E'1itorial ~XAMIN ATIONS are beginning to come in thick and fast; and with them the usual cramming on the part of some of our students in order that they may be able to pass these tests. Most of the students in Otter bein University are very much opposed to st1tjfi1tg for examination, yet, a few are still evidently guilty of it. There are many other ways in which the record for a term's \\ork can be made up and probably much more agreeable to the student, but it is, neverthe less, true that examinations bring some good results. They show the student how much of the work he has assimilated ; they bring out the parts he has neglected and keep him from that delusive thinking that he has completely

mastered the subject; they act as incentives to more careful habits of work. To the stu dent who has been honest and faithful in class room work, m 1king each recitation count, examinations are only a pleasure and such a one need have no fear of failure. It is only the man who has a 5ttperficial knowledge of the subject who fears the test. Since now the Faculty has gone back to the old method of final examinations, lessons prepared for mere recitation will not be suffi cient, but must be prepared to be remembered. "['HIS is a day of advertising: Every daily "ll"" paper anJ every magaztne devotes a great amount of space to advertisements of various kinds. Telegraph and telephone posts, and every frontage within the city limits, where it is permissible, are covered with signs of some description. All this rep resents vast sums of money. Five and ten thousand dollars is no large amount for lead ing business houses to spend j early in this department of their work. In this way firms have made themselves known all over the United States, and have exteQded their busi ness from their own city to every state. Times have come to these establishments when they have enlarged their facilities in order to make themselves able to supply demands. Money spent in advertising has made them wealthy. Others have considered money thus spent as wasted. If they advertise at all, they do it on a very meager scale. As a rernlt, the reader never hears of them, or if he happens to be one of the few that does, he at once judges the business to be in proportion to the

"ad." Many a business house has failed in making progress because not enough people knew Qf its existence. So has it been with colleges. Everybody knows that there is a Yale, or a Harvard. And who can predict what would be the re sult if Otterbein was oiil)' as 1,,•e/1 knowu'? It is a univtrsal belief, "If you have ·omething good you are not afraid to kt the world know it."

\Ve are certain that the literary wori<: of no college in the state is more highly prized than at Otterbein, and that this special interest will enable us to hold a high place among the orators 111 the state, if only the same earnest• ness can be carried into tht" state contest that exists in the societies. One who won first place for Otterbein was a student who permitted timidity to keep him from entering until his senior year, and then E marked feature i:-. quite noticeable in it was only the great pressure brought upon college life. That is procrastination. him by his friends that persuaded him to un Too many things that mi, ht have been done dertake it. This should not be. Every stu in the fore part or middle uf the term, are left dent should prize his own worth, and take until the last moment. Class theses, labora advantage of these opportunities. These are not only for the gentlemen ora tory work and many other things are put off until it necessitates an overtaxing effort to tors but for the ladies also. In the last five clear up the term's work. How often do we years only one girl has made an effort to win hear of certain undertakings, being retarded t!:e honor of representing Otterbein. This by some one person not having comµleted his year, let us have a large Pumber of contest part. One of the greatest pests, that "e have ants. to deal with to-day is the member of a board, or of a committee, or of ome other organization that is always h , ]ding the remaining m< mbers in suspense. Never being ready for the occa sion. lL is a habit that can be formed, and a sure index to failure in after life. The complaint has been made in the shops that many of the college men art reckless and show a lack of interest. For this no excuse can be offered. We do not believe that the charge is a universal one, but must confess that it is too oft the case. T will not be long until the local oratorical contest will be he1 e, and, in ord, r that Otterbei;i may have her best rtpre sentative in the state contest, it will be neces sary to begin to stir uµ enthm,iasm. \Ve trust that no hasty preparation \\'ill be indulged in this year. The low rank which Otterbein held last year can easily be understood \\ hen we remember that, when the time set for the local contest came, nobody was ready to enter, and that it had to be postponed until hasty 1,n:paraticn could be made.

