PREFACE.

THE CIRCUMSTAXCKS under which this volume ..1 the Ti-kka Maki.v: is edited (Hffer from those surrouiKUnfj all iire\iiius edilii ins of thi> Annual. This year the L'niver- sity of Maryland ])asscs the ( )iie Hundredth .MiiesioiK- on the course of her hon- ored career. .\nd so the ivlitors of this book desire that it sliall he distinctively a Centen- nial Issue.

It shall he our i)ur])ose t<i c<intrast the wurk. conditions, and aim of the I'niversity as it is today with the Liiiversity as it was in "ye olden days." llence th<ise who scan these pagfes will not find this edition merely a pictiu'e of I'nixersity life, hut will find also herein de- picted some of the adxanced chantjes in the various departments of our institution.

TiCKU-X .\I.\Ri.i;. I'.tiJV. then will find a welcome at the hand^ of the many who ha\e toiled, day after day. within these honored walls for that prize, so laboriously won and so highly a])])reciated — the I)i])loma. .\nd so we feel conhdi-nt that any .Mumnu^ \Jio lakes time to read (and we l)elie\e all will I these pages will leel that such time has heeii si)ent pleasantly and i)rofital)ly. .And ere he has ])erused the contents herein, he will he viewing the many ])ictures hanging on memory's wall, and in fancy he will he again jjassing through the old historic halls of Alma .M.iter. ami like a flash these words will illuminate his vision — '"Thou art a ntihle institution."

It has been said that "hooks are schools." In many res])ects il is true. .\t least it is hardly jjossible for one to secure a more natural picture, in all its phases, than is portrayed in the average College .\nniial. With this idea — the portrayal of C'ollege Life — in mind, this book is published. It is hoped that it may interest not oid\ those who ha\e been ])rivi- leged to experience such a life, but likewise any who may be desirous to drink at tiie fount of ])rofessional life; and last, but not least, to invite the attention of those persons who are interested in the history and ])rogress of an honored and wcirth\ educational centre.

I'erhaps within these covers will be found ideas, some sa\(iring of sweetness and vice versa, to the present students of our I'niversity. If such is so. we ask you. readers, not to take everything that is said too much in earnest. If yon hapi>en to be a target for our non-professional iuinior and feel that you are "hit" hard, then carry \onr mark gracefully.

and renieml)er the other fellow may be in the same half-sad, half-happy plight; feel there is nothing sai<l l)ut in jovial comradeship, and bear in mind we all are "good fellows together."

As an Editorial Board we wish to offer no apologies for anything that may be consid- ered a defect in this book. Yet we do feel that we have the right to ask you to consider the many difficulties that have hampered us as an amateur staff'; remember, also, it is no trifling- task to procure the necessary amount of fit material for these pages, ^^'ith such con- sideration on }-our ]:)art, kind reader, we expect only fair and lenient criticism. Again, re- member that this Annual is not supposed to represent only the fertile minds of those chosen as Editors, rather it is to be the product of the student body. Hence it can only be of merit in proportion to their effort.

We wish to extend our most hearty thanks for and appreciation of much valuable mate- rial from friends not directly connected with the Staff.

As Editors, we are wiser today than we were yesterday. Naturally we feel we could edit another volume better than we have this one, which is our first and also our last.

This edition of Terra Mari.E is now public propert}'. Our results are at your mercy. If we have failed or succeeded to interest you is not for us to judge, but for you to say. In either instance, our only excuse for having undertaken what was almost an endless — and sometimes a thankless- — task, is "College Spirit" born of loving gratitude to our Alma Mater— the University of Maryland.

The Chair of Medicine in the University of Maryland.

t^

Samuel C. Cukw, M.D., Professor of the P ractiee of Medicine.

AT THE foundation of the School of Medicine in the University of Maryland one hundred years ago the first physician appointed to the chair of Practice was Dr. George Brown, who was born in Ireland in the year 1755, and who in 177!) obtained his medical degree at the University of Edinburgh, which was then, as it has continued to be, a famous seat of medi- cal learning, largely through the great reputation of the Munros, who were known successively as Primus, Secundus and Tertius, and who were followed by other teachers of distinguished ability down to John Hughes P>ennett and George Balfour of our own day.

In 178;} Dr. Brown emigrated to Baltimore, where he attained great success as a practitioner, and where he was appointed to the chair of Medicine in this school at its foundation in 1S07, and was president of its Board of Regents until 181 :i.

Dr. Brown was the grandfather of the late George William Brown, Chief Judge of the Supreme Bench of this city, and at one time an instructor in the School of Law in our Univer- sity, and he was the great-grandfather of my friend, .\rthur George ISrown, one of the most prominent members of the Bar of Baltimore at present, whose hereditary connection by this two-fold tie with the University of Maryland is, I am sure, a source of gratification to others of his friends, as well as to myself.

Dr. Brown, though appointed to the chair of Practice, did not enter upon its duties, but re- signed the position almost immediately and was succeeded in it by Dr. Nathaniel Potter, who was thus the first actual or active incumbent of the chair, which he filled from 1807 to 184;{, the year of his death. I have no personal recollection of him, but there are two things which, when I follow Prospero's counsel and look into "the dark backward and abysm of time." are among the very earliest engraven upon the tablet of my memory. One is the solemn tolling of bells which, on inquiring what it meant, I was informed, being then a little child, was for the death of the first President Harrison, who died, it will be remembered, just one month after his inauguration. The other record upon the tablet is that of someone at my home, I know not whom, uttering the words, "Dr. Potter is dead." These two events of the long past have no con- nection with each other, except the fact that each is the record of the termination of a life.

Although, as stated, I have no remembrance of having ever seen Professor Potter, his face is yet familiar to me, as it is to others now living, from the portrait of him which for many years has hung in the Faculty room of the School of Medicine. The attitude in which he is represented in the picture is that of a scholar holding in his hand a volume, which was one of his own works, "Potter on Contagion," as is shown in the picture. Now it is most interesting

to see that ill tliat bniik. a copy of wliidi is in our i.ilnary and uliicli was pmhal)!) the autlior's favorite anion},' his writings, he maintains the non-coiitaj^ious character of yellow fever, a disease with which lie was very familiar, for it had prevailed in Ijaltimore more than once during his l)rofessi(>nal life. It is especially interesting to find that in sn])])iirt nf his opinion he brought forward the same kind of evidence which was adduced by the L'liited States Army Yellow Fever Commssion. a> given in iluir report in 19iil : the evidence being the application of hand- kerchiefs and other fninilos which h;i(l been kept in contact with yellow fever iiatients, to others not laboring under the disease, with the result that it was not communicated to them. And tliiis he anticipated what has of late years been fully established by the labors of Dr. Walter Reed, Dr. James Carroll, Dr. .\risiiiles Agramonte and that noble martyr to science and to humanity. Dr. Jesse W. Lazear, a name tn lie s])oken with reverence, for it is haloed with a martyr's crown.

'Piiis anticipatiiin of the truth i^. I think, a nmsl interesting fact in the histury of this school and nf medicine.

'Pile next incumlieiil nf the chair nt Practice wa^ Hr. I'.lisha llartlett, nf .Massachusetts, who was eiecled tn it early in ISM. and whn Jiad had e.\|iiTieiK-e a^ a teacher nf medicine in several schnnis. thi' ia>t nf wliicli was the 'rraiisylvania l"ni\ersit\ . in which he resigned his position to acce])t till' call tn I'lallinmre. Of liini 1 have a faint, shadnwy recnlleclinii. I can recall, ami yet but dimly, his tall fnnn and his striking intellectual cnunieiuince. lie was a medical ]>hiln-,n|)her nf admiralile rcasniiing ])nwers and high allainnients. His treatise on the "Fevers nf the I'liiteil States." first piihlislied in isl"^, shiAild be in the library of every medical scholar, fnr it entitles him to a place aiiKiiig tlin>e great wnrkers who were engaged in differentiating frnin each nther the varinus fnnns nf febrile disease, a ])lace with Louis, of Paris, and Sir Wil- liam Jenner, nf l.nndmi. and (lerhard, nf Philadel|>liia. and James Jackson, Jr., of Boston.

