EMPHASi-S  has  been  repeatedly  laid  in  the  Bulletiti  npon  the  urgent 
need  of  an  endowment  fund  adequate  to  meet  the  expenses  of  the 
institution.  There  has  for  years  been  a  large  annual  deficit,  which,  by 
last  June,  had  accumulated  to  the  amount  of  about  $91,500.  For  the 
present  collegiate  year  the  estimated  deficit  of  about  f  21, 000  has  been 
provided  for  by  the  generosity  of  some  members  of  the  Board  of  Trustees. 
But  obviously  the  relief  thus  afforded  is  but  temporary,  and  the  College 
cannot  prosper  so  long  as  the  inevitable  annual  outlay  exceeds  the  an- 
nual income.  No  material  reduction  of  the  annual  expense  can  be 
made  without  seriously  impairing  the  efficiency  of  the  work  of  the 
College.  In  fact,  there  is  in  several  departments  a  pressing  demand 
for  an  increase  in  the  staff  of  instruction. 

Since  his  installation,  President  Shanklin  has  been  devoting  himself 
to  a  close  study  of  the  College  and  its  constituency,  and  reserving  until 
the  present  year  the  active  prosecution  of  plans  for  raising  the  new 
endowment.  Yet  in  the  course  of  the  past  year  the  sum  of  $217,500  has 
been  pledged,  somewhat  more  than  a  fifth  of  the  entire  amount  desired. 
Last  August  the  President  underwent  a  surgical  operation  which  com- 
pelled a  rest  of  several  weeks,  but  he  has  made  a  happy  recovery,  and  is 
giving  himself  with  renewed  energy  to  the  completion  of  a  definite  plan 
for  raising  the  endowment  before  January  i,  1912,  the  time  at  which  a

EMPHASIS  has  been  repeatedly  laid  in  the  Bulletin  upon  the  urgent 
need  of  an  endowment  fund  adequate  to  meet  the  expenses  of  the 
institution.  There  has  for  years  been  a  large  annual  deficit,  which,  by 
last  June,  had  accumulated  to  the  amount  of  about  $91,500.  For  the 
present  collegiate  year  the  estimated  deficit  of  about  |2 1,000  has  been 
provided  for  by  the  generosity  of  some  members  of  the  Board  of  Trustees. 
But  obviously  the  relief  thus  afforded  is  but  temporary,  and  the  College 
cannot  prosper  so  long  as  the  inevitable  annual  outlay  exceeds  the  an- 
nual income.  No  material  reduction  of  the  annual  expense  can  be 
made  without  seriously  impairing  the  efficiency  of  the  work  of  the 
College.  In  fact,  there  is  in  several  departments  a  pressing  demand 
for  an  increase  in  the  staff  of  instruction. 

Since  his  installation.  President  Shanklin  has  been  devoting  himself 
to  a  close  study  of  the  College  and  its  constituency,  and  reserving  until 
the  present  year  the  active  prosecution  of  plans  for  raising  the  new 
endowment.  Yet  in  the  course  of  the  past  year  the  sum  of  $217,500  has 
been  pledged,  somewhat  more  than  a  fifth  of  the  entire  amount  desired. 
Last  August  the  President  v:nderwent  a  surgical  operation  which  com- 
pelled a  rest  of  several  weeks,  but  he  has  made  a  happy  recover}',  and  is 
giving  himself  with  renewed  energj-  to  the  completion  of  a  definite  plan 
for  raising  the  endowment  before  January  i,  1912,  the  time  at  which  a

million  of  dollars  must  be  pledged  in  order  to  secure  the  conditional  offer 
of  f  100,000  from  the  General  Education  Board. 

It  should,  perhaps,  be  definitely  stated  that  not  less  than  $700,000  of  the 
million  is  to  be  devoted  to  endowment  for  meeting  the  annual  expenses. 
For  new  building.s — a  library,  a  chemical  laboratorj-,  a  college  union — 
not  more  than  $300,000  of  the  million  can  be  used,  although  this  sum  is 
evidenth-  insufficient  to  provide  buildings  in  every  respect  adequate. 


At  a  special  meeting  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  held  in  New  York  City 
on  December  2,  the  following  committee  was  appointed  to  take  in 
charge  the  entire  project  for  raising  the  desired  million  of  dollars:  J.  C. 
Clark,  John  Gribbel,  W.  T.  Rich,  J.  X.  Brown,  C.  L.  Rockwell,  Charles 
Scott,  R.  N.  Bennett,  W.  H.  Burrows,  C.  D.  Burdick,  W.  A.  Shanklin. 


The  enrollment  of  students  this  year  is  369,  the  largest  in  the  history  of 
Wesleyan.  In  the  freshman  class  there  entered  in  September  140  men, 
including  special  students,  and  the  record  now  contains  the  names  of  133 
freshmen  and  two  special  students.  The  very  substantial  rate  of 
increase  indicated  b}-  these  figures  affords  good  groimd  for  hope  that  the 
attendance  may  be  raised  within  a  reasonable  time  to  not  less  than  five 
hundred.  A  year  ago  the  entering  class  was  twenty  per  cent  larger 
than  that  of  the  preceding  year;  and  the  present  freshman  class  shows 
an  advance  of  sixteen  per  cent  over  the  class  of  last  year.  Four  fresh- 
man classes  of  150  men  each  would  be  sufficient,  allowing  for  the  usual 
shrinkage  in  numbers,  to  bring  the  aggregate  enrollment  up  to  not  less 
than  five  hundred,  which,  as  was  stated  in  the  Bulletin  of  last  December, 
is  as  large  a  number  as  can  be  adequately  provided  for. 


Some  important  changes  have  been  made  in  the  method  of  election 
of  members  to  Phi  Beta  Kappa.  Of  each  graduating  class,  twenty  per 
cent  is  to  be  elected,  in  place  of  twent3'-five  per  cent  as  heretofore. 
A  further  innovation  is  the  election  of  ten  per  cent  of  the  entire  number 
in  November  and  the  remaining  ten  per  cent  in  June.  Henceforth  but 
two  honorarv  members  are  to  be  chosen  instead  of  four. 


Attention  is  called  to  the  fact  that  after  this  year  the  amount  of  college 
bills  for  every  student  will  be  $140. 


By  the  death  of  Samuel  Wood  Bowne,  on  October  29,  the  University 
loses  a  valued  member  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  and  of  its  general  execu- 
tive  committee.       Mr.   Bowne   was    a    liberal    giver   to   charitable   and 


wesij<:yan  univkksity  bulletin  5 

educational  enterprises,  and  his  will  provided  numerous  bequests  for 
such  purposes.  The  amount  bequeathed  to  Wesleyan  considerably 
exceeds  that  named  in  the  public  press. 


TRUSTKE  MF:ETING 

The  annual  meeting  of  the  Board  cf  Trustees  was  held  in  Middletown 
beginning  Monday  evening,  June  27,  1910,  and  concluding  on  Tuesday 
morning,  the  28th.  The  officers  of  the  Board  were  reelected,  as  follows: 
H.  C.  M.  Ingraham,  President;  David  G.  Downey,  Secretary;  Clinton 
D.  Burdick,  Treasurer. 

The  following  appointments  to  the  facultj'  were  made,  all  for  one 
year:  Alexander  C.  Stevens,  Instructor  in  Descriptive  Geometry  and 
Assistant  in  Physics;  Oscar  F.  Hedenburg,  Assistant  in  Chemistry; 
John  K.  Lamond,  Instructor  in  Mathematics;  Ralph  E.  Gould,  Assistant 
in  Physics;  Ernest  F.  Amy,  Assistant  in  English;  Clark  S.  Beardslee, 
Lecturer  in  Ethics;  Arthur  L.  Gillett,  Lecturer  in  Evidences  of  Christi- 
anity. Doctor  David  D.  Whitney  was  appointed  acting  Curator  of  the 
Museum. 

A  committee  was  appointed  to  consider  the  question  of  tlie  purchase 
of  land  needed  for  the  erection  of  an  observatory,  and,  if  necessary  or 
desirable,  to  purchase  it. 

It  was  voted  to  authorize  the  employment  of  a  salaried  Y.  M.  C.  A. 
secretary. 

A  vote  of  thanks  was  extended  to  the  connnittee  composed  of  the  wives 
of  members  of  the  faculty,  which  has  completed  a  fund  for  a  Wesleyan 
bed  in.  the  Middlesex  Hospital. 

The  following  resolution  was  adopted:  "Upon  the  retirement  of 
Harlow  Rajinond  from  the  employ  of  Wesleyan  University  at  the  age  of 
eight}'  years,  after  a  period  of  nearly  forty-six  years  of  active  service  in 
a  capacity  which  commenced  as  Janitor  and  developed  with  the  growth 
of  the  college  into  the  Superintendency  of  Buildings  and  Groiinds,  this 
board  places  upon  its  record  this  minute  in  acknowledgment  and  appre- 
ciation of  his  long  and  valuable  service,  his  untiring  interest  in  all  that 
pertained  to  the  institution,  and  the  watchful  care  and  faithfulness  with 
which  he  discharged  his  duties." 

The  treasurer  placed  on  file  the  printed  financial  exhibit  for  the  year 
ending  June  30,  1909.  He  made  a  verbal  report,  showing  a  deficit  for 
the  college  year  just  ending  of  about  $40,000,  and  a  total  deficit  in  round 
figures  of  $91,500.  The  financial  condition  of  the  college  was  discussed 
in  detail,  and  subscriptions  amounting  to  $21,000  to  cover  the  estimated 
deficit  for  the  year  1910-11  were  made  by  the  trustees.      A  committee  of

five,  consisting  of  J.  E.  Andrus,  President  \V.  A.  Slianklin,  C.  D. 
Burdick,  J.  N.  Brown,  and  R.  N.  Bennett,  was  appointed  to  take  into  con- 
sideration the  expenditures  of  the  college  and  report  where  they  may 
wisely  be  reduced,  and  also  concerning  the  possible  increase  of  the  rev- 
enue so  as  to  present  a  budget  that  shall  not  exceed  the  probable  income 
of  the  University  for  the  year.  If  special  features  beyond  the  budget 
are  necessary  or  desirable,  they  are  to  be  provided  for  by  special  sub- 
scriptions or  arrangements. 

The  following  were  elected  trustees  for  a  period  of  live  years  from 
October  i,  1910,  to  succeed  themselves:  J.  C.  Clark,  J.  E.  King,  W.  V. 
Kelley,  \V.  C.  Squire,  A.  R.  Crittenden,  John  Gribbel,  James  G.  Shep- 
herd. 

The  treasurer  announced  the  receipt  of  $5,000  from  the  estate  of  the 
late  Charles  H.  Buck,  D.  D.,  for  the  endowment  fund. 

On  motion  of  President  Shanklin,  seconded  bj-  W.  V.  Kelley,  the  thanks 
and  appreciation  of  the  Board  for  the  successful  work  in  connection  with 
the  placing  of  Wesleyan  University  on  the  Carnegie  Foundation  were 
unanimously  tendered  to  S.  H.  Olin  by  a  rising  vote. 

It  was  voted  that  S.  H.  Olin  should  make  proper  response  to  the  Car- 
negie Foundation,  and  C.  D.  Burdick  to  the  General  Education  Board, 
for  their  helpful  interest  and  gifts  in  relation  to  the  Universit}-.

The  total  receipts  from  investments  during  the  year  were  $82,330.78. 
The  income  of  the  general  investments  has  been  divided  at  the  rate  of 
5.352  per  cent  among  the  funds  and  balances  to  which  these  invest-

the  interest  called  for  by  agreement  being  allowed  on  the  annuity  funds. 
The  income  remaining  after  the  above  division  ($7.28)  has  been  added 
to  the  income  of  the  general  endowment  funds.  By  vote  of  the  board 
of  trustees,  the  expenditures  from  any  library,  scholarship,  or  prize 
fund,  in  any  one  year,  shall  not  exceed  4}4  per  cent  of  the  principal  of

APPOINTMENTS  TO  THE  FACULTY 
John  Kenyon  Lamond,  elected  Instructor  in  Mathematics,  was 
graduated  from  Rhode  Island  State  College  in  1907,  with  the  degree  of 
B.  S.  In  his  senior  year  he  served  as  instructor  in  mathematics  in  the 
Rhode  Island  State  College  Preparatory  School.  He  received  the  degree 
of  M.  A.  from  Yale  in  190S  and  that  of  Ph.  D.  from  the  same  institution 
in  19 10.  His  doctoral  dissertation,  entitled  Improper  Multiple  Integrals 
depending  on  a  Parameter,  will  be  published  soon. 

Ernest  Francis  Amy,  elected  Assistant  in  English  Literature,  was 
graduated  from  WeslcN^an  University  in  1909,  with  the  degree  of  Bachelor 
of  Arts.  During  the  year  1909-10  he  pursued  graduate  Avork  in  English 
in  Wesleyan  University. 

Ralph  Edgar  Gould,  elected  Assistant  in  Physics,  was  graduated 
from  Tufts  College  in  1909,  with  the  degree  of  B.  S.  in  electrical  engi-

DEPARTMENT  NOTES. 

Latin. — About  sixty  lantern  slides  have  been  received  from  Berlin, 
illustrating  mainly  various  types  of  classic  art. 

Greek. — -Among  the  permanent  trophies  of  Professor  Heidel's  visit 
to  Greece  are  a  number  of  handsome  photographs,  which  have  been 
framed  and  hung  in  the  Greek  lecture-room,  and  several  hundred  lantern 
slides,  representing  scenes  and  objects  of  interest  to  students  of  Greek, 
which  are  being  made  from  negatives  taken  for  the  purpose. 

German.  — Owing  to  Professor  Fife's  leave  of  absence  for  the  second 
half-5-ear,  the  following  changes  have  been  made  in  the  courses:  Course 
III  is  given  only  during  the  first  half-year;  Course  YI,  which  would 
naturally  be  given  in  the  second  half-year,  is  omitted  for  the  present 
year,  and  Course  XI  is  given  in  the  first  half-year  instead  of  the  second 
as  heretofore. 

ENciuSH  Literature. — On  the  recommendation  of  the  head  of  the 
department,  the  trustees  at  their  meeting  in  June  voted  to  give  up  the 
formal  requirement  of  essaj-s  or  orations  from  all  members  of  the  senior 
class.  This  action,  however,  should  not  be  taken  as  implying  any  indif- 
ference to  the  value  of  practice  in  English  composition  or  public  speak- 
ing. A  new  course  in  public  speaking  for  seniors  is  offered  this  year 
under  the  joint  control  of  Professor  Wetzel  and  Professor  Winchester. 
Increased  attention  is  paid  to  the  written  work  required  in  seminary 
courses  in  several  departments. 


WESLEYAN  UNIVliRSITY  BULLETIN  I  3 

The  speakers  at  Commencement,  in  competition  for  the  Rich  Prize, 
are  to  be  selected  on  a  plan,  which,  it  is  hoped,  may  stimulate  careful 
writing  on  the  ]iart  of  a  very  large  portion  of  the  class.  This  plan,  as 
voted  by  the  faculty,  is  as  follows: 

Seniors  wishing  to  compete  for  a  position  on  the  Commencement  pro- 
gramme will  be  required  to  hand  in  two  essays,  the  first  due  January  i6, 
the  second,  April  lo.  These  essays  should  not  be  less  than  two  thou- 
sand words  in  length,  nor  more  than  about  five  thousand.  They  may  be 
narrative,  expository,  argumentative,  or  persuasive  in  character;  the  sub- 
jects may  be  drawn  from  the  field  of  college  studies,  literary,  historical, 
economic,  philosophical,  or  scientific,  or  from  matters  entirely  outside 
the  range  of  special  college  work;  but  the  treatment  of  the  subject 
must,  in  every  case,  be  net  technical,  but  rather  literary  and  popular. 

Every  competitor  must  hand  to  the  Professor  of  English  Literature 
for  criticism;  four  weeks  before  each  essay  is  due,  the  subject  he  has 
chosen,  with  an  outline  of  his  plan  of  treatment.  This  subject  with  out- 
line will  be  due,  therefore,  for  the  first  essay,  on  December  12;  for  the 
second  essay,  on  March  6.  The  completed  essays  will  be  criticized  by 
the  professor  of  the  department  with  the  writers  individually. 

From  the  competitors  presenting  these  essays,  sixteen,  if  there  shall 
be  more  than  that  number  competing,  shall  be  chosen  on  the  ground 
of  the  excellence  of  the  essays;  and  from  these  sixteen  not  more  than 
eight  shall  be  selected  as  Commencement  speakers,  after  a  competitive 
trial  in  declamation. 

Changes  in  Courses  in  English  Composition. — Wesleyan  has  here- 
tofore occupied  an  exceptional  position  among  New  England  colleges,  in 
requiring  essa3-s  of  all  juniors  and  seniors.  This  year  the  requirement 
is  abandoned,  and  a  course  in  English  composition,  elective  for  juniors 
and  seniors,  is  put  in  its  place.  The  new  course  calls  for  a  much  larger 
amount  of  practice  in  writing  than  was  the  case  under  the  old  system, 
and  is  yielding  results  hitherto  unattainable.  This  course  is  conducted 
by  Professor  Mead. 

The  work  in  sophomore  essays  has  also  been  placed  in  charge  of 
Professor ,  Mead,  who  corrects  the  papers  and  meets  the  writers  for 
individual  criticism. 

Several  changes  have  been  made  in  the  required  course  in  freshman 
English.  The  class  recites  now  more  frequently  than  it  has  regularly 
done  before,  meeting  in  sections  twice  a  week  through  the  year. 
Freshman  English  now  counts  as  a  three-hour  instead  of  a  two-hour 
course;  the  extra  credit  is  given  for  reading  done  outside  of  class 
in   standard   literature,  upon   which  a  certain  proportion  of  the  essays 


14  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

required  in  the  course  are  ^vritte^.  The  course,  instead  of  being  con- 
ducted by  Professor  Mead  and  an  instructor  conjointly,  is  this  year 
conducted  by  Mr.  Gillet  alone. 

Psychology. — The  sum  of  $250  has  been  given  to  the  laboratory  by 
Mr.  D.  A.  Cutler,  ex-'o3.  The  money  was  given  for  the  purchase  of 
special  apparatus  as  a  memorial  to  Miss  Zelia  A.  Cutler,  '03,  sister  of 
the  donor. 

Mathematics. — Owing  to  the  increase  in  the  teaching  force  in  this 
department,  it  has  been  possible  this  year  to  divide  the  freshman  classes 
into  smaller  sections.  There  are  five  sections  in  mathematics  I  and  II 
this  semester,  averaging  less  than  twenty  men.  In  the  same  courses 
last  year  there  were  but  three  sections  averaging  over  thirty  men. 

Course  IV  has  been  somewhat  changed.  It  is  now  in  large  part  a 
course  in  surveying.  The  course  counts  as  two  hours  a  week  and  con- 
sists of  two  hours  of  lectures  and  two  hours  of  field  work  with  the  instru- 
ments under  the  personal  direction  of  Doctor  Lamond. 

A  change  has  been  made  in  the  entrance  requirements  in  mathematics 
by  adding  advanced  algebra  to  the  list  of  elective  requirements.  It  will 
count  one-half  point,  as  do  solid  geometry  and  trigonometry.  In  fulfil- 
ment of  the  requirement  for  the  B.  S.  degree,  advanced  algebra  ma}'  be 
substituted  for  solid  geometry  or  analytic  geometry  but  not  for  trigo- 
nometr}'.  As  heretofore,  every  candidate  for  the  B.  S.  degree  must  take 
trigonometry,  but  he  maj'  now  select  as  a  second  course  advanced  algebra, 
solid  geometry,  or  analytic  geometry. 

Physics.— A  one-sixth  horse-power,  single-phase  induction  motor  was 
added  to  the  equipment  of  the  department  last  summer. 

Geology. — Courses  I,  II,  III,  and  IV  are  to  be  given  the  present  3'ear. 
Course  I  (phj^sical  geography)  is  to  be  given  by  a  special  instructor,  who- 
has  not  yet  been  appointed.  The  remaining  courses  are  to  be  given  by 
Professor  Rice.  It  has  been  deemed  necessary  to  omit  Courses  V  and 
VI  (mineralogy)  the  present  year,  as  Professor  Rice's  time  is  largely 
occupied  with  administrative  duties,  necessitated  by  President  Shanklin's 
frequent  absences  on  college  business. 

Biology. — A  one-hour  lecture  course  on  personal  and  social  hj'giene 
is  being  given  for  the  first  time  this  year.  The  course  is  conducted  by 
Professor  Conn  and  is  required  of  all  freshmen. 

The  course  is  to  cover  all  phases  of  personal  hygiene,  as  well  as  those 
of  the  individual's  relations  to  the  community  in  which  he  lives.  Under 
the  head  of  personal  hygiene  are  considered  such  subjects  as  exercise. 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  I  5 

food  habits,  the  care  of  the  skin,  the  heart,  the  huigs,  antl  the  lirain, 
mental  stud}-,  and  problems  of  sex  hygiene.  Under  the  head  of  social 
hygiene  are  considered  all  topics  which  bring  the  person  into  relation 
to  the  community  in  which  he  lives,  including  such  as  contagious 
diseases  and  their  distribution,  and  the  problems  of  municipal  sanita- 
tion as  thev  exist  in  the  larger  communities  to-da^'. 

The  laboratory  classes  have  increased  so  much  that  it  is  impossible  to 
accommodate  the  students  in  the  laboratory.  It  has  been  necessary, 
therefore,  to  divide  them  into  sections  and  to  double  the  time  during 
which  the  laboratory  is  open  for  work.  The  laboratory  is  now  open  all 
day  Tuesday,  Wednesday,  and  Thursday,  and  on  Saturday  mornings. 

A  life  history  case  has  recently  been  installed  in  the  biological  labora- 
tory by  Doctor  Whitney.  This  consists  of  specimens  illustrating  the 
embryology,  life  history,  and  metamorphosis  of  the  chief  groups  of  both 
vertebrates  and  invertebrates.  Part  of  the  material  for  the  case  was 
found  in  the  museum,  but  a  considerable  part  of  it  has  been  prepared 
specially  for  this  collection  by  Doctor  Whitney  and  some  of  the  students- 
in  the  department.  The  case  is  chiefly  for  the  use  of  students  in  the 
advanced  courses  in  biologv. 


CHANGES  IN  REQUIREMENTS  FOR  ADMISSION 
During  the  past  few  years,  two  tendencies  affecting  the  character  of 
college  entrance  requirements  have  developed.  The  first  of  these  has 
been  the  standardization,  or  precise  and  uniform  definition,  of  the  re- 
quirements in  each  subject  specified.  The  other  has  been  the  allowance 
of  greater  freedom  of  election,  with  a  consequent  increase  of  the  number 
of  subjects  accepted  as  satisfying  the  requirements  for  admission  to 
college.  The  combined  result  of  these  changes  is,  therefore,  to  make 
more  strict  the  requirements  in  individual  departments,  while  permit- 
ting election  from  a  wider  range  of  subjects. 

During  the  past  fifteen  yesLTS  the  teachers  both  in  colleges  and  in 
preparatory  schools  have  been  trying  to  arrive  at  an  agreement  in  both 
the  quantitative  and  qualitative  definitions  of  the  subjects  which  are 
accepted  by  the  colleges  for  admission.  Thus  the  teachers  of  Latin, 
history,  mathematics,  and  many  of  the  other  subjects,  have  established 
uniform  standards.  The  colleges,  however,  were  not  prompt  in  accept- 
ing these  changes  when  suggested  individually.  The  organization  and 
development  of  the  College  Entrance  Examination  Board  has  made  it 
practically  necessary  for  the  high  grade  institutions  which  form  its  con- 
stituency to  adopt  the  uniform  standard  definition  of  requirements  in 
the  various  subjects.     Accordingly,  Wesleyan  University  completes,  this

year,  the  necessary  readjustment  of  its  requirements  by  changes  affect- 
ing the  departments  of  Latin  (see  May  Bulletin),  history,  mathematics, 
and  ])hvsics. 

With  the  increase  in  the  number  of  students  entering  college,  there 
has  arisen  in  recent  'years  constant  difficulty  in  the  administration  of 
entrance  requirements  because  many  students  do  not  make  their  decision 
to  enter  college  until  late  in  their  preparatory  school  course,  and  so 
failed  to  meet  the  old  requirements  which  were  limited  to  a  few  subjects, 
mainly  Latin,  Greek,  and  mathematics.  The  colleges  have  gradually 
been  recognizing  this  by  increasing  the  number  of  subjects  accepted. 
During  the  past  few  years  constant  pressure  to  this  same  end  has  been 
brought  upon  the  colleges  by  the  preparatory  schools.  Recognizing  the 
reasonableness  of  certain  of  these  demands,  Wesle3'an  LTniversity  has 
this  year  taken  advanced  ground  in  increasing  the  number  of  subjects 
from  which  elections  may  be  made. 

In  Latin  the  amount  of  reading  now  required  may  be  selected  b}-  the 
schools  from  a  somewhat  larger  list  of  works  than  formerly,  the  examin- 
ation is  upon  a  smaller  list  of  prescribed  texts,  and  increased  emphasis 
is  laid  upon  sight  translation.  In  history  it  was  formerly  possible  to 
elect  only  two  units;  now  a  choice  is  possible  among  four  such  units, 
each  representing  a  full  year's  work  in  a  single  field — ancient,  mediae- 
val and  modern,  English,  and  American  history  and  civil  government. 
In  mathematics,  advanced  algebra,  counting  as  a  half  unit,  is  added  to 
the  subjects  accepted.  Biology,  counting  as  a  half  unit,  will  hereafter 
be  accepted  as  an  alternative  for  the  requirement  in  botan}-. 

For  a  complete  statement  of  the  requirements  for  entrance,  including 
full  details  of  these  changes,  reference  should  be  made  to  the  new 
edition  of  the  catalogue,  which  will  appear  in  Januar}',  191  r. 


UNIVERSITY  NOTES 
Publications. — During  the  summer  there  was  published  a  volume 
entitled  The  Installation  of  William  Arnold  Shanklin,  L.  H.  D.,  LL.  D., 
as  Ninth  President  of  Wesleyan  University.  Besides  an  introductory 
account  of  the  exercises,  the  book  contains  a  verbatim  report  of  all  the 
speeches  delivered  at  the  various  exercises  of  the  day,  reproductions  of 
all  programmes  and  other  printed  matter  connected  with  the  occasion, 
and  lists  of  the  trustees,  faculty,  delegates,  invited  guests,  and  alumni

A  new  edition  of  Undergradnate  Life  at  Wesleyan  was  published  in 
May,  and  contains  new  illustrations  and  other  changes  to  bring  it  up  to 
date. 

CoBURN  Players. — An  excellent  presentation  of  Shakespeare's  As 
You  Like  It  was  given  on  the  lawn  at  the  Foss  House  b\-  the  Coburn 
Players  on  June  13. 

.  BiTiLDiNGS. — As  usual  various  repairs  were  made  in  the  different 
buildings  during  the  summer.  The  most  important  work  was  .the  reno- 
vation of  the  first  and  second  floors  of  Observatory  Hall  to  adapt  the 
rooms  better  for  dormitory  purposes. 

At  a  special  meeting  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  on  December  2,  arrange- 
ments were  completed  for  the  purchase  of  the  Pike  house  and  lot  in 
College  Place.  This  purchase  gives  the  University  control  of  the  front- 
age on  both  sides  of  College  Place,  except  the  two  corner  lots  at  the 
south  end  of  the  street. 

Oldest  Living  Graduate. — On  July  29,  Reverend  Bostwick  Hawley, 
D.  D.,  died  at  Saratoga  Springs,  New  York.  He  was  the  last  survivor 
of  the  class  of  1838,  the  last  surviving  alumnus  whose  diploma  was 
signed  by  \Villbur  Fisk,  the  first  president  of  the  University,  and  since 
the  deaths  of  Daniel  Henry  Chase,  LL.  D.,  '33,  in  1905,  and  of  Bishop 
John  Christian  Keener,  D.  D.,  '35,  in  1906,  he  had  been  the  oldest  living 
ahunnus.  The  last  survivor  of  the  class  of  1839  was  the  Honorable  Hiram 
Willey  of  Hadlyme,  Connecticut,  who  died  March  8,  1910;  and  it  was 
supposed  that  he  was  the  oldest  living  member  of  a  Connecticut  legis- 
lature. Of  the  class  of  1840,  there  remains  a  single  survivor,  Reverend 
John  Wesley  Lindsay,  D.  D.,  of  Carlisle,  Pennsylvania,  who  was  Profes- 
sor of  Latin  and  Hebrew  in  Wesleyan  University  from  1848  to  i860. 
Thus  he  holds  the  double  honor  of  being  the  oldest  living  alumnus  and 
of  being  the  oldest  living  person  who  has  served  on  the  faculty.  There 
is  onlv  one  surviving  graduate  of  the  class  of  1841  and  none  from  the 
class  of  1842,  so  that  the  onh'  other  graduate  now  living  who  was  a 
student  under  the  administration  of  President  Fisk  is  the  Honorable 
George  Greenwood  Reynolds,  LL.  D.,  '41,  of  Brooklyn,  New  York,  who 
was  president  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  the  University  from  1887  to 
1903.  It  is  probable  that  there  still  survive  several  non-graduates  who 
were  in  the  L'niversity  under  its  first  president. 

Scholarship  Regulations. — Several  new  regulations  have  been 
recently  adopted  by  the  faculty  for  the  enforcement  of  the  standards  of 
scholarship,  especially  in  connection  with  the  demands  for  entrance  with 
advanced  .standing,  and  for  graduation  in  less  than  four  years. 


l8  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

On  May  31  the  faculty  voted :  First,  that  no  credit  be  given  hereafter 
for  work  unless  pursued  under  proper  class  instruction  in  preparatory 
school,  summer  school,  or  college;  second,  that  students  who  complete  at 
mid-year  the  required  quota  of  studies  for  graduation,  may  have  leave  of 
absence  for  the  rest  of  the  j'ear,  graduating  with  their  class  in  June; 
third,  that  students  who  claim  to  have  pursued  certain  courses  in  school, 
for  which  they  wish  advanced  standing  in  college,  must  take  examin- 
ations in  such  subjects  in  the  first  half  of  the  freshman  year.  Such 
examinations  are  to  correspond  in  degree  of  difficulty  to  those  of  the 
•corresponding  courses  in  college,  and  grades  are  to  be  reported  to  the 
office. 

On  the  same  date  the  faculty  voted  to  recommend  to  the  Board  of 
Trustees  the  following  regulations,  which  were  approved  at  the  June 
meeting  of  the  Board:  That  a  charge  of  five  dollars  per  hour  of  credit 
shall  be  made;  first,  for  examination  in  studies  not  pursued  in  college, 
whether  in  preparator}'  school,  or  in  summer  school;  second,  for  courses 
taken  in  excess  of  a  quota  of  eighteen  hours  for  the  year. 

Another  vote  of  the  faculty  on  the  same  date  expressed  the  sense  of  the 
faculty:  That  the  administration  committee  should  only  in  very  rare  and 
•exceptional  cases  allow  a  quota  exceeding  eighteen  hours  'to  a  student 
whose  average  standing  is  below  second  grade. 

Phi  Bet.\  Kappa. — The  regulations  governing  the  election  of  under- 
graduate members  of  the  society  were  changed  last  June  to  provide  for 
the  election  of  ten  per  cent  of  the  senior  class  in  November,  and  of  an 
additional  ten  per  cent  in  June.  In  pursuance  of  this  change,  the 
■chapter,  on  November  10,  elected  to  membership  Margaret  Anna  But- 
ting, Middletown;  Harold  Putnam  Frost,  Waterville,  Maine;  William 
Randol})h  Montgomery,  Stamford,  Connecticut;  and  FHwyn  Clark 
Parliii,  South  Framingham,  Massachusetts.

Professor  Dodge. — Professor  Dodge  has  taken  up  his  work  again 
this  fall,  after  a  year  of  study  and  travel  in  Europe.  He  visited  the 
more  important  psychological  laboratories  of  Germany,  the  new 
laboratory  of  the  University  of  Louvain,  and  the  various  psychological 
and  ophthalmological  laboratories  in  Paris.  At  the  Marey  Institute  in 
Paris  he  learned  the  technique  of  the  new  Edelmann  string-galvano- 
meter, an  instrument  for  recording  the  neuro-muscular  currents  of 
action.  At  Verworn's  laboratory  in  Gottingen  he  studied  the  problems 
■of  nervous  fatigue  in  connection  with  the  simple  human  reflexes.  Part 
of  the  results  of  this  work  is  being  published  in  the  Zeitschrift  fiir 
allgemeine  Physiologie.  In  Berlin,  he  set  up  and  demonstrated  dupli- 
cates of  three  pieces  of  original  apparatus  which  he  had  constructed 
for  Stumpf's  laboratory.  In  Innsbruck,  at  the  Congress  of  Experimental 
Psychologists,  he  exhibited  a  representative  set  of  his  photographic 
records  of  the  eye  movements,  showing  their  cooperation  in  various 
processes  of  visual  perception.

.  Connecticut  Geological  and  Natural  History  Survey.— Two 
bulletins  have  been  published  recently  by  the  Survey.  One  is  an  elabo- 
rate catalogue  of  the  flowering  plants  and  ferns  of  Connecticut,  pre- 
pared by  a- committee  of  the  Connecticut  Botanical  Society.  The  second 
is  a  report  on  mushrooms  by  Professor  E.  A.  White  of  the  Massachusetts 
Agricultural  College.  Professor  Rice  is  at  present  supervising  two 
other  bulletins  of  the  Survey  which  are  going  through  tlje  press.  One 
of  these  is  a  paper  on  the  Lithology  of  Connecticut,  by  Professor  Joseph 
Barren,  of  Yale  University,  and  Doctor  G.  F.  Loughlin,  of  the  Massachu-

YOUNG  MEN'S  CHRISTIAN  ASSOCIATION 

By  a  vote  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  the  general  supervision  of  the  work 
of  the  association  has  been  placed  in  the  hands  of  a  general  secretary, 
and  Chester  Miller  Knight  has  been  appointed  to  the  position.  Mr. 
Knight  received  the  degree  of  Ph.  B.  from  Syracuse  University  in  1908 
and  that  of  B.  D.  from  Drew  Theological  Seminary  in  1910.  An  office 
at  Room  i,  East  Hall,  has  been  provided  for  the  general  secretary,  and 
Mr.  Knight  may  be  found  there  from  ten  to  one  o'clock  daily. 

The  plans  for  the  courses  in  Bible  study  for  1910-11  include  the  use 
by  the  upper  classes  of  Wright's  "Will  of  God"  and  by  the  freshmen 
of  Bosworth's  "  Eife  of  Christ." 

In  the  former  course  groups  of  ten  or  twelve  men  meet  weekly  under 
the  guidance  of  leaders  chosen  from  the  faculty,  Professors  Winchester, 
Harrington,  Cady,  and  Hewitt,  and  Mr.  Knight.  The  freshmen  groups 
are  led  by  members  of  the  junior  class — Buck,  H.  D.  Jones,  Rothrock, 
and  Wallis.  More  than  one  hundred  and  twenty-five  men  have  been 
enrolled.  In  the  second  half-year  the  place  of  the  Bible  study  will  be 
taken  by  classes  in  home  and  foreign  missions  and  comparative  religions. 

The  employment  bureau,  hitherto  conducted  by  Professor  Nicolson, 
through  which  students  are  assisted  in  securing  employment  during  the 
college  year,  has  been  transferred  to  the  charge  of  the  general  secretary. 
Prospective  students  may  receive  advance  information  on  this  matter 
by  writing  to  Mr.  Knight. 

Reverend  Lynn  Harold  Hough  of  Brooklyn  spent  the  first  week  of

under  the  auspices  of  the  Association  and  affording  students  an  oppor- 
tunity for  personal  conferences. 


UNDERGRADUATE  NOTES 
DeuTscher  VerEIN.— On  June  8,  in  the  Fayerweather  Gymnasium, 
members  of  the  Verein  presented  before  an  audience  of  invited  guests 
the  third  act  of  Shakespeare's  Wie  es  euch  gefallt,  and  a  two-act  comedy 
by  Roderich  Benedix,  Die  Hochzeitsreise.  It  is  planned  to  present  in 
the  course  of  the  winter  term  a  performance  of  some  longer  drama. 
On  October  15,  the  Verein  celebrated  its  first  birthday  with  exercises 
which  included  an  illustrated  lecture  by  Mr.  F.  W.  J.  Heu.ser,  of  Columbia 
University,  on  Heinrich  Heine  und  die  Harzreise.  The  Verein  now  has 
a  full  list  of  members — twenty-five  active  members  and  five  freshmen — 
and  a  waiting  list.  A  reading-room  is  maintained  in  East  Hall  for  the 
members,  and  several  German  periodicals  are  kept  on  file.

Wesleyan  Bookstore. — The  bookstore,  which  has  been  conducted 
during  the  past  two  years  by  R.  W.  Eaton,  '12,  in  North  College,  has 
been  removed  to  larger  quarters  in  the  northern  wing  of  East  Hall.  In 
addition  to  books  and  stationery,  the  stock  includes  many  other  articles 
which  are  in  demand  among  the  students.  Mr.  Eaton  gives  employment 
to  several  students  as  clerks. 

President  of  the  College  Body. — The  president  of  the  College 
Body  during  the  present  year  is  Franklin  Seymour  Garman,  "11,  of  Cam- 
den, New  Jersey. 

Underclass  Societies. — By  action  of  the  undergraduates  in  the 
spring  of  1909,  the  freshman  class  societies  were  abolished.  These  were 
Kappa  Gamma,  which  had  been  organized  in  1872;  and  Pi  Kappa  Tau, 
which  had  been  established  in  1S91.  In  June,  1910,  similar  action  was 
taken  for  the  abolition  of  the  sophomore  class  societies,  Theta  Nu 
Epsilon,  established  in  1870,  and  Zeta  Phi,  established  in  1877.  This 
action  was  confirmed  by  a  vote  of  the  faculty  on  October  25,  forbidding 
any  student  to  hold  membership  in  any  freshman  or  sophomore  class 
secret  society. 

Athletic  Finance. — On  May  18,  after  investigating  the  methods  of 
financing  undergraduate  athletics  in  other  colleges,  a  committee  re- 
ported to  the  College  Body  a  scheme  for  the  purpose,  which  was  adopted 
and  is  being  put  in  operation  this  year.  The  scheme  provides  for  a 
tax  of  fifteen  dollars  on  each  undergraduate.  The  income  thus  derived 
is  apportioned  for  the  expenses  of  the  College  Body,  and  of  the  five 
sports,  football,  basketball,  baseball,  track,  and  tennis.  The  payment 
of  the  tax  entitles  the  student  to  attendance  on  all  home  games  and  to 
the  other  privileges  heretofore  conveyed  by  membership  in  the  athletic 
association. 

Debate. — Of  the  regular  speakers  on  the  debate  teams  of  last  year 
only  three  remained  at  the  beginning  of  the  present  college  year.  The 
Debating  Union  was  organized  with  the  following  officers:  President, 
Wriston,  '11;  manager,  Montgomery,  '11;  assistant  manager,  Coit,  '12. 
Trials  have  been  held  for  the  speakers  in  the  triangular  league  debates, 
the  subject  of  which  is  the  income  tax  amendment.  Montgomery,  '11, 
and  PanunziOj'ii,  withH.  D.  Jones,  '12,  as  alternate,  were  chosen  to  speak 
at  Williamstown  on  the  negative  side.  Wriston,  '11,  and  Hancock,  '13, 
with  Buck,  '12,  as  alternate,  were  selected  to  defend  the  affirmative 
against  Amherst  at  Middletovvn. 

The  members  of  the  freshman  class  who  are  interested  in  debate  have 
organized  a  freshman  debating  society,  with  Raymond  as  manager.  On 
December  8,   the   freshman   team,   composed  of   Mott   and   Raymond, 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  23 

defeated  the  sophomore  team,  Murphy  and  Rice,  in  the  annual  interclass 
debate. 

A  chapter  of  Delta  Sigma  Rho,  a  society  whose  membership  is  con- 
fined to  intercollegiate  debaters,  was  installed  in  June  and  the  following 
men  initiated:  Brengle,  '10,  Roberts,  '10,  Stuntz,  '10,  and  Wriston,  '11. 
At  a  second  initiation  held  in  October,  Panunzio,  '11,  and  Judd,  '11,  were 
added. 

JUNIOR  EXHIBITION 
The  dropping  of  the  old  requirement  of  junior  essays  has  made  neces- 
sary some  change  in  the  method  of  appointment  to  the  Junior  Exhibi- 
tion. Hereafter  the  sixteen  juniors  whose  standing  in  sophomore  essays 
is  highest  will  compete  in  a  declamation  contest.  Of  the  contestants 
the  eight  who  attain  highest  rank  in  composition  and  declamation  will 
be  appointed  to  speak  at  the  Junior  Exhibition. 


NEW  ALUMNI  RECORD 
The  trustees  at  the  annual  meeting  in  June,  1909,  authorized  the  pub- 
lication of  a  new  edition  of  the  Alumni  Record,  under  the  editorship  of 
Professor  Nicolson.  The  material  was  collected  by  May  of  this  year, 
has  since  been  edited,  and  will  be  delivered  to  the  publishers  early  in 
January.  It  is  expected  that  the  book  will  be  ready  by  April  or  May  of 
next  spring.  The  price  will  probably  be  two  dollars  (bound  copy,  two 
dollars  and  a  half).  The  record  of  alumni  has  been  prepared  in  the  same 
form  in  which  it  appeared  in  the  edition  of  1S83,  with  the  addition  of 
the  fraternity  relationship  of  each  alumnus.  The  Record  of  1883  was 
the  most  complete  college  record  published  up  to  that  time,  and  this 
new  edition,  if  issued  without  abridgment,  will,  it  is  thought,  surpass 
that  of  any  other  college  in  fullness  of  information.  It  will  include, 
among  other  things,  the  full  family  record,  with  birth  and  death  of 
children,  marriage  of  daughters,  gradtiation  from  college,  etc.  The 
non-graduate  record  this  year  will  probably  be  less  full  than  that 
of  1883.  The  record  of  honorary  alumni  and  of  the  faculty  (not 
graduates)  will  be  about  as  before.  The  bibliography  will  be  omitted 
in  this  edition  as  a  separate  part  of  the  book,  but  in  the  case  of  the  fac- 
ulty and  the  graduates  a  more  or  less  complete  list  will  be  given  of  the 
books  which  they  have  written  or  edited.  So  far  as  can  be  foreseen,  the 
book  when  published  will  contain  from  800  to  1,000  pages.  A  circular 
will  be  sent  at  an  early  date  to  alumni  and  former  students,  giving  full 
particulars,  and  asking  for  subscriptions.

WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY 


TYTTrH  slight  interruption  President  Shanklin  has  devoted  himself 
throughout  the  collegiate  year  to  the  raising  of  the  additional 
million  for  endowment.  The  restilts  thus  far  have  been  gratifying,  and 
afford  good  grounds  for  the  confidence  of  the  President  and  the  special 
committee  of  the  trustees  that  the  fund  will  be  completed  before 
December  31,  191 1. 


On  February  fifteenth,  Henry  Cruise  Murphy  Ingraham,  LL.  D., 
President  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  Wesleyan  Universit}-,  died  at  his 
home  in  Brooklyn  in  his  seventy-third  year.  Elected  a  trustee  in  1S97, 
his  eminently  judicial  and  yet  progressive  type  of  mind  marked  him 
out  as  the  most  suitable  head  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  upon  the  retire- 
ment of  Judge  Reynolds  as  President  of  the  Board  in  1903.  Judge 
Ingraham  was  a  man  of  great  breadth  of  view  and  universally  recognized 
as  a  wise  counsellor  and  an  able  administrator.  His  incorruptible  integ- 
rity, his  unfaltering  devotion  to  dut}-,  and  his  unobtrusive  kindliness  in 
all  his  personal  relations  endear  his  memory  as  a  noble  representative 
of  the  college  he  loved  and  served  so  well.. 


4  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

At  the  outbreak  of  the  Civil  War,  students  of  Wesleyan  University 
were  among  the  first  to  enlist,  and  took  an  honorable  part  in  many 
important  engagements.  On  the  coming  Baccalaureate  Sunday  it  is 
hoped  that  all  the  Wesleyan  survivors  of  the  Civil  War  will  be  present 
to  participate  in  a  reunion,  which  will  be  of  unique  interest.  It  is 
expected  that  there  will  be  brief  addresses  by  several  Wesleyan  veterans. 


The  resignation  of  Mr.  Howard  Roland  Reiter  as  Director  of  the 
Gymnasium  is  a  source  of  personal  regret  even  to  those  who  have  com- 
paratively little  interest  in  athletics.  During  the  six  years  of  his 
service  at  Wesleyan  Mr.  Reiter's  influence  has  been  uniformly  exerted 
in  upbuilding  manliness  of  character  and  genuine  sportsmanship  in  all 
athletic  contests  and  has  been  felt  far  outside  of  his  immediate  field  of 
labor.  The  best  wishes  of  his  colleagues  in  the  Faculty  and  of  every 
undergraduate  go  with  him  to  his  new  and  more  responsible  position. 


The  completion  of  the  new  Alumni  Record,  the  first  unabridged 
edition  since  1883,  will  be  a  great  satisfaction  to  every  one  interested  in 
the  history  of  Wesleyan  University.  Every  detail  of  importance  in  the 
career  of  all  the  graduates  and  non-graduates  since  the  foundation  of 
the  University  is  here  accurately  and  compactly  presented,  together 
with  an  elaborate  index.  The  low  price  of  the  book  (two  dollars  a 
copy,  bound  copies  two  dollars  and  a  half)  will  hardly  pay  the  cost  of 
publishing,  but  the  alumni  and  other  friends  of  the  University  are 
urged  to  subscribe  liberally  so  as  to  make  the  deficit  as  small  as  pos- 
sible. Application  for  copies  should  be  made  to  the  editor,  Professor 
Frank  W.  Nicolson. 


NINETIETH  BIRTHDAY  OF  JUDGE  REYNOLDS 

At  a  meeting  of  the  F'acnlty  held  on  February  4,  191 1,  Professor  Rice 
read  the  following  letter  which  he  had  composed  at  the  request  of  the 
President,  to  be  sent  to  Judge  Reynolds  on  his  ninetieth  birthday.     It 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  5 

was  voted  that  the  members  of  the  faculty  append  their  signatures  to 
the  letter,  and  that  it  be  incorporated  in  the  minutes  of  the  faculty. 

To  the  Honorable  George  Greemvood  Reynolds,  LL.  D.: 

Honored  Sir: — We,  the  faculty  of  Wesleyan  University,  desire  to 
offer  our  most  hearty  congratulations  on  your  ninetieth  birthday. 

We  are  grateful  for  the  3-ears  of  life,  so  far  exceeding  the  three  score 
and  ten  of  ordinary  expectation,  which  a  kind  Providence  has  given 
you.  We  respect  those  traits  of  character  to  which,  we  believe,  in  large 
degree,  your  long  life  has  been  due.  We  love  to  honor  one  who,  under 
the  strain  of  exacting  duties  and  great  responsibilities,  has  maintained 
a  serenity  of  spirit,  and  a  temperance  in  thought  and  deed,  which  have 
preserved  mental  and  physical  vigor  from  premature  exhaustion,  and 
have  made  possible  so  long  a  career  of  usefulness. 

We  are  grateftil  for  the  honors  which  you  have  gained  in  your  pro- 
fessional life.  The  brilliant  success  of  your  career  at  the  bar  has  been 
won  so  honorably  that  your  associates  have,  without  envy,  rejoiced  in 
your  achievements.  When  called  to  the  bench,  you  have  adorned  the 
high  position  by  your  legal  learning,  your  judicial  wisdom,  and  your 
spotless  integrity. 

We  rejoice  in  your  career  as  a  member  of  the  Christian  church.  You 
have  been  abundant  in  service  in  the  local  churches  with  which  you 
have  been  associated,  and  your  counsels  in  the  general  conference  of 
your  own  denomination,  and  in  the  boards  presiding  over  the  benevo- 
lent work  of  the  church,  have  been  of  the  highest  value. 

Especially,  with  grateful  pride,  we  think  of  your  relation  to  Wesleyan 
University.  You  are  now  our  oldest  alumnus  in  active  professional  life, 
and,  with  one  exception,  our  oldest  living  alumnus.  When  a  change  in 
the  charter  of  the  college  first  gave  to  the  body  of  alumni  the  privilege 
of  representation  in  the  board  of  trustees,  you  were  fitly  chosen  as  one 
of  the  first  group  of  their  representatives.  You  have  been  repeatedly 
elected  to  that  position  by  your  fellow  alumni  with  substantial  unani- 
mity until  you  are  now  one  of  the  two  senior  members  of  our  board. 
For  sixteen  years,  with  graceful  dignity,  sound  judgment,  and  loyal 
devotion  you  have  served  as  president  of  the  board.  We  heartily 
appreciate  the  faithful  and  effective  service  which  you  have  rendered  to 
the  college  in  the  forty  years  of  your  trusteeship.  We  are  grateful  for 
the  gifts  in  times  of  need,  in  which  your  love  for  the  college  has  found 
expression,  and  especially  for  the  gift  which  so  auspiciously  heralded 
the  beginning  of  a  new  administration.  As  we  think  of  the  purity  of 
your  life,  and  your  abundant  usefulness  in  church  and  state,  we  love  to 


6  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

recognize  you  as  preeminently  the  representative  alumnus  of  Wesleyan 
University. 

Grateful  for  the  four  score  years  and  ten  of  life  already  granted  you, 
grateful  for  the  health  and  soundness  of  mind  and  body  which  still  are 
yours,  we  cherish  the  hope  and  join  in  the  prayer  of  your  many  friends, 
that  you  may  long  be  spared  for  vigorous  life  and  fruitful  service. 

Serus  in  caelum  redeas. 
Wesleyan  University.

THE  BISHOP  HENDRIX  ANNIVERSARY 

The  friends  of  Bishop  Eugene  Russell  Hendrix,  '67,  celebrated  the 
completion  of  his  twenty-fifth  year  in  the  episcopacy  of  the  Methodist 
Episcopal  Church,  South,  at  Kansas  City,  Missouri,  on  May  i8th.  His 
Alma  Mater  was  represented  on  this  occasion  by  Professor  Clarence 
Abiathar  Waldo,  '75,  of  Washington  University,  St.  Louis,  Missouri, 
who  presented  a  congratulatory  address  from  the  faculty  of  Wesleyan 
L^niversity. 


HENRY'  CRUISE  MURPHY  INGRAHAM 

Henrv  Cruise  Murphy  Ingraham  was  born  May  2,  1838,  in  Amenia, 
New  Y'ork.  He  died  February  15,  191 1,  in  Brooklyn,  New  York.  He 
prepared  for  college  in  the  academies  at  Amenia  and  Wilbraham,  and 
was  graduated  from  Wesleyan  University  in  1864.  During  his  student 
years  he  showed  the  same  breadth  of  intelligence,  fine  literary  taste, 
clearness  of  judgment,  force  of  character,  and  stainless  integrity,  which 
made  him  so  influential  and  so  useful  in  later  life. 

After  his  graduation  he  studied  law,  and  began  the  practice  of  the 
profession  in  Brooklyn,  New  York,  in  1866.  He  kept  an  office  in  the 
same  street  until  his  death.  His  thorough  knowledge  of  law  and  his 
genuine  honesty  won  for  him  confidence  and  honor.  Matters  of  great 
importance  were  constantly  entrusted  to  him.  For  several  years  he 
was  counsel  to  the  Bridge  Commission  of  New  York  and  Brookh-n. 
He  was  president  of  the  Brooklyn  Bar  Association  from  1899  to  1903. 
In  1903  he  received  the  degree  of  LL.  D.  from  Wesleyan. 

While  he  held  at  no  time  any  public  office,  he  was  yet  a  pu])lic  spirited 
citiz-U,  ready  to  give  time  and  service  to  every  good  cause.     He  was 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  7 

particularly  a  trusted  counsellor  in  the  affairs  of  the  Methodist  Epis- 
copal Church,  of  which  he  was  a  life-long  member.  He  was  a  trustee 
of  Peking  University,  China;  a  member  of  the  Board  of  Education  of 
the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church;  and  a  member  of  the  Board  of  Man- 
agers of  the  American  Bible  Societ}-. 

He  was  always  most  deeply  interested  in  the  affairs  of  Wesleyan  Uni- 
versity. His  family  was  one  of  those  most  intimately  related  with  the 
college.  Two  of  his  brothers,  Richard  and  William  Murphy,  were 
graduates  of  the  college,  and  a  third,  Timothy  Murphy,  took  a  part 
of  the  college  course  in  Wesleyan.  Mr.  Ingraham  married  Winifred  E. 
Andrews,  a  daughter  of  Bishop  Edward  G.  Andrews,  of  the  class  of  1847. 
Of  Mr.  Ingraham's  children,  three  have  been  graduated  from  Wesleyan 
University,  Henry  A.,  Edward  A.,  and  Olin.  Mr.  Ingraham  was  elected 
a  member  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  Wesleyan  University  in  1897,  and 
in  1903  he  became  president  of  the  board.  He  was  no  merely  nominal 
member  of  the  board.  He  gave  unstintedl}-  his  time  and  thought  and 
strength  to  the  interests  of  the  college. 

In  the  midst  of  a  busy  life,  he  was  always  a  thoughtful  reader  of  the 
best  literature.  He  was  a  true  friend,  and  his  home  life  was  remarkably 
beautiful.  His  character  was  profoundly  religious,  and  in  the  local 
church  of  which  he  was  a  member  he  was  always  a  potent  influence. 
In  the  last  years  of  his  life,  he  was  well  aware  that  he  was  a  victim  of 
incurable  disease,  and  that  the  end  might  come  suddenly;  but  he  bore 
himself  patiently,  cheerfully,  trustfully,  not  brooding  over  his  own 
mortal  wound,  but  giving  his  thought  lovingly  and  loyally  to  his 
clients,  to  his  family,  to  the  University,  and  to  the  church.  His  loss 
will  be  deeply  felt  in  many  circles;  nowhere,  save  in  his  own  home,  so 
deeply  as  in  the  University  which  he  loved  so  much  and  served  so 
faithfullv. 


THE  ALUMNI  RECORD 

In  accordance  with  the  authorization  of  the  board  of  trustees,  a  com- 
plete alumni  record  of  the  college  has  been  prepared  and  placed  in  the 
publishers'  hands.  This  will  be  the  first  complete  alumni  record  pub- 
lished by  the  college  since  1883.  That  edition  was  the  most  complete 
of  any  college  record  that  had  appeared  up  to  that  time.  The  edition 
of  191 1,  while  not  so  complete  as  regards  non-graduates  and  biblio- 
graphy, will,  in  other  respects,  be  even  more  complete  than  the  earlier 
edition.     The  book  will  contain  the  following: 


8  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

(i)  An  historical  sketch  of  the  college  by  Professor  Winchester,  in 
continuation  of  the  sketch  in  the  edition  of  1883;  (2)  a  continuation  of 
the  annals  of  the  college  from  1883  to  the  present  time;  (3)  a  list  of  the 
trustees  and  faculty  of  the  college,  from  the  beginning,  with  a  record 
of  the  members  of  the  faculty  not  graduates  of  the  college,  complete 
except  as  regards  famih-  records;  (4)  the  record  of  the  alumni,  giving 
the  following  items  of  information:  (a)  number  in  order  of  graduation 
and  name  in  full;  (d)  relationship  to  other  graduates  or  former  students; 
(c)  college  degrees  from  Wesleyau  or  elsewhere,  with  dates;  {d)  member- 
ship in  Greek  letter  fraternities  now  in  existence  at  Wesleyau,  including 
Phi  Beta  Kappa,  and  in  the  Commons  Club;  (e)  date  and  place  of  birth; 
(/)  record  for  each  year  since  graduation,  including  statement  of 
positions  of  honor  and  trust;  (g)  a  bibliography  giving  titles  and  dates 
of  publication  of  books  written  or  edited;  in  case  there  are  a  considerable 
number  of  such  works,  the  titles  of  only  three  or  four  of  the  most 
important  will  be  given;  (k)  if  married,  date  of  marriage,  with  maiden 
name  and  residence  of  wife;  (/)  names  of  children,  with  dates  of  birth 
and  of  death  if  deceased,  names  of  husbands  of  married  daughters, 
degrees  and  date  of  graduation  from  Wesleyan  or  other  institutions; 
(J)  address,  or,  in  case  of  death,  date  and  place  of  decease;  (5)  the 
record  of  non-graduates,  giving  the  same  information  as  for  the  gradu- 
ates, except  for  the  condensation  of  the  statement  concerning  career 
since  leaving  W^esleyan,  and  the  omission  of  the  family  record;  (6) 
record  of  the  honorarj-  alumni  on  the  same  plan  as  the  record  of  the 
non-graduates;  (7)  record  of  those  who,  not  being  graduates  of  Wesleyan, 
have  received  masters'  degrees  on  examination;  (8)  a  general  index  of 
all  names  in  the  book,  with  page  or  other  reference. 

The  book  will  appear  about  the  first  of  June.  It  is  hardly  expected 
that  enough  will  be  received  from  the  sale  of  the  book  to  pay  the  cost 
of  publishing,  but  the  alumni  and  other  friends  of  the  college  are  urged 
to  subscribe  liberally  so  as  to  make  the  deficit  as  small  as  possible. 
The  price  of  the  book  has  been  fixed  at  two  dollars  a  copy,  bound  copies 
two  dollars  and  a  half.  Subscriptions  should  be  sent  to  Professor  F.  W. 
Nicolson,  secretary  of  the  faculty. 


NEW  ALUMNI  COMMITTEE 

Early  last  winter  President  Shanklin  held  a  conference  with  Woodrow 
Wilson,  then  president  of  Princeton  University,  relative  to  the  Princeton 
Alumni  Council.  In  January,  Professor  Nicolson  spent  a  da}'  at  Princeton 
with  Secretary  Murray,  the  head  of  the  Princeton  alumni  organization. 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  9 

As  a  result  of  these  investigations  a  committee  of  Wesleyan  men  has 
been  formed,  to  which  the  alumni  associations  of  New  York,  Phila-

by  her  father,  the  Rev.  Daniel  Wise,  D.  D.  She  thus  not  only  endorses 
his  noble  benefaction,  but  joins  with  him  in  a  contribution  to  a  cause

WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  II 

MINUTES   ADOPTED   BY   THE    BOARD   OF   TRUSTEES 

During  the  year  death  has  removed  two  useful  and  honored  members 
of  this  board,  both  graduates  of  the  class  of  1864. 

The  Reverend  Charles  Henry  Buck,  Doctor  of  Divinity,  of  Yonkers, 
New  York,  became  a  trustee  of  Wesleyan  University  in  1902,  and  was 
treasurer  of  the  board  from  1902  until  1907. 

His  death  on  January  12,  1910,  was  a  loss  to  the  Methodist  Church, 
which  he  had  served  with  efficiency  and  distinction;  to  the  University 
whose  loyal  son  he  was,  and  to  this  board,  which  had  learned  to  rely  on 
his  prudence,  his  industry,  his  capacity  for  business,  his  generosity,  and 
his  good  sense.  In  daily  life  his  pure  heart  and  sound  mind  informed 
by  travel  and  work  and  large  experience  of  men  found  expression  with 
unfailing  courtesy,  modesty,  and  good  humor. 