Prof. R. ·wagoner deserves mention for the service he ha'> rendered toward athletics. He knows how to make a canvass for money, and is not backw,,rd about going aft( r it. Whenever the atl,letic board has want{ d ad\ ice they have said, •·Speak to Professor Wag oner." He is the man to whom all credit is due for the successful can\·ass this year.

"Lampers," as he is familiarly called, has finished his third season on the Otterbein team at left guard. Although deficient in some qualities that a captain should possess, he did his best at all times, even though he was not in condition to put forth his be!>t efforts, his opponent always knew there was something to do when the "captain" went after him. His play has improved over that of last season, both in opening holes and stop ping plays directed at him. He is always aggressive. On this account he has been picked by many of the coaches for the All Ohio team. He deserves only praise for his work this season. MCLEOD, CENTER

The face of Williams was seen upon the football field this year, for the first time. He is very light for a guard but for a green man filled the position in a creditable manner. With more weight and a better playing knowl edge of the game he should develop into a first-class man next season.

Van has played his last game for 0. U. He was transferred last season from center to right tackle, which position he has held for the past two y ars. His play has improved this season, too. particularly on the defensive. At times it was brilliant, being especially

This was the first season on regular for Mac and he has made a fine showing at such a diffi cult position. His strong point is his defense, and above all he is a strong, earnest worker. FLICK, QUARTERBACK

MANAGER VANSICKLE ALTMAN,

RIGHT END

This position has been ably taken care of this season by "Buckeye." Fast, nervy and aggressive, he and Cowan are probably for their weight the best e11ds in the state. This opinion is held by many in a position to know. Altman hits an interference low and hard, and is very clever in picking out the man carrying the ball. He also rushes the ball well himself, when given a chance, his only fault is le:1ving his interference and striking off by himself. Practice, however, will prob ably remedy this.

COWAN, LEFT END

"Ikey" his running mate is also a good end. There is little comparison between the two. Both have the same good points and the same faults. Cowan perhaps is better on keeping the play inside of him. In the open field, where each should shine neither one did very good work, principally for the reason that both overrun the man when going down the field. In their over-eagerness to get the

"Booky" is also an exceptional player, good on both o:lense and defense, but was deterred from playing early in the season owing to hi~ physical condition. He is an excellent defensive quarter and heady when directing the ball. SHIVELY, QUAKTI.KBACK

Van Auken's work has been very erratic, both good and bad, but on the whole fair. He handles himself well and with more expe rience ,, ill make something of himself.

"Sardy" Bates, our next captain, has prob ably improved more than any man on the team. He is a cool, aggressive, heady player, and on the offensive has gained against every team played against. His worst fault is fum bling, and this is principally due to his over anxiety to advance the ball. ext year Otterbein can look forward to a man who can be trusted to do his utmost to get a winning team, he himself a man of integ rity and college sp:rit, has a right to and will expect every one who calls himself a college man to stand with him.

Some, even though they had not the slightest chance of making the team. These men have the thanks of the management. Kiehl, Titus, Beeson, Guy, 1 e,,man, Funk, show promise of being good men in time, all of them are light and inexperienced, but show they have football in them which has only need to be developed. All of them have done good work and another season should place them in faster company.

