Hark, Ye Knockers ! Bring forth your hammers and
proceed to knock. For several weeks, we have noticed a
knocking expression on your benign countenances, and at
last patience has its reward, for we do herewith present
the much heralded 'Monticola. ' Knock and he exceeding
glad: for great will be the vanity thereof. The 'Monticola'
is here, but its compilers, where are they ?

The editors have taken to the tall and 'uncut' to
repent of their folly in undertaking the work; the busi-
ness manager, to escape his creditors, vanished between
two days, and no trace of him can be found; the members
of the board have gone into hiding, where they will remain
until the storm shall have spent its fury.

Throughout the book will be found knocks and rubs
in verse and picture. Gentles all, we have tried to be
lenient with you and the gentle reminders of your peculi-
arities are given with not a whit of ill-will or disrespect,
but rather in a spirit of friendliness. Be like the Southern
Colonel, who, on being given some cherries preserved in
brandy, said, "I prize the gift not for the value of the
fruit, but for the spirit in which it was given."

This year closes another epoch in the history of the
West Virginia University. In every department a marked .(rtQntiraI ->
increase in fidelity and loyalty has been noticed. Our OS.

athletics have been a source of pride. Last year's base-ball
team was above the average college team and did a credi-
table season's work. The track team was the best in our
history and the showing we made at the meet in Pittsburg
ranked us a leader in that department of athletics.
Anthony McCue, it will be remembered, carried off the
field championship. In foot-ball we were badly handicaped
from the start through lack of material, but the record
made by the team was one of which we need not be ashamed.
and is a credit to the university. The basket-ball team kepi
up the pace set by its predecessors, and, for the lirst time
in the history of the institution, finished the season with
cash ahead. The glee club stands without a parallel. The
various literary societies have had more enthusiasm than
ever; and the debating teams were exceptionally strong.

The work of getting out an annual is arduous even
when there is harmony and union among the students.
But when this harmony is broken and strife is rampant,

the work is more difficult. One thing only happened this
year which marred our happiness; namely, the Fraternity
fracus. since i his trouble affected the 'Monticola' more
m j. I or less, we cannot refrain from saying a word or two.
08. Certain Fraternities, because of grievances, real or imagi-
nary, withdrew from participation in all university affairs
and forbade their members to remain on the 'Monticola'
Board. Furthermore, they refused to allow their pictures
1o he inserted in this hook. We have carried on the work
without them, and have not yielded to impulse and car-
tooned them or ridii uled them in verse, which has been
expected: but we have treated them as apart from the

university, according to their desire. While lamenting the
whole affair, we wish to condemn it in the strongest Lan-
guage possible, regardless of where the blame may rest.
We believe that the Fraternities are on the wrong track
and are staining the fair name of their university. Why
not forget our imagined grievances, and, as a unit, work
to place the name of our Alma Mater where it should he.
among the fairest of the fair.'

The Board wishes to acknowledge its indebtedness and
to express its gratitude to Messrs. Moore and Foreman,
alumni of the school, for their work so cheerfully given.

Mentor Jflebtc J|t£torp

Having completed the work in the Medical Depart-
ment of W. V. \'.. the Sophomore class of 1!").") cast their
garments about them and journeyed into a distant land,
even beyond the mountains and to the seaside where the
tide regularly ebbs and Hows and the seagulls Ian the waves.
Here we took up the work anew iii the College of Physi-
cians and Surgeons as mighty Juniors. Some of our men,
being mistaken lor Freshmen, were called upon to show
their ability as swimmers in the Chemical Laboratory
tank by the second year class, but it did not take many

minutes for ns to demonstrate our superiority over the
underclassmen. After this incident the days flew by with
astonishing rapidity and we were all ''plugging" for the
final Junior Exams. When the Springtime came and the
flowers wrvt' blooming we were called to accounl for the
seed thai had been sown amongst our cerebral convolutions.
When the harvesting was over it, was found thai some of
the seeds had fallen by the wayside, but the greater part
of them had fallen on fertile "round and had yielded
abundantly. It was found thai we as a body had reached

the first rank and that one of our number had so acquitted
himself that he was second to none in all the class. So
ended our first year's work in Baltimore.

When the roll was called at the beginning of our
Senior year, every man was in his place prepared to win
laurels for himself and for W. V. lT. At the present time.
we find no physical signs or clinical symptoms of disap-
pointment on the faces of our men. On the contrary we
note all the marks of success and even the diminutive tow-
headed "Kid" Taylor, says he is going to give the gold
medal to his baby Elizabeth, to assist her in cutting her
teeth.

We have fought a good fight; we have almost run our
course, but before we say good bye to college life we desire
to record the characteristics of some of the boys.

Pearey believes fresh air is the greatest prophylactic
known, and often goes to Lutherville and other suburban
towns.

e cnampeen duckpin

Post and John Oorbin are th
bowlers — High score 46.

Kell and Mahone have made vague and effectual efforts
to grow VanDyke beards.

Campbell is walking in the trodden paths.
Flowers has become a Benedict and is as happy as
"a little boy with a red wagon." The Historian feels
like saying to the others, "Go thou and do likewise."

Talkington believes in studying medicine and attend-
ing lectures when it is convenient to do so.

As this year completes our study of medicine and we
must leave our Alma Mater we bid a last farewell to all
our friends who have been so true in our college life. It
is with regret that we say good-bye to the "old gold and
blue" and the two years which we spent within her walls
shall be to ns always the most pleasant memory.