We  offer  to  his  family  our  respectful  sympathy. 


George  Slocum  Bennett,  of  Wilkes-Barre,  Pennsylvania,  was  a  member 
of  this  board  for  twenty  years  and  until  his  death  on  January  2,  1910,  he 
served  the  University  with  diligence.  He  was  wise  in  counsel  and  liberal 
in  giving.  His  enthusiasm  and  steadfast  loyalty  were  examples  to  those 
who  were  associated  with  him.  Conscience  controlled  his  life,  and  he 
was  dutiful  and  efficient  in  his  church  and  active  and  progressive  in  the 
philanthropies  of  his  native  city,  but  in  work  for  the  University  his 
sense  of  duty  was  quickened  by  the  eager  college  spirit  which  glowed 
as  brightly  in  manhood  as  in  youth. 

We  respectfully  tender  our  sympathy  to  his  family. 


Bishop  Cyrus  David  Foss  graduated  from  Wesleyan  University  in  1S54. 
He  was  one  of  three  brothers  who,  in  their  respective  classes,  were 
distinguished  for  brilliant  scholarship.  He  became  president  of  the 
University  in  1875,  and  filled  that  office  until  1880,  when  he  became  a 
bishop  of  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church.  He  continued  to  be  a 
trustee  of  the  University  until  his  death  on  January  29,  1910.  Valedic- 
torian of  his  class,  he  continued  to  be  a  distinguished  scholar.  As 
president,  he  was  a  successful  administrator,  and  his  relations  to  the 
faculty  and  the  students  were  all  that  could  be  desired.  He  rendered 
important  service  in  increasing  and  wisely  expending  the  revenues  of 
the  college.     As  a  trustee  he  was  regular  at  the  meetings  of  the  board; 


12  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

he  took  an  active  part  in  its  deliberations  and  exercised  over  his  col- 
leagues the  influence  that  belonged  to  wisdom  and  experience.  He 
spoke  eloquently  at  the  public  festivals  of  the  University.  He  was 
highly  honored  among  the  bishops  of  the  church  and  rendered  varied 
and  excellent  services  as  a  citizen  and  as  a  preacher.  But  we  think 
rather  of  the  nature  of  the  man  than  of  the  things  he  did.  Whatever 
he  accomplished  was  the  expression  of  a  noble  character.  He  was  an 
embodiment  of  manliness  and  abounding  strength.  His  religious  faith 
was  ardent  and  unwavering.  Deeply  pious,  he  was  without  a  trace  of 
asceticism  and  gloom.  His  plan  of  life  was  drawn  by  duty,  but  it 
took  account  of  merriment  as  well  as  wisdom,  of  enjoyment  as  well 
as  endurance,  and  found  place  for  the  exercise  of  affections  and  tastes, 
sympathies  and  enthusiasms.  No  name  sooner  than  his  came  to  our 
minds  when  we  thought  of  what  Wesleyan  had  accomplished  in  the  past 
or  by  what  ideals  it  should  direct  its  future. 

We  shall  miss  him  at  the  meetings  of  our  board.  We  shall  miss  him 
as  an  example,  and  with  all  our  pride  and  admiration  there  is  mingled 
an  affection  which  may  make  the  expression  of  our  sympathy  a  not  un- 
worthv  offering  to  his  familv. 


The  board  of  trustees  express  their  deep  sense  of  the  loss  the  Univer- 
sity has  sustained  in  the  death  of  Samuel  Ward  Loper,  for  sixteen  years 
curator  of  the  nmseum.  The  collections  of  the  L"niversit\-  are  a  monu- 
ment to  his  zeal  and  untiring  industry.  Some  of  them  were  gathered 
by  his  skill  and  labor,  all  of  them  have  been  preserved  and  made  more 
iTseful  by  his  assiduous  care.  We  desire  to  associate  ourselves  with  the 
discriminating  appreciation  of  his  work  and  character  contained  in  the 
minute  of  the  faculty  of  April  20,  1910.  His  name  belongs  on  that 
shining  list  of  loval,  truth-loving,  unselfish  men,  whose  lives  have 
honored  the  L^niversity  and  who  have  given  to  it  the  full  measure  of 
devotion. 

We  tender  our  respectful  sympathy  to  his  family.

ment of  the  library  has  been  increased  by  the  transfer  from  income  of 
$725.62.  A  friend  of  the  department  of  chemistry  has  given  $150  to 
establish  a  special  library  fund,  the  income  of  the  fund  to  be  spent

The  Connecticut  Gamma  of  Phi  Beta  Kappa  some  years  ago  gave  the 
money  to  purchase  vols.  1-49  of  the  Deutsche  allgemeine  Biographic. 
Volumes  50-55  were  recently  bought  with  money  from  the  same  source. 

Two  additional  catalogue  cases,  each  containing  twenty  drawers,  were 
purchased  early  in  the  year.  All  the  author  cards  of  standard  size  have 
been  arranged  by  themselves.  It  is  now  necessary  to  examine  cards 
arranged  in  two  alphabets  in  order  to  ascertain  whether  the  library 
contains  a  given  book  by  a  given  author.  This  unfortunate  state  of 
affairs  must  continue  until  the  recataloguing  is  completed. 

A  charging  desk  has  been  established,  and  all  books  are  charged  by  a 
desk  attendant.  The  reserved  books  have  been  placed  together  near 
the  charging  desk,  and  the  name  of  each  borrower  of  a  reserved  book  is 
registered.     No  books  have  been  lost  from  the  reserve  shelves  this  year. 

Connecticut  Library  Association. — The  Connecticut  Library  Asso- 
ciation held  its  annual  meeting  in  Willbur  Fisk  Hall  on  Wednesday,

tions of  the  Bible.  The  collection  was  made  up  of  facsimile  reprints, 
or  early  editions  of  the  different  translations,  including  Wycliffe's  Tes- 
tament, Tyndale's  Testament,  Coverdale's  Bible,  the  Great  Bible,  the 
Geneva  or  Breeches  Bible,  the  Bishop's  Bible,  the  Douay  Bible,  and  the 
King  James  version.  Professor  Mead  kindly  loaned  for  exhibition  a 
copy  of  the  Genevan  version  of  the  New  Testament  printed  in  Edinburgh 
by  Andrew  Hart  in  1610.  This  is  one  of  the  earliest  editions  of  the 
English  Testameiit  printed  in  Scotland.  A  cop}-  of  the  instructions  to 
the  translators  of  the  King  James  version  was  included  in  the  collec- 
tion, as  was  also  a  facsimile  and  explanation  of  the  Holbein  border  of 
the  Great  Bible  of  1539.  The  copy  of  the  Bishop's  Bible  exhibited  dated 
back  to  1585,  while  the  earliest  edition  of  the  King  James  version  to  be 
found  in  the  library  was  that  printed  in  Cambridge  by  John  Hayes  in 
1674,  with  title-page  engraved  b}-  John  Drapentiere. 


DEPARTMENT  NOTEvS 

Latin. — An  unusually  large  proportion  of  the  courses  in  the  Latin 
department  will  be  offered  during  the  academic  year  1911-12,  with 
the  expectation  that  some  of  those  that  would  naturally  be  given  during 
the  following  year  will  be  then  omitted.  Students  should  note  this 
fact  in  making  their  elections  this  spring,  and  consult  the  instructors  in 
the  department  with  reference  to  such  courses  as  are  desired  during  the 
next  two  years. 

A  number  of  photographs  have  been  recently  purchased  in  Italy  for 
the  walls  of  the  Latin  class-room. 

Greek. — Course  IV,  the  history  of  Greek  literature,  will  be  given 
two  hours  a  week  next  year,  instead  of  one  as  heretofore,  and  a  reading 
knowledge  of  Greek  will  not  be  required  for  admission  to  this  course. 

Romance  LanguagEvS. — A  course  in  advanced  Spanish  will  be  given 
next  year.  It  will  consist  in  a  general  outline  of  the  literature  of  Spain, 
with  especial  reference  to  the  masterpieces  of  its  chief  writers. 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  I  7 

English  Language. — George  Wiley  Sherbnrn,  '06,  is  to  conduct  a 
portion  of  the  work  in  freshman  English  composition  next  year.  For 
a  considerable  part  of  the  present  collegiate  year  he  has  been  in  charge 
of  the  Department  of  English  in  Beloit  College. 

Philosophy. — The  equipment  of  the  psychological  laboratory  has 
been  substantially  increased  during  the  past  year.  Two  alternating 
current  episcotisters;  a  motor-driven,  variable  speed,  kymograph;  and 
a  Marbe  color  wheel  are  among  the  additions  for  general  class  work. 
For  special  research  and  the  use  of  advanced  students  a  group  of 
exceedingly  sensitive  apparatus  has  been  provided.  It  consists  of  a 
small  Edelmann  string  galvanometer  with  accessories,  and  an  unique 
microscope  recorder  of  great  accuracy  and  low  latency.  As  set  up,  the 
group  constitutes  a  serviceaV^le  cardiogram  station,  which  it  is  hoped 
will  in  time  prove  useful  to  other  departments  of  the  University  and  to 
the  community.  Its  immediate  service,  however,  will  be  in  the  study 
of  the  conditions  of  fatigue.  This  important  group  of  apparatus  was 
provided  for  by  D.  A.  Cutler,  ex-'o3,  in  memory  of  Miss  Zelia  A.  Cutler, 
'03.     Suitable  inscriptions  have  been  attached  to  the  several  pieces.     • 

Because  of  Professor  Armstrong's  leave  of  absence  for  the  year,  the 
department  in  1911-12  will  be  in  charge  of  Professor  Dodge;  although 
Professor  Armstrong  may  be  at  home  for  the  opening  months  of  the 
first  semester  and  conduct  part  of  the  work.  Courses  I,  II,  IV,  V, 
IX,  and  X  will  be  offered;  a  part  of  the  readings  from  Course  XI  will 
be  included  in  Courses  IX  and  X;  Courses  III,  VI,  VII,  and  VIII  will 
be  omitted. 

Physics. — The  direct  current  hitherto  supplied  bj'  the  Electric  Light 
Compau}^  for  power  and  for  experimental  purposes  was  discontinued 
last  winter.  In  order  to  furnish  the  direct  current  that  is  needed,  a 
small  motor-generator  set  has  been  installed  in  Fisk  Hall,  a  mercury 
arc  rectifier  in  Judd  Hall,  and  a  7^  horse-power  induction  motor  in 
the  Scott  Laboratory,  which  is  coupled  to  a  generator  already  owned  by 
the  department  of  physics.  All  this  apparatus  was  purchased  from  the 
General  Electric  Company. 

An  imported  hand  tachometer  has  been  purchased  for  measuring 
speeds  of  revolution  from  150  to  6,000  per  minute. 

GeoloCtY. — Course  I,  physical  geography,  is  given  the  present  year 
by  Walter  Ransom  Barrows,  B.  A.,  Assistant  in  Instruction  in  the 
Geological  Department  in  Yale  Universit3^  Courses  II,  III,  IV,  ele- 
mentary and  advanced  courses  in  geology,  are  given  by  Professor  Rice. 
It  has  been  deemed  necessary  to  omit  Courses  V  and  VI,  on  account 


1 8  WESLEY  AN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

of  the  large  amount  of  administrative  work  devolving  upon  Professor 
Rice  by  reason  of  President  Shanklin's  frequent  absences  on  University 
business. 

It  is  the  expectation  that  Professor  Rice  will  have  leave  of  absence 
next  year.  It  is  probable  that  in  that  year  no  courses  will  be  given  in 
the  department  except  Course  I,  physical  geography. 


YOUNG  MEN'S  CHRISTIAN  ASSOCIATION 

The  Young  Men's  Christian  Association  is  extending  its  work  so  as  to 
claim  the  attention  and  active  cooperation  of  every  man  in  college. 
This  year  the  active  members  number  225.  The  plan  for  the  weekly 
meetings  has  been  to  have  one  devotional  meeting  a  month,  while  at  the 
others  outside  speakers  of  some  note  have  been  secured  to  give  informal 
talks  on  the  various  problems  that  confront  the  college  man.  Forty 
weekly  meetings  have  been  held  with  an  average  attendance  of  about 
forty.  At  various  places  in  the  neighborhood  145  meetings  have  been 
conducted  by  students,  and  the  attendance  at  these  is  estimated  at  4,500. 
It  is  planned  to  extend  the  neighborhood  work  next  year  to  include 
work  of  a  social  settlement  character. 

In  Bible  study  one  hundred  men  were  enrolled  and  the  average 
attendance  was  52  per  cent.  Mission  study  classes  have  been  maintained 
this  year  with  more  system  and  success  than  in  the  past.  Three  courses 
were  offered  as  follows:  New  China — The  Educational  Aspect,  led  by 
Ex-President  Raymond;  Comparative  Religions,  led  by  Professor  Hewitt; 
The  Decisive  Hour  of  Christian  Missions,  led  by  Mr.  Knight.  In  these 
courses  33  men  were  enrolled,  and  the  average  attendance  was  69  per 
cent.  The  association  has  raised  $500  this  year  for  the  educational 
missionary  work  in  West  China  that  is  being  conducted  by  Joe  Beech, 
'99.  Next  year  a  student  volunteer  conference  of  the  colleges  of  the 
Connecticut  valley  will  be  held  jointly  at  Wesleyan  and  the  Berkeley 
Divinity  School.  In  addition  to  the  reception  to  the  freshman  class  at 
the  beginning  of  the  year,  a  reception  to  Governor  Weeks,  President 
Shanklin,  and  the  faculty  was  given  in  the  gymnasium  on  December  19, 
1910.  The  attendance  was  about  200.  The  volunteer  band  also  gave  a 
reception  on  April  3  at  the  Delta  Kappa  Epsilon  House  to  Mr.  J.  C. 
Robbins,  travelling  secretary  of  the  Student  Volunteer  Movement. 
Delegates  from  the  Wesleyan  association  have  attended  conferences 
at  New  Haven,  Springfield,  Amherst,  and  Hartford,  and  a  large  num- 
ber have  alreadv  declared  their  intention  of  attending  the  Northfield 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  1 9 

conference,  June  23-July  2.  Mr.  Knight,  the  general  secretary,  has  had 
charge  of  an  employment  bureau.  He  has  helped  seventy-five  men  to 
find  work  during  the  college  year,  and  has  already  assisted  fifteen  to 
summer  positions. 


DEBATE 

The  work  of  the  debating  teams  this  year  has  returned  toward  the 
standard  of  success  which  characterized  their  work  for  several  years. 
In  the  triangular  league  contests  with  Amherst  and  Williams,  Wesleyan 
won  from  the  former  and  lost  to  the  latter.  Amherst  defeated  Williams 
making  the  result  a  triple  tie.  The  question  was:  "Resolved,  that  the 
federal  government  should  have  power  to  impose  an  income  tax,  not 
apportioned  among  the  states  according  to  population.  Constitutionality 
is  waived."  In  each  case  the  home  team  upheld  the  affirmative  side  of 
the  question.  The  Wesleyan  team  which  debated  against  Amherst  at 
Middletown  consisted  of  Hancock,  '13,  and  Wriston,  '11,  with  Buck,  '12, 
as  alternate;  and  the  negative  team  which  debated  at  Williams  consisted 
of  Panunzio,  '11,  and  Montgomery,  '11,  with  H.  D.  Jones,  '12,  as  alternate. 

There  were,  as  last  year,  two  spring  debates,  one  with  Bowdoin  in 
Middletown,  and  the  other  with  New  York  University  in  New  York. 
The  attempt  to  arrange  a  triangular  contest  failed.  Both  debates  were 
held  on  April  7,  the  question  being:  "Resolved,  that,  constitutionality 
aside,  a  graduated  income  tax  should  form  a  part  of  the  federal  taxing 
system."  The  affirmative  team,  consisting  of  Hancock,  '13,  Williams, 
'12,  and  Wriston,  '11,  with  Wallis,  '12,  as  alternate,  lost,  the  decision 
being  two  to  one  against  them.  The  negative  team,  consisting  of 
Panunzio,  '11,  Buck,  '12,  and  Montgomery,  '11,  with  Coit,  '12,  as 
alternate,  were  awarded  the  decision  against  Bowdoin. 

In  the  interclass  debate  the  freshmen  defeated  the  sophomores.  The 
freshman  team  consisted  of  Raymond  and  Mott  with  Dulany  as  alternate. 
The  sophomore  speakers  were  S.  W.  Murphy  and  L.  P.  Rice,  with  A. 
B.  Bruner  as  alternate.  The  question  was  the  same  as  that  of  the  tri- 
angular league. 

The  Briggs  Prize  debate  was  held  in  Memorial  Chapel  on  March  9. 
The  question  was:  "  Resolved,  that  in  American  cities  of  less  than  one 
hundred  thousand  population  the  commission  form  of  government 
should  be  adopted."  The  affirmative  speakers  were,  Buck,'  12,  and 
Williams,  '12;  the  negative  speakers  were,  Wriston,  '11,  and  Mont- 
gomer}',  '11.  The  judges,  M.  Eugene  Culver,  '75,  Doctor  Curts,  and 
Arthur  L.  Allin,  unanimously  awarded  the  prize  to  Moutgomerj-.

York  City.  The  medal  was  awarded  to  p;.  B.  Smith,  Bowdoin  '11, 
who  spoke  on  "A  New  Aristocracy,"  and  honorable  mention  was 
given  Montgomery  of  Wesleyan,  whose  subject  was,  "The  Hope  of 
Democracy."  G.  L.  Buck,  Wesleyan  '12,  was  elected  president  of  the 
league  for  the  coming  year. 

Laboratory  of  the  State  Board  of  Health. — Announcement  is 
made  of  the  resignation  of  Mr.  Arthur  L.  Gammage  as  assistant  chemist 
on  March  i,  191 1,  and  the  appointment  of  Thomas  R.  Lathrope,  Ph.  B.,  to 
that  position.  Mr.  Lathrope  is  a  graduate  of  Lafayette  College  and  has 
spent  a  year  and  a  half  in  sanitarj-  courses  at  the  Massachusetts  Institute 
of  Technology.  A  report  on  the  work  of  the  laboratory  during  the  past 
two  years  has  just  been  published  in  the  Biennial  Report  of  the  State 
Board  of  Health.  In  addition  to  the  regular  work  of  the  laboratory,  Mr. 
Newlands,  chemist  of  the  board,  was  authorized,  during  the  past  year, 
to  make  a  study  of  the  sanitary  condition  of  the  oyster  grounds  in  the 
New  Haven  harbor  and  the  data  obtained  in  this  investigation  have 
been  published  with  the  report  of  the  State  Board  of  Equalization  which 
was  appointed  by  the  General  Assembly  of  1909  to  investigate  the  oyster 
properties  of  the  state. 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  21 

Connecticut  Geological  and  Natural  History  Survey.— The 
Fourth  Biennial  Report  of  the  Survey  was  presented  to  the  General 
Assembl}^  of  Connecticut  in  January.  Professor  Rice  continues  to  be 
superintendent  of  the  Survey.  A  bulletin  on  the  "  Lithology  of  Con- 
necticut," by  Professor  Joseph  Barrell,  of  Yale  University,  and  Doctor 
G.  F.  Loughlin,  of  the  Massachusetts  Institute  of  Technology,  has  just 
been  published.  Specimens  of  Connecticut  rocks,  which  have  been 
collected  by  the  Survey,  are  being  distributed  to  the  colleges,  high 
schools,  normal  schools,  and  academies  of  the  state,  as  illustrative  of  the 
bulletin  which  has  been  published.  It  is  believed  that  its  educational 
value  in  the  state  will  be  very  largely  increased  by  the  suites  of  speci- 
mens thus  distributed. 

Another  bulletin  which  will  be  issued  within  a  few  weeks  is  the  first 
instalment  of  an  elaborate  work  on  the  insects  of  Connecticut,  to  be 
prepared  by  a  number  of  specialists  under  the  general  direction  of  W. 
E.  Britton,  Entomologist  of  the  Connecticut  Agricultural  Experimental 
Station  at  New  Haven.  The  part  which  is  soon  to  appear  treats  of  two 
orders  of  insects;  namely,  Euplexoptera  and  Orthoptera. 

It  is  expected  that  in  the  ensuing  biennial  term  the  main  activity  of 
the  Survey  will  be  an  investigation,  in  cooperation  with  the  United 
States  Geological  Survey,  of  the  water  resources  of  the  state,  including 
both  surface  and  underground  waters.  In  view  of  the  fact  that  many  of 
the  larger  towns  of  the  state  have,  within  the  last  few  years,  been 
threatened  with  water  famines,  the  timeliness  of  such  an  investigation 
is  obvious. 

Special  Bulletin. — A  committee  of  the  facility  has  been  appointed 
for  the  purpose  of  publishing  a  record  of  scientific  investigation  at 
Wesleyan  University.  The  publication  will  appear  in  the  form  of  a 
bulletin,  and  will  be  sent  to  all  the  alumni.  It  will  contain  brief 
histories  of  the  various  departments  of  science,  accounts  of  special  lines 
of  research  that  have  been  carried  on  here,  biographical  notes,  and 
somewhat  extensive  bibliographies.  Doctor  Turrentine,  who  had  initiated 
the  undertaking,  collected  and  edited  most  of  the  material  before  his 
resignation  from  the  faculty.  Since  then  the  remaining  editorial  work 
has  been  done  by  Professor  Camp.  It  is  expected  that  this  special 
bulletin  will  be  ready  for  distribution  in  June. 

Increase  of  Registration. — Professor  Rudolf  Tombo,  Jr.,  has 
published  an  article  in  Science  for  March  3,  1911,  upon  the  registration 
in  American  Colleges  during  the  year  1910-11.  From  data  presented 
it  appears  that,   in   percentage   of    increase    over    the    preceding    year. 


22  WESLEYAX  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

Wesleyan  leads  its  New  England  neighbors,  Amherst,  Bowdoin,  Brown, 
Dartmouth,  Massachusetts  Institute  of  Technology,  Tufts,  and  Williams. 
The  Catalogiie  shows  the  registration  at  Wesleyan  in  1909-10,  as  340;  in 
1910-11,  as  367,  an  increase  of  eight  per  cent. 

Wesleyan  Alumni  in  Who's  Who  in  America. — A  recent  com- 
pilation of  data  concerning  the  alumni  of  colleges  in  the  last  edition  of 
Who's  Who  in  America,  shows  the  following  list  of  the  twelve  leading 
colleges:  Harvard,  850  names;  Yale,  680;  Michigan,  282;  Columbia,  261; 
Princeton,  210;  Amherst,  205;  Pennsylvania,  198;  Cornell,  167;  Williams, 
123;  Virginia,  122;  Wesleyan,  121;  Chicago,  88.  It  should  be  noted 
that  the  total  number  of  living  alumni  of  Wesleyan  is  almost  exactly 
2,000,  while  Williams,  which  is  nearest  in  number  of  living  alumni,  has 
over  2,500,  and  from  this  the  figures  run  i:p  to  over  19,700  for  Harvard. 

Publications  by  Wesleyan  Alumni. — Houghton,  Mifflin  &  Com- 
pany have  recently  published  three  volumes  by  alumni  of  Wesleyan. 
These  were  "  Individuality,"  by  Edward  Lee  Thorndike,  '95;  "A  Roman 
Wit,"  a  galaxy  of  metrical  translations  of  the  best  of  Martial's  epigrams, 
by  Paul  Nixon,  '04,  and  "The  Standards  of  Living  among  Industrial 
People,"  by  Frank  Hatch  Streightoff,  '09.  The  last  of  these  is  the 
essay  which  won  a  Hart,  Schaffner  and  Marx  prize  in  economics  in 
1910. 

Athletic  Handbook. — A  revised  edition  of  the  Wesleyan  University 
Handbook  of  Athletics,  commonly  called  the  Red  Book,  was  published 
by  the  Athletic  Council,  about  March  i,  191 1. 

Visitors'  Evening  at  the  Gymnasium. — The  gymnasium  demon- 
stration was  held  on  April  6,  191 1,  under  the  direction  of  Mr.  Reiter. 
The  program  w-as  made  up  of  gymnastic  performances  on  various 
pieces  of  apparatus,  of  fancy  steps,  free  hand  work,  competitive  drills 
by  squads  from  the  two  lower  classes,  and  the  final  game  in  the  class 
basketball  series.  This  was  played  between  the  sophomores  (1913)  and 
the  freshmen  (1914)  and  was  won  by  the  latter.  The  class  drill  was 
awarded  to  the  freshmen  (1914).  The  individual  cup  for  excellence  in 
gymnastics  and  the  college  cup  for  the  best  gymnast  were  awarded  to 
Soule,  'II.  Freifeld,  '14,  and  Frost,  '14,  received  second  and  third  prize 
cups  respectively. 

Architecture  of  Wesleyan. — The  number  of  The  Architectural 
Record  for  February,  1911  (v.  29,  p.  145),  contains  a  description  of  the 
architecture  of   the   buildings  of  Wesleyan  University,  which  appears 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  23 

in  a  series  of  articles  on  the  Architecture  of  American  Colleges  by 
Montgomery  Schuyler.  The  writer  comments  with  special  approval  on 
Memorial  Chapel  and  the  new  North  College.  Photographs  of  most  of 
the  buildings  are  reproduced. 


FACULTY  NOTE,S 

President  Shanklin. — Since  the  opening  of  the  college  year  Presi- 
dent Shanklin  has  given  himself  largely  to  the  endowment  campaign 
with  gratifying  results.  He  and  the  other  members  of  the  trustees' 
committee  have  confidence  that  the  fund  will  be  completed  within  the 
prescribed  time,  namely,  December  31,  191 1.  The  President  has  ad- 
dressed nearly  all  the  alumni  associations,  and  also  visited  most  of  the 
patronizing  conferences.  He  also  attended  in  Greencastle,  Indiana, 
the  annual  meeting  of  the  Association  of  College  Presidents  and  Prin- 
cipals of  Secondary  Schools  of  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church,  January 
18-19;  and  the  meeting  of  the  University  Senate  of  the  Methodist  Epis- 
copal Church,  at  Indianapolis,  Indiana,  January  20.  He  was  elected 
secretary  of  the  Association  of  College  Presidents. 

Ex-President  Raymond. — The  many  friends  of  Doctor  Raymond 
who  knew  of  his  sudden  and  severe  illness  while  attending  the  New  York 
East  Conference  of  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church  at  New  Rochelle, 
New  York,  on  March  30,  will  be  glad  to  learn  that  he  has  recovered  and 
is  apparently  in  his  usual  health. 

Professor  Rice. — Professor  Rice  attended  the  meeting  of  the  Geo- 
logical Society  of  America  in  Pittsburg,  Pennsylvania,  December  27-29, 
1910,  and  was  elected  first  vice-president  for  the  ensuing  year.  He 
attended  the  meeting  of  the  University  Senate  of  the  Methodist  Episco- 
pal Church,  and  of  the  Association  of  Methodist  College  Presidents,  in 
Indianapolis  and  Greencastle,  Indiana,  January  18-20,  191 1.  Professor 
Rice  was  a  member  of  a  conmiittee  of  the  Senate  charged  with  the  duty 
of  conducting  an  investigation  of  the  status  of  all  institutions  of  learn- 
ing of  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church.  The  report  of  this  committee 
was  presented  for  consideration  in  both  the  Senate  and  the  Association 
of  College  Presidents. 

Professor  Conn. — Professor  Conn  is  a  member  of  a  National  Com- 
mission on  Milk  Standards  which  held  its  first  meeting  in  New  York, 
May  22,    1910.      He  has  also  been   made  an   honorary  member  of  the

WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  25 

Doctor  Turrentine. — Doctor  Turrentine  who  had  nearly  completed 
his  third  year  as  instructor  in  the  department  of  chemistry  has  accepted  a 
position,  at  a  large  advance  in  salary,  in  the  Bureau  of  Soils,  Department 
of  Agriculture,  Washington,  D.  C.  His  special  work  will  have  reference 
to  the  application  of  the  principles  of  ph3'sical  chemistry  to  the  pro- 
cesses which  take  place  in  soils.  As  he  was  obliged  to  enter  upon  the 
duties  of  this  position  promptly  on  the  first  of  May,  he  was  granted 
leave  of  absence  from  the  University  for  the  months  of  May  and  June 
by  the  President.  During  the  current  year,  Doctor  Turrentine  has 
obtained  some  very  interesting  results  relative  to  the  chemistry  of 
hydronitric  acid,  as  a  result  of  which  it  is  not  impossible  that  the  con- 
stitutional formula  which  has  hitherto  been  universally  assigned  to 
this  acid  may  have  to  be  given  up.  Unfortunately,  this  promising  piece 
of  investigation  will  be  interrupted  for  some  time  by  Doctor  Turrentine's 
change  of  position.  To  the  chemistry  department  his  removal  means  a 
distinct  loss. 

Doctor  Whitney. — Doctor  Whitney  recently  completed  a  series  of 
experiments  in  which  he  has  reared  rotifers  in  media  containing  various 
percentages  of  many  of  the  common  alcoholic  beverages.  These  experi- 
ments demonstrate  that  the  relative  toxicity  of  alcoholic  beverages  is 
not  proportional  to  the  amount  of  alcohol  contained  in  them.  This 
work  has  aroused  considerable  interest  iu  the  daily  press  and  has  been 
published  in  full  in  Science  and  will  be  republished  in  The  TeiJiperaiice 
Educational  Quarterly. 

Doctor  Whitney  attended  the  meetings  of  the  American  Society  of 
Zoologists  and  the  American  Society  of  Naturalists  at  Ithaca,  New  York, 
December  27-29,  1910.  He  was  elected  Fellow  of  the  American  Associa-

INTRODUCTION 

Tp'HE  purpose  of  this  bulletin  is  to  place  before  the  alumni  of  Wesleyan 
University  a  record  of  scientific  achievement  at  this  institution.  A 
brief  account  of  each  of  the  several  scientilic  departments  is  given, 
followed  by  short  biographies  and  by  bibliographies  of  all  teachers  of 
science  who  now  hold  at  the  University  at  least  the  rank  of  instructor,  and 
of  all  who  have  held  the  rank  of  professor  in  the  past.  The  biographies 
are  modeled  after  those  in  "American  Men  of  Science."  A  careful 
censorship  has  been  made  of  the  bibliographies.  As  now  published, 
they  include  in  each  case  only  that  portion  of  the  author's  work  which 
was  done  during  his  term  of  office  at  this  institution.  Work  done  while 
he  was  here  but  published  after  he  left  is  included.  Work  done  before 
he  came,  though  published  afterwards,  is  excluded.  Many  of  our  pro- 
fessors have  rendered  valuable  service  by  numerous  and  widely  known 
lectures  of  a  popular  or  semi-popular  nature  on  scientific  topics.  It  has 
been  deemed  advisable,  however,  to  exclude  all  unpublished  material 
from  the  bibliographies. 


4  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

A  comparison  of  the  scientific  strength  of  the  various  institutions  of 
the  United  vStates  has  recently  been  made  by  Professor  J.  M.  Cattell, 
Editor  of  "American  Men  of  vScience."  In  his  paper'  about  one  thous- 
and men  are  selected  as  the  leading  scientific  students  in  the  country, 
and  the  institutions  with  which  the  greater  part  are  connected  are 
compared.  This  is  done  in  four  ways  by  means  of  four  ratios:  first,  the 
ratio  of  the  total  number  of  instructors  in  the  institution  to  the  number 
belonging  to  the  thousand;  second,  the  ratio  of  the  number  of  students 
in  the  institution  to  the  number  of  instructors  in  the  thousand;  third, 
the  ratio  of  the  value  of  the  investments  in  buildings  and  grounds  to  the 
number  of  such  instructors;  and,  finally,  the  ratio  to  the  same  number 
of  the  income  which  the  institution  spends  annually. 

Regarding  the  results  of  the  first  method  of  comparison,  Professor 
Cattell  says  (page  589):  "These  differences  are  truly  remarkable  and 
should  be  widely  known  in  the  interest  of  scientific  education  and  the 
advancement  of  science.  Institutions  differ  in  the  relative  strengths  of 
their  departments,  but  it  will  be  found  that  those  which  have  men  of 
distinction  in  the  natural  and  exact  sciences  also  have  such  men  in 
other  subjects.  Students  should  certainly  use  every  effort  to  attend 
institutions  having  large  proportions  of  men  of  distinction  among  their 
instructors.  It  will  be  ordinarily  the  case  that  in  such  institutions 
the  younger  instructors  are  also  of  higher  standing.  Scientific  men, 
especially  those  beginning  their  careers,  should  try  to  accept  positions 
only  where  the  higher  standards  obtain."  The  accompanying  tables 
show  that  the  forty-five  most  prominent^  institutions  differ  widely  in 
this  respect.  The  ratio  for  Clark  University,  which  is  very  much  better 
than  for  any  other,  is  2.0.  Weslevan  is  seventh  in  the  list  with  a  ratio 
of  8.5,  and  George  Washington  last  with  a  ratio  of  61.6.  Clark  is  also 
at  the  head  of  the  second  list.  She  has  one  of  the  thousand  men  for 
every  17.7  students.  Wesleyan  is  eighth  with  one  for  every  80.5  students, 
and  Syracuse  last  with  one  for  every  627.2  students.     The  numbers  in 

'  Reprinted  from  "  Science"  in  "American  Men  of  Science",  N.  Y.  Science  Press, 
second  edition  (1910),  pp.  564-596. 

-  i.e.,  "institutions  with  which  three  or  more  of  our  thousand  leading  men  of 
science  are  connected." 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  5 

the  third  table  are  given  for  only  thirty-eight  institutions,  and  are 
stated  to  be  untrustworthy  because  of  difficulty  in  obtaining  uniform 
valuations  of  the  several  properties.  So  far  as  they  are  valid  they  show 
that  the  Massachusetts  Institute  has  the  smallest  ratio,  53,480,  that 
Wesleyan  with  the  ratio  220,616  is  eighteenth,  and  that  Vassar  is  last 
with  616,421.  The  corresponding  order  and  numbers  given  by  the 
fourth  method  are,  Johns  Hopkins  first,  10,121,  Wesleyan  seventh, 
25,613,  Syracuse  last,  148,350. 

Such  comparisons  in  the  case  of  a  small  college  are  not  as  reliable  as 
in  the  case  of  a  large  one,  because  of  the  greater  errors  in  the  ratios 
produced  by  a  probable  error  in  the  choice  of  the  thousand  men.  More- 
over, as  Professor  Cattell  points  out  (page  591),  the  men  standing 
highest  on  the  list  are  for  the  most  part  at  the  great  universities,  and 
should  not  be  ranked  on  an  equal  basis  with  those  below  them.  But 
the  estimates  are  nevertheless  of  considerable  value,  and  at  least  they 
afford  trustworthy  assurance  that  the  position  occupied  by  Wesleyan  is 
an  honorable  one. 


At  the  time  of  the  founding  of  Wesleyan  University,  in  1831,  and  for 
the  first  nine  years  thereafter,  five  "Departments,  or  General  Classes" 
of  studies  were  recognized,  namely:  "  Moral  Science  and  Belles-Lettres, 
Mathematics,  Natural  Science,  Ancient  Languages  and  Literature,  and 
Modern  Languages."  During  the  early  years  various  instructors  taught 
the  several  branches  of  science  then  included  in  these  general  classes. 
Of  these  instructors  two  deserve  special  mention.  Augustus  William 
Smith  was  the  first  Professor  of  Mathematics,  and  was  at  the  head  of 
that  department  for  the  first  twenty-six  years.  He  was  Acting  President 
of  the  University  for  two  years  and  was  President  from  1852  to  1857. 
Later  he  held  the  chair  of  Natural  Philosophy  at  the  United  States  Naval 
Academy  at  Annapolis.  John  Johnston  served  the  college  for  a  period 
of  thirty-six  years,  first  as  Assistant  Professor  of  Mathematics  and  Lec- 
turer in  Natural  Science,  and  afterwards  as  Professor  of  Natural  Science. 
He  made  some  important  investigations  in  the  subject  of  chemistr3^ 
Professor  Johnston's  lectures  were  given  in  a  small  brick  building  which 


6  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

formerly  stood  back  of  North  College.  (It  was  demolished  in  1907.) 
It  was  built  in  1S25  by  Captain  Partridge,  to  be  used  as  the  gun  house 
of  the  American  Literary,  Scientific,  and  Military  Academy.  In  1S36 
it  was  fitted  up  as  a  chemical  laborator%-,  and  continued  to  be  so  used 
till  1871,  when  all  instruction  in  chemistr\-,  natural  history,  and  natural 
philosophy  was  transferred  to  Judd  Hall,  which  was  completed  in  that 
year. 

Geology  and  Natural  History  were  first  recognized  as  a  separate 
department  in  1868,  when  William  North  Rice  was  appointed  to  the 
professorship  of  these  subjects.  Chemistry  was  thus  recognized  in  1873 
when  Wilbur  Olin  Atwater  became  instructor,  Ph5'Sics  in  1880  with  the 
appointment  of  Morris  Barker  Crawford  as  instructor,  and  Biology  was 
separated  from  Geology  when  Herbert  William  Conn  became  instructor 
in  that  subject  in  18S4.  Astronomy  has  always  remained  a  part  of  the 
Department  of  Mathematics.  The  present  organization  of  the  Depart- 
ment of  Philosophy  dates  from  the  appointment  of  Andrew  Campbell 
Armstrong  Professor  of  Philosoph}'  in  188S. 


HISTORIES  OF  DEPARTMENTS 
Department  of  Mathematics  and  Astronomy 

For  almost  the  whole  period  of  its  eighty-  j-ears  of  existence,  there 
have  been  but  two  men  in  charge  of  the  Department  of  Mathematics 
and  Astronomy.  Partly  to  the  continuity  of  their  leadership,  more  to 
the  personality  and  ability  of  these  men,  are  due  the  development  and 
the  achievements  of  this  department. 

The  work  of  Augustus  William  Smith  has  already  been  noted.  "No 
man,"  said  the  late  Bishop  Foss,  "ever  was  to  me,  on  the  whole,  so 
inspiring  and  admired  a  teacher  as  Augustus  W.  Smith,  author  of  the 
book  on  Mechanics  in  the  college  course  in  those  days,  which  few  ever 
mastered.     He  was  a  gracious,  sweet.  Christian  gentleman." 

The  second  man  needs  no  introduction  to  the  readers  of  this  article. 
John  Monroe  Van  Vleck,  a  graduate  of  Wesleyan  of  the  class  of  '50, 
became  Adjunct  Professor  of  Mathematics  in  1853,  and  in  1858  Professor 
of  Mathematics  and  Astronomy,  a  title  which  has  been  his  for  nearly 
fifty-three  j-ears  (Emeritus  since  1904).     Professor  Van  Vleck  has  been 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BUI^LETIN  7 

Acting  President  of  the  University  at  three  different  times,  fonr  years 
in  the  aggregate,  and  from  1890-1903  he  was  Vice-President. 

The  work  of  John  Johnston,  who  became  an  assistant  professor  in  1835, 
was  also  mentioned  in  an  introductory  paragraph.  Harvey  Bradburn 
Lane  was  Assistant  Professor  of  Mathematics  and  Natural  Philosophy 
in  1839-40,  and  Professor  of  Mathematics  and  Civil  Engineering  from 
1840  to  1843. 

Following  the  latter  there  was  no  assistant  professor  for  fifty-five 
3-ears.  There  was,  however,  a  long,  and  rather  remarkable  list  of 
instructors,  of  whom  the  great  majority  were  Wesleyan  men.  Among 
them  were: 

Edgar  Moncena  Smith,  D.  D.,  '71,  later  President,  Illinois  Wesleyan; 

Morris  Barker  Crawford,  A.  M.,  '74,  Professor  of  Physics,  Wesleyan; 

Clarence  Abiathar  Waldo,  Ph.  D.,  '75,  Professor  of  Mathematics, 
Washington  University; 

Abram  Winegardner  Harris,  Sc.  D.,  LL.  D.,  '80,  President,  North- 
western University; 

Henry  Seely  White,  Ph.  D.,  '82,  Professor  of  Mathematics,  Vassar 
College; 

William  John  James,  A.  M.,  '83,  Librarian,  Wesleyan; 

Edward  Burr  Van  Vleck,  Ph.D.,  LL.  D.,  '84,  Professor  of  Mathe- 
matics, University  of  Wisconsin; 

William  Snyder  Eichelberger,  Ph.D.,  Professor  of  Mathematics, 
U.  S.  Navy; 

George  Herbert  Ling,  Ph.  D.,  Professor  of  Mathematics,  University 
of  Saskatchewan. 

In  1895  Edward  Burr  Van  Vleck  was  made  Associate  Professor  of 
Mathematics,  and  in  1898  he  was  proinoted  to  a  full  professorship. 
L'pon  the  retirement  of  his  father  in  1904,  he  became  the  head  of  the 
department,  resigning  in  1906  to  accept  a  call  to  the  L^niversity  of 
Wisconsin.  In  the  years  1906-8,  Thomas  Emery  McKinney  was  Asso- 
ciate Professor  and  acting  head  of  the  department;  since  1908  this 
position  has  been  held  by  LeRoy  Albert  Howland,  '00.  The  other 
instructors  in  the  department  at  present  are  Associate  Professor  Burton 
Howard  Camp,  '01,  and  John  Kenyon  Laniond. 

The  material  equipment  of  the  department  has  been  remarkably  good 
for  a  college  of  the  size  of  Wesleyan.  As  early  as  1837  a  very  respectable 
six-inch  telescope  was  purchased  and  certain  other  astronomical  instru- 
ments.    In  1839  a  bill  for  setting  a  stone  for  the  transit  instrument  was 


8  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

ordered  paid,  and  probably  about  this  time  also  the  octagonal  obser- 
vatory was  built.  This  was  a  small  wooden  structure,  placed  at  first  at 
the  rear  of  Professor  Smith's  house,  where  Professor  Rice  now  lives, 
and  moved  about  1854  to  the  spot  now  occupied  by  the  southwest  corner 
of  Rich  Hall.  It  was  removed  in  1866.  A  new  refracting  telescope  of 
twelve-inch  aperture  was  mounted  in  the  tower  of  Observatory  Hall  in 
1869.  It  was  made  by  Alvan  Clark,  of  Cambridge,  and  at  that  time 
it  was  the  second  best  in  the  country.  In  1880  the  transit  house  was 
completed,  and  in  it  were  mounted  the  present  three-inch  zenith  tele- 
scope, with  collimators,  and  the  prime  vertical  instrument.  For  a  com- 
plete list  of  the  astronomical  equipment  the  reader  is  referred  to  the 
current  catalogue.  It  is  hoped  that  in  the  near  future  this  valuable 
apparatus,  collected  during  the  past  forty  years  by  the  untiring  efforts 
of  Professor  J.  M.  Van  Vleck,  may  be  suitably  housed.  In  1903  a  gift  of 
$25,000  was  received  from  the  late  Joseph  Van  Vleck  to  be  used  toward 
the  erection  of  a  new  observatory.  This  gift,  with  its  accumulations, 
now  amounts  to  about  $57,000. 

The  department  has  also  a  good  collection  of  surveying  instruments. 
It  owns  a  set  of  mathematical  models,  both  plaster  and  string,  some 
three  hundred  in  number,  made  by  Brill  of  Darmstadt.  These  models 
formed  part  of  the  German  exhibition  at  the  World's  Columbian 
Exposition  at  Chicago.  Through  the  generosity  of  Ebenezer  Hill,  '70, 
Professor  J.  M.  Van  Vleck  was  enabled  to  purchase  them. 


Department  of  Geology 


Instruction  in  geology  seems  to  have  been  begun  two  years  after  the 
founding  of  the  institution.  In  the  year  1833-4,  William  Williams 
Mather  was  Acting  Professor  of  Natural  Science,  and  the  catalogue 
shows  that  instruction  was  given  in  mineralogy  and  geology.  Professor 
Mather  afterwards  took  an  honorable  part  in  the  Geological  Survey  of 
the  State  of  New  York,  and  in  the  later  years  of  his  life  he  was  Pro- 
fessor of  Natural  Science  in  Ohio  University  and  for  several  years  Acting 
President.  In  the  year  1834-5,  Oliver  Payson  Hubbard  was  Lecturer 
on  Natural  Science,  and  gave  instruction  in  mineralogy  and  geology. 
He  was  subsequently  for  many  years  Professor  of  Chemistry,  Mineralogy, 
and  Geology  in  Dartmouth  College.  Both  of  these  able  men  were  con- 
nected with  the  college  so  short  a  time  that  they  made  little  impression 
upon  its  life.    Professor  John  Johnston,  who  came  herein  1835,  and  whose 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  9 

long  term  of  service  covered  a  period  of  38  years,  made  a  name  memor- 
able in  the  history  of  the  University.  He  was  greatly  honored  and 
loved  by  the  students  of  four  decades.  He  was  chiefly  a  chemist;  but 
he  gave  a  good  deal  of  attention  to  mineralogj-,  and  collected  largely 
from  the  famous  mineral  localities  in  the  vicinity  of  Middletown.  He 
also  lectured  every  year  on  geology  proper,  but  was  less  interested  in 
that  science  than  in  mineralogy.  William  North  Rice  was  elected 
Professor  of  Geology  and  Natural  History  in  1867,  and,  after  a  year's 
leave  of  absence,  entered  upon  his  work  in  1868.  Until  1884  his  depart- 
ment included  substantially  what  is  now  included  in  the  two  depart- 
ments of  Geology  and  Biology.  Since  1884  he  has  been  Professor 
of  Geology.  The  division  of  the  department  has,  of  course,  rendered 
it  possible  to  extend  the  scope  of  instruction  in  geology  more  widely 
than  before;  but  it  is  needless  to  say  that  no  one  man  can  do  justice 
to  the  wide  field  which  is  still  included  in  the  Department  of  Geology. 
Since  1907  an  additional  instructor  (non-resident)  has  been  employed 
for  the  class  in  physical  geography.  During  the  past  year  this  work 
has  been  done  b}'  Walter  Ransom  Barrows. 

THE    MUSEUM 

When  Wesleyan  University  was  organized  in  1831,  it  found  a  very 
small  nucleus  of  a  museum  already  provided.  In  one  of  the  buildings 
of  the  American  Literary,  Scientific,  and  Military  Academy,  which 
was  the  local  predecessor  of  Wesleyan  University,  there  was  found  at 
the  time  of  the  organization  of  the  college  a  small  collection  of  minerals 
and  fossils  belonging  to  the  somewhat  eccentric  botanist  and  geologist, 
Joseph  Barratt,  who  had  been  a  teacher  in  the  former  institution.  That 
collection  was  purchased  from  Dr.  Barratt,  and  thus  began  the  history 
of  the  Museum  of  Wesleyan  University. 

Dr.  Johnston,  who  was  appointed  to  the  Wesleyan  Faculty  in  1835, 
collected  extensively  from  the  mineral  localities  in  Middletown  and 
vicinity,  so  that  early  in  the  history  of  the  college  it  came  to  have  a 
good  representation  of  local  mineralogy.  In  1858  the  Franckfort  collec- 
tion of  minerals  was  purchased,  which  included  a  large  number  of  choice 
specimens,  mostly  from  European  localities.  With  the  acquisition  of 
that  collection,  the  college  had  already  a  very  respectable  mineralogical 
department  for  its  museum. 

Very  little  had  been  done  in  the  way  of  making  a  zoological  collection 
until  the  purchase  of  the  Shurtleff  collection  in  1868.  This  collection 
was  made  by  a  physician  and  amateur  naturalist  residing  in  Westfield, 
Mass.    It  included  specimens  of  molluscan  shells  representing  thovisands 


lO  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

of  species  from  all  parts  of  the  world,  several  hundred  skins  of  birds, 
chiefly  North  American,  a  herbarium,  chiefly  of  New  England  plants, 
and  considerable  miscellaneous  material.  A  good  many  of  the  bird 
skins  included  in  the  collection  were  subsequently  mounted  for  public 
exhibition. 

William  North  Rice  was  elected  Professor  of  Geology  and  Natural 
Historj^  in  1867,  and  entered  upon  his  work  in  1868.  During  the  whole 
of  his  period  of  service  as  professor  he  has  given  much  attention  to  the 
Museum.  Besides  having  the  chief  responsibility  for  the  general  plans 
of  musevim  administration,  he  has  done  himself  a  large  amount  of  work 
in  collecting,  cataloguing,  labeling,  and  arranging  the  specimens. 

Orange  Judd  Hall  of  Natural  Science  was  dedicated  in  1872,  and  the 
opening  of  that  building  marks  a  new  era  in  the  history  of  the  Museum. 
The  material  which  the  college  possessed  was  previously  scattered  about 
in  different  buildings,  and  a  considerable  part  of  it  was  comparatively 
inaccessible.  These  conditions  rendered  it  of  comparatively  little  use, 
either  for  class  work  or  for  popular  education.  The  large  exhibition 
room  formed  by  the  two  upper  stories  of  Judd  Hall  gave  opportunity 
for  a  far  more  satisfactory  display  of  material.  George  Brown  Goode, 
who  was  graduated  in  1870,  was  appointed  at  that  time  Assistant  Curator 
of  the  Museum.  After  a  few  months  spent  in  study  in  Harvard  Univer- 
sity, he  returned  to  Middletown  to  enter  upon  his  work.  He  at  once 
displayed  that  genius  for  museum  administration  which  in  later  j-ears 
made  his  name  illustrious  as  Director  of  the  United  States  National 
Museum.  Mr.  Goode  served  as  Curator  of  the  Museum  of  Weslej-an 
University  from  1S71  until  1S79,  although  during  most  of  that  period 
his  time  was  divided  between  the  little  museum  of  Wesleyan  and  the 
great  museum  at  Washington.  Professor  Baird,  the  distinguished  Dir- 
ector of  the  National  Museum,  recognized  the  remarkable  capacity  of 
yovmg  Goode  for  that  sort  of  work,  and  needed  his  assistance  in  the 
reorganization  of  the  collections  at  Washington,  which  was  going  on  in 
that  decade.  For  a  number  of  years  Mr.  Goode  spent  his  winters  in 
Washington,  having  leave  of  absence  from  Wesle3'an  Universit)^  with 
the  understanding  that  Wesleyan  should  be  compensated  for  the  lack  of 
his  services  by  liberal  donations  to  be  selected  by  him  from  the  vast 
store  of  duplicates  in  the  National  Museum.  It  is  needless  to  say  that 
this  arrangement  resulted  in  verj-  important  additions  to  the  collection 
of  Wesleyan  University.  During  that  same  decade  Mr.  Goode  spent 
his  summer  vacations  largely  with  the  United  States  Fish  Commission 
at  various  points  along  the  Atlantic  coast.  Two  of  those  years  Pro- 
fessor Rice  also  worked  with  the  Fish  Commission.     The  opportunities 


WESI<EYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULI.ETIN  1 1 

afforded  by  the  steamer  and  other  boats  and  the  apparatus  belonging  to 
the  United  States  Fish  Commission  made  it  possible  to  obtain  a  very 
good  representation  of  the  fauna  of  the  Atlantic  coast  of  the  United 
States.  During  that  decade  the  zoological  collection  acquired  a  good 
degree  of  symmetrical  development.  In  1879  the  demands  of  the 
work  at  Washington  compelled  Mr.  Goode  to  terminate  his  connection 
with  Wesleyan  University',  but  in  those  few  years  he  had  created  a 
museum.  Thenceforward,  until  the  time  of  his  death,  his  extraor- 
dinary ability  for  museum  administration  found  a  larger  and  more 
worthy  field  in  the  National  Museum. 

A  number  of  joung  naturalists  of  promise  were  employed  as  assistants 
in  the  Museum  for  short  periods  during  the  later  years  of  Mr.  Goode's 
curatorship  and  the  decade  which  followed.  Among  these  may  be 
mentioned  John  Henry  Pillsburj',  afterwards  Professor  in  Smith  College; 
Henry  Leslie  Osborn,  now  Professor  in  Hamline  Univerity;  Walter 
Bradford  Barrows,  now  Professor  in  Michigan  Agricultural  College; 
John  Uittlefield  Tilton,  now  Professor  in  Simpson  College;  Aaron  Louis 
Treadwell,  now  Professor  in  Vassar  College;  and  John  Hendley  Barnhart, 
now  Librarian  of  New  York  Botanical  Garden. 

In  1893  Samuel  Ward  Loper  was  appointed  Assistant  in  the  Museum, 
and  the  following  year  his  title  was  changed  to  Curator.  The  latter 
position  he  held  until  his  death  in  1910.  He  devoted  himself  to  the 
work  of  the  Museum  with  a  passionate  enthusiasm.  Circumstances 
had  denied  him  the  coveted  opportunitj'  of  a  liberal  education  in  early 
youth,  but  his  irrepressible  love  of  science  had  made  him  a  self-taught 
naturalist.  He  had  taken  a  special  course  of  study  in  Wesleyan  Uni- 
versity when  already  more  than  fifty  years  of  age.  He  had  been  an 
indefatigable  collector  of  minerals  and  fossils  and  Indian  relics,  and 
his  private  collection  has  been  purchased  and  incorporated  with  the 
collections  in  the  Universit}-.  In  the  seventeen  years  of  his  connection 
with  the  Museum  of  Wesleyan  he  showed  himself  a  prince  of  collectors. 
Many  departments  of  the  Museum,  most  of  all  the  department  of 
paleontology,  were  very  greatly  increased  by  his  collecting  expeditions, 
far  and  near.  His  tact  and  geniality  enabled  him  to  conciliate  the 
friendship  of  all  sorts  of  people  and  secure  donations  for  the  Museum. 
In  most  departments  of  the  Museum  he  replaced  the  old  manuscript 
labels  with  labels  printed  by  his  own  hand  on  his  own  printing-press. 
He  knew  how  to  display  specimens  to  the  best  artistic  effect.  He  could 
do  almost  any  kind  of  museum  work,  from  the  identification  of  speci- 
mens to  the  building  of  cases.  The  enthusiasm  with  which,  on  the 
public  days,  he  guided  visitors,  young  and  old,  through  the  Museum  and 


12  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

explained  to  them  its  treasures,  added  vastly  to  the  usefulness  of  the 
Museum  as  a  means  of  popular  education.  In  the  history  of  the  Museum 
Mr.  Loper's  name  is  second  onl)-  to  that  of  George  Brown  Goode. 

It  has  been  deemed  impracticable  for  the  present  to  appoint  a  curator 
who  will  in  any  sense  take  the  place  of  Mr.  Loper.  The  hall  of  the 
Museum  is  overcrowded,  and  the  same  is  true  of  the  whole  building. 
There  is  imperative  need  of  larger  accommodations  for  the  Museum  and 
for  the  work  of  the  two  departments  of  Geology  and  Biology  to  which 
it  is  related.  Any  general  reorganization  of  the  Museum  must  be  post- 
poned until  the  erection  of  one  or  more  new  buildings  shall  furnish 
adequate  space,  and  some  new  director  shall  be  able  to  work  out  new 
plans.  In  the  meanwhile  the  necessary  work  of  routine  administration 
of  the  Museum  is  attended  to  by  Dr.  Whitney  as  Acting  Curator,  in 
consultation  with  Professor  Rice. 

It  is  needless  to  say  that  the  Museum  of  Wesleyan  University  is  not 
one  of  the  great  museums  of  the  country.  It  is,  however,  sufficient  to 
do  good  work  for  its  primary  purpose  as  an  educational  museum.  It  is 
in  general  supplied  with  the  typical  specimens  requisite  for  lecture 
illustration.  Incidentallj'  it  does  a  useful  work  in  popular  education. 
Its  collections  are  well  displayed  and  accessible  on  certain  days  to  the 
general  public.  It  is  often  visited  on  other  days  by  classes  from  the 
schools  of  Middletown  and  vicinity.  While  a  small  museum  cannot 
possess  the  wealth  of  miscellaneous  collections  that  are  found  in  the 
large  museums,  there  is  one  particular  service  which  every  small  museum 
ought  to  render,  aud  that  is  the  exhibition  of  local  objects.  In  all  the 
history  of  the  Museum  of  Wesleyan  University  there  has  been  a  con- 
sistent effort  to  develop  it  as  a  local  nmseum.  At  present  its  collections 
are  very  rich  in  local  material,  particularh'  the  rare  and  interesting 
minerals  from  the  pegmatite  dikes  so  characteristic  of  the  crystalline 
rocks  east  of  Middletown,  and  the  fossil  plants  and  reptilian  tracks  of 
the  Triassic  shales  and  sandstones. 

THE   STATE   GEOLOGICAL   AND   NATURAL   HISTORY   SURVEY 

The  present  State  Survey  was  organized  by  act  of  the  Legislature  in 
1903.  At  that  time  more  than  sixty  j'cars  had  elapsed  since  the  conclu- 
sion of  the  work  of  the  first  geological  survey  of  Connecticut.  That 
first  geological  survey  resulted  in  two  important  publications,  a  report 
on  the  mineralogy  and  economic  geology  of  the  state,  by  Charles  Uphani 
Shepard,  and  a  report  on  the  general  geology  of  the  state,  by  James 
Gates  Percival.  Dr.  Percival's  report,  considering  the  nieagreness  of 
the  appropiations  with  which  he  worked,  and  the  lack  of  any  tolerable 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  1 3 

tnaps  of  the  state,  was  a  marvellous  piece  of  work  in  the  conscientious 
accuracy  with  which  the  limits  of  the  different  formations  of  the  state 
were  defined.  In  the  years  which  have  elapsed  since  1842,  the  science 
of  geology  has  vastly  changed.  The  new  views  which  have  been  devel- 
oped in  djmamical  geology  require  a  new  interpretation  of  facts  pre- 
viously known,  and  bring  into  existence  new  questions  whose  answer 
requires  the  study  of  the  rocks  by  modern  methods  and  in  greater  detail. 
There  was,  then,  abundant  need  of  a  new  geological  survey  of  the  state. 
It  is  true  that  in  the  interval  since  the  piiblication  of  the  Percival  report, 
a  good  deal  of  good  work  had  been  done  by  geologists  of  the  United 
States  Geological  Survey  and  b}-  independent  workers.  But  the  results 
of  those  investigations,  so  far  as  published,  were  scattered  through  a 
variety  of  official  reports  and  scientific  serials  where  they  were  practi- 
cally inaccessible  to  most  of  the  people  of  the  state.  About  ten  years 
before  the  establishment  of  the  present  State  Survey,  a  topographic  map 
of  the  state  had  been  made  by  a  State  Commission  in  cooperation  with 
the  United  States  Geological  vSurvey.  Besides  its  utility  in  many  other 
ways,  this  topographic  map  affords  a  satisfactory  base  for  the  accurate 
mapping  of  geological  phenomena. 

Prior  to  the  year  1903,  no  provision  had  been  made  for  a  botanical  or 
zoological  survey  of  the  state.  Some  investigations  had  been  made  under 
the  direction  of  the  State  Board  of  Health  which  had  a  bearing  upon 
the  natural  history  of  the  state,  and  some  papers  relating  to  the  natural 
history  of  the  state  had  been  published  by  the  Board  of  Agriculture  and 
the  Board  of  Education.  But  it  was  altogether  reasonable  that  in  1903 
a  State  Survej'  should  be  established,  charged  with  the  investigation 
both  of  the  geology  and  of  the  botany  and  zoology  of  the  state. 

