To one who has not known the spell Of thy enchanted ground, Should I thy mystic power tell, 'Twould be but empty sound; 'Twould be but as a tangled rune To him unskilled to read, But to the heart that beats in tune, It brings a thrill indeed: It brings a thrill indeed.

Although the head be flecked with snow, A yearning stirs the breast, E'en as volcanic fires glow Beneath a white­capped crest.

And thought of thee illumes the night With radiance of the day.

And through its joy­compelling light Can sweep the gloom away: Can sweep the gloom away.

Among the mansions of the soul, I love one echoing hall.

Ah! who can tell the endless roll Of scenes that deck the wall ?

Xo storms this fair abode invade; There reigns eternal Spring; And flowers blow, but never fade.

And birds forever sing, And birds forever sing.

—R. A. S.

"Columbia" EXTRACTS FROM MESSENGER, APRIL, 1906

"More than a hundred years ago, one of the fine old country homes in Virginia was "Kingston," near Petersburg. Here lived Mr. and Mis. Robert Walker, whose home was a center of culture and hospitality. * * * There were two daughters, Clara and Mary.

It was the elder sister, Clara, who left "Kingston" as a bride, and came with her husband, Mr. Philip Haxall, to Richmond, where they built this home and called it "Columbia." * * * In 1832 Richmond College had made its beginning, at "Spring Farm," five miles from Richmond. In 1834 the trustees bought from Mrs. Haxall the property of Columbia, and the whole institution was housed under this roof, using the upper floor as dormitories; the next for lecture­rooms and library and the basement for dining­room, chapel and so on. * * * In 1866, Dr. Tiberius Gracchus Jones became President, and took up his residence at College. * * * Since then various Professors have occupied it in turn."

IR^lanb IF^all The main edifice of the Richmond College building was projected as early as 1854, but when the Confederate War suspended all College work in 1861, only the north wing had been completed. This large structure was named for President Robert Ryland, who had been with the College from the beginning. In its principal hallway the Trustees placed a handsome tablet in memory of Dr. Ryland's great work for more than thirty years. This building contained the administrative offices and many dormitories. It was burned December 25th, 1910.

XTbe %ibrar\> Builbino The south wing of the main edifice was erected in 1880, as a memorial to J. B. Jeter, D. I). It was dedicated to Library and Museum uses. It cost $40,000, and is a handsome structure. The first floor, containing twenty thousand volumes, catalogued and accessible to the student body through the entire day without fee. The furnishings are substantial and handsome. The valuable paintings and other works of art give an air of elegance as well as utility to the Hall. The alcoves give the opportunity for quiet study and re­ search.

The Museum Hall is spacious and beautiful. The painting and frescoing cost $1,000.00, and is universally admired. There is a fine collection of casts of celebrated statuary. Curios and objects of much interest from foreign lands engage the mind and please the eye.

Cbe Central Bullblng After the War, the Trustees resumed building operations, and in June, 1872, the corner stone of the central building and tower was laid. The con­ struction of this building greatly advanced long­desired facilities for more thor­ ough college work. Into it went a spacious chapel and four additional lecture rooms and halls for the Mu Sigma Iiho and Philologian Literary Societies. As the Greek Letter Fraternities were introduced into College life, they found rooms in this building also, and later the Library and Museum were provided for temporarily.

ENTERED Richmond College in January, 1847. At this period the Col­ lege was in the country. Only a year or two before the elegant Mayo resi­ dence had been destroyed by fire, and the tall trees and neglected shrubbery around it effectually obstructed the view of the city. Indeed from this point to Henry street stretched the common, over which roamed herds of city cows, and across which beaten paths led to different parts of the city. To the north, a heavy growth of pines on both sides of the railroad, shut out the view of Mr. Nat Howe's residence, on the site of which Hartshorn College now stands. All our athletics were practiced on a swing consisting of a long pole attached to an oak on the side of the road—now Broad street.

Near "Science Row," in a plain negro cabin, resided "Old Aunt Aggy," one of the "characters" of the College premises. As I recall her molasses cakes, her scrambled eggs, her hoe­cakes made of flour; T feel assured for the hundredth time that nobody has ever made any like them since, and that her art perished with her. The bad hoys occasionally worried her very soul; and as I write these lines I can recall the scene of her yellow cur, flying in terror across the premises, with a tin­can tied to his tail, while the rascally "Academic" watched the scene from a safe hiding­place, and Aunt Aggy made the air blue with threats that she "was gwine right straight over to the big house and tell Mr. Ryland what dem little rascals was doin' 'long her dog." "x" * "x" At morning prayers in the chapel—since used by Doctor Puryear as kitchen—after the roll was called, one of the "ministerials" was called upon to read a chapter and lead in prayer. At breakfast this same student was expected to ask a blessing. Among a set of hungry boys and men, there is too often a lack of devotion; and frequently have T s een a score of hands raised over the plates of buscuit, and when the "amen" was pronounced, nearly every plate on the table would he empty. Some students, by a dexterity unknown to the Greeks and Romars, having appropriated half a dozen biscuit while others had none.

The story was told, indeed, on one more enterprising fellow, upon whom de­ volved the duty of "saying grace," that with an eye to business, raising his hand reverently, and duly intoning the words, "For what we are about to receive, may the Lord make us duly thankful," by the time the word "receive" passed his lips, he swept his hand down into the biscuit plate, and when all eyes were opened, it was found that his wants, at least, had been duly provided for. * * * There was but one society at the College during its early history—the Mu Sigma Rho. T sh all never forget the first meeting I attended. It was held in what was known as the "Academic Hall." The din and disorder that pre­ 13

vailed before the society was called to order were perfectly appalling to a country boy, who supposed that everything at College would be conducted with a sort of literary propriety. Ben T. G , now a most grave and learned judge in one of our Eastern districts, was darting about the room in a short­cut calico dressing grown, yelling at the top of his voice, "The society will please come to disorder!" * * * In some way, the soubriquet of "Lunatics" was fastened on the students of the College at this period. It is said that some passing marketman, who had been teased and worried bv the students, finally jumped down from his cart, pulled off his coat, and, throwing it to the ground, declared that "he wasn't afraid of every lunatic in the old asylum, and he defied the crowd." The boys adopted the name, and it was in common use for many years. * * * What is now known as Hollywood cemetery—sweet resting­place of our sainted dead—was at that time a dense forest of oaks with a single grave.

Through these valleys and over these hills, the hoys wended their way, in the months of Hay and June, to bathe in the canal or the river, and, returning by moonlight, made these groves ring with college melodies. * * * The traditional practices of toe­pulling, ringing the College hell at mid­ night, or cutting the rope so that it could not he rung for prayers next morning; putting a goat or goose in the lecture­room, etc., were faithfully kept up. One singular freak was indulged in almost every session. Doctor Ryland had a milk­white mare named Clara. Every now and then some of the more mischiev­ ous boys would shave her tail of every hair ; and, when to show his independence, the Doctor would have her brought out and saddled, and mount her to ride to town, the spectacle would he so ridiculous, that even the gravest "ministerials" could not suppress their laughter.

1 he walk from the city to the College at night, was often attended with danger. "Screamerville, ' with its fierce dogs and low groggeries, was a point at which no one lingered. Tt was related of Doctor Ryland, that as he returned late one night from a meeting at the Eirst church, he heard rapid footsteps he­ hind him, and at once suspecting danger, quickened his pace. It happened to he a student who was following him, and who, recognizing the quick and elastic step of the Doctor, and knowing his timidity at night, determined to join him.

Looking around, and seeing that the man was rapidly gaining on him, the Doctor hurried on until, almost exhausted, he stopped on the College stile to catch breath. As the pursuer came up he recognized in the fancied highway­ man, one of the oldest and most pious students at the College, and exclaimed.

"Well, T , you have frightened me almost to death."

ORX of the brains and brawn, the strength and substance of men; dowered with the hope and faith of our forefathers; crowned with the loyalty and love of succeeding generations; full of years, the college now ap­ proaches the threshold of a new day.

The sun has waxed and waned 011 th e aged structure's yesterday of near century­long service; today, obsolete it stands, its course finished; tomorrow, laden with painfully sweet memories, it will slumber in the graveyard of the past, and the spirit that so long has flourished there will seek a new abode.

The years have come and gone with their record of unceasing service; years crowded with memories of the men who have lived and labored within those walls, learned to love them, and left the influence of their personalities behind as they went forth to continue in the world the work commenced in college. The college has known and served many men of whom the State and Xation have reason to be proud—educators, authors and journalists, mission­ aries, soldiers and statesman, business men—men of many professions and occupations. It has known the boys and the men of generations; hunters of knowledge, pursuers of fame, searchers after truth, they all have come, so­ journed for a while, and gone out from the institution better prepared for the battles of life, bearers of a sacred spark from a divine fire to the problems of the home, the community, the State, the Xation, and to the countries beyond the seas.

And how loyal the sons! And how grateful the State! For, when in the hour of need the call went forth from their Alma Mater for assistance, noble was the response, and today, another home, a splendid new edifice stands, a shining monument to the loyalty of her sons and the gratitude of the State.

What a past Richmond College has to be proud of! What a present to be thankful for! What a future of promise! What a hope of immortality!

WILLIAM HEKSEY DAVIS WINDSOR, NORTH CAROLINA

"And the Artist marvelled at his Creation."

Applicant for M. A. Degree; B. A., 1912; Sigma Phi Epsilon; Varsity Club; Varsity Football Team, 1908­09, 1909­10; President Freshman Class, 1908­09; President Sopho­ more Class, 1909­10; Assistant in Physics Laboratory, 1909­10; Instructor in Mathe­ matics, 1911­12; Instructor in English, 1913­ 14; SPIDER Staff, 1910­11, 1913­14; Tanner Greek Medal, 1911­12.

"Big" Davis they named him, and the name stuck because truly appropriate. Big in stat­ ure? Yes, but that's the smallest part about "Big" Boy. He's a giant mentally. Weird stories are told of how he masters Anglo Saxon. Greek has become English to him, and he won the Tanner Medal with a perfect examination. All this would seem to indicate cold mentality, but to know Davis is to be in touch with a warm, generous nature, ever ready to help and inspire. To have him for a friend is to possess a priceless comradeship.

And not only in the mental gymnasium has this "big boy" li.ved, but he has excelled, too, in the physical realm. lie made a name for himself along the football line. As an artist for the Annual he has aided with much original work. And what is the one weak spot? He was unable to resist Cupid, hence the frequent holiday excursions down into Carolina; and we are inclined to think she was lucky when she captured this man with the larger aspects and broader views of life.

29

JOHN ALONZA GEORGE WASHINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA

"Coming events cast their shadows before!"

Applicant for M. A Degree: B. A., 1913; President Senior Academic Class, 1914; Presi­ dent Philologian Literary Society, 1912­13; President Varsity Club; Varsity Football Team, three years, Captain, 1913; Editor­in­ Chief MESSENGER; Assistant Editor SPIDER, 1912­13­14; Intercollegiate Debate, Randolph­ Macon, 1912­13­14; Athletic Council; Execu­ tive Committee, R. C. A. A.; Class Baseball, three years; Nominating Committee R. C. A. A.; Best Debater's Medal Philologian So ciety, 1912.

After winning his bachelor's degree, George came back to master the opposing teams of the Eastern Virginia League in football; and this, his inspiring leadership effected last fall. The senior class needed him and called George to be its president. As Editor­in­Chief of the MESSENGER he has turned out one of the best magazines the college has ever had, and its thick editions on our shelves will long re­ mind us of the untiring editor, and recall the numerous ways in which he has striven to further the interests of his Alma Mater. We cannot accuse this warrior of falling a victim to any of the co­eds' wiles. For this we are truly grateful; we cannot say how many of the "fair" have walked on air the day after receiving one of John's smiles, but we hear that many of them have been jealous of the fortunate one after Philologian Open Nights.

"Cap" has been a leader of men at college, and we predict that his success at old R. C. V. will prove but a prelude to his great useful­ ness in his prospective study of law.

"Hit 'em hard, Cap, we're rooting for vou!''

30

JAMES HENEY KIMBALL BICHMOND, VIBGINIA

"Diligence is the mother of good fortune.'

Applicant for M. A. Degree.

You Co­Eds who want to know the date for your Junior­Freshmen tea, you Field Day Com­ mittee, who wish to escape the rain—here's your man. Kimball can tell you whether the glorious sun will send its kindly rays or whether the clouds are going to "bust."