OTTERBEIN 6, WOOSTER 6

O tterbein ended her foot b..lll season for 1902 by a tie with Wooster. The game was very well playd throughout and lost only through the ill luck which has followed us all through the season. VanSickle kicked off to th e 20-yard line when the ball went to Otter bein on a fumble. A ftw rapid pl3.) s brought thtball to Wooster's 10 -yard line to be lost as it was gained on a fumble. After a few inef fectual attempts at ou r line Wooster was obliged to punt, and from the middle of the field the O ,te rbe in ends and backs took the b .111 steadily up the field and over the line for the first touchdown of the game. Van Sickle kicked th e go.11 making the score 6-o in favor of Otte rbein. Van Auken received the second kickoff and returned it immediately. Neither Woos ter nor Otterbein could gain re peatedly and the half closed with the ball in \N -.>oster's possession in the middle of the field. During this half Flick and Altman made some fine runs with the ball and also pL1yed an excelent defensive game. Bates, Van Auken and Yost did some good hurdling. The tackling was low and hard and Worstel's opponent was forced to leave the game. The second half opened with a kickoff to Van Sickle, who returned the ball 20 yards, Ot terbein could not get together and were forced to surrender the ball on their 40-yard line. The defense now began to be rugged and aided by loose tacklin!, Wooster soon had the ball oa the 0. U's, 5 yard line. Here the weirers of the tan and cardinal showed their fi ghting spirit and Wooster could not make their distance in the three downs. Van Auken punted out of danger, Wooster ob t a ined the ball and again commenced to ham mer the line for short gains, the ends being invu lnerable, and brought the pigskin u:-ider the very sh.1d0w of the goal fort. Here the mo5t b (illiant pl1ying of the day took place, w;th only a yard to gain, Wooster was forced to take her three dow .1s to carry it over. W 0rstel, McLeod and Williams figured prooti neR ly in the defense at this point. Abbef

came within a hairs breadth of missing the g ,Hl but the refrree dtcl.lred it over and so the score was tied. After the kickoff Otterbein secure~ .the b1ll on her 30-yard line and com .menced carrying it up the field, Flick making a long run to the full back who prevented a score but just getting his man. A few more rushes and the game was over. As usual Ot terbein gained more ground but the slippery condition of the field prevented the men from dodging and making their turns with any due certainty. Both teams played well but Otter bein showed her superiority in a P ·ore varied attack and a stronger defense. Flick, Alt man, W ortsel and Bates played well.

M. MARTIN,

'96

Twas an ideal Sabbath day in July, when I crossed the North Sea from Leith. the port of Edin borough. Early the following morning, we moored in the Th1mes at London. Soon after I found myself being borne rapidly southward to Southampton, where I took a steamer and crossed over to Havre, France. The tourists' tickets in Europe are unusually generous, permitting th e traveler to break his journey practically any where he chooses. Desiring to make some investigations relat · ing to the haunts of Joan of Arc, I stopped over at Rouen for a day or so. After co m pleting my study in this place, I passed on to Paris, arriving in that city late in the afternoon. In the evening I took a stroll down t he "Champs Elysees." This is a beautiful thoroughfare, especially at nig~1t. It is one of the famous streets of the world. I have been on four others of this claf:S, Prince's stree t, Edinborough; the Strand, London; Pennsyl vania avenue, Washington; and the Rialto of Venice; but, in point of artistic design an d completeness of detail, this street surpasses them all. In the morning I took a small boat on the Seine and passed down the river to the Tro-

OTTERBEIN .L'EGIS cadero palace, near which is located the Eiffel Tower. This is one of the most interesting structures I have ever seen. The bases are placed in the four corners of a square and taper gradually into the tower proper. I had the pleasure of a5cending to the summit. The fare is three francs (sixty cents) round trip on week days and two francs on Sundays and hol idays. '\Ne had to change cars twice in the ascent. The first elevator eoes about four hundred feet. At this height there is a promi nent lookout. The platform or dimensions are ninety yards each way. There is also a hotel and theater where many good plays are to be witnessed. The next elevator carries us three hundred feet further up; then we change and the next carries us to the top, which is one thousand feet from tara jirma. The view from this eminence is wondaful; people seem pig mies; vehicles seem mere toy wagons. On clear days they say you can see almost to the ocean. The Seine is visible for 1n-les and of course the entire city can be seen. Meals can b:! obtained on the tower and the omni -present venders of souvenirs are galore. For miles and mile in every direction the city extends with its berntiful and de.inly streets, all laid out with an eye single to the general principle of beauty. After descending J paid a brief visit to the palace Trocadero and the Arch of Triumph. One evening I took another stroll, through the enchanting g1rdens of the Tuilleries. At night these gard:!ns are an attraction to the people of the city as well as to tourists. It is interesting to note how much pride is taken in the guden by the people. There is practi cally no defacing, or other nuisance commit The b tnks of the S !ine are k:!pt scrupulously clern :inJ ex:el any city I h1ve seen, in that respect. It is a soUtce of regret to me that I find it necessary to omit an extended description of my visit to Louvre. Its galleries of paintings and sculpture surpassed my most sanguine ex pectations. Here I saw many of the famous master-pieces, both of sculpture and painting,

