Soremorb We can say but little more than the pages of this book will tell you regarding the life, spirit, and patriotism of Willamette and her students. t For the Trustees and President, we hope the book may mean progress; For the Alumni, we hope the book may recall some pleasant memories of the days when they had a part in the things we now enjoy; For the Senior Class of this year, we hope it will be a help in the years just opening before them; For the Under-Class-man, we ask that it may be no other than an inspiration to undertake the greater things yet to be done; For the Reader, who may be outside of our life, we hope it may leave a pleasing and lasting impression of Willamette. We have labored hard. We have met discouragenlents where we looked for encouragement. VVeLhave felt our hopes rise when given a kindly word, and lastly, dear reader, we have done the best we could.

Coleman To him, who in the vigor of mature manhood is giving himself for our welfare, strong, fearless and tender, we owe an inestimable homage, for a broader outlook, nobler aspirations, and deeper convictions. ' Our President,-a man whose life has been a labor for mankind; a man whose eloquence has stirred thousands; a man who has sat with bishops and statesmen; a successful and a strong man. Yes, we are proud of him, prizing those qualities of greatness which belong to him. We exult that we have him for our leader, knowing that, as such, he shall make our old Willamette leader among the great institutions of learning. But, beyond the depth of pride and exultation, we are profoundly grateful to the it Giver of every good and perfect giftfi that He gave this man to be our friend. He loves us. He applauds our orators. He supports our athletics. He is always ready to listen to our troubles and worries, to give us words of sympathy and encouragement with such a tenderness that we know him to be a true friend. When our college days are but a memory, and our characters have become hardened in the mould, we shall many a time recall with thanksgiving, the kindly face, the sympathetic heart of Dr. Coleman, our President. IO PRESIDENT JOHN H. COLEMAN, DfD. I I Willis 6. Hawley Willis Chatrnan Hawley was born at Monroe, Oregon, on the fifth day of May, 1864. His ancestry is historical, and their deeds closely woven with the growth of the nation from its earliest infancy to the present time. Blessed by being the descendant of sturdy Englishmen who braved the dangers of the New World in early colonial times, gave their lives in the struggle for independ- ence from the tyranny of the mother country, and led the van of western immigration to Oregon in 1847-8, he has received the most priceless heritage of an American citizen, a crown of honor whose jewels are the many deeds of sacrifice and devotion commanded by sincere patriotism and love of country. Dean Hawley has been true to these traditions of his progenitors. His life has been a con- stant advance toward the higher planes of usefulness and the service by means of which to reap noble results. His name is inseparably and indissolubly connected with the true meaning to be conveyed in the words HOld Willamette.H Within her halls when a young man, he began the study which was the basis of his present scholarly attainments. From her he has taken the degrees of B. 8., A. B., LL. B., and A. M. But his time of greatest service to his Alma Mater occurred during the interim between the years 1893 and 1902. Then, when everything was fastly disintegrating, when Willamette's friends were becoming fewer every day, when popular feeling was constantly turning against her, and when unwieldy because of a burdensome debt, Dean Haw- ley took the presidenfs chair and by the aid of a loyal and devoted faculty, and unprecedented sacrifice on their and his own parts, he stemmed the terrible tide which portended inevitable des- truction and established his school so hrmly that she will never again rock on her foundations. No person can appreciate the sacrifice or understand the magnitude of his Titan undertaking unless it were those devoted few who struggled with him. It was the work of a man among men. Dean Hawley was the man. But there was still a herculean task to be performed. T her old debt must be liquidated, erased. Another giant personage was needed. President Hawley wished to stay with the students and continue his work as an instructor. The trustees thought his plan a wise one to fol- low, and so the ohice of Dean of the College of Liberal Arts was created for that special purpose. Such in brief is his oiiicial career. Loved and honored by all, an unexcelled instructor of, history and economics, he occupies a place second to none in the regard of all his students. 12 h DEAN WILLIS C. HAWLEY, A. M. 13' , l f!

FAREXVELL W ith a strange interplay of inward feeling, we approach the threshold of VVillamettels body of alumni. With a lingering glance, akin to that of an ambitious boy leaving the old homestead for the first time, to seek his fortune in a great city, we stroll around the familiar campus. How well we remember all sides of our student life-the college sports, the social life, the morning Chapels, the Class room, and the activity of the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A., which has meant the changing of some of our lives. Even the old trees are helpful friends and bespeak the greatness of Willamette. And now-so soon it seems-we are to be numbered among those whose feet once helped grind out that hole in the door-step, to do so never more, save in fancy. Seven years'ago one of our number registered for the tirst time, was joined the next year by two others; and again after a few years the fourth came into the class; and in the Senior year we numbered live. We, who came into the folds of this institution as Preps, entered with queer ideas of the world, and with a thoughtless acceptance of life and its responsibilities. But we learned that there was something underneath all this, as we came to know and to be swayed by the Christian strength of the Faculty, and we found this underlying something to be-love. Love, expressed in the sacrifice of the pioneers who laid the foundations for our opportunities; love, expressed in the consecrated lives of ' President and Faculty; love, expressed in the sacrifices. of self-denying parents; and above all, in all, and through all, shines the Masters great love. To thee, beloved Alma Mater, we owe more than we can express, save by our lives as thy sons and daughters. 32 m? sit, 1.1 For thee will our loyalty and patriotism ever livewour prayers ascend. To thee, when obstacles block the way and darkness overshadows our ambitions, will we look for strength, and, setting our determination as in football while rings in our ears the famous Rockwell battlecry, u Charge!

Churchill Jennie Sanders Margaret Fisher Jennie Sanders FLOWER Marguerite To me, historian for this talented Class, comes the feelingewould that my pen could utter the thoughts that arise in me, when remembering the past Victories, and contemplating the future glories of this, the greatest class Willamette has ever fostered. Perhaps we might be likened unto some great Sonata, the product of a master hand, Which with its five movements, Andante grazioso, Adagio, Menuetto, Allegro and Presto. Each a study, beautiful in thought and expression, though each one not complete in itself, but taking every movement to form the master-piece. Thus are we: sempre marcato in tempo, sempre con expressione, be it dolce, cantabile, legato, staccato, glissando, or presto con fuco, but we trust it will not be malto agitato in the grand fmale. Many and difficult are the passages we have scaled, and many the chords we have broken and lost, still many are the melodies we have mended. So high our aims and modest our claims, that without further recital of our greatness, we now bid you adieu, and shall wait until time writes a brighter history for us, the naughty five. 34 if d V D. 1. College of Oratory As freshmen, first we studied voice eIt seemed to be the teachers choice- At once we learned to make a tone Quite near, itis true, the nasal bonee Not every tone this point doth reach; No teacherw-but that fact doth teach. But if toward it all tones are aimed, A pleasant voice you will have, itis claimed. By practicing on ttmii and ltnom Both here and by ourselves at home, The tongue, unruly though it be, Would keep its place, we soon did see. We sang, that broad the tones might be, Ma, za, sea, ah, in many a key. And fourthly, as the preachers say, For one more thought to pave the way, We learned some truths about mankind. While well we drilled with nose and mind. The nose is ruler of the voice, Get this we all do now rejoiCe. For if the tones be too far back, And have an element of Hquack , 35 Or if the palate soft doth drop Like to a branch for want of prop, Good faithful drill with nose in mind, Will make the voice quite clear, we find. While we the voice did cultivate Our work on ltpoiseii did not abate. This exercise gives man address In pulpit, hall or wilderness. Much strength itwill give to manage brooms As well as grace in drawing-rooms. On gesture we no rules did write, Each Hcarved the air as best he might. But one thought was well on us impressed, Gesture is neither planned no guessed, ., T wo seniors now we are in name, For this our teachers are to blame. What wonders we shall yet behold, Have not to us, so far, been told. We tremble with an untold dread, When eler we stop to look ahead. College of Medicine Eight graduates are the products of the College of Medicine for 1905. These men have had a more thorough course in medicine than any who have ever before com- pleted the curriculum. Not only was the original course of study pursued more thoroughly, but an addition of three important branches threw a greater burden upon our Seniors of this year. This necessitated niore application upon their part, but they felt that the extra duties thrust upon them were a means of better equipment for the practice of medicine. The Class was pleased, at the beginning of the year, to have three new students from other colleges of note join the class to graduate with them. The medical colleges thus represented are: The College of Medicine of the University of Tokio; College Of Physicians and Surgeons, of San Francisco; and Rush Medical College, of Chicago. Short biographies of the. Seniors of this class will be found accompanying their photographs on a subsequent page. Miles sat at one end of the Class and was always happy provided he could find someone with a tt match.H Dalton was next, when he was not in the rear of the room with his microscope. Van Winkle was a target for questions in surgery. Schmidt wore the whiskers. N akaki stopped questions passed up by other members. Williams wore the moustache. ' Beauchamp always got the first question in surgery. Allen was the tall one who sat at the other end of the class. $5 36 23' 'Y t r en, 3r 1! e! EDGAR F.

Jolly People, Nineteen-six. In the halls of HOld Willamette,H Tall and stately HOld Willamette, Three short autumns long ago, Gathered a group of youths and maidens, As the Freshmen of the college, As the First Years of the college. Of that number Only three are now together, In the Class of nineteen-six, Only three, and they are maidens. One is sweet and quiet, Quiet as the summer sunshine. One is gentle and good, And the other wise and Winsome. In the second autumn, Sophomores they were that autumn, Two others came to join the class, One a youth and one a maiden. He, 21 strong and sweet singer, 43 She, with common name. and manners pleasing. Now has come the third year of the history; It finds them grave and learned Juniors, Two youths since have joined them, Two youths, to do them honor. One is plodding, slow, but honest, A friend to all Who knew him; The other a warrior and a Chieftain Who, With his eloquent talking, Has brought glory to his class. NOW of our number there are seven, Three young men and four young maidens- We have won honors for our tribe; And for our dear Willamette. But our course is not yet hnished, A year of moons lies yet before us. Many deeds are still before us, And at the end wetll reach the goal. The Great Junior Histrionic T roupe 0f Impostors Arrived in Salem, Oregon, September 29, 1965,. The impression Which they made upon the public will never be effaced. The audience is convulsed with laughter from the opening of the play until the heavy parts, Where all interest is lost. They are always received With immense enthusiasm and unstinted applause. They are the best yet. James Garfield Heltzel, as heavy villian, has made a record which eclipses either Hanford or James. Miss Mary Lucile Salomon, the leading lady, in grace, dramatic power and artistic finish, is equaled only by such artists as Ellen Terry and Modjeska. Miss Bertha Beatrice Hewitt as soubrette, and Miss Winifred Bird Duncan, as leading Juve- nile, are inimitable in dainty grace, and characteristic charm. Only the future can reveal what is yet in store for this brilliant company. Business Manager, Bertha Hewitt Corresponding Secretary, Mary Salomon Treasurer, Winifred Duncan Advance Agent, James G.

McCain HSmall in number but mighty in deedi, is a phrase embodying a true characterization of the Junior Class of the Willamette Law Department. However inferior numerically they may be, they acknowledge no superior in college patriot- ism, and the criterion of their actions may be summarized by the expressions, Loyalty to Willam- ette and Reverence for her glorious traditions. Possessed of high ideals, they cherish ambitions of the most laudable type, which aim at places high in the service of their state and nation; and each member of the class is endowed with such energy and indomitable determination that it is safe to predict an ample realization of their aspirations. Also, to form a more stable organization than has been in existence for the past few years, a constitution has been drafted and adopted which is designed to further the uniting of the law stu- dents into a closer friendshlp with the other colleges of the University, and also to give them a special interest in their particular department.

Most of us were pre- pared. for that class in the Academy, but. nevertheless, a few strangers were heartily welcomed. .Ray Andrews, one of these quickly won our love and coniidence to such an extent that we made him president of the class. We, who stand beneath the black, have an unbounded amount of class spirit, which was dem- onstrated in the great tt rush i, which took place, when, in spite of the strength displayed by the green and white, the royal black fioated from the hagstaff for a whole day. Then there was a basket-ball game which was won by us, the score being 18 to 20. Not a big margin, and yet it gave us a jolly moonlight picnic, away out in the country to a big farm, the home of one who claimed allegiance to the green and White. This was the result of a wager. The next event was an oratorical contest, in which the president of our class was awarded second place, and as the other three orators were Sophomores, we felt that we were doing pretty well, so well, indeed, that we gave a party for the orators and two classes. When college opened in October, we found that we had both lost and gained members. Our ' + ' i A t former president having entered a university nearer his home, caused us to give his position of .. . .. trust to another new man, Mr. Nace. n I o.- n Some of the ohices which are held by members of this class are: Editor-in-Chief of the ios I w .. Wallulah; Vice President and Secretary of the Student Body; Manager of the FoOtball Team for 1905-06; Presidents of the Clara Coleman Sorosis, Philodosian Society and Prohibition League. i We have endeavored to live up to our motto. ti To Do Everybodyfi andsit is evident that m we have succeeded to a certain extent.