Nor does his wisdom concerning the weather keep him from being an English scholar of some note—ask "Metty" or any of the mem­ bers of English C. His systematic industry overcame the resistance of the "Princess," and she now lies conquered at his feet. But our friend is not so bold as one would think from this exploit; in fact, he is rather reserved and dignified, but his shell is well worth the breaking, we have no doubt.

31

GEORGE GARLAND ANDERTON SALUDA, VIRGINIA

"Along the cool, sequestered vales of life He holds the even tenor of his way."

Applicant for B. A. Degree; Phi Gamma Delta; Mu Sigma Rho Literary Society; Base ball Manager, 1912­13.

George evidently had the precept, '' speech is silver, silence is golden" instilled into his youthful mind very effectually. Some times one can hear him speak if he is approached cautiously, but George's silence doesn't keep him from being a politician; witness his base­ ball managership of last year. Fritz Jones realized his worth and took him for a room­ it at e. He wanted a good listener for the in­ undation of verbosity with which he effer­ vesces. George is the "silent partner" in the firm of Anderton and .Tones, who maintain a book and stationery store in a grotto under the Pavilion of Epicurus. The object of this corporation is to make the Dutchman's one per cent: buy for one dollar and sell for two.

32

LOUISE KYLE BALDWIN RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

'' The calm of self­reliance.''

Applicant for B. A. Degree; Secretary John Marshall High School Club, 1912; Historian Sophomore Class, 1913; Vice­President Wo­ man's Self Government Association, 1914; Vice­President Northside Club, 1914; Anti­ Crammers' Club; Girls' Tennis Club; MES­ SENGER St aff, 1914; SPIDER S taff, 1914.

We all envy Miss Baldwin just a little. And is it any wonder? She is so entirely and abso­ lutely efficient in everything which she does, whether it is exercising "pasteboard proclivi­ ties" in the Bridge Club, tripping the light fantastic, or being a perfect friend (ask Miss Gray). Unlike most of the rest of us, she is never flustered and in a hurry with "so many things to do at the last minute." The systematic way in which she works has made her college career one of remarkable smooth­ ness and success. The students wonder how she manages to get along so easily and yet accomplish so much; and how greatly she is valued by the authorities here is shown by the expression of a desire on the part of Miss Ryland to endow a scholarship in her favor, in order to keep her with us always. Richmond College would be very fortunate if such a desire could be realized, but we understand that Miss Baldwin is looking toward a larger field of activities.

33

ROBERT ELBERT BISCOE FREDERICKSBURG, VIRGINIA

"He whose goodness is part of himself, is what is called a real man."

Applicant for B. A. Degree; Mu Sigma Rho, Chaplain, Censor, Treasurer, 191213; Inter­ society Debate, 1913; Assistant Track Mana­ ger, 1912; President Tennis Club, 1914; Presi­ dent Junior Class, 1912­13; Secretary Y. M. C. A., 1913­14; Assistant Business Manager MESSENGER, 19 13­14; Treasurer, R. C. A. A.

Here is a man eternally silent, unutterably calm. For four years he has pursued in quiet an unruffled college life. Moving slowly, al­ ways with that same placid stride, he is the symbol of impressive dignity. And yet, strange paradox, he has taken an active inter­ est in all affairs of college life. Biseoe has been an inter­society debater, Junior Class president, has written for, and is associate editor of the MESSENGER. In athletics, tennis and class baseball have been his major sports.

He is a man liked by all of the students and his honors have come unsought, but not un­ merited. For here is one of true worth in all the dimensions of life—he feels deeply, thinks critically and is absolutely sincere; and yet, withal, there is a saving sense of humor about Biseoe that stamps him as a genial companion and friend, in whose company the moments pass quickly. One of these days he is going to speak, and when he does it will pay you to listen.

34

GEORGE WASHINGTON BLUME RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

'' He hath a light spirit and yet not carefree.''

Applicant for B. A. Degree; Zeta Xi; Class Historian, 1914; Varsity Football; Varsity Club; SPIDER Staff, 1912­13­14; Vice­President Philologian Literary Society; Associate Editor MESSENGER, 1911­12­13; Dramatic Club, 1910­ 11; Y. M. C. A.; Tennis Club, 1908­11.

And here is what we call a good fellow, and we are not "damning him with faint praise."

Bluire has lived among us, and laughed with us, and jested with us—just because it is his nature to be alive and doing. Blume isn't noted for many scholastic records, and Math.

B. especially, has been a source of much in­ somnia. But we think he is more human for this failing; and besides, when it comes to literary work, such as aiding the MESSENGER and bearing the brunt of the Annual work, he shines resplendently. And he's just full of grit! For four years he came out for the football team and scrubbed and "took his medicine" at the hands of the first team, and always without a murmur, until he made the Varsity. A In a Mater has always held first place in his affections, and he has loved her as lie has his friends—almost too well. But this but argues him a man whom we like, and in whom we believe.

MARGARET LOUISE CLENDON RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

"She has two eyes so soft and brown, Take care!

She gives a side­glance, and looks down, Beware!"

Applicant for B. A. Degree; Secretary Sophomore Class, 1912­13; Secretary Woman's Self Government Association, 191213; Captain Woman's Basketball Team, 1912­13; Treasurer Woman's Athletic Association, 1912­13; Sec­ retary Northside Club, 1912­13; Secretary Senior Class, 1914; President Woman's Self Government Association, 1913­14; J. M. II. S. Club; Girls' Tennis Club; Crammers' Club; Chi Epsilon Literary Society; Co­ed Basket­ ball Team.

The most characteristic thing about Madge (except her rosy cheeks, which however, you soon get used to), is her bright smile—"and like the sun, it shines on all alike." She is the most beloved of the Co­eds, and that our taste is not unwarranted is evinced by the fact that the Anti­Co­eds love her too. It is to Madge that the younger and more unsophis­ ticated ones among us go for help and infor­ mation; it is to Madge that the older ones go for cheer and inspiration. Iler ex­ treme popularity, together with the fact that a yet­to­be Episcopal preacher first applied the term, has earned for her the name of "Every­ body." And how well she merits the title!

As a basketball player, as a social luminary, as an all­around student, as a recipient of honors and a bearer of responsibility, she rises far above the standard, and her college spirit has never been questioned. SHE loves every­ body; so why should not WE lo ve Everybody?

ASA SOUTH CRABTREE RASNAKE, VIRGINIA

"Not a n an of iron, but of live oak."

Applicant for B. A. Degree; President Philo logian Literary Society, 1913­14; Censor, 1911­ 12, Secretary, 1912­13, Chaplain, 1913­14; Asso­ ciate Editor MESSENGER, 1913­14; Secretary Volunteer Band, 1912­13; Secretary of Mis­ sions, Y. M. C. A., 1912­13; Secretary Sopho­ more Class, 1911­12.

This man of the hills came to college with the determination of a Joshua—it has never left him. His free­born spirit rebelled against the accustomed infringement on natural rights by upper classmen, and he is one among the few who succeeded in bluffing the Sophomores during his rat year "Ace" has left a record of high scholarship in all lines of study.

Doctor Loving learned several new principles in Physics from him which will doubtless be inserted in the next edition of the text books.

That little former college experience has brought a laugh from the class at times. His faith in the mountain people is unlimited. If you don't believe it abuse them before him and see. Ask Mrs. Bingham. Political cam­ paigns furnish food for the mountaineers, but it even permeates the atmosphere of so­ ciety halls, so Crabtree was forced to join in with the others in self defense. He's going to China, where there will be no more politics.

VIRGINIA LEE CRUMP RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

'' Iter ways are ways of pleasantness.''

Applicant for B. A. Degree; House Com­ mittee, Woman's Self Government Assoeia tion, 1912­13; Anti­Crammers' Club; Co­ed Basketball Team; Girls' Tennis Club; John Marshall High School Club; Chi Epsilon Lit erary Society; Woman's Athletic Association; Artist for Annual, 1914.

Yes, dear friends, it all belongs to her, every strand of it, though that may seem rather hard to credit in these days of scanty locks. Virginia, however, has other wealth besides her hair, and her extremely patriotic name. This tall girl can do many things, testi­ fying to a very versatile nature, from draw­ ing clever cartoons of the other girls, to get­ ting about the best marks in any class she takes, be it Math or Spanish. This last so quietly and without a bit of excitement, too!

Iler work is always done, while the rest of us are wondering how to begin. In making wide and extended inquiries as to her character, we can find but one thing against her in her whole college record; once, accidentally, but with an inexcusable lack of tact, consider­ ing the circumstances, she took a seat be­ tween a certain boy and girl who wanted no obstruction in their way. So much for the evils of co­education!

DENNY CULLINGSWORTH CULBERT MARION, "VIRGINIA

"Men, like bullets, go farthest when they are smoothest."

Applicant for B. S. Degree; Phi Kappa Sigma; Baseball Manager, 1913­14; Assistant Manager 1912­13; Treasurer Y. M. C. A., 1913.

"Denny"—student, optimist, baseball man­ ager, social light and politician—is a con­ spicuous figure on the campus, especially around Memorial Hall, which he haunts in­ cessantly. His chief occupation now is dodg­ ing parallel and chasing the wild balls "slug­ ged '' by batters to keep them from the clutches of the scores of admiring kids that throng each practice. In these later days his conversation has dwindled to two questions, viz: "Have you seen Ancarrow or Coach?" and "Heard of anybody else being cut off the team?" In truth, Denny's hopefuls have been the cause of many wrinkles appearing on his usually serene and care­free brow.

To gaze on that placid face you'd never guess it, though. They say the young Demos­ thenes made copious use of pebbles to cure the fatal stammer, and while Denny has not such great cause to be free from impediments of speech, we imagine that he is undergoing similar treatment at present. Maybe he has substituted mush for pebbles, though.

AUDREY FRAYSER DILLON RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

"Blessed with that charm, the certainty to please."

Applicant for B. A. Degree; Woman's Self Government Association; Woman's Athletic Association; John Marshall High School Club; Girls' Tennis Club; Anti­Crammers' Club; Artist for Annual, 1914.

The picture herein presented is not at all like Miss Dillon. In reality, she has a very angelic expression of countenance, which, per­ haps, accounts for certain notable Jasperian episodes in her career. Although we are very reluctant to sacrifice her that much, we wish that one of the Jaspers might be successful, if only to keep her away from the Philippines, which, we hear, are trying very hard to get her. Audrey, however, possesses that rare quality among women, a scientific mind, and even the Philippines may fail yet; for her re­ markable conquests, in Physics A Laboratory, especially, have attracted universal attention.

Rumor has it that she is intending to return to college next year to complete her studies in that science, and, quite incidentally, to get an M. A. degree. We hope she will!

HARRY GORDON DTJVAL RHOADESVILLE, VIRGINIA

"Vanitas vanitatum, et omnia vanitas."

Applicant for B. A. Degree; Pi Kappa Al­ pha; Executive Committee Mu Sigma Rho, 1912, President same 1914; Intercollegiate Debate, 1913; Associate Editor MESSENGER, 1912­13; SPIDER Staff, 1914; Y. M. C. A.; Foot­ ball Squad, 1911­12­13; Baseball Team, 1912­ 13­14.

You behold the hardest worked man on the campus—he is so overwhelmed with work that he doesn't know where to begin and con­ sequently goes to certain fair co­eds for ad­ vice every day. Other classes and other duties may be "cut," but that beloved Li­ brary period—never. Such is his assiduity to the latter that he has gained the title of Alcovist­in­Chief. No one disputes the title, either. But Harry has the stuff if you can rouse him. Witness his proficiency in debate last year. In such esteem is he held in the Literary Society that they elected him Presi­ dent. To show his versatility he even aspires to be a football player, and is said to be quite a baseball pitcher. If his mirror does not ruin him and if he can be prevailed upon to bestir himself we predict great things for Harry. He's young and the young are ever 41

EUGENE NORFLEET GARDNER FRANKLIN, VIRGINIA

"There is no index of character so sure as the voice.''

Applicant for B. A. Degree; Pi Kappa Al­ pha; Treasurer, Hall Debater, Critic and Vice­ President Philologian Literary Society; Inter­ Society Debate, 1913­14; Secretary of Mis­ sions, Y. M. C. A., 1913­14; Declaimer's Medal, 1911­12; President Tidewater Club, 1913­14; Associate Editor MESSENGER, 1913­14; Assist ant Baseball Manager, 191314; Track Squad, 1912­13­14.

