 PREFACE 
 
 Gentlemen of 1904: 
 
 It is with no little hesitation that I attempt to write what 
 has here been called a "preface," because an introduction 
 seems to me somewhat out of place in a book, the purpose and 
 character of which are already known to all of you and the 
 contents of which are substantially your work my duty 
 having been but to record and arrange such data as you have 
 sent to me. I will, however, appreciate your attention to a 
 few general words about the work of the Class Secretary 
 before you pass on to a record of achievements by members 
 of our Class, which I sincerely trust will prove as interesting 
 and inspiring to you as they have to me. You will remember 
 that I was elected to the office of Class Secretary nearly three 
 years ago, and I must confess that at that time I accepted 
 the position with considerable feeling of doubt as to the 
 pleasantness of the duties which it demanded, and I remained 
 in that state of mind until many letters of encouragement 
 and support received in reply to my first appeal for infor- 
 mation removed any such feeling on my part and have more 
 than repaid me in many ways for any time and thought that 
 I have given in preparing this Record. It is true that a few 
 men have never responded to any letters sent to them. 
 Several others of the Class delayed their replies until they 
 had been appealed to three and four times. If I have any 
 criticisms to make it is of those men on whose account the 
 work has at times dragged and been made somewhat dis- 
 couraging. Of course, it is but thoughtlessness, but I will 
 feel that I have done much if those who have been delinquent 
 in the past will from now on realize that the work of the 
 Secretary is not one of short hours ; that his success, whoever 
 he may be, is measured by the completeness of his Records,

 for which he is dependent upon the assistance of each indi- 
 vidual member of the Class ; and that his is a work of co- 
 operation in the strictest sense of that word, without which 
 but little can be accomplished. 
 
 It is, perhaps, proper for me to state at this time that the 
 biographies herein recorded are intended to be complete up 
 to January 1, 1911, and some few facts affecting members 
 of the Class which have occurred since that date will be found 
 in the latter part of the book under the head "addenda." 
 The photo-engraving of Dean Wright, which forms the 
 frontispiece, and a number of the other illustrations used 
 throughout this volume are reproduced through the courtesy 
 of the Yale Alumni Weekly. 
 
 I sincerely thank those men who have so generously con- 
 tributed articles which I know will be enjoyed and appre- 
 ciated, and I further welcome this opportunity to express my 
 thanks and recognize my debt of gratitude to the Class 
 Secretaries Bureau, whose director, Edwin Rogers Embree, 
 of the Class of 1906, by his untiring energy and willingness 
 to assist, has made many things possible. 
 
 Respectfully yours,

 REUNIONS 
 
 BY LAWRENCE MASON 
 
 "Well-a here we are ! Well-a here we are !" Such is the 
 glad chorus at reunion time, whether ij; be spoken in song 
 and jovial greeting, or remain unspoken in the deeper satis- 
 fying contentment with which we recognize "the old familiar 
 faces" and blithely give ourselves up to the solid enjoyment 
 of old friends, old wine, old memories, and high old times. 
 "No sleep till morn, when Youth and Pleasure meet!" And 
 certainly in these class meetings we renew our youth in a 
 blaze of glory, like unto the festive phoenix of yore, and 
 furthermore recruit our energies by contact with our Alma 
 Mater, even as the mythical giant, Antaeus, felt his powers 
 redoubled whenever he touched his parent, Mother Earth. 
 In short, we may say, "In reunion there is strength"; for, 
 up to date, that spirit has been "the secret of our success" 
 as a Class, whether at Class dinners in New York and else- 
 where, at Alumni smokers and banquets all over the country, 
 at informal gatherings all over the world, or at any old 
 "-ennial" in little old New Haven. Whenever the time comes 
 round for one of our various reunions, you can usually over- 
 hear a soliloquy like this : 
 
 "If 'money talks,' I must be a deaf mute, because I haven't 
 enough coin to match anyone for a soda. (Or, to employ the 
 learned tongues, 'In rhino raritas.') And yet I'm going 
 down to that reunion if I have to deprive myself of my wife's 
 new hat. A 1904 reunion is not an expensive luxury it's an 
 expensive necessity !" In regard to such Class spirit we will 
 only inquire, without further comment: "When can its 
 glory fade ?" As a fitting rej oinder to that notable inquiry, 
 it is not too much to quote the words of an eminent member 
 of our Class in his editorial days upon the Yale Daily News: 
 
8 THE CLASS 
 
 "We feel almost certain that its praises will ring round the 
 world, from ancient Athens to Honolulu the paradise !" 
 
 In glancing back over the record scroll of time, from 
 living now to yesteryear, it is hard to pick and choose among 
 the numerous classic occasions with which 1904 has enriched 
 nay, crowned the pages of history. At our New York 
 dinners, the speakers of the evening, in spite of all their 
 special preparation, have hardly excelled the inspired im- 
 promptus of many unsuspected orators whom the exaltation 
 of the moment suddenly turned golden-mouthed ; thus we see 
 that even in the matter of postprandial remarks, the Class 
 has never stood for oligophemism but always for polyology 
 or pluriloquence. Freedom of speech is the shibboleth of 
 democracy. 
 
 Coming down to our Triennial, we beg to ask what memory 
 could be more fragrant than that of the Jockey Club ? What 
 Olympian ever inhaled choicer incense than the spirit of that 
 jocular offering upon the altar of Liberte, Egalite, Fra- 
 ternite? And then think of that never-to-be-forgotten coup 
 d 'eclat wherein our fireworks, instead of being trivially and 
 conventionally set off one by one, piecemeal, ascended in one 
 panpyromaniacal blaze of glory even as this volume bursts 
 upon a startled world full-panoplied, like Minerva from the 
 head of Jupiter. 
 
 As for our Sailor Sexennial, that epoch-making event is 
 still of too great rumor in the world to need the trumpeting 
 of any "trivial fond record." Even as the sailors of our 
 battleship fleet took by storm the hearts and homes of all the 
 ports at which they stopped, in their cruise round the world, 
 even so did our jolly tars carry all before them in the jam- 
 boree last June. Our slogan was that familiar and inspiring 
 anthem, "Yo heave ho, and a barrel of rum !" 
 
 So much for the lighter and more superficial aspect of our 
 existence as a Class, since graduation aside from the more

 WAY TO YALE FIELD FOR THE HARVARD GAME

 detailed accounts which follow this article. But there is a 
 graver and higher aspect of the matter which is less frequent- 
 ly stated. 
 
 As we steadily mature and approach middle age, the 
 merely frivolous side of reunions becomes less and less satis- 
 fying. We vaguely reach out after something beyond this, 
 and feel with strong distaste that the crude actualities of 
 the present fall far short of the ideal charms with which 
 memory has invested the past; and so we sometimes tend to 
 stay away from Class gatherings, making various plausible 
 excuses to ourselves but, in reality, more or less consciously 
 preferring the shadow to the substance. And yet, surely a 
 reunion should only be the "outward and visible sign of an 
 inward and spiritual" condition. While a man outwardly 
 conforms with the possibly cheap or perfunctory spirit of 
 the hour, philosophically making the best of the imperfec- 
 tions which must mar all human intercourse, there is abso- 
 lutely nothing to prevent him from inwardly selecting and 
 gilding the few worthy elements which will best blend with or 
 lastingly add to his cherished inner vision. And in any 
 case, it ill becomes any of us so to set himself above his 
 fellows, or so to lose the saving "one touch of nature," as to 
 decline to avail himself of these three certain benefits (to 
 name no more than three) which reunions afford: first, the 
 indubitable value of getting out of the atmosphere of one's 
 daily business or professional routine by good-naturedly 
 (even charitably, if necessary) relaxing in company with 
 the men with whom one underwent the experiences of the 
 four years which, whether one admits it or not, color one's 
 whole life ; secondly, the no less unquestionable value of meet- 
 ing, even if only for a brief time, ordinarily distant friends 
 who have meant and could mean much in the cheering or 
 bettering of one's inner life, thus renewing the fading inspira- 
 tion to strive to be one's better self ; and, finally, the equally 
 
10 THE CLASS 
 
 incontestable value of marking one's membership in a great 
 association or organization and thus fostering the growth 
 of that precious principle Loyalty (perhaps our chief 
 advantage over men who have not gone to college) : Loyalty 
 as an antidote for the too-engrossing vices of worldliness and 
 selfishness: Loyalty to higher things and nobler aims than 
 sordid, egocentric interests: Loyalty to a cause that richly 
 deserves, and more than richly repays, every atom of service 
 and of devotion that we can possibly bring to it Loyalty to 
 Yale. 
 
 So, in pleading for the adoption of the right attitude 
 toward reunions, for the recognition of their power to 
 strengthen some of the better elements in our lives, let me 
 conclude by quoting, with a few slight adaptations, the in- 
 comparable psean of all high fellowship : 
 
 " Old men forget: yet all shall be forgot, 
 But they'll remember with advantages 
 What feats they did that day. Then shall our names, 
 Familiar in their mouths as household words, 
 Be in their flowing cups freshly remembered. 
 This story shall the good men teach their sons; 
 And not a holiday shall e'er go by, 
 From this day to the ending of the world, 
 But we in it shall be remembered : 
 We few, we happy few, we band of brothers." 
 
THE 1904- TRIENNIALISTS VISITING '87 AT THE 
 VICENNIAL FENCE BY CONNECTICUT HALL 
 
Of THE 
 
 ( UNIVERSITY j 
 
 Of 
 
TRIENNIAL 
 
 The Class of 1904 celebrated its Triennial reunion in New 
 Haven this year with over one hundred and seventy-five 
 members present. On Saturday, June 22, several trial heats 
 were run off in New Haven; but the participants were so 
 exhausted that they were somewhat incapacitated for active 
 service later in the celebration. After this preliminary 
 "jockeying" for position, 1904 got off in a bunch on Mon- 
 day, June 24. 
 
 After various meetings Tuesday morning (in one of which 
 a gifted Sexennial committee was elected, consisting of E. 
 Ely, Mason, Parks, Victor and Wiggin) the Class submitted 
 to a bombardment by Pach, Leopold, Curtiss, and special 
 photographers for the leading fashion publications of the 
 country, and then set out en bloc for the field. The trying 
 march was accomplished without loss of life, though several 
 jockeys sustained severe injuries from the bucking of their 
 hobby-horses, which took fright at a loud but false report 
 about a free lunch at the game. When Captain Kinney's men 
 had scored an easy victory, 1904 marched back to cheer 
 Prexy and ex-Prexy, and was rewarded by appropriately 
 complimentary speeches. 
 
 The Class supper at Young Men's Republican Hall was 
 literally a howling success, in which the favorite howls were 
 "The Handicap" and other ballads of the race track. 
 There was cheering for Winslow and the Triennial Commit- 
 tee. The Long Distance Cup went to J. C. Kittle, who came 
 all the way from Ross, Cal., U. S. A. Kittle's speech of 
 acceptance was the hit of the evening; his well-chosen 
 remarks were considered so perfect by those who have heard 
 after-dinner speaking both on this side of the ocean and on 
 the other side of the ocean, that they will doubtless be pub- 
 lished in full in the forthcoming Record of the Class. Miller's 
 
12 THE CLASS 
 
 remarks, mingled though they were with flying oyster 
 crackers and loaf sugar, were also a choice flower of oratory. 
 Then came the celebration on the Campus. A somewhat 
 premature display of fireworks was given by two care-free 
 members of the Class, who succeeded in setting fire to the 
 fireworks wagon before the Campus was reached: though 
 this enterprising achievement furnished a brilliant spectacle 
 for a few minutes, at the cost of most of the hair, skin, and 
 other covering of the two conspirators as well as the driver 
 and the horse, still the loss of the fireworks cast a gloom 
 later in the evening. Mention should certainly be made of 
 Count Ely's "seeing Yale" excursion in "Pop" Warner's 
 automobile express wagon, which he at first was unable to 
 start and then was unable to stop until "Pop" himself 
 climbed aboard: and of several honorary degrees taken at 
 Commencement on Wednesday by members of the Class 
 who had neglected to go through this formality three years 
 ago. From Lawrence Mason's account in the Yale Alumni 
 Weekly, July 10, 1907. 
 
 MINUTES OF TRIENNIAL MEETING 
 
 The first reunion meeting of the Class was held in room 
 Al, Osborn Hall, New Haven, Conn., at 11 o'clock in the 
 forenoon, on Tuesday, June 25, 1907. 
 
 The meeting was called to order by Burnside Winslow, 
 chairman of the Triennial Committee, who was unanimously 
 elected chairman, and W. L. Mitchell acted as secretary of 
 the meeting. 
 
 There being no reports to be made, the chairman pro- 
 ceeded at once to announce the plans and schedules for the 
 day, as follows: 
 
 A. 12 o'clock, noon. Photograph of Class on Osborn Hall

 dent Hadley. 
 
 E. 7.00 P. M. Class Supper at Young Men's Repub- 
 
 lican Club. 
 
 F. 8.00 P. M. March on Campus. 
 
 With the unanimous consent of all present the meeting then 
 proceeded to an election of a committee to take charge of 
 the Sexennial Reunion of the Class, to be held in June, 1910. 
 Upon motion duly made and seconded it was unanimously 
 
 Resolved, That the number of men to serve as members 
 of the Sexennial Committee be and it hereby is fixed at five. 
 
 The following nominations were then made: Edward C. 
 Ely, Lawrence Mason, G. Elton Parks, George F. Victor, 
 Frederick H. Wiggin. 
 
 No other nominations being made a vote was had result- 
 ing in the unanimous election of the above-named gentlemen 
 to serve as members of the Sexennial Committee. 
 
 Songs written for the occasion were then rehearsed, after 
 which a vote of thanks was extended by the Class to the com- 
 mittee in charge. 
 
 No further business being presented the meeting, upon 
 motion, adjourned.

 SOME SEXENNIAL FACES 
 
SEXENNIAL 
 
 In regard to our Sailor Sexennial, we modestly put the 
 question and record the answer: 
 
 "Did 1904 celebrate a reunion? It celebrated the 
 reunion !" 
 
 From Saturday to Thursday we owned the town and all 
 that therein is. "Rich, rare and racy," was the verdict 
 passed upon our exhibition of speed, and we must confess 
 that that is a conservative estimate. 
 
 By Saturday noon many good men and true had 
 reported for active service, and Graduate Club stock at once 
 began to soar. Some attended the Cornell game, some 
 (commended rather for their zeal than for their technique) 
 provided spectators with novel entertainment on the Lawn 
 Club tennis courts, while yet others inaugurated the swim- 
 ming pool fad or the Savin Rock mania. In the evening 
 many held down the 1904 Cheering Section at the Campus 
 Dramatic performance, and later all united in the absorbing 
 cultivation of fellowship. Taken all in all, a very laudable 
 and highly salubrious day was scratched from the calendar. 
 Sunday was devoted to the exhausting effort to keep cool ; no 
 unofficial estimate of the heat is printable, and government 
 statistics are likewise wanting owing to the fact that the 
 official thermometer on top of the Malley Block boiled over. 
 Suffice it to say that no solid food other than cracked ice 
 was consumed for five days, and numerous prostrations were 
 averted only by prompt and frequent applications of acid 
 and juniper. Many valuable lives were saved, furthermore, 
 by our sanitary and commodious costume which was at once 
 comfortable, sensible, and cool, as well as aesthetically ravish- 
 ing. 
 
