T ' pon reaching the stens leading from the street to the terrace the cadet escort stood in split ranks and the procession entered the hall marching be- tween these. Within, the Delegates were seated in the block south of the platform until they were called to the .stage for formal intro- duction.

F ' riday nijrht was g ven up to reunions of the (Jreek letter fraternities. An ener- getic committee of which Walter II. South was ' hairinan, T. J. Arthur, secretary, and Fred ( ' . Flenniken. treasurer, did mast ef feetive work in planning for what they called a Pan-Hellenic reunion at the inau- guration. They coiunienced upon their campaign early in the year, and working with luiblieity conunittees in all the larger towns of the state, they did much to arouse the old students to an interest in the great and important reunion events at their .Vlma .Mater. l-Voin H to 8 p. m. on Friday each chapter had its dinner party an l its reunion. At 8 the parade was t ' ormed under the command of Jos. K. liuchanan. ' hief iiuirshal. and marched through the I rincipal streets of the town and to the President ' s TToiise. Tlie fraternities fell in line, in the order deternuned by the date of their establishment in the Fniversitx ' . The parade was uui(|ue and spectai ' ular and numbered not less than • )00 men. On their arrival at the Presiiieut ' s House a call was made for President Hodges wlio responded in a short address asking for the cooperation of the old graduates in build- ing up the T ' niversity. After being re- ceived by the President the procession moved to the Court . musement Parlors es- corting the President on the way. Here a general reunion was held until after nnd- nipht. The Pan-Hellenic reiinion was a great success. The men who managed it should be commended for their good work and their high purpose. The purpose was to develop fraternit.v, loyalt.v and eutliusinsni into a broader lr)yalt.v and enthusiasm for the whole I ' ni versify. The thouglit was I ' niversity fii-st. Fraternity, second. If will be lonvr btd ' ore the plea.sjiut nuMnorii ' s and good intiuciices of this reuinon shall j)a.ss away. The Saturday morning nieefiui, ' . c ' alh ' il West Virginia Day, was more informal than the preceding sessions: it was l)oth in- teresting and bi-eezy. It.s puri)ose was to have a heart fo heart talk about e lucation- al conditions. ol).iccts, and ideals in West ' irginia. .Mr. llersclu ' l C. Oirden madi- an adiuirable presiding officer. His intro- ductory a ldress was irood. and his brii-f, witty inti-o(lu ' tions of the speakers were delightful. The keynote of the short speeches was loyalty to the I ' niversify and enthusiasm for its future under ftie new President. . unirpie and striking feature of the ex- ercises was the academic procession. This procession moved from Woodlium Hall to Commencement Hall at the lx ' _dnniug of both meetings on F -iday. There were more than . OO in line, counting the escort of cadets. There were 114 jn the academic procession. All these except the «tate of- ficers wer( robed in gowns indii ' ating their s ' holastic rank, gowns s]ieetae dar in their rainbow hues, flowing sleeves. an i u ' orgeous hoods. On every projrram there were two or three numbers of music. With these numbers the audienee was always highly pleased. The most noteworthy musical numbers were those given by nirector Black and Miss Margaret Home. The program was a decided suci-ess from the first number to the last — from the no- table addres,s of Piv.sidenti Taft to the .joyous vicfon- of the rnivei-sity ' s football team over their long-time rivals. Never before has a President of the I ' nited States honored the I ' niversit.v b.v his presence; never before have so many old graduates at one time come back to visit their alma mater: and never before ha.s there been such a display of enthusiasm and loyalty for the Cniversifv by graduates and friends from all sections of the State with- out distinction of party, creed, or profes- sion. Tt was a most notable event and pro- phetic of a greater growth and a more ex- tended nsefidne.ss for the University. VI n i STAFF OF INSTRUCTION. DANIKL IIOAKD.M AN FUItlNTON, U .

GEORGE BONNIE WHEELER, M.D. Clay f rZJ- f] [ -•iS ' dr toX- FT ' T g i%yZ [A iT • .r g ' llEVELATIOM l-STI. ' (i on the steps of Com- nu ' iu ' eiiient Hall one evening in early Spring, I looked at the great bulk rising above nie and said half to myself, What a wealtii i)f ineiiiories tiiese walls could dis- close if only they eoiild speak. ' Suddenly there was a rustliuir as if some irhostly presence were near, jind a hollow voice came from the dark interior of the Hall. Ves, I have seen many things. I am scarred by the tread of countless feet and the rigors of many seasons. I have held solemn companies, and I have endured yells which cau.sed my % ' ery bricks to vi- brat e. Hut there is one thing which will be a solace to me until I crumble — I have been identified with the liistory of a won- derful class. There was a feai some paiLse. then the voice contiiuied in a monotonous chant, ac- companied l y the uneasy rustling of the ivy on the walls. At the tiret tottering steps of 1!)12 I foresaw a prodigy, for even in the first year of life these future seniors viiiii|uishcd the Sophomores who dared to taiuit their weakness, and the next morn- ing I pi-oudly di.sjilayeil to the world the inunerals of thi new champion. Within my Widls a class organization was formed. I wjitched members of the cla.ss win athlet- ic victories on the field, and I saw the looks of woiidci- at their learning which followed tlu-m when they canu- to chapel. In the So])linmore year two acts show- ed their fraternal spirit. Realizing the ui -liftiug clfect of victory, they allowe l the chuss of ' 13 to win the annual rush there  m the field, and they gjive the first Sophomore boat ride to the Seniors, which has conic down a.s a irlorinns pn-ccdriit. So the months pjus.s ' d. The ne.xt year, tlie members of l!tl2, made their Junior bow to society. Some of their charms jind vir- tues were set down in the Mouticola with much toil and pain as Mr. WatkiiLs re- ported, and the Juniors were royal hosts to the Senioi-s at one of the most success- ful |)roms. in history. But if 1 have been ])roud l)efore. what is now my joy to see them gathered for class meetings. Seniois indeed I Already they feel the responsibilities of the world upon their shouldei ' s. and with frowuing brows and solemn mein they consider im- portant issues. But what difficulties can- not be overcome with wisdom such as thei rs? In the class room, in athletics and in college activities they have learned to dare and to do. On that great da -, the nineteenth of June, their supremacy will be recognized before the world. Distin- guished as.semblages have met here, doc- tors, lawyers, tejichers, sind statesmen,, but none such as this will be. I looked around with awe jls the solemn tones died away. The mooidight touching the Hall made it look like sf)me sturdy ant ' benignant s ' er. smiling at foml th iught.s. The campus was black with shallow. A street light flickered sh-epily. A train at the distant station gave a siirill whistle and slid away into the night. Hut I sat still, thrilled at the revelation. The old Hall was riirht. Never was there such a class as lltrj. Coming generations will say far in the future, l!tl2 — that was the year we leaf W. and J.: ' Tommy ' Hodges became president : and even grreater tluin these, i( elii. s of the West Virginia I ' Di- versity was L ' raduati ' d I IIISTOHI.W. er J; eLVOPite f m ' ' |( ji ' f:: .