I'rofessnr Martlett's ]ihiln>nphical works art alsn nf great value, his ■'Philosophy of Medi- c;il SciiMuw"' )iulilisluMl in is I I, ;tiiil his "In(|uiry Intn tin- Degree nf (,'ertainty in Medicine," in ISIS. ^ :

It was said by Dr. ( )liver Wendell 1 Inlines that liartlett's ".Medical I'hikisophy" is as re- markable fnr elegance of style as for liberal and genial spirit and philoso]ihic breadth of view. ' )iie ])assage 1 can recall as having impressed itself n]>nn my youthful memory and imagination IniiL; \ears ago. The author is drawing a contrast between the various forms of charlatanry, which from time In time seek to rival medical science < n the one hand, and legitimate, scien- tific medicine nii the nther. He likens them res])ectively tn twn kinds of illumination; in the one there is a nnise. a rush, a burst iiit(^ a myriad of coruscations which are soon extinguished, leaving behind them an obscuring clnnd of smoke, which jiarts and is scattered, and these are his words: "Courage, my friends, look up and there looking down upon us with their dear old smile of afifectionate recognition, undimmed in their brightness and unchanged in tlieir loveliness. the ever-watchfid stars." Tlieir light rejiresents scientific medicine.

Ill ISli; Professor P.artlett. in failing health, resigned his chair and was succeeded in it by Dr. William Power, a native of this city, who hatl taken his degree of .\.V>. at Vale in 18:?2. and nf M.D. at this school in '[H'^■>. and he was thus the first .Mumnus of the scliool to occupy the chair of Practice in it. After his graduation here, he jjiirsued his medical studies in Paris, un- der that brilliant cnrps i<i teachers, consisting of i.onis, .\ndrae, (irisoUe, P.arth, and the great

10

patliologist, Cruveilhier. Of these, some had passed away when I was myself studying in Paris, twenty-five years later; but Grisolle and Barth, then old men, were still giving valuable and ef- fective instruction, and Cruveilhier, having retired from his chair, could be seen, setting an ex- ami)]e of devotion, t)n his way every morning to the services of his church.

Wlien Dr. Power returned to LJaltimore in 1S40 lie was known as a proficient in ausculta- tory diagnosis in which he had been well trained by Louis, and he was among the first to practice and teacli that art and science here.

The story is told that once when a resident of Baltimore, suiifering from some trouble of the chest, went to Paris to consult Lewis, he was asked by that eminent physician from what part of America he came, and when he answered "from Baltimore," "Why, then," said Louis, "do you come all the way to Paris to consult me whea you have William Power in Baltimore?" Such was the impression which the pupil had made upon the teacher. I have a clear recollection of Professor Power, although his connection with this LTniversity ceased before I began the study of me(licine. I can recall his intellectual face, "sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought," and with that malady, judmonary tuberculosis, to which he fell a victim when still comparatively young in his professional life, for he was only in his thirty-ninth year when he died. It is worthy of note that one who was so active in promoting- the study and practice of ausculation, should have died of the same disease and nearly at the same age as Laennec, the great medical ])hil(isopher and discoverer, as he might be called, of auscultatory diagnosis. As a teacher, Professor Power was a strenuous and faithful worker, admired and honored by his students, and when laboring imder the distressing conditions of his malady, constant dyspnoea and recur- ring hemorrhages, he still continued to meet his classes and to impart instruction until in 1852 he was compelled to abandon the unequal contest and to resign his chair : his death occurring on the l.'ith nf August in that year.

.\nd here let me depart for a moment from the chronological urder t<i ])ay a brief tribute to nnc wlio was allied by affinity to I'rofes.sor Power, and was taught by him: I refer to that most accomplished physician and most admirable man, Charles Frick, who, though he never occupied the chair of Practice in this school, was engaged in clinical teaching here and would certainly liave succeeded to the chair had his life been prolonged. For he was skillful and instructive as a clinician, and if I may modify a classic phrase, "omnium consensu capax docendi." He was my friend as well as my teacher and to this day, though nearly forty-seven years have passed since his death, the lessons of professional learning which I derived from him recur to my mind. The way in which Professor Frick's life ended from devotion to a suiifering fellow creature in the lowest walk in life is well known to many here, and it illustrates those words which were uttered by the divinest lips, "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends."

When the chair of Practice became vacant in 1S.12, by the death of Professor Power, one was appointed to the place in regard to whom it is not for me to ofifer any words or any thoughts of my own. But how can I omit entirely from the category which I have been surveying one who gave the best years of his life and the richest stores of his learning and experience to the service and welfare of this school, and who, as my most faithful guide and as my wisest coun- selor was by me honored and beloved? For many years there had been a close and cor-

11

dial friciidsliii) aiul affection between liiin to wlioin 1 refer and Professor Xatlian Ryno Sniitli, that prince among tlie surgeons of his day, who liad known many men in many places and of various attainments and characters. When this friendship was sundered by death, Professor Smith said to me. "Among all whom 1 have known in my whole life, 1 have never known a wiser or a better man than your father." I add no words of my own, but 1 trust tliat I do not violate (jroper feeling in presenting a >entimeiU which was uttered by him of whom I write befure an assemblage in which there were many members of the medical profession:

"There are other paths which lead more certainly to distinctions, honors and affluence than dnes medicine. There are other professions wliich may be more exempt from cares and dis- a])i)ointments. Put where shall we find a pursuit more favorable than ours to the develo|)ment and imjirovement of the best faculties of our intellectual and moral nature? Where shall we find an occupation for the few and fleeting years of life more conducive to ])rogress in wisdom anil virtue? To grow old engaged in the acquisition cjf knowledge was the wish of the wisest of the ancients. The sentiment is ])urified and elevated by referring it to a just and adeipiate motive. To grow old in the study of science for the purpose of doing good to mankind is a desire worthy, not only of the wisest, but of the best and lK)liest of men."

\e.\t in succession to the chair came one in 1M()4 who was well kiK)wn to the |)rofession. and known only to be honored and esteemed. I refer, as you know, to Professor Richard Mc- Sherry. who brought to the duties of his post an excellent training of mind and the fruits of large op])ortunities for observation in civil and military practice, for he had held the position f)f surgeon in both branches of the public service, llis lectures were accurate in thought, scholarly in theii' structure and always fraught with valuable lessons which were deeply impressed u])on his students.

.■\t his dcatii in IS.s."). mie was called ti> his |)lace whu can say only tiiis, that none can bi- more conscious than he is himself of the imperfections and deficiences in tile way in which the duties of that ])lace have been performed, but as the time <lraws near at which the chair will again become vacant, a time which cannot be long deferred, he asks that he may be allowed to plead simply this, that he has striven to do his duty.

W'liilst ])n)i,rn()sticati<)n of future event- is exceedint;!}- uncertain. Mime tliin.ijs have been accomplished within the past t\vel\' months, and certain others, of a se(piential character, are in contemplation. First of all. the Les,^islature at its last session ap])roi)riate(l $(iip.(i()(i fnr the |)ur])ose of buildiu'^ an addition to the University Ilosi)ital.

."Secondly, the I'ac'ilty of I'liysic ]iurchased last sumuier four dwellin.ijs on Cirecnc street at the northwest corner of l.nmlianl sireel. at a cosi of S-.M.imiii, It is projosed to tear down these houses and to erect a hands, nne dormitory with all modern convenier.ces. where students can obtain comfortable rooms at a moderate expense. This buildintif will also cost about $l("),(l(i(i

Thirdly, the chnrch and parsonaije ])ro])erty at the southeast corner of (ireene and Lorn bard streets, which was purchased several years ago, but was not accepted on account of a defeci in the title, has had its title made valid by the Court of Aiqieals and has jjassed into tlie ])osses- sion of the l\e,i.;ents. It is not yet determined what u-e the church is to be put to: proiiably the ^■. M. C. .\. will be housed there and the Library of the .Medical School, whilst the main audi- torium may be kejjt for a lecture and examination hall.

The i)arsona,i,a- is to be used, for a while at least, as an annex to tiie nurses' di)rniilory.

These are the only l)uildin>r o])erations that are under consideration at present, and the re- sources of the institution will be taxed very severely to brint; them to a successful completion.

In an educational way. the affiliation with St. John's C"olKi..;e. at .Xmiajiolis. has been effected, and the authorities of the different departments are enija-ed with plans to brin^; the courses ot instruction into harmonious relations with each other.

The demand of the times is for better prelim inars Iraitiini; of those wh.i desire to enter thv nieilical |irofession. and it is hojied that the union with St. Johu's will promote this object.

l)k. I. !■;. ATKINSON.

