He has, on several occasions, represented Washington in oi-atorical con- tests. History of the Class of 1910 Ox the third Wednesday in September, 1906, there assembled in the old cliapel a number of boys and girls who were henceforth to be known as the Class of 1910. We were not long in getting together and electing class officers, Johnson being chosen president. The Sophomores tried to break np our meeting, but our class, the Freshman, having such a galaxy of men, smiled at their childish efforts and drove them out. This was but mere play. We then proceeded to elect officers ; this Freshman Class being the first to do so, set an examj)le which has lioen followed hj later classes. This noble institution has never had such a studious class as ours, and after the intermediate examinations our president, in commenting npon the work, took occasion especially to congratulate the Freshman Class on the showing it had made. In the eyes of onr fellow-students we were disgraced, and never again have we been the cause of such comment. On the eleven our class had five regular men and as many substitutes. We had four regular and three substitute men on the baseball team. Frciui the u i))le twenty-seven Freshmen, only twenty-two returned to renew their studies in the Sojihoniore year. There were, however, five newcomers, who brought us u]i to our old standard. As it is the duty of the Sojihomores to find material for the track team, we compilkd the Kv(shm(ii and Preps to bow down in huiid)le submission to our mighty ]iow( r. and licfore many days we had dcveloi ed sprinters and long- distance runners. Whin we felt that we had done our duty in this direction, we elected officers and decided to publish an annual. We knew this meant consider- able work, but then — wewere the Class of 1910. During this year we had six regular men on the football team, and were represented by four on the baseball team. These were always reflecting credit, not only on the class ))ut also on dear old Washington. In our Junior year nineteen of our class returned. Hayes, a newcomer, and Gibson, who decided to join us, brought the total up to twenty-one. During this year we surpassed our previous records in all branches of athletics. Onr great duty consisted in working zealonsly for onr annnal. Every member of the staff knuckled down to publish a book which would give much honor to our class and to the college. We cliil imt do jnrselves justice, liut remcinbei- that this was the first attempt in this line cjf wni ' k. and look to our follciwcrs to make u|i that in which we were deficient. This hriniis ns n|) to oiiv Senior year, the most difficult at collcfic. At our first class meeting L. 1{. Langsdale was elected president. We set to worlv with the determination and the ])ei-se ' ei ' ance which are sure to win, ami which are so characteristic of our class. We ha ' e maintained throughout this year a greater degree of efficiency in athletiis than (■ cr hefore. I have Ik ard some say — ami 1 fully agree with them — that this is the most congenial, most ln ' otlierly-like, most intimate class that oui ' Alma .Mater has fostered and nnrtnre(l. lLisT )i;i.v. . 10. Prophecy of the Class of 1910 I HAD been oiit of this country since the week after I graduated from col- lege, being a foreign agent for Henizerling Eros., banking establishment. I had left the London office in such shape that I thought I could come back to America for a while and see how things looked, for although I have been abroad for nearly fifteen years I have always considered myself an American. I stej ped out from Broadstreet Station in Philadelphia and proceeded xvp to The Walton. I registered, and stood for a moment looking over the register. A familiar signature caught my eye — Edw. C. Crouch, Alaska. That was queer ; however, I went up to see him. I found that he had been doing a big job of engineering up there and, like myself, had come down to see what the country looked like. We talked and smoked for a while and then w ent down to dinner. That done we went for a stroll. Going down Broadway we saw a rather portly and flashily dressed man get out of an automobile and stand for a moment looking in our direction. There was something familiar about him in spite of the bald head and portly dimensions. In a moment Etiek and I both yelled Peejee ! Then he recognized us. Hullo, boys. Glad to see you. Then followed some small talk, after which b - said, Come in and see my establishment. It ' s just around the block. We followed him into a sort of marble palace. Above the doorway was inscribed: J. P. Johnson — Stock Broker. Once inside we saw a maze of green tables, roulette wheels, and excited men and women. That sign is just to get around the law and make the police have an easy conscience, said Peejee. At one table we saw Johnny Hessey looking wild, excited and, truth to tell, rather seedy. He didn ' t look very changed. Johnny is an awfully good sucker, said Peejee with a chuckle. Want to play ? We declined after sizing up our chances and, as Peejee seemed occupied with a rather