"Fraulein" is a perfect lady, with the sweetest, peach blossom cheeks you ever saw.

In this day and time when "puellae" pre­ serve pinkness only by prompt and persistent use of paint, we are at a loss to determine how Miss Gardner has been able to keep up to scratch without outside assistance, but we finally decided that her excellent track work preserves her brilliant color. Yet Fraulein is not a fly­up­the­creek young lady. On the contrary, she is very reliable, and if you want anything done and done on time, just ask her to do it. Sad to relate, however, she is wedded to a very inconstant one, for hand­ some Harry hasn't the slightest compunctions about leaving his old lady for the frivolous Co­Eds in the Library. We only hope that Fraulein's love for the college will cause her to return for the M. A. degree next year.

RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

"A countenance in which do meet Sweet records, promises as sweet."

Applicant for B. A. Degree; Secretary Wo­ man's Athletic Association, 1911­12; President Woman's Athletic Association, 1913­14; Vice­ President Junior Class, 1912­13; Junior Rep­ resentative to Annual, 1912­13; Chi Epsilon Literary Society; Northside Club; Crammers' Club; Basketball Team; Dramatic Club; Wo­ man's Self Government Association.

Miss Gary is an exceedingly difficult person to understand. If you don't believe that statement, talk to her for a few minutes, and observe her vocabulary; her words are so long and unusual, that sometimes you wonder whether she is laughing at you or not. There was a certain Mr. E here about two years ago, who was also afflicted with this long­word habit, and many people seem to think him responsible for Miss Gary's acquir­ ing it. So great is the power of association!

Another characteristic of Hazel's—sarcasm!

"Woe be unto all ye" upon whom her sar­ casm falls! When you see her toss her head and smile triumphantly, you n ay be sure some poor victim is suffering. However, they seem to enjoy the .pangs, for they invariably "come back." Besides, this sarcasm is not Hazel's most prominent trait. The first thing that everybody notices is a certain air of romance about her face and manner, which closer acquaintance reveals to be the cover­ ing of a lofty idealism.

ELIZABETH MOSBY GRAY RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

"In the final analysis, beauty is nearly syno­ nymous with intellect."

Applicant for B. A. Degree; Secretary Freshman Class, 1912; Representative to SPIDER; John Marshall High School Club, 1912; Vice­President J. M. II. S. Club, 1914; Girls' Tennis Club; Dramatic Club; Anti­Crammers' Club; Woman's Self Government Association.

Miss Gray thinks a great deal more than many people would believe. Her appearance would seem to indicate that she does not need this accomplishment, but in her are the two supposed incompatibilities, brains and beauty.

Among the most conspicuous of her recent attainments are the ancient languages. Ask Doctor Harris and Doctor Montgomery. She has all that Richmond College can give her in this respect. Miss Gray also carries more classes than she needs to graduate, a thing which few of us have the courage to do; and, despite her fears and tremors in regard to Math A, she carries them well. Moreover, she can teach a Sunday School Class, or shine in society, each with the same ease, and air of being exactly in her place.

WILLIAM THOMAS HALL VERNON HILL, VIRGINIA

"His voice was soft, gentle anil low."

Applicant for B. A. Degree; Academic Class Orator, 1914; Chaplain Secretary and Vice­ President Philologian Literary Society; Asso­ ciate Editor MESSENGER, 1 912­13; Joint Ora­ tors' Medal, 1913; Vice­President Virginia State Intercollegiate Oratorical Association, 1913­14; President Y. M. C. A., 1913­14; Presi­ dent Intercollegiate Prohibition Association of Virginia; Glee Club. 1911­14; Reader, 1912­ 14; Mandolin, 1908­1913.

"Pawson" is a familiar figure on the cam­ pus. He is to be seen almost any day except Saturday and Sunday, at which times he could readily be found at church exorting the breth­ ren to remember "the Lord loveth a cheerful giver," or else up to his neck in good fried chicken. As a social light he would be hard to beat, as he is in constant demand over the 'phone—so much so that his long­suffering neighbors usually yell for Hall whenever the bell rings. His proclivities as a Glee Club member are startling, and his abilities re­ ceived a merited recognition when he was in­ stalled as choir for the College Chapel. Bro­ ther Hall's fame as an elocutionist has spread afar. No one who has ever heard his read­ ings can ever forget them. Yea, verily, he may be a little curious in spots, but with all his faults we love him still, and few men there are on the campus who have not felt his hearty handshake and heard his cheerful, "How''" the world serving you?"

WILLIAM TALMAGE HALSTEAD WEEKSVILLE, NCBTH CARO LINA

"The endearing elegance of female friend ship."

Applicant for B. A. Degree; Critic Philo logian Literary Society; Member of the I)e bating and Forensic Council; Secretary Y. M. C. A., 1912­13; Tidewater Club; Tennis Club; Business Manager of the MESSENGER; B usiness Manager of the SPIDER.

Another Tarheel who has not failed to up­ hold the reputation of the sons of the Old Xorth State. A many­sided, easy­going fel­ low who greatly impresses the Rats by his wise looks and even has noire of the Profs bluffed. However, the MESSENGER and the SPIDER both cry aloud his business ability.

Some say that he is well qualified to becon e a successful business man, due to his connec­ tion with these publications; others say that his peculiar political training in the Philo­ logian Literary Society has fitted hm for a statesman's work, but those who know him best recommend him as a detective. But what has kept Halstead out of sight so n uch of the time? Some say press of work on the SPIDER, but his old lady, John George, let the cat out of the bag. You see, most of his time is taken up writing to some far­away damsel in Weeksville. When one of these missives is begun there must be no interruption for two hours or more.

ELOISE JAUDON HARRIS RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

"Odds blushes and blooms!"

Applicant for B. S. Degree; B. A. Hollins, 1912; Chi Epsilon Literary Society; Woman's Self Government Association; Woman's Ath­ letic Association; Girls' Tennis Club; Co­Ed Basketball Team; Cranmers' Club; Dramatic Club.

It is hard to classify Miss Harris; any one will tell you that. So, realizing the difficulty of the task, we have sought diligentl­ for in­ formation in regard to her from various sources. Taking the faculty first, of course, we consulted them separately, beginning with the youngest, and their united opinion was so complimentary that we hestitate to give it; next, we asked the co­ed basketball coach, but we also hesitate to give his opinion, though for an entirely different reason. How­ ever, almost everybody seems to agree in call­ ing her very original and a most delightful companion. To this last, one member of the faculty testified most strongly. The boys pronounce her an all­around good sort, while the co­eds thinks she is "indispensible in keeping us in order." Seriously, however, Eloise has made a place for herself which it will be hard to fill. There is no one else who is just like her.

FRANK SPURGEON HARWOOD PAMPLIN, VIRGINIA

"His heart as far from fraud as heaven from earth."

Applicant for B. A. Degree; President of Virginia Student Volunteer Union for Foreign Missions, 1913­14; President Philologian Lit­ erary Society, 1913­14, Secretary, 1912­13; Associate Editor MESSENGER, 1913'14; Leader Richmond College Volunteer Band, 1912­13; Class Historian, 1912­13.

Here is a good friend, who is frank and hon­ est in all he does. A conscientious, Christian worker, yet, possessing the power of mixing well with his fellow students in all their honest pleasures. He is liked by all. His droll way of speaking of the "one­time" girl often amuses us; and below the picture of the enchantress are found the words, "Smile, doggone you, smile." The words may be stronger, but the desired result is always ob­ tained when anyone enters his rooir, the least bit grouchy. The beacon­light above his forehead will point out the straight path to all his parishioners, and Frank will be "right there" to lend a helping hand to the needy brother. He has been a good companion and a true friend throughout his college career, and the good wishes of his fellow students are sure to follow him.

GARLAND MELVIN GARWOOD RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

"A good song is none the worse for being sung twice.''

Applicant for B. S. Degree; Pi Kappa .Al­ pha; Glee Club, 1911­14, Leader, 1911­12; Quartette, 1913­14; Treasurer Senior Class, 1913­14; Laboratory Assistant in Chemistry, 1912­1914; Assistant Track Manager, 1911 12; Harmonv Club; John Marshall High School Club.

If you should look for Garland, you would find him in one of three places: in the chem­ istry lab., in front of Memorial Hall in a bunch of song birds, or in one of the Library alcoves talking to three or more Co­Eds at once. Like all Gaul, his attention is divided into three parts, and it is hard to say which possesses the greatest attraction for him. In the laboratory his timely aid prevents many suicides, intentional and otherwise among Chemistry A students. In the Glee Club, his deep bass is one of the chief n a instays, and among the Co­Eds he's a regular lion in a den of Daniels, and an endless source of conster­ nation to the Librarians. But somehow '' Uncle'' Harwood hasn't been able to reach the same lightness of spirit this year in the absence of his partners, Dicky and Bricky.

ODIS BENJAMIN HINNANT SOUTH RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

"No one has betrayed himself by silence.''

Applicant for B. A. Degree; Y. M. C. A.

Here is what you would call a versatile man. Odis has done almost everything from running a Manchester Y. M. C. A. which, by the way, he thinks is heaven, to making Whiskers' Math and Metty's Anglo­Saxon, which he thinks . Well, as we were about to say, it is a pleasure to see Physical Di­ rector Hinnant putting his proteges through their stunts on the sand lots of Manchester, and on the summer play­grounds. To look at him you wouldn't think he could talk much, but there you are mistaken. They say that the only way to stop him when he gets wound up is to ask him to join something or to go somewhere for you. At once he remembers that he has very little time, but must get back to his Y. M. C. A. duties.

Wish you luck, Odis.

GLADYS W1IEATLEY JOHNSON RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

'' For if she will, she will, you may depend on't, And if she won't, she won't, so there's an end on't."

Applicant for B. A. Degree; Chi Omega; John Marshall High School Club; Anti­Cram­ mers' Club; Woman's Athletic Association; Woman's Self Government Association.

Take a good look at this picture, and see if you can't catch a hint of that independent little poise of Gladys' head which we see so often—and as often to our cost. For the first thing anybody notices about her, is that she has a decided propensity to hold different opinions from those held by others; if you want her to agree with you, you must first say what you don't think. Other noticable characteristics, are her frankness and original­ ity—she is often quite uncomfortably frank and original. And the worst thing about it is that you find it rather delightful, and, no matter what she says, you simply can't per­ suade yourself to feel offended. Gladys finds her way unexpectedly into many people's hearts. She left us one year, and went to Washington College, but, upon her return, one of her admirers among the co­eds said that the only compensation for the loss of one of the girls who graduated last year was that we had Gladys back again. Others among us think so too!

GEORGE ARTHUR JORDAN CARDINAL, VIRGINIA

"And for a mantle large and broad He wrapt him in Religion."

Applicant for B. A. Degree; Member Y. M. C. A.; Mu Sigma Rho Literary Society, Critic and Secretary; Intercollegiate Prohibition Association.

Brother Jordan comes to us all the way from Canada. He meanders serenely back and forth from his three centers of attraction, class room, library and chapel, and he is al­ ways ready with a smile and a handshake.

Brother Jordan is cranky on three subjects: Woman's suffrage, cigarettes, and religion.

A group of degenerates from Junior Law smoking in front of the chapel causes him to draw as long a face as Manager Wicker wore when he found his two car­loads of apples had spoiled, but yet there is a kindly twinkle in his eyes, and a quiet smile breaks out as he reasons with you on your short­comings and shows you how near the brink your are tread­ ing. He has been with us only two years, yet he has made his personality felt in the Y. M. C. A. and other religious movements, and we feel that in his chosen calling he will put forth the consecration and earnestness of pur­ pose he expresses in his very countenance and in his daily life.

EUGENE BERNARD LOVING RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

"If he be a severe, sour complexioned man, then I here disallow him to be a com­ petent judge."

Applicant for B. A. Degree; Mu Sigma Rho 1 iterary Society; Y. M. C. A.

We have for many years searched for a satisfactory definition of a gentleman, and have never found one. Like love, the word is hard to define, but we can find one and show him to you. Behold the man! That's what the girls say about him, and we are glad it can't be denied. It is a pity that only one little girl can have that big heart all for her own, but she has it and she is not deceived.

