After graduating from a military school in Claverack, N. Y., he entered Wesleyan University and in 1880 he received the A. B. degree with 42 B li' honor.. Immediately after gradu- ation, he became principal of a large school in Winsted, Conn., Where he remained ten years. After leaving Winsted, he taught for two years in a private school in Philadelphia. In 1892, he resigned this position and spent the year traveling and study- ing in Europe. ' Upon his return, he served four years as principal of the Natick, Mass., High School, followed by seven years, in the same capacity, at the Milton, Mass.,iHigh'School. From this latter institution he came to us in September, 1904. Mr. Mead has always stood for impartiality and an.-unbiased dealing. The good of the whole school has ever been his motto, and although at times, he has met. with much unfair criticism from some quarters, still the school, as a whole, V-has seen the fairness of his views and has rallied to his support, with no hesitation. May he ever live up to his past record and continue to observe the rule he has established in the past: Equal rights for all, special privileges for none.

It was in 1813, during the war with England, when Utica was a village of about 1,700 population, that nineteen of the foremost citizens presented to the Regents of the State of New York a petition for an academy. But it was not until the following year-1814 -that the charter was finally granted. The charter was grant- ed only on condition that an academic building be erected and an annual income of one hundred dollars be assured. Those thus interested in the cause of higher education deter- mined to raise the necessary funds by popular subscription. About 31,600 was thus procured, when subscriptions seemed to have fallen, oi, and it was proposed, to solicit subscriptions for an Academy, Town House and Court House. But even thus no large amount was realized and the building was finally com- pleted with the aid of the trustees. , W H., A The Qld Academy But, while subscriptions were yet being solicited, a violent contest arose over the selection' of the site. It was finally --13- ,-,-'. ,. if V ' 1- , A, , ,. . .,. ,, .... .,.. .,... .,...a ....4.. - ' -gg.r.Q -gm Mzfffrmf M -if decided that each subscriber who plGd8' should be allowed a vote in choosing the location of the nelilv building. ln this .manner the lot on Chancellor Square PM 7 then but a bog through which ran a muddy ditch, Tecelved the largest number of votes, and upon this site the academical building, which was also to be the Town Court House, WELS ed five dollars or over erected. . . lt was not until 1818, however, that the building was finally completed at a total cost of SB8,000, most of which had been raised by popular subscription. The Academy building is described as a plain, unpretentious brick edifice - a low, rambling structure, rather less ornate than the present style of architecture demands. The building, however, was never too commodious and was ill adapted to serve the double purpose for which it was intended. In August, 1818, the Rev. Samuel T. Mills was chosen as the firstpreceptor of the Utica Academy at a salary of S800 per annum. A few months later an assistant was given him in the person 'of a Mr. Whiteside, who served at annual stipend of 3300. It is related with regard to Mr. Whiteside that on a certain Monday morning he failed to put in an appearance and his refractory pupils with joyful shouts of UCld Whiteside 's run away! marched off .the school premises, exultant at the unexpected prospect of a half holiday. By resolution of the trustees the right to hold court in the Academy building was formally conceded. .This was a most unwise move and one which resulted in mutual discomfort and disadvantage. Constables were obliged to restrain the boister- ous shouts of the exuberant youth during recesses, while pupils were often routed out of recitation rooms by jurors who werg about to cast lots or toss coppers for a verdict. th?ZqZi3iiEfeiifSSfYE1-'ZTI' if its existence, rules were adopted for appointed. e ca emy and a new teacher was also U e Academy, was formally recoo-- mzed as Hprincipayi- at a reduced salary, the extra dignity df title no doubt compensating for the lessened remuneration. Mr. Mills had resigned because of failing health, and in April, 1824, Captain Charles Stuart, a half pay officer Who. had served in India, was appointed as principal. Captain Stuart was noted chiefly for his eccentricities and for the extreme simplicity of his manner of living, but was conceded by all to be earnest and sincere, though inclined to be a stickler' for discipline. At this time alsothe ,Academyboasted of its iirst and only resident janitor. Sergeant John Hanson and his numerous family - both bestial and human -Were constantly at loggerheads with the students, ,while wails of infants and evil odors of more evil cooking permeated the ill-constructed. building. Viewed from any standpoint, the experiment was not a decided success and was abandoned. In November, 1828, military drill was instituted in the Academy, the pupils using wooden guns in the exercise of' arms. The functions of the school were for a time interrupted in 1832 by a violent outbreak of cholera. The school building- itself was converted into a temporary hospital and not a few succumbed to the ravages of the disease.. The most important. result- as' it affected the Academy-was the loss of the- academic library, which was destroyed at this time. A proposition was put forth in 1838 to annex the Utica. Female Academy, then in charge of Miss Urania Sheldon. This was declined, however, as her school was then fairly pros-- perous, without any dubious male entanglements. It is inter- esting to note that, according to the new code of by-laws drawn. up at. this time, the use of translations by the pupils was for- bidden, andthe principal was required to compare the best. translations with the originalauthors. ' 1 During these years new apparatus was acquired by the school and new teachers had been appointed until in 1840 the faculty' consisted of five instructors. By legislative act in 1843 the control of the schools was taken out of the hands of the board of trustees and placed in the- hands of the school commissioners, which system is still in vogue. The following year, by resolution of the commisioners, the Academy building was closed to Sunday meetings. At this gg. .g f , . .. . ..,. ... ..

