RRIIzr HISTORY
Univepsitn^ or Nopth Carolina.
The University of North Carolina is founded on the
Constitution of 1776. Owing to the vicissitudes of war
and the impoverishment of the country, the charter
was not granted until 1789. The meeting of the trus-
tees for organization was on December iS, 1789, or the
anniversary of the adopting of the constitution. Chas.
Johnson, of Edentou, was chairman.
General Benjamin Smith made a donation of twenty
thousand acres of land in Obion County, Tennessee.
Some years afterward sold for $14,000.
General Wm. Lenoir was the first formally elected
president of the Board of Trustees, the next being
Governor Alexander Martin.
The University was located at Chapel Hill in 1792
by Frederick Hargett, senator from Jones ; Alexander
Mebane, of Orange, a congressman ; James Hogg, a
merchant, of Fayetteville; Wm. H. Hill, of Wilming-
ton, a congressman ; David Stone, of Bertie, afterward
governor and Federal senator; and Willie Jones, a
commoner, from Halifax. It is said that they agreed
on the site while eating their dinner under the "Davie
Poplar." The citizens around Chapel Hill donated
about thirteen hundred acres of land, which probably
influenced the commissioners more than the cold din-
ner under the poplar.
The Old East was the first building. The corner-
stone was laid on October 12, 1793, " University Day,"
by Gen. W. K. Davie, Samuel E. McCorkle, D. D., of
Rowan, preaching the dedicatory sermon. By the
time it was finished, the President's house, now Pro-
fessor Gore's, was ready for occupancy.
Person Hall (the Chemical Building), The South,
Old West and Gerrard Hall, the last finished in 1837,
followed in the order named.
In 1852 Smith Hall (the Library), in 1859 the New
East and New West, in 1885 Memorial Hall and the
Gymnasium, in 1894 the Infirmary, were erected.
Besides these others there was once a Steward's Hall
in the middle of Cameron Avenue, east of the Library,
torn down about 1846.
The first president of the University was Joseph
Caldwell, of New Jersey, elected in 1804, on motion of
Judge William Gaston. Prior to that date the chief
executive officer was called "'Presiding Professor."
The first was David Kerr, D. D. He was succeeded
by Charles W. Harris, of Caborrus, and he by James
S. Gillespie. In 181 2 Dr. Caldwell gave place for four
years to Robert H. Chapman, D. D., and then Dr.
Caldwell held the position until his death in 1835.
Then David Lowry Swain, late governor, was chosen
president and held the office until 1868. From 1868
to 1875 Solomon Pool, D. D., was president, but exer-
cises were suspended in 1870. The doors were opened
again in 1875 with Charles Phillips, D. D., LL. D., as
chairman of the Faculty. In June, 1876, Kemp P.
Battle, LL- D. , was elected president, and resigned in
1891, in order to take charge of the Chair of History,
George T.Winston, LL. D., the present incumbent,
being elected to succeed him.
The largest number of students before the civil war
was 461, of whom 178 were from other .states than
North Carolina. The number this year, 1895-6, in-
cluding students attending the summer school of 1895,
is 534-
Summer Normal Schools were held from 1877 to
1885, under the conduct of the Universit}-. They were
largely attended and contributed much to the inaugu-
ration of graded and other schools in the state. In
1894 was begun the University Summer School, for
the benefit of teachers, under the charge of the Profes-
.sor of Pedagogics.
The Law School was inaugurated in 1845, but was
not subjected to the government of the University till
some time later on.
The Medical School was inaugurated in 1878, but
was discontinued in 1885, then revived and placed on
its present firm footing in 1890.

The University is the head of the educational system
of the state. Its life has run for over a century, and it
is our oldest public school. It is older than all the
present political parties, and doubtless it will survive
them all.
As the life of to-day is more exacting, more complex
and more all embracing than the life of half a century
ago, so the university of to-day, being both product and
factor of the larger life about it, is broader in its field
of work, more intense in its training, freer from artifi-
cial and conventional methods and standards and
nearer to actual life than the university of former days.
There is greater freedom in all things and greater .sys-
tem in all things. There is better conduct with fewer
rules for conduct. There is less compulsion by author-
ity and more compulsion by public sentiment. There
is less molding and more developing. The teacher
no longer plaues, saws, hammers and chisels the pupil
into the required conventional shape, but teacher and
student are both students, both teachers, companions,
fellow-laborers in the great work of self-development.
The university imposes no rigid nor uniform curric-
ulum of study. Within reasonable limits each student
may select to suit his tastes, talents or necessities. If
a degree is sought, the candidite must not only lay the
broad foundation of general culture and learning, but
must also demonstrate his power of original thought
and prolonged investigation by some larger perform-
ance than is involved in class-room work. The uni-
versity requires for graduation to-day nearly twice as
much work as it formerly did, and the quality of the
work is even more improved.
The university is daily coming into closer touch
with the life of the state. It realizes that it exists for
the good of the state. The problems before it are the
problems that confront the state : problems of crime,
of pauperism, of social unhappiness and disorder. It
is training minds and training hearts and training
bodies that will solve these problems. Its immediate
ta.sk, and possibly its greatest, is to build up a system
of education whereby each child in the state may
achieve the largest possible development of all its
faculties. It recognizes its right and its duty to be
the head and heart of a life-giving system of education
which carries cheer to the humblest cabin, strength to
the weakest child, faith and hope to all that love human-
ity. For this task it has girt its loins ; in this task it
now labors with the zeal that comes from noble im-
pulses and the confidence that is inspired by the clear
perception of a splendid truth. It will not rest until
the coals of learning from its altars have kindled fires
that illumine the state.