The  law  by  which  the  Survey  was  established  provides  a  very  simple 
form  of  organization.  The  Survey  is  under  the  direction  of  a  Board  of 
Commissioners  consisting  of  the  Governor  and  the  Presidents  of  the 
four  colleges  in  the  state.  This  Board  have  authority  to  employ  a 
Siiperintendent  and  such  other  employees  as  they  deem  desirable,  and 
to  discharge  any  employees  at  their  discretion.  In  the  summer  of  1903. 
Professor  Rice  of  Wesleyan  University  was  appointed  Superintendent  of 
the  Survey,  and  has  continued  in  that  position  to  the  present  time. 

The  appropriations  for  the  support  of  the  Survey  have  been  so  small 
that  the  work  has  inevitably  been  prosecuted  on  a  very  humble  scale. 
The  total  appropriation  for  all  purposes  of  the  Survey  apart  from  publica- 
tion has  been  $3,000  for  each  biennial  term,  or  |ii,5oo  per  year.  With 
so  small  an  appropriation  it  has  not  been  deemed  wise  to  provide  for  a 
staff  of  permanent  officers.      No  permanent   salaried  officer  has  been 


14  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

employed  except  the  Superintendent.  In  general,  scientific  men  have 
been  employed  on  specific  contracts  to  prepare  reports  or  bulletins  on 
particular  subjects.  In  most  cases  the  men  who  have  been  invited  to 
prepare  bulletins  have  been  already  engaged  on  their  own  account  in 
the  investigation  of  the  subjects  on  which  they  were  invited  to  prepare 
reports.  The  State  Survey  has  therefore  formed  a  convenient  and 
desirable  medium  of  publication  for  investigators  who  were  already  at 
work  on  subjects  relating  to  the  geology,  botany,  and  zoology  of  the  state. 
In  such  cases,  scientific  men  have  been  glad  to  furnish  the  results  of 
their  investigation  for  publication  in  the  form  of  bulletins  of  the  Survey, 
for  merely  nominal  compensation.  In  that  way,  notwithstanding  the 
meagreness  of  the  appropriation,  a  large  amount  of  valuable  material 
has  been  published.  The  law  establishing  the  Survey  proposed  defin- 
itely three  objects  for  its  work:  the  increase  of  knowledge  in  regard  to 
the  geology  and  the  natural  productions  of  the  state,  the  advancement 
of  the  economic  interests  of  the  state  by  calling  attention  to  products  of 
economic  utility,  and  the  advancement  of  the  educational  interests  of 
the  state  by  the  publication  of  reports  on  the  natural  history  of  the 
state  adapted  to  assist  the  teachers  of  the  state  in  their  work.  All  three 
of  these  objects  have  been  in  view  in  the  plan  of  the  work  of  the  Survey, 
and  it  is  believed  that  the  publications  of  the  Survey  have  been  of  great 
value  scientifically,  economically,  and  educationally.  The  following  is  a 
list  of  the  bulletins  which  have  thus  far  been  published:

logical and  Natural  History  Survey,  1909-1910. 

In  the  next  biennial  term,  and  probably  for  several  years  thereafter, 
the  larger  part  of  the  appropriation  of  the  State  Survey  will  be  expended 
in  an  investigation  of  the  water  resources  of  the  state,  both  on  the 
surface  and  underground.  This  investigation  is  to  be  made  in  coopera- 
tion with  the  United  States  Geological  Survey,  and  will  be  under  the 
general  charge  of  Professor  H.  E.  Gregory  of  Yale  University.  It  will 
include  the  establishment  of  gaging  stations  on  a  number  of  the 
Connecticut  rivers,  and  the  accumulation  of  data  in  regard  to  the 
stream  flow  at  different  seasons,  with  reference  to  the  question  of 
storage  reservoirs,  control  of  floods,  and  utilization  of  water  for  water 
power  as  well  as  for  other  purposes.  It  will  also  include  a  far  more 
detailed  study  than  has  ever  been  made  of  the  underground  waters  of 
the  State.  The  fact  that  a  number  of  our  large  towns  have  been 
threatened  with  water  famine  in  recent  years  indicates  that  this  investi- 
gation is  a  very  timely  one. 

In  the  next  biennial  term  no  new  work  will  be  contracted  for 
excepting  the  investigation  of  water  resources,  but  there  are  more  than 
a  dozen  bulletins  already  contracted  for,  completed,  or  well  advanced 
towards  completion,  which  it  is  hoped  will  be  published  in  the  near 
future. 


1 6  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

Department  of  Chemistry 

Chemistry  has  been  taught  at  Wesleyan  since  the  founding  of  the 
University  in  1831.  From  1835  to  1873  instruction  in  this  branch  of 
science  was  given  by  John  Johnston.  With  the  erection  of  Judd  Hall  it 
first  became  possible  for  students  to  do  laboratory  work,  and  this  work 
commenced  with  a  course  in  qualitative  analysis  under  Professor  Rice. 
Wilbur  Olin  Atwater,  of  the  class  of  '65,  was  appointed  Instructor  in 
Chemistry  in  1873.  He  became  Professor  of  Chemistry  the  following 
year,  and  so  continued  till  his  lamentable  death  in  1907. 

In  1889  Walter  Parke  Bradley  was  appointed  Instructor  in  Chemistr}- 
under  Professor  Atwater.  He  was  advanced  to  the  position  of  Associate 
Professor  in  1890,  and  to  that  of  Professor  in  1893.  Since  the  death 
of  Professor  x\twater.  Professor  Bradley  has  been  the  head  of  the 
department. 

In  1896  Francis  Gano  Benedict,  who  had  already  held  the  position  of 
Instructor  in  the  Massachusetts  College  of  Pharmacy,  was  appointed  to 
an  Instructorship  in  Chemistry  at  Wesleyan.  He  was  given  a  consider- 
able portion  of  the  work  of  instruction  which  had  previously  been  done 
by  Professor  Atwater,  and  thus  the  latter  was  able  to  devote  nearly  all 
of  his  time  thereafter  to  research  with  the  respiration  calorimeter,  an 
important  invention  which  will  be  referred  to  again  below.  In  1901, 
Dr.  Benedict  w^as  made  Associate  Professor,  and  in  1905,  Professor.  By 
this  time,  Professor  Atwater  had  already  been  laid  aside  by  the  lingering 
illness  of  which  he  afterwards  died.  In  1907  Dr.  Benedict  was  called 
from  Wesleyan  to  become  Director  of  the  Nutrition  Laboratory  of  the 
Carnegie  Institution  at  Boston,  a  position  which  he  still  holds. 

Among  those  who  have  been  officers  in  the  department  and  have  not 
reached  the  rank  of  professor,  but  who,  after  serving  Wesleyan,  have 
been  called  elsewhere  to  educational  and  scientific  positions  of  honor,

From  the  beginning  of  the  department,  its  officers  have  devoted  a 
part  of  their  energies  to  research.  Doubtless  no  one  factor  has  con- 
tributed more  largely  to  the  scientific  distinction  of  Wesleyan  than  did 
the  labors  of  Professor  Atwater  along  the  various  lines  of  research  in 
which  he  was  interested.  His  early  work  on  the  chemistry  of  soils  and 
also  his  studies  of  nutrients  and  of  problems  in  dietetics  will  be  spoken 
of  more  fully  in  an  article  by  Dr.  True;  but  it  was  his  later  work  with 
the  respiration  calorimeter  through  which  Wesleyan  came  to  be  best 
known.  This  apparatus  was  developed  by  Professor  Atwater  and  his 
colleagues,  notably  Professors  Rosk  and  Benedict,  and  with  it  the  world- 
famous  inquiries  regarding  the  nutrition  of  man  were  conducted.  Many 
of  the  foremost  investigators  in  this  and  allied  fields  the  world  over 
came  to  visit  this  laboratory.  Not  the  least  noteworthy  factor  in  Pro- 
fessor Atwater's  success  was  his  ability  to  enlist  the  practical  interest 


*  Resigned  May  i,  191 1. 


I  8  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BLTLLETIN 

and  the  financial  cooperation  of  institutions  and  of  men  of  wealth. 
The  State  of  Connecticut  aided  him  through  the  Storrs  Agricultural 
Experiment  Station.  The  U.  S.  Government  aided  him  with  increasing 
generosity  through  the  Bureau  of  Experiment  Stations,  and  later,  almost 
immediatel}'  after  its  founding,  the  Carnegie  Foundation  came  most 
liberally  of  all  to  his  support. 

Wesleyan's  connection  with  these  researches  came  to  an  end  at  the 
death  of  Professor  Atw-ater,  inasmuch  as  they  were  then  taken  over  by 
the  Carnegie  Institution,  and  the  expensive  plant  which  had  been 
developed  was  transferred  to  Boston  and  installed  in  the  splendidly 
equipped  nutrition  laboratory,  over  which  Dr.  Benedict  presides. 

In  one  other  line  of  research  the  Department  of  Chemistry  has  earned 
a  degree  of  recognition,  namely,  the  inquiries  of  Professor  Bradley  and 
his  associates  into  problems  connected  with  the  liquefaction  of  gases, 
and  the  attainment  and  utilization  of  low  temperatures. 

It  is  interesting  to  note  that,  as  long  ago  as  the  late  thirties,  in  the 
early  days  of  Professor  Johnston's  incumbency,  Wesleyan  was  some- 
thing of  a  pioneer  in  cryogenics,  as  this  field  has  more  recently  been 
called.  In  1836  Professor  Johnston  had  already  liquefied  and  solidified 
carbonic  acid  gas,  and  was  demonstrating  both  processes  before  his 
classes.  As  this  gas  had  never  been  solidified  until  1834,  and  as 
this  achievement  of  Thilorier  remained  for  some  time  the  most  note- 
worthy one  in  the  then  highly  dangerous  field  of  cryogenics,  it  will 
be  seen  that  Wesleyan  was  at  least  iip  to  date.  Indeed,  Professor 
Johnston  was  able  to  improve  very  materially  the  apparatus  of  Thilorier 
in  the  directions  of  safety  and  econom3\ 

Although  it  is  less  than  thirteen  years  since  the  founding  of  the 
present  cryogenic  laboratory  at  Wesleyan  was  undertaken,  it  is  inter- 
esting to  note  that  Wesleyan's  Board  of  Trustees  was  even  then  the 
first  academic  body  west  of  the  Atlantic  to  authorize  the  establishment 
of  a  liquid  air  plant  for  research.  Loyal  alumni  contributed  the  neces- 
sary funds,  the  liquefier  was  constructed  on  the  grounds,  the  accessor}- 
apparatus  was  purchased,  and,  on  July  29,  1902,  the  production  of  liquid 
air  by  this  plant  was  first  accomplished.  With  the  present  apparatus, 
the  output  of  liquid  air  per  hour  is  five,  liters,  with  a  consumption  of 
from  ten  to  twelve  horse  power.  From  this  laboratory  considerable 
contributions  have  been  made  to  the  science  of  crj'Ogenics.  Professor 
Bradley  has  delivered  many  lectures  on  the  subject  before  scientific 
societies,  and  several  of  his  published  papers  in  this  field  have,  b}^  per- 
mission, been  translated  in  full  and  republished  in  Germany. 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  1 9 

In  addition  to  these  two  more  extensively  prosecuted  lines  of  research, 
there  have  been  a  number  of  additions  to  the  knowledge  of  organic 
chemistry  by  Professor  Bradley  and  later  by  Dr.  Renshaw  and  their 
associates,  and  to  physical  chemistry  by  Dr.  Turrentine. 


THE   RESPIRATION   CALORIMETER 

As  a  logical  outcome  of  his  interest  in  investigations  in  the  nutrition 
of  animals.  Professor  Atwater  early  became  interested  in  the  nutrition  of 
man  and  the  need  of  some  satisfactory  laboratory  apparatus  for  studying 
the  problems  connected  with  the  income  and  outgo  of  the  human  body, 
the  use  which  it  makes  of  its  food  supply,  the  work  which  it  performs, 
the  value  of  different  food  combinations,  and  similar  questions.  To 
meet  such  needs  an  apparatus  was  devised  for  measuring  not  onlj'  the 
gases  of  respiration,  but  also  the  heat  liberated  from  the  body.  The 
apparatus  was  called  a  "respiration  calorimeter."  This  apj^aratus,  the 
construction  of  which  was  begun  in  1892  at  Wesleyan  University,  was 
developed  and  improved  each  year  until  it  finally  outgrew  the  quarters 
at  Wesleyan  University  and  the  work  is  now  housed  in  a  special  labora- 
tory built  in  Boston. 

In  its  general  design  the  respiration  calorimeter  was  inspired  by  the 
Pettenkofer  apparatus  built  about  sixty  years  ago  at  Munich.  After  a 
considerable  amount  of  experimenting  the  Atwater-Rosa  calorimeter 
was  completed,  and  this  enabled  the  investigators  to  study  the  carbon 
dioxide  excretion  from  the  lungs  and  the  heat  production.  It  was  not 
then  possible,  however,  to  ineasure  directly  the  amount  of  oxygen  used, 
and  as  this  was  felt  to  be  necessary  the  apparatus  was  modified  by  the 
introduction  of  devices  for  this  purpose,  the  expenses  for  the  improve- 
ment being  defrayed  by  the  Carnegie  Institution  of  Washington.  The 
apparatus  consists  of  an  air-tight  copper  box,  through  which  a  ven- 
tilating current  of  air  is  pumped  at  such  a  rate  that  the  subject 
can  always  be  supplied  with  a  sufficient  amount  of  pure  air.  The 
chamber  contains  a  folding  bed,  a  chair,  and  a  table,  and  is  provided 
with  a  window  for  the  introduction  of  food  and  drink,  and  for  the 
removal  of  excreta.  The  ventilating  current  of  air,  as  it  leaves  the 
apparatus,  passes  through  purifying  vessels  that  remove  the  carbon 
dioxide  and  water  vapor  which  make  up  the  respiratory  products  given 
off  by  the  lungs  and  skin.  Oxygen  is  then  added  to  the  air  current  to 
make  up  for  that  withdrawn  by  the  subject  for  the  internal  processes  of 
combustion  in  the  bod3\  Thus  purified  and  supplied  with  ox3'gen  so 
that  it  is  fit  to  be  breathed,  the  air  current  is  again  passed  through  the 


20  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

respiration  chamber,  and  this  circulation  of  air  is  kept  up  as  long  as  the 
experiment  continues.  The  apparatus  has  been  subjected  to  the  most 
critical  tests  for  accuracy,  and  has  demonstrated  itself  to  be  literally 
an  instrument  of  precision. 

The  purpose  of  the  experiments  with  the  respiration  calorimeter  is  to 
study  the  fundamental  laws  of  normal  nutrition,  and  in  the  apparatus 
at  Wesleyan  University  all  experiments  were  made  with  active  men  in 
good  health,  i.  <?.,  with  normal  subjects,  and  the  majority  were  labora- 
tory assistants  or  students  of  mature  years.  The  experiments  covered 
varying  conditions  of  diet,  work,  rest,  etc.  The  diet  was  carefully 
chosen  so  that  it  might  be  suited  in  quantit}-  and  composition  to  the 
subject's  need  and  to  the  purpose  of  the  experiments,  and  the  food  was 
made  palatable  in  order  to  insure  normal  results.  In  some  of  the 
experiments,  the  subjects,  for  purposes  of  comparison,  had  a  limited 
supply  of  food  or  were  fasting. 

Among  the  numerous  important  researches  that  were  carried  out  with 
the  apparatus  while  at  Wesleyan  University  was  an  experimental  inquiry 
into  the  nutritive  value  of  alcohol,  in  which  varying  amounts  of  alcohol 
were  ingested,  along  with  different  foods,  and  the  amount  of  alcohol 
oxidized  and  the  replacement  of  other  food  by  alcohol  were  carefully 
studied. 

A  long  series  of  experiments  was  made  in  studying  the  relative 
efficiency  of  fats  and  carbohydrates  as  sources  of  muscular  work.  In 
these  experiments  a  special  form  of  stationary  bicycle,  an  "ergometer," 
was  devised  and  afforded  a  very  accurate  measure  of  the  amount  of 
energy  transferred  from  the  leg  muscles  to  the  pedals  of  the  bicycle. 
The  apparatus  was  also  used  sitccessfully  for  the  purpose  of  determining 
the  efficiency  of  the  human  body  as  a  machine. 

Another  series  of  interesting  experiments  was  made  in  which  the 
effect  of  mental  work  on  metabolism  was  studied.  Twenty-two  Wesleyan 
studentsr  took  their  mid-year  examinations  in  the  chamber.  These 
examination  periods  were  followed  within  a  few  days  by  control  periods. 
The  results  showed  no  material  influence  of  mental  activity  upon  the 
transformation  of  energy  and  matter  in  the  body. 

One  of  the  most  far-reaching  and  important  investigations  was  a  study 
of  the  influence  of  inanition  on  metabolism.  A  number  of  men,  includ- 
ing one  professional  faster,  fasted  in  the  respiration  chamber  for  periods 
ranging  from  two  to  seven  days. 

The  calorimeter  originally  in  use  at  Wesleyan  L'niversity  has  been 
dismantled,  but  several  instruments  modeled  on  exactly  the  same  plan 
are  now  in  active  use  in  the  Nutrition   Laboratorv  in  Boston,  and  one

has  been  constructed  at  the  Department  of  Agriculture  at  Washington, 
where  the  economic  and  practical  investigations  of  general  food-stuffs 
— the  problem  originally  studied  at  Wesle5'an  University — have  since 
been  carried  out.

Department  of  Physics 

According  to  the  early  catalogues  of  Weslej-an  University,  from  the 
foundation  of  the  institution  in  1831  down  to  1843,  whatever  courses 
were  offered  in  the  Department  of  -Physics  (or,  as  it  was  then  called. 
Natural  Philosophy)  were  under  the  charge  of  the  Department  of 
Mathematics,  at  the  head  of  which  was  Professor  Augustus  W.  Smith. 
Beginning  with  1S43,  lectures  in  the  various  branches  of  physics  were 
given  by  the  Department  of  Natural  Science,  at  the  head  of  which  was 
John  Johnston,  who  had  been  appointed  Assistant  Professor  of  Mathe- 
matics and  Lecturer  in  Natural  Science  in  1835,  and  Professor  of  Natural 
Science  in  1837.  After  his  retirement  in  1873  and  until  1880,  Professor 
J.  M.  Van  Vleck  took  charge  of  the  first  courses  in  physics.  Under  his 
direction  important  acquisitions  of  modern  lecture  apparatus  in  physics 
were  secured. 

In  1880  Morris  B.  Crawford  was  appointed  Instructor  in  Physics,  his 
position  being  changed  to  that  of  Associate  Professor  in  1881,  and  of 
Professor,  in  :884.  Laboratory  work  in  physics  was  first  offered  in 
1881.  For  this  work  various  rooms  in  Observatory  Hall  were  from  time 
to  time  annexed.  The  Peithologian  and  Philorhetorian  Halls,  with 
their  adjoining  library  room,  had  already  (1879)  been  remodeled  for  the 
iise  of  the  department,  old  Peitho  having  become  the  Physical  Lecture- 
Room. 

In  1891,  the  department  was  greatly  strengthened  by  the  appointment 
as  Associate  Professor  of  Edward  Bennett  Rosa,  '86,  who  had  already 
distinguished  himself  by  the  publication  of  important  investigations  in 
electricity.  In  connection  with  his  coming,  large  accessions  were  made 
to  the  electrical  apparatus  of  the  department,  the  old  Chemical  Labora- 
tory referred  to  in  the  Introduction  was  fitted  up  as  an  electrical 
laboratory,  and  a  dynamo  room  and  a  machine  shop  were  installed  in 
the  boiler  house.  In  1892  Associate  Professor  Rosa  was  made  Professor. 
He  was  associated  with  Professor  Atwater  in  the  construction  and  perfec- 
tion of  the  respiration  calorimeter.     In  addition  to  this  he  conducted. 


22  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

and  published  the  results  of,  important  researches,  more  particularly 
concerning  alternating  electric  currents,  for  the  study  of  which,  among 
other  things,  he  devised  an  ingenious  and  unique  curve  tracer. 

In  the  fall  of  1901,  Professor  Rosa  was  appointed  Physicist  of  the  then 
recently  established  National  Bureau  of  Standards.  At  the  close  of  the 
college  year  1901-02  he  removed  to  Washington,  D.  C,  although  he 
remained  a  member  of  the  faculty  of  Wesleyan  University,  on  leave, 
until  a  year  later. 

In  1902  Walter  Guyton  Cady  was  appointed  Instructor  in  Physics,  in 
charge  of  the  department  of  Electricity.  In  1903  Dr.  Cady  was  made 
Associate  Professor,  and,  in  1907,  Professor,  of  Pln-sics.  From  1900  to 
1902  he  had  held  a  responsible  position  in  the  United  States  Coast  Survey, 
and,  after  coming  to  Middletown,  he  devised  a  self-recording  and  direct- 
reading  magnetic  variometer,  one  of  which  has  been  adopted  for  use 
at  the  Solar  Observatory  of  the  Carnegie  Institution  on  Mt.  Wilson, 
California.  Professor  Cady's  later  researches  have  been  chiefly  con- 
cerning the  electric  arc  between  metals,  and  the  detection  of  high- 
frequency  electric  oscillations. 

On  June  30,  1903,  the  corner-stone  of  the  present  physical  laboratory, 
the  John  Bell  Scott  Memorial,  was  laid.  The  building  was  dedicated  on 
December  7,  1904,  and  in  January,  1905,  all  the  work  of  the  department 
was  transferred  thither.  The  building  was  the  gift  of  the  late  Charles 
Scott,,  of  Philadelphia,  Trustee  of  Wesleyan  University  from  1880  till 
his  death  in  1904,  and  of  his  son,  Mr.  Charles  Scott,  of  the  class  of  '86, 
in  memory  of  John  Bell  Scott,  of  the  class  of  '81,  who  died  from  disease 
contracted  while  serving  as  Chaplain  on  the  LTnited  States  Cruiser 
"St.  Paul"  during  the  Spanish-American  war.  The  building,  with 
its  furnishings,  cost  over  $120,000.  Externally  it  is  an  elegant  and 
imposing  structure,  and  internally  it  proves  itself  to  be  conveniently 
arranged,  and  adapted  to  the  demands  of  a  first-class  modern  physical 
laboratory. 

An  adequate  allowance  is  made  from  year  to  year  by  the  college  for 
the  purchase  of  supplies  and  for  incidental  expenses,  while  for  additions 
of  permanent  apparatus,  besides  allowances  from  time  to  time  from  the 
general  treasury  of  the  college,  the  department  has  the  income  of  the 
Crawford  Memorial  Fund,  a  fund  of  $5,000  given  in  1906  by  Mr.  Hanford 
Crawford,  of  St.  Louis,  in  memory  of  Reverend  Morris  D'Camp  Crawford, 
Trustee  of  Wesleyan  University  from  1871  to  1896.  Also  the  college 
machine  shop,  which,  since  its  establishment  in  1891,  has  been  in  charge 
of  an  expert  mechanician,  has  made  possible  the  construction  on  the

spot  of  many  important  pieces  of  apparatus  used  for  lecture  purposes 
and  for  research. 

Of  those  who  have  been  Assistants  in  Physics  in  recent  years,  the  fol- 
lowing ma)'  be  referred  to  as  having  subsequently  secured  positions  of 
collegiate  rank  or  of  significance  in  lines  of  research:

The  Department  of  Biology 

The  Department  of  Biology  was  organized  as  a  separate  department 
at  Wesleyan  University  by  Professor  Conn  in  1884.  The  most  important 
work  of  research  that  has  been  carried  on  in  the  laboratory  has  been  in 
bacteriology.  This  was  begun  shortly  after  the  department  was  organ- 
ized, and  in  the  year  1888  special  attention  was  directed  to  bacteria  in 
dairy  products,  a  field  which  up  to  that  time  had  been  almost  ignored. 
A  few  observations  had  been  made  on  the  general  subject  in  Europe, 
but  practically  nothing  was  known  about  it  on  this  side  of  the  Atlantic. 
The  establishment  of  the  Storrs  Experiment  Station  under  the  direc- 
tion of  Professor  Atwater  made  it  possible  to  associate  the  work  of  the 
Biological  Laboratory  with  that  of  the  Experiment  Station,  and  there 
was  begun  in  1889  a  series  of  investigations  in  dairy  bacteriology  which 
have  resulted  in  many  important  changes  in  dairy  methods  in  this 
country.  For  several  years  the  laboratory  at  Wesleyan  remained  the 
only  place  in  the  United  States  where  work  was  done  on  this  subject; 
but  its  importance  is  now  generall}'  recognized,  and  dairj'  bacteriology

iri  being  studied  and  practised  all  over  the  country.  The  present  method 
of  cream  ripening,  which  controls  the  making  of  butter  by  the  use  of 
artificial  starters  which  are  bacteria  cultures,  is  likewise  the  result  of 
work  commenced  here. 

THE   STATE    BACTERIOLOGICAL   LABORATORY 

The  Connecticut  Legislature  of  1904  passed  a  bill  authorizing  the 
State  Board  of  Health  to  organize  a  State  Bacteriological  Laboratory. 
The  State  Board  asked  Professor  Conn  to  organize  and  direct  the 
work.  The  authorities  at  Wesleyan  put  at  his  disposal  sufficient 
laboratorj-  space  for  the  carrying  out  of  the  undertaking;  and  the  actual 
work  was  begun  in  the  winter  of  1905.  The  amount  of  work  done  at 
the  laboratory  has  been  constantly  growing  until  it  is  now  about  six  times 
as  great  as  it  was  the  first  A'ear.  The  number  of  specimens  examined 
during  the  last  year  was  nearly  ten  thousand.  The  scope  of  the  work 
has  also  been  increasing  as  new  discoveries  have  made  it  possible  for 
such  a  laboratory  to  be  of  practical  use  in  more  varied  ways.  At  the 
present  time,  the  laboratory  undertakes  the  diagnosis  of  tuberculosis, 
diptheria,  typhoid  fever,  malaria,  rabies,  gonorrhea,  glanders,  and  occa- 
sionally certain  other  diseases.  The  examination  of  the  milk  supply  of 
the  state  is  also  conducted  here. 

In  addition  to  the  routine  work  a  number  of  other  investigations  have 
been  pursued.  Among  them  have  been:  the  eft'ect  of  ozone  as  a  means 
of  disinfecting  water  and  milk,  the  effect  of  lactic  acid  organisms  upon 
typhoid  bacteria  in  milk,  and  the  action  of  concentrated  milk  upon  the 
growth  of  typhoid  bacteria.  An  investigation  has  also  been  made  of 
the  Connecticut  epidemics  of  poliomyelitis.  By  the  study  of  the  epid- 
emic of  typhoid  fever  which  occurred  at  Wesle^^an  in  iiS94,  it  was  here 
established  beyond  doubt  that  the  raw  oj-ster  was  an  agent  in  distribut- 
ing typhoid  fever. 

The  work  of  the  laboratory  brings  it  into  contact  with  most  of  the 
physicians  of  Connecticut.  Students  at  Wesle3-an  who  are  interested 
in  medical  problems  with  a  view  to  future  study  of  medicine  or  in  the 
study  of  bacteriology  itself  as  a  profession,  have  the  opportunity  of 
working  here  and  of  learning  methods  of  bacteriological  analysis  from 
practical  experience. 

In  1907  the  name  of  this  laboratory  was  changed,  and  it  is  now  known 
as  the  Laboratories  of  the  State  Board  of  Health.  Professor  Conn  is 
the  nominal  head  of  these  laboratories  and  has  personal  oversight  of  the 
investigations  alread}-  mentioned.     Mr.  James  A.  Newlands,  Chemist  of 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  25 

the  Board,  has  charge  of  another  important  branch  of  the  work.  Under 
his  direction  extensive  examinations  of  the  drinking  water  of  the  state 
and  of  the  effluents  from  the  various  sewage  beds  are  being  conducted, 
and  at  the  same  time  a  survey  of  the  water  sheds  of  the  state  is  being 
made.  Recently  a  thorough  study  was  made  of  the  oyster  beds  of 
New  Haven  harbor  for  the  purpose  of  determining  the  sanitary  condi- 
tions existing  there,  and  a  bill  is  now  before  the  legislature  to  extend 
this  work  along  the  whole  Connecticut  coast.  The  copper  content  of 
the  oyster,  and  its  effect  on  its  color,  are  also  being  investigated. 

In  the  researches  of  these  laboratories  five  persons  are  employed.    The 
work  is  done  in  three  rooms  of  Scott  Hall  and  in  one  of  Judd  Hall. 


Department  of  Phii.osophy 

The  present  organization  of  the  Department  of  Philosophy  at  Wesleyan 
dates  from  188S.  Certain  philosophical  subjects  were  taught  by  Joseph 
Cummings  during  the  term  of  his  presidenc}^  (1857-75),  and  for  the  two 
following  years  while  he  occupied  the  chair  of  Mental  Philosophy  and 
Political  Economy.  He  resigned  from  this  position  in  1877,  and  for 
eleven  years  thereafter  the  department  was  in  the  charge  of  instructors 
— often  capable  thinkers,  but  who  served  only  a  few  years  each.  Since 
1888  the  several  courses  of  study  and  the  department  as  a  whole  have 
been  developed  in  accordance  with  settled  plans.  From  time  to  time 
the  scope  of  the  work  has  been  enlarged — natural  scientists  will  be 
specially  interested  in  the  founding  of  the  Laboratory  of  Psychology 
in  1894 — but  the  progress  has  been  organic  and  along  connected  lines. 

Among  these  fixed  aims  has  been  the  cultivation  of  friendly  relations 
with  the  sciences  of  physical  nature.  Philosophy  and  psychology  form, 
as  it  were,  links  between  the  physical  sciences  on  the  one  hand,  and  the 
"humanities" — Geisteswissenschaften — on  the  other.  With  the  latter 
they  are  even  more  intimately  related  than  with  the  former.  But  with 
these  also  they  always  should  stand — and  at  the  present  time  they  com- 
monly do  stand — in  relations  of  reciprocal  friendship  and  aid.  Thus 
science  and  philosophy  come  together  at  various  points  on  the  borders 
of  their  respective  fields:  in  logic  and  methodology;  in  empirical  psy- 
chology, especially  in  its  physiological  and  experimental  developments; 
even  in  philosophy  proper,  where  data  for  speculative  interpretation 
are  supplied  by  science,  and  philosophy  repays  the  debt  by  aiding 
science  in  the  establishment  of  its  own  foundation  principles.  These 
connections  have  been  kept  steadily  in  mind  by  the  present  staff  of  the 


26  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

Wesleyan  department.  And  it  is  hoped  that  in  this  way  something 
has  been  accomplished  in  the  fiirtherance  of  intellectual  interests  within 
the  college,  and  even  in  the  promotion  of  knowledge  at  large. 


THE  MIDDLETOWN  SCIENTIFIC  ASSOCIATION 

The  Middletown  Scientific  Association,  though  having  no  organic 
connection  with  the  college,  is  an  important  auxiliary  to  the  work  of 
the  college  in  scientific  edvication.  It  was  founded  in  187 1.  At  that 
time  thfe  scientific  work  of  the  college  was  starting  on  a  new  era.  Until 
1868,  John  Johnston,  the  loved  and  honored  Professor  of  Natural  Science, 
did  all  the  teaching  that  was  done  in  the  sciences  of  nature,  excepting 
that  the  Professor  of  Mathematics  taught  astronomy  and  gave  a  part 
of  the  instruction  in  physics.  In  1868  William  North  Rice  entered 
upon  his  work  in  the  college,  bearing  until  1884  the  title.  Professor  of 
Geology  and  Natural  History,  his  department  representing  substantially 
the  departments  of  geology  and  biology,  as  recognized  to-day.  The 
Orange  Judd  Hall  of  Natural  Science  was  in  process  of  erection  in  1871, 
and  was  completed  and  dedicated  in  the  summer  of  1872.  About  the 
beginning  of  the  year  187 1,  George  Brown  Goode,  of  the  class  of  1870, 
afterwards  the  famous  Director  of  the  National  Museum  in  Washington, 
returned  to  Wesleyan  as  Assistant  in  the  Museum.  He  entered  upon 
the  task  of  getting  together  the  fragmentary  material  illustrative  of 
geological  and  biological  science,  scattered  in  a  number  of  different 
rooms,  and  organizing  it  iiito'  the  beginning  of  a  Museum  to  be  placed 
in  Judd  Hall  when  that  building  was  ready  for  its  reception.  Plans 
for  a  reformation  of  the  curriculum  and  the  extension  of  the  work  in 
natural  science  were  under  consideration  in  the  faculty,  resulting  in  the 
adoption  of  a  new  course  of  study  in  1873,  in  which  the  elective  system 
was  largely  introduced,  and  provision  was  made  for  numerous  courses 
in  scientific  studies.  It  was  in  1873  that  Wilbur  Olin  At  water  came  to 
the  college  as  Instructor  in  Chemistry. 

The  prime  mover  in  the  organization  of  the  Middletown  Scientific 
Association  was  George  Brown  Goode;  and,  during  the  years  in  which 
he  maintained  his  connection  with  the  college,  he  was  one  of  the  most 
active  workers  in  the  Association.  It  included,  of  course,  at  the 
beginning,  the  few  scientific  men  in  the  faculty,  and  a  number  of 
students  in  the  upper  classes  who  were  interested  in  scientific  study. 
It  included  also  a  number  of  members  of  the  faculty  in  other  depart- 
ments,  who  had  at  least  a  sympathetic  interest  in  the  work  of  their 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  27 

scientific  colleagues.  A  number  of  physicians  and  other  men  in  the 
town  of  greater  or  less  scientific  attainments  also  joined  the  Association 
at  the  beginning.  Special  mention  should  be  made  of  one  who  was  the 
first  President  of  the  Scientific  Association,  and  who  filled  that  position 
for  more  than  ten  years,  Frederic  Gardiner,  Professor  in  Berkeley 
Divinity  School.  Dr.  Gardiner's  own  studies  were  chiefly,  as  implied 
in  the  official  position  that  he  held,  in  Biblical  lines;  but  in  an  amateur 
wa}-  he  was  greatly  interested  in  scientific  studies.  His  attractive 
character,  his  broad  and  genial  sympathy  with  all  wholesome  and 
progressive  intellectual  activity,  made  him  an  ideal  man  for  the  first 
president  of  such  an  organization.  The  prosperity  and  usefulness  of 
the  Association  in  its  early  years  were  very  largely  due  to  the  influence 
of  Professor  Gardiner. 

In  the  course  of  the  years,  naturally  the  scientific  professors  and 
instructors  in  the  college  have  furnished  the  majority  of  the  papers 
which  have  been  presented,  though,  especially  in  recent  years,  a  good 
many  scientific  men  of  high  reputation  from  abroad  have  been  willing 
to  give  lectures  before  the  association.  At  first  the  meetings  of  the 
association  were  private,  with  the  exception  of  occasional  public 
meetings  to  which  a  wider  audience  was  invited.  In  recent  years  the 
public  has  been  freely  invited  to  all  meetings;  and  the  meetings  of  the 
Scientific  Association  have  been  an  important  part  of  the  work  which 
Wesleyan  University  has  done  in  the  education  of  the  public,  as  well  as 
in  the  education  of  those  enrolled  as  students.

OBITUARY 

Augustus  William  Smith  * 

.  .  .  Dr.  Smith  was  a  native  of  Herkimer  County,  N.  Y.,  and  born 
May  12,  1802;  his  father  was  a  respectable  farmer,  a  man  of  strong  mind 
and  influence,  a  leading  member  in  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church, 
whose  friendly  house  was  ever  the  welcome  home  of  the  itinerant. 
Under  the  preparation  of  the  Rev.  Dr.  Wicks,  Paris  Hill,  N.  Y.,  he 
entered  the  freshman  class  of  Hamilton  College,  and  in  scholarship  he 
had  no  superiors  among  his  classmates,  graduating  with  the  highest 
honors  in  the  year  1825.  He  was  engaged  immediately  as  a  teacher  in 
the  Cazenovia  Seminary  of  the  Oneida  Conference,  just  then  established, 
and  soon  after  elected  its  Principal.  .   .   . 


*  From  a  memorial  article  wrilten  by  G.  P.  Disosway,  Methodist  Quarterly  Review, 
49  (1867),  99. 


6o  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

While  at  Cazenovia,  Mr.  Smith  was  married  to  Catharine  Childs,  the 
daughter  of  the  Hon.  Perry  G.  Childs  of  that  place;  and  his  excellent 
lady,  with  two  sons  and  two  daughters,  survives  him.  ...  In  1S50 
Hamilton  College,  his  alma  mater,  conferred  on  him  the  degree  of 
LL.  D.,  and  afterward  the  same  honor  was  bestowed  by  Rutgers  College, 
N.  J.,  and  also  by  a  Southern  University.  During  the  sickness  and 
absence  of  Dr.  Fisk  he  often  discharged  the  responsibility  of  president 
of  the  Wesleyan  University  with  great  fidelity  and  success,  securing  the 
sincere  attachment  of  the  students.  What  increased  the  interest  and 
value  of  his  class  exercises,  was  his  concise,  clear,  and  beautiful  method 
and  talent  of  imparting  knowledge  and  science.  No  one,  we  can 
imagine,  could  excel  him  in  the  faculty  of  fixing  the  attention  of  the 
pupil  to  the  subject  before  him,  so  that  he  could  grasp  its  difficulties 
and  understand  them.  By  natural  genius  and  patient  study  Dr.  Smith 
became  eminently  qualified  for  teaching,  particularly  in  his  own  special 
professorship.  With  an  exalted  sense  of  the  value  of  the  sciences  he 
taught,  and  with  simple  and  direct  methods,  he  could  not  fail,  in  spite 
of  frequent  ill  health,  to  become,  as  he  did,  a  successful  and  able 
teacher.  Scholarly  and  learned,  clear  in  perception  and  statement, 
vigilant,  gentle,  and  gentlemanly,  he  always  secured  affection,  respect, 
and  confidence.  He  was  everywhere  unostentatious  and  quiet;  still, 
in  the  highest  circles  of  education  and  science,  among  his  literary 
peers,  his  superior  worth  was  cheerfully  acknowledged. 

In  1849  Dr.  Smith  published  an  "  Elementary  Treatise  on  Mechanics," 
a  valuable  text-book  for  undergraduates,  and  a  second  edition  was 
issued  in  1S58.  He  was  one  of  the  astronomical  corps  sent  by  the  U.  S. 
Government  to  Labrador  to  make  observations  upon  the  annular  eclipse 
of  the  sun,  and  the  well  knovm  learned  Professor  Bache  at  the  time 
stated  that  some  of  them  were  of  great  scientific  value.  In  1852  he  was 
chosen  President  of  the  Wesleyan  University,  the  successor  to  the 
lamented  and  eloquent  Dr.  Clin.  Accustomed  to  the  duties  of  this 
important  office,  he  performed  them  with  distinguished  fidelity  and 
talent.  Although  not  eminently  gifted  as  a  public  speaker,  his  words 
were  often  impressive  and  effective.  In  1859  he  received  the  appoint- 
ment of  Professor  of  Natural  and  Experimental  Philosophy  in  the 
United  States  Naval  Academy  at  Annapolis,  which  he  retained  until  his 
decease.  In  this  national  school,  the  last  scene  of  his  labors,  his 
intellectual  and  moral  worth  will  long  be  remembered.  At  his  death 
the  National  Intelligencer  contained  a  communication  on  the  sorrowful 
occasion,  referring  to  his  other  characteristics  besides  those  of  the  able 
teacher. 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  6 1 

"As  head  of  the  department  of  natural  philosophy,  by  his  high  attain- 
ments, and  no  less  by  his  quiet  energy,  he  contributed  largely  to  the 
efficiency  of  the  naval  academy  as  a  school  for  educating  young  men 
for  discharging  the  responsible  duties  of  naval  officers. 

"  As  an  instructor  he  was  a  model.  His  style  and  method  were  clear 
and  luminous.  Laborioiis  in  the  preparation  of  his  lectures,  he  was  at 
all  times  ready  to  impart  imformation.  His  manner  in  the  lecture-room 
was  highly  attractive.  He  never,  by  act,  word,  or  look,  disparaged  the 
efforts  or  undervalued  the  acquirements  of  his  pupils.  Earnest  and 
thorough,  his  perfect  mastery  of  the  branches  taught,  and  his  skill  and 
long  experience,  enabled  him  to  develop  the  minds  of  those  committed 
to  his  charge  to  an  unusual  degree. 

"As  an  associate,  his  uniform  courtesy,  his  high  moral  character,  his 
ripe  judgment,  and  kindness  of  heart  made  him  ver}-  dear  to  us.  We 
knew  him  not  only  as  an  officer  but  as  a  friend." 


John  Johnston* 

It  is  somewhat  remarkable  that,  since  the  death  of  President  Olin  in 
1851,  no  death  has  occurred  among  the  actual  members  of  the  faculty  of 
Wesleyan  University  (though  several  have  occurred  among  ex-members) 
iintil  the  college  was  called  upon  to  mourn  the  loss  of  its  senior  professor 
on  the  first  day  of  the  present  month.  It  is,  indeed,  only  the  fourth  time 
that  the  ranks  of  the  faculty  have  been  broken  by  death  since  the  founda- 
tion of  the  college.  In  Dr.  Johnston's  professorial  career  of  forty-four 
years,  his  own  history  became  more  closely  identified  with  the  history  of 
the  college  than  that  of  any  other  man.  Entering  the  faculty  only  four 
years  after  the  foundation  of  the  college,  he  knew  the  feebleness  of  its 
early  days,  and  the  earnest  toil  and  sacrifice  by  which  its  existence  was 
maintained  and  its  progress  insured.  And  he  lived  to  see  the  fruit  of 
his  own  and  others'  labors  in  its  present  prosperity  and  power.  The 
link  that  bound  the  present  with  the  past  of  the  college  is  broken  now. 
The  present  faculty  belongs  to  another  generation.  Dr.  Johnston  had 
been  in  the  faculty  fifteen  years  when  the  present  senior  professor  was 
graduated;  and  that  professor's  official  term  commenced  in  the  admini- 
stration of  the  fourth  of  the  presidents  with  whom  Dr.  Johnston  was 
associated. 

Dr.  Johnston  was  born  August  23,  1806,  in  Bristol,  Me.  He  was 
graduated  from  Bowdoin  College  in   1832.      The  next  three  years  he

taught  in  Oneida  Conference  Seminary  (now  Central  New  York  Con- 
ference Seminary),  Cazenovia,  N.  Y.  In  1835  he  became  Principal  of 
that  institution.  In  the  same  year  he  was  called  to  Wesleyan  University 
as  Adjunct  Professor  of  Mathematics  and  Lecturer  on  Natural  Science. 
In  1839  he  was  elected  Professor  of  Natural  Science.  The  duties  of  that 
position  he  continued  to  discharge  until,  in  1873,  the  infirmities  of  age 
compelled  him  to  become  Professor  Emeritus.  He  continued,  however, 
to  lecture  on  Natural  Philosophy  until  1876.  After  that  time  he  was 
unable  to  render  even  that  amount  of  service,  but  his  honored  name 
retained  its  place  in  the  college  catalogue  till  his  death. 

In  1835  he  married  N.  Maria  Hamilton,  who  died  a  little  more  than  a 
year  before  her  husband.  Five  sons  w^ere  born  to  them,  of  whom  one 
died  in  infancy,  and  four  are  still  living.  These  four  were  all  graduates 
of  Wesleyan  University.  The  closing  years  of  Dr.  Johnston's  life  were 
spent  in  the  home  of  his  sons  on  Staten  Island. 

As  a  teacher,  Dr.  Johnston  was  always  beloved  by  his  pupils.  His 
geniality  and  patient  kindness,  and  the  quiet  humor  which  was  too 
loving  ever  to  become  sarcasm,  won  all  hearts.  In  his  long  term  of 
service  he  gained  such  a  host  of  friends  as  it  is  seldom  the  privilege 
of  one  man  to  possess.  I  once  heard  him  say  that  there  was  only  one  of 
the  alumni  of  the  college  with  whom  he  was  not  personally  acquainted. 
By  all  that  multitude  he  was  known  only  to  be  loved.  Many  an  alum- 
nus has  heard  of  his  death  with  such  a  shock  of  grief  as  smites  a  man 
when  he  hears  of  the  death  of  his  own  father. 

He  was,  if  possible,  more  highly  esteemed  by  his  associates  in  the 
faculty,  than  by  those  w^ho  had  known  him  only  as  their  instructor. 
The  younger  professors,  most  of  whom  had  been  his  pupils,  looked 
upon  him,  the  patriarch  of  the  faculty,  with  a  sort  of  filial  reverence. 
Especially  will  the  two  young  professors  who  came,  in  his  old  age,  to 
divide  with  him  the  duties  of  a  department  which  had  grown,  in  the 
progress  of  knowledge  and  of  thought,  too  vast  for  one  man  to  occupy, 
ever  hold  in  grateful  remembrance  the  cordiality  with  which  he  sus- 
tained them  in  their  work. 

Dr.  Johnston  was  the  author  of  text-books  on  Chemistry  and  Natural 
Philosophy,  which  passed  through  several  editions,  and  in  their  time 
were  extensively  used;  though  the  rapid  march  of  science  in  the  years 
which  have  elapsed  since  their  latest  revision  has  left  them  behind. 

Dr.  Johnston  possessed  extraordinary  skill  in  the  construction  and 
manipulation  of  apparatus.  At  a  time  when  the  limited  means  of  the 
college  precluded  the  purchase  of  many  desirable  articles  of  apparatus,  his 
remarkable  ingenuity  went  far  toward  supplying  the  lack.     His  brilliant 


WESIvEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BUI^LETIN  63 

experiment  of  solidifying  carbonic  acid,  with  apparatus  of  his  own  inven- 
tion, gave  him  a  high  reputation  among  chemical  experimenters. 

He  was  a  man  of  great  general  intelligence,  and  of  liberal  interest  in 
lines  of  study  other  than  those  to  which  his  own  life  was  mainly  devoted. 
He  took  a  deep  interest  in  local  history,  which  led  to  the  preparation  of 
an  elaborate  volume  on  the  "History  of  the  Towns  of  Bristol  and  Bremen, 
Maine,"  published  in  1873 — his  last  important  publication. 

Dr.  Johnston  was  a  sincere  believer  in  the  truth  of  Christianity.  For 
him  there  was  no  conflict  between  science  and  religion.  That  conflict 
he  avoided,  not  by  denying  or  ignoring  the  facts  and  probabilities  of 
science,  but  by  the  clearness  with  which  he  recognized  the  distinctness 
between  the  respective  spheres  of  science  and  religion.  In  the  early 
days,  when  many  good  men  felt  that  the  geological  doctrine  of  the  great 
antiquity  of  the  earth  was  inimical  to  Christianity,  he  boldly  recognized 
the  truth  of  science,  and  felt  no  fears  for  the  fate  of  Christianity. 

.  .  .  Nowhere  did  his  kindliness  and  purity — his  thorough  goodness — 
appear  to  better  advantage  than  in  his  own  home.  His  home  was  a 
beautiful  example  of  what  home  should  be,  in  the  atmosphere  of  mutual 
love  and  confidence  which  ever  pervaded  it.  And  his  last  years  of 
feebleness  have  been  cheered  by  the  dutiful  affection  of  sons  worthy  of 
such  a  father.   ... 

George  Brown  Goode  * 

During  the  summer  vacation  the  alumni  of  Wesleyan  University  have 
lost  from  their  ranks  one  most  eminent  for  scientific  attainments  and 
public  services. 

G.  Brovm  Goode  was  born  in  New  Albany,  Ind.,  February  13,  1S51, 
and  died  in  Washington,  D.  C,  September  6,  1S96 — a  life  short  in  years, 
but  long  as  measured  by  its  achievements. 

He  studied  in  Wesleyan  University,  and  was  graduated  in  1S70.  His 
work  in  college  in  the  studies  of  the  natural  historj-  group  attracted  the 
favorable  notice  of  his  teachers,  and  led  to  his  appointment  as  Assistant 
Curator  of  the  Museum.  After  a  few  months  of  graduate  study  in 
Harvard  University,  he  entered  upon  his  work  in  Weslej-an  in  1871. 

The  Orange  Judd  Hall  of  Natural  Science,  the  munificent  gift  of 
Orange  Judd,  was  then  in  process  of  erection.  It  was  dedicated  during 
Commencement  week  in  1871.  Before  that  time  the  Natural  History 
collections  of  Wesleyan  University  were  scattered  in  several  buildings.

Bulletin,  No.  iq,  November,  1896.

very  imperfectly  labeled  and  arranged,  and  most  inaccessible  to  students 
or  visitors.  The  spacious  rooms  in  Judd  Hall  first  gave  the  opportunity 
to  arrange  and  display  those  collections  in  such  a  manner  as  to  give 
them  the  dignity  of  a  museum.  It  was  in  the  installation  of  the  com- 
paratively humble  collections  in  Judd  Hall  that  Dr.  Goode  first  showed 
that  genius  for  museum  administration  which  he  was  destined  after- 
wards to  display  in  a  larger  field.  In  187 1,  his  title  was  changed  to 
Curator  of  the  Museum,  and  in  that  capacity  his  name  appears  in  the 
catalogues  until  1879. 

The  United  States  Connnission  of  Fish  and  Fisheries  was  organized 
about  the  time  that  Dr.  Goode  commenced  his  work  in  the  Wesleyan 
Museum.  In  the  early  years  of  the  decade  between  1870  and  1880,  the 
work  of  exploration  of  the  marine  zoology  of  our  coast,  under  the 
auspices  of  the  Fish  Commission,  was  largely  carried  on  by  officers  of 
various  colleges,  who  were  willing  to  serve  as  volunteer  assistants,  for 
the  opportunities  which  the  service  afforded  of  study  and  of  collecting 
for  the  museums  with  which  they  were  connected.  In  this  capacity. 
Dr.  Goode  worked  for  several  summers,  and  rich  collections  were  added 
each  year  to  the  Museum  of  Wesleyan.  To  Dr.  Goode,  the  work  of 
these  summers  in  the  Fish  Commission  opened  the  way  to  the  official 
career  in  which  he  was  destined  to  achieve  such  distinction. 

It  was  in  the  summer  of  1872,  at  Eastport,  that  he  first  attracted  the 
attention  of  Professor  Baird,  who  was  then  at  the  head  of  both  the  Fish 
Commission  and  the  National  Museum.  Professor  Baird  invited  him  to 
spend  the  following  winter  in  Washington,  to  classify  and  distribute  an 
immense  amount  of  duplicate  material  which  had  accumulated  in  the 
National  Museum,  taking  his  pay  in  specimens  for  the  Museum  of 
Wesleyan.  He  became  thus  an  Assistant  in  the  National  Museum, 
while  still  holding  the  position  of  Curator  at  Wesleyan. 

Dr.  Goode  was  soon  recognized  as  indispensable  in  the  National 
Museum.  In  1875  he  was  made  Assistant  Curator;  and,  in  1877,  he  was 
promoted  to  be  Curator.  In  1881,  he  was  made  Assistant  Director;  and 
on  the  death  of  Professor  Baird,  in  1887,  Dr.  Goode  became  Director  of 
the  National  Museum  and  Assistant  Secretary  of  the  Smithsonian 
Institution.  To  his  genius  is  largely  due  the  eminent  rank  which  the 
United  States  National  Museum  now  holds  among  the  great  museums 
of  the  world,  in  point  of  methods  of  installation  and  arrangement.  But 
the  work  of  the  National  Museum  itself  is  only  a  part  of  the  museum 
work  which  Dr.  Goode  accomplished.  He  was  in  charge  of  the  exhibits 
made  by  the  National  Museum  at  the  Centennial  Exposition  in  Phila- 
delphia, at  the  expositions  in  New  Orleans,  Cincinnati,  Louisville,  and 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  65 

Atlanta,  and  at  the  Columbian  Exposition  in  Chicago;  and  each  of  these 
expositions  gave  new  evidence  of  his  master}-  of  nmseiim  administration. 

The  connection  with  the  U.  S.  Fish  Commission  which  he  formed  as  a 
volunteer  assistant  in  1872,  he  kept  up  for  many  years.  In  1877-78,  he 
was  employed  by  the  United  States  as  statistical  expert  in  the  proceed- 
ings of  the  Fishery  Arbitration  Commission  at  Halifax.  In  1889-91,  he 
had  charge  of  the  investigation  of  the  fisheries  for  the  United  States 
Census.  He  was  Commissioner  for  the  United  States  at  the  fishery 
exhibitions  in  Berlin  in  1880,  and  in  London,  in  1883.  In  1887  he  was 
appointed  U.  S.  Commissioner  of  Fish  and  Fisheries;  but  there  was  a 
limit  even  to  his  power  of  administrative  work,  and  he  accepted  the 
appointment  only  to  provide  for  a  temporary  emergency  in  the  history 
of  the  Commission  and  speedily  resigned. 

In  museum  administration.  Dr.  Goode  was  preeminent.  He  was 
master  of  it  in  theory  and  practice.  He  had  seen  and  studied  all  the 
important  museums  of  Europe;  and  knowledge  of  all  that  was  best  in 
the  experience  of  other  institutions  joined  with  inventive  genius  to 
make  his  work  in  the  National  Museum  so  admirable. 

The  amount  of  administrative  work  belonging  to  the  various  offices 
which  he  held,  left  comparatively  little  time  for  scientific  investigation. 
He  accepted  loyally  and  unselfishly  the  duties  of  the  offices  to  which  he 
was  called,  sacrificing  in  large  degree  the  reputation  wjiich  he  might 
have  gained  as  an  original  investigator  in  science.  He  sacrificed,  indeed, 
not  only  reputation,  but  eventually  even  life,  for  it  was  undoubtedly 
the  overwork  demanded  by  his  manifold  official  duties  that  enfeebled 
his  constitution,  and  made  him  an  easy  prey  to  the  final  attack  of 
disease. 

His  purely  scientific  work  was  in  the  line  of  Icththyology.  He  was 
especially  an  authority  on  the  pelagic  and  abyssal  fishes.  The  great 
work  on  Oceanic  Icthyolog}^  of  which  he  and  Dr.  T.  H.  Bean  were  joint 
authors,  was  published  in  1895.  He  was  also  an  authorit}'  on  the  subject 
of  fisheries.  He  was  the  chief  editor  of  the  seven  quarto  volumes  on 
the  Fisheries  and  Fishery  Industries  of  the  United  States,  published  by 
the  U.  S.  Fish  Commission. 

He  had  a  fondness  for  bibliographical,  genealogical,  and  statistical 
work,  which  led  him  sometimes  altogether  aside  from  his  purely  scientific 
pursuits.  He  was  one  of  the  editors  of  the  editions  of  1873  and  1883  of 
the  Alumni  Record  of  Wesleyan  University.  His  work  on  the  history  of 
his  own  family  was  published  under  the  title,  "  Our  Virginia  Cousins." 

Throughout  his  life  he  cherished  a  loving  and  loyal  interest  in  the 
college  with  which  his  early  3'ears  of  study  were  associated,  and  which 


66  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

Avas  proud  to  recognize  his  later  achievements  by  giving  him  the  honor- 
ary degree  of  LL.  D.  He  was  the  donor  of  the  Goode  Prize,  which  has 
helped  to  stimulate  interest  in  the  studies  which  he  so  loved. 

He  was  a  man  pure,  honest,  and  generous  in  every  relation.  In  the 
life  of  the  national  capital,  where  the  crookedness  of  politics  sometimes 
penetrates  into  the  scientific  bureaus,  he  maintained  unswerving  integ- 
rity. His  sympathy,  counsel,  and  help  were  always  ready  for  any  of  his 
fellow  workers  in  science.  His  death  was  felt  as  a  personal  bereave- 
ment by  all  the  emploj-ees  of  the  Smithsonian  Institution,  from  the 
highest  officer  to  the  humblest  laborer.  To  know  him  was  to  respect 
him.     To  know  him  well  was  to  love  him. 


Wilbur  Olin  Atwater  * 

Coming  here  to-day  as  an  officer  of  the  United  States  Government  to 
do  honor  to  a  long-time  associate  in  the  public  service,  and  to  recount 
some  of  the  work  which  he  did  as  a  public  man,  I  feel  that  I  should  fail 
of  my  whole  duty  if  I  did  not  at  the  outset  say  that  I  have  come  also 
to  express  my  deep  interest  in  Professor  Atwater  as  a  personal  friend. 
Brought  for  a  long  period  into  very  close  personal  relations  with  him, 
and  having  revealed  to  me  in  a  most  intimate  way  his  heart  and  mind, 
I  came  to  respect  and  love  the  man  in  an  uniisual  degree,  and  to  count 
among  my  greatest  treasures  his  hearty  and  unswerving  friendship.  It 
is,  therefore,  with  the  sense  of  a  great  personal  bereavement  that  I  come 
to  say  a  few  words  in  his  honor  to-day;  and,  however  imperfect  my 
tribute  may  be,  my  heart  goes  with  it. 

When  Mr.  Atwater  graduated  from  Wesleyan  L"ni versify  in  1865,  a 
great  movement  was  already  under  way  in  Europe  and  the  United  States 
in  which  he  was  destined  to  take  an  important  part.  The  use  which 
might  be  made  of  science,  and  particularly  of  chemistry,  to  benefit 
agriculture,  had  many  years  before  been  pointed  out  and  to  a  certain 
extent  demonstrated  by  the  work  of  such  men  as  Liebig  in  Germany, 
Boussingault  in  France,  and  Lawes  and  Gilbert  in  England.   . '.   . 

Meanwhile,  in  the  United  States,  Yale  College  had  made  John  P. 
Norton  professor  of  agricultural  chemistry  and  vegetable  and  animal 
physiology  in  1846,  and  after  his  death  S.  W.  Johnson  had  succeeded 
him,  who  not  only  taiight  agricultural  chemistry,  but  also  wrote  the 
important  text-book  entitled,   "How  Crops   Grow,"  first  published  in 


*  From  an  address  by  Alfred  Charles  True  ou  the  occasion  of  a  memorial  service 
held  at  Wesleyan  University,  October  6,  1907. 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  67 

186S,  and  carried  on  laboratory  investigations  on  his  own  account.  He 
-was  joined  in  1864  by  William  H.  Brewer  as  professor  of  agrictilture.  .  .  . 

Mr.  Atwater  received  the  degree  of  doctor  of  philosophj^  from  Yale 
University  in  1869,  after  a  period  principally  spent  in  studying  agricul- 
tural chemistry  under  Professor  Johnson.  There  he  also  came  under 
the  influence  of  Professor  Brewer.  At  this  time  he  showed  a  desire  to 
work  in  fields  of  science  giving  promise  of  early  enlargement,  and 
manifested  an  ability  to  forecast  correctly  the  lines  of  development — 
characteristics  which  largely  determined  his  future  success.   .   .   . 

From  1869  to  1871  he  studied  agricultural  and  physiological  chemistry 
at  the  Universities  of  Leipsic  and  Berlin,  and  acquainted  himself  with 
the  European  agricultural  experiment  stations.  After  his  return  to 
America  his  first  experience  as  a  college  professor  was  at  the  University 
of  Tennessee  and  the  Maine  State  College.  He  was  thus  brought  into 
close  touch  with  the  national  movement  for  agricultural  education  and 
research. 