J. H. STEINBERGER.

On a beauteous summer mom, in
the great valley of the Ohio, there
was once born a bouncing baby boy.
It was a bard matter for the parents
to deeide on a name for the new
arrival, since they were extremely
anxious to give him one that was
not common and one he could be
proud of when be became a man.
After much deliberation, he was
named Johnnie, and Johnnie it re-
mained until he came to W. V. I'.
When the cute manner in which he
mingled with the Co-eds. gave rise
to the name he now bears. "Steeny
the Heart-breaker." The first im-
pression that John made at college
was that of a flirt but now it has
become more serious and we wonder
what it can be that has caused such
a change in the life and manner of
our quiet little boy.

he proudly expanded his chest and
said. '"1*111 studying to be a Doctor."
There are Doctors, and. there are

modesty made him shy of all things

'08.

The coming of great events is often heralded before-
hand by some mysterious splendbr, the advent of striking
phenomena is fell long before the actual arrival. So in
the fall of 1904 was the coming of the class of 1908 felt
days before the opening of the school. The sky seemed
brighter, the campus look on a livelier green, and the in-
structors, the first time for years, appeared with smiles
on their faces and hope in their hearts. There existed
among them an assurance that the year would be a brill-
iant and successful one for W. V. U.

On the day of registration the old students were soon
aware of powerful and superior spirits moving among
them. Even the registrar did an unheard-of thing as a
little hunch of '08ers fame up who had already found in
each other kindred spirits. As they handed him their
cards he loaned hack from his little table and slowly
pushed back the white cap he wore. "Some more Freshmen,
I see. .Most promising class I've seen yet."

And at once this most remarkable class began to show
"the stuff I 'was made of." In the inter-class "rush" with
the Sophomores of that year the '08ers won easily. The
Sophomores realized early thai they ww in danger of
defeat, so after sending up prayers and supinations to
the gods for aid in the terrible struggle to come, they
gathered around them the bravest representatives of

Prepdom, (their closest allies), and met the class of 1908
on the campus. But as often as the Sophs, with frantic
and desperate efforts rushed forward, the '0.8ers swept
them back until they were forced to leave the field, victims
of ignominous defeat.

Thus, when the wonderful class reached that stage of
its collegiate development when it was called Sophomore,
and when it met the class of 1909 in a similar bloodless
combat, it came off the field bearing again the baniui- oi
victory.

In all forms of Athletics the members of the Junior
class have won their share of laurels. In foot-ball, base-
ball, and basket-ball they have distinguished themselves
as well as on the track and elsewhere.

Anions the members of the Junior class numbers those
who in after years will be great statesmen, orators,
engineers, and political and literary leaders of the country.
As they have shown themselves in the past so will they
show themselves in the future, ready and well prepared
for any emergency that may arise.

The illustrious career id' the Junior class with its
noble achievements, its progress and development will serve
as an inspiration for all succeeding classes. It is one of
the cruelties of fate that not more than once in the history
of a college does it boast of such a class as the class of ]'.)()$.

If the class of 1909 were not so well known, a history
of its work, and, perhaps, even its existence would be neces-
sary. But as everyone, who is well informed, is aware of the
merit and the talent of this class, this brief history is
written for the enlightment of the few, who may not for
some reason or other, have as yet, heard of the achieve-
ments of this, the best class that ever entered the Uni-
versity.

In the fall of '05 we organized as a class and held our
first class meeting and election amid the futile assaults
of ever-present Sophomores. At this time, J. C. Gibson
of Ohio County, was elected president.

Last fall found a majority of the class back, and after
the usual class election, and the "Sophomore - Freshman
Kush," the class settled down to work for the year. I\. 0.
Hall of Taylor County, was elected president, and under

his leadership, the class has met with unbounded success.
Early in the year strong marks of superiority began to
manifest themselves.

The value and importance of the class of '09 is every-
where perceived and admitted, and1 it may he said here,
that no one places a higher estimate upon this class than
its own members, each of whom works for the reputation
and welfare of the school and the class. In fact, no one
could be found who would willingly assume the responsi-
bility of representinti' so brilliant a class.

In most, or all of the college organizations we have
members of whom we are justly proud. Many honors
have indeed come our way.

We have a basket ball team and a base ball team,
both of which have never been beaten in any inter-class
games. Besides this, we have representatives on the foot-

ball eleven and the base-ball nine. Nor can it be said that
our class is Lacking in musical talent. Many of its mem-
bers are found in both the Glee and Mandolin Clubs.
There are only a few of the positions filled by Sopho-
■ftlonticola mores> ;111<^ ;l complete list would be almost impossible.
'08. Our class is truly imbued with the college spirit. 11

always stands ready to help and to enlist others in the
greal work of education.

We challenge any class of W. V. I*. to a comparison
of the work done. In fact, we believe, that each member
is a hard working student, who has high aims and ideas,
and who is earnestly seeking to prepare himself for his
chosen life work.

We are indeed proud of the work done in the past
and hope in the future to maintain the reputation already
earned.

In the fall of 1906 there came to the West Virginia
University a class of mighty men. These men, when they
looked upon themselves, said, "Woe unto those who are
against us." When the Sophomores saw these Freshmen,
they trembled and were filled with great terror. Well
might they tremble, for at the hands of these men they
were to suffer many and grievous defeats. Soon there
appeared on the bulletin boards, notices concerning a
Freshman class meeting on a certain evening at six-thirty.
On that evening the earth shook with the weight of opposing
armies. The Freshies came together on the campus, elected
their leader, and prepared to meet the Sophs. Soon there
were shouts from the direction of Commencement Hall,
and the enemy appeared. Immediately the two sides lined
np opposite each other and the bloody battle was on.
Thrice did they meet in dreadful combat, and at the end
the Freshies were announced the victors. Then with shouts

they marched down to the theatre and witnessed scenes on
the stage.