Roberts, a graduate Of Yale University and later Treasurer of the United StateS, WHS 01105911 as PUD' cipal of the Academy. He continued in his duties, however, 1311-t 3 year, after which he resigned. V The New Academy The site upon which the Academy Was built included front- age upon John Street, and in 1851 this portion of the lot Was sold to the county, which erected thereupon the presentcourt house. . A destructive fire of incendiary origin, completely destroyed the Academy building in 1865, and the students Were again exposed to the Well meant, but harassing hospitality' of a court house. Here the school Work vvas pursued under many diffi- culties, long vacations sometimes being necessitated by the occupancy of the building for legal purposes. But the Academy worried along until 1867, When by liberal appropriations a new building was erected upon the same site, enlarged by the purchase of the adjoining lot on Academy and Bleecker Street. In February, 1868, the new building was dedigated to the cause of higher education, appropriate exercises being held. From this time there is but litle that commands the attention of the historian, the school movi . ng peacefully along in its pre- destined course. But in 1888 an enlargement was made to facilitate the crowded condition of the Academy. About 35,000 was thus expended in erecting an addition on the Bleecker Street side of the building. But even thus it was soon felt that a new building was neces- sary. In 1898 work was begun upon a new building on the site of the present Utica Free Academy. The building had been completed and was almost ready for occupancy, when for the second time in the history of the school, a destructive fire of incendiary origin broke out, and, despite all efforts of the firemen, the splendid new building was reduced to a heap of smouldering ruins. It was y a staggering blow, but, with indomitable courage, the people of Utica rallied and built the 'edifice anew. The building as it now stands is a model of perfect construction and is a credit to the community, repaying over and over again all the cost of the structure in the educa- tion of those entrusted to its care. A - . Prof. Sawyer, who for so many years had served so ably in the capacity of principal at the old Academy, was succeeded by Prof. Goodrich. He in turn served until 1903, when Dr. Benedict was appointed as his successor. Having served but a year in this capacity, he was summoned to a higher office, that of Superintendent of Utica 's public schools. Professor E. L. Mead, the present principal, has filled his place most acceptably, and to him great credit is .due for the present high standard of scholarship in the school. Un Monday evening, the twenty-seventh of April, nineteen hundred and eight, just ten years and twenty-two days after the last fire, the new Academy was burned. This was the third time in the history of the school and the second on the new Academy site, that the school has been totally or partially destroyed by flames. The fire was discovered soon after six o'clock, when Mr. Bigelow, of the commercial department, saw smoke coming from the roof. He entered the building with others, but they were unable to do anything on account of the smoke, so by the time the firemen arrived the fire had a good start and only the ree hours could bring the flames under C011JEI'Ol- hard Work of th c The loss to the city Was first estimated to be about SIXU' thousand dollars, but this Was greatly increased by the f-3111113 of a fire Wall, Which Was blown over, and Went crashing through the three floors to the basement. The fire for the most part Was kept in the third story, excepting in rooms tWenty-six and tWenty-eight, Where it burned through the ceiling. The greatest damage Was in the science department, Where all the valuable instruments Were kept-these Were destroyed. The commercial and drawing departments also Were completely destroyed, While the as- sembly became merely a pile of burnt timbers. The loss to the students Was comparatively small, except to the Post Graduates and those Who sat in room tWenty-sin, this room Was so demolished that the books could not be taken out. 'With the Academy building rendered useless by the fire, it Was necessary for the students 'to have their recitations outside their oWn building. One of the first generous offers was from the President of the Oneida Historical Society, Who offered the Munson-Williams Memmorial Building, and the Thorn Memmorial Chapel of the Tabernacle Baptist Church. So With the lllunson-Williams and the Thorn Memmorial Buildings, together With the Advanced School and part of the Administration Building,.the school opened on the folloWing Monday, at 8 o'clock, to complete the last eight Weeks of the school year. 4 All the arranging and planning Was done by our principal, wtslwill this fall, commence his iifth. year as head of the beatittlgisll ligttiritrgaitlcally new bulldmgl that Wm be more .2 Pted to our needs, and more modern than the one Just burned. -E. M. B., '09, -18- The Fencing Master u g, ERVAIS of Marsan on his tired horse, was trotting at a slow pace along the road leading to the village of Vouvray, which was not far distant. He had been traveling for a week or more from his native town and was now in a part of the country where none knew him. He was a' maitre d armes, or fencing master, who had set out to seek his fortune by teaching the art of the sword in the villages or towns through which he passed. As a swordsman- active, supple, sharp of eye, and splendid of limb--he had no equal anywhere :near Marsan. G I At a bend in the road Gervais, glancing back atgthe snow- covered country he had just passed, noticed that five horse- men were following him, some distance away. During the day he had been somewhat conscious that he was beingwatched, but since he had no enemies, nor feared any human being, he thought nothing of it, therefore when he perceived that he was being followed he simply let his horse amble on 'till he arrived at the tavern of ,Vouvray. Just as he was about to take a drink, the five horsemen clattered into the square in front of the tavern. One of the men, evidently the leader, dismounted and seizing the bridle' of Gervais' horse said, mln the name of King Louis, I arrest you.'7 G i 4'Parbleu, what a good jest! But methinks you have chased the wrong man., What wish you with Gervais of Marsan? , said that person. u 4' 'Gervais of Marsan'- so you have changed your name to that then Nlonsieur Poquefortl?

It was late in the afternoon when they started, and the chill of the evening was just beginning to be felt, the country was everywhere whitened, and the cold and severe. hand of winter held the traveler in its icy grip. The party of six, very cold and hungry from their long ride, arrived late in the evening within sight of the chateau of St. Arcles, and even Gervais was glad that. the journey was over, this chateau, situated upon a small hill in the woods some miles from Vouv- ray, was surrounded by numerous towers.. The prisoner was led into the great quadrangle and through a splendid hall into thepresence of Captain Felix. Captain Felix, a bully, and a hot-tempered French soldier, whose name was attached to many infamies was in command of the chateau of St. Arcles. He had been trying to capture and hang a certain.Monsieur Poquefort,-.who had been con- nected with some plot against the throne, but who had escaped. .Since a large prize was put upon his head, Captain Felix was very anxious to be the one to catch the traitor and had sent' many men out to scour the country. At first no trace could be found of him, but finally it was rumored that he was riding :about the country in the disguise of a fencing master, conse- 'quently when the horsemen spied Gervais, they decided that he was Poquefort, and accordingly followed and seized' him, think- ing that there could be no doubt, of his identityq The room in which Gervais found himself face to face with Captain Felix was elegantly designed according to the customs ofthe period: The walls and ceiling alike were panneled and painted, the tapestry chairs had come from Paris, the other furniture was perfect in symmetry and design. ' ' mAh! Monsieur Poquefortf' said Captain Felix, who had been informed of the capture, your disguise is really most excellent. You certainly should have been a fencing master. But in France a traitor does not go at large very long, Nfesj- -20- j , ce-pczs fviazfi, Cher monsieur? To-morrow at dawn you hang from the battlementsf' ' ' ' ' HSacre tonners,'7 exclaimed the innocent prisoner, realizing the graveness of the mistake, what jest is this that you wish to hang Gervais of Marsan from your battlements for some matter he knows nothing about? ' Q 'Q - J est indeed! Do you not already feel the rope around your neck? You are certainly a very fine actor, Monsieur Marsan. The meatre Francais will have sufferedra .gre.at...loss..indee.d. But you .can 't deceive such a' sly old fox as Captain Felix. Men lead the traitor away, but since he has not many more hours on this earth, give him a hearty supper and a good bed. 4'This is an outrage, cried Gervais as he was seized to be led away. 4'Can Ihave no trial to prove my innocence of this false accusation? Will no justice be shown me? A ' As for a trial, sneeringly replied the cruel captain, to prove you innocent, as you say, why it would be a waste of precious time. As much justice as you would have accorded your victim ,will be shown you. In twenty-four hours,...Mrg Poquefort, you will be pleasantly wandering in a .warmer clime. Now away with him men, till the dawn. . Forthwith poor Gervais was dragged protestingly from the room amid the scornful laughter of the heartless soldiers. He was thrust into a small and cheerless room, in the middle of which stood a large bed and 'a candle was flickering on a table nearby. The big oaken door had been soundly locked and bolted from without, and so he sat 'down at the table to think over his situation. ' A y i z Here he was in a strange part of the country, without a friend who could help himf He had been seized as a prisoner and was 'going to be hanged, within a few hours, for a crime he knew nothing about. If he could die for a friend or for his country, he would willingly go to his execution. 'But to be taken as a traitor -and killed for some person he had never known or seen-life was too sweet for that, so he decided' he must make a bold attempt to escape. A As he was thus brooding, the door was unlocked and in came the officer of the party which had captured him, bringing -21-- ' . ., . f ,fn f- U .-1 ff af, ff'-1 f f .ff Cy 'ff -A'-1 . 9:51971 .ff ff 4'-ff 'f mf 'f-QM ' 4 f u -1' A- 1 59 ' 4,a.-.uw Jdf zddifffl-if-ffi'-fn f Al ,gfg,4ffff4?44f,22 -iff' 'f '1'f?ff2fK5t,ffffff. .42-115551 if f g -.gf-an-Y-A A-Y-N :E 1 i 1 1. 1 P1 I I I1 ,E 1 I l V.

