THE OLD CHAPEL
Reminiscent College History STOOD, a stranger. in December, 1889. on the desolate college site viewing its command of scenic beauty. A Fart of the south wing was all that existed of the college over which 1 was to preside. Should a vital f-orce arise there creative of a new and richer life for the toiling wealth producers of Utah? And should that force run in the narrow line conceived for it by the public i-the lill::' of Agriculture? I was of the soil and fascinated with the philosophical problems agriculture. I belie\'ed that the highest service that I could render the state would consist in the organization of courses of instruction in which agriculture should be the central pillar for training to the highest efficiency the citizen farmer. Yet only the central figure for dficienc),. In all the industrie s each adds to the general wealth and ,-nch general efficiency should be taught in an industrial school. ()f

PRES. SANBORN
It became the policy of the management to enter the entire unoccupied field of industrial education of Utah, this field, of course, embraci ng domestic science and arts, commerce and mechanic arts.
The modest $48,000 required to breathe into this fraJ11e work the breath of life was so far beyond public expectation that it was legarded as a great extravagance for a poor territory with a University on its hands. It was an able legislature and when, member by member, the purposes of the College and it s relations' to the future of the State, had been explained the appr?priation was, as memory has it, llnanimou sly passed. 10
This appropriation \Vas supplemented by the $lj,OOO from the Government plus some back funds not drawn. These resources enabled the founding of five industrial courses aside from the ÂŁnglish and the Preparatory Departments. \\'e had to deal only with the first two years of each course. Citizens were freely shown through the shops and Domestic Science rooms, and over the farm, and the purposes of each and of the whole were explained to them, so that the public become familiar with the work anc! aims of the institution. The appropriation of 1892 was secured by effort. The unexpected growth and magnitude of the college and the field of its work ' hac! aroused or)position among a few educators. anc! with others the appropriation seemed out of proportion to the wealth of the State. The purpose of merging the University and the College was being 10stered in certain quarters. This had to be met. The idea survived TO embarrass the appropriations of 1894 and later to plague the College, as I am told. The precious dollars received were carefully expended. The first President's duties were manifold. He was building agent for all new construction work and had the organizing work in general. He also had the laying out of the hundreds of plat trials, and research work in animal nutrition to look after. The data for the monthly experiment station bulletins was handled and written up i'n the main by him. The first faculty was made up of specialists drawn from all sections of the country anc! was quite cosmopolitan. It was a faculty ot great industry, of efficiency, and of cordial relations. It is scattered as widely as its origin, yet each living. The entrance examinations reached down to the level of the common schools for the Preparatory Department and were low for the College. In a democratic way it extended a helping hand, justified in the condition of the public schools of that day, serving as it was believed, the State better by such a policy than by one of exclusi veness. Partisan and sectarian bias were unknown factors 111 the college life. 1 beg the further space to pay a just tribute to three parties. The College was blessed by an able conscientious and broad-minded hoard of trustees maintaining internal harmony in its membership. It was considerate of the College management. The State is under ohligations to it. The public gave the management its confidence and support, most essential aids and won my high and abiding esteem. TIut memory dwells fondest on the frank, kindly loyal young men and women, (shall I offend by saying especially the latter), of the 11
student body, not one of who m ever maliciously gave me trouble. They joined zealously in the e ff 0 r t to increase the rapidly growing number that enrolled as students. Very cordially you rs, J. V\l. SAN CORK. 'vVe were unable to secure a history of the school during the two years that President Paul was at the head of the institution. Let it suffice to say that the College pursued the same general policy as durinÂŁ; the administration of its first President and grew steadily in popularity. gTadually making its purpose clear to the taxpayers of the State. President Tanner wrote as follows: PRES. J. H. PAUL
The Agricultural Colleg'e in its growth represents those changes which have come over the industrial life of Utah within the past two decades. The young men of that institution today can hardly realize the attitude which the people at large had toward the College, and the attitude they maintained for "rme veal-S after it was found~d. on questions of education. The College I{as responded to the growing needs of the people, and in turn has, perhaps. been the most potent factor in awakening the people of the State to the growing importance of an agricultural and an industrial training. The early history of the College reJ)resents a sort of missionary work which the presidents of the institution felt it incumbent upon them to undertake. It is only within the last few years that the people have come to appreciate the 'real functions of such an institution. An agricultural and industrial education was thought by most people to be impractical. There was a strong undercurrent of thought that education was something separate and apart from the industrial life of the people. An educated man in overalls was something inconceivable. ,Vhen I entered the institution as its third President, I made the acquaintance of its students, learned something of their ideals fro111 the course of studies which they 'se lected ,' I discovered that the 12
trend of education was away frol11 agriculture and mechanic arts. I set out to co rrect the mistaken idea of young men and women who failed to appreciate the true meaning of the school. In my efforts to persuade them to change their course of studies, I discovered that ¡ these young people were directed chiefly by the educational sentiments of their parents. In some instances the parents wrote letters protesting strongly against the changes I recommended. I soon found that my efforts were needed more outside of the school than they were inside, and ¡ I therefore began a sort of missionary propaganda looking to the conversion of the people at large from the old to the modern needs of education. The school, I clearly saw, could not accomplish its mission until some radical changes were brought about in the educational ideals of the homes. An increased attendance might be secured, but an increase in the number of students would not accomplish what the college was founded to do unless the ",wdents were in harmony with its mission. During my administration of the College, I aimed to visit all the leading communities of Utah and southern Idaho at least once every year. The object of my visit was to enlighten the people at large upon the meaning and mission of that education for which an agricultural college stands. It was hoped that in the homes of the people the young men and the young women of the State would feel the 1nspiration of that new industrial life that was dawning upon the people of the \1\' est. I t was not so easy to reach the agricultural side of college life and bring home to the people the importance and improvement of the farm. It was easier for them to comprehend mechanic arts and their place in our new industrial life. }Iy efforts to advance mechanical education found a more responsi ve sen ti m en t in the mincls of the people and I felt that somehow or other an education ;[1 11' e:: hanics in the .:\gricul1 ' ;'al Co lleg-e would SOO:1 PRES.

lead to a more general appreciation of the agricultural education of that institution. I was sometimes accused of partiality for the mechanic arts. At that time it was not so much a question of a preference for anyone training which the institution gave as it was a ques¡¡ tion of bringing students directly and the parents indirectly within the sphere of that institution's influence. vVhether those early efforts to create the proper educational appreciation in the home were really successful must be left to the jUdgment of perhaps a new generation. It is gratifying, however, to witness the increasing growth of sentiment in favor of the training which the Agricultural College affords. Very respectfully, J. 1\1. TANNER. 14
"'c
were also unsuccessful in securing a hi~tory of President Kerr's administration. It was during that period that the school passed through the darkest days of its existence. Owing to the untiring work of its President the crisis \yas successfully passed.
It was also during President Kerr's administration that the "shops" were burned down and some little inCOI1\'enience thus caused the students of the institution. 'Cpon the leaving of President Kerr for Oregon, the present administration was inaugurated with Presiuent "'ic1tsoe at the helm. It has been during President \\'idtsoe 's administration that the College has dOlle its most successful work. It bas finally found its proper place in the hearts of Gtah citizen and receiYeS the aid it merits. It bas remained for President \\ ' idtsoe to inaugurate the "Farl11ers' Roundup" and the "Housekeepers' Conference," t\\¡o Yen' successful institutions that reach the older generation. The registration has also increased wonderfully and this year it passed the one thousand mark.

The U A. C. Alumni Association The Past The organization of the degree graduates of the U. A. C. into an alumni association was perfected at the College during Commencement week, in June, 1899, and was largely due to the direct 1l1itiative of :-lrs. Anna Beers Petty, '98, and Charles Jensen, '97. The Constitution and By-Laws were drawn up by John Stewart, '97, aided by John T. Caine, '94, and Lewis A. :-lerrill, '9j. The last named had the honor of being elected the first president of the association. Since his time, the office has been filled by the following members, in the order named: John T. Caine, Jr., '94; \V. H. Homer, Jr., '00; Rose l:"Iomer, '00; Wm . Peterson, '99: \ V. Jenson, '00; Robert Stewart, '02; C. \V. Porter, '0.1; J. C. lJ ogenson, '99, and C. Larsen, '96. For a number of years the association limited its activities to the annaul banquet and ball, given regularly at the College on Commence¡ ment Day. The old Gymnasium has beheld many a joyous C0111mencement ball, extending far into the early morning hours. During- the last few seasons, the alumni haye gradually widened the scope of their influence. They have grown stronger, numerically and ot herwise, and have felt equal to the task of giving an annual ball. of entertaining the Senio rs each year, of holding an informal reception after the annual business meeting, and of publishing a history of the associatio n and of each individual member, the first volume of theC". A. C. Gradl1ate. The association , which was organized with forty-four members, in 1899, now numbers exactly 177 living members. 20
ThePresenl The Alumni Association of the C". A. C. has eyery reason to pride itself upon the uniform success of its members.

There is ann ualIy a little group of which the Association is especially proud: the young m en and women who have sufficient ambition and con f ide n c e in themselves to continue their scholastic training at o t 11 e r schools. During 1 909-10 there were ten alumni studying at various universities. several of them working for their Ph. D . A s representative of this group might be mentioned E. G. Peterson, '04, and E.

The Future The _-\lumni Association has for its primary aim the furthering of the welfare of the :\gricultural College of Gtah, and e\'cry act or actiyity which does this is the legitimate work of the Society, The .~\lumni hope, in the near future, to establish a Loan Fund for needy students who are attending the U . A. c.; to organi2.e and maintain an Alumni Lecture Course, which shall be free to r\ . C. students, and tG found some scholarships at the C. A . C. But just at present, ev ery effort is concentrated on thc Gymnasium Fund. That the School needs such a building, c\'eryone knows. and now that the .-\lumni have taken up the work of securing it. all feel confident that the project will soon becomc a reality.

The Seniors T is something to be the largest class to be graduated from the C. A. C. That is one of the distinguishing features of the class of 1910. Some of our member:; entered the school as Preps. and ha,' e served seven long years for their sheepskins. In this group we find A. E. Aldous-and what a queer bald headed young· ster he was even then; A . .8. Ballantyne, who stuck like a leech to his A n Cs from the start; the Stewart brothers, with their hair done up in curl-papers: Eph Burton. whose voice ever soft and low, was then a thin childish treble that piped and whistled in its sounds: Jo Grue-what a stodgy little cherub Joe was; Erastus Peterson, announcing his intention of becoming an "Agriculturalist" (,farmer, he calls it now) : F. A. \\' yatt, full of the fun and frolic that seven years of books hasn't done away with: Ray Curtis, the faithful: Dean Peterson, the chap who gets there. and '·l3ill"Peterson. announcing hi,; intention of going into print: \\ ' . C. Riter, who was just shedding hi:, milk teeth and still wearing knickerbockers. :\t the beginning of the Sophomore year O. G. Lloyd, \ \ ' . B. Oldham and ' -. A. Sadler joined the class, bringing with them, respectively, diplomacy. dignity and dramatic talent (!). In our Junior year Lloyd's diplomacy had won general recog nition and he wa elected President of the tudent Body Association. Our ranks were considerably increased during our Junior year by th~ addition of several new members. In this galaxy of brilliant stars we count our Pleiades: Helen Bartlett, Ethel Bennion, Veda Dixon, Amelia ?lIanning, Clara Parrish. Susannah Perry and \Vinifred Smith. The lesser lights were R. C. Allred. C. F . Hirst, A. ?II. :'IlcOmie anJ Aaron Rasmussen. Our numbers were further augmented in the fall of 1909 by the following members: C. L. Anderson, C. E. Barrett. :\sa Bullen, Florence Dudley. Odessia l-Iendricks . Alice Kewley, O. H. Lee, Amy Leigh, Inez and La\·ina i\[aughalll, A.. H. axer, ::\ora ~ome and E. H. \\'atson, making in all thirty-five members in the class of 1910. A goodly number truly, and yet it's the quality, rathel' than the quantity , that makes us proud of ourselves. In all the activities of the school where leadership has been required, naturally the Seniors have led-athletics. dnt matics. debates. "Student Life" 28
and "Student Body" owe no small measure of their success to the capable and illustrious leadership and assistan'ce of the Seniors. \Ve made a good beginning and .a better ending. Dut you haven't heard the last or the best of us yet, and wont until we're alumni and then you'll hear what you will hear, so keep your ears open for the report of our fame that is to be! So much by way of a forecast for the future . but we must ask you also to take a look back with us into the past. As Juniors we established two customs in the school whose significance can hardly be estimated. The "Buzzer" was our idea. \V. C. Riter first got the "'bee" in his bonnet, and the class elected Orson Lloyd and .( Bill" Peterson to prepare the hive. How successfully they did it. with the lJelp of the whole class of course. we only need refer you to the original "Buzzer" to determine. The "Junior Prom" was also our idea. A laudable social initiatiYe that we are justly proud of. But of course the "'Buzzer" was our Big Idea, which we bequeath with our blessing to all junior classes of the institution from now until the end of things mundane . \\,ith this as our final word we leave you in the full consciousness of haying acquitted ourselves nobly, and the knowledge that "AWs well that ends well."