Soon after this victory for the Freshmen, the annual
class field meet took' place. Of course the Freshies were
there. They entered their men in the several events, with
the result that they carried off the honors of the day. The
Sophs, were beaten again. With crestfallen looks they
took their way homeward to tell how the Freshies had
whipped them. They were sad. indeed, and wondered why
such a glorious class as that of 1!H0 had ever entered
school while they were Sophs. So others too have wondered,
then shaken their heads and given up the problem, ('>r
none can understand how a whole class can be so invincible
as is the Freshman.

Soon the next battle between the Freshies and Sophs
was to occur, and both sides prepared for the conflict. At
last the fateful day came, and the classes met on the grid-

iron. The poor Sophs, foughl hard to win but it was impos-
sible. They were lined' up against invincible*. When the
Varsity coach witnessed the Freshmen's grand plays, he
was filled with delight, and drew on the Freshmen resources
-ftfonticola ''"' ^';l,-sit.v men. 'Twas the same old story. The Sophs.
'08. were badly worsted, and. down-hearted, they left the held
with "curses nol loud but deep. "

Still another time were the Sophs, to meet their Water-
loo at the hands of the Freshies. The foot-ball season
being over, the Sophs, began to crow about how they would
"'wipe up the earth" al bnsloet-ball. They thought they

had a fine learn, ind 1. and their hearts were filled with

dreams of revenge. They comforted themselves with the
idea that now at lasl they would whip (lie Freshies. But
alas! the besl rounded hopes may totter and fall, and so
it was with the Sophomores. They met the Freshmen, and
as usual were defeated. Then the air was filled with

"weeping and wailing, and gnashing of teeth." The
Sophs, then fully realized that t 'was impossible to overcome
the Freshies at any point whatever. The Freshmen have
proved victorious in all forms of athletics, and the present
Sophomore class will finish its course with vain regrets
that it was ever destined to contend with such a class as
that of 1!H0.

Not only are the Freshmen great on the athletic Held,
hut also in the class room. They are recognized by the
professors as being id' a higher order id' material than
others. Thus there arc no "flunks" in the class, and no
need to address petitions or prayers for mercy to any
auster council or committee.

In the time to come the Freshmen will keep up their
record. There is surely a bright star which shall guide
their future career.

( fentlemen of the Jury :

We appeal to yon. the world, sitting as ;i jury, In

decide whether we. the Senior Law class of the West Vir-
ginia University, have done our duty as it was presented
tn us. We are going nut into the world in do battles with
mankind in the hope thai success will he ours. Some will
attain wealth, fame and glory, others will Fall by the way-
side unknown, unsung. If any one of our classmates Iocs
not attain the height for winch he will struggle, lie can
look hack to the days when he was a member of the greatest
class ever turned out in the University, thai of 1907, and
there find eomforl for his unsatisfied longings.

It was within the luvast id' this, our class, that the
Honor system was horn. Il was this, our class, that nursed
if into ;i toddling infant and then carefully trained it
into a strong rohust giant. Forever this will stand as a
mark of distinction. Neither storms, the erosion of time

nor warfare will destroy it. for it has been tilled to over-
flowing with the elixir of life and bathed in the fountain
of youth. Why do the other classes in the University
disdain to pass tins same system .' The answer is simple,
gentlemen, jealousy.

We have been accused of rowdyism and creating dis-
turbances maliciously hut the charges are unfounded. It
is true we are noisy at times hut only in the animal side
of that greal love which we bear to our University showing
itself. It is that desire to conquer and do good breaking
forth. This is the spirit which wins. Combine the desire
to conquer with the good angel of love and they produce a
fortification which is unassailable.

No matter what we he, statesmen, lawmakers or lead-
ers, let us not forget the varsity days of the greatest class
that the University has produced, the Law class of 1907.

Junior Hato Jltsitorp

since it has been the custom of preceeding classes to
leave some slight traces of having passed through this vale
of tears, it becomes my pleasant duty to state that we too
have been, and are, diligenl "Disciples of Blackstone." At
the very outset, the Class of 1907-08 held one of the closest
elections known to \Y. V. l\, which resulted in the election
of S. ('. Littlepage as President. He has faithfully per-
formed his many duties and shown himself a promising
star of the W. Va. Bar. It is through his leadership and
the hearty co-operation of the whole class that it stands
today without a peer.

Though few in numbers we are well represented in
every departmenl of Athletics. "Three cheers for Mac-
Intire and Gillooley" was a common cry on the foot-ball
field last Kail. Rupert's name has been in the mouths of
the fans all Spring and his work on the basediall team has
heen a credit (o the ('hiss. Nor can it he said lliat we are

weak mentally. Already the features of our orators. Dayton,
Jackson, and Huff, may be seen in the leading newspapers.
Since we expect their names to become known to the world
it is unnecessary to speak of their part in the [nter-Collegi-
ate debate when their opponents were driven before them
like mist before a sea-born gale.

The sound morals and strong personality of our worthy
I lean and his associates have deeply impressed each member
of the Junior Law Class and never have they been known
to make recitations in the Pre]), department hidious by
unearthly yells as they pass that much-needed department.