Gervais had in his mind to spring upon his visitor and fkill him, but the guard would then rush inand he would surely 'be hanged, so he put that thought aside. The trooper set thesupper down on the table and said, I have been ordered to eat and drink with you, and lowering his voice, HI am very glad, for I believe you are not Poqufort from your honest look, therefore you can count on me as a friend. .V Gervais jumped to his feet and grasped the officer's hand. Not too loud,7' continued his new friend, the guard in the hall might hear. Sit down and eat. I have an old score against the captain,that I would like to pay, and then get away, for I don't like it hereat all. by G 'A When the supper had been finished, the trooper began, 9'Now listen. I am on guard before your door for the second watch, and to let you know that its I, I'll drop my musket,, Then when all is quiet, I'll unlock the door and give you your sword, which the captain gave me. You see how they trust me, letting me eat with you, and putting me on your guard, and if I was to be caught, I would hang with you at dawn too. VVell, when you get the sword you can climb quietly up to the captain's bedroom just at the top of the stairs, where you'll find a guard, but methinks you can manage the rest all right. Then when you get through with Captain Felix, you'll find me outside with a couple of good steeds, and then to Angonleine where' we will be safe. - ' So after Gervais had thanked him for his friendship and assured him that he would be ready on time, the officer left the room, and Gervais heard him mutter to the guard down the hall, thatit was .hard to have to eat supper with a traitor. When the prisoner was alone, he rejoiced that he had such a friend, and a chance to revenge himself on his enemy, the captain, and perhaps escape. t U With great hopes and anticipations, he waited in the dark- ness for what seemed centuries, 'till he might be released. Finally he heard the change of guards, the clatter of a falling musket, an oath, and he knew that it was his friend. After some time, when all was again still, he caught the sound of the -23- door being unlocked and opened. Instantly with noisless foot he crept out into the hall. 'There his sword was thrust into his hand, and someone whispered in his ear. '4The stairs are to the right. ' Gervais needed nothing more to start him, and so he quietly crawled up the dimly lighted stairs, until he came within sight of the captain's door, before which he beheld a trooper, nodding drowsily. In an instant Garvais had him by the throat, and with the 'point of his sword at the trooperls heart said. f'Give the alarm, and you speak no more. The startled guard, believing that his fate had arrived roared: Captain! Captain! I-Ie had hardly uttered these words than Gervais thrust him through the heart. As the great -door of the bed-chamber opened, and Captain Felix appeared, a blow from Gervais' fist sent him realing back into his room. The fencing master, witha leap, was after him, and had the door boltedand barred, ere a man couldtake two breaths. HIn heaven's name, who are you?'7 cries the frightened captain, perceiving that this wasnot Poquefort. I 'fBy your .own admission, one who should have been a fencing master, was the answer.. . HBut, we have very little room here, Monsieur. - Well Captain, we can put it to the testf' . Gervais could not kill this man in cold blood, and so- he decided to try a ruse. With an air of intent preoccupation, he began to- light the tapers onthe mantleshelf. Instantly Felix, fallinginto the trap, snatched up his sword and rushed at the fencingemaster. Gervais was expecting this, and, with a quick spring, and a little cry. of triumph, stood on guard. Rushing forward blindly, .and with no skill, Felix's sword struck the wall. When on recovering himself and feeling steel upon his own, he knew his time hadcome, and beganto weaken. He offered Gervais his freedom, but the ,fencing master, knowing he could not be trusted, refused. Upon this the trembling brute in despair cried for the guards. Then the fight began in earnest. Felix, though very frightened, fought well, but was no match for Gervais. My lord, said the fencing master, Hthose ruftles are somewhat over-full for this business. Let me relieve you of -23... , them, H And with a feint in octave, he cut a piece off from the captain 's coat. H HI have your ruffles upon my point, observe. The comedy played between these two was dreadful in its detail. One by one, Gervais cut the rufflesoff from his adver- sary's shirt, and touched him with his points upon the arms' and breast. Finally, when a rush of men was heard in the hall, the dead guard having probably been found, and the alarm given, Gervais ran his man through the heart, crying: Revenge! - G He wiped his dripping sword upon the bedclothes, and opening the casement, looked out upon the snow-covered ground below him. There he saw the figure of a man -holding two horses. ,By this time the soldiers had arrived at the captain's door, and receiving no answer to their. calls, had begun to beat the door in. 'Then Gervais began to wonder how he was to reach his friend below.. Was he -to be caught and hanged after all? He dismissed that thought and deter- mined to jump, trusting to land in a big bank of snow, beneath the window. Thendrop fromlthe casement to the snow below was a high one, but, since life was at stake, he did not hesitate. The woodwork was flying in splinters, and he could see the great door yielding under the assault' of the menf He thought of the risk of jumping, he might strike a buttress anywhere, but in the yielding snow. But as the door gave at last, and furious soldiers rushed in, he sprang into the air. 4 It seemediages to him before he struck the ground, and the sensation was not at all pleasant. But he -landed H--safely in a .snow-bank. After getting his breath, he crawled out and shook himself. His friend, the trooper grasped his hand, and then helped him upon his horse. Amid a volley of muskets, the two leaped forward, and galloped into the night. G At noon, the next day, Gervais and the trooper were safe in Angonlaine. r ' -24 .. The Absent Portrait H HE winter of 18- had been a most trying one for me in theprofession. Never had the hospitals been more- crowded, nor 'had the cases seemed more hopelessly intricate, and much as I loved the work, the awful strain was telling. on me. So it was, that, when a letter. arrived from old r ' 'college chum, Richard Ainsworth, inviting me to spend a Couple of months with him at his old home near Salem, I gladly accepted the much-needed opportunity for rest and recreation, besides being delighted at the prospect of seeing my old friend, Dick, again., , The Ainsworths' place had proved to be a large, well-kept farm, known as The Elms, with a magnificent, old-fashioned country-house, parts of which were almost two centuries old. The first two weeks of my stay 'had provided excellent weather, so that most of the time had been consumed out-of-doors, in long excursions, or simply delightful laziness. But at length one rainy day, when we were obliged to stay in doors, Dick planned for me a long-promised treat, a more thorough eX- amination of the curious old mansion, with its many nooks and hidden crannies, and in particular a minute inspection of the old library, with all the family relics it contained. T Accordingly I passed through massive and curious old chambers, revelled in the fine old works of art and the magnificent plate which were family heirlooms, and imbibed all the ancient beauty of the- place. . T But for beauty, richness, antiquity and historical interest, the library, with. its collection of books, old and new, its massive carved furniture, its family portraits and relics, was indeed a 'revelation to one who had always lived so much in the present as myself. With almost every portrait there was a story to relate, some characteristic of the individual, pleasing' or otherwise. The walls were covered entirely with the por- - I ' i201 ,. , , .,, ,I pi, '.,,,,- - ,gr-,zfjp ai ' traits of those who had been, during their life-time, masters or mistresses of The Elms, and in surrounding cabinets, were treasures of each generation, a bit of old rare china from one, ga silk fan from another, a sword from another, and so on. There was even a tiny pair of hand-embroidered mocassins .and a bag of bead-work in one compartment, testifying to the tastes of some early Ainsworth dame. ' I i There was one conspicuosly blank spaceon the wall, to which I could not help calling my friend 's attention, inasmuch as every other available inch, was utilized, andin fact' the pictures from the last two generations had been hung in a little .adjoining room, containing, for the most part, old records and documents. 