Pollard, HISTORY The present Sophomore Class of Willamette Medics. registered as embryo Docs. during the month of October, io3. Our nativity represents eight states and one empire, Kansas and Oregon having an equal number of representatives. Prior to the beginning of our present career, each had made an enviable reputation for himself, and since that time has gained one for the Class. We have the largest membership in the Medical Department of the school. Although not having any of the fairer seX enrolled in our Class, we are justly proud of possessing many of the qualities coni- mendable in either sex,notab1y the grace of quietness texoepting during rough housey. The entire Class is a product of the farm, and their various occupations just prior to the present course were: Five farmers, five teachers, one minister, one scissors grinder and one burn. Thus, being of varied occupations, we are necessarily a Class of broad talent and experience; and it is a well known fact that these qualities can not be concealed. It is made throughout of those sturdy, reli- able characteristics, that make each a power within himself, though each may plod along in his own peculiar way, yet by this all will be led to the best advancement of the profession to Which they aspire. It is well that it may, for they are aspiring to that which is the highest, the most difficult, the most important, the most ancient, the most honorable among the merely human voca- tions of men. It is a profession necessary for every grade and age in life, therefore requires the very best brain of the land to hll its positions. It answers the penniless appeals of the poor, and 54 pme awww climbs the steps of the rich. It was honored by the Christ himself, who selectedfa physician as one of the beloved twelve. Read the story of'the human race, and it will tell you that here and there in every age and in every clime genii shed their light on their time and on their country. It has been declared that a joyous spirit is a good medicine, of which drug the class has an abundant supply. Yet we remember it takes a life-time to achieve success, aind that we will have to be patient. We realize there are great rewards in store for us. The business man is planning larger profits, but we are spending nights, days and years in hard toil preparing to save his pa- trons. But there will come the reward of confidence. The hour when strong men will stand upon the threshold of their homes with palpitating hearts and look for our coming as they do for no other thing in the world. There will come hours when fond mothers and loving wives shall look into our faces with pleading and hope, and last of all, the highest reward any person will ever have is simply this, when we approach the pearly gates where remedies are unknown, where an- esthetics are not needed, where pain is a stranger, where death is never seen, and hear the hosts within say, it walk in, Doctor, and take a front seat, for I was sick and ye Visited me. Then will the present Soph. console himself with' the assurance that, linis laborem coronat.

Indeed, so great is the renown of this class, that a'written history, so far as the present generation is concerned, is superfluous. Our past achievements have been so marked that all men are famlliar with our deeds of greatness. Were it not for the fact that the world would be poverty-stricken in knowledge, if the darings and deeds of this Class be lost, we would spend no more time in a permanent record. Now let no one suppose our unparalleled success as a class has come to us by chance, for such is not the case. We . began at the bottom, when, as little folks we were passed carelessly by and scarcely noticed by the busy world. But daily we applied our hearts unto wisdom, and so- surely did we advance, that today we enjoy the pleasures of knowing that all eyes are upon us, even those of the entire Faculty, who are quite familiar with our history. WAT; Though small in number, we are prominent in college enterprises, having furnished men for the Collegian management, the band, and also for football and basketball. As a class we are not unmindful of our destiny. We do not forget that the University con- trols the social, scientific, political and religious world; and some day we hope to step forth as the finished product of the only thing greater than ourselves-the -Willamette University. Now if the above is not strictly true to fact, the slight deviations which appear may be attri- buted to our following the adage, tlHitch your chariot to a star,'i and if there were anything higher we would surely throw the rope of our little sled over it. 62 ' v..au 1r Mow r '4', rug 1m M?! a H nut!

HISTORY We are the class of to7, and have come here to do things. To spend too much time on our studies is sloth, and to use them too much, for ornamentation is affectation. They perfect nature and are perfected by experience; for natural abilities are the natural plants, needing pruning by the study. Studies themselves do give forth direction too much at large, except they be bounded in by experience. , Wise and crafty students are we. We read not to contradict and confute, nor to believe and take for granted, but to weigh and consider. tt History makes men Wise; poetry, Witty; mathematics, subtile; philosophy, deep; elocution, eloquent; oratory, pleasing. So you see, we will be considerate, Wise, Witty, subtle, deep, elo- quent, and pleasing.

Without it there would be no other classes. They were once Freshmen and Will not deny the fact that every good thing has its beginning. The Freshman Class is, on the opening of school, a dorman is the germination of a mighty element. It soon grows. other ways. It branches here and there and in its all course. Although the Freshman is said to be the most des member of the Student Body-unless it be :1 Prep. Classes feeling their superiority, t seed, or factor, in the college.

The higher endeavor to give all odd jobs to the little freshie, to loust him in every rough-house, and to receive the honor of every meritorious act of the school. Notwith- standing all of this. it is rightfully paged in this history, that the Freshman Medics of l04-l05, 64 thirteen in number and the will-be M, Dfs of l08, have made their presence felt in every contest and have held their own with the greater numbered brother classes. This class was gathered from a vast territory and each represents an important factor. With the Atlantic breeze from North Carolina, the cowboy spirit of Texas, the colder wave of Iowa Oce-creama, the Wilson strawberries of Tennessee, the splendid Murphys from Nebraska; then with seven representatives from various parts of Oregon and one fair damsel from Washington, we feel that we have a variety of Class composition,-such as is capable of producing the best fruit of any kind, from good lookers to a Japanese soldier. ' Feeling that we can conquer our enemies, surmount every obstacle, we stand at the end of the path we have trod as Freshmen, and are ready to step upon the threshold of Sophdom. We would not forget the merits of our brother classes. We regard them with great respect and honor. As we think of them we are thrilled with the desire to be included in their ranks. With all this we would have them note: The Freshies are strong, The Juniors are fleet, The Sophs. and Seniors noted for big feet, And all are uncommonly hard to beat. 65 MYRTLE DUNCAN--u MYRTE ,, College of Liberal Arts She is pretty to walk With, And Witty to talk With, And pleasant, too, to think on.

What have we accomplished since coming to the halls of it Old Willamette? With enthu- siasm unequaled in ancient or modern history, we have entered into every college enterprise. In- deed, the new epoch of development and prosperity of this institution dates with the arrival of this class. We have become the pride of President, Faculty, and Student Body. When Oregonis first orchard, which had been growing on the campus for nearly a century, was condemned to be burned, the Class of 09 snatched from the flames a brand which was transformed into a cane for Dr Coleman. It 15 now numbered with the list of priceless relics. I11 athletics, as well as in class combats, our foes have been cast aside with broken swords. Woe unto those who in coming years shall meet with us on the rostrum or upon the sands of the arena. In the various organizations, ti The Stars ,i take a most prominent part, either as members or officers. We, however, like the high-spirited steed, whose life and energy knows no bounds, may at times deviate from the regulations imposed by the powers who reign. When the venerable piano was forced to descend, with tremulous voice and mournful tread, from its lofty abode on Olympian heights, and stand once more amid the tumult of earthly life, Who was to be thanked f01 the deed? Move on, ye who boast to be above us, lest ye be trampled in the dust by our ceaseless advance, and ye who are proud and frivolous beware lest you meet destruction coming upon you from HThe Stars. w, u COND YEAR CLASS 76 SE Second Year Class OFFICERS President, Frances Newcomb.

Soon after the opening of the school year they established a class organization and promised to furnish able members to the many organizations formed for the advancement of the students of tt Old Willamette, and they have in no respect fallen short of their airn. In the many athletic sports this Class bears a prominent part, and when class rivalry runs rife, its members invariably display an unwavering determination to uphold the honor of their Class, but always possessing true Willamette spirit, in as much as they regard the welfare of the school as much higher than that of their Class. They are also well represented in the various departments of literary, social and religious work. But we are not seekers after vain glory, the sole purpose of our course being to prepare us to meet lifeis duties and responsibilities in a more able manner, to tit us to perform the tasks that will be assigned to us, and to do something worth the doing, and thus ti make life, death, and the vast forever, one glad, sweet song. 78 v47??? 4 ,5??? ,, 4 XvaVMWg; ? x ?f?

WW AcULTIng A man has one brain of many faculties; a college has one faculty of e 1, many brains. Hence, although to each brain belongs a soul, it has been argued that a faculty, like a corporation, has no soul. Tl Now this is a matter worth thinking on; for. it is surely the height of impertinenee publicly to reflect on the Character of a being with a soul. Nevertheless we are here driven either to some serious reflection upon ENTRE-r'm the Fatulty. or to plain airy nothings. This latter we abhor. Imag- ine. then. our state! To save ourselves, we here maintain, albeit not without some qualms, that Che body called the Faculty ban no soul. What shall we say. then? Ah, leadership! That is the part of the Faculty, is it not? Then we will call this Faculty a generalization a major-generalization, if you please. There, once more we feel our feet on solid ground-a piece of satisfaction not to be deemed of light worth. The Faculty, ah, the Faculty! That body, uncreated, yet being; whose beginnings no man knows, whose endings are yet but phantoms 0f dim foreshadowings; the focus of innumerable streamings 0f scholastic tradition and culture; the star-point of light and direction for a new gener- ation of Scholarship and human service. The Faculty! toward whose becoming, a universe of celestial currents has borne agewlong; on whose being play rays from the myriad-hued spectra of student life, the heckered shadows of the Class-room, and ineffable harmonies of a young worldls ideals; and toward whose endings angels, principalities, and powers bend searching, awestricken gaze. But this will never do, and after all, we sing the Faculty, who are, not is! May they live and prosper, and their days be long in the land. 85 x wk, 4. w ,M r O ;V 3 I! Q ...., u- .4!

It is the court of final appeal in all matters which directly relate to the welfare of the student in general and which have any bearing,r upon the University, its faculty. and trustees. By its action all athletic and educational enterprises are supported, and,. 86 When in times of depression its aid is needed, its loyalty rises to the highest pitch, and, by her- alded resolutions of support and confidence, it so manfully throws itself into the coniiict that all seemingly tremendous obstacles sink into insignihcance and are entirely smothered by the forces of progress marching on to a larger and grander future. Old Willamettels student body is the glory and domestic life of the famous pioneer institution. The spirit it always manifests is proverbial. HWillamette SpiritH has ever been synonymous with such terms as Hcollege patriotism? Hfraternal cheerH and it Christian c011d11ct.H It is this spirit Which holds the new student and makes him feel himself to be a part of his school; and when he has finished his course or finds that he must leave school, it is this spirit which tugs at his heart and compels sincere tears of regret to bear witness to his great love for dear HOld Willamette, and her warm hearted students. It is a sacrificing student body. No matter what the cause, if it is but worthy, the students support it with such zest and earnestness that it invariably succeeds. Its business affairs are conducted with a systematic precision which bars all lethargy and inactivity. A student body taX is levied upon each member for the support of athletics. The oflicers are chosen from the several departments. The president of the associated students appoints a committeeman from each class, who, together with himself as chairman, form the executive commit- tee, audits all expenses and affairs of athletic managers, and reports upon all matters which are to come before the students for their consideration. 87 The Girlsi Student Jlssociation President, Lila V.

This association is primarily for organized zuork, and was formed to meet the requirements of existing conditions. It is true, the work has given us pleasure, but when did one fail to iiiid pleasure whose motive in action was to give pleasure and to do honor to others? The membership of the association is limited only by the number of co-eds at Willamette who are willing to bear their share of responsibility. Its work is to care for the social functions of the student body, and more especially to tender receptions to visitors, such as Visiting athletic teams. A number of very pleasant receptions have been enjoyed during the year, but probably the one most universally voted a success was that tendered our own Hfootball heroesi, at the close of their seasonis work. At this time each member of the team was presented with a little cardinal silk pennant embroidered with an old gold HWW, bearing also a small burnt leather football, with the date. As each was presented, one of the young ladies responded to a toast in honor of the recipient. 88 . zavvtaxwgww; . 9va , f? . . Wm ho .4 ,7 yw?d yyUh'm Illll, OFFICERS Director, Ivan G.

They made a tour through Eastern Oregon and Idaho, gave eleven concerts on the trip and closed the sea- son with a well received home concert. Such an extended La. tour as this has never before been attempted, but the Club had contidence enough in themselves and their program to believe that they could stand the test. At every point touched where Clubs from other institutions had appeared our Club was com- '7 , .. u a pared very favorably.

