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
4 WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN
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
6 WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN
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}-.

5.352 per cent among the funds and balances to which these invest-
ments belong, no interest being allowed to the profit and loss account
for general endowment and for Ayres scientific endowment, and only
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
said fund. Any income above 4 '2 per cent shall be added to the prin-
cipal of the fund.

from $77,574-57 to $88,637.26. Of the new payments $10,215.35 was
credited to the general endowment fund, and $847.34 to the general

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
l6 WKSLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN
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
who were in attendance. A portrait of President Shanklin forms the
frontispiece. The volume contains 154 pages and is neatly bound
in dark red cloth. Copies may be obtained from the librarian of the
Universitj' at one dollar each.
WKSLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN I 7
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.
FACULTY NOTES
Profes.sor Hkidet-. — Professor Heidel has resumed his duties in the
college after a half-year's absence abroad. During his stay in Greece, he
joined an international party of archaeologists, conducted by Professors
Doerpfeld and Karo, of the German Archaeological Institute, to Delphi,
Olympia, Mycente, Tiryns, Argos, and Epidaurus. Later he visited a
score of imiversities in Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Belgium, and
England, in order to meet the leading scholars in ancient philosophy
and Greek.
WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN 1 9
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.
Meetings Attended. — President Shanklin attended the Conmience-
ment exercises at Trinity College, Hartford, on June 22, at which the
degree of Doctor of Laws was conferred upon him. Later he was
present at the matriculation day services of the Theological School of
Boston University, October 11, and with Professor Nicolson he repre-
sented Wesleyan University at the fifty-third annual meeting of the
Association of New England Colleges at Amherst, November 2-3.
President Shanklin was present at the meeting of the Managing Board
of the Methodist Brotherhood in New York on November 16. The
University was represented by President Shanklin and Professor Dodge
at the celebration of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the founding of
Bryn Mawr College on October 22; by Professor Nicolson at the meet-
ing of the College Entrance Examination Board in New York City on
November 12; by Professor Conn at the inauguration of President
Burton of Smith College in October; by Professor Fife at the New
England Conference of College Teachers of Modern Languages, at
Tufts College, on October 29, and by ex-President Raymond and Pro-
fessor Armstrong at the dedication of the new buildings of LInion Theo-
logical Seminary in New York on November 29.
Professor Rice attended a meeting in Columbus, Ohio, on May 10, of
a Committee of the University Senate of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, charged with the duty of a general investigation into the status
of all the educational institutions under the patronage of that church;
and President Shanklin and Professor Rice attended a second meeting
of the same committee in New York on November 17 and iS.

. 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-
setts Institute of Technology. The other is the first part of an elaborate
work on the Insects of Connecticut, in preparation by a number of
.specialists, under the general direction of Dr. W. E. Britton, E;ntomo-
logist of the Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station in New
Haven.
German Book Club.— Several members of the faculty and others
interested in German literature have formed a book club for the circula-
tion of contemporary works in German fiction, verse, and drama. Each
subscriber pays three dollars per year, receiving therefor one new book
every two weeks, which after being read is passed on to the next mem-
ber on the list. After being read by all, the books are added to the
German collection in the University Library, the German department
paying several subscri])tions, and the general library fund the cost of
bindirg.
WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN 21
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
December at the University conducting a series of inspiring services
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.
22 WE.SLEYAN UNIVERSITY BUIvLETlN
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.

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

been formed, to which the alumni associations of New York, Phila-
delphia, and Boston have appointed representatives, as follows: E. A.
Wilkie, '76, Chairman; W. D. Leonard, '78; Charles Scott, '86; V. B.
Svvett, '96; K. M. Goode, '04; and G. I. Bodine, Jr., '06. This committee

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.

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,
March i, 191 1. The president of the association, Profes.sor Andrew
Keogh, of Yale LTniversity, opened the meeting by giving a brief history
of the association, which had been in existence twenty years. Professor
Rice made a brief address of welcome, followed b}^ Mr. James, who gave
a few facts about the University library. The addresses of the morning
were by Mr. Frank B. Gay, of the Watkinson Library, Hartford, who
spoke on "Bookbinding Design," and by Mr. Louis N. Wilson, of Clark
Universit)^, who took as his subject, "Some New Fields of Library
Activity." Luncheon was served in the Fayerweather Gymnasium. The
afternoon session was so largelv attended that the meeting was held in
l6 WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN
Memorial ChapeL The programme consisted of three addresses. Pro-
fessor Dodge spoke on the "Popularization of Psychology/' Professor
Henry A. Beers, of Yale University, read a paper on the "Connecticut
Wits." Professor G. B. Adams, of Yale LTniversit}^, spoke on the
"Historical Novel."
Bible Exhibit. — In honor of the tercentenary of the King James
translation of the English Bible, an exhibit was arranged in the library,
during the month of March, illustrating the various English transla-
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-.

