Published Annually by the SENIOR CLASS
of MISSISSIPPI A. and M. COLLEGE
as a slight memorial of our enduring
affections, as an appreciation of his high
ideals, as a trivial testimony of the
indefatigable loyalty he has ever com-
manded from the student bodies for
many years, as a token of our regard
for his unselfish heart, his morality,
his unfailing courtesy, and his
tributes in our behalf, this
volume of "The Reveille"
is dedicated.

N ORDER TO MAKE VOLUME VIII. OF THE REVEILLE A
SUCCESS, WE HAVE ASKED AND OBTAINED THE CO-OPERA-
TIOX OF ALL CLASSES IN COLLEGE, AS WELL AS THE MEM-
BERS OF THE FACULTY. WE HAVE WORKED ON THIS
VOLUME WITH ENERGY AND DETERMINATION, AND IN
PRESENTING IT, WE ARE AWARE THAT IT IS NOT WHAT
WE TRIED TO MAKE IT, OR WOULD LIKE TO HAVE IT, BUT
WE TRUST THAT OUR CRITICS WILL NOT CAST IT ASIDE AS
WORTHLESS.
TO THOSE WHO HAVE NOT ATTENDED A. & M., THE
PICTURES WILL GIVE AN INSIGHT INTO LIFE AT THE COL-
LEGE; TO THOSE WHO HAVE, THEY WILL CALL UP MEMO-
RIES OF HAPPY SCHOOL DAYS. THE STORIES AND VERSES
FROM MEMBERS OF THE DIFFERENT CLASSES WILL SHOW
THE VARIOUS STEPS IN THE MENTAL DEVELOPMENT OF
THE STUDENTS. TAKEN AS A WHOLE, THIS BOOK REPRE-
SENTS THE COLLEGE IN ALL THE DIFFERENT PHASES IN
A WAY THAT NOTHING ELSE CAN, AND WE HOPE THAT
WHEN THE 'l2 REVEILLE IS WEIGHED IN THE BALANCES
OF PUBLIC OPINION, IT WILL NOT BE FOUND WANTING IN
THE ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS OF A PUBLICATION OF ITS
KIND.

William Newton Logan, A. M., Ph. D.
THE honored subject of this brief biographical sketch was born at Barbours-
ville, Knox County, Kentucky, November 4, 1869. He is a descendant of
refined cultured parents, who were active and prominent in the affairs of his
native State.
In his early youth, Mr. Logan's parents moved to Kansas and he obtained his
elementary education in the common schools of the district. From the common
schools, he went to the High School and was graduated from the Beloit High School
in 1889. At this time, he began his work as a teacher and taught the District School,
though continued his education by attending Campbell University. After teaching
two years in the village schools, he was elected teacher of Science in the Beloit High
School, from which he was graduated only three years before, but resigned in 1893 to
enter the University of Kansas, where he excelled in scholarship and graduated in
three years with the degrees of Bachelor of Arts and Master of Arts, thus leaving a
brilliant record to his credit.
While attending College his perservering energetic spirit showed itself, more and
more, and he spent his vacation months in teaching Summer Schools and in work on
Geological Surveys. At the completion of his College course, he was elected Superin-
tendent of the City Schools of Pleasonton, Kansas ; but resigned this position at the
end of two years to accept a Fellowship in the Geological Department of the Uni-
versity of Chicago, where he could complete his University education and develop his
talents doing research work. This graduate Fellowship was won over a large num-
ber of worthy competitors and gave him a place of prestige and distinction in the Uni-
versity from the very start in his graduate work. Rich success marked every step of
his progress and his brilliant work in the Department of Geology was crowned with
royal honors in 1900, when the degree of Doctor of Philosophy was conferred on him
by the University of Chicago.
Dr. Logan was next called to accept the Professorship of Geology and Miner-
alogy at St. Lawrence University, Canton, New York; he held this position three
years and in 1903 resigned to accept the position of Professor of Geology and Mining
Engineering in the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Mississippi, which he has
filled with great credit and distinction. In taking charge of this Department, he
entered at once into the spirit of his work and soon identified himself with the condi-
tion of the College, and took up the lines of Geological work needed to be done in the
State and whicn would furnish valuable information and be highly beneficial to the
WILLIAM NEWTON LOGAN, A. M., Ph. D.
101&
farming classes. His work and services in the Institution and the State have been
entirely satisfactory to the College authorities from the very beginning and by his
energy, skill, and perseverence, he has succeeded in building up his Department until
it is one of the most popular and important Departments of the College.
Dr. Logan has had wide experience as a Geologist in practical work: he was
assistant on the Kansas State Geological Survey from 1895 t0 1897 and again in
1900; he was collector for the Field Columbian Museum of Chicago in 1898; he was
a member of the Wyoming Scientific Expedition in 1899; he was assistant on the
New York Geological Survey in 1902; and he has been an assistant on the present
Geological Survey of Mississippi since its inception, where his published bulletins will
speak for themselves. He is a Geologist of national reputation and was honored for
his scientific attainments by being elected a member of the Sigma Xi of the Univer-
sity of Kansas ; an honor that has been conferred on few of its graduates. He is a
member of the Geological Society of America, the Kansas Academy of Science, and
other scientific bodies. His investigations and written papers and monographs cover
various phases of the geology and mineralogy of Kansas, Colorado, Wyoming, South
Dakota, New York, Mississippi, and other States. He has contributed many valuable
articles to scientific journals and his writtings are quoted as authority in many of the
standard text-books on geology. But his culture as a scholar is not limited to the field
of geology, and he has contributed many acceptable articles to the standard literary
magazines.

JETTA DENNIS, Starkville, Miss.
[ndustrial Pedagogy.
"Jetta" has been our Co-ed for the past three
years, having become a member of our class in 1909.
As a student, she is unequalled, and her attractive
manner has won for her the place of "Class
Favorite." While here, she has never been known
to lose her temper, but on the contrary, has a smile
for everyone. We are justly proud of our Co-ed,
for truly she has been an ornament to this famous
class of 1912. Her favorite pastime is spending her
leisure hours in the Library with a certain Lieu-
tenant.

having entered "Prep," has travelled a long, hard
road, but each year he has surmounted all obstacles
and made himself master of all he has studied. He
is full of fun and there is not a man in the class who
has more friends. A great admirer of the opposite
sex. he expects to make his final choice very soon
after graduation. Besides being an excellent stu-
dent, he has taken deep interest in athletics. We
wish him a happy and successful career.

"'Daddy" Allen is very quiet and has an easy-going
manner. He always believed in going ahead to
classes at times when others would "cut." He has
had some trouble with his work, but we think he has
made good use of his training. He is one of our
few who came from the Delta, and is prepared to
return and be a detriment to the boll weevil, which
is so prevalent in that section. He encourages ath-
letics, and is a pleasant associate.

John has a characteristic way of his own. He is
pleasant, generous, and perfectly harmless. He
could be a favorite of the ladies, but from the tri-
weekly appearance of certain missives from near(?)
Meridian, we know there is no chance. This lad is
especially opposed to hard study, but he generally
lands with the crowd. John expects to return to
his plantation if the lady is willing.

CLAY O. BAIRD. Kansas City. Mo.

Ex-Captain Company "H."
Just where Clay hails form is a mystery, but for
all practical purposes Kansas City will answer as
well as any. Clay does not belong to the "National
Society of Heart Breakers," but he has a little love
spree on just the same, which we hope will terminate
successfully for the "bride." His chief aim in life is
to know all there is to be known about the science
of Electrical Engineering, and if his present efforts
prevail, he will succeed. We cannot say that he
likes to study, but at times he becomes inspired and
industriously applies himself for as much as ten
minutes without a rest. The art of learning is
natural with him, and he is one of our best men.
Here's to you, "Old Boy"; may you not only make a
great success in your calling, but also, some day.

"Pedagogue" entered school' in 1906, and since that
time he has spent a few years out in the world. He
joined us in the Junior year and since then, with his
serious though pleasant mien and philosophic jokes,
he has won the love of all his classmates. "C. P." is a
most diligent and painstaking student — he is an
example of what can evolve by determination and
untiring effort. This subject has been known to ad-
mire one Normalite, but as yet, his heart is obviously
unentangled. The gravest charge that we have
'against "Pedagogue" is his sonorous nods in the
section room. Expects to take charge of an Agri-

John, or "Berg," joined us in the Soph, year and
quite a welcome addition has he made. John is a
very consistent student, but finds an almost uncon-
querable "Jonah" in mathematics. He has the esteem
of all who know him; besides his ability as an
orator. "Berg," with white hair and prepossessing

he has been the recipitent of a fat "Billet-Doux."

"Bogue" entered the class three years ago. He is
a real philosophic sort of a fellow. He never says
anything unless he is spoken to, and one had better
be careful how he speaks to him, or he will get eased
"in." "Bogue" has been the source o: many funny
jokes, but his military bearing cannot be reproached.
As a football player, he has not attracted much at-
tention; but you have missed much if you have not
heard him sing a bass solo. As a student, he is very
meritorious, and our best wishes go with him in the
future.