TItc (HWtl Hill mtsian.
Manj' years before the location here of the Univer-
sity the place had become fairly well known as a camp-
ing ground for the wagoners between Newbern and
Salisbury ; between Petersburg and Pittsboro and other
places to the south. The famous spring from which
they drank is still to be found near the southwest cor-
ner of the campus ; a small chapel stood on the lot now
occupied by Mrs. Graves' residence. The two most
noted hills on the roads from Petersburg and from
Newbern were those leading up to this camping ground.
The old Strowd hill (recently abandoned), on what is
now called the Durham road, and the hill on the
Raleigh road (now also abolished), lying to the north
of Piney Prospect.
In view of these conditions it is easy to understand
how the place came to be called Chapel Hill; and
doubtle.ss many a wagoner commented on the appro-
priateness of the name when, after a hard struggle,
late in the afternoon, he reached the camping ground
at the summit and greeted a fellow wagoner who, even
after a harder pull, had just brought his loaded wagon
up the other hill. Here, after swapping stories (and
perhaps horses), these wearj' travelers would rest under
the shade of the oaks, already then more than a cen-
tury old, and which for another century since have
given pleasure and comfort to thousands of the young
men from this and other States. Doubtless then, as
now, everyone who has stopped on this hill long enough
to drink the pure and never-failing water, to feel the
delightful breezes that move across these hills, to enjoj^
the shade of these splendid trees, and to see the pic-
turesque nooks and brooks that abound, has departed
with regret.
But few students during their college course tramp
over the region around Chapel Hill as they should, and
among those who were here years ago I often hear
expressed the regret that they had not done more of
this. Indeed, the life of the average student illustrates
how one-sided an affair the ordinary education is. The
average man, though himself a part of nature, seems
to go through life with the feeling that, outside of him-
self and his fellow-men, there is but little in nature
worthy of his consideration. If everj- student who so
comes to the University would, during his college life,
spend one afternoon per week tramping over the hills
and through the ravines within a few miles of the
place, not .so much with a view to getting exercise, but
with an earnest eifort to learn something about the
.soils and the rocks, the springs and the wells and the
trees and the shrubs and the flowers and the animals
which may come in his way, he would not only come
to be a more observant man, but he would gain a fund
of information and a love of nature which would be a
pleasure and a benefit to him as long as he lived.
Even a casual observer can see at once that the
countrj' which lies at the foot of the hills, to the east
of the University, and extends on to Durham and to
Morrisville, possesses characteristics quite different
from those immediately about Chapel Hill. The rocks
of this region to the east, which may be seen to begin
at the foot of both the Stroud hill on the Durham road
and the Cemetery hill on the Raleigh road, are com-
paratively soft, red, brown and graj' sandstones and
shales, which nowhere on the surface are to be seen in
rugged angular blocks like those on the hills about the
town. They decay more rapidly into reddish and
grayish sandy soils, which in turn are more easily
washed away bj* the action of running water than are
the stiffer clay loam soils of the hills. And conse-
quently during the past centuries and cycles of time
the entire surface of country to the east of us has been
worn away more rapidly and more extensively through
the action of running water ; and now that surface is
at a level of from loo to 200 feet lower than the country
to the west. As a result of this difference in elevation,
the streams which rise to the west of Chapel Hill, like
Morgan's creek and Borlan's creek, at this greater
elevation, and flow down into the lower sandstone
region to the east of us, have each of them a rapid cur-
rent, which has in each case carved out a valley or
ravine in which it runs ; and thus it is that both to the
north and to the .south of Chapel Hill we have the.se
deep and narrow valleys, and between the two (on
which the town and University are located) is a narrow
ridge, covered for the most part by soil, though over a
considerable portion of this surface are scattered boul-
ders of rock, and in some cases larger masses of rock
are exposed on the surface.
Of the water which falls as rain upon the back of
this ridge, the larger part of it runs off into the valleys
with rapidity, and as it does so it washes away the .soil
and carves out smaller irregular ravines down the
slopes of the ridge. A portion of this water, however,
sinks into the surface soil and reappears at the springs
about the margins of the ridge, some but little below
the top, like those within the University campus, and
others nearer the base of the ridge. Still another por-
tion of this water which sinks into the surface .soil
gradually finds its way into the wells in the University
campus and scattered through all portions of the town.
Instead, then, of our drinking water which, in some
mysterious way, flows in underground currents from
the mountains, we drink that which falls as rain and
soaks down through the soil immediately about us.
The soil thus acts as a great storehouse of water ; and
in long dry seasons, if the supply is not replenished
from above by rains, the springs and wells sometimes
go dry.
It will be readily understood that this carving action
of the water would .soon remove all of the surface soil
of the ridge but for the fact that the surface is protected
by the forest growth which covers it, and the rocks are
decaying and thus furnishing new supplies of .soil
from below. It will be readily understood, further,
that if this decay of the rocks and washing action of
the water is continued into the indefinite future, the
entire ridge will be removed. But whether at that
time the fraternity or anti-fraternity faction of the Uni-
versity is in ascendancy — the greatest question on
earth ; whether or not then the President has secured
the "hearty co-operation of the students" — which he
ought to have all the while ; or whether the University
will at that time have opened its doors to women — as
it ought to have done long ago ; or whether it will
then be known who steals pants from the faculty, are
questions which the future alone can tell.
Rain-water and water from these springs which runs
down slopes of this ridge, on both the north and south
and along its eastern end, has thus carved it into all
sorts of irregular forms, the variety of which furnish
