Preface.
N launching another PANDORA, with its rich and varied freight, upon the sea of popular favor, it
has been the aim of the Editors and Publishers to provide for the tastes of the widest circle of
intelligent readers.
We are inclined to think that both the writers of books and the readers of them are generally
not a little unreasonable in their expectations.
The one class seems to fancy that every reader must approve whatever they produce, and the other to
imagine that writers should be criticised for not satisfying the varied and fastidious tastes of the multitude.
We think that on the one hand no person is born with the right of controlling the opinions of all the
rest. So, on the other, the world has no title to demand that the whole care and time of a man be spent for
its entertainment. Therefore, I cannot but believe that readers and writers are under equal obligations for as
much fame as each affords the other.
Everyone acknowledges that it would be a wild notion to expect perfection in any one thing, and relying upon this consoling thought, the editors present this volume to the reading public. From innumerable
contributions of genius and talent, we have carefully selected the contents of this book. It, in itself, tells you
of the happenings of the preceding year, gives you a bird's-eye view of the student body in their many associations, setting forth the genius of thought and expression, the delicate play of fancy and lofty ideas of
patriotism to our Alma Mater, and the delicious sallies of wit and humor, that will some day give tone to the
society of our country as in days gone by.
We are especially indebted to Mr. Eugene Murphey, of Augusta, for his inestimable aid, so freely
given us in the production of this volume; and are also under many obligations to Miss Jennie Smith, of
Athens, for valuable assistance. From the best talent in this year's contributions we have gleaned this
Annual, and we sincerely trust that it may be worthy a welcome.

Dedication,
fl Pandora's box of good things and bad,
Of tnings that are gay and things that are sad,
Hs a sign of respect and of greatest esteem
With the fond hope that sorne one rr,ay deem
The offering worthy, We lay at the feet
Of our State's legislature, and its menders We greet,
With the hope that some time in the dim. Future great,
They will aid education in the South's Empire State
By something more helpful than bombastic speech,
For bombast the mind of the youth does not teach.
The offering is small but the feeling is true,
The great State of Georgia may at one time rue
The sad, false economy of her poor legislature,
Which rnay sometimes give them a nomenclature.

E'S not at all "gay," but rather passe,
And his smile and his bows condescending,
The raw Freshman looks, with awe at his books,
Though his ignorance is really heartrending.
II.
He tries to go out to each social "rout,"
And wishes to seem "awful swell,"
But his tailor bill's due and Blumy's bill, too,
And his creditors all give him well.
III.
In the beautiful spring he "don't do a thing"
But parade all around in fine raiment;
Though he looks quite a "dear," you can't help but hear
His long-forgot landlord's sad lament.
IV.
He sleeps all through class and yet hopes to pass
Oh! the strength of his strong legal cheek
But I fear that in June, he'll sing a sad tune,
And begin for his sheepskin to seek.

" Cato's voice was ne'er employed
To clear the guilty and to varnish crime."
Thus good begins in the hearts of the lawyers who, for the most
part, are fond of assuring their friends and acquaintances that witnesses lie, lawyers never. However this may be, it is not the function
of the present sketch to disclose. But as the Class of Ninety-Six is
different in many respects from preceding ones; the delvers in old
English and Roman law maxims and fosterers of one of the most elevating and just professions invite more than casual attention. In
consigning these differences to the dignified pages of a Class history,
bombastic aspirations are transcended, and the sincere wish that the
present successes of this branch of the University are but the avant
coureur of its future, and not merely the ne plus ultra of the past, is
thereby humbly expressed.
« « « Retrospect. « « «
"A statue lies hid in a block of marble; and the art of statuary only clears away the superflous matter
and removes the rubbish." So it is with the art of statuary, and so it is with the science of law, and to the
chiseling of this fair arm of the University, which has pointed out the intricacies and cleared away the cobwebs
for many of Georgia's ablest jurists in their legal infancy, the same principle has been applied. Care and
patience and the determined yet erudite touch of the sculptor's mallet has bestowed upon it a shroud of
dignity, that commands respect, secures influence and prestige all of which conscientious effort has attained
and accomplishment has bequeathed to the Class of Ninety-Six.
,
Steady advancement and slow but indisputable conglutination of the elements of success, fettered by
financial circumstances, have marked its history, while through the efficient aid of retrospection, we are
enabled to see along the line, the good qualities enduring, where the evil have been crushed out and the
prognosis of the acme, the Class of Ninety-Five.
21
1
This class passed from the demure old Ivy building, carrying with them the impress of a distinct epoch
that of advancement. Another summer's dust settled upon the lawyer's sanctum sanctorum to mark
another year and cherish the memories of '95. Everything was joyous and resplendent, presaging the
climax of '96.
«««Cbe Present. «
Many events have transpired that might, with strict propriety, be embodied in this pseudonymous
history of the Law Class, but with an ordinary appreciation of the extent of human endurance, we shall confine
ourselves to the observation of a few of the radicalities.
It is worthy of note that the "Empire State," inculcating the excellent motto Excelsior, has thereby lost
some of her sons. One of them, amending Horace Greeley's exhortation to read "Go South, etc.," came South,
and still clinging to his native motto "higher," found himself very soon thereafter at the University of Georgia, a student of law. Every clime has paid its tribute and bowed before undoubted efficiency. From the
niveous hills of the north and the piping plains of the southwest; from the land of the lasso, mustang and
"puncher,"' and the flats of the Peninsula State; from the home of the Montezumas and Malinche, of the
manga and scrape, from all these our numbers have come, while to old Georgia remains the honor of swelling
the ranks to that distinguished proportion, which by demonstrating the cardinal object of its existence, i. e.,
success, bestows unprecedented credit on the Eaw Department.
The corn patch and stenographer's desk are deprived of wonted patronizers. Agrestic habits and tastes
stride hand in hand with the urban element, towards the common goal. Singleness of ambition and mutuality of woes and blessings cementing the tender bonds of good-will, among the "gentlemen of the long
robe," stamped every official act of the Class of Ninety-Six with the unmistakable badge of blandness
and unity.
This admirable spirit became one absorbing passion and being evinced on every occasion and under varying circumstances: for example, the stout and stormy career of the Moot Parliament, where having entered
into the entanglements and depths of parliamentary law with a zeal worthy of more inspired fanatics, the
lawyers soon found it prosaic, and during the flippant discussion of a motion to adjourn to a definite time,
the "fiddle and de bo" gave out, the former charm fell flat, and they adjourned in a summary manner.
22
Two have severed this happy balsamic bond, one to enter a different sphere, and the other to pursue his
chosen duties in a different portion of this wide, wide world. The latter, a devotee of the manly game,
graced the University gridiron, accomplishing the difficult task of "making the team," and followed its fortunes during the entire season.
The first of commendable borihommie, remembering a couplet universally known and remembered, i. e.,
"There is a tide in the affairs of men
Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune,"
grasped the opportunity of advancing himself in the great whirl of business life and shed the legal crust
that had begun to overspread his blithesome features, bidding Blackstone a fond adieu.
Thus time has voyaged its rosy way, filled for the nonce with hope and again with despair, while the ever
riding cavalier, the Present, with his keenest of sabres, stern reality, cuts away the weaklings of our speculative minds. To the lawyer, in his capacity of student of law, this cavalier of checkered history is the sculptor of a laudable ambition as he traces on the adamantine corner-stone of his legal knowledge, Butler's words,
"With books and (money) placed for show
Like nest-eggs to make clients lay,
And for his false opinion pay."