"Johnnie." as we prefer to call him, is one of our

until the task is completed. If there is something
in a lesson that he doesn't fully understand, that
familiar expression, "Er 'Fessor," is sure to come
forth, bringing with it the desired explanation. Few
men among us have the power to make and keep
friends as does John. He is one of the most popular
men in our class, with the fellows and the fair ones
as well. Although a member of good standing in the

A more promising son has never come from the

zephyr breeze of that region. He ranks among the
best in the class as a student, having passed over
that long ago, but cherished voyage, from Prep to
Graduation, without having failed on an examina-
tion. He is an extensive reader and has taken much
interest in the literary society work, the college
publications, athletics, and various other student
activities. In the class football games during his
Junior year, he attracted much attention as a man of
ability on the gridiron; in his Senior year, he made
his "M." We often hear him speak of his ideal lady,
but above all. he seems to prefer entering the Army
and living that life that is so applicable to a bache-
lor.

"Fessor" is one of the best students in the class.
He has earned his degree by hard and efficient work,
and we predict for him a great future in the agri-
cultural field. His good looks are exceeded only by
the size of his feet and for this reason, he is a little
shy of the fair sex. He is very fond of turkey, and
his candid opinion is that the U. S. Armory should
be for public use. "Fessor's" favorite pastime is
dreaming of the good old days when he studied
Bontany, and immitating the melodious voice of his
Instructor in that exceedingly interesting subject.

"A laugh is nothing but a smile, unless it can be
heard a full half-mile." "Children" hales from
Learned and always seems to feel it has duty to con-
vince other people that he is a worthy representa-
tive of what the name of his native place implies.
Some attribute the scarcity of his hair to old age,
but those who know him best say that it's a result
of his many conflicts with "Cupid."
"Children" is one of the best all-round men in his
class, having taken a leading part in almost all the
college activities. He has the happy faculty of let-
ting other people do his worrying, and of always
wearing a smile. He is very energetic and fond of
pleasure, yet never allowing it to interfere with his
studies. We believe that his self-confidence and un-
tiring energy will hasten his rise a prominent place
among the future great.

see the world, and will enter the Naval Academy at
Annapolis soon. He was a "town prep" until the
latter part of his Senior year, when he came out to
live the cadet life with the Major. The early part of
Joe's military career was not exceptionally good,
however, his good qualities were at last recognized
and he is now known as "Lieutenant" by his class-
mates. His many friends wish him much success in

As far as we can learn this prodigy originated
somewhere in Oktibbeha County. The day he
arrived on the campus he was dubbed "Blue," and
has carried that name ever since. As yet, nobody
testifies that they have witnessed seeing "Blue" in
the act of deep study, but in the class room he has
won much distinction. As a typical town prep, he
carries his indifferent smile, toots his own horn, and
does not worry about military. "Blue" is a genius
in the chemical laboratory, and especially delights
in demonstrating his profound knowledge to his
patient class in West Point at the Southern Chris-
tian College. He expects to be a chemist.

The subject of this sketch entered Prep in '07. As
as an athlete, Allen early earned a glorious reputa-
tion and is said by many to be the best tackle in the
South. He is a good natured. easy going sort of
fellow, and his room is the trysting-place of all
home-sick Preps, and "Head" makes a patient host.
"Head" is loved by everybody in college, but he has
always been an ardent lover of military(?). Though
"Head" is not a book-worm, he has a good margin
to his credit, and his development here is that of a
rounded man.

has the happy faculty of knowing how to be "every-

keeps him. When he leaves us to take up his course

Captain Company "C."
"Pat." as he is familiarly called, came to us in our
Junior year from the class of '11, and has since
proven one of our best students. He has made good
in every line of work that he has undertaken. For
his literary ability, he was chosen Editor-in-chief of
the Reflector; his work in the Y. M. C .A. has also
been of the highest character; his speaking ability
has won him a great many medals and he will repre-
sent us at the oratorical contest; in class football he
has won a reputation. Notwithstanding these facts,
his best work is done in the class-room. We predict
for him a bright future in his chosen profession of
teaching, because his good nature and sturdy appli-
cation are sure to win him a place.

ELLIS WINSTON POPE. Tylertown, Miss.

Captain Company "B."
The subject of this sketch comes from the good
County of Pike. He is generous, modest and at
times was known to be very studious. "Ellis" has
been handicapped by sickness, which caused him to
lose his diploma. Some are aware of the fact, that
he is quite an Epicurean. Some venture that he is
in love, but those who were here during the Normal
claim that his most ardent desire is to possess cer-
tain "Land." We sincerely hope that he will come
back to claim his diploma next year — if possible the
"Land."

A product of Copiah County, the exact spot being

two and one-half inches, manfully asserts that this
spot is known as Carpenter, and so we must sup-
pose for the present that this is correct. The
"Whimper" is noted among his friends for his little

gets much abuse in the way of thinking. The "Little

"Stank" has had much experience in every phase
of college activities. Believing that "He who
tooteth not his own horn the same shall not be

part of his career. For three years he has been a
star player on the 'varsity football team, and many
victories in track events have been won by him. No
one is more popular among his classmates and the
other students. In addition to this, he is a brilliant
student of agriculture. He tells of his ideal live
stock farm in Franklin County which is now await-
ing him, and we expect him to sacrifice it and go
into partnership with Jno. J. Hood, Manager of the
Laundry. Ask him about Whitworth College, about
his letter marked "due 2c" which was worth more
than all of Shakespeare's works, and his future trip
to the Panama Exposition.

Carl, or "Billy." as he is better known to us,
joined the class as a Junior, having been forced to
droo out of the Class of '11 on account of sickness.
However, despite this late start, no one of us has
more friends. This is due to his jolly good nature
and never-tiring sense of humor. No crowd can
long stay dull if "Billy" is among the number. But
few realize what is concealed beneath this happy,
care-free exterior, so seldom is it removed. Still
"Billy" has his serious moods as well as the rest of
us., and it is then that we get a glimpse of the true
man. Love affairs? Guess we'd better not touch
upon this topic — too broad. 'Twould require space

of "toot your own horn, or the same shall not be

curling his hair, he has few equals and no superiors.
He has a vacant, far away look in his eyes at times,
which seems to indicate matrimony, and in this and
all other of his undertakings we wish him well.

in the world for him, and she it is who lives at
Booneville and imposes upon his finances for
"postage due." During his entire career at A. and

MARK S. WOMACK, Mantee, Miss.
Agriculture.
First Lieutenant Company "G."
Mark is from "Old Webster" and he intends go-
ing back to invest his talents in her soil as soon as
he graduates. His social disposition, combined with
his grifts as a conversationist, makes his society
very congenial, while his wonderful talents of im-
personating the peculiarities of his different Profes-
sors is a constant source of amusement to his
friends.
Mark is rather conservative about his love affairs,
but from the long letters he gets from the "Lone
Star State," we suspect that he cherishes the ambi-
tion of some day transplanting a "Texas Flower" to
a Mississippi garden.

Senior Class History
WE have come, we have seen, we have conquered, and unlike the faltering,
the class of 1912 look forward. Our faces have ever been turned toward
the future and not the past. Our history as a class has been spanned by
four years of honest, patient, and pleasant work. Now that w r e have at
last reached the summit of our goal, let us record the events of our victorious deeds
and achievements, so that they may be inscribed on our own minds and on the memories
of those who come after us, in order that they may praise and honor our courage and
valor.
It was during the year of 1908, while wandering through the dim, mystic vales
of simplicity, unburdened at the time, by the weight of but little thought or reason,
we suddenly became possessed of the enobling desire to delve in to the wearied, en-
chanted world of knowledge, in order that we might edify and elevate our own lives
and well as those with whom we might become associated. As a consequence of this
vision, two hundred and seventy-five (275) boys made their appearance on the campus.
During our Freshman and Sophomore years, nothing of special interest occured, save
for two years of honest labor and the occasional falling by the wayside of some of the
weary and footsore who went to join their kind in the easier walks of life.
Time and space would not permit me to give a detailed account of our many
adventures and achievements, so I will mention only a few. Probably the most im-
portant event of our Junior year was that ever-to-be-remembered Junior Banquet,
which served to unite us into one body more than any other one thing. Many, I am
sure, will remember the Senior-Junior game in which we left the unfortunate Seniors
in the "still gloomy defeat," and henceforth, we were idolized (?) by them as they
pointed with pride to the following inscription on the water tank: "Juniors' Champions."
Again we have reason to remember February 22d, 191 1, for that day we decided that
the Father of our country would have said "cut," had he been living. Allow us to
say in passing that we took our medicine without bleating. Our struggle for a distinc-
tion of uniform, which was finally granted, has doubtless caused more discussion and
wondering among the class than any other one thing. We feel proud of the trust
and confidence the Faculty placed in us, and we have tried to be worthy of that trust.
As a class, our motto and watchword has ever been "Class Unity." We have
long since decided that "Together we stand, Divided we fall." What has been the
interest of one has been the interest of all in class affairs.
On the athletic field we have won honor and glory for our Alma Mater. During
the last four years we have risen from the bottom place to one of the foremost in the
90
^^^^ The- Reveille- 1^12^5^^^
S. I. A. A., this being largely due to the efforts and playing of men belonging to our
class, as well as the combined support of the whole class. We have had members of
our class on every 'Varsity team that has represented the college since we entered
school. The mere fact that nine of the eighteen, who made their "M" on the 'Varsity
football team this year, speaks for our record on the "Gridiron."
As Seniors, we have been true to the college we have learned to love so w 7 ell, and
have done all we could for the development of her various activities. We honor truth,
contribute to the relief of the poor and distressed, respect the Commandant and his
military authority over the Seniors(?). We attend all dances and shows, swipe
everything that is loose and not red hot, counsel the under classmen, and so live every
day that we can look any "Prep" in the face and tell him to go to Chapel. Now that
our race is about run, it is time to say farewell to our many friends and to each other.
We realize that before us stretches a vista of unknown destiny, but we face this
destiny with the same courage, determination, and perseverance as we have as a class
and can't help but believe that we will be crowned with success, growth, and useful-
ness such as will lead to the realization of our fondest desires. In conclusion we will
say that though we have made mistakes, yet we feel that our school days have found
us as manly as those of any class that has preceded or may succeed us. We leave with
fond memories of halcyon days that time cannot efface. May God speed you and all
that bears the name of A. & M.