UNIVERSITY NOTES
Junior Exhibition. — The Junior Exhibition was held in Memorial
Chapel on Tuesday, May 2. The committee of award consisted of
William Walter Wilcox, B. A., of Middletown, Professor Anthon Temple
Gesner, B. A., M. A., of the Berkeley Divinity School, and Joseph Henry
Mclntyre, B. A., of the Middletown High School. To Carl Scott Coit,
of Lawrence, N. Y., was awarded the first prize, for an oration on
"Industrial Democracy". The second prize was given to Lawrence
Elwood Rothrock, of Easton, Pa., for an oration entitled "Greece
the Source of Modern Civilization."
New England Oratorical League. — For the first time a com-
petition was held to select the speaker to represent Wesleyan in the
New England Oratorical League annual contest. The preliminary
contest was held in Memorial Chapel on April 4. The speakers were
Panunzio, '11, Simmons, '11, Wriston, '11, Nichols, '13, Montgomery,
'11, and Brodhead, '11. The committee of the faculty on public literary
exercises, acting as judges, chose Montgomery to represent Wesleyan,
with Wriston as alternate.
The second intercollegiate contest was held at Bowdoin, May 4.
The judges were Professors I. L. W^inter of Harvard, J. A. Tufts of
Exeter, W. B. Munro of Harvard, Judge A. P. Stone of Boston, and
Doctor C. E. Meleney, Assistant Superintendent of Schools of New
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