interesting points of studj-. One of the most interest-
ing of these is the ravine which, starting from the New
East building extends down through the Battle Park
and opens out to the eastward into the valley of Bor-
land creek.
It is often a good plan to have some method about
one's pleasure tramps as well as about one's work, and
it would be a good plan if every student who feels any
inclination to tramp over the countrj' around Chapel
Hill would select each time some one of these little
ravines ; start at its beginning near the top of the ridge,
follow it along its course, observing the location of the
springs, character of the .soil and of the trees and other
objects lying on its route, and follow it until it opens
out in some one of the larger valleys : later follow the
ridges and then cross from valley to ridge and from
ridge to valley.
First of all, one should .see Bailie's Park, .should fol-
low it from end to end and from side to side. He should
see it in the spring, when its flowers are arrayed in all
their loveliness; he should see it in the autumn, when
the colors of the leaves of the trees and shrubs are so
beautifully developed, and he should see it in winter,
when the mosses and lichens and a few other hardy
plants can be found to the best advantage. Near by
one should see Piney Prospecl, from which he overlooks
the sandstone valley to the east, and the view from
which needs only a large, white farm-house and a small
lake to make it all that one could desire. At another
time one should wander down the brook which leads
.southeast from the University beyond the cemetery
(except do not look at the cemeterj' as you pass by).
There one will find, where two little brooks come
together," The Meeting of the Waters " where the large
rock boulders are covered with mosses and ferns and
the steep slopes of the hills are covered with flowers
and shrubs and trees.
No one who can stand the longer tramp should fail
to visit Laurel Hill, on Morgan's creek, some two miles
distant from the University. Here, on the steep north-
ern slope of the hill grows luxuriantly the rhododen-
dron or laurel, which in some mj-sterious way found a
lodgment here and on the north slopes of the Occonee-
chee hills near Hillsboro. This is quite diff"erent from
the ordinary rhododendron of the mountain region,
and grows only near the tops of the higher mountains ;
consequently its occurrence near Chapel Hill and
Hillsboro is difficult to explain. A mile up Morgan's
creek from Laurel Hill, and also about two miles from
the University, is another interesting, picturesque place,
" Otey's Pe/real"; a place where rugged, rocky bluffs,
covered with ferns, jasmine and other wild flowers,
jut against the borders of the creek ; and where Bishop
Otey, during his connection with the University, is said
to have gone whenever he desired to retire from the
noise and bustle of Chapel Hill to a place of ab.solute
quiet. Just across the creek from this the kalniia, or
ivy, that beautiful shrub which abounds all along the
streams in our Piedmont and mountain counties, occurs
in considerable abundance, and may be seen in full
19
flower in the latter part of May ; and on the bluffs a
little higher up the stream the rhododendron or laurel
may also be found in abundance, flowering late in April.
In tramping toward the north from Chapel Hill,
everyone should visit Gleyihirnie, which may be easily
reached from the Hillsboro road by turning up Borlan's
creek along the borders of the mill-pond ; and those
who can bear a longer tramp (and every student can)
should by all means visit the iron mine, which was
opened up between 1880-82, about a mile and a half
northwest of Chapel Hill. The size and direction of
the deposits of iron ore to be found here can be seen
from the map of the region published by the North
Carolina Geological Sur\-ey, in the Report on Iron Ores,
in which will also be found a description of the deposits
of ore.
These are but a few of the picturesque spots which
may be found in every direction within a few miles of
the University. He who searches out these places
and visits them in that spirit which becomes a student
will thereby add greatly to the pleasure and profit of
his life. He who fails to do this will on many occa-
sions have cause to regret his failure.
HISTORY OF FACULTY.
GEORGE TAYLOE WINSTON, B. LITT., A. M., LL. D.,
President of the Universitj', was born in Windsor,
N. C, October 12, 1S52. His ancestors on both sides
were native North Carolinians, being English on the
one side and Scotch-Irish on the other. On his father's
side he is related to the great Patrick Henrj', whose
mother was Sarah Winston, and on his mother's side
to Colonel William Bird, of Westover. His uncle,
Frank W. Bird (Compan)- C, Eleventh North Carolina
Infantrj'), led the charge of Pettigrew's Brigade at
Gettysburg and brought out the only flag saved to the
brigade.
President Winston's preparatory education was re-
ceived at the celebrated Horner School, O.xford, N. C. ,
where for three and a half years he received the train-
ing of that great teacher, Jas. H. Horner. He entered
the University at the early age of thirteen, and re-
mained two years, until the troubles of Reconstruction
closed its doors. He then entered the United States
Navy Academy at Annapolis, having been appointed
by Andrew Johnson. Here he also remained two
years, but resigned on account of sea sickness and dis-
like of the service. He was No. i in his class at the
time. Entering Cornell University, Ithaca, N. Y., he
was graduated with very high honors, having received
the Latin prize and having been appointed instructor
of mathematics in his senior year. He came from
Cornell to the University of North Carolina in 1875,
having been elected Assistant Professor of Literature.
At the end of the year he was promoted to be full Pro-
fessor of Latin and German. In 1885 he was made
Professor of the Latin Language and Literature, and
the department of modern languages was created with
Professor Toy in charge. In 1 891 he was unanimously
elected president of the University. Since his presi-
dency the University has grown in numbers from 198
to 534, and there has been marked expansion of the
University in all its departments. He has fostered
athletic sports and placed gymnastic culture upon a
strong and lasting basis.
President Winston belongs to some half a dozen
national societies for the promotion of scientific,
historical, literary-, economic or other research and
advancement. He is a member of Phi Beta Kappa
(Cornell Chapter), Alpha Theta Phi (University of
North Carolina Chapter), Chi Phi (University of North
Carolina). He was a student in the University under
the old regime, was present at its death in 1868, and
aided in its resuscitation in 1875. He is the only mem-
ber of the faculty of 1875 now remaining in the
University.