A Toast
Here's to the Seniors, won strength and renown,
Who fear not Professors, — their voice or their frown.
This power and this knowledge with work they did pay,
Diplomas they'll get in the sweet month o' May.
Here's to Jack Hardy, our president dear,
Won love in the Preps, and in Congress a fear ;
If prayers and petitions can cause him to stay;
Fear not Alma Mater, your future he'll lay.
Here's to old "Billy," though hoary with age,
On cigarettes and permits he's still all the rage.
For manhood and honor he stands staunch and true,
By your ideals, our teacher, we've learned to love you.
Here's to the Colonel, so sour-faced and stern,
Your new book of Tactics we care not to learn.
High praise of us Seniors no doubt you've express'd,
With orders and edicts, our sojourn you've blessed.
Here's to the Faculty, with chairman and all,
At kindly feet, Preps, for mercy do fall.
Those lessons you've taught us, of duty and right,
With bright swords of honor, life's battle we'll fight.
Here's to our victors — our strong football team,
You've honored a few, but the scrubs heavenly dream.
'Twas sad how you shattered the hopes of "Ole Miss.,"
Now stern is reality — that "dope" caused such bliss.
Here's to our crack baseball team, that we know,
Will win all the victories Southland can grow.
We've got some new men to try out this year,
Just one more "Ole Miss." — do dry that sad tear.
Here's to the track team, our old standard size.
That "mopp'd up" in Gulfport, and took every prize.
Now, track men, get nimble, and once more repeat,
Next college contest we want every feat.
We'll drink to the Seniors, with intellect keen,
In wisdom, in valor, in love — that's not seen.
The fairest a maiden — brave men — fair themselves.
Let's drink to to the health of the dear class of '12.
Poet.

Senior Creed
We believe in our institution, in its President, its Vice-President, its Com-
mandant, and all who are in Power.
We believe in Chapel Oratory ( ?), in the filing of irregular schedules ( ?), in the
dismissal of Cadets, and the smoking of cigarettes on the sly.
We believe in the Military Discipline, in the walking of extras, the serving of
confinements, and the reducing of Corporals by the dozen.
We believe in our Athletics and the burial of our opponents — especially after
Thanksgiving.
We believe in the Mississippi Legislature ( ?), in the saving of the State's wealth
by denying its young men an education, and abolishing the Educational Institu-
tions^). And in placing our State absolutely last in the onward march of civiliza-
tion by any means known to our August and (Omnipotent Body of Law Makers.
Amen and Amen.

The Class 'Thirteen
"Oh, feats, I write, and of the Best, whom Fate
First in Nineteen and Nine gave A. & M.
Fill many a joy — yes, full many of late;
From the cup of hliss, filled to its brim.
We have drank when the lights grew dim;
In feasts of love, the best and sweetest e'er seen,
We have revelled in happiness, peacefully sublime.
List: 'tis that of the dearest, the best, — the "Class 'Thirteen!'
"O, Muse, assist me and inspire my thought,
I would write of Juniors, who alone
Have their trials and battles faithfully fought,
Who have nothing for which they must atone,
But with records clear, the best ever shown,
They shall advance with honors bright and clean,
To Seniordom's bright, sparkling and crystalline dome.
"Well done!" then can be said of — the "Class 'Thirteen."
"Onward goes "our" class, progressing each day,
In Science and Art; and as masters of men,
We have marched through life. A vision far away,
Bids us ever onward to the unceasing clatter and din
Of noiseome strife by the Senior's gridiron and pen ;
A vision that looms up in our happiest dreams, —
A vision illimitable, brightness, noblest, without a sin,
Look! 'tis a vision of — the "Class 'Thirteen."
"Onward" — is our motto inscribed in words of fire,
Our ringing slogan for each victory well won.
Our prize "for the laborer worthy of his hire,"
When his successful Career's departing sun
Has fallen o'er his happy days of work and fun,
Is not that which should e'er always seem,
For his race of Life has now only begun, — but
'Tis ever the crv "Onward " for — the "Class 'Thirteen."

Junior Class History
Unlike the checkered career of the American republic in its early development,
the class of '13 never falters or hesitates, but with a bold, fearless eye eagerly scans the
future and welcomes and hastens to meet all approaching danger and opposition. We
have passed along the calm, quiet avenues of love and friendship, crossed the placid
streams of success and pride, we have also toiled up the difficult and gloomy mountain
path of adversity, suffered in the burning desert sands of opposition and assaults, yet
at no time or at any stage have our hearts grown faint or our determination less. The
Rubicon has been reached, and even now a ringing cry of "the die is cast" is echoing
and re-echoing along the distant hills.
We have had a long inning and a fruitful one. It has been one of unbroken suc-
cesses achieved under difficulties, yet finished in truly regal style. Our Junior year
has been the "golden age" of the class. Having the largest class that ever assembled
at the A. & M. and having in it boys (and girls) who possess not only the re-
quisites, but the incentives to do something, it is of little surprise that we have ac-
complished great things.
In every phrase of college life we have given the best we possess, whether it be
on the gridiron, the diamond, in the recitation room, or the shops, honesty and perse-
verance have been our ideals. We have able men in every branch of athletics, and
indeed we have furnished the captains for two teams this year. And that is not all;
the men who receive the hard knocks on the football field, or catch the hot ones on the
diamond are also among the leaders of the school in academic work, where we again
take high rank and bid fare to establish new records and new forms.
We can also boast of our military geniuses, for we have our Caesar's, Welling-
ton's, and Lee's, and in some future time when the deeds of heroism of the world's
greatest soldiers entitle them to be numbered among the truly great, we do not doubt
that a member of the class of '13 will be found among them.
In an entirely different, but equally important field, the social circle, we have
many representatives. And do you wonder at finding them there ? You should not ;
for having among our number, three beautiful and fascinating co-eds, it is little
wonder that the brilliant society of Starksville reaps the reward of the effects of
Cupid's artless arrows.
Ere many weeks have come, we will have passed from the Utopian realms of
Juniordom to the strange, chaotic, unfathomable abyss of Seniordom, and in a few
months the class of '13 will be no more. But the love, the record, the friends, and
the imperishable memories of our noble and courageous band will be passed into the
history of our dear old Alma Mater as the one bright light of the final epoch of the
old regime.

Sophomore Class History
In the fall of 191 1, there were assembled on A. & M.'s campus about two
hundred and seventy "ringtails" and "privates" ready to be subjected to the most
strenuous year of the whole college course — that of Sophomore year. Our history has
been one of courage, effort, and toil ; and parallel with this, indeed, resulting from our
efforts, it has been one of success, glory, and accomplishment. Especially has our
course been marked with success since September. Our whole class has united into
one strong, compact body working for the good of all. Setting our whole forces
against every difficulty and discouragement, we have mounted the hill of obstacle, and
bid fair the summit of success. In the class room, in oratory, and in athletics, we
have been in a sphere all our own. Aside from the regular routine of events which
are experienced in the Sophomore year, we have accomplished some feats above the
ordinary. In fact, this class is much above the average, and it is some things about
this extraordinary class that we wish to make mention.
Class '14 is by far the largest Sophomore class that has ever matriculated at this
college during its existence. Last year there were about one hundred seventy-five
Sophomores, this year there are about two hundred seventy.
We speak with pleasure of the beginning in this year of an inter-class oratorical
contest between the Sophomore class of A. & M. and that of Millsaps College. This
contest took place at Moorehead, Mississippi. The "eventful" of this is that we are the
first class of this institution to go into joint debate with another class from another
institution.
For the first time in years the individual classes have been given the priviledge
of editing an issue of the College Reflector. We are the first class and the lowest
class to attempt to publish an edition this session. In how far we have succeeded, let
the Reflector speak for itself.
Probably the feats that showed more grit and for which the class, and more
especially the players, deserve more praise than for any other, was the winning of the
class championship in football and basketball. This is the first time the Sophomores
have won the championship in football, and is the first time that any class has won
championship in basketball.
The history of this class has been so very successful that we look forward to still
greater and grander achievements in 191 3 and 1 9 14.