which have called forth praises trom both hem isphers for many decades. In paintino- the work of Murillo, Prid Hon, Rubens, v:1~ Dyck, Reni, Bouguereau and Rosseau attracted me, I noticed especially ''The Victory of S:imothrace" and many pieces of sculptt1rs by Canova. I was prone to linger long by the work of this man who as his first work 1rodeled a lion out of butter, and from that humble begi·nning rose to eminence among the world's greatest sculpturs. Fro ,1: the Louvre I crossed the Seine on the "Pont .des Artes." My love for history at this time lead me to visit one of the most fa mous spots in France, I refer to the "Hotel des Invalides" where rests the mortal remains of the great Napoleon. Those who have known me as teacher must know that I would linger long at this interesting shrine. The place is not a hotel as the name implies but is a home for old soldiers and a sort of barracks for French regulars. There is also a mu seum in the building. I visited the chapel and lastly the tomb of the great Emperor. A strange emotion fills the heart of a pil gram to this shrine. I passed into the build ing by a long hallway, approaching the tomb under a great dome. Yell ow stained glass window panes shed a mellow light over the sarcoplngus which contains all that remains of the illustrious Bonaparte. Under the dome on a marbie floor is a marble railing surround ing a depression, perhaps fifteen feet in depth and forty feet in circumference. In the center of this depression, perhaps six feet below the ob5erver, is the mahogany casket in which is the dust of the dead. Around this casket yel low marble is arranged in the form of a halo of glory rays shining out from the casket and be yond these around the edge of the enclosure, standing as silent warders of the tomb, are twelve sculptured aAgels, perhaps eight feet in height, each holding a wreath or a palm, seeming in a position to place them on the tomb as a last tribute to the departed warrior; and on the end of the tomb appear Napo leon's last words, "Let me be buried in

OTTERBEIN .JIGJS France among the French people whom I have loved so well. " It is ""onderful the amount of reverance the French people enter tain for Napoleon. They refer to him as '•La Empereur." Before I leave this spot I cannot refrain from recalling the last years of this great warrior. With all his failings he did a great deal for France. Any observing tourist can see even now many, many evidences of the beneficent spirit of Napoleon, of his intere~t in education, government, public improvements, laws, technical schools, and the affairs of $tate. I am reminded, too, of his last humiliation at Waterloo. VVhat a struggle it .nust have cost him to give up all and be carried to St. He lena to die! What emotions he must have ex perienced! Behind him were his works, rend ered to the state as a diplomat and statesman, and his military laurels from Marengo, Eylau, Friedland, Jena, Anerstadt, Austerlitz, Ulm, Wagram, the Pyramids and Leipsic. What a galaxy of stars in the coronet of a single warrior! The lack of moral and religious principle seems to have wrought his final fall. In my histor ical musings, I am carried back to the last days of Napoleon on St. Helena. It is saic.l that he was at that time very sad and lonely. No wonder. His life had been full of excitement and tragedy and toil. His death was not a painful struggle. Silently the Angel of Death came. The veil which separates the frail present from th~ eternal future was lifted, and the spirit of Napoleon Bonaparte, liberated from the vissitudes and cares ol earth, and set free from its prison house of clay, winged its flight upward into the far off, mysterious, deathless forever. Let us pause a moment more at the tomb and then pass out into the busy throbbing world again. From the tomb of N ipoleon I went to the palace and gardens of Luxembourg. The sculpture and painting here has made the palace f¾mous. Diily tourists and artists visit these fine galleries to study or copy the works of m 1sters. The sculpture is beautiful and in cludes some of the finest in the world. Among the fine paintings, I noticed "The Shep-

