To    the   President    of    Lebanon    Valley    College, 

REV.    LAWRENCE  KEISTER,    D.D., 

equally    beloved    because  of    his    eminence    of    scholarship    and 

for    his    delightful    Christian    character 

this    Bizarre    is    dedicated    by    the  Class    of     1909.

Biography 


EV.  LAWRENCE  KEISTER,  D.D.,  was  born  near  Scottdale,  Pa., 
the  youngest  child  of  a  large  family.  His  father  was  Solomon 
Keister,  the  impress  of  whose  fine  personality  and  beautiful  Christ- 
ian character  is  seen  in  all  of  his  children.  He  was  a  spiritual  father, 
to  many  others  who  came  in  contact  with  him;  and  many  young  men  have 
been  helped  by  his  sweet  spirit,  kindly  admonition  and  generous  material 
help.  His  large  benefactions  knew  no  partiality  in  the  work  of  his  chosen 
church. 

The  son  had  the  good  fortune  to  be  brought  up  on  the  farm  ;  and  he 
shared  all  the  benefits  that  are  incident  to  such  open  air  life.  His  early 
training  was  secured  in  a  country  school,  which  he  attended  until  he  com- 
pleted all  that  this  school  offered.  This  was  supplemented  by  reading  and 
private  study,  the  value  of  which  he  early  learned. 

In  the  fall  of  1877  he  entered  Otterbein  University,  and  graduated  in 
the  class  of  '82.  The  following  autumn  he  entered  the  School  of  Theology 
of  Boston  University,  from  which  he  graduated,  with  second  honors,  in  the 
spring  of  18S5.  He  also  studied  philosophy  under  Prof.  Borden  P.  Brown 
at  this  University.  He  has  been  honored'  with  the  following  degrees:  B.S., 
Otterbein;  A.B.  and  A.M  ,  Leander  Clark;  S.T.B.,  Boston  University;  D.D. 
Lebanon  Valley. 

During  the  years  spent  in  Boston  Dr.  Keister  made  the  acquaintance  of, 
and  came  into  fellowship  with,  Bishop  Phillips  Brooks,  whose  great  preach- 
ing, and  heart-to-heart,  fatherly  converse,  in  the  Bishop's  own  study,  have 
exercised  a  profound  influence  in  his  life. 

He  spent  two  years  and  eight  months  on  the  Pacific  Coast,  where  he 
visited  the  principal  cities  and  engaged  in  fruit  growing  for  over  two  years. 
But  such  could  not  be  his  life's  work,  for  his  talents  demanded  other  em- 
ployment; and  in  obedience  to  a  voice,  not  his  own,  he  returned  to  the  East 
and  took  up  the  work  of   the  pastorate   in  Allegheny  Conference     Here  he 


served  several  of  the  most  important  stations,  Wilkinsburg,  Scottdale  and 
Mt.  Pleasant.  From  the  last  named  he  was  elected  to  the  presidency  of 
Lebanon  Valley  in  June  1907. 

He  has  published  lectures  in  Homiletics  ;  the  Christian's  Calendar,  a 
vest  pocket  companion  containing  selections  from  the  Bible  and  the  writings 
of  men,  together  with  notes  of  interpretation  by  the  author.  It  is  designed 
to  give  daily  spiritual  furnishing  for  the  Christian;  also  a  small  volume  en- 
titled, Parables  for  the  People.  It  is  written  for  him  whose  citizenship  is 
in  the  kingdom  of  heaven,  and  is  a  guide  to  him  in  all  that  is  vital  in  his 
conduct  as  a  Christian  citizen.  It  presents  Christ  as  the  life  of  the  Christian 
and  as  his  ideal  in  conduct.  It  proves  to  be  most  helpful  to  him  who  strives 
to  be  perfect  as  the  Father  in  heaven  is  perfect. 

The  presidency  of  Lebanon  Valley  College  at  this  time  is  "a  great  oppor- 
tunity. It  is  such  because  of  conditions  that  have  root  in  the  past.  But  it 
is,  as  well,  a  great  responsibility.  Its  duties  are  tiresome  and  burdensome, 
and  no  small  man  can  measure  up  to  them.  And  yet  a  man — the  man- — 
has  been  found.  Too  big  to  use  any  position  he  has  ever  held  for  his  per- 
sonal advancement,  and  modest  and  generous  to  a  fault,  he  at  last  finds 
himself  where  at  the  call  of  duty,  he  shows  himself  capable  of  working  out 
the  solution  of  an  untoward  situation. 

The  recently  equipped  laboratories,  the  new  walks  and  other  improve- 
ments, the  peace  and  quiet  of  a  very  successful  year,  a  contended  and  loyal 
student  body,  an  enlightened  and  more  interested  constituency  and  large 
plans  for  the  future  that  meet  with  favor  from  all  who  hear  of  them,  and 
more  beside,  all  attest  the  wisdom  of  the  choice  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  in 
June  1907. 


Foreword 


t      EST    we    forget       the    pleasantries    of 
youth    and      college     days,      and    to 


crystallize  the  unconscious  word  and 
deed,  which  otherwise  would  be  lost 
to  us  in  the  future,  we  have  pre- 
pared this  Bizarre  as  the  contribution  of  the  class 
of  1909  to  the  writen  history  of  student  life  at 
Lebanon  Valley. 

We  send  our  book  to  our  readers  without  apology 
as  the  result  of  our  best  effort  to  make  an  annual 
worthy  of  our  class  and  our  college.  We  make  no 
qlaim  of  entire  originality,  but  cordially  acknow- 
ledge and  thank  editors  of  other  classes  and  colleges 
for  valuable  hints  and  advice. 

If  our  friends  are  pleased  and  college  spirit 
intensified  we  shall  be  amply  rewarded  for   our   work.

OUR   COLLEGE 

And  here's  my  pledge  to  L.  Y.  C. 
My  measure  full,  my  offring  free. 

Let  all  these  halls  with  life  abound, 
Joyous  and  thoughtful  and  profound. 
Let  merry  laughter  ring  again, 
From  lips  of  maidens  and  of  men  ; 
While  serious  thought  finds  serious  speech, 
From  lips  of  taught  and  those  who  teach. 

Arise,  thou  Star  of  L.  V.  C. 
Shine  out  with  greater  brilliancy, 
Illuminate  the  min  1,  the  soul  ; 
Make  human  thoughts  to  us  unroll  ; 
And  thoughts  divine  our  hearts  impress 
While  Christ  our  Lord  each  heart  shall  bless. 

So  here  we  pledge  ourselves  to  thee, 
Thou  undimmed  Star  of  L.  Y.  C.

History  of  the   College 

REVIOUS  to  the  year  1865  there  was,  in  intelligent  circles  of  the 
United  Brethren  Church  considerable  discussion  on  the  need  of  a 
higher  educational  institution  in  eastern  territory.  Hence  in  res- 
ponse to  the  very  general  and  growing  desire,  frequently  expressed 
by  both  the  laity  and  the  ministry,  the  East  Pennsylvania  Annual  Confer- 
ence at  its  session  in  March,  1865,  held  at  Lebanon,  passed  resolutions 
deciding  to  establish  such  an  institution  of  learning  in  some  conveniently 
located  town  within  the  limits  of  the  Pennsylvania  Conference.  One  year 
later,  namely  March  1866,  the  Conference  accepted  for  this  purpose  the 
grounds  and  building  of  what  was  then  known  as  the  Annville  Academy. 


LADIKS     IioKMIToKY 


At  the  Annual  Conference  session  held  at  Annville  March  1867,  the 
Board  of  Trustees  was  given  full  power  to  purchase  additional  ground  and 
to  erect  thereon  an  addition  building.  This  building  as  planned,  included 
a  large  refectory  with  kitchen  and  other  culinary  attachments  on  the  ground 
floor,  a  large  chapel,  a  president's  office,  reception  room  and  four  recitation 
rooms  on  the  first  floor;  recitation  and  dormitory  rooms  on  the  second  floor, 
and  dormitory  rooms  on  the  third  floor.  This  building  was  completed  in 
1868,  and  the  first  regular  commencement  exercises  occurred  in  the  chapel 
of  this  building  on  the  sixteenth  day  of  June,  1870,  on  which  occasion  two 
gentlemen  and  one  lady  were  graduated.  Very  early  the  practice  in  public 
oratory  and  debate  was  recognized  on  all  sides.  With  a  full  recognition  of 
these  facts  the  young  men  of  the  College  were  not  slow  to  secure  an  organi- 
zation to  accomplish  these  ends.  Early  in  April,  soon  after  the  opening  of 
the  spring  term  of  1S67,  a  constitution  and  by-laws  for  a  society  were 
drafted.  The  name  Philokosmian  was  suggested  by  President  Vickroy,  then 
the  President  of  the  College.  The  Philokosmian  thus  ranks  as  the  first 
regularly  organized  literary  society  of  the  College. 


BOYS  "DORMITORY 

President  Vickroy  wisely  directed  the  affairs  of  the  institution  for  five 
years.  He  was  a  man  of  fine  presence,  a  genial  companion,  a  first  class 
financier  and  a  successful  administrator  of  the  affairs  of  the  College. 

In  1S71  Prof.  Lucian  Hammond  was  elected  president  of  the  College. 

During  his  administration  the  Clionian  Literary  Society  was  founded. 
This  society  consisted  entirely  of  girls  and  soon  became  a  vigorous  and 
efficient  force  in  promoting  the  principles  and  practice  of  public  reading  and 
speaking. 