 Monday witnessed a signal victory for 1904 over 1907 on 
 the Campus. The game was called at the end of the sixth 
 
16 THE CLASS 
 
 inning on account of dryness. The official score (N. B. 
 Patrons are cautioned against accepting any but the genu- 
 ine!) follows: 
 
 1904 1 9 '4 23 S7t * * 
 
 1907 013 * * 
 
 *Bye holes not played, f Estimated. (Bogey is 75.) 
 
 The only strikeout was scored by Williams, 1904, who 
 served three fast ones while two 1907 men were fighting for 
 the bat. Lack of space alone forbids due mention of the 
 stellar feature of the game, namely the meteoric playing of 
 1904's second baseman (none other than the versatile author 
 of this veracious chronicle !) : he confesses to a brilliant 
 double play, two incredible assists, and some gilt-edged body- 
 checking. Sixty-one members of the Class were awarded 
 their numerals, in recognition of their participation in this 
 victory. Monday afternoon saw another 1904 triumph, 
 when a picked nine, headed by Captain Winslow, defeated the 
 flower of 1904 S., on the Freshman diamond. Monday even- 
 ing was given up to a "safe and sane" celebration at the 
 Rock, after an admirably esculent repast had been partaken 
 of at the Old Homestead. Some thrilling bareback riding on 
 the merry-go-round shared the popular vote for "favorite 
 amusement" with the spirited Marathon of an indiscreet 
 bather in pursuit of the automobile containing his clothes. 
 
 In the Class meeting on Tuesday morning considerable 
 business was transacted, including the election of W. Ely, 
 Northrop, Parks and Wiggin as Decennial Committee. At 
 noon the Class picture was taken, adding one other thing of 
 beauty to America's art treasures, and then after a hasty 
 but sincere luncheon we executed our historic march to the 
 field. At our appearance the assembled multitude was 
 electrified: many thousands even asserted that it almost

 atoned for the hour-and-a-half wait before the game began, 
 and all rational beholders agreed that 1904 had the best 
 costume, the best band, the best mascot (Tonda), and the 
 best time extant. Harvard was properly slaughtered and 
 the obsequies celebrated as per usual, and the meeting 
 adjourned with tumult and shouting. "Then they marched 
 back, but not the six hundred." Only a faithful few survived 
 the dangerous passage between the Scylla and Charybdis of 
 the University and Graduates Clubs, but they were rewarded 
 by a fine speech from President Hadley. Then came the 
 Class dinner at Warner Hall (causing Roman holidays in 
 Nero's palmiest prime to pale their ineffectual fires), the 
 pyrotechnics on the Campus, and finally the scattering all 
 over town with the all-conquering watch-cry, "Every man 
 his own Bicentennial." Euthanasy, indeed ! 
 
 The morrow brought the exodus, and soon New Haven 
 settled back into "still life" again, to wait till 1914. From 
 Lawrence Mason's account in the Yale Alumni Weekly, July 
 8, 1910. 
 
 MINUTES OF SEXENNIAL MEETING 
 
 The second reunion meeting of the Class was held in room 
 A2, Osborn Hall, New Haven, Conn., at 11.15 o'clock in the 
 forenoon on Tuesday, June 21, 1910. 
 
 The meeting was called to order by Frederick H. Wiggin, 
 chairman of the Sexennial Committee, who was unanimously 
 elected chairman of the meeting, and the Class Secretary 
 acted as secretary. 
 
 After the chairman had announced the plans and schedule 
 for the day, the meeting proceeded to an election of a com- 
 mittee to arrange for the Decennial Reunion of the Class, 
 to be held in June, 1914. After some discussion it was, upon 
 motion duly made and seconded, unanimously 
 
18 THE CLASS 
 
 Resolved, That the number of men to serve as members of 
 the Decennial Committee be, and it hereby is, fixed at four 
 (4). 
 
 The following nominations were then made:

 In response to the chairman's call for reports, Thomas B. 
 Thacher, the Class agent, announced that the special Sex- 
 ennial contribution of the Class to the Alumni Fund would 
 not exceed fourteen hundred dollars ($1,400.00), all of which 
 had been subscribed by about sixty members of the Class. 
 
 Lawrence Mason reported that the surplus of the funds 
 of the 1904 Junior Promenade Committee, amounting to 
 two hundred and twenty-five dollars ($225.00) had been 
 divided between the Academic Freshman departments in 
 English and history. (See page 311.-) 
 
 The Class Secretary announced the number of men who at 
 that date had responded to the last appeal for data for the 
 Class Record. 
 
 Songs written by L. Mason were then distributed and 
 rehearsed, Mr. Mason conducting, after which a vote of 
 thanks was extended to the committee, particularly to its 
 chairman, Frederick H. Wiggin, who had willingly assumed

NEW YORK DINNERS 
 
 t 
 
 It is with the utmost regret that the Class Secretary 
 realizes that those who turn to this portion of the record with 
 the full expectation of reading a detailed account of the 
 New York reunions and the names of those who have attended 
 any or all of them will find no more than a brief account of 
 but two of the six Class dinners which have been held since 
 graduation at the New York Yale Club. Unfortunately 
 nothing can be said to properly explain the lack of data in 
 this connection except that through thoughtlessness or inex- 
 perience your Secretary attempted too late to put in perma- 
 nent form the material offered by those memorable occasions. 
 
 But what we do in the future we have learned from the past 
 and that all New York reunions of the Class, including the 
 one to be held on April 1, 1911, may hereafter become his- 
 tory, Edward C. Ely has generously consented to assume the 
 title "Recorder of 1904 Dinners" and to supply the Yale 
 Alumni Weekly with articles which will recall details of what 
 for many reasons may to some of us be but a vague recol- 
 lection.

 SECOND NEW YORK DINNER 
 WILLARD H. DURHAM 
 
 The second annual banquet of the Class of 1904, Yale 
 College, was held at the Yale Club in New York City Satur- 
 day night, March 17, 1906. The invitations previously sent 
 out requested "the pleasure of your company" on that night 
 "to meet St. Patrick and 1904." In response to this sum- 
 mons ninety-seven veterans turned out, prepared to do and 
 die. The conflict raged till 3 a.m. 
 
 The long-distance cup, awarded to the man who traveled 
 farthest in order to attend the dinner, was given to Winston 
 of Chicago ; other prominent candidates were Graff of Pitts- 
 burg, with whom the least exertion is an effort equivalent to 
 a hundred miles' journey for anyone else, and Harvey 
 Williams of Brooklyn. The cup would undoubtedly have gone 
 to Basil Scott of Long Island, but the news of the banquet 
 reached that remote locality only two weeks before the 
 appointed night, and Basil, though traveling night and day, 
 was unable to arrive till the following morning, and thus 
 failed to qualify. 
 
 Early in the evening everyone rose to drink a silent toast 
 in memory of Fred Maurice Maxwell and of Fred Chambers 
 Baldwin, better known and lovingly remembered as "Pop" 
 Baldwin, the first two men to fall from the ranks since the 
 Class entered college. 
 
 David Boies, as toastmaster, added greatly to the gaiety 
 of nations. His sparking-plug emitted ceaseless blinding 
 scintillations, until it blew out in the grill room at .30 a.m. 
 while he was striking high C in a peculiarly difficult tenor 
 harmony. Boies read a letter from Dr. P. S. Ney, the only 
 living member of the Triennial Committee in captivity (and 
 he's in Hartford!) which was noted for a feeling allusion to 
 June, 1907, "when our Triennial comes off, together with the 
 
22 THE CLASS 
 
 lid." The first speaker, G. E. Parks, responded to the toast, 
 "Six years with the Banjo Club." He tore off a few ripping 
 stories to begin with, and then closed with a stirring appeal 
 for those two fundamental Yale qualities, friendship and 
 loyalty. Count Ely's toast was "Reveries of a Bache- 
 lor." Count showed the Class itself as others see it, and the 
 Class envied the others. His efforts were rewarded by an 
 appointment to serve, with Welles and Green, on the Dinner 
 Committee for next year. The last speaker, Lawrence 
 Mason, who at last year's dinner had suggested that Osborn 
 Hall be transported to the New Yale in China to serve as a 
 pagoda, this year brought forward another proposition to 
 keep the Class on line with the recent agitation for the manu- 
 mission or emancipation of the Freshmen; namely, a motion 
 that the Hillhouse estate be given to the Freshmen for a play- 
 ground and Vanderbilt Hall for a nursery. His toast was : 
 "1904 in 1954, or 280 Entries in the Futurity." Hickman, 
 Thacher and Goetchius also spoke extemporaneously but 
 brilliantly ; and Mohlman was only restrained from speaking 
 by superior numbers. St. Patrick, who had exchanged his 
 halo for 1904 numerals, was present in spirits (sic). 
 
 After cheers for the committee, for 1904, and for Yale, and 
 after a splendid rendering of "Bright College Years," the 
 Class adjourned to the grill room for a considerable extension 
 of the occasion. Yale Alumni Weekly, March 8, 1906.

 In May, 1908, Mr. Welles, chairman of the above named 
 comittee, made the following statement concerning the elec- 
 tion of a Class Secretary to succeed Henry L. Foote, re- 
 signed. This statement appeared in the Yale Alumni Weekly 
 for May 27, 1908 : 
 
 At the annual dinner of the Class of 1Q04, held at the New 
 York Yale Club on March 21, 1908, the resignation of Henry L. 
 Foote as Class Secretary was received and accepted. The fifty- 
 eight members of the Class there present nominated G. Elton 
 Parks and Douglas B. Green as candidates for the position and 
 in accordance with the plan then adopted ballots were sent to 
 the Class and a vote was taken by mail. One hundred and 
 seventy-three votes were cast, of which number Mr. Parks received 
 one hundred and one and is therefore declared elected. 
 
 To those of the Class who were not present at the dinner it 
 may be of interest to know that the matter received the fullest 
 consideration and that the method of election adopted seemed to 
 be the best way to fill the vacancy without too great loss of time. 
 It is hoped that when the difficulty of the situation is taken into 
 consideration the result will be satisfactory to every one and that 
 Mr. Parks will have the united support of the Class.

NINETEEN-FOUR IN THE FACULTY 
 BY F. E. PIERCE 
 
 Lives of great men all remind us 
 
 We can labor long in vain, 
 And departing leave behind us 
 
 Blanks upon the Freshman brain. 
 
 Nineteen-four was the first class in many years that failed 
 to get thirty men into Phi Beta Kappa. Whether this evi- 
 dence of originality on our part impressed the authorities 
 favorably, or this unbearable stigma spurred our scholastic 
 champions to unusual belated efforts, I know not; but cer- 
 tainly the stone which the Dean's office rejected has become 
 the head of the faculty corner. We have at present, and 
 have had for some years, more members in the body of in- 
 structors than any other class since the famous one of '96. 
 
 Not only is our number on the faculty large, but it has 
 shown a constant tendency to increase. I refrain from dis- 
 cussing the bearing which this may have on our younger 
 brothers who present themselves before 1904 instructors with 
 pleasant smiles and small information ; I wish simply to point 
 out that our Class through their faculty members are becom- 
 ing more and more a molding force in the future life and 
 spirit of Yale. Several of our band, finding more lucrative 
 fields elsewhere, have forsaken the cause of knowledge; but 
 others have risen in their places, and our representation has 
 steadily enlarged. 
 
 The next hopeful sign is in the number of branches which 
 these men are pursuing. In the classrooms of Clare Mendell 
 or Billy Kirkham one may learn to dissect either a dead 
 language or a living frog. He may be guided by Bull Dur- 
 ham through the production of literature or by Polly Clapp 
 through the literature of production. Under Otis Bigelow 
 
26 THE CLASS 
 
 or Raymond Hill he may master a French which they are 
 trying to make something more than the art of confusing 
 without enlightening a Parisian shopkeeper. In the cup of 
 "the meanest flower that blows" Sam Hemingway can find 
 thoughts too deep for tears, and George Nichols names too 
 long for pronunciation. Through the echoing vale of music 
 Seth Bingham is going from strength to strength, proving 
 a credit to us all. Daily in the sounding halls of Lampson 
 that facile wit of Lawrie Mason's, which was the delight of 
 our palmy days, comes back like the phoenix from its ashes. 
 And your Class poet is sadly pointing out to Freshmen the 
 inferiority of his own work to Shakespeare's. 
 
 Furthermore, with the passing of the years, some of our 
 brethren are beginning to mount the ladder and become 
 known in a wider circle. To an instructor who has read on 
 an undergraduate paper that Judas Iscariot was one of the 
 greatest of Italian painters, fame can never appear as the 
 summum bonum of life ; but if not for fame, at least for their 
 own satisfaction your classmates are working upward. 
 Several articles in learned periodicals, two or three poems in 
 different magazines, and parts of two or three books already 
 are under the names of 1904 men, and more, we hope, are soon 
 to follow. 
 
 The statistics of our faculty activities are given below, 
 presented by the author with that stereotyped tabulation and 
 lucid lack of interest which the Ph. D. system is supposed to 
 inculcate.

28 THE CLASS 
 
 It is too early yet to expect from any of us remarkable 
 exploits or earth-shaking discoveries; but we are all doing 
 our best, building for the future, and grappling earnestly 
 with the problem before us. And that problem is harder than 
 most laymen realize. For one thing, it weighs on our spirits 
 as teachers to feel the hopeless magnitude of our task, in 
 trying to make any impression with our little teaspoons of 
 culture on these vast mountains of ignorance and indifference. 
 They loom over us and depress us by their very bulk and 
 unchangeableness as Ruskin says that the Alps depress the 
 Swiss peasants. Then, too, all our problems both of teaching 
 and research are at present in a state of flux, of uncertainty ; 
 and the perplexing question as to what is and is not worth 
 while haunts us like Banquo's ghost "with twenty mortal 
 blunders on its crown." This is a problem which needs both 
 effort and width of view for its solution ; and we are trying to 
 solve it. I am glad that several of our band have won their 
 scholastic spurs and seen their names in print. But I think 
 the noblest work of our Class in the faculty is simply this: 
 that between the Scylla of pedantry and the Charybdis of the 
 Graduate Club cocktail they are trying to steer their way 
 toward a sphere of real usefulness to mankind. 
 
