Down a Peg
By GRACE 11. BRANE,'14 Chapter II.
l;:lc lIl to `\\\l?IC?1f :\言1l on:1
College was situated, wa、 reputed to be very quiet. lndeed, its quietude would ha, c grown to dull
n心s many a time had nut the students
...cl lire. so to speak to the torpid condition. Cp until this time, about the middleof October, the village wascull
、tantly a、tir with some new prank.
s,imc evening uutbur、t. At la吐, howeyer, on this ideal autumn eve111ng there wa,,如thing to disturb the longeel-for peace. The moon, herself
�cemecl to notice the change and t J 叶nat oYcr the reinstatement into her ,.., rightful claim upon the night. The
、mile on her face as she slid in and nut among the clouds indicated her pleasure. For se,·eral nights the no沁 、ccmcd to make her pee沁h. and her face,,·nre a frown. Xow it ha<l changed. E,·erything was in such perfect harmony to-nig-ht. !here wa_s ;rnt a single intimation of a rough wind to break the stillness. Even the harmles、,little leaves which occasion.. ally fell from the nourishing hranch�c; of-the old mother tree slipped stealthily to the f);round, as if fearing to cau沁 a-disturhance, and to break in upon the eternal fitness of things.
Suddenly, bursting out through the tall dark trees, wholly ludicrous in . comparison to the night, came the in. evitable sound.
..Fanning, rah!
Fanning, rah!
Rah! rah! Fanning!"
\ large group of fellows had collccted on the west side of the campus, and were anticipating a big time. Eckert Fanning \\'as to be the inter匹ting object nf their fun, as had ju5t been announced lJy the yell that s J unceremoniously marred the stillncs;; of the night.
,\fter the yell \\'as given, the next thing to he done was to secure Fanning. 1n a short time the fellows formed into a long line and marched do\\'n the 寸rcct, each one singing his O\Yn particular,ersion of his favnnte popular c;ong, while the accompanimcnt\\as made by an inefficient clrummcr and a cornetest \\'ho added to the din by trying- to play snalchec, of every 心ng he heard. \Vhen they came tu the place \\'here Fanning romned, the procession halted. Then cries of "Fanning-," "Lord Algy," ('IIis Lordship." "The dude, doncher kno\\'"! and many similar epithet;;, came from the crowd. In the mea正 time scYcral of the fellows had climli叫up on the porch roof. and were calling tn him.
"Come on out,Lizzie, here's a surprise party for you."
\Yhcn he appeared at the window, wrapped up in a gaudy bath robe, a howl was set up from the crowd be-
''T
勹心.
luw, while those above repeated their jest.
霄s awfully kind, don't you know, er-er-fellows," he stammered,''But really, don't you know, I'm hardlj presentable” But they gave him no time for argument.'lhe window had been raised as soon as he appeared. and his callers had seized him and had handed him down to the waitin;� cru1Yd almost beforehe knewit.
Very little time was wasted in getting started again. The limited orche斗ra took up their discordant straii1 once more, and soon the feeble protests of Fanning were lost amid the deafening whoops and songs. Up one street and down another they marched until they reached the cemetery
As they turned in upon the gravel walk the noise ceased, and Fanning was heard to say,
"Really, don't. you know,these slippcrs l goi in Lon<lon are awfully thi扎 for these �tones."
`',「 \. ry mericanshoessometime," was the un�ympathetic suggestion, and Fanning- was compelled io limp on.
Finally the procession halted, an<! the boys crowded around in a lar1;e semicircle.
"'.'J"ow." heg·an a short, stumpy fellow, evidently the spokesman of the group, as he turned to Fanning. "The idea is for you t.o make a speech t(勹 Senator Graham." 1\nd he stepped aside and shm·ed his hands into his pocketsas much as to say that he had done his part of the program, and tha1 it was up to somehody else to finish it up.
侃but which is the gentleman?'' Fanning hesitated, gazing questionly at the crowd, uncertain as to whether he should 1.ry 1.o make his escape, or whether the fellow meant what he said.
"The gentleman," said Stumpy, indicating wilh a pudgy forefinger,飞 the one right there beneath the sod."
•·Don't be too sure, Stumpy," inter·· posed another,叮hey say the Senat可 wasn't any too conscientiuns."
Then cries of ··speech," "Speech" can�e from the waiting hearers.
"Isn't it sort of-of unusual了'objc心 ed 1:he unwilling· orator.
, Cheers and cries of "liear'him!" and "Speech''again filled the ai1二
"Doesn't need to lie especially H,>w· ery,''put in a Yoice frurn the rear, a、 no sound came from Fanning.
"Let him alone," shouted another, "He'll talk when he realizes what's expectedof him. Letit soak in a while."
"I knownothingof eitherthis gentlemanorhisfamily,'' protested Fanning-.
"Now, look here, yuu pup," sat'f stumpy, impatiently. ''You don't need to know anythin� of "ithcr'thi; gentleman or his family.,\11 you need to know aliout him is that he is dead. Your job is to deliYer an oration to him in behalf of this a..,sembly. Now, get on to your bi7 !''
"Dut really “he beg-an, again.
"Orate!" they commanded him.
Finally he straightened up an<l started his speech to the honored dead.
"i\rost highly esteemed Senatoh Graham-"
"Crackers" supplemented one of the audience irrelC\'antly: hut the speaker went on unheeding-.
“We han gathehed hcah to sing thy praise . ',
"TTeann help us," pleaded Stumpy in an undertone, "vVe didn't say sing, we said speak."
"Don't get excited, Stumpy," someone whispered, "Ile doesn't mean H; he's just poetic."
"We glory in thy greatness," Fanning continued. "We we we ahe