SENIORS AND FACULTY ON CLEAN-UP DAY

The Juniors Which is the liveliest and most progressive class in school? There is only one answer to the question and that is a self-evident one. The Junior Class of course, and the reasons for it are so obvious too. The Freshman's energy is all eaten up in playing tricks on the sophomore, and in getting broken to the harness. The sophomore is conserving all the energy that he doesn't use up in foiling the attacks of the freshman, for his junior year, and the senior, having exhausted all of his energy in his junior year. is resting up for commencement and trying to look wise against the day when his B. S. is handed out to him. So you see the junior is the only one whose energy is left intact for the present and that's why he's the man of the hour-the man who does things. Just run your eye over the list of our achievements and see if you do not agree with us . In Athletics junior men made up one-half of the football team; three out of the fiye basketball players were juniors. The manager of the baseball nine and two of the men are juniors. And we have eight of our men on the track team. In Drill, we are justly proud of the only major. \ V e have one captain ou t of the three and four lieu tenants, besides some of the under officers. In the Inter-Collegiate Debate four out of the se\'en regulars and one of the two "subs" were juniors. Six of the nine members composing the staff of Student Life belong to the Eleyen bunch. Of the officers of the Student Body Organization we claim the Vice-president, two members of the executive committee and the standard-bearer. In dramatics besides the "leading lady," we had three other "climbers" and in the opera four of the principal parts were vociferously held by juniors. And as a fitting climax to this record, we are the busy bees that get the "Buzzer" out. Doesn't this sound like going some? \Ve could go on indefinitely telling you how we won the class championship in basketball and won out over the seniors in football and debates, but we don't like to flaunt our triumphs in the faces of the defeated. Just take for 46
o-ranted that the junior come
out on top eyery time, as he did ill
~hat little encounter with the class of 1910 in which hempen rope, silken crayats and senior anathemas were as mixed as a freshman metaphor. In doing the social stunt the juniors have fallen behind no one. The junior prom coming as it does late in the season is the climax of the social doings of the various classes. Physically, mentally,
ocially
the
JUl110r class
IS
an A No, 1
bunch. \\' e don't make our record on either, bluffing or grinding. \\ 'e strike a happy mediuJ11 between work and play and keep a-goin' and a-goin' until our fame has reached such gigantic proportions that it can't be contained within the pages of a book-even of the "Buzzer.." The pen is inadequate to express us, so perhaps we'd better stop right here.

Sophomores ES, we admit the harsh impeachment. ,Ve were Freshmen last year, but we've put aside our rubber rings and rattles, given up our liquid diet and with all the assurance of Sophomores are helping ourselves generously to college menu of solids, and growing fat and lusty therefrom. No more :vIellin's Food for us. It was a bit hard at first to subdue our skipping spirits, so when the Freshies challenged us to a try-out on the gridiron, we accepted with much alacrity and leveled off the "grid" in fine shape with the hilsky bodies of our challengers. ,Ve literally as well as figuratively '(po unded the ground with them." But there-we mustn't brag-an old Freshman trick that we haven 't quite shaken off yet.
You can't down the chlorophyll bunch, however, and as soon as the ir football bruises were well healed, they were eager to close with 'dS in basket ball. Their joy over their victory was a touching sight, and we were glad that our generosity had prompted us to leav e them masters of the field. ,Yith a benign and gracious countenance worthy of a senior class we have looked upon the gambols of the "green"have let them have their fun at our expense now and then, realizing that the youngsters must be humored. As a class we're the steady going kind-not pyrotechnics, but plodding is our long suit. The kind that gets there, you know. After the gyrations of our freshman year we enter upon our sophomore year with a long, swinging, steady gait, make ourselves kno\Vn as juniors and come out ahead as seniors every time-neither winded nor maimed, but fit physically and mentally for the tussle on the gridiron of the world. ,Ve have, however, distinguished ourselves a bit even in our sophomore year in a way new to the under cla sman. It has remaineJ heretofore for the seniors to present their Alma Mater with some memento of their regard, that would be of material or artistic benefit to the school, through the years to follow. The Sophomore class of 1910 was the first of the lower under-graduate classes to take the initiative in the matter of presenting the schoo l with something that would add to her working equipment and be of service-the creation of a score board upon the athletic field was the distinguishing, if not distinguished, thing we did. 74
It has been our good fortune to ha\'e a strong class organization, with efficient officers, so we have "hung" and "pulled " together at all times, \Ve challenge anyone, even the Editor of Student Life, to show a stronger college spirit, 'vVe have taken active interest in all the leading college activities and have had good lively representatives in athletics, drill, dramatics and debates, \\' e have also lifted up our yoices in the choir and opera and in rooting for Alma Mater at all ::imes, all places and all seasons,

Freshmen RESHi\IE~!
Yes, that's what we are, and proud of it. The word "Freshman" isn't synonymous with "green" as the upper classmen, particularly the sophomores (Upper Classmen, forsooth!) seem to think . The word "Freshman" literally means a man fresh in his resolve to get all there is to be got out of the four years of college life. It also signifies that he is fresh (new) to the ways of the college, and it further signifies that he is fresh (in trim) to catch on to the ways of the college student as speedily as may be. There isn't anything slow about the Freshman-he's as pert and chipper as a bluejay-but that isn't any reason why he should be hailed as a jay bird by the sophs and juniors. Of course the senior has acquired too much dignity to refer to any of his college confreres in such an undignified and slighting manner. From the day of his entrance the Freshman with his freshness encircling him like a halo, setting him apart from the stale and stereotyped student of longer standing looks about him, resolving now that he has come, to see and to conquer, so he takes for his motto. one of Caesar's Commentaries, the briefest and most conclusive of commentaries the famous "Veni, Vidi, Vici" which he at once renders rather freely into Fresh¡ man Dog Latin as follows: "vVe know, we do, we key," translated thus: We know that we don't know (which is more than the Sophs do!) We do-the Sophs every time and then some. We key the whole "classy" bunch, sophs, juniors, seniors and faculty, up to the key of G, whenever we get the chance, and then run 'em down a minor scale into B flat. It's true that we didn't do the Sopbs in football. \1V e thought they needed a little encouragement to begin the year on, but we did 'em brown in basketball, did 'em black and blue, too, for that matter, but owing to the fact that they had once been Freshmen, they knew how to take their defeat. Took it a great deal better than they did the disappearance of their coats and hats at the "candy-stretch " at St. John's House that first chilly night in October. Took it almost as stoically as they did their failure to break up the "Freshie" Hallowe'en party in the College Gym. after standing round in the cold for three or four hours. 80
Emboldened by his victories oyer the Sophs, what does the raw and untutored "Fresh ie" do next? He aspires to win out over the juniors and seniors in something, if it's only in the laying of paving stones, 'ViII you hear the story of his success? vVhen the cement pavement was being laid in front of College Hill last fall, the juniors and seniors bought the right from the contractors to have their numerals written in the pavement at the south gate entrance. Sounds well, doesn't it? The night the cel11ent was laid at the wee sma' hours five chosen and heroic "Freshies" embedded in the pavement right in between the '10 and '11 a beautiful little block of marble bearing the magic number '13! You'd better believe there was a gnashing of teeth and tearing of hair when the sand was swept off and the "uppers" saw '13 sitting cheek by jowl, so to speak, alongside '10 and '11. The Freshies ended the year as they began it, conceding ;-.. yictory to the Sophs-that of the debate-generosity is one of ou,' earmarks! 'Vhat some of the "uppers" call "push" we call "aspiration." To get the most out of everything and give the most to everything, that's been our attitude. So that's why we've "pushed" or "aspired" toward athletics, dramatics, debates and all the other Student Body Actiyities. The only thing we've kept out of his been journalism, not being as pointed at the pencil tip as we are at other tips, but the "Buzzer" caught us at last and here we are in print-we sort of like it, hope you do too-just as fresh as we are painted, don't you think? and then some!

Preps. FOR:\fIDAHLE body indeed these Preps-marching single file they would reach from the North to the South end of the valley. In serried ranks they form a compact mass upon the campus, that nothing short of the lieutenant's voice can put to rout. Only a fractional part of them can get into the armory and during the ",inter months they drill in relays. From Dan to Beersheba they come to us-the preps, our "awkward squad." But what should we do without them? The general scheme of things would be all awry were there no preps to stumble oyer in the hallways or on the tairs, or to bump into in the library and laboratories. \Vhat would our chapel speakers do without the "gallery"' to express by well-timed or ill-timed applause its appreciatIon of their wise saws and modern instances? \ iV hat would there be for the seniors to impress, the juniors to aston ish, the sophomores to inform. and the freshmen to ignore. if the preps were no longer with us? And the faculty mem bers? \Vould they be earning their salaries without this gentle nursling to cherish? Could Student Body thri"e without the fees of the preps, or Student Life without the material he supplies for the jokology department. As a rooter he is invaluable, also as a "campus cleaner." He is Johnny-on-the-spot every time with his "rah" or his rake. A nice, quiet well-behaved youngster, who takes his shopwork. seriously and thinks that "books ain't half bad." Timber a seasoningquarter-sawed oak in his junior or senior year. In class organization, amusements and contests the preps have shown their mettle and made good. "Mr. Bob," the play they put on was a credit to them and would have been, to any high school, and we are justly proud of them. Though we may not always approve of the color of his tie or socks, we don't pass him up for that, so here's our invitation to stay on and peg away and win the goal of his desire -the fresh man class!

Agronomy \V A Y back in the beginning of time, before man came upon thi earth, during the long ages when our coal beds. were forming and again during the untold years when the great ice sheet covering Korth America, gouged out our great lakes during those millions of years vegetation flourished and died, plant families evolved and became extinct; the periods during which our earth experienced its most luxuriant growth of vegetation passed-but all was waste, sad as it sounds, there was no system. But with the coming of man came method. \Vhen God placed Adam upon the earth, and 'tis a sad thing, Moses forgot to record it in Genesis; he said unto him "Verily, verily, I say unto you, Adam , first born of earth's children I am placing you upon the earth, and it is a new earth just created, in good condition and I want you to take good care of it. I am placing you upon this earth with no heritage except the knowledge of Agronomy. Go and make the earth blossom as a rose." Adam went. Later he received a wife, his two possessions then being a wife and Agronomy. Later children came, but Agronomy held first place in Adam's heart. Adam's entire success in life he attributed to his knowledge of Agronomy. During the years that followed Adam's eviction from Eden he made great progress in the study of the earth's. cultivation, until at his death he had a well developed science. But his successors did not see the great opportunity in store for them. They did not carryon the work where Adam left it. They had no ambition to become professors of Agriculture in a land grant college and so they turned their minds to other less intellectual pursuits, such as astronomy. 92
And so the knowledge of Agronomy died out and remained dead until in our day a babe came upon the earth in another garden of Eden-Cache Junction. From the first he was a dirty child and as ' he grew he showed an interest in things pertaining to the soil. It soon became evident that his chosen line was Agronomy. It is due to Prof. Hogenson that the world owes its present knowledge of the science that made Adam famous.

Animal Husbandry HE Animal Husbandry Der;artment of the G. -0. c. was organized in the year 1892 by Hon. J. 'vV. Sanborn, at that time one of the best authorities in the country on live stock. Among the more importallt works of the institution was the building of what is now the Horse Barn, but was then used for hor es, cattle and sheep, and the purchasing of pure bred stock of various kinds,-Shorthorns, Jerseys and Aberdeell-Angus cattle: Shropshire sheep, and Berkshire pigs. In the year 1893 F. 13. Linfield became Professor of Animal Husbandry, and Dairying. Tuberculosis crept into the herd during the early nineties and wiped out almost the entire herd. But this did not discourage the Profe Sal', for he at once restocked with pure bred Jersey, Hereford, Shorthorn, Holstein, and Guernsey cattle: and Tamworth, Yorkshire, and Poland China hogs. Governor Sparks of -:\ evada made the U. A. C. a present of a pair of Persian sheep and a Shropshire ram. Another event worthy of note, which took place in Prof. Linfielc1's reign, was the building of the cattle, sheep, and hog barns. Professor R. 'V. Clark succeeded Prof. Linfield in 190-1-. Again the progress of the department was greatly checked by the ravages Df Tuberculosis from which it did not recover until after 1906. 94
The progress of the department has been truly great since the vear 1906, when Prof. Caine III took charge. Hereford's from Spark's i1erd, Shorthorns from Seeley's, Jerseys from Island of Jersey, Percheron's from France, Cotswolds from Allen's flock, Hampshires and Lincolns direct from England, have all been added since that date. A commodioLlS stock judging pavilion has also made its appearance. Possessing every breed of animals that is well adapted to the conditions of Utah, there is every reason to believe that this department will make rapid progress in the future under the great "Herd Header," Prof. John T. Caine III, D. S. (:'1. S. A.).

