden in a cluster of tall pine trees, and reached only by a long avenue densely shaded by the intertwining branches of maples and lindens, stands the Ilall of Olevia Her residence was once known as “ The Convent This name has disappeared from the Ursinus vocabulary, but the mysterious air and deep seclusion still remain. The approach of an outsider is retarded by strange forebodings, and an entrance through the carefully-guarded door is finally effected only with great difficulty. The secrets of this sacred abode are revealed to few besides its inmates: hence, these hints, dropped unwittingly, may suggest to none but the imaginative mind what it means to live with Miss Olevia. The interior of the Hall is cozy and suggestive of many pleasant hours, rrsinus oilers special inducements to girls, and has been guided by the principle of convenience in furnishing their dwelling place. Hence, this year the faculty kindly ordered a ‘screen’ for the benefit of evening callers. The appropriateness of having a sofa in the reception room is strenuously commended by a certain Soph, when lie tells of his “ initiation “ Do not talk so loud, you’ll waken the baby.” One of the most unique features of the domicile is the highly-complicated tap system—not in the sense of liquid refreshments, but of a call bell. It was first tried the night of the “ Grand Concert”. Detailed and careful explanation had been given, and the girls of the Mathematical-Physical Group were using every spare minute to fix the formula in the minds of their sisters. Suddenly the front door bell jingled. The girls rushed breathless into the halls. “ Tap, tap, tap.” That meant third floor. “Tap.” A dead silence. ‘‘Tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap.” Room 19 owned the lucky girl, who marched triumphantly downstairs, laughing to herself in a satisfied way. The success ot the system was evident from that hour, and on ” nights out ” the continuous ringing of the bells is the means of entertainment both for the ‘‘maydes ” and for the baby. The Hall has been the scene of many strange spectacles. Hallowe’en marks the height of the supernatural life of the place. It may lx- a phantom party. The room is dimly lighted by pumpkin faces peering out from among the shocks of corn and Autumn leaves, while dismal ghosts silently pass up and down in melancholy file as if walking on the banks of the Styx. Or it may be a general masquerade. But ghost stories never fail to crown the enchantment of the evening. 161 Seated around a large iron kettle, in which burns a wierd, glimmering light, throwing a ghastliness over the ashy faces, such tales are told as •• Would Harrow up thy soul, freeze thy young blood, Make thv two eyes, like stars, start from their sphere.” There have been baby tea-parties, faculty receptions, parties for the different classes, and not least are counted the “fads after hours’’ whose secrets are not revealed; but a good fellowship exists at these feasts, with fudge and olives as favorites. “Do not talk o loud, you’ll waken the baby.” Neither is the true I'rsinus spirit lacking among the fair Olevias. When the celebration of an athletic victory is arousing the enthusiasm of the boys, the girls clamber up to the high window and jump out on the roof. Here their songs and cheers ring out through the night air until the last spark of the bonfire in the distance dies out, and the echo of the “ red, old gold and black” faintly creeps across the tennis com ts and is lost. The Hall of Olevia is contributing her share in the making of I'rsinus traditions. 162 1903 Class Banquet March 14, 1%1 . , ToASTMASTKR, Wai.TKR I'- 11‘ � I I'SOMMKR To-night “A very merry, dancing, drinking, Laughing. |iuiffiug and unthinking time Frank 11.

THE DUMMY Then a discussion arose as to who should do the putting-up act, as every one wanted to stand guard outside, this being considered the post of danger. At last. Townsend, with a b-r-r in his voice and a wave of the hand, said : “ Cease, cease vour disputations. In such a momentous crisis as this, I, 1 alone shall assume tin- perilous position and the hazardous enterprise. I am especially predestined for the under taking; for my grandiloquence will at once precipitate an ignominious retreat on the part of any vile intruder.” So they all fell back before his oratory, except Wentz, who muttered : “ Oh go, rub your head against a shell-bark ! ” CHAPEL TALK I “ Students who are not sufficiently blessed with this world’s goods to provide themselves with hymnals can borrow the same at the college lawk room for the small sum of 1.25 ] er annum. — On Hymnals,” Octol ei 15, 1901. THE MASQUERADE “Suffice it to say that the maiden who held on to the ice cream stand deserves a |x sitiou on the ’varsity foot-ball team. She evidently breaks up interference well, is a sure tackier, and never fumbles.” CHAPEL TALK II “ The Board of Health of the Borough of Collegeville, herewith presents its compliments and requests all of you—young and obi, poor and rich, thick and thin—to have your arms scratched.”—“On Vaccination,” Decembers, 1901. ” Tommy, the Knocker.” after the above: Kid Rage!

CHAPEL TALK IV “ Some boys may think it smart to put a cow in a recitation room, and perform other similar tricks ; but I have good reason to believe and affirm that such tricks have long ago been designated ns effete and antiquated. There was a time when we had calves in our colleges, but that time has long since passed by.” 180 Pick-Ups , . ., « Smith’s Lament I sat me down and thought profound This maxim wise I drew : It’s easier far to like a girl Than make a girl like you. A Chemical Baby Dr. Barnard was telling the class in I'nited States history that children find queer names for things. “ Why,” said he, ” our l al y calls water ho — I guess because the chemical term for water is H, 0.” Affinities Blest he the tie that hinds Krebs to his neckties Bardy to Kutztown Smith to his pipe Peters to Cupid McConnell to his valiant steeds Shady to Whitev Keiter to his tire escapes Notice All students are hereby requester! to call a “spade” a “spade”, and to pronounce “ c-a-t-c-h ” as “ ketch. ”. By Order of the English Department. A Mathematical Application A girl’s conduct at Olevian varies inversely as the square of the distance from the matron’s room to her own. Noses But , thinks he will hire out his nose for a hat rack. McConnell guesses he will help paint the town red with his. Fisher pro| oses to turn his into a toboggan-slide, or “ shoot the chute”. Krebs is cor. tern plating the idea of putting his on the track to enable some lucky horse to win out by a nose. Moral Great, big noses all remind us.