5 Ah, said my friend, Hthat blank space is kept- in' our family hall, in loving remembrance 'of one who should have been mistress of 'The Elmsf but upon whom the shadow of a terrible superstition fell, causing her to be an alienfrom friendsand family. You must be weary of looking and examin- ing, sit down here before the fire-place and I will tell you all that I know of Charity Ainsworth, who alas, never succeeded to her true position in the history of this house. 7 ' . So there, lost in the comfortable recesses of a great leather :arm-chair, before the curious old fire-place, where the dancing light and shadow ofa roaring fireseemed to reveal all the ancient secrets and treasures of the weird room, I was carried back, by my friend's narrative, to a time of early colonial struggles, and frontier hardships, before even the shadow' of .a separation between Great Britain, and the colonies-to that black year of 1692, the saddest in the whole history of New England. Charity Ainsworth was the only child of most intelligent :and loving parents, loving, yet possessing all the strictness of the Puritans, who lived in the fear of God and the rightousness of man. A I-Ier childhood and girlhood had been comparatively free from hardships which many had encountered, and up to her sixteenth year ,but one cloud had darkened her horizon. That was the loss of her friend and comrade from babyhood, Philip ...gg- Wendover, who had disappeared from Salem Farms Seven years ago. g v He had been playing out in the woods one day with others of his own age, when in some unaccountable way he had strayed from the rest and become lost, deeper' and deeper in the woods. Nothing further was ever known' of him, and although the most careful search was made,'not even a corpse, or the foot-prints of a struggle remained to show his 'grief- stricken. parents and friends whether he had met his death through wild beasts or prowling Indians, or had died- of starvation, in the lonely woods. '4Such catastrophes were not unknown to the people of that period, and in the years that followed, the bitterness of first grief, was swallowed up almost in forgetfulness ofone who had been with them such a short time. But there was'o'ne in Salem Farms who never forgot her comrade Philip. lt was Charity Ainsworth, who, in spite of all indications tothe contrary, always hoped that her little friend still lived, and believed that she would ultimately see himuagain. Indeed so firmly was this conviction rooted in her heart, that she shunned the society of boys and young men, although by this time most of her girl friends had married, and even her parents would have liked. her to wed one of the many fine young men in the community. b l But Charity would listen to no suiter, so that one by one those who had been charmed by her sweet bright face and gentle manners, had left her to court more responsive maidens. Ambrose Graham, alone, of them all, was intensely passionate in his love, and ceaselessly importuned her to return his affection. He was, to all appearances a fine, handsome, manly young fellow, of good family and means, and highly desirable in all eyes but Charity's. She ,still remained true to her childish lover, and preferred a single life, to marriage with one whom she could not love. Since her people 's prosperity made it impossible for her ever to want, she determined to give her life for others, and especially 'to care for the sick and the poor. An old llldidll servant, who had worked for them many years had taught ..2'7.. .f .1 1 ' 'viffzzzrz iff J ?fiif5 fv i1 any v her the secret of medicinal herbs and their preparation, S0 that together with her womanly patience and sympathy, She was of the rarest value at every sick-bed. ' , lt was at this time, in her sixteenth year that the terrible epidemic of Salem witchcraft broke out in their hitherto peace- ful village. The superstition was started by some demented children, influenced by an old Indian nurse, Tituba, who claim- ed that they were being tortured by spells cast over them by certain of the good people of the region, who had always been regarded as peaceful and harmless. The curse rapidly spread, and it was used by anyone who bore a grudge or possessed an enemy to cast over them disrepute and ignominy. The mere accusation of the afflicted children, who professed to be under these spells, was sufficient to subject the accused to trial, and death, if found guilty, which was generally the case. Not only did this madness seize hold of the common people, but the magistrates and clergy themselves believed in it, and did' all they could to punishthose said to possess this evil power. Only a few of the saner and more reasonable of, the people denounced this witchcraft delusion, and sought to arouse public indignation against its atrocities. The Ainsworth were among this number, and refused either to testify against old friends and neighbors or to-have any belief in the reality of witchcraft. In particular Charity was grieved and angered atthis wicked snare of delusion, for she had ample opportunity to observe its horrible eiects in the village homes where she sought to be of some comfort. In her work among the sick and poor, in min- istering to those who had been deluded in thinking themselves under wicked spells, she had seen the horror of it all. The ravages of those affiicted, not in body, but in spirit, filled her with disgust and pity, the accusations against old friends, the trials and tortures used to wring out false con- fessions, the cruel deaths of those whom she knew innocent all filled her mind, greatly matured foruher age, with dark forei boding for her country and friends. A Hlt was not for others, however, but for herself, that Charity had to fear. Her thwarted lover, Ambrose Graham, seeing a '97 5fW77 f' means now to force her to his wishes, determined to make the most of it. One day When she was out in the woods gathering medicinal herbs, she was suddely confronted by Graham's sullen andmorose face. She was not one to flinch at an un- pleasant encounter, and braced herself instinctively for what she felt would be somthing deeply concerning her welfare. '4She listened to his passionate and violent speech, which was that if shewould not consent to be his wife he would cause the accusation of witchcraft to be brought against her, with the usual fatal results. In his own selfishness and cowar- dise he never believed that Charity would hold out against such a threat.. But indeed he did not realize the strength of resolution contained in that frail form. 1 . .. F' 'No,,Ambrose Grahamf shereplied, calmly and coldly, il will never marry you. ,Bring this accusation against 'me if you will, you who profess to love me. Surely the record of my past life will sustain me. ln any case God will protect his child against such foul dishonorf ' . . '4All the cunning plans of the jealous lover were frustrated. He had never dreamed of such resistance, and all the horror ofthe scenes of the witchcraft trials failed to move her from her purpose. But he had vowed to bring the charge against her, and now hatefulas it was even to him, he must carry out his threat. 