BACTERIOLOGY ¡ ACTERIOLOGY may be defined as a study of little things by big things, as only the advanced students in Domestic Science and Agriculture are considered to have eyes sufficiently keen sighted to detect the 111finitesimal invisibilities that the microscopes in the Bacteriology Lab. make visible. Eminently practical, too, is this "straining at the gnat" with the optic nerve on the qui vive. Mr. Agriculture is thereby trained to detect a case of bovine tuberculosis across a ten acre pasture, and Miss Domestic Science to tell by the sound of the boiling tea kettle whether or not the water contains the germs of typhoid. vVith the efficient training received by our students in this department, it will only be a matter of time until the germs of Germany, the parasites of Paris and the microbes of J reland, that are hrought to this land of the free by the thousands annually, will be dt'stroyed in mid-ocean by an antiseptic spray from an automatic-aeroplanic sprinkler, both the spray and the sprinkler to be inventions of t~. A. C. cerebrums. Qualified to detect and destroy at sight any bacterium from that of bubonic plague to that of spring fever, Mr. Agriculture and Miss Domestic Science will do much to make the p!~.net a fit dwelling place for the graduates of U. A. C.
Botany HE uses of Botany are many and varied. The student studying it can learn the names of the flowers and what they mean in the beautiful language of love and talk to his sweetheart, or he can learn to tell at glance whether a certain plant will poison his pet heifer. He can gather flowers for his Herbarium, presumably, but in reality to walk with some feminine member of the class, or he can tell a pottato vine 96
from a pig weed. He can impress his father with the wonderfl11 learning he is acquiring at college, but the use of the scientific names of plants he learns or he can tell whether his morning coffee has chicory in it or not. In short the student studying this flowery subject is diverted in a variety of ways, which fact accounts for its impOl¡tant position in school curriculum.
HE U. r\. C. Creamery produces in the neighborhood of 100 pounds of delicious golden butter every weekday in the year,-a fact which few e\"en of the students realize. The milk is hauled daily from farms in the yicinity and a large part of it comes from the College herd of Jerseys, Holstein and Guernseys. The dairy is model in its management and equipment. and the products, both butter and cheese, haye secured a high reputation and sell at a premium on the Salt Lake and Logan markets. Anyone who now enters the Dairy is astonished and puzzled by the multitude of churns, yats, separators, butter-workers and testing lIlachines. Time was, however, when the Department boasted but a ~il1gle churn, a single separator, the l11inimul11 quota of pails and vats, <.nd one Babcock tester. This was in the days of 1893, when Prof F. B. Linfield, a genial Canadian, now director of the :\fontana Experi97
ment Station at Dozeman, came to Utah to take charge of the work in Dairying. During his ten year's reign hundreds of students took the courses and many a one remembers the sweetness of the fresh curds and the rich Aa\'or of surreptitious draughts of cream fresh irom the separator spout. Several of Professor's Linfield's students uecame managers and owners of creameries throughout the State. In fact, much of the credit for the present Aourishing condition of the Dairy industry in l:tah is due to Professor Linfield's untiring efforts among the people and his able work at the College. Since his resignation, in 1903, the work has been in charge, successively of ::VIr. J. A. Crockett of Logan, P rof. R. 'v\'. Clark of Alabama, Prof. C. Larson of Iowa, and Prof. T. E. ,Voodward, our present Dairyman, under whose direction the work has increased in scope. Next year the subject will be required and a great many more stucients will be enrolled.
HE young man was just registering. "You should take Entomology" he . was told . "Entomology! ,Vhat is that the study oP" "Why it tells all about bugs." "Bugs! Huh! ,Vhat do I want to know about bugs -: X 0 thank you. None of that in mine. But the young man little knew what he. was doing. Little did he know the future pleasure he was foregOIng 111 that scornful answer. He did not know the exquisite pleasure to be gained from turning' to a friend who has just had a gnat fly into his eye and saying "That's a Diptera you has in your optic." The satisfaction from knowing that the fly in his morning milk is a musco. That the mosquitto that just stung' him was a culicidae. All of these pleasures he has foregone fore\'er and the department of Entomology has lost a student. 98
Horticulture ~~.~~~l ORTICULTURE, up to the
present time has been somewhat neglected. but it is now making rapid strides, due to the great demand for trained men In this profess ion. The first step towards the complete segregation of Horticulture and Botany was made this year. Eight long courses are being offered besides several short ones. which gives the student a thorough. practical and technical knowledge of fruit growing. The \\'ork co\'ers all the important phases of Horticulture, dealing with the fruits best adapted to our tate. their propagation, cultivation, harve ting and marketing. The aim of the department is to fit and train men to take up this :mportant work and develop its resources. solving the many problem s met with in this section. Fruit growing is fast becoming one of the leading industries of our state. Just within recent years have people awakened to the fact that o ur climate and soil can not be excelled anywhere for this purpose. L'tah fruit always ranks high: out of twenty-one National F ruit Exhibits of recent year fifteen of the fil'st prizes were awarded to Ctah. This is encouraging to all who desire to follow this splendid line of work. 99
Irrigation and Drainage OXGRESS has recently enacted a reclamation law whereby for the first time in the history of our country provision has been made for the systematic construction, on a large scale, of public works other than those for river and harbor improvement . Provis ion has been made by which about $2,500,000 will annually accrue in the treasury to the credit of the Secre· tary of the Interior for the construction of works for the irrigating of lands of the arid regions under the supervision of the director of the Cnited States Geological Survey. r\lready a number of important projects have ach'anced to a position where con truction has already begun. The magnitude of this work will be evident when it is remembered that in the last ten years over $30,000,000 has been appropriated for this work. \Vithin the last year about 200 engineers, young and old, have found positions in this part of the government sen·ice. The importance to the profession, therefore, has made it imperative that the great schools of the CQuntry give instruction in Irrigation Engineering. This department of the Agricultural College, therefore . is and must remain one of the strong features of its curriculum. The cry· ing need of this State as well as the entire \Vest for some time to come will be for the irrigation engineer, and nowhere in the State can he be trained so thoroughly and practically as at the Utah AgricuJ· ttl ra I College.

Poultry --_!'IS
a hen recently remarkerl ","Vhat chance is there for us chickens. anyhow' \ iVith egg plants to produce eggs and incubators to hatch them, we have no encouragement whatsoever." But Prof. Turpin has stopped the production of eggs by egg plants and the hens are all becoming society belles. and hence do not stay at hOllle to hatch eggs even if n eeded. so the hen is still an esteemed part of our agricultural societ.\¡ and she annually nets us great wealth, which further endears her to us. Since 1\1r. Turpin entered the ch icken business g reat strides have been taken in the industry (in spite of and not because of him I felt called upon to add) . At present we have a well-equipped henery. fine chickens and an excellent instructOI', one who guarantees to make two hens lay where one laid before.
Veterinary Science HERE has been a D. V. i\L 111 the U. A. C. at different periods since 1893, when S. S. T\\'ombly, :'II. S., D. \ T. S. supervised t hc tortu re of the dumh descendants of our ancestors - according to Darwin. It was his distinction to inoculate, hypodermically, the fe\Oered and otherwise affected seniors with some antitoxic elements of anatolllY, physiology alld hygiene, followed e\'cry -1-8 hours with a few gra in s of "P<,lrasites and their diseases as affect in g t he domestic animals." The next to bestride the chair was a certain Paul Fisher, fresh from Berl in , Germa ny . with a D. V. 1\1. decorating his name behind. i-iis term expired in the year 1898. 101
In 1900 beginning with the new century L. A. :'lerrill, then assistant P rofessor of Agriculture and \ -eterinary Science, but now soaring in quite different realms, led the unsuspecting preps. and \ Vinter Shorthorns through the atmosphere of horseology. The year 1005 marks a decided revolution in the course of events connected with Veterinary Science in our school. Dr. H. J. Frech-ick, fresh from the reputable Yeterinary School "A mes" was added to t h e list of dignitaries. His ability and love for the work soon permeated the school, which resulted in many A l students choos in ~ Veterinary Science as a major study. \Vi th some difficulty a full 4-year course leading to a D. V. fir. was in the year 1907-8 catalogue. To our regret at the close of the first term the government made a ruling to the effect that at least four graduate veterinarians should be on the roll of those dealing in knowledge in order to dignify with a D. V. M., the names of those who successfully C0111pleted four years of college work. This necessitated materially cutting the four years¡ course, and . resulted in fifteen determined students leaving the institution to complete their chose n line of work in Eastern colleges, the largest numLer of ~tude nts in the history of the Institution, lca\¡ing it at one time to contlllue the accumulatIOn of knowledge-excellent evidence of the Ilceds of such a course in this western country . .The Doctor is till with u~ , a fact which a bunch of us highly appreCIate, a .buncl: who are gettl11g enough of the essence of horseology 111 connectIon WIth va n ous other extracts, to assure our preservation th rough the winter and prepare LIS for junior standing in some good Eastern school next fall.

F you see a student watching, hour after hour, a toad catching flies, you may know he has been studying Zooology. If you see him straining his eyes looking at swamp water through a microscope. take it for granted he is hunting that innocent little animal, the amoeba. If, when you talk with him, he calls his mouth the "buccal cavIty," his fingers phalanges or his knee cap a patella, you may know that he is steeped in Zoology and his is a hopeless case. But when the course accomplishes its aim it leaves a student broader, more intelligent and with some knowledge of his own body and the great animal kingdom: knowledge he must have to be called in any way educated.
Extension 1Jepartment "
l~lE
Extension Department of the College has been organized for the purpose of extending the benefits of the College over every portion of the state. Recent advances made in the sciences of agriculture and home economics make it imperative that the men and women who are living o n the farm and in farm homes of the state. ha\'e an opportunity to get in touch with the work that has been done for them by the various agencies that are directing their attention to their problems. Many of the men and women of middle age and mature life never had the opportunity to become acquainted with some of the scientific truths applicable to their home life. 103
The Extension Department of the College is simply a traveling school, and the main purpose of the Department is to carry the results of the Experiment Station and the methods of the College to the people on the farm who find it impossible to get away to attend school. The Department has charge of the Farmers' and Housekeepers' Schools that are being held in the various counties I)f the state, their schools extending through one week. At these schools separate sessions are held for the men and women during the morning and afternoon, and conjoint session in the evening. In the men's section. instruction is given on the modern methods of fanning, and such subjects as "Improvement of the Farm Crops," ":,fethods of Cultivation of Soils," "Horticultural 1Iethods," "Selection and Improvement of Farm Animals," are discussed. In the Women's section, topics of interest to home-makers are taken up. "Problems of Sanitation," "l\1ore Economical Methods of Cooking," and the "Consen'ing of Energy in Caring for the Home," arc some of the subjects dwelt upon. These schools have prm'ed to be very popular with the people, and the demand for them has been greater than the College has been able to meet, thus far. The work of carrying on the Farmers' Insti¡¡ tutes also goes under this department. At the Institutes, successful men and women in tlle various part:; of the State. are called to assist in this work. and during the past few years. the efforts of the Institute workers have met with unbounded enthusiasm. Exhibits at the State Fairs. lectures before Commercial Clubs. Teachers' Institutes and yarious other organizations, and correspondence. occupy the time of the workers in this department. There is an annual appropriation of $5000 from the state, for the maintenance of this department. and a bill is now pending before Congress. providing for a Federal appropriation of $10.000 annually, for each state for the purpose of carrying on of this work. The Deseret Farmer is the official organ of the Extension Department. and it is affirmed by ' many of the farmers of the state, that aside from the Agricultural College itself, there has been no more potent factor in the development of agriculture in this state.
104
The Winter Course HE history of V\Tinter Courses in the A. C. is almost as old as the history of the institution itself. In January. 1893, the first course was offered, consisting of a series of lectures on agricultural subjects, an admission fee of 50 cents being charged for each lecture. After two years these lectures were replaced by a course beginning January 1st and continuing until J,Iarch 1st. It was found impossible to persuade the farmers to leave the farms for this length of time and the course proved a failure. Shortly after 1900 an attempt was made to revise the course, and the length of the term was reduced to ten weeks . At this stage the attendance was still very small. One of the students who was attending at the time summed it up by saying, "There were two men , seven boys. and three kids." The course was again shorten~d, as it was the farmers and not their boys that the school wanted to reach , and the attendance was slightly increased. It was found impossible to get the farmers out, as the course had been run so in 1907-08 th e winter course was advertised as the Farmers' Round-Up, to continue for two weeks, the first week being given exclusively to agronomy and horticulture; the second week to be given entirely to live stock history and management. The Round-Gp consisted of a series of lectures by the best men procurable and proved a great success, there being 49 registered the first year and 135 the second year,

Forestry FTER the Xmas Holidays the course in Forestry opened its third season, in this Institution. Different from former years, this winter's course drew its men from e\'ery Xational Forest in the Intermountain region, and was recruited almost entirely from Rangers III the Forest Sen'ice. Julian E . Rothery, of the Forest Service, who had charge of the work last year, also took it in hand this year, but \\'ith the increased attendance, three assistants were employed. They were an interesting set of men, these Forest Rangers. Drifting into this country originally from twenty different states, and now scattered over great stretches of mountain wilderness, from the Yellowstone to the Grand Canyon, it is not strange that their lives held much of the f1a\"or of pioneer days. Stories of wolves and bears. and bad men, of snow slides and unscalable mountains and llllexplored canyons, form the staple of the Forest Ranger's talk. He is the last of the frontier's men, the pall bearer of the wilderness period. For behind the Ranger comes the good road. the telephone, the regulation of the grazing and timber industries, the end o i the forest fire, of the day of the camper and fisherman. He is an earnest, loyal, sort of a fellow, this Forester, and we're giad to ha\'e him here with us, to cover the campus with surveyor's pegs and to decorate the hall's with his green uniform. :\Iay he come agalll next year!

Home Economics I-JAT means the air of pride and satisfaction that permeates College Hill these smiling spring days? Don't you know? \ '-hy the \ ,- oman's Building is completed and Alma ~[ater thrills with pride as she gives to her daughters this last best gift. The old dormitory reconstructed from basement to attic, has become a thor(Jughly equipped, thoroughly up-to-date school of Domestic Science and Arts. The metamorphosis is truly wonderfulsteam heat, an ele\-ator, hardwood floors, elegant yet simple furnishings and the most thoroughly equipped laboratories in the \\'est haye turned the dingy old dormitory into a veritable "palace of light." It would almost seem as though Alma ~rater were a sort of Fairy Godmother or had had the help of Aladdin and his wonderful lamp in bringing about this happy change. In the sunny spaciou laboratories of the \\-oman's Building the home makers of the future are taught how to stew and boil and bake, scientifically and methodically with minimum expenditure of fuel. materials and physical energy. Here the leading questions of the clay, "How is the high cost of living to be reduced ?" is simply and summarily answered. Here man's heart is won with viands worthy the table of a king. Here ~Iiss Domestic Science learns how to lighten all the labor of house keeping, from the washing of windows and linen to the preserving of fruits and winter flannels; from the sweeping of cobwebs and carpets to the making of beds and tea rolls! Here ~Iiss Domestic Arts learns how to draft, cut, baste, fit. and finish a gown that would justify a Paquin label, ancl to "build" a hat, the architecture of which would riyal that of the Tower of Dabel. \\-ith the fireless cooker. the yacum s\\'eeper and the self-running washer and sewing machine the house-wife of the future will find ample time to keep up her Drowning and Deethoyen, while the house work is doing itself. "\\-hat to Reacl \Yhile You \\-ait"' is the title of a new book the English Depart111ent is bringing out for the benefit of the D. S. and D. A. girls. It looks as if the home-makers of the future, with the sciences paying the way for the arts. and the arts making easy the way of the sciences, ought all to become types of "The perfect \\'oman nobly planned.