Loving has passed through these halls of learning, and while here has made many friends. One of these friends who happens to have been his "ole lady" is a missionary teacher in Turkey. '' Doc,'' as the boys call him, has always been especially interested in the literary exercises of the College and never failed to make the audience greater by two when there was a public occasion of that kind at the College. Quiet, unobtrusive and stud­ ious, he possessed his soul in patience until the victory was won.

DANIEL STEPHENS MCCARTHY, JR. RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

"It is a great plague to be too handsome a man."

Applicant for B. S. Degree; Kappa Sigma; Mu Sign a Rho Literary Society, Viee­Presi dent, 191213; Laboratory Assistant in Bio­ logy, 1913­14; Richmond Academy Club.

Dan's chief characteristics seem to be faithfulness and perseverance: faithfulness to the ladies and perseverance in his attempts to land the Mu Sig Presidency. Watch the door on public nights and you will be re­ warded by seeing this beaming senior walk in with—well, you never can tell which one, but someone all the same. Congratuate your­ self that you don't have the morning section of Biology Lab. in which the co­eds work; for, when Dan comes to your assistance his in­ structions in dissection are mostly how to pro­ tect the vital organ from an unfriendly stab.

His diligent work has landed him an undis­ puted sheepskin. At the same time he has not forgotten to strive to better the conditions of whatever he came in contract. His persist­ ency has won many members for the Mu Sigs, and when Dan is gone they, as well as others of us, will miss this loyal alumnus of the Richmond Academy.

"These are the statistics I have made up, gentlemen.''

Yes, he belongs in the same class with our friend, '' Big'' Davis—he's married. Happy one! The smiles and arch glances of the fair Co­Eds are unavailing and he comes un­ scathed through the treacherous paths of college life. He has but to think of his bride by the sea, whom he had to leave for this short space to capture his degree, and so takes little interest in the college life proper.

So reserved is he, in. fact, that but a few of his class knew that he had returned after Christmas. But Mills is back to snatch that degree this year without fail, and is done with the traveling life for good and all.

Here's luck to you, Mills, and in the future may your work be so arranged that you won't have to pay such frequent visits to Norfolk.

Applicant for B. A.

M. C. A., 1912­13; Vol unteer Band, Leader, 1914; SPIDER Staff, 1914.

Happy Jack, contrary to the clerical cut of his features, is a person of genial and even jolly disposition. He is optmistic and light— light of spirit as of body. Jack is a blond, a lovely blond, with such a soft liquid voice.

Girls declare that he is an angel—to be. In truth Pastor Poarch is very solicitous about the welfare of his parishioners and many urgent telephone calls has he sent to the Woman's College earnestly seeking to induce the matron to allow some certain fair damsel to talk with her former pastor. And .Jack is a regular Boss Murphy. If you cared to know the political situation you had but to question him. From the night on which he won the presidency of the Philologians no one has disputed his sway. The one bane of his college life has been Mathematics A, and Jack declares that if there's any mathematics in heaven he doesn't want to go there. But he's going to be a "big" preacher one of these days.

SAMUEL JEFFERSON ROWLAND LYNCHBUKG, V IRGINIA

"Man delights not me; no, nor wo ­ an neither."

Applicant tor B. A. Degree; Mil Sigma Bho Literary Society; Instructor in Latin, 1909 1910.

If, during the winter, you noticed an over­ coat and cap propelled rapidly across the campus by a startlingly long pair of shanks— why, that was Sam. And that's about all you saw of him, too, for at all other times he was in his room studying, when not attending chapel. Sam belongs to that period of the history of the college made glorious by the endeavors of that quartette of philosophers and literary lights, Wilkins, Beverly, Still­ well, and Rowland, who were "The Mes­ senger," writing practicall}' all of the copy for its issues. After a few years of work, Sam returns to capture his degree. His taci­ turn disposition has made him a sealed book to the college world at large, who will remem­ ber only his choppy gait and reserved, al most severe, mien. A wintry smile is at time evoked from him in the Mu Sig halls, while at other times Sam and a kindred spirit, "Cigarette" Jordan, frown upon the gambols of the pleasure­seeking rather than literarilv inclined members.

ALICE FRANCES SPIERS RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

Applicant for B. A. Degree; Chaplain Chi Epsilon Literary Society, 1911­12; Won an's Athletic Association; Co­Ed Basketball Team; Girls' Tennis Club; Anti­Crammers' Club; Woman's Self Government Association; John Marshall High School Club; Dramatic Club; Chi Epsilon Literary Society.

A remarkable versatility is that of this young lady, and one made up of strange con­ tradictions. For who ever heard of an Esper­ antist who loved modern languages, a mater­ ialist who was a poetess and an idealist, or a suffragist who was shy and romantically in­ clined? Yet Alice is all of these and more; for she has a very keen and subtle sense of humor, and enough gray matter left to glide easily through a college course without undue application to study. We should accuse her of loafing were it not that she is so interested in modern languages. She herself confesses, in the words of Meredith: "Whene'er I hear French spoken as I approve, I feel myself quietly falling in love."

Which, language or professor? Her great­ est fault is a certain ineurable dreaminess, which often completely carries her away from this mundane sphere. Dreamers, however, are those who accomplish things, and so we ex­ pect a great deal of Alice.

"This is a funny world."

Well, look what's here! Don't blame us.

The Lord made it back up in Spotsylvania.

Edmund Temple Turnley—read the name aloud and note the alliteration. It is an imitation of a line from Kipling. Data as to Turnley's antiquity and previous condition of servitude is lacking. E. Temple has done two bad deeds in his life. One was to leave his native State, Virginia, and move down into North Carolina.

(Perhaps he either had to leave or thought he owed it to his native State to do so.) The other time he went astray was last Chirstmas, but I openly confess that I am bribed to sup­ press the facts; besides, I have not been able to ascertain the name of the girl. Turnley didn't come to Richmond College sounding a trumpet to attract attention. In that same quiet way he departs from this campus, but if conscientious work and common sense count for anything you will hear from E. Temple Turnley when the pretentions of more obstru­ sive characters have passed away.

Clyde is a quiet sort of a chap, and attends to his own business so well that no one else knows what it is, except in the classroom, where he shows that it is his business to know much more than the rest. He has the greatest aptitude for work, and his fellow­members in the Mu Sig know it, for they didn't hesitate to put important matters into his hands. As Vice­President and Chairman of the Program Committee his programs were excellent and the award of the medal last year for research work in history attest his thoroughness, To show how seriously he takes his work, it is rumored that he intends to return to college next year to see that it is started properly in its new hon e and incidentally to get his M. A. Whatever you undertake to do, Clyde, you will do well—for we know you.

ANDREW NEWTON WILKINSON SKIPWITH, VIKOINIA

"God made him, and therefore let him pass for a man."

Applicant for B. A. Degree; Mu Sigma Rho Literary Society.

Three years ago this book­lover presented himself on the campus and proudly informed us that he was from "old Mecklenburg."

We are more interested in that county now than ever before, and envy her for sending out such a specimen. The first time this gentleman attracted our special attention was by his nocturnal exclamation just before cock­crowing of "Morning Paper." He ac­ quired the peculiar habit of rousing every­ body in Deland from their slumber until they rose in rebellion, and one night soaked him with water—an untried experience for him.

He never cared for anything more for morn­ ing papers. "Rabbi" is too deep for us— he is past finding out. Sometimes we think we've got him sized up when suddenly some unexpected freak of character shows up and we are in the dark again. There's nothing to do but to wait and wonder. Of all the men on earth no one has a more untried future than he.

"A bold, bad man."

Applicant for B. A. Degree; Philolog Literary Society; Y. M. C. A.

Are you seeking a man spotless in character and habits? Seek no further; he is found.

There are not many made like Sam. He is as particular as an old maid and doubtless could teach one of those ladies how to be even more prim and precise. This careful disposi­ tion will be of great benefit to him if he re­ mains a bachelor. No man at college has en­ countered more discouragements than Sam, nor worked harder against them, for he toiled while his companions slept. His only fault is that he is too good to live long. He did go to see a moving picture show once, but he will get over that if he never goes to another. It seems that his heart is invulner­ able from feminine attacks. Bashfulness in him is a besetting sin. The girls have given him up as hopeless game. It's up to him now.

The college will never lose a nobler fellow than Sam. 63

Glance at that determined look on the buckshot stuck on his shoulders. You would think this fellow had not the slightest wit in him; yet, if you heard the select jokes he brought back from the Lyric, Richmond's largest vaudeville, and could see this mis­ chief­loving piece of humanity in operation you would soon change your opinion. Mrs. "Boaty" was at one time unable to dis­ tinguish him from Ilovey, probably because Clodius never brings the same Co­Ed to pub­ lic affairs, but always comes with a "calic" just the same. Nevertheless, since Mrs. " Boaty's" attention has been called to Hovey's more constant attention, she has learned to look first for the "skirt" when either of these gentlemen enter. Clodius is best known in class work as a scientist, as the above honors testify. His earnest, suc­ cessful work at College bids fair for a bright future for this young thinker.

But "Russ" is some shark in his classes.

One of his favorite stunts is to take a test after a five­minutes slant at his note­book.

Always manages to get a high mark, too. But in spite of this he has never won a reputation for being swell­headed, except on one occa­ sion. One day "Russ" read somewhere tnat people whose faces are convex in profile are more intelligent than persons with concave fronts. "Russ" was tickled to death and, in order to show off his front elevation to better advantage, rushed downtown and got an abbreviated Princeton Ruff, which he has been wearing ever since. '' Russ'' has not always been without political aspirations, and he has sometimes arrived. His specialty is running for treasurer, and speaking about accomplishments, "Russ" has trade some of the Jaspers turn green with envy by success­ fully horsing Whiskers in Math B and Monty in Latin C.

HIS class history was conceived by the writer while sober, (references upon request) in the year lt)14, A. B. (Anno Boaty), P. M., P. S., Friday night, one and one­half minutes to 12 O'Ingersoll. The purpose of this history is to make others see us as we see ourselves. We feel that if we succeed in giving you one glimpse of our (im) mortal greatness, that this little horn will not have been tooted in vain. Selah. (Warning: You proceed fur­ ther in the perusal of this class history entirely at your own risk of losing re­ spect for all previous classes at Richmond College.) If introducing to you a character like "Hun" Wiley causes you to lose respect for Xapoleon, who did some heavy hatting in the early part of the Nineteenth century, don't blame ns for it.

Here's the way we started. One September morn, a great noise was heard on the campus, things began to hum. Boaty ran out bareheaded to ascer­ tain the cause. It was the arrival of the Rat class of 1915. We were clamoring for something to do. We have been doing things—and people—ever since.

We will now take a look at the class col^B^W^^nd individually, re­ motely and miscroscopically, religiously and co­educiwonally. Let us view the class with an unbiased mind, selecting our strength and virtue, and admitting our weak points. Three of these weakest points are Ty Cobb Ryland, David Nelson Sutton and R. L. Burruss. We beg of you not to let them prejudice yon against the whole class.

When one views the class as a body, for instance, as it sits in chapel, the most conspicuous things are first, the absence of such a large number, and secondly, the good looks of those present. (The writer takes for granted that all the co­eds are present, and that "Doc" Walton and X icodemus Thomas are not present.) This chapel absence on the part of the class is due to unavoidable circumstances—the circumstances being the campus, Wright's drug­store and somewhere else to go.

I might now begin to enumerate all the activities of the college life and tell you that the Juniors in every particular are the main factors in bringing things to pass. But my conscience and the editor­in­chief forbid. Let me say a word about our college spirit. When it comes to rooting for our dear old

"alma mamma," we are there, aren't we, class ? The class nods its head and says, "yes." If yon doubt it, just consult the football records of the late Randolph­ Id aeon, Hampden­Sidney, and (excuse me for mentioning it) Willie and Mary "prep" schools, alias colleges.

But coming now to the individual units of the class, we shall begin with Waverly Sydnor Green and go up. The first thing we notice is his feet. (See "feet" note at bottom of this page.) But Green is worth knowing and it will do you good to rub up against his bracing disposition.

I now turn from my natural order to dispense with Dudley Bowe. I do this in order to get him off of my mind, lie is the treasurer of the class and has consequently made many life­long enemies. There is a slight hope, however, that he may live it down. Dudley just looks at you in that pleasant, unobtru­ sive way of his, and gains your confidence. Designing lad! He suspects that you have a quarter in the right hand pocket of your trousers, which he will obtain for the class. Doubtless, you think, you will spend it at the Lyric. Well, Dudley is right; you are wrong.