HON. KEMP P. BATTLE
Was born near Louisburg, North Carolina, Decem-
ber 19, 1831. He spent his early youth in Louisburg,
Raleigh and Chapel Hill, and entered the University
of Xorth Carolina in June, 1845, graduating in 1849,
with the first distinction in all his studies. After grad-
uating, Dr. Battle was for one session tutor of Latin
and Greek and was then chosen tutor of Mathematics,
holding this position for four years. In 1854 he began
the practice of law, locating in Raleigh, and immedi-
ately took a prominent part in the public affairs of
the day.
In 1862 he was made president of the Chatham
Railroad Company, and was State treasurer 1865-8.
He then retired from political life, and continued the
practice of his profession till his election in 1876 to
the office of President of the University of North
Carolina. By his great zeal and activity he built up
the University, then suffering from the effects of the
Reconstruction period, but resigned his office in 1891,
being succeeded by Dr. Winston, the present incum-
bent. Dr. Battle then accepted the Chair of History,
which he has occupied since that time. He has written
many monographs on subjects of historical interest,
and is a recognized authority on North Carolina
history.

With unrelenting regularity the Old College Bell
has i^ealed forth its thousands of strokes marking the
approaching close of another scholastic year, and the
class of 'go is already on the way to catch up the mantle
about to fall from the shoulders of its predecessor.
Everything speaks of the beginning of the end. The
dignified Senior of thoughtful mien, upon whose mind
are just dawning the cares and possibilities of the
world, and who realizes with a start the fast narrowing
strip that lies between him and the great, broad world
beyond ; the Sophomore, carrying upon his shoulders
the weight of worlds ; and the Freshman, — Ah ! the
Freshman ! counting in his eager anticipation the days,
nay, the very hours, ere he shall cast aside his fetters,
and tread the earth a free man and a Sophomore. And
commencement, too, his first commencement ! what a
world of wonder and excitement and dazzling splendor
and amazement the very word conjures up in his
mind ! A fairy world of enchantment, of bright figures
and tumult, while the gray old buildings look down in
open-eyed amazement at the unaccustomed gaiety and
bustle. Where embryonic orators awaken echoes that
have lain sleeping for a year, and old alumni meet
again in Society Halls to jest and joke, and remind
envious younger members, with a sigh, of the "happy
hours spent within these walls"; when dances, cotil-
lions and banquets crowd closely on the others' heels,
and leave no time forthought, and every care is drowned
in a very delirium of joy, while the glorious waltz-
music "builds and thrills in the souls as rose the sunny
dome of Kubla Khan."
How hard it is when all else is looking forward to
and living in the future, to turn back and rake up the
annals of a year that is gone ! Yet when the blaze and
splendor of commencement has spent its force and only
the dead ashes of memory are left to recall the bright
hours that like a meteor's flash came and were gone,
you find a sad pleasure in turning back if perchance
you may find some precious jewel lying hid among
the ash ; so here too we may chance upon something
stowed away back in memory's dark and musty corners,
some half-forgotten scene or incident that brought to
light brings a feeling of gladness to the heart living
over again the days of college life.
The past year has been in many respects a most
notable one — notable for the long upward stride of the
University, notable for the many changes wrought in
our lives during that time ; all of which assures us that
the year has not been spent in vain, that we are nearer
the goal to-day than we were yesterday, and will be
nearer still to-morrow. Nor has this growth been one
of surface merely. For though we may well point
with pride to the gratifj'ing increase of numbers during
the past 3'ear, we must look further and deeper to find
the true spirit of the change; we must find it in the
increased and broadening spirit of liberalit)- and toler-
ance, in the gradual extinction of caste and class preju-
dice, in the growing demand that worth alone be made
the test of recognition. To it must be traced, directly
or indirectly, every change that has come about in our
lives. It has shown itself in the Society Halls, in the
Lecture Rooms, on the Athletic Field, in the govern-
ment of the University. It has asserted that men shall
be free to follow the bent of their minds. That the}-
shall not be hampered and tied down by old laws and
customs which, though applicable in the time of our
fathers, are surely not, for that reason, binding now.
It has as.serted that vice must go, that the University
has no place for, nothing in common with, any act or
deed which is not in accord with the highest spirit of
manhood and honor.
The age is one of change, of revolution, of prepara-
tion for a new century. All over the world men's
minds are filled with excitement and expectation.
War and rumors of war are rife. It is the death agon}-
of an old centur}-. "Monies parlurif?il" — a new cen-
tury will be born, a century of marvelous improvements
and progress. Yet ju.st as this development must be
attended with much trouble and toil, so also must we
have our little eruptions and explosions. The changes
wrought have not been without friction, for men
wherever thej- be are loath to leave the beaten track.
Yet we may congratulate ourselves that in the midst of
such confusion, when there was every temptation to-turn
back, where a false step would have meant ruin, per-
haps, we have pressed steadily forward over rocks and
through breakers, guided by the strong common sense
and spirit of justice inherent in the student body, to a
point where we may well wait to rest a season before
renewing the struggle. For w^e mu.st not believe that
the goal has been reached. Much work is yet to be
done. The struggle is only just beginning, yet with
sails ready trimmed, the anchors of custom that have
held her chafing so long are sliding up over her bows,
and with trusty pilot at the helm the old University
springs forward to take her place in the race and to
stop — only when the goal is reached.
Everything has changed — student life and customs,
the campus, even the very buildings themselves. One
returning after an absence of a few j-ears might .search
in vain for many a familiar old landmark, many a dear
old friend, where now only a green mound serves to
mark the spot on which once some majestic old oak or
elm stood. Strange faces meet him at every turn.
The roar of the dynamo and the press-room deafens his
ears, and the glare of the arc lights dazzles his eyes.
Disconsolate he wanders from Memorial Hall with its
unaccustomed noise and bustle down to the old drug
store on the corner, where once kindred spirits were
wont to assemble on a lazy spring afternoon, where
upturned boxes and rickety stools were made to do
double duty, and a chair offered a tempting bait to be
secured by fair means or foul. But even this has
changed. A glaring sign bearing the legend, " Uni-
versity Book Store " meets his eyes, and strange forms
hurry past with never a thought of pausing to do honor
to the memory — hallowed spot. The spirit of change
has swept over all, and with a sigh he turns to go,
when listen ! and at the sound a flood of memories
sweep over his .soul, and blotting out the anxieties and
toils of years carry him back to the days of his own
college life.
29
Old College Bell ! thou alone hast remained un-
changed through all the ceaseless turmoil and confu-
sion of the little world which has swept and surged
about thy feet. From thy home in the cobwebbed
tower thou hast kept faithful guard over thy sleeping
charges through the silent watches of the night ; thou
hast called them forth to a new day's duties ; thou hast
gone with them through all of its pleasures and sor-
rows. How often on the eve of some hotly contested
struggle on the Athletic Field hast thou poured forth
in ringing tones, mad and joyous, the glorious tidings
of Victory f Victory/ and honor for old University of
North Carolina, until in thy mad glee, thy very throat
seems bursting with the clear, strong, exultant notes,
" rising and falling, echoing and interlacing in endless
curves of .sound, orb within orb, intricate, wonderful,"
while the stately old oaks unbend their dignity and
their branches leap and dance, " Keeping time in a
sort of Runic rime to the music of the Bell." How
often hast thou, when our hearts were weighed down
with the despair of defeat, soothed and healed our
wounded spirits, while the air throbbed in unison with
thy sounds, and the lonely owl from out his home in
the dark oak returned his answering note. Old Bell,
thou hast indeed bound our hearts to thee with hoops
of steel, and as thy sounds are borne on forever through
the limitless extent of space, never stopping, never
ceasing, so shall they continue forever to ring and echo
within our hearts.

•:• •;• THE LAW CLASS. •:• •:•
The Summer Law School had hardly closed when the
Law Class of 1895-96 entered the University' for weal
or woe. Though not quite as large as the preceding
class, it can be truthfully said that it consists of much
fine material and, in all probability, will give to the
state some of its greatest lawyers.
They are a studious, diligent, hard-working lot of
boys, and many of them have already shown the grit
and tenacity that is necessary to attain success.
But it is not the intrinsic merit of the University
law students that make them stand .so well in the eyes
of the world.
They could hardly fail to succeed after having been
privileged to imbibe the words of wisdom and advice,
and listen to the instructive lectures and master the
well selected cour.se of legal instruction provided by
Dr. Manning.
Many are the virtues that we find in the genial pro-
fessor of law ; gentle, kind and sympathetic, yet withal
exacting enough to require faithful and honest work,
he has idolized himself with his students.
THE MOOT COURT.
In addition to the regular course of instruction, the
boys conduct a Moot Court everj' Saturday night, and
it is of wonderful benefit to them. It is there they
polish up for the active work they are about to engage
in and secure the very practice they need.
Some of the cases conducted by the members of the
present class were very adroitly managed, and much
interest has been shown and many strong arguments
made.
THE MOOT CONGRESS.
The members of the class realizing that it is expected
of a lawyer that his knowledge be not confined to the
law alone, early in the spring .session organized a Moot
Congress, .sessions of which are held regularly every
Monday afternoon. The Congress has been of very
great advantage to the class.
The members introduce and discuss such public
questions as they see fit, and advance such ideas as
they think wise. It has been liberally patronized and
promises to be a regular feature of the Law School.
The Historian rejoices that the year has been so
pleasantly and profitably spent, and although his func-
tion is to chronicle past events, he takes the liberty of
predicting bright futures and successful careers for his
class-mates, and with the sincerest gratitude thanks
our professor for his devotion to the class, as shown by
his faithful work and the many courtesies shown its
members. With best wishes for all.
The Historian.