The death of Isaac Edmondson Atkinson. AI.D., at his residence, in Balti- more, on November 24, 190G, from pneumonia, removes from this community one who held the highest rank in the medical profession of Maryland and a most distinguished position among the Alumni of this University.

He was born in Baltimore on January 23, 1846, of ancestry who came from the Eastern Shore, and he held the tenets of the Society of Friends. He was educated at the School of Arts and Science of this University and obtained his medical degree from the same source in 18Go, when he was only twenty years of age.

He served his early apprenticeship in the General and Special Dispensaries, and for some years devoted himself with enthusiasm to diseases of the skin. He was recognized as a national authority upon this subject, and in 1887 was elected President of the American Dermato logical Association. He held many other offices of honor, among which were the Presidency of the Clinical Society and of the Medical and Chirurgical Faculty, Consulting Physician of the Johns Hopkins Hospital and various chairs in this University, viz: Dermatology, 187y-'81; Pathology, 1881-'86 ; Materia Medica, 188G-1900. He also held the Deanship of the Faculty of Physic from 1890-'93. He contributed largely to the development of the Library of the Medical and Chirurgical Faculty, and was a member for many years of the State Lunacy Commission. In 1883, during the smallpox epidemic, he was chosen to superintend the movement for its sup- pression. He contributed many articles to medical journals and was one of the authors of Pepper's System of Medicine.

Dr. Atkinson was one of the leading consukants of Baltimore. He was well equipped for professional duty, his knowledge being exact and thoroughly up-to-date. He possessed a quick appreciation and a strongly judicial mind, great self-possession, a cheerful serenity of temperament, and a gentle and attractive mapner. These qualities secured for him the confidence and affection of a large circle of friends. He was one of our most expert diagnosticians, and used the resources of the Materia Medica with skill and confidence.

The solicitude shown regarding him during his last illness was universal, and a multitude attended his funeral services from Emmanuel P. E. Church.

•■}Ie is not dead, but rests, to live, As long as loving memory can Keep green a name that strove to give Its best alike to God and inan."

"THE HOUSE MEN."

■'Fdrtuiif kiKicks lint oiicc. yv\ <ili! tlio X:\U\ 'I'liat when il UiKirlcs. it UiKu-ks t<io late."

BY THE FATES it was never decreed we shuald write tiie House history. In the perusal ot our arduous task we humbly admit a misplaced confiilence, \et not wishing to fill the crowded ranks of those who are willing only to eke out their miserable existence by sapping ihe life and substance of others whiie givuig nothing in return — we, imbued with the spirit of the widow of old, contribute our mite !

From our earliest connection with the Old L'niversity we yearned for our advent into the house as a boy his Xmas morn. And when about June the first we learned that the dignity of House Men was thrust upon us we were both pleased and chagrined — chagrined at our utter incompetence ; but this was temporary, as we soon learned we knew nothing and were expected to know less. For about tine week we were placed in a very unstable eciuilibrium. obeying implicitly the numerous wishes of our new residents, many of whom ever warned us of our attitude to the nurses.

And it came to pass in the year of (Jur Lord nineteen hundred and six and the sixth month and the tenth day of the month, that there were gathered around the hospital men from all lands. And upon this same month and the same day of the month, about the going down of the sun, according to the decree of the Most High, all were assembled together to hear the expounding of the law. And Dr. Shipley arose and taught them, saying: "Blessed is the man that walketh not into the hospital by way of the front steps, nor talketh to the nurses, nor goeth out with the nurses, nor loiters in the halls. But his delight is in the work of the hospital and in its welfare doth he meditate day and night." Then with the com])lacency and dignity which so pervades the man he tenderly withdrew from his pockets some daintly arranged slips and informed us we should now draw for our rooms. With listless impatience did we examine the outcome of our lot, and were sore dismayed when he explained this was a sjxcial code of his own and he knew each and every chance, thus obviating dilemmas of previous years ; for many were our schemes concocted for desirable rooms. After he had thus sjxjken he broke bread with us and we departed, each to examine the four bare, whitewashed walls, our alx)de for the next twelve months.

Things for awhile progressed nicely, even though .some did insist on putting on lajjaratomy stockings in "D.," wiping their faces with sterile gloved hands when on operations, yet it was no worse than one of our austere residents cooling his sterile instruments under the water tap. So why be disheartened ?

Among our number was one tender youth of city-born air reared in that mighty municipality. S\Imar, Md. Rubber heels were to him a gift sent by the gods, for with noiseless tread could he sliower his amorous smiles upon those entrancing beauties fashioned from the twelfth rib of man. Daily did he win fresh laurels. Soon begun to oscillate between the operating rooms and the linen room ; in fact, one might have supposed he was custodian of the water cooler. Like a tactful general not one egress of escape did he aTlow. So one evening when the heavens above and the earth beneath were enrobed in their greatest splendor he suggested to this "Aeri" creature a quiet evening together would be a ])leasure. .^ very formal gathering was agreed upon. Beau

41

liriuninel rcturnecl lionie early. Then and llierc. f^oiille reader, developments ceased, and I sup- pose it will ever remain a mystery.

In the sainted history of the past a house warniinj.;- lia^ ever heen considered a sine qua non. .\nd not wishing to relegate ancient customs, such an event took place one evening early in July. The spacious arena situated between the Lithuanian sweat-shop and the student building, ex tending backward as far as Franklin's dead hous°, was brilliantiy illuminated by Japanese lantern-. I'lom ininierous kegs floweil foaming Budweiser and Anhcuser-Bush. Those whose youthful tastes had not yet succumbed to the seductions of cruel Bacchus satiated their thirst by copiou. draughts of sarsaparilla and sweetened water ; but I regret to .say that class were few, such being drunk principally by the residents. Sandwiches and such were in abundance, lively music by a well-traineti orchestra, and thirty more jovial faces could not be found. Mid the mirth time sped on, and, as always, time will tell. In some there was noted a loss of equilibrium ; others, half dazed, seemed well content to spill their lager over themselves and their equally unfortunate neighbors. Lcgg ventured a taste of the sparkling wine, Lynn talking loud and must be heard, Joyce "pickled." At a late hour we had to disband : some to their rooms, many to folloiv the dictates of an elastic conscience, — no operations posted for the next day.

Early in July, Bird, who had won great renown in medical circles, was hurrrie<lly >uinmoned to attend a patient on East Lombard Street. On arrival noted ]«ticnt's face markedly swollen, tension great, diffuse inflammatory redness with well-marked zigzag outline. After entering fully into predisposition, constitutional symptoms and palpitation of the inflamed area, lie returned a sadder but no wiser man. On his visit the following day a doctor from the Maternity was called in as consulting physician. ( )n casual glance this sage pronounced it a typical case of erysipelas. Now when Dr. Shipley heard of Bird's gross mi.stake. he was sore tried, for if one thing he did think wc would recognize it was ihis disease. Of course, now Jake was a menace to an\ well-regulated hospital, so accordingly got two weeks' honorable discharge — tlie first in our history. But they say our Superintendent was very kind, as he told Bird if he must go out with lost his pocketbook the following week on a hillof thcni, at which McCutchen became envious and (he nurses for heaven's .sake keej) his hands off side far rLino\(.-d from city limits.

Being occujjied by the many cares of the Blue Drug Store, McElroy was a little late in en- tering our midst. Accustomed to the Sunny South, he expected to find everything submissive to his will. On arriving in "C>" one morning dressings were a little slow in forthcoming, at which he remarked his displeasure. Then and there was a rupture of a friendship of no great magnitude, Mac being a little slow at speech, was soon (jut;lassed. The lady's eyes flashed with rage, and with emphatic voice exclaimed "Vou are no gentleman!" At this sudden outburst Mac beat a hasty retreat to the laboratory ; mentally obtunded, asking jirivately of every one if they consid- ered him a gentleman — the matter was never satisfactorily decided.

Kighton, familiarly known as "Ilalsted," early in the summer received an Urgent request to take charge of a lucrative practice in Western Maryland for the hoi months His success was un- paralleled. The Doctor's practice increased ten per cent, during his slir>rt stay, and it was like leaving home to tear himself away from his patients. Why, now surgery and jiractice to him are as a familiar song. Holt a mere reference boik. Uf course, he was a little impatient when Dr. Mitchell spent sd nnicli time un the exantlicmattnis fevers and tersely expressed it by telling

42

liim he knew everything he had lectured upon. Soon after his return in the fall, on making the rounds in the hospital (Dr. Shipley abroad), a pleasure party was decided upon. Legg, Frankhn, Bowen, McElroy and Righton m,et in a secluded portion of the town and having a few minutes beiore the more interesting members of the party arrived decided to get a cup of joy. For more minute details see Legg. At the stroke of time six more happy faces were now added to the company. To properly adjust matters, there being an extra lady, they decided to draw for their lots on arrival at Bay Shore Park. In this raffle Mac drew a double, but being so enraptured by his first chance, he seized this one and hurriedly the tall couple wended their way through the crowd, returning in the late evening. Miss — a dislocated finger, McElroy bespattered, having fallen in the mud.