-:- lip EDGAR WILLIAMS, President Morgantown, W. Va. He was born in Indiana, far out west in Indiana, out upon the great, wide prairie where the corn and cattle grow, but he came to West Virginia, ' Varsity of West Virginia, here among the hills and moun- tains by Monongahela ' s flow. CARL GEORGE BACHMAN, Wheeling, W. Va. A gridiron and a diamond star whose mighty deeds are known afar. When third down comes with ten to gain. what we should do is very plain. Punt? Oh. no! Oh, not at all! Just call a plunge, give Cheese the ball. JOHN ALEXANDER MacRAE Aylesbury, Saskatchewan He is always in a hurry, ' cause he has so much to do, but he ' s always sure to do it in a way that ' s proper. too. One can hardly understand him. he ' s a many-sided man, and we wonder how he could have come from far Saskatchewan. . .L.t GLENN FOSTER WILLIAMS Clarksburg, W. Va. It pleases me clear through to watch a picture show. Of all the things I like to do. that is the best I know. I do not like to go alone, I ' d never get full measure. I always like to have just one to help divide the pleasure. IRIS BROWN Morgantown, W, Va. A maid who is demure and sweet with voice both soft and low, whose smile is worth a goodly treat, whose dress is always so . Though telling fortunes suits her well, we think that she will be a school teacher. She does not tell but only says, We ' ll see. HARLEY KILGORE Morgantown, W. Va. Happiness, Ilarley calls his aim, he doesn ' t state her other name. He ' s Demo- cratic to the core, he studies law and cries for more. Whenever he starts in to root , the girls all cry, Oh, aint he cute! r ii HUNTER WHITING Glenville, W. Va. He ' s as noisy as can be, he ' s as frisky as a flea, his talk he couldn ' t stop to save his life. The greatest thing he hopes to do when his college days are through is the usual hope of man — to get a wife. DENNIS SELKIRK McINTYRE Hepzibah. V. Va. Jack of all trades an master of none, that is the way his story begun. His name is Dennis, alas! and alack! We fear that his work ' U be master of Jack. DEAN COOK SKINNER Morgantown, W. Va. This modest young man hopes that he may some day graduate. His coming, then, to W. V. was fore-decreed by Fate. But if he does not draw each year ten thousand — mabe more, he thinks that he will come here and be a janitor. AJAX TKl.EMON SMITH Princeton, V. Va. Ajax. the son of Telenion, fought ' round the walls of Troy, a hero bold in days of old who caused the Greeks much joy. But history ' s page in future age will tell of Ajax Smith who picked the flaw in courts of law to fight his battles with. ROSCOE SHIRLEY TAYLOR Morgantown, V. Va. Shirley Taylor, tall and thin, loose of joint and loose of grin. He ' s tried his hand at many things, from teaching school to bowling pins, and now he says his aim in life is marrying a wealthy wife. BEN TRACY Wheeling, V. Va. When he filled out his Junior slip, he simply wrote his name, his home address and one thing more, the school from which he came. Now how he can expect a verse from that is quite a mystery. We ' d soon run down from bad to worse with such a scrappy history. ' 1.4 J : STEPHEN ROWAN CRAWFORD Fox Chase, Philadelphia, Pa. The greatest thing he hopes to do indeed is well worth giving. He wants to be a lawyer who can earn a decent living. It is a question strange and queer, how he ' ll suc- ceed in his career, for sometimes lawyers, you well know don ' t coin great heaps and stacks of dough. RICHARD WILLIAM JOHNSON Union, W. Va. On his father ' s farm he used to work. From tasks that are hard he does not shirk. All his work is done that way; from this young man you ' ll hear some day. WILLIAM RUSH GOFF Spencer, W. Va.. Pills of paste from flour fine will be ex- actly in his line. He will prescribe for all the ills of humankind the pasty pills, and sweetened waters, rank pre ' iense for medi- cine he will dispense. This doctor, you may be assured, will make the people think they ' re cured. JAMES LEWIS CALDWELL Huntington, W. Va. He has the best name of the lot. Well, well, what ' s in a name? Why, whether he is sick or not, he ' s Caldwell just the same. 1 ' BEULAH DAVIS Morgantown, W. Va. As various as an April day, as Mr. Tenny- son would say. She ' s always up to some- thing new, to put it as the plain folks do. CHARLES EDWARD HODGES Morgantown, W. Va. He can act the llinglish dude, and play the ' owlin swell who doesn ' t like I he rough and rude so very jolly well, a don ' t cher know who twirls a cane affecting Hin- glish ways, ' twould cause a Hinglishman a pain to see the part he plays. WILLIAM JOSEPH BRENNAN Kingwood, W. Va. There was a day some years ago which brought to me intense delight. My trousers short began to grow and reached my ankles ere the night, and since that time there ' s been no day which seemed one-half so great to me as when all Nature seemed to say, Oh! what a man you ' ve grown to be. NELLE McCONNELL Miss Nell McConnell ere she is dead, has the ambition to learn to make bread. And when she makes that fine Welsh Rabbit, all the girls are right there :o nab it. EDWARD JAMES BAUGHER Folsom, W. Va. Now Edward Bougher came to us a very good Hunk-driver. He got into an awful muss as a Sophomore boat rider. Some day he ' ll be an engineer, his equal here will ne ' er be seen if he can stand the test se- vere and pass off Calculus 16. I FREDERICK BRUCE MORGAN Ravenswood, W. Va. If 1920 ' 8 not too late, he may then be a graduate. A notary public he will be, a man of note and high degree. BESSIE REED To see Bessie Reed wi. h her smile so sweet is the next best thing to a Commun- tiz treat; she ' s fond of her books but likes the best to study the wren and the robin red-breast. JOHN LAWRENCE STEWART Beckley, W. Va. The bleachers is a dandy place, ' tis there I like to be to cheer our athletics on their race to glorious victory. I like to holler, whoop, and shout, and throw my hat, and yell, but when our batters get struck out, I surely feel like the dickens. d NATHAN C. BURDETT Charleston, W. Va. To study hard is his delight. He burns the gas till late at night While dreaming of his heart ' s desire, he studies pictures in the fire, and gives free rein to fancy ' s flight. To study hard is his delight. PEARL LOUISE HODGES Morgantown, W. Va. Pearl Hodges, our wonderful star. What magnitude? firs.? second? third? Why, first, of course, there you are! She doesn ' t mumble a word. REUBEN FINE Martinsburg, W. Va. Reuben Fine, a worthy wight, on the job from morn to night. Though undecided as to aim, sometime he ' ll be known to fame. JOHN Y. YORK. Jr. Kenova, W. Va. Oh! flitting popularity when will you settle down on men? To win your favor I have sought. I have not done it. but I ought. EUGENIO FERN. NDEZ G. Rri. Rio Grande. Porto Rico Our Porto Ricon classmate will fill some high position, professor in a college great, or may be a physician. His research work in chemistry of living cell and nucleus will honor our old ' Varsity, since he. indeed, be- longs to us. r JOHN EDWARD KENNEDY Boothsville, W. Va. This fine young fellow of excellent car- • ; J f riage has trouble escaping proposals of marriage. Leap year has its terrors for him. so they say. he wishes to skip just a year and a day. - iL J-i WILLIAM THOMPSON LIVELY Charleston, W. Va. Bill Lively is a lively lad as full of fun as he can he. Among the athletes we have had he ranks high us we ' ll all agree. Of course he ' s not so great in size, but he ' s big enough to make a hit , and anybody who has eyes will say Bill Lively ' s got the grit. ALBERTA LOUISE WOODFORD Morgantown, W. Va. Alberta Woodford, so cute and demure, for blues and homesickness she ' s a sure cure. She studies with vim and plays just the same. Whatever she ' s doing, she ' s all in the game. t ' ; DELFORD LEE COTTRILL Normantown, W. Va. Yes, he likes to go to college, ' tis his favorite pursuit, but for certain kinds of knowledge, he doesn ' t care a hoot. He doesn ' t see a bit of sense in digging up old Latin words, he ' d rather study farm, and fence, and grain, and fruit, and stock, and birds. ■ -■ RICHARD ROEDER FELLER Martinsburg, W. Va. Class fights and rushes brought him fame, on the football field he won a name, but the greatest thing he hopes to do is to coast past Norway, P. D. Q. GEORGE H. PORTMAN Rohester. Pa. A moment of most anxious fear which put my mind in dire distress and gave me feel- ings, strange and queer, was just before she answered Yes. She had me scared, I must confess, but she said Yes! yes, she