Coming  to  Wesleyan  University  in  1873  as  professor  of  chemistry,  he 
was  again  brought  into  close  association  with  Professors  Johnson  and 
Brewer  at  New  Haven,  and  with  other  agricultural  leaders  in  Connecti- 
cut. He  also  became  intimate  with  Orange  Judd,  the  founder  and  long- 
time editor  of  the  America?!  Agriculturist,  who  had  but  recently  given 
to  Wesleyan,  his  alma  mater,  a  hall  of  natural  science  in  which  Pro- 
fessor Atwater  had  his  laboratory  for  more  than  tliirtj^  years. 

With  these  men  as  associates  and  advisers.  Professor  Atwater,  fresh 
from  his  observations  of  the  agricultural  experiment  stations  in  Europe, 
entered  with  enthusiasm  into  the  movement  already  on  foot  to  establish 
similar  institutions  in  the  United  States.  On  December  17,  1873,  at  the 
winter  meeting  of  the  Connecticut  State  Board  of  Agriculture,  Pro- 
fessors Johnson  and  Atwater  urged  the  establishment  of  a  station  in 
Connecticut  after  the  European  pattern.  A  long  period  of  agitation 
followed.  The  project  had  many  warm  friends,  but  the  great  mass 
of  the  farmers  took  little  interest  in  the  enterprise.  When  it  became 
apparent  that  it  could  not  otherwise  siicceed,  Mr.  Judd  offered  on  his 
own  part  f  1,000  to  begin  the  undertaking,  and,  on  the  part  of  the 
trustees  of  Wesleyan  University,  the  free  use  of  a  chemical  laboratory. 
These  offers  were  made  on  condition  that  the  State  legislature  should 
appropriate  $2,000  per  annum  for  two  years  for  the  work  of  the  station. 
An  act  making  this  appropriation  was  unanimously  passed  Jul}'  2,  1875. 
Professor  Atwater  was  made  director,  and  the  first  State  agricultural 
experiment  station  began  operations  in  October  of  that  year.  At  the 
end  of  the  two  years  provided  for  in  the  original  bill,  the  station  was 


68  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

reorganized  iinder  the  direct  control   of    the    State    and    permanently 
located  in  New  Haven. 

Without  doubt  this  action  of  the  State  was  a  great  discouragement 
to  Professor  Atwater,  but  with  his  usual  persistency  he  continued  to 
labor  earnestly  in  the  cause  of  agricultural  science.  He  organized  and 
superintended  an  extensive  series  of  field  experiments  with  fertilizers, 
accounts  of  which  were  printed  in  the  annual  reports  of  the  Connecticut 
State  Board  of  Agriculture  for  1877  and  succeeding  years.  He  also 
prepared  a  series  of  about  seventy  articles  on  science  applied  to  farming, 
which  were  published  in  the  American  Agriculturist  from  1875  to  188 1. 

As  agricultural  experiment  stations  were  established  one  after  another 
in  rapid  siiccession  in  different  states,  he  kept  in  touch  with  the  leaders 
in  this  movement;  and,  when  it  assumed  a  national  aspect  and  Congress 
was  asked  to  enact  a  general  law  granting  funds  for  stations  in  all  the 
states,  he  was  among  the  foremost  of  the  representative  leaders  of 
agricultural  advancement  who  urged  the  adoption  of  this  measure.   .  .   . 

On  the  passage  of  the  Hatch  Act  in  1887,  granting  $15,000  annually 
to  each  state  and  territory  for  the  maintenance  of  one  or  more  experi- 
ment stations,  the  Storrs  Agricultural  Experiment  Station  was  organized 
by  an  Act  of  the  Connecticut  legislature,  and  half  the  income  received 
under  the  Hatch  Act  was  granted  to  this  station.  During  this  period  a 
relatively  large  amount  of  scientific  work  along  chemical  and  other  lines 
related  to  agriculture  was  done  by  this  station  with  quite  limited  funds. 
Of  special  interest  were  Professor  Atwater's  studies  on  the  acquisition 
of  atmospheric  nitrogen  by  plants,  begun  several  years  prior  to  .the 
establishment  of  the  Storrs  Station  and  continued  as  part  of  the  work 
of  that  station  from  1888  to  1892. 

The  Hatch  Act  provided  for  the  establishment  in  the  Department  of 
Agriculture  at  Washington  of  a  central  office  for  the  promotion  of  the 
general  interests  of  the  experiment  stations  throughout  the  countr}-. 
On  the  invitation  of  Commissioner  Colman,  Professor  Atwater  consented 
to  become  the  first  director  of  the  Office  of  Experiment  Stations,  on 
condition  that  he  should  retain  the  directorship  of  the  Storrs  Station 
and  his  professorship  at  Wesleyan. 

The  Office  was  organized  October  i,  18S8.  As  his  assistants  in  the 
management  and  work  of  this  Office,  Professor  Atwater  called  in  two 
alumni  of  Wesleyan,  former  members  of  her  faculty,  Dr.  A.  W.  Harris, 
now  President  of  Northwestern  University,  and  Dr.  A.  C.  True.   .   .   . 

The  first  Farmers'  Bulletin  was  published  in  1889.  This  series  proved 
so  popular  that  it  was  soon  transferred  from  the  Office  and  made  a 
general   series  for  the  Department  of  Agriculture.      Congress  made  a 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  69 

special  printing  fund  for  them,  and  the  Congressmen  undertook  their 
distribiition  on  a  large  scale.  Some  300  of  these  bulletins  have  been 
issued,  a  large  number  of  which  were  prepared  in  the  Office  of  Experi- 
ment Stations.  The  editions  of  many  of  these  bulletins  have  aggregated 
hundreds  of  thousands  of  copies,  and  the  total  output  of  Farmers'  Bul- 
letins by  the  Department  has  been  man)-  millions  of  copies.  In  1906 
alone  more  than  6,000,000  copies  were  printed. 

The  abstract  journal  was  provided  in  the  E.vperi»ient  Station  Record, 
the  first  volume  of  which  appeared  in  1SS9.  This  has  been  developed 
into  the  most  comprehensive  journal  of  its  class  in  existence,  and  its 
circulation  among  students  and  investigators  in  agricultural  science  is 
worldwide.  The  Office  has  also  published  a  considerable  number  of 
monographs  on  special  subjects,  as  suggested  by  Professor  At  water. 

With  the  rapid  growth  of  the  experiment  station  movement  at  home 
and  abroad  and  the  recognized  success  of  the  Office  as  a  promoter  of  the 
stations'  interests,  the  business  of  this  Office  soon  increased  to  such  an 
extent  that  it  became  obvious  that  it  should  have  at  its  head  a  Chief 
who  could  devote  his  entire  time  to  its  management.  Unwilling  to 
relinquish  his  work  as  a  teacher  and  investigator.  Professor  Atwater 
wisely  decided  to  give  up  the  directorship  of  the  Office  in  1891.  Mr. 
Harris  was  appointed  to  succeed  him,  but  also  withdrew  two  years  later 
to  become  president  of  the  Maine  State  College,  and  was  in  turn  suc- 
ceeded by  the  speaker.  It  has  thus  been  possible  in  a  large  way  to 
continue  to  the  present  time  the  general  policy  of  the  Office  inaugurated 
by  Professor  Atwater. 

The  influence  of  Professor  Atwater  on  the  development  of  agricul- 
tural education  and  research  in  this  country  has  been  greatly  broadened 
through  the  men  who  came  into  direct  association  with  him  as  students 
in  his  laboratory  and  who  have  since  become  directors  of  experiment 
stations  and  professors  in  the  agricultural  colleges.  Some  of  these  men 
are  now  among  the  most  active  and  influential  leaders  in  this  national 
movement. 

Parallel  with  his  studies  in  agricultural  chemistry.  Professor  Atwater 
began  at  an  early  day  to  carry  on  investigations  in  physiological 
chemistry,  with  special  reference  to  the  problems  of  human  nutrition. 
These  studies  soon  brought  him  into  official  relations  with  national 
and  state  organizations  having  funds  which  could  be  used  to  promote 
research  in  these  lines.  Between  1879  and  18S3  he  made  a  series  of 
analyses  of  fish  for  the  United  States  Fish  Commission,  and  of  the  flesh 
of  domestic  animals  for  the  Smithsonian  Institution.  Studies  of  the 
dietaries  of  people  in  Massachusetts  and  Canada  were  also  made  for  the 
Massachusetts  Bureau  of  Statistics  and  Labor,  and  published  in  1886. 


70  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

Similar  work  was  instituted  in  connection  with  the  Storrs  Experiment 
Station;  and  in  1S93,  with  the  aid  of  Hon.  J.  Sterling  Morton,  then 
Secretary  of  Agriculture,  an  appropriation  was  obtained  from  Congress 
for  investigations  in  human  nutrition  in  cooperation  with  the  experi- 
ment stations.  Headquarters  for  this  enterprise  were  established  at 
Middletown,  Conn.,  and  Professor  Atwater  made  its  official  chief.  This 
work  was  broadly  planned,  and  steadily  developed  in  succeeding  3-ears 
until  it  became  the  most  comprehensive  investigation  on  this  subject 
ever  undertaken.  The  cooperation  of  universities,  colleges,  and  schools, 
experiment  stations,  public  institutions  and  private  organizations  of 
various  kinds,  was  secured  in  different  parts  of  the  country.  Hundreds 
of  dietary  studies  of  people  of  different  occupations  were  made  and 
the  results  of  similar  studies  throughout  the  world  were  collated. 
Numerous  digestion  experiments  with  men  were  carried  on,  and  special 
studies  made  of  the  nutritive  value  of  different  cereals,  meats,  vege- 
tables, fruits,  nuts,  the  effects  of  cooking  and  other  forms  of  preparation 
on  nutritive  value,  and  other  important  food  problems.  Special  efforts 
were  made  to  improve  methods  and  apparatus  for  such  work. 

From  a  scientific  point  of  view  the  most  important  results  of  these 
investigations  was  the  development  and  use  of  special  forms  of  bomb 
and  respiration  calorimeters,  with  the  efficient  aid  of  Professors  Rosa 
and  Woods,  and  the  skilled  mechanician,  Mr.  Blakeslee. 

The  respiration  calorimeter  was  afterwards  improved  with  the  aid  of 
Dr.  Benedict.  An  instrument  was  thus  provided  for  studying  the  effect 
of  food  in  the  development  of  energy,  which  surpasses  all  apparatus  of 
the  kind  in  range  and  accuracy  of  operation.  As  a  direct  outcome  of 
this  work,  a  respiration  calorimeter  for  use  with  the  larger  domestic 
animals  has  been  constructed  by  Dr.  Armsby  at  State  College,  Pa. 
The  studies  in  human  nutrition  already  made  \\-ith  the  Atwater-Rosa- 
Benedict  calorimeter  have  been  very  important  and  promise  to  be  still 
more  so.  Direct  evidence  has  been  obtained  that  the  law  of  the  con- 
servation of  energy  holds  good  in  the  utilization  of  food  in  the  human 
body,  as  well  as  important  data  regarding  the  actual  nutritive  value  of 
different  foods  and  the  relations  of  food  to  muscular  energy  and  mental 
work. 

As  Chief  of  Nutrition  Investigations  in  the  office  of  Experiment 
Stations,  Professor  Atwater  planned  and  supervised  investigations  which 
were  carried  on  in  about  twent}-  states.  The  results  of  this  work  are 
embodied  in  about  a  hundred  technical  and  popular  publications  issued 
by  the  United  States  Department  of  Agriculture  and  the  Storrs  Station. 
With  the  rapid  development  of  courses  in  domestic  science  in  colleges 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  71 

and  schools  throughout  the  countr}-,  and  the  lack  of  good  text-books  on 
human  nutrition,  these  government  publications  have  been  in  great 
demand  among  teachers  and  students.  Some  of  the  popular  bulletins 
have  been  issued  in  editions  aggregating  hundreds  of  thousands  of 
copies.  The  results  of  these  investigations  are  now  also  being  incor- 
porated in  text-books  and  manuals  in  this  and  other  countries. 

In  the  judgment  of  many  competent  experts,  the  nutrition  investiga- 
tions conducted  under  Professor  Atwater's  directions  vv^ere  more  thorough 
in  their  scientific  methods,  more  extended  in  the  scope  and  amount  of 
investigation,  and  more  useful  in  the  distribution  and  practical  applica- 
tion of  their  results,  than  any  other  inquiry  of  the  kind  thus  far  under- 
taken in  this  country  or  in  Europe.   .  .  .

Wesi^EYAN's  Progress. — Every  friend  of  Wesleyan  is  interested  in 
its  growth  into  a  "bigger  and  better"  Wesleyan,  into  the  best  small 
college  in  the  land.  An  increased  enrolment,  an  increased  endowment, 
a  better  paid  and  larger  faculty,  improved  library  facilities,  new  build- 
ings, improved  relations  of  the  alumni  to  the  institution,  and  improved 
standards  of  scholarship  are  planks  in  the  platform  of  progress  which 
is  outlined  in  the  following  editorials. 

Registration.  —  This  year  Wesleyan  University  has  the  largest 
attendance  in  its  history,  390  men  and  6  women.  The  next  largest 
totals  were  355  men  and  12  women  in  1910-11,  and  293  men  and  57 
women  in  1900-01.  The  freshman  class  numbers  113,  and  has  been 
surpassed  only  b}-  1914  with  133,  and  1913  with  119.  Wesleyan  should 
regularly  have  an  entering  class  of  150,  and  every  effort  should  and  will 
be  put  forth  to  assure  such  classes  in  the  future.  To  attain  this  end,  no 
lowering  of  standards  will  be  considered;  but  rather  the  contrary,  for 
Wesleyan  desires  only  those  students  who  are  competent  and  willing  to 
do  college  work  well. 

Coeducation. — Coeducation  in  the  undergraduate  courses  will  cease 
with  the  graduation  of  the  class  of  1912,  but  women  ma}'  still  be 
admitted  as  graduate  students.

WesIvEyan's  Progress. — Every  friend  of  Wesleyan  is  interested  in

Registration.  • —  This  year  Wesleyan  University  has  the  largest 
attendance  in  its  history,  390  men  and  6  women.  The  next  largest 
totals  were  355  men  and  12  women  in  1910-11,  and  293  men  and  57

admitted  as  graduate  students. 


4  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

Non-Graduates. — From  1S31  to  1909,  there  were  matriculated  in  the 
University  4,444  students,  of  whom  only  2,783,  or  62.6  per  cent,  received 
bachelor's  degrees.  There  has  been  a  slight  improvement  in  recent 
years,  65.2  per  cent  of  the  men  matriculated  having  been  gi'aduated  in  the 
last  five  classes.  Every  effort  is  being  made  to  detect  and  prevent  such 
losses  as  are  properly  avoidable,  and  it  is  hoped  that  future  classes  will 
show  an  increasing  percentage  of  graduates. 

Geographical  Distribution  of  Students.— The  Bulletin,  in  May, 
1907,  and  again  in  May,  1909,  discussed  the  geographical  distribution  of 
students,  and  suggested  that  it  was  desirable  that  the  student  body 
should  grow  more  cosmopolitan  as  it  increased.  Special  attention  was 
called  to  the  possibility  of  drawing  students  from  the  Middle  West,  but 
this  possibility  has  not  yet  been  realized  to  any  considerable  extent. 
The  attendance  from  New  England  has  remained  almost  stationary,  but 
that  from  the  Middle  States  (New  York,  New  Jersey,  Pennsylvania, 
Maryland,  and  District  of  Columbia)  has  increased  notably.  In  1906-07, 
there  were  137  men  registered  from  New  England,  147  from  the  Middle 
States,  and  19  from  other  states  or  countries.  In  191 1-12,  the  attendance 
from  New  England  is  150  men,  from  the  Middle  States,  211,  and  from 
elsewhere,  29.  Though  20  per  cent  of  the  alumni  live  outside  New 
England  and  the  Middle  States,  less  than  8  per  cent  of  the  students  are 
registered  from  outside  these  states.  It  is  highly  desirable  that  this  20 
per  cent  of  the  alumni  should  contribute  its  share  in  increasing  future 
classes. 

^  Financial  Exhibit. — The  Financial  Exhibit  for  the  year  ending 
June  30,  191 1,  shows  an  increase  in  endowment  funds  during  the  year  of 
$14,235.76,  making  the  total  $1,637,034.71.  The  total  property  of  the 
University  is  $2,718,821.64.  Thanks  to  gifts  of  $20,846.98  for  current 
expenses,  the  accounts  show  a  surplus,  the  first  for  several  years.  The 
accumulated  deficit  now  amounts  to  $89,070.53.  The  endowment  funds 
yielded  an  average  income  of  5. 114  per  cent. 

Additional  Endowment. — Excellent  progress  is  being  made  in  the 
effort  to  raise  a  million  dollars  of  additional  endowment.  President 
Shanklin,  Mr.  John  C.  Clark,  the  vice-president  of  the  board  of  trustees, 
Mr.  Clinton  D.  Burdick,  the  treasurer,  and  other  members  of  the  com- 
mittee who  have  the  work  in  charge,  have  opened  an  office  in  New  York 
City  and  are  pushing  the  campaign  with  all  possible  vigor.  It  is 
expected  that  announcement  of  the  successful  completion  of  the  work 
will  be  made  at  the  next  Commencement. 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  5 

Some  of  the  most  important  needs  to  be  met  by  increased  funds,  aside 
from  stopping  the  regularly  recurring  deficit,  are  indicated  in  the 
following  editorials. 

Salaries. — It  is  generally  recognized  that  the  first  need  to  be  met  by 
the  additional  endowment  is  the  increase  in  the  regular  salary  of  the 
professors  from  $2,500  to  $3,000.  This  and  similar  salary  increases  will 
require  an  additional  income  of  nearly  |io,ooo.  The  additional  $500 
will  not  cover  the  increased  cost  of  living  since  the  figures  were  fixed 
at  $2,500  in  1S71;  nor  will  the  sum  enable  Wesleyan  to  compete  on  even 
terms  with  larger  institutions  in  securing  members  of  the  faculty. 

Enlargement  of  the  Faculty. — With  the  exception  of  the  election 
of  a  professor  of  history  in  1900,  and  of  psychology  in  1902,  no  additional 
department  of  study  has  been  recognized  by  the  establishment  of  a 
professorship  since  1893.  The  time  has  now  arrived  when  Wesleyan 
must  meet  the  advances  made  by  sister  institutions  by  the  creation  of 
certain  new  chairs  and  the  increase  of  the  staff  in  existing  departments. 
The  rapid  growth  in  attendance  during  the  past  three  years  has  already 
overburdened  certain  departments,  and  further  increase  in  attendance 
must  be  anticipated.  A  study  of  the  present  enrolment  in  the  various, 
departments  and  a  comparison  with  the  faculties  of  corresponding 
institutions  shows  that  additional  professors  are  seriously  needed  in 
biology,  English,  economics,  and  history,  while  the  growth  of  the 
student  body  will  require  an  increase  in  the  instructing  force  in  other 
departments.  To  maintain  its  traditions  and  standards  Wesleyan  must 
increase  its  faculty  with  professors  and  associate  professors,  and  nofr 
merely  with  instructors. 

The  appointment  of  an  additional  professor  in  a  department  divides 
the  field  of  scholarship  with  which  either  must  keep  abreast,  and  so 
enables  each  professor  to  be  more  expert  in  the  subjects  which  he 
teaches.  Another  point  to  be  gained  by  the  appointment  of  additional 
professors  is  to  assure  opportunity  for  that  productive  scholarship  which 
has  ever  characterized  the  Wesleyan  faculty. 

Library. — With  88,000  volumes,  the  library  is  seriously  cramped  in 
its  present  building,  and  the  work  of  both  the  staff  and  the  students  is 
done  at  a  disadvantage.  A  new  building  is  one  of  the  necessities  of  the 
immediate  future.  Though  the  library  endowment  has  grown  to 
$100,000,  it  is  still  insufficient  to  provide  for  what  should  be  normal 
growth.  There  should  be,  therefore,  a  considerable  increase  in  the 
endowment  to  provide  for  purchases  of   books,  and  a  further  sum  to 


6  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

provide  for  maintenaace,  including  the  salaries  of  the  librarian  and  an 
adequate  number  of  assistants. 

In  a  few  departments  the  library  collections  are  so  inadequate  that 
there  is  crying  need  for  liberal  special  gifts  to  bring  these  departments 
up  to  standard.  Biography,  both  literary  and  historical;  history, 
especially  European;  political  science;  geography;  travel;  andworksof 
contemporary  and  general  interest  deserve  special  attention,  for  they 
benefit  not  one,  but  several  of  the  departments  of  instruction. 

Buildings.  —  While  the  most  serious  need  of  the  University  is 
increased  endowment,  there  are  some  pressing  material  needs  besides  a 
new  library  building.  There  should  be  increased  and  improved  facil- 
ities for  the  departments  of  mathematics,  chemistry,  and  biology.  The 
museum  should  be  so  located  that  its  extensive  and  valuable  collections 
-will  be  exposed  to  a  minimum  risk  from  fire.  A  swimming  pool  should 
"be  provided  and  other  improvements  made  in  the  gymnasium.  A 
college  union,  somewhat  similar  to  those  at  Harvard,  Pennsylvania,  and 
Brown,  would  contribute  greatly  to  the  promotion  of  a  healthy  social 
life  among  the  undergraduates.  The  anticipated  increase  in  the  student 
body  can  be  accommodated  only  by  the  erection  of  another  modern 
dormitory. 

Astronomical  Observatory.— At  a  cost  of  |S,ooo  a  plot  of  ground 
north  of  the  Foss  property  has  been  acquired  as  the  site  for  the  new 
astronomical  observatory.  The  funds  given  by  Professor  Van  Vleck 
and  his  brother  for  the  erection  of  an  observatory  now  amount  to 
148,906.40.  The  building  will  probably  be  erected  within  a  year  or 
two. 

Alumni  Council. — In  connection  with  the  campaign  for  adding  a 
million  dollars  to  the  endowment,  a  plan,  which  has  been  in  con- 
templation for  several  years,  has  finally  taken  form  in  the  organization 
of  an  alumni  council.  In  general,  "the  object  of  the  council  is  to 
advance  the  interest,  influence,  and  efficiency  of  Wesleyan  University; 
to  strengthen  the  relations  between  the  alumni  and  the  University  .  .  . 
to  provide  funds,  as  far  as  possible,  for  the  maintenance  and  endowment 
of  the  University  from  its  alumni  and  friends." 

The  organization  can  serve  effectively  by  keeping  the  alumni  regularly 
informed  and  constantly  interested  in  the  University,  by  systematic 
cooperation  in  the  raising  of  funds  and  in  the  securing  of  new  students, 
and  not  least  effectively  by  a  spirit  of  loyal  support  of  the  trustees  and 
faculty  in  the  effort  to  maintain  at  Wesleyan  the  highest  standards  of 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULI.ETIN  7 

collegiate  education.  In  these  ways  the  alumni  can  do  much  to  give 
the  University  the  desired  enrolment  of  five  hundred  men  and  make  it 
the  best  small  college  in  the  country. 

Improvement  of  Scholarship. — A  committee  of  the  faculty  was 
appointed  in  June,  1909,  to  consider  the  possibility  of  improving  student 
scholarship.  The  191 1  edition  of  the  Regulations  governing  students 
contains  numerous  minor,  and  several  important,  changes  which  are 
directly  or  indirectly  the  result  of  the  work  of  this  committee.  These 
new  regulations  are  described  on  another  page.  The  changes  have 
been  accompanied  by  the  modifications  of  the  entrance  requirements 
described  in  the  Bulletin  for  December,  1910.  The  adoption  of  these 
rules  and  requirements  assures  to  Wesleyan  its  position  in  the  small 
group  of  colleges  which  maintain  the  highest  standards  of  scholarship. 

The  principle  underlying  these  rules  is  that  the  student  should  not  be 
content  with  a  passing  grade,  or  even  a  fair  grade,  but  that  he  should 
be  stimulated  to  do  his  best  and  to  attain  honor  grades  as  far  as  possible. 
A  degree  from  Wesleyan  should  imply  not  merely  compliance  with  a 
quantitative  standard  of  work,  but  should  connote  also  a  high  quality 
of  scholarly  attainment. 

Non-Resident  Lecturers. — Visiting  lecturers,  preachers,  and  other 
speakers  are  a  valuable  supplement  to  the  regular  college  faculty,  for 
they  bring  the  points  of  view  of  other  institutions  and  of  other  con- 
ditions of  life,  and  they  give  to  both  faculty  and  students  fresh  stimulus 
and  enthusiasm  in  their  regular  work. 

Sunday  vesper  services,  with  addresses  usually  by  a  visiting  clergy- 
man, were  established  the  first  year  of  President  Shanklin's  administra- 
tion. This  year,  President  Shanklin  is  instituting  a  series  of  addresses 
to  be  given  from  time  to  time  by  well-known  laymen  at  informal 
gatherings  of  the  college  body  in  the  various  fraternity  houses.  The 
first  two  of  these  speakers  were  Mr.  Irving  Bacheller,  the  novelist,  and 
Honorable  Leslie  M.  Shaw,  ex-secretary  of  the  treasury. 

No  suitable  provision  has  yet  been  made  for  non-resident  lecturers  on 
academic  topics.  For  several  years  a  few  members  of  the  faculty  have, 
at  their  own  charge,  arranged  for  a  number  of  lectures  each  year  by 
inviting  friends  who  would  consent  to  come  for  a  fee  which  would  cover 
their  expenses.  This  condition  is  not  creditable  to  the  University,  for 
it  should  not  allow  a  member  of  the  faculty  to  bear  such  an  expense, 
and  it  should  not  take  the  lecturer's  services  without  fair  compensation. 

A  fund  yielding  one  thousand  dollars  a  year  would  suffice  to  pay 
travelling  expenses  and  a  reasonable  fee  to  at  least  a  dozen  lecturers 


8  WESLKYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

each  3'ear.  Each  year  there  could  readily  be  brought  to  Wesleyau  a 
number  of  famous  scholars,  from  abroad  and  from  distant  parts  of  the 
country,  who  are  filling  lecture  engagements  in  New  York  and  Boston, 
New  Haven  and  Hartford.  Now  these  opportunities  pass  unused  for 
the  lack  of  a  small  fund  for  the  payment  of  non-resident  lecturers. 

Revision  of  the  By-Laws. — At  the  annual  meeting  in  June,  the 
board  of  trustees  adopted  a  revised  set  of  by-laws  and  regulations  for 
the  election  of  trustees  by  the  alumni.  The  most  important  changes 
relate  to  the  executive  committee  and  the  committee  on  honorary 
degrees.  Hereafter  the  executive  committee  will  hold  stated  meetings 
in  Middletown  in  addition  to  the  meetings  of  the  board. 

Neff  Collection. — The  most  important  addition  to  the  museum  in 
recent  years  is  the  collection  of  nearly  12,000  specimens  bequeathed  by 
the  late  Charles  H.  Neff  of  Portland,  Connecticut.  The  collection  is 
especially  rich  in  articles  illustrating  the  archaeology,  history,  and 
natural  historj-  of  Connecticut. 

Foss  House. — The  work  of  rebuilding  the  burned  portion  of  the  Foss 
House,  and  of  making  some  extensions  and  improvements,  is  going 
rapidly  forward,  and  will  be  completed  by  the  end  of  December.  The 
loss  from  the  fire  was  practically  covered  by  insurance. 

Alumni  Record. — The  new  edition  of  the  Alumni  Record,  published 
last  June,  has  received  unstinted  praise  from  those  who  have  examined 
it.  These  compliments  are  justly  bestowed  upon  Professor  Nicolson  for 
the  months  of  tedious  and  painstaking  work  which  he  put  into  the 
preparation  of  this  interesting  and  valuable  record.  While  the  volume 
has  had  a  good  sale,  there  are  many  alumni  who  have  not  yet  subscribed 
for  this  book  which  has  been  prepared  for  their  use.  Orders  should  be 
addressed  to  Professor  Nicolson. 

Absences  on  Sabbatical  Leave. — Professors  Rice  and  Armstrong 
have  received  leave  of  absence  for  the  present  year  and  will  go  to 
Europe  early  in  January.  Professor  Rice  is  spending  the  autumn 
months  in  pursuing  researches  in  Boston  and  Washington,  while 
Professor  Armstrong  is  remaining  at  the  University  in  order  to  give  the 
introductory  course  in  logic. 

Professor  Van  Vleck. — Every  alumnus  of  the  University  will  be 
glad  to  learn  that  the  health  of  Professor  \"an  \'leck,  which  was  poor 
during  the  spring  and  summer,  has  been  much  better  this  autumn. 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  9 

Hubbard  Bequest. — By  the  will  of  the  late  Walter  Hubbard  of 
Meriden,  a  native  of  Middletown,  the  University  will  receive  forty 
thousand  dollars  for  the  endowment  of  scholarships.  This  is  the  largest 
gift  yet  received  by  the  University  for  this  purpose,  and  will  increase 
the  scholarship  endowment  funds  to  over  $110,000. 


COMMUNICATION 

In  the  special  Bulletin  for  June,  191 1  (No.  49),  page  18,  lines  3-1 1, 
some  general  statements  were  made  regarding  the  pecuniary  support 
which  Professor  Atwater  received  from  various  sources  in  aid  of  his 
famous  researches  in  nutrition,  and  regarding  the  disposition  which 
was  made  of  his  elaborate  apparatus  when  these  researches  here  came 
to  an  end  after  his  death. 

I  have  recently  had  some  conference  with  reference  to  these  matters 
with  Mr.  R.  D.  Milner,  formerly  connected  with  the  investigations 
named,  and  now  resident  in  Washington,  D.  C,  and  am  convinced  that 
the  following  points,  partly  supplementary  and  partly  by  way  of  cor- 
rection, ought  to  be  made  clear  in  view  of  the  various  interests  involved. 

1.  That  the  investigations  which  were  made  with  funds  from  the 
United  States  Government,  and  those  which  were  made  at  the  expense 
of  the  Carnegie  Institution  were  kept  separate  and  distinct,  though 
carried  out  with  the  same  equipment,  by  the  same  individuals,  and  in 
the  same  laboratory.  The  work  was  not  cooperative,  as  between  the 
Government  and  the  Carnegie  Institution. 

2.  Until  the  very  end  of  the  work  here,  the  Government  contributed 
the  larger  amounts  for  its  support. 

3.  At  the  end  of  the  work,  after  the  death  of  Professor  Atwater,  all 
apparatus  purchased  or  constructed  at  Government  expense  was  taken 
to  Washington  for  further  use  there.  This  was  far  the  larger  portion 
of  the  total  equipment. 

I  am  greatly  indebted  to  Mr.  Milner  for  calling  my  attention  to  these 
matters,  and  regret  that  the  original  form  of  statement  was  inexact. 

W.  P.  Bradley.

ful services  of  the  President  of  the  University  and  the  special  committee 
on  endowment  during  this  past  year,  this  board  desires  to  express  its 
appreciation  of  their  services." 

Honorable  Frank  Bentley  Weeks,  was  elected  trustee  to  fill  the 
vacancy  caused  by  the  resignation  of  D.  W.  Northrop,  term  to  expire 
October  i,  1911.  The  following  were  then  elected  trustees  for  a  period

J.  E.  Andrus,  Charles  Gibson,  C.  D.  Burdick,  W.  I.  Haven,  A.  E. 
Sutherland,  F.  B.  Weeks.  Amos  Jay  Givens,  M.  D.,  of  Stamford, 
Connectici:t,  was  elected  trustee  in  place  of  S.  W.  Bowne,  deceased, 
for  the  unexpired  term  ending  October  i,  191 2. 

The  President  of  the  University  was  authorized  to  confer  the  degree 
of  Doctor  of  Laws  upon  Honorable  Watson  Carvosso  Squire,  '59. 

Certain  regulations  adopted  by  the  faculty,  to  go  into  force  next  year, 
were  approved. 

The  following  memorial  on  the  death  of  the  late  President  of  the 
board,  H.  C.  M.  Ingraham,  was  unanimously  adopted  and  ordered  to  be 
inscribed  upon  the  records  and  a  copy  sent  to  Mrs.  Ingraham: 

Henry  Cruise  Murphy  Ingraham  came  of  a  worthy  ancestry  and  was 
born  into  a  family  of  brothers  and  sisters  who  inherited  the  same 
general  traits  and  were  able,  though  perhaps  unwittingly,  to  assist  in 
forming  his  character.  As  his  brothers  had  come  to  Wesleyan  Univer- 
sity, he  followed  them,  and  was  graduated  in  the  class  of  1864. 

There  were  no  irregularities  in  his  youth  to  be  remembered  in  sorrow, 
or  disabilities  to  render  his  career  uncertain  or  feeble.  But  the  strong 
forces  of  his  nature  were  so  controlled  and  regulated  that,  in  every 
good  word  and  work,  his  entire  strength  was  available. 

While  in  college,  without  seeking  it,  he  acquired  great  influence. 
His  fellow  students — especially  those  of  his  own  class — found  in  him  an 
unconscious  leader  and  pattern.  They  testified  to  this  before  as  well  as 
after  his  lamented  decease.  The  faculty  also  consulted  him  on  various 
questions,  usually  beyond  the  interest  or  wisdom  of  undergraduates. 

Two  of  his  brothers  having  chosen  the  law  as  their  life-work,  having 
similar  tastes,  he  followed  them  into  the  same  onerous,  but  ever 
interesting  profession. 

His  mental  faculties  and  inclinations  coalescing,  he  succeeded  from  the 
beginning;  and  his  moral  qualities  inspiring  confidence  in  all  with 
whom  he  mingled,  he  became  noted  as  a  safe  guide,  a  seciilar  confessor 
and  representative. 

He  might  have  been  this  without  the  almost  invisible  qualities  which 
make  a  gentleman;    but  this  he  was  to  perfection.     And  he  might  have 


12  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

been  this  without  becoming  a  spiritual  Christian,  but  this  he  was,  and 
they  that  knew  him  best  discerned  it,  while  strangers  inferred  it  with- 
out the  aid  of  conventional  signs. 

His  love  for  his  Alma  Mater  was  unchangeable,  except  to  increase 
with  years.  His  services  as  Trustee,  Treasurer,  and  President  were 
invaluable.  Self-sacrifice  was  shown  in  its  highest  form,  when  for 
years,  in  which  he  was  slowly  pushed  by  nature  to  the  still  dwelling,  he 
gathered  all  his  strength  to  fulfil  his  duties  as  President  of  the  Board  of 
Trustees. 

As  man,  gentleman,  husband,  father.  Christian,  friend,  none  could 
suggest  improvement;  and  we,  as  Trustees,  can  express  our  feelings 
onlv  in  the  familiar  exclamation:  Hail  and  Farewell  !

The  total  receipts  from  investments  during  the  year  were  $83,898.54. 
The  income  of  the  general  investments  has  been  divided  at  the  rate  of 
5. 1 14   per  cent  among  the  funds  and   balances  to  which  these  invest- 
ments belong,  no  interest  being  allowed  to  the  profit  and  loss  account

being  allowed  on  the  annuity  funds.     The  income  remaining  after  the 
above   division  ($13.04)  has  been  added  to  the  income  of   the  general 
endowment  funds.     By  vote  of  the  board  of  trustees,  the  expenditures 
from  any  library,  scholarship,  or  prize  fund,  in  any  one  year,  shall  not 
exceed  \%  per  cent  of  the  principal  of  said  fund.     Any  income  above 
4j^  per  cent  is  added  to  the  principal  of  the  fund. 

During  the  year  payments  of  $3,171.48  increased  the  alumni  fund  from 
$88,637.26  to  $91,808.74.     Of  the  new  pajnnents  $2,874.50  was  credited  to

1 8  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

ALUMNI  RECORD 

The  new  Alumni  Record,  edited  by  Professor  Nicolson,  appeared  last 
June.  This  Record  contrasts  favorably  with  that  of  any  other  institu- 
tion, particularly  in  the  fulness  of  the  personal  records,  which,  in  this 
volume,  state  the  fraternity  relations  and  give  a  list  of  the  children  of 
the  alumni.  It  lacks  the  statistical  information  found  in  the  former 
edition,  but  this  will  appear  later  in  the  form  of  special  articles.  In  the 
mass  of  commendatory  comment  which  has  been  received  from  alumni 
and  others,  especial  emphasis  is  laid  upon  the  completeness  of  the  book 
and  the  painstaking  care  with  which  it  has  been  edited.  Some  of  these 
comments  may  be  quoted  in  part:  "It  is  vastly  superior  to  its  prede- 
cessors and  is  a  model  of  condensation."  "I  am  well  pleased  with  its 
easy  reference  to  names."  "The  Record  is  one  of  the  greatest  goads 
to  awaken  any  of  us  who  may  incline  to  go  to  sleep  professionally." 
"I  consider  it  invaluable."  "I  feel  infinitely  more  than  repaid  for  its 
price." 

Of  the  2,800  living  alumni  of  Wesleyan,  only  about  700  have  as  yet 
sent  their  subscriptions  to  Professor  Nicolson.  The  book  is  deserving 
of  a  much  larger  subscription  list. 


ALUMNI  NOTES 
Washington  Alumni  Banquet. — Few  Wesleyan  alumni  do  not 
cherish  the  intention  of  visiting,  at  some  time,  the  national  capital.  A 
plan  has  been  launched  by  Mr.  G.  C.  Round,  '66,  president  of  the 
Alumni  Association,  to  induce  a  large  number  of  these  to  assemble  in 
Washington  on  Saturday,  March  2,  1912,  and  make  this  year's  banquet 
of  the  Wesleyan  Alumni  Association  of  Washington  a  gathering  of  the 
alunmi,  not  only  of  Washington  and  vicinity,  but  of  the  whole  country. 
He  hopes  to  arrange  for  those  present  a  meeting  with  President  Taft. 
This,  combined  with  the  other  attractions  of  the  place,  and  the  prospect 
of  meeting  a  large  number  of  Wesleyan  alumni,  should  ensure  a  large 
attendance.  Further  information  may  be  secured  from  the  chairman 
of  the  committee  of  arrangements,  Mr.  O.  S.  Smith,  '87,  1631  Sixteenth 
Street,  N.  W.,  Washington,  or  from  Mr.  G.  C.  Round,  Manassas, 
Virginia. 

Class  of  1862. — The  class  of  1862  has  unanimously  determined  to 
inaugurate  the  custom  of  holding  a  class  breakfast  once  in  fifty  years, 
and  will  hold  its  first  on  Tuesday  morning  of  next  commencement  week. 
The  officers  of  the  class  are  J.  E.  Andrus,  president,  and  G.  C.  Round, 
Manassas,  Virginia,  secretary. 


WESLKYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  1 9 

ALUMNI  COUNCIL 

It  was  amiounced  in  the  June  Bulletin  that  an  alumni  committee  had 
been  appointed  to  consider  plans  for  organizing  the  alumni  of  Wesleyan 
in  a  manner  similar  to  that  in  use  at  Princeton.  The  committee, 
established  bj-  the  board  of  trustees,  reported  to  the  June  meeting  of 
the  Alumni  Association,  and,  with  slight  changes,  the  constitution  of 
the  Princeton  graduate  council  was  adopted.  It  is  planned  to  organize 
Wesleyan  alumni  all  over  the  country  into  a  compact  working  body, 
and  every  alumnus  will  be  expected  actively  to  identify  himself  with 
the  association.  With  the  siipport  given  by  the  board  of  trustees,  the 
finance  committee  will  find  it  possible  to  finance  the  organization  until 
it  is  able  to  support  itself. 

On  October  14,  at  the  Alpha  Delta  Phi  house,  the  council  held  its  first 
meeting,  at  which  the  organization  was  practically  completed.  A 
permanent  secretary  has  not  yet  been  chosen,  but  in  the  meantime  the 
work  of  the  council  will  be  carried  on  by  the  several  committees,  with 
the  assistance  of  the  temporary  secretary,  G.  I.  Bodine,  Jr.,  '06,  129  South 
Fourth  Street,  Philadelphia.  President  Shanklin,  who  was  present  as  a 
guest,  was  much  pleased  with  the  spirit  of  earnestness  and  enthusiasm 
which  characterized  this  first  meeting. 

As  an  experiment  in  extending  aid  to  undergraduate  activities,  the 
temporary  secretary  of  the  council  will  cooperate  with  the  manager  of 
the  musical  clubs  in  the  arrangement  of  the  schedule  for  this  year. 
Correspondence  has  been  solicited  from  undergraduates,  alumni,  faculty, 
etc.,  relative  to  possible  or  desirable  improvements  in  any  matter  relat- 
ing to  the  University,  and  already  at  the  first  meeting  enough  communi- 
cations had  been  received  to  indicate  that  there  would  be  no  dearth  of 
problems.  It  is  planned  to  institute  a  central  bureau  of  information 
concerning  activities  of  all  the  alumni  associations.  It  is  hoped  that 
each  association,  before  deciding  on  a  date  for  a  smoker  or  a  banquet, 
will  communicate  with  the  temporary  secretary,  to  find  out  whether 
the  proposed  date  will  conflict  with  the  activities  of  any  other 
association. 

The  constitution  is  herewith  printed  in  fiill,  together  with  a  list  of  the 
members  of  the  council,  its  officers,  and  the  chairmen  of  its  committees.

DEPARTMENT  NOTES 

Latin.— In  addition  to  the  photographs  recently  purchased  abroad, 
several  old  prints  illustrating  interesting  stages  in  the  ruin  of  ancient 
classical  structures  have  been  placed  on  the  walls  of  the  Latin  class- 
room. 

Greek.— Course  IV  (history  of  Greek  literature)  has  been  made  a 
two-hour  course  for  the  year  and  may  be  elected  by  those  who  have  not 
studied  the  Greek  language.     The  course  is  designed  partly  to  meet 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  27 

the  needs  of  students  of  English  and  other  literatures  who  desire  an 
acquaintance  with  the  principal  and  most  influential  works  of  Greek 
literature. 

German. — The  German  Department  has  received  by  gift  several 
large  pictures  illustrating  German  life  and  literature.  These  have  been 
framed  and  hung  in  one  of  the  recitation  rooms  in  Fisk  Hall. 

Through  the  courtesy  of  the  R.  D.  Cortina  Company  of  New  York,  an 
Edison  phonograph  with  thirty  records  illustrating  the  Cortina  system 
of  instruction  in  German  has  been  installed  in  the  Modern  Language 
Seminary  in  Fisk  Hall.  The  apparatus  has  been  made  accessible  to  all 
advanced  classes  in  German,  who  have  thus  an  opportunity  of  observing 
the  use  of  the  phonograph  in  modern  language  study. 

ENGI.ISH  Literature.  — The  course  in  English  Literature  I  has 
been  materially  changed.  Instead  of  devoting  the  first  half-year  to  an 
■outline  of  the  history  of  the  literature  and  the  second  half-year  to  care- 
ful reading  of  two  or  three  masterpieces,  the  class  continues  the  study 
of  the  history  through  the  entire  year,  with  frequent  exercises  in  the 
reading  of  characteristic  specimens  of  the  literature.  Every  second  or 
third  exercise  is  given  to  these  illustrative  readings.  The  collateral 
reading  hitherto  required  in  this  course  has  been  dropped;  but  in  place 
of  it  the  student  is  required  to  write  each  semester  two  essays  upon 
some  important  subjects  drawn  from  English  literary  histor3\ 

English  Language. — Discontinued  for  a  period  of  j'ears,  Course 
VIII  (Arthurian  Romance)  is  again  offered  this  year.  The  work  in 
freshman  English  is  divided  between  Mr.  Gillet  and  Mr.  Sherburn. 

History. — Professor  Dutcher  has  prepared  a  pamphlet  of  Directions 
and  Suggestions  for  the  Writing  of  Essays  or  Theses  in  History  for  the 
use  of  the  advanced  classes  in  the  department.  The  publication  is  the 
result  of  ten  years  of  experience  in  supervising  the  writing  of  history 
essays. 

History  and  Economics. — Because  of  the  increased  registration  in 
these  departments,  it  was  found  necessary  in  September  to  engage  an 
instructor  to  assist  in  the  conduct  of  certain  classes,  though  it  was 
impossible,  at  such  a  late  date,  to  place  him  in  full  charge  of  any  class. 
The  instructor  is  Mr.  John  Hamilton  Blair,  Ph.  D.,  a  graduate  of  Cornell 
and  Harvard,  who  has  taught  in  Leland  Stanford,  Toledo,  and  Rochester 
universities.

Mathematics. — The  course  in  descriptive  geonietr}-  and  mechanical 
drawing,  which  has  been  given  since  1908  by  the  department  of  physics, 
is  given  this  year  under  the  direction  of  the  department  of  mathe- 
matics.    Doctor  Lamond  has  charge  of  the  course. 

Physics. — A  change  in  Course  I  for  the  current  year  consists  in  the 
introduction  of  a  small  amount  of  laboratory  practice  for  the  entire 
class.  About  once  a  fortnight  the  regular  meeting  of  the  class  will  be 
omitted,  a  two-hour  laboratory  period  being  substituted  in  its  place. 

Recent  purchases  include  a  spectroscope,  costing  about  $70,  for  the 
use  of  students,  made  by  Adam  Hilger  of  London. 

A  Fleming  cymometer  has  been  imported  from  the  Marconi  Wireless 
Telegraph  Company.  This  is  a  direct-reading  instrument  for  measur- 
ing frequencies,  wave-lengths,  and  other  constants  of  electric  waves. 
It  is  intended  for  use  both  in  instruction  and  experimentation. 

Chemistry. — A  few  minor  changes  have  been  made  in  the  courses 
this  year.  Course  XII  (organic  analysis),  formerly  given  b}-  Doctor 
Renshaw,  is  now  combined  with  Course  V  (advanced  quantitative 
analysis),  and  is  taught  by  Doctor  Heath.  Those  who  desire  this  work 
elect  the  latter  course  for  four  periods  a  week.  For  others,  it  is  one  of 
three  periods,  as  formerly.  The  laboratory  course  (XI)  in  organic 
chemistry  and  Course  VII  (physical  chemistry),  are  now  elective  for 
three  periods  a  week,  instead  of  two.  The  total  number  of  under- 
graduate periods  now  offered  in  the  department  amounts  to  thirtj-. 

Cryogenic  Laboratory. — During  the  second  semester  of  last  year 
further  progress  was  made  in  the  study  of  the  law  which  governs  the 
cooling  effect  produced  when  air  expands  through  a  nozzle  from  a  high 
pressure  to  a  low  one.  The  work  of  previous  3-ears  had  covered  a  range 
of  temperatvire  from  the  liquefying  point  of  air, — 191"  C,  upward  to  the 
ordinary  temperature.  To  this  has  now  been  added  the  range  from 
room  temperature  to  200  C.  The  problem  is  a  fundamental  one  in  air 
liquefiers  of  all  types  except  that  of  Claude. 

During  the  summer,  a  20-horse-power  electric  motor  from  the  General 
Electric  Company  has  been  installed  in  the  cryogenic  laboratory  in 
place  of  the  kerosene  engine  which  has  done  such  good  service  since 
the  installation  of  the  liquid  air  plant  in  1902.  Shafting  has  also  been 
run  through  the  partition  into  the  carpenter  shop,  so  that  the  same 
power  is  now  used  to  drive  the  buzz  saw,  plane,  and  drill,  with  which 
the  latter  is  equipped.  The  new  motor  is  powerful  enough  to  drive  this 
machinery  at  the  same  time  with  the  liquid  air  plant,  whenever  it  is 
desirable  to  do  so.

Geology. — On  account  of  leave  of  absence  granted  to  Professor  Rice, 
the  courses  in  geology  are  omitted  the  present  year,  except  Coiirse  I 
(physical  geography).  That  course  will  be  given  as  last  year,  by  Walter 
Ransom  Barrows,  A.  B.     It  will  come  in  the  second  half-year. 

Biology. — The  increasing  number  of  students  taking  practical  labor- 
atory work  has  made  it  necessary  to  change  the  plan  of  Courses  V,  VI, 
and  VII,  which  have  been  elected  this  year  by  nearly  twice  as  many 
students  as  the  laboratory  will  accommodate.  The  laboratory  periods 
have  been  extended  and  the  laboratory  is  open  for  work  nearly  all  the 
time.  Instructors  are  present  to  give  assistance,  however,  only  at 
certain  specified  periods.  In  the  conduct  of  the  course  in  hygiene,  which 
is  given  two  hours  a  week  for  the  first  half-year,  Doctor  Fauver  is  now 
associated  with  Professor  Conn. 


DEPARTMENT  OF  PHYSICAL   EDUCATION 

Doctor  Edgar  Fauver,  of  the  newly  established  department  of  physical 
education,  is  enlarging  the  scope  of  the  work  heretofore  done  by  Mr. 
Reiter  and  introducing  several  innovations. 

Physical  Examinations. — As  in  previous  years,  freshmen  and  all 
participants  in  athletics  are  required  to  undergo  a  physical  examination, 
but  in  the  future  emphasis  will  be  placed  upon  the  acquisition  of  informa- 
tion regarding  the  organic  condition  and  health  of  the  examinee  rather 
than  upon  a  multitude  of  measurements  and  strength  tests.  The 
examination  is  divided  into  four  parts: 

1.  A  brief  history,  designed  to  bring  out  the  main  facts  in  the  previous 
health  of  the  student.  This  will  call  attention  to  any  abnormal  ten- 
dencies and  will  assist  in  the  interpretation  of  certain  physical  signs 
brought  out  in  the  subsequent  examination. 

2.  The  recording  of  a  very  few  selected  measurements. 

3.  A  careful  examination  of  the  eyes  both  as  to  their  power  of  vision 
and  physical  condition,  ears,  nose,  throat,  teeth,  lungs,  heart,  and  skin. 
This  is  regarded  as  the  most  important  part  of  the  examination  and 
often  brings  to  light  certain  conditions  in  which  improvement  is 
necessary,  or  at  least  advisable.  The  information  thus  gained  is  used 
as  a  basis  of  advice  to  the  student. 

4.  General  inspection  to  detect  any  physical  deformities. 


30  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

Medical  Work.— The  director  keeps  certain  office  hours  for  consulta- 
tion with  students,  and  is  subject  to  call  in  case  of  necessity  at  any  time. 
Many  students  are  availing  themselves  of  this  opportunity  and  are 
receiving  advice  and  treatment  for  various  minor  surgical  conditions 
and  for  the  various  acute  diseases,  such  as  colds,  digestive  disturbances, 
tonsilitis,  etc.  The  department  does  not  expect  to  assume  responsibility 
in  any  case  for  the  graver  surgical  and  medical  conditions.  It  is  hoped 
and  believed,  however,  that  through  this  department  an  earlier  diagnosis 
of  serious  conditions  may  be  made  and  the  student  be  placed  more 
promptly  under  suitable  care. 

Gymnastics.— Work  in  the  gymnasium  is  required  of  freshmen  and 
sophomores  from  Thanksgiving  to  the  Easter  vacation.  The  work  will 
consist  of  marching  and  drills,  with  and  without  hand  apparatus, 
followed  by  squad  work  upon  fixed  apparatus  and  games.  In  the  drill 
work,  emphasis  will  be  placed  upon  a  few  exercises  carefully  chosen 
because  of  their  corrective  value  rather  than  upon  the  combination  of 
many  movements  which  have  little  or  no  such  value.  In  the  apparatus 
work  the  exercises  chosen  will  be  those  that  all  the  students  can 
execute. 

Athletics.— Dr.  Fauver  believes  that  athletics  have  a  large  and 
essential  place  in  a  system  of  physical  education,  and  will  make  every 
effort  to  render  it  possible  for  all  students  to  participate  in  them. 
While  wishing  to  further  'varsity  and  intercollegiate  athletics,  he  will 
devote  his  energy  chiefly  to  the  development  of  inter-class  and  inter- 
fraternity  contests.  If  the  plan  which  he  has  in  mind  can  be  worked 
out,  each  class  will  be  represented  by  teams  in  tennis,  basket-ball,  base- 
ball, track,  and  hand-ball,  and  each  fraternity  by  teams  in  tennis,  basket- 
ball, hand-ball,  and  baseball.  This  will  require  careful  planning  and 
apportionment  of  time  and  space  on  the  athletic  field  and  in  the 
gymnasium.  If  such  a  plan  can  be  carried  out,  nearly  600  places  in 
athletic  teams  will  be  filled  by  the  students,  and  every  student  will 
have  an  opportunity  to  take  part  in  athletic  contests. 

Improvements. — The  following  pieces  of  apparatus  have  been  added 
to  the  equipment  of  the  gymnasium:  One  standard  parallel  bar  which 
has  appliances  for  quickly  adjusting  its  height  and  width  to  the  needs 
of  the  student,  one  swinging  boom,  one  swing  up  vaulting  bar,  two 
climbing  ropes,  and  two  pairs  of  jump  stands,  all  so  arranged  that  they 
may  be  quickly  removed  from  the  floor,  leaving  it  free  for  games  and 
drills. 


WKSLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  3 1 

To  meet,  at  least  partially,  the  demand  of  the  students  for  increased 
locker  accommodation,  fifty  steel  lockers  have  been  added.  Ten  of 
these  have  been  placed  in  a  separate  dressing  room  and  reserved  for  the 
use  of  the  faculty. 

A  floor  is  to  be  laid  in  what  is  now  the  baseball  cage  and  the  room 
divided  by  a  temporary  partition  through  the  middle.  This  will 
provide  for  two  full-sized  squash  courts  and  four  hand-ball  courts.  The 
partition  will  be  removed  when  the  approach  of  the  baseball  season 
demands  it,  and  the  room  will  again  serve  as  a  baseball  cage. 


IMPROVEMENT  OF  SCHOLARSHIP 

Soon  after  the  Commencement  of  June,  1909,  a  committee  of  the 
faculty  was  appointed  to  consider  ways  and  means  of  improving  the 
scholarship  of  the  students  in  the  University.  The  deliberations  of  this 
committee  have  borne  fruit  in  a  series  of  regulations  adopted  by  the 
faculty  in  the  course  of  the  past  year,  and  incorporated  in  the  191 1 
edition  of  the  Regulations  of  Wesleyan  University.  The  most  important 
of  these  may  be  quoted  in  full: 

Voted,  that  a  grade  lower  than  fifth  be  assigned  to  the  worst  failures 
on  examination,  and  that  in  case  of  such  a  failure  no  further  examina- 
tion be  given,  but  that  the  student  be  required  to  take  the  course  over, 
or,  in  case  of  an  elective,  to  substitute  another  course. 

Voted,  as  an  additional  requirement  for  graduation  hereafter  that, 
beginning  with  the  class  of  1915,  all  students  must  make  sixty  per 
cent,  of  their  grades  above  four.  Also  that  members  of  the  classes  of 
1913  and  1914  must  make  fifty  per  cent,  of  their  grades  above  four  after 
the  beginning  of  next  year  (1911-12)  in  order  to  graduate. 

The  number  of  absences  and  unprepareds  allowed  each  student  has 
been  materially  restricted.  No  excuse  for  absence  from  college  exercises 
is  to  be  granted  to  a  student  until  his  allowance  of  absences  has  been 
used  up.  The  previous  allowance  has  been  reduced  one-third  and  after 
the  limit  has  been  reached  no  further  absence  or  deficiency  is  allowed. 
One-half  of  the  allowance  of  absences  in  each  course  may  be  used  up  in 
the  form  of  unprepareds  and  every  unprepared  put  in  thereafter  in  a 
given  course  is  counted  as  an  absence. 

Tennis  and  dramatics  have  been  added  to  the  list  of  organizations 
included  in  the  rule  forbidding  a  student  to  participate  in  more  than  two 
in  one  year  without  special  permission,  and  the  rule  will  apply  here- 
after to  managers  and  assistant  managers  as  well  as  to  players  or 
members. 


32  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

In  this  connection  may  be  mentioned  the  new  rule  that,  after  this 
year,  freshmen  may  not  represent  the  University  on  'varsity  teams  in 
the  first  semester  of  their  residence,  and  the  fact  that  the  requirements 
relating  to  chapel  attendance  have  been  remodeled  to  accord  with  the 
new  regulations  for  attendance  upon  classes. 


UNIVERSITY   NOTES 

Publications. — There  was  published  this  summer  a  special  number 
of  the  Bulletin  (No.  49),  entitled  A  Record  of  Scientific  Work,  iSji-igii. 
It  is  an  issue  of  seventy-one  pages,  containing  an  introduction,  history 
of  the  various  departments  of  science,  including  that  of  philosophy  (as 
included  by  Professor  J.  M.  Cattell  in  his  American  Men  of  Science), 
an  account  of  the  Middletown  Scientific  Association,  the  biographies 
and  publications  of  the  various  professors  and  instructors  in  science, 
and  the  obituaries  of  four  prominent  professors  in  Wesleyan  University. 
The  work  was  begun  by  Doctor  Turrentine,  but  upon  his  resignation  it 
passed  to  Professor  Camp,  who  carried  it  to  completion  with  the  assist- 
ance of  other  members  of  the  faculty. 

Buildings.— Important  repairs  were  made  this  summer  at  the  boiler 
house.  In  addition  to  general  repairs,  a  ventilator,  an  iilspirator,  and  a 
Fairbanks  scale  were  installed,  the  cost  of  the  whole  amounting  to  $600. 
The  President's  mansion,  the  house  now  occupied  by  the  Alpha  Chi 
Rho  fraternity,  and  the  woodwork  of  Fisk  Hall  and  Scott  Hall  w^ere 
repainted. 

The  Fire  at  the  Foss  House.— Early  on  the  morning  of  September 
I,  fire  was  discovered  in  the  Foss  House,  for  several  years  the  home  of 
the  Commons  Club.  Extensive  repairs  were  in  progress,  including 
new  baths,  redecoration,  and  renovation.  A  fire  had  been  burning  for 
some  days  in  an  open  grate,  in  order  to  dry  the  plaster.  Either  to  this 
cause  or  to  defective  wiring,  probably  the  latter,  the  origin  of  the  fire 
is  traced.  By  the  time  it  was  discovered  it  had  gained  such  headway 
that  the  main  portion  of  the  building  was  completely  gutted  and  the 
fire  had  made  some  progress  into  the  corridor  that  conmiunicates  with 
the  rear  portion.  Serious  damage  was  done  to  the  effects  of  the  students 
who  had  rooms  in  the  house.  It  seemed  at  first  as  if  the  building  must 
be  torn  down,  but  it  was  decided  to  repair  the  damage,  which  was  fully 
covered  bv  the  insurance,  and  further  to  increase  the  capacity  of  the 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  33 

house  by  adding  a  stor}-  to  the  rear  portion,  and  increasing  the  height 
and  floor  space  of  the  corridor  that  connects  the  front  and  rear  sections. 
It  is  expected  that  the  house  will  again  be  ready  for  occupancy  by 
January  i,  1912.  In  the  mean  time  the  Commons  Club  has  its  head- 
quarters at  27  Cross  Street. 

Fire  in  North  College. — On  the  night  of  November  17  a  fire 
started  in  a  couch  in  room  12,  North  College,  and  gained  such  headway 
before  it  was  discovered  that  it  completely  gutted  the  room  and  des- 
troyed the  furniture  and  decorations.  It  was  discovered  by  the  occupant 
of  another  room,  who  was  awakened  by  the  smoke,  while  the  three 
tenants  of  the  burning  room  slept  in  the  adjoining  bedchamber,  quite 
unaware  of  the  fire.  Before  the  arrival  of  the  city  fire  department  the 
flames  had  been  put  out  by  the  use  of  the  hand  extinguishers  which  are 
kept  in  the  building.  The  damage  to  the  building  amounted  to  about 
fifty  dollars  and,  owing  to  fireproof  construction,  was  confined  to  one 
room.  The  loss  to  the  occupants  amounted  to  about  one  hundred  and 
fift}'  dollars. 