It is with a feeling of the greatest pride that the
historian finds it his privilege to discuss the merits of
the Class of '96, the largest, most accomplished and
perhaps the "Hansoniest" that has ever graced the
walls of our noble institution, and according to
"Dick" we are much superior to either of the two
preceding classes — '95 was "no good" and '94 ran
away with his bones. Of course nothing like stealing
bones will apply to '96.
It would be impossible to give a connected history
of the class, for many have been the deserters, and
others have been added to the roll, so that we can
scarcely say it had a beginning, but it is an evident
fact that Chemistry and Materia Medica will play an
important factor in its ending.
Perhaps no class in college can boast a greater
variety of characters of every description imaginable.
Verily the wilds of Western North Carolinia and
"The Land Beyond the Woods" have furnished us
with " Hoosiers," while the Sand Banker is not found
wanting; Joyner is almost the peer of Sullivan and
the equal of JimCorbett; while little " Nick" spends
the hours of twilight weeping for his mamma.
From the athletic field we have not been absent.
Graham has distinguished himself as right fielder on
the baseball team, and in football Steele is not slow ;
and what would the Glee and Mandolin Club do with-
out our " Funk," who prides himself as almost a
musician. Our record in the class-room is one that
is able to stand for itself, and the class is credited by
our honored preceptor as being the best and most
studious ever under his instruction, and well may he
say it when more than two-thirds of the class made
over ninety-five per cent on anatomy. And right here
it would be well to speak of our able and beloved
instructor, Richard H. Whitehead, whom we have
found to be not only a teacher, but a kind and
sympathetic friend, and there is not a man in the class
who will not carry through life an indelible impres-
sion of his noble nature, and ever see in him an ex-
ample of the man, the doctor and the scholar worthy
of the highest efforts to emulate. The year has been
one of pleasurable profit and a long step forward in
the embryonic stages of the occult sciences and the
magic of the philosopher's stone, and let us all hope
that it may develop in an M. D. of the highest type,
and that each one may win for himself great dis-
tinction in this glorious profession.
When we have attained all the powers of the
"Healing Art," and when in the whirl of a physi-
cian's life, happy indeed shall we all look back with
pleasant recollections of the bygone days of the White
and Blue, when the first principles were so thoroughly
taught us. Historian.

r /^OMMENCCAAEMT.
Ah, love seemed to shine
III Maud's lovely eves !
With rapture divine,
All smiles and no sighs,
I thought she was mine —
At Commencement.
My number was naught,
I found out full soon :
She gave me no thought,
"A cute Gimghoul spoon "
Was all she had sought —
At Commencement.
Klizabeth's grace
Was light as a puff
Of air, and her face.
Caught me in her fluff
Of ribbons and lace —
At Commencement.
But that dimpled face
Concealed a coquette —
She wore 'mid her lace
My captured rosette.
And left me no trace —
At Commencement.
And Katie's so winning —
Who wore Cupid's flag.
For mere fun of pinning
M)- blue and white " rag ! "
Then sent my heart spinning —
.\t Commencement.
Though deep went that dart,
I found love a failure :
Too soon did we part.
But she wore my i egalia
Right over her heart ! —
At Commencement.
Well, three may forget.
I'd leave law or clinic
To talk to one yet ;
For I am no cj-nic.
Though girls will coquette —
At Commencement.

Together with the

Ibistor? of Sbakeepeare Club.
The Club is composed of forty-seven members and
meets monthly, at the call of the president, for consid-
eration and discussion of Shakespeareans primarily.
Frequently, however, the evening is devoted to the
Greek, Roman. French or German Drama.
The Club is mainly the organ of the senior class in
literature. It furnishes the medium of expression for
the best literary thought in the Universit}\ It stimu-
lates and encourages independent investigation of criti-
cal questions.
For instance, if the evening were devoted to the
heavy plays of Shakespeare, such papers would be pre-
sented as : " From Tavern to Throne, or the Develop-
ment of Hal's Character; " " Henry V. on the Throne,
or Shakespeare's Ideal King;" "The Resurrection
of Falstaff, or the Merry Wives of Windsor."
Should the evening be given to the German drama.
such an author as Lessing would be discussed as he
appears in Minna Von Barnhelm, Emilia Galotti and
Nathan der Weise.
The relation which the Club sustains to other En-
glish Literature than Shakespeare can be seen from
such a programme as this : Two dramatic methods of
treating the .same subject — Marlowe's Jew of Malta
and Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice ; Narrative and
dramatic method contrasted in Chaucer's Knights'
Tale and the Two Noble Kinsmen of Shakespeare and
Fletcher ; Browning's Paracelsus, a drama of the
inner life ; The influence of the Latin comedj' on
Shakespeare.
These are not fanciful subjects, but were actually
discussed during the past year, and serve to show the
great benefit of the Club and the important place it
occupies in University life.

The Elisha Mitchell Scientific Society was founded
in the year 1883, the object being to encourage scien-
tific research and to record such matters as pertain to
the natural history of the State. The membership is
now restricted to the faculty and students of the Uni-
versity. The meetings are generalh' held on second
Tuesday of each month. The student has the oppor-
tunity of spending an hour or so, hearing valuable
papers read and discussed. Should he so choose, he is
given the further opportunity of reading some paper of
his own.
It is now in its twelfth year. By the e.xchange of
the Journal with over three hundred scientific jour-
nals and periodicals ten thou.sand books and pamphlets
have been collected, all of which are arranged in the
Universitv Librarv.

DIES IRy^.
O day of wrath ! that awful day,
When " Wince" shall hither turn his way
And fall upon nie as his prey !
My quaking heart shall fear his face,
My strength will then have run its race.
When he shall swiftly judge my case.
His voice, with pealing trumpet's blare,
Resounding from his head (less hair).
Shall call me to his awful lair.
Strength shall be stupefied, and thought
Into a chaos quickly wrought
When I th' avenging wrath have caught.
() wretched me ! what shall I plead
In that hour of my greatest need,
When like a 'possum I am treed?
His great "probation " list he'll bring
And from me great confession wring,
Mv stricken carcass homeward fling !
This dreaded judge shall then bring out
What has been hidden, without doubt.
And every thought of safety rout.
O day of wrath ! O tearful dav !
When "Wince" shall hither turn his way.
Be still far distant, this I pray !