'At all events,7 he muttered, as he strode off from the resolute girl, 'she will never live tobecome the wife of another' :Charity returned to the home which she had left so full of youthful buoyancy and hope that afternoon, with a sad heart indeed. A terrible load lay on her mind, it seemed as if the whole world were against her, the very stones seemed to accuse her falsely, she seemed to see, as in a dream, the trial-room, with every friendly face turned from her in scorn. Vainly she prayed for divine strength, her footsteps wavered, her senses became benumbed, the weird awfulness of the witchcraft horror crept over her soul. H 4Surely those whom I have always loved will not desert me? Surely the God whom Irphave so faithfully served will not suffer me to be condemned? Thus she moaned and prayed the entire night but alas it seemed as if her fate were only - 7 D , 0 i I I ' ' 0 J 7 7 ' ' ,. ,. ,f f f ff ff-a .fe-114f..4f,f,ff.-,:,: f:fcfgzfr ,sfggwfgrygr-a-55,451-aff, f -v f ff f ff M W 4 33:11 ge, too inevitable. The very next morning She was confronted by the Elders of the church with the charge of exercising the evil power of witchcraft on one Prudence Graham, Who was most terribly racked in body and spirit by evil spirits in the guise of Charity Ainsworth. i- '4All her entreaties and protestations of innocence were of no avail, the charge prevailed. In view of her remarkably blameless life and character, she would be allowed until the following day at sundown, to withdraw the enchantments from the tortured girl. lf the afflicted one had not commenced to rally by that time, Charity Ainsworth would be cast into prison, and the following day be tried for witchcraft. Her conviction was almost certain, as her honesty and sincerity forbade her following the only course which could save her- acknowledging herself to be guilty. , At her request she was allowed to see the sick girl, who recoiled and cried out withfterror at her approach. But Charity in her skill and knowledge of sickness, divined at-once the nature of the fever which afflicted her friend, and thus still hoped, by curing her, to save the lives of both. 4'She knew an herb which was an infallible remedy for this disorder, and if she could only procure it, would cure the disease and restore her mental balance. The only trouble was that this herb usually could be found only in the early spring, and now it was the first month of summer. But with a con- stant prayer on her lips, shehoped againts hope, and spent the entire day in the woods searching for the precious herb. At last, near sundown, she realized that the' quest was hopeless, and seating herself on a grassy bank, near a little stream, where so often she had played as a child with Philip, she poured out a last agonizing prayer for Divine aid. , HA soft thud struck her ears, and she opened her eyes to see an Indian, with a gleaming knife in his hand, crouching before her. She neither started nor screamed, but resigned herself to what she believed to be a speedy death, and by motions, signs, and all the means of expression at her command, beseeched the savage to put a speedy end to her miserable existence. To her surprise she heard an old, familiar voice, -30.- 4442? a long dead memory from the past, exclaim in English: 4Charity, can it possibly be you?' , 4'In the next moment she was in the Indian's arms, relating- all the horrible events of the last few days, while he in turn described to her his life for the last seven years. When 10515 that summer 's day, he had been picked up by a band of stray Indians, carried to a far distant state and brought up as an Indian warrior. Although happy and beloved among his.. new friends, growing, to all appearance to be a true Indian warrier, he never completely forgot his old home, or English speech, or customs. He determined, when he was old enough, to leave camp to return to Salem, andfind out if Charity' were still true to him, resolving, if he found her happily married, to return forever to his forest haunts. A '4He had arrived at just the right time to save her from a, terrible disgrace and death. Only waiting to scratch a rude note on some bark to her' parents, telling them of her happy escape, and placing it in a conspicuous position, she passed out into the great woods, following her brave Indian lover- into the vast world. t S? it -5? ' 2? it 5? 2? S? 2? S? S32 'cYears passed, the witchcraft delusion, shattered by its. own barbaric intensity, spent -itself. The people aroused atlast by the awful atrocities, put down the tyrannical witch tri- bunals. All had been secretly glad when Charity Ainsworth. had made her escape, and sadly they bemoaned that their too- late awakening could not restore the absentlmembers to grief-- stricken homes. p I HSiXteen years after Charityls disappearance from Salem, a young stalwart Indian, of about twelve years of age, walked. up the wide avenue leading to 'The Elms,' where now the Ainsworths were passing a lonely and secluded old age. In broken English he related his story. He was the son of Philip- Wendover and Charity Ainsworth. His father had been killed, in the chase when his son was three years old. Charity, who'- had become accustomed to her Indian friends, and -grown to- love her husband's people as her own, determined to remain as Philip is widow always with those, who, in this world, had. , -4 ,., f, f f, - ,,,'-,ff A c f'-3 u f. , , -ff giigyp -inf, .5. !T74fff4 flcfgyfdjv nf- ,44,,,,, ,, 1 ,5 C4 11, 545 fzzgiz J, been kindest to her. But she naturally mourned for her hus- band, who had been most dear to her, besides the only one whom she ever saw of her own race, and the medicine-men predicted, in all sorrow and grief, that they Would S0011 Part with 'Snow-Blossomf as they had named her, that she would soon be with her husband in the happy hunting-grounds. Although content, herself, to remain among the simple Indians, Charity desired that her son should return to his own people .and inheritance at her death, and had always insructed him to that effect. WVhen,at last, she was laid at rest, he returned to the land of his fathers, where he was indeed most gladly received into the household of 'The Elms' as its future lord and master. And indeed there have been few better land- -owners than this Philip Wendover Ainsworth, as he was called. - 5 'cHis picture is hanging there,'7 I heard my friend say, as in a dream, and recalling myself to the present, I let my eyes- rest on the portrait' of a strong, clear-cut, intelligent face, with firm lips and dreamy, sad eyes, which hung opposite the fire- place. From there my eyes instinctively turned to the blank space beside it. The last, flickering gleam of the fire-light played over the bare surface, interweaving strange scenes of witch-fires, shadowy woods, courts of justice and stealthily gliding Indians. A moment these memories seemed to enliven the meaningless wall, a flicker, a last spark of dying fire, and all was still, the shadows and the lighthad fled, and of all the pathetic history there remained but a blank space among the portraits of the Ainsworths. -MARY I.