florid-looking lady, took occasion to leave. We returned to the hotel, and going through the lobby encountered Leo Brown, who had just finished lunch. He was looking rather grey, but other- wise was the same old Leo of 1910. After a hearty greeting we sat down and began to cbat. We asked what lie was doing. He began to laugh and asked if we had heard almiir if. About whatr we (iuerie(l. About the Ruskin Bright Wai ' reii P.ankruptcy Case, he replied. I ' m the state ' s attorney in this village and (-(jurt convenes at three o ' clock. After a little thought, lie (•(lut iuncd, ' ■Rnskin must have talien it hard, for he sneaked away and all trace (if him was lost. But old sleuth Massey located him all right, jieeling tomatoes with the other Bohics in Langsdale ' s cannery. Then we asked hciw Langsdale was getting along. Oh, pretty well. lie ' s (piit di ' iidviug, and married. Married Recda Stoops, and they seemed tn be lia iiig a luckydncky time of it when 1 saw them last. But I tmderstand the a]i]ib ' nf liscerd entered at the same time as the kid. Eeeda wanted him named Rnskin. and C ' orty insisted u]hih Anheuser Busch. It ' s live years old now and as yet has no name. ' We gave our regards to Airs. Rrown (a former belle of C ' bi ' stertown ) and then went out to see the fimtl game (jf the world championshi|) series between the Athletics and Pittsburg. We got a good seat and in looking over the Athletics ' onttield. saw a spidery-looking object in center fi (d l. A high fly was knocked to him, wbi(di be gathered in, gracefully throwing the rnnner out at home. We heard the grandstand shouting Jumji! Jump! ' Phcn we knew it was the Kid. In the ninth iiniiiig. with two out. the bases empty, aH l the score 2 to .3 in the Athletics ' fa iir, the Pittsburg second-baseman drove ii bard ground- ball intij center: it went straight tlirongb .lump ' s legs. A groan went np from the bleachers, for it lookeil g 1 for a b..me run. But the Kid sjirinted. got the ball and lined it to the catidier. who nabbeil tbi ' runner in the nick of time. It was a beautiful throw and the fans neai ' ly went crazy. After supjier we went out to the theatre. It -svas a vaudeville show. A man in a grotesque evening suit came out and began to sing. I ])idee-i-dee- i-da! and then he forgot the rest. We were in a box near the stage, and when the singer hesitated I involuntarily gave him the cue. Xot until afterwards did I realize that it was -lim Turner singing, and thai T bad been so used to prompting him in the (Ib ' c ( ' lidi at college, that it had become a soi-t of a second nature with me. The andidice tbongbt it was part .d ' the show and a])plan(led wildly. A pool- comeilian was ne.xt, who tried in vain to amuse the audience by making himself ridiculous. Etick nii(lge(l me. ' ■That looks like Soc. And so it was ! He was hissed off the stage. 29 The next day being Siindav we decided to remain at the hutel, l)iit ghineing at a pajser, we saw where The Great Evangelist wonld preach in Philadelphia. Let ' s go ! said Etick. So we went to hear him, and it was Johnny Knotts. We went to him after service and congratulated him. When he saw ns he dropped his clerical dignity, winked his eye and led ns into a small room. There he pulled out a bottle of the rale old shtuff, as he termed it, and invited us to drink. We drank to his success and left him, giving sjiiritual comfort to a group of old women. Etick proposed that we take the train down and see the College. Accord- ingly we got aboard, and after having secured our parlor-car seats we made ourselves comfortable. The conductor, an old grey-headed man with several stripes, came down the aisle and pimched our tickets. It was his impressive way of talking that made us take a second look at him. It was Gibson. We shook hands, but he seemed to be in a hurry and went on. When we got on the Chestertown Accommodation, the same old jerkwater as in our college days, we ambled .slowly on toward our destination. Finally we reached a little station called Massey. Here, standing with the other loafers, was Maddox. It was unmistakably Maddox, for all the weeks ' growth of beard and seedy clothes. We got out and spoke to him. He took a rusty nail, which served as a toothpick, from his mouth and began his tale of woe. He ended up with the tragic whisper, Say, got any tobacco ? We each gave him a box of cigarettes and hopped aboard the train. Ar- riving at Chestertown we immediately proceeded to my home for the night. Everybody seemed glad to see us, as of course they should, and after spending the evening relating our experiences, we turned in. The next morning we went over to see the College. There were several new buildings, but Smith Hall was still the recitation hall. In the corridor coming out of D r. Sanborn ' s room we met Miss Clough. She did not seem to be so light-hearted as in years gone by, and she had aged considerably. She did not seem especially glad to see us, but in the course of the conversation we found out that she was studying for her Ph. D. in Philos- ophy. We left her and went over to lunch.