In  the  summer  of  1876  new  life  was  infused  into  the  College  by  the 
election  of  Rev  David  DeLong  as  president.  During  the  winter  of  1S77  a 
movement  was  started  to  organize  another  literary  society  for  young  men. 
The  name  Kalozetean  Literary  Society  was  suggested  and  accepted.  Also 
during  Pres.  DeLong's  administration  the  musical  department  was  organized 
and  a  regular  course  established.  The  organization  of  this  department  was 
a  wise  movement  as  is  evidenced  at  this  day,  and  its  excellent  work  at  once 
popularized  the  institution. 

In  the  summer  of  1883  a  large  two-story  frame  building  was  erected  on 


-12— 


College  Avenue,  which  contained  a  fine  and  well  lighted  art  room,  several 
music  rooms  for  practice,  the  entire  department  of  natural  scieoce,  and  the 
College  library. 

In  the  fall  of  1887  Rev.  Edmund  S.  Lorenz  was  elected  President. 
During  his  administration  a  course  for  advanced  post  graduate  work  was 
prepared  and  adopted  by  the  Board  of  Trustees.  To  him  also  belongs  the 
credit  of  establishing  a  College  paper  known  as  "  The  College  Forum." 

In  the  spring  of  1S89  Rev.  Cyrus  J.  Kephart,  D.D.,  was  elected  Presi- 
dent. He  served  but  a  single  year.  Because  of  some  discouraging  condi- 
tions at  this  time  the  question  of  re-locating  the  College  was  seriously 
considered  but  nothing  came  of  it.  Dr.  E.  Benjamin  Bierman  was  elected 
to  the  Presidency.  He  had  been  connected  with  the  College  since  its 
founding  and  his  administration  shows  an  interest  and  faithfulness  which 
did  much  toward  building  up  the  College.  During  this  time  the  college 
celebrated  its  twenty-fifth  anniversary  and  showed  marked  improvement. 

Dr.  Bierman  was  succeeded  in  1897  by  Dr.  Hervin  U.  Roop,  who  held 
the  office  until  January,  1906.  During  this  term  the  entire  college  changed 
its  appearance.  In  1900  a  large  wing  was  added  to  the  main  building. 
The  Engle  Conservatory  of  Music,  the  gift  of  Mr.  B.  F.  Engle,  a  life-long 
friend  of  the  institution,  was  furnished  in  1899.  In  1904 — '05  the  College 
received  a  gift  from  Mr.  Andrew  Carnegie,  a  beautiful  library  building. 

The  foundation  for  a  new  Ladies'  Dormitory'  was  being  laid  when  early 
in  the  evening  of  December  24,  1904,  fire  broke  out  in  the  main  building 
and  quickly  destroyed  it.  This  was  a  terrible  blow  to  the  college  but 
through  the  untiring  efforts  of  the  President  and  others  the  winter  term 
was  delayed  only  a  week.  By  the  next  school  year  the  new  ladies'  dormi- 
tory was  occupied  and  a  few  months  later  the  men  went  into  their  new 
dormitory.  A  new  administration  building  was  also  under  roof  by  the  close 
of  the  year  1905. 

From  January  to  March,  1906  the  Executive  Committee  and  faculty 
managed  the  affairs  of  the  College  when  Rev.  A.  P.  Funkhouser  was  elected 
President  holding  the  position  but  one  year.  On  June  12,  1907  Dr.  Law- 
rence W.  Keister  assumed  the  duties  of  President.  In  September  of  this 
year  the  Administration  Building  was  occupied  giving  much  pleasure  with 
its  pleasant  recitation  rooms  and  well  equipped  labratories.  It  also  contains 
the  President's  and  Treasurer's  offices,  the  Philokosmian  Literary  Society 
Hall  and  a  large  art  room.

Fair  autumn  days  are  past  and  o'er, 

But  never  a  care  have  we  ; 
For  we  fill  the  hours  with  the  richest  lore, 

In  the  halls  of  L.  V.  C. 

Cold  winter  winds  will  come  and  go, 

Yet  never  a  care  have  we  ; 
The  joys  of  learning  keep  our  hearts  aglow, 

In  the  halls  of  L.  V.  C. 

Sweet  Spring  will  smile,  then  step  aside, 

Still  never  a  care  have  we  ; 
Perennial  Spring  must  ever  abide, 

In  the  halls  of  L.  V.  C. 

The  voice  of  Summer  will  scatter  us  far, 

Still  never  a  care  have  we  ; 
For  there's  naught  on  earth  can  our  hearts  debar

Our    College 

To  Lebanon  Valley 

O  college  ever  noble, 

O  college  ever  free, 

May  all  thy  sons  be  willing 

To  do  their  best  for  thee  ! 

The  light  of  God  is  o'er  thee, 
His  spirit  in  thy  breast ; 
From  thee  the  earth  has  blessing 
And  hope  for  its  oppress. 

No  worthy  aims  go  begging 
For  aid  beside  thy  door, 
Without  receiving  plenty 
From  out  thy  lavish  store. 

Thy  sons  will  long  remember 
Thy  loyalty  to  right, 
And  with  thine  inspiration 
For  truth  will  keep  the  fight. 

O  college  ever  noble, 
O  college  ever  free, 
Thine  every  son  is  willing 
To  do  his  best  for  thee.

History 


UST  when  "  I  ain't  got  time  "  and  when  "  I've  got  too  much  work  " 
I  must  write  this  history.  But  it  is  not  hard,  for  1908  has  been  a 
unique  aggregation  since  its  Freshman  year.  We  were  told  then  by 
a  speaker  in  chapel  that  we  might  be  lawyers,  doctors,  college  presi- 
dents or  hod  carriers.  And  so  we  may;  we  have  not  decided  yet.  There 
were  a  score  of  us  then  and  we  spent  most  of  our  time  making  history.  In 
19 — ,  when  we  return  leading  some  '08  Juniors  by  the  hand,  first  of  all  we 
will  take  them  to  the  athletic  field,  and  pointing  to  the  gridiron,  we  will  say 
"  right  there  in  1904  occurred  one  of  the  biggest  surprise  parties  that  ever 
took  place  at  Lebanon  Valley  College.  We  had  challenged  1907  to  a  foot- 
ball game.  They  accepted.  We  prepared  for  that  game  as  if  we  were  go- 
ing to  play  Yale  ;  the  Sophomores  prepared  for  it  as  if  they  were  going  to 
play  Annville  High  School.     The  score  was  29-0,  in  our  favor." 

Besides  the  football  game  we  defeated  '07  in  basket  ball.  In  Junior 
year  we  won  three  inter-class  games.  From  Freshman  year  we  have  an  un- 
broken string  of  seven  victories.  In  Sophomore  year  we  won  the  inter-class 
debate  from  '09.  In  Junior  year  we  published  an  annual  of  which  we  are 
all  proud.  We  will  always  remember  the  sleigh  ride  to  Campbellstown  in 
our  Freshman  year,  the  fake  banquet  in  our  Sophomore  year,  and  the  real 
one  at  the  Lochiel  in  Harrisburg. 

These  have  been  some  of  our  material  achievements,  but  we  have  also 
advanced  mentally  and  spiritually  and  this,  also,  is  a  part  of  our  history. 

One  of  the  things  we  have  learned  beyond  the  chance  of  forgetting  is 
the  value  of  the  ideal.  We  have  learned  that  the  charm  and  greatness  of 
life  lie  in  the  grandeur  of  its  possibilities.  Every  new  stnd'y  has  taught  us 
this.  We  have  learned  to  require  of  a  man  only  that  he  live  for  the  ideal. 
He  may  have  failings,  he  may  oppose  lis,  we  may  understand  him  but  if  he 
is  a  constant  seeker  of  the  ideal  we  give  to  him  B+  in  the  school  of  life, 
where  no  one  makes  an  A.  This  we  hope  we  have  learned,  as  also  the  great 
lesson  of  charity.  In  the  class  of  social  spirit,  of  class  spirit  and  of  individ- 
ual competition  we  have  come  to  believe  that  there  is  so  much  bad  in  the 
best  of  us  and  so  much  good  in  the  worst  of  us  that  it  does  not  behoove  any 
of  us  to  be  talking  about  the  rest  of  us. 

Last  of  all  we  have,  we  hope,  formed  a  loyal  college  spirit.  We  do  not 
picture  our  Alma  Mater  as  a  groupe  of  buildings,  a  faculty,  a  curriculum  and 
a  student  body,  but  as  a  spiritual  something  representing  all  that  is  best 
and  finest  in  all  these.  To  this  Alma  Mater  may  we  always  be  true  and 
though  we  mav  soon  be  forgotten  may  we  never  forget.

1908  POEM. 


Our  college  days  will  soon  be  o'er, 
Fond  mem'ries  soon  they'll  be, 
But  ever  in  our  hearts  we'll  hold 
Our  love  for  L.  V.  C. 

"  Ad  Omnia  Parati  "  has 

Our  motto  ever  been, 

"  Prepared  for  all  things"  in  our  life 

And  all  our  battles  win. 

When  on  the  world's  vast  sea  afar, 
Our  thoughts  shall  turn  to  thee, 
Thou  who  hast  been  our  guiding  star, 
Thou  dear  old  L.  V.  C. 

Amid  the  trials  of  daily  task, 
Amid  the  toil  and  din  and  strife, 
Will  come,  with  never  failing  cheer, 
The  thoughts  of  college  life. 

O  Alma  Mater,  ever  true 
To  thy  dear  name  we'll  be  ; 
We'll  do  our  work  with  earnest  zeal, 
In  honor  of  L.  V. 