Ninety-Six
Class Poem,
CLASS '96.
B
)YS, its forever over, our preparation season!
Our studies in the sciences of logic and of
reason,
Our dabblings in physics, in Latin, French
and Greek,
The training of our minds to act, and of our tongues
to speak.
We have frolicked on the campus for four long happy
years,
Have grieved the honored faculty by ever cutting
.
prayers;
Have stolen spoons, have Indians burnt, and other
mischief done,
But now, alas! its over, our real life work's begun.
A science as old as antiquity, or the pyramids of the
Nile,
And yet as new as the present is, changing all the
while,
A science covered by Demosthenes and other old
scholars of Greece,
Developed by Diogenes with his tub and life of peace.
And yet withal as perishable as frost in a summer's
sun,
Quite as far from perfection now as when 'twas first
begun.
For this immortal science 'tis impossible to teach,
And yet the guide, Experience, brings it almost in
our reach.
And yet our actual life-work is a season of study, too:
A science begun by all of us and mastered by but few.
Biology, well-known to us, the science of life we call,
Its skeletons and microscopes upon our spirits pall.
But now another BIOS AOY05 presents itself to view,
And not a science of life alone, a science of living, too.
The science of living happily, living busily and well,
The making of a heaven on earth and not of earth a
hell.
One's knowledge of living successfully must perish
at one's death;
To explain one's views to others is a wasting of one's
breath.
And yet, perhaps, in a few simple words the object of
life is given
The object of our life on earth before our home in
heaven,
27
The enjoyment of life ourselves, adding to joys of
others;
The making of friends from strangers, converting of
friends to brothers;
The smoothing of the road before companions' weary
feet;
The living of a joyful life helpful, pure and sweet.
And as we grasp each other's hand to say a long farewell,
No more to hear the hast'ning sound of the dear old
chapel bell;
No more receptions to attend, to give the yell no
more ;
No more to hear our "Charby" say, "won't you please
shut the door?"
No more to smile at years old jokes, whether we wish
it or not,
Cuts, politics and holidays never again to plot.
Let us never forget each other--of dear old Ninety-six
With all its college spirit, its frolics and its
tricks.
Let us never forget the lessons learned by weeks and
months of toil,
Nor our good Athenian friends, when far from native
soil.
Let us remember our Lucy Cobb girls, their smiles
and bows and all,
In the spring they loved but us alone some other in
the fall.
And best of all, let us never forget, in years of toil
and strife,
Some of the lives seen by us in our years of college
life.
Lives of men thrown with us, who have mastered the
science well
The making of a heaven on earth and not of earth a
hell.

fiistory of ninety-Six.
"Armd virumqiie cano" says Virgil in his immortal epic in which
he relates the story of the adventures of the valiant Aeneas leading
up to the foundation of Rome. So, too, could it be said of NinetySix, when relating the history of her varied experiences as she
seeks to lay the foundation of her knowledge- her Rome.
Conscious of his inability to do justice to such an inspiring
theme, the historian with reluctance takes up his pen to tell of her
history -so brilliant in the past, and with a future so bright.
In the fall of 1892 thirty-five Freshmen (as they were called)
assembled together on the historic old campus of the State University and formed the nucleus of the Class of Ninety-Six.
It was the beginning of an eventful career. Even the most careless observers predicted that a bright
future la}~ before us.
In our Sophomore and Junior years a number of recruits, brave and true, fell in line with us in our
struggle for knowledge.
From time to time some of our brightest members have been compelled to break ranks. Some have
been called forth into the busy world to enter upon the active duties of life ; some have fallen bravely fighting,
and some have given up in despair, while several of our number, having already gained so much knowledge
with Ninety-Six, are now disciples of Blackstone. The face of one of our brightest and most beloved members shall be seen on earth no more. In his Junior year, in the bloom of youth, his spirit was wafted from
earth to that "undiscovered country from whose bourn no traveler returns."
Ninety-Six now numbers thirty-two faithful, hard-working students. Her career has been a glorious one,
and great have been her achievements. In the recitation room the boys of Ninety-Six have proved themselves
the peers of any of their predecessors.
I5y their brilliant intellects and studious habits they have mastered the most difficult literary and
scientific problems of the day, while more than one of them has succeeded in solving that most difficult
mathematical problem that one and one make one.
In the halls of the literary societies, ever since they were Freshmen, their eloquent voices and logical
arguments have been heard, tearing to pieces and throwing to the winds the arguments of all others.
In athletics Ninety-Six has a record of which any class might well feel proud to boast. Although we did
not succeed in bearing off the pennant in our Freshman year, since then never have we been defeated on the
diamond or gridiron, but our colors have waved triumphant in every conflict. On Field Days Ninety-Six has
always carried off more than her share of the honors.
In 1892 there were no inter-collegiate games, owing to a ruling of the trustees. The following year, however, these restrictions were removed. This year Ninety-Six furnished four men to the 'Varsity football
team. The next year she was called upon to furnish four men to the football team and four to the baseball
team, and for three years she has furnished the 'Varsity pitcher. On the football team of last season were to
be found three Seniors, one of them the captain himself, to whom much praise is due for the record of the team.
Ninety-Six has always been a model class.
Although her members are possessed of brilliant intellects, they have always realized that genius is work '
and have always had perfect recitations and never knew what it was to "cut."
The boys of Ninety-Six came to the University for no other purpose than to gain that training which
would equip them for the battles of life.
Bravely have they fought through the battles of college life, and now the final campaign is rapidly drawing to a close. Soon we are to leave these familiar walls and pleasant scenes to grapple with the more
difficult problems of the world. We hope that we have so lived and laboured while at the University that
we may be victorious in these sterner conflicts. .But whatever of power or influence we may attain, or
whatever of success may befall us in the future, we shall always attribute much of our success to the training we
received while at the old University, and pleasant recollections will always cluster around our Alma Mater,
and we will always cherish fond hopes for her future.

fl Seniors Reflection.
a
PON the platform of the very last car,
My cheeks by the cool breezes fanned,
I, a poor, weary, worn-out lad,
Was speeding over the land.
Finals were o'er, Commencement was done,
My girl bidden a tender adieu;
My "dip" reposed safe, in the tray of my trunk,
Tied up with its ribbon of blue.
I mused o'er the friends I was leaving behind,
Perhaps for ever and aye.
And especially of her I had bidden "Good-bye"
On the glorious yesterday.
The echoing yells of the 'Varsity swells,
The Seniors of old Ninety-six,
Continued to sound in my wearied ears,
With the noise of the engine to mix.
I grieved for the life I was leaving behind,
The days so happy and free,
And dreaded to enter the pathway of life,
Seeming dreadfully steep to me.
I was out of touch with the friends at home,
After my four years' stay
In the classic walls of the 'Varsity town
I was leaving behind that day.
I knew on the horizon of my old sphere
New stars had appeared right along;
Old ones had sunk in various ways,
And a new and varied throng
Would take the place of my dear old friends,
The friends of my boyhood days,
With whom in winter I used to dance,
And a-fishing go in Mays.
And yet for months, I'd wistfully longed
For the glorious day to come,
When I could lay my books aside
And work for a future home.
For the real true joy of a man's whole life
Is not in his schoolboy days;
From our borne, ourselves, our joys must flowr
As Cotton beautifully says.
And while in youth from care we're free
As jolly's the day is long,
This kind of happiness cannot be
That of the poet's song.
Responsibility deepens our joy
The happiest man is he
Who works for love and trust and joy,
And is not from care so free.
And so with feelings of deep regret,
A mixture of joy and pain,
I'd packed up all of my souvenirs
And boarded the home-bound train.
With Athens fading from vision,
Faded, too, my college career;
But there opened a vista ahead of me
Of a happiness far more dear.

Cbe junior.
i.
No man can tell how much he knows
About the earth and sea and skies.
HE Junior leads a jolly life;
He is the envy of them all;
His heart is free from care and strife,
His spirits very seldom fall.
VI.
He thinks he knows the cathode rays,
And how the earth and sun are weighed;
He hears, indeed, without amaze,
How Time, Gibraltar's Rock has made.
II.
He feels he lacks the verdant green
That mars the Freshman's beauty fair,
And by his looks it can be seen,
He scorns the Senior's lordly air.
VII.
If one could ride a ray of light,
And had a mind to see the sky,
He'd reach the moon some summer night
Before you wink'd the other eye.
III.
No valid reason can he see
Why he should love the Sophomore.
He quite forgets, indeed, does he,
Himself, was one the year before.
IV.
He puts his trust in kindly Fate,
And lives as best befits his mood.
He has no settled love or hate,
Nor does he on his troubles brood.
*
VIII.
There's scarcely one from all the class
Who jeers at love, and Cupid mocks.
Though each one loves some wayward lass,
His love does not outlast the rocks.
IX.
May Fortune smile upon the class,
And joy be theirs, let come what may.
May future sadness lightly pass,
As in the Junior Class to-day.
V.
He marvels not, nor wonder shows,
For all is clear to Junior eyes,