It did not take us L.iug to become acquainted, for we were few in numbers. The first few weeks of that year are dark pages in our history, for then the much-dreaded Sopho- mores held nightly cross-country runs — fm ' their amusement and our sorrow, ioreover, if they wished any errand done, why, the ]ii)or Freshmen ilid it. Our oppressors took special delight — it seemed to us — in having midnight f( asts, for which we had to make the necessary jjreparations. We held our first class meeting early in October and elected Durding ]U ' isid(nr. !)( spite the rigid iliscipline of the Sophomores and the long lessons assigned i y ciiir instructors, the year passed quickly. During Commencement Week a ft lbi v-classnuite won the first honor in the Declamation Contest. A feeling of infinite pride and responsibility now filled us at the thought that we were no longer the submissive Freshman, ))ur the cmnnianding Sophomore. Returning to college the following September, we immediately organized our forces in order to execute properly the duty of the Sophomore, namely, to bring u]) the Freshmen and Preps in the p)roper manner. In glancing over our roll we fcjund that four of our members were town students, and could not assist in disciplining the Freshies : two were girls — we decided not to ask for their aid — and two were newcomers and ineligible to disci]3line until they had been through the mill. So we — the ever-dreaded Sophomores — had only eight men for acti -e duty. However, many Freshmen were led into the right liatli by our small band. It was during this year that an incident occurred which still reflects dis- credit upon the Senior class of that year. For some prejudice or other, certain Seniors saw fit to agitate the new students and arouse in them a strong feeling of contempt for the Sophomore Class. With the appro ' al of certain worthy Seniors, the Pre]is sent our president an order to appear at the athletic field gate at 11 ]). m. Of course we ignored it; but al)out ]1:.30 p. m. our hall was in -a(lid and an attenqit made to carry olf our president. However, he was whisked oft ' to a place of safety, and we — a band of four — faced the music. One of the professors appeared upon the scene and quelled the disorder. The im-adi rs always claimed the victory — but it seems to me (if I be permitted to advaiire an opinion ) that for twenty-odd men to overwhelm four — well, ' nutf sed. 40 Wc have iiovpr been very active in athletics — having only one man on the basc1)all team, Init we have a reputation for earnest and persistent worli. We have .some fair writers, but it is in oratory that the Class of 1911 excels. We always have representatives in the oratorical contests, who never fail to do credit to the class, and in onr respective societies it is only necessary to ulance over the records to learn what we have clone, and are still doing. When we returned to the home of the Maroon and Black last Sejitember, only thirteen of the sixteen members of last year answered to roll call. Juniors! jolly, studious Juniors I This year has not been all pleasure for us. We are crowded with required work, besides having taken upon ourselves the arduoxis task of publishing the Pegasus and presenting a comedy — but by persevering, we ho])e to come through with flying colors. Esj)ecially has the editorial staff of the Peoasts had a difficult task. On March 1st scarlet fever was discovered in Xormal Hall and immediately the ]! ornial Department was closed and the girls sent home. This greatly inconvenienced the editors, but, when on March 13th, the fever broke out among the male students and the college closed, things looked black for the Pegasus. Although college will not re-o])en until A])ril 11th, and although we have been disappointed time after time, wi- boiic and believe that our efforts have not liecn in vain, but that our Pegasis will be a credit to the Class of I ' .m. This year we have (|uite a number of men in the tennis club, and one on the baseball team. We are all slowly Imt surely edging our waj ' to the tSenior Class, and, if nothing happens t: ])i-cv( nt, next year our class will be the lucky thirteen.

Oh, those first two months were terrible ones indeed! We were young, iiiuiiccut and unused to college life. As Preps we were treated from the very beginning until the very end of the selindl year, but we bravely endured all the discomforts and hardships, peculiar ciuly to the existence of a Prep, imposed upon us. Tn Sei)t( udicr. IKOS, after a must jilcasant vacation, we rcassemble l. Some of our old cla.ssmates did not return, liut otlicrs entered to go U with us through the maze of Latin, Science and Math. Holding the humble position of Freshmen, ucithing but perfect obedience to the Sophomores was expected of us. However, dur first class meeting was successfully held in William Smith Hall and we siifi ' ered nothing worse than a few curious and threatening glances from se ' ral )i]iper -lassmen. At this class meeting F. Stanley Porter was elected president. Resuming our studies again, we worked incessantly. Our work this year was new to us and although in some ways more ditfieult. it was fur the most 13art j)ractical, and consequently more interesting. We were well re]iresented in athletics, and in licith baseball and football the representatives of the Class of 1912 came to the fr(Jiit and did great work. Again we met on the campus in September, 1909, and this time as gay old Sophomores. Some of the familiar faces of the former year were missing, but new ones have come in to take their places. As Sophomores, we were holding sway su]iri ' nie over jxior, homesick Fresh- men when a terrible calamity befell u.s — the outcome of whirh was that all hazing at Washington College was abolkshed. Herman W. Krantz, at the first class im ctiug held, was elected president. On account of illness, he was com]ielle(l to leave college at the Ix ginning of the secon l term. Our ]iresident ' s misfortune was k( nly felt liy all of his (dass- mates. In our academic work throughout the y( ai we have lieen tlmronghly inter- ested and we have endeavored to carry on onr scliolastie duties in a manner 46 most pleasing and satisfactory to o iv instructors. This year lias, indeed, been a very enjoyable and profitable one. On Hallowe ' en Eve the Soph banner waved from the flagstaff over Middle Hall. In the athletic department we have done our usual good woi ' k. Our representatives on the gridiron did uiuch to liring to a close a most su ' cessful football season for Washinglon College. At the end of the season of litOi), Porter was elected captain for I ' .UO. For baseball this spring, we have several very promising ])layers. There are n numlier id ' e -ents that have jiurposely been omitted for various reasons. And, too, in the jili-asure of chronicling these events, however important and interesting they may be, the thread of one ' s verbosity is likely to be drawn out finer than the sta]ile (d one ' s historical fmid. Our Sophomore year is aluKJSt gone and Jinie is r;i|iidly approacdiing. Soon we will be ready to leave for honu — there to recuix-rate and pi-e])are for the arduous duties of our next year — the Junior. HiSTOKIAM. ' 12.