O  college,  thou  to  us  most  dear, 
To  thee  we'll  faithful  be  ; 
And  in  our  future  life's  career, 
Revere  old  L.  V.  C. 

And  always  will  we  do  our  best, 
Inspired  by  thy  light, 
We'll  stand  for  loyalty  and  truth, 
For  charity  and  right.

Albert  D.  Flook,   P.L.S. 
Myersville,  Md. 

"  Adam  ",  business  manager  of 
the  Bizarre,  who  alphabetically  at 
least,  stands  at  the  head  of  his  class, 
claims  Myersville,  Md.,  as  his  birth- 
place and  undoubtedly,  sometime  in 
the  coming  years,  the  claim  will  be 
reciprocated.  This  gentleman  says 
he  worked  on  a  farm,  which  statement 
we  are  inclined  to  doubt,  altho  his 
actions  bear  ample  testimony  that  he 
at  least  resided  there. 

It  is  a  source  of  undying  regret  that 
he  professedly  prefers  the  society  of 
Hershey  and  Lebanon  to  that  of  our 
own  institution.  After  graduation, 
if  such  a  thing  is  possible,  he  will 
with  judicious  moderation  pursue  a 
course  in  medicine. 


Lena  May  Hoerner,  C.L.S. 
Mechanicsburg,  Pa. 
Lena  May  Hoerner  was  born  in  the 
country  and  lived  there  until  six  years 
ago,  when  she  moved  to  Mechanics- 
burg, her  present  home.  May  is  the 
smallest  girl  in  the  class  but  the  most 
rapid  walker.  She  belongs  to  the 
Students  Volunteer  Band  and  has  very 
many  qualities  which  fit  her  for  her 
chosen  caieer.  Her  greatest  fault  is 
her  quick  temper,  but  we  believe  that 
she  will  have  conquered  that  before 
she  becomes  a  "  Stray-er  "  and  wanders 
from  her  own  land  into  the  foreign 
country  to  teach  the  poor  heathen 
how  thev  should  live. 


George  Nissley  Hoffer,  K.L.S. 
Hummelstown,  Pa. 
This  young  man  first  beamed  upon 
the  world  at  Hummelstown.  George  is 
a  mathematical  genius.  He  builds  au- 
tomobiles, repairs  Prof.  Roeder's  bi- 
cycle and  studies  chemistry.  Between 
laboratory  periods  he  visits  some  of  the 
class  rooms  and  hears  the  recitations. 
We  regret  very  much  to  record  that 
his  entire  social  career  has  been  one 
vast  case  of  "  sour  grapes.  "  Georgie 
is  one  of  the  most  popular  fellows  in 
the  institution  and  in  spite  of  the  afore- 
said case  of  sour  grapes  he  belongs  to 
the  "triumvirate"  of  social  dictators. 
When  his  work  at  school  is  done  he 
will  retire  at  last  to  Hummelstown, 
build  a  garage  and  devote  his  talents 
to  the  invention  of  a  patent  convey- 
ance to  transport  his  native  village  to 
some  habitable  portion  of  the  earth. 


Grace  B.  Lowery,  CL.S. 
Harrisburg,  Pa. 
Miss  Lowery  comes  to  us  from  the 
Harrisburg  High  School,  class  of  '06. 
Soon  after  reaching  L,.  V.  C.  and  hav- 
ing tried  the  Freshman  class,  she  de- 
cided that  she  could  take  the  work 
here  in  three  years,  so  entered  the 
class  of  '09.  She  shows  a  decided  in- 
clination to  be  much  alone  to  study, 
think  and  dream  She  has  a  few  pet 
"  hobbies  ",  such  as,  English  and  Ger- 
man and  delights  in  arguing  about 
"  personality  "  and  all  its  interesting 
phases.  Her  father  hopes  she  will 
follow  a  literary  career  and  we  hope 
she  will  not  disappoint  him  for  she 
has  much  ability  and  can  do  splendid 
work  once  she  is  fully  determined  to 
do  it. 


Amos  B.  Moyer,  P.L.S. 
Sunbury,  Pa. 

Mr.  Amos  B.  Moyer  was  born  at 
Chapman.  He  requested  that  this 
fact  be  carefully  recorded  so  that 
if  any  of  his  family  read  this  book 
they  will  know  that  even  now,  when 
he  is  a  Junior  in  college,  he  is  not 
ashamed  to  acknowlege  his  birthplace. 
After  budding  the  young  ideas  of  that 
region  for  about  fifteen  years  he  was 
persuaded  to  come  to  Lebanon  Valley 
to  instruct  the  faculty  of  this  institu- 
tion. l'Aby"  possesses  a  remarkable 
propensity  for  absurd  interrogation. 
The  minimum  number  of  questions 
which  he  has  propounded  in  one  reci- 
tation is  nineteen. 

After  graduation  "A.B."  will  proceed 
directly  to  a  seat  on  the  supreme 
bench. 

George  M.  Richter,  K.L.S. 
Halifax,  Pa. 

This  reverend  gentleman  was  born 
at  Halifax.  He  literally  hurls  himself 
into  any  proposition  which  chances 
to  attract  his  attention  in  a  way  cal- 
culated to  put  an  indolent  minded 
person  into  the  psychopathic  ward. 
This  may  to  a  certain  extent  atone  for 
his  eagerness  to  assist  or  rather  to  sug- 
gest, otherwise  we  might  be  tempted 
to  class  him  under  the  vulgar  head 
of  a  "Butter  In." 

Mr.  Richter  is  a  rare  addition  to  the 
class  because  of  the  fact  that  he  is 
never  mistaken.  Time  and  time  again 
the  Professors  would  have  gone  far 
wrong   but   for    this   precious    mind. 

After  graduation  he  will  attend 
a  theological  seminary  until  sufficient- 
ly cargoed  for  sky  piloting.

Walter  V.  Spessard,  P.L.S. 
Chewsville,  Md. 

Mr.  Spessard  woke  up  one  fine 
morning  and  said  "  I  will  see  to  it  that 
this  world  is  run  on  strictly  business 
principles,"  whereupon  Mr.  Spessard's 
body  started  to  catch  up  to  his  matur- 
ed mind. 

Mr.  Spessard  hails  from  a  family 
with  which  it  is  as  natural  to  sing  as 
it  is  for  a  mule  to  bray.  This  may,  to 
a  certain  degree,  account  for  Mr.  Spes- 
sard's social  standing  for  Walter  is,  as  it 
were,  a  lion  at  the  Ladies'  Hall  and 
always  starring  among  the  ladies.  After 
the  completion  of  his  course  Mr. 
Spessard  may  be  induced  to  accept  the 
Presidency  of  one  of  the  larger  univer- 
sities or  else  a  seat  in  the  U.  S.  Senate. 


J.  Warren  Stehman,  K.L.S. 
Mountville,  Pa. 
Jonas  ws.s  born  near  Mountville, 
Lancaster  County,  Pennsylvania, 
the  land  flowing  with  tobacco  and 
politicians.  Stehman  believes  in 
innate  ideas  and  innate  abilities  for 
he  says  he  remembers  very  distinctly 
that  when  he  landed  he  had  firmly 
gripped  in  his  right  hand  a  suit  case 
Containing  his  batting  average,  but 
somewhere  thru  his  journey  he  has 
lost  it.  His  pet  theory  is  that  man  in 
all  his  actions  follows  the  line  of  least 
resistance.  So  earnestly  has  he  upheld 
this  doctrine  by  word  and  deed  that  he 
was  several  years  ago  honored  with 
the  degree  L.L.  (Lazy  Lew.)  He  will 
become  a  political  boss  of  Lancaster 
County. 


Deleth  Eber  Weidler,  P.L.S. 
Allentown,  Pa. 
Deleth  Eber  Weidler  was  born  at 
Highspire,  Pa.  He  is  a  very  nice 
young  man,  in  fact  he's  awfully  nice  ; 
he  doesn't  do  a  single  naught}-  thing. 
He  is  very  popular  too  and  is  a  mem- 
ber of  the  Triumvirate  of  Social 
Directors.  He  possesses  the  happy 
faculty  of  knowing  how  to  stand  in 
with  all  the  girls  without  indulging 
any  of  them.  He  takes  part  in 
every  enterprise  about  the  college  and 
is  continually  complaining  because 
there  are  not  more  competent  men 
around  the  institution  so  that  he 
wouldn't  have  to  do  everything. 
Weidler  is  the  editor-in-chief  of  this 
book  and  its  reception  will  go  a  great 
way  toward  shaping  his  destiny. 


Edna  Delilah  Yeatts,  CL.S. 
York,  Pa. 

Edna  Delilah  Yeatts,  commonly 
known  as  "  Peanuts,"  is  a  rare  product 
from  York  County.  She  is  small,  as 
her  nickname  would  suggest,  but  her 
womanly  qualities  are  capable  of  satis- 
fying the  most  aesthetic  desires  of 
any  of  her  opposite  sex. 

Edna,  it  is  sad  to  relate  is  very  fond 
of  sleep,  but  she  says  she  can't  help  it. 

We  all,  I  am  sure,  are  very  anxious 
to  see  Miss  Edna  get  along  in  the 
world,  but  to  our  deepest  chagrin  we 
sometimes  are  unable  to  tell  in  which 
direction  she  is  'Ap't  to  go.  However, 
with  all  our  uncertainty,  we  can  com- 
fortably say  that  she  has  lofty  ideals 
and  cares  mostly  for  the  big  things  in 
life.