fiistory of nincty=$cv>cm
To know the history of a class, the reader must fancy himself
a member of that class; he must feel as it feels; breathe the atmosphere that it breathes. He must catch its spirit. He must
glory in its success; mourn its defeat. He must be in sympathy
with its joys and triumphs; with its sorrows and trials.
My kind reader, fancy, if you please, that you are a member
of the Class of '97, and that it is your Junior year. Your first
year, with its freshness, innocence, exuberance, has retired into
the irrevocable past. Your second, with its feeling of selfimportance and egotism, too, has skipped nimbly by. The third,
unlike the other two, is now before you. You feel older. You feel more serious. You recognize
more fully the importance of your work. Add to this a love for manly sports, for the fair, for the good.
Consider yourself a link in the chain of college spirit which can never be broken. With these feelings, you
are a member of that great class which assembled Sept. 18, 1895, to begin its Junior year.
This is the season when football engages our spare time. We can well feel proud of the Juniors on
the gridiron. If it be a class game, we always preserve our prowess and usually come off victors. If the
'Varsity is arrayed against Sewanee, Auburn, or North Carolina, Junior influence and Junior strength plays a
conspicuous part. Nor will we be less conspicuous on the diamond. It is early to make any prediction, as
yet; but judging from the past, we will stand not lower than second in the contest for the pennant, and
will put some valuable men on the 'Varsity team.
College life, however, is not made up of ball games. We must gain information, train our minds and
learn noble ideas, in order that the world might be better for our having lived. Never has a class understood
this better and realized this responsibility more thoroughly than that of '97. Its members are good students.
In almost every field we have our stars. These stars even now are brightening in their lustre, and no doubt
some will be placed in the same magnitude with those great luminaries which our Alma Mater has been
sending forth for nearly a century.
45
' Yet there is a time when we must close our books, forsake our cares, and join in the mazy dance. "On
with the dance! Let joy be unconfined!" How many beautiful germans have we led throughout the year!
How we have enjoyed the smiles and charms of society! If it be asked in what virtue the Juniors excel
most of all, the answer is in their admiration for the fair and beautiful.
When the treasury of the Athletic Association was low, no one helped with more generous hands than
did the Juniors. Nor did we help with mere loans only; but to its aid we devoted some of our best talent.
In that brilliant entertainment given by the Thalians, Junior talent contributed in no little degree to its grand
success. When the Red and Black was placed in the hands of the Athletic Association, two Juniors were
elected on its management;
much of its success is due to this fact. On that eventful day
when the "dear old
o
'
J
'Varsity" meets Emory in debate, many hopes will be centered in the young orator from the Junior Class.
There has started a movement the first of its kind in the history of the University which must not
be unnoticed here. It is an organized movement to persuade every man to become a member of some
church. It is to be hoped that this example will be followed. For, after all, the honors which we gain in
life, the success which we have these are worth nothing unless we have learned to be good examples
worthy of imitation.
But the grandest thing in the Class of '97 is the golden bond of friendship which binds its members
into one great whole. My classmates, this bond will last forever! When our achievements in athletics shall
have been forgotten, when the memory of our college pleasures shall have dwindled away into the remote
past, when our college honors shall have been swept away by cold oblivion's unrelenting wave, even in that
distant period, there will be a warming of the heart and a friendly grasp of the hand when member meets
member of the Class of '97.

You may talk about the classes in our old U. of G.,
But there is only one class in this world for me.
When you see the jolly Soph, as he beats old Blumenthal,
You may put it in your cranium he's a sport, that's all.
II.
And though such a heavy sport, he's the clev'rest boy in town,
He "kills" Polly, "shoots" Zip, knocks all the Profs, down;
Studies "steen" hours each night, bums two o'clock al'e;
And this jolly Sophomore's quite impossible to fail.
III.
In athletics, he gets there, oh yes, with both feet.
Carries off all the honors, is perfect, complete;
Is confident, careful, and awful hard to down;
Is just the pet and darling of this gay old college town.

fiistory of ninety=€igbt

"The historian," says Johnson, ''must either tell what
is false or what is true; in the former case, he is no historian;
in the latter, he has no opportunity for displaying his
ability; for truth is one and all who tell it must tell it
alike." Regardless of wit and humor, we purpose to tell
our little story in the cold, dry words of history. Nor do
we intend to appear Heroditorian, for the deeds of the
subjects of this sketch stand revealed in the pleasant memorials of our College.
The class of '98, unlike other classes which begin
their second year with disquietude and trepidity, met
the dawning of this dismal year determined to view the hardships, imposed by the powers that be, with a
philosophical calm, and resolved, as was old Augustus, to conquer two bitter foes in the realms of Phillippi.
Athletics awoke from a lethargy of ages in September of the year 1894. The shackles had dropped, her
limbs were free, and there then began a career of unprecedented prosperity. With the rise of athletics, the
University of Georgia began to grow in influence and power. Verily,
"The battle for freedom,
When once begun,
Is never lost,
But never won."
Also, contemporaneous with the rise of athletics, was the birth of the class of '98. Modesty, indeed,
will permit us to say that this class sent forth able representatives to take their stands at important posts on
all of Georgia's teams, and to do battle bravely for the prominence and supremacy of their College in all the
honorable contests of valor and manhood.
The social feature of our class is truly remarkable. The Four Hundred, that seemingly impenetrable
society, would delight to honor certain members of '98. Should any one, by reason of some petty oversight
or misunderstanding, chance to occupy a position similar to that of Monsieur Albert de Germain, a mere
statement relative to his membership in the class of '98 would be an irresistible demand for an instantaneous
recognition and a most humble apology.
We can boast a Chesterfield and a Count in our lordly combination. We have men; and men, they
are, who can force Bacchus to exclaim, "O, Hellenicus, strike me, honored sir, lest I be made to blush
for shame!"
In politics we are said to be the rivals of the genius of Napoleon Bonaparte. Though not quite in the
zenith of our power, we can truthfully say, we have come, we are now surveying, and before long we shall
have conquered. Our supremacy is only a question of time.
We are represented in the Thalians and the Glee Club. These important organizations began to honor
us in even our Freshman year. The privilege of membership here is seldom extended to a Freshman. From
this, the reader may plainly observe that there is merit in our ranks.
In oratory we lead the college. We have a Thomas Gray with oratorical fervor, and an Alexander
Stephens with a strong voice and an able body. The halls of our societies may be heard on Saturdays as
they resound with the mighty voices of our orators who are fighting the bloodless battles of debate. When
serious questions which require calm deliberation confront this class, our men show what a keen encounter
of their wits can produce, and what their mettle can withstand.
At the beginning of this history we did not intend to enter upon an extended narration of the deeds
and achievements of the famous boys of '98, nor did we propose to make a bugle blast of the blessings, all
manifold, all pleasing in our sight, that have been heaped upon us; for we apprehended that we might cause
a spasmodic demonstration of the anxieties of jealousy in the hearts of the upper Classmen, but becoming
unconsciously enthusiastic as we naturally began to contemplate the noble records of our classmates, we could
pursue no other course. It was as impossible for us to refrain from speaking a little of our renown as it is
for some of us to refrain from telling one, whose beauty and attractions are rare, the immortal story of love.
There is a matter of graver import of which it now becomes us seriously to speak. As we climb up
this steep, slippery pathway of knowledge, let us not, as a class, become dizzy with self-conceit, but rather
let us extend a helping hand to the sometimes helpless Freshman under us and assist them in their efforts to
scale the rugged rocks; nor should we be forgetful of the upper Classmen, but give them a salutary propulsion
when they are on the eve of falling back upon us. Let this generous spirit pervade our class and we shall
become the model of Freshmen, demand the respect of our seniors, and rise in the estimation of the lasses
of Lucy Cobb.
If your historian has not meted out justice to his class, let this earnest prayer hide his multitude
of faults:
When at last he treads the shadowy pathway that leads the soul to eternal rest, and sounds the mysteries of life beyond the grave; when his quivering heart-strings shall break in death, and he closes his eyes
upon this world, may he see thee then before him still,
Pointing upward.