 Sometimes we win, sometimes we fail, 
 
 Now seers, now grinds ; but evermore 
 We try to make our lives avail 
 For God, for country, and for Yale, 
 And Nineteen-four.

 John Day Ackley 
 
 Residence, New Milford, Conn. 
 Business Address, Copake, N. Y. 
 
 Born November 24, 1879, at New Milford, Conn., the son of 
 George B. Ackley, a farmer of New Milford, Conn., and Caroline 
 Averill (Sperry) Ackley. He prepared at Hopkins Grammar 
 School, New Haven, Conn. He is unmarried. 
 
 Ackley has been president and manager of the Copake 
 Telephone Company since July 25, 1908. He writes : 
 
 "After spending a few weeks at home, I started for New 
 York City and took a room on the 'rath' floor of a house on 
 Forty-seventh Street, near Fifth Avenue. Tried soliciting 
 for the New York Life Insurance Company, but after about 
 two weeks I decided that I was 'in wrong' and went to work 
 for the American Telephone & Telegraph Company, where I 
 have since been. My first year with the American Telephone 
 & Telegraph Company as 'material man' was spent in or near 
 Putnam, Conn., Blackstone, R. I., Boston and Springfield, 
 Mass., Troy and Schenectady, N. Y., and Hudson, N. Y. 
 My second year was spent mostly in Pennsylvania and New 
 Jersey at various points : Scranton, Wilkesbarre, Towanda, 
 Allentown, Reading, Harrisburg, and Philadelphia, and some 
 small New Jersey towns. From there I went south to Mobile, 
 Ala., and spent a part of one year down there in Mississippi, 
 Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee and Kentucky. I then crossed 
 the Ohio River into Indiana and went from there to Ohio 
 (Cincinnati and Columbus) and from Columbus to Pittsburg, 
 Pa., where I spent most of one winter. I then went East 
 again to Hudson, Boston, Springfield, successively, all this 
 
32 BIOGRAPHIES 
 
 time in the construction department of the American Tele- 
 phone & Telegraph Company. In Springfield I was trans- 
 ferred to the plant department of the American Telephone & 
 Telegraph Company and went to Syracuse, N. Y. I stayed 
 there about three months, then came to New York City and 
 was with the New York Telephone Company all winter. In 
 the spring of 1908 the Copake Telephone Company was 
 incorporated and in this company I have been actively inter- 
 ested since its incorporation. Its location covers various 
 points in Dutchess and Columbia Counties, N. Y." 
 
 Ackley is a Mason and a member of the Woodmen and the 
 Grange.

 went to the Union Trust Company of Albany as assistant 
 manager of their bond department, but in July, 1907, I left 
 Albany and went to New Haven. Until February 1, 1910, I 
 lived there, being all the time connected with F. S. Butter-

 George Webster Adams 
 
 Residence, 316 West Ninety-seventh Street, New York City. 
 Business Address, 44 East Twenty-third Street, New York City. 
 
 Born May 21, 1880, in Utica, N. Y., the son of George Webster 
 Adams (died in August, 1896) and Laura (Crouse) Adams 
 (died in May, 1889). He prepared at Phillips Andover, and 
 in college was treasurer of the Sophomore Wigwam, manager of 
 the Dramatic Association, a member of the Cap and Gown Com- 
 mittee at Class Day, and a member of the Lotus Eaters, Delta 
 Kappa Epsilon, and Skull and Bones. 
 
 He was married on May 23, 1908, in West Chester, N. Y., to 
 Miss Hester Ferris, a graduate of the Pelham School (Miss 
 Hazen's), and daughter of Sarah Minerva (Bishop) Ferris and 
 Henry Ferris. They have no children. 
 
 Since December 1, 1909, Adams has been in the employ of 
 the Charles E. Merrill Company, publishers. Concerning his 
 recent life he writes : 
 
 "After leaving college and on August 1, 1904, I entered 
 the employ of the Utica & Mohawk Valley Railway Company, 
 the local street railway company of Utica, where I stayed 
 two years. I worked in the shops, mostly night work. I was 
 night foreman of the car barns and later assistant foreman 
 of a division in the electrification of the West Shore road from 
 Utica to Syracuse. In August, 1906, I left the employ of 
 the street railway company and in November, 1906, entered 
 the employ of the J. H. Williams Company, Utica, N. Y., 
 manufacturer of supplies for cotton and woolen mills. In 
 this company I was elected to the board of directors and held 
 
34 BIOGRAPHIES 
 
 the office of vice-president, later changing to secretary and 
 treasurer. I stayed with this company until May, 1909, 
 when I decided I wished to enter the larger business field 
 of New York City and so resigned my position in this busi- 
 ness. Since leaving college to the spring of 1908 my 
 home had been at 311 Geneva Street, Utica, N. Y. I was 
 married in May, 1908, and after a trip abroad took up my 
 residence at 85 Cornelia Street, Utica, N. Y. In April, 
 1908, I was appointed by the Governor of New York State 
 a manager of the Rome State Custodial Asylum at Rome, 
 N. Y., a state institution for feeble-minded persons, of 
 about one thousand inmates. When I decided to move to 
 New York City I resigned this position. During the winter 
 (1909-10) I lived at the Hotel Iroquois, 49 East Forty- 
 fourth Street, New York City, and have but recently taken 
 up my residence at 316 West Ninety-seventh Street." 
 
 Adams is a member of the Fort Schuyler Club of Utica, 
 N. Y., and of the New York Yale Club. 
 
 Frederick Charles Aldinger 
 
 Address, 226 Genesee Street, Lansing, Mich. 
 
 Born December 21, 1873, in Frankfort, N. Y., the son of John 
 Aldinger, a farmer, and Sarah (Evans) Aldinger. He prepared 
 at Drake University, Des Moines, Iowa, entering Yale in Sep- 
 tember, 1903 (fall of Senior year). After receiving the degree 
 of B. A. in 1904, Aldinger continued his studies at Yale until 
 1905, when he received the degree of M. A. He also received 
 the degree of B. D. in 1907 from Chicago University after two

OF GRADUATES 35 
 
 "After leaving Yale in 1905, I studied two years in the 
 University of Chicago. Then I was called to the pastorate 
 of the First Church of Christ, Grand Rapids, Mich. 
 Charges of heresy were here made against me and I then 
 began preaching for an independent religious organization 
 in the Jewish Temple. In January, 1909, I accepted an 
 offer to become pastor of the Church of Our Father (Uni- 
 versalist) of Lansing, Mich." 
 
 Arthur Williams Allen 
 
 Residence, 6l Willard Street, Hartford, Conn. 
 Business Address, 127 Trumbull Street, Hartford, Conn. 
 
 Born November 10, 1881, in Brooklyn, N. Y., the son of 
 Francis Burke Allen, vice-president of the Hartford Steam Boiler 
 Inspection & Insurance Company, 56 Prospect Street, Hartford, 
 Conn., residing at 61 Willard Street, Hartford, and Margaret 
 Louise (Williams) Allen. He prepared at the Hartford Public 
 High School, and in college was a member of the Freshman, 
 Apollo and University Glee Clubs ; the University Football Squad 
 and Water Polo Teams in Junior and Senior years, and of Alpha 
 Delta Phi. Although never playing in a Yale-Harvard or Yale- 
 Princeton game, Allen was awarded a football cap by the Foot- 
 ball Association. He is unmarried. 
 
 Allen has been in charge of the fire and marine branch for 
 the firm of Allen, Russell & Allen (W. B. Allen, '01, T. W.

 Anderson has been head of the Latin department and a

 Pawling, N. Y., since September, 1907. He writes : 
 
 "I entered the faculty of St. Paul's School, Garden City, 
 L. I., as assistant in Latin in September, 1904. After teach- 
 ing there for three years difficulties arose between the head- 
 master and the cathedral corporation. The result was the 
 resignation of the entire faculty and the founding by Dr. 
 Gamage and his former associates, of the Pawling School. 
 It is interesting to know that of the founders four are Yale 
 men : Kendall, '95 ; Horace M. Snyder, '95 ; George Jacobus, 
 '95 ; George W. Anderson, '04. The school bids fair to be 
 very successful. This year we have received gifts aggregat- 
 ing $200,000. The Clueet Memorial Building is up and 
 dedicated. A gymnasium and infirmary have been assured, 
 as well as sufficient funds to construct a modern athletic field.

 higher ideal of honesty, a stronger ideal of loyalty, a deeper

 and a truer ideal of friendship for having known him, and 
 that in our hearts, we ask to live not speak our tribute to his 
 life."

 editor of the Saturday Chronicle of New Haven; was a

 year; also worked for the New Haven Union and Register, 
 as well as being correspondent for the Boston Globe, New 
 York Sun, Philadelphia Press and other papers. In Febru- 
 ary, 1902, on board the Roosevelt special, he made a record 
 trip to Boston (two hours and forty- three minutes) for the 
 Boston Globe. He was the only newspaper man aboard, the 
 rest of the party being Mr. Cortelyou, Mr. Roosevelt, and 
 secret service and railway officials. He was also during his 
 college course a member of the choir of St. John's Church 
 and of the Newman Club, a Catholic club organized in 1903. 
 Concerning his recent life he writes : 
 
 "On leaving college I simply continued my work on the 
 staff of the New Haven Palladium, advancing to the desk of 
 city editor on August 29, 1904. I continued in that 
 capacity until November 5, 1905, when I came to Waterbury 
 to accept a more promising position with the Waterbury 
 Republican. The paper was then in the midst of plans for 
 a special anniversary edition and I was at once assigned to 
 the completion of that. I wrote several articles not only on 
 the institutions of Waterbury but the towns of the Nauga- 
 tuck valley, including Winsted, Torrington, Thomaston, 
 
OF GRADUATES 47 
 
 Watertown, Naugatuck, Seymour and Derby. These stories 
 included descriptions of the places, studies of their resources, 
 manufactures, and other features and were freely illus- 
 trated. In addition my work included the preparation of 
 scores of biographical sketches of prominent men throughout 
 the Naugatuck valley, and the issue was one of the most 
 notable in Connecticut newspaper annals. It was edited by 
 Mr. W. M. Lathrop. Advertising soliciting was another 
 part of the work and included the chasing down of copy for 
 a large number of large and small contracts. 
 
 "Taking up reporting again at the close of this work, I 
 became city editor of the Republican January 20, 1906, and 
 was advanced to night editor November 30, 1908, and to 
 managing editor February 1, 1910. 
 
 "My residence until coming to Waterbury was at my home, 
 226 Washington Avenue, New Haven. In Waterbury it 
 was successively at the following addresses: 21 Leavenworth 
 Street, Farmington Avenue, 29 Cooke Street, and 70 Linden 
 Street. Since my marriage it has been at 237 Willow Street. 
 
 "In addition to my connection with the Republican I am 
 Waterbury correspondent for The Metal Industry, New 
 York, and press agent for the Poli theaters (except Poli's) 
 in Waterbury. 
 
 "In October and November of 1909 I made a trip to 
 Bermuda, stopping at the Hamilton Hotel and seeing the 
 places of interest on the islands usually pointed out to 
 tourists, as well as some not usually pointed out, such as the 
 newspaper offices. Was entertained by the former mayor 
 of St. George's, Mr. Hayward, one of the characters of the 
 islands closely identified with their last half century's growth 
 and improvement. It was he who proved of most assistance 
 to Professor Verrill of Yale, who is the author of the princi- 
 pal book on Bermuda extant."

 it with fruit trees. I was joined November 1, 1908, by Henry 
 K. Love, '04, to whom I sold a half interest in the place, 
 which we called Bear Springs Ranch. We lived there just a 
 year together developing it until almost forty acres were 
 under cultivation. In the meanwhile my brother had added 
 contractors' supplies to the marine hardware business and 
 had extended it so widely as to need my help, and consequent- 
 ly Henry Love and I secured a superintendent for the ranch 
 and left it, I moving to Portland where I am living with my 
 father and mother and two brothers, and Henry Love to 
 Chicago."

 Benedict is at present an instructor in bookkeeping in the 
 English High School, Boston, Mass. Of his life since gradu- 
 ation he writes : 
 
 "For the summer following graduation I served as stenog- 
 rapher to Hon. Ernest M. Roberts, United States representa- 
 tive from the Seventh Massachusetts District, during an 
 exciting campaign for his renomination and election a 
 successful one. 
 
 "The succeeding fall I went to Rollins College, Winter 
 Park, Fla., as head of the commercial department, and coach 
 of the first football team of that institution. While there 
 rowed No. 5 on the winning crew in the first eight-oar shell 
 race ever held in the Southern States, at Tampa, Fla. The 
 year was exceedingly pleasant, but after returning North in 
 the spring of 1905 I married and, not caring to take my wife 
 so far from home, I resigned my position at Rollins. 
 
 "From September, 1905, through June, 1907, I was at the 
 head of the commercial department of the Edward Little 
 High School at Auburn, Me. 
 
 "In September, 1907, I went to Fitchburg, Mass., as head 
 of the commercial department in the high school at that 
 place, remaining there three years. During my last year I 
 was president of the Fitchburg Teachers' Association. 
 
 "In January, 1910, I took the examinations for a position 
 as instructor in commercial branches in the Boston public 
 schools. Passing, with the highest rank of those taking the 
 examination, I was in June, 1910, appointed instructor in 
 bookkeeping at the English High School of Boston, which 
 position I now hold. 
 
 "In January, 1911, I was elected president of the Track 
 and Field League of the Boston High Schools, this organi-

 "After graduating in 1904, being in poor health, I 
 remained in New Haven until June, 1906, when I came to 
 New York with the intention of studying law at Columbia 
 University; but here, my health still being poor, I was 
 advised by my physicians not to enter upon the study of 
 law, nor follow any pursuit that was essentially literary in 
 its nature, until I had fully recovered from a threatened 
 nervous breakdown. Acting upon the advice of my physi- 
 cians, therefore, I, in July, 1906, began work with the Afro- 
 American Realty Company of New York City, in the 
 capacity of soliciting agent. In November of the same year 
 I was chosen a director of the same company, to fill a vacancy 
 that had occurred during the summer of 1906. In January, 
 1908, I ceased active connection with this company and com- 
 menced the study of law at the New York Law School, the 
 secretary and dean of which are both Yale men. On the 
 first of May, 1908, I commenced a clerkship in the law office 
 of Atkins, Collins & Toney, and am still connected with the 
 same office in the practice of law."

 "During the summer following graduation, I spent my

 until September 5, 1904, when I secured a position as clerk, 
 in Chicago, 111., with Sears, Roebuck & Company, a large mail 
 order house, with whom I remained seven weeks and then 
 resigned and immediately went to St. Louis, where, while 
 looking for a position, I was taken seriously ill and remained 
 inactive until the following February. I then entered the 
 Jamaica Training School for teachers at Jamaica, Long 
 Island, N. Y., and secured my license after one year's resi-

 dence at that school. Ill health again kept me inactive for 
 eight months, seven of which I spent traveling about in 
 England, France, Belgium, Austria and Switzerland. The 
 most noteworthy incident in my travels was the fact that I 
 was taken with appendicitis while in Carlsbad. 
 