History 


E,  the  Class  of  1909,  in  retrospection  wander  as  through  a  mirror- 
maze  in  attempting  to  recall  for  you  the  past  victories  and  suc- 
cesses which  have  crowned  our  class.  But  not  because  they  do 
not  linger  tenderly  in  our  memories  and  stand  out  prominently 
as  mementoes,  never  to  be  forgotten.  We  do  not  wish  to  impress  upon  you 
too  forcibly,  however,  that  little  word  "  ego  ",  but  desire  rather  to  give  you 
a  fair  picture  and  leave  you  to  judge  of  us  for  yourself. 

There  were  twenty-six  of  us  in  the  Freshman  year  and  probably  we 
were  a  little  green,  but  wise  enough,  however,  to  paint  our  numerals  on  the 
smoke  stack  where  nothing  but  time  could  efface  them.  The  Sophomore 
year  was  a  very  successful  one  in  its  literary  pursuits.  We  won  the  Fresh- 
man-Sophomore debate  which  brought  great  credit  to  the  class. 

Our  success  for  that  year  was  not  exclusively  along  literary  lines,  how- 
ever, for  Bobbie,  the  president  of  the  Freshman  class  was  adorned  gorgeous- 
ly in  green  one  morning,  and  laid  upon  the  platform  during  chapel  exercises, 
to  the  great  surprise  and  chagrin  of  his  class-mates. 

We  enjoyed  also  that  year  a  very  delightful  banquet  at  Wernersville. 
We  rode  away  one  Thursday  afternoon,  leaving  the  poor  Freshies  gazing  in 
our  direction  with  eager,  longing  eyes,  and  returned  Friday  noon  with  colors 
flying. 

While  gazing  at  this  picture,  we  would  have  you  remember  that  there 
were  a  few  failures  interspersed  among  our  successes,  but  they  only  gave  us 
more  ambition  to  strive  harder  to  reach  the  goal.  They  also  taught  us  the 
lesson  that  we  must  learn  before  entering  upon  our  life's  careeer  ;  that  true 
success  only  comes  with  struggle  and  hard  work.  In  leaving  you,  we  would 
paint  a  bright  picture  for  each  member  of  the  class  of  1909.  We  realize 
that  each  one  has  his  peculiar  talents  and  ambitions,  and  we  believe  that  he 
will  hew  out  for  himself  a  path  through  the  rock  of  harsh  criticism,  strife, 
and  competition,  along  his  own  special  line,  thus  developing  his  talents  to 
their  fullest  extent,  and  accomplishing  for  his  race  just  what  God  meant 
that  he  should  accomplish. 


1909  Poem 

Dear  1909,  'tis  thee  we  hail 

In  songs  of  earnest  praise, 
Dear  1909,  for  thee  we've  worked 

In  past  and  present  days. 

For  thee  we  lived,  for  thee  we  strove, 

Thy  name  we  raised  to  stars  above, 

To  thee  we  give  our  fondest  love, 
Dear  1909. 

Brave  1909,  with  numbers  few 

You've  fought  a  noble  fight. 
Brave  1909,  with  purpose  true 

You've  battled  for  the  right. 

Your  duties  just  ne'er  left  undone, 

Your  battles  fought,  your  victories  won, 

E'en  though  thy  life  is  but  begun 
Brave  1909. 

Brave  Brown  and  Blue,   three  years  thou'st  waved 

Above  this  loyal  band, 
Brave  Brown  and  Blue,  beneath  thy  folds 

We've  labored  hand  in  hand 

What  e're  the  future  has  in  store, 

Thy  motto  shall  we  ere  adore 

And  ever  love  thee  more  and  more, 
Brave  Brown  and  Blue. 

Dear  L.  V.  C,  Thee  we  would  sing 
Before  this  song  is  through, 

Dear  L.  V.  C,  whate'er  we  are, 
We  owe  it  all  to  you. 

Within  thy  walls  we've  worked  aud  dreamed, 
Our  purpose  steeled,  our  learning  gleaned, 
While  high  above  thy  torch  has  beamed 
Dear  L.  V.  C.

History 

O  write  the  history  of  the  class  of  "  1910"  is  no  easy  matter,  though 
it  is  the  history  of  two  short  years  at  Lebanon  Valley.  But  those 
two  years!  What  pleasant  times  and  glorious  victories  lume  up 
before  us  as  we  hurridly  glance  back  over  them.  And  it  is  recall- 
ing these  delightful  memories  which  shall  constitute  our  history.  Were  I, 
as  historian  of  the  class  of  1910,  to  attempt  to  mention  only  the  most  im- 
portant and  most  delightful  of  these  I  should  not  know  which  to  choose. 
Therefore,  I  shall  try  to  give  a  brief  but  just  review  of  our  Freshman  and 
Sophomore  years  at  Lebanon  Valley. 

Freshman  year  our  victories  greatly  outnumbered  our  defeats  as  might 
have  been  expected.  Our  very  first  victory  was  the  color  rush.  Such  a 
victory  was  never  seen  at  Lebanon  Valley  ;  every  Freshman  escaped  with 
his  colors  untouched.  There  were  also  the  foot-ball,  basket-ball  and  base- 
ball games,  the  former  of  which  the  Sophomores,  because  of  some  secret 
fear,  refused  to  play ;  all  these  are  indeed  to  our  honor.  The  Freshman- 
Sophomore  debate,  to  our  regret  but  by  no  means  to  our  discredit,  was  won 
by  the  Sophomores.  Nor  must  the  sleighing  party  to  Schaefferstown  be 
omitted;  for  so  great  was  the  delight  and  excitement  of  escaping  the  "Sophs" 
that  that  is  the  first  thing  we  think  of  when  the  ride  is  mentioned. 

Our  Sophomomore  year  was  just  as,  if  not  more,  successful  though  we 
were  no  longer  in  a  state  of  greenness.  As  in  the  preceding  year  the  game 
of  foot-ball  was  not  played  owing  to  some  inability  or  other  on  the  part  of 
the  Freshmen,  giving  us  the  victory.  The  bag  rush,  controlled  by  the 
Junior  and  Senior  Coucil,  was  our  first  defeat.  As  usual  the  Freshmen  won 
by  hard  fighting,  for  the  victory,  if  such  it  may  be  called,  was  by  a  small 
three  inches.  Although  we  prevented  the  Freshmen  from  gaining  other 
victories  ;  we  were  kind  enough  to  see  that  each  one  had  a  private  escort 
consisting  of  several  policemen,  whose  duty  was  to  see  that  they  arrived 
safely  at  their  banquet. 

One  more  thing  must  be  added  before  our  history  is  complete,  that  is 
our  banquet  at  the  Lochiel,  Harrisburg.  The  Freshmen  were  so  bewildered 
that  day  that  they  sought  us  just  where  we  were  not.  That  banquet  with 
its  innumerable  courses  shall  ever  be  remembered  as  the  most  delightful 
time  of  our  life  at  Lebanon  Valley  and  "  that  isn't  saying  much  either." 

Thus  far  our  life  at  L.  V.  C.  has  been  one  grand  success.  As  we  were 
able  to  overcome  our  greenness  and  to  rid  ourselves  of  the  so-called  "Soph" 
characteristics,  if  indeed  we  ever  had  any,  we  know  that  we  shall  live  up  to 
all  the  possibilities  of  our  Junior  year. 


1910  Poem 

Of  what  achievements  boasts  our  glorious  class, 
On  her  true  zeal  let  Future  judgment  pass  : 
Ambitious  youths  with  hearts  and  souls  afire, 
No  failures  daunt  them  and  no  labors  tire  : 
In  lithe-limbed  boys,  and  maidens  fair,  our  pride, 
Unwavering  zeal  strikes  every  foe  aside. 
No  joy  to  us  doth  wanton  pleasure  yield, 
Stern  duty  calls — all  hasten  to  the  field. 
Behold  our  victories  already  won, 
A  glorious  past,  the  future  but  begun. 
Beguiling  pleasure  spreads  her  charms  in  vain, 
To  arduous  tasks  we  bend  'till  none  remain. 
From  heights  of  fame  our  standards  proudly  wave, 
To  reach  our  goal  hard  battles  still  we'll  brave. 
Will  Father  Time  for  us  no  crowns  prepare, 
No  laurels  give  for  aged  heads  to  wear? 
Will  life  be  fraught  with  happiness  and  joy, 
Or  will  our  eagerness  those  boons  destroy  ? 
Our  friends'  esteem  and  children's  love  will  mould 
For  us  a  wreath  more  fair  than  crown  of  gold. 
And  daily  tasks  well  done  will  bring  reward 
Wherein  the  fruits  of  peace  and  joy  are  stored. 
Our  names  we'll  write  :  to  us  the  world  will  turn 
To  find  a  tiuth,  or  noble  lesson  learn.

History 


HE  Freshman  class  was  secretly  organized  early  in  the  year.  A 
Junior  called  us  together  in  the  old  Academy  building,  and  soon  we 
had  a  yell  and  a  motto.  We  gave  our  yell  for  the  first  time  at  the 
student's  reception,  and  distributed  printed  copies  of  it  to  all  present. 

It  was  on  the  night  of  the  reception  that  our  splendid  career  really  be- 
gan. The  Sophomores,  dumbfounded  at  seeing  some  Freshmen  accompany 
co-eds  home,  instantly  plagiarized  an  old  "  State  "  poster  and  pasted  samples 
of  it  in  a  few  prominent  places  in  town,  and  over  the  college  buildings.  But 
we  quietly  removed  the  posters,  except  those  on  the  college  buildings,  which 
the  Sophomores  themselves  humbly  removed,  and  the  next  morning  in  chapel 
we  distributed  cards  on  which  were  printed  our  sincere  regrets  that  the 
Sophomores  lacked  sufficient  gray  matter  to  compose  an  original  poster. 