In a general way, this description may be applied to the Young Woments Christian Association for the t past year. Not a great deal' of publicity has been given yet it is safe to say, there is not a girl in school but has been at least indi- to our work this year .rectly influenced and helped by it. . With a president who is a natural leader, our work has been systematic and thorough. The bnsiness side has received special attention, and the spiritual side speaks for itself through our de- votional meetings and our love for the association. 98 The Bible study work has been of great interest, four classes having been conducted; three of these were in HSharmanls Life of Christlleone led by Miss Hales, met on Sunday morning be- fore the church hour, the other two which met during the week were led by Miss Holmstrom; the fourth class was in Whitels Old Testament Studies, and led by Miss Randall. A Mission Study class, held jointly with the Y. M. C. A., took up the study of India, with Miss Hewitt as leader, and unusual interest was developed. The mid-week prayer meetings gave way this year to the newly instituted college prayer meeting, but the mainstay of the association has been the five minute prayer meeting held each day at noon, and the devotional meeting with its address on Sunday afternoon. We come to the close of the year with girls added to our number for whom we are daily moved to thank our Heavenly Father. As we look forward to next year it is only with the hope of even greater success; we have the gain of past years as our foundation, and an eagerness to work out the plans acquired by Miss Schindler and Miss Hales at Capitola. as well as to prove the wis- dom of a Northwest Conference at Gearhart. But best of all we have the assurance that He who is the personal friend of each, stands ready to assist us as we unite in work for Him. 99 ., aja .uu-u.umnquMhuMMNah A. CABINET 160 .W, C. Y nullw.

Hewitt The Young Menls Christian Association of Willam- ette stands for that sound educational policy of St. Peter- HAdd to your virtue knowledge.H Believing that edu- cation is good only as it is subordinated to the ends of Virtue, the association strives to imbue the young men of the University with the spirit of Christian Chivalry, to equip its knights with the breastplate of righteousness, the shield of faith and the helmet of salvation; then to send them out into the world to wield the shining blade of scholarship in the interest of mankind. Though the range of its activities has not been eX- tensive, the association is to be credited with the promo- tion of that line spirit of brotherhood and Christian fel- lowship which exists among the young men of the Uni- versity and which is such a marked Characteristic of its student life. In all the wide educational domains of Ore- gon there is probably no institution that enjoys a more wholesome religious atmosphere. or a more broad-browed, big-hearted, virile type of Christian manhood, than Will- amette. And this is largely true because K-the Young -, Menls Christian Association has made it so, it having been entrusted with practically all the religious work among the young men in the University. Last fall the association was early in the held with 101 the Gospel artillery, and under the alert leadership of Mr. Miller, began at once a Vigorous cani- paign. The first gun was fired at that most enjoyable ttstagii party which was given in the Gym. under the auspices of the association. After distributing a wagon load of watermelons and bar- rels full of fun, Mr. Miller seized the propitious moment to press home the Claims of the associa- tion in a very manly and stirring appeal. Later, the joint reception given by the two associations to the new students was made a very attractive advertisement of the association work. Eight classes in the regular Y. M. C. A. Bible study courses were immediately organized, and under the efiicient leadership, this work has been made very profitable and enjoyable. The daily noonday prayermeetings conducted by the prayer Circle of the association have been well attended and have resulted in bringing the young men into close personal and spiritual fellowship, besides giving them a more felicitous use of that mightiest of all weapons in the battle of lifeethe power of prayer. The public meetings for men, held in the college every Sunday afternoon, have been addressed by the ablest speakers that the committee in Charge could obtain. The Y. M. C. A. conference for the colleges of the Northwest which is held every spring at Gearhart, is becoming a splendid factor in quickening the spiritual life and activity of the students, and Willamette association plans to send every young man who is worthy and willing to go. No one can attend these conferences, coming in contact as he does with the choicest collection of Christian manhood, without being uplifted, and inspired to new and nobler exertions. In these tremendous times, when life is so intense and when character counts for so much, a young man without a religious experience is fighting the battles of life with a broken sword. N0 college student should neglect this most important part of his education. To every student of VViIlamette, whether old or new or prospective, the Y. M. C. A. extends a cordial welcome; it needs your co-operation and you need the inspiration of its fellowship and the peculiar power of its religious life. 102 Y. N. C. A. CABINET 103 JP o D . o 5 SI . N .

Philodosian The Philodosizm Society is the oldest literary society for girls at XVillamette, having been organized since 1881. It is composed of college and academy girls who desire to cultivate ease and grace in extem- poraneous speaking, correct social deportment and the many other advantages to be gained from mutual ambitions for intellectual and social advancement. Duringfthefpresent year particular attention is being paid to parliamentary drill and social etiquette. Thetisociety hopes to be able to offer a lecture course in the latter, by some well-in- formed, efhcientFIadies. They have already had some of the ladies of the city present to speak to them. The2school year is divided into four terms, offlcers being elected for each term. $$$x 2 7g ? 1 7,7 I Philodarian Society The Philodorian Society was organized in 1883 by a few manly and ambitious studentseamong whom was Dean Hawleyevvho recognized the urgent need of a literary and debating society in developing the most priceless attainments of a collegiate education, the power to speak originally, forcibly and thoughtfully upon practical subjects, before a critical audience of fellow students. Founded for such a purpose, its aims have ever been in accord With the principles of its founders, and as a result it, together With its sister society, the Philodosian, has ever been the back-bone of literary endeavor at Willamette. The work has always been in harmony and besides furnishing the hower of forensic array at Willamette, they give joint meetings which are unsurpassed as intel- lectual social functions for the entertainment of a polite and refined public. The society recognizes itself to be a training school and therefore pursues an Uopen door pol- icy, restricting none Who are loyal Willamette students and Willing to work for the honor and glory of ti Old Willamette. It is Within the Philodorian's hall that the genuine, good, fraternal fellow- ship of the Willamette man is generated, and at the close of the school year their last program is given over to a rally night for their old school, and pledges freely and earnestly given to work for her best interests during vacation. .

On the evening of the second of November, ten young ladies met in the University Chapel for the purpose of organizing a new literary society, which would be a sister society to the Cole- man Literary Society, organized a few weeks before. The new organization was named the ti Clara Coleman Sorosis. in honor of Mrs. Coleman, the tt better half ti of our beloved President. You must not construe from our name that we intend to become more than sisters to the members of the Coleman Society, for such is not the case. The membership of the Sorosis is limited to sixteen, college girls preferred, and the object is literary and social rehnementf t Special stress is laid on parliamentary law, as well as the literary work, which includes read- ings, papers on assigned subjects and extemporaneous speaking. The tt Coleman Societiest, have jointly, with the aid of Dr. Coleman and the Trustees, furnished halls on the fourth fioor, which are very pleasant and conducive to the best of literary efforts. Although the Sorosis is but newly organized, it has already begun to take honors in the col- lege world, Miss Swafford having won the second place in the Local Oratorical Contest.

Hence it was, that with a just appreciation of the literary societies already enjoyed at Wil- lamette, early in the Fall term a number of the men formed a new organization for literary work. With the Society once organized, the hrst step taken was to secure for it the highest honors, as is evidenced by the fact that it was named for our President, dear to each student as a friend. Next, it was necessary to have a place to meet, and having been granted three rooms on the fourth lioor of the college building, the Coleman Society, together with its newly organized sister society, the Clara Coleman Sorosis, and aided by Dr. Coleman and the Board of Trustees, trans- formed these rooms into very attractive halls. As yet but few in number, and delayed as a new society by the energy required in ll getting under wayf' nevertheless, let it be rememberedewe are Willamette men, and determined to sue- ceed. Another year will find us taking our place in debates and literary work of all kinds. And our place will be in the front ranks. Nor must we even wait for another year. Already the society cheer has been heard as it greeted a victorious member. In the local oratorical contest each literary society was represented, and the victor, Andrew R. Marker, was our representative. Thus we were also represented in the state contest by the man who brought Willamettels name to the highest place it has held in years. But one open meeting has been given by the Coleman Society and the Sorosis; yet, we can claim for this that it was a success from both a literary and a social point of View. As we close the year, we thank those who have assisted us in our beginning, and bespeak from you an interest in our future work. 1 I 2 l gm t Ear i ; h'fr'm I Irv we '..; :l f wm: '1 1K ,- g; f ff: 4w; . , ' a': J '7 '1'! 3 A ' V 2.1; f ,$ :4.

They sent letters to a number of their friends and found out who would be willing to join such a Frat. XVhen school opened, a full dozen of the best students in the school gathered around the festive board, which our landlady had provided. Of course our Fraternity must have olicicers, and H. H. Markel was elected president; Charles E. Skidmore, sec- retary and treasurer; and Roy R. Knotts. sergeant-at-arms. This last officer was rendered neces- sary because of the rule that every new member must make an initiation speech. and as some ob- jected, he, being a husky football player, was duly installed, and right worthily did he serve. He was very useful in settling the numerous quarrels and disputes between Brothers Mosher and Trill, who were always getting into trouble. ll What would a Frat. be without a name? thought several wise heads, and hence search was made for a suitable name. It was thought that it must have a Greek letter or it would not be a Fraternity. As it was too much bother to get a Charter from one of the old established Frats, we organized a new one of our own, and gave it the appropriate and signihcant name, tl Eta Pif, One thing which did a great deal to unite the members into a feeling of fellowship was the rule that every one be called by his first name; so it was Roy, Charles, Wallace, Howard, Chester, etc. We numbered among ourselves coming doctors, ministers. lawyers. musicians and business men, who will make their way in the world and look back with a great deal of pleasure to the time we had together as we ll ate a pief' II4 JlI V'- J I w 1!?

Skidniore Apropos of the presidential election, a goodly majority of XVillamettels voters were organized for the purpose of lining up the ttdoubtfuls', and helping to swell the Oregon majority for Roosevelt. This Club formed a conspicuous part in the parade of the big republican rally held in this city. Each member carried a large megaphone through which was thundered again and again the ,Varsity Cheers mingled with HRah! for Rooseveltf 5 Not only with megaphone and voice did members aid the cause of the G. O. P., but also by a judicious placing of the X on the ballots. It was not necessary for the club to put any campaigners in the held although Dean Hawley, Chauncey Depew and several other distinguished orators offered to occupy the stump for us. After due consideration it was decided not to employ any campaigners for two reasons: First. The untiring efforts of the Science Department workingr with the most improved microscopes, etc., failed to discover anyone who had serious symptoms of voting for Parker. Second. At present there is not a stump on the campus and it was thought best not to cut down any of our niagnihcant trees. For if there were no trees where were the shade and if no shade what would the HQueen- ers do? 116 X ax h :wa g N mike x W t$ s xxx A a 4' x wV m R s Democratic Club Father of our Democratic host, The patriotts pride, the nations boast, The man of all we love the most Since Washington.

During the last portentous days of the late presidential campaign, it was apparent to everyone that the Democratic party was marching through a slaughter house to an open grave. The ominous tread of the arrogant and dominating political. party, rallying around the standard of the picturesque Rough Rider, foretold an overwhelming Republican ma- jority. But the spirit of that fearless fistful of Spartans at Thermopylae lived again in the Democratic minority at VVilIamette. Instead of shuf- fling supinely away back in the face of inevitable defeat, the young party patriots at the University resolved to fight, as did that heroic three hun- dred, to the last ditch in defense of their country. Accordingly they banded themselves together into the Parker-Davis Club and did what 117 they could to arouse their compatriots in a last, desperate effort to stem the threatened Republi- can invasion. The world has seldom witnessed such heroic devotion to a lost cause. Along with the stories of the unyielding heroism of that glorious bunch who died to a man in defense of the Alamo, and the unvanquished patriotism of Marshal Ney, standing defiant amidst the wreckage of his battalions at Waterloo, history will record the story of this intrepid band of student heroes who stood by their convictions until they were all shot to pieces, as it were, and had to be gathered up in a bedtick. It has been suggested that a marble shaft be erected to the memory of the Parker-Davis Club, bearing this inscription: h HStranger, tell the Democratic party that we lie here in obedience to its orders. 118 '0 cl?

The association has auxiliary leagues in most colleges of the country. Our league has a membership of about thirty students, and meets semi-monthly. At these meetings the various phases of the subject are discussed. Under the supervision of the association, local, state, interstate, and national oratorical contests are held. Our league has been in existence about two years, but as yet has not had a representative in this contest. 119 President, Secretary, T reasurer, W. R. Colbert, Ray Marquam, Elepha Starns, R. C.