said Yes! LEONARD LLOYD FINCH Shinglehouse, Pa. If girls could only tell the truth, or tell a lie and then stick to it, there ' d be some chance, but,— ah! forsooth! There is not one of them will do it. Than fool with them, you ' d better bet, I ' d rather play my old cor- net. CHAS. LESTER BROADWATER Harrisville, W. Va. Four years he was a principal down in New Martinsville. He never would be frl- volsome and says he never will. But o ' er his books and for his class, he studies and rehearses. The funny thing that came to pass — he wrote some of these verses. i I LOUISE STEALEY Clarksburg, W. Va. Louise ' s other name is Stealey. In the Boston we see her daily. She ne ' er was known to put on airs, she gives advice on love affairs, for she well knows affairs of heart , she is past master in the art. ' JAMES CORNWALLES ALLEN Now here we have a fine young man whose name is Jimmy .Mien. He studies hard whene ' er he can, and never drank a gallon. When he ' s not doing calculus, he goes to Woman ' s Hall. He thinks that good hard study does not go with love at all. i..U . DWIGHT HALL TETER Philippi, W. Va. This black haired wight whose name is Rwight in his pursuit of knowledge has traveled much, absorbing such in Tademy and college. In Bethany he used to he in search of somthing higher. He didn ' t dare continue there, fate marked him for a— lawyer. HELEN ELIZABETH PURINTON Morgantown, W. Va. A very shining member is Helen Purin- ton. Her hair you will remember is like the mid-day sun. She ' s very bright in classes, but, sometimes, I surmise, she cut them and then passes just with her dreamy eyes. GEORGE FRANCIS PHILLIPS Belington, W. Va. To make a million is my aim, Invest, en- joy, and spend the same. The whole of it I ' ll never spend for 111 have bankrools without end. Hut what ' s the use of all that cash when nows the time to cut a splash. If I just hail that niillin rocks , how It would help to itand the knock ! xi r -5-Mi wa HOMER WII LARD GUSTAVE GRIMM St. Marys, W. Va. Homer Willard Gustave Grimm, many girls get stucl on iiim . If your heart for him is hurting, look out, girl, he ' s only flirting. Homer Willard Gustave Grimm, who said there were flies on him ? Long and slender, tall and slim . Homer Willard Gustave Grimm. pTf ' jj SADIE RAY GUSEMAN Morgantown, W. Va. In D. S. she ' s a pioneer. Come, list, ye bachelors, far and near. A chef of great renown is she, and cooks for Henry without fee. WILLIAM VERNON McNEMAR Lahmansville, W. Va. A lawyer great in much demand, decreed by Kate, though all the land to help and aid the rich, of course, in plans well-laid to get divorce. I VV. A. UiNiVEKSlTY UBKARY m FREDERICK EARLE MEALY Morgantown. W. Va. For a rush or for a fight, this young lad was ever ready. ' Twas to him a cheering sight to see his comrades standing steady. He was always in the scrap where the battle was the thickest, and his strength, and vim and snap always made the foe the sickest. ' CHARLES STILLMAN ROBLNSON Uniontown, Pa. Oh! he is a warrir most valiant and true, he has fought for our colors more battles than two. His duties and orders he never forgets for he ' s an official in the Corps of Cadets . He has an ambition as great as the just, Big Stick of the future to bust up a Trust. MARTIN LOXLEY BONAR Moundsville, W. Va. He had a dream that spurs him on to high and great endeavor. His faith in it has never gone, ' twill never leave him, never. . chemist great he ' s sure to be and all the world shall know him. for he will use bis chemistry to help all those below him. 1 i CHARLES GEORGE BAKER Morgantown, W.

And Alma created the world with all its cliLsses; and the world was withont form, and the spirit of Alma moved about on the surface of the shallows. And Alma said. Let us make a class in our own image, after our likeness, a darl- injr class, that the spirit of Alma may be j;lorified in the world : and it was so. And Alma said, Let there be a .separa- tion in tlic midst of the classes, and let a cap divide between class and class; And Alma made the grey cap, and divided the classes which were over the cap from the cla.ss which was under the cap ; And the darling class which was under the cap Alma called Thirteen, and the gathering together of the other cla.sses she called the I ' nfortunate Ones: and Alma .saw that it was good. In those days was I ' urinton king over all the worlil. and Wayne was i)riuce in ' I ' hirtcen. And the class grew mighty, and the spirit of Alma was great in the eyes of all men. And Thirteen was tein|)ted by the giants which were then in the world, and these are the fallen angels, the Twelve; And Thirteen was victorious over Twelve : and the fame of Alma was spread liver all the world. And there were many mighty men in tho.se days, who served Alma faithfully: Wayne was a mighty warrior before Alma: John was a great scribe in the sight of men : Tom is the father of all who shout with a loud voice; and Alec is the father of the Idiots. And in the sixth tnonth on the fifteenth clay of the month. Alma looked upon all her work which she hail created, and . lnia saw that it was good. And . hiia re.joieed in her Thirteen. txo6us And it came to pass after many days that Alma the Mother looked down upon her darling class, and she saw the wicked- ness of Thirteen, that it was great : That Thirteen had forgotten the grey cap, and that Thirteen had ceased to re- member Alma. Then it repented Alma that she had made Thirteen, and if grieved her sore. And Alma the .Mother wept bitterly, and she chastised Thirteen. And she sent cruel war on the land, civil strife, and the duke of York became prince over the land. And a scourge did Alma send upon Thirteen, a pest, a plague, which is Four- teen; And the class was sore stricken by the vermin, and Thirteen cried aloud unto Alma. And Alma had cinnpa.ssioii on Thirteen, and she said. Heboid, I have found my darling class; it shall .still be for a glorifi- cation unto my name; And I will lead out my darling into a great state, which is the Junior, and Thir- teen sludl be my .joy. And Tcmuiiy, the friend of Thirteen, Ih?- came the annointed of Alma, and Tonuny nded over all the world. (Lkronlciti In those days was Thirteen happy, in the days when it plea.sed Almn to anoint her son Tommy, and men rejoiced over all the world : And from the remotest parts of the uni- verse did joyfid .soas gather, with banners and torch, with tlute and ilrum. and won- drous was the magnitude of their proces- sion ; And Big Bill, liord of the Tniverse, came unto Tommy, the friend of Thirteen, and did bless him. And Satan was envious of Tommy, and he sent his warriors in red and black to tight against Alma. But the mighty men in Thirteen arose. JUNIOR CLASS HISTO R Y and each cried to his neighbor, To your totrs, oh Thirteen, have we no part in Alma? And from the four coi-uers of the world did Alma gather her warriors, and in the eleventh month, on the fonrth day of the month, did she otter battle to the red and black ; Then did Tom shout lustily, and Carl advanced valiantly ; and Alma was vic- torious. And Prince Carl was cliosen to lead the cohorts of Alma. After this was there continuous joy and contentment in Thirteen, and Edgar was ruler in the land ; And each man lived as was fitting in the sight of Alma, and Thirteen blessed Alma Unceasingly. In the fifth month, on the twenty-fourth day of the month, did each man lay aside his work, and gladly come to the Armory. Rejoicing in his iieart did he come, with garlands and wreaths, with zither and gui- tar, and he did dance for joy in Alma. And all these things were written down by John the scribe, and are read even unto this day in the Book of John, which is the Monticola. And in those days did Alec the Idiotite prophecy. And he opened his mouth and spoke like a man, saying: Hear ye Thirteen, and give ear all ye from the four corners of the world ; for Alma hath spoken : r ' hildren have I nourished and brought up: full-grown men have they become, sons in whom I am well pleased ; Tenderly have I cared for them, and i)n- tiently have I suffered for them. Thus saith Alma, Remember. Thir- teen, remember me for my goodness: for have I not dealt motherly with you? Have I not opened your e.ves to new truths, and for greater undei-standing have 1 not cherished you? Therefore thus saith Alma, Be faithful unto me, my children, spread my goodness over all the earth, That you may be glorified wherever you may go, that Alma your Mother may ever be a.s dear to you as you are now to me.