One  night  we  very  unexpectedly  met  the  Sophomores,  who  were  schem- 
ing for  ■our  humiliation.  We  succeeded  in  dividing  their  party  and  after  a 
severe  fight  on  the  campus,  were  declared  victors. 

Next  we  met  the  Sophomores  in  the  bag-rush.  When  the  two  classes 
lined  up  on  the  gridiron,  they  seemed  very  evenly  matched.  However, 
when  after  fifteen  minutes  fighting  the  signal  was  fired  to  cease,  the  class  of 
Nineteen  Hundred  aud  Eleven  was  again  victorious. 

Soon  followed  our  banquet  at  the  Wallace  House,  Lebanon,  December 
3,  1907.  The  banquet  was  a  grand  success.  Only  two  of  our  members  were 
unable  to  attend,  one  of  them  being  sick.  One  thing  more  which  will 
amuse  us  in  the  years  to  come  :  the  Sophomores  gallantly  escorted  a  few  of 
us  to  the  hotel.  We  did  our  best  to  return  the  compliment  by  entertaining 
one  of  their  members  on  the  night  of  their  banquet. 

"  Ad  Astra  per  Aspera  "  has  been  continually  before  us  and  we  have 
determined  to  idealize  its  meaning.  We  realize  that  we  have  not  yet  reach- 
ed the  stars,  but  by  the  help  of  our  instructors,  believe  that  an  instrument 
has  been  made  in  the  form  of  the  class  of  Nineteen  Hundred  and  Eleven 
that  will  measure  the  distance  in  spite  of  all  obstacles.

1911     Poem 

With  loyal  hearts  and  active  minds, 
In  the  fall  of  Nineteen  Seven, 

We  came  to  thee,  dear  L.  V.  C, 
The  Class  of  Nineteen  Eleven. 

A  hearty  welcome  thou  didst  give, 
Of  course  there  was  a  reason  ; 

Thou  knewest  well  who  came  to  dwell, 
The  Class  of    Nineteen  Eleven. 

Thy  President  has  wisely  said, 

Quite  early  in  the  season  ; 
These  buds,  as  such,  they  promise  much, 

The  Class  of  Nineteen  Eleven. 

Time  and  deeds  all  go  to  prove 
His  words  were  fitly  chosen  ; 

Loyal  to  be,  striving  are  we, 
The  Class  of  Nineteen  Eleven. 

The  Sophomores  with  ease  can  tell, 

As  it  to  them  was  proven  ; 
A  pistol  shot,  we  were  on  top,. 

The  Class  of  Nineteen  Eleven. 

As  one  by  one  the  days  go  by, 

The  bonds  of  friendship  strengthen  ; 

No  evil  scar  shall  ever  mar 
The  Class  of  Nineteen  Eleven. 

Since  every  loyal  heart  and  hand, 

In  love  we  thus  have  given  ; 
We'll  stand  by  thee,  dear  L.  V.  C, 

The  Class  of  Nineteen  Eleven. 

Then  let  us  rally,  one  and  all, 

Our  paths  through  life  to  brighten  ; 

And  to  the  stars,  through  all  that  bars 
The  Class  of  Nineteen  Eleven.

History 


E  the  music  class  of  nineteen  hundred  and  eight  highly  appreciate 
the  honor  bestowed  upon  us  by  the  Juniors,  in  allowing  us  to 
explain  at  least  a  few  of  the  things  we  have  done.  'Tis  said 
that  history  repeats  itself.  This  may  be  disproved,  for  there  is 
not  the  slightest  possibility  of  the  history  of  the  Music  Class  of  nineteen 
hundred  and  eight  ever  being  duplicated;  not  that  its  members  have 
achieved  everything  which  they  have  striven  for,  but  that  they  have  accom- 
plished marvelous  things. 

One  beautiful  day  in  the  autumn  of  nineteen  hundred  and  seven  there 
assembled  in  the  classic  halls  of  our  Conservatory  of  Music,  a  band  of  young 
maidens  and  a  few  bashful  youths.  And  thereafter  it  was  known  that  the 
Conservatory  of  Lebanon  Valley  College  would  graduate  in  nineteen  hundred 
and  eight  the  largest  class  in  its  history. 

The  advent  of  the  class  into  the  life  of  the  college  was  quiet  and 
unpretentious,  yet  its  influence  was  felt  and  acknowledged  in  every  avenue 
of  activity.  One  morning,  soon  afterwards,  we  all  came  to  chapel  wearing 
our  colors — garnet  and  green.  Then  you  should  have  heard  the  class  of 
nineteen  hundred  and  nine  lament  the  fact  that  they  could  not  share  the 
honor  with  us.  They  tried  hard  to  take  our  ribbons  from  us,  but  they 
found  that  they  were  "  up  against  a  stiff  proposition "  and  now  feel  so 
extremely  small  and  ridiculous  that  they  haven't  said  a  word  since. 

The  wearers  of  the  garnet  and  green  are  always  among  the  first.  Not 
only  are  we  called  upon  to  contribute  a  large  share  to  the  enjoyment  of  the 
public,  but  we  are  very  popular  in  the  "  Social  Life  "  of  the  college,  also 
Our  Class  banquet  was,  without  a  doubt,  the  greatest  event  of  the  college 
year.  We  simply  cannot  find  words  to  describe  it.  And  none,  save  the 
class,  will  ever  know  the  secret  of  that,  "  the  greatest  of  all  events." 

Only  a  few  more  days  are  left  to  us.  Then  we'll  say  farewell  to  our 
Alma  Mater,  perhaps  forever,  each  to  go  his  own  way  and  take  up  his  own 
burden,  applying  the  knowledge  gained  while  at  college  and  never  forget- 
ting our  classmates  nor  Lebanon  Valley  College. 


Music    1908    Poem 

Music  can  kindle  where  it  will, 

The  fire  that  in  the  heart  resides. 

Music  healeth  every  ill, 

In  mystery  its  soul  abides  ; 

And  tasks  in  hours  of  insight  will'd, 

Can  be  through  hours  of  gloom  fulfilled, 

With  aching  hand  and  weary  head, 

We  practice  then  some  mournful  tune; 

Its  melody  to  us  seems  dead 

And  harmony  is  wrapped  in  gloom. 

But  suddenly  there  comes  a  light, 

Than  which  none  else  could  be  more  bright, 

O  music,  thou  to  whom  the  power 

Is  given  to  stir  the  hearts  of  men, 

Help  us  in  these  most  treasured. hours 

To  nobly  strive  some  good  to  win. 

May  richest  melody  instill 

In  us  love  for  His  Holy  will 

O  music-band  of  nineteen  eight, 

Always  find  some  good  to  do  ; 

And  going  out  to  cruel  fate. 

Be  to  your  Alma  Mater  true  ; 

With  all  thy  will  her  will  to  do 

Remember  what  she's  been  to  you.

Young  Women's  Christian  Association 

The  past  year's  work  in  our  Association  has  been  very  successful  in 
many  ways.  The  same  standard  has  been  upheld  as  in  former  years,  with  a 
few  changes.  The  Association  was  helped  much  by  two  visits  of  the  State 
Secretary,  Miss  Dora  Dyer.  In  November  the  Y.  W.  C.  A.  week  of  prayer 
was  observed  by  the  Association.  The  Bible  Study  class  led  by  Miss  Engle 
and  Mrs.  Keister  was  well  attended.  Misses  Grace  Lowery  and  May 
Hoerner  were  the  delegates  to  the  summer  conference  at  Silver  Bay.  In 
February  the  President,  Miss  Alice  Zuck  was  sent  as  delegate  to  the  Terri- 
torial Conference  held  in  Philadephia.  In  March  Misses  May  Hoerner  and 
Edna  Yeatts  represented  the  Association,  at  the  International  Missionary 
Convention  in  Pittsburg.

Young  Men's  Christian  Association 

The  Young  Men's  Christian  Association  takes  an  important  place  in 
our   institution.  By  attending  its  meetings    the   student    is    constantly 

reminded  of  his  duty  to  God  and  his  fellow  men.  Bible  study  and  Mission 
study  classes  together  with  the  weekly  devotional  meetings  give  the 
members  opportunity  for  Christian  work  and  make  them  acquainted  with 
the  needs  and  problems  of  the  day. 

The  aim  of  the  Association  is  to  help  each  student  to  develop  body, 
mind  and  spirit.  Various  opportunities  are  given  to  members  to  extend 
their  knowledge  of  the  work  by  attending  the  different  conventions  and 
conferences  of  the  Association.  During  the  past  year  two  delegates  at- 
tended the  Students'  Conference  at  Northfield,  two  attended  the  National 
Convention  which  was  held  at  Washington,  D.  C,  two  represented  the  As- 
sociation at  the  District  Convention  in  York,  Pa.,  and  one  at  the  Connells- 
ville  State  Convention.  In  this  way  the  most  active  men  in  the  Association 
come  to  know  the  most  helpful  men  of  the  times  and  the  most  up-to-date 
methods  of  Christian  work.