FRESHMAN
Cbe
ITH youthful face and humble mien,
With startled look and smile serene,
There steps upon the campus green—
The Freshman.
His eyes are bright, his knees are weak.
His voice uncertain, just a squeak.
He is so lonely, humble, meek—
This Freshman.
He's proud he knows his ABC,
Can nicely count his 123;
And wants to know when recess'll be—
The Freshman.
He has great trouble getting a yell.
He learns to cuss and holler—"bad words."
He tries to be so awful swell—
Our Freshman.
The Sophy loves him, the Senior, too.
His wiles are many, his brains are few;
And yet without him we ne'er could "do"—
The Freshman.

fiistory of nincty=nine.
"I sing' of Freshmen and of duffers, the verdant little jays,
With their tiny comprehension and their cutely cunning- ways
IF it were not for the exalted opinion that the average
Freshman has of himself he would, indeed, live a miserablelife. The poor little fellow finds few sympathizers during his
first year at college. The mere fact of his being a Freshman
closes all doors upon him ; and, I might say, places the seal of
condemnation upon him. He enters college full of hope and
feels that he has few equals and no superiors. But oh! how
soon are his hopes blighted and his feelings changed. It is only
a little while before he is made to realize that he is a mere drop
in the bucket. When thrown with the great crowd of college
men he realizes the small part that he plays and longs for the
home and dear ones he left behind.
Such is a fair picture of a boy beginning- life in an Amer­
ican college. It becomes my duty to speak of the Freshman at the University of Georgia.
The class of '99 is one of the largest classes if not the largest, that has ever entered this institution. In
this class we find representatives from every portion of the old State of Georgia, and boys eager to attend the
University have come from other states. A large majority of the class of '99 have entered the University with the
intention of remaining until they have received their "dips," but there are some few who have never let such an
idea enter their head. It is said, that out of this large class, there is not a single one who knows where the
dispensary is. I presume that the reason is that they have never asked the negro boys who run errands for
them. The members of our class are very popular in society. It is very seldom that one of our members fails
to receive an invitation to the Chancellor's reception. Here the kindly doctor has a pleasant word and a
gentle smile to urge us along our long, long journey.
There is one duty that every Freshman class is in honor bound to perform. They owe it to the scores
_ and hundreds who have traveled the long road before. The goats at Lucy Cobb must be painted. This year
an excellent committee was appointed to perform this grave duty. I wish here to sound their praise, so
faithful were they to their trust.
In athletics our class has done well. One of our members played guard on Georgia's great team. We
had another member who acted as substitute: he stood ever ready to enter the fierce conflict should one of
his comrades fall a victim on the field. Besides these two star players, there are many well-trained athletes
in our class—boys whose destiny it is to bring fame and renown to the old institution in which they now play
so humble a part.
It would not do to pass over our athletic history without mentioning our great game with the Seniors.
Think of it! Ninety-Nine face to face with Ninety-Six on the terrible field of battle. Through two long
halves the sturdy Freshmen held their own. At the end neither side had scored. Keeping the Seniors from
scoring was more than a victory for us.
Sometimes it seems that '99 is a long way off, and many of us feel like giving up in despair. But the
years pass quickly by and soon we will be Seniors. Oh ! with what joy we look forward to that time. Then
we can wear tall hats and carry large walking-sticks. Then we can cease to drink " mountain dew," and
quench our thirst with sparkling wines. When we think of this we feel like telling time to hurry on and
bring to us that happy day.
I wish that space was allowed me to say something of every member of my class. Each one deserves
special mention. But, alas, I cannot hope to speak individually of my classmates. All that I can say is
that a better crowd of fellows were never gathered together. Such, kind reader, is our simple history. When
you know the trials that a Freshman has passed through, I know we will have your sympathy, if not your

Cbe Ron-fraternity Club.
HE idea of a Non-Fraternity Club may seem paradoxical to some, but it will not appear that way
to
those who are perfectly familiar with the conditions, as they are here in college. Over one-third
of
the students, for various reasons, do not join fraternities ; to effect some co-operation, without binding
oaths, is the object of this organization.
The club dates back two years, but those two years have been eventful ones for the "Nons." We
make no fight against the fraternities, on the contrary, our relations are of the friendliest—we simply
use all
fair means to further the interests of the "Nons." Our men may be found in the front ranks on the
athletic
field, in the halls of debate and in the class-room.

HE most important organization in any college is its Y. M. C. A. By the success of
this can be judged the Christian life of the college. This is the only great factor in
reaching the student body and keeping them interested in the advancement of the cause
of Christ and in the raising of the standard of morality of their companions. If the Y.
M. C. A. lags, the general religious life lags; if its members are enthusiastic, the religious
life is at its flood.
As we look over this year's work of the college association of the Y. M. C. A., we can but feel gratified
that there has been some improvement in the work. This advance is due to various causes; but the last
year's corps of officers, especially Mr. Orr, should be given most of the praise. It was mainly by their
efforts that five men were sent to Knoxville to the Southern Students' Summer School, where, meeting with
the college men of the different Southern States, and with some even from Great Britain, they necessarily
became imbued with a zeal otherwise impossible. These men have entered the work this year better
prepared for Christian work, and by their efforts, supported by the other Christians in college, a fairly
successful fall campaign was conducted at the beginning of the year.
Nothing has added more to the success of the work than has the getting of new rooms. On our return
after the summer vacation, we were made glad by finding the lower floor of Phi Kappa Hall nicely fitted up.
The use of these rooms was granted us indefinitely by the Phi Kappa Society on request of Mr. Orr. Here
the meetings have been free from the unpleasant associations which necessarily cling to a recitation room,
and therefore they have been more enjoyable to all.
A change has been made in the time of election of officers, which will undoubtedly prove beneficial.
Hereafter the new officers will take charge in February instead of September. This will enable them to
become thoroughly acquainted with the work before the opening of the college year, a time when their
greatest skill is required. In accordance with this change, new officers have been elected to take charge in
April for this year. They are as follows: G. E. Maddox, President; F. K. Boland, Vice-President; J. B.
Lawrence, Treasurer; C. A. Weddington, Secretary; W. L. Moss, Corresponding Secretary; Clem Akerman,
Librarian. These officers will enter office with brighter prospects than any of their predecessors. It only
105
requires the hearty support and co-operation on the part of every Christian in college to make their work
during the coming year successful.
Having made improvements in the past, is it too much to hope that we will next have an Association
building on the campus, well fitted up with reading room, gymnasium, etc.? Other colleges have such
buildings, why shouldn't we ? Let this be our goal in the future. The University Association is not now all
it should be, but it is pressing toward that point.

H
ISTORY is such a plausible theory of the past that few men are bold enough to deny it. It deals
with all things, and intermingles fact and fancy in a bewildered, yet pleasing, confusion.
It is not necessary that the historian should have been intimately associated, or personally
connected, with the characters who animate the labyrinth of ideas and ideals by means of which
he hopes to perpetuate something of the past in the memories of the oncoming millions. In fact,
if the above were necessary, our so-called knowledge of the past would be embarrassingly limited, and the
schoolboy would advance to maturer years before his powers of memory were awakened from their innocence
and lethargy.
Thus it is that we are asked by these theorists of the unknown past, to accept the plausible and say
nothing, while they, like the promulgators of Grecian myths, muffle the cries of their consciences with the
terse fabrication, "Ignorance is bliss."
Impressed with these facts, the historian of the Demosthenian Literary Society pauses with his pen in
his hand, turns his eyes inward, and, for a few moments, is lost in meditation.
To be specific would not be just; on the one hand the mention of the dead might provoke a tear in the
eye of an unreconciled friend ; on the other, an allusion to the living might cause an external extension of
that organ which at present is woefully deficient in internal development. Generalization is, therefore, my
object, and in this I acknowledge, that with respect to many exceptions, I am generous before I am just.
The history of the Demosthenian Literary Society began in the early dawn of the nineteenth century.
This society tottered out modestly yet firmly, and, early in the twenties, before it was even of age, it was the
proud owner of a home and the still prouder exerter of a magnetic influence.
I do not claim for her all the laurels which have been gathered by the disciples of the pen ; I do not
hold that every victor on the oratorical arena once knelt at her altars and took her vows ; but I do hold that
many of these who have proudly illustrated Georgia in church and in State, caught their first inspiration
within her classic walls and gladly pay her homage to-day. The names to be heard in the roll-call of her
alumni put to shame the thought of superiors and awaken respect for those properly classed as equals.
With each recurring year she adds new names to this illustrious roll, and the fall of '95 found her
gathering together the votaries of the all-powerful art and holding out to them the magic wand of eloquence.
108
Her active sons, drawing inspiration from the deeds of their forefathers, agree with Cicero of old, that
it is most glorious to excel men in that in which men excel all other animals. The verdant Freshman, em­
boldened by Demosthenian's influence, discards the motto of Carlyle that "silence is the eternal duty of man."
Timidly, yet hopefully, he ventures forth to make his maiden effort, and while his ideas grow few and his
words avoid utterance, the sympathy of his hearers crystallize desire into determination. As a Sophomore he
may be found proudly discussing the practical problems of the day and, with wonderful feeling, declaiming
in touching accents, "Ye call me chief," etc.
So it is, step by step he advances until he begins to reap the rich harvest of fluency and ease. Then
it is that the golden glories of oratory present themselves in their true and natural light. A simple taste is
all he has had; he longs to satisfy a growing thirst. He has overcome the sterner difficulties; he would now
seek fields anew. Proudly he remembers the victories of the past; hopefully he anticipates the conflicts of
the future and gladly he acknowledges his debt of gratitude to his Alma Mater.
The Demosthenian Society closes the year '95-96 with no self-laudation save active, earnest work. For
the results of this work she is willing to wait, and since each year adds a new chapter to her history, she
will jealously guard her future advancement. If her future proves as bright as her past, her sons will be
satisfied and her influence most potent.