Since that time every elass lias followed this example, thereby show- ing great originality. The Clas,s of 1! 14 fears not annihilation by the eyde of the ages, but we do not wish to disturb so deep-rooted a etistoin in so venerable nn institution. So here is ours. Karly in the month of September. liUd. there gathered from the seven corners of the State, a number of .vonng men and young women, who were desirous of enter- ing tlii ' ir names among those who were at- tending West Virginia University. Al- most every city. Wllage and hamlet of the State was represented in our numbers. A few there were whose home address was that section of the eountrj ' known as the l)aek woods. After registration day was over we found that we numbered almost two hun- dred and that we had been srivcn the name of Freshmen. My! How jiroud we were of that name, for it meant that we were a part of a Univei-sity old in traditions ami c-ustonis, a I ' niversity that claimed many of the great men of the Nation as her own. . fter all. what a great and trood world it was and how fortunate we were in beinu members of the P ' ' reshmen class of ' 10. Thns a month pa.ssed. One morninir our iileal world was riidely shaken by som( •rlai-ing jiosters. These posters were evi- dently made for our e.speeial benetlt. They were foull.v untrue. One of the L ' irls said that tlie.v were reall.v horrid . They were as bad as that, if not worse. We .soon learned that this v as the work of the Sn]ih(imores of ' 10. who were our enemies by tradition: if not by tradition they were now by common consent. A few nights later we a.ssembled in Commencement Hall, in order to elect a leader and to organize a squad for the ela.ss rush, whieh was one of the things mention- ed on the posters. Phil C ' onley was chosen a.s President and twenty-five of our biggest men were selected for the ela.ss rush. Then one night when the moon was eu- circled by a large, angry, red ring, we met our enemies in front of Woodburn Hall. They allowed us to defeat them in three successive rushes. We had won the first contest for the honor of ' 14. So it was throughout the entire year. To show our enemies that our hatred toward them had somewhat pacified by our many victories and bv the spoils of war which we h;id ac- -umuhited. we met them at the wharf and bade them good speed on their annual boat- ride. Here I have told you of the great- ne.es of the Class of ' 14 while it was yet in its infancy. The first .vear was finished and when our class returned to the I ' niversit.v after its .summer vacation (for not a one had flunked ) we were called Sophomores. Soon we proceeded to elect officers for the year and wisely chose the valiant Lewis Rurrell to rule over us. A committee was appointed to warn the Freshmen of the on- coming elass rush. Tlie information was liberall.v distributed in such places as mem- bers of the Class of ' lo were known to fre- iuent. But as the many victories of the Fourteeners were still current topics in college life, and as the new Freshmen were unusuallv wise, for freshmen, there was no cla.«s rush. Tt so happened one niirht that eight freshmen, far braver than the re.st. decided to paint their numerals on the Observa- tory ' . A Sophomore who had been out rather late, stud.vin?. was returning home when he .saw a dark figure outlined against the white surface of the Observatory ' s dome. Woe is me for relating such a sad and uncannv scene as then occurred. Ten Sophomores — Eight Freshmen — Freshmen run — Sophomores follow — Freshmen in B. V. D. — Course of race down College Hill to High Street — Terrible. From this on. the reisrn of Lewis Burrell was of great peace and quietness. As has been said. Happy is the class whose an- nals are brief. And so ends the begin- ning of the historj- of the Class of 1914. MJ|E wa TTEW OH WITH My :. Freshmen Class History . -•- ; ' : ' tlie twi ' iity-lit ' tli (lay of Septwn- l i ' P, in till ' year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and eleven, there was a momentous event i-eeoriled in the annals of West Virgrinia T ' nivei-sity — ' Xintteon- tifteen had arrived! Outsiders knew only that we exeelled in numbers any other elass that had ever entered the Tniversity. They knew not our latent possibilities. We all enjoyed the delifjlits of being ■ ' Watted in in the Cadet ( ' ori)s. we united in knoekinjr that orj anix.ation — we eontinued knocking until something of more inii)ortanee took our attention. In a few days the tortures of drill were for- gotten in the wrath whieh filled us when we saw the Sophomore Posters. These doeuments, with whieh the ■■Wise(?) Ones aildressed us in terms more vitup- erative than grammatieal. raised our tempers to fever heat. R-evenge ! We met! WE organized I ! WE started on the War-path !!! Our battle ery was show us the Sophs . We marelied to Swisher Theatre and lined up in forma- tion more militant than .iiilitary. We en- tered that place of amusemen;. However we neglected to go through the little for- nialiy of purchasing ticket-s. The impos- sible was achieved — The Swisher Theatre was rushed. After we had selected com- fortiible seats -Mr. Sitnek. manager of the theatre, assured us that we might remain. We thought so too and thanked him. A few nights later a large number ol Soph(miores engaged in a hunt for Fresh- men. They found what they wanted, in fact more than they wanted. There were too many of us, and in a few moments the pride of Fourteen were trus eil up like .so many fowls, and were at our mercy. The Sophs were no longer a power in the land. Then the rush i?). The inter-class council met and detcrmini ' d a date. The class of Fourteen hastily assembled and declined to rush affirming that tiiey could only see in the dark. That was the end of the rush. — thus we were robbed of a legitimate victory. But do not forget — We are the only cliuss that has successfully rushed the Swisher, we beat the Sophs in the fight, and We won the class rush bv default. IliSTORIAX. f LatanAi on THt Tone or Q )¥ii. JV resl]man ' g oliloqug To work, or not to work, — that is the question : Whether it is easier on the feelings to suffer The slights and taunts of outraged professors, Or to take amis against a sea of lessons. And by studying overcome them? To study, to think — No more ; and by study to say we end The fault-findings and the thousand natural scoldings That professors use so readily, — ' tis a eonsumation Devoutly to be wished ; To study, — to think — To think ! perchance to dreau) : ay there comes the rub For in that sleep after hard work what dreams may come When we have sluiffled off to bed, Must give us pause: there ' s the respect That makes calamity of a college course ; For who would bear the prods and thrusts of teachers, The pangs of Latin, the laws of Rhetoric,  • The pains of Algebra, iind the spurns That the patient student of his instnictor tiikes When he himself might have a good time By going to picture shows? Who would bickerings bear To groan and sweat until lat€ hours. But that the dread of something on examinations. The undiscovered iuestions originated by and known Only to the mind of the professoi-, puzzles the will, And makes us rather study the b«sons we hate. Than go to see the girls w(! love. Thus does the fear of flunking make workers of us all, And thus the native hue of idleness. Is siekled o ' er with the pale cast of thought. And .joys of great pith and moment With this work their currents turn awry, And lose the name of pleasure. t TIIIKU YKAR LAW Lnw ND Ff i n en Af I Hcrcptimt Th - Y. W. ( ' . A. and V. M. ' .