Each member <d' the class is a perfect gentleman and
always meets his fellow class mates with a broad smile and
at the same time reserves a much broader one for some
heart-winning Co-Kd. Thus it may be justly said that in
the hearts of a Junior Daw are found two of the most
desirable qualities of manhood. Love and Sympathy.

In writing a history of this class, it must be borne in
mind thai space forbids us writing all that can be written
on the subject. While not Large in numbers, the class
makes up in quality what it lacks in quantity. Some point
out the fact that we are for the 'eagle eyes' of Drs. Grant,
MaeNeal, and Simpson, and should cause the rest of lis to
feel proud of being among the number that today make
up the Freshmen Medics.

We arc especially proud of our noble class officers
who have always done their duty and who were never
absent when needed. Henry Becker, our President, has
been our representative in the (dee Club and his record
speaks for itself. Tall and handsome, Henry has special
favors at Woman's Hall. Our Vice-President is a "Byrd"
Hunter and he usually gets the birds, though 'tis said that
he once had to go to Fairmont to find one. Although our
Secretary is 'Sis.' he has a weakness for young ladies.
Anyone passing through Sunny Side about 11:30 P. M.
on certain nights in the week, will hear the noise of a
score of alarm clocks reminding Sisler that it is time to
leave. 'Pigey' Point has had a very heavy burden upon
his shoulders, but everyone believes that 'Pigev's' shoulders
are broad enough to cany all the cash of the Freshmen
Meds. Grimm, our xi>vy competent Yell Master is not at

all grim although he probably felt that way when he was
put off the train on a certain occasion.

In addition to the brilliant set of officers we have
several men who distinguished themselves along the line
of research work. Prominent among these is our handsome
Glenn Harper who has spent many sleepless nights trying
to find out how food went down the spinal chord. 'Pap'
Taylor tried to demonstrate how to grow a mustache, and.
he was kind enough to carry, in his vest pocket, a magni-
fying glass so we could all see. Doc. Sayre proved to the
entire satisfaction of Dr. Simpson, the difference between
a. Malay and a Man. Every class has its digger and to
C. \j. Hutchinson belongs the honor of being ours. Sylvester
had a. bunch of 'Keys' but he lost it. His sadness for
the past six months is thus explained. Campbell is our
musician (he belongs to the band) and the sad wails
of his music ( .' I can be heard as far as the 'Hick' house.

We wish to express our gratitude to Drs. Simpson and
Grant for their untiring efforts in our behalf. We are
especially indebted to Dr. MaeNeal who has labored for
us in the face of difficulties that weaker men dare not
face. The Fresh men Meds. are here for business and we
trust that W. V . F. may never be ashamed to own us in
the days to come.

(Heard on the foot-ball trips.)
Tune: "Waltz Me Around Again, Willie.

Here's to Coach Forkie who's sure on the porky,

.Sam Hill can't you that plainly see?

A medal he's wearing, but not for his daring,

For bravery at a pink tea.

A tine bunch of ladies were drinking like Hades

And sure would have croaked on the spot.

Had not Coach with vigor jumped in in a jigger,

And manfully kicked o'er the pot.

CHORUS.

Chase me around again, Forkie,

Around, around, around.

I'm in such line fettle I run like Prep Settle,

And don't let my feet touch the ground.

Like a Prohibish candidate running 'gainst booze

I'll run till I run the soles clean off my shoes;

Chase me around again, Forkie,

Around, around, around.

Who is it plays snappy and awfully scrappy,

And slugs his man woefully hard?

Who by his rough playing is all liis foes Slaying

'Cept when from the game he's debarred?

At Wup he went slugging, his man he got huggin

And gave him a terrible jolt;

His man had Abe under, but to bis great wonder

Abe soon had an Abe Overholt.

ciiours.

Turn me around again. Abie.

Around, around, around.

You're such a hugger, a heck of a slugger,

You soon put my back to the ground.

But now on the side-lines we both soon will be,

And then on the game you will gaze wistfully.

Turn me around again. Abie.

Around, around, around.

There's a man they call Tubby, who plays awful scrubby,

As a hero you'll find he's right there

One day he went swimmin' and saved nineteen women

Without even wetting his hair.

When Leahy was gasping, the water was grasping,

Brave Tubby who stood on the bank.

Said: "Men, I will save him, before you can shave him."

Stooped down and the water soon drank.

CHORl'S.

Save me from deatli again. Tubby.

Again, again, again.

He's built like a pretzel, the best in old Wetzel,

Just give three loud cheers for him, men.

No wonder he swims like a duck or a deer,

New Martinsville's water most half of the year.

Save me from death again. Tubby,

Again, again, again.

Benton, West Virginia, April 5, 1907.
My Dear old Eleanor:

I am almost ashamed to write to you after having
waited so long, but I have been so very busy that I have
not had the time to write sooner. You know I am expecting
to graduate this year, and, of course, I have more than
usual to do, as I have to write my graduating essay. There
are eleven in the Senior class. There were only ten of us
last year, but Xettie Marsh came into our class at the begin-
ning of this term. Did I ever tell you about her? She has
lived out in the country all her life, and I do not think she
has been accustomed to very much. All of our class were
surprised when Professor Burke said she could graduate
this year. It seems, though, that she has had a good teacher
at the country school, who prepared Xettie for college.
That "marvelous Miss White" as Xettie calls her teacher.
got married some time ago, and the result is that Xettie has
come to Benton, and is in our class. All of us Seniors
are cross to think that she will graduate with us. You see
we have been together ever since our Freshman year, and
now we do not like a stranger to come into the class at the
eleventh hour.