fiistory of Pbi Kappa Bterary Society,
T
HE history of Phi Kappa during the session of '95-96 is not one—sad to relate—refulgent with
brilliant advancement. It is true that the number of our members is greater than ever before,
having received into our Society this year the entire Law Class, with their "massive eyes and eagle
brains," and the majority of Freshmen and Sophomores whose burning ambition has sustained
Phi Kappa during the entire year.
Our financial condition is indeed worthy of remark. It is mainly through our efforts that the old
Magazine debt has been paid; and besides we have paid all other arrears and still have a large surplus.
Since last year, through the kindness of the trustees, our Society hall has been thoroughly renovated
and fitted up with all modern improvements, and now presents a neat and comfortable appearance. The
lower floor, which was formerly used as a storage room, has undergone a wonderful change, and is now used
as a study-hall. We have extended the use of this floor to the Y. M. C. A., and now that organization holds
its weekly meetings there.
The members of the Society, though negligent of their duties as debaters, have shown that within their
hearts they have the true spirit of ambition and patriotism, and our contests have all been marked by a
greater number of participants than at any time in the last few years.
There were twelve contestants for Anniversarian's place, and the Anniversarian, Mr. W. A. Harris, of
Macon, may well feel proud of his victory. The Society, too, has just cause for feeling proud of its Anniver­
sarian exercises this year. More interest was manifested in the exercises this year than in the past, and
everything passed off grandly. The orator of the day, Mr. Harris, acquitted himself nobly and added one
more flower to the wreath of literary victories that now adorns him. The subject of his speech, "The Reserved
Forces," was particularly appropriate, and his closing address to the Society was full of noble sentiment.
His speech throughout was characterized by deep thought, sound logic and beautiful language, and in his
frequent bursts of eloquence he proved himself to be an orator of unusual ability.
The Champion Debater's contest this year was marked by unprecedented interest. The subject
debated—"Resolved, That the signs of the times point to the decline of our Republic,"—was ably discussed by
no
thirteen men, and the three men selected are well worthy of congratulations. They were: Mr. G. T. Jackson,
of Augusta—who won the medal—Mr. O. H. Gray, of Butts county, and Mr. J. T. Moore, of Jackson, Ga.
From all the signs, we may, with almost absolute certainty, predict a victory for Phi Kappa over Damosthenian in the Champion Debate at Commencement this year.
Though our contests were full of interest, our debates, as has been previously remarked, did not come
up to the high standard characteristic of them in the past. A faithful few have attended all the meetings and
have earnestly endeavored to infuse fresh spirit into the Society, though we must say that their efforts have
not been crowned with success. The lethargy hanging over the Society was fully recognized by the members,
and a committee was recently appointed to frame a new constitution. In the new constitution radical
changes will be made, such as non-compulsion of membership, fines for misbehavior and absence, and all in
all, promises to restore interest in the Society. When the new constitution has been adopted, we trust, and
really expect, that the Society will undergo a complete metamorphosis. Our old Hall once reverberated
with the eloquence of Hill, Stephens, Grady and many others, who once shaped the destinies of our State
and of our Republic, and it should be our constant desire and purpose to emulate them in this respect and
see that as much interest is taken in the Society as of yore, and that the grand old flag of Phi Kappa shall
always wave triumphantly.

Cbe Irish Club fiistory.
motto.
Fruff Frough, Erin go braugh.
The object of the Irish Club is the upbuilding and advancement (financially) of its members. No
one can become a member unless he passed the required examination in the Freshman Class.
Any member who meets a Sophomore on the street, in a public building or anywhere, and does not
cast a slur at him in some shape or form, will be subject to expulsion from the club and publicly disgraced.
Every Irishman has a "nom de plume," and is accordingly known to his club members. Messrs. O'Dougherty and Sullivan, by virtue of their names, are given the highest offices in the club. Why the other members
are given their "cognita's" is a secret of the organization to be especially kept from the Faculty.
Any member of the club found on the street in an intoxicated condition, will be publicly denounced
as a "sot," and thereafter he will be ostracized from all society in which the Irish Club rules.
The Mulligan Guards is a secondary organization founded upon the principles of the Irish Club.
They have no connection with this most potential society.

N every way, except financially, this has been, by far, Georgia's most successful year in Athletics. The
new constitution of the Athletic Association, which was an experiment last year, has worked to perfec­
tion. Politics are entirely eliminated from our athletic system. Every man has an equal chance at every
office, and every faction in college has equal representation. No longer do men sneer when they hear
that a certain man was elected to fill an office ; for they know that no political combination put him there,
and that he did not have to resort to scheming and trickery to get the place. The officers are chosen by
men who have the very best interests of the college at heart. This being the case, it is really an honor to
hold an office. The elimination of politics from athletics has been the greatest work that Georgia has yet
done in athletics. A broader spirit has spread all over the college. The question now is, not "what
fraternity is he ?" but "what kind of football does he play ?" Members of the different teams know that
the whole college is behind them : not only to celebrate their victories, but to sympathize with them in
their defeats.
Under these circumstances Georgia sent the best football team on the gridiron in '95 that she has ever
had. Although the percentage of victories was not as large as that of the team of the preceding years, still
"bigger game" was played for. The fact that they did not win more games was not due to their lack of
ability so much as to the very hard schedule they had to play. Two games with a team like North Carolina
within five days is too much for any Southern team ; when, in addition to that, the fact that the last three—
and, in fact, with the exception of the games with North Carolina, the hardest three—games of the season
were played within eleven days, is considered, no one can be surprised that Georgia went down on Thanks­
giving day before her splendidly trained and conditioned rivals—Auburn. We would not take one iota of
g-lory from Auburn—for they played the prettiest game we have ever seen in the South—but the fact that
our men were "stale" when they went into that game is undeniable. Concerning our game with Vanderbilt,
the least said the better—for Vanderbilt. It resulted in a tie, and a tie that will ever remain a disgrace to
Vanderbilt sportsmanship—or rather to her lack of it. Three defeats, two by North Carolina and one by
Auburn ; a tie game with Vanderbilt; and three victories, over Wofford, Alabama, and Sewanee ; form the
record of Georgia's team of '95. They were all faithful in their training, and determined and fearless in their
work ; and every member of the team will always be among the household gods of every man who was in
college when they played.
Field day was quite a success this year. Considering the roughness of our improvised tracks, and the
inclemency of the weather, the records made were very good ones. More and more interest is being mani­
fested in track athletics here every year ; and next year we hope to have a team that will compete successfully
with that of any Southern college. The condition of our finances prevented our sending a team to Nashville
this year. We hope to be unembarrassed next spring.
For the first time in the history of Georgia, tennis is a real department of the Athletic Association.
The generosity of the trustees enabled us to have four very good courts graded in the Northeastern corner of
the campus. They are filled every evening with men practicing for the tournament, which will be held in
May. The champion wins a cup, given by Professor Patterson. Tennis is good sport and enables the more
timid, but athletically inclined men to get healthful exercise.
It is from her baseball team that Geergia expects most. Up to the time at which this goes to press,
but one game has been played with a college. It was with South Carolina, and the score was eleven to ten in
Georgia's favor. This is the first year that we have had a baseball coach. Mr. Jennings, of the Baltimore
team, was with us for two weeks, and taught the boys more baseball than they had learned in all their life
before.
Here's wishing everlasting success to old Georgia in all of her undertakings. May her teams always have
the reputation for manliness and honor and sportsmanship which they have had in the past!