 "Upon my return to America on September 27, 1906, I 
 entered the Long Island College Hospital with the class of 
 1910, and was graduated from there on June 1, 1910, with 
 the degree of M. D. I received the Dudley Memorial Gold 
 Medal for the best medical clinical report of a medical case 
 in the wards of the hospital and a special diploma for excel- 
 lence in physical diagnosis. In a competitive examination 
 held in February, 1910, for interneship at the Long Island 
 College Hospital, containing five hundred beds, I secured first 
 place and chose the first surgical division, the term of service 
 being from March 1, 1910, to March 1, 1911. During the 
 last four years I did substitute teaching in the public schools 
 of New York City when not attending my medical school. 
 During the summer of 1909 I did resident substitute work of 
 interne at the Long Island College Hospital. 
 
 "In the latter part of February, 1910, on account of ill- 
 ness, I was compelled to resign my interneship at the hospital. 
 In June, 1910, 1 took my State Board Medical Examinations 
 for New York and New Jersey and received licenses to prac- 
 tice medicine and surgery in both states. On October 26, 
 1910, I left Brooklyn, N. Y., for California where I shall 
 remain for an indefinite period. I am not engaged in prac-

 "I have always looked forward with a great deal of pleas-

 large leather chair surrounded by millions of volumes of 
 books and write my autobiography. This time seemed in 
 the dim distance, when I ought to be gray and have an 
 eight dollar set of teeth; but here I am out of college six 
 years, with a few gray hairs and no false teeth, now writing 
 my autobiography, which I trust will be read by countless 
 thousands in generations to come. 
 
 "I have not gotten used to writing autobiographies, so if 
 I pass lightly over some of the wonderful things I have accom- 
 plished in the past few years, I trust my readers will pardon 
 my shyness.

 "In the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and 
 eighty-one on the 29th day of September of that great year, 
 a strapping young boy was born in Scranton, who afterward 
 assumed the name of David Boies. I have lived here ever 
 since with the exception of my meteoric career in college and 
 in preparation for college, when my legal residence was 
 moved to Lakeville, Conn. I use the word 'legal' as that is 
 the spot where I contracted the bills. 
 
 "After graduation from college, before the world at large 
 learned of my great ability, I accepted the very responsible 
 position of back sight man on a surveying corps that worked 
 in the mines, not because I knew anything about the back 
 sight position, but it was because I thought that I could lift 
 the calling of the back sight man. 
 
 "Nobody seemed to appreciate the great work I was doing 
 until 'Ted' Clucas came to visit me one time in Scranton. 
 To show how brave I was and the dangers I encountered in 
 this hazardous profession, I took him down in the mines and 
 got him so terrified at the terrible risks run and the large rats 
 encountered in the mines that I took about two inches off his 
 stature. He returned to New York and, to show how brave 
 he was, told everybody that I had Columbus looking like a 
 scared child on a dark night for bravery. 
 
 "After most everybody that had been employed on the 
 various corps in the mines had been killed through mine 
 disasters, at the earnest solicitation of the populus of this 
 great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, I gave up my calling 
 as back sight man and looked for other fields to conquer. 
 
 "After about one month of looking, I decided to take up 
 the management of the Spencer Heater Company, at which 
 job I am still working. The chief reason I felt that I was 
 adapted to this most honorable position was due to my great 
 reputation as a 'hot air artist' during my college career. 
 
 "Since undertaking this work most of my time has been 
 
OF GRADUATES 59 
 
 spent in correspondence with Attorneys Parks and Munson, 
 getting them to collect past due accounts for me, to be sure 
 never with the idea of getting any money back for the 
 Spencer Heater Company, but simply to inconvenience the 
 firms that were debtors to the Spencer Heater Company. 
 These attorneys have always been most successful in the col- 
 lection of my accounts, although the money received by the 
 Heater Company on all occasions has been on the right 
 hand side of the decimal point. All the figures on the left 
 hand side of the decimal point, according to their rules, are 
 held by the attorney for fees. 
 
 "I cannot refrain from calling the Class' attention to the 
 results that can be obtained by the use of either of these 
 attorneys on any legal action relative to the collection of 
 past due accounts. 
 
 "Desiring to serve my country I enlisted in the Thirteenth 
 Regiment of the National Guard of Pennsylvania as a pri- 
 vate, and served one year in that honorable capacity. Due 
 to a fine tailor, I secured, after the first year's service, the 
 position of second lieutenant and arose by leaps and bounds 
 from that office to the position of captain, which I now hold 
 with honor to myself and the great Commonwealth of Penn- 
 sylvania, which I just spoke of above in the first few pages of 
 my life's history. 
 
 "A complete history of my travels will be found in the 
 second volume of my autobiography which will be published 
 next year. However, at this time it would not seem out of 
 place to make a few remarks relative to the experience and 
 noteworthy events connected with some of the expeditions I 
 have made in the Far East. Most of the expeditions termi- 
 nated in the East at New York, where on numerous occasions 
 I shoot that most elusive animal the Bazoon. There have 
 been a good many hunters shooting the Bazoon in the past, 
 but the species seem to multiply with greater rapidity than 
 
60 BIOGRAPHIES 
 
 the elusive jackrabbit. Some members of the Class have 
 endeavored at times I have known to exterminate the species, 
 but they never succeeded very well, although the attempt has 
 been most laudable. 
 
 "The most noteworthy incidents that ever occurred on 
 these travels are the class banquets, all of which have been 
 most successful affairs from everybody's standpoint, even 
 including the man who came all the way from San Francisco 
 to secure the long distance cup, but was defeated in that 
 memorable trip of Bronson Warren's from heaven to earth."

 "My history since leaving Yale is simply the story of an 
 endless struggle to get to press on time, an operation quite 
 sufficient in itself to keep the performer from the pangs of 
 ennui, but offering few features of interest to the casual 
 reader. In March, 1905, I went to the Boston office of the 
 Associated Press as night filing editor, remaining there until 
 October, 1906, when I took the position of sporting editor 
 on the Waterbury American. Since that time I have been 
 successively telegraph editor, city editor and associate editor. 
 My travels have been mainly confined to an annual pursuit 
 of the football team to Cambridge, or Princeton and West 
 Point, and a swift 'hike' to the nearest Green Mountain 
 trout brook when a vacation offered itself. As for politics 
 a newspaper man is happier and more useful if he keeps well 
 on the outside."

 "I have been in A. W. Erickson Advertising Agency 
 since graduation and am now secretary of it and junior 
 partner. In 1909 I decided that the trouble with American 
 politics lay in their needless complexity and that the right 
 route to political reform lay in the direction of simplifying 
 the work of the people down to a point where the politician, 
 or 'political expert,' would have no advantage over the 
 ordinary citizen. I wrote a pamphlet entitled 'The Short 
 Ballot Idea,' published articles in the Outlook and 
 Saturday Evening Post and started 'The Short Ballot 
 Organization' with Woodrow Wilson, Norman Hapgood, 
 Winston Churchill and Ben B. Lindsey among its officers. I 
 became its secretary and executive officer and am running a 
 publicity bureau in New York City. The movement has 
 spread very rapidly and is changing the direction of reform 
 efforts all over the country. Three governors, Hughes, Fort 
 and Hay, have declared for it and legislation reducing the 
 number of elective offices is pending in several legislatures.

 since graduation writes: 
 
 "Immediately after leaving college, I suggested to Mr. 
 W. L. Gushing, headmaster of Westminster School, Sims- 
 bury, Conn., that I could teach German because I knew more 
 about it than a kid who knew nothing, and because I could 
 keep half a lap ahead of the class. I was not found out, and 
 kept on raising the ante until the spring of 1908. From 
 September, 1908, till June, 1909, I lubricated the mind of a 
 certain Standard Oil heir, and in the doing traveled in Italy? 
 France and Egypt, enjoying the experience, then no longer 
 novel to me, of having Wernicke pay the freight. I recuper- 
 ated in Canada during the summer of 1909, and in the fall 
 went to Farmington, Conn., as tutor. In March, 1910, I

OF GRADUATES 85 
 
 "Upon securing my ticket of leave (i.e. diploma), rest from 
 my labors, particularly arduous during Senior year (ten 
 hours per week mostly lectures plus one baseball game at 
 Lighthouse Point), required me to flee to Colorado, where I 
 should probably have been yet had not the Republican candi- 
 date for president personally requested me to return to my 
 polling place Hartford. Whereupon an insane desire to 
 work pervaded my system and after several offers of jobs as 
 an office boy, I chose the least active and the Travelers Insur- 
 ance Company handed me some four and one half by six and 
 one quarter inch cards to sort. It so happened that after 
 four years the company was forced to quit its quarters and 
 I became a 'prime mover.' I bossed the Dagos so well, ap- 
 parently, moving furniture and such truck, that I bossed the 
 clerks awhile and was then given the job of bossing the 
 managers in the field from my eyrie on the seventh floor, a 
 stunt I am still indifferently perhaps performing. From 
 the liability department I passed into the boiler and fly wheel 
 division (which division, by the way, is formally and techni- 
 cally named The Travelers Indemnity Company). But here 
 (or there) I am properly labeled, I suppose, casualty insur- 
 ance underwriter. Let's hear now from the Harrimans and

 dam over the Susquehanna River at Oneonta, N. Y., from 
 August 9 to November 1, 1907. I studied high finance with 
 Shearson, Hamill & Company, corner Broadway and Rector 
 Streets, New York City, from November 1 to December 1, 
 1907, and was successful in that study. I removed to 
 Chicago, 111., December 1, 1907, and studied high finance in 
 the office of W. R. Holligan & Company, 15 The Rookery, 
 Chicago, from December 15, 1907, to July 1, 1908, and 
 learned everything concerning stocks, bonds, wheat, wheat 
 privileges and corn, during that time. I, however, could not 
 agree with Mr. E. H. Harriman, now deceased, which was 
 decidedly detrimental to the study of high finance as practiced 
 in Wall Street, New York City. 
 
 "I was appointed superintendent of track elevation for the 
 Chicago Junction Railway Company on July 1, 1908, and 
 still hold the job. I tried to break Mr. J. A. Patten in his 
 corner of May wheat, 1909. In this I was unsuccessful, as 
 statistics will prove. I abandoned the study of high finance 
 soon after, until such time as Mr. E. H. Harriman departed 
 this life and Mr. J. A. Patten went insane !"

 coast to coast later, and many were the delightful trips that 
 were taken, well seasoned with medals, cups and records, to 
 say nothing of flirtations and rough house. In the fall I

 entered the long grind Marathon, 'medicine,' tore off a few 
 laps in special science at Chicago University, with some track 
 work on the side, including Michigan's scalp, and finished at 
 Rush Medical College. The call of suffering humanity and 
 the elusive dollar led me to Indiana, especially the elusive 
 dollar which grows on low bushes in Hammond. This rapidly 
 growing city is north of the literature and farm belt. It is 
 just across the line from Chicago, which will itself soon be 
 surpassed by the Hammond-Gary district with 150,000 souls 
 already. Being broke at first, I could lose nothing, so I 
 braved the panic, and now I can't count my money, it goes 
 too fast. At our Indiana Club picnic at George Ade's villa 
 last week it was said that 'Indiana is full of great people who 
 have left it' ; so, true to tradition, our son Bill is 'presidential 
 timber' and good for a 'Y.' Professionally I am well located, 
 having opportunities for considerable surgery, especially 
 accident work, as one of the industries for which I am surgeon 
 employs 5,000 to 7,000 men. It was a big disappointment to 
 miss the class reunion, but the above work and an impending 
 real estate deal kept me home. Here's to 'O^!"

 honorable salary of five dollars per. My first few months in 
 the draughting room were spent in carrying on a heavy 
 foreign correspondence with Joe Gray, '04, in Cuba and 
 George Victor, '04, in Germany. After about a year in the 
 draughting room I was transferred to the sales department 
 and started out to land all the terra cotta contracts in the 
 United States. My first attempt to land a job was in Phila- 
 delphia. When the office boy told me that the boss was out it 
 was a great relief to me. In 1906 the Perth Amboy Company 
 was merged with several other concerns and I was then trans- 
 ferred to the New York office ; later I went to Boston and in 
 1907 opened up a southern office for the company in Atlanta, 
 Ga. In 1908 the Atlantic Company took over the Atlanta 
 Terra Cotta Company and I went with that company as 
 general sales agent and in January, 1909, was elected vice- 
 president of the Atlanta Terra Cotta Company. It is a 
 source of continual regret to me that, owing to the fact that 
 I am living in Atlanta, I am out of touch with the class. 
 There is not one of our men here. I occasionally have a 
 chance to see a man as he passes through and owing to the 
 fact that this state is in the throes of state wide prohibition 
 am able to be of considerable relief. (Joe Gray and George

 Providence. I was with this concern till the fall of 1909,

 have lived in four different places, moving in the spring of 
 1906 from Hidden Street to 262 Benefit Street, and thence 
 in 1907 to 384 Benefit Street. In the fall of 1909 I took

 Hill has been an instructor in French at Yale since Sep- 
 tember, 1908. He received the degree of M. A. from Yale 
 in 1905 and writes : 
 
 "The first year after graduation, attracted by a paltry 
 scholarship, and being still undecided about a future occupa- 
 tion, I remained at Yale continuing the study of Romance 
 languages. In September, 1905, I went to Cheltenham 
 Military Academy at Elkins Park, Pa., supposedly for the 
 purpose of teaching some French and German, but really, as 
 I learned later, to inflict military discipline upon incorrigi- 
 ble youth. After a year of varied and exceedingly interest- 
 ing experiences, I spent the following summer as a private 
 tutor in Northern New York and on Cape Cod. The 
 following autumn, 1906, I became instructor in Romance 
 languages at Syracuse University, Syracuse, N. Y., where I 
 remained two years. These two years at a 'co-ed' institution 
 were a novel and very pleasant experience, but when in the 
 spring of 1908 I was offered an instructorship in French at 
 the Alma Mater, I naturally did not hesitate about accepting 
 it. Since September, 1908, I have been teaching here in 
 New Haven, combining this with study in the graduate 
 school. During the summers of 1907 and 1909 I was in 
 Europe; the first time on a general trip through France, 
 Switzerland and Italy, and the second almost entirely in 
 France, mostly at Paris, where I devoted some of my time to 
 photographing and studying manuscripts of early French 
 literature."

 work on the Asheville & East Tennessee Railroad. Then I 
 got a job in Banes and am now busy watching sugar cane 
 grow. As for incidents, the hurricanes of 1906 and 1909 
 were some breezy, and in conclusion I maintain the superiority 
 of agricultural life in the tropics."

 college education helps a man for the two duties mentioned 
 above, as well as others not spoken of. I also spent a few 
 months learning how unimportant a college graduate is 
 anyway. I think the learning of that was a good step in 
 advance.

