THE ARGO, 1910 William Templeton Hewetson William Templeton Hewetson, who for seven years has been Professor of English at Westminster, was born at St. Clairsville, Ohio. He was graduated from Columbian Uni- versity, Washington, in 1890, and from the Columbian Law School in 1891. For two years after his graduation he prac- ticed law at St. Clairsville, in partnership with Senator W. Nichols. Later he became a teacher of English, a subject which he has taught very successfully at the following insti- tutions-Knoxville College and Waitsburg Academy QWash.j. Professor Hewetson has always been an enthusiastic student of English, and has done graduate work in the English depart- ments of Chicago University, Dartmouth, University of Wis- consin, and Harvard. We of the Junior Class feel that we have a special interest in Professor Hewetson, inasmuch as he has been our class director since entrance. He has ever been loyal to us, sym- pathetic and kind, We realize that we are losing a true friend, and in a slight way would try and express our appreciation for what he has done. ,Wherever he may go, the sincere feeling and good wishes of 1911 will always follow him.

THE ARGO, 1910 Introduction We were somewhat fearful in taking up the printing of the College Annual for IQIO. Several factors were to be considered, any one of which would be enough to discourage the timid. One of the greatest problems was the standard set by the former annuals, which we wished to equal and excel, if possible. The financial question is always the one that causes worry, and last, but not least, is the demand upon our time. This year is to be one of the most auspicious in our history. The new administration is firmly fixed, and results are begin- ning to show in answer to the wise policies followed. We wish that through this book we might impart to students, alumni, and friends some of the Old Westminster Spiritf, and give them a new stimulus to believe in and work for our Alma Mater, to make her the Greater Westminster she deserves to be. We have tried to give credit to whomsoever it was due, in whatever line it was gained, whether athletic, literary, or spiritual. Also we have taken the liberty of portraying some of the peculiar characteristics and idiosyncrasies of both student and faculty. Qur purpose is to present some of the life of the school, and, if possible, recall some of the old times to alumni. Especial credit is due to Mr. Finney for the earnest and faithful way in which he has cared for the artistic work of the book, and to Mr. Elliott for his untiring efforts in the business management. As for the ARGO, deal gently with its defects, regard its merits, rather. Remember we are but students yet, and accept it as an expression of our college life and give it an abiding place in your love. THE EDITORS