Freshman Class History
To forecast achievement is a difficult thing, but certain it is that the rare ex-
pectancy, the planning and the anticipation of a brilliant future is ours. The word fresh-
man may be associated, by persons of the baser sort, with such satirical epithets as
"Freshie," "Plebe," and other slang expressions contrived by ingenius members of other
classes to perpetuate the College jokes. To some this may seem unjust and humiliating,
but nevertheless the members of our class are not wanting in those good qualities that
will enable them to bear it without a murmur ; and we believe that this is one step in the
direction of the goal for which we are striving. In after years our troubles here will
all be forgotten, and we will recall, with pleasure, these happy days of our novice year
at College.
Perhaps this class is not an exceptional one, though we have many good men
among our number who are destined for a career of achievement. Our opportunities
have not been so great perhaps as those of other classes, but we have conquered the
difficulties that have presented themselves at the beginning of our career at this institu-
tion. We can boast of having the largest number of men of any Freshman class in
the history of the College. In the recitation room we have done excellent work, and, in
fact, men from our ranks are found in all the activities of College life.
On the football field we are represented by, a certain "Chick," (Magee), a huge
"Pewee," (Mills), and a jovial Kimball, whose names will go down in the 'Varsity
football annals as memorials to the class of '15. Among the scrubs and those who
hope to make the M next year, we are profusely represented. Why we did not win
the class championship in football this session is a mystery and a strange puzzle to us.
Our other commendable merits may be presented in concise order ; versatility in ex-
plaining reports, calm endurance, and stoical heroism in walking extras. We have sur-
mounted these barriers and, at the beginning of next session, we will not tremble at
the awe inspiring cilmax of ascending into the ranks of the upper classmen. Indeed, to
those aspirants for the distinction of corporal it will be a moment of proud triumph.
"Old Freshman year
After all you're not a knave.
We'll cherish long the joy you gave,
And shed a tear upon your grave,
Old Freshman year."

Prep History
On Wednesday morning, September the twentieth, nineteen hundred and eleven,
the Chapel bell summoned the students of the Mississippi Agricultural and Me-
chanical College to assemble in the College Auditorium. Two hundred and sixty-eight
"Preps" responded to its tones. We differed very much in stature and intellect, but
were all of the same color — green. Many of us had arrived a few days before and
had caught a glimpse of the buildings and external appearance of things in general,
but this was the first time the majority of us had even an idea of what College life
meant. Other things too were new to us. In the mess hall we learned what "zip"'
and "wasp nest" meant, and we soon came to the conclusion that guarding the dormi-
tory was no easy task. We could hear "bugle calls like we never heard before that
made us want to go" — home. About a week later our class began in "Prep heaven."
Then we had something to occupy our time and gradually overcame our home-sick-
ness. Our work has grown more interesting to us each day.
As a Class, we are united and stand ready to combat the obstacles that confront
us, and thereby get strength to battle with the problems of life. We realize that the
greater part of our College life is before us. The goal that we are trying to reach is
is far ahead. The "Preps" have taken part in most activities confronted here. They
have supported the Y. M. C. A., and Athletics, as well as the College publications.
Many of the men from the Preparatory classes during previous years, owe their suc-
cess in life, in a way, to the things they have learned while "Preps" here. Though
we sometimes have to brush up against difficult propositions, we know that this is what
it takes to make a real man. When we reach the goal in the distance, we will have
attained as much as any of those who have gone before. Many of our men will have
fallen by the wayside no doubt, but men from the high schools over the state will
come in to take their places. No doubt, our number will be increased during our
Freshman year. The old "Preps," however, will make their mark in life. Our
journey seems long and toilsome, but ere long the time will come for us to leave the
scenes of our many joys, pleasures, and hardships, and march off to fight life's battles..
We look forward with joy to that bright spring day in 191 6, when, with diplomas in
hands, we will leave our dear old Alma Mater to take our places in the ranks of those
who are doing great things for humanity.

The Last Will and Testament
of the Senior Class of the Agricultural and Mechanical
College of Mississippi.
To whom it may concern :
We, the Senior Class of the Mississippi Agricultural and Mechanical College,
being of sound mind and body, and being mindful of the fact that we are soon to
leave forever the scene of our many joys and hardships, and wishing to compensate in
some measure for our absence, do hereby make this our last will and testament.
To "Jack," our President, who has been largely responsible for the growth of
this institution and for his great love for this institution, we give and bequeath:
1. All rights for the introduction of daily Chapel visitors who believe in this
institution, in the work being done by this institution, in that which this institution
stands for; who believe in the young manhood of Mississippi and its development
through this institution.
2. The gratification of his wish that some day "Jack," Jr., may stand out as
the invincible "southpaw" and star quarterback on the A. & M. diamond and gridiron.
3. A legislature which has higher aspirations than to create a Farmer's Union,
and whose investigation committees have previously learned the difference between a
radiator and an improved fire escape.
To "Billy," because of his ardent love for long Chapel speeches, we give and
bequeath :
1. The sole right to limit speakers during Chapel to ten or fifteen minutes.
2. The possession of a patent chicken coop for the safe keeping of his Christmas
turkey.
3. The privilege of caring for all executive business during the absence of the
President.
4. The filing of all irregular and special schedules in his office.
To "Buzz," our enthusiastic athletic advisor, we leave:
1. The right to act in an insane manner, unbecoming a professor of his rank,
whenever the A. & M. shall defeat the University in football.
2. The exclusive right to monopolize all laughing of the faculty during Chapel.
To "Peter Parley," our eminent "bull herder," we bequeath:
1. All brogan shoes made by the Hamilton Brown Shoe Company during the
next decade.
2. A new laugh with which to laugh at his own jokes.
To the Commandant for his strenuous attempts to make this a second West
Point, we will and bequeath :
1. All green "preps."
2. Faculty supervision as follows: right to report: Professor Hutchinson for
crying and whining during Chapel, "Fckie," for slipping into Chapel through the
front way, Peter Parley, for continual lateness at Chapel exercises.
125
^^^^^E^Re^BIULI^ l^lfi^^^^T^
3. All corporalships belonging to the Sophomores.
To "Eckie, ' for his tiresome efforts to make a suitable garden out of the campus,
we leave :
1. All steam shovels, scrapers, and other grading implements in Mississippi.
2. The right to move all dirt back to its original place at such a time as he
sees fit.
To "Pap," for his untiring assistance toward promotion and settlement of stu-
dent clubs and organizations, we leave:
1. A text-book which sets forth his views on all economical problems.
2. The privilege of holding special examinations for all students deficient in de-
partment of History and Civics.
As a token of kind remembrance and not wishing to slight, we give and bequeath
to:
Ard, radiators that will radiate rather than refrigerate.
Critz, a slot machine well stacked with gum, and from which he may obtain an
occasional fresh supply.
"Sissy," exclusive rights to exclaim, "Crystal Violets," whenever angry.
"Bully," the sole right to impersonate "Happy Holligan" at Chapel exercises.
Campbell, five gallons of water wrom the fountain of youth that he may drink
thereof and renew his energy.
Stark, the exclusive right to use the floor as a blackboard.
Simon, a standing invitation to all dances, regardless of special invitations.
In our great and earnest consideration for those who will attempt to fill our place,
we give our bequeath :
To the Juniors, our special uniforms and nerve enough to get them. Also a class
team that can win a championship.
To the Sophomores, that unity of class spirit which is sadly lacking to the Juniors.
And nerve enough to take the punishment awarded by the Commandant and Faculty.
To the Freshmen, a view of that new modernly equipped gymnasium which will
be erected in 19 — .
To the "Preps," a special rural high school to be provided by a Mississippi
Legislature.
Believing that the Mississippi Legislature of 191 2 should be rewarded for the
services they have done this College in trying to cut out the "Prep" department, de-
creasing appropriations at the expense of the young men of the state who are attempt-
ing to get an education, and in other ways trying to remodel the state government to
suit their own individual taste: and recognizing the ability of said body to economize
and at the same time make each thankful for what he receives, we name the Missis-
sippi Legislature of 19 12 as sole executors.

Thinking of You
Far from these studies, tired mind,
Why art thou back- ward roaming?
To smiling face and love so blind,
And evenings lost in gloaming.
Little knew I then it could not last,
The harvest moon was gleaming,
From present loves these thoughts fly past,
O!! heaven, 'tis joy a dreaming.
I wonder'd if you think of me,
E'en on some lonely evening.
Perhaps another sweetheart, she ;
Could love to be so deceiving?
I knew not then what 'twas to part,
You sigh'd as I was leaving.
In vain Fve searched for truer heart,
None yet, I think believing.
There in that night's departing whirl,
Embrass'd in the moon-strewn path,
Fare-well to you, my true loved pearl,
This longing is after-math.
N'Importe, '12.

Yearning
I wonder why I yearn to-night,
For one that's far away.
It's not for my hearth-side bright,
Though there I loved to stay.
It's for a girl with auburn hair,
And eyes of darkness brown.
Her voice chimes sweet, her face is fair,
Her brow knows not a frown.
With all these qualities, and — love,
Which doth her beauty crown;
In manner gentle as a dove:
To such all must bow down.
I would that I could be to-night,
With her, mine own ideal.
Perhaps, a porch with moon-light bright,
Then, to make things real.