The oft-repeated phrase, 'CI-lappy is that people whose annals are brief,'7 seems to sound the key- note of our history. Not that '08 has ever remained in the back- ground, no, indeed, only that we recognize that for our illus- trious record we are indebted to plain, conscientious endeavor, rather than conspicuosly irregular efforts. In the beginning it must begladly confessed, that not only our own earnestness but the direction and kindly counsel of others has made it possible for 1908 to be the very queen of classes. It was our great good fortune to enter upon our Fresh- man year at the same time that our principal, Emory L. Mead, took up his duties in the Academy, and we are therefore bound to each other by a stronger tie of interest and loyalty than would perhaps otherwise have been the case. lt has been our pride and delight to see the school become better organized and equipped every day under his wise and impartial guidance, and also our privilege to be the foremost, always, in 'aiding him in all reforms, in following out his suggestions, and endeavoring to make the letters HU. F. A. signify those attributes which he was the first to ascribe to them: Union, Faith, and Ambition. This ntting motto gave rise to another innovation in our school customs of which the .class of 1908 proudly claims itself to be the author. One of our members, J. Price Morris, designed a handsome U. F. A. seal carrying out the thought' of this motto, so that at last our school has a universal pin which may be worn by members of any class in years to come. Let us' hope that they may not forget that it is to 1908 that they owe this pleasure and honor. . Another school custom which has grown up with us since our -36- Freshman Year is the writing and col taining particularly to U. F. A. This has been an added inspiration to school spirit, and we wish to thank all members of the faculty and others who have be ueathe ' fl d to us these treasures of school memories. 1 Many changes have been made in the ran during the past four years, and though deeply regretting the loss of our former friends among the faculty, we have joyfully welcomed the new. 1908 takes particular pride in our new department of elocution, which has been established in time, at least, for us to receive no small amount of benefit thereby. In support of all school customs and institutions, 1908 -has always taken a foremost part. ,The Year Book, the first of its kind, issued by the class of '07, received materi -from members of our class, and hearty support from the class as a whole, and it is to be hoped that our hearty support as the Senior class will make its publication possible this year also. T CC ' 77 he Academic Observer, upon whose staff 1908 students have taken a prominent part for the last three years, has been better than ever before, owing to an increase, both in price and the number of representative students on the board. Hereafter membership on the latter will be obtained by competition, rather than by appointment. 9 Not only has 1908 always shown the greatest school spirit, and kept up a ine record of scholarship, but in athletics and social events it has made vast improvements, and eclipsed all records. Prior to our coming to U. F. A. the Athletic Association was decidedly run down, in debt, irregularly conducted, and subject to much criticism. But in the beginningof 1904 a decided effort was made to place it upon a substantial and high-principled basis. Voluntary contributions, in which the '08 Freshies had a large share, aided in clearing it of debt, and a new consti- tution was drawn up, which provided regulations tending to eliminate party feeling from athletic administration, and make the sports themselves dependent on good school record, rather than allowing them to absorb too much prominence. Certainly U. F. -A. has never had a finer, cleaner record than during the last four years. .

Then we lost it to the Seniors by one game only, while it is not likely to pass out ofour hands again before graduation. 1908 has also contributed largely to thelmake-up of the school teams, since such stars as Quigley, Pink Thomas, Bostwick, Greene, Rowe and McCleuthan, have been all f08 men. 1 Mr. Greene, last year 's president of the Athletic Association, and our two able managers of foot ball and basket ball, Bostwick and Lux, reflect great credit on the class of 1908. But in social events, particularly, the class naughty eight yields the palm to none other. The biggest event of the season, the Junior Promenade, as given by our class in 1907, was un- paralleled in the -history of the school. In giving this annual reception to the Senior class, we were the first to abandon the narrow-precincts of our drawing-room and to regulate admit- tance by proper cards, although by no means the first to feel the need of such an arrangement. Future classes may equal, but none can- excel, the success of our Prom. Nearly .three hundred couples' danced in White 's .Hall to the strains of a peerless orchestra, and admired the artistic decorations which the committee had designed. The splendid collation and vocal num- bers, enjoyed during' intermission, were only features of this happy evening, which still lingers in the minds of U. F. A. students. p , In performing its usual duty of decorating the assembly hall for class-day and graduation-night, as the Junior class, 1908 held its usual proud level, and all who saw our building on these occasions, last year, appreciated the new touches and artistic work of the committee. A The mandolin club, whose existence, though short-lived, brought so much pleasure to Academy pupils and friends, owes its success chiefly to some members of the class of 1908, and especially Mr. Roland Foster. The Glee Club, another inno- ' -es- fy . 13 vation, received hea.rty support from our class, and promises to be a lasting success. Although the graduating class, of 97 members, shows a decided decrease from our first enrollment as Freshmen, nevertheless, the difference is more than made up by the betterment of quality. In fact, 1908, Which Was the largest class up to that time Which had ever entered, 'possessed so many superior and valuable ,mem- bers, that We Were only too glad to assist some of the Weaker classes by bequeathing to them, in kind charity, some of our brightest members. What remains noW, is, in a true sense, the survival of the fittest,5i' 'and represents the cream of four years additions and subtractions. And indeed We are- justly proud of our record in scholarships. Out of 97 members in the class, nine are,,on the honor roll, and reflect great credit on their class and themselves. ' A f 1908 has alvvays stood for impartial justice, and shoWn the greatest judgment in election of officers and those ascribingito class-honors. The only rash and unWise action Which our class has ever been knoW to take, Was in the ,unanimous election of their class historian, an act for Which We plead the forgiveness of our sister classes, and trust, that in their mature judgment they Will commit no such errorsj v Although partaking deeply of the joys of school existence, it has been the lot of the Senior class of this year, to suffer an incomparable loss in the burning of our beautiful Academy building. Words cannot express 'the sorroW Which prevaded the heart of every member of '08, in beholding our Academy, With its host of 'pleasant memories, and the anticipation of imminent graduation, in sad ruins. Every student of the school and true citizen of Utica, hoWever, has been va like mourner With us. Although ours Was the greatest bloW, ours Wasalso the 'greatest opportunity of showing ourselves superior to circum- stances, and noW, or never, of bearing out our motte, Which signiies, 4'Nothing Impossible. W . A Through the' prompt rallying of our school board and faculty, and the kindness of citizens of the community, We oWe the privilege of being alloWed to finish our school course, and We take this opportunity of thanking them, one and all. Although --39.. 1 nl 1 Wff'WW W our last farewell will not be said in our own Academy halls, none the less truly-Will We have graduated from the Utica Free Academy, with all credit to ourselves and. teachers. So' that now, as our Commencement Day approaches, with tears in our eyes, but hope in our hearts and Voices, With fond memories' of the past, and glad anticipation of the future U. F.