School of Commerce HEY who would succeed in life financially in whatsoever pursuit, must take an active part in business and be thoroughly trained for it. As early as 1892 the establishment of a School of Commerce was recommended to the President of the Utah Agricultural College, and in that year a school was established under the able leadership of Joseph E. Shephard. At that early date numerous colleges in the west were turning out men and women with from three to six months' training to direct the affairs of the commercial world. vVith a hope of bettering the situation and meeting the demands of the fast growing \ Vest a three years' course wa offered, comprising the following depart ¡ ments: Accounting, Stenography, and Typewriting. Although the chief aim was to prepare solid men and women for the commercial world, the very fact that there is a business side of e\'ery vocation was realized and courses were later prepared especially adopted for the farmer. mechanic. hOllsekeeper and professional man. At present the school occupies the third floor of the main building. It ha~ ample 1'00111 and modern equipment for up-to-date work in real banking and office practice. and in alJ phases of commercial education. 115
No department of the college has realized a more healthy and rapid progress. Its enrollment numbers 141, or about one-seventh of the students of the institution . As organized at p resent the school has six distinct departments and is offering the following subjects: Economics-Elements of Economics, Agricultt1ral Econom ics, History of Commerce, Elements of Sociology, ~Ioney and Banking, Public and Corporation Finance, Taxation, Economic and Commercial Geography, ~Iarketing of Products, Railway Transportation and Practice, Industrial and Commercial Law, and a research course in Economics. Political Science-Government Constitutional Law, International Law, Comparative Study of Governments and Contracts.
Accounting-Theory of Accou nts, Business Practice, Office Practice and Banking, Expert Accounting and Auditing, Commercial Arithmetic. Stenography-Stenography I, Stenography II. Typewriting-Typewriting I, Typewriting II. Penmanship.

HE beginning of the lechanic Arts Department takes us back to the first year of the institution. During that winter instruction was given in shop work, in wood and in iron. There were thirty-two students in these courses out of a total enrollment of one hundred and thirty-nine students. That this part of the school was kept up with the progress of the other departments is shown by what is being done at the present time. Manual tralJ1111g courses are offered in carpentry, forging, carriage building, machine work, a nd wood carving, with an enrollment of two hundred and eighteen. The aim in all the courses is to put the mind and hand in closer touch with each other and to develop skill in the use of the different hand tools and modern machinery, thus preparing the students for a practical life of usefulness.

ment. That some of the boys have been successful in their efforts is proved by the well made articles now in the exhibit room. The first two years the boys spend most of their time making exercises involving some of the most practical and useful joints used in any branch of the work. During the third and fourth year the students may devote their time to cabinet work and wood carving or house finishing and other practical problems. It is seldom that the shops are honored by a class composed of girls. This year happened to be an exception. One of the ad\'anced classes in D. S. spent a few weeks in the shop trying to make a box.

F there is any other place in the institution more noisy than the main hall during the Prep. rush for the door of Student Life office on Friday morning. it is the forge r00111 during any class period. In the effect of the noise upon the hearers there is no comparison. The ringing of the anvil, the whirring of machinery. and the hissing sound of the fire all carry with them the thought of industry and advancement. The sound coming frol11 the r00111 is the first thing that attracts the attention of a visitor; then it is the sight of so many boys busily engaged in shaping the hot iron; then the thought of the great influence such training will have upon the lives of these boys; but the great satisfaction comes to the teacher and student-to the student because of the pleasure gained in being able to direct his energy so as to develop and become skilled and useful to others; to the teacher in watching this development under his direction. Carriage building and other practical problems are the incentives offered to the students to continue during the third and fourth years. Enrollment, 79.

OR the student whose plans are not matured, who does not know precisely what line to make his life work, but who . wishes a good, broad, general education, the School of ~~ ",.J General Science appeal in particular. In it he is offered a substantial foundation in almost any line he may after·· wards select. Although the course is meant primarily for the student who intends to later specia lize, still by requiring certain group of kindrel! subjects around major subjects it sufficiently specializes a student to enable him or her to begin their vocation without added schooling. An additional advantage the school pre.sents is its flexibility in allowing the choice of studies. Almost any student can secure subjects that not only possess the necessary disciplinary and develop-· mental qualities but that appeal to him as well. In a great measure the popularity of the Sdlool lies in th is feature. Another claim which the school has upon popularity comes from the great scope of subjects offered from which a major may be selected, running from English to Chemistry, from Languages to Zoology. Because of these many and varied excellent qualities this school has been steadily growing and is one of the 1110St important div ision,., of the college. ...

DDITIOKAL roorn, new equipment and a larger enrollment of students than during any previous year have helped to make the school year of 1909-10 a banner year for the Art Department. The work in design has made rapid progress, some of it has been applied on textiles and copper. and the immediate future will , we trust, see the working out of st udent design in pottery, ceramics, tooled leather, carving. copper, and j isso. Object and cast drawing and pictorial C01l1pOsitlOn have made good headway, and while but little work has been done in oil and water colors, that littJe has been exceptionally good. The work in illustration is stronger than ever before, as this year's "Buzzer" will prove without further statement, and the annual exhibit was one to make old Alma :'1ater proud of those of her children who toil with brush and pencil to express themselves.

LOCCTIOl\" is a sort of ugly duckling in an Industriai School. It does not rhyme with Horticulture or Agrolloll~y: it is not aile of the ingredient of Domestic Science and likely its only kinship to the shops is just "fire up and forge ahead." "1 I'ad a dream which was not all a dream," dame rumor said. ":-le-thought that Prof. Homer electrocuted his class with, 'Have you seen an apple orchard in the spring? in the spring? That Prof. Smith, with great regard for persons and people, and with great feeling, recited, 'Flower in a crannied wall, I pluck you out of the crannies," and that John III. gave such a glowing verbal presentation of the "Breaking of Bllcephalus" that every stuclent in College longed to be an Alexander. History has become aglo\V with the mournful dirge of Priam to Beveridge's last speech in Congress. Prof. Evans can giye more history in a ten minute reading of Patrick Henry's Speech than some Historians can give in a volume. EYer since the battle of Gettysburg, Prof. Hogensen has turned his "ocal powers to the in ¡ terprctation of the plow boy poet and "Titus" now has the native lyric of every alfalfa destroying insect. Prof. Pedersen, e\'en in Paraclise Lost, dares to emphasize "Hear it not students, this is the knell that sumlllons thee to heaven or hell." And Prof. Langton finished his course in Astronomy with Browning'S Star, the last lines of which are still ringing through the hearts of the students. "';\That matter to me if this star is .l world, Mine has opened its soul to me, therefore I love it." vVhill~ from the far off ';\Toman's building comes Miss Huntington's refrain. "Love is best, love is best." 124
HIS department is the guardian of speech and is necessarily of a conservative turn of mind. AlJ new-fangled locutions, all barbaric slang and vague though glittering generalities are carefuJ1y inspected and weeded out of the literary masterpiece. But, truth to teJ1, the major part of the work of the department consists not in pruning literary talent, but in waging incessant warfare against insidious speJ1ing, confusion of singular and plural, split infinitives, random commas, and invertebrate sentences. Considerable time is also spent in attempts to convince the yQJ~thful student that there is an English lierature older than the daily newspaper; that Shakespeare can be read for entertainment and ~Iilton for pleasure; that the ability to appreciate and enjoy "a book of verses underneath the bough" should be an integral part of every education, industrial as welJ as liberal. Another phase of the work 111 English is oral delivery. The courses in elocution, debating, and public speaking. and the argumentative work in English five and seven, aim to enable the student to appear before an audience without being covered by blushing confusion and express his ideas with persuasive vigor. The department also has a finger in the annual U. A. C. dramati-: pie, or pies. rather. since performances are multiplying. l\Iembers of the EnglIsh faculty select the plays and the casts, and coach the players. This year " M r. Bob" and " The Climbers" both brOtwht fame to the U. A. C. It is to be hoped that next year will brina ~tiJ1 areater triumphs. Furthermore, the t,,,o fields of col\eae acti;;tv-intercollegiate debating and college i~u.rnalism-both ~ely on t-he English department for. a general superVISIOn of their diction. It is hoped that the day of a lIterary society is not far distant, and there should be room in an industrial coJ1eg'e for a writers' club. Both organizations would certainly receive the encouragement and the active support of the English Department. 125
_"""'lI_. . EOLOGY and minel'alogy
in the College date back to the year 1893. when. with Prof. \tVm. 0, Cutler at its head, into the catacombs of the earth's long past, From this modest beginning in those early days, with a course of modest beginning in those eaerly days, with a course of fifty lectures in the spring term. the department has hac! a rather yariec! development and expansion, For a period of time it was housed in the basement of the Experiment Station building. when it seems to have become so thoroug-hlv adaoted to its environment that it still finds the basement a desirable habitat. But progress and developmen t have ever been its watch words, and we note with satisfaction a substantial growth of the department from its beginning. After two years with Prof. Cutler at the helm, in 1895-96 Profs. Caine and Widtsoe took charge of the work, and in 1896 Dr. \Vidtsoe became head of the department. a position held until 1901. During these years the department made notable advances. Besides the work in geology, which consisted largely of structural and economic studies, systematic courses in mineralogy and assaying were offered. The museum and laboratory collections, both mineralogic and geologic, g;-ew and increased in number until its old home had to be abandoned. True to its basal tendencies, however, we next find its quarters in the basement of the main building, where it is located at the present time. In 1901 Prof. \tVm. Peterson was given charge of the work in geology and minerology, and under his direction the department was conducted until 1908. Since that time the present head has been in charge. Much the same as in the past, the present aims of the department are: to acquaint the student with the long history of the earth's development, to tell him something of her economic products and their uses, and to teach him how to recognize those products 111 their natural state. In our museum some of our ancestral forerunners are represented. To all who know them not, we extend an invitation to come down and get acquainted. 126

Every student who has taken any history course feels that the characters studied and lived with other thought than to complicate matters for the unhappy student to come. But if we take Prof. Evan's word for it, history is a mO\-ing force in our civilization. The study of what Caesar did for Rome undoubtedly will encourage every little American boy to be great: the story of Caesar's death wil l warn him against too great ambition. But certain it is, that we have in our college a most efficient History Department, one accomplishing the end aimed at and this end is a good sound introduction into the history of the people of our earth fo r the purpose of broadening us and making us more able to appear li.ke coll ege graduates in afte r life.

HE organization of the Chemistry Department dates from the begining of the College. It was first placed in the Experiment Station, and then moved to the second floor of the north wing of the Main Building, occupying the east side, much the same as at present. After a short sojourn here, it was transferred to the 110rth part of the Mechanic Arts Building, where it remained for one year. From here it was taken to the rooms now occupied by the Zoology Labs, and in 1902 it was installed 111 its present quarters on the second floor ot the 110rth wing. \tV m. P. Cutter of Cornell was our first chemist. In 1892, S. S. Twombly, 11. S., D. V. S. assumed charge of the department, and Prof. Cutler became acting professor of Physics and :'Ilathematics. Prof. Twombly was succeeded in 189j by Dr. V\l idtsoe, who also had charge of the work in Geology and Mineralogy. Dr. \tVidtsoe shaped the destinies of the department for the next ten years, being succeeded in 1905 by Dr. P. A. Yoder. Dr. Yoder resigned in 1907, and since then the work of the department has been carried on by Dr. Robert Stewart. In the beginning just one course was given-that of Elementary Chemistry-but the accumulation of chemical knowledge has grown so rapidly, that it now requires thirteen courses to do justice to the work. From an enrollment of thirty in 1902 the registration of the de¡ partment has increased until at present it has a total enrollment of 209. The demand for instruction is becoming so great that the prestnt quarters are proving inadequate, and the department is looking forward to a not far distant date. when we shall have a new chemistry building, or an overhauling and great enlargement of the present quarters. \Ve have the best department library of its kind in the state, and the ability of the men who have been turned out frOI11 this department leaves no doubt as to the quality of the work that is being done. 128