Xettie is certainly an odd-looking girl. She wears
calico shirt-waists all out of style, a shabby brown skirt
that sa^-s in the back, and a brown hat with two chicken
feathers on it. She acts just as strangely as she dresses.
Sometimes we girls talk to her, and she never answers any-
thing except, "yes" or "no." During the recess period,
she never takes a walk, — always sits at her desk and studies.

Indeed, she hasn't any more life in her than a rag' doll has.

Let me tell you what a silly thing she did one day: I had jftflonttCOla

brought some fudge to school one day and was passing it '08.

around to all of the girls and boys. After I had given all

of the rest, I handed some to Nettie, who was sitting in a

far corner of the room. When I passed the candy to her

great tears came into her washy blue eyes. Now anyone

who cries when a girl offers her some fudge is perfectly

silly. Don't you think so?

Dear me, here I have been so busy telling you about
Nettie Marsh, that I had almost forgotten to say anything
about the prize which Mr. Gray has offered, lie has offered
ten dollars to the Senior who writes the best paper. After
thinking a great deal harder than I generally think, I have
decided to try for the prize. Ten dollars isn 't so much.
and yet it would get me a great many things I want. Of
course, Xettie Marsh is going to try, too. I certainly hope
that she will not get it. If I am not the lucky one, I want
one of the girls or boys, whom I know real well to get tin1
prize. I have decided to write about "A School Girl's
Life." Do tell me something to say, some little suggestions,
you know. I am all in a flurry over this prize. My mind
seems to lie a blank; at first, I thought it wouldn't be hard
to write a paper, but, don't you know, every thing I say
sounds so tame !

Indeed, my dear old Eleanor, I must stop writing
because I have a thousand and one things to do. I hope
that you will not be too busy to write to me very soon.
From your loving cousin,

Margaret.

207

Benton, West Virginia, May 12, 1907.
My Dearest Eleanor:

This is the first opportunity I have had to answer your

very interesting letter. I can testify that a girl is very

busy when she is about to graduate and has to write a

ffclonttCOla prize paper besides. It was perfectly lovely of you to make

'08. those suggestions. I don't know what I should have done

without- them.

Now. my dear old cousin, I am going to tell you some-
thing which I am certain you will be glad to hear. One
day last week, I was reading my paper to Professor Burke,
and he told me, very confidentially, of course, that my
paper was the best of all that he had heard. You see, all
of us have read our papers to the professor and he made
smile suggestions and corrections. Now, don't you breath
it, but he told me that he saw no reason why I should not
win the prize. You may think strange for the teacher to
tell me this, but you see, he is not one of the judges, so
it doesn't matter much what he told me. Professor Burke
also said Nettie Marsh had a very interesting paper. Do
you suppose there is any possibility of her winning? I am
not much afraid of such a thine' after whal Professor Burke
has said about my paper, but just suppose thai the judges
should like Nellie's paper better! But I am going to do
my best to win.

1 do not know whether I shall have time to write to
you again before the coldest or not. However, 1 shall write
as soon as it is over.

Lovingly your cousin,

Margaret.

I*. S. I am having a beautiful white organdy made
l'<>y the contest. It is trimmed with lace and is very pretty.

Benton, West Virginia, May 25, 1907.

My deal- Eleanor:

No doubt you have been wondering whether I won the
prize contest, which was held last night. I imagine you shut
your eyes and tried to see me how I looked in my
new dress as I read my paper. Honey-Bunch, 1 know
you will be surprised when I tell you that I was not at the
contest. I shall tell you how it all happened. About a
week ago, I was sitting all alone in our recitation room at
the noon hour. I did not know that anyone was near until
I heard Nettie Marsh's voice. She was out in the hall, and
as the dlOOr was open. 1 could hear every word that she said.
She was talking to one of the Junior girls. 1 heard her say.
"Yes, I should like to get the prize, but I suppose I can't.
I should like to have the money to give to mother. She
is working so hard to keep me in school. Father is dead,
you know. "

Eleanor. I cannot describe the feeling that went over
me when [ heard these words. All in a Hash 1 saw how
selfish I was and how unselfish Nettie was. Then it entered
my head to let Nettie gel the prize. At first, I must con-
fess, it was very hard for me to give up the idea of the
honor, but every time I was tempted to be selfish, Nettie's
words would ring through my head. I made all sorts of
plans to keep from being in the contest. At last, 1 decided
that 1 would have an attack of the grippe, so last Tuesday
I suddenly became very ill! I told Mamma that I had a
raging headache, and sharp pains between my shoulders.
Of course, poor dear little mamma was very much alarmed,
as it was just two days before the contest, and she wanted
to send for the doctor. 1 assured her that I did not need
a physician as I would soon be well. Mamma made me go
to bed, so I was compelled to be in a scorching hot room a1!

208

day Wednesday and yesterday. The blinds were down and
not a breath of air could get into the room. The blinds
were put down at my suggestion, as I told Mamma that
the light hurt my eyes. To tell the truth, I didn't want.
Mamma to see what a healthy-looking sick person I was.

During these last two days, I have suffered like a
martyr. I have drunk no less than two gallon dandelion
tea, and! have had my back blistered with at least half a
dozen mustard plasters as large as an apple pie. Every
time mamma came into the room, I groaned as if 1 were
in great misery.