"Shorty" Landers and "Lew" \'ogel, the real doctors of the house, "Shorty" finding surgery more promising as practiced in South and East Baltimore, devoted his energies most solely to this field. His knife and lotions could alleviate all ills. Fees for major operations minimimi, — always collected in advance. Used unabsorbable suture material, which to remove would charge twice first cost. If patient now objected to fee he would carefully explain to him how his symptoms were very suggestive of pyo-salpingitis or telangectasis as a probable complication, at which the patient would cry out in fright, "Oh, Doctor, you don't think I will get that?" Then the patient placing a ten dollar bill in "Shorty's" hand, the Doctor would assure the frantic man he would avert all dire consequences and already he was gaining a good color and pulse was of fine tone. To set a fractured leg two dollars, to remove the cast when once on ten dollars. "Shorty" is a good bluflf, but Dr. Hemmeter called it January 31. \^ogel, on the other hand, is medically in- clined, owns a drug store, and is a brother of Walter, "what's studying pharmacy." Writes his own R, sends them to his own store and Walter does the rest. "Lew" is very popular, has a commanding and dignified air, so for this reason he was unanimously elected Sheriff of the House ; as to how efficiently he has enforced the laws of .said office, see Roop. Vogel says he has tried hard to civilize Adler, but acknowledges defeat. Can't get Sid out of bed before 9 A. M.; thinks he stays in bed to fool his stomach out of a breakfast.

Herman and Joyce often furnished us with delightful music, but oh! these Sunday evenings when we were homesick and wished for a good square meal and could not even sleep for those plaintive notes ! How we did wish the strings were cut. Then those winter nights when we could not sleep owing to cares and yet disturbed by hideous noises we could not blame Gross and Jamison.

Daniels, Hiatt, Righton, L>'on and \'ogel, the clamorous society men of our tribe, have won great distinction 'mid elite circles. Coming events casting their shadows before them, so they made great preparations for Xmas festivities. Righton, to start things in the right direction, procured a very dainty pair of dancing slippers — ladies" size. The others rapidly followed in his wake. Lyon, unable to procure suitable size in town, of course had a pair made. Other articles of simi- lar nature were in abeyance for the Nurses' Ball. Vogel gave us all to understand that when the orchestra struck up "Waltz Me Around Again, Louie," a mad rush for his noble personage would

be made, but from this bevy of beauty he was going to select Miss R , and with stalwart arm

around her graceful waist, he and this angelic creature were going to lead the Cotillion to the con- sternation of all. But Miss F., having an inkling of such a forecast, dispelled all vain illusions by

43

circiilatiiij; thf rcpnrt. Stiuk'iit^ luni est. Thus anotlicr foiul hopu bliglitcd. I'lit Lew, kiunving no defeat, has a piaiu), guitar, mandoHti and vio'.in at his (.iwn home and tells us of many pleasant evenings he and "our"' fair sex have s])ent.

Xou I'loljbv Warren, i)ne of our recent acquisitions, has come ra|)idly to the front. Uringan I'". 1'. \ . (lis])ensarv laws are to him unknown. Coming in one eve when all peace-abiding citizens should have long ere sought their downy couches , he. mt feeling inclined to climb a long flight of winding stairs, sought the caressing arms of Morpheus in Gross" bed. Xow Gross, hearing of I'.obhv's not treating his little trundle with jjropcr respect and considering such a usurpment at his rights, immediately ajjplied for a .safer lock and key, and to ])rocure same had necessarily to nar- rate details, thus ])lacing "Senator" in rather an embarrassing position.

.Mcose. our real turfman, is intensely interested in the Ponies. The Daily Tclcgraiii is to him a Koran. With ficndi.sh delight does he vatch each maneuver of the Criste and .\ste stables and to a financial nicety has he this intricate jjroiiiem .solved as exemplified by the fall meet — for further references see I'iggott. .\lso this noble Tar is well rounded, for to wine, woiuan and .song he sings his praises, and as a conse(|uence bends his knee to one of tho.se fair maidens, who for six months wore the cdnvvntinnal blue with us. and after three months of cares 'mid the chil- liren of Tavlor's H(:si)ital. tlu- nnl\- name sacred to her memory was that of "Mr. Moose."

Glidden, Perkins and Hates. Fox and Carpenter uphold our merit by hard study. For the con- sumi)ti()n of so nuich electricity and heat our gracious Faculty have conceived the idea of raising our rent. Man\- of us of the boys are a little leary : have surmised they are like some of our predecessors, not letting their left hand know what their right hand doelh.

.■\rgabrite and lienson. Keaton ;ind I.\nn arc- reail\ and willing at all tlims to sound the first horn. .Argie at the first of the year was one of the promoters of our social game, but owing to dire consequences i four nines l(X)king bad in facing four jacks), gave u\) the niidniglit sport. Keaton was loath to c|uit. but owing to a sudden breach of friendship .between him and our sick Southerner. McF.Iroy. he was forlxide entering Room .\o. 1. Now can anyone guess what Dr. Shipley meant when he asked "I'.enny I'.oy" if he was studying hard? Franklin is looking much better since he left Lady Lewis': the jjoor boy was leading a strenuous life, but we notice n marked atroi)hv of his right arm ; also they say the young lady's waist is no larger. Lynn is still throwing l)ou(|Ucts at the nurses and with Latimer': finding waxy casts.

Kembler and Roo]) s]und much of their time administering to the ills of outside ])atients ; but all of us can't look professional and only Kemhler can sjieak "."^lave.''

In the late January after the exciting scenes of a busy week the Mount \'crnon Brewery wagon was seen to stoj) in front of our door; two immense kegs were then rolled out and jilaccd in f)ur vestibule. .Ml were a tritle interested in itsmeaning. but no explanation was forthcoming. Strange to sav. the contents reniain;.'d unmolested all Saturday night and Sunday. Some sur- mised it was intended for the Lithuanians one drtor below. ( )thers. who are ever apt and quick at sohitions of such imjiort, said that the Hospital Staff in a]i])reciation of our competent, careful. I)ainstaking and impartial work had sent this as a token of their fellow feeling and gratitude. A spigot was immediately procured and liquid refreshments served in due order.

For such an expression of good feeling we wish to extend to the Hospital Staff our sincere thanks, and can only trust that the high intellectual attainments and moral suasion which so per- meates the House Men this \e;ir ma\ be handed down to House Men in time immemorial.

'^he Dream of the Senior <^ed.

'Twas a licauliful thoroughfare, handsome and

wide. With magnificent residences along citlier side- Set l)acl< from the sidewalk some iucnty-live

feet. Every porch, door, and window exquisitely

neat.

\ow Iialf way up that avenue grand.

The most beautiful home of them all did

stand ; 'Twas so stately a mansion of marble and

stone, That, compared with all others, it stood out alone.

'Twas as perfect a home as had ever been

seen In the City of Somewhere or elsewhere, I

ween, .And, best of all, it belonged to me. Who l)uilt it at the age of thirty-three.

.\nd now 1 am forty and just in my prime. I'm an M. D. for fair; you can see my sign On Prosperity Street any day in the week. Spring, summer, or autumn, or winter bleak.

1 know all about medicine ( see diploma from

college), . Anything I don't know is not rightly termed

"knowledge." .\fter playing four years on the "Varsity"

leven, r graduated in medicine in tlie Class of

Xaught Seven.

University of Maryland! my dear .\lma

Mater, Every day I was there I grew smarter and

smarter ; 1 learned about hygiene, prophylactics, and

dope. How to make a man well, or cause him lo

croak.

1 ha\e patients galore; they come by the score; Itvery hour of the day they knock at my door. For my fame has gone forth from land's end to land's end.

I ha\e patients who come in their automobiles, That anyone liroken in health I can mend.

While some come afoot, with shoes down at

the heels ; The rich and the poor alike seek my aid: For the poor 1 work gratis; for the rich I'm

well paid.