HISTORY OF Y. M. C. A.
The Young Men's Christian Association of the Uni-
versity was organized in May, i860, being among the
first college associations of the world. Little, however,
can be said about its early history, for it was soon to per-
ish in the troublous times of war. It was revived in Sep-
tember, 1876, to fill out a longer and more useful life.
Ever since its revival the work and influence of the
association have been steadily increasing until now it
occupies a prominent place in our university life.
This year we have a strong association. It is evident
the students take an active interest in the organization
from the fact last year and this over nine thousand dol-
lars have been subscribed toward a building.
The association is the center of the religious life of
the institution. This will be more keenly realized
when we have a building which we hope to make the
home of the religious life of the student body.
The association has done much and is going to do
more toward making men feel at home when they
first come into our midst.
A handbook is gotten out each year. This contains
useful information about college and surroundings,
boarding places and prices.
A notable feature of the work is the reception for
new men, given the first Saturday evening of each
school j-ear. Here the students are welcomed by
Christian workers and members of the faculty. Here
they meet old and new, which helps to make us one.
There is a short service the first three nights of each
week, led by students, a service each Thursday night,
led by a village pastor or a member of the faculty.
A fall campaign is conducted at the beginning of
.session. Men are met at trains and welcomed. Soon
after college opens each man is solicited to join the
association and to enter Christian work.
The organization is by no means isolated in its work,
but keeps in close touch with the great movement of
which it is a part. By means of the state, district and
international conventions, the summer schools at
Northfield and Knoxville and such gatherings, the
association is enabled to keep pace with the improved
methods of work and thereby render more valuable
service to the students of the institution.

The l^Ifin of 33attlr's l\-irk.
know of a sprite who lives in tlie Jarl<,
Damp sliade of a fern-covered dell,
Away down a winding glen in a park.
Whose walks widely known are and well.
Of wily eavesdropper, he carries the name,
Close hid in the cool marsh grass,
And never this brownie's ears tingle with shame
For list'ning at people who pass.
And though him, perhaps, you may never have seen.
Be sure he is there without fail,
And you best speak low, or elsewise, I ween,
He'll hear every word of your tale.
1 saw him first wlien the new full moon
Was climbing a sweet June sky :
When the soft night air was all a-tune
With the breeze songs wandering by.
When 1 held a small hand, and — and — well, I'll swear!
1 did not contract to tell this—
You just remember there's an Eifin down there —
A rascal who'll tell of a kiss.

liitepapy Spirit.
Literary spirit is not a reality but a potentiality in our University ; not
an fssc but a posse. There is a field for it ; there are noble thoughts that
ought to be nobly expressed ; there are clubs— literary, historical, scientific,
philosophical, philological— in which papers have to be read, but in all more
emphasis is laid on 7t'/ia/ is said than on /low it is said. There is a weekly
paper, two quarterlies and one annual, and in all beauty of form is not wed to
beauty of idea.
We need to recognize form in literature; that to say a thing well is as
important as to .say it at all, that a pleasing method of expression means a
pleasant production.
There ought to be a college monthly maintained by student articles. The
University Magazine was only nominally edited by the students. There was
no literary spirit to support it and it did not create any such .spirit. Enough
theses are written, research made, class exercises required in the upper classes
to furnish adequate material for a college monthly if put in proper shape. The
weekly paper has no space for such lengthy articles as could appear in a
monthly. Supported, then, by students, it would create the spirit that would
sustain it. Thus, literary spirit, the absence of which we deplore and the pres-
ence of which we desire, would in some sense be stimulated, and the effort they
made, if itself not successful, might at least point the way to more intelli-
gent action.

SOCIAL LIFE AT THE UNIVERSITY.
One of North Carolina's elite was heard to remark at
last commencement, " What a dear old place Chapel
Hill is. I'd just love to live here always. There's so
much fun ; something going on all the time." She
forgot that at that time Chapel Hill was doing every-
thing to entertain her visitors and that when relieved
of her duties as hostess there is nothing " going on ! "
There are only a very few young ladies in the village,
and, as calling upon the faculty is very unjustly re-
garded in the wrong light by many men, the social life
must of a necessity find its outlet in the societies and
clubs of the university.
There is no more erroneous impression than the one
that a man is nothing unless he belongs to a fraternity.
There are many non-fraternity men in the University
who are more deserving than some of their more fort-
unate brothers, and yet we are safe in saying that the
great majority of the " wit, talent and aristocracy" of
college is to be found among the fraternity men, and
they are the social leaders of student life. The frater-
nities are twelve in number, and at the opening of each
year there can be witnessed a quiet and friendly war
as these struggle hard in the " spiking" or " rushing "
of new men.
A Freshman, if he looks not too green, is at once
taken to some man's room " for a few days until he can
get settled," while some member of a rival frat takes
him to walk to Piney Prospect and Battle's Park. He
is feasted at Yearby's and Trice's and receives every
attention from the older members of the rushing frater-
nities, while all the time the advantages, social stand-
ing and honors of each are constantly drummed into
his ears by their representative men, until he finally
gives the fatal pledge and finds himself dropped
for some more uncertain brother. He has now
learned to notice badges, and in a short while he is heard
to ask some friend "What is that Sphinx with a Pi
Sigma on it? "' and when he learns that it is a Freshman
Society he at once sets about to secure an invitation,
if possible.
In his Sophomore year his ambition is entirely de-
voted to Theta Nu Epsilon, the great inter-collegiate
Sophomore Society. If this is successfully achieved,
there still lies before him the hardest problem of all,
which must be solved in Junior year. Gimghoul is
the most exclusive of all, and, in virtue of its age and
class, still holds the prestige among the class societies.
With this system there is one danger, which should
be carefully guarded against. They should never be
regarded as an end aimed at, but only as a means for
personal development, and in the latter case will be
found of the greatest possible advantage to any man.
The German Club is composed of forty men and
gives two dances annually. At these, however, it is
possible to have only a very few couples.
The Social Club is entirely restricted to members of
the facultv, and deserves no mention here.