'1QJi -h Wt N - h M: lutmh Ladies Hall One of the best and most interesting features of life at HOld Willamette is that life spent Within the walls of the Dormitory or the building better known as the Young VVomenis Hall. This girlst home is one of the best that can be found in the Northwest, for it is always filled With jolly, enthusiastic college stu- dents Who desire to make the very best of their college days and who endeavor to maintain the, reputation of our school. The hall has been recently remodeled on the interior and furnished with all the conveniences that any student could desire. In its old halls and parlors many a heart has been lightened and inspired to nobler and better things. The dinner hour, from six to seven dclock in the evening, is one of the happiest hours of the day. During this seemingly short period it is impossible for one to think of his troubles and hardships but that he throws them off and becomes young again as he listens, 121 to the joke and witty sayings which pervade the atmosphere of the room. A girl cannot imagine, unless she has witnessed it for herself, the pleasure and happiness which can be receiVed from the merry crowd gathered after study hours in the cozy corners, which, if they could speak, would tell many stories both queer and interesting. The spreads which are always an enjoyable feature of a studentls life are frequently indulged in by all. The Young Womenls Hall has gained in the past few years, a reputation which we are de- termined shall be wide and permanent. We are all greatly interested in its future welfare and prosperity and expect to see the hall, under the excellent supervision of Professor and Mrs. Mahafhe, become the center of social and intellectual life at HOld VVillametteW ' I 95 LADIESJ HALL AND COLLEGE OF MUSIC Jlrt Notes From the Studio HPenseeH a photographic reproduction of which is given on another page, is the latest work from the brush of Marie Craig, Dean of the College of Art. The original painting is in oil, life size, and was painted in four sittings from the model, Anna Eastham, a talented young art student. One of the chief charms of the picture is its coloring, the hesh tints being peculiarly delicate and life-like. Anna Eastham, Margaret Gill and Jessie Martin constitute the Class of 1905 and hope to re- ceive their diplomas in June. All three are earnest workers and will doubtless make their mark in the near future. Asa Fisher has been working in water colors this winter. Now that color is being used so extensively in illustrations, it is absolutely necessary for an illustrator to know how to use it. Mr. Fisher shows much taste and skill in his work already. His specialty is figure, either in black and white or in color, and he possesses undoubted talent for that most diihcult of all arts-portrait painting. Percy Huntts career as a caricaturist is already assured. His style is bold and effective, and bids fair to make the future guilty politician utremble in his bootsf' Caricature might be called a short cut across lots in the whole realm of art. For the rest of us, HArt is long and Time is ' , ! iieeting. John E11iott,Carrie Belknap, Maude Griswold, Lillie and Stella Hardwick, Sylvia Hewitt, Elwina Schramm, Freda Schindler and Laneta Young, all display more talent than the averagee- a some in marked degree. Anna Easthamis still life study of big red Oregon apples in a silver fruit dish, is delightfully realistic. She has caught the glow and bloom of the fruit, the ttshineit of the silver and the shimmer 0f the damask tablecloth, and transferred them bodily to canvass. 124 Helen Dechabach, Hazel Downing, Zoe Olmstead, Helen Perkins, and Dorothea Steusloff, of the childrelfs Class, are an enthusiastic band of little workers from the object, cast, nature and the hat. The Art Studentsl League, of New York, extends an invitation to the students of the College of Art to take part in the yearly competition for a free scholarship. This is one of the best Art Schools in the United States, having a list of instructors it wouldvbe hard to equal or excel any- where. One of the instructors, Mr. Henry McCarter, the well known illustrator, was a fellow student of Miss Craigls at Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts in Philadelphia. Professor Craig has an interesting collection of sketches drawn from life in the Pennsylvania Academy sketch class, of many of her fellow students, now famous men and women. J0 Pennell heads the list. He had only begun the study of etching when the sketch was made. He now stands at the head of etchers the world over. Henry R. Poore, Alice Barber Stephens, Colin C. Campbell, W. T. Trego, Elizabeth Bonsall, H. Latimer Brown, Frederick Waugh, Jerome Ferris, Will Birney, and many others, were all more or less promising students When these sketches first saw the light. 125 ' PENSEEi Painted from life for the Wallulah, by Marie Craig, Dean of the College of Art, Week! y Willamette Collegian Wallulah Y. M. C. A. Handbaok Weekly Willamette Collegian The Collegian is the official organ of the Student Body, and is a weekly, published each Wednesday during the college year. Its purpose is to encourage literary work of a practical char- acter, foster and arouse college patriotism and enthusiasm, and also to compile and disseminate such college news as Will be of special interest to students. Thus its field is broad and is circum- scribed within no petty limitations prescribed by a particular department or Class. It is strictly a University publication, and is the power which exerts the greatest unifying inHuenCe tending toward a centralization of collegiate ambition and endeavor. During the current year it has been increased in size and has more than doubled its news. capacity.

The meetings held each Monday evening at the home of the editor-in-chief were greatly enjoyed and looked forward to because of the rare bits of fun found sandwiched in between the strenuous life, to give it a relish.

They know. And so, it is with a feeling of regret when we think of the merry times, and a feeling of joy when we think of the labor, that we see our work drawing to a Close. But we wish to those 'who come after us all the pleasure that we have enjoyed-and hope that they may prosper. 130 .A . .rstd Y. M. C. A. Wendi? It is small. It is large. It is neat. It is useful.

HANDBOOK.-Pub1ished yearly by the Christian Associations. 132 Oratory As HThe pen is mightier than the sword,H so is the word which is spoken more powerful than the word which is written. History vouches for its patent influence and all nations, barbar- ian and Christian alike, have encouraged and cultivated it. Monarchs have been elevated and de- throned through its influence, tyrants have felt its sting, and the cause of right and liberty from time immemorial has been defended and advanced by its aid. It is not only the great uplifter, but also the great leveler, and is one of the most useful and practical elements in a college education. Willamette University was conscious of its importance in the moulding and forming of well poised men and women and founded the Department of Oratory. Other colleges in the state having also taken great interest in forensics, an annual contest was arranged under the direction of the HIntercollegiate Oratorical Association of Oregon, an associa- tion formed for the purpose of encouraging public speaking and composed of the Oregon Agricul- tural College, Albany College, McMinnVille College, Monmouth State Normal, Pacihc College, Portland University, Pacific University, University of Oregon and Willamette University This, organization has been in being for twelve years now, and still has the same membership as at the beginning, with the exception of Portland University which has ceased to exist. The annual con- test is held in rotation among the different colleges of the association, on the night of the second Friday in March; and the different colleges meet in force, and during the first half hour give full sway to the rooters Who Vie with each other in giving the yells of their schools and singing the praise of their orators. At the conclusion of the contest a banquet is given the Visiting colleges by the local institution. This is usually a magnificent social affairswhere college spirit and college jokes are all bound together with a close fraternal feeling which results in a more friendly and amicable relationship between them. 134 dunno I VI! 5.

Marker, the man who so successfully represented Willamette in the state contest held at New- berg, winning third place therein, is a man of varied attainments. He is a good example of the broad minded college student. A man of an exceedingly re- finedandt sensitive nature and possessed of an unex- celled appreciation of the beautifiul and sublime in lit- erature and art. His development, however, is not restricted solely to the valuable traits of Character and mind, but rising above the average man of his age, he also plays guard of the football team with such Vim and earnestness that all who play with him feel more conlident for his presence. When asked for some data in connection with his former life, llMarkfl as he is familiarly called, in his Characteristic manner, said: UWas found running at large at an early age in the wilds of Idaho.

X'xm7thx. kkwKVX ?NW Kym. Skunk? K$o mek N The football season of '04 was the best XVillam- ette has experienced for years. Near the Close of the season when the men had been well trained, had come to know and love each other, backed by the best coach we have ever had and by a united spirit of confidence emanating from Student Body, Fac- ulty and City, we had a team ready and anxious to meet any college in the Northwest or even Berkeley. The season began inauspiciously with defeat at U. of O. This should have been played 011 No- vember 5 instead of October 15. By that time our men would have been in much better condition. But with the prospects of a game 011 November 5, shelved, and its other date as the only alternative- we braved it and lost 011 a muddy held. The next important game was with Pacific, November 18, and proved an easy Victory. On Thanksgiving Day we tried out with Albany on our home field and won, 16 to o. This was the same score Multnomah had chalked against them so the coming game with that Club was the most interest- ing to contemplate. On the M. A. A. C. field, outweighed about twenty pounds per man, our valiant eleven battled against the Club men-held them at bay and were really their superiors at every point of the game ex- cept punting. By their timely booting they kept out of danger and by the aid of a decision contrary to the rules managed to score during the last few minutes of the game. Great was the rejoicing at the excellent showing our men made, but bitter was the thought of that unearned score. 138 ,1! I39 Coach ??ishop The coach of afootball team is not the whole team.

Girls, aask'erball The Girls' Basketball team of Willamette was composed of five of the pluckiest girls that ever bloomed forth in bloomers. Most of them had never before played in a match game, yet they did not fail to put up a strong fight in their first game on the home hoor, against Albany, which team later won the state Championship. On the spacious hoor of the Agricultural College Armory, against the swift farmer maidens, they lost by a few points, but the game was played with an earnestness and vim which showed that they were doing their best for HOld Willamette.H Lebanon High School and Chemawa were both defeated 0n the home hoor, and these games gave the Co-ed worshippers a chance to go wild. Enthusiasm runs high at Willamette at all times, and the Girls Basketball team has certainly deserved its share of all good things.

I42 .V Wk Boys Basketball The Boys, Basketball season ended with Willamette in the trio for the intercollegiate chame pionship for Oregon. The first game of the season was played on our own floor with the splendid aggregation from Newberg, a game which ended in a decisive victory for Willamette. This Victory at the begin- ning of the season was a great impetus for the encouragement of basketball; and the way in which the wearers of the cardinal and old gold upheld their insignia was a true manifestation of the spirit which is found in the breast of every Willamette athlete. The next game was played between the City Y. M. C. A. and our invincible quintet and was a repetition of the hrst. ' The game which we most reluctantly recall was the game played at Monmouth. , The floor was too small to permit good team work, and, although the game ended ingloriously for us as to score, we had every conhdence in our team, which played as they never played before. We regret very much that a return game could not be secured. The game in which our men showed what kind of stuff they are made of was that played on the floor at Corvallis. Although lighting at tremendous odds, the upholders of Willamette colors fought like demons, and never showed the white feather from the start until the finish; yet, while defeat stared them in the face, their hopes were undaunted, and in the return game they proved to their opponents that they not only knew how to play but also how to win. This game was the best exhibition of basketball ever witnessed on Willamettels floor. For the first time and the only time during the season, the old team got together, and such team work and passing was never witnessed in our home gym. This splendid playing was due mainly to Pollard, our HOld Stand By, who, as a center, has no equal in the North west;.also to Judd who has yet to meet his superlor as a forward. Captain Whipple showed himself not only to be an expert player but a general who knew how to handle his team. Swift-footed Miller was everywhere in a minute and proved him- self a mighty arm of strength. There is one more, Simpson. who is deserving of worthier men- tion than pen can proclaim. He has the stuff in him and with a few more years experience as a guard will have no peer in the Northwest. I44 i$?in MOth V4.3 '3. W wa 4.635-. n The last game of the season and by no means the least spectacular was played upon the Evan- gelical iioor at Dallas. The swift Dallas aggregation proved themselves to be the better players on their own floor. The quintet from Willamette were greatly handicapped by the loss of Pollard and Simpson; notwithstanding this fact, the men who tossed the sphere did all that could be asked of any team; they did their best, and Willamette feels proud of every man who upheld the colors of his Alma Mater. Dallas forfeited the return game to us, to the deep regret of every student. because we were sure of Victory and without doubt would have shown our Polk County friends how it is done. I This ended the Boys, Basketball season for the year 190405. Nt.;, le h u. 3m iii a $4 Iw- an in wk-..- m,k I . J This year, at the suggestion of the University of Oregon, the 01d Intercollegiate Amateur Athletic Association of Oregon has reorganized, and the meet of this association, Which is to be held June IO, at Salem, will decide the state Championship of Oregon. Willamette does not aspire to be state champion this year, but with the able training of Mr. Keller, good foundation for a future victorious team will be laid. Through the efforts of members of the Board of Trustees and other prominent men, a new crushed granite track has been put around the football field, and with this improvement our men will be able to train at all seasons of the year. Willamette has 110 star track men this year, but better, she has plenty of material, the kind that will in the near future, win many victories for the cardinal and old gold. The best men on the track so far this year are Miller, Ford, James and Lounsbury. All of these men are old track men and promise to shov to the other colleges on June IO that they are formidable antagonists. I47 Baseball F t Baseball at Willamette, as at other Oregon colleges, has in past years occupied a comparatively insignihcant place in athletics. This has been true in spite of the fact that the great national game has been given preference in all the large Eastern institutions and in practically every other state in the Union. It is almost universally conceded that, to the public and to athletes, the game of baseball is more popular than all other forms of athletics combined. Among all the different kinds of baseball, there is nothing so attractive as college baseball, for, in addition to the spirit of the game itself, there is added that other and more intense element, college spirit. A change of heart seems to have taken place in the last year, however, and with a team at .9? every university and at most of the colleges in the state, the great game promises to take, in Ore- gon, the place it already holds throughout the United States. The prospects for a winning team at Willamette this year are bright. There is almost an unlimited amount of material to choose from, and the fact that the squad is composed entirely of old players avoids the usual embarrassment of tt working up raw material. Games are being arranged With all the best amateur teams in the state, in addition to the col- lege teams. The schedule is a good one, and will include games With the University of Oregon, Columbia University, the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club, Hill Military Academy, Mt. Angel College, the Chemawa Indian School, and practice games with Dallas College, the O. S. N. S. at Monmouth, the Salem High School and the Eugene High School. I49 EEEEEES a?