Rohert 1). Ilenncn first thought ot the plan, and early in the summer preeeed- ing the inaufjuration, divul red it to some of the alumni living in Morgantown. His idea was that the (Jreek letter men who had been students in the University shouh ' i unite in giving the institution a testimonial of support — more than this, unite in sup- I)ort of the institution — on the occasion of the inauguration of a new president. The lilan was taken up enthusiastically by the fraternity men at the seat of the Univer- sity. They held several meetings, pleas- ant nu etings, by the way, and formed an organization to work out the details. A central committee was formed of the fol- lowing members: Phi Kappa Psi. Oilbert B. Miller; Phi Sigina Kappa. Walter South; Sigma Chi, Howard L. Swisher; Phi Kap[)a Sigma, T. J. Arthur; Kappa . ll)ha. Thouuis Ray Dille; Delta Tan Delta, P ' rank P. Corbin; Beta Theta Pi. Fred C. Plenniken: Sigma Phi Ejisilon. (tu.v Hartle.v; Sigma Nu, Robert H. (irerMi. Officers were elected as follows : Presi- dent, Walter IT. South; Secretary. T. J. Arthur; Treasurer, Fred C. Flenniken. Snb-committies that gave valiant service Were organized. Robert E. Guy, was named to represent the homeless Greeks of the University. C. B. Dille was interested in looking up the members of Alpha, (lamnia, which flourished here in the sev- enties. Members of dead chapters of the past were sought out. Ever ' Greek who had been a student in West Virginia and remained in reach of Uncle Sam ' s pos- tal service was told of the plan. Sub- conmiittees were named to co-operate in every town of importance In the state. Every chapter beseiged its own membei-s, and planned to entertain them. Funds were raised, and the zeal of those inter- estcfi never decreased. The result was phenomenal. Long be- fore the date of the reunion, Friday, No- vember third, more than five hundred Greeks had pledged tlcmselves to attend. And they kept the pledge. At si.x o ' clock on the evening of Novem- ber third, each fraternity held its own re- union, entertaining its alninni with din- ners, liinchcnns. smokers, or reminiscent pilW-WOWS. At the appointed hour. Chief Marshall Joseph K. Buchanan took command. The |)r()ce!-sion of fi ' atei-nities formed and marched throuiih the streets, cheered and a|)plau(led by the entinisiastie crowds. Pjvery chapter had its own peculiar ' stunt. ' In friendly rivalry, the chapters endeavored to outdo one another in iiniijue and outlandish disi)lays. Reil fire, music. . ' ells and song ' s, with strange costiunes. banners, pennants and insignia of every kind and character made the parade pic- turesque, and imposing. JIarching with the pledges, were men of mature years, and there was no distinction between Greek and (ireek. With several apologies, let it here be stated that Greeks of fifty- seven varieties united to make Rome howl ! President Hodges was visited in his home, and welcomed the Greeks in one of his virile, thrilling speeches. His home was ()i)ened, and every man in the proces- sion was received with a cardial hand-clasp and an expression of good will. The formal celebrati m was concluded with a smoker and lunch at Court hall, where the entire part.v gathered to ex- change reminiscences, renew old acr|uain- tances, and pledge again allegiance to alma mater. Th( re-union was nothing short of a glorions success, from ( very standpoint. Mild will not be soon forgotten by any of the partici]iants. A word as to its purpose. First and foremost was the idea of unit- ing all Univei-sit.v men in behalf of the University, renewing their loyalty and al- legiance, and stirring them to an active exi ression of these sentiments. Second lo this was a desire to mark in no uncer- tain wa.v. among the graduates and un- dergraduates, what was believed to be the beginning of a new era for the University. And thi ' U, there was the desire to bring about a liettcf undeiNtauding. a unit.v of purpose, a more cordial feeling, among the men in all fraternities, in wliich |iro- cess it was anticiiiated that men who liiul forgotten the .joys of frolicsome college da.vs would again indulge therein. That these purposes were carried out, tiic record establishes beyond all question.