The scattered trees are listening - mute, To the cadenced lilt of the torrent 's flute. Over the sunny, drowsy world the blue sky seems To sleep, all nature dreams. T The wild-flowers hang their heads and hide in the grasses, bending the road beside. The fair, straight road that seems to leap, in the distance, out from the airy deep. And mountainous crag and Vale withstands, To vanish at last in the dim woodlands. But, stay I what breaks the noon-tide peace, The mountain echoes all release? i Prone on the bank by the torrent 's spring, Sweeps on his worn gilt harp the string, Look I a restless shepherd lad, And his strain is dreary - sad. Steal near and list to his lonesome ditty, For a shepherd's song is ever pretty. See how his glance turns up to the skies. There are tears in the depths of his wistful eyes. He sighs as one in a fearful dream. f Neglected, his staff floats down the stream.. The violet in thelong grass wakes, ' The tree his lazy branches shakes, f A robin in a nearby copse, To hear the music forward hops, ' And a chirping cricket stops its play I As he tunes his mournful lay: ..47.. f K.

O Alma whom the snows call sweet, And daffodils yellow beneath thy feet. O thou hast bid me a long farewell. Wherefore? - For thy smiles do nothing tell. I-Iear me, ye Winds of the Summer Day! Why forth am I sent on the Shining Way? Four precious years her encircling arm, Hath' kept from me all touch of harm. Yon in that hut that gleams through the trees, Like a tiny ship in the emerald seas, 1 She hath been to me like an angel mother For I was an orphan and had no other. Whence she came and ,whither she goeth, I know not, only the great J ove knoweth. I only know she hath given to me All that is brightest in life and free. For I was a soulless, wanton child Till she called me out from the lawless wild. With the wisdom of riper years I see They were jewels, the playthings she gave to And the golden key in the great lock 's vise, Opened the gate to Paradise, Ah, me unhappy! it rusty stands, . For I grew tired of aching hands. She taught me to hold my sheep to the way, To bring them back when afar they 'd strayf But over the lesson I'd drone and yawn, VVatching the moon or the rising dawn. And now my flocks I cannot keep, I'm a shepherd without a sheep! Yet happy hours I've spent in thee, Little hut under the apple tree! Shepherds I've loved, and shepherdesses In rags and dirt, in silver dresses. Peace, little hut, to thy quiet hall! Because thou shelter 7st, I love them all. -43- 7 H1 And yon she sits in the hut's arehed door, Alma Mater whom gods adore! Noble her brow, her head borne high, r Divine smiles sparkling in her eye. Her finger points to the Shining Way. I dare not linger, no more dare stay. O Alma Mater the Way is long! The heart that travels it must be strong. Mme drops in my breast like a weary thing That fain would rest in its mother 's wing. , Yet, sinee thou bidst - come' heaven or hell I go, Beloved, I go. Farewell , I I-Ie rose and over his 'shoulder slung, His harp that had so lately rung With the strains of his mournful lay. And he silently took the Shining Way K With the low-bent head and footsteps slow ' Of him who is loath to go. Q Behold a' quiet afternoon On a mountain top, in the month of J une. The seattered trees are listening +mute, To the eadeneed lilt of the torrent 's flute. Over the sunny, drowsy world the blue sky seems To sleep 5 all nature dreams.

' M N - . lchabod Crane Ichabod Crane Was sitting one day In the little old school-house across the Way, When a negro boy on askinny mule, e Gralloped up and called Ichabod out from school. A note had he from a maiden coy ' Who, had sent it thus by the negro boy. Good gracious , said he, 'tis an invite to tea, The school is dismissed on the stroke of three. Then Ichabod hurried and scurried about And hastened to don his old black surtout.. 9 From old Herr Brummel, Who lived 'cross the Way, He borrowed a saddle and an old dapple gray. ' I. As he set out on his Way to the tea, . H His coat tails were flapping and his arms stuck out Like the grasshoppers jumping in fields round about His beaver hat Was a century old, -' And the 'rest of this outfit had long been sold. His appearance was such as to give one a fright, He surely' bore likeness to the angel of night. He arrived at Van Tassel 's 'and had a fine time, And talked With Katrina till -long after nine, For he vvas in love With this maiden so fair, VVho had dreamy blue eyes and deep golden hair. Now lchabod's fortunes took a sudden nevv turn, And poor lchabod's cheeks began fairly to burn, For he had proposed to this Dutch maiden fair, And she had with promptness left him seated. there. e -58- I C'7Z4'?76'5f7ff.55 6Clffl7574flf65'7I7f7' 'Tvvas as funny a sight as ever could beg . Then with unsteady step -and more sorrowful mien Then 'ever before on that farm had been seen, f He turned to the stable and in anger did lead Forth the old gray Gunpowder that served as his steed. Then he jogged slowly back oier the muddy highway He so gaily had trod once before on that day. The moon had come. up and shed a pale light,- So pale that all objects seemed spectres that night. x He heard a low sound like a long summer sneeze, But found it was only the wind in the treesj He saw a white Hgure and tho 't 'twas a ghost, But looking again, he saw only a post. A i H Now he neared a lone ,graveyard beside the deep brook Where renowned' and most active there dwelt an old spook 5 i T r 'Twas anold Hessian soldier of long German name Who had once lost his head in the midst of war 's game. Of a sudden his horse started backward and shied As the terrible Hessian from the graveyard did ride. He then kicked with his heels and struck with his whip And away they went racing at two-forty clip. T H The race' for his safety was finished,-not won, For the Hessian 's brave steed could not well be outdone. As uphill and downhill they went at mad speed He could feel the hot breath ofthe Hessian 's steed. v The Hessian now rose in his saddle and threw As rotted a pumpkin as e'er on vine grew. It struck our poor hero so square on the head That it tumbled him down in the road like one dead. Then the Hessian with one fearful blood-curdling yell Rose up in his stirrups and shouted farewellg Nothing more of this story is left ,me to say, T 4 But that Ichabod's studied in old U. F.