CAMPUS TENNIS CLUB 1 5 I Campus Tennis Club Inasmuch as the majority of the members of the Campus Tennis Club for some years were actual students of the University, the game lagged through the vacation season because of the absence of many members at their homes and upon business elsewhere than in Salem; but when the by-laws were amended so as to take in former students and some others who evinced an extraor- dinary interest in the game, tennis again took upon itself new life and for the last two years the courts have presented a gay and festive appearance each evening. At any time very little ttposingl, has been done upon these courts, and while Vdimity, lawn, white iiannel and duck, along with shirts and waists of red, blue, and green have been in daily evi- dence, motion has been a too prevalent factor to allow any person or combination of colors to center upon one spot long enough to present a picture of ease. Our courts lie open to the west, and the game can be carried on almost into the night. Upon an evening when we experience one of our Old Oregonls gorgeous sunsets, with the Womarfs Hall and the main University Building in the middle distance standing tall and dark against a sea of Ere, one will forget all else for the time but that it is typical of the bright future of Old Willamette, and that we are a part and parcel of this grand old institutiOn. ttA thing of beauty is a joy forever.H What is prettier than a newly marked tennis court, with its perfect setting of grass. shrub and tree reaching up to sky-lineewhy it is a cameo,-ita thing of beautyH and tt a joy foreverf' because in after years some of the most pleasant recollec- tions of college days willabe of the jokes, tales and songs, as we sat late in the dusk on the bold grand stand for many years a piece of portable 4X4x16. Two years ago, HDaddyH presented a new grandstand to the club and as the treasury was a minus quantity a hous'e-mover could not be had, so Thielsen, Emmett and others carried it from down town. The following summer so much of it was whittled away that it was found necessary to build an extension 2Xon8 feet, and for the present season one will be erected having a seating capacity of at least eight. The courts will be put in perfect order, the lawn mower will buzz- whitewash will appear over night upon all the wooden backnet fixtures, up-to-date faucets, a log chain on the tin cup or vice versaman eight ton safe for the ttmarkerb and the HlineH over night, a machine gun and four cases of squirrel poison for those who play in heeled shoes tbreathe herel. Well-everybody will have it put up or shut up tduesl and that is the way the Campus Tennis Club will appear in its new spring suit in its fourteenth yearelgos. 152 WWW . .H.

Yet to travellers in retrospect these peaks of infinite beauty are held in pleasant, memory. Epoch marks as these, the Presidents receptions loom before us. Its features of multifold variety; its results a complete harmony, whether lights go out and candles sputter, whether the receiving row of dignified Faculties shake us one by one by the hand; whether the souvenir is our Presidentis face or his favorite expressions; no matter the program, no matter the decorations, we, having been there, know that the Presidents Reception crowns our year. Held at the Hall where many a nook and corner lurk, where cheery rooms and spacious cor- ridors abound, whether in Fall when choke of homesickness estranges the new-comer, or in Spring time when thoughts of approaching separation tinge with sadness the otherwise so gay 3 thronge we welcome the eve on which, Clad in our best, we climb the broad steps and twirl the bell. Then, as amid the hum and buzz of conversation or to the strains of sweet music we move from room to- room, a nod here, a bow there, stopping anon for a longer exchange, as weenever alone -seek quiet corners or descend to the dining rooms, we are conscious of the feeling that here, at last, is' college lifeethe college life of which we had so fondly dreamed. 155 ,7 1.: ? :E P 10 N Each of us, as we entered Willamettels halls, assumed the common name, it a new studentf, One other experience we had in commone we very soon laid aside this name and knew ourselves only as a Willamette man or co-ed. At the times, events followed one another in such rapid suc- cession that we did not realize the cause of this happy transformation; but looking back upon it later we saw that it was due to our reception by the old students, and that the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. played an active part in this reception. How could we forget those lirst two weeks and the pleasure they brought us? The first week, every one was talking of Saturday: lt Oh, youlll get better acquainted with her Saturday, etc. What did it all mean? Ah, we learned; for, after the V. W. C. A. reception Saturday afternoon, and in the evening the ll big time which the Y. M. C. A. provided in the Gym., each girl felt acquainted with every other girl in school, and each man with every other man. But this was not all. On the following week there came an invitation to a reception given jointly by the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. This was followed by an announcement in chapel of the same event. If it was Professor Hawley who made the announcement, he probably said, tl it is an opportunity for meeting one another, which no one should miss.H XVe went, nor did we re- gret it. During the evening there was an address of welcome from one of the students, and also from one of the professors, and these, together with the cordial greeting we received from each old student, made us feel that we were, indeed, one of them. 156 When one enters the University, his time is well occupied during the first two weeks in be- coming acquainted, accustoming himself to his surroundings, and in settling down to study. But at the end of that time he begins to hnd something besides his class work. During these two weeks the Literary Societies have been opening up their work for the year, and with their HWheels oiledH so the machinery runs smoothly, they, too, have time to take up some- thing new. And so it is, that at the end of the third or fourth week, the Literary Societies present a further interest to the new student, and by a joint reception to all students, hrst introduces him to their Circles through the social door. An interesting program is enjoyed, and there is usually something new as a feature of the entertainment. When the evening is over, many have found in the societies the llsomethingi, they need in addition to the class work, and hope to become members of some one of them; while all who must elect to deprive themselves of this advantage have learned to appreciate the societies and regret that their share of the benefits must, for a while, be only those which are open to all.

For five years or more, the older students have a distinct recollection of looking forward to the invitations given, for not only did they anticipate a glorious time-which they always hadebut also they found a question mark hanging on their tongues, as to what shape these little messages themselves would take. One year there was a ghost on a ball of red which enclosed the coveted words; another time brown paper burned into fanciful shapes, with a drawing of some special Halloweien feature sketched in one corner, bore the message; pumpkineshaped cards with eyes, nose and mouth in prominence, telling when, where and how, appeared the year following; and this last year an oldwvitch With her 123301121 carried the invitation on her skirts. d 1e . .

A ghost related to us one year a few of the things yet to befall us; an old Indian spoke our future in magical words at another time; and then again a wizard, with a deep voice, told the signs of the times and gave us salt and sugar to eat. That was cheerful. But we had Otcliier things to eat also-there were sandwiches of brown bread, beans, pumpkin pie, apples and C1 er. . After this came the stories around the fireplace as the lights burned low, and then the gOOd- nights, for the Hallowe'en party was a thing of the past.

Like many another tale of Old Oregon this story gathered color and direction before the char- V acters came to the country. Jason Lee and Anna Maria Pittman met in New York. uA charming lady,H thought Mr. Lee, lfbut I am not sure I should wish her for my wife, notwithstanding. So wont are single men to ponder a certain question, always the same, pertaining to the maidens they see. II Then came the time when Jason Lee, Daniel Lee and Cyrus Shepard were managing the Ore- gon Mission by the Willamette. - The solitude was absolutezeEvery man of them was unmarried, they kept batch in a log cabin, with never a white woman from the Pacific to the Rockies. HThis savage loneliness eats my life,H cried Jason Lee to his heart, Nbesides, the Christian family must be planted here if the Indian is to be elevated. I will write to the Missionary Board in New York to select a wife for me. They can send her along when Sarah Downing comes out to brother Shepard. III HA reinforcement for the Oregon Missions sailing around Cape Horne- disembarked at Honolulua-take first ship to the Columbia-gladies in the party? The good news was brought in 1836, in September, by Dr. Whitman,s company, which in- cluded the first white women that crossed the Rocky Mountains. And now autumn scarlet and gold must tarnish, then winter wail and weep But every day the lonely watchers by the Willamette and praying for friendly winds to waft them. great showers, and spring trip in all dressy and warbling. would be guessing the whereabouts of the voyagers, Rosy cheeked June tossed a letter to Jason Lee. 169 ltBrethrenW he cried, Hthey have come- eight adults and several children, all safe and sound at Fort Vancouver. Brother Shepard, your Sarah is there toofl Then away sped this modern Jason to fetch the reinforcement aiidutlie one that had been sent expressly for him. IV Fort Vancouver was a simple rectangular stockade. Within, facing the great double-ribbed front gate, stood the residence of the governor, Dr. MCLoughlin. Here in his spacious reception hall the ever hospitable doctor and his officers are entertaining the newly arrived missionaries. Jason Lee enters. HMr. Lee, allow me to present Miss Anna Maria Pittman, of New York? Every one present knows that these two are to be married if mutually suited. A dramatic situation at a psychological moment. In the fore-ground a man and a woman, facing, her right hand in his; she, a tall, dark lady, blushing slightly, palpitating a little; he, a mountain of a man, six feet four, with high forehead and blue eyes,-evidently delighted with the prepossessing lady before him. The back-ground is a little array of faces where amusement and concern are mingled. V At the landing in front of the Fort the canoes are ready, the Indian paddlers waiting, the Visitors bidding their hosts farewell. Miss Pittmaifs friends whisper, smile, nod, point,hthen embark, and leave her to seat herself in a canoe alone with Mr. Lee and a crew of Indians, who understand no English whatever. Happy arrangement. The Mission was sixty miles away. Two days the flotilla must leap under the paddles to reach the destined port. When has courtship had better chance? Miss Pittman will talk about her long voyage. The sea-going missionaries rejoiced in the conversion of the steward of the ship, and gave Christian burial to the remains of the colored cook. Every Sunday at the Presbyterian Mission in Honolulu they saw a thousand or more natives assembled to hear the gospel. Mr. Lee will tell how he came to Oregon,-on horsebackesubsisting 0n gameedriving cattle -encampingedecampingeaway up the Snake River preaching the hrst sermon ever delivered west of the Rockies-- at last reaching Fort V ancouver hungry and drenched. 17o Soon, very soon, Jason Lee would be leading his companion to discourse'about the dear home- land, the persons he used to know, and the events since he left. And he, in turn, would recite what the bachelors had been doing at the Mission. It was building and farming. It was baking and sweeping and mending. It was praying and preaching and teaching and trusting. It was getting one or two mails in a twelve-rnonth. It was dreaming of home and the past, and planning for the coming empire. Bye and bye Miss Pittman breathes out her hopes, her fears, her zeal. Mr. Lee sketches his previous life. Born in Canada of New England parentage, while a student at Wilbraham called of God to evangelize Indians, and again while teaching in the Stanstead Academy, he had already offered himself to the Wesleyan Missionary Society of London, when Dr. Fiske showed him the door that Providence had opened in Oregon. The little fleet kept on, now racing, now plodding. The argonauts shouted from canoe to canoe. They sang, they laughed. Many were the exclamations excited by the majesty of Hood and the beauty of St. Helens. The hrst night they camped where Portland is now, the second at the mouth of Pudding River. The third day they left the canoe at Champoeg, and galloped across the prairie on horses. Cyrus Shepard was in the kitchen doing his morning work. He heard the tramping of hoofs. Hasten, Cyrus, to brush up a bit. Sarah has sailed half way round the globe to come to you. Too late for preparation is Shepard. So out he comes to greet his betrothed, his big, tall frame incased in an old brown kitchen frock. At home now. A log cabinepuncheon floorseatticechimney of sticks and claye window lights of dried deer-skin-home made stools and tables-ehearth of clay and ashes. Humble? Yes. But here were the beginnings of Willamette University, and, in an important sense, of the State of Oregon. VI Father Time boasts another month. This lovely Sunday morning will be famous for the first Anglo-Saxon wedding service in all the Oregon Territory. Cyrus Shepard and Sarah Downing are to be married. In a grove near by the missionaries and their pupils are seated, and some wandering whites, and the Canadians from Champoeg with their dusky wives and half-Caste Children. Indian 171 women, too shy to enter, stand about, their beaded leggings and scarlet shawls making a gay fringe around the auditorium. A hymn, a prayer, some words about marriageethen, to the amazement 0f a11,except the two concerned, Jason Lee leads Anna Maria Pittman to the altar and calls upon Daniel Lee to marry them. When that is done Jason Lee pronounces Mr. Shepard and Miss Downing man and Wife. VII HBut I do not wish to go.H Jason Lee has been married eight months. All the chronicles testify to the perfect harmony of that union. uYou must go, Mr. Lee. We must send reports and appeals to the Missionary Board and a memorial to congress. You are the man to take them. HI Will talk it over with Mrs. Lee. HIf you feel that it is your duty to go, go, for I did not marry you to hinder, but rather to aid you in the performance of your duty. The reply has become historic. Mr. Lee went. At the moment of parting his poet Wife gave him an original poem ending thus: HFarewell husband ! while you leave me, Tears of sorrow oft will how; Day and night will I pray for thee, While through dangers you may go. Oh remember Her Who loves you much, Adieu. Five months later Mr. Lee had gone as far as Pawnee Mission near Council Bluffs. At night he knelt in his bed-room to thank God that the worst part of the way lay behind him. He knew not that, nine weeks now, by swift relays, a black-sealed letter had on his trail been following. Some one knocks. Mr. Lee opens the door. The black-sealed letter stabs deep. The infant son he never saw and his Anna Maria are dead. 172 .. l -7 ,. 3 a I N '23: 3-. r' .. U 'C 1 an t 3 . I t LA 5..