I suppose that nicau.s stay at lionie all night . ITe jerked a chair up to the fii ' c and sat down. Well what are yon kirk- ing about? asked Bull. Isn ' t this phu-e good enough for you? You don ' t know a good thing when you iiavc it. Xow when I first went to eoUege — he paiised reflec- tively. Everybody, knowing Bull ' s stories, pulled their ehaii-s closer and settled com- fortably in their seats. Now when 1 first went to school. ' con- tinued Hull, things were different. We didn ' t have a frat house then, with steam heat, and gas lires, and big leather cush- ioned rtirkcrs. We lived in a dranglity old frame house, studied by lamplight, and kept warm, when it was possible, at open wood fires. We swept our own rooms. made onr own beds, and built our own fires. There were ten of us fellows at the same house who chipped in together and so managed to worry along sonicliow witli- out dying, until the second yc;ii- 1 was in si-lioiij. ' didn ' t die even then, liut wc did annrx a liouselioid jewel. Our .Icwcl wa.sn ' t much to lnok at. l)e- ing merely a liomely looking nigger, about five feet tall, and at lea-st fifty years old. Homely! That nigger looked like a mud fence on a rainy day. Yes Sir ! he was .sonu! shy on looks, but he was there when it eanie to comfort. lie made our beds, kept the fires going, and best of all, kept the wood-bo.x full. We never did know how he did manage that wood supply, I don ' t think anybody a.sked him any em- barassing |ncstions. lie called himself John Doc. so to save trouble, we did too. ■■John Doc owned a little eal)in, about as delapidatcd as himself, that was sup- l)oscdly his home, but he was very seldom th ' re. Ill ' liuilt a cot out of a cracker box and put it under the taiilc in my room. There it was he sta.vcd as long as .c al- lowed him. ' ■He was not only a housekeeper iuit an cntertainci ' as well, lie could tell stories of the wai ' foi- hours at a time. He could dance a double shuffle to perfection. His best stunt though, the one pride of his life, was his ability to stand on his head. Olfer him a nickli ' or a dime and he would stand on his liiNid almost any length of tianv lie liked lis all. liut he worsliii)pcd -Ind .Vewell. Wh.-devcr Jud said was law. .XH matter what he was doing, John Doe would droj) evei ' vthing just a.s soon as Jud sjioke to him. One niuht .just al)out like this one. when tlic wind was whistling through the cracks, and it was snowing a regular bliz- zard, the whole Imnch gathered in my room, to toasi theii ' shins at the big tire • loliii Doc had stirred up. and to tell me how hunery they were. I ' d like a hall ' ehicken suggested Jud. ' with roast a|)ples and cream fm- des- sert . Alkie groaned sort of dismall.v. ■()li Lonl ! and wouldn ' t I like to have a big slice of roast i)ork and some apple sauce. ' That started everybody to think- ing of good things to eat, and the more we thought, the hungrier we grew. The hun- grier we got the more we wanted those eats. T don ' t tiiink I ever wished for an.v- thing iiiori ' than I wanted a hot miuee pie. THE PASSING OF JOHN U () C So there we sat, getting hungrier every liiinutr. .My mouth was watering for tliat |iif, ami -lud wa.s thinking su hard of iii II tliat the tt ' ai-s Wen- n his cheeivs. ■Jake wa.s the first one to break the silence; ' Hoys, I ' ve got it. he suggested, •lud looked up sadly. Xot my pie. he mourned. ' Pie nothing, sneered Jake, ' Tve got an idea. ' .lake was always having ideas of a wierd nature, so we didn ' t pay any attention to him. ' I ' lie silenee kept on sileiu ' ing for about .six or forty-nine niiu- iites, when .lake spoke again. ' Boys this is a good idea. Ijisten I Why not send .John Doc down town to the restaurant. Our credit ' s good. ' It wasn ' t a particularly lirilliant idea, Imt wc were so hungry that we forgot our own stu|iidity aiul ahiiost iMtngratidatcd .lake to death. ■■ ' .lohii Doc ' , called .lud. •( ' oliic out here , .lohn Doe piled out of his cracker bo.s bed and stood blinking sleepily at us. ■.John Doc! We want you to go down town to Smithy ' s and buy us some eats ' . ■ Down town! Marso Jud, down town. Slio nough you all don ' t want me to go down town now? ' Why sure! Wliy not? ' answered .liid. •••.Marsc .lud them city doctohs ' li git inc. ' ' ■ ' What doctors? ' ■ ' riiciii niggah-hniitin ' doctohs fiuii the city. They beeti lieali fob two weeks lookin ' fob niggabs. ■ ■■ ' .John Doc you ' re crazy. Wliat do Doctors want with niggers? ' ■ They wants them fob to cut up in their office. Tliey done got Jim Ilartman. ' Pei-sonally I knew that Jim wa.s doing time in the County jail, but I kept (piiet and let Jud continue. ' What do they do to the niggei-s they eateb. John Doc? ' ' Well sab, when they catches a niirgsdi. they ties him up to a table, and sticks a liole in the bottom of bis foot with a pin and U ' ts him bleed to deaf. They done got ■liiii Ilartman. ' ' .Now John Doe, ' .liul wheedled, ' .some- body ' s been kidding you. You run along jiown to Smithy ' s with an order and you can have some ehiekeu for yourself. I wrote out a note with our wants de- scribed, and handed it to the darky. ' Unn along now .lohn Doe, and hurry back. John wrapped himself up in his oveivoat, and objecting audibly, slowly went down the step.s. When we heard the door close bebiiui him. .lud turned to Jake. ' Have you been stuftin ' that nigger again? ' Jake riarcd up in righteous anger. ' 1 haven ' t been stringing him sini-e last term, and you know it ! ' ■ ' Well anyhow, ' drawled .Merry fi-om the bed, ' Why cin ' t we give the old nigger a scare? ' ' Wbal do Noii me.in, ware? asked Jake. ' Oh dress lip in sheets and chase him or something ' . .Merry waveil bis band air- ly at the linen closet. ' Boys, I ' ve got an idea! ' aniiouncetl •lake triiim]ibanlly. ' We could take him iij) to the .Medical Lab. It ' s open, for I was just working there after supper . ' By guns! ' interjected Arkle. we ' d scare the old coon half to death. I sure woidd like to see that nigger run. ' lie started to strip the sheets from the betl. ' Hold on . rkle, let ' s get this thing all planned out right. ' Jud as usual took the lead. ' Now wlien he comes back, we can send him down to his cabin after some lire-wood. You fellows can sneak out with some sheets, and I ' ll see that he hasn ' t got that cannon be usually carries. Then I ' ll start him down the road, ami cut aeriws lots, beliind Williams ' house and mei-t you at the cabin. We can grab him there, and take him up to the Medical hah. Jake, you can go on up to the Lab. and fi.x it up, then take charge after we get there. ' Everj ' hody thought if was a good plan; that is evervbodv but Merrv. THE PASSING OF JOHN UOC ' It ' s pretty cold. he suggested. ' Es- peeially if you uo I ' oiiming around in sliet ' ts. ' ' Kats! ' .snapped Jud. ' You ' re too lazy to eat. Anyhow it has stopped snow- ing, and the moon ' s out. ' So with a last feeble grunt Merry subsided and the plan was unanimously carried. Onee more