.\ patient comes now — he is ringing the bell; Me rings it so violently I'm sure he's not

well ; He is kicking and stami)ing. and calling my

name ; 1 nnist ope the door quickl\- and see if he'--

sane.

I rush to the door to open it wide. Intending to ask the patient inside, .\s file handle 1 turn, a kick makes the door

quake : \\"nh a' start 1 jump liackwaril. and hnd—

I'm awake !

What 1 .thought in m\ dream was my name

being called I'.y the man at the door who kicked, hollered,

and bawled. Was the voice of the "Prof" calling me to

recite ; lUit 1 heard not his question, so couldn'i

answer right.

For. sad to relate, his query was asked While 1 in the arms of Morpheus basked, .\ncl he never repeats a question, you know. So that when we don't know it we get a zero.

.Mas and alas, "things are not what they .seem." .\wakc, as I think of it, I see 'twas a dream, .\11 this glory of riches, and comforts, and ease, -\nd patients galore, with enormous big fees.

So my dream of the future is knocked in the head,

lUit I'll never gi\e up, but look forward in- stead

To this dream coming true, and some day \ou'll see

Oft the .spirit of ik-spair. Hut this ciilchcs droius th:it worry

Of the toil of life and eare; In the wheel of Fame and I'drtune,

Oft in its unvaried way. Ciinus the Ciain-Law of true promise

I"or the sold that strives each day.

.Now it elianKes. Look! I'.eliold him 1

Shines the "Star of i lope" supreme; Countless blessings for the toiler.

Sorrows few. to him may seem : h'nerKy denotes his standard,

'Pill his work on earth is done. 1 1 is reward in life is "Labor,"

Mis success in heaven is won.

In his pr.iyer, he lliaiil-s the h'alher

Who restoreth to the earth ( )iie possessed of all its sunshine.

One enjoying all his mirth I lis rcw.-ird is scattered farther

Than the East is from the West; I'.ul he iir.-iyeth to the Father

This appeals to all u ho journey

Oil the hard and liealeu sod. Whether pathways strewn with roses

Wait them as they daily trod. Or if when their days are numbered

.And the torch of life is o'er. They'll regret they sadly wasted

Talents then that are no more.

To a rest of endless sleep.

Yet it rises in the shade. Rich and beautiful, its colors.

Sing a song of lo\e. not strife.

O'er the bed he's slowly bending.

On his f,ice a (|uestioned look; Deep the furrows on his forehead.

Resolved, That we do hereby extend to his parents in their sore trial and bereavement our sincere, heartfelt sympathies, trusting that God in His boundless mercy may comfort them with the assurance that their boy now enjoys the presence of his Creator ; and be it finally

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY

A MKF^F. RECORD of passiiiij events can nut licconu' histnry until it is looked at through \_yx. tlu- telescope of years.

Scarcely can \vc realize tiiat four years have passed since we made our initial bow as fresh recruits <lestined to uphold the "Centennial I'anner" of the old I'niversity.

And yet it is l)ut yesterday, for what are four years in the boundless vista of the past? — that we entered the jjortals of the I'niversity of Maryland as a lartje Freshman Class, whose nieni- bers represented many States and several foreiiifn countries.

Our first duty as new students was a .self-imposed one. namely the adaptini,'' of ourselves t' the new, and in some ways startlinsf environments. To this desirable end the Sophomores re- lieatedly fjfTered a willinf^ hand pratis, which was the only thins we can remember tjettinff for nnthini;.

In the Lecture llall we were very kindly of l'ere<l sc.its in the " I'.ald- lieailed Kuw.'" but scarcely had we been seated when cries of "( )ut with the l-'reshman" and "Pass him uj)" \\ii\ heard from the Sophomores.

It was a sacl and pitiful sijjht to see the few of us, who had been so ini fortunate as to accept the kind invitation of our L'pper Classmen. — tossed from those front seats up the line, each Sophomore prabbiii}; and throwinsj us one row hi,i,dier. until we had reached the top, and thm jjivinp us a return trip on the same ticket.

Well! Well! maybe we won't remember tlmse first lectures at the Collet^e. or rather our first experiences with the Sophomores.

(A

Everything moved along smoothly until the announcement of the Freshman Class meeting was posted, when things awoke with a start and the clouds of war again quickly descended and overshadowed us.

Being an up-to-date Class, the first duty before us was to organize; so a meeting was. held for the election of ofificers. By posting a notice on the Bulletin Board that our Class meeting would be held October 19 at a certain hour and then meeting at an earlier date, we were success- ful in outwitting our Upper Classmen. At this meeting temporary officers were elected, but at a later date another meeting was held, which resulted in the following permanent officers: Presi- dent, Albert H. C.\rroll ; \'ice-President, Harry Y. Righton ; Secretary, James H. Bates; Treasurer, Gilbert J. Morgan; Historian, Frederick C. Heise; Orator, Frank L Lynn ; Artist, E. S. Perkins. At this meeting the design for the Class pin was selected.

Would that I could go more in detail, that I might give a fuller description of the many events held during our first year in medicine. I feel assured, however, that no member of the Class could well afford to allow any of the many pleasant events which transpired during that year to slip his memory, so I think it will suffice to mention just a few of most note, one of which was the Banquet tendered us by our honored President, on March 17, at the Northampton Hotel. That everybody enjoyed themselves is needless to say, for when the parting hour arrived each and every man reluctantly left this scene of Bohemian festivity proclaiming Carroll the Prince of Good Fellows.

Realizing that the Class of 1907 was to go down in history, we demonstrated early in its existence to the Faculty that ours was no ordinary Class.

The manner in which we finished our requirements the first year clearly showed them we were "there with the goods." It is a matter of record that we made a very creditable showing, and the Class of 1907 ended its Freshman year in a veritable blaze of glory.

We began the second year of our existence early in October, 1904. and with but few excep- tions, the entire Class returned, our loss being more than counterbalanced by the influx of new members. With a fixedness of purpose as to the object and ends to be attained, we resolved to duplicate, and, if possible, surpass, our record of the previous year.

The first business of importance was the election of officers. Owing to the absence of our President, who had matriculated at the University of Edinburgh for his Sophomore year, his chair was filled by Vice-President Harry Y. Righton. The following officers were elected. President, Harry Y. Righton; Vice-President, J. B. Piggott ; Secretary, J. Herbert B.xtes; Treasurer, Gilbert J. Morgan; Editor, F. H. HeisE; and Historian, R. C. Bowen.

Then came the annual lesson to the Freshmen, and that we made a lasting impression upon them they can truthfully vouch for. After corralling them, they were marched in bur- lesque uniforms through the thoroughfares of this dear old Monumental City. Every now and then they were compelled to do the hop-skip-and-jump act on the Keith plan, the only difference was that they were in the "open-air circuit."

At 4.30 P. M. their performance ended. Seasoned with plenty of mud and water, they trudged homeward to do the disrobing act, feeling very much like a man on his first sea voyage-- "he is not interested in fish culture, nor has he a grudge against the ocean, but simply feels he must give up."

At a meeting of the Class held October 7, it was decided that a theatre party be given at

65

Ford"s Opera House on October 10, and on that date our august body wiuiessed a most enjoy- able performance of "Red Feather."

Now I might go on at length and tell of the many other events of this year's work, but, un- fortunately, space does not permit of such minute description ; therefore I must ask my comrades to reflect and recall the many pleasant hours and good times spent as Sophomores.

After a very pleasant vacation we returned once more to resume our work, this time as Juniors. The interesting past presses so clearly upon our sight that it seems still a portion of the present, and hard, indeed, is it to realize that two years have passed since we first sat under the Old Dome.

On arriving in the fall to take up our third-year work, our dear old College gave us a most cordial welcome and. extending her hands, said, "Co up higher and be my Junior Guests."

This stimulating action on the part of our Faculty and College, inspired us with new energy and a spirit of enthusiasm.

Early in October we assembled to elect officers for our Junior year. The victorious candi- dates were: President, O. P. Arg.vbrite ; Vice-President, R. C. Fr.anklin'; Secretary, T. E. J.\mison; Treasurer, Benj.\.min Be.vson ; and Artist. E. S. Perkins. At a meeting held a few weeks later, Albert II. Carroll was elected Class Editor and Alexa.vder Mitchell, Historian.