That junior tryout is to be tomorrow night, and if we donlt get some of our frat men to smoke up, the anti-frats will scoop the whole thing. We canit expect to handicap each one of the team; we'd be caught sure. What we have got to do is to find out their strongest man and knock him out. Yes, I know that it is a preciously delicate job, but Illl tell you, Brown, welve got to do it. If our team, which has been reused in the debating atmosphere of the Delta Phi, lets those anti-frats win egee whitakers! it will kill us. Our team thinks it's dead easy, and it doesnlt stand a show, unless something is done. Murray went out to the mountains Monday to see about his timber claim, and wont be back until tonight. and, to tell you the truth, I would not give a row of pins for the brains in Gray's and Jacksonls craniums combined. Welve got to do something and do it quick. I was looking over the library register this morning, and would you believe that that man Cole, the antils leader, has had out every book in the library that begins to bear on the subject? I looked over our teanfs list, and not one has begun to read what he has. Ilve got twenty dollars toward a buy-off for the judges, but since this reform song has been going the rounds, that will be a pretty risky business. The thing welve got to do is to knock one of their men out completely, and it had better be Cole. With him nonplussed it will be a walk-over for the frats. Williams. the speaker, was the leading spirit of the Delta Phi. Though he had never been able to command a place on a debating team himself, he felt that his personal honor was at stake in the contest between his society and the members of the junior class, who were opposed to fra- ternities and hence called ll anti-frats. The only son of indulgent parents, he had always looked upon college life as an inexhaustible reservoir of excitement and fun, its only detracting feature being the occasional necessity of study. Though a source of untold annoyance to his teachers, he had been the originator of so many schemes which had rescued the organizations which he chose to honor with his allegiance, and numerous school friends who, but for him, would have long since been expelled, that he was the joy of his colleagues and the dread of his opponents. Nothing seemed to daunt H Dad ll VVilliamsafor so he was called, because of his paternal air toward his I74 schoolmateseand frequently after the success of a doubtful undertaking he would assume a trag- ical pose and exclaim, ll Ah, Williams, thou wert born to wield the rod of Victory over thy chosen ones and to bring sorrow t0 the hearts of those who dare to oppose theef' Brown was one of VVilliamsl ardent admirers, and willingly aided in carrying out his plans, feeling complimented that His Majesty had seen fit to select him for an accomplice. At nine olclock on the evening in question, a low whistle sounded at Browuls door. It was answered from within and Williams entered. The room was dark and its sole occupant was evidently in bed. ll Sick, Brown? ll It Yes, old man, sick as a dog. I say, but its a scheme! Ilve got a bottle here on the table filled up with water, plus coloring of blackberry juice, and a box of capsules tilled with powdered chalk. I put the light out so that if any of the fellows should come in they would not notice. My cheeks have had a dose of water colors and I am in a high fever. Oh, my, but its great? It Voulll d0,H commented It Dad. 'l When he comes you had better be in a stupor and keep your face toward the wall. Got your medicines labeled, have you? ll ll Yes,H replied Brown, ti one every three hours if awake. Youlre sure he will come?H ti Gee whitakers, yes! Hels so sympathetic, held sit up all night with a sick cat. Well, so long, and Williams slipped out the way that he had come. Ten minutes later he knocked at the door of Cole, the leader of the anti-frat junior debating team. it Why, good evening, Williams. Will you come in? n it No, thanks; I just came over, Cole, to tell you that Brown has taken down with a Violent fever and is needing some one to sit up with him tonight. I have just come from there. The doctor says it may be the beginning of a lingering attack, though he can not be sure until morning, and he advised me to run down on tonightls train and send some of his folks up to look after him. They live in a little town and can not be reached by wire. If you can go over I will relieve you as soon as I get back in the morning.H ll Why. yes, certainly, Illl go right over. Good night.H A few minutes later Williams again stood at Colels door, trying a key in the lock. With little diiiiculty he gained an entrance. Then, locking the door after him, he lighted a small lamp which stood on the newspaper-eovered table. .. The principal lobject of his Visit was the first thing that met hls eyes. Fifteen sheets of care- I75 fully prepared manuscript lay on the table. He read the first page and exclaimed, tl Gee Whita- kers, but this is luck! He looked over the pages to see that he had them all. then folded the whole and put it in his pocket. Next he took a survey of the room. Everything bore an air, not only of economy, but of poverty. Cole evidently did his own cooking, for the doorless Closet disclosed some cooking uten- sils and a few groceries, while the stove was an old range ready for the junk pile. To his astonish- ment he discovered that the only suit of Clothes which Cole had must be on his back, for no others were in sight and he remembered that those Cole wore were badly worn. The bed was made of straw, and the only ornament which the room contained was the photograph of a white-haired, care-worn looking woman. Williams thought of his comfortable apartments in a twenty dollar boarding house and muttered invectives against the circumstances that made it necessary for him to be elsewhere tOnight. He picked up a stray sheet of paper. It contained a list of names of persons for whom Cole had apparently been honing razors, with the amount recived from each. Then he noticed a dozen or more letters all addressed in the same hand writing. He started to pick one up, but his eyes met those of the careworn face in the picture. She seemed to be reproach- ing him for his unkindness to her boy and he cowered before her accusations as he would not have done had he been listening to his condemnation from the lips of the university president. Remov- ing his hat he apologetically took from his pocket Kingls manuscript and laid it before the pic- ture. Then, from another pocket, he took the twenty dollars that he had laid aside to buy off the judges. Wrapping it in a scrap of paper, he wrote on it uFor your mother's sake,H and laid it on top the manuscript. Extinguishing the light, he quietly left the room. A few minutes later, Williams appeared in Brown,s room. Approaching Cole on tip-toe, he said, tt I met a man that was going down there and I told him to tell them. 111 stay with Brown tonight; you've got to save yourself for the junior debate and I havenlt.H Jan- .um N ..

Stories of the Old Third Story Rev. ?. :5. Knight I fear that some who read this will recognize these old yarns as now being told for about the three hundred and thirty-third time. Everything here related happened before the year 1862. The writer lived in the third story of the old institute, did his own cooking and all his studying in a room about ten feet square, and part of the time had a rooxn-mate. He has forgotten the num- ber of rooms in the story, but all were generally occupied, and we were all tl boys? Some of us were church members, all were earnest students, and all had ready eyes and ears for everything in the line of innocent fun. All that part of Salem now known as the depot ground and Yew Park was a wooded wilder- ness then, and we used to go out there to recite our H pieces,H and our elocution teacher often took his Class out for vocal and oratorical exercise. One boy in our crowd found it hard to memorize his declamations. He was seen one afternoon going down stairs with a book in his hand. When asked where he was going, he said: tt I am gomg out in the woods to commit this declamation to memory or die.H Two hours later he was seen coming up the stairs with slow, discouraged steps. As the boys greeted him he said: It Well, I have about concluded to diefl Our teacher in Latin one day said to the Class that he would be glad to have any member of the class bring Latin sentences found while reading to the Class at recitation time as side exercises in translation. Not long after the writer found DeCartesy celebrated sentence, tt Cogito, ergo sum ii a think, therefore I aml. One of the Class looked at it a moment and translated as follows: It I think I am some.H No one who knew that studenfs estimate of himself questioned the apt- ness of the translation. i In those days we used to play American baseball. in the plain, old-fashioned way, but we never heard of an inter-collegiate contest of any kind whatever. Of the dirty English mud-hole scramble called football we knew as little then as the boys of today know of Jiu Jitsu. In fact, most of us were trying to work our own way in school, and we had little time for such things. We had no money to spend on professional sports, and our fun was incidentally and accidentally woven into our daily life. Sometimes it even took the form of 178 - m D m l .3 1! a D 0' 4 r n m . c mischief. One New Yearls eve one of the students climbed into the bell tower, fastened a fine wire to the clapper, tied a long string to the end of the wire, hid in a tree some distance away and tolled the bell for the dying year. One of the professors, thinking to catch the disturber of his rest, climbed into the tower with a lighted candle, looked all over the bell, and, failing to see any- thing, started down. As he reached about the third round of the ladder the clapper gave the bell a stunning strokef The professor dropped his candle and disappeared in the darkness, and the doleful tolling for the dying year went on. It was common report among the students afterward that the professor believed in spooks. One of the best remembered jokes of the old time was one in which the joke was turned on the jokers. There was an accession to the third story crowd from old Yamhill, a modest appearing young fellow, and two of the boys marked him for a greeny. In great confidence they whis- pered to the other boys that on a certain evening they intended to take the young Yamhiller out tt sniping. Then some more whispering was done on the side. The boy from Yamhill was taken into confidence, posted on all points in the old sniping trick, and told to follow the lead of the two jokers to a certain point, and then vary the program in an unexpected way. When the appointed evening came they led him to the creek a little south of where the depot buildings now stand. They explained to him how to hold the sack, and then pretended to go up the stream to drive down the snipes. So soon as they were out of sight in the brush he dropped the sack and started at full speed for the Institute. When he arrived he was immediately hidden in one of the rooms. In a little while the jokers; came, telling in wonderful glee how they had played the stale old joke on the young greeny from Yamhill. The boys all appeared to join in the enjoyment of the joke for a time, but iinally some one suggested that the night was dark, that so unsophisticated a young fellow as that might fall in the creek or get lost in the woods, and the joke might end in a tragedy for which the jokers would be held responsible. Finally they began to look at the matter seriously and went out to look for their victim. They found the sack, but hein whose hands they had placed it was gone. For hours they tramped up and down the stream and out into the woods calling his name, while their ll sympathizing fellow students stood at their windows listening and laughing. Finally, well on toward morning, they gave up the search and started, wearied and troubled, for their rooms. And it was so planned that the hrst person they met at the head of the stairway was the Victim of their ll jokef, And When they heard the loud laughter that came fromo the rooms and echoed along I79 tt the narrow hall of the old third story, they began to understand that the jokers had been joked and the snipers sniped. But let no one dream that the third story boys were always dealing in jokes. It would be as reasonable to suppose that their only food was pepper and salt. They used pepper and salt at times, but mingled these with the more needful and substantial articles of food. Their fun was not their life, but simply the spice of life. They dealt not only with the sobrieties of life, but also with its solemnities. We had our lit- erary exercises, our hot debates, and our societies. And it is to the few of us still living an often- mentioned cause for regret that the 01d Philomatheon and Hesperian Societies have not been kept alive by the younger generation. In our literary meetings various exercises were given. At one of them a certain member was asked to read an original poem, being given a week in which to write it. F eeling his inability to satisfy himself, he read the following as an excuse: Nature 23 Poetry Is there no poetry in this bright world Save that which flows in verse or metred rhyme? Has Naturels voice no soft and solemn strains, No sounds to please the ear of harmony? Go thou and stand by yonder rolling stream And view the restless current as it flows Down toward old ocean. Dost thou need the sound Of jingling rhymes to teach thee that thy life Floats softly, slowly, silently away, I Even as the waters of that rolling stream Flow downward to the sea? Go climb yon cliff That overlooks the oceans wide expanse, When storm clouds gather in the murky sky, And rushing whirlwinds dash the feathered spray I80 .14. m I.-M --!w C$ WNW rgumfw 90$.v Against the surf worn rock. Dost thou again Ask for some stirring strain to fill thy soul With thoughts of grandeur and sublimity? Go when the moon is up and all the stars Have lit their lamps, and scan the azure dome, Where planets roll and stationary worlds Light their eternal fires and hold the reins Of planetary systems. Dost thou ask Some favored bard to strike his smooth-toned lyre That thou mayist hear the music of the spheres? No; Natureis poetry is not in rhyme Or measured verse. It burdens every breeze And breathes in every gale that sweeps the earth. Its spirit fills the soul with glowing thoughts That fettered genius strives in vain to stamp In metred lines. The brook, the rolling stream, The ocean With its never ceasing swell. The grove, the glen, the forest and the plain, The mount that lifts its bald and hoary head High up toward heaven; the revolving worlds That hll immensity with light, all speak A language of their own, a silent tongue, Man may not utter but may comprehend. 181 The Vacationist 73cm Geer Out, out, out of the town.