Tennis 

Owing  to  the  fact  that  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  the  college  made  a 
ruling,  several  years  ago,  that  all  the  tennis  courts  must  he  removed  to  the 
athletic  field,  the  splendid  tennis  spirit,  which  at  one  time  prevailed,  when 
the  "Bison  Club"  and  the  "Quittaphilla  Club"  each  maintained  their 
own  courts  on  the  campus,  has  completely  died  out,  largely  due  to  the  great 
distance  to  the  athletic  field.  Realizing  the  great  need  of  the  game  here, 
the  athletic  committee  of  the  Athletic  Association  took  steps  to  revive  the 
sport  and  President  Stehman  appointed  George  M.  Richter  '09  as  manager- 
As  yet  very  little  has  been  accomplished.  An  effort  is  being  made  to  build 
some  good  courts  on  the  campus,  along  White  Oak  St.  A  tournament  was 
arranged  with  Franklin  and  Marshall  for  May  20,  and  during  com- 
mencement week  an  inter-class  tournament  was  held  for  the  College 
Championship.  It  is  the  hope  of  the  manager  to  have  the  courts  in  good 
condition  for  a  fall  tournament. 


Track 

One  of  the  most  important  branches  of  college  athletics,  namely  track, 
has  been  sadly  overlooked  at  Lebanon  Valley  College,  due  largely  to  the  fact 
that  we  never  had  a  track.  The  opportunities  for  the  students  to  enter 
athletics  is  limited  within  entirely  too  narrow  bounds  in  an  institution  where 
only  football,  baseball  and  basketball  prevail.  Many  students  who  can 
not  win  places  on  any  of  the  above  nameo"  teams  are  barred  from  athletics 
entirely,  because  the  branch  in  which  they  excell  is  not  practiced  here. 
This  is  manifestly  unfair  to  the  student  body.  Taking  cognizance  of  these 
facts,  the  Athletic  Association  appointed  J.  Lester  Appenzellar,  '08,  track 
manager.  A  temporary  track  has  been  measured  off  and  while  Lebanon 
Valley  will  not  be  represented  in  any  inter-collegiate  meets  this  year,  it  bids 
fair  to  develop  a  strong  team  from  the  excellent  material  at  hand,  in  prepa- 
ration for  next  year  when  we  hope  to  see  her  participate  in  some  inter- 
collegiate meets. 


Peculiar 

Its  peculiar  how  a  fellow  often  tries  to  write  in  rhyme, 
And  tries  with  might  and  main  to  keep  the  rhythm  and  the  time, 
These  poor  imitation  poets  you  can  find  in  every  clime, 
Peculiar,  isn't  it,  now  ? 

A  fellow  often  likes  to  think  he's  of  a  different  kind 
From  everybody  else,  or  has  a  very  brilliant  mind, 
While  to  his  faults  and  imitations  a  fellow's  always  blind  ; 
Peculiar,  isn't  it,  now? 

He  thinks  he's  a  composer  and  great  songs  some  day  he'll  write, 
Or  maybe  he's  a  poet  writing  verse  and  jingles  bright, 
Perhaps  thinks  himself  an  actor,  on  the  stage  a  shining  light, 
Peculiar,  isn't  it,  now? 

And  all  the  time  he's  just  a  common,  ordinary  lad 
Without  a  single  idea  that  every  one's  not  had; 
But  if  you'd  ever  hint  at  this  he'd  laugh  and  call  you  cad, 
Peculiar,  isn't  it,  now  ? 

In  closing  this  small  ditty  this. prediction  I'll  surmise, 
Each  one  who  reads  this  poem  think  how  truly  it  applies 
To  someone  else,  nor  thinks  that  fault  in  him  as  truly  lies. 
Peculiar,  isn't  it,  now  ? 


The  Science  of  Boding 

Boxing  is  an  art  about  which  very  little  is  understood  around  this  joint 
which  is  very  natural  when  we  consider  that  this  is  an  institution  of  learn- 
ing. For  the  benefit  of  the  ignorant  I  will  try  to  explain  a  few  of  the  most 
simple  points  of  boxing.  Persons  interested  in  this  subject  will  find  the 
definition  of  boxing  in  Webster's  dictionary,  page  532  or  in  the  World's 
Encyclopedia,  page  4000.  For  practical  demontration  all  are  invited  to 
call  at  Room  23.  Mens'  Dormitory  ;  ladies,  however,  must  be  accompanied 
by  a  chaperon 

Boxing  can  be  divided  into  several  classes,  namely,  ear-boxing,  pugilism, 
sparring  and  boxing  chickens.  There  is  also  something  very  closely  allied 
to  boxing  which  is  called  by  the  members  of  the  Death  League  "the  oil  of 
gladness."  However  this  is  too  painful  for  me  to  dwell  upon  here.  Any- 
one who  wishes  this  phase  of  boxing  more  fully  defined  can  get  full  inform- 
ation by  applying  to  the  Death  League. 

A  knowlege  of  this  art  of  defence  is  very  useful,  especially  for  the  men 
during  leap  year  when  they  have  so  much  to  defend  themselves  against. 
But  boxing  is  also  very  dangerous  sometimes  because  when  someone  thinks 
he  can  box  and  tries  it  with  someone  who  can  box  he  generally  gets  it  in 
the  neck,  or  rather,  in  the  jaw.  I  do  not  wish  my  pupils  to  attempt  any- 
thing as  yet.  Most  boxers  use  a  punching  bag  to  practice  on  but  I  would 
advise  the  greenies  to  use  a  pillow  so  that  there  would  be  less  chance  of 
being  hit  back.  Also  I  wish  to  warn  you  against  using  your  sisters  and 
little  brothers  for  punching  bags,  as  they  may  not  appreciate  it.  The  little 
brothers  generally  tell  the '' old  man  "  and  the  sisters  pull  your  hair  and 
scratch  your  face,  which,  while  it  makes  things  interesting,  is  not  at  all 
pleasant.  However,  other  peoples'  little  boys  are  safe,  except  when  they 
hav^  big  brothers. 

There  is  a  woeful  lack  of  sporting  spirit  around  this  institution.  In  a 
hand  to  hand  encounter  with  the  odds  in  your  opponent's  favor,  it  is  best  to 
strike  first  and  run  for  as  Joseph  Jefferson  says,  "  He  who  strikes  and  runs 
away  will  live  to  strike  another  day."  Just  as  a  great  poet  once  said — but 
I  forgot  the  poet's  name  and  what  he  said,  but  anyhow  it  was  a  fine  thing. 

The  are  many  terms  about  boxing  which  many  people  do  not  under- 
stand, such  as  "handing  out  five."     The  five  does  not  have  reference  to 


dollars  but  to  five  fingers  which  are  handed  out  in  a  lump.  But  this  you 
will  appreciate  better  by  experiencing  it  than  by  having  it  told  you.  There 
are  also  the  right  and  left  "uppercuts,"  which  are  very  hard  to  explain. 
But  suffice  it  to  say  that  upon  receiving  them  the  victim  generally  grunts 
and  sits  down.  He  then  realizes  what  Prof.  Spangler  said  in  chapel  one 
day.  "  Sufficient  unto  the  day  is  the  evil  thereof."  There  is  also  the 
"knockout"  blow.  Now  Prof.  Roeder  says  "there  is  no  rest  for  the  wicked," 
but  the  person  who  receives  this,  whether  he  be  good  or  whether  he  be  evil, 
will  be  sure  to  rest  for  sometime.  For  full  information  buy  my  little  book 
called  "  Ever-hopeful  Home  Study  Boxing  Course."

A  PARODY 


Ich  weiss  nicht  wass  soil  es  bedeuten, 

Das  ich  so  hungrig  bin. 
Die  lunch  room  prices  sind  hocher, 

Und  ich  muss  werden  din. 
O  ich  hab  so  viel  hunger 

Die  sie  qualt  mich  sehr, 
Ich  hab  nur  gegessen  some  wasser, 

Und  das  ist  schlechte  fare. 


A  Freshman  Tragedy 

Being  a  pathetic  tale  of  a  II  Testern  Co-ed  school. 

There  came  to  school  one  September  day 

A  Freshman  green  as  uncut  hay. 

His  hair  was  long,  his  face  was  wild, 
His  type  of  beauty  must  go  unstyled. 

And  would  you  believe  it !  He  thought  himself  gay  ! 

October  brought  its  scrub  glee  club  trials  ; 

The  "  Fresh  "  proved  the  best  by  miles  and  miles, 

And  so  into  lead  he  was  promptly  put. 

He  tested  a  voice  by  its  owner's  foot, 
And  thus  sorted  the  crowd  amid  happy  smiles. 

November  appeared  with  its  chill  bleak  wind: 
The  scrub  glee  club  leader  made  up  his  mind 

When  a  love-letter  came  full  of  honeyed  word, 
Making  him  sing  like  a  happy  bird, 
"The  sweet  lass  who  wrote  this  I'll  mighty  soon  find.' 

So  he  hied  himself  at  the  close  of  day 

To  the  Ladies'  Hall  not  far  away. 

He  entered  the  hall  with  mighty  step, 
As  if  he  had  pacticed  by  hep!  hep!  hep! 

And  sent  up  his  card  with  much  display. 

The  young  lady  came  down  in  trembling  haste, 
The  scrub  glee  club  leader  his  words  did  not  waste: 

"My  dear  young  lady,  most  charming  belle, 

"My  burning  love  to  you  I'll  tell 
"And  implore  a  kiss  from  your  lips  so  chaste." 

They're  happy  now  and  live  quite  swell ; 

But  is  it  not  strange  the  fate  that  befell 
A  fine  young  man  at  a  co-ed  school 
And  the  girl  who  made  of  him  a  fool  ? 

But  it  has  ended  happily,  and  we  wish  them  well.