the room relapsed into silence, exc( ' i t for an occassional chucldc from Jake, followed by a groan from .Merry. Time slipped slowly past, but after an ahno.st interminable wait, we liiai-d .lolin Due stumbling up the stairs. We opened the door for him, and imme- diately forgot our contemplated joke in the mysteries of the basket. There was Jud ' s chicken, Arkle ' s roast pork, and my pie. -lake had some oysters, and Janey had some baked macaroni. Somehow John Doc had kept it all hot, so we dug in. We sure had .some swell feed, even if it didn ' t la«t long. Jake was the fii-st to finish. With a sly wink at the rest of the bunch, he left the room. One by one the fellows drifted out, until at last only Merry and Jud and T were left, flolin Doc was picking at the bones of his chicken, when Jud shouted ; •lohii Doc stand on your head! ' Jolui Doc immediately dropped his chicken, and stood up on his head. While his feet were waving around in the air, it was a cinch for Jud to feel in his pockets, and sneak his gun. John Doc was little and apparantly harndess, but that gun of his was as big as a fort, and looked as mean as a fighting bull dog. Jud got it out of John ' s hip-()ocket and dropped it into his own. When he had it safely put away he said; That will do, John Doc. ' John Doc dn)i)ped to the floor. ' Oui- wood supply is getting pi ' etty low, John Doc. Do you know where you can l;cI soiih ' lircwood foi ' us? ' Tile (larky scrand)le(l to his feet, scnitcliing bis licad tlunigbt fidly. ' 1 mout lia c soiiii ' diiwn to niv place. ' be decided. ' We ' ll have to have some. Suppose you run down and get us a supply. ' John Doc evaded the demand. ' It suah am powerful cold, Marse Jud. and I ' se feard them doctohs ' ll be out— ' ' Beat it now! ' commanded Jud. ' Stick to the road, and nobody will bother you. ' John Do ' obediently picked up his hat, and grumbling under his breath, onee more shuffled out into the cold. As soon as he was gone, we bundled ourselves up in sweaters, aiul stri|)ping the sheets from the bed hui-ried outside. We scuttled around the house, and started across the snow-covereil fields. Merr ' stumbled along, groaning and grund)ling at every .step. Jud swore softly at him for the noise he was making. We -soon reached Jolin Doe ' s cabin and joined the rest of the fellows. The cold had driven them inside the cabin, where they were sitting around in frozen silence, wishing for John Doc ' s ar- rival. Jake was at the window, watching the road. Suddenly he whispered, ' Here he comes. ' W e all rushed to the window. John Doc was scurrying along in the moon- light, whistling shrilly. He came nearer and nearer the house, glancing nervously about him as he walked. lie passed out of our sight, and we listened intently. We heard the snow crunch on the step, then he threw open the door. As the cold wind blew into the room. Merry groaned dis- mally. John Doc stood as if frozen, with his hand on the door knob. Who dar! ' he nuavered. ffu.st then Jud reached out and grasped him by the arm. Screeching with terror, the old nigger broke loose and ran. The whole ten of us, our draperies Happing in the wind, followed him in hot pursuit. John Doc cast a hurried glance over his shoulder. When he saw the white robed mob chasing him, he gave one unearthly shriek and drojiped in the snow. lie wasn ' t dead, just scared stiff. We T H K PASSING OF JOHN DOC pieked him iip, brushed off the snow and stiirted down the road for scliool. Aci ord- iiiv to the plan Jaki- ran ahead to arriui ' re lor onr reeeijtinn. We hastened silently toward town. lHiri- iM ' . ' .John Dot! as fast as we eould. We passed our house on the outskirts of town, passed a few seattered residences, and eame into the boardinir house district. Here it was that John Doe decided to make a break for liberty. With a sudden .jerk he freed himself and Hed shriekinfr down tlie street. We eansrht him before he got very far. but the damajre was already done. Jud hastily improvised a !iag by teariu}; up a perfectly ffood sheet, and silenced our captive cfTeetually. We heard a window raised an l saw a head thrust out into the in K)nli},dit. ' What the helTs goin ' on out there. ' ' uially inquired the voice. Xo an.swer except for a convulsive wrifTf le from John Doc. ' Well ! l),.t I fintl out, now! ' , re- marked the head, aiul the window shut with a banjj. We started tearinj: tlown the road, dra-ryin John Do - after us. We covered the la.st block to school in two seconds less than nothing, and tiiiil into the sanctuary of Medical Ilidl. We sat down on the .stairs, puffing and wondering what wa- going to hapjien next. Jfcrry. still mut- tering maledictions, had presence of mind enough to bar the door. He had .just shot the l oIt. when we heard someone running, then .someone else, and then some mon- until it .soiuulcd as if the whole army were after us. We heard them gather in front of ' Med Hair, and a low nuirnuir of con- vers ition aro.se. Someone s -runehcd up the .steps, and tried the door. Jud looked out of the window. ' Lord! ' he whispered. ' There ' s a huu dred students out there. We ' d better beat it up stairs. ' So up wc went softly, to the dissecting room, .lake had decorated it beautifully. He had placed skeletons at .judicions intervals about the room, and the moonlitrht siftiiif: in throu-. ' h the windows, iiuide .just cnou di light to pnaiuce a wierd. jrreen. ghastly elfcct. John Doi- had .ju.st one look, and then for the second time that night, keeled over. We strapped liim, back down, to the dissecting table, then went to the windows to see what hatl become of our pui-suers. The cold had already driven some of them home, and the few who had remained were now walking away, glancing iiaek suspiciously at the building. Wh.-n they were all safi-ly out of .sit;|it. Jake opened the window, and collected a handfid of snow, and Itrokc off an icicle from the win- dow ledjre. He revive.l John Dm- by rub- ))ing snow in his face, and he laid the icicle on the edge of the table. As so .ii as John Doc opened his eyes, Jake removed his shoe, and ran a pin into the bottom uf the darkey ' s foot. John Doc gave a start, then rela]).scd into an apatlietic cpiiet. Jake picked uj) an empty pan he had near by, and pushed it over underneath the table. As the icicle melted, the dn.ps ran off the edge of the table and dripped with a mel- ancholy tinkle on the bottom of the pan. Jake .said in a deep, sepulchral voice: Urethern, the deed is done. Let us with- draw and return in half an hour. ' We slowly filed out of the room, and down .stairs to the front hall ' What are you goin-; to do jiow? ' ipieried Merr ' . I tied his arms pretty loose. whis- pered Jake. ' Hell find it out pretty stwn. and sneak down staii-s. when we can give him the laugh. ' .Merry grunted. ' Ilidi, .ind we trotia wait around here till that fool nig rer de- cides to untie him.selff ' Sure! There wouldn ' t be iiny joke if we didn ' t get the laugh on him. ' ' There ' s no joke anyhow!