Postal  Sub-Station. —Through  the  efforts  of  Eaton,  '12,  manager 
of  the  Wesleyan  Book  Store,  a  United  States  postal  sub-station,  to  be 
known  as  Middletown  Station  No.  i,  has  been  established.  The  new 
ofiice,  located  in  the  Book  Store,  has  registry  and  money-order  facilities. 
All  college  mail  not  otherwise  arranged  for  at  the  main  office  is 
delivered  at  this  station.  Each  fraternity  has  a  box,  and  for  those  who 
have  no  fraternity  address  private  boxes  are  provided  free  of  charge. 
Three  deliveries  per  day  reach  this  office,  the  distribution  being 
completed  about  8:10  A.  M.,  2:30,  and  7:45  p.  m.  Mail  is  no  longer 
delivered  through  any  of  the  dormitories. 

Debate. — The  work  of  the  Debating  Council  has  opened  most 
auspiciously.  The  trials  developed  an  unusual  amount  of  promising 
material,  which  made  the  choosing  of  the  teams  very  difficult.  The 
triangular  league,  composed  of  Amherst,  Williams,  and  Wesleyan,  will 
hold  a  debate  on  December  15  on  the  question:  "  Resolved,  that  United 
States  senators  should  be  elected  by  direct  vote  of  the  people."  The 
team  which  will  uphold  the  affirmative  against  Williams  at  Middletown 
will  consist  of  Coit,  '12,  and  W'allis,  '12,  with  Chanter,  '14,  as  alternate. 
Buck,  '12,  and  Cornish,  '14,  with  Murphy,  '13,  as  alternate  were  selected 
to  defend  the  negative  against  Amherst  at  Amherst. 

The  debate  between  the  sophomores  and  freshmen  will  be  on  the 
question    stated    above.     The  teams  have  been  chosen   as  follows:  for 


34  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

1914,  Abraham  and  Dulany,  with  Amy  as  alternate;  for  1915,  Willoughby 
and  White,  with  MacMulleu  as  alternate. 

For  the  spring  debate  it  is  hoped  a  third  institution  may  be  found  to 
form  with  Bowdoin  and  Wesleyan  a  second  triangular  league.  The 
officers  of  the  Debating  Council  for  the  current  year  are  Buck,  '12, 
president;  Coit,  '12,  manager;  Murph}%  '13,  assistant  manager. 

Laboratory  of  the  State  Board  of  Health. — From  October  i, 
the  beginning  of  the  state  fiscal  year,  the  amount  annualh-  appropriated 
to  the  laboratory  of  the  State  Board  of  Health  under  the  direction  of 
Professor  Conn  is  increased  to  |8,ooo.  In  the  last  two  years  19,000 
specimens  have  been  examined  in  this  laboratory.  This  has  resulted 
in  the  diagnosis  of  tuberculosis,  typhoid  fever,  diphtheria,  malaria, 
gonorrhoea,  spinal  meningitis,  anthrax,  and  trichinosis.  Some  7,000 
specimens  of  water  and  milk  have  been  analyzed.  The  health  officers 
of  the  state  have  been  using  the  laboratorj'  extensively'  to  prevent  the 
distribution  of  diphtheria  in  the  schools,  and  the  State  Board  of  Health 
has  recently  authorized  it  to  make  plans  for  undertaking  the  diagnosis 
of  glanders  in  horses. 

Professor  Conn  has  been  made  a  member  of  a  commission  of  milk 
standards,  composed  of  persons  of  national  reputation  in  connection 
with  milk  problems,  and  appointed  to  set  the  standards  for  market 
milk.  The  commission  has  been  established  by  a  New  York  milk  com- 
mittee but  it  is  expected  that  its  work  will  furnish  a  basis  for  milk 
standards  throughout  the  country.  Doctor  Charles  Edward  North,  '93, 
is  secretary  of  the  commission. 

German  Book  Club. — The  German  book  club,  which  was  founded 
last  year  among  the  faculty  of  the  LTniversity  and  their  friends,  is 
entering  on  its  second  year  with  a  somewhat  increased  membership. 
During  the  past  year  the  club  purchased  and  circulated  among  its 
members  twenty-four  volumes  of  contemporary  German  literature, 
including  drama,  fiction,  and  poetry.  By  the  statutes  of  the  club,  which 
enjoys  a  small  subvention  from  the  German  department,  these  books 
afterwards  became  the  property  of  the  University  library. 

Phi  Bet.a.  Kappa. — At  a  meeting  of  the  society  held  on  November 
21,  the  following  members  of  191 2  were  elected  to  membership:  Faith 
Bonfoey  and  Hester  Wilson  Reynolds  of  Middletown;  George  Landon 
Buck,  of  New  London;  Carl  Scott  Coit,  of  Lawrence,  New  York;  Robert 
Victor  Story  of  Taunton,  Massachusetts;  Edgar  Watters  Wallis  of 
Ashley,  Pennsylvania.

FACULTY  NOTES 

President  Shanklin. — The  President  has  been  devoting  his  time 
very  largely  to  the  endowment  campaign.  He  has,  however,  found 
opportunity  to  visit  most  of  the  alunmi  associations  this  year  and 
several  preparatory  schools  as  well. 

Professor  Rice. — Professor  Rice  has  been  granted  leave  of  absence 
for  the  present  year,  and  is  expecting  to  go  to  Europe  in  January  and 
remain  about  six  months.  He  is  at  present  temporarily  residing  in 
Washington,  and  is  engaged  chiefly  in  editorial  work  on  bulletins  of  the 
State  Geological  and  Natural  History  Survey.  Two  bulletins  are  now 
passing  through  the  press.  One,  by  Professor  Charles  R.  Eastman  of 
the  University  of  Pittsburgh,  is  on  the  Triassic  Fishes  of  Connecticut; 
the  other,  by  Professor  Wesley  R.  Coe  of  Yale  University,  is  on  the 
Echinoderms  of  Connecticut.  A  third  bulletin  on  the  Birds  of  Connec- 
ticut, by  Mr.  John  H.  Sage  and  Dr.  Louis  B.  Bishop,  assisted  by  Mr. 
Walter  P.  Bliss,  is  nearly  ready  for  the  press.  Several  other  bulletins 
have  been  submitted  for  editorial  revision,  and  will  be  ready  for  piibli- 
cation  at  an  early  date. 

Professor  Heidel. — Professor  Heidel  has  been  engaged  to  edit  the 
works  of  Hippocrates  for  the  Loeb  Classical  Library,  to  be  published 
by  Heinemann  in  London  and  the  Macmillan  Company  in  New  York. 
Mr.  James  Loeb,  formerly  of  the  banking  firm  of  Kuhn,  Loeb  &  Co., 
and  an  enthusiastic  lover  of  the  ancient  classics,  has  arranged  for  this 
publication  from  a  desire  to  revive  an  interest  in  classical  literature. 
The  library,  edited  by  an  international  board  of  eminent  classical 
scholars,  will  range  from  the  time  of  Homer  to  the  fall  of  Constanti- 
nople, and  will  present  a  comprehensive  and  uniform  series  of  classical 
texts  with  translations  of  the  highest  attainable  quality. 

Professor  Fife. — Professor  Fife  returned  late  in  September  from 
abroad,  having  been  absent  on  leave  during  the  latter  half  of  the  past 
year.  The  greater  part  of  his  time  abroad  was  spent  in  Germany 
and  Austria,  in  the  study  of  recent  changes  in  educational  conditions 
and  of  contemporary  movements  in  German  literature  and  culture. 

Inaugurations.  —  At  the  recent  inaugurations  of  New  England 
college  presidents  Wesleyan  University  was  represented  as  follows:  At 
the  inauguration  of  President  Guy  Potter  Benton  of  the  University  of 
Vermont  on  October  6  by  President  Shanklin;  at  that  of  President 
Ellen  Fitz  Pendleton  of  Wellesley  College  on  October  19  by  President 


36  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

Shanklin  and  Professor  Bradley;  at  that  of  President  Lemuel  Herbert 
Murlin  of  Boston  University  on  October  20  by  President  Shanklin  and 
Professor  Rice.  At  the  first  of  these  occasions  President  Shanklin 
represented  the  colleges  and  universities  of  New  England,  and  was 
honored  by  the  University  of  Vermont  with  the  degree  of  Doctor  of 
Laws.  He  was  also  one  of  the  speakers  at  the  dinner  given  in  connec- 
tion with  the  inauguration  of  President  Murlin. 

Meetings  Attended. — A  report  of  important  meetings  attended  by 
members  of  the  faculty  will  appear  in  the  May  Bulletin. 


YOUNG  MEN'S  CHRISTIAN  ASSOCIATION 

To  fill  the  vacancy  caused  by  the  resignation  of  Chester  Miller 
Knight,  Floyd  Emerson  Logee  has  been  appointed  general  secretary. 
Mr.  Logee  received  the  degree  of  A.  B.  from  Western  Reserve  Univer- 
sitj'  in  191 1. 

His  plans  for  the  year  include  close  connection  and  cooperation  with 
the  churches  of  Middletown,  active  social  service,  especiall}-  in  boys' 
clubs,  and  frequent  social  occasions  for  the  whole  student  body.  One 
of  these,  the  annual  reception  to  the  entering  class,  was  held  in  the 
Phi  Nu  Theta  House  on  October  3.  To  secure  increased  efficiency,  the 
Association  has  allied  itself  more  closely  with  the  International  Com- 
mittee. The  expense  connected  with  the  year's  work  has  been  carefully 
estimated  and  a  budget  of  between  $300  and  $400  will  be  required. 

Owing  to  the  press  of  other  things  during  the  opening  weeks,  the 
classes  in  Bible  study  were  not  organized  until  the  beginning  of 
November.  The  plan  for  this  year's  study  arranges  the  students  more 
strictly  by  college  classes  than  has  been  customary  the  past  few  years. 
Each  man  outside  the  freshman  class  has  the  choice  of  enrolling  him- 
self in  a  group  consisting  entirely  of  members  of  his  own  class  or  in  a 
group  composed  of  men  from  the  three  upper  classes.  The  arrange- 
ment is. as  follows: 

FOR   SENIORS 

1.  "  The  Social  Teachings  of  Jesus."     Leader — Professor  Camp. 

2.  "The  Will  of  God."     Leader— Mr.  Logee. 

FOR   JUNIORS 

3.  "The  Earlier  Prophets."     Leader — Professor  Hewitt. 

4.  "The  Will  of  God."     Leader— Mr.  Logee. 


WESI.EYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  37 

FOR   SOPHOMORES 

5.  "  New  Studies  in  Acts."     Leader — Professor  Cady. 

6.  "The  Will  of  God."     Leader— Mr.  Logee. 

FOR  frkshmp;n 

7.  "Studies  in  the  Life  of  Christ."     Leaders — Frost,  '11;  Hanna, 

'12;  Buck,  '12;  Wallis,  '12;  Crane, '13. 

Preliminary  to  these  courses,  particularly  that  in  the  life  of  Christ, 
Professor  Butcher  has  been  giving  a  series  of  eight  lectures  on  the 
•Histor}^  of  the  Old  Testament  and  its  Times.  These  have  been  held  at 
Sunday  noon  in  the  First  Methodist  Church  and  have  been  largely 
attended  by  men  of  all  classes.  In  the  second  semester  classes  in 
mission  study  will  begin.  These  will  consider  the  problems  of  our  own 
country  relative  to  the  immigrant  and  the  city,  as  well  as  conditions  in 
non-Christian  lands. 

On  October  21  and  22,  the  association,  in  conjunction  with  Berkeley 
Divinity  School,  entertained  the  Ninth  Annual  Connecticut  Valley 
Student  Missionary  Conference.  Delegates  to  the  number  of  166  were 
present  from  Amherst,  Dartmouth,  Hartford  School  of  Missions,  Hart- 
ford Theological  Seminary,  Mount  Hernion  Seminar}',  Mount  Holyoke, 
Massachusetts  Agricultural  College,  Northfield  Seminary,  Smith,  Spring- 
field Training  School,  Williams,  and  Yale,  in  addition  to  delegates  from 
Wesleyan  and  Berkeley.  On  the  21st,  the  delegates  were  tendered  a 
reception  at  the  Phi  Nu  Theta  House  in  the  afternoon,  and  a  dinner  in 
the  gymnasium  in  the  evening.  The  principal  speakers  of  the  Con- 
ference were  Reverend  D.  Brewer  Eddy,  Doctor  W.  L.  Ferguson,  Miss 
Anna  Brown,  Mr.  John  Magee,  Doctor  Tom  Jays,  Doctor  Edward  H. 
Hiime,  and  Professor  Harlan  P.  Beach  of  Yale.  On  the  morning  of 
vSunday,  October  22d,  speakers  from  the  conference  filled  the  pulpits  of 
several  of  the  local  churches. 


UNDERGRADUATE    NOTES 
President  of  the  College  Body. — The  President  of  the  College 
Body  for  the  present  year  is  John    Baker   Hanna,   '12,  of    Cambridge, 
New  York. 

Reception  to  Doctor  Fauver. — A  cordial  welcome  was  extended 
by  the  student  body  to  the  professor  of  physical  ediication  at  a  reception 
held  in  his  honor  at  the  Delta  Kappa  Epsilon  chapter  house  on  October 
12.  Professor  Nicolson,  after  a  brief  sketch  of  the  athletic  history  of 
Wesleyan  for  the  last  twenty  years,  welcomed   Doctor  Fauver  in  the 


38  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

name  of  the  faculty.  President  Hanna  of  the  college  body  proffered 
the  greetings  of  the  undergraduates.  Doctor  Fauver  was  called  upon 
to  speak  and  gave  an  outline  of  his  plans  for  the  development  of  his 
department. 

Classicai,  CIvUB. — The  club  meets  monthly  at  the  house  of  a  member 
of  the  faculty  or  at  a  fraternity  house,  for  the  discussion  of  some  topic 
connected  with  classical  studies,  and  for  a  social  hour.  The  officers  are 
hereafter  to  be  elected  for  a  year  instead  of  semi-annually  as  heretofore. 
For  this  year  they  are  E.  S.  Clark,  '13,  president;  K.  H.  Jones,  '14,  vice- 
president;   E.  K.  French,  '13,  secretary  and  treasurer. 

Dei'TSCher  Verein. — Through  the  gifts  of  various  friends  and  b}- 
purchase  the  rooms  of  the  Deutscher  Verein  in  East  Hall  have  been 
attractively  fitted  up  with  furniture  and  with  pictures  representing 
German  life  and  culture.  In  addition  to  their  use  for  the  regular  semi- 
monthly meetings  of  the  Verein,  a  regular  German  reading  room  is  to 
be  maintained  for  the  use  of  the  members,  and  it  is  hoped  that  a  small 
library  relating  to  German  school  and  university  life  may  eventually  be 
collected.  The  greatest  present  need  of  the  Verein  is  a  small  reflecto- 
scope  for  illustrating  the  various  talks  which  are  given  before  the 
Verein  on  German  life  and  customs. 

The  officers  for  the  present  semester  are  A.  F.  Hans,  '12,  president; 
A.  H.  Van  Voris,  '12,  vice-president;  R.  W.  Eaton,  '12,  secretary  and 
treasurer. 

Wesleyan  Bookstore. — The  Wesleyan  Bookstore,  started  by  its 
present  manager  three  years  ago,  now  handles  ten  thousand  books  a 
3-ear  and  other  student  supplies  of  every  kind.  In  addition  to  the  new 
post-office,  Mr.  Eaton  carries  on  a  circulating  librar}-  containing  all  the 
latest  novels.  Six  students  are  regularly  employed  as  clerks  and  one  as 
bookkeeper.  The  store  also  works  in  conjvinction  with  the  so-called 
Junior  Committee  by  employing  as  agents  for  posters,  banners,  maga- 
zines, etc.,  various  men  selected  by  the  committee. 

Student  Publications. — The  Wesleyan  Literary  Monthly  appears 
with  a  new  cover  and  different  paper.  Important  changes  have  been 
made  in  the  advertising,  with  the  intention  of  increasing  its  value 
to  the  advertisers. 

M.^LE  Quartette. — A  quartette  consisting  of  Monsell,  '14,  first 
tenor;  Anderson,  '12,  second  tenor;  Bacon,  '13,  first  bass;  and  Thrasher, 
'12,  second  bass,  has  been  organized  to  furnish  special  nuisic  at  vespers 
each  Sunda}-.

$766,030  SUBSCRIBED  $233,970  TO  BE  RAISED 

These  figures  measure  not  only  our  achievement  but  our 
remaining  task.  $233,970  must  be  secured  bj'  Commencement 
Da3%  June  19.  Many  are  at  work  to  obtain  it.  Trustees, 
alunuii,  undergraduates,  citizens  of  Middletown  and  of  the 
state  outside  of  Middletown,  and  friends  of  Wesley  an  every- 
where are  themselves  giving  and  are  working  zealously  to 
secure  subscriptions.  The  confidence  of  those  who  have  sub- 
scribed is  shown  by  the  fact  that  cash  payments  to  the  new 
endowment  amount  to  $172,566. 

Since  the  subscriptions  must  all  be  secured  by  June  ig,  if 
you  have  not  already  subscribed  will  you  not  immediately  do 
so  ?  If  you  have  made  a  subscription  and  are  able  to  increase 
the  amount,  will  you  not  do  so  at  once?  A  subscription  blank 
for  your  use  will  be  found  on  page  48.

4  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

Commencement. — The  alumni  of  Wesleyan  are  looking  forward  con- 
fidently to  the  completion  of  the  million  dollar  endowment  fund  before 
the  approaching  Commencement.  Everyone  who  has  contributed  will 
be  in  Middletown  at  that  date  to  celebrate  this  epoch-making  achieve- 
ment in  the  history  of  the  University.  Those  who  have  not  already 
subscribed  will  do  so  at  once  and  join  in  the  enthusiastic  alumni  reunion 
during  Commencement  week.  The  class  of  1862  will  celebrate  its 
fiftieth  anniversary  and  proposes  to  set  the  pace  for  the  other  class 
reunions.  The  names  of  the  men  of  '67,  '72,  '77,  '82,  '87,  '92,  '97,  '02, 
and  '07  are  full  guarantee  that  each  of  these  class  reunions  will  be  an 
event  worth  attending. 

Undergraduate  Subscriptions  to  the  Endowment  Fund. — On 
Wednesdaj',  April  24,  the  undergraduates  in  a  meeting  of  the  college 
bod)^  resolved  to  raise  ten  thousand  dollars  toward  the  million  dollar 
endowment  fund,  and  appointed  a  committee  to  canvass  for  subscrip- 
tions. To  date,  the  sum  of  $9,100  has  been  pledged.  The  interest  of 
the  undergraduates  in  the  completion  of  the  fund,  and  their  eagerness 
to  have  a  share  in  it,  are  most  happy  omens. 

Town  and  Gown. — Not  since  the  town  and  people  of  Middletown  in 
1830  placed  at  the  disposal  of  Reverend  Laban  Clark  and  his  committee 
property  valued  at  $40,000  for  the  foundation  of  Wesleyan  University  in 
Middletown  have  the  good  citizens  of  Middletown  shown  such  a  lively 
and  substantial  interest  in  the  welfare  and  growth  of  the  Universit3^ 
The  pledges  of  the  townspeople  toward  the  million  dollars  now 
amount  to  $50,450. 

Never  were  the  relations  between  town  and  gown  more  cordial  or  more 
mutually  helpful.  The  business  men  of  the  town  and  the  authorities  of 
the  Universit)-  realize  that  the  prosperity  and  good  fortune  of  Middle- 
town  and  of  \Vesle3-an  University  are  inseparably  associated.  The 
enthusiastic  participation  of  the  townspeople  in  the  exercises  connected 
with  the  installation  of  President  Shanklin  and,  just  now,  in  the  com- 
pletion of  the  million  dollar  endowment  fund  are  convincing  evidences 
of  their  generous  goodwill  toward  "the  college  on  the  hill"  and  of 
their  belief  in  its  high  character  and  usefulness. 

New  Students. — It  is  hoped  that  the  class  of  1916  will  enter,  in 
September,  150  strong.  Throughout  its  existence  Wesleyan  has  drawn 
almost  all  her  students  from  the  nine  or  ten  northeastern  states  of  the 
United  States,  and  from  them  must  obviously  come  the  largest  propor- 
tion of  new  students.     There  are  reasons  why  Wesle3-an  should  appeal 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  5 

to  a  wider  constituency,  and  so  derive  a  growing  number  of  students 
from  other  sections,  such  as  the  middle  west. 

In  desiring  increased  numbers,  Wesleyan  seeks  only  such  students 
as  can  substantially  comply  with  the  requirements  for  admission.  It  is 
unwise  both  for  the  individual  and  for  the  University  that  a  student 
should  be  admitted  unless  he  is  adequately  prepared  and  willing  to  do 
college  work  of  the  standard  required  by  the  regulations  of  the  Univer- 
sity. Wesleyan  bespeaks  the  assistance  of  its  alumni  and  friends  in 
securing  larger  entering  classes,  but  especially  in  securing  students  of 
the  best  type. 

Non-Fraternity  Men. — Wesleyan  has  been  known  as  a  college  in 
which  the  fraternities  dominate  the  undergraduate  life.  Although 
within  the  past  year  an  eighth  fraternity  has  established  itself,  and  the 
Commons  Club  has  adopted  new  regulations  which  tend  to  remove  its 
former  non-fraternity  character,  the  non-fraternity  group  at  Wesleyan 
was  never  made  up  of  men  of  better  standing  both  in  scholarship  and  in 
undergraduate  activities,  and  in  numbers  they  surpass  any  of  the  other 
nine  groups.  A  prospective  student  need  not  hesitate  to  come  to 
Wesleyan  as  a  non-fraternity  man,  for  he  will  find  plenty  of  excellent, 
congenial  men  in  the  same  category  with  himself. 

Expert  Recognition  of  Wesleyan's  High  Standing.  —  The 
United  States  Bureau  of  Education  has  recently  employed  Kendrick  C. 
Babcock,  former  president  of  the  University  of  Arizona,  as  an  expert  to 
study  the  relative  ranking  of  American  colleges  and  universities  upon 
the  basis  of  the  thoroughness  of  their  preparation  of  students  for  admis- 
sion to  graduate  schools.  It  is  gratifying  to  find  that  Wesleyan 
University  is  among  the  small  number  in  the  highest  grade. 

Wesleyan  Alumni  in  Who's  Who  in  America. — In  the  Bulletin 
for  May,  191 1,  reference  was  made  to  a  compilation  of  data  by  the 
Yale  News  which  showed  that  the  names  of  121  alumni  of  Wesleyan 
appeared  in  the  recent  edition  of  Who's  Who  in  America,  placing 
Wesleyan  eleventh  in  the  list  of  American  colleges  and  universities  in 
the  number  of  names  included  in  the  publication.  In  citing  these 
figures,  the  Bulletin  suggested  that  a  computation  of  the  ratio  to  the 
number  of  living  graduates  would  show  more  clearly  the  high  standing 
of  Wesleyan  on  the  list.  Such  a  computation  has  been  contributed  to 
the  current  number  of  the  Amherst  Graduates'  Quarterly  by  Professor 
Walter  F.  Willcox.  Deducting  the  number  of  living  women  graduates, 
and  the  one  woman  graduate  whose  name  appears  in  Who's  Who,  there 


6  WESIvEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

are  120  out  of  1,836  living  men  graduates  of  Wesleyan  listed  in  Who's 
Who,  that  is  a  ratio  of  65.3  per  thousand.  The  ratios  for  other  colleges 
are  Amherst  63.3,  Williams  47.9,  Yale  42.5,  Harvard  41.2,  Columbia  14.6, 
Princeton  12.9,  Pennsylvania  12.5. 

Enlargement  of  the  Faculty.  —  The  large  classes  in  certain 
departments  have  made  the  demand  for  an  increase  of  the  instructing 
force  so  urgent,  that  it  has  been  found  impossible  to  await  the  completion 
of  the  new  endowment  fund.  Instructors  in  the  departments  of  English 
literature,  economics,  and  history  will  be  appointed  for  next  year,  to 
lighten  the  burden  of  the  professors  in  those  departments  and  to  provide 
some  additional  courses  for  which  there  has  long  been  a  demand. 

Improvement  of  Scholarship. — Under  this  caption  in  the  Decem- 
ber Bulletin  an  account  was  given  of  new  regulations  adopted  by  the 
faculty  to  encourage  more  scholarly  work  by  the  students.  While  it  is 
too  eaTly  to  report  on  the  working  of  most  of  those  regulations,  it  is 
already  obvious  that  the  new  rules  affecting  attendance  at  classes  are 
producing  the  desired  results.  It  will  be  some  time,  however,  before  the 
value  of  the  requirement  that  three-fifths  of  the  work  for  graduation 
be  third  grade  or  better  will  be  really  tested. 

At  best  these  regulations  are  of  a  compulsory  nature,  and  compulsion 
is  less  satisfactory  than  inspiration.  At  present  there  are  two  inspira- 
tions to  higher  scholarship:  the  prizes,  and  honors  at  graduation,  under 
which  may  be  included  membership  in  Phi  Beta  Kappa.  Twelve  of  the 
twenty-four  existing  prizes  are  for  the  promotion  of  excellent  work  in 
regular  college  courses.  In  the  last  ten  years  145  of  the  567  bacca- 
laureate degrees  conferred  on  men  have  been  with  honor,  which  means 
that  only  twenty-five  per  cent  of  the  men  graduates  have  maintained  an 
average  of  second  grade  (approximately  So  per  cent)  on  their  entire 
college  course;  and  only  20  of  these  attained  high  honors,  that  is  an 
average  of  first  grade  (approximately  90  per  cent).  The  best  of  the  honor 
men  also  receive  election  to  Phi  Beta  Kappa,  to  the  extent  of  twenty 
per  cent  of  the  class.  The  prizes  based  upon  examination  are  almost 
never  won  by  a  man  who  has  not  attained  honor  rank  in  his  college 
course.  One  of  the  difficulties  is  that  in  many  cases  the  inspiration  to 
attain  honor  or  Phi  Beta  Kappa  rank  does  not  lay  hold  of  a  student  until 
his  senior  year,  and  then  it  is  only  by  desperate  effort  that  he  is  able 
to  redeem  himself.  Perhaps  this  stimulus  could  be  made  effective  to 
some  degree  in  the  earlier  years  of  the  course  if  there  were  published 
each  semester  a  list  of  the  men  who  have  attained  honor  rank  in  each 
study. 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  7 

The  fraternities,  through  their  scholarship  committees,  exercise 
sufficient  supervision  of  their  men  to  assure  their  compliance  with  the 
requirements  for  graduation,  but  they  seem  to  give  less  heed  to  urging 
the  men  to  do  their  best.  Perhaps  the  publication  of  the  honor  lists  as 
suggested  would  arouse  a  fraternity  rivalry  for  best  position  on  the  lists. 
One  member  of  the  faculty  recently  compiled  the  average  standing  of 
the  students  in  one  of  his  classes  on  the  basis  of  fraternities.  Each  of 
the  fraternities  was  represented  by  at  least  five  members,  the  Commons 
Club  by  eleven,  and  the  non-fraternity  group  by  twenty.  The  last 
group  led  the  other  nine  by  from  two  to  fourteen  per  cent.  The  relative 
standing  of  each  fraternity  was  communicated  to  its  scholarship  com- 
mittee, which,  in  several  instances,  promised  immediate  effort  to  raise 
the  standing  of  its  men. 

In  the  granting  of  tuition  scholarships.  President  Shanklin  has 
consistently  emphasized  the  importance  of  the  candidate's  standing  in 
his  college  work;  and  it  is  his  avowed  policy  to  give  increasing  weight  to 
academic  rank  in  the  award  of  tuition  scholarships.  The  effect  cannot 
be  other  than  salutary. 

For  many  years  athletics  has  been  considered  the  most  serious  foe  to 
good  scholarship.  Careful  regulation  has  reduced  this  evil  very  greatly. 
The  exclusion  of  freshmen  from  athletics  during  their  first  semester, 
which  will  be  enforced  after  this  year,  will  probably  make  the  case  rare 
that  an  athlete  fails  to  pass  his  work. 

The  social  interests  and  activities  of  the  students,  on  the  contrary,  are 
not  subject  to  such  regulation,  and  students  who  neglect  their  work 
because  of  undue  attention  to  social  affairs  can  be  reached  only  by 
indirect  influences.  The  parents  can  do  much  more  than  the  faculty  to 
insist  that  the  student  shall  put  study  preeminently  above  society  and 
athletics.  They,  too,  can  do  much  to  increase  the  regularity  of  attend- 
ance on  college  work,  by  discouraging,  to  the  extreme,  absence  from 
town  on  leave  for  causes  other  than  illness.  The  alumni,  also,  can 
individually,  through  their  fraternities,  and  through  the  new  Alumni 
Council,  do  much  to  support  the  faculty  in  the  enforcement  and 
encouragement  of  higher  standards  of  scholarship. 

After  all,  the  essential  thing  is  not  merely  that  the  student  shall  meet 
the  minimum  requirements  for  graduation,  but  that  he  shall  make  the 
very  best  of  his  opportunities  for  intellectual  improvement,  and  this 
means  more  than  study  for  study's  sake. 

Nothing  will  contribute  more  to  make  Wesleyan  the  best  small  college 
than  a  well-deserved  reputation  of  her  students  for  consistent  excellence 
in  that  liberal  scholarship  which  produces  the  finest  type  of  cultured 
men  of  affairs.

The  Marking  System. — One  of  the  most  vexed  problems  of  every 
conscientious  teacher  is  the  duty  of  appraising  the  student's  work  by 
some  manner  of  marking  system.  No  one  knows  better  than  the 
teacher  that  the  personal  equation  is  involved  and  he  therefore  strives 
to  minimize  its  influence.  A  factor  which  it  is  much  less  easy  to  con- 
trol is  the  difference  in  the  character  and  methods  of  work  necessary 
in  different  departments  of  study,  and  even  in  different  courses  in  the 
same  department.  The  apparent  desirability  of  reducing  the  standards 
of  the  various  departments  and  instructors  to  uniformity  has  inspired 
pedagogists  to  devise  a  more  satisfactory  system.  The  members  of  the 
Wesleyan  faculty  are  interested  in  the  problem  and  have  not  failed  to 
give  it  study  and  discussion.  Statistics  prepared  by  Professor  Nicolson 
early  in  the  year  have  helped  each  instructor  to  see  the  relation  of  his 
standards  of  marking  to  those  of  his  colleagues.  Such  statistics  pre- 
pared from  time  to  time  are  perhaps  the  best  means  of  checking  any 
serious  tendency  to  irregularity  in  marking,  whether  due  to  the  personal 
or  departmental  equation. 

The  Honor  System. — In  1895-6,  the  faculty  of  Wesleyan  University 
acceded  to  a  request  of  the  students  that  examinations  should  be  con- 
ducted under  a  student  honor  system,  instead  of  under  the  eye  of 
faculty  proctors.  All  matters  relating  to  alleged  infringement  of  the 
system  are  investigated  by  a  student  conmiittee,  and  in  case  of  guilt  the 
matter  is  reported  to  the  faculty  with  the  recommendation  of  suitable 
penalty.  The  faculty  has  always  accepted  the  report,  and  with  some 
slight  modifications  has  approved  the  sentences  imposed.  The  system 
has  worked  to  the  satisfaction  of  both  students  and  facult)',  and,  even  if 
not  perfect,  is  immensely  superior  to  the  old  custom. 

As  a  college  generation  is  only  four  years,  it  is  necessaril}-  by  con- 
stant vigilance  of  the  upper  classmen  that  the  new  students  are  taught 
the  value  of  the  honor  system  and  respect  for  it.  The  arrangement  has 
been  extended  by  mutual  agreement  to  cover  essays  and  laboratory 
work,  and  in  fact  practically  every  disciplinary  relation  between  the 
faculty  and  the  students.  Whatever  value  the  system  has  rests  upon 
the  maintenance  of  a  high  standard  of  personal  honor  by  every  under- 
graduate. The  "honor  system  "  is  an  official  arrangement  between  the 
faculty  and  students,  and  should  not  be  confused  with  schemes  to 
regulate  athletic  and  political  activities.  While  careful  discrimina- 
tion in  favor  of  this  official  "  honor  system"  is  essential,  the  desire  of  the 
undergraduates  to  enforce  among  themselves  in  athletics  and  politics  a 
superior  standard  of  personal  honor  cannot  be  too  highly  commended.

The  Oldest  Alumnus. — In  the  death  of  John  Wesley  Lindsay,  D.D., 
of  the  class  of  1840,  which  occurred  at  Clifton  Springs,  New  York,  on 
March  6,  1912,.  Wesleyan  University  mourns  the  loss  of  a  notable  figure 
in  her  history,   for  he  was  not  only  the  oldest  survivor  among   the

alumni,  but  also  of  the  Wesle3'an  chapter  of  Phi  Beta  Kappa,  of  the 
faculty,  and  of  the  board  of  trustees. 

Doctor  Lindsay  was  appointed  a  tutor  in  Wesleyan  University  in  1847 
and  from  1848  to  i860  was  professor  of  Latin  and  Hebrew.  The  only 
other  persons  living  who  served  on  the  faculty  of  the  University  prior

to  the  appointment  of  Professor  Rice  in  1867,  are  Professor  John  Monroe 
Van  Vleck,  who  joined  the  faculty  in  1853,  and  Reverend  Daniel  Steele, 
D.  D.,  who  was  tutor  in  mathematics  from  1848  to  1850. 


GEORGE  GREENWOOD  REYNOLDS 


Doctor  Lindsa}-  served  as  a  trustee  of  the  University  from  1862  to 
1875.  No  person  survives  who  was  a  trustee  of  the  University  prior  to 
1871,  when  Judge  Reynolds  and  Reverend  Joseph  Elijah  King,  D.  D., 
of  the  class  of  1S47,  were  elected  to  the  board.  Both  these  veterans  of 
forty  years  of  loyal  service  were  present  at  the  most  recent  meeting  of 
the  board  in  March. 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULI.ETIN  1 1 

The  oldest  living  alumnus  is  now  Honorable  George  Greenwood 
Reynolds,  LL.  D.,  of  the  class  of  184 1;  and  the  second  oldest,  Reverend 
Micah  Jones  Talbot,  D.  D.,  of  the  class  of  1843. 

INTERCOLI^EGIATE  DEBATES.  —  In  the  past  year  Wesleyan  debating 
teams  have  won  four  victories,  receiving  the  votes  of  ten  of  the  twelve 
judges  in  the  four  contests.  Wesleyan  is  modestly  proud  of  the  laurels 
which  her  debaters  win  from  year  to  year.  The  completeness  of  their 
success  this  year  is  especially  gratifying.  An  account  of  the  debates 
and  the  names  of  the  winning  teams  will  be  found  on  a  later  page. 

Department  of  Physicai.  Education. — The  definite  organization 
of  this  department  and  the  scope  of  its  activities  have  been  fully 
explained  in  the  Bulletin  for  December  and  elsewhere  in  this  number. 
The  services  of  the  head  of  the  department,  in  both  an  advisory  and  a 
supervisory  capacity  with  regard  to  the  health  of  the  students  and  their 
physical  fitness  to  attend  their  classes  or  to  participate  in  athletic 
activities,  are  of  great  value  and  importance  both  to  the  individual 
student  and  to  the  University. 

The  head  of  the  department  has  also  given  special  attention  to  en- 
couraging regular  exercise  in  the  open  air,  notably  through  a  complete 
system  of  inter-class  and  inter-fraternity  athletic  contests.  To  encourage 
this  general  participation  of  the  undergraduates  in  athletics,  the  athletic 
council  has  taken  the  novel  step  of  appropriating  $500  this  year  for  the 
support  of  these  contests. 

STATISTICS  CONCERNING  THE  AI.UMNI 
Part  I. 
The  edition  of  the  Alumni  Record  published  in  June,  191 1,  did  not 
contain  statistical  tables  such  as  were  printed  in  the  previous  editions 
of  the  Alumni  Record.  It  is  proposed  to  furnish  such  statistics  to  the 
alumni  in  a  series  of  articles  in  the  Bulletin^  the  first  instalment  of 
which  is  published  herewith.  They  have  been  compiled  by  Professor 
Nicolson,  the  editor  of  the  Alumni  Record. 

I.  DEGREES 
The  fourth  edition  of  the  Alumni  Record  of  Wesleyan  University, 
published  in  June,  1911,  contains  the  names  of  2,849  graduates,  2,627 
men  and  222  women.  Of  these,  2,218  received  the  degree  of  bachelor 
of  arts,  376  the  degree  of  bachelor  of  philosophy,  and  255  the  degree  of 
bachelor  of  science.  The  degrees  of  B.  A.  and  B.  S.  have  been  given 
ever  since  the  establishment  of  the  university.  During  the  first  six 
decades,  up  to  1890,  the  number  of  B.  S.  degrees  conferred  was  relatively 


12  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

small,  amounting  to  only  17  in  the  sixth  decade,  15  in  the  second  decade, 
and  less  than  that  number  in  the  other  decades.  From  1891  to  1900,  54 
such  degrees  were  conferred,  and  from  1901  to  1910,  146.  The  degree 
of  Ph.  B.  was  given  for  the  first  time  in  1878,  and  only  3  Ph.  B.  degrees 
were  given  in  that  decade,  the  fifth.  Sixty-four  Ph.  B.  degrees  were 
given  in  the  sixth  decade — from  1881  to  1S90,  146  from  1891  to  1900,  and 
163  from  1901  to  1910. 

The  degree  of  master  of  arts  in  course  was  conferred  until  1888  upon 
bachelors  of  arts  of  three  years  standing  under  certain  conditions. 
One  thousand  one  hundred  and  two  graduates  of  the  1,633  in  the  years 
1833  to  1890  received  this  degree.  The  degree  of  master  of  arts  on 
examination  was  first  conferred  in  the  }-ear  1892.  Seventy-one  such 
degrees  have  been  conferred  from  that  year  to  the  present.  The 
degree  of  master  of  science  on  examination  was  first  conferred  in  1890, 
and  36  such  degrees  have  been  conferred  from  that  date  to  this. 

The  following  honorary  degrees  have  been  conferred  by  Wesleyan 
University  on  her  own  graduates:  the  degree  of  master  of  arts  upon  14 
persons,  the  degree  of  doctor  of  divinity  upon  94,  and  the  degree  of 
doctor  of  laws  upon  30:  the  degree  of  doctor  of  science  has  been  con-

A  report  of  the  committee  on  honorary  degrees  was  accepted  and 
adopted,  and  the  president  was  authorized  to  confer  various  honorary 
degrees  at  the  approaching  Commencement. 

President  Shanklin,  for  the  endowment  committee,  reported  in  cash 
and  pledges  a  total  of  $581,000,  including  $100,000  from  the  General 
Education  Board.  The  matter  of  the  endowment  was  then  informally 
discussed,  and  plans  perfected  for  an  aggressive  campaign  until 
Commencement. 

Professor  Bradley  was  granted  leave  of  absence  for  the  college  3'ear 
1912-13,  and  Professor  Crawford  for  the  third  term  of  the  same  year. 
Durant  Drake,  Ph.  D.,  was  elected  associate  professor  of  ethics  and 
philosophy  of  religion  for  one  year. 

Reverend  W.  F.  vSheldon,  '99,  of  New  York  City,  was  elected  Assistant 
to  the  President,  his  duties  relating  immediately  to  the  raising  of  the 
endowment  and  later  to  representation  of  the  University  under  the 
direction  of  the  President. 

The  whole  subject  of  the  increase  of  salaries  of  the  faculty  was 
referred  to  the  committee  on  faculty,  to  report  at  the  annual  meeting. 
The  matter  of  the  deficit  was  referred  to  the  committee  on  finance,  to 
report  at  the  annual  meeting.  The  matter  of  a  voting  trust  in  connection 
with  the  Bowne  estate  was  referred  to  the  treasurer  with  power,  and 
with  power  to  execute  all  necessary  papers. 

A  vote  of  thanks  was  extended  to  the  proprietor  of  the  Manhattan 
Hotel  for  courtesies  extended  through  the  year. 

It  was  noted  that  among  the  trustees  present  and  active  was  Judge 
George  G.  Reynolds,  the  oldest  alumnus  of  the  University,  aged  91, 
and  Dr.  Joseph  E.  King,  aged  88.

The  Committee  on  Bibliography  of  the  American  Historical  Associa- 
tion, headed  by  Professor  E.  C.  Richardson,  Librarian  of  Princeton 
University,  recently  prepared  a  check-list  of  historical  works  of  use  in 
connection  with  research  work  in  European  history.  This  list  was  sub- 
mitted to  the  larger  libraries  of  the  L'nited  States  with  the  request  that 
each  librar}'  check  such  sets  as  it  owned.  Among  the  libraries  which 
reported,  the  Wesleyan  library  ranked  twenty-fifth  in  the  number  of 
sets  owned,  being  ahead  of  the  libraries  of  a  number  of  colleges  with 
larger  faculties  and  more  students. 


MUSEUM 

During  the  year  the  museum  has  received  in  gifts  about  12,000  speci- 
mens, most  of  which  cariie  as  a  legacy  from  the  late  Charles  H.  Neflf  of 
Portland,  Connecticut.  This  large  collection  included  78  specimens  of 
wood  of  the  local  trees,  440  specimens  of  minerals,  91  mounted  birds, 
28 1  bird  skins,  883  birds'  eggs,  55  very  beautiful  mollusca  shells,  8,650 
Indian  relics,  and  many  miscellaneous  specimens  of  colonial  household 
utensils  and  other  objects.  The  Indian  collection  has  been  placed  on 
exhibition  in  a  special  case  but  all  the  other  specimens  have  been 
merged  with  the  various  collections  of  the  museum.  These  collections  of 
Mr.  Neft"  were  practically  all  made  in  the  vicinity  of  Portland,  Con- 
necticut, and  will  add  greatly  to  the  value  of  other  collections  of  local 
interest  in  the  museum. 

A  few  minerals  and  fossils  were  donated  by  Reverend  E.  O.  Thayer, 
'75,  of  Barre,  Vermont. 

The  total  number  of  specimens  in  the  museum  is  now  177,385. 

Within  the  last  two  years  all  the  invertebrates,  fish,  amphibia,  and 
reptiles,  have  been  rearranged  and  reclassified,  and  the  large  cases  in 
which  they  are  exhibited  have  been  painted.     Three  large  new  cases 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  21 

have  been  placed  in  the  hall  of  the  second  floor  to  contain  nearly  all 
the  native  New  England  land  and  water  birds. 

The  herbarium,  which  contains  nearly  12,000  plants,  has  been  almost 
entirely  reclassified  according  to  Gray's  Manual  of  Botau}'  by  Mr.  C.  H. 
Bissell  of  Southington,  and  Mr.  C.  A.  Weatherby  of  East  Hartford,  who 
have  voluntarily  given  their  services  and  to  whom  the  University 
extends  its  sincere  thanks. 


DEPARTMENT  NOTES 
Latin. — Mrs.  Atwater   has   recently  added  to   her   previous   gift  of 
photographs  from  Professor  Atwater's  collection  a  number  of  valuable 
framed  photographs  of  classical  works  of  art. 

Philosophy. — Next  year  Courses  IX  and  X  will  be  open  to  seniors 
who  have  taken  Course  I,  thus  providing  a  general  course  in  philosophy 
for  the  present  junior  class.  These  courses  will  also  be  open  to  juniors 
who  have  attained  honor  grades  in  Course  I.  Courses  VIII  and  XI  will 
be  given  in  the  second  half-year. 

Chemistry. — During  the  next  college  year,  while  Professor  Bradley 
is  absent  on  leave,  the  department  will  be  in  charge  of  Associate  Pro- 
fessor Renshaw.  Several  of  the  courses  usually  offered  will  of  necessity 
be  omitted.  But  the  courses  in  the  current  catalogue  numbered  I-III,  . 
V-VIII,  and  XV,  inclusive,  will  be  given.  Full  details  will  be  published 
in  the  forthcoming  announcement  of  courses  of  instruction. 

It  is  pleasant  to  announce  the  return,  in  restored  health,  at  the  close 
of  the  Easter  recess,  of  Mr.  R.  R.  Stevens,  the  assistant  in  the  depart- 
ment, who  was  stricken  with  illness  in  November  last.  Mr.  Stevens 
will  remain  as  assistant  next  3-ear. 

Through  the  interest  of  a  friend  of  the  department,  a  small  fund  has 
been  established,  to  be  known  as  the  Gona  Fund,  the  interest  of  which 
will  provide  for  a  yearly  subscription  to  the  French  journal  Le  Radium. 
The  departmental  library  now  possesses  a  complete  set  of  this  journal, 
the  volumes  already  published  having  recently  been  purchased  from 
general  library  funds. 

Biology. — A  laboratory  course  in  bacteriology  has  been  offered  the 
present  year  and  will  hereafter  be  a  regular  course.  It  is  designed  for 
seniors  and  counts  as  two  hours  for  a  j'ear.  It  includes  the  study  of 
laboratory  methods  of  bacteriological  research  and  is  accompanied  by 
extensive  collateral  reading. 


22  WESLEY  AN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

DEPARTMENT  OF  PHYSICAL  EDUCATION 

An  extensive  account  of  the  plans  of  the  new  department  of  physical 
education  was  published  in  the  Bulletin  of  last  December.  Certain 
additional  details  relative  to  the  working  out  of  these  plans  may  be  of 
interest. 

Examinations. — Complete  physical  examinations  were  given  to  107 
freshmen  and  nearly  the  same  number  of  special  examinations  to  upper- 
classmen  who  wished  to  take  part  in  athletics.  As  a  result  some  fifteen 
students  were  forbidden  to  engage  in  athletics  and  were  warned  against 
any  form  of  violent  exercise  because  of  cardiac  conditions.  Of  the 
freshmen,  sixteen  were  advised  to  consult  a  dentist  at  once,  twenty- 
four  were  found  subject  to  a  greater  or  less  degree  of  astigmatism  and 
thirty-four  of  myopia  or  presbyopia.  These  men,  as  well  as  several 
others  found  to  have  serious  physical  defects,  received  advice  as  to  the 
proper  care  and  treatment  of  their  condition  and  many  were  followed 
up  to  make  sure  that  the  advice  was  being  taken. 

Medical  Work. — The  medical  work  of  the  department  has  consumed 
far  more  time  than  had  been  anticipated.  A  very  large  number  of 
students  have  consulted  Dr.  Fauver  for  various  conditions,  including 
minor  sprains  and  bruises.  Many  cases  necessitated  a  visit  to  the 
student  in  his  room.  This  has  afforded  an  insight  into  the  hygienic 
condition  of  the  dormitories  and  fraternity  houses,  which  the  depart- 
ment hopes  to  use  for  the  benefit  of  the  students.  Several  of  the  more 
serious  cases  it  was  necessary  to  send  to  the  city  hospital  or  to  one  of 
the  local  physicians  for  proper  care.  It  is  clear  from  the  records  kept 
by  the  department  that  there  is  a  great  need  for  an  infirmary  under  the 
care  of  a  college  physician  to  render  possible  the  speedy  removal  of  a 
student  from  his  room  to  a  place  where  he  can  receive  the  necessary 
care.  As  conditions  now  exist,  many  a  patient  with  tonsilitis  or  other 
infectious  condition  is  compelled  to  sleep  in  the  same  room  with  one  or 
two  other  students,  thus  exposing  them  to  the  same  disease,  or  is  left 
alone  for  a  whole  day  or  a  night  without  any  care  whatever. 

ATHLETICS. — Intra-mural  sports  have  been  carried  on  very  successfully 
during  the  past  year.  The  gymnasium  classes  have  met  at  earlier  hours 
than  heretofore,  thus  leaving  the  gymnasium  free  for  optional  work  and 
sports  in  the  late  afternoon.  Sixty  men  participated  in  the  interclass 
football  series  and  125  men  in  the  basketball  series  in  which  56  games 
were  played  by  teams  representing  each  class  and  each  fraternity  and  the 
Commons  Club.     This  spring  intra-mural  sports  are  being  conducted  in 


WESIvEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  23 

baseball,  tennis,  and  track.  Probably  125  men  will  participate  in  base- 
ball, thirty  in  tennis,  and  fifty  in  track,  in  each  case  exclusive  of  the 
'varsity  teams.  The  Boston  alumni  have  contributed  largely  to  stimu- 
late interest  in  these  sports  by  the  donation  of  an  interclass  champion- 
ship cup  to  be  awarded  each  year  to  the  class  that  wins  the  interclass 
athletic  championship  of  the  college.  By  vote  of  the  athletic  council 
$500  has  been  devoted  for  the  expense  of  conducting  these  sports  in 
which  no  'var.sitymen  participate. 


CHRISTIAN   ASSOCIATION 

Of  390  men  registered  in  Wesleyan  University  the  present  year,  261 
are  enrolled  as  active  members  of  the  Christian  Association.  About 
175  men  were  enrolled  in  voluntary  Bible  classes,  70  of  them  attend- 
ing Bible  groups  in  churches.  The  course  on  the  Old  Testament  con- 
ducted by  Professor  Dutcher  at  the  Methodist  Church  and  mentioned 
in  the  December  Bulletin,  was  succeeded  by  a  Survey  of  the  New  Testa- 
ment, conducted  in  eight  lectures  by  Professor  Hewitt  and  a  course 
on  The  Church  as  seen  across  the  Ages,  by  Professor  Kuhns.  About 
fifty  men  were  enrolled  in  mission  study  classes  and  about  fifteen  in 
various  classes  for  the  study  of  social  service.  Among  the  forms  of 
actual  service  in  which  over  50  members  of  the  Association  have  been 
engaged,  are,  neighborhood,  gymnasium,  library,  and  boy-scout  work, 
as  well  as  prayer  meetings  held  at  the  poor  farm  and  at  other  places. 
By  the  employment  bureau,  conducted  by  Mr.  Logee,  from  30  to  35  men 
have  been  assisted  to  obtain  remunerative  work.  The  officers  for  the 
ensuing  year  are  as  follows:  President,  Harris,  '13;  Vice-President, 
Laggren,  '13;  Secretary,  Hall,  '14,  and  Treasurer,  Witman,  '13. 


DEBATE 


The  debating  teams  have  been  eminently  successful  in  the  contests  of 
the  past  year.  They  have  not  suffered  a  single  defeat,  have  secured  the 
verdict  of  ten  out  of  a  possible  twelve  judges,  and  might  well  claim  the 
championship  of  New  England.  In  the  triangular  league  contests  wuth 
Amherst  and  Williams,  the  question  was:  Resolved,  that  United  States 
senators  should  be  elected  by  direct  vote  of  the  people.  In  each  case  the 
home  team  upheld  the  affirmative.  The  Wesleyan  team  which  defeated 
Amherst  at  Amherst  was  composed  of  Buck,  '12,  Cornish,  '14,  and 
S.   W.   Murphy,    '13,   as  alternate.      That   which   defeated   Williams  at 


24  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

Middletown  consisted  of  Coit,  '12,  Wallis,  '12,  with  Willoughby,  '15,  as 
alternate.  The  judges  at  Middletown  were  Messrs.  Alfred  Jaretzki  and 
Henry  M.  Leipziger,  of  New  York  City,  and  Professor  Arthur  L.  Corbin, 
of  Yale  Universit}';  those  at  Amherst  were  Professor  Thomas  R.  Powell 
of  Columbia  School  of  Law,  Professor  Cranston  Brenton,  of  Trinity 
College,  and  Mr.  Herbert  C.  Parsons,  Editor  of  the  Greenfield  Record. 
In  the  six  years  of  the  existence  of  the  Triangular  Debating  League, 
Wesleyan  is  the  first  college  to  win  two  championships.  As  the  first 
winner  since  the  purchase  of  the  cup,  it  is  the  first  to  have  its  name 
engraved  on  the  cup,  which  passes  permanently  to  the  college  that  wins 
the  triangular  debate  thrice  in  succession. 

It  has  been  the  custom  the  past  two  years  for  Wesleyan  to  meet  both 
Bowdoin  and  New  York  Universit}-  in  a  spring  debate.  By  arranging 
that  these  two  institutions  should  also  meet  each  other,  another  tri- 
angular league  was  formed.  In  the  initial  contest  Wesleyan  was  victor- 
ious. The  question  was:  Resolved,  that  for  all  injuries  to  employees 
in  American  industry,  not  due  to  the  serious  and  wilful  misconduct  of 
the  injured,  employers  should  make  compensations  in  substantial  con- 
formity to  the  schedule  of  the  New  York  bill  of  1910  (constitutionality 
waived).  The  judges  were  as  follows:  at  Middletown,  Dean  Byron  S. 
Hurlbut,  of  Harvard  University;  Professor  F.  N.  Oilman,  of  Newark, 
New  Jersey;  and  Mr.  Lyman  A.  Best,  of  Brooklyn,  New  York;  at 
Brunswick,  Honorable  George  E.  Bird  and  Reverend  Raymond  Calkins, 
of  Portland,  Maine,  and  Honorable  Harold  M.  Sewall,  of  Bath,  Maine. 
In  this  debate  too,  the  home  teams  upheld  the  affirmative.  Coit,  '12, 
Rice,  '13,  and  Wallis,  '12,  with  Abraham,  '14,  as  alternate,  won  from 
New  York  University  at  Middletown,  while  Buck,  '12,  Cornish,  "14, 
Willoughby,  '15,  with  Shepherd,  '12,  as  alternate,  defeated  Bowdoin 
at  Brunswick. 

The  class  debate  on  the  question  employed  in  the  December  triangular 
debate  was  won  by  the  freshman  team,  composed  of  Willoughby  and 
White,  with  MacMullen  as  alternate.  The  sophomore  contestants  were 
Abraham  and  Dulany,  with  Amy  as  alternate.  The  judges  were  Pro- 
fessor Crawford,  Dr.  Curts,  and  Mr.  Sherbarn.  On  May  i,  the  freshmen 
debated  the  freshmen  of  Brown  on  the  negative  of  the  question:  Re- 
solved, that  women  in  the  United  States  should  receive  the  suffrage  on 
equal  terms  with  men.  The  freshman  team  was  composed  of  Richmond, 
A.  I.  Prince,  and  Brodhead,  with  Alleman  as  alternate.  The  judges, 
Honorable  Edward  L.  Smith,  Mr.  George  A.  Kellogg,  and  Professor 
Alfred  M.  Hitchcock,  all  of  Hartford,  awarded  the  decision  to  the 
affirmative. 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  25 

The  Briggs  Prize  Debate  was  held  on  March  9,  Wallis,  '12,  and 
Willoughby,  '15,  upholding  the  affirmative  and  Coit,  '12,  and  Buck,  '12, 
the  negative.  The  question  used  in  the  spring  triangular  formed  the 
basis  of  this  debate.  The  prize  was  unanimously  awarded  to  Buck,  12, 
by  the  judges,  Senator  Thomas  J.  Spellacy  of  Hartford,  Professor  Gustav 
A.  Kleene  of  Trinity  College,  and  Honorable  George  B.  Chandler  of 
Rockv  Hill. 


UNIVERSITY  NOTES 

Dinner  to  President  Shanklin. — On  November  10,  Stephen  H. 
Olin,  LL.  D.,  '65,  son  of  Wesleyan's  second  president,  gave  a  dinner 
in  honor  of  President  Shanklin  at  the  University  Club  of  New  York. 
About  twent}'  invited  guests  were  present,  among  them  Professor  Rice 
and  Professor  Winchester. 

Mysticai,  Seven. — This  oldest  of  the  class  societies  at  Wesleyan  is 
building  a  house  on  the  north  side  of  Wyllys  Street,  about  two  hundred 
feet  from  High  Street.  The  corner  stone  was  laid  shortly  after  one 
o'clock  on  the  afternoon  of  March  20,  in  the  presence  of  the  191 2

Harrington  retired  at  its  annual  election  in  February,  after  having  been 
elected  in  four  successive  years.  At  its  June  meeting  he  was  presented 
by  the  members  of  the  club  with  a  Middletown-made  typewriter,  the 
Noiseless,  on  which  was  a  silver  plate  suitably  engraved. 

At  the  city  elections  held  in  January,  the  term  of  Professor  Fisher  as 
mayor  of  Middletown  came  to  a  close.  He  was  elected  first  in  1906  and

New  England  Oratorical  League. — The  preliminary  contest  to 
select  the  Wesleyan  representative  for  the  annual  contest  of  the  New 
England  Oratorical  League  was  held  in  Memorial  Chapel  on  April  15 
and  resulted  in  the  selection  of  Robertson,  '12,  whose  subject  was  "The 
Trusts  and  the  Nation."  Eaton,  '12,  who  spoke  on  "The  Mission  of 
Grover  Cleveland,"  was  chosen  as  alternate.  The  other  speakers  were 
Coit,  '12,  Stiles,  '13,  Fellini,  '14,  and  MacKirdy,  '14.  The  committee 
of  the  faculty  on  public  literary  exercises  acted  as  judges. 

The  third  intercollegiate  contest  was  held  at  Brown  University,  May 
2.  The  judges.  Reverend  Frank  Warfield  Crowder  of  Providence, 
Rhode  Island,  Judge  Thomas  Ives  Chatfield  of  Brooklyn,  New  York, 
Dr.  Charles  Robert  Gaston  of  Richmond  Hill,  New  York,  Professor 
Frederick  Tupper,  Jr.  of  Universitj^  of  Vermont,  and  Dean  Henry 
Lawrence  Southwick  of  Emerson  School  of  Oratory,  awarded  the  first

Irish  Drama."  John  Henry  Williams  of  Brown  received  honorable 
mention  for  his  oration  on  "An  Ishmael  Among  Nations." 

Fire  Alarm  Box. — A  fire  alarm  box.  No.  43,  has  been  installed  near 
the  roadway,  directly  in  the  rear  of  Judd  Hall.  Keys  are  kept  at  Judd 
Hall,  at  the  Library,,  the  college  office,  and  at  the  house  of  the  superin- 
tendent of  grounds,  Mr.  Shaw.  The  installation  of  this  box  brings  all 
the  buildings  of  the  L'niversity  within  easy  reach  of  help  in  case  of 
danger  from  fire  and  should  eliminate  the  possibility  of  the  recurrence 
of  such  a  fire  as  destroyed  old  North  College  in  1906. 

Laboratories  of  the  State  Board  of  Health. — These  laboratories, 
w'hich  are  under  the  directorship  of  Professor  Conn,  are  steadily  increas- 
ing their  influence.  To  the  routine  work  of  the  bacteriological  laboratory 
has  been  added  the  diagnosis  of  cerebral  meningitis,  the  examination  of 
pus  for  the  purpose  of  determining  the  use  of  modern  bacterial 
vaccines,  and  the  diagno.sis  of  glanders.  Although  the  laboratory 
has  been  prepared  only  a  few  weeks  to  perform  the  diagnosis  of  glanders, 
there  is  already  a  great  demand  for  its  services  by  veterinarians  and 
others  interested  in  the  public  health.  Mr.  Robert  Victor  Story,  '12, 
has  been  appointed  assistant  bacteriologist  in  place  of  Mr.  Mickle. 