Leap  Year  Song 

Look  this  way  dear  ladies, 
Take  your  choice  to-night 
Of  all  these  lads  before  yon, 
Bashful,  full  of  fright. 
Some  are  long  and  lanky, 
Others  short  and  fat  ; 
Some  are  old  and  cranky, 
Few  will  fight  or  spat. 
Most  have  indigestion, 
Come  from  life  alone  ; 
It  would  make  you  weep  aloud 
Just  to  hear  them  groan. 
Here  there  is  no  money, 
Rheumatiz  to  spare  ; 
And  all  are  kind  and  gentle, 
Just  like  a  Teddy  Bear. 

Chorus. 
For  Leap  year  once  again  has  come, 
The  hint  we  give  is  clear. 
We  love  you  each  and  each  beseech 
Save  us  from  bachelor  fear. 
Just  look  at  this  fine  crowd  of  lads, 
Come  try  your  choice  to  take  ; 
Come  in  to  win — one  fat  or  thin, 
And  prove  leap  year's  no  fake. 

Complexions  Cosmetique, 

Hair  of  drug  store  hue  ; 

'Twont  make  any  difference, 

Any  girl  will  do. 

Just  so  she  can  cook  well — 

Knows  just  how  to  sew; 

Can  smile  once  in  a  while, 

Has  no  other  beau. 

We  hate  to  sweep  our  own  rooms, 

We  hate  to  darn  our  socks  ; 

Being  only  single, 

We  get  a  pile  of  knocks. 

No  more  bachelor  waiting, 

Each  will  find  a  wife; 

Settle  down  on  poor  old  dad, 

Happy  now  for  life. 

Arranged  for  Glee  Club. 


The  Proposal 

My  dear  darling,  I  write  this  letter 
That  your  future  may  be  better, 
By  giving  me  your  heart  and  hand 
And  joining  me  in  wedlock  land. 

I've  chosen  you  from  all  the  rest, 
And  merely  make  this  one  request: 
For  you  alone  I  do  admire, 
And  to  be  Mrs. is  my  desire. 

I  am  willing  to  consent 

To  anything  you  may  wish, 

I'll  make  the  fire,  darn  your  socks, 

Polish  your  shoes  and  make  my  frocks. 

In  other  words  I'll  make  a  wife 

Such  as  you  seldom  find  through  life, 

For  I  am  blessed  with  a  skill  and  nature  rare, 

Of  beauty  I  have  a  little  share. 

Now,  dearest,  should  you  my  offer  decline, 
Then  I'll  impose  a  leap  year  fine, 
Which  entitles  me  to  a  handsome  dress 
Made  of  silk — I'll  wear  nothing  less, 

So  now  you  must  choose  either  way 
And  send  me  back  without  delay 
You  answer,  say  yes  or  nay. 

Yours  Lovingly, 

Miss 

Conservatory  of  Music, 
Room  5. 


LEAP  YEAR  GIRL 


The  Reply 

An  Owl  sat  high  on  a  sycamore  tree 
On  a  night  in  the  dark  of  the  moon, 

And  sang  of  love  in  a  shrill,  high  key 
To  her  sweetheart,  a  fat  young  coon. 

"I  love  thee  well,  O  brave  young  love, 

O  marry  me  now,  I  say; 
We'll  live  in  your  snug  nest  right  above, 

O  marry  me,  please,  I  pray." 

Mr.  Coon  replied  in  tones  of  delight 
"O  truly,  Owl,  do  you  really  love  me  ? 

Then  call  again  on  to-morrow  night 
And  see  what  your  future  will  be." 

The  owl  flew  away  to  her  lonely  nest, 
Mr.  Coon  smoothed  his  silky  curls 

And  thought:  I  want  to  do  for  me  what's  best, 
But  Owls  are  deceivers  like  girls. 

A  doctoress  Owl  gets  not  much  pay, 
A  preacheress  Owl  gets  much  less ; 

A  musicianess  Owl  has  all  outlay, 
So  they're  all  alike,  I  guess. 

A  chump  was  I,  (now  I  have  confessed) 

But  I  know  much  better  now  ; 
Owls  are  schemers  like  all  the  rest, 

BachUor  for  mine,  if  fates  allow. 


Leap  Year  Poem 


There  is  a  leap  year  custom  that  perhaps  you  recollect, 

But  I'll  mention  it  in  passing,  just  the  same, 
That  permits  each  rosy  maid  to  send  a  due  bill  marked  "collect" 

To  each  fellow  whom  she  wished  would  change  her  name. 

This  peculiar  ancient  custom,  starting  back  in  olden  times 
So  the  ancient  bards  and  minstrels  used  to  sing, 

Would  permit  the  dusky  maiden  living  off  in  southern  climes, 
To  offer  hand  and  heart  to  prince  or  king. 

III.  

For  not  even  Lord  or  Ruler,  so  it    often  has  been  said, 

Would  dare  to  scorn  the  lowest  peasant  maid  ; 
But  to  each  and  every  maiden,  if  he  did  not  care  to  wed, 

To  her  five  hundred  pounds  must  needs  be  paid. 

And  this  peculiar  custom  has  descended  down  to  us, 

And  who  to  mock  a  custom  shall  incline, 
That  permits  the  dried  up  spinster  to  secure  a  husband,  plus 

"A  fairy  in  your  home"  in  course  of  time. 

But  alas — -the  poor  old  bach,  who  dwells  in  single  blessedness, 

This  custom  brings  on  many  a  line  of  care 
Across  "his  aging  temples,    many  a  night  of  restlessness, 

Is  the  cause  of  many  a  bald  head  losing  hair. 


For  when  leap  year  comes  the  maidens  never  sit  and  weep  and  pine, 
They  have  got  enough  of  gumption,  pluck  and  nerve. 

To  be  sure  there's  something  doing  in  the  matrimonial  line, 
Never  from  that  noble  purpose  do  they  swerve. 

VII.  

So  beware  ye  grumpy  bachelors;  you  had  best  make  up  your  mind 

If  you  want  to  live  your  foolish  single  life, 
You  had  best  get  out  your  check  books,  for  on  tho't  your  sure  to  find, 

Its  celibacy  and  money  'gainst  a  wife. 


BAG     RUSH

Ladies9  Day 


i. 

O,  I  am  a  college  sport,  sir,  and  I  tell  you  on  the  level, 

That  I  spend  my  money  on  the  girls,  and  sport  to  beat  the — band  ; 

My  father  thinks  I've  got  a  set  of  brains  like  Socrates, 

But  I  don't  give  a  rap  for  that,  I  do  just  as  I  please. 

O,  our  college  is  a  co-ed  school  with  ladies  tall  and  slim, 

With  a  disposition,  form  and  face  to  suit  my  every  whim. 

I  tell  you,  you'd  be  jealous,  sir,  if  you  my  rep.  would  know ; 

The  girls  all  say  that  I'm  O.  K. — you  see  I've  got  the  dough. 

CHORUS. 
So  ev'ry  day  is  ladies  day  for  me,  I'm  quite  at  their  disposal  all  the  while : 
But  my  pleasure  it  is  double  if  they  come  to  me  in  trouble, 
For  I  always  find  a  way  to  make  them  smile,  the  little  darlings. 
I've  no  doubt  I  should  have  married  long  ago, 
'Tis  the  proper  thing  to  do,  you'll  all  agree, 
But  I  never  could  find  any  fun  in  wasting  all  my  time  on  one, 
So  every  day  is  ladies'  day  for  me. 

II. 
But  of  course  my  life  has  drawbacks,  too;  what  life  is  there  has  not, 
For  the  profs,  are  always  on  my  trail,  and  on  it  good  and  hot. 
The  faculty  oft'  calls  on  me,  my  heart  with  terror  chills, 
Howe'er  they've  never  fired  me  yet — I  always  pay  my  bills, 
So  I  regularly  spend  my  time  up  in  a  practice  room, 
And  when  the  door  is  shut  and  locked  we  spoon  and  spoon  and  spoon. 
I  never  wear  my  welcome  out,  no  matter  how  I  stay, 
The  reason  is  I  always  choose  a  new  girl  every  day.

TUNE  :  "  CHAPEL  STEPS." 

Lebanon  Valley  stands  to  us 

In  days  of  early  youth 
A  faithful  guide  in  learnings  path — 

A  beacon  light  of  truth. 
As  a  faithful  mother  she  points  the  way 

And  leads  each  trusting  soul 
To  paths  of  honor,  strength  and  love, 

Which  end  in  duty's  goal. 

Bright  memories  will  e'er  remain 

Of  happy  college  days, 
Of  dearest  college  friends  and  chums, 

Of  youthful  hopes  and  fears. 
The  years  will  come,  the  years  will  go, 

We  oft  will  wander  far  ; 
Our  thoughts  will  e'er  turn  baqk  to  her 

As  to  our  guiding  star. 

Here's  to  our  Alma  Mater  boys, 

Home  of  our  student  days  ; 
Here's  to  the  place  we  .love  so  well, 

A  song  to  her  of  praise. 
Here's  hoping  her  way  be  ever  bright, 

Her  children  ever  true  ; 
Her  teachings  be  ever  just  and  right, 

Hurrah  for  the  white  and  blue.

colors  or  numerals  until  the  end  of  the  first  semester,  unless  they  win  the 
bag  rush,  in  which  case  they  may   wear  them   immediately  after  they  shall 


have  been  acknowledged  the  victors. 

The  freshman  and  sophomore  classes  shall  have  at  least  five  annual 
interclass  events,  three  of  which  shall  be  in  football,  basketball  and  baseball. 
The  fourth  shall  displace  the  color  scrap  and  shall  be  known  as  the  bag 
rush,  and  the  fifth  shall  be  a  field  meet,  rules  and  requirements  for  both  of 
which  shall  be  determined  by  the  senior-junior  council. 