I82 7,, Hr II IILHTI .g, ..b- .VB-..YW .bh um bbw.., Gobm Ye Olde Willamette cSmdenfs One of the ti 01d Timersh has been asked to furnish an article for ti Wallulah,H concerning what has been accomplished by the old time students of Willamette. Here follows his response. It is almost entirely statistical. To moralize or philosophize at any length upon the infiuences that have radiated from it Old WillametteH through the work of her students during her sixty years history would consume more space than can be spared. A string of names and titles is sug- gestive just as are the tables of a census report. They invite contemplation and they may furnish inspiration. The brief summary which is here submitted, imperfect and incomplete as it is, shows that our Alma Mater has made no mean record. A large proportion of her pioneer students are still doing active and effective service, and it is a pleasure to know that Dr. Hoyt, who was president of the University in the early hfties is still in the harness, and that Dr. Gatch Who was president more than forty years ago, and who served in that capacity for fourteen years, is still doing effective work as the president of the Oregon State Agricultural College. i Some of the old University programmes of forty and fifty years ago, illumined as they are with the names of those who are still active and prominent in public life, effectually refute the sug- gestions of Dr. Osler that after forty a man is useless and after sixty he should smother himself in chloroform. On July I7, 1861, forty-four years ago, at an entertainment given by the Hesperian Society, one of the pioneer societies of the University, the following, among others, took part: C. B. Bellinger, now United States District Judge, subject, HWhat I believe.H George H. Durham, now a practicing attorney of Grants Pass, subject, ti iTis a time for memory and for tearsfi Rev. P. S. Knight, of Salem, who has since pronounced over 350 wedding ceremonies, and officiated at ovef 750 funerals, subject, it Liberty is too young to die.H After a lapse of forty-four years she still lives. . From 1860 to 1865 on the Society and University programmes the names of C. B. Bellinger, 183 7!, ,7 ; 7,4..3 P. S. Knight, P. L. Willis, George H. Durham, T. H. Crawford, JT'A. Sellwood, C. W. Parrish, S. C. Simpson, R. O. Dunbar, P. M. Denny and H. H. Gilfry frequently appear. On the programme dated February 24. I865eover forty years ago -there appear the names of J. A. Sellwood, still a resident of Salem, and for nearly a quarter of a century a teacher in our public schools; R. O. Dunbar, for years past a Judge of the Washington Supreme Court; P. M. Denny, afterwards Speaker of the House of the Utah Legislature; P. L.

Carter, late superintendent of the State School for the Blind; S. C. Simpson, afterwards State Superintendent of Public Instruction; and Henry H. Gilfry, later a member of the Oregon Legislature and for nearly thirty years past an ochial 0f the United States Senate. The prophetic topic of his oration was tt Visions of Ohicef, The name of William Galloway. now Circuit Judge of this District, frequently ornamented these old time programmes. The subjects of his declamations for three successive years, which were 't Plea for Ireland,,' tt Emmetfs Vindication? and tt Oppression ,i have given rise to suspic- ions that he is of Irish descent. Upon a joint programme of the Alka and Athenaeum Societies of the University for March 13, 1874. thirty-one years ago, appear the names of Geo. W. Belt, late Superior Judge of Spokane, Washington; Stanley 0. Royal. for many years past a leading member of one of the Ohio Confer- enCes; J. N. Duncan, late County Judge of Linn County; L. H. Wells. now and for more than twenty years past one of the editorial staff of the Oregonian; Miss Ida Hutton; now Mrs. Ida Vaughn, stenngrapher of the Oregon Supreme Court; Gertie Holmes, the well known principal of the Holmes Business College of Portland; A.

M Our .w Pages From a College Girlis Diary E. Belle Grouse September I, 1888.-Father and mother have decided that I am to go away to college, and I am so glad. I have always intended that I should. It seems to me that everybody in the world has equal chances to become great. I am going to iinish with honors and then go abroad a year or so afterwards. I havenlt told Jack as yet. Won,t he stare? September 2o.eEverything is about ready. Jack did stare when I told him. He always declared that when I went away to school he was going too, especially if I went to a co-educational school, as he didnlt care to see any other fellow spoil his chances. But, goodness! I cant make him understand that I don't believe in a girl tying herself down. The world is too big and there are too many opportunities to really be of some consequence. November 30.3Well, the first term'of work has passed. Mother sent my report to me from home, and its fine-all It Als.H The girl who sits next to me in chapel had a ll CH on her report, but she didnlt seem to mind it at all. I would have been terribly mortified. Jack has written often since I have been here. I never dreamed I would miss him so little. Most of the girls here in school have regular boy friends, and they seem to enjoy it. If they could only see things as they really are. I suppose their case is one in Which 'that old saying, It Where ignorance is bliss, ,, etc., is true. October 3, 1889.-It seems strange to be a Sophomore after fighting them as Freshmen all of last year; and it seems stranger to have Jack here. Mother told me he worrietl so about my not having anyone to show me a good time last winter, and about other fellows gettmg ahead of him. But, goodness! I haven't had time for such things. I have two committees to see to this year and several offices besides, so I will be kept very busy. November Le-The Halloween party was hue. Jack started from the very first to stay right by me. He did look lonesome, and Ilm sorry I said what I did to him, but I donlt want people to 189 think that he has any claims when he hasnlt. I met a Mr. Bing. he was very nice. He walked home with me, and I think that hurt Jack too, because I wouldnlt let him take me. Mr. Bing and I agree perfectly on womanls work in the world, and as to the great possibilities the times offer her. He said a girl with ideas like I had was bound to be heard from. Wasn't that clever of him! I asked him to call. Such men help a girl to widen and extend her Views of life. January 2, r8go.eChristnias vacation is over at last. I went home planning to have such a good time-but for some reason or other I diant. Jack didnlt offer to take me any place, and I know all of our set talked about it, for he always has taken me places at home. I never thought of his treating me the way he did. Mother never said a word either, just acted as if it was what had taken place all of our lives. However, I don't care especially. June IzeI was one of the ushers for the Seniors this evening; Mr. Bing took me and after we came home we sat down on the steps to talk for a little while, and he proposed to me. I donlt know what happened, but I felt scared and wished that he wouldnlt, and I told him so He didnlt seem awfully surprisede-he said he knew such a step would be contrary to my ideas of life, and although he had hoped that I might be willing to share my honors with him, he admired me for doing as I had done. We are going to be the same old friends, however. I thought it was so generous of him to promise me that. I hardly think Jack would. October LeI didn,t enjoy the Halloween party at all this year. I was tired for one thing, as I had so many things to see to. I had a letter from Mr. Bing today saying that he is to be married in a week or so, marries some WomanIs Club president who is quite popular among a certain set. Seems to me that he couldnlt have been very serious with me. If I were to be loved I should want a man to care for me more than that. I think Jack wouldnlt do that way. He had some new girl at the party last night and was wonderfully attentive to her too. I cantt imagine who she can be. I suppose she just naturally almost asked him to take her and he had to. Ilm going to phone for him to come up this eveningehe hasnlt been to see me for a week. I can : imagine what can be the matter. November 29--I guess Jack thought I was crazy last night, but I donlt care what he thought. Some way or other his taking Miss Magel to the party made me feel as if I didnlt have a friend in the world, and it seems that she is engaged to his cousin. but I clidift know that. We talked things over and Jack said something that made me cry. Its funny how a man gets scared to 190 death when a woman criesepoor fellow didnlt know what to do. But its all over now. I donlt see how I could ever have treated him so badly when he has been so kind to me all the time. He is'going to bring my ring up today. June 13, I891-A Senior, almost an Alumna at last. Jack is going to finish, too. I can hardly wait until it is all over, as we have so many plans for the future. I donlt see Why women spend their time doing things of little value when they can have such royal happiness if they only Will. My reports home this last year have been awful. I had a tt Dll just last month, but I guess there are other things in this world besides study. I saw Mr. Bing on the street last night. I had almost forgotten that I ever knew such a per- son. His wife was with him. She looks like an ambitious sort of a person, just the kind who would take advantage of everythingein the line of opportunitiesethat came along. He looks worn and old, poor fellow, I really pity him. But here is Jack coming for me, so I must stop. 191 The Fullback in the Wreck Andrew R.

Here's to our Alma Mater! Long may she be to others what she has been to me, and guide their steps from idle paths to paths of greater happiness and progress, as she did mine. Perhaps among the large crowd of new students who had lately entered college, there was no one who had looked forward to this time with more pleasure and satisfaction than Waldo Mor- gan. Of learning for its own sake, and the manifold joys it brings to him who triumphs, he cared little. But for knowledge as a step to power. influence, and prestige, he was prepared to struggle mightily. . Brought up in a home where order reigned supreme, and domestic machinery went like clock- work, he had naturally grown methodical and in a measure stilted. His mother was one of those women whose uprightness was so apparent as to be almost oppressive. Plain, without tact to make those around her happy, and never for one moment allowing herself to lose control of her feelings, she was anything but a companion to her only boy. He grew up believing that money and social prestige were the height of a sane manis ambition. Perfectly upright himself, he was intolerant of laxity in any one else and would not admit of there being such a thing as temptation. A man's mind is his own, to do with as he likes. he thought, so why need there be struggle to keep from that which was distasteful to him? He was selfish, too, and would not have sacrificed his personal interests to those of his best friend. And with such an education and such ideas did he come to college. To college. where temp- tations are many, and men are esteemed not for their contempt of such things but for their ability to rise above them and help others along the way. His hrst few weeks were busy ones. He was taking special work in addition to his regular course, and meant to make the most of his time. Athletics did not bother him at all. He did not mean to go in for physical work, except as he took long, daily walksausually alone-for he had With some astonishment he saw men whom he considered of very little worth the leaders of the college life-u-and with the professors, too, which aston- Inade no friends. on intimate terms with ished him still more. 193 One evening as he was coming briskly back to his room and his books, he met a classmate of his, arm in arm with the president of the student body. Now there was no one man in school with Wl'10111 he had tried to make friends so eagerly as with the president. Of a good family, pleasing manners and brilliant mind, he was the personification of all that was hne to Waldo Mor- gan. Yet, here he was in close companionship with one of the most awkward, unprepossessing boys in school, one whom Waldo had mentally termed a plodder. For the hrst time in his life the idea came to him that there might be some good beneath illsiitting clothes and awkward manners. During the winter many little things came home to him which rather opened his eyes as to what constituted character and made for popularity. He saw men of no means receive invitations to dinners and receptions Which he would have been eager to accept, and counted an honor. But very few came his way, and those were from a Mr. Peyton, an old friend of his fathers who also had a son in school; But in spite of the fact that he had known the Peytons so long, he did not seem to get on with the son, and sometimes when he was invited there to dinner, he met other young men students whom he knew only by sight, but they had their own interests, and spoke of pranks and games and meetings of which he knew nothing. He was outside their lifeeone among them and yet not of them. The last term a man came to room next to him who had rather an evil reputation. He was a mere boy in appearance, but old in the ways of the world. Oftentimes as Waldo was coming from some of his evening classes, he heard the clink of glasses in this room, and the sound of rather boisterous singing. Now this Jim Carton was a good-hearted, good-natured boy who was ready to make friends with anyone, and would have led a better, cleaner life if he had had some safer guidance than that afforded by his boon companions. Indeed, shortly before the summer vaca- tion, he once came to Waldols room and told a story which was rather in the nature of a confession. If, at that moment, Waldo had reached Out a guiding hand, I do not think Jim would have gone on in his present manner of living. But instead of a cheerful, hearty grip of the hand and a word to uplift, there came to poor Jim only a cold, lifeless argument against his mode of action. and when he left Waldo Morgan's room he was a worse, more desperate boy than when he entered. For such may be one manls inhuence over another. And yet Waldo had changed. If Jim had come to him in this fashion when Waldo had first come to college, I doubt if he would have Considered Jinils confession worthy of an answer. In his mind was surely but slowly dawning the fact that men are but men, and very human; for ti a boys will is the winds will', e-and we never can prophesy in which direction it will lead.