herdess," by Le Rolle, ''Maiden and Love," by 8)u~uere 1u, also pieces by Dupres, Reni, Ro,a 8)nheur, M )rat and many others. From the galleries we strolled out into the far famed ~ard ~ns surrounding the palace Cascades, flowers, palms, long avenues of foliage, bronze .ind m irble statu iry and lakes form a veritable paradise. I was fortunate in my visit to Notre D.me and the M 1deline. BJth were open and I had an excellent opportunity to visit these well known cathedrals. Paris is well provided with the means of carrying people to diff.!rent parts of the city. O .nnibuses, automobiles, steam street cars, electric car.,;, undergro ·md railway and cabs are numerous, and the fares are but from two to four cents on cars and 'buses while the others are slightly higher. There are also a number of small p:i.ssenger boats which ply up and down the Seine within the city limits, fare one penny, (two cents). I have been interested in comparing Eng land and France. The greatest attraction which E 1gtish and Scotch cities have for tour ists is their historic or classic features. They have, it is true, many beautiful spots, but to the history loving tourist these are seen as secondary. The hills of Scotland, the lakes and fells of Wordsworth, The Bonnie Doon and Silver Avon, are admired not so much for their superior beauty as for the associations which make them dear to us, and for the beauty which Scott and Burns and Wordworth and Shakespeare have helped us to see. There is much in Paris which attracts the lover ot the historic, yet, it is its gayety, beau tiful buildings, charming driveways and people of brilliant parts and fashionable apparel that draw thousands of foreigners within her portals every year. The tourist who journeys, as I did on my second trip, direct from London to Paris has an excellent opportunity to compare these two great c1t1es. Lover of history as I am, I can not decide in favor of Paris. There are indeed great sights to be seen in Paris. The palace

OTTERBEIN .JlGJS and gardens of Luxembourg, the Pantheon, the Pc1lace of the Louvre, the Tribunal of Commerce, the Grand Opera, and the Tro cidero, d 1zzl e the eye with their beauty and m 1gnificence. They arouse in the mind of the lover of history m .r ny remembrances, and fire his im1gination with past significent events and great personages. And yet with all this I turn with undimin ished pleasure to old London with her thous and and one half years of history, and the long array of great men who have done so much to build up -1 -!re.it civiliz 1tion and perpetuate the name of the Anglo-Saxon. The grc1ndeur and beauty of the Madeline of Puis is of a high order, but certainly it can not compare with the St. Pauls of London. Notre D 11ne seems to be awe inspiring, and moves one to a spirit ol profound solemnity; but all this is true to a far greater degree of Westminister Abbey of Londoo. We paid a h1sty visit to Pc1rk l\1onceau, perhaps as lovely a spot as could be found in France, with its long avenues of pompous foliaj?'e and flowers in endless variety and quality, all arranged with an idea to the hi 6 hest possible beauty. And this is but the plain part of the park. There are shady winding avenues, beautiful cascades, and lake; wher.:: Albrn s1Vans glide to and fro in the sunlight, all tending to delight the eye. Yet with all this I remember London, and the gardens of Kensington and Kew. I remember also the gardens of Prince's street, Edin borough, overlooked by the grim old castle and the heights of Calton Hill. The embankments of the Seine are indeed wonderful and full of beauty, but something draws me again to the Albert and Victorian embankments and gardens aiong the Thames. There seems to be something back of all that one sees in London to give it solidity and char acter as well as beauty. No museum, even what I have seen in Paris, Rome and else where, can compare with tlie British Museum of London. The greatest difference between the two cities in favor of France would seem to be in the galleries of art, Those of the Louvre 1