student wants a taste of the "higher education." Pray tell me, where could it be better obtained than in a course in German under our "petit" Professor Arnold. At some time in our lives we will all meet the necessity of "rising to the occasion." \Vhere indeed, could such experience be better obtained than in a class in French. This, then, is the reason why dear old Dr. Thomas, kindly Pa Caine, Uncle Chris Larson and the rest of those placed over us to look after our mental and moral welfare insist upon two years of language before we can obtain a degree. But there are also. othe r advantages to be gained from a speaking know ledge of some foreign language. Think how nice it is to be able to talk in the cafeteria lin e up, with another equally gifted person, so that your neighbor can not understand you! \Vhat pleasure can be derived from watching the gaping mouths of those around you! This should be the ambition of every student studying a foreign language, an am ibti on, which, if realized, will undoubtedly win the admiration and esteem of our Language faculty.
The Library HE Library is the heart of the co ll ege. its specialty being horticulture. Go into its broad and pacious halls, adorned with Greek statues and lJtah oil paintings, any .hour of the day and you will find from twenty to sixty boys and girls, symmetricall y divided into pai rs and cosi ly ensconced in nooks and corners, pretending to be immersed in Life or Beowulf or Youths' Companion or Midsummer Night's Dream-pretending, I say, but in reality deep in the mystic mazes of Hearticulture-not the kind taught by Professor Homer, either! Our library has been a ITligratory institution. It began its modest career in room 280, on the second floor of the south wing in the main building. From here it was transferred to the west end of the large chapel, and later to the rooms now occupied by the ~luseum and 129
the Agronomy Laboratory. In 1902 it was moyed to its present quar¡ ters, where it occupies the entire front of the second floor of the main building. The first librarian was :-Irs. Lettie C. Richman, who took control in 1892. She was followed in 1893 by :-liss Clare Kenyon, who held the position until 1896, when she was succeeded by 1\11"5. Sara Godwin Goodwin. Miss Elizabeth Church Smith, our present librarian, succeeded ::-'Irs. Goodwin in the fall of 1903. From a humble beginning of 1,500 volumes the library has grown until at present it consists of about 18,000 bound volumes, and a large number of pamphlets. The books are classified according to the Dewey decimal system, and completely catalogued with a card catalogue, containing author, title. and subject cards. It also contains a shelf list, which forms a classed catalogue for official use. The library is a depository for United States public documents, and receives practically all documents printed by the government. There are ninety-five periodicals on the subscription list, and about eighty more which are received as exchanges for the publications of the college and of the Experiment Station. Thirty-five newspapers of the State are regularly received and placed on file in the reading room. It is the 1110St complete library in Northern Utah. and without doubt contains more high priced scientific books than any library 111 the State. A course in library work was established in 1903, with the object of familiarizing the student with the library and to teach him how to obtain information quickly. It is rapidly growing in popularity, and at present has an enrollment of about forty-five. By way of improvements the Juniors suggest that the number of study niches among the stacks, just large enough for two, be materially increased. Cosy little settees should be plentiful to entice the indifferent second year students into the reading habit, and two dozen Japanese screens judiciously disposed in front of settees and small tables would greatly enhance the beauty of the r00111 and also hide the sensitive students from the gaze of the many curious visitors.

Physical Education/or Women . HE course in physical training for WOJ11en at the A. C. U. ~ began 'w ith the school and has developed in scope with the . g rowth of the schooL The earliest work in this departJ11ent ',' was J11ilitary drill with light rifles and spears. The girls â&#x20AC;˘ wore dark blue J11ilitary dress, s iJ11ulatin g a uniform and forage cap. They had their first captain and second lieutenant and corporal. On the parade ground they held their on well ~Iong sid e the J11en, both in skill ill the handling of their rifles and in "military bearing." They were justly proud of themselves and the school was. too. In 1897-98 J11i1itary drill was discontinued, and in its place "free gymnastics," that is, gYJ11nastics without apparatus, was substituted, calisth en ics and both light and heavy work with club and dumb-bells were also added. \ Vith the growth of the school and the equipJ11ent of the g'ymnas ium , work with apparatus has been taken up and much valuable training has been done with the aid of stall-bars, horizontal bars. parallel bars, weights and pulleys, vaulting boxes, and special corrective apparatus. Creditable work has also been done in basket ball and football. The Swedish system of gymnastics, the German and the Delsartian have all been judiciously and effecti\'ely used in the work in physical train in g. Fancy dancing, J11arching and games have also played an important part in training the girls of our school to attain physical grace and efficiency. The work aiJ11s to be both creative and recreative, both preventative and remedial, to give our girls sound and sYJ11metrical bodies that will obey the J11ind and reveal the soul.

Public Speaking HE work in public speaking has gone vociferously and successfully on, beginning in a tremolo and ending in a fortissimo. The youthful eeker of platform laurels has in his quest for fame followed \\'ebster into the Senate, Choate to the bar, and Everett upon the academic platform; has listened to the eloquence of Burke, O'Connell and Phillips, and taken the advice of Hamlet and speaks his speech trippingly on the tongue. He has lifted up his voice in the colloquial, the oratorical, the didatic, the forensic, the hortatory, and the eulogistic, but it is in extemporaneous speech making that he has lifted it highest and oftenest. \Vhen Major reasons that, "::\lilitary Drill should be taken l:>.y the Seniors," and has Oldham warmed up to a spirited negation, Burton judicially slips in and in a gentle conciliatory tone introduces an "Alaskan glacier" and temperatures are restored to the normal. At this point Osmond timidly brings in the "Tariff" and talks like a "judge" who has his Ph. D. Haslam, who has a corner of the market on "Questions of the Day," takes his turn, and when Christiansen on "Biblical Research," and Christiansen on "Ethical Virtues" has created an "atmosphere," Oldroyd, with the gravity of a professional humorist, takes us on "A Fishing Trip" and sets us . all laughing over the "Fish that we didn't catch." Smart gets us back to dry land with "Prohibition," only to have Fanaka leave us stranded in mid-ocean on our way to Japan , "nd then the bell rings just in time to save us from a financial panic that Rigby and his "Franco-German-English Banking System" would surely have precipitated.

Department of Music ARL Y in the history of our institution it was found that music was an absolute necessity. even in alii' industrial school, and several attempts were made to establish a school in that art. A choir, a band and an orchestra were organized, and instruction on the pian o and the viol in was given at yarious times. Howeyer, it was not until 1904-5 that anything like a permanent pOSItIOn was giyen to the music department. That year is marked by the establishment of the music department. which ha s become an important department of the college. 136 .
~Iusic loving tudents ha,'e found much delight and development the many excellent musical courses offered, These courses were outlined with the idea in mind of laying a sure foundation in the art, and we see by the results of the six years work that this has been borne constantly in mind. Students have been fitted and are being fitted for either professional work or for the fullest enjoyment and ,l keen appreciation of the best in classic music. During this time considerable ground ha been covered by the department, and while it hasn't been possible to use the greatest compositions, representative ' works of various classes have been studied and presented. This year the music department presented "The Geisha," a charming, tuneful work, which fully upheld the reputation of the department. In addition to the seven operas, our Choral Society ha'5 gi,'en to the public faithful and interesting renditions of sacred amI poetic Cantatas or Oratorios. among which were works of Stainer. Dudley Buck, Frederick R. I ~urton (Hiawatha), Niels Gade, Charles Gounod, and F. I-Ian del. 111
The students pursuing priYate work appear each year in a recital where the Student Body and public in general may listen to them and judge for themseh'es as to the thoroughness of their work. ).fuch of the social programme of Logan is handled by the students of music, and the demand for them has increased from year to year. The school in actiYe running' order consists of a Choral Society of about sixty voices which each year appears in ODera and often in oratorio: a band of from thirty to forty pieces. which is heard fre¡ quently in concert: an orchestra of eighteen to twenty pieces which follows a study of both modern and classic writers: a string quartette; . vocal quartette: glee club of male voices: a mandolin-guitar club, and private students in vocal and instrumental music. It is difficult to estimate just how 1l1uch inAuence a systemati:: study along these lines has had on the public at large, but we do know that the results of this training are felt in nearly e,'ery community in the com1l1onwealth. The training offered by the department is not confined to the students of 1llusic alone. but is enjoyed, though, perhaps, unconsciously: by the whole student body. Each week one chapel period is devoted to the rendition of musical selections of a high order. The average student when he first hears Illusic of that class gets very little sati.::ifaction from it. Howeyer, after he is forced to listen each week for from three to six years to a carefully selected variety from the best writers he gradually learns to care less for the common rag-time of the dance and picture show ~ort and to IO\'e the purity and beauty of th<! only real music. 137

A Retrospective Musical Tramp HEL"tah .-\gricultural College is always noted for its efficiency and one bright star that stands out prominently in its firmanent of success is the work that has been done by Prof. G. \\". Thatcher in the lllusic department. \Vitness a brief history of productions, both operatic and oratorio, that the department has presented. The first opera was undertaken in 1905 when the I:y Spencer, was presented with such stars in the cast :\Iinnie Peterson Isgreen, Eunice Jacobsen, Edna Ormsby Hyde, Jim Jardine, Seth Langton, Jr., L. H. Brown.
"Little Tycoon. " as ::\fora Eliason, Daniels, Radic Booth and ~rark
Something a little hea\'ier was attempted in 1906, and by good systematic work of the whole company the "Pirates of Penzance" wa'; "uccessfully staged, the following doing the heavy solo work: YValt Lamoreaux, Mrs. Louie Linnartz, Kora Eliason, Jim Jardine, Eunice Jacobsen and :vIinnie Peterson Isgreen, "Pinafore," a pretty little opera by Sulli\'an, was next staged in Frank Baugh, Jim Jardine, :\I~lroy Kjar and Yates Farnsworth held down the male character parts, while our e\,er faithful soprano, :\'ora Eliason, Coila ~Iontrose Anderson and La\' ina Park were tht: promine.nt feminine stars, 1907.
In 1908 a change from the chorus opera was attempted and prO\'ed a decided victory for the musical department. The "}1arriage by Lanternlight" and "The Rose of Auvergne" were given to appreciati\'e audiences. The" Iarriage by Lanternlight" was performed lw Coila ~[ontrose Anderson, Eunice Jacob en, Edna :\[ontrose and Herbert ~ebeker. The "Rose of Auvergne" was presented by ~,fiss Greta Cardon, Luther ~I. \\'insor and Alfred E. Stratford . Both of these operas were translated from the French by Prof. A.rnold, Offenbach was the composer. Not satisfied with the presentation of light operatic work Prof. Thatcher launched in 1909 the heaviest opera yet undertaken by amateur companies in the State. Victor Herbert's "Babette," a very beautiful opera with music approaching grand opera, was the offering, To say that this musical poduction was well recei\'ed is putting it mildly. \\'herever the company played great enthusiasm was the result. 139
140
Miss Greta Cardon added new laurels to her repertoire as an actress and portrayed the character of "Babette," the village letter writer, true to life. i\Ir. i\Ielroy Kjar and Alfred E. Stratford assi ted )'1iss Cardon ably in the characters of :-Iondragon and ~Iarcel. Luella :\ ebeker, Anna :\ rathison, A. E . Bowman, L. ~I. \Yinsor and George Caine were the other principal members of the cast. Kineteen hundred and ten has brought a new opera before the Logan public, "The Geisha," with all its vivacious freshness. It was a clever little Japanese opera by Sidney Jones, very prettily presented, and brought home new victory for our excellent l11usical department. Ethel Jensen, a valuable addition to the opera cast, sang the pan of ":\1imosa, " the most beautiful Geisha of Japan. l\Ir. Karl Farns¡¡ \\"orth and Albert E. Bowman were the two principal male characters. George Caine, L. ~I. \i\Tinsor, A. E. Stratford, Lulu Ormsby, Luella Kebeker and Emma Linnartz completed the main principals of an excellent cast. Very "aluable development is the result of opera work, but all equally good training is secured by singing the oratorios written b~r the masters. It can truthfully be said that the A. C. U. musical department has liyed up to its high standard of excellence in this regard. From the list of oratorios the following have been sung with wonderful success. "Ria'w atha" by Frederick R. Burton, was presented in 1907 with 1\1r. Alf Farrell, Jim Jardine, Mrs. Kettie Sloan and :\1rs. Louie Linnartz inging the solo parts. This oratorio is still a fond memory. The "Daughter of Jairus ," by Stainer, was sung successfully in 1906. In 1908 Dudley Buck's "Story of the Cross" Revere's Ride" were ably sustained by the choir.
and his "Paul
Kineteen hundred and nine saw the presentation of :\lids Gade's "Christmas Eve" and "Galli a,' by Gounod. Both of chese charming oratorios were well received. Desides these classic pieces of music the U. A. C. chorus has sung selections from the "Messiah," "Cavalleria Rusticana" and other operatic choruses. This little retrospective journey back into A. C. musical history will bring to everyone this fact: the musical department is doing its share to uphold the excellent standard of our dear old A. C. U.

Lieutenant L.
W. Caffey
.. HE coming of Lieut. L. YV. Caffey to the U. A. C. marks a new epoch in the history of military science and tactics at the institution. During the brief period he has been here he has greatly raised the military standard of the school and thro~lgh his efforts this department stands without a peer in any college of the inter-mountain states. The Lieutenant stands for strict military principles in drill, is a genial (?) good natured (?) commandant and has won the love and respect of the entire battalion. He was born in Gordonsville, Ala., Nov. 7, 1868, being a cadet at the Georgia Military Institute, at Atlanta, from 1886 to 1892, where he became an honor graduate. He then studied law and was admitted to the bar in 1894, when he practiced his profession until the outbreak of the Spanish-American war. Here he served in the 2nd Ga. Infantry and was honorably discharged 1\ ov. 30, 1908. In September, 1899, he enlisted again and served with the 40th infantry in the Philippine island from November, 1899 to June 24, 1901. He was appointed 1st lieutenant in the 26 U. S. infantry February 2nd, 1901, and remained with this regiment in the Philippine Islands till July, 1902, when he was transferred to the 15th Infantry. Lieut. Caffey took part in all battles and engagements that his regiment was in during the Phillipine insurrections, hence there is no 'wonder that he longs to hear the b00111 of cannon, the whistling of bullets, the clashing of sabers and the war shout of the Irrogrotes in the Island of Ioilio or the Spaniards at Santiago. He returned to the Philippine Islands with the 15th Infantry November 1905, and back to the U. S. A. in 1907, when he was stationed at Fort Donglas. On May 8, 1909, he was ordered to duty at the U. A. C.