Special Military Companies
Our special military companies have the same signigcance to us as the Greek
letter fraternities have to the college that have them. The state has seen fit to debar
"frats" at this institution, and, induced by the laws of human nature, — to have some
social function wherever we go — there has been organized in the student body three
special military companies, viz: — The Sabre Company, Lee Guard, and George Rifles.
The Sabre Company is composed of members of the Senior Class only, and the
drill is with the saber.
The Lee Guard and George Rifles are composed of members of the student body
who have been connected with the school for one year, and who have qualities to suit
the demand of these organizations. Their drills is with the rifle and consists chiefly
of "fancy stunts.'
Thus the purpose of these companies is more than to create a social organization,
for while each has its social functions, including the annual ball for each, there is a
great benefit to be derived from the short drills, to which the members are glad to give
a little of their spare time each day.
These organizations, under the proper management, are a source of benefit to
the members as well as a credit to the college, and should hold the esteem of both the
faculty and student body.

The Last Run of Tom Calhoun
"Now, my boy," said Dr. Covington, turning to Tom Calhoun, the engineer on
the "Dixie Flyer," "You have one chance in fifty of reaching St. Louis in time to save
this young lady's life, and I believe you have the grit and nerve to do it." Tom
reached over and threw two switches and the big gyroscope wheels began to revolve,
for the "Dixie Flyer" was a monorail train and a fast one, at that.
"Well, 'Doc,' " he said, as they shook hands, "I'll do my best, but be sure and
have a clear track for me."
Again Tom threw a switch, and the ponderous train slid easily from between its
supports and sped away on the fastest run of its career. Calhoun was a fine, manly
fellow of about twenty-three. But, although young in years, he was old in experience.
He came from a fine old Southern family, but soon after he had finished his college
education, his parents died, leaving him to support his two younger sisters. As soon
as he had settled up the estate, which to tell the truth, was not very large, he went
north and secured a position in the electrical department of the St. Louis and
Southern, a monorail line. From this point he had gradually worked up to the posi-
tion of engineer of the "Dixie Flyer," the pride of the line. Since this position paid a
good salary, Tom was able to live comfortably and dress nicely, as well as support his
sisters. But, although they were a great draw back to him, he loved them none the
less for it, as he realized that it was not their fault and that it was his business to care
for them.
As the monorail gathered speed, Tom's thoughts turned to Esther Wade, his
lone passenger. Esther was the daughter of Howard Wade, the president of the road,
and he was also a mighty steel magnate.
"I know," soliloquized Tom, "that I love Esther better than anything on earth
and I believe she cares for me, but old Wade has drawn the line on engineers. The
last engineer of this old trolly car was a sentimental young cuss, and tried to get fresh
with Esther. So as long as yours truly is an engineer, there's nothing doing in the
marrying line."
Tom's soliloquy was broken off by a sharp report from one of the motors that
drive the big gyroscopic wheels. In an instant Tom was bending over the motor,
searching, with a practical idea, for the brake. Slowly and almost imperceptable, one
of the big wheels began to slacken its pace and the car began to lean to one side. In
his excitement, Tom went over the motor twice before he discovered the trouble. He
was so excited that he had overlooked the big carbon brushes, and he now found one
of these broken off within the holder. With a frantic effort, Tom forced the carbon
and holder so as to touch the contract point, the commutator. Quickly he ran to the
other end of the car to get a fresh carbon from his supply box, but to his dismay, he
found it empty — the careless assistant had forgotten to fill the box. Now Tom began
to tremble all over and the cold sweat broke out all over his face. The monorail was
leaning more and would soon loose its balance and Tom knew what would happen.
He looked ahead with the hope of seeing one of the big supports which are placed at
intervals along the track, in case of an accident that would disable the gyroscopes.
Realizing that no help was to come from that quarter, he braced himself for the crash.
But instead of a crash there came a sharp noise as if a hard substance had fallen and
struck the floor. Tom merely glanced in the direction of the sound, but that glance
brought him to life. With difficulty he crawled along the sloping floor, passed the
open door of the car and seized the object which had fallen to the floor — it was an
177
191&
old dusty but perfectly good carbon. It had been laid across a rafter in the ceiling,
and owing to the slant of the car, had slipped from its support. It required the work
of an instant to adjust the carbon, and the disabled gyroscope began to revolve with
renewed energy. Tom was by no means a saint, but he had no sooner fixed the
carbon, than he got down upon his knees and thanked God for his Esther's deliverance.
Tom now put his whole soul into the race and two hours later the "Dixie Flyer - '
pulled into St. Louis. Thirty-two minutes ahead of the fastest record. Esther was
hurried to a sanatorium. Tom went home to try to collect his almost shattered nerves.
Twice that evening he sent to the sanatorium to find out about Esther's condition, but
both times he got unsatisfactory reports.
The next morning, when he awoke, Tom found a note from President Wade, re-
questing his presence at the president's office. When he was admitted, he was sur-
prised to find the Vice-President and board of directors seated around a large table.
"Now, Mr. Calhoun," said the president, "You will please tell us the incidents
of your trip and how you managed to break the records set by your rival road, the
N. O. & E." Tom faithfully related the details and laid great stress upon the lucky
fall of the carbon, and was modest enough to only touch lightly upon the latter part
of the run. When he had finished, the President rose and said: "Gentlemen, you
know what Mr. Calhoun has done for the road and now I will tell you what he did
tor me. When the 'Flyer' left Memphis I received a message from Dr. Covington,
who is a personal friend of mine, which reads as follows:"
" 'Dear Wade, have just put your daughter on 'Dixie Flyer.' Believe Calhoun
will make it.' Well, gentlemen, he did make it, and my daughter is now doing nicely.
I move that we make Mr. Calhoun the manager of our electrical department, and I
hope you will see fit to act on this motion."
The motion was voted on and defeated by one vote. When the meeting was over,
Tom turned with a sad heart, not so much because his promotion had failed, but be-
cause he was still an engineer, and, as such, he could not hope to win Esther. As he
turned to go, he felt a hand laid on his shoulder.
"My boy," said the deep voice of Mr. Wade, "I regret the failure of that motion
more than you do, for I not only wanted you in the plant, but I also wanted that fellow
Taylor out. Now, boy," and the deep voice quivered a little as he spoke, "I can never
thank you for what you have done for me, but my daughter who is now entirely out
of danger wishes to thank you for both of us." Tom flushed with pleasure at this un-
expected opportunity to see Esther, and as he started for the sanatorium, he heard
Wade call, "By the way, Tom, I forgot to tell you that I have withdrawn my decree
against engineers."
And Tom bound down the steps, feeling ten years younger.

Looking back over the past Football Season, we have just cause to be proud of
the team which wore the Maroo.i and White. Too much praise cannot be given to
our coaching staff and players who, in spite of all discouragement and hard luck, in
form of sickness and injuries of the members of the team, made the season the most
successful in the history of the College. At the beginning of the season the defeat we
had suffered the year before was still in the mi:d of everyone, and the energy of the
coaches, as well as that of the players, was utilized to develop a team that would be
able to defeat our old rivals, Mississippi University.
We had the good fortune to have most of the old team back, Williams, Jennings,
Allen, Rhodes, Ellard, Cole, and Mills formed the nucleus, from which, with the
addition of Kimball, Magee, Wells, and Cooper, the coaches developed a fighting
machine which held its own against any of its opponent;.
It is true, victory not every time Lodged in our camp. Auburn a:d Tulane de-
feated us, but both times the causes of our defeat can be traced back to conditions
which were beyond the control of the coaches or players, each time some of the regulars
were substituted by subs on account of sickness.
We opened the sea;on by playing Mississippi College. The victory was an easy
one for us, but the game brought out the fact that our team was on the road to suc-
cess. A week later we defeated S. P. U. and, on the 20th of October, the entire stu-
dent body went to Columbus to see, in company of the I. I. & C. girl-, our team play
Alabama. This was the first real football game of the season, and although in some
respects the game was a disappointment, it gave the team a chance to discover faults
and defects, and study out remedies for the future.
The next game was against Auburn in Birmingham. In this game the team
proved that they could play ball. After having been defeated in the first few minutes
of the game, our men pulled together, and not only held their own against their heavy-
opponents, but also for the first time in our football history an A. & M. player crossed
Auburn's goal line for a touchdown.
After Auburn, we played L. S. U. at Gulfport. The Louisiana Tigers went into
the game with the grim determination to take revenge for a past defeat. But A. & M.
proved to be too much for the Tigers' strength. We defeated them in a very hard
fought game, in which Williams, Ellard, and Mills sustained injuries which pre-
vented their taking part in the game against Tulane, which, in consequence of the
crippled condition of our team, defeated us.
However, by the time the last game of the season was to be played, all players
were in excellent condition. They left for Jackson in high spirits, and the result of
the game showed that our confidence was not misplaced. We beat University of
Mississippi by a score of 6 to o, and won the championship of the state.