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
24 WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN
American Society of Bacteriologists, of which he was one of the founders,
its first secretary and its third president. Professor Conn attended the
meetings of the American Society of Bacteriologists at Ithaca, New
York, December 27-29, 1910, and the American Association of Medical
Milk Commissions at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, May 23-24, 191 1.
Professor Nicolson. — Professor Nicolson represented the University
at the meeting of the National Collegiate Athletic Association in New-
York, December 29, 1910, and was reelected secretary-treasurer. He
also represented the University at the meeting of the College Entrance
Examination Board in New York, and attended a meeting of the Com-
mittee of Review of the College Entrance Examination Board, April 22,
191 1. He attended the annual meeting of the New England College
Entrance Certificate Board, May 12; the Association of Administrative
Officers in New England Colleges at Bowdoiu College, Brunswick,
Maine, on May 17 and 18; and the meeting of the Association of Col-
leges in New England for Conference on Athletics, in Boston on May 19.
He is president this year of the three last named organizations and has
been reelected president of the New England College Entrance Certifi-
cate Board for the ensuing year.
Professor Bradley. — On December 19, 1910, Professor Bradley was
appointed by Governor Weeks the Connecticut representative on the
organization committee of the Eighth International Congress of Applied
Chemistry, which is to meet in Washington and New York in 1912. He
was later made chairman of the sub-committee on fuels, of section V. c,
fuels and asphalt.
Professor Fife. — During the present semester, Professor Fife has
been absent in Europe on a half-year's leave. He set sail from New
York for the Mediterranean cruise on the Cedric of the White Star Line
on the 22nd of February. Professor Fife remained two months in Italy,
visiting Naples, Rome, Florence, and Venice as well as nian}^ smaller
places. From Venice his plans took him to Budapest and Vienna. It is
his purpose to spend the summer in Germany, returning to Middletowu
in September. Because of Professor Fife's absence some readjustments
have been made in the courses offered by the German Department this
year. Doctor Curts is in charge of the department during Professor
Fife's absence. Professor Fife and Dr. Curts attended the meeting of
the Modern Language Association of America held in New York City,
December 27-29, 1910.
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-
tion for the Advancement of Science, December 30, 1910.
Meetings Attended. — The annual meeting of the American Philo-
logical Association and of the Archaeological Institute of America, held
at Providence, Rhode Island, December 27-30, was attended by Pro-
fessors Heidel, Harrington, and Hewitt. Professor Heidel is a member
of the council of the former association.
Professor Dutcher attended the meeting of the American Historical
Association in Indianapolis, December 27-30, 1910; and spoke at the
annual dinner of the Wesleyan Alumni Association of Newark and
Vicinity in Newark, March 31, 191 1.
Professor Mead attended in December, 1910, the annual meetings of
the Modern Language Association of America and of the American
26 WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN
Dialect Society at the College of the City of New York. He was
reelected secretary of the American Dialect vSociety and is e.r officio
editor of Dialect Notes.
Professor Cady attended the meeting of the American Physical
Society, held at Columbia University, New York City, March 4, 191 1.
Professor Bradley and Doctors Renshaw and Turrentine attended the
opening meeting of the Connecticut Valley Section of the American
Chemical Society at Hartford on Aprils, 191 1. Doctor Renshaw was
elected councillor to represent the section in the governing body of the
parent society.
Mr. James represented the college at the dedication of the John Hay
Memorial Library Building, Brown University, on November 11, 1910.
He was present at the joint meeting of the Pennsylvania and New Jersey
Library Associations at x\tlantic City, on March 9-1 1, 191 1. He was
also present at a private view of the New York Public Library Building
which was offered to members of the New York Librarj' Club on March
23, 1911.
Mr. Reiter attended the meeting of the Society of Directors of
Physical Education in Colleges in New York City, December 30, 1910.
Civic Activities. — At the annual meeting on Februar}- 13, Professor
Harrington was again reelected president of the Twentieth Century
Club of Middletown, and Professor Dutcher was elected a member of
the council. Professors Harrington and Dutcher represent the Twen-
tieth Century Club on the joint committee on commission government
for the city of Middletown. Professors Harrington and Fisher have
appeared before certain committees of the Connecticut legislature to
speak upon various bills during the present session.
Summer Courses. — Professors Mead and Dodge will conduct advanced
courses at Columbia LTniversity during the siimmer session. The follow-
ing alumni of Wesleyan will also be in charge of courses at Columbia:
H. S. White, '82, A. H. Thorndike, '93, R. H. Williams, '98, and R. C.
Dean, '09. G. W. Sherburn, '06, will give a course in English during
the summer session of the University of Chicago.
UNDERGRADUATE NOTES
Alpha Chi Rho. — A group of twenty-three students representing all
four classes organized themselves as a local fraternity with the name
of Alpha Chi Alpha on December i, 1910. They have leased from the
WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN 27
University the recently purchased Pike property in College Place. The
new fraternity was promptly accorded provisional recognition by the
College Body, and on May 31, the twenty-five members of the society
were initiated as Phi Gamma chapter of the national fraternit}-, Alpha
Chi Rho.
Dramatic Association. — "The Title Mart," by Winston Churchill,
was presented on May 11, in Middletown, and additional performances
were given in Montclair, New Jersey, and at the Hotel Plaza, New York,
on May 18 and 19.
Smokers. — Informal meetings of the student body, popularly called
smokers, have been held at the various fraternity houses during the year.
On Washington's Birthday a smoker at the Eclectic House in the after-
noon was addressed by President Shanklin, Professor Nicolson, the
Honorable Leslie Mortier Shaw, and by A. K. Dearborn, '06. A large
number of sub-freshmen were present. On Saturday evening, March
18, Reverend Fred Winslow Adams of Schenectady, New York, spoke
at a smoker at the Psi L^psilon House on Mark Twain. Another smoker
was held at the Chi Psi Lodge in honor of the Bowdoin debating team
at the close of the debate on April 7. Each of the classes has held a
number of similar gatherings during the year at which some guest,
usually a member of the faculty, was invited to be present and speak
informally.

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

- 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:
1. First Biennial Report of the Commissioners of the State Geologi-
cal and Natural History Survey, 1903-1904.

necticut, by Benjamin Hovey Walden. [In press.]
17. Fourth Biennial Report of the Commissioners of the State Geo-
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,
are the following:
Arthur T. Neale, Ph. D., '73, Director of the Agricultural Experi-
ment Station, Newark, Del.;
J. H. Long, Sc. D., Professor of Chemistry in the Medical School of
Northwestern University, President of the American Chemical
Society, 1903-4;
C. D. Woods, Sc. D., '80, Director of the Maine Agricultural Experi-
ment Station;

in researches upon the physical chemistry of soils. Bureau of
Soils, Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C.
Besides Professor Bradley, the personnel of the department this 3'ear
includes Raemer Rex Renshaw, Instructor since 1907, and J. W.
Turrentine, Instructor since 1908.*
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