Athletics HE first to ascend the Athletic throne at the Agricultural college was \\' i1larcl Langton, now our loved Prof of ~lath eillatics. It does not take so great a stretch of the imagina_ tion to see our present dignified Professor out upon the football field, just before the game, still dignified, and telling the boys to "give 'em h-I." \Ve can even imagine him in a football suit himself or playing baseball. Howe\'e r the imagination balks when we try to clothe him with a track or basketball suit and we can only hope he ne\'e r attempted that. At the close of the Langton reign King Campbell receind the scepter and ruled long and wisely. He, it was, who established the original and only genuine beef trust and who ga\'e us clemonstrations of the flying human wedge upon the football field. He also gave us a track team and also a tracle The legend goes that during the track season Coach Campbell slept not at all. but remained up night after night, seated in the eastern shadows of the College, tightly grasping a shot gun, waiting, waiting for some innocent cow or straying colt to attempt to walk across the track. \\'e wil! always remember him by his annual chapel talk, the text of which was "The race is not to the swift nor the battle to the strong." Czar \\'alker next ascended the throne and he it was who first showed us the new football. Coach \ \' alker also showed us how baseball should be played. Although his reign was short, the Czar leaving to conquer larger domains, yet he endeared him elf to the whole school. especially the feminine element, whose hearts he won 159
and immediately proceeded to break. Coach \Valker will be remembered for his unequalled effectation, of embarrassment (or was it affectation?) during his chapel talks. At the termination of Czar \Valker's reign a new order of things was established. The Athletic monarchy was changed into a republic by a revolution without bloodshed and without upheaval. President Teetzel took charge of the newly born republic, which position he still holds. He is rapidly organizing a splendid athletic department in our school, he is developing all branches of athletics and building up winning teams in all lines. lIe endeal-s himself to his hearers in chapel talks and elsewhere by his ever forthcoming expression: "Now you'll find this to be true ever time ."

Social Events During the chool year there are about six red letter days on our social calendar. The dancing parties that mark these dates and set them apart are all most eagerly and pleasurably anticipated by every one, and the "event"' always proves worthy and more than worthy of the anticipation.
N order to prove that after all there is something in a name the Agricultural Club opens the social year with its justly famous dancing party-a college party, yes, but distincely an Agricultural college party-overalls and shirt sleeves was the evening dre s of the young men and gingham aprons that of the young women. Farm implements and farm products were the decorations, and only a bona fide student of agriculture could have arranged them in such artistic juxtoposition, pitch forks and pumpkins, plows and potatoes. The refreshments had a rural, bovine Aavor suggestive of "\1I/ay down on the farm." Buttermilk served from a hollow turnip to the accompaniment of a carrot wafer was the frugal fare that lent fun to the evening's gayety. A jolly crowd, a jolly time. Here's to your next "annual," Rube. Your "Onion Leaf Invite" looks pretty good to us!
fF.!l!!.W~11
OLLO\YIXG the ÂŁtIn of the farmer lads comcs The Senior Part y , Purpose: Primarily to maintain the dignity of the class and the institution: sccondarily, to give the juniors and others a good time-which they never fail to do. Despite senior dignity (assumed or thrust upon them) the senior's dancing party is always a social success and without it our social calendar would be incomplete. 194
HE Alumni Ball, always a distinctiye and delightful affair, opens the new year. unique and effecti,"e decorations. delicious refreshments, and cordial good cheer, always characterize the Alumni dancing party and the party on the eyening of January 10th, failed in none of these characteristics ancl added others equally conducive to a thoroughly enjoyahle evening.
-. IJ
ARD upon the heel (or should we say toes) of the Alumni pa rty came the eannual dancing party of the Agricultural ~ College \\Toman's club. This party is a lways of t h e nature . of a " social function" and i largely attended by both . tOWI1S people and college people. Gowns . and graciousness are the features of the eyening. , â&#x20AC;˘ : "_.

A dan tier , prettier ball Toom will be long in the finding than was the Pavilion on the night of the Sorosis dancing party-yine cO\"ered trelises and mamllloth sih"er cone suspended from the ceiling and trailing a wealth of smilax posted us at once to summerland. C::orosis, charmingly gowned in fetching fancies of silk and gossamer, smiled a gracious welcome upon its guests, and all \\"e m merry a~ a marriage bell. 19 5

, HE Annual Military Ball of February 28, 19lO, is generaJIy conceded to be the most successful military baJI in the , history of the institution. 'Certainly such a finished ex, lo!~ " 'ji hibition of military tact ics as the drill by the U. A. C. cadets, has never been witnessed in Logan heretofore. This was of course the ma11l feature of the evening and 111l1ch credit is due Lieutenant Caffey and his officers and cadets for the brilliant manner in which they acquitted themselves. ~,
Governor Spry, following the custom he inaugurated a year ago, was present with his staff. \Ve certainly do appreciate this attention and courtesy from the Governor and trust th'a t the custom will never be suffered to faJI into disuse. Anum ber of Un ited States Army officers from Fo rt Douglas were also present in fu ll uniform, thus augme n ting the m il itary aspect of the occasion . Old Glory and our national colors were the decorations. Excellent music, delicious refreshments . and beautiful gowns played no smaJI part in making the evening a brilliant and signal success.

ONDA Y evening, April 11, was the last of our red letter dates and the end practically of our social calendar. The . Junior Prom. of this date was a worthy successor of its illustrious predecessors in the social calendar of 1909-1910. Realizing that it was the last occasion of the school year for mingling with fellow students to wile away a social evening to the pleasing measures of a waltz, two-step or glide, everyone turned out determined to haye a jolly good time, and they had it. The Junior Prom of 1910 will long be remembered by all who were there as one of the "classiest," merriest and happiest dancing parties of college days . "Classiest" because the "classy" class of 1911 gave it: merriest and happiest for the same reason and others too many and various to en u merate. The decorations were booths elaborately and artistically built; representing faculty, clubs and classes, From the 'junior booth, a bower of white and rose occupying the whole balcony, delicious refreshments were served to the daintily gowned girls and their gallant escorts. All told, the Junior Prom was a memorable medley of merrymakers and music -a happy ending to our year's Social Successes.

OFFICERS OF HOME ECONOMICS CLUB
Home Economics Club N ::\ovember, naughty-nine, under the direction of l\liss Huntington, a club was organized among the young women studying Domestic Science and Arts, for the purpo e of promoting sociability among them and to bring them into closer touch with the home economics movement. The first meeting of the club was held in the form of a house warming at the \Voman's Building, which had practically reached completion and was being opened for regular class and labvratory work. Miss Huntington, as hostess of the day. welcomed the club members and gave a charming little talk on "The True Christmas Spirit," the date of the meeting being most apropos for such a talk. Games, chat, laughter, and dainty refreshments made the afternoon pass very quickly and pleasantly. At the Housekeepers' Conference in January the club gave a Japanese art exhibit, which proved both interesting and profitable. l\Ir. Featherstone, who has spent a number of years in Japan, gave a very delightful talk on "The Life and Traditions of the Japanese." In ~Iarch the club gave an informal reception to the \V'hole student body. which was unanimously pronounced a success. Another year, with the woman's building better equipped for entertainment, the club, no longer in its early infancy, hopes to make its influence more keenly felt by means of lectures, receptions, exhibits and entertainments. 213

The Agricultural Club o I~_~I
never have known a thing is never to miss it. This is the only ground on which we ean cxplain the fact that the Agricultral College existed and even grew until the year 1902, without an Agricultural Club. But true it is that it was not until the year 1902 that the ¡'A.g Club" was or-
ganized. Its purpose in organization was to advance scientific agriculture, to bring its members into touch with the latest Agricultural ideas not treated in the class rooms, and it has succeeded wonderfully well. Aside from this it has built up a loya l body of students, who everywhere boost and pull for their t;. A. C. At present the "Ag Club" is by fa r the strongest institution of its kind in the college, and it bids fair to hold its enviable position.

the past few months we ha\'e acquired not a little information on a great many subjects . From the President down through thp long line of lesser lights that surround him. we haye learned things we should do, things we should not do. how to li\'e. how not to live. and lastly how to die and how not to die . Let me recall to your mind a few of the thoughts that were intended to make you feel that attendance at chappI is worth while, and that YOll will continue to come. even though it be compulsory. From the President we ha\' e learned for our own good, that this universe is goyerned by laws. the student body of the Agricultural College not excepted. Professor Langton has left with you the lasting impression of his learned look. for he is the man who has read the great book through and through. learned all things. tried all things good and bad on ly to conclude from his long experience in chapel. faculty meeting and Math. -to that all is yanity . yanity and vexation of spirit Dr. Thomas will be remembered by all as the living example of the plodder. He it is that has shown that straight is the way and narrow is the path that leads to no difficulties with the attendance committee. To Pa Caine belongs the distinction of having read YOll the rules early ' in the year and since then busied himself with their enforcement. Incidentally he preaches the gospel of matrimony to the unattached members of the faculty at odd times. and l-ightly we may say. "'Yoe be with them if they heed not his teachings." Dr. Ball has fixed his smiling countenance firmly upon our impression by ha\'ing the happy faculty of laughing at his own jokes, which we have learned are a necessary prelude to his chapel announcements. \\' e may feel certain that the doctor has learned well the words "Laugh if you are wise." Professor J. \V. Jensen from all his walks and talks will leave behind him the thought that it is well for us to feel our way in this big wide world with much deliberation. To him, we conclude, every man is innocent until he has been proved guilty. Professor Arnold. needless to say . has. unlike the German General Von :\folke. of whom we have learned. become famous by not being able to hold his tongue in five languages. And next in seniority of appointment comes Professor Larson, the only feminine male member of the faculty. His memory will not soon be forgotten fr0111 the emphasis so aptly placed in his very corelial 223
il1\'itation to "every single one of yOl( to be present at the recent faculty reception tendered the students. Other things too might be said about the man who teaches us how to write and speak correctly, and above all to use no superfluous words. For instance, to certain members of the faculty he is known to have said, while partak~ng of some of the dainties of the run-at-cost establishment in the basement, "these grapes are not remarkable for their freshness." And indeed it must be a rare pleasure for any membeT of the faculty to have an opportunity of taking twenty minutes of our valuable time to announce the coming of an amateur dramatic company to our ill-fated city, which happens to suffer the misfortune of being located on ~ hranch line. Dr. Stewart will long be remembered as the silent man, who was never known to speak and when his turn in chapel comes round, he only delivers good things second hand, from books that impress him most. And why not, for is not the wise man he who "gives every man his ear but few his tongue." To Miss Huntington belongs the distinction of having felt the influence of Professor Caine and Governor Spry long' before her appearance upon the scene. This we know because of the great knowledge she brought with her concerning things domestic, and it hardly need to be said that she is heartily in sympathy with the "Home ~eekers' Circle." Professor Titus will last long in our memory as the man with the systematic idea firmly fixed. ~Iost of your grades he remembers, for others he need only refer to his card index, alphabetically arranged and if you have an A and a B and a C, he can readily prove to you that you have no place on the fir t college roll. His relig-ion in cha pel has been to teach that next to oxygen. grass is the most important life giving substance. About Dr. Frederick there is little to be said. only that students of veterinary science sing his praises far and wide. In chapel he is the man who is known to take more than his allotted time by reading irolll books remarkable [or their dryness. Professor J Jogenson. wily man, wOlild have us believe that within him lies the power to make two blades of grass grow where only one . grew before. Beware of him for he, too, finds sermons in books for our mutlnl benefit. From Professor H olller we have had a retrospect of the days II'hen his ambitions ran high in these halls, to the end that you may have great cause for rejoicing in the anticipation of days to come. In Professor ,Vest we have another product of the school. Of all the members of the faculty no one, save the vice-president, has so thoroughly illlpressedus with the thought that "he kno\vs and knows 224
that he knows," and well it is said of him, "He is wise, follow him." Professor Smith will long stand in our memory as the man who has missed his calling. \Vhile there are few things about botany he does not know, yet he has told us that no less than four months were consUllled in the preparation of his chapel talk this year, and lest we should misuse "persons and people" let me urge you not soon to forget what he had to say. Incidentally I may state that the English department is considering asking Professor Smith to become one of its members. Professor Caine III is the man among us who heeds not his father's teachings, but were he to die tomorrow he need not be ashamed for he has satisfied Horace Mann that he is able to point out the good and bad things about horses and cows. And to add more to his good name, he recently caused to be barbecued one fatted calf, which was greatly enjoyed by a few of the best of us. From Professor Porter we have learned that there are good reasons for not being a Jonah, lest we be swallowed up by the whale. And Professor Evans has told us how a little man became great. In Professor G. C. Jensen, another man who finds one language insufficient for his daily bread, we have cause to wonder. He it is that knows all the good things in English literature, but he finds that "The mills of the Gods grind slowly." For pastime he takes prizes at the poultry show with his fine birds, which we have heard are telltale in the way they gobble. Professor Pedersen is sometimes the man who finds it profitable to read Browning and at times, when his turn collles round, he is guilty of having us follow him in the wanderings of the soul. Professor Godclard's name will go down in the annals of time as the man for whom all the other unattached members of the faculty will have cause to rejoice when he has yielded to the advice ' of Pa Caine. And that they may not despair of having him out of the field it may be well to state that right now Cupid is known to be playing pranks with him, only he does not know that we know. Professor Fletcher is one of us who has suggested the thought that he suffers a handicap by having his early morning hours disturbed with his plans for the day, but after all, he finds that song, religion and work go hand in hand to make life a very serious matter. In Professor Greaves we have an example of the large man who is perfectly harmless, another member of the chemistry department who "says nothing, but saws wood." To Miss Cooper belongs the distinction of having been reared in these halls. Early in life she discovered that everything about man was bad; later she learned the folly of her way, but to this day she is paying the penalty. As my recollections go, we have not heard from her in chapel this year, but I give you fair warning that for the past 225
four years she has diligently sought methods for the extermination of the house fly, and you may expect the results of her discoveries in a long discourse at any time. One other subject. now, may be foremost in her mind, namely the planning of a cottage for one. :\Iiss Huntsman is known as the gayest of us all. She too might have been looking upon life from a different point of " iew had she not been too ambitious in days gone by, and only heed ed the advice of Father Caine . ~riss lI o lmgren has gone without bidding us farewell. Since she is a martyr in a good cause, we may hear more frolll her again later. Our one great hope is that she will not fail to make it known to all intending unattached members, that th'e water is fine . To ~Iiss Kyle belongs the good fortune of being the one among us who finds that the person that's worth while, is the one that can smile when eyerything goes dead wrong. That you may know the things that are foremost in her mind, I may state that she too is cultivating the domestic taste, to the end that she may have good reasons for expecting the support of Governor Spry at an early date. ~Tiss Parmalee has not talked in chapel yet, but we are all anxious to hear her story. A short time ago at the I--:1owell home, when ~Irs Howcll rushed into the kitchen to look at her mince pies, she found -:\1 iss P. sitting' bv the stove w ith her feet in the oven. An open book by on her lap and she was crving' vociferously. She made the following explanation : "\Vhile I sat here reading Dora Thorne, I began to th i11 k and the more I thought the more I cried. I thought I was married and that little Russell, while playing on the floor, had seen these pies. I thought that in his effort to g'et them he had crawled into the o\'en and that you had closed the door." More sobs. It is said that the consent given by :\Iiss Parmalee's father during his recent yisit to Log'an will prevent a recurrence of this incident in the . future . It is not hard to desig'n the Illative of ~Iiss McKay in being here. EYen Student Life has been able to recognize in h~r the fact that actions speak louder than words. Professor \ \ ' ood ward will live long in the memory of the school by reason of his conduct with relation to certain other me111 bers of the faculty.
Of Professor Thatcher it must be said that IJeople who live in g'lass houses oug'ht not to throw stones. Only last week he complained of the imperfection of bandmel11bers, because of the period of practices be.ing broken into so often by chaoel. As an unimportant reason he said too that there was some lack of ability among members. Lest I slight anyone . I must add that , -an \Yagener is the tallest man of us all. TIe it is that's to blame for all I haH said for is he not the power behind the chapel exercises J And finally . thanks for the lasting' memory of Professor Hendricks. he has g-iYen' us the most consoling" words of the year by pointing" a way whereby we might die without being ashamed. And from the same talk, I am sure all members of the faculty recei\"ed the comforting' acl\' ice, that he or she may die with a clear conscience after haying successfully conducted chapel exercises. 226