The Baseball Season of 191 1 was something that will always go down in the
annals of this College, for it was during this year that we really branched out and
played some of the leading Colleges of the South.
The season opened with three games with Auburn, and although the series went
to Auburn, our team showed strength, and gave promise for success in future games.
We next played Mississippi College in Jackson. We lost one game, won one,
and forfeited the last one in the eighth inning with a score of two to nothing in our
favor. After these games our team returned home for good hard practice in prepara-
tion for a trip to New Orleans, Jackson, and Tuscaloosa where Tulane, Millsaps, and
University of Alabama were played. The trip was a successful one, A. & M. winning
the series from Tulane and Millsaps, but losing to U. of A., two games out of three.
The next games were with Mississippi College on the Campus. A. & M. made
a clean sweep of the series. It was in these games that A. & M. showed Mississippi
College that their dreams of State — or probably Southern Championship — were pipe
dreams.
Next came L. S. U. to cross bats with A. & M. This being the last series
L. S. U. had to play, they were determined to take it, but they fell before A. & M.
just as Mississippi College had done. The next victims of our team were the repre-
sentatives of Cumberland. They came with the same dreams and expectation the
other teams had done, and returned under the same conditions, — beaten.
Now we were prepared for our last series, the one upon which the success or
failure of our entire season depended. It was with our old rival, U. of M. The first
two games were played on Hardy Field, and the last one at Gulfport. The red
and blue came over with their spirits high, expecting to "mop up" with us, but we
were determined to have revenge for the treatment we received from their hands the
previous Thanksgiving Day at Jackson, so A. & M. ended this eventful season by
dropping only one of the games to U. of M., thereby winning the championship of the
state for the year, igio-'n.

B AS K ET BALL
The Basketball Season of ign-'i2 will long be remembered by the supporters
and the believers in the Maroon and White, for it was in this season that our team
defeated every team it met.
We began our record breaking season by defeating Mississippi College in two games
on the Campus. These games were well played and very exciting. The next team
to arrive on the Campus was Union University, but they were easily beaten both
games.
The last two of the home games were a splendid exhibition of basketball. These
games were played with L. S. U. The Louisiana Tigers had beaten University of
Mississippi in two games, so they thought we would be "Easy Money," but in both of
the games we were victorious. The winning of these games put us ahead of U. of M.
for the championship of the state.
After the games with L. S. U., A. & M. went on the road for three games, or.e
with Millsaps at Jackson, and two with Mississippi College at Clinton. As we were
victorious in those games, we are the undisputed champions of Mississippi.

TRACK ATHLETICS
The Annual Intercollegiate Field Day was held May 13, 191 1, at Gulfport,
Miss., and our team gained the honor of being the champions of the state.
A. & M. made more points then the other three colleges (Millsaps, U. of M.,
and Mississippi College) put together. Namely, 64 out of possible 120. A. & M.
won first and second place in several events, and only in pole vault we did not w T in a
place. Our relay team gained the honor of breaking the Southern record at this meet.

CLASS FOOTBALL
CLASS football at A. & M. has always been famous for its keen rivalry, hard
fought games, and manly sportsmanship. Seldom in its history has a team
scored more than one touchdown over an opponent, and often the two
strongest teams have battled each Saturday almost into the baseball season,
only to have the matter decided by a streak of luck, or the flipping of a coin. This
season the rivalry has been as keen as ever, but the victories have been more decisive.
This year a famous tradition of eleven years standing has been dispelled and
scattered to the four winds of Oktibbeha County. As far back as history, Elder, and
"Billy" diary can remember the Junior Class always won the championship, but the
Junior Class of '13 failed to uphold the tradition. It has been a seasonal surprise and
sad tragedy of the four to one bet.
Class football has done a great deal for " 'Varsity". Such wearers of the "M '
as "Head" Ellard, Bob Gilleland, "Pewee" Mills, "Cub" Allen, and many other
noble players got their start in football. In the first game of the season, the husky
Juniors rightly expected to win from the recruited Senior team, but this dream was
dispelled by the first work of "Squire" Jones, and the miniature wandering Jew, — the
Senior quarterback, and transformed into a 0-0 tie. The work of the Junior captain
and of several other members of each team, showed ability. The Junior team should
have won the game, as it was composed of heavier and more experienced men, but that
very necessary quality, known as team work, was missing. Later the Seniors with-
drew from the race, as their desire for glory was satisfied by their performance of a
year ago.
The Freshman-Sophomore game was the most astonishing of all, in this game the
over confident Freshmen were swept off their feet by the fast Sophomores back field.
They gave the best exhibit of speed ever witnessed here in a class game. They worked
the onside-kick and forward pass successfully.
The championship game after innumerable postponements was finally played off
on one balmy afternoon in February. Both teams had valuable men out of the game,
but the recruits went into the game to "pay" for it. It was almost an exact reproduc-
tion of the Freshman-Sophomore game. The Sophs scored both their touchdowns in
the first quarter, just as in the previous game, after that the game was hard fought,
with honors almost even.
Far into the dead hours of that historical Saturday night, the witches came from
the dark blue cedar trees and the murmuring haunts of the hills, and with their
legendary steeds of cobweb ruhses and white wash they did the brazen deed. Old
Sol disclosed the waking campus in huge letters on "the Tank," the story of the game.

The Singer's Climax
"If you want to hear 'Annie Laurie' sung, come to my room, No. 513, tonight,"'
said a Senior to his classmate. "We have a lovelorn fellow in our midst who has
been sadly wrecked recently by the refusal of a young girl to whom he has been pay-
ing attention for more than a year. It is seldom he will sing ; but when he does, it is
enough to draw tears from one unused to weeping."
The noisy party assembled on time at the appointed place, and were gayly
chatting and laughing, when a tall cadet, whose peculiar face and air instantly
arrested attention, entered the room. He was very pale, with that clear, vivid com-
plexion, which dark-haired consumptives so often have; his locks were black as jet,
and hung profusely upon his square shoulders ; his eyes were very large and spiritual,
and his brow was such as a poet might have. One or two thoughtless lads laughed
as they whispered that he was "love-cracked," but the rest of the boys treated him
with respectful deference.
It was rather late in the evening when singing was proposed, and to ask him to
sing "Annie Laurie" was a task of uncommon delicacy. One song after another was
sung, and at last that one was named. At its mention, the young, slick-faced cadet,
who was now the center of attention, grew deathly pale, but he did not speak; he
seemed instantly to be lost in reverie.
"The name of the girl who treated him so badly was Annie Laurie,' " said
naughty Tom, whispering to his spellbound colleagues. "But oh! I wish he would
sing it; nobody else can do it justice."
No one dares to sing Annie Laurie' before you, Jack," said elderly Sherbrum.
"Would it be too much for me to ask you to favor the boys with it?" he asked timidly.
He did not reply for a moment, but his lips quivered ; and, then, looking up as
if he saw a spiritual presence, he began. Every soul was hushed, — it seemed as if
his voice was the voice of an angel. The tones seemed to vibrate through every nerve,
pulse, and heart, and made one shiver with the pathos of his feeling. Never was
heard melody like that, in a human voice, — so plaintive, so soulful, so tender and
earnest.
He sat with his head thrown back, his eyes half closed ; his locks of hair glisten-
ing about his pale temples; his fine throat swelling with the rich tones, his hands
lightly folded before him. And as he sung,
"And 'twas there that Annie Laurie
Gave me her promise true,"
lie shook from head to foot with emotion. Many a lip trembled ; and there was no
jesting, no laughing, but instead, tears were in more than one eye.
And on he sang, and on, holding every one in rapt attention through the last
verse, "Like dew on the gowan lying
Is far fa' of her fairy feet,
And like the winds in summer sighing
Her voice is low and sweet,
Her voice is low and sweet,
And she's a' the world to me."
He paused before he added,
"And for Annie Laurie
I'd lay me down and dee."
There was a long and solemn pause. The black locks seemed to grow blacker ;
the white temples whiter, almost imperceptibly the head kept falling; the eyes close
shut. One boy glanced at another; all seemed awe stricken, 'till the same person who
had urged him to sing laved his hand gently on his shoulder, saying:
"Jack! Jack!"
Then came a hush — a thrill of horrow crept through every frame — the poor,
tired heart had ceased to beat. Jack, the love-betrayed, was dead. Easy, '12.