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
WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN 21
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
WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN 23
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:
Arthur W. Smith, Ph. D., Assistant Professor of Phj'sics, University
of Michigan;
Frederick W. Grover, Ph. D., Associate Physicist, National Bureau
of Standards;
Clarence A. Pierce, Ph. D., '03, Instructor in Physics, Cornell Univer-
sity, recently appointed Assistant Professor in Electrical Engi-
neering, Worcester Polytechnic Institute;
Harold D. Arnold, M. S., "06, Fellow in Physics, Chicago University,
'oy-'og. Professor of Physics, Mount Allison University, '09-' 10,
recently appointed to position in Research Department, Western
Electric Co.;
George W. Vinal, A. M., '06, Assistant Physicist, National Bureau
of Standards;
Alexander C. Stevens, M. E., ex-'o6, recently appointed Instructor
in Electrical Engineering, Sibley College, Cornell University.
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
24 WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN
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. . . .

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

December 18, 1879.
62 WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN
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.
64 WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN
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

WesIvEyan'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 by 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 stan'dards 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 191 2, but women may still be
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.

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
for general endowment, and only the interest called for by agreement
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
the general endowment fund, and $296.98 to the general income account.

RECENT GIFTS
Since the publication of the last Bulletin the new endowment fund
has been increased by the following gifts: $5,000 from Mrs. Stephen
H. Olin, to be added to the Olin Professorship fund; $2,500 from Mrs.
Mary C. Holman and Mrs. Lillie G. Smith for the Lewis Gunn Scholar-
ship fund in memory of their father, Reverend Lewis Gunn, who was
born in Washington, Connecticut, in 1806 and died in 1S75, and who, in
the beginning of his ininistr}-, gave a large part of his salary toward
the founding of a minister's scholarship in Wesleyan University-; $250
from Francis T. Garrettson, '47. The general endowment has been
increased by $6,000 received from the estate of Mrs. Harriet W. Wilcox,
and by $416.65 received on account of the Bowne legacy.
W. R. Walkley, '60, has added $20 to the principal of the Walkley
Prize Fund and Reverend W. R. Breed, '87, has given $15 to the Alumni
Library fund.
Various members of the board of trustees have made payments
aggregating $14,150 on account of their subscriptions toward the deficit
of 1910-11. The Wesleyan Universit}' Alumni Athletic Association has
paid $135 on account of the salary of the director of the gymnasium.
Reverend D. G. Downey, '84, has given $25 for tuition.
Since July ist, 1911, additional payments of $235.60 have been
received for the undergraduate building fund for North College; and
further payments to the alumni endowment fund have been made
amounting to $339.54-
Under the will of the late Walter Hubbard of Meriden, Connecticut,
the University benefits to the amount of $40,000. This generous gift is
to constitute a scholarship fund, the income to be employed in aiding
needy and worthy students. The late Mrs. Elizabeth F. Vanderveer of
Brooklyn, New York, left a legacy of $1,000 to the University-.

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.

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.
28 WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN
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.
WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN 29
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

$1,000,000 ADDED ENDOWMENT FUND
$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
JOHN WESLEY LINDSAY
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
lO
WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN
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

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
delegation, of Goodrich, '99, and of Professors Crawford, Harrington,
and Kuhns.
Civic Activities. — From the presidency of the Twentieth Century
Club, founded and placed on a firm basis by himself, Professor
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
again in 19 10, each time for a term of two j-ears. Professor Fife was
elected a member of the city council.
Junior Exhibition. — The Junior Exhibition w-as held in Memorial
Chapel on April 25. The committee of award consisted of Mr. H. C.
Whittlesey, B. A., of Middletown; Professor C. B. Hedrick, of Berkeley
Divinity School, and Professor Fauver. Lloyd Preston Rice, of Granby,
received first prize for an oration on "The Awakening of China;"
William Greene Howells, of Upper Montclair, New Jersey, the second
prize, for an oration on "The Centenarj' of Charles Dickens."
26 WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN
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
prize to Arthur Deehan Welch of Bowdoin for an oration on the "The
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.