 Kerr is an attorney-at-law, having received the degree of 
 LL. B. at the Western University of Pennsylvania in June, 
 1907. He writes: 
 
 "I left college in June and began to descend rapidly to 
 earth. What winged me was the discovery that every 
 mucker I rubbed up against could do about everything I 
 could do, better and in just half the time, a discovery which 
 each true Eli makes, I believe. I commenced the study of law 
 in the fall and kept at it hard, keeping in physical trim by 
 long week-end walks and strenuous camping trips in North- 
 western Ontario in the summer. I was admitted to the bar 
 on June 12, 1907, just in time to go back to Triennial with 
 the consciousness that I had at least a chance to be somebody. 
 The success of some of my classmates in the three years and 
 the failure of others both inspired me. I went back prepared 
 to slaughter the first poor devil of a lawyer who crossed 
 swords with me, but unfortunately no victim offered for quite 
 a while. In the meantime I spent a delightful year or so 
 playing the old familiar game of huckle buckle, made famous 
 by Tonda and 'Trot' Lewis, '04, all the while hearing wonder- 
 ful reports of great cases won by classmates in distant cities 
 and of the fabulous honoraria received for their services. My 
 life has been uneventful, as most young attorneys' lives are. 
 It is a game of patience and plugging. The great objection 
 I have to law is the fact that you cannot seek work and how- 
 ever anxious you are to chew things up you must wait to have 
 the fodder brought to your stall. God bless the author of 
 the Honorable Peter Stirling ! 
 
 "The Legal Aid Society of Pittsburg, in which a number 
 of Yale men are interested, served as an outlet for my excess 
 legal energy during the formative period and now a few 
 soft-hearted clients have found the way to my office and the 
 great battle is on in earnest."

 Love is at present agent for the Bitter Root Valley Irriga- 
 tion Company, sellers of fruit lands. He writes : 
 
 "After leaving college I entered the employ of N. W. 
 Halsey & Company, bankers, 49 Wall Street, New York 
 City. The confinement of office work proving bad for my 
 health, I left the above firm May 1, 1908, going West and 
 knocking about the lumber woods of the coast for the next 
 six months, three months of which were spent in the Redwoods 
 of California with a camp of timber cruisers. In November, 
 1908, I went into partnership with Gerald E. Beebe, '04, in 
 Bear Springs Ranch, Underwood, Wash., where we spent 
 the next year raising fruit. In December, 1909, I came to 
 Chicago to look after some property interests here and am 
 temporarily engaged in selling fruit land for the Bitter Root 
 Valley Irrigation Company. It is my intention to return 
 West and raise fruit as soon as circumstances will permit, 
 so you can put me down as a fruit grower by profession. 
 When in New York I was a member of the Essex Troop and 
 the Yale Club."

 "History has little concern with 'the short and simple 
 annals of the poor'; but to whom it may concern, this brief 
 autobiography is herewith dedicated. 
 
 "After the somber close of our great graduation cere- 
 monies, and after 'Brad' Brinton, '04 S., and I had concluded 
 the obsequies of the 'Commencement Issue of the Yale Daily 
 News' (a pleasing graft which netted us a salubrious profit), 
 I left New Haven (last of the non-resident members of the 
 class to do so: and a gloomy and forlorn departure it was) 
 to spend the summer with my hospitable and gifted room- 
 mate, Paul Ney, in Hartford, Farmington, Waterbury, 
 South Glastonbury, Watch Hill, and all points east. Then 
 followed three pleasant years of teaching (chiefly English, 
 with a dash of French and a taint of Latin) at the Hotchkiss 
 School, Lakeville, Conn. The three summers were spent in 
 Connecticut, in the towns mentioned above, with the addition 
 of Lakeville and Salisbury. I awoke one morning in April, 
 1907, to find myself appointed instructor in English in Yale 
 College, with a three-year tenure of office. A summer was all 
 too brief a period for adequate preparation ; but on the ever- 
 memorable 25th of September, 1907, I faced my first class in 
 Freshman English 'sustained and calmed by an unfaltering' 
 bluff, and have ever since then continued with varying success 
 in the arduous endeavor to keep at least one day's lesson 
 ahead of my students. Meanwhile I entered the Yale Gradu- 
 ate School in September, 1908, and little by little am working 
 toward that consummation devoutly to be wished the degree 
 of Doctor of Philosophy. I should have it by our Quin-

 in 1908 and 1910, with occasional visits out of town, and 
 spent June 25 to September 15, 1909, in Munich, Bavaria, 
 whence I brought back increased girth and throat measure- 
 ments, some smattering of uncouth vocables, a cosmopolitan 
 breadth of view, and a rich russet mustache. My special 
 occupation at present is preparation for a course of thirty 
 lectures on 'Minor Authors in Nineteenth Century Prose,'

 I made a trip to Reno, Nev., to witness an altercation 
 between Johnson and Jeffries, but unlike many others I did 
 not bet on Jeffries. I have become almost as rabid on the

 a job in a law office. I finally secured one (unsalaried) at 
 the office of Wilson Brown, Jr., 120 Railroad Avenue, White 
 Plains, where I became an expert at serving papers and

 putting stamps on envelopes. I entered the New York Law 
 School in the fall of 1904, worked mornings and went to 
 school afternoons. This did not seem to agree with me 
 being pushed with work never did so in 1905 I went to the 
 Yale Law School. Here I found Newell Jennings, '04, and 
 Kirkham and Mendell, '04, were in the Graduate School. I 
 roomed with Kirkham in Farnam. All these men had been 
 intimate friends of mine in college, so I had a good time 
 besides a lot of work. Sam Hemingway, '04, was also in the 
 Graduate School and lived in New Haven. Long life to him ! 
 He and Billy Phelps made it possible for me to stick the cor- 
 poration for an M. A. Hemingway by lending me books and 
 Billy by easing up on me in the extra reading. I had a fine 
 two years of it and landed my LL. B. and M. A. handily. 
 
 "There being no excuse for further study at Yale, I was 
 forced in 1907 to actually see if I couldn't get to work. Not, 
 however, before I had a good ten days' trip to Nova Scotia 
 and back as a reward for passing the New York Bar exami- 
 nations on the day of the Yale-Harvard Baseball Game in my 
 triennial year. 
 
 "I again tapped Wilson's office for room for my legs and 
 after I had been there a little over a year John R. Bushong, 
 Yale '00, came there as managing clerk. We soon became 
 good friends. This was about September, 1908. I had been 
 making enough to buy clothes while having desk room, but 
 of course that isn't like having an office to yourself and being 
 called 'Counsellor' by the court officers and clerks. So in 
 January, 1909, 'Bush' and I started out with thirty- two 
 dollars and a half. We have been going ever since and have 
 made a living thereat now for over a year. 
 
 "I am so glad I went to Yale. Why, just think of having 
 missed 'Billy' Sumner or President Hadley's gestures! 
 While an undergraduate, I at times had my doubts as to 
 whether I ought not to have gone to a smaller college ; I now

 can't see why there is any use going or even thinking of 
 going anywhere else. So I say, as I said on June , 1904, 
 'For God, for country and for Yale' and also for Yale 
 1904!"

 "Having said good-by to Wiggins, I left New Haven on 
 the night after, with only my faithful Prophylactic securely 
 wrapped up in my sheepskin and, reaching Hartford, thrust 
 my legs once more 'under the old man's table.' Waking from 
 a four years' reverie next morning at six a.m., I went to 
 work, as low down in the scale of organization of the gold 
 mines (the J. M. Ney Company) as possible. In the next 
 two weeks, I worked here eight years, receiving commenda- 
 tion and three dollars a month. My services were next 
 appreciated on the tobacco plantation of J. W. Alsop, Avon, 
 Conn. After having smoked half the crop, I took my dog 
 and one dollar and a half, the first stop being Idaho (I 
 started for Springfield but slept over) . Thence from ranch 
 to ranch, living mainly on cactus and mesquite, down through 
 New Mexico to Texas for several months and home again 
 via the Gulf of Mexico and a mess of tropical islands in the 
 south seas, hunting for the original 'Whizz fish.' In March, 
 1908, I again joined the commercial slaves making gold 
 bricks for the New York trade. After my marriage in 
 April, 1909, I dropped anchor in the good old Farmington

 school books for a little lady just three weeks old. Sic

 Nichols is now an instructor in botany in the Sheffield

 the society of Sigma Xi and in 1909 he received the degree of 
 Ph. D. from Yale and was elected to membership in the New 
 England Botanical Club. He writes: 
 
 "I happened to be one of those lucky individuals whom 
 kind providence and the course of events destined to remain 
 for a few years longer within reach of the campus. After 
 graduation I migrated to Sheff , where I have been connected 
 with the botanical department for the past six years. For 
 five of those years I washed bottles, blacked boots, and per- 
 formed like chores peculiar to the existence of an assistant, 
 gleaning a little knowledge here and there on the side. Inci- 
 dentally during that time, as proctor in Pierson Hall, I tried 
 my best to forget that I had ever been a Freshman myself. 
 My period of apprenticeship, however, terminated in 1909, 
 when I received a degree, and an appointment as instructor. 
 Although I can now advertise myself as a full-grown and 
 completely educated homo sapiens, I have not yet reached 
 the stage of the game where I can refrain from swearing 
 every time I open Tommy Thacher's touching appeal for con- 
 tributions to raise the professor's salaries. 
 
 "In connection with my work I taught at the Yale Forest 
 School during the summer of 1908 and have made several 
 more or less extensive botanical collecting and exploring 
 trips. The most noteworthy of the latter was to Jamaica 
 during the summer of 1906 in company with several other 
 distinguished botanists. During the summer of 1910 I

 Knox, '04, I had no startling adventures. Upon my return 
 I made the first move towards a married existence, and with 
 three other men took a house at 306 Earlham Terrace, Ger- 
 mantown. Philadelphia is a very poor Yale town and I 
 very seldom saw any of the boys, but every once in a while 
 one would drop in. In February, 1909, I was married but 
 did not start housekeeping until October, when I took a house

 "I have spent half of the six years since 1904 in New 
 Haven, and half in the city of Washington. From 1904 to 
 1907 I was in the Yale Graduate School, majoring in eco- 
 nomics and acting as assistant to 'Bill' Bailey in his various 
 courses. The summer of 1906 I spent in Europe, traveling

 "Not to find his true and ultimate vocation at once upon 
 leaving college is the fate of many a graduate. My own 
 experience convinces me that such a fate may be kindly rather 
 than the reverse, in all that concerns one's truest welfare. 
 Yet whatever be one's point of view as to the kindness or 
 austerity of his own particular fate, if he has not found and 
 fitted himself into his true niche in life, it is up to him to keep 
 going until he gets there. And then, least of all, is it time 
 for him to fold his hands and say 'satis fed. 9 '

 den and Lafayette B. Mendel. The glimpse into the field of 
 natural science was of distinct value, and the faculty accepted 
 the proffered fee for a master's degree, but it was quite 
 evident that Darwin's soul must have transmigrated else- 
 where. During the next autumn there was much dabbling in 
 various departments at Columbia University, and from Janu- 
 ary to October, 1906, 1 acted as probation officer in the Court 
 of General Sessions, New York City, under a fellowship of the 
 University Settlement, succeeding Maurice Parmelee, '04, 
 who later followed his work by study abroad and the publica-

 these months as probation officer I resided at the University 
 Settlement. Finally the unrest ended, and there was a three 
 years' course at the Columbia Law School, during the second 
 and third years of which many delightful hours were spent in 
 the editorial rooms of the Columbia Law Review. In the 
 summer of 1908 I traveled in Colorado, Utah and Yellowstone

 Dr. O'Brien of this city as his assistant in surgery, and

 Nursery. I was appointed assistant city and county phy- 
 sician in October, 1909, and also got my commission at that 
 time. Between state, county, city and self I have enough to 
 do. Since our marriage we have lived at the place stated

 or wages enough to do any. We have no plans, believing that 
 the future will take care of itself. Here endeth the narra-

 Died 1907. 
 
 Born July 2, 1882, in Bridgehampton, Long Island, N. Y., the 
 son of William Medill Smith, a lawyer in the claim department

 esteemed by many friends for his manly character, his good 
 fellowship, and his high ideals. 
 
 His sudden death by his own hand at the Grand Union

 a sudden loss of mental balance due to the effects of a severe 
 fall while on the coast of Maine some time before. He was

 "I left Yale June 11, 1905, receiving my Ph. B. degree, 
 after having passed special examinations, and went directly 
 to Skagway, Alaska, with a party to locate the boundary 
 between Alaska and Canada. My position was assistant sur- 
 veyor. I stayed there till late in September, and then went 
 back to Chicago for a month. I went to Ithaca, N. Y., 
 where my chief of party, Prof. O. M. Leland, lived, and where 
 he established a government office for computing and plotting 
 the season's work of his party. I was the only one in the 
 office. Under my chief's direction I computed the triangula- 
 tions for three winters, going to Alaska on the survey for four 
 summers. The last summer, 1908, I had a little party of 
 my own up the Leduc River one hundred miles from any 
 civilization. We had to pack out our outfits so late in the 
 season that we nearly got caught; and we risked our lives 
 hourly for a whole month. I left the service in the fall of 
 1908 and took a two months' vacation. In January, 1909, 
 I went to work for George W. Jackson, Inc., as civil engineer

 specializing in Romance languages under the direction of the 
 Yale Graduate School. I spent one year in France (Paris) ; 
 six months in Spain (Madrid) ; three months in Italy (all 
 over) ; did special research work in Europe (critical study of 
 fifteenth and sixteenth century Spanish Cancionero manu- 
 scripts existing in France, Spain and Italy). While in

 appeared in 1907 in the Revue Hispanique, published at

 I spent the following year, 1907-08, in the Romance depart-

 Ph. D. degree. In 1908, by change of circumstances, I was 
 forced out of the above work and into the Yale Law School,

 I betook myself along with Tat' Sweet, '05, to help 'Herb' 
 
 Gallaudet, '98, in his religio-socio work among the sturdy 
 mountaineers of Western North Carolina. Here a most 
 delightful summer was spent among a backward race whom 
 we came to love and in whom we felt there were great possi- 
 bilities for advancement. The next fall I came to New York 
 as assistant at The Neighborhood House of the Spring Street 
 Presbyterian Church, succeeding Dudley Lewis, '03. After 
 a year of splendid experience among the problems of the 
 lower West Side, I went to Auburn Theological Seminary for

 country church near Syracuse, on my way home from which 
 I met 'Trot' Lewis, '04, with a gang of Irishmen whom he was 
 superintending in some construction work. At the time of

 accepted an opportunity as minister in charge of the down- 
 town work of the Second Presbyterian Church, called now the 
 Greeley Memorial Church, in the heart of a German working- 
 men's district, where I am trying to apply 'Bill' Bailey and 
 the New Testament to the needs of our great industrial

 of the poor and more and more out of patience with the sugar

 but am here very little of the time except Sundays, which I 
 aim to spend at home. At present I am contemplating mov-