The  bag  rush  shall  take  place  before  October  15,  and  the  football  game 
before  November  25. 

Freshmen  having  more  than  fifteen  and  sophomores  more  than  twelve

Baseball  Notes 


Flook  and  Jacoby  each  caught  a  foul  the  night  before  Vic.   Weidler's 
birthday  dinner. 

Prof.  Roeder  caught  a  fly  in  the  breakfast  food. 

Lester   Spessard  and     Vic  Weidler  were  called    out   for   interference 
with  practice. 

At  a  party  given  at  the  Ladies'  Hall  on  Saturday  night  there  were  not 
enough  men  to  fill  all  the  positions,  even  counting  the  substitutes. 

If  Harry  Andrews  would  stand  up  to  the  rubber  plate  as  he  does  to  the 
china  plate,  he  would  be  promising  material  for  the  team. 

Charlie  Plummer  was  struck  out  by  his  brother  Wilbur. 

If  some  of  the  fellows  who  make  home  runs  every  week  would   come 
out  for  the  team,  we  would  have  some  heavy  hitters.

To   get    from    its   victims    a    penitent    V.    O.    W. 

For    if   they    don't    watch    how    they    come    and    go.

Their    college    life    will    be    a    life    of    E.    A.    S.

Our  Divided  Faculty 


Song  of 
The    RooseVelt   Club 

Oh,  we  are  a  group  of  jolly  profs  ; 

Our  charges  we  push  before. 
The  gentle  face  that  smiles  on  us 

Recommends  a  dozen  kids  or  more. 

Our  hearts  are  light 

And  our  hands  are  steady, 

And  you  may  bet 
We're  all  for  Teddy. 


Song    of 
The  Race  Suicide  Club 

Our  group  is  the  wonder  of  the  age — 
Each  one  an  authority,  professor  or 
sage. 
Kids  we  have  none, 

And  the  opposite  sex  we  implore 
Get  out  of  our  way, 

We've  no  time  for  Theodore.

PRESERVED    BECAUSE   OF    ITS   RARITY 


A  Picture  of  Sunday   Night  Sociability  at  a 
Co-educational  Institution.  * 

On  Sunday  evenings,  some  of  our  young  gentlemen  call  upon 
the  young  ladies  at  the  Ladies'  Hall,  and,  following  all  the  rules  of 
college  etiquette  woo  them  graciously  'neath  the  spreading  palms 
while  the  lights  burn  low.  The  number  of  these  young  men  is 
small  but  select — Oh !  how  select !  — the  nicest  and  most  handsome 
young  men  of  the  institution.  Their  vocations  are  varied.  Several  are 
preachers  in  embryo.  Others  would  come  under  the  general  category 
of  professional  crooks,  sports,  race-track  gamblers  and  "face  flushers." 
A  sorry  lot !  Yet,  spick  and  span,  they  go  regularly  to  call  at  the 
Ladies'  Hall  each  Sunday  eve  and  woo  the  gentle  sex,  who  reign 
supreme — or  think  they  do — at  L.  V.  C.  Out  of  respect  for  your 
feelings  I  shall  not  tell  you  who  these  flowers  of  Lebanon  Valley 
chivalry    are. 

The  Freshmen  of  this  bunch  are  not  allowed  to  spoon  in  the 
parlor  like  gentlemen,  but  are  sent  to  the  kitchen  by  the  Seniors. 
They  are  contented,  however,  for  the  kitchen  range  is  as  secluding 
as  the  piano  or  the  palms  in  the  parlor.  Up  in  the  parlor  two 
fellows,  old  at  the  game,  never  get  into  the  some  room.  One  is 
sure  to  take  the  north  and  the  other  the  south  parlor.  Then  they 
get  to  fighting  over  the  light.  By  mutual  agreement  the  lights  in 
both    parlors    must    be    turned   off,    excepting    one    light   in    one    of    the 


*  In  order  that  our  readers  ma}'  not  get  the  idea  that  our  college 
days  are  all  grind  we  have  had  a  careful  student  of  the  sociology  of 
the   institution    write   his   observations   on   the    social   joys   of    L.  V.  C. 

Editor's  Note. 


parlors ;  but  ordinarily  not  being  able  to  agree  in  which  parlor  this 
lone  light  shall  burn,  they  settle  the  difficulty  by  turning  off  all 
the  lights.  The  "  tall  boy "  generally  does  this  duty.  Then  come 
gentle  remonstrances  about  being  afraid  in  the  dark,  but  their 
natural    protectors   allay    their    fears,    and    all    is   bliss. 

Gossip  has  it  that  one  evening  a  Senior  met  a  "bud"  fleeing 
from  the  kitchen,  who,  to  his  mild  look  of  inquiry — being  a  Senior, 
he  had  passed  through  the  violet  stage  of  spoonology — exclaimed. 
"  Oh,    he   tried    to   kiss    me,    the    ugly    boy ! " 

"  Holy  smokes !  "  ejaculated  the  Senior,  "  What  have  you  been 
doing   down    there,    if  this    is   the   first    time    he   kissed    you  ? " 

"Oh,  just  getting  ready,"  she  answered,  and,  smiling  contentedly, 
skipped    down    stairs    again    to    the  region    of    pots   and    pans. 

At  eleven  sharp,  our  motherly  preceptress  appears  at  the  top  of 
the  stairs  in  a  ghostly  garb  and  calls  to  her  young  charges  below  in 
sweetest  musical  tones,  subdued  but  perfectly  audible  in  the  extreme 
corners  of  the  parlors  and  the  secluded  retreats  of  the  kitchen, 
"Girls!  Girls!!  (No  answer.)  Girls!!  Girls!!!!  The  deuce!!  What 
are  you  girls  doing  down  there  ?  Girls !  Girls  !  !  I  say,  its  time  to 
say  good  night.  You  may  do  that  on  the  porch.  Don't  let  it  take 
you  longer  than  twelve.  From  various  points  they  answer,  "  Yes, 
ma'am.  Good  night !  (Miss  Engle  exit.)  No  one  has  been  able  to  learn 
definitely  what  takes  place  on  the  porch  from  n  to  12.  "Oh!  fair 
porch !  How  manifold  are  thy  blessings !  Thou  art  fair  and  dark 
indeed  !     How    much    thou    hidest    from    view !''     Shakespeare. 

Perhaps  we  might  never  have  known  the  mysteries  of  the  porch 
had  not  some    mean,    some    malign,    some    malicious   young   fellow,    who 

was  robbing  the  kitchen  and  saw  (?)  told    us    confidentially  what 

—151— 


he   saw  fiom   11.50  to  12  one  Sunday  night.     Let  the  suggestion  suffice. 

The  ministers  of  the  institution  call  somewhere  in  -Bellegrove,  at 
least  two  of  them,  so  'tis  said.  But  the  manly  young  men— the  strong 
and  brave,  the  flower  of  L.  V.  C. — they  go  to  Lebanon  each  Sunday 
eve.  Their  number  is  great.  Even  the  Forum  editor  and  the  Y.  M.  C. 
A.  president  have  now  joined  their  ranks.  When  asked  regarding  their 
reception  they  grow  enthusiastic  over  the  fair  Ladies  of  Lebanon 
and    say    to    those   in    doubt    that    one    visit   will    surely   convince. 

The  only  thing  to  be  deplored  is  that  some  of  the  fellows  miss 
the  last  car  home,  and  either  walk  home  in  the  early  hours  of 
Monday  morning  or  come  straggling  into  their  classes  some  time 
during    the    forenoon. 

Verily,  all  the  brave,  who  alone  deserve  the  fair,  wend  their 
way  to  Lebanon  each  Sunday  eve.  So  there !  Thus  endeth  the 
reading   of    the    lesson.       Be    wise ! 

A  Critical  Observer.

Final  Word 

We  have  aimed  in  compiling  this  Bizarre  to  touch  every  point  in  the 
cycle  of  our  college  life.  We  think  our  book  is  a  true  index  of  the  char- 
acter of  Lebanon  Valley  College.  If  we  have  a  joke  on  anyone  of  you, 
believe  us  it  is  perfectly  good-natured ;  if  we  don't  have  one  on  you  it  is 
because  you  did  not  tell  us  one  on  yourself. 

To  all  those  who  contributed  in  any  way  to  the  contents  of  our  Bizarre 
we  are  thankful.  We  are  especially  grateful  to  our  patrons  and  advertisers, 
who  have  made  the  publication  of  this  book  possible,  and  to  our  publishers 
for  their  excellent  service  and  their  patience  with  our  inexperienced  editor- 
ship.

TREES    SHRUBS     PLANTS 

The  proper  selection  of  trees, 
shrubs  and  plants  for  the  home 
grounds  is  fully  as  important  as 
the  selection  of  the  furniture  for 
the  home.  We  cheerfully  help 
our  customers  to  make  this 
selection.  Then  too,  the  proper 
arrangement  and  planting  at  the 
start  has  much  to  do  with  their 
growth  and  beauty.  We  send  our 
trained  men  to  do  this  for  you 
thereby   saving  time  and  money. 

Write  us  giving  details  of  your 
planting  space.

Or  do  you  regard  it  as  "expense", 
like  coal  for  fuel,  to  be  bought 
from  the  lowest  bidder.  Printing 
that  gives  your  customers  the 
idea  that  you  are  a  cheap  firm 
is  not  cheap  printing.      •     .     ■     .