Someone asks ine who that guy is over there wearing a green tie of a mill­pond hue. That is none other than Junius Earle Dunford. Come around "Pete" and let me introduce you. "Pete" is our president. We will excuse him for that if he never does anything any worse. "Pete" has won fame by leading the college y^*">^®Ntfby his rapid­fire speech­making in chapel. It's a singular fact that hi*, tongue moves faster than any other mechanism known.

Borrow an extra pair of ears sometime, and hear him reel off one of those twenty­five hundred word speeches in two minutes and a thin slice of a second.

Let me turn aside here to apologize for the presence of Frank Ellet in the class. The fact is, he made such little noise that we just recently discovered him. One day he spoke to some one on the campus. Thus it was we discovered him. We told him that he might formally remain a member of the class if he would not make any more noise. ILe has kept his word.

We now pass to "Jimmie" Newton. We wish we could pass him alto­ aether, leaked out that he is a member of our o " but we can't. It has already " class. Someone else found it impossible to pass "Jimmie"—that was a foot­ hall player last fall from a neighboring college. "Jimmie" is a big boy that you'll like.

*They are exceedingly large.

73

Fewtie Ancarrow was born with bright prospects, but unfortunately as a baby they gave him a football to play with. It blighted his life. He de­ veloped a weakness for athletics and captainships.

The records say that R. I. Johnson came into the world to make the Glee Club and everything else that he had anything to do with a success, and at the same time mind his own business. He has done both.

We have finally come to the subject of this history; viz, co­eds. There are only about a half dozen worth mentioning—that's all we have. We would enumerate their charms if we had space. Do you seek beauty ? It is here.

Smiles? Look about you. Miss Anderson? Hunt O'Flaherty. It has been rumored that Miss Anderson is deserting us for the Junior Law class. For the loye of Mike!

Have you read Smither's stories in the MESSENGER ? If not your knowl­ edge of American literature is sadly deficient. I am told that a certain admirer of hers on the campus is already reading them as parallel.

One question that the class is often confronted with is: ''Whv does M iss Woodward have so many admirers?" Some jealous cynic suggested that it is because her brother is god­father of Math A. We don't believe it. Such an answer fails to take into account the efficacy of a smile on the human system. (See Gray's Anatomy.)

There is one name that shines above all otl^iffii^mr class. It is Mary C. Shine. The "C" is for Courtenay. If you don't know what that word means, look it up in (C. C.) Webster's Dictionary.

But time's cycle moves on. One night we were Rats; yesterday, Sopho­ mores ; today, we are Juniors. But already the day wanes. We turn our faces westward and stand upon the threshold of a new day. Tomorrow—ah, to­ morrow ! we shall be Seniors at the greater Richmond College.

Sophomore Class HMston>

HE Class of Sixteen was born with a silver spoon in its month on the night of February 10, 1913, in the banquet hall of Murphy's Hotel. That was an exciting night; its memory haunts us still, but we came forth triumphant, and triumphant we've beffii ever since.

Even in our first year our honors were as boundless as Sallie Wills Hol­ land's good­nature. They came as rapidly as polysyllabical words from Lewis Yancey's lips. Success was as universal as the co­ed's mother's approbation of Alvah Hovey. It was as omnipresent as Ellwanger's toothpick, so admired by Coach Dobson. In Field Day, we carried everything before us, for Durrum got all that was get­able. Did you mention class baseball ? Brooke Anderson was waiting for the cup long before Mr. Prince even thought of finishing his pre­ sentation speech. Two Philologian medals went to W. K. Allen and Edloe Snead, and three out of the six co­ed basketball letters went to the class­o'­ sixteen girls.

Our Rat year was everything we could wish for, and we came back with full intentions of making our Soph year quite' as successful. For a starter, we made Brooke Anderson president. Then we had an awfid scare: our honored official received a call from a church in Southern Virginia, at four hundred a year and three acres of ground around the parsonage. It was a terrible temptation, but he finally decided that be had better stay in college to boss the Soph class, plague Allen and Ellwanger, and promote college athletics, "Daggone it all."

There was another matter which greatly worried the co­ed contingency of the class: the Mitchell question. Two men of like name dropped suddenly upon us, sat next to each other in chapel and joined the same frat. The girls were in despair. They became as excited as Hamilton at the Randolph­Macon game, when he pulled out his watch to determine the score. "Which is Perry" ? and "Which is Terry" ? was the daily moan back of those new lace curtains in the Soph room. Then a wise Senior settled it. "Don't you know" ? she asked.

"Why, Terry is the sweet one and Perry is the flirt." And then the bell for chapel rang.

Chapel is a period that Sophomores greet with joy. Then A. It. Bowles, Jr., can discuss English I).­—why else did he get Allen to exchange seats so he conld sit next to the co­ed ? Then the Soph girls can sit at the feet of the choir, and sonlfully gaze id Joe Leslie's eyes. But, alas! Ruth Ford left col­ lege. Joe joined the anti­co­ed club. It is not in anti­co­edism alone, though, that Joe Leslie stars. Wasn't he the Soph that led the rooters, that backed the team, that won the cup for Richmond ?

Our class has been well represented, too, in other places beside the rooters' bench. The academic work has been upheld by our three great G's— Garrett, Gay and Goepfarth—a trio that has and will make the class of sixteen famous. When the college sent three delegates to the Student Volunteer Con­ vention at Kansas City last Christmas, two of them, Brannock and Allen, be­ longed to us. In athletics our record is a continuation of last year—Coburn and Hutchinson were on the football team; Durrum and Bahlke won their track letters, Durrum making a total of twenty­two points; and Perry Mitchell represented us in basketball.

Really, we do possess quite a few celebrities. What young lady besides Lillian Harding could successfully hold five men in rapt conversation while she fiirts with a sixth and convinces a seventh of her undying attachment? Or what gentleman, pray, can consistently have more girls at one time than Mr. Fatherly? Our greatest accomplishment we feel, is the Rat class.

Honestly, we can't help but be proud whenever we look upon that thriving band of children that we've brought up by hand, so to speak.

We are the last Sophomore class that will ever be 011 th is campus. Our college life will be equally divided; half 011 the old, with its old traditions; half on the new, with its new advantages. We are proud, justly we think, of the record of the first half; continuing to follow our class motto, we are going to make the future record one to be proud of too. For us "There shall be 110 A lps."

jfrom the E>iav\> of a jfresbman

S

EPTEMBER 19th, 1913—my brain is so muddled tonight that I can't think clearly; so many things have happened today. I am a sure­enough college student, and I thought I would feel so big, but somehow I feel very little and unimportant. This morning I found my way to a table where two very learned, important­looking men were sitting. I stood and watched these men for awhile and as one of them seemed always to be laughing or joking at some­ body, I started toward him. Some queer looking person (they call them Seniors here) gave me a push and said, "Oh, don't be frightened, Dr. Loving likes rats." (I wonder how he krew I was a rat.) Well, I gave Dr. Loving my hand and he took a small card and wrote down the things that I wanted to study, but somehow or other he wrote down the things that I had positively decided NOT to take. I was too rattled to resist that smiling advice, so 1 meekly took my card and started for chapel. I wonder if I will ever get those teachers (or Doctors, as they call them) straight. Let's see—Dr. Boatwright and Dr. Bing­ ham both have very intelligent­looking whiskers; Dr. Van (I can't remember all of it), is the tall, kind­looking man; and Dr. Stewart (I think it's disre­ spectful to call him Bobby), is the man with the pretty hair. There are lots of others just like ordinary men, but I don't know their names yet. I heard some of the older students talking about what terrible things they are going to do to the Rats. I hope they won't do anything VERY bad.

JANUARY 30th, 1914—It's all over now: the Rat banquet that we have been planning for so long. At last I can talk out loud without being afraid that I will tell our big secret. Those old Sophomores did their best to spoil our fun, but they didn't succeed, even though they did hold a reception after the ban­ quet. We were terriby afraid that they woidd want to have their party at the same time we were to have our banquet, and that some of the Rats would PREFER to attend the Sophomore affair; but in spite of a few difficulties every one got there safely. Miss II had the pleasure of being escorted to the banquet by our chaperones, as she couldn't tell the differnce between a Rat and a Sopho­ more. (What a shame you can't see the person with whom you are making engagements over the telephone!)

84

Dr. Metcalf and Dr. Anderson gave us very interesting talks and re­ minded us that ours was the last class from Richmond College that could have a "co­educational" Freshman banquet. Oh, I am so glad I'm a Rat! JUNE 10th, 1914—This was our last day as Freshmen. Hext year we will all be Sophomores and then "woe he unto the Rats." Though in most cases the Sophs have been very considerate of us, yet we have seen enough of college life to be anxious to play some jokes on the little, ignorant Rats who will be here next year.

I have just been reading over my diary for the whole college year, and I wonder what we have really done. Three times we have ascended into that

"college heaven" (commonly known as exams) only to find that our goal had not yet been reached; we must still climb on. We have been made to feel wel­ come and at home at college; we have been entertained in many ways by both professors and students. The older students say that the Rats have enter­ tained them at times, but I really don't see how. Although we have done nothing very wonderful or startling, yet I think, every one of us has a class and college spirit that will remain with us for the rest of our college course. We are sorry to leave the college where we have worked and played for one short year, for we have learned to love it, but we are looking forward with pleasure to the larger life in Greater Richmond College. ­—HISTORIAN.

We are sometimes puzzled to know how Blankenship collected such an assortment of ill­digested, miscellaneous information on Virginia law and otherwise. His knowledge of the law is suggestive of an education gained through gleaning an almanac, and as is usual in such cases, he constantly attempts to impress others with what he thinks hi knows. Arriving at an issue is an unknown proceeding to Blankenship, for when worsted in an* argument, he jumps the point without the slightest hestitancy, and explains on the ground of "fraud," etc. A hard man to pin as all of us know, but a true friend in need when it comes to the Virginia law on the subject. In the early part of the year Mac and Blankenship waged war to the death on the question of the value of maxims of equity, but Blankenship finally yielded the palm* to his opponent, though privately he still entertains the opinion that "Equity re­ gards that as done which ought to be done."

To look upon this young man, one would think the cares of the nation rested upon him—but, then, Bob thinks he is a great deal more important than he really is. A preoc­ cupied manner and a frown to tell the world how he labors under his burdens: you could­ n't mistake him. Must have spent some years of his life collecting, for he takes to it like a duck to water; consequently his fellow students have learned to dread his approach and flee whenever possible. Seeing him in the library on a literary forage for the MESSENGER, someone aptly described him as "roaming about seeking whom he might devour." Nevertheless,. Bob has not lacked for honors, and we have found that he could do work, and important work, well. Here's hoping you may overcome opposing counsel as successfully as you have handled 3'our op­ ponents in intercollegiate debate, Bob. 93

THOMAS BOLLING BYRD WINCHESTER, VIRGINIA

"He was stately, and young, and tall."

Applicant for LL. B.; Kappa Alpha; Delta Theta Phi; German Club; President Junior Law Class; Assistant Editor SPIDER, 1914.

Anything but bird­like in appearance, he re­ minds us rather of a huge mastiff, and his friends all say that he is as honorable and reliable as his looks would indicate. We are still further convinced that he does not be­ long to the bird class when we remember his difficulty in distinguishing his relations— for a hen is only a hen to our brother Byrd, be she the Pheasant Hen so ably protrayed

by Rostrand or the common barn­yard variety.

However, our decision is still wavering when we again remember how oft'times our friend has spread his wings in the awful chasm be­ tween Equity and Pleading; nor has he failed sometimes to soar completely over the "rag­ ged" heights of the latter and journey down­ town with his friend Peyton. He possesses one attribute of the feathered family, which is unmistakable—the scrawl. Just let Byrd seize a pen and see what he does with it.

"IIow about a meeting of the Judges for Friday at nine?"

GRAVES GLENWOOD CLARK RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

"Oh, how wonderful is the human voice."

Applicant for LL. B.; Delta Theta Phi; Mu Sigma Rho Literary Society; Secretary John Marshall High School Club, 1914.

A very deceptive young man—so young and so fair. Ilis voice and actions are sug­ gestive of the n o re deadly of the species, but those who know him well can assure you that there is a very clear and versatile mind of the masculine variety beneath this decep­ tive exterior. He has no dissipation save his arguments with Gellman, which occur daily.