Yesterday, I shed a few large crocodile tears, when I
told mamma it would be impossible for me to take a part
in the contest, as I was not very much better. She wrote
a note to Professor Burke, telling him of my illness. Whim
evening came, I was much better-that is. well enough for
mamma to go to the contest. All the time she was away,
I was nervous and excited. I was so anxious to know who

would win the prize that I could scarcely wait for her
return. After hours and hours, it seemed to me, she earnc
home. "Who won.'" 1 almost screamed. "Let me see,"
said mamma, "some girl by the name of Marsh, I believe."

1 was so glad that I jumped out of bed and danced
around the room with joy. "Margaret," said mamma,
much alarmed. "You are sick! Go back to bed this min-
ute." Then I confessed my sin to mamma, and1 strange
to say, she did scold me for my deceitfulness, but only said,
"you poor child!" I am not certain whether she was
thinking of my sacrifice or the dandelion tea and mustard
plasters.

Don't yon think I have written you a long letter for
a sick person.' You must write a letter equally as long to
your cousin,

Margaret.

The poet, the lover, the woman's rights crank

All assign her a positive place.

But it's taken the maker of posters and ads

To make use of her form and her face.

Her molars she's scouring with "Brown's Scrub Them Clean"

As a peach she's an ad. for "Peach Soap."

Be it autos or crackers or candies or gum

Her mug's along side of the dope;

With "Leblache's" or "Mennen's Borated"

She powders herself just for us.

With health foods and flours, cigarettes and pure beers

She shows she's a terrible cuss.

On magazine covers and calendars too

She smiles on us day after day.

The right to display our suspenders and socks

She w-ill probably soon take away;

For her face and her figure are used as an ad.

From Greenland to Fiji's dark isles,

Though she no longer works as a keeper of homes

As an ad. she works hard with her smiles.

You'll find her so pictured and posed everywhere

That you cannot escape here below

And when you are dead you are likely to find

In the next world it still will be so;

So don't be surprised if St. Pete passes out

A harp ad. that's graced with her soul.

And the devil will probably sell patent scoops

With an ad. for her shoveling coal.

Wi)t Heart of ttje (©etstfja/

To walk into a Japanese tea-honse in Tokio, and see a

ifclontttola Greek letter fraternity pin on the kimono of a dark-eyed

08. geisha is such a surprise, that you may be pardoned if your

curiosity should load you to ask how the pin got there.
Picture, if you please, sunny April in Japan. It is the
choicest month in the year. The air is fragrant with per-
fume. There are cherry blossoms, pink and white every-
where. You seem to have been transported into Floral-
land, a, land where life is pleasure.

In such a. land, one bright April morning, John How-
ard, Yale "(14, found himself. lie was a young American
civil engineer, who had been sent by Ins government on a
special mission to Japan. Howard was tall and broad-
shouldered, a typical college-bred fellow. T I is face in
repose, was rather commonplace; when animated, it was
rather striking. When he smiled, which he did often, he
disclosed a sel <d' even white teeth. His eyes, dark and
twinkling, were his most distinguishing feature. You
thought thai they were dark brown; but. when you looked
at them closely, you found that they were dark blue. Yon
never quite go1 over the surprise.

Howard's first week in Japan was a lonely one. lie
was a man of strong affections, and he missed sorely. ao1

only his family, but

boys and Xe

must understand, was the girl he had left behind him in
.Maryland, the girl, who even then was waiting for "-lack"
to come hack-. Al the beginning of the second week. John,
wanidtering by chance into a Japanese tea-house, was greeted
by a bewildering vision feminimity.

A dainty Japanese geisha was asking whal his excel-

lency would have. She was barely five feet in height, but
she was so exquisitely proportioned that she seemed taller.
Her shining black hair was piled in coils on her head.
Through the top coil two jewelled hairpins were stuck at a
coquettish angle. Her expressive eyes wvw dark and so
were her eyebrows. Her eye-lashes were lone1 and curly.
Her mouth was small and of curves best descibed by the
word "Icissable. *' Her kimono of red crepe silk was just
short enough to reveal a pair of red kid sandals. Altogether
the vision was a charming one.

She was the first woman that had spoken to John since
he had been in Japan. He stared so long and so hard
that blushingly she repeated the question.

"What will your excellency have.'"

"Oh!" said John hastily, "Bring me a cup of tea and
si me wafers."

When she returned with the tea. John ventured a
remark. Her command of English was wry poor so that
conversation languished. When John left, she said. "Come
again." That, and the first sentence she had uttered,
seemed to be the only ones, which, doubtless for material
reasons, she knew best.

John did "come again," at the end of the week. And
then the time between his visits shortened until he gol
into the habit of dropping in every day aboul five for his
cup of tea. Onoto, (for by this time he had learned her
name.) was always looking for him, and she was the little
geisha who always served him. Their conversations ^rcw
longer and longer. She gave him many an insighl into
the life of Japanese geisha. John told her all about his

210

college and his work, teaching her many new words inci-
dentally. His fraternity pin interested her most. She had
told him once that the men of her land never wore jewelry.
John, in a. general way, had tried to explain why he wore
the scroll of Alpha Delta Chi. Yon can readily understand
why he did not succeed very well. All that Onoto gathered
was that he loved it very much.

One day, John came into the tea-house rather hurridly.
As Onoto served him, he said excitedly,

"Onoto, I am going away tonight."

She looked at hii

'Going away V

"Yes, I am going hack to America, to the dearest land
on earth," he said jubilantly. He did not notice how white
she had grown.