I
T is a time honored custom for the Engineering students of the University to suspend regular exercises,
don old clothes and go out on a week's practice survey each year during the balmy month of May. So,
on the first Monday of that month, in the year 1896, the Engineering corps, arrayed in straw hats, hick­
ory shirts, rolled up trousers, and broad smiles, and clothed in their right minds, though fortunately for
the public they were not entirely dependent on this last named garment for clothing, assembled at the
Moore Building to pack the camp outfit.
By nine o'clock the heavily loaded camp wagon rolled off, carrying two of the boys to select a site
for the camp and pitch the tents.
The rest of the party left on the Macon & Northern Railroad for Florence, where they were met by a
big wagon and a double seated buggy sent over by Mr. John Bostwick, for whom the survey was to be made.
A five miles ride brought us to a beautiful spot where camp was pitched and the Indian name Appalachee, bestowed upon it.
The next morning work began in earnest, and by dinner-time 21,800 feet of the "Preliminary" had been run.
A hard rain, lasting into the night, prevented any suppers being cooked and kept us in our tents most
of the evening, except for hurried foraging expeditions to the provision tent, where soda crackers, pickles,
and cold ham were available; and the way they disappeared would have done credit to almost anything except
a billy-goat. At last a bright idea, or at least a light idea—for it was original, occurred to one of the party,
and soon five candles were making it "extremely hot" under a tin plate, supported by three stakes driven ip
the ground under the tent, and from it the savory odors of broiling ham was scented afar.
A few minutes later the crestfallen expression on the five faces, which a few minutes before were
watching the proceedings so eagerly, was ludicrous to see. Somebody had upset the pan. A philosophical
view of things was taken, however, and the dirt attached was credited on each man's proverbial peck.
Wednesday morning brought the sun with it, and by dinner-time the "Preliminary" was finished. The
rest of the day was spent in incorporating the town. From the cross-roads at the post-office as a center, a
mile square was laid out, and it was called Bostwick. The streets don't wear belgian block yet, but they
probably will soon after our railroad is built.
The "Location" was accomplished on Thursday, and on Thursday night if anyone had taken a look in
the various tents they might have guessed that something unusual was about to happen.
Soap, water, and hair-brushes were being plied vigorously and Prof. Strahan even wore a starched
shirt. The party, not content with having had ham for breakfast, dinner, and supper every day since Mon­
day, was on the way to hear a lecture by Ham (Hon. H. W. J.) on his well known subject, "The Snollygoster
in Politics." The Lucy Cobb and Normal School girls were advertised to be there, but they didn't go.
The lecture was very good. Mr. Ham said that "Snollygoster" was a word of Greek extraction, and
the "Politics" was a hybrid, the "Poly" coming from the Latin language and meaning "many" while the rest of
the word came from the woods—and we thought so too.
On Friday two water powers were calculated on a stream near the line, and afterward the solvent power
of the water was tested, but it was found saturated before half the party got in.
Camp was struck early Saturday morning and the survey of 1896 declared at an end, not, however,
until great things had been accomplished.
One of the Freshmen has already become a stockholder on the road, and he declared that Mr. Jno.
Bostwick's horse was the meanest thing to hold he ever saw.
It is said that one of the Juniors, who is young and inexperienced, having become a B. E. only last
year, has applied for a place as chainman on the government survey. We think the officials will probably
recommend him for dragging the chain and will probably give him a ball, too, in lieu of his attending
Senior hop next year.
It was hinted in the Bostwick daily paper (which is almost as big as the Athens Banner and fully as
large as Red and Black} that the only Senior on survey is in love with the sister of the prospective railroad
president and would probably get a position as transit man—when the construction is finished and the rolling
stock on. He will spend the summer running an Athens street-car preparatory to the responsible position he
is to hold on the B. & F. R. R. One of the Juniors says, however, if that Senior don't quit meeting the afore­
mentioned young lady at lectures, that he will have to make rapid transit. But I guess the writer had better

•* ^ Side CalRs witb Students * •*
BY LUTHER MASHMORE.
Under this heading Mr. Mashmore cheerfully answers any questions put him by his student correspondents.
-R-O J-C-S-N: I really cannot recommend anything for taking the curve out of your legs,
as all such preparations are liable to prove injurious. However, you might try "AntiFrizz," so widely advertised as having taken the kink out of so many negroes' hair. Your
words of praise for my little book are very much appreciated.
"Bull": It is generally considered good taste for a gentleman to pay a lady's car fare,
when he asked her to go out with him. (2) You are correct in your statement that nine-tenths of the great
men never looked in a book, and are wise to follow their example. Yes, I am a man.
Jo B-y-: The check on a gentleman's suit is not usually more than four inches square; nor should light
clothes be worn in the wintry season. (2) Purple and green are not usually considered a tasteful combina­
tion; nor are elephant's breath and sky-blue pink. (3) Yes, "L'Envoi" looks very graceful and Frenchy at
the end of a poem, but you should not end all of your efforts in this style.
C-a-l-e B-a-k: No, it is not exactly the thing to take away swans or other statuary, as souvenirs, from
private houses or public buildings, when visiting or invited to an entertainment. (2) Yes, a twelve-inch arm
is a very good one, but one should not dwell too much on one's strong point. (3) White shoestrings are
rapidly coming into vogue. No, I have never had my picture taken.
J-h- D-v-s: While sweaters are worn more generally now than formerly, it is not considered exactly
proper to wear one every day in the week, though the washerwoman has stolen all of your shirts. You
might buy some more.
C-a-e-n-e C-n-e-a-: It was Shakespeare who said: "Neither a borrower nor a lender be." From what
you say, I imagine that only the first part of the quotation is applicable to you. Possibly, however, Shake­
speare was not speaking of collars, cuffs, cravats, sweaters, tennis racquets, slippers, scarf pins, etc., in the
above. As I have often said before, I am a man.
153
n
F-o-e-s: Curly hair is generally considered very becoming to young men, but in every case, it
should be naturally so. If you have burnt your hair while trying to curl it, use Witch Hazel Cold Cream,
which is recommended for burns, bruises, etc. (2) Olives are eaten with the fingers.
B-w-r-: It is not the proper thing to use expletives in the class-room.
B-a-e: The proper length for a gentleman's hair is about an inch, and in no case should it exceed three
inches. No, I do not think it will give you a cold to have it cut. Suppose you try and see.
M. O. M.: It is not strictly according to the rules of etiquette to sail missiles at the head of unoffending
professors after night. Your prompt action in acknowledging it, however, was entirely au fait. Am always
glad to see such traits of character in my boys. (2) I have never had a picture taken.
Mc-r-d-: The wages of a trained nurse are generally about ten dollars a week, and if I thought that I
was not getting as much as I deserved, I would simply state it in a manly way to my employers. (2) It is
not usual to go to sleep in the class-room.
154
Cbc Parting.
The Senior's diploma is placed by the side
His other fond treasures a picture blue-eyed,
A large pack of letters, a soft little glove,
And a veil that she once wore, this college boy's love.
And he bids her good-bye this night though it seems,
As his foot treads the measures, he dances in dreams,
And that phantom forms only keep time to the swell
Of the violin old. Yet he murmurs- "Farewell."
The last dance is over. The low, throbbing moan
Of the last sobbing waltz through the ballroom is borne,
The last word is whispered soft and low in her ear,
And the german is over the last of the year.
And college li re's ended and real life begins
With the sunrise to-morrow. Real joys and real sins,
And real disappointment must be wove in Fate's loom
For each merry reveler in Life's great ballroom.