He was formerly a member of the M11 Si gma Rho Literary Society, but finally decided to concentrate his whole time and energy upon his attacks on Gellman, and consequently left the society. Brother Clark is a close student of the law and can be depended upon to ex­ pound the law on the subject, in a sweet voice.

The fact that he is always prepared has been of immense assistance to Brothers Byrd and Brock at times, and they have never found him unwilling or unable to lend a word of council.

CHARLES WOMACK CROWDER, JR. RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

"I never could give reason for anything."

Applicant for LL. B.; Mn Sigma Rho Lit­ erary Societv; John Marshall High School Club.

Yes, another John Marshallite. After lcav ing the High School, Charles decided he had quite enough of learning and went to work, but seeing so many of his friends come up to the Richmond College Law School, he changed his mind and decided to avail himself of the unfathomed knowledge of Mac. Despite such action, there seeirs to be no love lost be­ tween Charles and the dean. One fact Charles never learned: when Mac asked him a ques­ tion naturally demanding the answer "Yes" to be sure to answer "No" and answer cor­ rectly. He never would.

Charles is quite an authority on back exams, copies of which he has acquired by devise from our late friend, R. A. Ryland.

Good luck to you, Charles, and may your memory prove as good as your reasoning is false.

THOMAS NEBLETTE CEYMES MEHERRIN, VIRGINIA

'' Good nature is one of the richest fruits of true Christianity.''

Applicant for LL. B.; Philologian Literary Society.

"Judge" Crymes has at least one of the qualities of a great lawyer—care. This is exemplified in the way in which the learned judge insists upon understanding the ques­ tion before delivering an opinion, which he never does without making the preliminary statement. "If I understand the case prop­ erly." Then follows a learned opinion from which one would gather that the judge has misunderstood the case. Crymes always keeps his mouth open. This is done in order to better absorb the legal learning with which the atmosphere is surcharged during lectures, This plan is probably very commendable, but its success, at least in the present instance, is doubtful. Our friend is the fortunate possessor of a happy disposition, and is always pleasant to those around him. He is truly conscientious and takes his work seriously, but he is not wholly absorbed in work, for he is an athlete of son e fame, as evinced by his basketball and track proclivities.

97

SAMUEL H. GELLMAK RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

"He who is always his own councillor Will often have a fool for a client."

Applicant for LL. B.; Mu Sigma Rho Lit erary Society; Class Baseball, 191213.

This gentleman can be depended upon NCT to hide his light under a bushel measure; on the contrary, he will place a strong reflector behind his light in order that his less fortun­ ate brethren may bask in its illuminating rays. Sam was a claimant for the promised volume of "Cyc" not forthcoming—which fact grieved him considerably. Whatever Sam may have or lack, he certainly possesses his fair share of brains, and not a few per­ tinent questions come from his direction. At the beginning of his study of the Law, Gell man entertained a very poor opinion of the views of others, but of late he shows some deference to the more celebrated legal writers, and as he is yet young he may some day allow Brother Clark to convince him on some trivial point.

98

ARCHER LEE JONES DINWIDDLE COU NTY, VIRGINIA

"He is shrewd and sharp, and was bred to controversies."

Applicant for LL. B.; Phi Kappa Sigma; Delta Theta Phi; Mu Sigma Rho Literary Society; President 1914; Best Debater's Medal, 1913; Inter­Society Debate, 1913; In­ tercollegiate Debate, 1914; Associate Editor MESSENGER, 1914; Senior Law Class Orator, 1914.

"Al," like our friend "Judge" Miller, re­ ceived the rudiments at Randolph­Macon Academy, but discovering early in life the error of his ways, severed his connection with the Methodist Institution. Archie is an all­ round n an—debater, orator, student and athlete. His power of speech has made him a man of importance in the Literary society, while his mound work in the inter­class base­ ball contests show him to be a pitcher of no mean ability. No one doubts that he has correctly chosen his profession, for he is ever ready for an argument. We take great pleasure in announcing that at the close of the session, Jones will play "Sid" King for the tennis championship of A irginia.

Though bets are about even, there are some who contend that the left­handed magician will put one over on our friend "Al." It is sometimes said that all lawyers are crooks, but we must assure the world in general that Jones is not as crooked as his footprints would indicate.

99

R. SIDNEY KING WINDSOR, VIRGINIA

"Smiling cheerfulness throws sunlight on all the paths of life."

Applicant for LL. B. Degree; Phi Gamma Delta; Delta Theta Phi; German Club; Treas urer Senior Law Class, 1914.

"Sid" is a royal fellow. Never grouchy, our friend Sid seen s always happy and ever smiling. They say that opposites exercise a great attraction for each other—certainly Sid's closest friend is his shirt, whose native hue is brown and somber, tie are almost tempted to inquire sometimes whether Sid anil his brown shirt sleep together. From all appearances Sid intends to be a doctor as well as a lawyer, for he has been taking a course down at the Medical College during the two years of his college career. Rumor has it that he already has a large practice in that neighborhood and that numerous fees are collected. ' Certain it is that after such visits Sid's pockets are full. All hail The Sultan of the Turkeys. Sid came tc 'is from the U. S. A., but he has been anything but militant since he entered college. We imagine he is too joyful over his escape. ITe says that law offers a trifle more freedom to an unfettered spirit.

CABL HEINEICH LTJEBBEET EICHMCND, VIRGINIA

"Thou hast mettle enough in thee to kill care.''

Applicant for LL. B.; Zeta Xi; Varsity Basketball Tfeam, 1912­13­14; Captain, 1913 14; Varsity Club; Bachelors Club; Prohibition Club; John Marshall High School Club.

"Heine" came to us from Hampden­Sidney a short two years back, yet we believe he is a loyal Spider despite that fact, although there is some question as to whether he runs about the basketball court in that rather abbreviated costume for love of the game or for love of the college. However that may be, "Cap" is some player, and if he only "shot" the profs, as often as he does his baskets, Mac would not be taking such a personal interest in our friend to the extent of interviewing him after class. He has had the honor of being captain of a champion­ ship team and the satisfaction of knowing that his untiring interest in the sport has been one of the n a in causes effecting the de­ sired result. His team­mates have learned to depend on him, and so want to keep him to captain another championship team. We are rooting for you, Heine.

"Practice this evening at four, Bob, on the ' fectory court.' '' 101

HERBERT SIDNEY MANN BARTCN HEIGHTS, VIRGINIA

"He hath a long, lean and hungry look.'

Applicant for LL. B.; Pi Kappa Alpha Delta Theta Pm; Secretary Junior Law Class Vice­President Senior Law Class.

A long, skinny body, topped by a long ser­ ious face—the human toothpick—'tis Bert, ladies and gentlemen. Bert hails from the Heights, but that doesn't keep him from sinking to the depths (with the rest of the class) when Mac begins to "romp." Truly he must come from afar, for we seldom see his serious mug before nine­thirty. Fortun­ ately, he is not so serious as he appears, and is perfectly capable of enjoying a little chat with the ladies in the library alcoves or "knocking about the Heights." Our bro­ ther Mann has interests down town, too, it may be well to note. His partners, Cary Ellis and Joe Lane Stern, couldn't proceed another day without his great legal learning, conse­ quently he has to tear himself away from his friends almost immediately after lectures to lend his assistance elsewhere.

102

WILLIS DANCE MILLEE POWHATAN, VIRGINIA

"I have always heard you mentiored as a man of wisdom and intelligence."

Applicant for LL. B.; Kappa Alpha; Delta Phi; Varsity Club; Varsity Baseball Team, 1910; Annual Eepresentative Senior Law Class, 1914.

Theta

A young n an with a playful disposition, and yet withal a keen, quick mind. So quick, in­ deed, that Dr. McNeill has dubbed him "Gen eral Reader." Nevertheless, his ability and energy have been enough to hold a position in town and carry on his studies at the same time, which is very creditable.

The whole class just dotes on exams for then we can bet on the race. First "Judge" and then "Heine" leads, but both clear the tape a good five laps ahead of the rest of the class—that is, till the Illinois wizard, Zeleznick, put in his appearance, since which time he has been pushing our two racers.

"Judge" dear­ted old Richmond College in 1910, and sojourned in the Washington and Lee Halls for two years, but decided in 1912 that he had to return to his first love and found refuge and solace in the Law School.

103

DAVID FEANK WHITE PARKSLEY, VIRGINIA

"And they say girls can't whistle."

Applicant for LL. B.; Kappa Alpha; Delta Theta Phi; German Club; Philologian Literary Society; Bachelors Club; Tidewater Club; Baseball Team.

Despite his name, Frark has been a black sheep, but we rejoice to say that this year he has come back into the fold—tiuly another person from the young gentlen an who sat in the right wing of the class­room and answered, "Unprepared" until he was hoarse. At home in Virginia Statute Law, our friend seems completely lost in the mazes of common law principles.

Frank must be something of a psychologist: certainly he loves to see the crowds march by after dinner and after supper. One not knowing how interested Frank is in the work would suppose that he was doing guard duty at the Broad Street gate, so often and so regularly is he found stationed there. Nor has his hunt been un­ successful, so far as we can judge.

PHILIP HANCOCK COGB1LL CHESTERFIELD COURTHOUSE, VIRGINIA

Kappa Alpha.

"Phil" attended Randolph­Macon College three years. He came to Riehn ond to get his legal education. However, he has not for­ gotten the days that he spent at Ashland, and he often reminds us of what the Yellow Jackets are doing in athletics. His home is at Chesterfield, and this gives him very little time to spend with us.

EDWARD BRADSTREET DUNFORD SOUTH RICHMOND, VIR GINIA

Sigma Phi Epsilon; Delta Theta Phi; an­ nual Representative.

He is one of our best students, and is very popular among the boys. We understand that he spends his spare tin e around the court­ house in South Richmond (when he is not with his girl). The rest of his time, he studies law. This looks to us like a winning combination.

J. VAUGHAN GARY, B. A. RICHMOND, VIRGIN IA

Sigma Phi Epsilon; Delta Theta Phi; Track Team; Varsity Club; Editor­in­Chief of the MESSENGER, 1914­15.

A'aughan is well known among the student body. He is interested in every phase of college liie, and was very popular when a student in the Academic department. He represents our class on the track team, in the literary society and as editor­in­chief of the college magazine, and still he stands well in his classes. Vaughan, like several pther members of the class, has a weakness for the fairer sex, and he never lacks time to pen an epistle to the little girl who used to be at Blackstone.

ROBERT BROADDUS GAYLE RICHMOND, VIRGIN IA

He attended V. M. I. before coming to Richmond College. He joined the law class after Christmas, and has been doing very good work for a beginner.

106

ROSCOE B. GREENWAY RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

Roscoe has a sincere desire to aid the laboring man, and he is a champion for the cause of Socialism. He has an idea that lawyers are a curse to a community, and the citizens would be better and happier without them.

BERNARD W. JAMES RICHMOND, VIRGI NIA

Bernard is the only member of the class whose history is not known. We have tried several times to learn something of his past, but he refuses to reveal anything. He told Dr. McNeil that it was a crime to have in one's possession a gun that would shoot a mile and he was immediately asked, what about the army officer. That was too much for Bernard, and he admitted that the case wasn't clear to him.

CATESBY G. JONES GLOUCESTER, VIRGINIA

Phi Gamma Delta; Delta Theta Phi; Var­ sity Football Team; Varsity Club.

"Fritz" is an all­round athlete and a fine fellow. He was in the Academic department of the college for three years, and he is now doing excellent work in law. We are in­ formed that he expects to write a text­book on "Bailments and Carriers," a subject in which he is very proficient. He does not devote all of his "time to athletics and to his classes, but he also finds tin e to call on the ladies occasionally (?).

WAVERLY G. KING RICHMOND, VIRG INIA

Phi Kappa Sigma; Varsity Football Team.

This is the guy that alternately plays foot­ ball and then "shakes his gory locks" at all his professors. And it is whispered that Rock is not only a bright light in his studies and athletics, but also stands very strong with the ladies. On any Sunday afternoon he may be found out at Westhampton escort­ ing a fair one over the grounds.

107

HERBERT WITT HARRIS RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

Herbert graduated at Virginia Military Institute in the class of 1912. He entered the Law School late in tlie fall, but his work has been very satisfactory. We regret that outside duties forbid his spending more time with us.