The  routine  work  of  the  chemical  laboratory  consists  of  the  examina- 
tion of  water,  sewage,  sewage  filter  effluents,  and  illuminating  oils. 
In  September  and  October,  1911,  the  Torrington  typhoid  epidemic  was 
investigated  and  the  report  will  be  submitted  in  a  short  time.  It  is 
probable  that  the  water  was  the  source  of  infection  and  the  cause  of  333 
reported  cases  and  34  deaths.    Mr.   Thomas  R.   Lathrope  has  resigned 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  27 

from  the  position  of  assistant  chemist  and  will  take  charge  of  the 
laboratory  of  the  East  St.  Louis  (Illinois)  water  supply  about  June  i. 
His  place  will  be  taken  by  Mr.  Friend  Lee  Mickle,  B.  A.,  Allegheny, 
1911,  who  has  been  in  the  bacteriological  laboratory  the  past  year. 
State  Chemist  Newlands  has  delivered  in  various  parts  of  the  state 
several  lectures  on  the  protection  of  streams,  harbors,  and  water  supply 
from  contamination.

UNDERGRADUATE  NOTES 
Social  Study  Club. — For  the  study  of  social  problems  and  current 
events  the  Social  Study  Club  was  organized  in  December,  191 1,  with 
about  sixty  charter  members.  The  meetings,  held  bi-weekly,  are  devoted 
to  lectures  or  discussions.  For  purposes  of  organization  a  charter  was 
obtained  from  the  Intercollegiate  Socialistic  Society,  which  has  thirty- 
four  chapters  in  the  colleges  and  universities  of  the  United  States, 
and  has  furnished  a  lecturer  to  the  Social  Study  Club.  The  club  sent 
its  only  avowed  socialist  to  the  convention  of  the  society,  which  was 
held  in  New  York  City,  December,  1911.  The  officers  of  the  club  are: 
President,  Coit,  '12;  Vice-President,  Hancock,  '13;  Secretary-Treasurer, 
Bell,  '12. 

No-Deal  Agreement. — The  student  body  of  Wesleyan  University 
has  entered  into  a  no-deal  agreement,  by  which  each  man  agrees  upon 
his  honor  that  neither  as  a  fraternity  man  nor  as  an  individual  will  he 
"  enter  into  any  '  deal  '  or  combination  in  regard  to  the  support  of  any 
undergraduate  for  any  undergraduate  activity"  and  will  report  in 
writing  to  the  Senate  any  suspected  violation  of  such  pledge.  This 
agreement  became  binding  only  when  signed  by  four-fifths  of  the 
undergraduates  and  is  to  be  brought  up  for  ratification  annually  within 
one  month  of  the  opening  of  the  college  year.  Until  that  time  the 
agreement  of  the  preceding  year  is  to  be  held  binding.

Dormitory  Regulations.— At  a  meeting  of  the  occupants  of  North 
College  and  Observatory  Hall  on  March  22,  a  committee  of  nine  men 
was  chosen  to  have  in  charge  the  maintenance  of  proper  order  in  the 
dormitories,  general  regulations  were  adopted,  and  the  occupants  agreed 
to  aid  their  committee  to  the  best  of  their  ability. 

Press  Club. — The  Press  Club  has  been  reorganized  this  year,  and 
vigorous  eflforts  have  been  made  to  get  the  University  properly  repre- 
sented in  the  newspapers.  Every  month  business  meetings  are  held, 
at  which  the  members  present  reports  on  their  work.  To  train  the 
members  of  the  club  and  any  others  who  are  interested  ui  press  work, 
W.  S.  Wallace,  '04,  has  been  giving  instruction  in  newspaper  style  at 
weekly  meetings.  The  officers  are:  President,  Crowther,  '12;  Vice- 
President,  S.  W.  Murphy,  '13;  Secretary-Treasurer,  Nichols,  '13. 

Dramatic  Association. — "  Vou  Never  Can  Tell,"  by  Bernard  Shaw, 
was  presented  on  May  9,  in  Middletown.  No  out  of  town  trip  is 
planned  this  year. 

Commons  Club. — Early  in  January  the  Commons  Club  reentered 
upon  the  occupancy  of  the  Foss  House,  renovated  and  enlarged  after 
the  fire  of  last  September.  The  parlors  and  veranda  have  been  enlarged, 
a  new  fireplace  has  been  installed  in  the  living  room,  and  a  large  assem- 
bly room  with  a  stage,  suitable  for  the  annual  dramatic  performances  of 
the  Club,  has  been  added.  The  public  rooms  and  the  studies  are  supplied 
with  mission  furniture.  Practically  all  the  students'  rooms  have 
been  converted  from  suites  into  single  rooms.  On  January  13  the  Club 
exhibited  its  new  quarters  b}-  tendering  a  reception  to  the  facult\', 
undergraduates,  and  townspeople. 

The  Club  has  added  to  its  constitution  two  articles,  one  providing 
that  no  individual  nor  general  initiation  shall  take  place  prior  to 
December  i;  the  other,  that  all  initiates  shall  pledge  themselves  not 
to  join  any  other  fraternity  or  similar  club  at  VVesleyan  University. 

On  April  i,  the  annual  convention  of  the  National  Federation  of 
Commons  Clubs  was  entertained  by  the  Wesleyan  Chapter,  which  is  the 
parent  of  the  national  organization.  Delegates  were  in  attendance 
from  Tufts,  Union,  Colby,  and  Syracuse,  besides  representatives  from 
several  other  clubs  that  wish  to  affiliate  with  the  Federation. 

On  the  evening  of  April  i,  about  one  hundred  and  fifty,  including  the 
faculty  and  other  invited  guests,  witnessed  the  annual  dramatic  per- 
formance of  the  Club.  The  play  presented  was  Bernard  Shaw's  "Arms 
and  the  Man."

1873,  1887-1889,  1896-1897. 

Crowned  with  years  and  honor.  Professor  Van  Vleck  has 
finished  his  course.  Both  in  length  of  service  and  in  wealth  of 
influence  his  career  is  conspicuous  in  the  annals  of  American 
colleges.  For  fifty-eight  years  he  was  a  member  of  the  faculty 
of  Wesleyan  University,  so  that  his  official  connection  with  the 
University  exceeded  that  of  any  other  person  by  nearly  fifteen 
years.  Fifty  classes  of  Wesleyan  graduates  bear  abundant  testi- 
mony to  his  keen  and  stimulating  teaching.  During  forty  years 
his  colleagues  in  the  faculty  looked  to  him  as  their  leader.  No 
one,  save  possibly  the  first  president,  Willbur  Fisk,  has  wielded 
a  greater  influence  in  moulding  the  character  of  the  University. 
He  has  endowed  Wesleyan  University  with  his  love  of  truth, 
his  catholicity  of  mind,  his  spirit  of  conservative  progress,  and 
his  loyalty  in  service.  His  memory  will  ever  be  revered  in  the 
University  he  loved  so  loyally  and  served  so  well. 


4  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

The  New  Endowment. — Deepest  gratification  fills  every  Wesleyan 
heart  because  of  the  paying  of  the  deficit  and  the  completion  of  the 
fund  of  one  million  dollars  of  additional  endowment  last  June.  More 
than  half  the  livdng  graduates,  more  than  three-fourths  of  the  under- 
graduates, and  many  friends  of  the  University  had  a  part  in  this  noble 
achievement.  To  President  Shanklin,  to  President  John  Cheesman 
Clark,  '86,  of  the  board  of  trustees,  and  to  the  other  members  of  the 
committee  on  endowment,  is  due  the  credit  for  the  successful  leadership 
in  the  campaign. 

More  than  |40o,ooohas  alread}-  been  paid  in,  and  the  rest  is  payable  in 
instalments  on  July  i  of  each  year  to  1916  inclusive.  The  full  benefit 
of  the  new  endowment  will  not,  therefore,  be  realized  until  the  fiscal 
year  19 16-17.  The  trustees  will  authorize  the  contemplated  advances 
and  developments  as  rapidly  as  the  fund  becomes  available,  but  they 
intend  to  avoid  any  deficit  in  the  future. 

New  Buildings. — Having  effected  the  necessary  increase  in  the 
endowment  funds,  the  board  of  trustees  has  turned,  without  delay,  to 
the  next  problem  of  importance,  the  erection  of  certain  new  buildings 
and  the  remodeling  of  some  of  the  old  ones.  At  the  meeting  of  the 
trustees  on  November  i,  a  committee  was  appointed  to  take  charge  of 
this  work,  and  was  authorized  and  directed  to  employ  a  landscape  archi- 
tect to  assist  in  drawing  suitable,  comprehensive  plans.  The  erection  of 
an  astronomical  observatory,  for  which  funds  had  been  given  by 
the  late  Joseph  \'an  Vleck,  and  his  brother.  Professor  Van  Vleck, 
was  authorized.  The  building  will  be  placed  north  of  the  Foss  House, 
on  the  knoll  which  was  recently  purchased.  The  construction  of  an 
addition  to  the  Fayerweather  Gymnasium,  containing  a  swimming  pool, 
was  also  authorized.  The  fiends  for  this  wdrk  have  been  pledged  by  a 
donor  who  prefers  to  remain  anonAinous.  To  accommodate  the  increas- 
ing number  of  students,  immediate  steps  are  to  be  taken  to  erect  a  new 
dormitory  and  to  remodel  Memorial  Chapel,  and  they  should  be  ready 
for  occupancy  in  September  next.  For  these  two  purposes  the  com- 
mittee nnist  look  to  friends  of  the  University  to  supply  the  needed  money. 

For  the  efficient  work  of  both  faculty  and  students  there  is  the  most 
urgent  need  of  fireproof  buildings  of  the  most  approved  modern 
construction  and  convenience  to  house  the  library  and  the  department  of 
chemistr}-.  The  safe  housing  of  the  valuable  nmseum  collections,  and 
the  convenient  accommodation  of  the  departments  of  biology  and 
geolpgy,  must  be  arranged,  perhaps  b}-  remodeling  Judd  Hall  and  the 
present  library  building.  Any  delay  in  securing  these  urgently  needed 
accommodations  can  with  difficulty  be  tolerated,  but  such  relief  is 
entirely  dependent  upon  the  receipt  of  gifts  for  the  specific  purposes. 


WKSLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  5 

Registration. — For  the  first  time  the  total  attendance  at  Wesleyan 
exceeds  400,  the  registration  being  at  present  410,  as  compared  with  396 
last  year.  The  entering  class  numbers  123,  exceeding  all  previous 
classes  except  that  of  1913,  which  entered  133  strong.  These  figures 
furnish  the  more  reason  for  congratulation  as  the  increase  of  ten  per 
cent  in  the  number  of  the  entering  class  this  j'ear  over  last  is  a  larger 
percentage  of  growth  than  is  shown  by  any  other  New  England  college 
this  year — in  fact  all  but  two  or  three  have  smaller  entering  classes  than 
last  year. 

Adv.\nced  Standing. — This  year  twelve  men  enter  Wesleyan  from 
other  colleges,  with  advanced  standing.  The  increase  in  the  number 
of  men  entering  each  year  with  advanced  standing  has  been  one  of  the 
notable  features  of  the  growth  in  attendance  under  President  Shanklin's 
administration.  Wesleyan  ought  to  attract  an  even  larger  number  of 
such  men,  especiall)-  from  the  smaller  western  colleges  from  which 
every  year  a  considerable  number  of  men  enter  the  various  New 
England  colleges. 

Five  Hundred  Men. — Wesleyan  Universit}-  has  her  mission  as  a 
small  college.  The  raising  of  the  attendance  above  the  four  hundred 
mark  poses  the  question  of  the  limit  of  size  of  the  student  body.  In  his 
inaugural  address,  President  Shanklin  set  the  figure  at  five  hundred,  and 
that  opinion  has  the  approval  of  triistees,  faculty,  and  alumni. 

Increased  endowment,  new  buildings,  additional  members  of  the 
faculty,  and  new  courses  of  study,  were  essential  to  keep  Wesleyan  a 
first-class  college  for  three  hundred  men,  the  attendance  when  President 
Shanklin  was  elected  four  years  ago.  The  equipment  requisite  for  three 
hundred  men  can  be  used  with  greater  economy  by  five  hundred  men. 

In  seeking  an  attendance  which  shall  approximate  five  hundred  men, 
it  is  proposed  to  enforce  such  high  standards  for  admission,  for  contin- 
uance in  college,  and  for  graduation,  that  the  advantages  of  the  Univer- 
sity shall  be  enjoyed  only  by  those  who  are  both  able  and  willing  to 
prove  themselves  worthy  of  its  high  privileges.  The  current  expenses 
of  the  University  are  almost  exactly  five  times  the  amount  received  in 
fees  from  the  students,  so  that  it  is  not  merely  an  economic  waste,  but 
a  gross  injustice  to  tolerate  in  the  University  any  who  fail  to  profit  by 
its  opportvmities.  The  constantly  improving  facilities  of  the  University 
demand  that  any  growth  in  attendance  shall  be  accompanied  by  a  more 
rigid  enforcement  of  scholarly  standards.  Thus  shall  the  Wesleyan 
degree  ever  signify  high  excellence  of  character  and  of  scholarship.

Master's  Degree. — Another  action  raising  Wesleyan  requirements 
was  adopted  by  the  board  of  trustees  in  June,  upon  recommendation 
of  the  facult}'.  Henceforth  no  new  candidates  for  the  master's  degree  in 
absence  will  be  matriculated,  and  those  already  matriculated  will  be 
required  to  complete  their  work  within  a  reasonable  time.  A  careful 
stiidy  of  the  records  showed  conclusively  that  the  system  of  master's 
work  in  absence  had  failed  to  justify  itself.  Its  abolition  will  increase 
the  value  of  the  degree  to  those  who  earn  it  in  residence.  Some  im- 
portant modifications  of  the  rules  concerning  master's  work  in  residence 
have  also  raised  the  standard  for  that  degree. 

The  Fine  Arts. — In  the  upbuilding  of  Wesleyan  University  the 
insistent  demands  of  the  sciences  and  the  liberal  arts  have  almost 
totally  deprived  the  fine  arts  of  consideration.  In  the  teaching  of 
literature  and  the  development  of  literary  appreciation  Wesle^-an  has 
long  held  an  enviable  position  among  the  colleges  of  the  countr}',  but 
only  a  small  part  of  the  time  of  one  course  is  at  present  devoted  to  the 
fine  arts.  With  the  illustrative  aid  of  three  portrait  casts  and  some 
lantern  slides,  several  upper-classmen  hear  a  few  lectures  on  sculpture 
in  the  course  on  Greek  Civilization.  Music  and  the  drama  are  con- 
signed to  the  voluntary  mercies  of  three  undergraduate  organizations. 
Is  Wesleyan  giving  its  students  a  genuineh'  liberal  culture  when  it  thus 
faiLs  to  develop  in  them  aesthetic  tastes  and  cultivate  their  powers  of 
artistic  appreciation  and  expression  ? 

It  is  not  necessary  that  departments  of  the  fine  arts  should  be  estab- 
lished or  large  sums  expended  in  order  to  afford  some  valuable  instruc- 
tion in  aesthetics  and  some  excellent  opportunities  for  the  enjoyment 
of  the  different  forms  of  artistic  expression.  Lectures  on  art,  loan 
exhibitions  of  paintings,  drawings,  and  engravdngs,  musical  recitals, 
and  performances  of  the  classic  dramas,  might  be  arranged  each  year, 
and,  with  the  assistance  of  the  people  of  Middletown,  be  made  to  defray, 
in  large  part,  their  expense.  Might  not  a  facility  committee  be  ap- 
pointed and  granted  an  annual  appropriation  to  carry  out  each  year 
some  of  these  suggestions?  Might  not  the  gift  of  a  well  chosen,  though 
not  necessarily  large,  collection  of  casts  of  ancient  sculpture,  arranged 
in  the  large  vacant  basement  of  Fisk  Hall,  increase  several  fold  the 
value  of  the  instruction  in  Greek  sculpture,  and  serve  a  far  wider  pur- 
pose as  well  ?  Might  not  another  gift  provide  for  the  purchase  and 
mounting  in  wing-cases  of  a  collection  of  art  photographs,  especially 
the  series  of  colored  prints  of  paintings  by  the  old  masters  ?  When* 
Memorial   Chapel   is  remodeled,   might  not   the   organ   be  rebuilt  and

enlarged  so  as  to  fit  it  for  use  in  recitals  such  as  are  so  popular  and 
so  thoroughly  eiijoyed  in  some  other  colleges? 

The  need  for  some  such  cultivation  of  the  fine  arts  is  the  more  serious, 
because  a  large  proportion  of  the  student  body  come  from  localities 
where  there  are  few  or  no  opportunities  to  develop  an  artistic  taste. 
Should  not  Wesleyan  bring  to  these  men  the  enrichment  of  life  that 
such  opportunities  would  afford  ? 

FiNANCiAi,  Exhibit.  —  The  finances  of  the  University  for  the  past 
fiscal  year  show  a  gratifying  increase  of  $196,415  in  the  property  of  the 
University,  of  which  $19,300  is  added  to  the  value  of  the  material  equip- 
ment, and  $177,115  to  the  endowment  funds.  Scholarship  endowments 
have  been  increased  $65,500,  almost  doubling  the  amount.  A  slight 
increase  in  the  library  endowment  carries  that  fund  above  $100,000. 
The  payments  to  the  new  endowment  fund  for  the  year  ending  June  30, 
1912,  amounted  to  $218,612,  making  the  total  at  the  end  of  the  year 
$284,128.  The  most  notable  single  contribution  received  during  the 
year  was  the  bequest  of  $40,000  from  the  estate  of  the  late  Walter 
Hubbard  of  Meriden  for  a  scholarship  fund.  A  decrease  of  $39,530  in 
the  deficit  is  shown,  and  during  the  first  thirty  days  of  the  new  fiscal 
year  the  remaining  $49,540  was  paid  off. 

The  average  rate  of  yield  of  the  investments  decreased  one  quarter  of 
one  per  cent,  partly  because  of  the  necessity  of  renewing  certain  in- 
vestments at  a  lower  interest  rate,  and  partly  because  nearly  $200,000 
was  added  to  the  investments  in  the  last  months  of  the  year  and  so_ 
failed  to  show  its  full  proportionate  return.  The  variation  of  certain 
items  of  expenditure  from  the  normal  is  due  to  conditions  associated 
with  the  campaign  for  the  new  endowment,  or  is  otherwise  explained 
in  the  completely  itemized  form  of  the  Unancial  Exhibit. 

Alumni  Council. — In  the  meeting  of  the  Alumni  Council  on  Novem- 
ber 2,  the  permanent  organization  was  completed  by  the  election 
of  Warren  French  Sheldon,  '99,  as  secretary.  Mr.  Sheldon  has  taken 
up  his  residence  in  Middletown,  and  his  office  in  East  Hall  will  be  the 
headqtiarters  for  all  matters  affecting  the  alumni.  Mr.  Sheldon  will  be 
glad  to  welcome  there  all  alumni  as  they  revisit  Middletown,  and  con- 
sider with  them  any  matters  relating  to  the  interests  of  the  alumni  or  of 
the  University.  The  first  efforts  of  the  secretary  will  be  to  study  the 
workings  of  similar  organizations  in  other  institutions  and  to  perfect 
the  organization  of  the  council  and  its  methods  of  work.  He  will  also 
give  nuTch  attention  to  publicity  work.     Other  lines  of  activity  will  be

developed  as  time  goes  on.  It  is  cause  for  congratulation  that  a  man 
with  gifts  so  peculiarly  fitting  him  for  the  work  has  been  found  to  serve 
as  secretary. 

Wii,BRAHAM  Academy. — While  there  has  never  been  any  organic  con- 
nection between  Wesleyan  Academy  at  Wilbraham  and  the  University, 
intimate  and  cordial  relations  have  always  subsisted  between  the  two 
institutions.  In  a  way  the  Academy  was  the  parent  of  the  University, 
and  its  first  president  became  the  first  president  of  the  University.  In 
June,  191 1,  circumstances  made  advisable  the  temporary  closing  of  the 
Academy.  Since  then  150,000  has  been  raised  and  expended  in  repairs 
and  alterations  so  that  the  plant  has  been  completely  renovated.  The 
practice  of  coeducation  which  had  existed  from  the  founding  of  the 
Academy  has  been  terminated.  The  Academy  was  reopened  as  a  school 
for  boj'S  in  September,  1912.  Professor  Winchester  is  the  president  of 
the  board  of  trustees,  which  includes  several  other  alumni  of  the  Uni- 
versity. Several  of  the  new  faculty  are  also  graduates  of  the  University, 
the  principal  being  Gaylord  William  Douglass,  '00.  The  opening  of 
the  Academy  under  the  new  regime  was  marked  by  appropriate  exer- 
cises on  November  S-9,  at  which  Professor  Winchester  presided,  and 
President  Shanklin  was  one  of  the  speakers.  The  University  extends 
most  cordial  greetings  to  the  Academy  and  best  wishes  to  the  new 
administration. 

The  Presidential  Election. — Reference  is  made  on  another  page 
to  the  earnest,  intelligent  interest  in  the  issues  of  the  recent  presidential 
campaign  displayed  by  the  undergraduates. 

Wesleyan  men  felt  a  special  interest  in  the  campaign  because  Presi- 
dent Taft  had  visited  the  University  at  the  installation  of  President 
Shanklin,  and  because  Governor  Wilson  had  once  been  a  member  of  the 
Wesleyan  faculty.  Mr.  Wilson  was  Professor  of  Historj'  and  Political 
Economy  from  1888  to  1890  and  published  at  that  time  his  well-known 
book,  The  State.  The  scope  of  his  influence  in  the  University  was 
quite  out  of  proportion  to  the  brief  period  of  his  connection  with  it. 
His  keen  interest  in  the  undergraduates  and  their  activities,  especially 
in  football,  have  been  recalled  during  recent  months.  The  members  of 
the  faculty  who  were  his  contemporaries  retain  pleasantest  memories  of 
him  as  a  colleague.  Wesleyan  men,  without  consideration  of  party, 
will  watch  his  career  as  president  with  keen  interest  and  hearty  good 
wishes.

TRIBUTE  TO  PROFEvSSOR  VAN  VLECK* 

John  Monroe  Van  Vleck,  for  nearly  sixty  years  professor  in  Wesleyan 
University,  died  at  his  home  in  Middletown,  on  the  evening  of 
November  4. 

The  death  of  Professor  Van  Vleck  removes  one  of  the  most  eminent 
scholars  and  siiccessftil  educators  of  the  last  generation.  He  was 
graduated  from  Wesleyan  University  in  the  class  of  1850.  After  teach- 
ing a  year  in  the  acadenn'  at  East  Greenwich,  R.  I.,  he  spent  two 
j'ears  as  assistant  in  the  Nautical  Almanac  office  in  Cambridge,  and  was 
then  recalled  to  his  Alma  Mater  as  adjunct  professor  of  mathematics. 
Three  years  later  he  was  appointed  professor  of  mathematics  and  astron- 
omy, and  performed  the  full  diities  of  that  professorship  from  1858  to 
1904,  when  he  retired  from  active  service  and  was  made  professor 
emeritus.  He  was  three  times  acting  president  of  the  University,  for 
periods  of  from  one  to  three  years  each.  He  was  widely  known  as  an 
astronomer,  and  was  a  member  of  several  learned  societies  both  in  this 
country  and  abroad.  As  a  college  teacher,  fifty  classes  of  Wesleyan 
alumni  that  have  sat  in  his  lecture-room  can  attest  the  clearness  of  his 
thinking,  the  precision  of  his  speech,  and  a  certain  kindly  intensity  of 
manner  which  often  made  very  ijiapt  students  interested  in  the  difficult 
subject  that  he  taught.  Few  teachers  can  ever  have  had  more  power  to 
stimulate  in  their  pupils  the  cardinal  intellectual  virtues  of  logical 
thought  and  exact  statement. 

Btit  probably  it  may  be  said  with  truth  that  the  greatest  work  of 
Professor  Van  Vleck  was  done  neither  in  the  observatory  nor  in  the 
class-room.  He  deserves  to  be  remembered,  not  chiefly  as  an  astrono- 
mer or  as  a  teacher,  eminent  as  he  was  in  both  those  capacities,  but  rather 
as  one  of  the  makers  of  Wesleyan  University.  He  was  called  to  his 
chair  when  the  young  college  was  barely  twenty-five  years  old,  its 
policy  as  yet  largely  undecided,  its  rank  among  the  institutions  of  New 
England  as  j'et  uncertain.  He  was  the  one  member  of  its  faculty  in 
continuous  service  for  a  period  covering  more  than  two-thirds  the  whole 
history  of  the  college;  and  it  was  to  his  wise  counsels  that  Wesleyan 
University  is  largely  indebted  for  its  steady  and  consistent  development. 
It  is  not  too  much  to  saj-  that,  for  the  greater  part  of  his  long  term  of 
service,  he  was  the  leading  mind  of  the  faculty.  He  kept  himself 
thoroughly  conversant  with  the  changing  methods  and  ideals  of  the 
higher  education,  and  at  every  period  of  crisis  or  advance  his  counsels  were

always  weight)^  and  usually  decisive.  In  the  evolution  of  the  curriculum, 
in  the  methods  of  administration,  in  the  choice  of  new  officers  of

Wesleyan  University  what  it  is  to-day;  no  one  man  is  now  left  alive  who 
knows  so  much  of  its  history  as  he  knew.  The  new  and  well-appointed 
astronomical  observatory  soon  to  be  erected  in  Middletown  will  perpetu- 
ate his  name  and  continue  the  work  of  his  professorship;    but  his  best 


WESLKYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  1 1 

memorial  will  be  in  the  grateful  remembrance  of  all  those  who  know 
the  history  of  Wesleyau  Universit}-. 

Any  sketch  of  Professor  Van  Vleck  wonld  be  very  inadequate  that  did 
not  mention  his  unusual  breadth  of  attainment  and  the  range  of  his 
interests  oi^tside  his  profession.  As  one  of  his  old  friends  remarked  the 
other  day,  he  was  a  lover  of  truth  wherever  truth  is  to  be  found.  A 
singularly  clear,  strong  thinker,  he  had  made  up  his  mind  on  almost  all 
important  subjects.  Modest  even  to  shyness,  averse  to  all  publicity  or 
display,  yet  the  soundness  of  his  judgment  and  the  intensity  of  his 
convictions  gave  him  a  commanding  influence  in  whatever  society  he 
moved.  He  took  an  active  interest,  all  his  life,  in  whatever  concerned 
the  public  welfare;  only  a  few  days  before  his  death  he  expressed  his 
regret  that  he  could  not  live  long  enough  to  cast  a  vote  in  the  recent 
presidential  election.  His  religious  convictions  were  equally  pro- 
nounced; for  more  than  half  a  century  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church 
in  Middletown  had  no  wiser,  more  devout,  or  helpful  member.  He  was 
three  times  lay  delegate  to  the  Methodist  Ecumenical  Conference — in 
1881,  1891,  1901.  The  years  of  his  professorship  included  the  period 
during  which  the  seeming  antagonism  between  science  and  religion 
was  most  prominent.  He  was  fully  aware  of  the  gravity  of  the  ques- 
tions raised  by  the  new  scientiiic  teaching;  but  he  found  the  essen- 
tials of  his  faith  unshaken.  His  life  was  a  constant  example  of  the 
union  of  the  devout  belief  of  the  Christian  with  the  open  mind  of  the 
scientist. 

His  was  a  mind  of  rare  and  generous  culture  on  all  sides,  broadened 
by  extensive  travel  and  observation,  by  wide  reading,  especially  in 
history,  literature,  and  philosophy,  and  always  open  to  the  charm  of  all 
forms  of  art.  This  broad  humanity,  tempering  his  characteristic 
positiveness  of  opinion,  and  combined  with  a  singularly  genial  disposi- 
tion, made  him  a  most  delightful  companion.  The  host  of  Wesleyan 
alumni,  old  and  young,  will  honor  and  revere  his  memor}-;  but  to  a 
smaller  circle  of  those  of  us  half  a  generation  younger  than  he,  who  first 
met  him  when  we  were  just  passing  into  manhood  and  he  was  in  the 
flush  of  mid-life,  who  for  more  than  thirty  years  knew  him  in  the  daily 
intercourse  of  professional  duty,  who  saw  him  often  in  the  delightful 
atmosphere  of  his  home,  who  were  privileged  sometimes  to  share  his 
better-instructed  enjoyment  of  books  or  art  or  music  or  travel,  who 
often  went  to  him  for  wise  counsel  or  sympathy  or  encouragement,  and 
never  went  in  vain — to  us  his  departure  brings  a  personal  grief, 
lessened  only  by  our  memory  of  his  long,  useful,  noble  life. 


12  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

At  a  meeting  of  the  facult}"  on  November  18,  the  following  resolution 
was  adopted  by  a  rising  vote: 

JOHN  MONROE  VAN  VLECK 
1S33-1912 

The  Facult}-  of  Wesleyau  University  deem  it  fitting  to  place  on  their 
records  an  expression  of  their  high  appreciation  of  the  work  and  charac- 
ter of  one  who  has  been  for  so  many  years  the  loved  and  honored  Senior 
Professor. 

No  man  in  all  the  history  of  the  college  has  been  intimateh-  associated 
with  its  life  and  work  for  so  long  a  period.  Undergraduate,  1849-50; 
Bachelor  of  Arts,  1850;  Master  of  Arts,  1853;  Doctor  of  Laws,  1900; 
Adjunct  Professor  of  Mathematics,  1853-57;  Professor  of  Mathematics 
and  Astronomy,  1858-1904;  Professor  Emeritus,  1904-12;  Acting  Presi- 
dent, 1872-3,  1887-9,  1896-7;  Vice-President,  1890-1903. 

In  the  half-centur}'  of  his  active  service  in  the  faculty,  he  exerted  an 
influence  upon  the  lives  of  his  pupils  and  upon  the  collective  life  of  the 
institution,  far-reaching,  profound,  and  beneficent. 

He  was  an  inspiring  teacher,  especially  to  the  better  students  in  every 
class.  His  thought  was  surpassingly  clear,  his  language  critically 
accurate.  His  love  of  truth  was  intense — the  ruling  passion  of  his  soul. 
His  students  found  in  his  teaching  intellectual  awakening  and  moral 
inspiration.     They  learned  to  think  clearly  and  to  speak  sincerely. 

Professor  Van  Vleck  was  for  twoscore  }"ears  the  dominant  influence 
in  the  shaping  of  the  curriculum,  in  the  choice  of  instriictors,  and  in 
guiding  the  general  policy  of  the  college.  Especially  in  the  series  of 
changes  inaugurated  in  1873,  by  which  the  college  passed  from  the  old 
regime  of  fixed  curriculum  and  rigid  disciplinary  administration  to  the 
elective  curriculum  and  the  freer  life  of  the  modern  university,  Professor 
Van  Vleck  w-as  the  leader.  Others  helped  to  shape  the  details  of  the 
new  program,  but  his  were  the  inspiring  principles.  The  lofty  ideals 
and  the  high  standards  of  which  Wesleyan  University  is  justly  proud 
it  owes  to  him  more  than  to  any  other  one  man. 

He  was  an  earnest  student  in  his  own  department,  but  had  a  broad 
and  liberal  sympathy  with  all  the  intellectual  life  of  the  age.  He  was 
a  man  of  wide  reading  in  literature  and  history,  in  philosophy  and 
theology.  He  was  an  enthusiastic  lover  of  art.  He  desired  a  fuller 
development  of  his  chosen  department  in  the  college;  and  the  munifi- 
cent gift  of  his  brother,  Joseph  Van  Vleck,  for  the  new  observatory,  was 
supplemented  by  generous  contributions  of  his  own.  But  he  rejoiced 
with  liberal  sympathy  in  all  good  work  done  and  in  all  progress  made 
in  every  department. 


WESLEY  AN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  1 3 

He  was  a  man  of  tender  and  affectionate  heart.  And  for  the  love  he 
gave  he  received  a  rich  recompense  of  love.  His  memory  will  be  grate- 
fnllv  cherished  by  nuiltitudes  of  his  former  students,  and  most  of  all  by 
those  who,  as  his  colleagues  in  the  faculty,  have  found  in  him  generous 
sympathy  and  inspiring  counsel. 

He  was  a  loyal  member  of  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church,  a  patriotic 
citizen,  a  man  profoundly  iu  sympathy  with  all  the  philanthropic  move- 
ments which  are  the  glory  of  our  age. 

Wesleyan  University  is  growing  richer  in  the  memories  of  earnest 
students,  inspiring  teachers,  wise  counselors,  and  men  of  pure  and 
honest  and  gentle  lives.  Among  the  noblest  names  on  that  roll  of  honor 
stands  the  name  of  John  Monroe  Van  Vleck. 


TRUSTEE  MEETINGvS 

An  adjourned  meeting  of  the  board  of  trustees  was  held  in  the  Man- 
hattan Hotel,  New  York  City,  June  4,  191 2. 

The  following  appointments  to  the  faculty  were  made,  all  for  one 
year:  Doctor  Leroy  Albert  Howland,  Associate  Professor  of  Mathematics; 
Doctor  Burton  Howard  Camp,  Associate  Professor  of  Mathematics; 
Doctor  David  Day  Whitney,  Associate  Professor  of  Zoology  and  Acting 
Curator  of  the  Museum;  Doctor  Raemer  Rex  Renshaw,  Associate 
Professor  of  Chemistry;  John  Wesley  Wetzel,  Instructor  in  Public 
Speaking;  Louis  Bliss  Gillet,  Instructor  in  English;  Albert  Mann,  Jr., 
Instructor  in  Romance  Languages;  John  Peter  Senning,  Instructor  in 
History;  Doctor  Lee  Ward,  Instructor  in  Chemistry;  Edith  Leona 
Eastman,  Assistant  Librarian. 

The  President  was  authorized  to  secure  an  assistant  for  Professor 
Conn. 

It  was  voted  to  reduce  the  fees  in  the  course  in  organic  chemistry 
from  |io  to  $8. 

The  President  was  authorized  to  confer  the  degree  of  Doctor  of  Laws 
on  Governor  Simeon  Eben  Baldwin  of  Connecticut  and  on  Doctor  Amos 
Jay  Givens  of  Stamford,  Connecticut. 

It  was  voted  that  no  application  for  the  degree  of  Master  of  Arts  in 
absejiiia  be  received  after  January  15,  1913. 

The  degree  of  Master  of  Arts  aJ  ciindetii  was  conferred  on  President

authority  to  purchase  and  take  and  to  sell  and  transfer  in  the  name  of 
the  corporation  every  kind  of  estate,  real,  personal,  or  mixed,  and  so

Arts,  Bachelor  of  Science,  Master  of  Arts,  and  Master  of  Science  upon 
certain  candidates  recommended  by  the  facult}-. 

The  by-law  requiring  ten  days'  notice  to  the  committee  on  honorary 
degrees  was  suspended,  and  it  was  voted  to  confer  the  honorary  degree 
of  Master  of  Arts  on  John  Wesley  Narraway,  of  the  class  of  '62. 

Upon  recommendation  of  the  faculty,  the  following  rule  was  adopted: 
Candidates  for  the  bachelor's  degree  who  satisfy  the  requirements  for 
honors  in  general  scholarship  may  in  their  senior  year  be  admitted  to  can- 
didacy for  the  master's  degree,  provided  that  the  amount  of  their  under- 
graduate work  remaining  to  be  completed  at  the  close  of  the  September 
special  examinations  does  not  exceed  three  hours.  Except  by  express 
permission  of  the  committee  on  graduate  instruction,  their  undergrad- 
uate work  must  satisfy  the  group  requirement  in  such  manner  that  they 
are  free  to  elect  the  remaining  three  hours  in  the  department  or  depart- 
ments in  which  they  intend  to  do  graduate  work.  Such  candidates 
shall  rank  as  graduate  students  and  shall  not  be  members  of  any  athletic 
or  debating  teams,  musical  or  dramatic  organizations,  or  take  part  in 
any  similar  undergraduate  activity.  This  rule,  however,  shall  not  neces- 
sarily debar  them  from  competing  for  any  prize  for  which  they  would 


1 6  WESLKYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

be  eligible  as  undergraduates.  The  entire  work  of  these  candidates 
shall  be  under  the  direction  of  the  conmiittee  on  graduate  instruction. 
The  master's  degree  shall  not  be  conferred  upon  them  until  the  Com- 
mencement succeeding  that  at  -which  the  bachelor's  degree  has  been 
conferred. 

An  adjourned  meeting  of  the  board  of  trustees  was  held  in  Fisk  Hall, 
Middletown,  on  the  evening  of  November  i,  1912. 

President  Shanklin  spoke  briefl}'  regarding  the  completion  of  the 
million  dollar  endowment  fund,  and  in  the  course  of  his  remarks  intro- 
duced the  new  members  of  the  Board:  J.  E.  Eiistis,  W.  F.  Hamilton, 
G.  W.  Davison,  W.  H.  Hall,  and  H.  I.  Harriman. 

He  called  attention  to  the  fact  that  1,374  individuals  had  made  sub- 
scriptions to  the  endowment  fund,  289  of  these  being  undergraduates. 
He  also  stated  that  the  total  amount  contributed  by  members  of  the 
board  of  trustees,  not  including  the  subscriptions  of  the  new  trustees 
elected  in  June,  1912,  was  1312,415,  and  concluded  with  an  optimistic 
statement  concerning  the  general  condition  of  the  college. 

Treasurer  C.  D.  Burdick  stated  that  the  financial  report  was  now  in 
the  hands  of  the  printer  and  would  be  mailed  to  the  members  of  the 
board  within  two  weeks.  He  further  said  that  on  July  24,  19 12,  all 
the  debts  of  the  college  had  been  paid,  and  there  had  been  collected  in 
addition  approximately  1225,000.  Since  July  24  he  had  received  $90,000. 
When  these  amounts  are  added  to  the  amount  received  or  due  from  the 
General  Education  Board,  it  will  be  seen  that  nearly  $400,000  has 
thus  far  been  received  from  subscriptions  toward  the  endowment  fund 
and  the  payment  of  the  deficit. 

The  chair  was  authorized  to  appoint  a  committee  of  seven  on  buildings 
and  grounds,  the  president  of  the  board  and  the  president  of  the 
University  to  he  members  of  the  committee,  and  the  committee  to  have 
power  to  add  to  its  number  as  it  may  deem  wise. 

Professor  Kulins  was  granted  leave  of  absence  for  the  second  half  of 
the  college  year  1913-14. 

The  degree  of  B.  A.  was  voted  to  C.  W.  Marshall,  who  has  completed 
the  work  necessary  for  the  degree. 

The  resignation  of  E.  A.  Bishop  as  trustee  from  the  Vermont  con- 
ference was  accepted,  and  the  secretary  was  directed  to  express  an 
appreciation  of  Doctor  Bishop's  service  and  regret  at  his  necessary 
resignation. 

It  was  voted  that  the  committee  on  faculty,  with  the  finance  committee 
of  the  board,  be  requested  to  report  at  the  next  meeting  of  the  board 
detailed  recommendations  as  to  increase  of  salaries  of  members  of  the 
facultv.

The  total  receipts  from  investments  during  the  year  were  $84,225.88. 
The  income  of  the  general  investments  has  been  divided  at  the  rate  of 
4.885  per  cent  among  the  funds  and  balances  to  which  these  investments 
belong,  no  interest  being  allowed  to  the  profit  and  loss  account  for 
general  endowment,  and  only  the  interest  called  for  by  agreement  being 
allowed  on  the  annuity  funds.  By  vote  of  the  board  of  trustees,  the 
expenditures  from  any  library,  scholarship,  or  prize  fund,  in  any  one 
year,  shall  not  exceed  4!^  per  cent  of  the  principal  of  said  fund.  Any 
income  above  /i,)i  per  cent  is  added  to  the  principal  of  the  fund. 

During  the  year  payments  of  $1,269.24  increased  the  alumni  fund  from 
$91,808.74  to  $93,077.98.  Of  the  new  payments  $1,117.34  was  credited  to 
the  general  endowment  fund,  and  $151.90  to  the  general  income  account. 

During  the  year  payments  of  $218,61 1.65  increased  the  new  endowment 
fund  from  $65,516.65  to  $284,128.30.  Of  this  amount  $174,128.30  has

RECENT  GIFTS 


Since  the  publication  of  the  last  Bulletin  the  new  endowment  fund 
has  been  increased  by  gifts  aggregating  $240,784.37.  Of  this  amount 
$168,672.24  has  been  received  since  Jiily  i,  1912. 

The  general  endowment  has  been  increased  by  the  following  gifts: 
$1,000  from  Albert  C.  Sparks  to  establish  an  annuity  fund,  which  will 
eventually  become  the  Celina  H.  Sparks  scholarship  fund;  $1,000  from 
the  estate  of  Mrs.  Elizabeth  F.  Vanderveer;  securities  valued  at  $19,000 
from  the  estate  of  Samuel  W.  Bowne. 

W.  R.  Walkle}',  '60,  has  added  $30  to  the  principal  of  the  Walkley 
prize  fund.  Additional  payments  of  $72  have  been  received  for  the 
undergraduate  building  fund  for  North  College;  and  further  payments 
to  the  alumni  endowment  fund  have  been  made  amounting  to  $449.20. 


WESLEYAN  HOSPITAL  FUND 

In  1909  the  committee  of  ladies  which  had  collected  the  Weslevan 
Hospital  Fund,  turned  over  to  the  treasurer  of  the  University  the 
principal  of  the  fund,  amounting  to  $5,232.42. 

The  income  of  the  fund  to  November  i,  1912,  amounted  to  $812.62. 
To  the  same  date  28  cases  had  been  cared  for,  the  total  expenditure 
being  $678.34.     The  balance  of  $125.28  was  accumulated  during  the  first

two  years.  Last  year  the  expenses  nearly  equalled  the  receipts.  This 
fund  was  collected  for  a  student  body  of  three  hundred  and  it  is  not 
adequate  for  the  number  of  men  now  in  college. 

Heartv  thanks  are  due  to  the  medical  and  surgical  staffs  and  to  the 
superintendent  of  the  Middlesex  Hospital  for  the  excellent  care  taken 
of  the  stvidents  who  have  been  sent  to  the  hospital.  All  cases  have 
been  treated  successfully.

'94,  and  W.  H.  Hall,  '92,  in  behalf  of  the  endowment  fund,  noting  in  it

C.  F.  Rice,  '72;  First  Vice-President,  J.  A.  Cole,  '87;  Second  J'ice-

Lower  Chapel  on  Tuesday,  June  18,  1912,  at  11:55  A.  M.,  President  A.  F. 
Goodrich,  '99,  in  the  chair. 

in  the  absence  of  the  treasurer,  S.  V.  Coffin,  '89,  read  on  his  behalf  a 
report  showing  that  an  organized  effort  had  been  made  to  increase  the 
membership  and  the  financial  strength  of  the  association.  In  spite  of 
the  fact  that  active  effort  was  discontinued  by  February  i  so  as  not  to 
come  into  conflict  with  the  endowment  campaign,  the  paid  membership 
had  been  increased  to  368  as  compared  wath  236  of  the  previous  year, 
and  the  total  amount  of  money  collected  to  $1,334  as  against  $887— a

received  the  full  salary  of  the  football  coach,  fSso,  and  over  ^325  toward 
the  salar}"  of  the  baseball  coach  had  been  paid. 

S.  V.  Coffin,  '89,  was  elected  to  succeed  himself  as  alumni  representa-

L.  E.  Gordon,  '94,  gave  a  very  encouraging  report  of  the  financial 
situation  of  athletics  at  Wesleyan  during  the  past  year,  showing  a  credit 
balance  of  $1,200  for  the  year. 


ALUMNI  COUNCIL 


At  the  regular  annual  meeting  held  in  Middletown,  November  2,  the 
Alumni  Council  completed  its  organization  by  the  election  of  W.  F. 
Sheldon,  '99,  as  secretary.  A.  B.  Carrington,  '76,  was  elected  president 
for  the  ensuing  year.  G.  I.  Bodine,  Jr.,  '06,  and  K.  M.  Goode,  '04,  were 
elected  members  at  large  for  a  term  of  five  years. 

An  office  is  being  equipped  for  the  secretarj-  in  East  Hall  which  will 
serve  as  headquarters  for  the  alunmi.  The  trustees  of  the  University 
are  bearing  the  major  expenses  of  the  Council  upon  terms  that  have 
been  arranged  with  the  finance  connnittee. 

Progress  has  been  made  already  in  the  direction  of  improved  methods 
of  publicity  and  closer  relations  with  important  preparatory  schools. 
The  other  departments  of  the  Council  will  soon  be  at  work,  following 
the  appointment  of  the  committees  for  the  new  year. 

The  policy  of  the  Alumni  Council  is  thus  stated  by  the  new  secretary: 
"The  first  problem,  and  the  abiding  one,  of  the  Council  is  not  to  sup- 
plant the  existing  alumni  organizations  but  to  supplement  and  coordi- 
nate their  activities  until  the  entire  brotherhood  of  Weslej'an  men, 
graduate  and  undergraduate,  is  working  together  as  one  compact  body 
for  Wesleyan  ideals  under  the  leadership  of  a  faculty  and  an  adminis- 
tration second  to  none." 

Warren  French  Sheldon,  the  new  secretary  of  the  Alunmi 
Council,  was  graduated  from  Wesleyan  in  the  class  of  1899,  with  the 
degree  of  B.  A.  He  received  the  degree  of  B.  D.  from  Hartford  Theo- 
logical Seminary  in  1906.  He  is  a  member  of  the  New^  York  East 
Conference  of  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church  and  has  held  four 
appointments  in  Connecticut,  and  one  in  New  York  city  from  which  he 
was  called  to  Wesleyan  six  months  ago  to  serve  as  assistant  to  the 
president.

DEPARTMENT  NOTES 
L.A.TIN. — In  the  absence  of  Professor  Harrington,  Courses  IV  and  V 
are  conducted  this  year  by  Professor  Hewitt. 

Greek. — In  response  to  an  insistent  demand,  the  department  is 
offering  for  the  first  time  a  course  in  beginners'  Greek.  No  credit 
is  given  for  the  course  unless  it  is  followed  the  next  year  by  Courses  B 
and  I  and  is  passed  with  a  grade  of  at  least  three.  About  fifteen  men 
are  taking  the  course. 

German. — Owing  to  the  absence  of  Doctor  Curts  the  present  year, 
there  has  been  some  rearrangement  of  German  courses.  Course  III 
(German  Daily  Life  and  Institutions),  formerly  given  by  Professor  Fife, 
is  given  this  year  by  Doctor  Schoeuemann;  Course  V  (Nineteenth 
Century  Drama)  by  Professor  Fife.  Course  VII,  given  in  the  second 
half-vear,  has  heretofore  consisted  of  a  study  of  Heine's  life  and  works; 
this  year  it  will  be  replaced  by  a  course  on  contemporary  German 
literature,  givfen  by  Doctor  Schoeuemann,  to  cover  the  main  currents  of 
German  literature  since  1880,  with  especial  reference  to  modern  culture 
and  social  conditions  in  present-day  Germany  and  will  be  accompanied 
by  rapid  reading  from  the  more  important  dramatists  and  lyric  poets  of 
the  past  three  decades. 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  3I 

English  Literature. — The  class  in  English  Literature  I  is  con- 
ducted this  year  jointly  by  Professor  Winchester  and  Mr.  Gillet. 
Professor  Winchester  lectures  to  the  whole  class,  Mondays,  on  the 
history  of  the  literature,  using  Stopford  Brooke's  History  as  a  basis  or 
syllabus  of  his  lectures;  Mr.  Gillet  meets  the  class  twice  a  week,  in 
three  sections,  for  an  exercise  in  the  reading  and  study  of  representative 
specimens  of  the  literature. 

Mr.  Gillet  also  gives  an  elective  course  this  year,  open  to  juniors,  on 
the  literature  of  the  later  Victorian  period — Rossetti,  Swinburne,  Morris, 
Newman,  Stevenson,  Meredith. 

Mr.  Bert  Enisley  (Harvard,  '11)  is  Assistant  this  3'ear  in  the  depart- 
ment of  English  Literature  and  the  department  of  English  Language. 

History. — Professor  Dutcher  retains  charge  of  the  introductory 
course  in  English  History,  of  the  seminary  course  for  advanced  seniors, 
and  of  the  courses  in  European  history.  He  intends  to  give  the  course 
in  Modern  European  History  since  1660  every  year,  and  to  alternate 
with  the  course  in  Mediaeval  European  History  between  800  and  1660  a 
course  in  Ancient  History  down  to  800.  He  will  also  give  a  course  in  the 
History  of  the  Expansion  of  Europe  in  years  when  there  is  sufficient 
demand  for  it. 

Mr.  Senning  is  giving  two  courses  in  American  History,  one  from  1750 
to  1829,  and  the  other  from  1829  to  the  present.  He  is  also  giving  a 
course  in  Political  Science,  which  this  year  will  include  a  study  in 
political  theory  during  the  first  semester  and  of  municipal  administra- 
tion during  the  second  semester.  No  course  has  been  offered  in  political 
science  since  1901,  when  the  subject  was  dropped  in  order  to  provide  for 
more  adequate  attention  to  history. 

Economics. — Professor  Fisher  retains  full  charge  of  the  classes  in 
economics  this  year,  but  has  entrusted  all  the  work  in  sociology  to  Mr. 
^Gowin,  who  has  been  appointed  instructor  in  the  department.  The 
former  courses  in  Sociology  and  Social  Science  have  been  somewhat 
modified  in  character  and  the  titles  changed  to  Principles  of  Sociology 
and  Applied  Sociology.  Mr.  Gowin  is  also  offering  two  new  courses  this 
year  in  Anthropolog}'  and  Social  Psycholog}-,  each  two  hours  for  the 
year.  In  addition  to  the  stud)'  of  physical  characteristics  and  cultural 
conditions,  the  course  in  Anthropology  includes  a  consideration  of  the 
race  problems  in  America.  The  course  in  Social  Psycliolog}'  is  an 
attempt  to  interpret  society  in  the  terms  of  its  chief  psychic  factors,  and 
to  study  the  interplay  of  individual  mind  and  social  mind  in  its  various 
manifestations.     It  is  expected  that   the  courses  in   the  Principles  of 


32  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

Sociology  and  Applied  Sociology  will  be  given  every  year,  instead  of  in 
alternate  years  as  heretofore.  Courses  in  Statistics  and  Social  Theory  are 
planned  to  alternate  with  those  in  Anthropology  and  Social  Psycholog)'. 

Philosophy. — The  experiment  is  being  tried  this  year  of  admitting 
juniors  to  Courses  IX-X.  These  have  long  been  senior  courses,  but  if 
the  experiment  succeeds  it  will  enable  the  department  to  pro\-ide  a 
continuous  course  in  pure  philosophy,  as  well  as  in  psychology-,  for  the 
many  students  who  elect  Course  I  in  their  sophomore  year.  Course  XI, 
the  seminary,  will  remain  restricted  to  seniors  and  graduate  students. 

Ethics  and  Philosophy  of  Religion. — The  course  in  Ethics  has 
been  made  more  concrete  and  practical  than  formerly.  On  the  many 
problems  discussed  in  the  class-room,  readings  are  assigned  in  a  great 
number  of  books  instead  of  a  single  text.  The  course  in  Philosophv  of 
Religion  covers  the  ground  formerly  covered  by  courses  in  Christian 
Evidences  and  Theism,  with  especial  attention  to  the  recent  scholarly 
investigations  of  religion  and  the  practical  religious  problems  of  the 
present  day.  Two  courses,  each  three  hours  per  semester,  are  devoted 
to  an  historical  and  interpretative  study  of  the  Old  and  New  Testaments 
respectively.  The  seminary  on  Great  Ethical  Teachers  is  an  addition  to 
the  work  of  the  department. 

Physics. — Recent  purchases  include  a  nine-inch  screw-cutting  lathe 
for  the  physical  laboratory,  a  McLeod  pressure  gauge,  two  standard 
condensers,  two  measuring  instruments  for  alternating  currents,  and  a 
moving  coil  galvanometer. 

Chemistry. — In  the  absence  of  Professor  Bradley,  Courses  IV 
(Liquefaction  of  Gases)  and  XIV  (Theoretical  Chemistry),  usually  given 
by  him,  have  been  omitted,  as  have  also  Courses  IX  (Industrial  Chem- 
istry) and  XII  and  XIII  (Physiological  Chemistry),  usually  given  by 
Professor  Renshaw.  Courses  I  (Elementary  Chemistry)  and  XV  (Sem- 
inary) are  conducted  by  Professor  Renshaw. 

Geology.— Course  II,  which  has  hitherto  consisted  of  tw^o  lectures  per 
week  during  the  year,  has  been  extended  this  year  to  three  lectures  per 
week.  The  general  plan  and  scope  of  the  course  remains  unchanged, 
but  the  extension  of  the  time  will  allow  some  topics  to  be  treated  more 
satisfactoril}-  than  before. 

Biology. — Mr.  R.  H.  Drake,  "12,  has  been  appointed  as  an  additional 
assistant  in  the  department  to  render  possible  the  longer  laboratory 
hours  necessitated  by  the  large  number  of  students  electing  the  labora- 
torv  courses.

UNIVERSITY  NOTES 

Publications. — In  June,  1912,  was  published  an  address  book  of 
alumni  and  former  students  of  Wesleyan  University.  It  was  compiled 
by  Professor  Nicolson,  and  its  112  pages  contain  the  addresses  of 
alumni,  non-graduates,  honorary  alumni,  and  masters  not  Wesleyan 
graduates,  arranged  alphabetically  under  each  division,  as  well  as  a 
geographical  list. 

Improvements  and  Repairs. — Owing  to  the  crowded  condition  of 
the  library  it  has  been  found  necessary  to  use  the  basement  for  the 
storing  of  books.  Two-thirds  of  the  basement  has  been  partitioned  off, 
ceiled,  and  fitted  with  electric  lights  and  with  shelves  to  contain  about 
twelve  thousand  volumes.  All  supplies  for  the  library  can  now  be 
delivered  at  the  rear  of  the  building  and  be  brought  in  through  the 
basement.  Here,  too,  books  are  prepared  for  the  shelves,  for  part  of 
the  added  space  is  used  for  receiving  new  books  and  for  cataloguing 
and  assorting  books  and  pamphlets. 

The  gymnasium  has  been  equipped  with  a  new  gutter  and  a  new 
cement  floor  under  the  showers.  Fifty  new  steel  lockers  have  replaced 
a  somewhat  smaller  number  of  the  old  wooden  type.  An  inner  store- 
room adjoining  the  office  of  the  director  has  been  enlarged  and  equipped 
with  a  sink,  hot  and  cold  water,  a  small  sterilizer,  and  additional  lights. 
This  room  is  to  be  used  as  a  consulting  and  examining  room,  making  it 
possible  to  use  the  main  office  as  a  waiting  room. 

A  cottage,  to  be  occupied  by  Doctor  Fauver,  has  been  built,  just  east  of 
Foss  House,  on  Mount  Vernon  Street. 

The  old  Eclectic  house  has  been  reshingled  and  repainted.  The  sum  of 
three  hundred  dollars  was  granted  for  the  conservation  of  the  trees  and 
was  expended  chiefly  for  spraying  and  for  the  filling  of  cavities. 

Collaboration  with  the  Carnegie  Institution. — The  collabora- 
tion of  Professors  Dodge  and  Cady  in  the  research  work  of  the  Nutrition 
Laboratory  of  the  Carnegie  Institution  is  a  convincing  and  welcome 
expression  of  the  warm  appreciation  of  its  Director,  Doctor  Francis 
Gano  Benedict,  for  the  faculty  of  Wesleyan  University  and  their 
scientific  attainments.  In  view  of  the  fact  that  the  calorimeter  originated 
at  Wesleyan  under  our  lamented  Professor  Atwater,  and  of  the  loss  that 
this  University  sustained  in  its  removal  to  Boston,  it  is  especially 
gratifying  that  this  intimate  scientific  relationship  is  being  maintained. 

An  Appreciation  oe  Professor  Atwater's  Researches.— A  strik- 
ing illustration  of  the  extraordinarily  high  regard  with  which  Professor 


34  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

Atwater's  researches  are  held  in  foreign  countries  has  recently  come  to 
light  in  the  publication  of  a  book  of  1,107  pages  by  Professor  Jules 
Lefevre,  entitled  Chaleur  Animale  et  Bioenergetiqae,  published  in 
Paris,  191 1.  The  third  section  of  this  book  is  entitled  "  Application  de 
la  Calorimetrie  a  PAnah'se  du  Metabolisnie  et  des  Bilans  Energetiques, 
— L.es  Travaux  d'Atwater  et  de  I'Ecole  Americaine  sur  rHomnie,"  and 
gives  a  complete  description  of  the  Atwater-Rosa  apparatus  at  Wesleyan 
University.  All  through  the  book  the  views  of  Professor  Atwater  are 
continually  brought  forward  and  discussed  in  great  detail  with  most 
appreciative  comments.  In  the  author  index  more  references  are  made 
to  Professor  Atwater  than  to  any  other  man  save  the  writer.  Professor 
Lefevre.  It  is  extremely  gratifying  to  find  that  this  work,  which  repre- 
sents by  far  the  most  ambitious  compilation  on  animal  heat,  gives  so 
much  space  to  a  presentation  of  the  researches  of  Professor  Atwater. 

Geological  Excursion. — The  twelfth  annual  intercollegiate  geolog- 
ical excursion  was  held,  under  the  direction  of  Professor  Rice,  on  Friday 
and  Saturday,  October  18  and  19.  Such  an  intercollegiate  excursion  is 
held  every  autumn,  under  the  direction  of  some  one  of  the  professors  of 
geology  of  the  New  England  colleges.  This  year  the  programme  com- 
menced with  a  meeting  in  Scott  Laborator}-  on  Friday  evening,  at  which  a 
lecture  was  given  by  Professor  Joseph  Barrell  of  Yale  on  "  Central  Con- 
necticut in  Geologic  Time."  After  the  lecture.  Professor  Rice  spoke 
briefly  in  regard  to  the  localities  to  be  visited  on  the  following  day. 
Most  of  the  party  spent  the  night  at  the  Winthrop  Hotel  in  Meriden. 
On  Saturday'  the  party  proceeded  by  special  car  from  Meriden  to  West- 
field.  The  return  to  Meriden  was  made  partly  by  the  special  car  and 
partly  on  foot.  The  route  led  along  the  line  of  the  great  fault  between 
Higby  and  Lamentation  Mountains,  and  the  special  object  of  the  excur- 
sion was  the  study  of  the  phenomena  connected  with  that  fault.  The 
party  included  instriictors,  or  advanced  students,  or  both,  from  Amherst, 
Connecticut  Agricultural  College,  Harvard,  Massachusetts  Agricultural 
College,  Massachusetts  Institute  of  Technology,  Mount  Holyoke,  Smith, 
Trinity,  Tufts,  University  of  Vermont,  Wesleyan,  Williams,  Yale, 
Hartford  High  School,  and  Thompsonville  High  School. 