As nameless stars in the trembling mists above,
Thine eyes in sweet profusion shed their lights of love.
Those lips, fit seeming for the land of bliss,
Are most worthy an archangel's kiss.
And hair—the such was ne'er to mortal given—
It fringes tho't's drop't from the tapestry of Heaven
Thy cheeks have stolen the summer sunset's glow.
Thy brow is fair as distant banks of winter snow.
But as a flower, in wildwoods blooming fair,
We know that thou'rt blooming, yet we know not where.

moonligM on tbe Gridiron, -»
'Twas a calm cold night of November,
O'erhead was a cloudless sky;
The stars, just like dying embers,
Looked down from their throne on high.
The full moon, in all its splendor,
Lighted up the lustrous sky,
As on the campus we wandered,
A friend of mine and I.
The gridiron shone in the moonlight,
The goal posts pointed above;
Yet my friend, on this charming evening,
Was thinking but of her love.
As the captain of the 'Varsity,
She'd seen him toil and fight
On the field on which we wandered,
On this cold November night.
And 'twas born of a noble purpose,
This moonlight evening's stroll,
For she gazed with terrible earnest­
ness
As we passed from goal to goal.
Her eyes were fixed intently
On the trodden earth beneath;
And every blade of grass was moved
That graced the dreary heath.
Not an inch escaped her glances
As we slowly walked along;
And she hummed a plaintive bar
or two
Of the dear old 'Varsity song.
But quick as a swooping eagle,
Suddenly stoops she down,
And holds aloft triumphantly
A curly soft lock of brown.
157
"At last," she murmured softly,
"I knew it could be found,
For I saw that horrid Sewanee
man
Throw lots of it on the ground."
And tenderly wrapping up his hair
In a kerchief dainty and small,
She turned to me with a happy
smile,
And simply said, "That's all."

* n Celestial Prototype, *
the banks of the Hoang-Ho,
In a racing shell from the college near,
In the realms of the great I Am,
So she winked to think of a pleasant hour,
Where the lotus blooms in splendid show, Spent by the side of her Senior dear,
And the poppy rears its head to damn
Whom her charms, well practiced, held in power.
The celestial foolish that "hits the pipe,"
Swift as the*swallow that skims the face
To read those lines so passing fair,
Of the mighty river, shoots the shell,
That take the print of illusion type;
Forced by arms they deem a disgrace,
To draw his soul more often there,
In a college youth, because they tell
I Am, the Mighty, to foster learning,
Of hours spent in exercise,—
Endowed a school of matchless fame;
They of would-be rival schools,
With his mind astute discerning,
Whose faculties think it most unwise
The method sure to preserve his name.
To conduct a college under rules
Allowing an inter-collegiate game.
A maiden strolled in careless ease,
It nears the bank and the oarsman's queue,
Leaving the prints of a tiny shoe,
Toyed by the breezes as he came,
'Mid daisies fair and buttercup leaves
Greeted her, waving its ribbon blue.
(Provided these indigenous grew).
Her almond eyes had a happy look,
He reached the shore, this Mongol youth,
That presaged the tryst of a lover true,
And lovingly gave the waiting one
Their obliquity anon an increase took,
A rub of the nose, a greeting, in truth,
As she winked "the other" a time or two.
We are well content to let alone,
Well might she wink, this Chinese maid,
And accord the heathen every delight,
As she strolled by the Hoang-Ho,
He derives in ecstasy from its use.
For she knew the waters that rippling played
His whisperings soft were all most trite,
At her feet, would bring her favored beau
So your patience here I'll not abuse.
168
Besides, 'tis a form of verse apart
From the unskilled poet who writes these lines,
That begins at the end and ends at the start.
Enough then be it for her who pines
For knowledge of the nothings the Mongols say,
Wooing their loves under Chinese suns,
To know, as she is wooed in May,
From antipode to antipode the story runs.
When fancies are sweetest and know no pain,
When pleasures are deepest and fear no ill,
Fall surely the blows that soon arraign
Weak, human feelings 'fore the dominant Will.
He mentioned departure, a presage of woe,
For this simple maiden had been there before,
And the youth who brought her heart so low,
Had not been the first to trample it o'er.
Full many a Freshman had 'listed affection
And lived in her favor till some indiscretion,
Had singled him out for speedy detection,—
"By order of Faculty"—you know the expression.
And Time had touched her with tender hand,
No mark being left of years that were gone,
And now she thought that a loving band,
Held surely this last who loved her alone!
But Fate inexorable not so decreed;
She held him then as one of her brothers,
And joined her sex inspired, indeed,
With thought most happy that "There're others."

•* * J\ Seaside Reverie. * -»
Late, one evening, near the close of the day,
I sat.by the seaside, far, far away;
Thinking and dreaming the moments away;
And idling.
The restless waves, they dashed at my feet
Then turned again, companions to meet,
And crabs and fiddlers over my feet—
Went sidling.
I dreamed of the past, forever increasing,
Of the present now in one moment ceasing,
And gazed upon my trousers uncreasing
With sadness.
The moon and the stars so coyly did flirt,
The tide rose up with an immense spurt
And splashed all over my negligee shirt,
With madness.
I placed my feet on a neighboring stone,
Dreamed of my love, my darling, my own,
And the ocean with its monotonous moan,
Kept swellin'.
Its arms my seat and footstool were gripping,
While I sweet nectar of the past was sipping,
And suddenly the stones from under me slipping,
I fell in.
Sadly I rose, and lamenting my dreaming,
My rapturous thinking, planning and scheming,
My way o'er the sands in the moonlight gleaming,
I wended.
Sadly thus my brain's machinations,
Its thoughts of the future and such occupations
As- seaside reveries in summer vacations
Were ended.

(
T was a lovely June evening—an ideal Indian summer day. He and his love had just
finished one setto upon the court, the sun had set too, and now he set to courting her
while they both sat to rest upon a settle, which was at the side of the court. She was at
the side of the courier and he was at the side of the courtee. When they had settled
down upon the settle, he asked her to "settle the question, please," for this is the way all
courters court.
" Dearest," he said, " I will willingly serv.e you for life if you will return my love." " C. O.
D., "she whispered, which, to the initiated, means "call on Dad. " But," he protested, "should he
smash me from the lobby, place me in the alley, or give me a lansdown with the aid of his pedal
extremities, there would be the deuce to play." " Y. M. C. A., " was her softly murmured
answer, which, being interpreted, meant, "you might call again." He, of course, admired her
spirit, and let her head settle upon the right lapel of his coatee, where it rested. And now you
and I may rest.

His glance her figure wanders down
While on the sands they wait,
" Methinks, fair maid," said he, "your gown
Beginneth rather late."
She smiles, and then a look demure,
To wear she doth endeavor,
While she replies: " Dear sir, I'm sure
Tis better late than never."

Sonnet.
I sang of Life in other years, and said,
"Thine eyes the stars'white lightning, and thy breath
Sweet unto madness!"—But these years are dead;
Shredded their faint, sweet gold, and whitest Death
Holds their perfumeless flowers in his hands!
And I shall liken Life with what compare,
Who walk alone in these dim-lighted lands,
The years grown grey, strangely and unaware.
I do not know, and yet if back to me
Old days, old dreams, old faces crowding came,
Could old associations set me free,
Whose soul hath aged and failed like shrunken flames,
Should I not cry, still cry with passionate Ruth—
"Come back to me, beloved, O my youth?"
Cbe maiden's ttlily
OU great conceited college man,
You think you hold right in your hand
The way to fool all maids on land—
But do you ?
You think the maid loves only you,
She is so sweet and so demure,
Too gentle, kind, too good and pure,
To do you.
She seems so natural and good;
You know full well she never could,
And if she could she never would
Deceive you.
In her remarks, your deity
Talks with spontaniety.
She must, with her great piety,
Believe you.
But I shall tell you, I, who know,
Your old "Uncle" now will show
How gentle maidens catch a beau
And pull him.
When a Fresh, she would address,
She dwells upon his sportiness.
It takes not her hardest nor her best
To fool him.
She tells the Seniors not to drink,
She knows the Sophomore does not think,
She fears the Junior oft does wink
At ladies.