The Fruitless Search (Apologies to Poe.) Clad in sack cloth, A worthy Prof. In sunshine and in rain, Had journeyed long, Singing a song, In search of a senior brain.
II. nut he grew old. This professor bold, And in his heart a pain Grew, as he found Ko spot of ground. Produced a senior brain. 230
III. And as his strength Failed him at length, FIe met a pilgrim, plain. "Pilgrim," said he "'\\There can it be, "'\\' here is a senior brain?
IV. "Oyer the mountains Of the m0011, \\'here ne 'er has flown the cram', Ride, boldly ride," The pilgrim cried "If you seek a senior brain."
A Conversation "To come to the point," said the pencil, "vVhat do you think of this senior bunch any way?" "vVell to tell you the truth," answered the Trigonometry, "they have always treated me fine. I have served many seniors, but the ones this year have taken less from me than any previous cla"s. They are always flying off at a tangent." "I have been quite struck," remarked the match, "at their proficiency in avoiding work." "Do you know," observed the candle, "that 'an old flame of mine told me that these seniors have the lightest heads of any bunch yet." "Oh, you can't talk," interrupted the ruler, "I think I am straight when I say that your head is about as light as they make them." "Have you noticed," said the mucilage, "how stuck up some of them are? " "And what awful tempers some of them have," added the dinner box. "I ought to know because I carry their meals." "Children," admonished the writing desk, "If you can't speak good of a person, speak no ill. I must admit that little good can be said of the seniors, but in that case let's keep still. Besides one is coming this way." 'W hereupon they all lapsed into silence. 231

Diary of a Freshman 1F.!~9iPIiiiii'9'1
EPT. 13.-Arrived on the 8 :05 t.rain last night (it got in at about 10 o'clock I think, but no one seemed surprised) . and came right u p to the hotel. I was too tired to start my diary so put it off until to-night. Th is morning I got up at about half-past eight and went out for breakfast. Somehow it wasn't as nice as I expected, "eating out." :'IIoth er's coffee is lots better and I could hardly eat the fried eggs. Came back to the hotel and up to my room, but it looked cold and bare, so I went down stai rs again. I decided to write a letter to mother. Posted it, then wandered around town until dinner time. I hated to go out for dinner again but I was hungry, so decided to go. At dinner I met a nice fellow who sat at the same table I did. He was rather short and heavy, had a round jolly face and seemed interesting. He said his name was Tom Bereford. I heard the waiter call him "Stubbs." Told him my name was \\,instoll Churchill Barrington and he immediately called me "three in one.'~ I don't know whether I hked it or not. He asked me when I got in: Told him, "Last night.¡' \\That year I was? Freshman. If I had a boarding place. No. \\'hen I intended getting one? This afternoon Should we go together? Yes. He went on to say that this was his second year at the A. C. and he said he was "on" to the "swell" places in the "feeding" line and was willing to help me all he could. \\Te went out right after dinner and after walking our legs off, wearing out our patience and developing a remarkable appetite, we succeeded in finding a place to our liking. I\' e got rooms just across the hall from each other. They are quite nice rooms and they say the board is good. 'V/e had supper and I came to the hotel. It's ten o'clock now and I guess I will turn in, but the bed doesn't look very inviting. I get registered tomorrow. Sept. 14. I am installed at my new boarding place to-night . The first thing I did after breakfast was to have my trunk brought up . Then I came up myself and straightened things out. The room was already furnished, you know. Then I went up to the college and got registered. I don't like to say it in that matter of fact way. It sounds so easy, but it wasn't. I was rushed around from this room to that wrote out my family history and finally was informed that I was registered and told to repo rt to school the next morning. There was some consolation in the fact that there were others as green as I was: alld some hope in the consideration that next year I could go around with a confident step and superior airs . I came clown and had dinner and wrote a letter home this afternoon. Things seem to be coming alright. 233
WHICH COURSE?
Sept . 15. \Vent up to school today. Nothing new much. I spent the day in getting 111y classes located and watching other " green" students try to untangle the red tape. I met se\'eral nev" fellows. Stubbs and I had dinner at the cafeteria. Sept. 16. Classes are going alrigbt now. I have all my books and am getting acquainted. A rather funny incident happened in the faculty room today. One of the instructors, a small, pert little woman, w ith lots of reserve energy apparently, ,slipped and fell. She was up before anyone could reach her. Sept. 17. \\Then I got down this afternoon I found a letter from home. I was awfully glad to get it. I read it several times. \\'ben they called supper this evening somehow I didn't feel hungry so I didn't go down, I would like to see the folks tonight. Sept. 18, I received some valuable instruction from "Stubbs" today. It ran something this wayI.-If you have a class under Doctor Thomas get good marks in it and always attend. He is chairman of the attendance committee. 2.-Laugh at Dr. Ball's jokes. 3.-Get on the good side of Prof. Thatche r and get in the choir. -t.-Don't let "Pa" Caine see you talking in the halls . 5.-Don't talk ' loud in the library when the tall ::\liss Smith IS around. I intend to follow the advice. 234
Sept. 19. It's Sunday to-day and l\'c been away from home a I went to Sunday scheol \I'hole week. It has been awfully quiet . this morning. \Vhen I was going I called to ' "Stubbs" but he laId me to "close my head." He wasn 't up. This afternoon some fellows came in and we talked a while. I wrote a letter home this eyening. I expect I 'will get one tomorrow. Sept. 20. The meals were awful today. "Stubbs" has been cross and everything is wrong. I didn 't get my letter, Sept . 21. School again. \ \' e had a musical treat in chapel today, Prof. Thatcher, i-Irs. Sloan, Mrs. Linnartz and ;'Jr. \Yinsor sang. Sept. 22.
I think I will take drill.
Sept. 23. If what happened today had happened earlier I would ha\'e mentioned that I registered for French. Prof. :\rnold has been "ery good to us and I had begun to believe the stories I had heard about him were exaggerations. But I didn 't ha\'e my lesson today and-well I'm going to have it for tomorrow, that's all. I like the classcs though. They are certainly stimulating. Sept. 2-1-. ::\Iiss ::\Ieyer played in chapel today. cxcellent. I received my letter.
Thc musIc was
Sept . 2j. Today was student body meeting. Fred Brossard told us what we could expect in the way of dramatics, socials, and so forth . Song Leader Olson and Cheer Leader Shal'p aroused some college spirit. I begin to like school better. (
Sept. 28. Xothing happened ove r Sunday and Monday. \Vent to Sunday school as usual. "Stubbs" has found a nickname for me. He calls me "Church." Scpt. 29. \\'e had a violin treat in chapel today. Prof. Angermeyer played. \\'hen he appeared I asks "Stubbs" "\\' ho is the kid that is going to play the violin?" He told me. I will be more careful aftel this. I alll going to a student body dance tonight. Sept. 30. I had a glorious time at the dance last night. ::\Iet lots of new fellows and some swell girls. I've seen most of them at school before, but they were dressed up last night. ::\Jiss \\' illsbury is awfully nice. I talked with her a feyv minutes today. Oct. l. Another month has started. Think of it. I\'e been away from home nearly three weeks. \\' c had an enthusiastic student body meeting today. Oct. 2. Took a walk with ::\liss \\¡illsbury . I wonder why I didn't meet her before. \\' rote a letter home this e\'ening. Oct. 3. Sunday-Received a lctter from father. Awfully glad to gct it. In fact I needed it. Father's letters appeal to me , somehow. Oct, 4. Didn't ha\'e anything to do today so I turned the washer for the landlady. She', going to make some cake for tOlllorrow. 235
Oct. 5. I'm getting a little tired of the cafeteria. Oct. 6. Sluffed chapel today and talked with Laura. "Stubbs" calls it queening. Oct. 7. Had quite a day of it today. First, in chapel "Pa" Caine got up and gave us a talk on "Good Behavior/' One sentence seems to stick in my mind. "Now possibly you think this is none of my business, but I want to tell you that I\'e had a little more experience than you and I know some things you don't." "Stubbs" says it is his annual. Then our football team lined up on the rostrum and they certainly looked fine. They marched a good looking young fellow, called Van V\Tagner, up to act as mascot. Oct. 8. Tonight we had a hilarious time. \Ve had a shirt tail parade and a torchlight procession. I know mother would have been shocked, had she seen us. But we had a fine time and let the natives down town know that there 'w as going to be a footbal! game. Oct. 9. Of course we expected to be whipped, but then a defeat always makes us feel a little blue even if we don't admit it. The U. beat us 28 to O. Our boys put up a splendid fight tho and it was a dandy game. Today was annual sock day too. Everyone wore the brightest socks they could get and rolled their trousers up as high as possible. Some beautiful color schemes were worked out. The cheering squad also made its initial appearance ill> their white and blue vests. I took Laura to the game. Oct. 14. Dr . Thomas gave us a talk on drill-sluffers today. I'm giad I've been attending regularly. Oct. 15. Cnder able faculty instruction, assisted by Mr . \\"insor lessons in marching out of chapel were given. Rather foolish, it seems to me. Oct. 16. The Cniversity club gave a swell dance last night. I wasn't invited. Oct. 19. At last we are ready to believe the long talked of street railway will actually be installed. At ten o'clock this morning ground was broken for the track line. Vie went down as a school to help the work alon~ anc! to show the right spirit. Oct. 20. \Ve received news today that Captain Jack Paddock's mother hac! died. It made the wl' ole school feel blue. Jack left for home immediately. Football practice is discontinued for a few days. Oct. 23. \Ve had a most exciting football game today. The team \IS. the " :-\11 Star Christian Ilrithers." The coach, playing with the "Drithers," managed to hold out one half. Needless to say the first team won. Oct. 24. \\' e were treated to a great surprise in chapel todayProf. Pulley smiled. 236
Oct. 27. ~othing much happened at school. \l\1hen I got home I found a letter from mother, though. I wonder when father will write again? Oct. 28. vVe found out what is the most essential thing in this world, today, in chapel. Prof. Titus says "grass." Oct. 29. Laura and I were going walking today but it rained. I got father's letter this afternoon so we are going to the picture show. Oct. 30. 1\Jr. Dodge gave us some interpretations of Shakespeare in chapel, very exciting, to say the least. But when he came to "Casey at the Bat," well, Shakespeare wasn't in it. This afternoon we showed the sophs. their pmpcr place. Beat them 11-0 in a football game played in snow and sleet. The sophs. got sore but I don't blame them. It was a take down. Tonight ,ve are 80ing to have something doing. Oct. 31. \l\1e had a swell time last night in the College Gym. dancing and eating (a little.) The sophomores tried to get funny and stole our refresh men ts. Nov. 2. Dr. Thomas in Economics II told us today that 90 per cent of all the money a man earned went through the hands of his wife. Miss Jardine, sitting next to me said under her breath, "Heavens don't discourage the boys any more." Miss Crookston, when she heard it, looked at Dean and smiled confidently, not worried in the least. Nov. 3. Today the Second Years walloped the First Years in football to the tune of 10-2. It was an interesting game. I saw i~Iancock wandering through the Library today cuddling a doll and singing a lullaby. I asked what was the matter and "Stubbs" said "Kothing but a frat initiation." \"oolley and Fred Brossard were also initiated. Nov. 4. I wrote a letter home today. Xov.:l. \Ve play Fort Douglas football tomorrow. I think we will win. Nov. 6. Today's experiences have not been of the nature to instill one with pride for Uncle Sam's soldiers. This forenoon a bunch of lIS went to the station to meet the Fort's football team and their rooters. \1\1 e met them and we had to give them credit for being' a jolly bunch at least. The football team piled into hacks and were driven to their hotel while the rooters walked, or rather staggered to town. \Vhen time for the game came, about one~third of the nation's defenders were in jail, another third sleeping peacefully in sunny spots around the town and the remaining third managed to reach the college, much the worse for wear. If one could overlook the drooping cigarette. the tobacco juice oozing from the corners of their mouth and the flushed face, one would possibly be amused at their 237
OUR FOOT BALL STANDING 238
antics and at their enthusiastic cheering. The game itself was inter路 esting and the best part of it is that we won. Noy.9. Snow again today . ,\'inter will soon be here. X ov. 10. ,I" e had some lllusic. th e string quartette in chapel. It was fine. ::\fov. 11. The Buzzer people took charge of chapel. \\That is thi's Duzzer? I'm going to investigate. ~ov. 15. I\othing much has been happening lately until today when "Our Boys" met the ":-Jontana Aggies" in football. I'Ve weTe over confident. the field \\'as slippery and as a result the game was not as good as was expected . The score was 0-0. r am going to the senior dance with Laura tonight . XOY. 16. The dance last night was swell and rather funny, too The dance had been going for some time and eV-:!:'f one was asking "\I' here are the seniors ?, when we heard a great noise outside and in came all the juniors leading or rather pushing, the seniors tied to a long rope. The seniors had lost their ties someway. After marching the indignant seniors around the hall once or twice the kind-hearted juniors released them. Today a great many of the seniors were "mad as sIn. They could not take a defeat gracefully. "Stubbs" told me it made him sick. IIe said that last year these seniors, who were then juniors. lured the senior girls out of their houses and stole them. keeping them from the annual senior hop. but when they get the taI5les turned on them they play the baby act. He said they were nothingl)l;t <l bunch of "sisseys.'路 ;\o\'. 19. :-frs. Susa Y. Gates ga\'e us a beautiful little talk in chapel today. ::\0\'.20. Think of it. In a few days I am going home for T~:anks , gw 111 g. 1 \\'onder \\'hat Laura will do oyer the holidays. ::\0\'.21. I ha\'e decided to go to the football game in Salt Lake and then home. ~o\' . 2-1-. \I' e had a Thanksgi\'ing talk in chapel today. Recei\路ed a letter from father this e\路ening. Salt Lake in the morning! Hurrah! );0\' . 2:;. Today has been full of pleasure and pain . \\ ' e ha;:-, a fine time coming down to Salt Lake on the train this morning, had a loyal but l'ather sorrowful time at the football game. they beat us 22-0, and then we had a hilarous time after the game. \lTell, Home tomorrow, Nov. 29. It seems rather hard to start school again. I hardly wanted to com e back at all. Laura hasn't got back yet. Dec. 1. The Dutch II students seem to, ha\'e "got theirs" today I saw Porter lea\'ing' class today with a smile of relief on his face. A . C. Coaly asked hi1l1 \"hat the joke was. "Oh. T just got out of Hades ,.. "Gad! but you travel some."
239
Dec. 2. "Stubbs" bent a pin and put it on a chair in the library today for some fellow to sit down on. A girl came in and sat on it before we could stop her. Instead of the expected scream she appeared as if nothing had happened. "Stubbs" face wore a look of relief. He looked gravely at me and said: "A girl sat down on a pin, And 10' she knew it not, For certain parts of her wer~ real And certain parts were not." Dec. 3. The Ag club monopolized chapel today. They marched up on the rostrum with red bandanas around their necks, coats off and carrots in their hands. A few of us from the gallery gave them a warm reception with sugar beets and potatoes No one was hurt, but seve ral windows were broken. Dec. 4. Prexie talked to us about "property destroyers" today. Strange to say we were aJI innocent. Dec. 7.