The work in our Junior year was new to us, and although in some ways more difficult, it was for the most part practical and consequently more interesting. We were now beginning to ap- ply the knowledge we had acquired during our first two years and before long a bright light was shining, making clear to us the subjects which at first had seemed a mystery.

On December 18, 1905, we laid work aside for one evening and attended a performance at Ford's Opera House, the attraction being Raymond Hitchcock in "The Galloper." This evening being set aside as "Maryland Night," the theatre was artistically decorated, and many of the fra- ternities having chapters at the University occupied boxes.

But the time for examination was rapidly ai)i)roaching; Christmas holidays had come and gone, and before we realized it we were packing up our belongings ready to leave for home, to recuperate and prepare for the arduous duties of that crowning year of College life — the Senior.

Praying pardon for employing such a hackneyed phrase as "last, but not least," the chronicle begins with that cver-to-be-reniembered and hotly contested election of officers. It was an exciting and neck-to-ncck race. R. C. Fr.xnklin, of Georgia, was finally elected President, while "LouiE " VoGEL was elected "Sheriflf of the House" and Sergeant-at-.'\rms of the Class by fifty-three ma- jority. The other ofiiccrs elected were: \'ice-President, J. C. Ke.\ton : Secretary, H. V. H.\r- B.AUGii ; Treasurer, J. L. V^alentini ; Editors, T. H. Legg and S. H. .■Kdler; Chairman E.xecutivc Committee, E. A. L.\nders; Historian, A. C. Mitchell: Prophet. .\. J. G. Gable: and Artist, E. S. Perkins. Alexander C. Mitchell being unable to fill the office entrusted to him, Andrew W. O'MallEy was elected to the vacancy. Another chair open for re-election was that of Prophet, so caused by the lamented death of A. J. G. Gable, G. D. Moose being elected to act in his stead. Mr. Gable's death, though not unexpected, wa:. quite a shock to his class- mates, possessing as he did the esteem and respect of not only his classmates, but also the Fac- ulty and everyone with whom he came in contact.

Apropos of that literary anvil hours, to be offered by our learned Projihet, Mr. G. D. Moose, we would like to say, with his permission, a fewwords on "our own hook."

Viz : Interrogation with a great big ? mark.

How did Oscar W. King like the hosiery (roommate brand, something new,) on a certain auspicious occasion, and did he ever peruse Sardou's "Scrap of Paper?" If not, why not? And does echo answer Hke Foe's "Raven," — Nevermore? Poor, poor King!!

And, by the way, who would have thought that little "Claudie" Flowers was so much in- terested in mechanics (kitchen variety). Yet, strange as it may appear 'tis so, and we state it upon absolute authority. Now, Claude, why did you take up medicine when mechanical de- vices seem so much more in your line? Don't deny it, because you were seen with the goods swaying from curb to doorstep, a most peculiar form of walk, and a denial, well, there would be nothing to it, old chap ; so look pleasant, take your dose, and perhaps you'll get over it. I said perhaps.

We were amazed that Dr. Nathan Winslow should have questioned the reliability of Vogel's statement regarding the treatment of CoLLE's fracture, knowing, as he does, that "Louie is the man what has a drug store, he is," and that everything said and done therein is par excellence.

Dr. Winslow should be careful that it does not occur again. Good morning, Mr. "Dr." VoGEL, do you use Malted Milk?

And regarding the pitiful plight of Jamison making desperate love to a hard and unfeeling radiator ! We weep for him and advise him to remember that an iron-hearted, ordinary, every- day bedroom heater has no respect or feeling for cuticle, no matter to whom it belongs.

However, we have been informed that during his stay in the liospital he received the very best of treatment from his training-school friends.

Several days afterward W. C. Lvon was found to be suffering with "nursitis" and was promptly removed, — from the Hospital.

When we entered this grand old University we came in pursuit of knowledge, firmly resolved not to be intimidated by any difficulties which might arise, and now by indomnitable perserver- ance, hard study and close observation of the works of others, who have gone before us, we are at last brought into the light of day, comprehensive in acquirements, fertile in resources, and with a superior knowledge of our chosen profession to enable us to leave the protecting arms of our Alma Mater and go forth into this wide and cheerless world with perfect confidence in our ability as Doctors of Medicine.

This great end we have most successfully accomplished, and now that the time comes for us to bid one another farewell and go our different ways we almost wish it were possible for us to be together for a longer time.

Soon the good old College days — the happiest in a man's life — will be ended, and it will re- main with us as full-fledged Doctors of Medicine to go forth alone, over the rough seas of life, and let us hope that we will find anchorage in the harbor of success.

In conclusion, I will say that we have the greatest possible respect and admiration for our beloved professors. We fully realize, and appreciate how faithfully and patiently they have taught us the principles of medicine, smoothing, as they did, the rough places in our course and

67

roughening up a little the seemingly smooth ones. Our ^incere w i^h is that thtir lives may be spared to see the fruits of our success.

The Class of 1907 will not prove a disappointment to them, and I hope w ill be the means of raising the already high standard of our Alma Mater.

The College history of the Class of 1907 is now cndt-d. and we must say farewell. How nnicli fif memory and hope is bound up in those two syllables, Fare — well! Faithfully shall we cherish the remembrances of our College and Class.

What is there of good that we do not heartily invoke for them both? We are drawn to- gether now as we have never been before, probably never again, and the last handshake has a new thrill in it. But the final hour has struck With changeless love for our Alma Mater, with steadfast loyalty to one another, with a heart bent on high things and broad enough for all. — so go we forth, and God speed.

SOME peoj)le accomplish much in a hmitcd amount of time, while others exist a hfetime and accomphsh httle, if anything, worthy of note. There is a maxim, as true as there are stars above, man only attains that amount of success equal to the amount of mental or physical energy expended. If this be true, how can one with poor imaginative powers, and no knowledge of the potential as well as the kinetic energy of some of the members of the Centennial Class, attempt to portray the brilliant future of the "Student Doctors." If there were only some liquid which one could sip and the mind then become conscious of the happenings of, say, only a few years hence, doubtless many of us would imbibe freely ; but, alas, such a substance is not known, and the best we can do is to consult the palmist, spiritualist, or phrenologist. I am neither, nor do I claim such distinction, and I can only record, in a brief wa\'. da\-dreams that I have had at odd moments regarding some of the men.

Borrowing the words of Mrs. Fay, the name of McElrov conies to me. In a few years he will become famous as the discoverer of the wonderful medicine, " LAX APU RG I A X A ," a medi- cine long desired by the profession, something soothing, tasteless, and non-irritating to mucous membranes. .\X last Mc. has found the ideal laxative, no longer does the once widely advertised Cascarets supply the irritable old maids and peevish men ; no longer does "Rhamnus purshiana" worry the student of Materia Afedica; no longer do we need Red Raven for high livers' livers, and the hale and heartv octogenarians who worked overtime writing testimonials for Lydia Pinkham's Comp. and Peruna are now singing the praises of IMcElroy's LAX A PU RG I A X A .

The Irish wit. "Shorty" L-Nnders. savs, "I was perfectly correct when I demanded work on the medical side. Surger\- makes me sick, and m\' start was made when I was posted in the medi- cal box and Ward H. Orthopredics, Diseases of Stomach, Nose and Throat, are only a waste of

time. General ^ledicine for mine. \\'hat the do we need with all this d stuff?"' And

when vou read his latest contribution to "The ]\Iedical World," entitled "Hot Air vs. Iron as Tissue

69

Builders," his real merits are realized. \'ow "Shorty" only smokes expensive cigars (six for five cents) and assumes his accustomed posture (Trendelenburg Position), the smoke curls more beau- tifully and he begins to dream, argue, and advise as of yore. He gives you the innocent ( ?) and truthful (?) countenance and exclaims, "In the Old Coimtrie we have nothing like that. ()h,no! It would not be permitted."

Jamison gives up his "large" practice, and makes good in his new field of work. Hotel Pro- prietor and Manager. Having been blessed with an "industrious" disposition, and overcharged with hot air, with a knowledge of all the requirements of the trade of the various hotels in this city, he purchases the "New Capitol" and ' Hntci Jo\ce, ' two of his favorites, and makes them winners, transient trade only.

"Jamie's" old friend, To.m D., who after hanging anniinl Suniicberg's for many years, waiting for a nurse, at last wins out, and becomes chief dispenser for Jamie. Tom being of neat appear- ance, never using tobacco nor profanity, knows from long experience when a drink is properly prepared, and makes that end of the business a howling success.