She says, " do you men study, ever ? "
To please you this doth fail, oh, never !
You're thought a sport, from books dissever,
The greatest.
You protest you study—she won't believe;
And thus yonr mind she doth relieve:
" For your gross neglect oft do I grieve,"—
Sharp maiden.
And thus you think you make her think,
You're at dissipation's direst brink;
With sorrows added link by link,
You're laden.
She joins in football conversation,
Thinks tennis the best of recreation,
In spring is wild o'er the game of the nation
How bland!
Entertaining in her every word,
Indeed she is rare, rare bird.
She, insincere! It is absurd—
She's grand!
These are but few of her old ways;
Her every whim the world obeys,
At her feet, his hoard the miser lays,
Ah, woman.
You often sneer at pleading lover,
Though 'round his head fair angels hover,
You cast him off—" he'll soon recover,"—
Inhuman!
— Colvin, '

I saw a violet yesterday,
With petals withered and dead;
On the pavement hard and cold it lay
Crushed by a thoughtless tread.
II.
I wondered who had dropped it there,
And who had caused its doom;
. ' What hand had sought its beauty rare,
And plucked it in it's bloom.
III.
Did a mother, with hair as white as snow,
That innocent flower love,
For the sake of one who long ago
Had gone to the home above ?
VI.
Ah ! Why 'twas there, and whence it came,
I could not hope to know;
It's owner was still without a name
As I turned away to go.
IV.
Or was it a child in thoughtless glee,
Who, seeing the plant at its feetf
Plucked the flower forsooth to see
What made it smell so sweet ?
VII.
But that withered flower a lesson taught,
A lesson of deepest truth.
" There's many a hope," I sadly thought',
"That's blighted in its youth."
V.
Was the blossom dropped by a maiden fair,
Who blithely tripped along,
A bunch of violets in her hair,
And in her heart a song ?
VIII.
We never know what thoughtless word,
What cold and careless glance
Has pierced the heart of one who heard,
Like the poisoned point of a lance.

Che Dying Day.
i.
II.
In the distance a river is flowing,
With a subdued and murmuring sound,
Which the leaves, by the breezes rustling,
Echo in the forests around.
HE evening is rapidly fading,
The vesper its course has begun;
The meadows, resplendent, are bathing
In the last golden rays of the sun.
III.
Through the air a lone bird is flying,
As if long deprived of rest.
Aware that the day is dying,
The truant returns to her nest.
V.
IV.
The shadows are rapidly forming,
The outlines becoming obscure,
The landscape slowly is fading,
The views no longer endure.
The darkness has finished closing,
The veil of night's o'erspread.
Blackness, all pervading,
The dying day is dead.

Rest and peace in vain I crave,
In ecstasy I live thy slave;
Dower'd with hope, with promise blessed,
Thou dost reign upon my breast.
RAW me nearer, all mine own,
Warms my heart for thee alone,
Every sense responsive thrills,
Each caress my being fills.
III.
Nearer, nearer, I implore,
Ere we part—an hour more.
Closer still, for I am thine,
Burns my heart, for thou art mine.
IV.
Thou the message, I the wire,
I the furnace, thou the fire;
I the servant, thou the master.
Roaring, red-hot mustard plaster.

•* •* * Biological "Cab." •» •* •*
In "Biological Lab" of dear U. of G.,
The marvels performed are wondrous to see,
Proty here reigns, the monarch of all
The freaky things gathered in "Richardson" hall.
Birds, cows and horses, paramecia and bear,
The crayfish and lobster and worm like a hair,
All kinds of creations from a skate to a deer,
In solemn assembly, arrange themselves here.
His pupils, renowned for their learning and lore,
Are skilled in the art of spilling of gore.
All cats, dogs and rabbits, recognizing the same,
Flee for their lives if you mention their name.
Under capable, competent, proficient direction,
The pupil is thoroughly skilled in dissection.
The scalpel is handled with delicate art
And livers and tissues are torn wide apart.
Bacilli are nurtured with tenderest care,
And treated as pets by the "Lab" students here,
And these embryo doctors have felt no alarm
Lest the germs in their gambols should do them some harm
172
HE sun has set in the western sky;
Across the grass the shadows creep;
The whip-poor-will's sad and plaintive cry
Awakes the owl from dreamless sleep.
In glorious golden robes of light,
The sun has sunk to rest at last.
The crickets greet the coming night,
And twilight gathers thick and fast.
The stars begin to deck the sky;
Their pale light scarcely can be seen.
The gloom is thick in woods near by,
Where grows the fern so fresh and green.
And now are heard the tinkling bells;
The cows no longer care to roam,
But from the cool and shady dells
At last are coming slowly home.
This is indeed a 'witching hour;
This space between the day and night,
When dewdrops kiss each gentle flower
That droops its head in soft twilight.
George T. Jackson.

.»* j> j» ci)c $ong of the Dance. •* •* ^
( With apologies to Hood. )
Dance—dance—dance,
Till my legs I can hardly use;
Dancing away with a double step
My health as well as my shoes.
ITH legs that are tired and weak,
With a girl hanging on to his arm,
A dancer danced in a dancing hall
Dancing himself quite warm.
Dance—dance—dance,
Those figures with many a prance
And still with a voice of dolorous pitch
He sang "The Song of the Dance."
Dance—dance—dance,
My labors never cease,
And what are its wages—a sickly smile,
And pants with never a crease,
A tired arm, a sleepy head,
An ankle weak—a hand
Placed for awhile within your own,
And music of the band.
Dance— dance—dance,
While the parents are taking a snooze;
Dance—dance—dance,
While the boys are taking their booze.
It's oh! that I might become
A merman of the sea,
Where man has never a leg to dance,
If this be jollity.
Oh! but to breathe the breath
Of the cowslip and primrose sweet,
With the sky above my head
And no pumps upon my feet.
For only one short week
To feel as I used to do
Before I ever knew the art
Of dancing three steps or two.
Dance—dance—dance,
While my head gets into a whirl.
Dan ce— dance—dance,
I twist and wriggle and twirl.
Heel and flatfoot and toe,
Toe and flatfoot and heel,
Until from exhaustion I almost fall,
And shake and totter and reel
With legs that are tired and weak,
With a girl hanging on to his arm,
A dancer danced in a parlor bright,
Dancing himself quite warm.
Dance—dance—dance,
Those figures with many a prance,
And still in a voice where sorrow purls,
Would that its tones could reach the girls,
He sang "The Song of the dance."
O men, who don't know a step!
O men, who never have learned!
You don't know what a snap you have,
Until you're twisted and turned.

It also stands for Johnson, likewise Jackson, too.
TV is for Akerman, C., ]., A., and Clem,

Shem.
K's for Killorin, the boys call him "Jake,"
At " running 'round corners " he surely takes the cake.

He shakes it and squeezes like a little man.
L is for Lockhart, who sports a moustache,
And never does anything hasty or rash.

His figure is handsome, but, my, see his face !

Words like torrents from his labials flow.

Tho' he does strut around in trousers light blue.

Thank heavens, this ditty is ended at last.

.»* Conclusion.
I
N coming to write the conclusion of this PANDORA, mingled with a sigh of relief that the work has been
completed, is the pleasure afforded me in expressing my sincere thanks for all aid rendered in this effort.
I make no apology for this book. Let it speak for itself. If it is creditable, give it that reputation;
if not, be as generous as possible.
We have had many difficulties, but with earnest efforts and untiring energy, we have surmounted all,
and now stand to hear your comment. Mr. J. G. Pittman, the Business Manager of the edition, has made a
most efficient officer. By his indefatigable industry he has made this a financial success, as well as aided in
the literary work.
Mr. Malcolm Lockhart, too, has been untiring in his assistance, and has given the most valuable aid of
any Associate Editor on this, or any preceding edition. With these two assistants I undertook the responsi­
bility of producing this volume, and had it not been for the support given by them, my hopes and efforts
would have been in vain.
• As for the other Editors, I express my appreciation for their assistance, as limited as it has been.
To Mr. Murphey and Miss Smith I again extend my individual appreciation for the aid given in this
publication.
I wish in conclusion to extend thanks to Messrs. Foote & Davies for their patience, uniform kindness,
and courtesy.