Yet, in his own way, he was fond of her. "Onoto,

there is a girl back in America waiting for me. ^Vhen I
tell her how good you have been to me, she will not begrudge
\.o you the dearest thing I own — my fraternity pin."

Silently she let him pin it on her red kimono. Then
she lifted her face to his and her eyes were dark with
unshed tears. Against the whiteness of her face, they shone Jilotlticola
strangely. "I shall wear it for ever," she said, as though 08.

registering a vow. Then in American fashion they shook
hands and said, "Goodbye."

That night, on board an American liner. John Howard
thought uneasily. "Onoto seemed pretty much cut up. I
believe she half-liked me."

That night, on her bed of matting, a humble Japanese
geisha prayed to her gods for strength for the future.

jfflp jWatmg iWatct

After an absence of two years I found myself at the
Comraencement Ball of The West Virginia University.

As soon as the hearty welcome of my old friends was past,
I withdrew to my favorite nook from which place I could
see the happy faces Hit before me. and listen to the merry
feet and the sweet *" Hudson Waltz" of the same old
orchestra to which music I had oft danced. Now and
then there floated to my ears above the soft cadence of
music, the suppressed merry outbursts of laughter.

It was a case of heart that drew me back to these
beloved scenes. Dreamily my thoughts turned from the
moments of the present to a picture of the past ; a picture
whose every incident was graven upon my heart for I
had been both hero and martyr. Before me stood the trim
figure of a girl with laughing, mischievous eyes of brown
anil' vvd. smiling lips. She it was whom I loved and had
loved these six years past with all the fiery passion of
youth. How happy I bad been this night two years ago!
Had I not just hope that she loved me with the same
pure passion I held for her? But it was at the gate— at
the gate — Alas!

She had bid played with me, toyed with me, lied to
me all the time. Yet I loved her. And because I loved
her, I had returned to get one glimpse of her before I left
to return I knew not when. In vain my eyes searched
the ball room of the Armory: she was not here. My heart
was too heavy for dlancing this night; I felt a defeated
competitor after the award had been made.

Wearily I got my hat and moved through the conser-
vatory. I no longer heard the sweet music, the laughter,

or merry trip of feet, for my mind had conjured up the
treasured picture of a past day. the sole remaining com-
panion of my jilted heart. As I turned the knob of the
door which led out into the night, I heard my name spoken
by a voice whose familiarity made my heart bound and
rebound, every muscle quiver, and every nerve tingle.
Pain intermingled with happiness swelled up into my heart
like a tidal-wave upon the beach. Trembling, I turned
leaving the door half open.

"Mignon!" burst from my lips.

It was the same sweet girl who had spoken those fate-
ful words at the gate. With her large brown eyes spark-
ling with pleasure and a smile diffusing her whole coun-
tenance, she quickly came towards me. As I looked at
her I knew why I loved her so dearly — this beautiful vixen.

"Why, Dick Langmead, where on earth did you come
from.'" she asked as she took my hand.

"I got in this afternoon from Mexico." I replied, and
my hand trembled in hers.

"From Mexico.' What have you been doing in
Mexico.' Come. Dick, sit dlown and tell me all that you
have been doing since you graduated."

I tell her of what I had been doing? 1 sit beside her.
look into her eyes, hear the sound of her voice, feel my
heart, yes, my xevy soul sick with melancholy.' \'o. this
was more than I sought. A man has the courage to face
all difficulties, save to be in the presence of her whom he
loves, but who has refused him. 1 could not relate how
empty life had been since that Commencement Ball; how
utterly desolate and uncheerful home had been, how I had

prone to the Mexican Rockies to be far from all familiar
faces only to think — think — of the Mignon I loved1. I had
lived with nature, conversed with her, and tried to forget.
I could not. No, no. I could not tell her of this. I could
nut stay.
itlontitola "Mignon," I said, "do not think me ungallant, hut

'08. it is necessary that I go, I have a very important engage-
ment at ten-thirty, so important that I cannot neglect it.
It is ten now. I know that you will excuse me for this
evening, won't you?"

"Why, Dick Langmead, what do you mean '. Of course
you would lie ungallant. Do you think that I am going
to let you go so soon ? Xo, indeed. Let the old engage-
ment go. Let it go, db you hear? Come, Dickie, that's
a good boy. "

She laid her hand lightly on my arm, and looked up
at me in the most wistful, beseeching manner with her
Large brown eyes. As I looked into them, I felt myself
drawn to her. He the result what it might I would stay.
I walked with her to a cupid-seat, concealed as it was by
beautiful palms and ferns. As we sealed ourselves the
lovely notes of "Peter Piper" floated in, and my spirits
nearly rose to the point of happiness.

"Now. Dick, that I have broken that obstinate will of
yours, I want you to tell me of what you have been doing."

There was no escape. I must relate all. I took control
of my voice lest she might hear the sadness of my heart.

"Well. Mignon," I began with voice slightly quiver-
ing, "after thai night — that night of the Ball I went home.
For some reason I did not find the wanted happiness there;
tin' familiar faces did nol interest me. I was tired id' balls,
of society, of Salmi prattle; I longed to go out into the
world, not among business men, but where I could be \'vt^'
from all restraint, to live with nature."

"Father had just purchased a large ranch north-west
of Monterey, and I prevailed upon him to give me the
superintendency. Arriving at LI Buenoviento, the ranch's
name, I found things in a most deplorable condition. The
OOW-punchers were a motely crowd of drunkards and thieves.
I discharged them all and secured a force of Texans.
Those whom I had discharged took illwill against me, and
began to steal my cattle as well as shoot the Texans. We
had1 a big fight in October on the Yalo. which we won.
But that seemed to arouse their hatred all the more. With
a force increased by half, they attacked us one evening
before mess with the intent of burning the buildings. We
ran out of the cabins to give fight, and as 1 stepped through
the door, I fell, shot, through the right lung."