The Honor System
The A. & M. student body, during the latter part of the session of igio-'ll,
accomplished, in the face of a great many besetting difficulties, a thing which shall ever
stand as a perpetual monument to its integrity of Power and Purpose, — the Honor
System.
Mr. Lindley, our efficient Y. M. C. A. secretary of last year, had agitated this
movement throughout his connection with the college, and with the co-operation of a
few earnest-minded students, he succeeded in getting here Dr. W. D. Weatherford, the
Genertal Student Secretary of the south, to help in the agitation and establishment of
this movement. Dr. Weatherford came, and with him the vitality of deep-seated and
powerful conviction of right, which swept everything before him in his plain, business-
like and masterful appeals to the students. He presented and urged upon them the
necessity of an Honor System in any college. A vote on the question was taken by
the classes, the Senior class of that year taking the initiative. It was unanimously
carried and adopted by each of the five classes.
Under this system the students are placed upon their honor to do the right thing
in all things. Though its mission, primarily, includes only the prevention of cheating
on examinations, recitations and written tests, it is also believed that when firmly-
rooted, the other evils that mingle within the midst of our college life will be eradi-
cated.
The Honor System is controlled by a council committee which consists of five
members, two from the Senior class, one of which is the chairman, and one each
from the Junior, Sophomore, and Freshman classes. The committee this session is
composed of F. D. Thomas, Chairman, J. M. Langston, P. E. Roper, G. L. Craw-
ford, and H. F. Causey.
It is the duty of the council to investigate and pass judgment upon all cases re-
ported to them. Any Cadet, regardless of class, who is found guilty by the council
will be asked to withdraw from college, with the privilege of appealing to the faculty
if the Cadet thinks that he lias not received justice. If a Cadet refuses to comply
with the request of the council he will be dismissed by the faculty.
Some have argued that the system conflicts with military discipline, but this has
been proven fallacious. By their own free will, the students have accepted it, and the
claim that the harm that the Honor System works when the power of the system is
lost through negligence, is without justification. The system has worked ever since
its establishment, and has continued to receive the support of every class in college, as
well as the faculty.
Each student is on his honor to see that no one cheats within his ob:ervations,
though he is not required to act as a spy, but to report any case that he may chance to
see.
A new era has dawned, and in it we see a brighter, happier and more honest
future for the intellectual ability of the students of the A. & M. College.

In many respects, our I . M. C. A. holds quite an enviable place among the col-
lege associations of the South. It is true that the percentage of students enrolled as
members of the association and as members of Bible and Mission study classes may
not be as high as that of some other colleges, but when the number of students in
attendance here, and the difficulty in reaching each one of them individually, is con-
sidered it must be conceded that we have a fairly strong association.
There is no doubt but that the Y. M. C. A. has been a great factor for good
here. This is especially true of our bi-weekly prayer meetings. It seems that in these
prayer meetings, more than any where else, we have gotten closer to God, and that
He is more real to us. We have always had good attendance at these meetings and we
believe that it is due to the lack of all formality and cant, and to a feeling of the
Divine Presence of God. Surely, there is nothing like prayer if we would actually
commune with God.
We have not had an evangelical campaign this year because of many unavoidable
reasons, but hope to hold a real live one next session. While we haven't had this
evangelical campaign, we have enjoyed very much listening to several good addresses,
and I am sure that we are all the better because of having heard them.
We do hope and pray that the Y. M. C. A. will continue to grow from year to
year in its power to influence the lives of the^e in attendance here for the good, and to
draw men and bovs closer to CHRIST.

Clubs and Organizations
ALTHOUGH our college curriculum is not designed to give the students very
much time for outside work, the rocial side of college life is by no means
neglected on the campus. We have clubs and societies of every kind in which
groups of students of mutual characteristics band together, and for the time indulge
in activities which give them the much needed recreation and make them forget the
monotonous routine of academic work and duties.
Beginning with the organizations which have an educational purpose, we may
mention the four literary societies. The members of these are men who desire to
develop their oratorical talents, for the training of which the College Curriculum does
not provide. The Engineering Club, Agricultural Club, Textile Club, and Educa-
tional Club consist of Junior and Senior Engineering, Agricultural, Textile, and
Educational students. The aim of these clubs is to bring their members in closer con-
tact with the problems in the held of work in which they receive their training, and
which they intend to make their life's work.
Besides the regular Military Organization we have three special Companies, the
Sabre Company, consisting of members of the Senior Class, the George Rifles, and the
Lee Guard. The purpose of these Companies is to make their members profficient in
the use of sabre and rifle, while at the same time the social side is taking care of by
giving several dances and entertainments during each session.
The German and Junior Club take care of those students who have the inclina-
tion for dancing.
We also have County Clubs organized by the boys from the different counties
of the state. In the meeting of these clubs the boys of one count}- meet each other,
become better acquainted, and try everything that is in their power to help each other.