WALLER History of the Class of 1913 TIIE asi)iraiit historian finds his duties are as maiiifohl as any other phase of talent, and even more so does the historian become puzzled in attempting to give the records of the Class of 1913. When he makes an effort to accomplish such a difficult task he discovers that there appeals to him what may be termed a due sense of logical reasoning, vs hich adequately decides for him that he is wholly incompetent to give the different phases of his subject a proper arrangement, and it is in keeping with this idea of common defection that this history is offered. In the year 1907 there came to Washington College a bunch of unex- perienced youngsters, who were destined to become industrious girls and boys. This motley bunch was composed of eleven in number. After running many errands and doing everything they were asked to do by the upper classmen of the college, their first year at this institution was completed. The next September brought eight of the old bunch back to W. C, three having withdravsm. But in spite of this loss of old classmates, there came to take their places fourteen eager-looking lads. During this year many of the new and some of the old lads of the class distingiiished themselves in the different athletic sports, especially in football. Among these was Jack, the quarterback of the first team, and Dad, the e er-eharging fullback wonder. With Freck, Shad, Sim, Eed, Kel, Stouf, Herb, Pinks, and Slew-foot Olie we were able to muster easily some faithful reserves in the substituting line. Then when spring dawned, we were well represented in the track squad by five reliable men — Perry, Isaac, Benj, Fras, and Eeverend Con. Then shortly our class delegation appeared in baseball costumes. Some of these, Noonan, Kelly, Mortan and Coulbourn, after being given a fair show, made the first team. At the end of the season the records of these stood as high for all-i-ound ]ilaying as did those of the other, jilayers on the team. After a summer vacation we returned to college, but though a few of our old prep-mates did not return, we found among us fourteen new and smiling faces. One day in the latter jjart of Se]itember we held our first class meeting and elected Stouffer president. As football season was now at hand there were five men from our number who found positions with the eleven, Noonan and Meegan holding the same places as they did the previous year. Throughout the football season our class representatives gave hearty support to the team. Our Thanksgiving and ( ' hristnias licilidays sdmi passed; then sjiring canie and fonnd us already aspiring for positions on the track and haseball teams. We have as our representatives on this year ' s track team six able runners, several of these participating in ont-of-to ' wn meets. As our class has two players of last year ' s nine and some promising material, we are sure to lie stronger in our baseball representation than in the past. On the opening of the second term two new members jdined our class, making a total of thirty-three. May the members of the Class of 1913 realize that our bonds of friendship are becoming more dear aud more closely related to Washington, and with one and only one uniim may our class show itself a united body — inseparably loyal and true.

We were then a jolly, imh ' iicii.h nt set of ■■Prejis generally ilnlibeil liy tho Seniors as ' fusty. I ' n.liaMy wc were, according to the opinion if those dignities, but we heartily )ielie ((l in the ui.itto.

Why. 1 do not know, as they never would admit that they were eu ious. There we re a few pranks ])layed cm ns during that nieuKa-able first year. hut they were very few and we were rather grateful for them, as they ottered some suggestion for our raids when we shouhl hecnme Jolly Junior Normals. We were a very ])r( cneious tdass. Our intellects were wonderf nl ( — esjiecially in Geometry. .Vt the end of the first month such marks as K!, 20, 35, 4l ' , and the like ap])eare(l i,n nnr i ' e] orts. together with a little footnote. How well we remendier those awful struggles and liattles with straight lines, curve l lines and broken lin( s all combined to unike crooked tempers, and even now some of us trendjle when Geometry — iliss Monk — Roimi 101 is mentioned. The year passed ipiickly. the vacatien more (piickly, and the antnuni of our second year foimd us back at formal Hall — determined to iId the Pre]is or die. ( Vou may olisei- -e that we are ' ery much alive.) The ] r. little things; my heart ached for them (sometimes). 1 know there isn ' t any fun in g iug to your room and finding all your possessions stutfed in the closet, except your very bpst dress, which gracefully adorns a pillow sitting in the corner of the room to welcome you home; and had we ha l a girl ' s track team, those Preps would certainly have won hdunrs. foi- tlie way they could run the gauntlet down Paradise Alley was wonderfid. We can now loek back with c(ini]ilacency and remember the ]n ' oud ami haughty manner in which we went ai ' ound as Junior Xornuils. With what an aii ' we ordi ' red the Pre]is de this. do that. and it certaiidy is amusing to think that the now hd ' ty and dignitied( ?) Junior ISTornials were once Imt the creatures of our will. We were very mn(di gi ' ie ed to find tha t several of mir worthy idass had decided to desert us. IIow we did miss TIaymau ' s musical laugh, Ahern ' s ghost stories and the squeaky notes of Morris i(ilin ! We were soon consoled, how- ever, b}- the addition of three new mend.iers — Gray, Greenlee, and Smyth. Gray came to us from Charles County and is a typical Southerner. We have great fun laughing at some of her expressions, such as Go ' long, now, Sure nuf and My Johnnie. She has the reputation of being the most absent- minded girl in our class, but this has been partly accounted for lately, as she has been found spending most of her time in her window watching a Dancing Eay on the opposite side of the avenue. Greenlee