THOMAS ORLANDO MOSS, JR. BEAVERDAM, VIRGINIA

Phi Kappa Sigma.

And here is our prize heavyweight. His success in the pursuit of '' Torts'and also delinquent debtors, has given him such prestige that he is hailed far and wide as the "Pride of Beaverdam." Orlando at­ tributes his burly constitution to his habits of hard study and walking the "Strater" path.

GILBERT EVERETTE PERRY HALLSTOWN, WEST VIRGINIA

Gil. first saw the light in a little town across the mountains. He spent several years at Powhatan's Institute before coming to us. He is an orator of no small fame.

The subject of the first oration which he de­ livered in the Society Hall was "The Evil of Whiskey." He was an applicant for the football team, but he received such a severe injury in the game with Blackstone Academy that the doctor advised him not to participate further in athletics this year.

ALFRED TAYLOR PITT RICHMOND, VIRG INIA

Kappa Alpha; Delta Theta Phi; President Junior Law Class.

Dolly spent three years in the Academic department, and is now pursuing the study of law. By his profound and learned dis­ cussions on "Torts," he has won for him­ self the title of Chief Justice. He is our President and also the Manager of our Class baseball team.

108

OLIVER A. POLLARD PETERSBURG, VIRGINIA

Zeta Xi; \ arsity Football Team; Varsity Club.

Polly hails from Petersburg, a fact which he has almost lived down. He is fond of the ladies and says that he prefers them to I)r. Mac's lectures on Contracts or Chic's on Domestic Relations. He is an excellent Mathematician, as is shown by the amount of damages which he, as foreman, allowed the plaintiff to recover in a recent case in the Mcot Court.

GEORGE MEREDITH RANEY SMC KY ORDINARY, VIRGINIA

Philologian Literary Society; Treasurer of Junior Class; Law Librarian; Censor Philo­ logian Literary Society.

Judge Raney was a student at Massey's Business College and V. P. I., and he is now pursuing the study of law with us. He has a great deal of trouble in keeping the books properly arranged in the library, and it be­ comes necessary at times to threaten the mis­ creants with corporeal punishment. Judge is very popular among the students.

JOHN JORDAN WICKER, JR., B. A. RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

Phi Kappa Sigma; Manager Basketball Team; Manager Glee and Mandolin Clubs; Varsity Club.

Johnny has held almost every office around college and succeeded himself as Manager of the Glee Club and Basketball Team. He en­ joys the distinction of being at the head of the "Hash House." As deputy sheriff of the Moot Court, he has experienced some trouble on several occasions in keeping order in the jury room while the counsel were arguing in­ structions. He finds it rather difficult at times to convince Dr. McNeil that his view of the case is correct, especially when he reads it for the first time in class.

PARKER RIDDELL WILSON GARDNER, WEST VIRGINIA

Phi Kappa Sigma.

"At First Blush" has no application to this specimen because the rosy hue of his physiogmony is of perpetual duration. We are at a loss to know just what "Park" intends to do, but from his appearance we should say that he will either make a first class bar­ keeper or a worker in the Anti­Saloon League.

109

JOHN E1SELE DAVIS MILFORD, DELEWARE

Sigma Phi Epsilon; Vice­President of Junior Law Class.

John is very fond of arguing, and is always willing to support the opposite side of tlie case. He thinks criminal law is especially interesting because it gives him an oppor­ tunity to explain to the class the meaning of "intent." We are not only proud of John as a student, but we also point with pride to the fact that he is an excellent ball player.

His position is behind the bat.

McCLELLAN GEORGE FINNEGAN WILTON­ON­THE JAM ES, VIRGINIA

Phi Kappa Sigma.

As soon as Dr. Mac espied the Dutch cognomen under which this lady killer labors, he sighed a long sigh and threw his black hat "Charlie" on the floor, for he knew that he had a pupil who could always make some kind of an answer "willy­nilly"—a fellow who could "blow both hot and cold."

But a misfortune befell Finney when a politi­ cal deal fell through and, sad to say, he was "left with the bag to hold."

PHIL MONTAGUE FLANNAGAN POWHATAN, VIRGIN IA

Varsity Club; Varsity Baseball Team.

"Hoss" comes from Powhatan, and he often takes occasion to tell us how they do things "up home." It is interesting to hear him relate how the sheriff arrested without a warrant, how passengers are gouged on the narrow guage which is the pride of his county, but he seldom attempts to tell Dr. McNeil the holdings of the court in criminal cases.

He will represent us on the baseball team this year.

WILMER L. O'FLAHERTY, B. A. RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

Kappa Alpha; Delta Theta Phi; Historian of Junior Law Class.

"Leag" left college in 1911 with his de­ gree and many college honors, but he left his heart. He has come back for another de­ gree and to look for his heart. We hope he will get the former, but we believe the latter is in safe keeping. "Leag" is very popular and rightfully so. He is a hard student and always interested in college activities, but we like him most for his excellent notes, which are so helpful for review purposes, and for his room as a study.

IDobson

When in the fall of 1913, Mr. Dobson came to Richmond College, Athletics had reached a pitiful stage of stagnation. With firm hand, trained n i nd and body, and a fearless courage that has yet to acknowledge defeat, he bent to his task. And from a most discouraging collection of material, he molded a fighting machine of boys who lived, breathed and fought with his spirit surging through them. Of how he guided that team to a championship—the first in so many years—we all know. And how he took hold of a few faithful workers and, struggling against odds which would have crushed any other, slowly but as surely piloted the little band to a championship in basketball—the first year the team had existed—is now past and glorious history. And how he developed very mediocre matejial into a track team that captured second place in one of the biggest Southern Meets, is but another star in his crown. And, in spite of every difficulty and misfortune, we are sure that the baseball team that he selects will be one to reflect honor on the Red and Blue.

But the most interesting side of all of Mr. Bobson's connection with Richmond College, is not so much his results as his methods. There is no other like him. lie has no greater admirers than those who have been fortunate enough to come into close touch with him. There has never been another in his capacity who has been so cordially loved and universally respected. And the boys who have received his teaching, are now, because of it, better, cleaner, and nobler. To know his achievements, is to admire him; to know his methods, is to respect him; to know the man, is to love him.

For weeks, fleeting glimpses of half­clad young men Trotting our thoroughfares made our heads swim, As they galloped and gamboled in scanty attire— For the scandalized public to frown and admire.

The Marathon runners assembled en masse And each runner wished to all others surpass; And all were bedecked with gay ribbons galore, And trophies, a few from some former race wore.

The populace gathered and crowded the streets, And each blushing maiden her young hero greets— As they step to the mark and prepare for the race, And at last all are waiting the start of the pace.

The Pure Food and Drug Guarantee was in vain, An unattached Hiteshu was first in the train; Then in puffed "slim" Ileubi, the second in line, And third, J. Vaughn Gary came on just behind.

The multitudes gathered were loud in acclaim, As the trophies were pinned on these runners of fame, And the much­troubled city sank softly to rest, Vo more to he shocked by young men half undressed.

I Full eighty years your towers have lifted to the blue, And men have known and loved you, and men have found you true.

Through storm and strife and burning, you've weathered every gale; But now you're done with learning—your site is marked "For Sale."

II Your score­marked walls, your time­racked halls, your slated turrets too, Will back to earth that gave them birth, and ask no other due; On campus green no more be seen the face of learning's lover, For steeples tall and houses all your pleasant grounds will cover. in Goodbye, old shell, you've served us well, you've given of your best; Your noble sway must now give way and you for aye shall rest.

In sadness rife (for such is life)—we say it with a sigh— Soon will you sleep in slumbers deep 'neath some Nirvanyan sky.

(31 ee Club Sketches Typical letter from Business Manager to a fossilized feminine Presiding Officer, in asking for a date for the Clubs:

DR. PRISCILLA LE MON, GIRL JOINT, YA. DEAR OLD TCP—I say, what's the chances of our coming down to your joint and rendering a concert entitled "The Suffering of the Richmond Coilege Squawlers' Ass'n"? We've got soire classy mob of voice artists, as well as a crew who finger the catgut and copper chords right lively. And, by the way, old Rummy, you've got SOME bunch of skirts down to your school, I '11 have to hand it to you on that. And, believe me, when they are set up along side of our nifty music extractors, they will look like pink apple blossoms on a saff­on sky of royal purple. Take it from me, I'm the guy that put this letter in the postoffice.

Concerning the financial arrangements, necessarily attendant upon such entertaining evenings, would further add that for a quarter's worth of brass tacks and dog­biscuit, per capita, we will entertain, and in the final settlement, we will take the dog­biscuit and you can have the brass tacks.

Thanking you for your kind acceptance, which I am sure you will for­ ward by return mail, I beg to be allowed to remain,

Your in Christian Faith and Brotherly Love, JOHN J. WICKER, JR., Manager.

HE past session of the Y. M. C. A. has been characterized hy good work on the part of the leaders, and by a greater following than has been seen for sometime in the history of the organization. At the Thursday­night meetings, the students have been addressed by speakers of the city, or men who were visiting in the city at that time. Many very helpful and interesting talks have been given. A series of lectures, especially suited to college men, was given by Dr. W. D. Weatherford. Dr. Weatherford was found to be a man of unusual attainments, and highly pleased the audiences that heard him. After Christmas the Y. if. C. A. secured men to speak at the chapel service on the "Choice of a Life Work." Considerations to be held in selecting one's work, and different phases of life that call the college student, were clearly presented before the student body.

The real work of the Y. M. C. A., however, is not shown hy these facts, which represent some of the opportunities offered by the Y. M. C. A. During the fall term, Bible Study classes were organized in the different buildings on the campus. In the winter term these classes gave place to mission study. It has been the custom to get professors to conduct these classes, but by this method it was found that only a limited number could he reached. Therefore, the Y. M. C. A. adopted a different course by having a student in each dormitory teach a class. Five different classes were formed to study the most vital and interesting topics before the Christian world today, and include a member­ ship of about seventy­five. Each week members of the association conduct services at the various missions in the city. To him who goes with these com­ mittees to take a little sunshine into darkened hearts, there is reflected a great part of the joy and sunshine. To see the joy on the faces of the people confined in these charity institutions amply repays him for his effort to cheer the inmates.

The officers for the next session are thoroughly representative of the various sides of college life, and bespeak the co­operation of all students at the new quarters at Westhampton. The Y. M. C. A. is planning to make the next session, the first at the new site, excel the work of all previous sessions.

Crammers Club Here we are, the Cramirers! Did you ever see such a greedy, greedy bunch? All of us are hungry, from the smallest rat to the "grave and reverend Senior." You'll find in our club that just a bit of "eats" makes every co­ed kin.

Hush! did you ever expect to see those models of dignity, Madge Clendon, Hazel Gary and Eloise Harris munching away on bananas and toasted marshmallows with that dreamy look of delight on their faces? And then under the table there are Mary Shine, Bachel Pearce and Lillian Harding. Actually they are so fond of a dinner table that they will even crowd under one, just to be near it. Since Celeste Anderson, Margaret James and Blanche Hawkins declared their allegiance, they have thrived so monstrously that they look fully capable of cutting a cord of wood before breakfast. Don't think for a minute that Constance Gay, Buth Elliott and Sally Wills Holland are feeling sad. That dreamy look means that they are thinking of dinner. Have you noticed Kathleen Bland and Ethel Smither? We knew they were greedy, but we did not think that they would have the sheer audacity to have their pictures taken devoring the same banana. We don't know what we could do without Yerna Anderson, Frieda Dietz and Mary Delia Smith.

They have won a real place among us by their enormous eating capacities. And then, just in the n i ddle of the picture Norma Woodward and Irene Stiff, are fighting over something to eat. It's a very characteristic pose, I assure you.

And now you are introduced to us all. We're a happy crowd. Aren't the people who love good "eats" always the happiest?