' Still sore. ' responded that lady solemnly — they haven ' t forgriven me yet for nut «ttin;r killed. ' ' She nodded and passed into the house, limping. Wliat ' s the mat- ter with Tige n w ? asked my friend with the t ' xpe -tant twinkle of one who knows Tige and Tige ' s blandly matter-of-fact ad- ventures. Weir , said I settling myself. it ' s this way. Sunday we all went walking down the Pinewoods canon — where the Elk runs, you know. After we ' d gotten maybe a nule and a half, we came back. But Tige. as indiflFerent and independent as ever, wanted to tro on. and did so on : and the last we saw of her. she was cross- ing the Elk on the bie stones. Well, the afternoon wore away. We wrote letters, nnd ' fascinated , as usual Tise. of course, wa.sn ' t there. Five o ' clock came, and then it drew on toward supper time : no Tige we wondered casually what Tiee was doing, and then go to ' kidding each otht-r about the people at the next ranch. Snpper came and went: no Tise : we al! took pains to think up something new anrl oritrinal for the purpose of tea«ine Tiee. when she wandered in. So it went on. and the sun was about half way down. We be- san to wonder more about her — the bo s said they ' d go and meet her if .she came up the same trail. Thev went and return- ed. cTpecttng to find Tige here when they came, they .said : the sun was nearly down. We were all in a state of lively curiosity : we ' phoned to two or three ranches to find ont if she ' d been there. The response was. No. The sun was down, and the sud- den darkness of the mountains was upon us. The boys saddled the horses and rode away in different rlire tions. We girls sat around in suspen.se : the excitement grpw all the t ' me: the teU phone kept ringine with neitrhbors askine riuestions. Several men from nearby ranches went out to hunt, too. Two or three of the boys came back and retum d asain to the search The ' •on jeetures were many : .she had tried to wade and the current was too swift: she had .«prained her ankle on a pjlling stone: ! he had tried to climb the mountains and fallen, or lost her way: she had turned down Big Elk canon in the darkness. Some one suggested musing the town five miles away for a searehinsr party. Some of the pnnident and far seeinir girls got ban- dages, hot water, and plasters ready. When we all felt as if we couldn ' t stand it another minute, we heard shouts, and saw the lanterns waving, down the canon. We mshed out. clear down to the bam. ready for anything from falling on Tige ' s neck to weeping on her lifeless form. Here came Tige. calmly sitting the horse, her glasses shinin£r in the light. ' Why yes. I ' m all right. she was .saying carelessly — We could have shaken her. Later, at the table, she told the tale in that childlike way of hers. After I left you all. I went down the other side of the Elk. O. a Ions while. Then I started to wade across. I had my shoes with my stockings stuffed in them, in one hand, and was holdins tip my skirts with th. other. As I srot to the swiftest place, in the middle. T .slipped : I tried to hold inv skirt up. and dmpped my shoes doing it. Then I fished around for nij- shoes and got my skirts wet — and couldn ' t find ' em either. Then I tho ' t I ' d get out. I walked alons a while, but that stony ?ronnd with no grass, and sharp ' -ati and pine ne lles — can ' t say I enjoyed it much. So after a while I came to some driftwood, and a bright idea hit me — necessitj-. etcetera. I tore strips off my petticoat ' ' and she held it up for us to see — and tied flat pieces of wood to my feet, and srot along that way some. But those Robin.«on Prusoe sandal-; didn ' t work ver - well — kept i-omins off — and sand and atones kept siftine in. I shall never ehop any more meat as lone as I live — I know iusrt how it feels.

They had showed up well in the previous games and big things were expected of them. The Varsity had an off day; the men were not able to get together and lacked IV]) . Several new men were tried out and several old ones wfn shifted. This largely accounts for I he poor learn work. Ohio made long gains by the tinu ' -worn delayed pa.ss.

( Krinii tile New Dimiiiiiati.) West Virgiuia won a great game from Wasliington and Jefferson Saturday. In luii halves of twenty -seven minutes each, West ' irgini;i scored a goal and a touch- down, and Washington and Jefferson scored a touchdown without a goal. West Virginia (i, W. J. ' ) . tliese words and figures decorated pi-actieally every win- dow on High Street Siuiday morning, and they tell the story of the best, cleanest, and most significant victory ever won by a West Virginia eleven. West Virginia placed a l)ctter team in the field than W. l .1. and won the Nictory l)y playing better ball. For the first time in many years, the Old (iold and Blue went into the game believing in her super- iority, and the result vva.s the finest, the most persistent e.xamjjle of team work, and the spirit that cannot be overcome evei ' given here. Furthermore, the membei-s of the team were in the finest physical condi- tion, and at the close of the game showed no signs of great weariness. They were playing with snap and determination wiien the whistle soundetl flic Uiiell of the visitors ' hopes. West Virginia ' s fouchdown came first. and this of c()ui ' s ' put tin- great majority of the crowd in a happy mood throughout the contest. West Virginia kicked off and throughout the first (juarter there was not liiuch advantage on either side, both teams see-sawing up and down the field. ' I ' be visitors seemed surjiri-sed after several ef forts to break the West Virginia lini ' iiml tui-ii the ends, and early in the game the players were railed back for an earnest conference wliidi resulted in nothing worth while. . t the )|)ening of the second quarter, W. i J. ])ut the ball in play on their 4. ) yard line. Ilanna fumbled, West Virginia recovering. West Virginia work- ed the ball to W. J. ' s l. ' j yard line where Sehwabe of W. J. I ' ecovered a fumble, (ioodwin attempted to kick the ball out of danger, but Taylor broke through, blocked the kick and smashed the pigskin across W. J. ' s goal; King and ( ' arfer both fell on the ball. For a second the -i-owd hardly realized that West Virginia had scored a touchdown, but the realiza- tion came amid yells, cheers and the wav- ing of ])ennants. Hachman kicked a pretty goid. W. J. also scored near the end of this ipiarter. After an exchange of punts. W. L : J. recovered a fumbled punt on the ' ai-sity ' s 9 yard line. West Virginia put up a w(mdei-ful defense at this stage of the game. In two tries at the line, the ball was advanced only three yards. W. J. was in desperate straits. At this point a ])enalty of half the distance to the goal was inflicted and this gave W. J. three more trials to make the coveted line. Two attempts were nuule without success but finally Tibbins slipped over by dixang head fii st over the line. He then mis.sed an easy goal and the scoring was ended. Throughout the remainder of the con- test. West Virginia had the better of the argument, though neither team could ad- vance the ball consistently. H was largely a case of two trials foi- the necessarj ' ten yards and then i)unf, Bachman out-kick- ing Goodwin. For West Virginia liaelnuan. Bell, and Scott wei-e the best ground gainers. Car- fv] Harrison and Speer af the ends were always down the field well umler puut.«i and tackled bard. The ciifire West Vir- L;iiiia line was almost invincible ami W. J. shortly gave up hopi ' s of gaining thi ' ough the line. The work of King in making tackles was especially good. In fact every mend)er of the team ])layed hi.s part and it wjus decidedly a team victory. in the matter of penalties, the teams T II !•: FOOT H A I.

Tn form he is rather lanky and loosely put tog:ether. He frequents the (Jeology class where he shows reniarkahlc endurance in omitting sounds, seeminuly never havinjr to stop to take bi-eath. The Crane in shape and form resembles most of his kind, and althoufjh coming from the high altitude of Terra Alta. he seems to thrive vory well on the wonns and snails found along TTniversity Driveway. The (Cold) Finch is a fair looking bird and has become quite familial- since coming hei ' e from Pennsylvania. He always sits (m the bleachers during the hall games and disturbs everybod.v by his loud stpunvking. The Grub was found in an apple orchard near I ' areons. Since coming to the univer- sity he has lost many of his uatui-al idiara- teristies. and has (|uit grubbin ' and taken to Picken (paugh). Almost since the memory of man the Hare has been around the Universitv. TTe is the first to arrive in the morning and last to leave at night. Sometimes some of the cutting ones try to fool him. but like his kindsmaii. P i- ' r Kabbit. the Hare always comes out -ii-torious.

When first brought to the University he was verj- much inclined to act smart and to display his wisdom in seiison and out, ' but through the tender care of the professors and .students he has made much pi-ogress. Thi-asher — this member of the genius 1 larporhynehu.s of the family mimina ' originally came from the east. lie is good to look upon and attends strictly to his own business. Till- Thrush lielongs to the siune family as the Thrasher. It is a great bird to be out of (jooi-s. and takes better to campus rouises. in the Summei ' School, than to any of the otliiT course-s.