came from Caroline, Avhere they raise cow]ieas, and is a big, jolly, fun-lo-viug girl. She proved a valuable addition to our class basket-ball team, for woe be unto anyone who should get in her way ! Smyth is a down-town girl. She didn ' t seem to enjoy her daily walk to college at first, but now she says she wouldn ' t miss it for anything. We wonder why ? After we had started the Preps in the straight and narrow ]iath, we settled down to work and elected our class officers. The year passed peacefully and pleasantly enough until we began to have tests in English in the spring to see whether or not we were qualified to teach. Terrible were the marks and more terrible the lectures, and though we all finally got through we often wonder if the Faculty consider us qualified to teach English. Summer wanes and the sixteenth of September finds us back within the walls of our future Alma Mater, serene and dignified, no longer under-classmen, but Senior Normals — quantity sufficient and quality superfine. We elected our officers, making Greenlee president; and a good one she has proven, too, and although she has become greatly interested in English lately, she never shirks her duty as class president and her ]iersistent efforts have lirought us through many trial ' s. June is almost here, and we look forward with a feeling of sorrow when we know that we are to leave this dear place, that in June we will be frec — what a misuse of the word free ! — new life s])rings into our being. We have lived here as a class three years — short years they have seemed, and ]ileasant. We have had to fight battles — yes, even great battles with Geometry, English and Psychology — but no other years will seem so enjoyable and now — they must enil. Yet the nieniory of them will remain with us alway and may we ever be true t .) the olive and gold of the Class of 1910-N. HlSTOEIAX. ' 10-N. Prophecy of the Class 1910-N OXE warm day in Jniu ' , witli 1 k in band, I liad stuleu dtt ' to the rix ' cr shore to lie in the shade of tlie wiUow tree and listen to the mnrunir of the tossing waves. The i ' i ' er looked so inviting; its waters ■!( ar as crystal and rippling gently on towards the sea, she seemed to lie lieckoniiiij ' wilh outstretched hands to me to join her in her course. I espied a canoe, which had drifted on the shore nearliy. Surely fate was with me. So casting rules and regidatious to the wind, I juni|ieil into the frail craft, ])ushing it well out in the stream. Floating with the current, I began to dream of the future, but was ar(insi(l from my reverie by a sudden falling sensation; the lioat uuheedeil had shot over the falls anil I was tloun dcring in the water. At first I gasped for lireath, then it was all dark ami I was going to sleep on a bed of roses. Awakeiang, I found myself at the l)ottom of the river on a beautiful isle which was co -ered with narcissus. In the centri- of this fairy-like land was an ivoi ' v throne on wdiieh sat J eptnne, his tri l( ' nt out- stretched, and smiling he said, .Vs you have tumbled into my kingdom I ' ll ])nt you in Prometheus ' care, foi ' I know you must be seeking a glimpse of the fiitiiri ' , ' Beckoning me to a])pi-oiicli, Prometheus said, You cannot look into the future as I can. so look through these glasses and you will see the future of your classmates. T obey, and the first scene to greet my eyes is a brilliantly lighted ball- room. The dancing is just starting. Who is the graceful pair wdio seem to be the centre of all interest ? There seems to be something familiar in the poise of the head of the fair blonde. Why, it is none other than Vi -ian L. Thomas, the best dancer at college. The seems shift from o])era to banipu ' t and to all social functions always with ' i ian as the hading figure. That is right, ' ivian. I knew a life of gayety and pleasure would lie yours, for every time you returned to college (never on time) we were entertained until :1 A. 1. wdth an account of this or that (hnu-e. wdii(di ended with the deseri]ition (d ' your latest captive, of wdiom yon always saiil, I could most love him to death, girls, and probably send back his frat. pin the next lay. The picture suddenly elianges and I see Vivian as the wife of ;i distinguished Professor of Psyidiology in one of our large Southern nuixcrsities. A ' ill wonders never cease! I su|i]i(ise vim must have tired of being a society butterfiy and are going to take uj again yotir fa- -orite study — Psychology. 65 A Woman Suffrage Coiiventicm ! What a change of scenes ! The woman whose speech is making such a hit is S. Grace Greenlee. Her life is devoted to the cause of Woman ' s Rights and mostly spent in the West working for its interests. A certain hen-pecked hushand rises in the audience and says, Lord, help us, if the women get any more rights. As it is I wash the dishes ; next I ' ll have to do the family wash, I suppose. I know you ' ll he successful, Grace, for I remember your powers of reason- ing and i ersuasion, and if you impress the public as you did the Profs at college your cause is won. Your little motto — Always make a good impres- sion — has proved useful in other places than the class room. Next I see a model district school, with, Martha R. Pennington as its teacher. No other proof of her success is needed than a glance at the bright, happy faces of her scholars. The scenes shift to a vine-covered cottage by the sea. Ah! I see the auburn-haired lassie of 1910 has proiited by her course in School Management and has attained the Ideal School, that of one teacher and one pupil. Good luck. ] Iartha ; love in a cottage just suits you. What is this sign I see in the window of a fashionable aj-iartment in the city of New York — Anna B. Smyth, M. D. Office hours— 9 to 10..30 A. M.