THE GREY EYE
Misery and Wretchedness walk silently in multiform array throughout the dreary
confines of the earth ; Sorrow and Despair, stealthily, slowly, — but surely — gather
about them their sepulchral habiliments of woe and utter ruin, and intercept with
white, bloodless, and quivering fingers, the paths of men. Death, red-handed with the
hot, spluttering, seething gore of the innocent, stalks uninterruptedly with upraised
hands of evil, sin, and glaring, fiendish eyes of remorseless and unconquerable hate,
about the souls of the Good and Just.
* * * * * * *
My Christian name is Pierre ; that of my family, I will not mention. Suffice it
to say, that my ancestral line is a long one, reaching far back into antiquity, those days
when every man was the other's enemy.
My father, I never knew, dying before my birth ; my mother, so good, so pure
and gentle, died as I was approaching my seventh year. I was left to the tender care
and solicitude of my only relative, an old uncle, who had lived for several years aloie
with his only daughter, Lorene. My uncle was rich, and like nearly all old, rich men,
he lived in almost seclusion. Morose, silent, and very reserved, he sat locked within
his darkened library throughout the day, never allowing the entrance of anyone, save
his own servant.
From some unaccountable reason, my uncle seemed to take a great fancy to me
almost immediately upon my arrival. He took me into his library, this hitherto "un-
approachable and mysterious den of the beast," as his neighbors termed it, and there
would keep me for hours, never permitting me to speak or move from the deep-
cushioned chair in which he invariably placed me. Of course, this proved to be very
irksome to me, my child's nature rebelled, and often, I would make a futile and in-
glorious attempt to escape through the locked door and carefully barred windows, only
to be watched more closely in the future by his ever furtive eyes. Slowly, very slowly,
I became reconciled to my uncontrollable Fate ; a kind of settled stoicism came over
me; all throughout the day and far into the night I would sit almost immovable be-
fore the continual, slowly flickering fire, studying the rugged and harsh features of my
uncle.
When my relative had seemingly convinced himself that I had become reconciled
to my position, he would give me a book, commanding me in no very pleasant tone to
read to him. For the first time, I found out the character of bis studies. Rooks on
psychology, metaphysics, theosophy, and spiritualism "ere. and had been his constant
companions for these many years. The verv soul of these mvstic authors, from the
ancient writings of Joseph de Glanville in his Mysteries of the Will, to the modern
Dr. Hudson in his Laws of Psychic Phenomena, he had imbibed until thev had be-
come an essential part of him. With creat care, he would explain these almost un-
fathomable passages, until T could repeat in my own lanpuaee, the meam'ne conveyed
bv the author. This was always followed bv a Ion? discourse upon the mysteries of
life, always ending with the words: "Youna man, the eye is tlv seat of the will and
the transmitter of thoughts. Remember!"
For fifteen years. I had studied in this manner under the neverceasine super-
vision of mv old uncle. I had Gradually acquired his characteristics, his attitude, —
in fact, his thoughts were mine in every respect. I nmed "o lonp-er with voutbful
enthusiasm for the beautiful "out of doors," the srlorious sunshine, or the communion
of mv fellow man. T irrew morose, sad, and despondent of life a< T had formerly
known it, — but T reioiced in mv bitterness. The a< T e of twe"tv-two fou"d me a weak,
pale, dejected and bitter, but mystically intellectual, old man.
I had never seen Lorene but once. Tt was the dav that I had arrived at this, my
264
1012
future home, that I saw and spoke to her for the first time, — this beautiful and gentle
girl of twelve. With child-like awe and perfect amazement, 1 had looked upon her
sweet, spiritual face, so pure and angelic in its contour. With silent — almost noise-
less — steps she had that day walked about the house with the old woman-servant, her
governess. Her verv presence, her low, even, quiet voice sounded as distant, hushed
music to my ears, and her cold, clear, almost crystal-like gray eyes with their electric
rays, seemed to penetrate my inmost soul in their intensity.
Deep were the impressions that were made upon me that day by this girl, m\
hitherto unknown cousin. For a long time afterwards, even after my conciliation to
the absurdities and eccentricities of my old relative, her father, I could hear with vivid
and lurid imagination that beautiful, music voice, it seemed to be in everything that I
heard. When awake or sleep, I could see those old, piercing, crystalline eyes; they
seemed to my highly excited imagination, to be watching me in every movement that
I made.
Lorene was never allowed within her father's library and apartments; I was never
allowed outside of them. Years past — and I forgot my cousin, the day of my arrival
was to me as only a hazy and very indistinct dream. I lived and grew within my own
domain of thoughts; she in hers; my nature developed into a something fiendish and
heinous; hers, in an atmosphere of love and purity, grew into a something sublime in
its ethereal essence. 1 was as a demon cast upon the rugged and chaotic rocks of
intellectuality; she was as an intangible divine spirit; gently floating through space on
the effulgent, spiritual pinions of sacred love.
My uncle was now approaching his seventieth birthday; — steadily, slowly, but
surely, he was fast approaching that goal, which through his long years of metaphysical
study, he had attempted to avoid. Hut still his was an unchanged nature; morose,
bitter, and sarcastic of life's realities, he grew more feeble and decrepit. However,
his decreasing physical powers seemed only to stimulate his greater mentality. He
now never permitted me a moment's rest throughout the day, — I was kept constantly
reading to him and listening to his mystical discourses.
His birtlulav arrived. That morning I assisted him from his bedroom to the li-
brarj and gently placed him in his great arm-chair. I immediately went to a book
case and took down a volume of Eliphas Levi's Transcendental Magic, his favorite
morning study. To my surprise, he refused it; very tersely he commanded me to re-
turn it to its place. I was more surprised when he told me to bring him a Bible, then
motioned me to a seat. He apparently found, in a short time, that passage for which
he was seeking. He soon laid the book down and sat gazing into the fire. For hours
he sat — for hours he continued his meditations, never speaking nor deigning to notice
me.
Night was now drawing near, the sun was casting its last flickering rays through
the low shrubbery in the lawn. Into the windows of the library and across the deeply
carpeted floor, quaint, fantastic shadows were creeping, casting, as it seemed, a faint,
ruddy-golden halo about the head of my aged uncle. For the first time, since he had
requested the Bible, he spoke, quoting from Job :
"Then a spirit passed before my fare; the hair of my flesh stood up; it stood
still, but 1 could not discern the form thereof; an image before mine eyes; there was
silence!" He paused and turned his glittering, almost maniacal eyes upon me; again
he spoke :
"Young man, the spirit has passed ; for the first time in my existence, I have had
fear; it did stand still, and there must be silence. I have to-day, lived the three score
years and ten allotted to me by Him, who controlleth the destiny of all. To-night, I
die. At twelve o'clock, I shall have ceased to exist, it is decreed that I must return
to that realm of immortal spirits from which I came. He paused, then I ventured to
speak :
265
"It is decreed, Uncle."
Again, he spoke: "All of mine is yours, young man. My daughter is yours.
Pierre, it is my wish that you marry Lorene. You may not remember her ; that
matters not. Listen! "The eye is the seat of the will and the transmitter of thoughts.
Remember!"
Again, I spoke:
"1 will remember, Uncle."
The sun sank; the shadows of evening crept about the gloomy and somber walls
of the room. Night came on; the hours passed wearily away. I had been reading at
times, during which 1 was trying to recall the day that I had seen Lorene. My uncle
interrupted my thoughts:
"Pierre, it lacks only fifteen minutes of being twelve; ring for the woman, and
tell her to bring Lorene hither."
I did as 1 was bid, stoically, a mere automaton] under the will of my uncle, as I
had been since childhood. Unhesitatingly, I rang for the old servant. In a few words,
I told her, remaining seated without looking up; just as quickly the old woman re-
turned, Lorene with her.
The old man stretched forth his arms to his child: "Lorene, my daughter, at
twelve o'clock my will ceases. This man, your cousin, must be your husband ; 1 must
have your promise before that will ceases to exist. Young man, young woman, look
upon each other."
Slowly and steadily, 1 looked to where Lorene was standing; quietly — gently she
turned her eyes upon me. With a shriek, wild piercing, and demoniacal, I fell
shuddering back in my chair. / remembered: it was still the same cold, crystalline
gray eye that looked upon me. In a moment I had recovered my self-possession and
almost unconsciously spoke :
"Uncle, your will is mine; Lorene shall be my wife." Almost in the same breath,
the beautiful, the pure and gentle Lorene spoke:
"Father, your will is mine, my cousin will be my husband."
The next day my uncle was buried ; at exactly twelve o'clock, at the end of his
seventieth birthday, in the presence of his only daughter and his nephew, he quietly
passed away — his will had ceased to exist. On the next day, Lorene and I were
married.
We continued to live in her home, the only home that I had known; the only
world of which she was cognizant. Happy indeed, were the days that we spent to-
gether, in each other's presence. We had learned to love ; ardent, passionate and
devoted were our mutual affections — our very souls were blended. Her purity, her
love so divine, so sacred, seemed about to overcome my moroseness and almost fiendish
hate of humanity. Her voice and presence enraptured me as it had done on that day
when we had met as children. I felt as if I would give my soul for her, that I would
have given ten thousand lives, had I possessed them, for her.
There was only one thing that worried me, and continually marred my happiness,
and that was — her gray eyes. I do not even remember of ever having looked her
straight into those eyes ; — they were unbearable to me. This aversion to her eyes may
have been the starting point, I do not know, — but our happiness was not long to con-
tinue. In time, I came to feel that I did not need her, that she was in my way. I
did not wish to tell her; — perhaps it was my uncle's will — I now avoided her as much
as possible.
For hours, I would sit alone in the library ; for hours I would sit and muse,
pondering over my past and present. A kind of melancholia, more powerful than I
had ever known, settled over me. I came to hate myself, a hatred as deep-seated as the
hatred which I bore to all humanity.
It was in one of these deep melancholy moods, that I was sitting in my arm-
266
1012
chair, on a dark and dreary night, before a slowly blazing fire in the library. Out
side, the wind was roaring and howling; the rain was beating against the window
panes, and lurid flashes of blue lightning came through the darkened room, casting
ghost-iilce shadows upon the walls beyond. My thoughts seemed to partake of the
character of the elements; violent and tumultous they swelled within my breast.
1 had not seen my wife for a week; I rarely gave her a thought, but when these
thoughts did come, they were of the most intense hatred and bitterness. I was now
thinking of her, a heavy clap of thunder reverberated through the dark and dreary-
halls of the old house ; a flash of light played upon the portrait of my dead uncle,
hanging upon the opposite wall. At this moment 1 heard a low creak of the door
upon its hinges. Soft, muffled footsteps fell upon the carpet and gradually grew
nearer my arm-chair. Gently, a hand was placed upon my shoulder ; softly a voice
almost whispered the words:
"Pierre, do you still love me? Have I done anything that displeases you? What
would you have me do? — 1 love you, my soul cries out for you in my loneliness, —
why do you avoid me?"
1 slowly turned my eyes from the fire into which I had so long been gazing, and
looked towards my wife, standing at my side. Almost contrite, my hand sought hers ;
words of repentance were coming to my lips, — I looked into tier calm and beautiful,
but sorrow-stricken face, — full into her eyes!
As an enraged and tormented lion springs upon his keeper, so I sprang with all
of my might upon my wife. " 'Tis the eye — the eye — the eye — the gray eyes!" I
screamed in satanic rage. "Out of here, thou demoness of hell, out-out-out-out, or 1
shall kill thee!" 1 again shrieked.
Stupefied and fear-stricken, Lorene remained immovable in her tracks. Exasper-
ated, I seized a dagger lying upon the mantel, and hurled it at her with all my
strength, passing through the side of her left eye and shattering the portrait of her
father on the other side. A jet of blood shot from her eye, and, as she quickly turned,
a cross, ruddy and seething was formed upon the carpet. When she had reached the
door, she turned, with her hand at her wounded eye, and spoke to me very calmly :
"Pierre, you have failed to remember, 'The eye is the seat of the will and tin
transmitter of thoughts.' I forgive you; I love you still."
Wretched, more melancholy, I again took my seat and resumed my craze into
the slowly dying fire. But the eye! — the eye! — everywhere I looked, I saw that
despised gray eye. In the grate, on the floor, on the walls, I could see nothing but that
eye, that ever-gleaming, that cold, crystalline gray eye. All throughout the dreary
night, I paced the floor, I wrung my hands, cried, screamed, shrieked, — and still noth-
ing but — that eye. I shut my eyes tight, I clenched my fingers until the nails sank
deep into the flesh, — but still that ever-present eye was before my vision. I was going
mad !

The next morning, the old servant came in and very briefly told me that my wife
was dead, and that the body had been prepared for burial that day. Without a word,
1 motioned her out of the room, and sat down to my reflections.
* * * * * ■*• *
I was in my room, still sitting before the fire-place; the fire having long gone out.
My clothes were wet, torn, and muddy ; my hair was wet and bedraggled. Near m\
chair there was a muddy spade and mattock; on the mantel was a case of surgeon's dis-
secting instruments, which the officers had found on me with the tools near the grave
of my exhumed wife.
As I regained consciousness, I was silently and very steadily gazing first from
the officers, who were examining the cross upon the carpet, to that of a large, crystal-
like, gray eye which I held within my hand.

WHAT SHE WANTED.
They had been married but two ■
months, and they still loved each other i
devotedly. He was in the back yard j
blacking his shoes. "Fritz," she called i
at the top of her voice.
"Fritz" came to her quick, for he i
knew that she was in imminent danger, j
He grasped a coal shovel and rushed up ■
the two flights of stairs to the rescue. He :
entered the room breathless, and found i
her looking out of the window. "Look, "
said she, "That's the kind of hobble I ;
want you to get me."

"Red": "Stand in a perpendicular

of 1 80 degrees, rare the head back until
the chin is parallel to the back-bone, and
assume an expression like Dr. Ma-
gruder's when a visitor makes a long

We wish a rule could be passed
prohibiting the use of the same "nick
name" by more than one Cadet, as
this is a source of much annoyance at
times.
For instance. "Doc" S. and "Doc"
T. were walking by the Chapel, arm
in arm. when a lady called from the
top of the steps: —
"Doc." won't you please tie my
shoe-lace?"
As they did not know which one
she meant, both responded to aid the
lady in lur disiress. Perhaps you have
noticed they don't speak to each other
now. There's a reason. Ask "Doc."