A COnMENCEHENT ROHANCE.
"And to think we are in dear old Chapel Hill."
The carriages were coming in from the train packed
with girls and visitors. The pleasures of Commence-
ment Week had just begun. From one of the
carriages Will Raj-mond descended with his mother
and sister and a friend of the latter, Miss Monmouth,
who had made the above remark. " Yes," said Will,
" now you are under my jurisdiction." And as soon as
they had taken seats in the hotel parlor he gave
evidence of his superintendence by handing her a list
of her commencement engagements. At his special
request Ethel Monmouth had attended the finals with
Will's mother and sister, old acquaintances of hers.
He had reserved the appointment with her for the
final dance for himself, but either from an excess of
modesty or a desire to arouse her curiosity his name
was not on the list. "We will find an engage-
ment for that evening somewhere," said Will, with a
significant look, which she hardly understood. While
they were busy commenting on her appointments
Herbert Atkins entered the parlor, shook hands with
some acquaintances of his, and was about to leave
when he caught sight of Raymond and Miss Mon-
mouth. He nodded to Will, hesitated, and with a
perceptible flush walked up to Miss Monmouth and
extended his hand.
"Oh! Mr. Atkins, you here? " said Ethel in wonder;
" I never dreamed of such as this." And another party
blushed deeply. " Nor I," said Atkins ; " it is indeed
a pleasant surprise- " And he colored again. Will Ray-
mond was somewhat surprised at such warm greet-
ings, and as they entered the dining room questioned
Ethel. "Oh! I met Mr. Atkins last summer while
on a visit, and he was so nice," she replied ; " it is such
a strange thing my not knowing he was here"
It was rather a strange coincident. While himself on
a vist Herbert Atkins had met Ethel Monmouth, and
during his stay had become deeply interested in her.
Her sweet and cheerful disposition and her pleasing
frankness had fairh- captivated him.
His visit had been suddenl)- interrupted just when he
was becoming conscious that, somehow, he was hap-
piest in her presence. He had not seen her since, but
he had not forgotten that handsome face. Atkins left
the hotel in a state of happy yet nervous excitement,
his mind filled with the thought of her whom he had so
unexpectedly seen, the memory of whose charming
personality had so continually possessed his mind.
He wondered what could be her relation to Ray-
mond, and was uneasy at the thought. He passed
several acquaintances at the post-office, and while
talking to a friend heard a student near by remark to
another. " Sa}-, Tom! did j'ou see Will Raymond's
friend. Miss Monmouth at the hotel? Isn't she a
beauty though? Will is lucky; Miss Raymond
told me that she and Will are as good as engaged."
Atkins broke off in the middle of a sentence at this
confirmation of his fears, and went hurriedh' to his
room. How cheerless it seemed there to night. The
old student's lamp wouldn't half burn.
1.14
The next day he saw Ethel at the hotel, and at his
request Ethel innocently made an appointment with
him for the final ball. "It is the only one I have
open," said she. How sweetly she smiled to him.
Could he even — hope. So she smiles to Raymond
and to everyone, thought he : it is her cheerful nature.
When Ethel told Will of her final appointment he
started, but concealed admirably his vexation and
dismay, especially as she seemed verj- much satisfied
with her engagement. Herbert saw her at odd
moments when he could for the next day or so,
although she was naturally most of the time with
Will's mother and sister — and Will — he was so at-
tentive.
The last dance was at hand.
What joy was Herbert's that night with such a
partner. The ball-room seemed a fair}' land. Will
was there in full glory, he was chief marshal for
i88 — , and paid, of course, much attention to Ethel.
Herbert tried not to feel jealous of his attention, but
when Will had bestowed on her his regalia ; when she
had thanked him with that sweet smile of hers, his
dejection brooked consolation. How queenlj' she
looked with Will on the floor ! What a pair it will
make, thought he. And he stifled more unpleasant
emotions.
At last the dance ended. Herbert escorted his fair
partner to the hotel, and in bidding her good-night
managed with an effort to congratulate her on her
success. "Yes," said .she, and rather indifferently,
Herbert thought, and he was all ears, " Will is a fine
boy and an especial friend of mine. I certainly ap-
preciate his kindness."
" A friend of yours, ' ' murmured Herbert, slowly and
disconsolatel}', with an unconscious accent on friend.
" A friend of yours," he repeated, with an unvoluntary
sigh. " Yes," said Ethel, brightly, " decidedly a friend.
I don't care for him, although I have tried to, and he
has been so nice to me." She raised her face to
Herbert's with a confidential and affectionate air; his
heart throbbed, oh ! so intensely as he gazed in her
large eyes and saw — hope? — yes, love. He drew her
softly aside into the hotel corridor ; he seized her white
hand in a frenzy of delight, murmuring his devotion
to her. Her reply was a look full of trust and of love.
As if conscious that in itself it were lonely and in-
complete his white dress-tie sought the company of a
pale-blue bow on her bosom; and this harmony of
two hearts, this union of the white and the blue, this
latest e-scapade of Cupid in the Old North State, was
sealed with a kiss.
Just then Will Raymond entered the hotel hurriedly
to have if but a momentary tete-a-tete with Ethel.
She had not seemed so full of regard for him that
night as usual, and he was anxious to speak with her
and allay suspicion that was at least uncomfortable.
He brushed by the couple — stopped, as if suddenly
petrified —could he believe his eyes ! — turned crimson
and then pale, and with an inward groan, reeled out
of the door. Ethel's beaming face, Herbert's ecstatic
look, a crushed sleeve, his own regalia in a rumpled
and disorderly state, had told him only too plainly a
tale he needed not to hear from human tongue.
Next morning on entering the hotel Raymond's
room-mate saw Atkins driving gaily with a handsome
girl for the train, and opening the dining-room door
called to a waiter: "Jesse, carry Mr. Raymond's break-
fast up to him. He is not well this morning."

This ancient and most honorable Order was founded
in the j'ear 1030 b. c. b3- King David in the land of
Judea.
It came to pass that this old gentleman had a son,
Absalom by name, who was full-back on the University
of Jerusalem team, and who persisted in wearing his
hair extremely long throughout the year. Now this
young man was out riding one morning when his horse
became frightened at a passing bicycle and dashed oif
through the woods. The hair of this young man be-
came entangled in the branch of a tree and he was left
hanging there, where soon after he died with the words
" To h — 1 with Va." on his lips.
The father, who chanced to pass that way soon after,
discovered the body hanging there, and in the bitter-
ness of his grief cried out, "Oh, Absalom ! my son !
my son! Why would )'0U wear long hair?" After the
funeral the old man returned to his home and straight-
way founded the Association of Tonsorial Art, which
has waxed great and multiplied exceedingly, and saved
the lives of 13,691 footballists from a similar fate.