— 2 to 3.. ' 50 P. M. Is this the Anna Smyth of the Class of 1910? Some one is coming out of the office, es, it is the same Anna ; she steps into her auto and is whirled off to one of her iiatients. This reminds me of the words of one of the Seniors when Anna was a Pre]i : That girl will be a success ; whatever she attem]rts she does well. And indeed this may l)e well said, for Anna is now a i)rominent physician with a large practice. I see Ethel Ringgold as the wife of a Methodist minister. Well, I ' m not surprised, for I remember how conscientious Ethel was at college about reciting all her lessons. Ethel is beloved by the poor, for she is very liberal to them and never too tired to wait upon the sick or read to the blind or aged. You are surely engaged in a noble work an l arc fulfilling your mission admirably. This little band of ten lassies could not be completed without one musician, and the one taking this part is the noted pianist, Mary TI. Sparks. After playing in all the large cities in America, she goes abroad, where she is received with great favor. She is asked to play for the Kaiser of Germany, but refuses, saying, In that country there is Psychology in the very air; at least there ' s where our instructor learned so much, and I have enough of it.

So, although the long- liKikcd-for inspiration has not yet arrived, we shall proceed with the one request, however: that if you are boreil, ])lease do not say so. We are still here — that is, some of us arc ; and for those who have dropped out — well, our deepest regret for those who Ivayq missed the fun. Yes, we ha ' e a history. Certainly if The Old Womau Who Lived in the Shoe could have a historj ' , not to mention the sad history of The Oysters and the Carpenter, the Class of IDll-K ' should have one. As it is impossible to enumerate all the little happenings that have gradually been moulded into Class history of Prep years, and as your humble scribe wishes to be able to stay safely iu Normal Hall after writing this epistle, we shall only give a few points in regard to our Junior year. Remember, kind reader (we hope you will be kind), we do not take for our motto one that is found on old sun-dials, I Only Mark the Hours that Shine. We shall endeavor to show both the glad days and the sad days. Now for the real part — wonderful accoanplishnients. One daj ' will alwaj ' s lie fresh in onr memories — the day we went to Carvel House. It was a delightful walk and was certainly very much enjoyed by all. Sad to say, judging from our appearance after the two-mile walk, there was no danger of any one being mistaken for the dainty Dolly Manners. A most important fact in regard to the Chronicles of 1911 is found in having one of the best football players a member of our class. Indeed, we are very p)roud of our Junior Normal, as he is styled by one of his devoted classmates. , ni_ither remarkable feat that has proved the wonderful stunts (lur Jnuior Normal can perform was accomplished when he rode on a l)icycle t(i the depot at Westminster without haviug hold of the handle bars. Is it necessary to explain about the impediments that prevented him from riding as a student at Washington College shoiild f Our class is especially brilliant — brilliant as to our countenances when certain embarrassing questions are asked. But we are not at all brilliant in mathematics, for our mathematical nonsense would surely scare most any one into sj)asnis unheard of before. 72 One tliiiii ' is wdi ' ryiiiii ' this cl iss vit iniicli — will we ik ' xI ycnv be aMf to kiM ' ]i ii|i tlic Siiiior X(ii ' in;il iv|iiiliil iini Fdf c-luiriiiin - mlci-hi iiiiiiciits Ve shiill crrlaiiily try tn Ju sd when llic time couii ' s for the Senior Xoriiials to play the roll- ..f linstoss.

THOMPSON Football THE footliall season opened last fall with the best prospects we have had in years. There were ten of the old team back, leaving only one position to be filled, and as captain we had Turner, the star halfback, a man wh(i nut only could play a good game himself, but who knew how to get the best work out of his men. Manager Brown gave us the best schedule that we have ever had, having games with such teams as Georgetown, George Wash- ington, Maryland Aggies, Western Maryland and Delaware. Our first game was with Baltimore City College, but they cancelled, owing to lack of preparation. Coach Thompson was very glad of this, as he wished more time in which to prepare his team for the hard game the following week with Georgeto-wn. The game was a great surprise to everyone, for we did far better against them than could be expected — they winning from us by the narro v margin of one point. Then followed the George Washington game ■nid this was another surprise, as we scored a touchdown against them in less than five minutes after the game had started. Only for the wonderful playing and running of Morse, the George Washington quarterback, the game would have been ours easily, but he scored a touchdown by brilliant running and a few minutes clinched the game by kicking a field goal. The game with Gallaudet the following week was a walkover, we winning from them by the large score of 54 to 0. We lost the Western Maryland game 12 to 5, but — well, we do not care to discuss that game. For the first time in years we defeated Delaware College, and the game — although the score does not- show it — was a good one from start to finish. The game with Rock Hill was also better than the score would indicate, but our goal was never in danger and our o]i])onents were so much outweighed that they were forced to kick at all times. Our game with the Maryland Aggies was cancelled on account of scarlet fever at M. A. C. We can say very little about the stars of the team, because every man lilayed such a good game that all looked like stars, biit Jump by his remarkable speed showed himself a classy i erformer in carrying the ball on the famous forward pass invented by Coach Thompson. The remarkable success of the team last fall was undoubtedly due to the faithful and expert coaching of Mr. Thompson and in no small way to the faithful work of that team which bears all the knocks and gets none of the glory — the Scrubs.