Physical  Examinations.  —  Over  eighty  men  have  been  examined 
for  football  and  track.  Of  this  number  only  five  have  been  refused 
permission  to  engage  in  athletics  because  of  their  physical  condition. 
Most  of  the  freshmen  have  been  examined  and  thus  far  the  present 
freshman  class  is  far  above  the  average  of  last  year  not  only  in  height 
and  weight  but  in  general  physical  efficiency  as  shown  by  carefiil  medical 
examination. 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  35 

INTRA-MURAL  Sports. — As  a  result  of  the  inter-class  and  inter- 
fraternity  games,  202  men,  exclusive  of  'varsity  men,  took  part  in 
athletics  last  year.  Sixty  men  engaged  in  football,  125  in  basketball, 
and  about  the  same  number  in  baseball.  In  track  and  tennis  not  the 
same  interest  was  shown.  This  year  an  even  greater  ni;niber  of  men 
should  find  opportunity  to  take  part  in  these  activities. 

Debate. — Trials  for  the  annual  triangular  league  contest  with  Amherst 
and  Williams  have  been  held,  and  the  following  men  have  been  chosen 
for  the  affirmative:  Rice,  '13,  Raymond,  '14,  with  Sick  els,  '14,  as  alternate; 
for  the  negative:  Cornish,  '14,  Willoughby,  '15,  with  Hancock,  '13,  as 
alternate.  The  question  is  the  recall  of  the  state  judiciary.  The 
affirmative  team  will  debate  at  home  and  the  negative  team  will  go  to 
Williamstown.  Wesle3'an  has  already  secured  one  leg  on  the  triangular 
league  cup,  and  it  is  hoped  that  the  team  this  year  may  go  one  step 
farther  towards  securing  the  three  successive  victories  which  would 
bring  the  cup  permanently  to  Wesleyan.  The  debates  will  be  held  on 
December  13. 

No  definite  plans  have  yet  been  made  for  the  spring  debate.  For  the 
past  three  years  debates  have  been  held  with  both  Bowdoin  and  New 
York  University,  but  whether  this  agreement  will  be  contini;ed  has 
not  yet  been  definitely  decided.  The  following  officers  of  the  Debating 
Council  were  elected  at  the  annual  June  meeting:  Rice,  '13,  president; 
,  S.  W.  Murphy,  '13,  manager,  and  Abraham,  '14,  assistant  manager. 

The  debate  between  the  sophomores  and  freshmen  will  be  held  on 
December  3,  on  the  question  stated  above.  For  the  sophomores, 
A.  I.  Prince,  Richmond,  and  Warren,  with  Alleman  as  alternate,  will 
uphold  the  affirmative  of  the  question  against  Cass,  Horton,  and 
Stevenson,  with  Freeman  as  alternate,  for  the  freshmen. 

Laboratory  of  the  State  Board  of  Health. — The  seventh  year 
of  this  laboratory,  which  is  under  the  directorship  of  Professor  Conn, 
closed  October  i .  During  the  last  year  it  has  made  examination  and 
analj-sis  of  11,000  specimens,  mostly  for  the  diagnosis  of  contagious 
diseases.  There  have  been  over  4,000  samples  of  milk  analysed,  and 
about  500  samples  of  water  and  sewage.  About  400  specimens  of  the 
blood  of  animals  suspected  of  glanders  have  been  forwarded  to  the 
laboratory  for  diagnosis  in  the  last  year. 

College  Machinist. — The  L'niversity  is  fortunate  in  having  so 
expert  a  machinist  as  Mr.  F.  H.  Newton,  who  has  been  in  its  employ 
since  1895  and  has  constructed  many  important  scientific  instruments, 
be.sides  repairing    apparatus  which  must  otherwise  have   been  sent  to 


36  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

Germany  at  great  expense  and  with  great  delay.  In  1905-6  he  con- 
structed for  Professor  Cady  two  magnetic  recording  instruments  for  the 
department  of  terrestrial  magnetism  of  the  Carnegie  Institution;  one  of 
which  is  now  on  Mount  Wilson,  California,  the  other  at  Wesleyan. 
From  Professor  Cady's  drawings  he  also  constructed  a  curve-drawing 
machine.  The  liquefiers  designed  by  Professor  Bradley  for  his  experi- 
ments in  the  liquefaction  of  gases,  and  installed  at  Harvard  and  Yale, 
as  well  as  at  Wesleyan,  were  constructed  by  Mr.  Newton,  as  were  also 
the  delicate  instruments  designed  by  Professor  Dodge  for  his  research 
work  in  psychology,  and  the  more  recently  designed  apparatus  for  the 
investigations  in  which  Professor  Dodge  is  cooperating  with  Doctor 
Benedict,  Director  of  the  Nutrition  Laboratory  of  the  Carnegie 
Institution. 

Phi  Beta  Kappa. — At  a  meeting  of  the  society  held  on  November  26 
the  following  members  of  191 3  were  elected  to  membership:  Paul  Burt 
of  Buffalo,  New  York;  Eugene  Shepard  Clark  of  New  London;  John 
Adams  Eldridge  of  Washington,  District  of  Columbia;  Winfred  King 
Petigrue  of  Oswego,  New  York;  Lloyd  Preston  Rice  of  Granby;  Veo 
Fuller  Small  of  Farmington,  Maine;  Robert  Foster  Volentine  of 
Brooklyn,  New  York;  William  Colcord  Woods  of  Orono,  Maine.

Professor  Conn. — In  October  Professor  Conn  attended  a  meeting 
of  the  National  Commission  of  Milk  Standards,  of  which  he  is  a  member. 
This  commission,  appointed  to  determine  standards  of  milk  and  of  dairy 
methods,  has  held  several  meetings  in  the  last  two  years,  and  has  pub- 
lished a  report  of  its  conclusions  as  a  Bulletin  of  the  Marine  Hospital 
Service.  The  last  meeting,  held  in  Chicago,  was  for  the  purpose  of 
allowing  the  milk  dealers  of  this  country  and  Canada  to  present  to  the 
commission  their  side  of  the  milk  problems  which  have  been  before  the 
commission. 

Professor  Harrington. — Professor  Harrington  is  spending  his 
sabbatical  year  in  Europe.  He  left  early  in  July  with  his  family  and 
will  return  late  in  the  summer  of  1913.  He  has  already  visited  England, 
Switzerland,  and  Austria,  and  spent  the  month  of  November  in  Berlin. 
After  visiting  several  places  of  archaeological  interest  and  several 
centers  of  learning,  he  will  spend  the  winter  in  study  and  investigation 
chiefly  at  Rome  and  in  its  vicinity. 

Professor  HeideIv. — Professor  Heidel  was  a  delegate  from  Connecti- 
cut to  the  convention  of  the  Progressive  party,  held  in  Chicago,  August 
5-7,  and  was  a  member  of  the  committee  on  rules. 

Professor  Dodge. — At  the  beginning  of  the  year  the  Nutrition 
Laboratory  of  the  Carnegie  Institution  appointed  Professor  Dodge  its 
consulting  experimental  psychologist.  This  appointment  opens  un- 
usual opportunities  for  scientific  work.  The  nutrition  laboratory  wished 
to  use  the  tests  of  neuro-muscular  efficiency  that  have  been  elaborated 
at  the  Wesleyan  laboratory  of  psychology;  and  Professor  Dodge  ex- 
pects that  his  investigations  in  psj'cho-dynamics  will  be  materially 
advanced  by  the  collaboration.  Under  his  direction  a  special  equipment 
of  approved  apparatus  is  being  installed  at  the  nutrition  laboratory,  in- 
cluding a  complete  set  of  the  apparatiis  that  has  been  developed  at  the 
Wesleyan  psychological  laboratory. 

Professor  Fife. — In  April,  1912,  Professor  Fife  was  appointed  one 
of  seven  trustees  of  the  Montclair  Academy,  which  has  been  chartered 
as  a  pviblic  and  permanent  educational  foundation  under  the  laws  of 
New  Jersey.  In  July,  191 2,  he  was  appointed  bj-  Governor  Baldwin  to 
fill  a  vacancy  on  the  board  of  trustees  of  the  Connecticut  State  Hospital 
for  the  Insane  at  Middletown.

ber of  public  readings  in  the  west  in  the  course  of  the  siinimer. 

Meetings  Attended. — A  report  of  important  meetings  attended  by 
members  of  the  faculty  will  appear  in  the  May  Bulletin. 


CHRISTIAN  ASSOCIATION 

The  work  of  the  Christian  Association  began  very  auspiciously  with 
the  opening  reception  to  the  freshman  class,  at  which  about  three  hun- 
dred men  were  present.  For  foiir  days,  October  7-10,  Mr.  E.  C.  Mercer 
was  the  guest  of  the  Association  and  of  the  L^niversity.  He  delivered 
three  public  addresses  on  "Notable  Athletes,"  "Purity,"  and  "The 
Story  of  My  Life."  In  these,  as  in  his  talks  to  the  various  fraternity 
groups  and  the  Commons  Club,  he  did  a  great  positive  work  in  strength- 
ening the  character  of  the  college  life  as  a  whole  and  exercised  a  deep 
influence  on  individuals.  The  unanimous  and  hearty  welcome  accorded 
him,  together  with  the  large  attendance  at  his  meetings,  prove  the  grip 
he  secured  on  the  students. 

The  social  service  work  planned  by  the  Association  under  the  direction 
of  Mr.  Fred  H.  Rindge,  of  New  York,  industrial  secretary  of  the  Inter- 
national Committee  of  the  Young  Men's  Christian  Association,  is  already 
under  way.  Easton,  '13,  and  his  committee  have  started  classes  for  the 
teaching  of  English  to  foreign  speaking  men  and  classes  in  ci\dcs  and 
history  for  the  more  advanced.  Four  or  five  classes  are  already  in 
operation.  At  present  more  teachers  are  available  than  there  are  classes 
for  them  to  teach,  but  the  city  Young  Men's  Christian  Association  has 
promised  to  forward  this  work  and  open  further  opportunities  for 
service.  Several  men  are  engaged  in  boys'  club  activities  and  in 
neighborhood  work. 

The  tenth  annual  Connecticut  Valley  Student  Missionary  Conference 
was  entertained  by  Amherst  College  on  October  26  and  27.  Twelve 
representatives  of  Wesleyan  were  in  attendance.  There  have  been 
three  additions  to  the  Student  Volunteer  Band. 


UNDERGRADUATE  NOTES

No-Deai.  Agreement.  The  agreement  entered  into  last  year  by  the 
students,  pledging  them  not  to  participate  in  any  "deal  "  for  the  election 
of  any  candidate  to  any  office  in  their  gift,  has  been  renewed  for  another 
year. 

Maine  Ci^ub.  There  has  recently  been  established  a  club  of  a  type 
which  may  be  destined  to  supplant  the  moribund  preparatory  school 
clubs  in  the  work  of  attracting  students  to  Wesleyan.  About  thirty 
students  from  Maine  have  organized  a  Maine  Club  to  bring  Wesleyan 
more  prominently  before  the  preparatory  schools  of  that  state.  There 
is  an  important  work  for  such  clubs  to  perform  and  it  is  to  be  hoped 
that  this  organization  may  prove  a  success  and  may  lead  to  the  formation 
of  similar  clubs  representing  other  states.  The  officers  of  the  Maine 
Club  are:  President,  Small, 'ly,  Vice-Prestde;it,  Goodwin, 'i/[;  Secretary- 
Treasiirer,  Thurrell,  '14. 

Beta  Theta  Pi  Fraternity  House.  The  Wesleyan  chapter  of 
Beta  Theta  Pi  has  received  a  gift  of  twenty  thousand  dollars  from 
William  Raimond  Baird,  of  New  York  City,  well  known  as  the  author 
of  American  College  Fraternities.  The  gift  is  to  be  used  for  a  chapter 
house  in  memory  of  his  son,  Raimond  Diiy  Baird,  '09,  who  died  in  19 11. 
For  years  the  chapter  has  owned  a  lot  on  the  north  corner  of  High  and 
Church  streets  and  early  next  spring  the  building  will  be  started.  It 
will  be  a  fireproof  structure,  three  stories  in  height,  and  it  is  hoped  it 
will  be  ready  for  occupancy  by  the  autumn  of  1913.  Ground  was 
formally  broken  on  November  i. 

Non-ParTisan  Rallies.  The  College  Body  has  held  a  series  of 
three  non-partisan  meetings  at  which  the  principles  of  each  of  the  three 
leading  political  parties  of  the  present  campaign  were  set  forth  by 
exponents  of  those  parties.  The  object  of  these  meetings  has  not  been 
primarily  to  further  the  cause  of  the  parties  represented,  but  for  the 
information  of  the  students.  The  first  of  these  meetings  was  held  on 
October  21  and  was  addressed  by  Professors  Heidel  and  Hewitt  and  by 
Bernard  S.  Van  Renssalaer,  secretary  of  the  Progressive  organization 
of  the  State  of  Connecticut.  On  October  24  was  held  the  Democratic 
meeting  which  was  addressed  by  Professor  Fife,  Charles  Collard  Adams, 
'59,  and  Congressman  Henry  De  Lamar  Clayton,  chairman  of  the 
judiciary  committee  of  the  House  of  Representatives.  The  Republican 
meeting  was  held  on  October  29  and  the  speakers  were  Professor  Rice, 
Honorable  Frank  Bentley  Weeks,  LL.  D.,  and  Honorable  William  B.

THE  SECOND  MILLION 

When  the  committee  of  the  board  of  trustees,  which  conducted  so 
successfully  the  campaign  for  the  first  million,  first  met  to  consider  its 
problem,  it  realized  that  a  million  for  new  endowment  would  need  to  be 
followed  by  a  second  million  for  material  equipment.  The  first  cam- 
paign has  closed,  the  second  has  begun.  /;/  the  iminediate  future, 
cei'tain  buildiugs  must  be  erected,  equipped,  and  specially  endowed. 

Those  alumni  and  friends  of  Weslej^an  who  are  not  already  con- 
tributing to  the  first  million  are  asked  to  consider  the  needs  for  the 
second  million,  much  of  which  must  go  into  buildings  and  equipment. 
Wesleyan  needs  new  friends  and  generous.  Every  Wesleyan  man  can 
help  President  Shanklin  and  the  trustees  to  win  such  friends. 


THE  LIBRARY 

The  most  notable  growth  within  the  LTniversity  in  recent  years  has 
been  that  of  the  librarj-,  but,  strangely  enough,  nowhere  has  the 
development  been  so  inadequate.     The  library  is  the  very  heart  of  the 


4  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

University,  and  every  department  relies  upon  it  for  life.  For  many 
departments  it  is  the  only  laboratory.  The  needs  are  most  pressing, 
and  their  immediate  relief  is  vital  to  the  welfare  of  the  University  as 
a  whole  and  of  ever}-  department.  The  nature  and  extent  of  these 
needs  may  be  recapitulated: 

I.  Building. — There  must  be  a  new  building  with  an  ample,  well- 
lighted  reading  room,  a  periodical  room,  an  exhibition  room,  a  lecture 
room,  several  seminary  rooms,  offices,  cataloguing  and  work  rooms,  a 
bindery,  stacks  with  shelving  for  200,000  volumes,  and  commodious 
vaults  for  rare  books.  The  building  should  be  so  designed  that  both 
the  reading  room  and  the  stacks  could  be  extended  easily  and  inex- 
pensively, without  violence  to  the  architectural  beauty  of  the  structure. 

Rich  Hall,  the  present  building,  was  completed  forty-five  years  ago  to 
accommodate  80,000  volumes,  and  with  little  consideration  of  the  mauy 
purposes  which  a  library  must  fulfil  to-day.  It  has  been  outgrown  for 
several  years,  and  it  can  be  used  only  at  serious  loss  to  both  students 
and  staff  in  efficiency  and  economy. 

Rich  Hall  is  not  fireproof  .  One  hundred  thousand  dollars  -would  not 
replace  the  collections.     The  continuance  of  such  a  fire  risk  is  indefensible. 

II.  Books.  —  Recent  statistics  show  Wesleyan  thirty-fifth  among 
five  hundred  colleges  listed  in  regard  to  number  of  volumes  in  the 
library.  IVesleyan  should  at  once  take  and  hold  rank  among  the  first 
tzvcniy.  The  number  of  volumes  has  increased  from  17,000  when  Rich 
Hall  was  completed  in  1868,  to  39,000  in  iSgi  when  Mr.  James  became 
librarian,  and  to  93,000  at  present  report.  The  number  should  be  increased 
to  200,000  ivithin  five  years.  Wesleyan  does  not  need  a  vast  general 
collection,  but  it  does  need  extensive  and  highly  specialized  collections 
in  every  field  in  which  the  institution  offers  instruction,  and  a  fair 
collection  of  works  of  general  interest.  Wesleyan  should  give  to  her 
facultv  and  students  facilities  equal  to  the  best  in  the  fields  in  ichich 
they  li'ork.  The  immediate  need  is  for  the  completion  of  the  files  of 
the  most  important  periodicals,  and  the  completion  or  acquisition  of  the 
great  serial  publications.     The  price  of  such  books  has  doubled  within 


WKSLKYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  5 

ten  years  and  will  probably  double  again  within  ten  years.  In  fact,  ten 
years  hence  it  will  be  absolutely  impossible  to  get  sets  of  many  of  the 
works,  for  they  will  all  be  held  by  public  and  college  libraries.  Wesleyan 
must  buy  the  great  series  noiv  or  go  zvithout  t/ieiii.  In  several  depart- 
ments the  present  collections  need  prompt  and  liberal  extension  in 
order  to  keep  pace  with  the  demands  of  instruction.  For  works  of 
general  interest,  there  are  daily  demands  which  cannot  now  be  supplied. 

III.  Endowment. — Endowment  is  needed  to  provide  for  the  repair 
and  maintenance  of  the  building,  for  an  adequate  staff,  and  for  the  pur- 
chase of  books.  The  first  two  of  these  needs  are  obvious.  In  regard  to 
the  third,  the  needs  are  for  purchasing  the  current  periodicals  and  con- 
tinuations of  series,  for  the  purchase  of  new  piiblications,  and  for 
gradvially  bu3'ing  older  books  as  demands  arise  and  opportunities  offer. 
The  endowment  has  grown  from  1118,792  in  1891  to  $100,269.79  at  present 
report,  and  yielded  last  A-ear  an  income  of  1^4,833.96.  This  income  is 
available  solely  for  book  purchases,  but  the  endowrnent  funds  for  book 
purchases  should  be  so  increased  as  to  yield  an  income  of  $10,000  a  year. 

IV.  Staff. — The  test  of  the  value  of  the  library  is  the  use  of  it. 
No  record  is  kept  of  the  largest  use  of  the  library,  that  by  the  readers 
in  the  building  and  in  seminary  rooms.  Figures  are  available  for  the 
outside  circulation,  which  amounted  to  4,926  volumes  in  1906-07,  and  to 
10,248  volumes  in  1912-13,  an  increase  of  108  per  cent.  During  the 
same  period  the  number  of  students  increased  25  per  cent,  from  328  to 
410,  and  the  number  of  volumes  in  the  library  23  per  cent,  from  75,500 
to  93,000.  Obviously  these  factors  only  partially  explain  the  notable 
growth  in  circulation. 

The  instructors  are  demanding  a  steadily  increasing  use  of  the  library 
by  their  students.  The  efficient  use  of  a  library  is  an  art  which  most 
students  have  not  yet  acquired,  and  so  they  must  rely  largely  upon  the 
staff  of  the  library  for  guidance.  The  permanent  staff  of  the  library 
has  been  increased  from  two  in  1906-07  to  four  in  the  present  year,  so 
that  it  has  been  possible  to  give  more  assistance  to  students  in  reference 
work.     A  college  library  demands  college  graduates  for  its  service,  and 


6  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

such  liigli  grade  assistants  are  not  nunieroiis,  and  command  good 
salaries.  It  is  not  sufficiently  realized  how  valuably  and  successfully 
such  assistants  in  reference  work  can  supplement  the  class-room 
instruction  by  the  individual  attention  which  they  give  to  each  student. 
They  are  instructors  in  the  most  difficult  and  complex  laboratory  work, 
the  work  with  books.  The  fullest  usefulness  of  the  library  as  an  aid 
to  instruction  depends  upon  an  adequate,  trained,  and  experienced  staff. 


Chemistry  Laboratory. — Another  building  need  of  urgent  import- 
ance is  a  chemistry  laboratory.  Perhaps  no  one  department  has  con- 
tributed more  to  the  renown  of  Wesleyan  than  has  its  department  of 
chemistr}',  and  yet  for  years  no  department  has  been  working  under 
such  serious  disadvantages  with  regard  to  room  and  equipment.  The 
department  of  biology  is  working  under  a  handicap  onlj'  less  serious. 
The  erection  of  a  new  library  building  and  of  a  special  building  for 
the  department  of  chemistry,  will  open  the  opportunity  for  the  remodel- 
ing of  the  interiors  of  Judd  Hall  and  Rich  Hall,  one  of  which  can  be 
adapted  to  the  uses  of  the  department  of  biology,  and  the  other  can  be 
reconstructed  as  a  fireproof  building  for  the  valuable  museum  collections 
which  are  now  exposed  to  a  serious  fire  risk. 

New  Dormitory. — Already  every  room  in  North  College  is  rented 
for  next  3'ear,  and  many  of  the  other  available  rooms  in  college  build- 
ings are  also  taken.  It  is  most  unfortunate  that  a  new  dormitory  cannot 
be  ready  for  occupancy  in  the  autumn.  Necessary  steps  are  being  taken 
to  secure  satisfactory  temporary  quarters  which  may  be  used  by  students 
during  the  coming  year.  Care  will  be  taken  to  give  the  best  possible 
accommodations  to  every  student  who  comes  next  year.  From  $wo,ooo 
to  $150,000  is  required  at  once  to  assure  the  beginnitig  of  work  on  the 
much  needed  new  dormitory  at  the  earliest  possible  moment. 

The  Campus. — The  main  Campus,  the  quadrangle  between  High  and 
Mount  Vernon,  Cross  and  Wyllys  Streets,  should  have  a  suitable  fence 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  7 

with  appropriate  gateways,  similar  to  those  at  Harvard  and  Brown. 
Different  classes,  as  at  Brown,  might  erect  sections  as  class  memorials. 
New  campus  walks  are  greatly  needed  to  replace  the  outworn  ones, 
many  of  which  are  not  properly  located  to  meet  the  present  traffic 
demands.  Citizens  of  Middletown  feel  that  inasmuch  as  the  University 
pays  no  local  taxes,  it  should  make  the  campus  a  real  ornament  to  the 
city.  Year  by  year  better  care  is  being  taken,  but  shrubs  shoiild  be 
planted  and  flower  beds  laid  out.  A  more  beautiful  campus  would  be  a 
valuable  asset  to  the  University. 

Tuition  Scholarships. — Wesleyan  University  has  been  very  gener- 
ous through  the  years  in  granting  tuition  scholarships  to  students  who 
have  needed  financial  assistance.  Last  year  the  amount  of  such  relief 
granted  was  $ii,575,  and  the  average  for  a  considerable  term  of  years  has 
been  close  to  that  figure.  This  amount  last  3^ear  represented  the  income 
from  $236,950  of  endowment  funds,  in  addition  to  |3,743  income  from 
$135,905  of  scholarship  endowment  funds,  of  which  one-half  had  been 
given  within  the  year.  vShould  the  endowment  of  scholarship  funds  be 
increased  to  meet  the  apparent  needs,  or  should  the  amount  of  relief 
granted  be  scaled  down  to  the  income  of  the  funds  specifically  given  for 
the  purpose? 

Involved  in  this  matter  is  the  question  of  honor  on  the  part  of 
students  and  of  their  parents  or  guardians  in  seeking  assistance  from  the 
income  of  trust  funds.  There  has  been  some  failure  to  realize  that 
an  exemption  from  the  payment  of  ninety  dollars  for  tuition  involved 
more  than  the  cancelling  of  an  obligation;  it  diverted  from  the  use 
of  the  University  for  other  purposes,  or  from  the  aid  of  some  more 
needy  student,  the  income  from  |i,8oo  of  the  endowment  funds.  The 
trustees  and  the  President  in  the  disbursing  of  this  tuition  aid  w-ish 
to  make  this  fact  fvilly  realized,  for  they  believe  that  often  through 
thoughtlessness  tuition  scholarships  have  been  sought  by  students  and 
their  parents  whose  sense  of  honor  would  not  permit  them  for  a  moment 
to  accept  such  aid  if  they  realized  the  facts.  During  recent  weeks  this 
matter  has  been  tactfully  laid    before  leading  undergraduates  and  by 


8  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

them  before  their  respective  society  groups,  and  the  indications  are 
most  gratifying  that  a  higher  sense  of  honor  will  hereafter  obtain. 

Many  of  Weslej'an's  students  most  thoroughly  and  genuinel}-  need 
not  only  as  much  assistance  as  they  have  been  receiving  but  even  more. 
To  the  truly  deserving  the  University  wishes  to  give  heartily  and  gener- 
ously, and  in  such  a  way  that  the  recipients  may  feel  no  embarrassment 
in  seeking  and  receiving  aid  which  they  merit.  Occasionally,  in  the 
past,  students  of  a  sensitive  nature  have  asked  that  they  be  allowed  to 
give  a  note  for  the  amount  of  aid  advanced.  Henceforth  each  student 
asking  aid  will  be  offered  the  alternative  of  receiving  the  aid  as  a  loan 
or  as  a  gift.  In  case  of  a  loan,  it  will  probably  be  covered  by  a  non- 
interest-bearing  note  due  a  certain  number  of  years  after  graduation. 

It  is  also  the  feeling  of  the  administration  that  not  onh^  should  the 
assistance  be  given  to  those  whose  need  is  greatest,  biit  that  preference 
should  be  given  to  those  students  who  maintain  the  better  records  in 
scholarship,  as  being  those  most  worthy  of  aid  from  trust  funds. 

Experimental  Psychologists. — The  tenth  annual  meeting  of  the 
Experimental  Psychologists  was  held  in  the  Psychological  Laboratory 
of  Wesleyan  University  in  April.  The  almost  insurmountable  difficul- 
ties of  entertainment  in  Middletown  make  it  a  rare  privilege  for 
Wesleyan  to  entertain  one  of  the  learned  societies.  Professor  Dodge  is 
to  be  highly  congratulated  for  liis  courage  in  undertaking  to  meet  the 
difficulties  involved  and  for  the  splendid  success  of  the  gathering.  The 
presence  of  such  a  group  of  scholars  in  the  Universit}-  for  a  few  daj's  is 
a  stimulus.  It  is  also  a  distinct  benefit  to  the  University  that  members 
of  other  college  faculties  should  come  to  know  the  University  with  its 
faculty  and  students  at  home,  and  to  learn  in  the  laboratories  them- 
selves the  extent  and  value  of  the  research  work  which  is  being  done 
here. 

Alumni. — Commencement  at  Wesleyan  still  comes  but  once  a  year. 
The  alumnus  may  come  back  to  his  alma  mater  oftener,  but  he  must 
come    for    Commencement,    for    that    is    the    time    when    every    other 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  9 

alumnus  comes  and  is  looking  to  see  him.  Commencement  week  is  old 
home  week  every  year.  If  you  like  the  way  the  place  is  being  run, 
come  back  and  encourage  those  who  are  doing  the  hard  work.  If  you 
disapprove  or  are  doubtful  about  the  way  affairs  are  handled,  come  back 
and  get  first-hand  information.  When  you  were  an  imdergraduate  you 
knew  how  much  confidence  to  place  in  newspaper  reports  and  outside 
gossip  about  the  University,  because  you  had  first-hand  information. 
Perhaps  first-hand  information  may  still  be  desirable  about  the  old 
home — at  any  rate,  you  have  a  life  interest  in  it,  for  it  is  your  old 
home. 

The  alumni  council  promises  to  make  the  annual  meeting  of  the 
alumni  association  interesting  enough  to  make  it  worth  attending. 
This  alumni  council  is  something  new,  and  is  so  full  of  ideas  that  it  is 
really  looking  for  au}-  additional  ideas  you  may  have.  It  is  already 
doing  something,  and  before  long,  it  expects  to  be  doing  a  great  deal 
for  the  solid  upbuilding  of  the  University.  Ideas,  information  must 
come  first.  So  the  question  arises  how  to  diffuse  information  among 
the  alumni  about  the  University  and  its  activities.  Every  alumnus 
receives  the  Catalogue  and  the  Bulletin,  and  a  few  are  said  to  read  a 
little  in  them.  Do  they  pay  for  the  cost  of  printing  and  distribution  ? 
The  alumni  council  suggests  that  hereafter  the  Catalogue  shall  be  sent 
only  to  those  alumni  who  ask  to  have  their  names  placed  on  the  mailing 
list.  Five  hundred  alumni  take  the  Argus.  Is  it  a  satisfactory  source 
of  information  and  a  proper  organ  for  alumni  matters?  Can  it  be  im- 
proved or  can  any  adjustments  be  made  to  make  it  satisfactory  and 
could  it  be  arranged  to  have  the  Argus  reach  each  of  the  two  thousand 
living  graduates?     Or,  is  there  need  for  some  special  alumni  publication? 

Judge  Reynolds. — The  sudden  death  on  Janiiary  23  of  the  Honorable 
George  Greenwood  Reynolds,  LL.D.,  '41,  removed  not  only  the  oldest 
surviving  gradixate  of  the  L^niversity  but  also  a  valuable  friend  and 
helper  who  had  served  forty  years  as  a  member  of  the  board  of  trustees, 
of  which  he  had  been  president  from  1887  to  1903.  Though  he  had 
already  given  frequently  and  generously  to  the  endowment  and  support 
of  the  LTniversity,  he  was  one  of  the  two  most  liberal  subscribers  to  the 


lO  WESIvEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

million  dollar  endowment  fund  which  was  completed  last  year.  Judge 
Reynolds  was  the  last  surviving  graduate  who  was  a  student  in  the 
University  under  the  administration  of  its  first  president,  Willbur  Fisk. 
His  wisdom  and  experience  will  be  missed  from  the  councils  of  the 
University,  and  his  venerable  and  genial  presence  from  the  gatherings 
of  the  alumni  in  New  York  and  from  the  more  important  functions  of 
the  academic  year  in  Middletown. 

Oldest  Alumnus. — The  Reverend  Micah  Jones  Talbot,  D.  D.,  '43,  is 
now  the  oldest  surviving  alumnus  of  the  University.  Though  academic- 
ally two  }-ears  the  junior  of  the  late  Judge  Reynolds,  he  is  but  a  few 
days  younger,  having  been  born  on  P'ebruary  25,  1821,  at  East  Machias, 
Maine.  His  life  has  been  spent  almost  entirely  in  pastoral  and  educa- 
tional work  within  the  territory  of  the  New  England  Southern  Confer- 
ence of  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church.  He  has  served  a  brief  term 
as  a  trustee  of  the  University,  from  1880  to  18S1.  He  makes  his  home 
with  his  son,  Emory,  of  the  class  of  1874,  in  Dorchester,  Massachusetts, 
and  he  was  one  of  the  speakers  at  the  annual  banquet  of  the  alumni  in 
Boston  in  February. 

Student  Finances. — The  students  are  at  present  showing  a  com- 
mendable spirit  with  regard  to  the  conduct  of  the  financial  side  of  their 
organizations.  There  is  a  feeling  that  undergraduate  organizations 
which  appeal  to  the  whole  college  body  or  to  a  whole  class  for  support 
should  be  above  the  suspicion  of  being  conducted  for  the  pecuniary 
advantage  of  any  individual,  and  that  -all  funds  of  such  organizations 
should  be  carefully  accounted  for,  duly  audited,  and  all  proceeds 
administered  for  the  welfare  of  the  undergraduate  body  as  a  whole. 
It  is  sincerelv  to  be  hoped  that  plans  which  are  now  under  considera- 
tion will  be  successfully  worked  out.  College  students  should  maintain 
a  higher  ethical  standard  than  obtains  in  the  world  at  large.  It  should 
be  the  invariable  rule  that  every  student  organization  and  every  indi- 
vidual student  close  each  college  year  free  from  any  financial  obliga- 
tion to  the  business  men  of  Middletown.  Parents  and  alumni  can 
wield  a  heljjful  influence  to  this  end. 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  II 

Student  Social  Life. — Every  member  of  the  faculty  welcomes  a 
reasonable  attention  by  the  students  to  social  life  and  its  amenities. 
Some  students  do  not  profit  enough  from  such  distraction.  On  the 
other  hand,  the  multiplication  of  social  functions,  and  their  increasing 
expense  during  recent  }-ears,  is  becoming  a  serious  problem  in  under- 
graduate life.  Undue  attention,  not  to  athletics,  but  to  society  is 
responsible  for  the  most  serious  dissipation  of  student  energies  to-day 
and  for  the  majority  of  the  failures  in  college  work.  The  parents  and 
the  alumni,  rather  than  the  faculty,  must  deal  with  this  problem. 

Responsibility  of  the  Alumni. — Each  alumnus,  when  he  comes 
back  at  Commencement,  should  inquire  diligentl}-  into  the  affairs  of  the 
fraternity,  societ}-,  club,  or  other  undergraduate  organization  with 
which  he  was  associated  in  his  student  days.  If  their  record  during  the 
recent  past  has  been  such  that  you  are  proud  of  it,  give  praise  and  com- 
mendation where  it  is  due.  If  such  is  not  the  record,  get  together  with 
some  of  the  other  alumni  of  your  organization,  take  the  present  under- 
graduates into  council,  advise  them  wisely,  form  a  committee  to  guide 
and  assist  them  in  the  coming  year,  so  that  a  jear  hence  the  record 
shall  be  one  to  which  you  can  point  with  pride.  Then  keep  up  the 
good  work.  You  will  find  a  hearty  response  among  the  present  tinder- 
graduates  to  an  appeal  to  maintain  the  highest  standards,  but  they 
need  your  help,  and  will  appreciate  it,  if  you  give  it  in  the  right  spirit. 


TRUSTEE  MEETING 

An  adjourned  meeting  of  the  board  of  trustees  was  held  at  the 
Manhattan  Hotel,  New  York  City,  on  Monday,  April  14,  1913,  at  3:40  p.  M. 

J.  W.  Hewitt,  L.  A.  Howland,  and  Edgar  Fauver,  were  advanced  to 
professorships  in  their  respective  departments.  The  following  associate 
professors  were  reappointed  for  1913-14:  B.  H.  Camp,  D.  D.  Whitney, 
Durant  Drake,  R.  R.  Renshaw.  Walter  R.  Miles  was  appointed 
associate  professor  of  p.sychology  and  Carey  H.  Conle}',  associate 
professor  of  rhetoric  for  1913-14.  Paul  Curts,  L.  B.  Gillet,  and  Albert 
Mann,    Jr.,    were   appointed   associate    professors   in   the    departments 


12  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

of  German,  English  literature,  and  romance  languages,  respectively. 
The  following  instructors  were  reappointed  for  1913-14:  J.  K.  Laniond, 
H.  Lee  Ward,  J.  P.  Senning,  E.  B.  Gowin,  and  J.  W.  Wetzel.  Miss 
Edith  L.  Eastman  was  reappointed  assistant  librarian. 

The  committee  on  board  of  instruction  was  given  power  to  fill  the 
vacancy  in  the  department  of  economics  and  to  appoint  an  assistant  to 
Doctor  Fauver.  The  committee  on  grounds  and  buildings  was  given 
power  to  let  contracts  and  to  proceed  with  the  erection  of  the  swimming 
pool  addition  to  the  gymnasium  as  soon  as  subscriptions  are  secured 
sufficient  to  cover  the  amount  of  the  contracts.  The  Alumni  Athletic 
Association  were  permitted  without  cost  to  the  University  to  build  eight 
tennis  courts,  more  or  less,  on  the  southeast  corner  of  the  Foss  House 
property. 

In  accordance  with  the  report  of  the  committee  on  honorary  degrees, 
it  was  voted  to  confer  certain  honorary  degrees  to  be  announced  later. 

Notice  was  given  of  the  proposal  to  amend  the  by-laws  so  as  to  enlarge 
by-law  6  concerning  the  library  committee;  to  enlarge  the  powers  of  the 
committee  on  the  board  of  instruction;  to  provide  for  the  committee  on 
grounds  and  buildings  in  the  standing  committees;  to  make  the  presi- 
dent of  the  board  of  trustees  a  member  of  the  committee  on  board  of 
instruction;  and  to  give  the  committees  the  power  to  fill  vacancies  arising 
during  the  year. 

It  was  announced  that  G.  H.  Bickford,  '91,  had  been  elected  trustee  to 
represent  the  Vermont  Conference,  and  C.  A.  Hadley,  "99,  to  represent 
the  Northern  New  York  Conference. 

Professor  Raymond  Dodge  was  granted  leave  of  absence  for  next  year.

fessor Nicolson,  editor  of  the  Alumni  Record. 

6.     REI..A.TIVES 

Of  the  graduates  of  Wesleyan  one  hundred  and  thirteen  are  sons  or 
daughters  of  a  graduate;  twenty-five  others  who  are  sons  or  daughters 
of  a  graduate  have  a  brother  or  a  sister  also  a  graduate.  Seven  others, 
sons  or  daughters  of  a  graduate,  have  a  brother  or  a  sister  who  is  a  non- 
graduate.     There  are  five  cases  of  three  brothers  or  sisters  who  are  the 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  1 3 

children  of  a  graduate;  one  case  of  two  in  a  family  who  graduated  and 
one  who  did  not  graduate  being  the  children  of  a  graduate;  two  cases  of 
four  children  of  a  graduate,  three  of  whom  graduated  and  one  did  not; 
and  one  case  of  four  children  of  a  graduate,  all  themselves  graduates  of 
the  University.  There  is  one  graduate,  the  son  of  a  graduate,  who  had 
five  brothers,  non-graduates.  Five  of  the  graduates  are  grandsons  of  a 
graduate,  and  two  are  granddaughters  of  a  graduate.  Two  are  grand- 
sons of  a  non-graduate,  and  one  the  granddaughter  of  a  non-graduate. 
Eight  of  the  graduates  are  sons  and  grandsons  of  graduates.  One  is  a 
brother  of  a  non-graduate  in  addition  to  being  both  the  son  and  grand- 
son of  a  graduate,  and  there  are  three  brothers  who  are  sons  of  a  gradu- 
ate and  grandsons  of  a  graduate.  One  hundred  and  twenty-nine  of  the 
graduates  have  either  a  brother  or  a  sister  who  is  a  non-graduate.  One 
hundred  and  eighty  of  the  graduates  have  either  a  brother  or  a  sister 
who  is  a  graduate.  There  are  twenty-seven  cases  of  three  brothers  or 
sisters  in  a  family  who  all  graduated,  and  four  cases  of  four  brothers  or 
sisters  who  are  all  graduates.  There  are  twenty-one  cases  of  three 
brothers  or  sisters,  two  of  whom  graduated  and  one  of  whom  is  a  non- 
graduate;  five  cases  of  four  brothers  or  sisters,  three  graduates  and  one 
non-graduate;  one  case  of  five  brothers  or  sisters,  three  of  whom  grad- 
uated and  two  are  non-graduates;  one  case  of  four  brothers  or  sisters, 
two  graduates  and  two  non-graduates;  and  one  case  of  six  brothers,  all 
graduates  but  one,  who  is  a  non-graduate.  Sixteen  of  the  graduates  are 
sons  or  daughters  of  a  non-graduate,  in  one  case  there  being  two  in  the 
family  and  another  case  three,  all  graduates. 

7.      AGE   AT   DEATH 

It  is  possible  to  give  the  average  age  at  death  for  the  first  decade,  as 
all  the  graduates  of  that  period  are  dead.  The  average  age  at  death  was 
65.37  years.  The  oldest  reached  the  age  of  96.25  years;  the  youngest 
died  at  the  age  of  20  j'ears.

*  Owing  to  intermarriage  of  men  and  women  graduates  of  Wesleyan,  a  number  of 
the  children  of  women  graduates  are  included  also  in  the  children  of  men  graduates, 
as  follows:  1871-'80,  eight;  1881-'90,  ten;  1891-1900,  forty-two:  19ul-'10.  ten. 


The  total  number  of  children  of  men  graduates  of  Wesleyan  to  date  is 
4,672,  2,436  boys  and  2,236  girls,  an  average  to  the  family  of  2.42.  The 
total  number  of  children  of  women  graduates  who  have  married  is  129, 
62  boys  and  67  girls,  an  average  to  each  married  woman  of  1.34.  On 
account  of  the  large  families  in  the  early  days,  when  there  were  no  women 
graduates,  the  comparison  should,  however,  be  made  between  men  and 
women  of  the  same  graduating  classes.  The  average  number  of 
children  of  the  married  men  in  the  same  classes  as  the  women  is  1.7  as 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  1 5 

compared  with  1.34  for  the  women.  The  total  number  of  children  of 
Wesleyan  alumni,  men  and  women,  excluding  duplicates,  is  4,731.  Of 
these  1,076  have  been  reported  dead. 


ALUMNI  COUNCIL 


A  meeting  of  the  Alunmi  Council  was  held  in  the  Alumni  room,  East 
Hall,  at  10:45  A.  M.  on  February  22,  with  sixteen  members  present  and 
Carrington,  '76,  in  the  chair.  Reports  were  presented  from  the  secre- 
tary and  from  the  chairmen  of  the  executive  committee  and  of  the 
following  other  committees:  finance,  class  records  and  organization, 
publicity,  preparatory  schools,  alumni  associations,  undergraduate 
activities,  and  constitutional  amendments. 

The  secretary  recommended  a  special  Alunmi  Day  and  was  directed 
to  endeavor  to  make  February  22  such  a  day.  With  North,  '97,  and 
Bishop,  '05,  he  was  appointed  to  confer  with  the  college  authorities 
regarding  the  variovis  problems  involved. 

The  recommendations  of  Bodine,  '06,  and  Douglass,  '08,  of  the  finance 
committee  were  referred  to  the  whole  committee  for  a  future  report. 
It  was  decided  to  refrain  for  the  present  from  any  general  or  aggressive 
financial  campaign.  A  voluntary  contribution  of  one  hundred  dollars 
from  Hubbard,  '92,  was  placed  in  the  custody  of  the  finance  committee. 

The  committee  on  undergraduate  activities  recommended  the  exten- 
sion to  other  undergraduate  activities  of  some  system  of  auditing 
similar  to  that  now  used  in  the  case  of  athletics.  It  was  unanimously 
voted  to  recommend  that  henceforth  the  annual  catalogue  be  sent  only 
to  those  alumni  who,  upon  inquiry,  express  the  desire  to  receive  it. 

Pending  the  action  of  the  classes  concerned,  the  following  men  were 
named  to  fill  vacancies  in  the  council:  Maynard,  '83;  Hubbard,  '92; 
Davison,  '98;  W.  W.  Miller,  '12.     The  meeting  adjourned  at  1:15  p.m. 

The  committees  of  the  council  for  the  year  1912-13  are  as  follows: 

Executive  Committee.— darrin^ton,  '76,  Chairman;  Jones, '81;  Tinker,

ALUMNI  NOTES 

Report  of  the  Ai^umni  Secretary. — The  report  of  W.  F.  Sheldon, 
'99,  Alumni  Secretary,  submitted  to  the  Alumni  Council  February  22, 
1913,  is  a  document  of  no  little  interest.  It  gives  an  account  of  his 
varied  activities,  assistance  rendered  to  President  Shanklin  in  the  clos- 
ing days  of  the  endowment  campaign,  following  up  inquiries  from 
prospective  students,  and  publicity  work. 

With  his  definite  appointment  as  Alumni  Secretary  on  November  2, 
191 2,  he  began  work  more  specifically  with  and  for  the  alumni.  He 
was  provided  with  an  office  in  Room  2,  East  Hall,  and  with  a  stenog- 
rapher. For  the  study  of  other  alumni  organizations,  he  visited  Prince- 
ton and  Yale.  He  has  visited  numeroiis  preparatorj-  schools,  making  it 
his  policy  to  approach  them  through  Wesleyan  alumni.  He  has  been 
largely  instrumental  in  the  rejuvenation  of  the  Tilton  Club  and  the 
formation  of  the  Maine  Club  and  hopes  to  organize  other  school  and 
geographical  groups.  Such  pamphlets  as  that  containing  Professor 
Winchester's  address  at  the  banquet  of  the  New  York  Alumni,  he 
intends  to  circulate  not  only  among  alunmi  and  friends  of  the  Universit}- 
but  among  the  parents  of  prospective  students  and  among  teachers  in 
preparatory  schools. 

He  has  visited  a  large  number  of  alumni  associations — at  New  York, 
Boston,  Philadelphia,  Washington,  Albany,  Newark,  Syracuse,  Wilkes- 
Barre,  and  a  meeting  of  the  New  Hampshire  alumni  at  Somersworth.  He 
has  arranged  a  series  of  Wesleyan  rallies  at  the  sessions  of  the  several 
patronizing  conferences.  At  Waterbury  a  new  association  has  been 
organized  for  work  in  the  Naugatuck   Valley.     An  alumni  banquet  in 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  1 7 

honor  of  the  football  team  was  arranged  and  brought  to  a  very  suc- 
cessful conclusion  at  the  Hartford  Golf  Club.  On  January  20,  1913,  a 
memorial  service  in  honor  of  Professor  Van  Vleck  was  held  at  150  Fifth 
Avenue,  New  York  City.  President  Shanklin  and  Professor  Rice 
addressed  the  meeting,  and  several  others,  including  the  late  George 
Greenwood  Reynolds,  LL.D.,  spoke  more  informally. 

Several  circular  letters  have  been  sent  from  the  secretary's  office  to 
members  of  various  classes;  in  certain  cases  the  Ai'gtis  has  been  made 
the  vehicle  of  a  special  communication  and  was  sent  to  each  member 
of  the  classes  concerned.  The  paid  advertisements  of  the  University 
are  now  placed  through  his  office  and  the  last  election  of  alumni 
trustees  was  managed  there. 

The  Secretary  has  submitted  to  the  Council  three  recommendations: 
First,  that,  in  view  of  the  increasing  tendency  to  make  the  sub-fresh- 
men the  prominent  feature  of  the  Washington's  Birthday  celebration,  a 
distinctively  alumni  day  be  instituted  to  occur  some  time  in  the  college 
year;  second,  an  alumni  alcove  in  the  library,  and  a  permanent  exhibit 
of  Wesleyan  literature  from  the  beginning  of  the  institution;  third,  a 
medium  of  communication  between  the  University  and  the  alumni, 
more  satisfactory  than  anj'  at  present  in  existence.

Many  of  the  smaller  exhibition  cases  have  been  repainted  and  re- 
arranged and  a  special  exhibit  has  been  made  of  uncut  tourmaline  gem 
stones  from  Haddam  Neck  and  Portland. 


20  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

The  reclassification  of  the  herbarium  by  Mr.  C.  H.  Bissell  of  vSoiithing- 
toa  and  Mr.  C.  A.  Weatherby  of  East  Hartford  has  been  completed. 
They  have  also  reclassified  and  placed  in  the  herbarium  many  hundred 
specimens  of  the  Joseph  Barratt  collection,  which  has  been  in  storage 
since  the  museum  came  into  possession  of  it  many  years  ago. 


SWIMMING   POOL 
The  plans  for  the  swimming  pool  are  practically  completed  and  it  is 
hoped  that  work  will   begin  on  its  construction  early  in  June.      The 
building,  eighty-eight  feet  long,  will  be  added  to  the  east  end  of  the 
gymnasium,  and  will  correspond  with  it  in  exterior  architecture. 


•fTff 


1^*   '•;©      a 


The  pool  itself  will  be  on  a  level  with  the  floor  of  the  present  base- 
ment and  will  be  entered  from  the  gymnasium.  It  will  be  seventy- 
five  feet  long  and  twenty-five  feet  wide,  will  be  lined  with  white  tile 
with  lanes  in  the  bottom  marked  in  blue,  and  will  be  equipped  with  a 
terra-cotta  life  rail  and  gutter  with  markings  showing  depth  and 
distances.  The  walls  and  the  walk  around  the  pool  will  be  of  white 
cement.  The  pool  will  be  ten  feet  deep  at  the  east  end  and  four  feet 
at  the  west  end.  It  will  be  surrounded  on  three  sides  by  a  gallerj-, 
entered  from  the  main  floor  of  the  gymnasium.  It  will  be  lighted  by 
large  windows  at  the  east  end  and  a  large  light  well  from  the  skylight 
at  the  west  end.  Artificial  lighting  will  be  furnished  by  a  system  of 
reflected  light. 

The  running  track  will  be  extended  from  the  gymnasium  through  the 
new  building  and  will  be  nine  feet  wide  and  well  banked.  This  will 
give  a  sixty  3'ard  straightaway  and  a  track  of  eleven  laps  to  the  mile. 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  21 

No  padding  will  be  used  on  it,  so  that  spiked  shoes  may  be  worn  by 
those  training  for  relay  races.  Inside  the  track  will  be  two  full-sized, 
officiall)^  constructed  courts  for  squash  or  handball.  These  will  be 
lighted  from  the  skylight. 

Provision  is  made  for  a  system  of  refiltering  and  for  a  pool  that  will 
be  sanitary  in  every  way.  The  shower  bath  and  toilet  rooms  in  the 
gymnasium  will  be  thoroughly  renovated,  new  floors  will  be  laid,  and  a 
wainscoting  of  white  tile  will  be  put  in.  The  room  now  used  as  a  dress- 
ing-room for  the  faculty  will  be  remodeled  as  a  dressing-room  for  visit- 
ing teams.  It  will  be  fitted  with  showers,  toilets,  etc.,  and  will  be 
greatly  enlarged  by  the  removal  of  partitions.  The  inner  office  of  the 
director  will  be  enlarged  by  the  elimination  of  the  closet  now  used  for 
the  storing  of  dishes,  and  will  be  brought  into  immediate  connection 
with  the  pool. 

A  partial  glass  partition  will  pass  through  the  hall  of  the  gymnasium, 
forming  a  vestibule  at  the  entrance,  the  doors  of  which  will  be  rehung  so 
as  to  swing  outward. 


DEPARTMENT   NOTES 

German. — The  department  has  acquired  by  purchase  in  the  past  year 
a  set  of  fortj'-five  lantern  slides  illustrating  Schiller's  life  and  works  and 
a  set  of  Rausch's  Phonetic  Charts  for  instruction  in  German  pronuncia- 
tion. By  nineteen  large  wall-charts  the  various  positions  of  the  lips, 
tongue,  etc.,  in  the  production  of  the  most  difficult  German  sounds  are 
shown. 

In  the  absence  of  Doctor  Paul  Curts,  for  three  years  instructor  in 
German,  his  place  has  been  taken  by  Doctor  Friedrich  Schoenemann, 
recently  of  Kottbus,  Prussia,  whose  studies  in  Berlin  and  Marburg  had 
brought  him  into  first-hand  acquaintance  with  current  tendencies  in 
German  literature  and  criticism.  Doctor  Schoenemann 's  work  has  been 
of  great  benefit  to  the  department  both  by  his  intimate  knowledge 
of  present-day  German  culture  and  his  successful  pedagogical  methods, 
joined  to  a  genial  personality.  His  departure  is  especially  regretted 
by  the  members  of  the  Deutsche  Verein,  where  he  has  been  of  great 
help. 

Romance  Languages. — Owing  to  the  absence  of  Professor  Kulins 
during  the  second  semester  of  next  year,  Course  V  in  French  and  Course 
I  in  Italian  will  be  omitted.  In  the  first  half-year  Courses  III  and  VI  in 
French  and  the  course  in  Dante  and  English  will  meet  twice  a  week  and 
Course  IV  in  French  three  times  a  week.

Economics  and  Social  vScience.— Mr.  Gowin  has  under  considera- 
tion a  plan  for  bringing  the  courses  in  sociolog)-  into  closer  relation  with 
the  local  agencies  for  social  work.  Each  year  for  some  time  past  the 
members  of  the  course  in  applied  sociology  have  been  visiting  the 
various  institutions  in  and  around  Middletown,  the  Connecticut  Indus- 
trial School  for  Girls,  the  Connecticut  Hospital  for  the  Insane,  the 
Connecticut  School  for  Boys  at  Meriden  and  the  State  Prison  at 
Wethersfield.  This  work  will  be  continued  as  heretofore,  but  it  is 
planned  to  increase  materially  the  amount  of  field  work  available  for 
students  in  this  course,  and  tiltimately  to  make  a  laboratory  stud}-  of 
the  local  situation.  This  will  afford  an  opportunity  not  only  to  acquire 
information,  but  also  to  do  useful  social  service. 

During  the  second  semester  the  courses  in  Economics  were  conducted 
by  Professors  Henry  Crosby  Emery  and  William  Bacon  Bailey  of  Yale 
University.  Each  took  charge  of  a  section  in  Course  I,  while  Professor 
Emery  continued  Course  II  in  economic  theory,  and  Professor  Bailey, 
Course  V  in  the  labor  problem.  The  work  of  Course  VIII,  economics 
seminary,  was  completed  under  the  supervision  of  Professor  Bailey. 

Philosophy. — As  noted  in  the  Bulletin,  the  plan  has  been  tried  this 
year  of  admitting  juniors  to  the  earlier  courses  in  modern  philosoph}'. 
The  experiment  has  proved  so  far  successful  that  it  will  be  continued, 
at  least  for  another  year.  In  1913-14  the  course  in  ancient  and  mediaeval 
philosophy  will  be  transferred  to  the  first  semester.  In  the  second  half- 
3-ear  it  will  be  followed  by  the  first  course  in  modern  philosophy.  Both 
courses  will  be  open,  under  certain  restrictions,  to  juniors.  Together 
they  will  bring  the  history  of  philosophy  down  to  about  1840,  leaving 
later  and  contemporary  thought  for  the  study  of  the  senior  year.  The 
senior  work  will  be  conducted  in  part  by  lectures,  in  part  hy  the  sem- 
inary method.  Further  details  will  be  given  in  the  Announcement  of 
Courses  for  1913-14. 

Psychology. — Professor  Dodge  has  been  granted  leave  of  absence 
without  pay  for  the  academic  year  1913-14  to  become  Experimental 
Psychologist  to  the  Nutrition  Laboratory  of  the  Carnegie  Institution. 
He  will  continue  his  research  in  the  fields  of  mental  work  and  mental 
fatigue  with  the  help  of  the  unique  facilities  afforded  by  that  institution, 
and  will  have  charge  of  the  tests  of  nervous  efficiency  in  a  sj-stematic 
investigation  of  the  mental  and  physical  effects  of  the  ingestion  of  small 
doses  of  ethyl  alcohol. 

During  the  absence  of  Professor  Dodge,  the  courses  in  psychology  will 
be  in  charge  of  Doctor  Walter  R.  Miles  of  the  University  of  Iowa. 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  23 

Mathematics. — Diiring  the  winter  Doctor  L,amond,  assisted  by  the 
class  in  Mathematics  IV,  made  an  accurate  survey  of  the  campus. 
From  this  survey  Doctor  Lamond  prepared  an  accurate  and  comprehen- 
sive map,  including  all  real  estate  in  Middletown  held  by  the  college 
and  also  that  held  by  the  various  fraternities.  Blue-prints  have  been 
made  from  this  map  for  the  use  of  the  committee  of  the  trustees  on 
grounds  and  buildings.  This  spring  a  further  survey  is  being  under- 
taken for  the  purpose  of  locating  the  system  of  drainage  and  steam  pipes. 
A  map  of  this  survey  will  be  prepared  for  the  use  of  the  superintendent 
of  grounds  and  buildings. 

Physics. — The  storage  battery  in  the  basement  of  the  Scott  Labor- 
atory has  been  thoroughly  overhauled,  and  many  of  the  old  cells  have 
been  replaced  by  new  ones.  A  magnetic  circuit  breaker  has  been  added 
to  the  circuit  for  charging  the  battery. 

Biology. — The  department  of  biology  has  recently  purchased  a 
projecting  lantern  for  use  in  large  classes.  This  lantern,  in  addition 
to  the  ordinary  projecting  apparatus,  has  an  arrangement  for  pro- 
jecting opaque  objects  and  pictures  from  books.  A  microscopic 
projecting  apparatus  makes  it  possible  to  dispense  with  the  use  of 
microscopes  in  large  classes.  The  opaque  projection  makes  it  possible 
to  exhibit  the  illustrations  with  which  biological  books  are  crowded. 
With  this  lantern  it  is  possible  to  handle  satisfactorily  the  larger  sections 
rendered  necessary  by  the  increase  in  the  size  of  the  classes. 


CHRISTIAN  ASSOCIATION 

Sixty  per  cent  of  the  men  in  college  are  enrolled  as  members  of 
the  Christian  Association.  Thirty-three  per  cent  are  active  members. 
Forty-one  men  are  preparing  for  the  Christian  ministry  and  four  for 
Christian  Association  work.  Bible  study  classes  with  an  aggregate 
attendance  of  from  forty  to  fifty  have  been  conducted  by  Professor 
Cady,  Doctor  Ward,  and  Mr.  Senning,  Mr.  IvOgee,  Chanter,  '14,  and 
S.  W.  Murphy,  '13. 

A  considerable  variety  of  outside  activity  has  been  carried  on.  Leaders 
have  been  furnished  for  thirteen  boys'  clubs,  one  of  them  composed 
entirely  of  Italians.  Evangelistic  teams  have  been  sent  out,  and  a 
qtiartette  has  visited  several  Middletown  institutions.  Neighborhood 
work  has  been  conducted  at  Newfield,at  Staddle  Hill,  and  at  the  Pacousett 
Sunday  School  in  Portland.  In  these  various  forms  of  unselfish  service 
over  sixty  men  have  been  engaged. 


24  WKSLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

In  the  spring  term  there  was  conducted  under  the  auspices  of  the 
Association  a  series  of  talks  on  the  choice  of  a  Hfe  work.  These  were 
given  by  men  of  some  prominence  in  the  fields  of  social  work,  associa- 
tion work,  foreign  missions,  the  ministry,  and  business,  as  follows: 
The  Choice  of  a  Life  Work,  by  Reverend  Charles  R.  Brown,  Dean  of 
the  Yale  Divinity  School;  The  Field  of  Association  Work,  by  Charles  D. 
Hurrey,  of  the  National  Committee  of  the  Young  Men's  Christian  Asso- 
ciation; The  Field  of  Social  Work,  by  Frederick  S.  Hall,  '93,  Associate 
Director  of  the  Charity  Organization  Department  of  the  Russell  Sage 
Foundation;  The  Field  in  Foreign  Countries,  by  Wilbert  B.  Smith, 
Candidate  Secretary  of  the  Student  Volunteer  Movement;  and  Business, 
its  Ideals  and  Opportunities,  by  Joseph  A.  Richards,  ex-'S3,  of  New 
York. 

The  officers  for  the  coming  year  are  President,  Chanter,  "14,  Vice- 
President,  Rowell,  '14,  Secretary,  Day,  '14;   Treasurer,  Willoughby,  '15. 

Mr.  Chanter,  requiring  onh-  a  few  hours  to  complete  his  work  for 
graduation,  will  have  full  charge  of  the  work  for  next  year,  and  no 
graduate  secretary  will  be  appointed. 