The Spirit of 1916
By H. L. STEPHENS, President of Class 1916
.!\Jost fortunate indeed haYe been the lirst impressions of the Freshman class of Otterbein Heartily welco med into the institution by upper class men, faculty and former class mates, the Fresh men ha,·e drank deep their fir汃 draught of "ye college spirit,'' that in酗nable, permeating atmosphere of �·uod fellowship, surrounding Otterhcin.
They ha,,e soon recognized that pre占minant spirit of youth,with its actiYity and happiness. Coupled witl.1 this, they haYe found a spirit of helpfulncss. such as they ha,1e never experienced in the commercial and industrial ,Yorld, fro m which many have come; that spirit which makes each 0ne feel that everyone has a personal interest in his or her ·welfare. This certainh· has allayed the many fears entertained by some of their number that of being; lost in the ho只t of students, when coming as strangers. That e11Yirnnrnent of good fellowship at the class sessions. on the ca mpus, in the society meetings, and at the so cial affairs soon touches the responsiYe chorrl of friend�hip in their Uve-s.
The outlook for the Fresh man Clas、 is a mostpro mi印ingone. Althoughcomparativcly but a few weeks old, as students of the college, the class has early shown its willingness to assume its proper relations in the college life. The influence of its members has already been felt. In athletics, in the Y. I\I. C. A., in the Y. \V. C. 1\., in society and religious work. The class, being composed of such a Yaried numher of students, all new in the work, has not as yet struck its stride, but the time is not far distant, when friendships and co mmon interests wia find their entire number as a chain or loyal workers. where weak links will have no place.
But not existing; for itself alone, will be the ,spirit· of its members, but achieving; for the glory of Otterbein. The class has been characterized a a boat、 just launched on the river of learnin�. slowly but surely making its wav down stream-not one, merely driftinr- midway in the stream, Iivint; within itself until it reaches its destination four years hence. but one whose influence will be felt throughout its

The Class of 11..l1Ii is the largest in thc history ofOtlcrbcin. Sin\ty-SCV七II are now enrolled and this number will be increased to se,·enty-fivc at the be ginning uf the second scm心tcr. Thi:; number is divided as nearly equal as i� pos、ihlc, there being thirt_)·-four g·irl、 and thirty-three boys. It has been suggested that this extra girl be take:1 care of by one of the big men of which theclasshas several. Three states arc represented and nine different church denominations.
Already the class is interested and taking an active part in college life and activities. Eight men are out on the gridiron each afternoon and are making the olderand mnre e、perienced men fight for their places. In the other branches of athletics the class will be equally as well if not better rep-
resented. In the musical nrga111 z心 tions the cla、 of 1!)lfi shows up well.