^ ^prinfitittue ^b^L
One lazy spring afternoon, when budding leaves,
soft and velvet}', and the balmiest of airs were telling
their story of renewed life and joy, and a soft, gentle
haze overspreading all, marked the near approach of
the "Tassel time of Spring," I without great trouble
persuaded myself that "much study was a weariness
to the flesh," and that for a while at least, "Conies"
and "Psyche" and "Pol. Econ.," and all the rest of
their tribe might well enough take care of themselves,
even if they were a " once-a-week recitation." And so
tossing a Tacitus here and a Dewey there, I hastened
out of my hot, stuff"y room to spend an afternoon in
lazy contentment, drinking in the beauty and freshness
of the wondrous new world about me. Instinctively my
footsteps turned toward an old friend, one whose ac-
quaintance I had formed in that first wonderful week of
my college life — the old " Davie Poplar," that stretches
its huge limbs just across in front of the open end of the
Quadrangle, fit companion to the movable shaft com-
memorating the deeds of a university president. A
royal bed of .softest clover invited to repo.se. And
stretched at full length I dreamily watched the wreaths
of smoke curling upward from my faithful old brier-
wood to the green branches above, where it seemed
to me that fairy hands caught them up and, twist-
ing them into a thousand fanciful shapes and figures,
carried them on up, up, up until they were lost in the
feathery clouds in the distance. Soon the orchestra of
nature lulled me into a half-waking sleep with its
myriad notes, and I fancied that I saw up among the
green branches countless tiny figures and the rustling
of the leaves was the harmony of countless joyous
voices mingling in one grand diapason of love and
honor for the common father of them all. This is the
song that I heard — the song of the "Old Poplar
Tree " :
" Long, long ago, far beyond the memory of living
man, when the first shot had not yet been fired that
was to blaze the way to a nation's freedom, and
powdered wigs and fair damsels held high revel at a
governor's ball in the Capital City, I was born a lusty
young sprig of the forest. And as I grew up, waxing
strong in the clear warm sunlight, the mocking-bird
come to build its nest among my branches, and the
squirrel found protection against the murderous arrow
of the young Indian brave. And my happiness was
complete.
"But soon there came a change. The atmosphere
grew dark and sulphurous and the setting sun was
bathed in blood. I heard the distant rumble of the
mighty engines of war, and now and then the sharp
crack and rattle of the musketry as the contending
144
hosts drew nearer and then surged away. Birds and
beasts fled shadow-like through the silent forest, and
even the blue jay forgot its accustomed notes.
"The years passed and the war clouds rolled away,
but the spell was broken. Soon the axe of the pale
face found its waj- into the heart of the forest and I
saw, with many a misgiving, my brothers and friends
fall before its merciless stroke. And now a home and
then another sprung up, and a little chapel of the cross
— the chapel of New Hope Hill — slowly arose, where
some adventurous preacher now and then assembled
the neighbors on a peaceful Sabbath morn to treat
them to the luxurj' of an orthodox sermon. And
where, after the services were over, the hardened
sons of toil were wont to assemble in little groups,
the women to compare notes on house-keeping and
economy, while the proud owner of a new calico dress
was the envy of ever\- heart ; the men to discuss the
latest news brought by the great covered wagons on
their way back from Petersburg. And with what eager
animation did they listen to the recountal of what was
going on in the great broad world beyond, echoes of
which came now and then to their wondering ears.
Of how Washington had been called from his home to
take the presidency of the new republic, and how, in-
spired by example, France also was preparing to hurl
her throne to the ground, to trample it in the dust.
" And now the scenes change with ever increasing
rapidity, and I beheld first a little party of men making
their way through the woods, hunters they must be.
But no, they are not like the brawny hunters of the
forest. Their skins are fairer, and their dress is finer.
See, they come directly to the spot where I stand shak-
ing with a nameless dread— dread of the pale face and
his axe and his fire, and the other terrors that follow
in his wake. But no, they prove friendly, and pleased
with the grateful shade which, in my desire to pro-
pitiate, I cast about them ; they stretch themselves
upon the green turf to partake of their noon-daj' meal
and to admire the wonderful beauty of my brothers
and sisters, clothed all in holiday attire of royal purple
and golden hues. And my heart swelled with joy
and pride when I heard them say among tliem,selves,
'Surely this is the place; here shall we establish the
mighty institution of learning which, like the young
tree of the forest, shall grow and wax strong and send
out its huge branches in every direction, and whose
influence, as the years roll on, shall penetrate into the
remotest corner of this broad land and shape the destiny
of a people.'
" Spring came and went again, and the young fledge-
ling essayed his untried wings, while the mother
chirped encouragement, as she taught him this first
great lesson of his life. And when the trees were again
changing their mantle of green for one of russet and
brown, they returned, and winding down the narrow
road I beheld a long line clad in garments of wondrous
cut, while at their head marched one erect and stately,
a leader of men. And they came again straight to
where I stood, and there he of the commanding
presence spoke with his fellow men, and they signified
their pleasure at his words. Thus was the corner-stone
of a universitj- laid.
"Then all was confusion. The ring of the axe and
hammer awoke the echoes of the sleeping woods, and
a huge builcling slowly reared its head among the tree-
tops, while the blue jay expressed his disapproval
from my topmost branch. Soon the doors were thrown
wide, and first one student and then another came and
my heart was filled with gladness at my new-found
145
friends. Morning and evening would they come to
lie at my feet while I sang to them of the past and the
limitless possibilities of the future, and life was one
' grand sweet song. '
" Three-quarters of a century passed away and I heard
again the dull wrathful mutterings of war, and saw
with proud, sad heart my foster children go forth to
do battle for their country's freedom. And the tramp
of the invading hosts shook the earth, and the rivers
were dyed with blood in that mighty death-struggle
from which so few were to return. Peace and quiet
came again— the quiet of exhaustion, and I beheld the
remnants of once proud armies limp slowly past in
search of homes they would never find. And the beasts
of the forest roamed through empty halls, and the owl
built her nest in the silent belfry.
"The years rolled on. Once more the doors were
thrown wide, and joyous voices rang through long
deserted halls. [And here I detected a note of sadness,
as of ' old, unhappy far-off things. ']
"But a new generation had arisen that knew not nor
cared for the Old Poplar Tree. My race is run. I soon
must take my place with the other fallen monarchs
of the forest, to be forgotten by those I have loved
and cherLshed most."
And here the voices died away in a moan, and I
awoke to find that night had fallen.
Old Poplar, thy race is indeed nearly run. Other
thoughts, other desires engro.ss men's minds. The
glare of the electric lights dazzles thy eyes, dimmed
with a century's age, and a long bare pole raises its
hideous length from thy very feet. The little feathered
songster no longer pours out his .soul in liquid chant
among thy boughs. Soon thy time-bent trunk, loaded
with memories, as the trunk-shaped trophy of old,
must fall before death's inevitable approach and a
generation that cares not for thy memories. But for
those that know thee and love thee well, thou shalt
ever remain a guiding light in the shadowy "vale of
remembrance ;"
" Photographically lined
I'pon the tablets of our mind."

The '96 HellEnian is finished. And as we hur-
riedly write this final page, there arises before us the
contrast between our book as we planned it and as it is.
How easy it is to make great plans and how pleas-
ant to anticipate, but how fearfully hard to carry them
out. We must acknowledge, though most of us have
done all that we could, that there are many defects in
our volume and many opportunities for criticism. But
however many the defects may be, they must be laid
to the blame of unfortunate circumstances and the
chief editor.
To Mr. Fletcher Bailey, of the Art Committee, is due
great praise for his labors to make that department
most attractive. Also to W. G. Randall, '84, we are
indebted for several drawings.
To our business managers we extend our sincerest
thanks for their untiring efforts.
To our friends in college and alumni we are indebted
for their suggestions and encouragement.
Editor-in-Chief.