"Dick!" Mdgnon broke in on my narrative and
tightly clutched my arm.

"Yes, I was laid up several weeks. Well, my boys
got behind the cabins and nearly annihilated the villanous
gang. After that they never troubled me again."

"Faithfully I worked upon the ranch, never shirking
my slightest duty, but strive as I might I could not be
happy. The boys were kind enough to me; they did all
they could to make me happy, but to no avail. I love
nature: I love to feel the cool, fresh air of the prarie. to
see the beautiful sunrise and miles of green Lrrass. and
hear the lowing of the cattle. But all of this could not
draw the melancholy from my heart. Something was lack-
ing in my life."

"Dick, it was only the presence of a woman that was
lacking. Are there not plenty of Spanish senoritas there.'
1 have heard that they were beautiful, more SO than the
American girl; they love strangers, besides they are usually

well educated."

1 looked at Mignon and found her searching my face

with her eyes as if trying to read my every expression.
She seemed to be eagerly waiting my answer. I could not
understand her interest.

"Yes, Mignon, the senoritas are all of that, but I bad
no desire to marry any. I never made the acquaintance
of one. In fact I did not care to meet any woman. My
heart was too lonely and depressed to seek consolation.
I felt as if I eould stand it no longer, and in dispair I
decided to leave. I made an honest old cowboy captain
and wired father of my departure."

"And, Dick," broke in Mignon, "where are yon going
now ? ' '

"I am going to leave America. I am going to live
in fast society to see if I cannot drown this melancholy;
to forget these cares and pains. No matter at what price
happiness comes it shall be bought. Count de Barnois of
Paris has invited me to live with him, and I leave tomorrow
to accept his invitation. That is my story, Mignon. Now
I must go."

"No, Dick, you must not go to Paris. You must not
try to find happiness in the bowl and among society women.
Go back to Buenoviento and work for your father."

"I can't go back there, I would go mad. To live so
lonely, so isolated, is hell itself. I know that I ought to
go, but I cannot stand it."

"Take some one back with you. Dick, some girl. Is
there not one girl that could make your life happy?"

"No— No," I falteringly lied. I longed to tell her all:
to tell her that I could live anywhere or under any condi-
tions with her. Yet I feared to speak.

"Study hard, Dick. Is there not just one girl who
could make you happy far away from society, from
humanity.'"

Once more she searched the depths of my mind with

her eyes. To look' into Uiem and lie was impossible.

"Yes, Mignon," I replied in a low, tremulous voice,
"there is one girl, but she— she — "

"Refused you, Dick? But, Dick, remember the old
saying that girls do not always mean what they say. Ask
her again."

"I cannot. It is not because I do not love her, for
God knows that I love her to madness. I could not stand
a second refusal. No, I am going to Paris. No more nature
for me," I concluded recklessly.

"No, you are not going to Paris. You are going back
to Mexico. You are going to look after your father's in-
terests as well as your own. Besides, Dick, you are going
to be happy, for you are going to take back the girl you
love.

"Mignon! Mignon!" I cried, "for heaven's sake don't
trifie with me."

"Why, Dick, I am not trifling with you," and she
looked smilingly up into my face.

"You don't mean — don't mean," I arose quivering
with emotion.

"I mean, Dick Langmead, that I am going with you
to Mexico. Why, Dick, I have proposed to you. Couldn't
you see, you stupid, that I loved you that night two years
ago? I have loved you all the time, and I was so afraid
that you would never return. My yirlish vanity nearly
ruined us both. But, Dickie, that is all past, and I love
you a whole lot more now."

Slowly as if in a dream I drew her to my heart, and
as I kissed her upturned lips the sad plaintive tones of
the "Waltz of Dreams" wafted to my ears, but it found
no audience. The ears of my heart were closed to sadness
for I had found my mating match.

0m Censor.

Friends, students, West Virginians! lend me your ears.

I come to laud our Censor and to praise him.

The evil themes we write are scored by Simeon,

The good are sometimes praised by dear old "Pat." jWottttCOla

So was it with our Censor. Our Editor '08.

Will tell you that our Censor was censorious,

And grievously hath the Censor censured us.

Here under leave of Prexie — AND the Censor,

(For Prexie is a lienient, gentle censor.

So are the Profs — all lenient, gentle censors),

Come I to write for our Monticola.

The Censor was our friend, our "firm, good friend,"

But Pow, our Editor, says he was censorious,

And Pow, our Editor, surely ought to know.

Our Censor "canned" a roaring, ripping story

Of local color, ' ' West Virginia Excavated. ' '

Did this in our friend, the Censor, seem censorious 1

And when Pow kicked, 'our Censor then relented.

All Censors should be made of sterner stuff.

But Pow still says the Censor was censorious

And Pow, our Editor, surely ought to know.

You all shoiild know, that the "Profs." who are in the

story
When separately seen, were most indifferent,
Together, they stood pat. And so the Censor
Canned the story. Was this censorious?
Yet Pow still says, he was censorious
And Pow, our Editor, surely ought to know.
We editors read the story, not without laughter
Why then should our Censor deny it to you?

0 judgment ! ! ! Bear with us.

The story never was "0. K-ed by Censor."