N.Il. . in .Ulbo... hQOu. $b...oa Qonm WWICifI .du.d w buoy! buvvi'u Im't' I' now For there had come a sore temptation to Waldo Morgan during this yearea temptation to profit by anotherls loss-and for a day it bewildered him; but with hands clinched and jaw set he stayed in his room alone until he had conquered. and could go out among his fellow-students with a clear brow and heart. All of which was bringing him to a realization of what it means to tri- umph over onels self. And though, at the end of the college year, he was not so sure of himself, he was more of a man than when he entered. In his second year he joined a debating society and was soon known as rather a brilliant ora- tor. He found himself looking forward to these seIni-monthly meetings with an enthusiasm which he had never before experienced. He delighted to pit himself against a formidable antagonist, and by sheer force of will and brain power overcome all arguments. He became better acquainted, too, with the boys livesetheir joys and sorrows-and learned to sympathize with them in their defeats. About the middle of the year Jim Cartonls name came up for admission to the society, accept- ances of names being always decided by a majority of votes. Now, on this particular evening Waldo Morgan as Vice president was, in the absence of the president, conducting the meeting. When Cartonls name came up there was an equal number of ayes and nos, which left the matter in his hands as the temporary president, so his vote would be a decisive one. For a few moments thought ran riot in his brain. He knew Carton to be a rather dissolute fellow-and yet it might help him to come hereebut what if he should corrupt our boys? Well, if it does him any good, we will be repaid. lIYeSK, came the presidents voice, full and strong. And so Carton came into the club. From the iirst he took great interest in all the debates and was considered a hard opponent. Of winning manners and ready speech he soon made friends with those whom he did not already know, and in a couple of months was elected treasurer. By the end of the term everything was running smoothly and the society had never been in better con- dition financially, when some slight irregularities were noticed in the handling of the funds. Naturally, when this became known, Carton. as treasurer, was suspected. Finally, one blustering, rainy night, as Waldo sat by his fire pondering over the outcome of the rumor, the door was softly opened and Carton entered. it Morgan,H he said, It I want you to help me. You know what has been said of late, and it is all-true. I have taken money-.U I95 HSit down, Jim? said Morgan very gently, II and donlt tell me any more than you wish. Whatever you have done, is over. I have confidence that what you will do, will be very different., I tt Morgan,H said Carton, It if you believe that, I will do betterf, He settled down in a Chair and was silent a while; then, vehemently: HI took it to keep going. Ild made a rather heavy drain on my allowance the first of the year, and thought just to borrow the money till I got to work in June, and then pay it back. But that is all off now,H at which he relapsed into gloomy silence. It 0, donlt give up the ship, Carton. What man has done, man can do, you know, and men have outlived greater follies than this. Besides-ll Yes, but my position. Thatls off now. Who would want a fellow that couldnlt be trusted with a few paltry dollars? Waldo had not known of Cartonls having received the promise of any position, and 111- quired, ll Whafs that, Jim? 'I ll Bank at Condon. Assistant cashier. But therels no use in thinking of that now. Waldo saw that nothing could rouse him now, and thought of waiting till morning to speak further with him. They sat a while in silence. Then Carton jumped out of his chair and made for the door. It Come in the morning, Jim, was all 'Waldo said. And Jim simply nodded in reply. Now the next day was Friday, and in the eveningr there was the society meeting. Waldo was called away directly after breakfast to see a friend of his who had been very ill, and so the prom- ised meeting between the two boys did not take place. And in consequence of Waldo haying missed his usual two hours of study in the morning, he was kept buSy at the time he always kept for a walk or a talk. He decided 'to dress early and go by way of Carton's rooms, hoping to have some conversation with him before time for the meeting to be called; but as he was leaving the hall he received a iphone message asking him to come over to Adams, whom he had visited in the morning. It Well, thatls right on my way to Cartouls, and Illl not stop longfl he thought. When he arrived at the sick room, Adams was sitting propped up by numerous pillows and looking very much better than in the morning. He waved a yellow slip at Waldo and said- It Here, look at this, and tell me what you think of itfl 196 It was a telegram from Adamsi mother, saying: H.fiWill start by eight-thirty train. Hope you are better.H II Now, therels no earthly use for her to come trotting down here, and I just believe Iill send one back telling her not to come.H II If you are going to send an answer before she starts, you will have to be about it. It is now i, tconsulting his watcm tI seven-twenty-five, so that don't leave much time. H Say, thatls sofl He hastily scribbled an answer: II Donlt come. Better. Out in couple days. Will write soon. II Thatis not, so to speak, the strict truth; but I wont have her worry.H He was really much improved, but the doctor had told him to make up his mind to a couple of weeks in bed. ii Say, Morgan, can you take this down? There,s no one here I can send, and you see that it gets off all right. Do as much for you some day. Much obliged. Hurry up? as Morgan rushed through the door. It was some distance to the telegraph oilice, and, just missing his car, he started on a fast walk, that sometimes broke into a run. There was a few minutes' delay at the ofhce, and then he started back to the meeting. II Iill be thirty minutes late, anyway, he thought, II but I am not on till the last, so it does not matter so much.H However, at the meeting things had taken a rather unexpected turn. The president and a few of the members had decided to bring up the matter of the shortage in as tactful a manner as possible, so as to reflect on no one in particular. With this in view the president arose, and, after a few preliminary remarks, said- II Before the Close of the present term we should arrange all matters in a methodical manner, so as to cause no confusion When we reorganize next Fall. In View of this, I Wish to speak of some mistakes which have been made in our finances of late, and ask those who have charge to rectify them as soon as possible. If those who have this to do will go over the books carefully before our next meeting, they Will probably find their mistakes and can correct them. During all this speech Carton had been sitting with his eyes fixed on the president in pitiful appeal. Once he started to rise, but sank back as if his courage had failed him. At the conclu- sion of the talk there was silence for a moment, all eyes being turned carefully away from Carton, 197 for he was a favorite and they did not wish to see their suspicions confirmed in his face. Suddenly they were startled by the sound of Cartonls voice sayinge It You need not shield me; I am the oneethe only oneeaccountable for any irregularities in the money matters. I took it intending to pay it baCk-the old story you will saye-yes, the old story, but I did mean to make it good. every cent of it; but fate is against me. Illle Here the president arose and motioned kindly for Carton to be seated. tt I want it thoroughly understood? he said, It that-ll But here he was interrupted by a noise at the door. The sergeant-at-arms was admitting some member who was late. As he came into the room they saw it was Waldo Morgan, flushed and breathless, but with a smile on his face. He knew nothing of the turn of events, and was expecting only the usual round of singing and debates; but when he sat down in the chair nearest the door, the president continued- It I repeat, we make no accusations, for we consider that no member of our society would do that which was dishonest or unmanlyfl Waldo, startled, looked toward where Carton was sitting, and at that moment their eyes met, Cartonls with a desperate hopelessness in them. Without a moments hesitation, and knowing nothing of Cartonls confession, he arose and strode to where he was in plain view of them all. tt You are wrong, Mr. President,H he said, throwing back his head dehantly. It There is some one here who would be dishonest enough and unmanly enough to do even that. And it is I-you understandel. Whatever punishment you may inHict, mete out to me; and I will take it only too gladly, for my crime deserves to be punished. I am-ell But here he was interrupted by such a storm of applause as had seldom been heard in the old hall, and cries of, It Morgan! ll tt Hurrah, for Morgan! were heard on all sides. When the commotion had somewhat subsided, the president turned to Morgan and saide tt Morgan, a university that can turn out a man like you is a blessing and an honor to any land. Mr. Carton confessed before you came in, and your courageous and noble sacrifice of all that a man holds dearest has made ,us all feel, I am sure, that the sacrifice shall not be in vain. As president of this society I feel free, without consulting the members. to state that all shortage shall be made up among us, and no word of this shall go beyond those of us who are heref' Ringing cries of tt Yes, yes, came from all parts of the house, and the president went on a lt It is such acts as this that make us love our Alma Mater as we love our country, with a patriotism that is undying. 198 There was no meeting after this. The boys stood in groups and slapped each other on the back, shook hands a dozen times, and exhibited the usual signs of men who wish to conceal their deepest feelings. Waldo was silent, but the boys all gave him some sign of their pride in him, and passed off pleasantries with Carton on every subject except the one nearest their hearts. Bye and bye Waldo and Carton passed out together, and as the boys left the building and went out into the night, they saw, walking down the moonlit path, Carton and Morgan, and Car- tonis arm was over the otheris shoulder.

It was a pleasant ride, for the grass was green, the sun was shin- ing, and the birds were singing sweet carols.

In the cool of the evening, Wallulah retired to her tent, where she told the fortunes of the various Willamette students as they came and went. Very few escaped this ordeal, but not all of the prophesies were overheard. Those that were are recorded here. You, she said to Bill Bailey, are very bashful for your age; not for your size, however. You wi11--you have met the fair young man whose blue eyes Charmed you, whose smiles have Rader- ated until they have made you sleep and forget that aught save himself and you are--. Your fu- ture is a happy one; pass on. He who paused next won the admiration of the fair VVallulah at once, because of his strength and might. It You. she said, tt I almost weep to say, are doomed to a great disappointment. The dark lady you love will love another before many moons have passed. But take not to drink- ing; Win tey antsy hope for the best. It Mabel, means queen, or beloved of women, or something of the kind, began the next tale of woe. It I see snow-capped mountains, and beyond that vast plains of the central states. But I have lost the trail. However, you will be found some place on this plalu. In the mean tune I see a school room, a college.H Wallulah yawned and the maid departed w1th such a sm1le on her face as would capture a Fort of any kind, even though it might try to Dodge. Then the fortune teller was heard to laughe-long, sweet and mus1cally. ll Why, you, she said, between her ripples of mirth, to the new-comer, It you are a man of experlence, along cer- tain lines, some of them l Gracelessy lines, too. But your future 15 what amuses me. Pardon, for you will be happy? The dignity assumed by Wallulah as the new man took the chair, was a contrast to the 213 laughter of but a moment before. it You are too frivolous, she whispered, ll get serious-then find a clime where ltis always a summer time, and forget that you have the weight of a nation resting upbn your shoulderseand let her-yes, let her sing,et In the Good Old Summer Time'e and be happy, president of the United Statesefl she stopped, she choked, and Ronald hastened to call for helpebut she had recovered in time to tell the fortune of the one who came to assist her, a slender maiden, with golden hair and brown eyes. ll You will assist many an unfortunate one to recovery, you will mend broken heads, armseand broken hearts too, but there is one- a great medicine man, whom you do not yet knowehe, Hebut at VVildals questioning gaze she became silenteH You will know him when he comes-wthat is time enough.H And while Wilda mused on what had been said, her equal half held out her hand. H Oh dear. for you there is the ocean and a man of warwyou will be near the heart of Uncle Sameand better. near the heart of the one you think of most.H Then it was Anna who came singing down the path and paused at Wallulahls tent. UCome in, child, come in,H said Wallulah. ll Ilrn happy to think you came to me at this twilight hour. First loves come to us all and we learn and profit by our experiences. The hardest part, my clear. is finally returning. the ring to him who placed it on your finger. But that will also come, but do not be troubled, my child, for all the sunshine has not passed with George? it And you,H she said, speaking to our hale, young orator, llare destined to become famous in the art of speaking and will cause many to look after you in wonder and admiration. When you have finally made a Mark terl in the world, it will not be through your own efforts alone, but be- cause of the maid with the dark eyes who has been your helpmeet in the college daysfl llAhJ, said Wallulah, as Paul Beach silently entered and seated himself at her feet, l' you are a true young man, indeed. Ilve watched you all through the year, and have observed with great joy, your constancy to the Northern Star. With all the charms and allurernents of the West, you have proved faithful. ' Gertrude was next to appear before the Indian fortune-teller, with all the ease and grace which she had acquired through her months. of study. ll You will have a career. Though I see that you, too. were foolish once, and fell in love, but that a nobler thought came to you, and now you will read beautiful verses and stories to many people, and will, by your love and goodness, lead them in pleasant paths of thought and study. But do not worry, my child, at the end of the path there is a bower of roses, and methinks I see a face peering between them. a face which has grown sweeter by the years of waiting, OlFling him not away. Wallulah stood in the tent door and watched the last one departing. ll Yes? she called after him, ll trill away. and some day echos will follow after the applause that you will call forth from the audience as you pass the stage.H He turned. lifted his cap. and vanished down the path. ll Now, said Wallulah, settling herself before her lire, H Illl have a two years, rest. 214 L i...

A Last Word A last word is always considered necessaryeby a woman-and so in order that the tradition may not be lost in this, a co-educational school, we hasten to add the last word. It is not a word in retaliation, for we have no need of such; not a word of apology, for we have done the best we could and feel that such is not for us to speak; not a word of mercy, for we believe those who have received roasts, jokes and nudges will take them as they were meant to be taken, with the best intentions and a heart laugh; but it is a word of thanks to those who have so kindly helped us when we needed help and cheered us when we needed cheer We thank the Trustees for making the book a possibility; and Mr. Ford, our business man- ager, for the conscientious manner in which he has given his time to make the financial part of the annual a success to such an extent that we did not have to N skimp our ideas.

The Medical College of Willamette University was brought back to Salem less than ten years ago. Handicapped by lack of suitable buildings and equipments, it has steadily grown and improved under adverse conditions and circumstances, until now it has reached first rank upon the Pacific Coast. The Penitentiary, Insane Asylum, Hospital and Sanatorium, afford abundant opportunity for the study of every disease. Clinical instruction, which is the ideal method for obtaining a practical medical education, is therefore unsurpassed. It is also with much gratification that we are able to announce, that plans and details are now being prepared for the erection, during the coming season, of a modern, well equipped and up-to- date College building. This will supply the one great defect and embarrassment that has hereto- fore existed. With the completion and equipment of this bu1lding we conhdently predict a very permanent and successful future.