Luxembourg, the TrocadLrO and at Ver sailles it must be conceded, are as fine or finer th an those of London. But still I remember that in London I saw originals from Van Dyck, Ho.;arth, Reynolds, Bonheur, Rubens, Rem brandt, Turner and Raphael. Perhaps I am not lair in this comparison, but I am so impressed. The streets, too, of London and of Paris are very different. The Champs Elysees and Boulevard of Paris fairly glitter with their beauty. The shop windows being so superbly decorated add much to the beauty of the streets; all these and other things I have men tioned make Paris really a radiant city, and, then after I had taken my last walk in the pal ace gardens and gazed for the last time on this city of fashion, of gilded beauty and of moral corruption I turn again and again to dirigy smoky, mysterious, historic and classic old London, not so much because it is outwardly beautiful and more satisfying to the external eye, but for rearnns deeper and of vastly greater significance; because there is a some thing there upon which the intellect and soul may feed and be nourished. So I feel much like asking the question of London, which N:taman, the Syrian, of Bible times asked of the rivers of D.i'llascus, not as he, but in the oppo~ite spirit of truth and right, "Are not the rivers of D.imascus better than all the rivers of Isreael?

NE bright morning in October of the year 1

there appeared in the headlines of a certain j0urnal of the Gem City, in bold ~ype, the significant announcement, "Turbulent Students of Otterbein Suspended for Vandc1li m." Among the unruly list were a few of the stalwart sons of the Miami Valley. The inhabitants of this Garden of Eden sud denly awoke to the fact that the young man19')2,

OTTERBEIN AJGIS

hood, the very pride of the valley, had tasted of the tree of knowledge of good and evil and had experienced a fall. These easy-going, peace-living people stood aghast when they realized the f'normity of the crime and were ready to denounce the infam ous actions of their unworthy progeny. Busi ness men left their desks to discuss the prob able outcome with their gossiping neighbors. Farmers leaving their work undone, h_aste ned to the nearest village to receive the latest news of the outrage. Anxious mothers fearing for their unfortunate sons, sent messages of m ingled love and chastisement. A gloom o'erspread the country shutting out the brightness of the day, and booing ill to the incorrigible reprobates who had brought di sgrace to Old Miami. Even that beautiful st ream, accustomed to move with scarcely a ripple, wore a troubled aspect. The single word •'Vandalism" had caused all the commo tion . Why did they not stop to reason? Was n ~t t he term "Vandalism" bad enough in it self, and would any system of philosophy have helped the matter? Did they comprehend the meaning of the term? Yes, it was self-defin ing to them , and Noah Webster's version would only have added to the disgrace. The wo rld knows t he rest of the story, but this m uch has served to introduce our subject. Should the statement be made that this very spiri.t of V .rndalis m, in its broadest sense, has been the act uating force by which modern civilization has developed, the world mi 6 ht at firs t hesitate to accept it. The expl;;.nation is fo rth coming. Ou r dictionaries would have us understand that Vandalism refers to the practice of destroy ing t hat which is beautiful or artistic. This t he Vandals did in the sacking of Rome. But to the eye of the one who investigates into the causes which underlie the development of our present civilization, that which the Vandals con tributed to humanity, in common with t he ir n0rthern brethren, would have more than effect the destruction of all the works of art which graced the walls of ancient Rome.