Of course, at one time Dk.'vn and RuTlkdgf. carefully considered obstetrics as a s])ecialty, and had won much success until a "colored lady" refused to take a green solution which Ri'Tlktce in- sisted was Ergot, but Dn;.\N agreed with the "lady" and said it was Corrosive Sublimate and might not exactly agree with her. Then and there their jirofcssional relations were severed.

Perkins is still reading "Fifteen Buckets of Dripping P.lood or The Chambermaid's Re- venge," and only answers calls when other Doctors are out of town.

B.\TKs is Resident Physician of a Deaf Mute Asylum, but never fails to return to the Internes' .\nnual House Warming, and always brings "Katie" a bottle of pickles.

After many years of unsuccessful practice C.ar.min'K meets another jolt when the Congress- man tells him he can be no son-in-law of his. He pines and weeps, and fnuling his old friend, Xed Smith, they begin life anew in the commission business.

In the City Directory of 1910, the names of Hostkitkr and Bryer, Coal Dealers, may be found. Their success is assured, as we can recall during their student days they were so success- ful in taking up collections for coal to heat the Y. M. C. A. building, and then taking all the coal required from the l^niversity cellar when "SiiekI-ock" Johnson was not around.

"Where is Benson?" W'hy he is the great Biltimore County surgeon, and met with much sue cess until the folding bed accident. "Benny." remembering his Surgery lectures al)out meeting all emergencies, especially about providing an operating table when none is at hand, used a folding bed. Just as the operation is completed the bed closes and the light goes out. "Benny" bums his notes, quits Surgery, and pays a visit to Baltimore to see his father's friend and classmate.

In 1010 a new Students' Building is erected by Carrom.. Private baths, c'cctric f^ns. telephone and telegraph connections arc provided, also a nicely furnished Rathskellar and Roof Garden. .X beautiful lake, with snow fish, a wooded lawn with canary birds nnd nightingales makes up the back court, and in front is a statuary park. Kach student is furnished an airship, a submarine boat, a private "open dav and night" bank, and a pipe filled with the same do|>c T am smoking.

Tn the mountains of West Virginia you can find "Aroie" happily married, and his nearest pro- fessional brother is "TEnnv" Harbait.!!. whoni he frequently meets in consultation, which con- tinues for several days, no agreement having been reached as to diagnosis, prognosis, or treatment.

70

Meanwhile the patient passes quietly away, and the consultation is ended for a few days. They meet again and again on the case, each time coming to no agreement as to the cause of the death. Each time "Teddy" waits until he can think of a few more questions, and so on ad infinitum.

Adler continues to "butt in" until quietly put away at Bay View, where he is brought before the class in Psychiatry as a patient suffering from a delusion that he was at one time Editor of the Terra Maricr, and that Dr. Martin wants him to assist on all his private operations.

Coming in contact with so many infants in his practice Glidden actually smiles at times, and rapidly gains weight.

In Russia you can find Kemler telling his patients the same old storv, "I will be back again, so soon as I find out what de book say."

As a suitable memorial to his college days Lvon endows a bed in tire Hospital for the benefit of Students who are suffering with Acute Bronchitis, Nursitis, Dizziness, Neuresthenia, Hysteria, Lumbago, Coryza, Headache, Indigestion or any other equally as serious disease.

Fox continues to study sixteen hours a day. sleep eight and command a small practice.

"The PiGGOTT-McCuTCHEN Hydrotherapy Sanitarium and Training School for Nurses" is the largest and best-tutored institution of its kind in the world. And why shouldn't it be? What two men had better training in giving baths and conversing with nurses?

ScHOENRiCH, "Little" Schaefer, and Potter are still "Pill-rollers" and "Soda-jerkers."

The fascinating, dainty, dear little blushing peroxide blondes, Flowers, Gordon and King, became surgeons for the A., C. & L. R. R., but soon gave up their jobs. Their hearts beat for the fair maidens of a certain sanatorium of Baltimore, and they returned and opened a candy kitchen on Eutaw Place.

There is one member of our class who needed no prophet to tell him about the future. He is VoGEL, "the man what owns a drug store, and what's more, will be driving two horses when Adler walks." Already he has a reputation from Canton to Rehoboth Beach, his summer residence ; he has cured, a case of English leprosy what Abbie and Prof. Gilchrist couldn't do. The woman what had the ingrown toe nail is O. K. after a successful operation by the "Doctor," but not like Dr. Tompkins said, oh, no, by VoGEl's method, and VoGEL was the man what never needed no advice. It has been rumored that our classmate has been asked to accept the chair of Therapeu- tics of our school.

RiGHTON, "The Would-be Surgeon," by years of diligent study and research work, acquires the position held by Dr. Jay, and the mortality only increased .5 per cent.

In Georgia, Franklin builds up an extensive obstetrical practice. Iwt he often suffers with ecchymosis about his cornea due to the warm an 1 welcome reception he receives from some of his patients.

Very soon after graduation Latimer and Lkgg established a Jo-Jo-School of Medical Jurisprudence. For the small sum of Fifty Dollars you could hear all the hot air that would be required to propel an airship across the Atlantic. Elgin. Egan and Kunstler entered to t^ke the treatment, but made little progress. Kunstler continually forgot the work pertaining to the "most important subject in medicine," and imagined the lecture was on modified milk, and con- stantlv insisted on asking how much water to give the cow.

The handsome lad with rosv cheeks and auburn hair, who admired a nurse with black hair

71

and blue eves, filled up his mind with more surgery than one man is supposed to know and became PKortssoR Lynn, the proficient teacher of Minor Surjiery and I'andaging. lint as time passed on. that oratorical instinct which made him famous at class meetings refused to remain dormant. Surgery was abandoned and he associated himself with the school founded ijy Latimer and Lecc, where that latent eloquence now has free ilow.

"iIi:.\RT-PiRi;.\Ki:K" ISrown never had the time to do s^cneral iiraclice. for the ladies kept hiui Ijusy answering the i)hone and making social ca!is. Conseijueiitly he opened a shop on Lexington street, where his sign reads:

He has made (|uitc a success at his profession and it is hojied that he may some day marry an actress or a millionaire's flaughter — or both, and a few more, if time permits. \\"e can safely say he will tlici) buy River N'iew Park, for which he has longed. lie guarded it faithfully for three sum- mers, seeing that no voung ladv visited the parlc without receiving a smile or a ride on the Scenic Railway.

"I'obbie" won the good will of the managtr ami was soon made second assistant cook. When he had mastered the work, and feeling confident thai he had obtained a working knowledge of dietetics, ojiened an office several miles from bis o'd hnme in the mountains and married a widow with eight small children, who are very I'ond of iheir >iei)f:ilher.

We have not been able to find out just what Di:i.ciii:r and Hi.ntt have done. With the for- mer's great desire for work and the latter's easy (low of "hot air." they may both be doing good in orthop.xdic surgery, but it i-^n't marked in red letters on the calendar \et.

"V.m.ik" has just taken charge of the I'.roadway AtliK-lie (.'Inb and has booked Massanet for the main bout.

"P.\t" O'Mai.i.Kv is now living in retirement on I'.nlaw Place, near Mosher Street, being hap- pily married. Tic has a small orphan asyhnn in his house, all the children calling him i)apa.

OUR HISTORir

KIND and expectant reader, permit me to turn backward the wheels of time, and direct your attention to the first days of October, 1904, when some of us, fresh from the country and rather seedy-looking, others from the city, and others from foreign shores, came to the grand old University of Maryland. We were soon signaled out as "Freshies," and in all our "innocent" lives we never did such stunts as we were then made to do. We were painted and marched all over the streets of Baltimore just to show the people what great fun it is to be a "Freshie." A few days later we elected quite a "poetical" sounding and distinguished looking set of class officers. William, the Coleman, was elected President; William, the Dew (drop), from \^irginia, Vice-President; H. Todd, Secretary; Henry Sinskey, Treasurer; J. L. Anderson, Historian, and "Windy" Insley, Sergeant-at-Arms. The same evening we surprised the whole school by having our pictures taken on the front steps, an unheard-of thing in Freshmen.

For the remainder of the term we were allowed to do as we pleased (so long as we kept back of the fourth row), and things passed along very nicely until Exams., and then some of us got awake to the fact that "if dissipation interfere with your studies, give up your studies," would 'lot work at the U. of M . So we parted for the summer, sadder but wiser boys.