DEBATE 

The  debating  contests  this  year  were  only  moderately  successful,  as 
both  debates  resulted  in  a  tie,  the  home  teams  receiving  the  decision  in 
every  debate.  Wesleyan  defeated  Amherst  and  Bowdoin  but  lost  to 
Williams  and  Hamilton.  In  the  regular  triangular  league  contests 
with  Amherst  and  Williams  on  December  13,  the  question  was:  Resolved, 
that  state  judges  should  be  subject  to  recall  by  a  majority  vote  of  those 
voting  at  the  last  state  election.  In  each  case  the  home  team  upheld 
the  affirmative.  The  Wesleyan  team  which  defeated  Amherst  at 
Middletown  was  composed  of  Raymond,  '14,  Rice,  '13,  and  Sickels,  '14, 
as  alternate.  That  which  met  Williams  at  Williamstown  consisted  of 
Cornish,  '14,  Willoughby,  '15,  and  Hancock,  '13,  as  alternate.  The 
judges  at  Middletown  were  Professor  G.  A.  Kleene  of  Trinity,  Professor 
C.  W.  Gerstenberg  of  the  School  of  Commerce  of  New  York  University, 
and  Mr.  E.  W.  Christ  of  New  Britain;  those  at  Williamstown  were 
Professor  R.  C.  Gettell  of  Trinity,  Reverend  J.  P.  Jockinson  of  Union 
Theological  Senunary,  and  Reverend  H.  H.  Field  of  Brooklyn,  New 
York. 

In  the  seven  years  of  the  existence  of  this  triangular  debating  league, 
Wesleyan  is  the  onl}-  college  that  has  won  two  championships.  Wesleyan 
is  also  the  only  college  to  have  its  name  engraved  on  the  trophy  cup 
purchased  by  the  league  in  1909.     The  contests  in  1910  and  1912  resulted 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  25 

in  triple  ties,  while  Wesleyan  won  both  debates  in  191 1.  Consequently 
the  cup  has  never  left  Wesleyan  and  will  remain  here  until  won  by 
another  college. 

Instead  of  debating  New  York  University  and  Bowdoin  in  the  spring, 
as  has  been  the  custom  for  the  past  three  j^ears,  a  new  triangular 
debating  league  was  formed  by  a  two-year  agreement  with  Bowdoin  and 
Hamilton.  This  league,  it  is  hoped,  may  prove  a  permanent  arrangement 
for  the  spring  debates  similar  to  that  with  Amherst  and  Williams  in 
the  fall.  The  initial  contests  in  this  new  league  resulted  in  a  three- 
cornered  tie,  the  home  team  winning  in  every  case.  The  question 
debated  was:  Resolved,  that  the  present  high  cost  of  living  in  the 
United  States  would  be  materially  reduced  b)'  a  tariff  for  revenue  only. 
In  these  debates  also  the  home  teams  upheld  the  affirmative.  The  team 
which  debated  at  Middletown,  consisting  of  Dulany,  '14,  Hancock,  '13, 
Raymond,  '14,  with  Sturges,  '14,  as  alternate,  won  a  unanimous  decision 
from  Bowdoin.  The  judges  for  this  debate  -were  James  A.  Winans, 
Professor  of  Debate  at  Cornell  University,  Everett  J.  I^ake,  former 
lieutenant-governor  of  Connecticut,  and  Mr.  Ernest  Pelton  of  New 
Britain.  The  negative  team  which  lost  the  decision  at  Clinton  by  a  vote  of 
two  to  one,  was  composed  of  S.  W.  Murphy,  '13,  Rice,  '13,  and  Willoughby, 
'15,  with  R.  C.  Brown,  '14,  as  alternate.  The  judges  were  Judge  George 
B.  Turner  of  Auburn,  New  York,  Messrs.  Stoddard  M.  Stevens  of  Rome, 
New  York,  and  Charles  W.  Tooke  of  Syracuse,  New  York. 

The  freshman-sophomore  class  debate  was  won  by  the  sophomore 
team,  composed  of  Richmond,  Warren,  and  A.  I.  Prince,  with  Alleman  as 
alternate.  The  freshman  contestants  were  Horton,  Cass,  and  Stevenson, 
with  Freeman  as  alternate.  To  interest  more  men  in  the  class  debates 
and  give  more  men  this  preliminary  training  for  'varsity  debating,  the 
number  of  speakers  on  each  side  was  increased  this  year  from  two  to 
three.  Professor  Nicolson,  Mr.  Senning,  and  Mr.  Gowin  acted  as 
judges.  On  May  17  the  third  annual  debate  will  be  held  with  Brown 
freshmen.  The  question  to  be  debated  is:  Resolved,  that  it  should  be 
the  policy  of  the  Lhiited  States  to  decrease  its  naval  armament.  Reeves 
and  Freeman,  with  Cass  as  alternate  have  been  selected  to  represent 
the  Wesleyan  freshmen  and  they  will  uphold  the  affirmative  side  of  the 
question. 

The  Briggs  Prize  debate  was  held  on  March  6,  on  the  question  used 
in  the  spring  contest  of  the  triangular  league.  The  contestants  were 
Hancock,  '13,  S.  W.  Murphy,  '13,  Rice,  '13,  and  Raymond,  '14.  Mr. 
Gustaf  B.  Carlson,  Mr.  Richard  H.  Bunce,  and  Professor  Nicolson  acted 
as  judges,  and  awarded  the  prize  to  Hancock,  '13.

UNIVERSITY  NOTES 
New  Regulation. — In  accordance  with  the  policy  of  the  L'niversity 
to  advance  the  standard  of  scholarship,  the  faculty  has  adopted  a  regula- 
tion by  which  any  student  is  put  on  probation  and  becomes  ineligible 
to  represent  the  University  on  any  athletic,  musical,  or  dramatic  organ- 
ization, if  he  has  a  grade  below  fourth  in  seven  hours  of  work  at  the 
Thanksgiving  or  Easter  preliminary  reports,  or  if  at  the  end  of  the  first 
semester  he  is  deficient  in  seven  hours  of  work,  or  if  at  the  end  of  the 
year  he  is  deficient  in  seven  hours  for  the  second  semester  or  five  hours 
for  the  year.  If  a  student  already  on  probation  has  such  a  record  at  the 
end  of  the  first  or  the  second  semester,  he  is  dropped  from  college.  If 
a  student  not  already  on  probation  is  deficient  at  the  end  of  the  first 
semester  in  ten  hours,  or  at  the  end  of  the  second  semester  in  ten  hours 
for  the  second  semester  or  seven  hours  for  the  year,  he  is  dropped  from 
college.  There  are  definite  provisions  by  which  a  student  on  probation 
may  be  restored  to  normal  standifig  at  the  time  of  the  Thanksgiving  or 
Easter  reports,  of  the  midyear  or  the  final  examinations,  or  the  spring  or 
the  fall  special  examinations.

Guide  to  the  Insects  of  Connecticut,  prepared  under  the  direction  of 
Wilton  Everett  Britton,  Ph.D.,  State  Entomologist  and  Entomologist 
of  the  Connecticut  Agricultural  Experiment  Station.  Part  3,  The 
Hymenoptera  of  Connecticut,  by  Henry  Lorenz  Viereck,  with  collabora- 
tion of  several  other  specialists. 

During  the  past  two  years  most  of  the  appropriation  of  the  Survey 
has  been  applied  to  an  investigation  of  the  water  resources  of  the  state 
carried  on  in  cooperation  with  the  United  States  Geological  Survey. 
This  work  has  been  under  the  direction  of  Professor  Herbert  Ernest 
Gregor}'  of  Yale  University.  The  same  policy  is  to  be  continued  during 
the  ensuing  biennial  term. 

There  are,  however,  a  number  of  Bulletins  completed  or  in  progress 
on  various  geological,  botanical,  and  zoological  subjects  which  will  be 
edited  and  published  as  rapidl}-  as  practicable. 

Conference  of  Experimentai,  Psychologists.— The  Tenth  An- 
nual Conference  of  Experimental  Psychologists  was  held  on  April  10-12, 
in  the  Psychological  Laboratory  of  Wesle5'an  Universit}'.  The  confer- 
ence was  attended  by  thirty  delegates,  representing  the  following 
institutions:  Clark,  Columbia,  Cornell,  Dartmouth,  Harvard,  Johns 
Hopkins,  Pennsylvania,  Princeton,  Smith,  Tennessee,  Wesleyan,  Yale, 
McLean  Hospital,  New  Jersey  Training  School,  Teachers'  College  of 
New  York,  and  the  National  Electric  Lamp  Association. 

Reports  were  read  from  all  these  institutions  on  the  researches  actually 
in  progress,  and  on  those  planned  in  the  immediate  future.  Those  labora- 
tories which  had  been  in  charge  of  the  same  instructor  ever  since  these 
conferences  have  been  held  gave  resumes  of  the  work  of  the  decade. 

The  meetings  on  Thursday  were  devoted  to  notes  on  apparatus, 
reports,  and  a  demonstration  of  the  Wesleyan  apparatus.  On  Friday 
the  resumes  of  the  work  in  the  several  laboratories  were  read  and  there 
was  a  discussion  of  the  psychological  problems  demanding  investiga- 
tion in  the  immediate  future.  The  Saturday  morning  session  was 
devoted  to  the  theory  and  value  of  tests. 

The  only  public  exercise  of  the  session  was  the  lecture  by  Professor 
Hugo  Miinsterberg  of  Harvard,  which  was  delivered  in  Scott  Laboratory 
before  a  large  audience.  The  lecture  was  an  address  on  the  subject  of 
mind  reading,  masterly  not  only  for  its  contents  but  also  for  its  form. 
After  Professor  Miinsterberg's  lecture  there  was  an  informal  supper  at 
the  house  of  Professor  Dodge,  followed  by  a  smoker  in  the  laboratorj-. 
On  Friday  noon  the  University  entertained  the  conference  at  dinner  in 
Fisk  Hall.

tion of  the  hospitality  of  Wesleyan  and  of  the  intrinsic  vahie  of  the

Wesleyan's  laboratory  and  its  unique  apparatus  for  demonstration  and 
research.

UNDERGRADUATE  NOTES 
Wesi.eyan  Argus. — Certain  changes  have  been  made  in  the  appear- 
ance and  management  of  the  Argus.  Different  type  and  a  more  news- 
paper-like heading  have  afforded  increased  space  for  news.  In  place 
of  the  previous  somewhat  haphazard  system  of.  editing  by  which  each 
issue  was  practically  in  charge  of  one  of  the  associate  editors,  it  is  the 
new  policy  to  centralize  the  work  more  fully  and  increase  the  activity 
and  responsibility  of  the  editor-in-chief.  In  this  way  there  will  be 
better  facilities  for  obtaining  news  and  stricter  censorship  over  the 
matter  that  finds  its  way  into  the  columns  of  the  paper.  At  the  request 
of  the  Argus  board,  Jennings,  ex-'o3,  and  Sheldon,  '99,  have  been 
appointed  graduate  members  of  the  board,  by  the  executive  committee 
of  the  Alumni  Council. 

Omega  Phi. — Twelve  members  of  Omega  Phi,  a  local  fraternity, 
which  expects  to  be  received  into  a  national  fraternity  in  the  near 
future,  have  petitioned  the  Senate  for  official  recognition.  The  Senate 
voted  to  recommend  that  the  new  fraternity  be  recognized  by  the 
College  Body  during  the  cultivation  season  next  autumn. 

Intramural  Sports. — More  interest  than  last  j-ear  is  being  shown 
by  the  undergraduates  in  intramural  sports,  and  there  has  been  a  greater 
participation  in  them,  not  so  much  as  a  preparation  for  the  varsity 
teams,  as  for  the  sake  of  the  recreation,  the  improved  health,  and  the 
training  that  comes  from  such  activity.  In  basketball  a  schedule  of 
forty-three  games  was  played  and  one  hundred  and  ten  men  partici- 
pated, each  playing  in  from  one  to  fourteen  games.  There  was  also  a 
considerable  number  of  players  who  were  training  for  the  various 
teams.  The  Bosey  Reiter,  Jr.,  cup  was  won  for  the  third  time  by  the  class 
of  1 913,  which  thus  becomes  its  permanent  possessor.

TiLTON  Club.— The  organization  of  the  graduates  of  Tilton  Sem- 
inary is  showing  commendable  activity.  It  has  held  several  meetings 
and  has  been  in  consultation  with  the  alumni  secretary  regarding 
methods  that  have  proved  effective  in  bringing  the  University  to  the 
notice  of  students  in  preparatory  schools.  The  officers  are:  President, 
James  Stephen  Kelloni,  '14;  Secretary-Treasurer,  Harold  Rideout  Wil-

club,  an  orchestra  has  been  organized  under  the  leadership  of  Otto 
Carpenter,  '15.

T~HE  Bulletin  has  just  completed  its  twenty-fifth  year.  The  first 
*  number  appeared  in  January,  1888,  with  the  following  modest 
statement  of  plan  and  purpose:  "  It  seems  certain  that  there  are  many 
who  would  welcome,  from  time  to  time,  some  official  intelligence  from 
Wesleyan  University  beyond  what  can  pro]3erly  be  given  in  the  annual 
catalogue.  This  want  The  BuEtiiTiN  is  intended  to  supply.  It  makes 
no  pretension  to  give  a  formal  representation  of  the  condition  and  work 
of  the  college  in  all  its  departments.  It  is,  rather,  a  simple  budget  of 
college  news  which  may  afford  some  notion  of  what  is  doing  here  at 
the  present  moment,  and  of  how  it  is  done.  It  is  hoped,  furthermore, 
that  The  BuixETIn  may  not  only  give  such  glimpses  of  the  daily  work 
of  faculty  and  students  as  shall  indicate  the  pulse  of  intellectual  life  in 
college,  but  that  it  may  also  suggest  some  of  the  claims  and  some  of  the 
needs  of  Wesleyan  University-,  and  may  thus  help  to  secure  from  our 
alumni  and  friends  a  more  constant,  intelligent,  and  hearty  cooperation 
in  all  that  pertains  to  the  interest  of  the  college." 

This  important  service  it  is  believed  the  Bulletin  has  faithfully 
rendered.  Every  change  in  the  personnel  of  the  University,  every  modi- 
fication   of   its   curriculum,    every    enlargement    of    its    resources   and 


4  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

facilities,  has  been  recorded  here.  The  numbers  of  the  Bulletin,  taken 
together,  really  furnish  a  trustworthy  history  of  Wesleyan  for  the  last 
quarter  century. 

Nor  is  this  all.  It  is  interesting  to  note  that  when  the  first  number 
of  the  BiiUeiiii  appeared  the  faculty'  numbered  nineteen;  of  that  num- 
ber, only  six  are  now  in  service  here,  and  of  those  six  two  had  then  but 
just  entered  upon  their  duties,  both  in  subordinate  positions.  There 
were  but  190  students  in  college.  The  number  of  books  in  the  library 
was  "about  36,000";  the  amount  of  the  library  fund  was  only  $18,792. 
Indeed,  the  total  productive  endowment  funds  of  the  University  amounted 
to  only  $672,000.  It  is  certainly  not  unreasonable  to  suppose  that  the 
remarkable  growth  suggested  by  these  figures  has  been  due,  in  some 
measure,  to  the  constant  presentation  of  the  condition  and  needs  of  the 
college  in  almost  every  number  of  the  Bulletin  for  the  last  twenty-five 
years. 

In  the  earlier  years,  the  Bulletin  contained  occasional  unsigned 
articles  by  members  of  the  facult}',  on  topics  of  educational  interest. 
Among  such  papers  may  be  mentioned  one  or  two  on  the  study  of  his- 
tory b}'  Woodrow  Wilson.  But  as  the  work  of  the  University  widened  and 
its  interests  became  at  once  more  varied  and  more  urgent,  there  seemed 
no  space  available  for  such  discussions  without  abridging  unduly  that 
record  of  fact,  work,  and  need,  which  has  always  been  the  primary  pur- 
pose of  the  Bulletin. 

The  "Ancients  of  the  College." — Forty-five  }-ears  ago  this 
autumn  William  North  Rice  began  active  teaching  in  Wesleyan  Univer- 
sit}-  as  a  full  professor.  Forty  years  ago  Caleb  Thomas  Winchester 
entered  upon  his  full  professorship.  Morris  Barker  Crawford  is  serving 
his  thirtieth  year  as  a  full  professor.  Twenty-five  years  ago  Andrew 
Campbell  Armstrong  and  Herbert  William  Conn  became  full  professors. 
For  three  others,  William  Edward  Mead,  Walter  Parke  Bradley,  and  Oscar 
Kuhns,  this  fall  is  the  twentieth  anniversary  of  their  full  professorships. 

To  each  heartiest  greetings,  and  grateful  praise  for  the  years  of  in- 
spiring and  fruitful  teaching  !  For  each  best  wishes  for  many  added 
j'ears  of  usefulness  and  happiness  ! 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

And  we  all  praise  famous  men — 

Ancients  of  the  College; 
For  they  taught  us  common  sense^ 
Tried  to  teach  us  common  sense — 
Truth  and  God's  Own  Common  Sense 

Which  is  more  than  knowledge  ! 

This  we  learned  from  famous  men 

Knowing  not  its  uses 
When  they  showed  in  daily  work 
Man  must  finish  off  his  work — 
Right  or  wrong,  his  daily  work — 

And  without  excuses. 

This  we  learned  from  famous  men 

Teaching  in  our  borders. 
Who  declared  it  was  best, 
Safest,  easiest,  and  best — 
Expeditious,  wise,  and  best — 

To  obey  your  orders. 

This  we  learned  from  famous  men 

Knowing  not  we  learned  it. 
Only,  as  the  years  went  by — 
Lonely,  as  the  years  went  by — 
Far  from  help  as  years  went  by 
Plainer  we  discerned  it. 

Wherefore  praise  we  famous  men 

From  whose  bays  we  borrow — 
They  that  put  aside  To-day — 
All  the  joys  of  their  To-day — 
And  with  toil  of  their  To-day 
Boiight  for  us  To-morrow  ! 

Bless  and  praise  we  famous  men — 

Men  of  little  showing  ! 
For  their  work  continueth 
And  their  work  continueth 
Broad  and  deep  continueth 

Great  beyond  their  knowiug  !

6  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

New  Professors. — Four  men  are  entering  this  year  upon  their 
work  as  full  professors  in  Wesleyan  University.  Charles  Augustus 
Tuttle  comes  in  the  prime  of  life  to  the  chair  of  Economics  and 
Social  Science  from  years  of  service  in  Wabash  College.  Joseph 
William  Hewitt,  Edgar  Fauver,  and  Leroy  Albert  Rowland  have 
won  deserved  promotion  by  years  of  faithful  apprenticeship  in 
Wesleyan.  Professor  Hewitt  teaches  classics.  Doctor  Fauver  is 
the  first  person  to  be  appointed  professor  of  Physical  Education  in 
the  L^niversity.  Professor  Howland,  whose  department  is  mathematics, 
is  a  graduate  of  Wesleyan  in  the  class  of  1900,  and  is  the  onl}^ 
alumnus  since  Professor  Kuhns  of  the  class  of  1885  to  be  promoted 
to  a  full  professorship  in  his  Alma  Mater. 

Wesleyan  University  welcomes  these  men  to  her  staff  and  wishes 
for  them  the  fullest  measure  of  success  and  satisfaction  through 
the    future    years. 

Financial  Statement. — The  Financial  Statement  of  the  Uni- 
versity for  the  year  ending  June  30,  1913,  showed  an  increase  of 
$232,382.46  in  the  endowment  funds,  carrying  the  total  amount  of 
such  funds  to  12,046,532.27.  The  total  payments  to  the  new  endow- 
ment fund  of  a  million  dollars  up  to  June  30  amounted  to  1545,365.56. 
Subscriptions  to  this  fund  are  payable  up  to  June  30,  1916,  and  the 
contemplated  increases  and  improvements  can  be  undertaken  only  so 
fast  as  these  subscriptions  are  paid  and  have  begun  to  ^-ield  income. 
It  is  the  steadfast  purpose  of  the  board  of  trustees  to  administer  the 
University  within  its  income,  and  the  last  fiscal  year  was  closed  with 
a  small  surplus,  after  wiping  out  the  accumulated  deficit  of  past  years. 

New  Buildings. — The  extension  of  the  Fayerweather  Gymnasium 
to  include  a  swimming  pool  rapidly  approaches  completion.  The 
trustees  contemplate  the  erection  at  an  early  date  of  the  astronomical 
observatory  for  which  funds  are  already  available  through  the  gifts 
of  the  late  Joseph  Van  Vleck,  and  the  late  Professor  John  Monroe 
Van  Vleck.  Plans  are  being  studied,  with  the  assistance  of  an 
architect,    for    the    futiire    lay-out  of    the    campus   and    its    buildings. 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  7 

The  position  and  character  of  the  various  present  buildings  make 
somewhat  difficult  the  problem  of  securing  a  satisfactory  combination 
of  scenic  effect  with  convenience  in  relative  location  of  buildings. 

Trustee  Committees. — At  the  meeting  in  June  the  board  of 
trustees  enlarged  the  membership  and  extended  the  powers  of  the 
committee  on  buildings  and  grounds,  and  constituted  a  new  standing 
committee  on  increase  of  endowment  and  eqviipment,  with  twelve 
members.  Upon  the  members  of  these  two  committees  rests  the 
heavy  burden  of  providing  for  the  development  of  the  Wesleyan 
that  is  to  be.      They  expect  your  help. 

Those  Needs  and  that  Second  Mii^lion — The  increased  attend- 
ance this  year  has  made  increasingly  clear  the  imperative  need  of  a 
new  dormitory.  This  must  take  precedence  of  all  other  needs, 
loath  as  those  who  daily  experience  the  need  for  a  new  library 
and  a  new  chemistry  laboratory  are  to  concede  it.  President  Shanklin 
has  said  that  we  must  have  at  least  one  new  building  each  year  for 
five  years.  It  seems  to  him  and  to  the  rest  of  us  who  are  on  the 
ground  that  we  cannot  and  must  not  wait,  that  we  must  have  these 
three  buildings  at  once.  These  necessary  new  buildings,  with  the 
increase  of  the  staff  in  instruction  and  administration  which  must 
accompany  them,  will  impose  demands  for  considerable  additional 
endowment  even  beyond  that  now  in  sight.  Wesleyan  needs  liberal 
friends  and  needs  their  liberality  noiv. 

The  Registration. — In  the  issue  for  May,  1907,  the  Bulletin  urged 
that  the  time  had  come  to  increase  the  average  size  of  the  entering 
class  from  100  to  150.  This  year  for  the  first  time  the  entering  class 
numbers  150.  There  has  been  a  corresponding  increase  in  the  total 
attendance.  At  that  date  there  were  303  men  in  attendance;  this  year 
the  total  is  415.  The  editorial  referred  to  made  a  special  plea  for  a 
larger  number  of  students  from  beyond  the  immediate  territory  of 
New  England,  New  York,  New  Jersey,  and  Pennsylvania.  The  number 
from  outside  this  limited  area  has  been  trebled.  All  credit  to  every 
one  who  has  helped  to  accomplish  these  results. 


8  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

This  recent  growth  is  exceptional  among  the  New  England  colleges, 
and  sustained  effort  is  imperative  to  insure  future  entering  classes  of 
150,  which  should  mean  a  total  attendance  three  years  hence  of  approxi- 
mately 500. 

Requirements  for  Admission. — There  are  in  the  preparatory 
schools  to-day  150  likely  young  men  who  are  coming  to  Wesleyan  next 
September.  On  the  guidance  they  receive  and  on  the  work  they  do 
between  now  and  then  will  depend  whether  the}-  will  come  prepared  to 
enter  with  a  clear  record  free  from  conditions;  or  whether  they  will 
come  seeking,  or  even  demanding,  admission  with  one  or  more  condi- 
tions. The  freshman  year  is  the  hardest  college  year,  and  its  reqi;ire- 
nients  cannot  be  rightly  met  by  the  man  who  enters  handicapped.  "It 
is  worse  than  a  crime,  it  is  a  blunder,"  to  force  a  student  into  college 
before  he  is  adequately  prepared  to  do  college  work.  Every  one 
who  has  anything  to  do  with  a  young  man  who  is  preparing  to  enter 
Wesleyan  next  fall  is  urged  to  take  immediate  steps  to  see  that  he  is 
planning  his  work  rightly  to  meet  fully  the  requirements  for  admission 
at  Wesleyan,  which  are  substantially  identical  wdth  those  of  the  leading 
colleges  and  universities  throughout  the  country. 

The  Cost  of  an  Education. — Last  year  the  average  payment  per 
student  for  all  fees  was  $100.  Compared  with  this  the  single  item  of 
cost  for  salaries  was  at  the  rate  of  |200  per  student.  The  total  payments 
for  current  expenditures  were  three  times  the  total  receipts  from  the 
students  for  all  charges.  This  difference  between  the  cost  of  education 
and  the  payments  from  students  must  be  met  by  income  from  endow^- 
ment  funds.  Ever}-  student  should  realize  that  he  gets  from  the 
University  three  times  what  he  pays  for.  Because  every  student  is  thus 
the  beneficiary  of  trust  funds,  those  charged  with  the  administration  of 
the  University  are  determined  that  the  enjoyment  of  these  benefits  shall 
be  limited  to  those  who  by  character  and  scholarship  prove  themselves 
worthy.  This  is  the  practical  side  of  the  establishment  and  mainten- 
ance of  high  standards  at  Wesleyan  University. 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  9 

The  Value  of  a  College  Degree. — It  is,  no  doubt,  impossible 
to  nieastire  the  value  of  a  college  degree  in  terms  of  money,  but 
certain!}'  a  degree  does  have  a  cash  value  as  well  as  the  intangible 
"higher  value."  Like  every  other  commodity,  the  value  of  a  degree 
fluctuates  according  to  quality.  It  is  of  the  highest  interest  to  every 
holder  of  a  Weslej-an  degree  and  to  every  one  who  seeks  a  Wesleyan 
degree  that  its  value  should  never  depreciate,  but  rather  appreciate. 
It  is  only  as  each  candidate  faithfully  fulfils  not  merely  the  letter, 
but  also  the  spirit,  of  every  requirement  which  establishes  the  standard 
for  the  degree  that  he  will  realize  full  value  for  his  degree.  Some 
students,  some  parents,  and  even  some  ahimni  have  failed  to  take  this 
into  consideration  when  they  have  wished  the  faculty  to  strain  a  point 
in  their  favor,  or  in  favor  of  the   one  in  whom  they  were  interested. 

Scholarly  Rivalry. — Perhaps  no  longer  is  it  regarded  as  axiom- 
atic that  competition  is  the  life  of  trade,  and  for  years  it  has  been 
unpopular  to  countenance  competition  in  scholarship,  for  competition 
in  college  life  during  the  past  generation  has  been  too  largely  confined 
to  the  "student  activities."  The  tide  is  turning,  and  friendly  rivalry 
for  leadership  in  the  class-room  is  coming  back  into  fashion.  To 
encourage  this  tendency,  Frederic  Asbury  Jackson,  of  the  class  of 
1881,  has  presented  to  the  University  a  cup  to  be  awarded  annually 
to  that  fraternity  whose  members  have  maintained  the  highest  record 
in  their  studies.  Every  fraternity  has  avouched  its  appreciation  of 
Mr.  Jackson's  gift,  and  its  approval  of  the  end  sought.  This  is  the 
right  sort  of  stimulus  to  scholarly  rivalry,  for  it  is  not  an  offer  of  a 
monetary  inducement,  but  clearly  emphasizes  that  culture  itself  is 
the  valuable  thing,  and  the  laurel  crown  is  but  its  recognition. 

A.ssociATE  Professor  Renshaw.— After  six  years  of  efficient  ser- 
vice in  the  department  of  chemistry,  during  the  last  of  which  he  was 
the  acting  head  of  the  department  in  the  absence  of  Professor  Bradley, 
Associate  Professor  Renshaw  has  accepted  a  call  to  an  attractive  posi- 
tion in  the  Iowa  Agricultural  College  at  Ames.  Professor  Renshaw 
carries  with  him  the  best  wishes  of  many  friends  at  Wesleyan.

pended for  this  meeting,  the  following  amendments  to  the  by-laws 
were  adopted: 

Section  2  of  Chapter  II  was  amended  by  adding:  A  committee  on 
increase  of  endowment  and  equipment,  of  twelve  members,  two  of 
whom  shall  be,  ex  officio,  the  president  of  the  University  and  the  presi-

present  buildings,  the  lay-out  of  the  college  grounds,  and  all  matters 
naturally  connected  therewith;  their  authority  shall  be  limited  to  con- 
sideration and  report  to  the  board,  unless  matters  be  referred  with 
power;  they  may  temporarily  add  to  their  own  number  such  other 
persons  as  in  their  judgment  circumstances  may  seem  to  require. 

Section  9  of  Chapter  III  was  amended  by  adding:  This  committee 
shall  take  into  consideration  all  matters  relating  to  the  faculty  which 
may  be  referred  to  it  by  the  board  or  by  the  president  of  the  University,

Section  6  of  Chapter  III  was  amended  by  adding:  And  to  dispose  of

The  president  was  authorized  to  confer  the  degrees  of  Bachelor  of 
Arts,  Bachelor  of  Science,  Master  of  Arts,  and  Master  of  Science  upon 
certain  candidates  recommended  by  the  faculty. 

A  leave  of  absence  was  granted  Professor  Rice  for  two  or  three  weeks 
to  participate  in  a  geological  trip  to  Alaska. 

A  memorial  minute  concerning  G.  G.  Reynolds  was  read  by  the  sec- 
retary. The  budget  for  the  year  1913-1914  was  presented  by  the  presi- 
dent of  the  University  and  adopted  by  the  board.  It  was  directed  that 
when  future  budgets  are  prepared  there  shall  be  included  in  them  a 
comparison  (in  totals)  with  the  budget  of  the  previous  year.  It  was 
voted  to  increase  the  salaries  of  sixteen  full  professors  by  $250  a  year. 
An  appropriation  of  $200  was  authorized  for  the  American  School  at 
Athens. 

It  was  voted  that  the  committee  on  endowment  be  instructed  to 
locate  properly  all  funds  now  rightly  belonging  to  scholarship  endow- 
ment, and  that  the  total  sum  granted  for  student  aid  for  the  coming 
academic  year  shall  not  exceed  $16,000,  including  the  amount  received 
from  permanent  endowed  scholarships,  and  that  the  administration  be 
expected  to  keep  within  the  said  amount;  also  that,  as  far  as  practic- 
able, students  receiving  aid  be  requested  to  give  some  suitable  obliga- 
tion indicating  a  purpose  to  repay  funds  granted  in  aid. 

S.  H.  Olin  for  the  committee  on  buildings  and  grounds,  made  a 
verbal  report  stating  that  the  committee  had  consulted  with  Architect 


1 2  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

Henry  Bacon,  that  plans  had  been  approved  and  accepted  for  the  exten- 
sion of  the  gj-nmasiuni,  and  that  probably  the  contract  for  the  work 
would  be  promptly  awarded.  He  also  stated  that  the  committee  had 
consulted  with  the  architect  regarding  the  future  development  of  the 
grounds. 

The  executive  committee,  through  W.  U.  Pearne,  presented  a  report 
which  was  accepted;  the  acts  of  the  sub-committee  were  validated 
wherever  necessary. 

The  question  of  a  new  dormitorj-  was  referred  to  the  joint  committee 
on  finance  and  on  grounds  and  buildings  for  report  at  the  fall  meeting. 

The  members  of  the  faculty  were  requested  to  meet  with  the  board  at 
the  social  part  of  the  fall  meeting. 


An  adjourned  meeting  of  the  board  of  trustees  was  held  in  Fisk  Hall, 
Middletown,  Friday  evening,  October  24,  1913. 

After  a  dinner,  at  which  the  members  of  the  faculty  were  present, 
the  meeting  was  called  to  order  at  9:15  P.  M. ,  with  twenty-nine  trustees 
present. 

President  Shanklin  presented  an  oral  report  upon  the  condition  of  the 
affairs  of  the  college  at  the  opening  of  the  year,  making  comparisons 
with  previoiis  3-ears  and  with  other  institutions.  He  reported  the  resig- 
nation of  Associate  Professor  R.  R.  Renshaw,  of  the  department  of 
chemistry,  and  the  appointment  of  M.  L.  Crossley,  Ph.  D.,  as  Lecturer  in 
Chemistry  for  one  year,  which  was  ratified  by  the  board. 

The  financial  statement  of  the  University  for  the  year  19 12-13  was 
distributed  to  those  present.  The  treasurer  stated  orally  that  up  to 
October  23  the  amount  collected  on  the  million  dollar  endowment  was 
1:553,138,  including  payments  by  the  General  Education  Board. 

S.  H.  Olin,  for  the  committeeon  buildings  and  grounds,  exhibited  blue

showing  a  proposed  lay-out  for  the  future  development  of  the  college 
campus.

DEPARTMENT  NOTES 

Latin.— Among  the  photographs  collected  diiring  the  past  year  by 
Professor  Harrington  for  the  department  of  Latin  are  views  of  the 
arches  of  Titiis  and  Constantine,  of  the  Appian  Way,  and  of  the  Roman 
Campagna  and  the  Alban  mountains.  These,  together  with  a  Piranesi 
engraving  of  the  Circus  Maximus  and  several  reproductions  in  color  of 
ancient  frescoes  from  Rome  and  Pompeii,  have  been  framed  and  added 
to  the  group  of  pictures  already  hung  in  the  Latin  class  room.  Many 
smaller  photographs  and  other  pictures  from  Italy,  France,  and  Africa, 
and  a  considerable  number  of  lantern  slides,  have  also  been  added  to 
the  material  available  for  use  in  Latin  classes. 

Among  other  new  illustrative  material  may  be  mentioned  lamps  and 
other  antiquities  from  Carthage,  terracotta  figures  from  Selinunte  and 
from  the  Ponte  di  Nona  on  the  Via  Praenestina,  brickstamps  from 
Ferento  in  Etruria,  some  Roman  coins  of  the  republican  epoch,  frag- 
ments of  Etruscan  and  Latin  pottery,  and  decorative  marble  from  many 
sites. 

Besides  the  courses  that  would  normally  be  offered  this  year.  Course 
VIII  (Roman  Literature)  is  being  given  by  Profes.sor  Harrington,  who 
is  also  this  year  conducting  Course  VI  (advanced  Latin  composition). 

History.— Professor  Dutcher  is  giving  for  the  first  time  a  course  on 
European  History  prior  to  800,  which  is  intended  to  alternate  with  the 
course  on  European  History  from  800  to  1660.  The  new  course  includes 
a  brief  survey  of  the  history  of  Egypt,  Babylonia,  and  Assyria,  and  a 
fuller  stiidy  of  the  history  of  Greece  and  Rome,  of  the  rise  of  Christianity, 
and  of  the  first  eight  Christian  centuries.  The  course  is  intended  for 
advanced  students,  and  is  the  first  attempt  at  Wesleyan  to  give  a  general 
course  in  ancient  history. 

The  course  in  political  science,  as  offered  for  the  first  time  last  year, 
was  adjusted  to  meet  certain  temporary  demands.  This  year  changes 
have  been  made  to  give  the  course  what,  it  is  believed,  will  be  its  perma- 
nent character.  After  a  concrete  study  of  the  existing  governments  of 
the  United  States  and  of  the  more  important  European  countries,  a 
topical  study  of  the  theories  of  government  will  complete  the  course. 

Economics  and  Social  Science.— The  class  in  applied  sociology  is 
investigating  the  workings  of  the  attendance  law  in  the  Middletown 
public  schools,  especially  cases  of  non-attendance  between  the  ages  of 
fourteen  and  sixteen. 

Room  B  in  the  basement  of  Fisk  Hall  has  been  made  into  a  head- 
quarters for  all  the  work  in  sociology.     One  part  serves  as  an  office. 


WESIvEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  23 

another  part  as  a  seminary,  and  the  remainder  is  reserved  for  the  lecture 
courses.  This  arrangement  will  also  furnish  excellent  quarters  for  the 
course  in  statistics  which  is  to  be  offered  in  the  department  for  the  first 
time  this  year. 

Mathematics. — An  engineer's  dumpy  level  and  a  polar  planimeter, 
both  made  by  the  Keuffel  and  Esser  Company,  have  been  added  to  the 
equipment  of  the  department.  The  department  has  also  received,  as  a 
gift  from  the  Eugene  Dietzgen  Company,  two  large,  framed,  cross 
sectional  drawings  of  surveying  instruments. 

Physics. — Recent  purchases  for  the  physical  laboratory  include  a 
vibration  galvanometer  of  the  Rubens  type,  made  by  Oehmke  in 
Berlin. 

A  wireless  telegraph  aerial  for  general  experimental  purposes  and  for 
use  in  connection  with  Course  X  is  being  erected  by  students  in  the 
department,  extending  from  a  forty-foot  mast  on  top  of  the  labora- 
tory to  a  shorter  mast  on  the  roof  of  Judd  Hall. 

Professor  Cady  has  received  a  communication  from  the  committee  of 
radiotelegraphic  investigations  of  the  British  Association  for  the  Ad- 
vancement of  Science,  requesting  his  participation  in  an  investigation 
of  the  effects  of  the  atmosphere  on  wireless  transmission.  An  extensive 
plan  for  international  cooperation  will  soon  be  inaugurated.  In  common 
with  certain  other  laboratories  and  wireless  stations,  the  new  receiving 
apparatus  at  the  Scott  I^aboratory  will  be  used  for  this  purpose. 

Chemistry. — Shortly  before  the  opening  of  the  present  college  year. 
Professor  Renshaw,  who  had  been  connected  with  the  department  for 
six  years,  and  had  served  as  acting  head  of  the  department  during  the 
year  1912-13,  was  called  to  an  excellent  position  at  Iowa  State  College 
of  Agricultural  and  Mechanical  Arts  as  Assistant  Professor  of  Organic 
Chemistry.  Through  his  removal,  the  department  has  lost  an  enthusi- 
astic and  successful  instructor  and  investigator.  Fortunately,  though 
the  time  was  short,  an  able  successor  was  secured  in  the  person  of  Doctor 
Moses  Leverock  Crossley  (Ph.  D.  Brown,  191 1).  Some  account  of  Doctor 
Crossley's  academic  career  is  given  elsewhere  in  this  Bullettn. 

Mr.  Clinton  Bedford  Ogilvie  (B.  A.  Clark  College,  1913),  holds  the 
position  of  Assistant  in  Chemistry,  succeeding  Mr.  Robert  Reed  Stevens, 
who  served  two  years  in  that  capacity. 

With  the  return  of  Professor  Bradley  from  his  leave  of  absence,  the 
courses  which  were  omitted  last  year  are  resumed. 

Two  minor  changes  in  the  requirements  in  physiological  chemistry 
may  be  noted.       Course  XII  (lectures)  is  elective,    with  permission  of 


24  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

the  instructor,  for  those  who  have  taken,  or  are  taking,  Course  VI. 
Course  XIII  (laboratory)  is  elective,  with  permission  of  the  instructor, 
for  those  who  have  taken  Courses  III  and  VII,  and  who  have  taken,  or 
are  taking,  Course  XII. 

A  number  of  important  pieces  of  apparatus  have  been  secured  for  the 
course  in  physical  chemistry,  including  a  thermostat  and  an  apparatus 
for  the  determination  of  the  conductivity  of  electrolytes,  the  electro- 
motive force  of  cells,  the  relative  migration  velocities  of  ions,  etc. 
One  of  the  three  weekl}-  lectures  in  this  course  will  occasionally  be 
replaced  by  a  practicum,  in  order  to  familiarize  the  student  with 
methods  of  physicochemical  measurement. 

Physicai,  Education. — Thus  far  the  work  of  the  department  has 
been  carried  on  under  adverse  conditions,  owing  to  the  fact  that  many 
of  the  changes  in  the  gymnasium  building  necessitated  by  the  addition 
of  the  swimming  pool  are  not  }-et  completed.  The  lack  of  hot  water  has 
compelled  the  athletic  teams  to  use  the  large  storeroom  in  the  south  end 
of  the  basement  of  North  College  as  their  dressing  room. 

The  department  begins  its  work  with  two  assistants.  Mr.  E.  S.  Hall 
comes  from  the  International  Y.  M.  C.  A.  College  at  Springfield,  Massa- 
chusetts, and  is  giving  his  full  time  to  the.  work  of  the  department. 
In  addition  to  rendering  assistance  in  the  physical  examinations,  he  has 
had  full  charge  of  the  freshman  squad  in  football  and  has  assisted  in  the 
required  track  work.  Mr.  F.  E.  Stevens  enters  as  a  freshman  from 
Mount  Hermon  School,  where  he  was  instructor  in  boxing  for  four  years. 
He  gives  one  hour  a  day  to  the  work  of  the  department  and  also  is  giv- 
ing a  number  of  students  private  lessons  in  boxing  and  fencing.  Mr. 
Hunter,  who  has  coached  the  track  teams  for  the  past  six  years,  is  here 
throughout  the  year  in  the  capacity  of  trainer  and  coach.  His  presence 
will  be  an  additional  incentive  to  our  athletic  teams  to  maintain  a  high 
standard  of  training. 

Several  changes  have  been  made  in  the  amount  and  quality  of  the 
work  required  of  the  freshmen,  who  are  now  required  to  join  some 
squad  in  tennis,  baseball,  football,  or  track,  from  October  i  to  Novem- 
ber lo.  Attendance  is  kept  and  the  work  is  required  three  days  a  week. 
From  November  lo  until  cold  weather,  all  freshmen  are  required  to 
engage  in  soccer  football.  From  then  the  work  will  be  carried  on  in  the 
gymnasium,  but  will  include,  in  addition  to  g3-mnastics,  instruction  in 
boxing,  swimming,  basketball,  handball,  and  squash. 

A  course  in  physical  education  is  offered,  elective  for  seniors  and 
juniors.       This  consists  of   three  hours  per   week  of  practice  the  first 


WESLEY  AN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  25 

semester  and  three  hours  of  lectures  the  second  semester.  It  is  intended 
to  meet  the  needs  of  many  of  the  students  who  engage  in  teaching 
and  are  required  to  give  instruction  in  gymnastics  and  athletics. 


UNIVERSITY  NOTES 

Improvements  and  Repairs. — Extensive  improvements  were  made 
this  summer  on  and  about  the  two  houses  on  the  west  side  of  College 
Place.  That  occupied  by  Professor  Rice  was  painted  and  a  concrete 
walk  was  laid'  from  the  street  to  the  front  door;  that  occupied  by  Pro- 
fessor Hewitt  was  renovated  inside  and  out,  the  cellar  was  deepened 
and  a  concrete  floor  laid.  Professor  Nicolson's  house  was  painted.  The 
house  at  51  Wyllys  Street  underwent  extensive  renovation.  In  Obser- 
vatory Hall  new  floors  were  laid  in  the  corridors  and  most  of  the  rooms 
were  renovated.  In  East  Hall  certain  changes  were  made  to  afford 
increased  space  for  the  offices  of  the  Alumni  Council. 

State  Geological  and  Natural  History  Survey. — The  Con- 
necticut State  Survey  continues  under  the  superintendency  of  Professor 
Rice. 

The  only  new  work  which  is  in  progress  during  the  present  year  is  a 
study  of  the  underground  waters  of  the  state  in  cooperation  with  the 
United  States  Geological  Survey.  This  investigation  is  under  the  gen- 
eral direction  of  Professor  Herbert  E.  Gregory,  of  Yale  University,  and 
the  field  work  is  being  done  by  Mr.  Arthur  J.  Ellis. 

Professor  Rice  is  editing  the  Bulletins  of  the  Survey  which  have  been 
contracted  for  in  previous  years.  A  Bulletin  on  the  Birds  of  Connecti- 
cut, by  John  H.  Sage,  A.M.,  of  Portland,  and  Lewis  B.  Bishop,  M.  D., 
of  New  Haven,  assisted  by  Walter  P.  Bliss,  M.  A.,  of  Columbia  Uni- 
versity, has  just  been  published.  This  Bulletin  contains  the  results  of 
many  years  of  careful  observation  by  Mr.  Sage  and  Doctor  Bishop. 
Mr.  Sage's  observations  have  been  continued  for  a  period  of  forty-five 
years.  This  Bulletin  was  one  of  the  first  planned  and  contracted  for 
after  the  establishment  of  the  Survey  in  1903.  The  publication  has 
been  dela3'ed  by  many  unforeseen  hindrances,  and  has  been  eagerly 
expected  by  ornithologists,  teachers,  farmers,  and  others  interested  in 
our  birds. 

Two  other  Bulletins  are  now  in  press.  One  is  on  the  Hymenoptera  of 
Connecticut,  by  Henry  L.  Viereck,  of  the  Natural  History  Museum, 
University  of  Kansas,  with  the  collaboration  of  a  number  of  specialists 


26  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

on  different  families  included  in  that  large  order.  It  forms  the  second 
instalment  of  a  work  on  the  Insects  of  Connecticut,  which  has  been 
planned  under  the  general  direction  of  W.  E.  Britton,  Ph.  D.,  of  the 
Connecticut  Agricultural  Experiment  Station,  New  Haven. 

The  other  Bulletin  in  process  of  publication  is  on  the  Triassic  Life  of 
the  Connecticut  Valley.  It  is  by  Professor  R.  S.  Lull,  of  Yale  Univer- 
sity, who  is  one  of  the  highest  aiithorities  in  the  world  on  the  Dinosaurs, 
a  group  of  extinct  reptiles  by  which  most  of  the  tracks  on  our  red  sand- 
stones were  made. 

Debate. — The  trials  for  the  annual  debates  with  Amherst  and  Williams 
resulted  in  the  selection  of  the  following  men  to  uphold  the  affirmative 
at  Middletown  against  Williams:  Dulany,  '14,  and  Sickels,  '14,  with 
Richmond,  '15,  as  alternate.  The  following  were  selected  to  iiphold 
the  negative  against  Amherst  at  Amherst:  W.  H.  Reeves,  '16,  and 
Willoughby,  '15,  with  Brown,  '14,  as  alternate.  The  question  for 
debate  reads:  Resolved,  That  United  States  vessels  engaged  in  coastwise 
trade  should  pa}-  the  same  toll  in  passing  through  the  Panama  canal  as 
all  other  vessels.     The  debate  will  be  held  on  December  12. 

According  to  the  two  year  agreement  made  last  jear,  a  debate  will  be 
held  in  the  spring  between  Bowdoin,  Hamilton,  and  Wesleyan  on  a 
question  not  yet  selected. 

The  officers  of  the  Debating  Council  for  the  present  year  are: 
Dulany,  '14,  president;  Abraham,  '14,  manager;  and  Brodhead,  '15, 
assistant  manager. 

The  debate  between  the  sophomores  and  freshmen  will  be  held  on 
December  3,  the  subject  being  identical  with  that  of  the  triangular 
debates.  The  contestants  will  be,  for  the  sophomores,  Cass,  Curtis, 
and  Martin,  with  Aldrich  as  alternate;  for  the  freshmen.  Brown,  Sayre, 
and  M.  K.  Thomson,  with  Perkins  as  alternate. 

Phi  Beta  Kappa. — At  a  meeting  of  the  Society  held  on  November  20, 
the  following  members  of  1914  were  elected  to  membership:  Noel 
Edgar  Bensinger,  of  Auburn,  New  York;  Raymond  Tostevin  Bond,  of 
Richmond  Hill,  New  York;  Robert  Coleman  Brown,  of  Elmira,  New 
York;  William  George  Chanter,  of  Detroit,  Michigan;  Ralph  Olin 
Dulany,  of  Fruitland,  Maryland;  Joshua  Collett  Frost,  of  Auburn, 
Maine;  Brewster  Hawkins  Jones,  of  Belleville,  New  Jerse\-;  Richard 
Alfred  Rossiter,  of  Oswego,  New  York;  Harold  Purcell  Winchester,  of 
Alban)',  New  York.

FACULTY  NOTES 

President  Shanklin. — In  the  course  of  the  year  President  Shanklin 
has  addressed  the  alumni  associations  of  New  York,  Philadelphia, 
Boston,  Washington,  and  Sj'racuse,  and  has  also  spoken  in  the  interests 
of  Wesleyan  before  most  of   the  patronizing  conferences. 

Professor  Rice. — During  the  summer  vacation.  Professor  Rice  at- 
tended the  International  Geological  Congress  held  in  Toronto,  August 
7-14,  as  a  delegate  from  Wesleyan  University  and  from  the  State 
Geological  and  Natural  History  Survey.  The  meetings  were  held  in  the 
University  of  Toronto,  and  most  of  the  members  lodged  and  boarded  in 
the  university  buildings. 

In  connection  with  the  triennial  meetings  of  the  International  Con- 
gress, geological  excursions  axe  conducted  by  the  geologists  of  the 
country  in  which  the  congress  is  held,  for  the  benefit  of  the  visiting 
geologists.  In  connection  with  the  Toronto  meeting,  the  program  of 
excursions  was  more  extensive  than  in  connection  with  any  previous 
meeting.  Short  excursions  in  the  vicinity  of  Toronto  were  made  in 
the  course  of  the  meeting,  and  longer  excursions — varying  from  a  few 
days  to  six  weeks — before  and  after  the  meeting. 

Professor  Rice  took  part  in  a  series  of  excursions  to  the  Pacific  coast, 
Alaska,  and  the  Yukon  valley.     A  party  of  over  one  hundred  went  from 


28  WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN 

Toronto  to  Vancouver  by  special  train,  stopping  along  the  route  at  vari- 
ous points  of  geological  interest.  From  Vancouver  a  part}-,  numbering 
somewhat  less  than  fifty,  went  by  specially  chartered  steamer  along  the 
coast  of  British  Columbia  and  Alaska,  going  as  far  as  Yakutat  Bay, 
where  special  attention  was  given  to  the  glaciers  whose  alternations  of 
recession  and  advance  have  greatly  interested  geologists.  From  Yakutat 
Bay  the  party  returned  by  the  same  steamer  to  Skagway.  They  then 
crossed  the  White  Pass  and  took  a  steamboat  journey  down  the  Lewes 
and  Yukon  Rivers  to  Dawson,  the  centre  of  the  Klondike  region. 
On  the  return,  the  party  proceeded  from  Vancouver  to  Toronto  by  a 
different  route  from  that  taken  on  the  westward  journey,  so  as  to  visit 
other  localities  of  geological  interest.  The  party  arrived  at  Toronto 
on  October  4. 

The  centennial  of  the  great  geologist,  James  Dwight  Dana,  is  being 
celebrated  by  Yale  University  the  present  year  by  a  special  modification 
of  the  plan  of  the  Silliman  Lectures.  Instead  of  having  a  single 
scientist  deliver  a  course  of  lectures  on  the  Silliman  foundation,  a 
number  of  eminent  geologists  of  the  United  States  and  Canada  are  to 
give  a  course  of  lectures  on  American  Geological  Problems. 

Since  Professor  Dana's  work  was  epoch-making  in  the  history  of 
American  geology,  such  a  course  of  lectures  is  appropriately  introduced 
by  a  critical  discussion  of  the  geological  work  of  James  Dwight  Dana. 
That  introductory  lecture  was  given  on  December  2,  by  Professor  Rice, 
a  former  pupil  of  Professor  Dana. 

Professor  Harrington.— The  last  months  of  Professor  Harring- 
ton's year  of  absence  were  spent  in  further  study  and  travel  on  the 
continent  of  Europe  and  in  England.  His  itinerary  included  Naples 
and  vicinity,  Pompeii,  Paestum,  Terni,  Assisi,  Perugia,  Siena,  Florence, 
the  alleged  site  of  Pliny's  villa  in  Tusds,  the  Italian  lakes,  various 
places  among  the  Fassa  Dolomites  and  in  Switzerland,  a  tour  through 
the  old  Roman  cities  of  southern  France  and  over  several  of  the  Alpine 
passes  traditionally  connected  with  Hannibal's  march  to  Italy,  the 
Roman  camp  of  the  Saalburg  near  Homburg,  the  Rhine,  Holland,  and, 
besides  many  favorite  spots  in  England,  a  visit  to  the  remains  of  the 
Roman  wall  in  the  north  not  far  from  Carlisle.  Especially  at  Dresden, 
the  royal  library  in  Munich,  the  Vatican  library,  the  L^niversitv  of 
Leyden,  the  British  Museimi,  and  Cambridge,  Professor  Harrington 
availed  himself  of  advantageous  opportunities  to  consult  ancient  manu- 
scripts and  books  in  connection  with  editorial  work  upon  which  he  has 
been  engaged  for  some  time. 


WESLEYAN  UNIVERSITY  BULLETIN  29 

Professor  Bradley. — Professor  Bradley  spent  last  year  with  the 
United  States  Rubber  Company,  having  been  granted  a  year's  leave  of 
absence.  Most  of  the  year  he  spent  in  organizing  a  chemical,  a  phys- 
ical, and  a  so-called  "process"  laboratory  for  testing  and  research. 
Temporary  quarters  for  these  were  secured  at  the  plant  of  a  subsidiary 
compau}',  the  India  Rubber  Company  at  New  Brunswick,  New  Jersey; 
in  the  late  spring  they  were  transferred  to  New  York  City  and  Pro- 
fessor Bradley  spent  the  time  from  April  to  September  at  the  labora- 
tories of  the  Revere  Rubber  Company,  at  Providence,  Rhode  Island. 
This  also  is  a  subsidiary  of  the  United  States  Rubber  Company  and  is 
the  largest  producer  of  rubber  thread  in  the  country.  Professor  Bradley 
examined  the  entire  process  of  manufacture,  with  a  view  to  changes 
that  would  improve  the  vitality  of  the  material. 

Professor  DuTcher. — In  the  summer  session  of  Columbia  Univers- 
it}-,  Professor  Dutcher  gave  a  course  of  thirty  lectures  on  the  History  of 
Europe  since  1870,  and  conducted  a  graduate  seminary  in  the  Methods 
of  Historical  Research. 

Mr.  Barrows. — Mr.  Barrows  attended  the  Twelfth  International 
Geological  Congress  in  Toronto,  and  took  part  in  an  excursion  which 
spent  a  month  in  studying  the  geography  and  geology  of  portions  of 
Quebec,  New  Brunswick,  Nova  Scotia,  and  Cape  Breton  Island. 


YOUNG  MEN'S  CHRISTIAN  ASSOCIATION 

The  work  of  the  Association  this  year  is  in  charge  of  Chanter,  '14, 
the  undergraduate  president.  Under  his  direction  the  employment 
bureau  was  conducted  in  an  unusually  efficient  way  and  many  were 
assisted  to  secure  remunerative  work,  especially  in  the  earl)'  da3's  of  the 
term.  Before  college  opened,  the  association  handbook  and  a  letter  of 
greeting  were  mailed  to  every  prospective  freshman.  At  the  opening 
reception  held  on  September  25,  President  Shanklin,  Professors  Win- 
chester and  Nicolson,  the  president  of  the  College  Body,  and  the  presi- 
dent of  the  Association  addressed  a  large  audience. 

This  reception  was  held  in  the  large  double  room  in  the  basement  of 
Fisk  Hall.  This  room  has  been  fitted  up  for  the  use  of  the  Association. 
Comfortable  and  substantial  furniture  has  been  installed,  and  the 
Young  Men's  Christian  Association  now  has  an  attractive  meeting 
room,  which,  it  is  hoped,  will  also  serve  as  a  social  center  for  the  grow- 
ing number  of  students  who  are  not  members  of  fraternities  nor  of  the 
Commons  Club.

In  cooperation  with  the  citj'  association,  men  from  the  college  are 
teaching  English  and  civics  to  several  classes  of  immigrants,  while 
others  are  at  work  in  the  boys'  department.  Many  of  the  city  churches 
have  Wesleyan  men  working  in  their  Sunday  Schools.  Still  others  are 
taking  charge  of  the  neighborhood  work,  the  oldest  form  of  social 
service  at  Wesleyan. 

This  year  the  Bible  study  enrolment  was  taken  earlier  than  usual,  and 
classes  began  their  work  October  5.  The  total  enrolment  is  140  and 
the  attendance  on  all  the  groups  has,  so  far,  been  excellent.  The 
courses  are  as  follows:  The  Book  of  Job,  conducted  by  Professor 
Winchester;  The  Social  Significance  of  the  Teachings  of  Jesus,  con- 
ducted by  Professor  Rowland;  The  Manhood  of  the  Master  (for  fresh- 
men), conducted  by  Bensinger,  Blydenburgh,  Chanter,  Hall,  and 
Moore,  '14,  and  Richards,  '15.  These  men  meet  weekly  with  Professor 
Hewitt  to  compare  notes  and  discuss  the  work  of  the  coming  week. 
Courses  in  mission  study  are  being  conducted  by  Professors  Conley  and 
Miles  on  The  City  Church  and  its  Social  Mission,  and  the  Revolution  in 
China,  respectively. 

The  Thursday  evening  meetings  of  the  Association  are  being  very 
well  attended.  At  the  opening  meeting  on  September  18,  President 
Shanklin  spoke  to  a  gathering  of  250  men.  On  October  16,  Mr.  Oliver 
F.  Cutts,  alunmi  secretary  of  the  international  committee  of  Young 
Men's  Christian  Associations,  presented  the  new  and  important  branch 
of  alumni  work,  which  seeks  to  connect  each  college  graduate  with 
some  form  of  social  service. 

The  membership  of  the  Association  is  encouragingly  large.  The 
figures  by  classes  are:

Body  for  the  present  year  is  Herbert  Langdon  Pratt,  '14,  of  Newton 
Center,  Massachusetts. 

Argus. — Under  the  present  management,  the  Argus  has  been  con- 
siderably remodeled.  The  number  of  pages  has  been  reduced  to  four, 
while  the  size  of  the  pages  has  been  increased.  This  change  is  intended 
to  reduce  the  cost  of  publishing,  to  eliminate  all  unprofitable  advertis- 
nients,  and  to  cut  all  padding  out  of  the  news  articles. 

Albany  Club. — An  Albany  Club  has  been  formed  by  the  students  at 
Wesleyan  who  come  from  that  city.  The  object  of  the  club  is  to  further 
the  interests  of  Wesleyan  among  the  young  men  of  Albany  who  intend 
to  go  to  college,  and  to  get  as  many  of  them  as  possible  to  visit 
Wesleyan  before  choosing  the  college  they  intend  to  enter.  The  officers 
of  the  club  are:  H.  P.  Winchester,  '14,  president;  G.  W.  Beenian,  '16, 
vice-president;  W.  W.  Thompson,  '16,  secretary.  The  club  at  present 
has  ten  members.

college  at  Mount  Hermon,  have  formed  a  club,  mainly  to  promote 
Wesleyan 's  interests  among  the  students  of  Mount  Hermon  School,  and 
incidentally  to  increase  the  bond  of  friendship  among  themselves. 
Delegates  are  to  be  sent  each  year  to  visit  the  school.  The  officers  of 
the  club  are:  George  Mair,  '16,  president;  F.  E.  Stevens,  '17,  vice-presi-

The  Independents. — An  organization  has  been  formed  of  the  men 
in  college  who  are  members  neither  of  fraternities  nor  of  the  Commons 
Club.  This  society  will  conduct  any  business  with  the  fraternities  that 
affects  the  Independents  as  a  whole;  it  will  be  represented,  along  with 
the  fraternities,  in  college  competitions;  it  will  stand  back  of  its  men 
and  aid  them  in  college  activities,  and  will  serve  as  a  social  bond  among 
its  members.  It  is  not  in  any  sense  anti-fraternity  in  spirit,  and  will  not 
bar  its  members  from  joining  fraternities  or  other  organizations  which 
they  may  wish  to  join.  Sixty  men  are  at  present  enrolled  in  the  society. 
The  following  officers  have  been  elected:  P.  P.  Martin,  '14,  president;