 I travel. For the past three years I have been president of 
 the Presbyterian Baseball League of Chicago, which is an 
 organization devoted to church athletics. Otherwise my 
 career has been very uneventful except that I have done fairly 
 well in a business way, having made a good living and a little 
 more. Last fall I was presented with a fine son, who, if 
 nothing unforeseen happens, will attend Yale some time in 
 the next twenty years. I regret that I was unable to 
 spare the time to come East for Sexennial but hope to come 
 in 1914. My time is too much taken up at present."

 the school year moved to Rochester, N. Y., associating myself

 as junior partner of the law firm of Sutherland & Otis. That 
 firm was dissolved at the end of the year, Hon. William A.

 mission, and Alexander Otis giving up the practice of law. 
 I then removed to my present quarters in October, 1907, and 
 began a practice of law alone, until my practice grew so that 
 it became necessary for me to take in a partner. Being 
 unable to secure a Yale man, I was fortunate in securing Mr. 
 James L. Brewer, Syracuse '98, and since that time he has 
 been associated with me. During the year of 1906, I con- 
 ceived the idea that there was money in Eastern League 
 Baseball, so took a small interest in the Rochester Club of 
 the Eastern League, and became their secretary and treas- 
 urer. Either fortunately or unfortunately, a serious acci- 
 dent in the fall of the bleachers that year caused us to lose

 Company in all these places. At New Haven I was assistant 
 superintendent for the Connecticut territory and at Boston 
 filled the same position for the Massachusetts division, being

THE NEW DEAN OF YALE COLLEGE 
 FREDERICK S. JONES, '84 
 
YALE SINCE NINETEEN-FOUR 
 BY WILLARD H. DURHAM 
 
 If those of you who think that the last six years have 
 brought great changes to Yale should come back here, not at 
 Commencement, not at the time of a Harvard game, but for 
 a day or two in term time; if you should go once more into 
 classrooms and talk with undergraduates who knew you well 
 enough to be quite frank ; and if you should then settle your- 
 selves comfortably before my fire and tell me your impres- 
 sions, you would say, I imagine, that the place seemed very 
 different. But would you say that it was Yale which had 
 changed? Isn't the difference due to the fact that you now 
 see Yale from an office instead of from Vanderbilt? Between 
 the window of an office and the window of a dormitory there 
 is a great gulf fixed. 
 
 To me, at any rate, perhaps because I'm still looking from 
 the dormitory window, the place seems very much the same 
 as it did six years ago. The undergraduates who are troop- 
 ing by my window on their way to a Sunday service in 
 Woolsey might just as easily belong to the Class of 1904 as 
 to that of 1911. Those who come in now and then to tell 
 me of their troubles or their joys differ from us in little 
 beside names. The joyous mischief of this year's Freshman 
 is so amazingly like ours that I have difficulty in concealing 
 the fact that I know the end of his stories almost before he 
 begins. His cleverness is our cleverness, his foolishness our 
 foolishness, and he will grow as we grew. 
 
 With this likeness continually thrust upon me, do you 
 wonder that I have little eye for differences? It is the 
 undergraduates, after all, who make Yale what it is, and so 
 long as they remain true to the type developed through gen- 
 erations of their predecessors, Yale will retain its distinctive 
 
302 POT-POURRI 
 
 character. The fact that Yale has a characteristic type of 
 undergraduate, that this type varies so little from year to 
 year, suggests what are to me the most interesting things to 
 be said about the place but I was asked to write about 
 changes. 
 
 The very fact that I am sitting where I am, in the newest 
 of the Vanderbilt dormitories, implies the change which first 
 strikes the returning graduate. When we left College, only 
 one of the Sheffield Vanderbilts was completed, and the lions 
 of Lamson were still new enough to offer possibilities of 
 amusement. Since then Sheff has added this dormitory, the 
 Leet Oliver recitation hall, the Hammond Metallurgical 
 Laboratory, and has begun the Mason Laboratory of Me- 
 chanical Engineering. The College has built Haughton 
 Hall, the most convenient, although not the most beautiful, 
 of her dormitories, and has begun to plan for one which is to 
 be a memorial to Dean Wright. The University, as dis- 
 tinguished from its departments, has added Linsly Hall to the 
 assortment of south wings which serve the Library, has built 
 the Carnegie Swimming Pool, and has begun the new Sloane 
 Laboratory of Physics. With all these built or building, we 
 who remember Lyceum and North College and the old 
 Treasury building seem nearly as antediluvian as the old 
 grads who used to tell us about the Brick Row and the old 
 Fence. 
 
 As a result of this material growth the casual visitor can 
 realize much more easily than in the past the real wealth and 
 importance of the University. Moreover, just as Yale has 
 built much but sorely needs to build more, so she has grown 
 in wealth but remains poor. The assets of the University are 
 greater by nearly five and a half millions than they were in 
 1904, but they are still sadly insufficient to meet real needs. 
 
 The new buildings have, however, a much greater signifi- 
 cance than this. Quite apart from the internal changes 
 
YALE SINCE NINETEEN-FOUR 303 
 
 which some of them signify of which more presently they 
 indicate the beginning of a real architectural policy. There 
 is still confusion worse confounded. The corner of Grove 
 and College Streets must long remain an architectural night- 
 mare. Nevertheless, we have at last a supervising architect, 
 one of the American masters of collegiate Gothic ; we have 
 some definite notions of what the Vanderbilt and Pierson-Sage 
 squares are some day to be ; and we have reason to hope that, 
 whatever mistakes may be made in the future, the hit-or-miss 
 policy, with its superabundance of misses, is gone forever. 
 The University seems to be finding itself architecturally; it 
 seems to have realized at last that buildings express char- 
 acter. If there has been a growth in architectural unity, it 
 cannot but indicate a growth in internal unity. 
 
 This growth best appears, perhaps, in the plans for the 
 group of buildings which are to stand on the newly acquired 
 Hillhouse property, Pierson-Sage Square. When it was 
 first proposed to place there the new Physics Laboratory, 
 some very stout protests were made from the College. It 
 was felt that the plan for a laboratory to be used in common 
 by Sheff and the College, for a building considerably distant 
 from the College campus, meant that the College was to be 
 sacrificed to the University. The fear was a healthy one, 
 but it seems to have been largely unjustified. Nothing worse 
 could happen to Yale than that the College should lose its 
 individuality. It is most fortunate that we have men who 
 feel this strongly. It is not less important, however, that 
 Yale should be more truly a university than she yet is. We 
 have men who see that, too. Here, as often, it is necessary 
 to hold fast to two ideas which often conflict, which some- 
 times seem mutually destructive ; to work out the problem as 
 best may be ; but never to give up either idea, never to sacri- 
 fice one to the other. And this, I think, is what is being done 
 at Yale. 
 
304 POT-POURRI 
 
 To hold fast to the ideal of the College does not mean, 
 nevertheless, that the College is never to change. One for- 
 ward step has just been taken. The days when we gaily 
 chose our electives because of their reputed character as 
 "guts," or because of the convenience of their hours, or 
 because some of our friends were taking them, are gone. 
 The faculty of the College have come to the conclusion that 
 a course in Biblical Literature may profitably be followed 
 by something other than a History of Music ; that a course 
 in Economics is hardly the best preliminary for a course in 
 English Literature. The plan recently adopted, known as 
 the "group system," still leaves sufficient freedom of election, 
 but it provides that for most of his work the student shall 
 follow a definite and well-arranged plan. He may choose the 
 type of course he likes, but he must pursue with some 
 thoroughness the one he chooses. As undergraduates we 
 might have sighed over being no longer able to flit lightly 
 from intellectual flower to intellectual flower; as graduates 
 we cannot but agree that under the new system the College 
 will turn out men more nearly educated than were the ma- 
 jority of men in the past. 
 
 Another change which causes a greater sentimental pang 
 is the passing of the Hutch. Its glory has departed; it is 
 now the abode of sedate and respectable townfolk. For us 
 it will always be associated with joyous memories, but the 
 College is the better for having the Sophomores on the 
 campus. Some day may it come soon ! the Dean's plan 
 of gathering in the Freshmen will also be realized. 
 
 The Dean ! I should have said "the former Dean," but to 
 us Dean Wright will always be "the" Dean. He went by my 
 window a moment ago looking no older than when we used 
 to face him in the little old shack on Elm Street. We were 
 not always able to meet his searching glance, perhaps, but 
 we loved him none the less for that. The new Dean is a great 
 
YALE SINCE NINETEEN-FOUR 305 
 
 man, one of the greatest who has ever come to us, and he has 
 already made a place for himself which could hardly be filled. 
 But it is not the place of Dean Wright. May his shadow 
 never grow less ! 
 
 Thank heaven that so many of the old figures do remain. 
 The undergraduates can still touch their caps to "Ex-Prexy" 
 Dwight, though fewer and fewer can have the privilege of 
 knowing him. "Waterloo" Wheeler may be a little less able 
 to cope with the clanging trolley cars outside his Osborn Hall 
 window, but his lectures are as keen and as brilliant as ever. 
 
 Not so, however, with all. Some of our best men have left 
 us for Princeton, Columbia, Berkeley, and for the land "from 
 which no traveler returns." In their stead a number of new 
 professors have come, Brown, Bumstead, Farrand and Hen- 
 drickson, and a host of new assistant professors and instruc- 
 tors who would interest you as men but not as a catalogue of 
 names. One man has left a vacancy which will not soon be 
 filled, "Billy" Sumner. I hope he is now able to think more 
 kindly than he once could of the Class he so longed to see 
 graduate. Requiescat in pace. 
 
 Many of the changes which seemed impending have not yet 
 arrived. Proms are still held in the Armory. The Stadium 
 exists only in fond imaginations. The female sweep has not 
 entirely succeeded in providing dustless and drearily orderly 
 rooms. Undergraduates still have a few moments left to 
 play. Nor have all the advances been without flaw. Even 
 if the scoffer admits the desirability of Sunday services for 
 the whole University, he may still question whether Woolsey 
 Hall is just the place for them, whether Sousa's Band on 
 Saturday evening provides just the right atmosphere for a 
 religious service on the following morning. 
 
 Nevertheless, the scoffer and the carping critic have less 
 place at Yale than ever. Those of us who are working here 
 are often sadly conscious of our failures, of the changes which 
 
306 POT-POURRI 
 
 seem imperative but which are not made, of changes which 
 have all the appearance of changes for the worse ; but when 
 one looks back over six years, he sees not only great progress 
 made, but still greater progress which is coming. No great 
 changes, no revolutions, but quiet growth. And so long as 
 we continue to get the kind of Freshman which now comes to 
 us, and so long as Yale continues to make of him what she 
 does, we need not hesitate to sing Te Deum for what Yale is 
 and shall be.

ALUMNI UNIVERSITY FUND 
 BY THOMAS D. THACHER 
 
 In describing the establishment, aims and purposes of the 
 Yale Alumni University Fund, the last report of the Univer- 
 sity treasurer says: 
 
 In June, 1890, the Corporation established the "Alumni 
 University Fund" in response to resolutions of the New York 
 Alumni, and at Commencement of that year there was organized 
 an association to be known as "The Alumni University Fund 
 Association/' to be managed by nine directors, alumni of Yale, 
 appointed by the president of the University. 
 
 Everyone who has been a student in any department of the 
 University is invited to join the Association by contributing to 
 the Fund, and any contribution, however small, and whether or 
 not it is continued annually, is sufficient qualification for mem- 
 bership. Annual contributions are, however, especially desired. 
 "The fund is to be applied," to quote from the original announce- 
 ment, "in the discretion of the Corporation, to any uses of the 
 University, but preferably to general University purposes, the 
 benefits of which are shared by all departments, rather than to 
 the uses of any particular department." 
 
 In the work of the Alumni Fund Association each graduating 
 class is now represented by a Class Agent, appointed by the 
 Directors of the Fund. The members of the Board of Directors 
 are appointed, as provided, by the president of the University 
 to serve for three years, the appointments being confirmed by the 
 Corporation. The Board elects its own officers, the treasurer of 
 the University serving as the treasurer of the Fund. Through 
 the Class Agents the Association invites contributions, and par- 
 ticularly annual contributions, to the Fund. Gifts may be made 
 either to the income of the Fund or to principal. In the former 
 case the entire sums collected may, in the discretion of the Direct- 
 ors, be turned over to the University to be used as University 
 income. Gifts to the principal of the Fund, on the other hand, 
 are held in trust by the University treasurer and interest thereon 
 is credited each year to the income of the Association. 
 
 As a matter of practice the Directors of the Fund, who manage 
 it independently of the University authorities although working 
 in cooperation with them, usually vote that a part of the annual 
 receipts for income of the Association be given to the University 
 
308 POT-POURRI 
 
 to be added to University Income for the year, to be used for 
 whatever current expenses the authorities may wish. The bal- 
 ance, together, of course, with any gifts to principal, is added to 
 the principal of the Fund. 
 
 The Alumni Fund, it will be seen then, differs from all other 
 funds of the University in several important respects. It is con- 
 trolled by directors chosen from the graduates instead of by the 
 University authorities alone. Other funds are usually given in 
 one amount at one time and, as a rule, with definite instructions 
 as to the use of the income or principal, or both. The Alumni 
 Fund, on the contrary, is added to every year, and is unrestricted. 
 The principal of the Fund is intended to be a part of the Uni- 
 versity's endowment. The gifts from the income of the Fund to 
 University Income are not confined to specific purposes. The 
 advantage of this to the University is great, for Yale has always 
 been particularly in need of money for general purposes. 
 
 In their discretion the Directors of the Fund may suggest that 
 the gifts from the Fund to University Income in any year be 
 applied for some particular purpose. This last June, for ex- 
 ample, the gift of $49,000 to University Income was accompanied 
 by the recommendation that it be chiefly applied to increasing the 
 salaries of the University's teaching force. 
 
 For the first year of its existence, ending June, 1891, the Asso- 
 ciation reported 385 members and total "cash received into the 
 Fund $11,015.08." Other subscriptions payable later, made the 
 "total assured January 1, 1892, $16,630.08." 
 