Let us take a~ our definition of Vandalism, that meddlesome spirit which leads tribes an d nations and individuals to interfere where they have no legal right, but a right given them by the best interests of humanity. The once glorious but now inactive Rome fell a prey to the courageous, independent, lawless, savage hords of Germany. The ign0rant tribes of Germany fell a prey to the intelligence, art, literature and general culture of Rome. As the mingled colors of the painter repre sents the splendor of the heavens at dawn, so the mingling of these various elements repre. sented the dawning of a glorious civilization, which would be imperfect were it lacking in a single one of these components. Drummon d has written his "Natural Law in the Spiritual World." \,Vhy does some one not write of the " atural Law in the Political World?" The re are demagogues and usurpers, tyrants and des pots, hypocrites and political bosses, men without principle, who work to the detriment of the governed, but through it all the doctrin e of "The Survival of the Fittest" has broug ht "order out of chaos," and by long process o f development the savage man has become civ ilized. Before the descent of the barbarian tribes of the North, Rome had interfered in Grecian pol itics and had combined the government o f Rome with the culture of Athens. "Athens; the Eye of Greece," contributed to the m;, J<ing of Rome the eye of the world. This sam e nation had interfered in Christ's kingdo m across the sea, and from Jerusalem came the germ of the Christian religion. The Rom an people were over-confident. They thought that "When falls the Coliseum, Rome shall fall, and when Rome falls, the world." But not so, for Rome's loss was the world's gai n. The mighty Charlemagne of the middle ages took as his four foundation stones, the cultu re of Athens, the jurisprudence of Rome, t he pure rdigion of the "Holy City," the rugge d endurance and tenacity of his own people, an d herewith built a bridge across the chasm of the dark ages. The influence of Charlemagne was

OTTERBEIN AIGIS uplifting and ennobling, but he liked to inter fere in the affairs of other people. He went so far as to dictate a method of worship to his German brethren across the Rhine. As the sword made possible the sway of the crescent in Mohammedan countries, so, at the sword's point, these people were compelled to kneel at the cross of Christ. We question his method and his right, but we do not ques1ion the re sults to humanity. This mighty empire ~erved its purpose and vanished as a dream. It shared the fate of its illustrious predecessors, but all of it that was good survived and participated in the making of the next higher step in the scale of civil iza· tion. Paris as the successor of Rome was i11 its turn succeeded by London. As the Van dals swept down into the city of the: Tiber, ac companied by the Goths and Franks, Burgun dians and Suevi, so the city of Thames be came the common center of Danes and North men, Poets and Scots, Angles and Saxons. This new city and country w,ts a product of the contributions of Jerus,lem and Athens, Rome and Paris, tog-ether with the unexcelled virtues of our wild forefathers of the North. But strange to say, these very people, to whom the world stands so much indebted, were guilty of many crimes. These invading hosts came masked and with out legal right. They destroyed and defaced, robbed and plundered with all the fury of savage demons. In the face of this awful tale we look back and exclaim, ''It was all for the glory of the human race." Engiand reached the supremacy and she maintained it on many bloody battlefields. Read the later history of Europe and you might imagine yourself watch ing the quarrels of some big children. Each one has proved herself a "meddlesome Matty," ready to peep in the teakettle did the others turn their backs for a minute. When old wo.rld politics would no longer satisfy, the new world afforded a good field for prying dispositions. As it has been expressed, "Westward the star of empire takes its course." The red men of the forest a woke one

morning to find themselves outcasts from their "happy hunting grounds." The time-horn;ired bow and arrow vanished before the leaden The "Home, bullets of avaricious visitors. Sweet Home" of the Indian became the fight ing ground of Europe and to-day an occas sional war whoop in the far west is all that is left to remi ,; d us of the aborigines of America. This hardly seems morally right and we are certain that there was nothing legal about it. But just as sure as it is right for civilization to advance, just so sure is it right that that which blocks its pregress should be cleared away. We, to day, boast of the highest type of civilz1tion where four hundred years ago Indian savagery predominated. We have inherited that same cfficious spirit which characterized our ancest0rs across the ocean, and we u5e it to guard the best interests of the human race. The "Monroe Doctrine" does not arise from constitutional authority nor international agree ment, but nevertheless the Old World recog nizes our right of interference, and leaves the welfare of the American countries under our protection. \Ve had no legal right to rescue the Gem of the Antilles from the throes of Spanish tyranny, nor send an invading fleet into Manilla Bay, but our sympathy for a downtrodden people demanded that we strike a blow in defense of our distressed neighbor. Devastation followed in the wake of war. Fleets were sent to the bottom of the sea, works of art and beauty were demolished, brave men tell before the lead and steel of opposing forces, but no one denies that the establishment of the principles for which we fought has been for the benefit of mankind. Then when a man or nation is accused of Vandalism in the narrow sense of destroying the beautiful and artistic, shall we not examine farther to see if he deserves the credit of being termed a Vandal in the broader sense? Van dalism with this extended meaning did not originate with the Vandals in the sacking of Rome, but back in the Garden of Eden when man's curiosity won a victory over his better judgment, and while in that case it was the

OTTERBEIN ~GIS

cause of man's fall, with us it is a redeeming factor in the world's civilization.