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.
6 WESLEYAN UNIVERvSITY BULLETIN
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
WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN 7
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
8 WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN
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.
WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN 9
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
instruction, in shaping the general policy of the college, his influence
JOHN MONROE VAN VLECK
was always prominent. No other man had so much to do in making
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.

the enlargement of the endowment of the University."
The following amendment to Section 4, Chapter 3, of the By-Laws
was adopted: — Sec. 4. The executive committee shall take the general
charge of the interests of the University in the intervals between the
meetings of the board and shall have all the powers of the board during

Xhiiversity, excepting such powers as are specifically committed to the
finance committee; shall provide, until the next meeting of the board,
for any vacancy occasioned by the death, sickness, or disability of any
officer of the University, and shall have power to make temporary
appointments of officers of instruction; shall transact any business that
may be specifically committed to them by the board; shall exercise due
vigilance to prevent loss or damage to the property of the University;
may make and execute leases of the rentable property of the corpora-
tion; shall have power to expend all money requisite for the discharge
of the diities imposed upon them by these by-laws or by special vote of
the Iward; and shall audit and authorize the payment of all bills, not
otherwise provided for by action of the board, provided, however, that
they shall have power to commit the auditing and authorization of the
WESLEYAN UNIVERvSITY BULLETIN 1 5
payment of current bills to a sub-committee consisting of not less than
five members, of whom the presence and concurrence of not less than
three members shall be necessary for any action.
Section 5 of the same chapter was amended to read as follows : —
Sec. 5. The finance committee shall have supervision of all the funds
of the University, direct the investment and reinvestment of the same,
and audit the accounts of the treasurer. For the purpose of such invest-
ment and reinvestment, said committee is hereby given full and complete
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
to do in every case without further authority from the corporation or
the trustees. The presence and conciirrence of four members shall be
necessary to make or change investments. Said committee shall report
its doings and the condition of the funds at the annual meeting, and
whenever requested bj- the board.
The following appointments to the faculty were made, all for one
3ear: Bert Emsley, Instructor in English; Enoch Burton Gowin, In-
structor in Social Science; Doctor John Kenyon Lamond, Instructor in
Mathematics; Doctor Friedrich Schoenemann, Instructor in German;
Ralph Maynard Holmes, Assistant in Physics; Robert Reed Stevens,

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 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.

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
2 2 WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN
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.

Resolved, That this Association express their hearty thanks to J. C.
Clark, '86, for his splendid services rendered in securing the alumni
endowment fund.
R. C. Parker, '93, spoke in commendation of the work of L. E. Gordon,
'94, and W. H. Hall, '92, in behalf of the endowment fund, noting in it
another sign of the power of President Shanklin to impress men.
The following officers were elected for the ensiling year: President,

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
growth of between sixty and seventy-five per cent. From the funds
WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN 23

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.
WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN 33
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.
FACULTY NOTES
Anniversaries and Inaugurations. — President Shanklin repre-
sented the University on October 9 at the seventy-fifth anniversary of
the founding of Mount Holyoke College and delivered an address as the
representative of the colleges and universities of New England. Pro-
fessor Rice represented the University at the inauguration of Ezra
Squier Tipple, as president of Drew Theological Seminary on October
24. Profes.sor Heidel represented the L'niversity at the dedication of
the Harper Memorial Library at the University of Chicago on June 10
and 1 1, and at the seventy-fifth anniversary of the founding of the Uni-
versity of Michigan on Jiine 26.
Professor Winchester. — Professor Winchester has been elected
president of the board of trustees of the new Wilbraham Academy,
which has been reorganized as a boys' school and was opened on
September 17.
WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN 37
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.
Mr. WeTzeE — During the last ten days of August Mr. Wetzel con-
ducted the Lithia Springs Chautauqua, at Litliia Springs, Illinois, and
38 WESLKYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN
delivered the annual Recognition Day address. He also gave a num-
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

WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN 39
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.
40 WEvSLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN
King of Virginia. Political clubs of the adherents of these three parties
were formed among the students.

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.
STATISTICvS CONCERNING THE: ALUMNI
Part III
This is the third and last of a series of articles contributed by Pro-
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.
8. FAMILV RECORDS
[An article from which these facts are tabulated appeared in Science, N. S. v. 36, pp. 74-76.]
a. RIarriages. — Of the 2,627 male graduates, 1,930 have married
(73.46 per cent). Of the 222 women graduates, 96 have married (43.28
per cent). The percentage of married women compared with that of
men who graduated in their own classes and have married, is 43.48 per
cent as against 65.7 per cent.

* 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.