Thompson nothino- whatever was done in track athletics, an l the students sadly felt rhe need of something to fill ii]i the s])ace between football and baseball, as no interest is taken in basket-ball. Mi ' . Tliomiison tilled in this time vcvy well bv sending men to the various winter games and, although we only won a place once last year, we arc certain to do better this season. Jnni]], the great little athlete, is ca])tain id ' the team and should make an al)le leader. Last year the regular annual track meet that was inangurateil in l ' .)(i7 was held, and there were a good number of con- testants from all the athletic clubs in Alarylaml and District of Columbia besides a few from (Jther states. This year Coach Thompson intends making this meet one of the leading features of Commencement week. The relay team for this season is composed of Jump, Knotts, Turner, Connelly and Baid)y. Though they lost to il. A. C. at Convention Hall in Washington, it was largely due to lack of exjiericnce, and we feel sure that they will redeem themselves in June when they run 1. A. V. again. The following week the same men were enterecl in individual events at the Fifth Regiment and Hopkins Meet in Baltimore. Although Jninp was the oidy one to win a place, if the track had not been so crowded Turner would surely have won a place in both the 100-yard and 220-yard events — he falling in both when about twentj ' yards from the finish. The relay team will go to Pennsylvania on the 30th of April to run in their great carnival, and we expect them to get a place to say the least. After that comes the great meet in J uue, when every one will have a chance for revenge for former defeats, so let ' s get together and -work for the track team and make that meet a greater success than ever before. Crack Ceam J. L. BURRIS O. H. CONNELLY W. W. JUMP J. P. KNOTTS J. C. Tl ' RNKR. Jr. CapTjUK W . Waukicn Jump THE pi-osjieets fm ' l):iscl):ill never looked brighter than they do for this year. With the e. ee])tii)ii of -lolms, T ' niitt, and ilorton, the team is intact and, with the wcalrli of now uiatei ' ial fliat has reported to practice, men can certainly be piekecl to till llicii- slmes. As eaptain we have Cross, the best college catcher in Maryland, and a man who is not only well liked by all of the plaj-ers, bnt one who commands their respect and who is sure to get all there is out of them. Of course with like Thompson coaching, that depart- ment is in the best of hands and needs no comment. Coulbourne is looked upon as the mainstay of the pitching staff, and he, aided by Baden and Metcalfe, who performed very ereditaltly last year, .should certainly hold up their part of the team. The only intielder lost from last year ' s team is third baseman Pruitt, and his place seems ably tillcMl by Wallace, accounted last season as one of the best third basemen on the Kastern Shore. The outfield, composed of Jiunp, Turner, and Porter, is the same as last year and should make a fine showing, as all three are good hitters, fine fielders and great hase runners. Manager Crouch has worked faithfully on the schedule and it certainly is one of which to be proud, as we have games with a great many of the important institutions of the Korth Ijesides the games in Maryland and District of Columbia. 91 iBasEtiall Ccam OFFICEHS W.

Vernon Literiii-v Scicicty is (jnc nf the (ildest in tlio State, and, in fact, in the United States, being funnded in 1847. As the original records have been lost very little is known of its earl}- development ; however, the mere fact of its existence through so many years, during all the vicissitudes and troubles of the College, proclaims its strength and its solid foundation. Previous to the present era of the College ' s i rosperity, the society, feeling the great need and realizing the advantages, purchased a library, which, while small, was of incalculable value to its members. This library later was presented to the College and forms the nucleus nf the present library. As in all organizations, friction and trouble arose some years ago. A part of the members withdrew, owing to the result of an election, and furmed anothei- society which culminated in the Adelphia literary Society. Among the many milestones, by which we are to mark the advance of Mt. Vernon and the signs by which we are to judge of its status in the literary world, perhaps none are more signiticant than the debale, in 1S!)7, with the Bancroft Literary Society, then the recognized State champions. Mt. X ' ernon emerged the vict(jr fmm the contest, tiiereby proving herself worthy of the honor and respect of all. Our regular meetings are hcbl in William Smith Flail e -ery Saturday evening. The literary programs consist of declamations, impromptu speeches and debates. One meeting each tei-m is devoted to parliamentary debate. We have forty-three active members this year, and on the Mt. Vernon alumni roll will ln ' found the names of many prominent men. In recent years a movement has been on foot to erect a ilt. Vernon Home. It is up to us, fellow Mt. Vernons, ju ' esent and past, to put our shoulders to the wheel and strive until we bring this movement to a successful termination. Let us not forget our old motto: Wie die Arbeit, so der Lohii. ' The society derived its name from the birth])lace of Washington, and each year holds exercises on February 22d, in commemoration of his birth, ter- minating at night in a Mt. Vernon reunion and banquet. Men both within and without the State join hands and hearts in wishing her a successful future, and unite in one accord with, Three cheers for ilt. Vernon, and a new Mt.