The Rules oj the College (With apologies to Rudyard Kipling.) K ow these are the rules of the college-as stern and as strict as the law; And the student that keeps them may prosper, but the student that breaks them shall fall. As the red tape encircling each shIffer, here and there quickly runneth each ruleFor the strength of the School is the Student and the strength of the Student the School. Cram daily from five until seyen: read deeply but ne\'e r too deep: And remember the night's for carousing: forget not in your classes to sleep. Keep peace with the Lords of the college-The Prexy. Pa Caine and the bunch: And trouble not Langton the silent. and 1110ck not the teacher of French. \Nhen class meets with cia s on the campus and neither will turn fr0111 the trail, Lie down till Prof. Thomas and Prexy come out and with fair words prevail. 248

THREE LITTLE DUTCH GIRLS 250
OH YOU SOROSIS!

251
The Buzzer Interviews Prof Arnold 13uzzer.-"Oh! Prof. Arnold ?" P rof. Arnold.-"Yes! \ \'hat can I do for you ?, n.-").Jy dear professor, I accidentally attended your class the ~Jther day. while searching amusement. and during the class period I heard you use the expression, 'The higher education is not for you,' no less than 50 ti meso Let me see I have it down here. Yes, 50 times to be exact. I don't mind telling you my dear sir, that I became imbued with the idea, became enthusiastic to li\'e the higher educai.ion, became filled with a d isgust for the common d ish washer and trench digger, and so I came here today to implore you to tell me how to acquire the higher education ." A.-"Oh! you flattah me." D.-"::\'ot at all, I assure you ." A.-"\Vell in the first place you must know things. Don't gue~~ at them. To acquire this valuable trait I shollld advise mem;:'Ilzing \\'ebster's Unabridged dictionary. After this if you have higher ambitions memorize the Encyclopedia Brittanica. It is yery valuable practice to repeat, upon retiring, some section of the d ictionary, starting with :\. say. and running through a letter each night for 26 night8 and then finishing the month with the glossary. "Possibly the most valuable quality that can be acquired, however. is the art of making people think you know things and to accomplish this several things must be done . "First you may draw upon what you learned from the dictionary by choo ing large and extraordinary words that no one understands and then appearing surprised when they ask for an explanation. "Second: Read Dryden, Pope, Swift and any other sharp-tongued writer possible and become i111 l)ued with a love for sarcasm . When you love sarcasm you will learn to use it and in time its use will be llnconscious . Then you are indeed approaching the ideal. "Third: Appear always busy, bustle around, chop your words off so no one can understand you, boil over in fact . Trot here and there. appear out of patience if anyone makes a mistake or forgets something. Impress upon people that you are infallible. "Lastly: Let me impress th is upon you : to haYe the higher education you do not have to be scholarly nor haye depth of mind or character. If you have a quick mind, a ready tongue and a smattering of wit you are perfectly qualified." B.-"And could you give me an example of a person thoroughly representing the higher education?" (Here Prof. Arnold began to sputter and jump around and the Buzzer repl-esentatiYe thought hest to fly .) 252
The :Buzzer Interviews Miss Cooper (Rap-tap-tap) . (Voice inside.)
"Come."
(The Buzzer representative quietly opens the door). :,Iiss Cooper.-"Did you wish to see me ?" 13uzzer.-"1 wanted to see :,Jiss Cooper." Cooper.-"1 am she." lJ.- 1-ah-wanted to inten'iew you, :,liss Cooper." 00

Let us not
13._oo Oh! As you wish. 13ut what 1 most wished to speak to you about, :\liss Cooper, is marriage. Do you belie\'e in :,[arriage?" c.-"j\' ot as that institution is conducted Cit present. There are too many, far too many young girls and young men that ne\"er get married at all under present conditions."
B.-"Yes.
1 realize that, but are there not reasons?"
C.-"Reasons should have nothing to do with it. :\Iarriage should be enforced," B.-"But ha\"e you any plan by which this can be effected?"
c.-"r ha\'e, but I do not care to disclose it until we suffragettes are in power." B.-"Then you are a suffragist ?, C.-"That is my religion and 1 don't belie\"e any woman should marry until she has enough money to support at least one husband. Good-day." n.-"Good-day." 253

n.-"'"
ell. to be brief, how can a person make a successful public
speaker )"
P.-"""ell. let us start at the beginning. First choose a gooe! subject. It should be intere ting, neither too narrow nor too broad. LOO decp nor tav shallow, too racy or too tamc. in fact it Illust ha\'c :leither too Illuch nor too little of anything·.·· B.-··I see ." P.-"Then you must thoroughly master your subject. For instance suppose you choose as a topic. ' \' "h)' e!oes a hen lay an egg?' By the way, that being a scicntific subject it should be discussed with only scientific people. First, then. you must investigate the history o f the chicken. You 111ust determine which came first. the chici<en or the egg. You ll1ust read E111ma Goldman on the subject. You Illllst i nten-ie w Prof. Larsen. You IllUst read thc Encycloped ia I3rittanica. In fact nothing must be omitted. Then, when you have secured in this manner all of the available material. carefully fold it up, place it inside your hat and leaye it there a weck allowing it to soak in. rinally. go ane! ask :\[r. Turpin. after which you Illay prepare your speech. "You are now ready to prescnt your article. I can only mention the most essential things here and expericnce will teach you the rest. " Change socks before appcaring before an audienc~. Xe\"er go in with out a coat on anel I think it is as well to comb your hair. although authorities differ on that point. If you use notes and the paper is white it is better to have you r hands clean. But try and do without hclp from paper. :\Jake the people think your effort is extemporaneous. Start out-"Vhen I was asked a few minutes ago by :\11'. - - to address you-.' " "I think if you do these things, if you make a good selection of subject, master it thoroughly, correctly present your speech and haye an audience that enjoys your efforts-I think under those conditions you may succeed." D.-"Thank you -Gooel-day." P.-"Good-elay." 255

The Buzzer Interviews Miss ./ Huntsman B.-"Good-day-Do you object to being interviewed from a purely statistical standpoint, ~Iiss Huntsman -: ::\othing personal." H.-":t\'ot at all.' B.-"\Vell, to begin, you were born-?" H.-"Yes, I was born." B.-"I beg your pardon. \"hat I meant to say was '\\' here were you born?' " H.-"Why-er-you know-really is it essential?" B.-"Absolutely, I assure you. Boston?" H ,-"No-o. In fact I was really born in the

You won't care?"
B.-"Not if you don't bite." H.-(Whispers in his ear). B.-"Wellsville!! !" H.-(Smiling sadly.) "Yes, Wellsville, but pray don't tell anyone." B.-"l\Iy heart is rather weak and the shock has somewhat upset me. ~I ay I ask now when you were born?" H.-"Are you sure your heart can stand it?" B.-"Oh! That's right. Let me call tomorrow-I will be strongel then." H.-"Certainly-Good-day." B.-"Good-day. (Muttering) Wellsville--and I thought-well you never can tell." 257
The Buzzer Interviews Prof Hogenson Buzze r.-"Prof. Hogenson?" Prof.-路路 Yes ." B u zzer.-"If yo u a re not busy. P rofessor, I shou ld like a few I.linutes路 conve rsation w ith you. Prof.-"Certai nl y. I have a few minutes. :'1r.

The Battle of Gettysbu rg. \\ "e ll you know that battle ,yas fought-" Buzze r.-"But Professor I \Vho mentioned the battle of Gettys" burg? I want to talk with you about your hobby-gardening." Prof.-Oh. yes. That is my h obby." Buzzer.-"To be brief, how would you plant a garden?" Prof.-'路::\fow let me see. First-yes first you must get your garden. I thi nk aut horities will uphold me in that statement. No\" the selection of a spot of g ro und for a gard en is of upmost importance. Choose a fashionable spot w ith a good reputation. It should be a rectangular in shape, never circular. Circles are all right in' their sphere but their sphere is not the garden. If you haye not enough money to secure a first class garden spot, mo rtgag'e your first crop and raise it. Raise the money. I mean, but you should also raise the crop. "\\ ' c will now suppose that a suitable garden spot has heen secured. You would naturally think that the next logical step would he to plant it, would you not? I say that is what you would suppose." Buzzer.-";\oW, Professor, if that is not the next logical step pray what is?" Prof.-"But it is the logical step and I will now tell you how to proceed . Dorrow a plow from one neighbor. a horse from another and another's boy and plow the garden. Then you may comb it with a harrow. ::\fext, using a hand plow or a hoe, make furrows the long 258
way of the ground. Then you will discover that you have forgotten to buy any seed. Immediately borrow fifty cents from your wife and send down town for some . By the time you get it your furrows will be dried out so you must fill them up and make new ones. You may then plant your garden. Be careful h ere, not to mix the seed unless you want unusual results. For instance you might plant peas, beans and corn together and raise succotash. You might plant some egg· plant along with some wheat and raise egg sandwiches. :\ulllerOl1~ opportunities are thus open to the clever gardener . However. for cOl11mon everyday gardening. keep the seeds separate. ··That, I believe. co\·ers the subject, ·I-Jow to plant a garden.· Fiye dollars please." Buzzer-"Five Dollars .

Young College Men Lay particular stress upon the "strikingness" of their clothes. When we say "strikingness" we do not mean "loudness"; we mean "impressiveness" . "SAM PECK CLOTHES" are made impressive by their distinct styling, their fascinating fabrics and the skillful manner in which they have been built. The best tailors in America live in New York, and these are the tailors who construct "SAMPECK CLOTHES." If you are a college, business or professional man the perfect poise and lack of noise in "SAMPECK CLOTHES" cannot but strike you. Come and look.