249

Hntt^Cvammevs Club Oh, see the an­ti­Cram­ir.ers! An an­ti­Crannrer is one who an­ti­crams. Here they are: Margaret Mon­tei­ro has just pulled the cig­a­rette out of her mouth long e nough to have her picture taken; Jean­nette Bryce did not want to be in the club be cause there were no boys in it; while Dor­o­thy Smith, who sits next to her, frank­ly shuns boys. This goes to show that you can't please ev­er­y body. Au drey Dil lon and Yir­gin­ia Crump are in the pic­ture just for looks. Their hearts aren't in the cause of an­ti­cram­ming, but per­ haps the reason is they are some where else. Please ob serve how Cor ne lia Har­ris holds our guar­di­an spir­it with one hand while she stu dies with the o t her. Lou­ise Bald­win is next, and at her feet is E­liz­a­beth Gray. They joned the club simply in order to im­ press Dr. Har­ris. El­ ea­nor Co­pen­liav­er joined it so she could show the boys at home with whom she passed her time. No­tice how O­liv­ia J. Gwalt­ney gaz es soul­ful­ly at her book. It's the way she does when she don't want a pro fes sor to call on her. But Lou­ ise Mar­tin looks straight ahead, and hopes he won't see her. Al­though the num­ber of books scat­tered around ter­ri­fied Lou ise Goep­farth, she a greed to hold one, five seconds, so as to be eligible to our club. Al ice Spi­ers is read­ing French. Nuf ced. See how Helen Mon­sell hugs her books. Don't you wish you were a book? Gladys John­son looks up o­ver her glass­es. She is go­ing to say some­thing sweet—and that fin­ish­es the an­ti­Cram­ers.

OCIALLY as in every other line of College activity, this the last year at the old College, has, indeed, been a banner year. The season was opened by the Faculty Reception, held soon after the session started. This atfair, which was managed by the co­eds, was not only very enjoyable, but provided an excellent opportunity for the old and new students to become acquainted. The Junior­Freshman Fair, held soon after, was the most novel and interesting class entertainment that has been held in years.

In October, Dr. and ^Irs. Boatwright entertained the Senior class and the co­eds at their home. Some of the guests volunteered with songs and recita­ tions, and these followed by delightful refreshments helped to make a most en­ joyable evening.

The next affair of note, was the Senior­Sophomore Reception held in February. It was the first time these sister classes had gotten together, and it wTas pronounced by all a most enjoyable evening, and one well worth repeating.

W e now have the Commencement functions to look forward to. Of these the Senior Dance, which was inaugurated in 1912, is probably the most notable.

Besides this there Avill be the Senior Banquet, and some interclass receptions.

The Fraternity world has also been in the social whirl. Among these might be mentioned the Pi Kappa Alpha dance; the Phi Kappa Sigma theatre party and banquet; the Zeta Xi banquet and the Kappa Sigma banquet.

Of course THE social organization is the German Club. The club held its first meeting of the year on November 14th, and elected the following officers: President, J. W. C. Johnson; Vice­President, K. B. Lewis; Secretary­Treasurer, Fred Yale Toy. A committee consisting of Toy, Bowles and Dunford was appointed to arrange for the Thanksgiving German dance. This dance was held at the Hermitage Club on November 26th. The club was attractively decorated, and a very delightful buffet supper was served at eleven. The dance, on the whole, was a very enjoyable ore, in spite of the small number present.

The Easter and Final Germans are still in the future, but it is safe to predict, from past experiences, that these will be brilliant and enjoyable affairs.

As is the usual custom of the club these will both be held at the Country Club.

In concluding the account of this most brilliant social year, let us say that it is our hope that, for the sake of the old Alma Mater, the student body will take an ever increasing interest in the social life of the college, and make each year eclipse the proceeding one.

And now we leave old 11. C . Y. Its Professors, kind and true, But while 'tis joy to graduate We learn 'tis sorrow, too.

CHORUS—And now with heads bowed reverently,

With voices sweet we'll tell, Farewell, our Alma Mater, dear, Old E. C. V., farewell.

Then let us take a long, last look At classmates, rooms, and halls; Then tenderly sweet pictures trace— To hang on memory's walk.

And now through all the future years, A'o matter where we roam, We'll ne'er forget old Ii. C. Y., Our joyous College home.

And when rude hands shall tear thee down Then quick will flow love's tear.

For though you'll e'er be lost to sight, To memory you'll still he dear.

God grant through all the coming years Fondest memories our hearts entwine.

"And we'll take a cup of kindness yet For the days of Auld Lang Syne."

FIBST CO­ED (admiringly to neighbor)—"Ain't his hair cute?"

SECOND CO­ED (gushingly)—"Perfectly darling."

(Disturbance on front row between a student and a Jasper, during which another co­ed enters with a small stray dog.)

BOBBY—"Good morning, Miss

(Vociferous applause, during which Bowles' leaned­back chair slips from under him, causing him to fold up between the chair and wall. Louder applause.)

257

BOBHY—"Little weak in your foundations, Mr. Bowles?"

(Stamping of feet; surprised canine yelps once, and is smothered with caresses from the co­eds, who place it on a chair in their midst. Class become quieter, except for occasional tittering.)

BOBBY (opening a book)—"Voulez­vous commencer ? Monsieur—Mon­ sieur—Mademoiselle—Mademoiselle (looking around class)—Mademoiselle Anderson."

Miss ANDERSON—"Not prepared, Doctor."

BOBBY—"Mademoiselle—Mademoiselle Shine."

BOBBY—­"Bon soir, Monsieur Diggs."

(More laughter.) "Well, go

(Miss Shine reads one or two words.)

BOBBY—"Bv­the­way, there's a gentleman at the Y. M. C. A. who claims

to teach French in six week. Better go down and try him. Well, go ahead."

(Miss Shine starts to read again.)

BOBBY—"Well, I'll just read along a little and ask a few questions.

(Canine becomes weary, jumps down frcm chair, yawns and exit. Much tittering.)

Miss MARTIN—"No." (Bobby continues to read. Bell rings.)

Zbc 1Refector\> "Let lis eat, drink and be merry, For tomorrow we die."

A

WAY back somewhere in the poorly lighted ages, Richmond College was founded. All was well for a long while—various young hopefuls being sent (and some coming) here to drink at this fount of knowledge, and with the hay seed still clinging to their locks—healthy and strong at first, and this fact alone worked their undoing.

The various forms of mild discipline instituted here, at the time, did not seem to have the desired effect, and the Trustees realized that some drastic measures must be resorted to at once—and so was born the Refectory—the idea not being for corporal punishment, pri­ marily, but only to break the spirit of the boisterous youth. And oh! how well this plan has worked! Since its erection three new hospitals have been built, each within a square of the campus, and the Virginia Home for Incurables has to have a Tag Day, every three weeks, in an effort to supply Richmond College Alun ni with food and clothes before they, in a short while succumb to this dreadful malady, called Refectoryitis, for which the Medical Science has never fathomed a cure.

Gentle reader, in the short space that remains before the Keepers come to put us again into custody, bear with us in these few statistics; in further pursuing the subject of our remarks: In the past five years fifty­seven men have been killed in the wild rush at meal­time; thirty­two dropped dead after surviving the afore­mentioned rush and viewing the contents of the tables; fourteen starved, while two long­winded Jaspers gave thanks for the bountiful supply of food which they saw not; twenty­seven waiters have been killed by indignant students; nineteen students have grown deaf, listening to Jaspers inhaling soup; eleven managers have lost their minds, because of the failure of students to pay their board at the proper time. The students were not responsible for this, however, as they were too weak to carry money.

We are loath to credit the various reports that have recently pervaded the atmosphere in and about the College, to the effect that the ancient goat, used on the athletic field dur­ ing past years, will never be seen again. We do not care to discuss the matter further, nor do we care to mention the fact that "Preacher's" dog can no longer be seen hereabouts; nor will we apologize for the unusual number of intoxicants during the past year, by in­ quiring into the state or condition of the nineteen carloads of apples recently purchased by the manager, at a reduced cost.

Some of us may go to Westhampton—it is only a matter of conjecture, however, de­ pending solely on the recuperative effects of this summer. But in parting, we wish to oTer many apologies to the eminent minister, who on the Sunday following an occasion on which he partook of a meal at the Refectory, took as his text, the following: "O Lord, why has this great weakness come upon me?" And further, * * * we * * * (EDITOR'S NOTE—We regret to state that the writer died, from loss of food, before this

article was completed.)

The boys had just seated themselves at the breakfast table in the hotel, at Staunton, while on the Glee Club trip. "Uncle" Harwood ordered cakes, rolls and coffee. The ebony­hued waiter turned to our "basso prof undo" and said, "How will you have your aigs, suh?" Garland replied, "You may eliminate my eggs this time." The negro looked at him and went to the kitchen. Returning shortly, he said, "Eh, eh, Mister, how did you say you would have your aigs?" Again our famous basso replied, "I said you could eliminate the eggs." Back went the negro to the kitchen, but pretty soon he returned and said, "Say Mister, we have got a splendid chef, but he say that he don't have no tools to 'liminate no aigs."

"Judge" Crymes was being cross­examined by "Prosecuting Attorney" Sid King in "Justice" McNeill's Moot Court.

KING—"Are you acquainted with any of the gentlemen of the jury?"

CRYMES—"Yes, sir; more than half of them."

KING—"Are you willing to swear that you know more than half of them?"

CRYMES—"If it comes to that I'm willing to swear that I know more than the whole lot of them put together.''

And Bailiff "Dolly" Pitt broke the gavel knocking for order.

Artist Hudson (of the SPIDER Staff) had just submitted some drawing for the Annual, and asked Manager Halstead, "What do you think of my execution?" Manager Halstead replied, "I'm in favor of it."

Blossom Bloom had called to see a certain co­ed who lives in the West End. Con­ versation hung fire badly. There were several matters he wishes to discuss—one in par­ ticular—but somehow he could not muster the courage, and the silence became really painful. "I was speaking with your father last night," he said at last, somewhat inanely.

"Oh, were you?" answered the sweet young thing, lowering her eyes. "Er—what were y0U—er—talking about?" "About the likelihood of war in Mexico. Your father said that if there was to be fighting he hoped it would soon be over." The sweet young thing smiled. "Yes," she ren arked, "I know he's very much opposed to long engagements."

Eowles and Coghill were visiting a British Museum while in London last summer.

Bowles inquired of an attendant, "Haven't you a skull of Cromwell here? I have been looking all around for a skull of Oliver Cromwell." No, sir," replied the attendant, "we've never had one." "That's peculiar," said Bowles, "they have a very fine one in the museum at Oxford."

Harvey had just returned from Paris and said to his old aunt in the country: "Here, aunt, is a silver franc piece I brought you from Paris as a souvenir." "Thanks, Harvey," said the old lady. "1 wish you'd thought to have brought me home one of them Latin quarters I read so n u ch about.''

N.

Paddles, Paddles, everywhere And all the goats did shrink.

Paddles, Paddles everywhere, Of coming blows they think.

A yell, a thump and then a squeal, O God, the poor goat save!

Blow after blow; see him reel Bring water his wounds to lave.

His brothers now around him crowd, For licks and blows are past.

Each of the other truly proud, With hands in friendship clasped.

262

Un parting The Old Richmond College is a thing of the past—'twill soon be but a memory. In the ruthless march of progress, Alma Mater is engulfed by the onward­rushing monster. For four score years she has sheltered her sons and daughters, and given them of her best. Even as her hour approached, she rallied her forces and made the year 1914 the sweetest and the best of all.

May the 1914 SPIDEK cherish her memory in your hearts.

Htcftmonti College When it opens in September, 1914, will consist of 1—The College for Men 2—The College for Women 3—The College of Law 4—The Richmond Academy HE NEW BUILDINGS are of the best modern construc­ tion, and have cost over one million dollars. The equipment throughout is of the best type. The College for Men and the College for Women will be of the same grade, but entirely separate in all matters of student life and instruction. The young men will have their campus of 150 acres, their own classrooms and their separate institutional life. The young women will have a campus of 130 acres and their own group of buildings, including classrooms and dormi­ tories.

Admission standards for both men and women are fifteen entrance units and a minimum age of sixteen years. Students with twelve units may be admitted on condition. College fees and matricula­ tion, tuition and incidentals are identical for both men and women, and are the same that have been hitherto charged by the college for men.

In its beautiful new location, with spacious grounds, buildings of permanent construction, and larger resources, Richmond College will enter next September upon a new epoch in its history. The new site is about three and one­half miles west of the campus occupied for eighty years, and is connected with the heart of the city by good street car service with a five­cent fare.

Catalogues are issued for each of the four departments named above, and applicants are requested to state which catalogue is de­ sired. Rooms in the dormitories are assigned in order of applica­ tion. For catalogue and information address, PRESIDENT F. W. BOATWRIG1IT, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA.