"JI £ol1¢g¢ man tn Doubt" A REVIEW GIVE ' BY PROFESSOR WILLIAM

Above we present the portrait of i\Ir. B. E. Parker, principal of the Business department. Mr. Parker came to Otterb .: in with a thor ough training and practical experience to aid him in his work. He graduated from the North American. onnal Univer ity, Fostoria, Ohio, in 1892. During 1893 94, he taught in the same school, and i1.1 1893 became its presi dent. He was elected principal of the Com mercial department of Academy in 1897, re signing this position three years later to be come principal of the Business department of OHerbein University. On arriving here l\Ir. Parker entered into his work with a vigorous spirit, and under his guidance the Business department has steadily prsspered and advanced, until this year it be came necessary to secure larger quarters. Mr. Parker is known throughout the university as a ''hustler" and well does he merit this title. He is a man of honesty and integrity, and has the confidence and esteem of all his students and graduates. THE .tEGI would urge any one contemplating a bu iness course to correspond .... with him.

ZUCK

HIS is the title of a little vo ume by Mr. Nolan Rice Best, of the class of '92, and now on the ed itorial staff of the In terior, Chicago. It is publi hen by The vVest minister Press Philadelphia, and in all its me chanical features, the bock is a perfect little gem. The reading of these six chapters on a sub j ct of such practical importance to college students has been a real pleasure. It has Jong been recognized as one of the dangers of col lege life that such problems do arise, but with th e wid !r diffu,ion of knowledge that is so thoroughly clnr..icteristic of our day, these difficulties come alike almost to all. I◄ or this reason it is hoped, that Mr. Best"s book will fall into the hands not only of college sti.:• dents, for whom it was especially written, but of that large multitude who at times must grope their way through intellectual and spir itual doubt. The second chapter is partictularly sugges tive to students, because with nice discrimina tion th« author makes clear the difference be tween "the innocent and the noxious doubt." He says, "The involuntary question, springing unconjured out of the oul's own struggle and waiting only for its answer, is never wrong. But the questioning that is invited and cher ished encouraged and magnified, gloried in and clung to-this is sin and the seed of the whirl \\ind." Then are mentioned scme of the pit falls into which the college man is in danger of falling; the belief that a new doctrine is more likely to be true than an old one; the conclu sion that the belief of the few is more nearly correct than the belief of the many ; a habit of doubt or the ability to dispute is to be taken as a mark of superior intelligence; the thought that to be well informed and perfectly candid, the student must read all the infidel literature available; and last but perhaps worst of all, the presumption that to escape responsibility, all he

OTTERBEIN AiGJS has to do is to evade belief altogether. l\Iany times does the teacher see in his classes those who are steering their course toward one or more of these alluring snares. The discussion of them here is manly and honest, and the reme-· dies proposed in this and the subse.quent chap ters must be helpful to those who will use them. Large emphasis is placed by the author on the doubter doing wlzat lte kuows to be ,£git!; instead of worrying and halting because of the things we cannot know, the one and only safe guard is to do the things we do know. The book is a great credit to its author and an honor to his alma mate,. It will do much good in helping over some of the hard places in his Christian experience the growing and inquiring young man.

The spiritual life of many was greatly strengthened and some were led to important decisions. The twilight and even ing gospel meetings were especially helpful. Besides the good, pointed talks which I\Iiss Spencer gave in the meetings, she spent much of her time in private conferences with the girls.