TIIGHT Pieria Literary Society THE Pieria Literary Society was (irgaiiiz(Ml liy the young women of the College in 1894. Beginning in a rather small way, being composed of the few women students of the College, under the presidency of Miss Mary L. (Matthews) Jones, its membership was greatly increased by the establishing of the Normal Department at Washington College in IS ' Jii. Since that date the membership, as well as interest in the work, has steadily increased. The object (if this sdciety is to givi its members literary training, ease of manner and familiarity with the decorum necessary to be observed in meetings and societies. The meetings are held weekly in Xorraal Hall and consist of the regular business of the society and a literary ] r(ii;raiii. The literary exercises consist of select readings, declamations, inqn ' nmptii s]ieeches, essays, music, editorial writing and debate. During each term one night is given to an open meeting, when all the students and friends of the society are invited to attend. During the second term, in June, the anniversary of the Pieria Literary Society is held. This is a large reception at which the society receives former members of Pieria, alumni, students and the ' isitors of Commencement week. The reception is much looked forward to, for then it is that we entertain our fdrmev membci ' s and endeavor to show them that we ha -e the same interest in the welfare and progress of Pieria that thev had.

Previous to that date two such organizations existed at the College; namely, the Mt. Vernon and the Philamatheon. For a period tlu ' Phila- matheon Society flourished but later declined, and in 1900 disbanded. A year later some of the students, feeling a need of a similar organization, called a meeting and organized the Adelphia Literary Society. The following officers were elected : D. G. Anderson, president ; A. S. Walls, vice-president ; H. S. Porter, recording secretary; E. A. Howard, corresponding secretary; H. 0. Stevens, treasurer; G. jNL Merriken, chaplain; W. A. Mudd, sergeant- at-arms; E. Rosser, critic. These men laid the foundation for what was destined to be a great aid to the institution. This foundation was so solidly built that it has withstood every attack and is growing firmer as time goes on. Although comparatively young, it ranks as one of the leading societies at this College. Through many trials we have calmly borne our part, and we have reached the highest pinnacle of ])erfection. Proudly do we now see our ex- members standing in the front rank of success. Each year sees the nundier of ex and honorary mendiers increase and with them the glories of old Adeljibia. Our regular meetings are held every Saturday evening in William Smith Hall. They are characterized by impromptu speeches, declamations, select read- ings, a paper and a debate. The impromptus consist of topics of all classes, especially newspaper articles. The declamations are selected with care and are spoken with much zeal and force. Great care and skill are required in selecting the subjects for debate. These are weighty and vohiminous and require diligent research in their preparation. The Adelphia Moonheam, a lively paper edited weekly by the society, contains all the humorous matter on the TTill. One meeting a year is devoted entirely to parliauientarv deliarc. Sulijects of vital interest are discussed and these meetings are designed to give the student practice in parliamentary law. During the first term an open meeting is held. It is a literary treat enjoyed by the faculty, students and friends of the society. The ]3rogram con- sists of a modified form of our weekly meetings. A reception is given during the second term. This is especially good, for, besides having the students and fac- ulty, many old friends and members return for the occasion. During Commence- ment week a private banquet is held. All ex and honorary members are invited. At present our society numbers thirty-seven active members and it is in the best condition since its foundation. The members of this society have its interest at heart and work zealously for its welfare. We desire that such success be continued, and we pledge ourselves to uphold these interests which bring so many good results. aDclpt)iii Literary Society Motto: FriL ' de cinaliit, uiifii Colors: Olive and (i (Fomideil IIIOI ) OFFICEKS FAJX TEIiXr J.

Candy Kid made the following report: We proceeded directly to Mr. Bell ' s orchard and secured four pitchers and three buckets of cider. As we started back we were attacked by Mr. Bell ' s dogs. I drowned one in a bucket of cider, but in the meantime another had torn my trousers nearly off and lacerated my thigh. To make matters worse, Mr. Bell appeared in the distance and com- menced firing upon us. We then took to our heels. Father ' s hand was bitten. Pet came into violent contact with a barbed wire fence and left a portion of his nose on a barb. Cowboy fell into the hands of the Sophs and when last seen was heading for Morgan Creek ' Bridge.