Review of Athletics HE hopes of the school for having a Winning foot ball team for 1908 Were bright indeed, veteran men Were' back to fill theback field positions and plenty of good material came out and Worked faithfully for positions on the line. It vvas no Wonder, with these conditions before them, that coach and captain set to Work With a vim to turn out a good team, and their success, as shovvn by the records made, was marked. Criticism of the personnel of the team Would be out of place in this history, but it cannot be closed Without reference to the splendid services of the three men vvho carried the ball andthe coach. Captain Davis, playing left half-back, Riley Hayes, right half-back and Grey Manning, full-back. The records of these three men, especially Cal and '4Lala , this year and years past, have hardly been equaled on the high school gridiron. In Prof. J ackson, U. F. A. has the best man vvho ever coached her teams. His presence Was of inestimable value to the school and team, and he Will have always the loyal devotion of U. F. A. men. I -69- Basket Ball The 1908 basket ball season was not entirely successful, owing, perhaps, to a lack of managerial push, and, therefore, a lack of games. . However, the team was good, the fellows worked hard, and those games which we played, we won, and that we did not become victorious in more contests is only unfortunate, and no discredit to the team. . a ' Base Ball y The prospects of the season of '08 was not favorable. Not many of the regulars were back, and it seemed, at first, as though U. F. A. would merely furnish some good practice games for other, and supposedly stronger oppenents. But far was it from such. Q H After. we had struck Hamilton College, 1-and held them down to no hits in six innings, base ball stocks took a big jump, and the next game was certainly a pleasing surprise. Syracuse came, backed up by a big representation, and also big scores, and went away- i A sadder and a wiser team. Essel pitched great ball. Colgate didhnot stay long enough to be beaten, the score being tied in thesikth. Hamilton Sophs. were easy, meeting defeat to the tune of 14 to 17. But Decoration Day, at Syracuse, was fatal. We attempted to play both Syracuse High School and the umpire, and naturally we were beaten. y In conclusion it is sufficient to say that the team has played a great year, and have made a record of which to be proud. . Track it The track team began work early, but the interest, or rather the lack of interest, on the part of the school was disheartening, however, notwithstanding this, -the year could have been con- siderably worse. In view of Manager Hughes' line schedule, Captain Rowe worked hard with the men, and the showing made was far from being consistant with the amount of support. ....'1Q............... , . At Syracuse, Colgate and Hamilton, We Were beaten fairly and squarelyq We offer- no excuses.. But out of these meets some 'real good Was obtained, in that track interest received an awakening, which is a good omen for next year, and, much to the credit of the team, it can be said that even if we were defeated, each contest was fought out With that true spirit, which more than victory or profit, is the real aim of athletics. 1 r p -CQW. 0.0, '10.

A., for from that date began the exis- tence of Epsilon Tau Pi. E. T. P. has always been local- its founders being of the opinion that a local society assures a firmer brotherhood. The Eps enjoyed a lonely existence until 1886, when Theta Phi entered the 'lists and began imme- diately to make its presence felt. Theta Phi now has over twenty-live chapters, placed in some of the best high schools and academies in the state. ln 1888 our first sorority sprang into blossom with theadvent of the Kappa Epsilon Society. Closely upon the skirts of HK. E. came V-.Delta Gamma, and both have grown until their chapters now form a network over Central and Northern New York., Both sororities have ever played a prominent part in our school history, and have always stood for the best sentiments in ,student life. Two of our fra- ternities-Phi Delta Sigma and ChiDelta+are comparatively young. It was not until 1900 ,that Phi iDelt Ayvasffounded, but in the space of seven years? it has advanced to such a stage that its chapters are extended over a greater range of if-territory than any other of our similar organizations. Chi Delta is but three years old. It is their sentiment to place chapters, and undoubtedly they will soon be as large as any Ufratn in school. All our fraternities are Alpha chapters, but their branches cover a big section of country, a fact whichappeals to us as meaning that their sentiments are of the highest and that their objects are in sympathy with school life the country o'er. -80- FR TER mas EPSILON TAU PI FRATERNITY EPSILCN TAU PI.

A e g ,917- ACADEMIC STAFF . ,Academic Observer A SCHQOL PEIPCI' OCC1lpies a unifglue position in' the world of journalismr It combines the. featuresof -the news. paper and the magazine of fiction.. lt-is the most perfect record of events in school life that the school in-which it is published can have. The school paper is 'thusof permanent literary and historical value. 5 The ACADEMIC OBSERVER is the studeritgpublication of the Utica- Free Academy, and in it the school should take- a par- donable pride. Already it is completing the twenty-first year, of its history, and always has the paper been of high standard. It was in January, 1886, that the first ,number of the ACADEMIC OBSERYER issued from the press. Edward Stephen O'Connor was the editor-ingchief during the first year of the paper 's existence, and to his efforts .is due in large ,part the success Which attended the first and ensuing year. His was the mind that planned, his the hands that executed. During that first year the paper was issued semifrnonthly, in order that the first volume of ten issues might be completed. r Since then the .paper has regularly appeared, -being. pub- lished monthly during the school year. Its influence 'upon Academy life cannot be over-estimated. -It can stir its readers to some Hsudden flood of mutiny or canrqueii a rebellious and insolent spirit. As has been' suggested, it is the best record of Academy life that can anywhere be procured. lt is also a true reflector of the literary ability of Academy students. All who have been connected with its .board of' editors will testify as to the valuable experience' it afforded. Some, illdf-ied, Of the former editors have entered the ranks of professional jour- nalists and have achieved no little reputation. In the pursuit of their profession the training they receive on the ACADEMIC OBSERVER has not come amiss. ' E A ,...Q9.. y LZfff The present 'year has witnessed some important changes in the ACADEMIC 0BsERvER.' The paper has been greatly en- larged and improved and is nowbeing sold in advance of its former price.- Under the 'present able and efficient manage- ment, a new standard has been set which compares favorably with that of any other school paper. The paper itself is more truly representative than ever before, and it may be conlidlentlv asserted that never before 'in itsuihistory has the paper been of more literary orghistorical value. It is then a true school paper.. W y c y V - , y l That it may continue to.improv'e as the years glide ong that it may always be worthy of the school which it 'representsig that length of years and every attendant prosperity may be accorded to it-this is the wish of every loyal student OE U.F.A. .p 1 sw ,,, -100- :fv'4x'n'?4' ' 'W ' W W r lslml I lewd Ng i e , gzhgffg N A little nonsense -now and then ' ls relished by ,the most of men, I Applied Mathematics, r My daughter, and his Voice was stern, y You must 'set thismatter right i What time didfthe Sophomore leave 7 ' Who sent. in his card last night?