 For the year ending June 30, 1910, the number of contributors 
 was 2,823; the total income of the Association $49,155.47, made 
 up of $35,362.49 in gifts, less expenses, and $13,792.98 interest; 
 and the total gifts to principal of the Fund $94,595.01. After 
 appropriating $49,000 for University Income the remaining 
 $155.47 of the Association income with the gifts for principal 
 were added to the Fund, which now stands at $454,403.87; as 
 compared with $359,653.39 a year ago. The principal contri- 
 butions were, as usual, made by reunion classes, as shown by the 
 following list of anniversary gifts:

ALUMNI UNIVERSITY FUND 309 
 
 Since its foundation the Alumni Fund Association has not only 
 built up the Fund but has also given the University in all for 
 use as income $330,763.18. Once the importance of the work is 
 fully appreciated by all the alumni and it is not yet even after 
 twenty years there is little doubt that a majority, instead of a 
 minority, of graduates will be actively interested in the work of 
 the Association. To the alumni it affords an opportunity to help 
 the University by uniting their gifts, and making one large sum 
 out of many small donations. The graduates who contribute to 
 the Fund are not only proving themselves to be generous and 
 enlightened givers in not prescribing the exact uses to which the 
 Fund is to be put, but are also setting an example to other bene- 
 factors to the University. 
 
 I have quoted at such length from this last report of the 
 treasurer of the University in order that each one of the 
 class may have a clear and complete idea of the relation of 
 the Alumni Fund to the University's needs. 
 
 Since graduation, there has been subscribed to this Fund by 
 the members of 1904 $3,242.75. An effort was made last 
 year to raise a special Sexennial Fund, the interest upon 
 which is to be added each year to the class subscription. 
 Carl Adams, Jim Brewster, Ed. Ely and George Munson 
 generously assisted in this work with the result that $1,396 
 was received from sixty men. Subscriptions from 1904, since 
 graduation, compare favorably in amount with the returns 
 from other classes during similar periods. The number of 
 regular subscribers is, however, considerably below the 
 average. The following table shows the number of sub- 
 scribers and the amount subscribed each year since gradua- 
 tion: 
 
 Year Subscribers Amount 
 
 1904-1905 91 $ 557.00 
 
 1905-1906 83 640.00

 1907-1908 30 416.00

 1909-1910 60 1,396.00 
 
 $4,242.75

 The connection between $49,000, which was this year 
 appropriated to the income of the University, and the sub- 
 scription of an individual may seem remote, but if the total 
 subscriptions are looked upon as annual gifts by the Class, 
 the figures appear more substantial. These annual sub- 
 scriptions are essentially class gifts, and are so treated by 
 the University. It has been a source of pleasure and satis- 
 faction that a comparison with other classes has thus far 
 been favorable to 1904. There is, however, a certain element 
 of unfairness manifested by the small number of subscribers, 
 which should not be overlooked. The gift is one for which 
 the Class as a group receives credit. This being so, it is 
 palpably unjust to allow a small fraction of the Class to 
 bear the whole burden. 
 
CLASS GIFT TO THE LIBRARY 
 
 On May 19, 1903, J. F. Byers deposited with the bursar a 
 Junior Promenade surplus of $225, leaving the expenditure 
 of the money to the discretion of Dean Wright. Some years 
 later Dean Wright called into consultation Lawrence Mason, 
 then instructor in English in the Academic Department, and 
 it was decided to devote the gift to the needs of the Library 
 with special reference to the Freshman English and Fresh- 
 man history courses. This decision was based upon the 
 somewhat vague terms of the gift "to serve some useful 
 University purpose" and upon a wish to recognize the 
 number of 1904 men then teaching in these two branches; 
 further, Henry B. Wright, '98, always well known and liked 
 by the Class, was teaching in the history department and 
 gladly undertook the disbursement of half the gift for the 
 acquisition of material useful in the Freshman history course. 
 Accordingly, on May 12, 1908, a cheque for $225 was sent 
 to the University librarian ; and since that date the following 
 purchases have been made, under Henry Wright's direction : 
 
 Baedeker's "Greece," fourth edition, 1909, Karl Baedeker, 
 Leipzig. "Atlas Antiquus," Emil Reich. "The Roman Re- 
 public," W. E. Heitland (3 vols.) . "Provinces of the Roman 
 Empire," T. Mommsen (2 vols.). "What Have the Greeks

 Book of Roman History," D. C. Munro. "A Source Book of 
 Greek History," F. M. Fling. "Ancient History," P. Van 
 N. Myers (revised edition). "Ancient History," J. Walther ; 
 being Part I. of Ulstein's "Geschichte des Altertums"; with 
 numerous illustrations hitherto inaccessible; December, 1909. 
 One lay-figure (four feet six inches) with complete sets of 
 Roman and Greek garments (peplos, chiton, chlamys, tunic, 
 toga, sogum and himation), to illustrate ancient dress. 
 Hiilsen's large wall map of the city of Rome. One model 
 
312 POT-POURRI 
 
 (eighteen by thirty- two inches) of a Roman house (with 
 removable roof). One model (fourteen by sixty inches) of 
 a Roman book or volumen (with removable red cover or 
 psenula). MacCoun's historical geography charts of Europe, 
 "Ancient and Classical Period, 2800 B. C.-475 A. D.," pub- 
 lished by Silver, Burdett & Company, New York City. 
 
 In the Freshman English course the following purchases 
 have been made, under the direction of L. Mason :

 expended in equal shares by the two departments, the two 
 agents, Henry Wright and L. Mason, making good the small 
 sum in excess of $225 which the purchases called for. Each 
 volume bears the bookplate of the University Library, with 
 the following inscription: "Gift of the Class of 1904." Most 
 of the books and articles in the history list above were on 
 exhibition in the Old Library during Commencement week, 
 1910 ; and all the purchases, both historical and English, may 
 be viewed at any time in use in the new Linonian and Brothers 
 reading room, or on the shelves of the University Library, or 
 in the English and history classrooms in Lampson, Osborn 
 and Phelps Halls. The record of the expenditures may be 
 inspected in the librarian's office. 
 
 This method of disposing of surplus class funds has been 
 warmly commended by many officers of the University, and 
 has been held up in the Alumni Weekly as a model for imita- 
 tion by other classes.

 BEING OCCASIONAL, CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE YALE ALUMNI

 BY LAWRENCE MASON 
 
 THE STAG'S PROM 
 A FABLE OF A CONVERTED COLLEGE CYNIC 
 
 "And I find more bitter than death the Woman, whose 
 heart is snares and nets and her hands as bands: whoso 
 pleaseth God shall escape from her; but the fool shall be 
 taken by her." Ecclesiastes 7: 26. 
 
 To the unattached male known as the "Stag," the Prom 
 is the vanity of vanities and the "fusser" the fool of fools. 
 For the latter is so worried about tickets, carriages, meals, 
 teas, flowers, wraps, and plans of all sorts that his very efforts 
 to provide a good time effectually prevent him from either 
 enjoying himself or entertaining his Lady, except with the 
 help of other men a vicarious kind of enjoyment which does 
 not strongly appeal to him. The poor, misguided creature 
 sacrifices his scholarship standing, all his extra cuts, his 
 whole pleasure in the affair, and most of his patrimony; in 
 fact, he is so reluctant to call upon parental shekels to the 
 extent of keeping pace with wealthier friends that he decides 
 to retrench in his cash expenditures by running up bills ! 
 It is pitiful to see a strong man so shorn of his strength, 
 and so infatuated that he enters into the affair deliberately 
 (take his watch, for instance: there's always a woman in the 
 case) ; in the end he must come out of it feeling that the game 
 is not worth the scandal and that all is indeed vanity and 
 vexation of spirit. And in the last place, the Lady her- 
 self usually contributes to her host's lack of enjoyment by 
 
DIVERSIONS OF A 1904 FACULTY MEMBER 315 
 
 acidulated comparisons between her own dance-card, flowers, 
 Prom-box, or Concert-seats and those of more fortunate 
 charmers ; or, at least, she will cut his dances and slight him 
 in general, since she is sure of him, in favor of new worlds to 
 conquer. Then she writes in her bread-and-butter letter, 
 "You're a heavenly host !" Yes ; but with the heavenly hosts, 
 we are told, there is neither marrying nor giving in mar- 
 riage; and she frequently concludes with a postscript an- 
 nouncing her engagement to someone else! The Stag 
 loquitur: "What is woman? A word. What is in that word 
 woman ? what is that woman ? Hot air. A trim reckoning ! 
 Who hath her? He that invited a guest. Doth he see her? 
 No. Doth he dance with her? No. She's invisible, then? 
 Yea, to her host. But will she flirt with the Stag? Yea, 
 verily. Why so? Distraction demands it. Therefore I'll 
 none of her. Woman is a mere figure of speech : and so ends 
 my catechism." 
 
 No, the free-lance, the soldier of fortune, the Stag, heart- 
 whole and fancy-free, with nothing to lose and everything to 
 gain, is the only role for a wise man. He has all of the fun 
 and none of the bother or expense. He will be invited to 
 teas and dinners ; he will be summoned to sit in choice boxes 
 at the Concert and the Prom; from all the belles he may 
 select the few to be favored with his attentions, and steal 
 dances wheresoever he may desire; and, to the impression- 
 able fair sex, he will appear to be the fascinating woman- 
 hater, the gay young buck, the macaroni, heart-breaker, and 
 catch of the season : what a rosy vision ! And then, when 
 he chooses, he can be alone and seek the relief of places and 
 pleasures "for men only," without the haunting fear that he 
 has allowed a moment to pass without some entertainment 
 planned for his never-satisfied guest. He may even find time 
 to ponder dispassionately, instead of merely cursing, that 
 inscrutable decree of the Powers That Be in accordance with 
 
316 POT-POURRI 
 
 which the afternoons and evenings of three days are officially 
 given up to festivities, while recitations are held through the 
 day. 
 
 Musing thus, the Stag approaches his dormitory entry; 
 as he passes through the hall and up the first flight, a door 
 opens below and he hears a feminine chorus "Oh, what a 
 sweetly pretty window seat!" "And that fireplace! isn't 
 it just a dear?" "Billy, did you get that love of a silver cup 
 for a football prize?" "No," (in deeper tones) "that's my 
 shaving mug." .... "Ah !" sneers the Stag, " 'the crackling 
 of thorns under a pot.' Although that may be all right for 
 the 'idyl rich,' I prefer the 'life simple,' poor but honest!" 
 So he goes up to his room, deeply grateful for possessing one 
 sanctuary inviolate, but finds to his utter disgust that his 
 roommate is giving a tea there (and incidentally is wearing 
 the Stag's frock coat). "The eternal feminine," mutters he, 
 savagely ; "N. B., for 'eternal' read 'infernal' !" and he slams 
 the door on a torrent of girlish giggles and gush. Dis- 
 comfited, the irate Stag now strides along to Mory's, only 
 to find it like a convention of the W. C. T. U. Filled with 
 despair and forebodings of approaching madness, he finally 
 staggers blindly to a bench on the Green, where he can relieve 
 his surcharged feelings by swearing himself faint. Some 
 hours later, still cursing feebly, he timidly sneaks into his 
 room in order to dress for the Concert and German. 
 "Oh, why did God create this fair defect of nature?" he 
 murmurs brokenly; "but to-night I'll show 'em how to fuss, 
 just to get even!" 
 
 Singularly enough, however, at the Concert he is not 
 invited to a box and cannot break through the serried ranks 
 of Glee Club men, chaperons, and hosts ; so he is forced to 
 join the long lines of those who only stand and "rubber" : 
 
 " Like outcast spirits who wait 
 And see through heaven's gate 
 Angels within it." 
 
DIVERSIONS OF A 1904 FACULTY MEMBER 317 
 
 This "Waiting-at-the-Church" business does not commend 
 itself to him ; but he solaces himself with the motto, "Shall I, 
 wasting in despair, die because a woman's fair?" and presses 
 on to the German. Here he meets with unexpected reverses : 
 his promised dances are cut, his eclecticism is hampered by a 
 very limited acquaintance, he is mistaken for a waiter, gets 
 no supper, and leaves early in the game. Bitterly he resolves 
 that ZmcAr-and-wing is the dance for the Stag, while doe-see- 
 doe is only for the more matrimonially inclined. Sic transit 
 gloria Monday. 
 
 Tuesday is the same thing, only worse. 
 
 " O Solitude, where are the charms 
 That sages have seen in thy face ?" 
 
 Recitations flunked in the morning combine with roommate's 
 continued use of the frock coat and silk hat (mem.: never 
 room with man who wears same sized clothes) to make the 
 merriment of the day not absolutely hysterical. Can it be 
 possible that he is suffering from the decrees of Poetic 
 Justice? that he is at fault for trying to get something for 
 nothing? that all this disappointment is but a fitting 
 graftermath? Perish the thought! Grimly he girds him- 
 self for his last contest against the slings and arrows of out- 
 rageous fortune, and prognathously proceeds to the Armory. 
 Again his dances are cut; again, contravening all his 
 theories, the hosts look inanely happy with their guests. 
 Since even the Argus-eyed chaperons are too busy (playing 
 bridge) to talk to him, he stands idly looking on until he 
 fancies that he is taking root and that everyone is noticing 
 his forsaken estate and saying: 
 
 " A wretched thing forlorn, 
 It stands erect ; and like a stone 
 With lichens is it overgrown." 
 
 Then, with frenzied mien, he seizes his hat and coat and 
 frantically rushes away to the University Club, to try to 
 
318 POT-POURRI 
 
 " Forget that he remembers, 
 And dream that he forgets." 
 
 .... So economy is not an unmixed blessing, after all ; what 
 he saves in one direction he takes out in others ; but if money 
 
 weren't so tight, he wouldn't be, either Perhaps next 
 
 year, if there are a few dollars outside of the collections of 
 numismatists, this very Stag may purchase a ticket to 
 Arcady himself ! 
 
 "For who knoweth what is good for a man in this life, all 
 the days of his vain life which he spendeth as a shadow?" 
 Ecclesiastes 6: 12. 
 
 "It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth" 
 Lamentations 3: 87. 
 
 VACATION MUSINGS 
 
 Some they are flunked, and some they are suspended: 
 Most are on vacation; but all are departed 
 All, all are gone, the young, familiar faces. 
 
 Pedagogically speaking, New Haven is again playing the 
 role of the "Deserted Village." The sons of Eli are flown 
 not "with insolence and wine," as J. Milton proleptically 
 asserted, but with speed and unanimity by rail, automobile, 
 trolley, or even "that swift steamer, Richard Peck" to the 
 four corners of the earth: or, as the poet hath it, "to Lew 
 Field's and Pastor's new." 
 
 But a few brief hours since, and the old college town was 
 alive with noisy youths and noisier neckwear : but now, where 
 are the socks of yesterday? Staid Seniors are now taking 
 truant trips to the tropics (valetudinously necessary as 
 reported to the Dean), or looking for jobs as office boys, 
 against the fall of the parachute next July; jejune Juniors 
 
DIVERSIONS OF A 1904 FACULTY MEMBER 319 
 
 are brushing up their waltzing or making their peace with 
 the ten or twelve whom they didn't ask to the Prom. ; self- 
 satisfied Sophomores are trying to show that they are not 
 Freshmen, and being ejected from theaters or cafes; and 
 frabjous Freshmen are swaggering about, exhibiting their 
 near- Yale symmetricals and upholstered shoulders to admir- 
 ing feminine relatives. So the evil that men do hies after 
 them ; the good is oft interred in the Dean's office. 
 