MUSEUM
A collection of eighty-six prehistoric articles found at Atzcapotzalco,
Mexico, has been presented to the museum by Arnold Shanklin,
American Consul General of Mexico. This collection is made up
largely of pieces of pottery, toys, idols, masks, and incense-burners.
These have been fully labeled and are now on exhibition.
A beautiful hand-carved piece of wood and a collection of sixty-four
arthropoda, mainly beetles, have been received from John Gowd}-, '97,
Foo-Chow, China; a mounted peacock and a brilliantly colored bird
from Peru from Mrs. L. B. Chaffee of Middletown; a hawk from Mr. J.
R. Pitt of Middletown; twenty-six ancient coins of Egypt, Greece,
Rome, and Spain, from Stephen H. Olin, '66; twenty fragments of
stones used in the construction and decoration of ancient Rome from
the Iowa Society of the Archaeological Institute of America; specimens
of pork containing larval tapeworms, several liver flukes, and Texas
cattle ticks, from Mr. L. E. Day of Chicago; models of the famous fossil
connecting links between reptiles and birds, Airhaeoptetyx niacrura
and siemensi, the originals of which are in the British and Berlin muse-
ums, from Mr. A. R. Crittenden of Middletown; several fossil fish and
models of fossil fish, from the Carnegie Institute of Pittsburg, Pennsyl-

fessor Atwater by the expositions of Atlanta in 1895, Paris in 1900, and
St. Louis in 1904, as a loan from Mrs. Atwater and faniil}'.
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.
22 WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN
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.

Spirit of the New Republic, and second prize to Ralph Gordon Sickels
of Indianapolis, Indiana, for an oration on " The American City."
State Geologicai, and Natural History Survey. — Two Bulletins
of the State Geological and Natural History Survey have been recently
published under the editorial supervision of Professor Rice as superin-
tendent of the survey. These are the following: No. 19, Echinoderms
of Connecticut, by Wesley Roswell Coe, Ph.D., Professor of Biology,
Sheffield Scientific School of Yale University. No. 21, Fifth Biennial
Report of the Connnissioners of the State Geological and Natural His-
tory Survey, 1911-1912. Two other Bulletins are now in press, and the
former will be published very shortly. These are the following: No.
20, The Birds of Connecticut, by John Hall Sage, M. S., Secretary of the
American Ornithologists' Union, and Louis Bennett Bishop, M. D.,
Fellow of the American Ornithologists' Union, assisted by Walter Parks
Bliss, M. A., Assistant in Bacteriology, Columbia L^niversity. No. 22,
28 WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN
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.
WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN 29
The members of the conference were enthusiastic in their apprecia-
tion of the hospitality of Wesleyan and of the intrinsic vahie of the
discussions. They examined with interest the imusual equipment of
Wesleyan's laboratory and its unique apparatus for demonstration and
research.
Public School Superintendents. — On December 7 the University
entertained the Connecticut Association of Public School Superinten-
dents at its thirteenth annual meeting. Professor Rice made an
address of welcome and Professor Nicolsou spoke on " The Machinery
of Admission to College." The afternoon session was devoted largely
to a discussion led by Superintendent Wheatley of Middletown, on
" The Model Rural School."

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.

Dramatics.— The annual performance of the Dramatic Club, which

of New York Gity. After the performance in Middletown, the play was
presented at Mount Vernon, New York, on December 20; at East Orange,
New Jersey, on December 21; and at the Academy of Music, Brooklyn,
New York, on December 23.
The annual dramatics of the Commons Club were held on March 17,
at the Foss House. The Club presented " The School for Scandal " by
Richard Brinsley Sheridan.
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-
loughby, '15. '2^^
[[College Orchestra.— To afford musical opportunity for those who
play musical instruments unsuited for or not needed by the mandolin
club, an orchestra has been organized under the leadership of Otto
Carpenter, '15.

WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY
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 !
Rudya7-d Kipling.
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.

The secretary of the Council is visiting a number of schools that have
not previously been visited by any representative of Wesleyan. One of
his trips included about a dozen of the northernmost and easternmost
schools in the United States. In November he visited a number of
schools in the middle west and attended a national convention of
alumni secretaries in Chicago, the second of the kind ever held.
The outstanding thing in the activity of the Council last year was the
preparation and publication of " A Trip to Wesleyan," the text of which
was written by K. M. Goode, '04. For the new college year the special
features include the increase of alumni news, the fixing of stated dates
for the appearance of class letters, and the preparation throughout the
year for the June reunions.

22 WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN
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.
3° WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY BULLETIN
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

UNDERGRADUATE NOTES
President of the Coixege Body. — The President of the College
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.
Mount Hermon Club. — Fifteeti undergraduates, who prepared for
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-
dent; G. F. Johnson, '17, recording secretary and treasurer; F. L,. Chiesa,
'17, corresponding secretary.
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;
H. K. Miller, '14, vice-president; L. J. Carey, '15, secretary; and G. L.
Gans, '17, treasurer.