Though this work ha':'not yet ran the gauntlet of drastic criticism, its superlati\'e worth overwhelms the mind of even the mos.: fortuitous reader and the verdict of the critic is unnecessary. General Robert I�. Lee is portrayed to succeeding gencratiuns in a way unknown to history or biography. General Grant lives befure the reader in an intimacy only ri\'alc<l by the impression of that great (;eneral's immortal Memoirs. Even the thorough-bred mounts of these
heroes are placed in the columns of history through the fertile pen of Genera! Schaff.
An unsolicited word from Dr T. _l Sanders may be fittingly quoted. in which he says, "There is nu writer ul the ages finer in descriptive writing: simply unsurpassed in eleg-ant diction.'
\Ve are glad that General Schaff i.., 沁11in splendid health and spirits ; anJ hope and trust that he may gladden uu1 hearts with many more meritorious works.

We were all especially inspired by the excellent address hy l'rof. L. A \\'einland on Oct. 10, on the subjec� 叮he (如)(l that the Y. ::-.I. C.

If the school has a mission it is that of making leaders. Then take up church work actiYely when you return to your homes. Fellowship created here should gn and will go through life. T]1c only way tn make great dividends is to make hig imcstment.;. Then throw yourself. heart and soul int,1 the wnrk.

The first month of the Y. \V C. A. thi、 year has had a great influence upon the girls. The second meetin� 1、f the vear was the Bible and Missio八 Rally. Dr. lluhcr was present and spoke to the girls on the relation of th� Bihle and Missions. The suhject of missions is one of the most vital subjectsofthepresentday. \Ve study missions not only hecause of the educational and cultural Yalue hut because of the present day need of it in our nation. \Ve cannot study missions and derive any everlasting goorl from it unless we have a deep conviction of the truth behind it. Hence the Bihle is the first important study anrl missions istheoutgrowth of it.
In the next meeting the girls got close together spiritually in their "Quiet Talk." Life is not made �p entirely of outward expression. In
fact she who makes the best expression uf her life has had a deep impression of herself upon herself一her quie� talk and analysis of her real self.
The last meeting- of the month was the Finance Rally. It is uftcn a difticult thing- tu decide just how much we 、hould sig-n for, hut if we put the Lord on our note it will he all rig-ht in the end.

number of students and town people being present, to study the excellen. selectiuns made hy l'rof. Resler. It is hoped that the membership of the Chorus will reach the I00 mark this year. Everyone should get behind this organization and push, because this i.; one of the most potent factors in Otterbein's musical life. The educational value, in a musical way. of one of the concerts by the Choral Society, l'annnt he overestimated. Excellent talent for the semi-annual concerts, i: always secured from abroad and these entertainments arc events in this section of the country.
,\s usual, Otterbein School of Music is sending a hit:- delegation to Columhus, to attend the course of musical entertainments offered by the \Vomen's Music Club of that city. Thes� concerts are of \'Cry high order and a!! students who like music can make n,1 mistake in availing themselves of thi,; opportunity to hear the best music, performed by the best of the world's artists.
The monthly recitals are soon tu begin. One has been scheduled to be given about the 23d of October. The numbers are given by students of the various teachers; preparation bein� made in the regular lessons. These public musicals are free '. and Lambert Hall is usua]]y taxed to its limit to held the crowd.
Mr Redd, calling to see Hartman at his home on corner of State and Wal.nut street said “Hartman,when are you going to be through with this house?"
Hartman “In two years"
Redd “All right I want it then."
Among Our Exchanges
In opening- this department of the .\egis we wish to say that it is our intention to increase the value of ou, exchanges and to criticise as well a、 to comment, but all in a friendly and helpful spirit.
Likewise we shall look for criticisms from other exchange editors and shall accept them with appreciation, for thoughtful and friendly criticism is an incentive to progress.
The M-H Aerolith comes to us this month with a neat and attractive cover page which invites us to inquire(、f her mission. On examination we fin.l ourselves facing the large graduatin:::, class of last year. Presently we see once more the "Old Mill Stream" and the beautiful meadow with its lowing herd.
These pictures mean much to us as a mental recreation from the monotonous printed page with which college students are so familiar.
In the College Chronicle may be found the requisites and obligations o� the successful student. As to requisites, it says that every purposeful student should strive to develope himself spiritually, intellectually, socially, and physically. As to obligations; he ,;; obligated toward his home, toward his college, toward himself.
Read this I It is worth your white.
Dickenson Union Your editorials and jokes occupy too much space for the size of your paper. The editorial department surpasses the literary department in size. Keep up your titerary work and you will add much to the value and dignity of your paper.
Wt= are glad to 双elcome you as a new-comer and hope to see you eac;_i month.