 And yet, perhaps, after all, these undergraduates are not 
 quite so black as they are painted; from callow to callous, 
 from inept to inert, all varieties probably would be more 
 fairly judged from mid-holiday perspective than from the 
 depths of accumulated blue examination books, as at this 
 present writing. For what would New Haven be without 
 them? Ans. : a mere flag station, indicated on none but the 
 largest maps. No, they are at worst a necessary evil. 
 What though the Library be open now, while the Gymnasium 
 is closed like an active brain with a paralyzed body? We 
 feel like saying to the absent undergraduates, in the words of 
 the "Personal" advertisement : "Come back, and all will be 
 forgiven." For, seriously, this frightful ignorance of all 
 our pet examination points is not a personal reflection upon 
 ourselves and our teaching, but simply a proof of the fact 
 that what bulks to us instructors, in our concentration and 
 specialized enthusiasm, as the summum bonum of this sublun- 
 ary existence, bulks to the undergraduate as but one of 
 half a dozen more or less interesting studies which all 
 together make up but one single side among some half-dozen 
 equally valuable sides of college life. This may seem hetero- 
 dox, but it is surely true ; and it is not altogether unreason- 
 able, either. Yet this heresy should be barely sibilated, in 
 minutest of type, lest it be wrenched from its context and con- 
 strued as a justification for utter indolence; whereas it is 
 simply a discussion of comparative standpoints. The Aca- 
 
320 POT-POURRI 
 
 demic Department is not a technical or professional school 
 where a man is trying to learn his bread-winning lifework, 
 but an institution which aims to give a liberal education by 
 the influence of atmosphere and association as well as by that 
 of the classroom; otherwise the correspondence school or 
 private tutor were as good as the college or university. So 
 let us take the right viewpoint and square our expectations 
 with the facts. Let not the instructor always expect to find 
 in his students the feverish interest of men who are preparing 
 to teach this very subject, where he will usually find only the 
 general interest of men to whom the mere acquisition of 
 definite facts is quite unnecessary for the enjoyable and suc- 
 cessful conduct of life men to whom, in other words, the 
 spirit is more than the letter. And how foolish are those of 
 us who regard the undergraduate simply as so many subjects 
 for operation, as numbered specimens ! And how true is the 
 converse, also : the folly of those undergraduates who regard 
 their instructors simply as so many dehumanized abstract 
 forces, as bloodless things of cuts and marks. Fortunately 
 the day of these extremes is over ; but the day of the golden 
 mean is not yet, and everyone should watch and work for 
 any influence that may make for saner relations between the 
 two bodies. Certain it is that an ideal extra-curriculum 
 intercourse founded on mutual respect and appreciation 
 would benefit the instructor in no less a degree than the 
 instructee, and that faculty member is wisest whose practice 
 most nearly approximates this ideal. 
 
 " But they are in their homes, and oh 
 The difference to me !" 
 
 Why talk "shop" in vacation time? Let us be free of 
 pupils for a while, as New Haven is, and note the change 
 which has come o'er the spirit of our dream. There has been 
 a great exodus of the countless Levites, Simeonites, parasites, 
 and other children of Israel who prey upon the student body. 
 
DIVERSIONS OF A 1904 FACULTY MEMBER 321 
 
 A single "ol' clo's" man, crushed by a vast despondency, 
 stands at Osborn Hall corner like the fossil relic of a bygone 
 age. "Ah, what can ail thee, wretched wight, Alone and 
 palely loitering?" The bird has vanished from the coop, 
 and no coins ring. Chase's and Gowdy's are (haber) dashed 
 with gloom, while cobwebs obscure the entrance to the Hype- 
 rion. Not a cab is heard, not a funeral hack. Everywhere 
 there is a deathly torpor, like a "blue" Sunday in Phila- 
 delphia or the tranced garden of the Sleeping Princess in 
 the fairy tale; or possibly all things have been turned to 
 stone by some Medusa's Gorgon-head (query : Osborn Hall?). 
 But, alas, the octopus which systematically feeds on our 
 undergraduate body is merely scotch'd, not kill'd ; the vam- 
 pire hotels (or what their owners occasionally, in a burst of 
 enthusiasm or in an advertisement, refer to as "hotels") are 
 preparing to exact their annual dole of blood at Prom time, 
 while violets of solid gold (judging by the price) are already 
 arriving. There is no more conclusive proof of American 
 democracy than this prevalence among tradespeople of the 
 Order of the Golden Fleece. 
 
 However, in this wilderness there are two oases two 
 redeeming features in this solitude : the possibility of saunter- 
 ing into Mory's without being regarded as an intruder or a 
 spy, and the ceaseless activity of the Graduates Club. The 
 latter, indeed, is a perennial delight, whether one dines at the 
 "Big Table," where Gridiron Club members with vitriolic wit 
 continually butcher one another to make a Roman holiday, or 
 whether one joins the inner circle in the lounging room where 
 everything from international policy to the latest pamphlet 
 receives its proper meed of damning or faint praise. Despite 
 repeated first-of-the-month accounts, a good club is rather to 
 be chosen than much fine gold. 
 
 Meanwhile, the Campus now doth, like a garment, wear 
 the silence of the morning. Here is that "little town, by 
 
322 POT-POURRI 
 
 river or seashore, all emptied of its folk, this pious morn." 
 Only the Chapel chimes, a subdued feeling of futility distin- 
 guishable in their tones, break the charmed stillness. The 
 dormitories stretch away, with blank windows staring in 
 vacant desolation or curtains drawn down in heavy-lidded 
 stupor "bare ruin'd choirs where late the sweet birds sang." 
 One so misses the life and stir of buoyant young manhood 
 that a kind of horror might possess one, as in the presence of 
 death, were it not for the peacefulness and beauty of it and 
 the thronging memories that haunt each spot, wherever one 
 turns. There are Farnam and Lawrance, where so-and-so 
 roomed; Phelps, a Tower of Babel in recitation hours, a 
 monument now ; Welch, where one lived, thought, spake, and 
 understood as a happy, care-free child, once upon a time; 
 fine, new Old South; Osborn, 
 
 " Where, in his noisy mansion, skill'd to rule 
 The village master taught his little school; 
 And still we gazed, and still the wonder grew 
 That one small head could carry all he knew:" 
 
 [wonder whether the younger generations will ever feel that 
 way towards us !] ; Vanderbilt, where one formerly spent 
 halcyon days with other Lotus-eaters "like gods together, 
 careless of mankind" ; two modern or pseudo Libraries ; one 
 real Library ; "the sculptured dead," Wolsey and "Hanc 
 Statuam" nor does one fail "To think how they may ache 
 in icy hoods and mail" ; Dwight ; Alumni ; Durf ee, renewed in 
 youth and cleanliness ; and so back again at last, after com- 
 pleting the circuit, to the Fence, symbol of the goodliest 
 fellowship whereof this world holds record, of friendship that 
 shall master time, of debonair high-hearted yoi de vivre with 
 the elect and salt of this earth, of days gone but never to be 
 forgotten. 
 
 " How happy he who crowns, in shades like these, 
 A Term of labor with a month of ease ! !'

 The reverie is broken by the approach of a group of sight- 
 seers of neuter or indeterminate gender, number, and case. 
 In a few days this hallowed ground will be desecrated, and 
 the rude swain will tread it daily with his clouted shoon ; we 
 shall witness the enacting of our quarterly drama, "The 
 Return of the Native." Tuesday "calm and deep peace on 
 this high wold" : Wednesday work, "and the need of a world 
 of men for me" ; "Death and Transfiguration," as Strauss 
 hath it. 
 
 On Grub St., when the sun was low, 
 All silent lay th' untrodden snow. 
 
 But Grub St. saw another fate, 
 
 When the clock stood at ten past eight! 
 
 Ah, well, let them come; let the wilderness blossom with 
 Rosenberg ; let the cloistered stillness of our nights be given 
 up again to close-but-not-quite harmony. After all, in the 
 long run, one may prefer vocation to vacation ! 
 
 ON HEARING RETURNS FROM THE PRINCETON 
 GAME BY SPECIAL WIRE 
 
 SCENE: Any club where the members assemble to watch a 
 championship football game played on a blackboard. 
 
 A decent respect for the opinions of mankind requires me 
 to set forth the reason which impels me to this revelation. 
 It is simply this : fearing that my weakened heart and brain 
 may speedily call me to another and better world, where the 
 ticker ceases ticking and from whose bourne there are no 
 returns, I wish my experience to be of service to my fellow 
 men, to the possible saving of many valuable lives. 
 
 " O bid me go into a new-made grave 
 And hide me with a dead man in his shroud, 
 And I will do it without fear or doubt " : 
 
324 POT-POURRI 
 
 but listen to returns over a ticker? Never again! And so 
 I beg to offer this re-Morse code as a possible antidote for 
 the other kind. 
 
 In a mood of inspired lyric exaltation, which the nurse calls 
 delirium, I had first intended to give my sad story to the 
 world in dithyrambic poetic form ; but, upon the application 
 of a little cracked ice to my fevered brow by my physician, 
 I was soon persuaded of the futility of this project. And 
 besides, my cephalic district is still tickled by the antic tricks 
 and electric ticks of this particular ticker, which trickle 
 thickly through Well, I merely meant to say that the 
 poetry might be a trifle inarticulate or eccentric, if the 
 hypermetric distich ictus no, no, no! Lunatic- tick- tick 
 that way lies madness ! Here is the history of my encounter 
 with the infernal machine, in plain prose : 
 
 First, let me conjure up my shattered recollections of the 
 scene that witnessed my undoing. In the main hall of a 
 popular club we sit, two or three hundred strong, and fill the 
 air with blue smoke and eager j argon while in a small gallery 
 across one end of the room the telegraph operator and the 
 announcer are bending over the fiendish instrument, flanked 
 by a large diagram of the field set up vertically on edge so 
 that we can follow the progress of the ball and locate its 
 position as each despatch arrives. We are all noisily ex- 
 changing greetings, jests, and bets, when suddenly the 
 announcer waves a frantic signal for silence and in the 
 instant hush we hear the Voice of Destiny begin its cryptic 
 tactics or tick-tacks. We stare at each other with a wild sur- 
 mise : what will be the first message on this historic occasion ? 
 Immediately the announcer reads off the first news about the 
 thrilling opening of the fray : "Weather elegant. A pretty 
 girl in blue suit and 1914 arm band has just come in. The 
 spectators are numerous." We burst into ironical cheers, 
 catcalls, and whistles. Tick-tick-tick! "The Princeton 
 
DIVERSIONS OF A 1904 FACULTY MEMBER 325 
 
 team runs on the field. Grandstands in an uproar." We 
 shout excitedly. Tick: tick-tick: tick. . . . "Mistake. Not 
 the Princeton team. Only the officials. The drop-the- 
 handkerchief expert, three timekeepers, three linesmen, two 
 measurers, an umpire, a referee, a field judge, a grand jury, 
 a committee on interpreting the rules, and three catalogue 
 specialists to look up the rules." We subside. 
 
 "Yale wins the toss and kicks off," thunders the announcer. 
 We lean forward expectantly. No news. Long pause. 
 Someone asks about the penalty for a lost ball ; another sug- 
 gests advertising for it or notifying the police ; a third wants 
 to know whether the ball is dirigible, under the new rules. 
 
 Tick-tick : tick .... "Second down, six to gain Punt is 
 
 blocked." "Whose ball and where is it?" we bellow. No 
 reply: we froth in impotent frenzy. Long pause. "Yale 
 right end intercepts forward pass and starts down field." 
 We shout. "Shakes off tackier after tackier." We roar. 
 "Crosses goal line." We burst into howls of triumph. 
 "Score: Princeton 2, Yale 0." We collapse. 
 
 "Princeton kicks off to Yale's 20-yard line. Howe catches 
 and by brilliant run behind fine interference returns the ball 
 to Yale's 15-yard line." Several persons in the audience 
 become violent at this point and are carried out, struggling. 
 "Princeton punts out of danger." We fan ourselves, dazed 
 and speechless. "On fake kick formation, Morris loses 
 twenty yards. Time is called at end of first quarter." We 
 heave sighs of relief, giving thanks for the respite, and hasten 
 to apply the restoratives purveyed by white-aproned attend- 
 ants. I feel the new gray hairs tingle over my throbbing 
 temples. 
 
 "Teams line up for opening of second quarter on Prince- 
 ton's 42-yard line. No substitutions except that Wright- 
 ington goes in for Dashiell at dropping-the-handkerchief. 
 .... Daly has the ball, and Howe makes forward pass. 
 
326 POT-POURRI 
 
 Seven officials blow their horns, like chorus in Gotterdaem- 
 merung. Conference. Debate. Time out." We cool off. 
 "Princeton given the ball on Yale's 1-yard line." We heat 
 up. "Princeton gains six yards outside of tackle." Groans ; 
 flags at half mast. "Princeton makes it first down on an end 
 run, and gains seven yards through center on next play." As 
 this puts them sixteen yards inside of Yale's goal line, the 
 man sitting next to me pins his visiting card to the lapel of 
 his coat and keels over in a fit. But the Voice of Doom pro- 
 ceeds. "Princeton gaining on every play. Princeton 
 fumbles, but gains two more in same place. Pendleton drops 
 back to try for field goal. Hart blocks the kick but is 
 tackled and thrown out of bounds by Ballou. Daly gains 
 eight yards on fake run. Princeton penalized two yards for 
 use of wrists. Field gains five yards outside of umpire. Ball 
 is now on Princeton's 73-yard line. Daly drops back for try 
 at goal from placement. Fails, ball going into grandstand. 
 Princeton kicks out from 25-yard line, Howe carrying the 
 ball back on a long run through broken field. Yale penalized 
 nine yards for on-side play." .... In the gallery the assist- 
 ant, whose business it is to indicate the position of the ball 
 on the diagram of the field, has long since given up the 
 unequal contest and has ceased making any attempt to 
 unravel the grisly mystery of these despatches. The tele- 
 graph boy, 
 
 " who now doth crazy go, 
 Laughs long and loud; and all the while 
 His eyes went to and fro." 
 
 "Yale recovers ball on fumble and immediately kicks. No 
 gain. Field gets a yard through end. Princeton penalized 
 four yards for stepping on handkerchief. Daly tries center. 
 Princeton fails to make first down by an inch. Morris punts 
 as time is called at end of third quarter. Score, Harvard 8, 
 Dartmouth 3." 
 
 Brainstorms flaring lights .crashing worlds darkness.