On October 2, 1905, we met again on the campus after a pleasant vacation, and oh ! what a ■:hange in our appearance, for the hayseeds are brushed out of our hair and we have the appear- ince of dignified ( ?) Sophomores. Some of the familiar faces of the former year are missing, but their places are filled by new ones, and we proceeded to put the Freshmen through a few stunt:;, such as songs, dances, speeches, love-making and running the gauntlet. Soon the Freshmen "ailed a secret meeting to organize the class, but we got next to the scheme and broke up the meet- ing, but a "free for all, go as you please" fight started on the campus with the Sophomores coming out victorious, "Becky" Messmore carrying off the honors for heavyweights and "Pop" Wil'.ard for boy's-size men, but the Dean carried off the premier honors of the day. After this we had no •nore trouble with the Freshmen and we settled down to the more serious part of a student's life. The monotony of the grind was broken by a few enthusiastic ( ?) class meetings and a royal good •ime at a class smoker.

It has been said but too truly that "Only the good die young," and we had a sad dcmonstra- *:ion of this to our Class in the untimely death of our friend and classniate, Arthur Stanley Wilson. He was one of the best, most cheerful, and deservedly popular men in the Class. His death was mourned not only by his classmates, but by the school at large.

After a summer pleasantly spent among friends and parents we again meet on the campus to

77

welcome our old friends with a "Glad to see you, old man." All the men of the former year are back and the fame of the Class of 1908 has spread to such wide limits that thirty-five new men from all parts of the globe have joined us, and we extend a most hearty welcome to them.

As this is the Centennial year of the University, we decided to organize early so that we could begin our preparations for the celebration at the earliest possible date. A meeting was called and nominations for the various offices were made. On the day of election a dark horse came into the race, with Jim Bay, the greatest parliamentarian in the United States, to back him. The dark horse proved to be "Hamp" Richards and, uf course, he was elected P'resident ; D. Kolb, Vice President; J. Mackall, Treasurer; W. Burns, Secretary; "Tom" Taylor, Editor; C. R. Anderson, Scrgeant-at-Arms, and U. Willard, Hi<-torI,m.

On March 10, we held a box party at Ford s and everyone had a very enjoyable evening, but Dew would flirt with the chorus girls and Hammond got jealous of him. Xo history of a Class is com])lcte withmit a brief mention of Athletics. Our Class took the lead in this branch of col- lege life from the very first. In our Freshmen year wc held the championship of the school in baseball and had several men on the 'X'arsity football team. In our Sophomore year we organ- ized a football team to practice against the "Varsity, and we gave them a hard rub. J. L. Mess- more was Captain, and H. Richards, Manager. Those of the squad were H. Messmore. Raynor, La Barre, Price, Taylor. Warring, Mackall, Bender, Rosenberg. Todd. Cowherd, Inslee, West, Bay, Benson, and Willard. As Juniors we furnished the 'Varsity with the valuable services of J. Mess- more, S. Price, Raynor. Charlton, Hughes, Lekites and Willard.

But it has been in the scientific line that we have produced shining lights, but wc have found no cure for "languid" pains. J. K. Insley's saline tampon for uterine hemorrhage is of "world" renown. Rosenberg found the ])arotid gland in a woman's pelvis. Z. T. West says the spleen is in the mediastinum, and Price is chief ( ?) of the G. U. Clinic.

A great historian has said "Happy is the country whose annals arc short." So you can judge will be graduated as the first Class in the second who is now looking forward to the time when it from these few lines the happiness of our Class, century of this grand old I'niversity.

HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF W.

"The fretful foam of v'eliement action Without scope or terui calleci history."

AS MAS hi'cn stated by one of our previous Historians, history is tlie record of events which transpire in the hves of great men. And as they who know the Class of "'00," as well as the Historian can vouch for, the fact that it would be useless to attempt, for want of space, to write a history of this eventful Class.

The curtain is drawn aside on October 3, '0."). exposing; to the limelight of the medical world this Class of sixty-five intelligent-looking men, all with the determination plainly writ- ten on their faces to master this most noble of professions and become a credit to their .Mma Mater, scene first being entitled "Freshmen."

As Freshmen they made a very creditable showing, although they did not become or- ganized, nor had their ranks become entirely filled until a week or two after the session began. Mazing began at once, and was conducted with vigor for several weeks by our Upper Classmen, who superintended the process of a thorough introduction, intermingled with the exhibition of the various athletic attainments of the Class individually, which reflected much to the credit of the ingenuity of the aforesaid I'pper Classmen, speciul stress being laid upon the necessity of always taking oflf oui- hats on entering the lecture halls and leav- ing the best seats for our much-respected I'pper Classmen. We s,it back on what tiiey called the "roost." There were several violations of these rules, always to the chagrin of the offender. About October 20 our President pro tem called a meeting of the Class in the .\natomical Hall, at which meeting the following officers were elected: Mr. J. D. W'oon.vRn, President: Mk. J. X. Oshourne, Vice-President: Mr. C. F. Strosnider, Secretary; Mr. J. \V.

82

Robertson, Jr., Treasurer: :Mr. J. W. Blake, Historian; Mr. J. W. Hooper, Editor; Mr. A. Thurston, Sergeant-at-Arms.

This was an event which up to the present time was unparalleled in the history of the University, for no Freshmen Class Meetings are ever allowed in the lecture halls. The meet- ing was at this point interrupted by the Sophomores and had to be adjourned. This inter- ruption led to a class rush. The fight resulted in a draw on account of the appeaarnce at this instant of "De.\n DorsEv," who by his appearance and positive manner cleared the campus in a few minutes.

Several banquets were held during the year, at which the Class was highly entertained by the keen wit of Mr. Hamilton and others.

Nothing after this occurring to break the even routine of school life, all of us got down to hard study, for as time and tide wait for no man, examinations were fast approaching. In this line Messrs. Webber, Smink and others distinguished themselves, Mr. S.mink making four hundreds in five exams.

After a few regrets on leaving the school, which has won a soft spot in our hearts, we left for the summer vacation, and the curtain is drawn on the first act.

Scene second opens October 3, '06, entitled "Sophomores."

We find that a few of the familiar faces of last year are not with us this year, but their places are taken by men from some of the leading colleges of the East.

We find that our Class represents this year, besides our own country, Cuba, Porto Rico. Italy. Germany, Canada, Mexico, Syria, and Egypt.

On October 10, Mr. OsbournE called a Class meeting, and the following officers were elected :

Mr. Joseph W. Hooper, President; Mr. J.\s. B. Parrimore, Vice-President; Mr. Eugene Wright, Secretary; Mr. N, I. Broadwater, Treasurer; Mr. J. Mason Gillespie, Historian; Mr. Wm. T. Gibson, Sergeant-at-.^rms.

The way our Class held together in the hazing, which commenced immediately, won for us the name of having more Class spirit than any that ever entered the University. The Freshies, being tied together and decorated in fantastic garbs, were escorted to the medical schools of the town, at which they went through many antics, the leaders making impromptu speeches, etc. After being marched down to the American Building and having their photo and "write-up" inserted into the columns of the paper, they were taken to the campus of the University, where thev held a rooting match, the contestants rolling peanuts up the walk with toothpicks in their teeth. The contest was continued into the Dean's office, where "Dean Dorsey" inquired in very commanding tones what they wanted, to receive the reply that they had come in to tell him how nice the Sophomores are.

On October 18 we held our first Smoker, at which Messrs. Ricketts. Gibson, and OuEEn made interesting addresses. Sleight-of-hand oerformances and boxing contests were en- gaged in by Messrs. Hamilton, Laxgley. Robin.son, and others. The Smoker proved a very enjoyable feature, and a vote of thanks was extended to the committee, composed of Messrs. Strosnider. Ricketts, and Oueen.

The Yell Master. Mr. Hamilton, as ve'I as the greater part of the football team, were men from our Class.

83

A Sophomore baseball team was formed witli Mk. ]'.i,.\kk. Cai)tain : Mr. I'kikst, Man- ager : having a very successful season, winning ten games, losing four.

On February 19 we held our Annual Banquet at the New Howard House with Drs. S.mitii and HoLL.\ND as our honored guests. The toasts, music and menu were of the first water. Mr. Hooper acted as toastmaster and Drs. Holland and Smith, Messrs. Smi.vk, Rankin, Weber and others making interesting and witty addresses. Mr. Vinup briefly related his exiieriencc on a thousand-mile wheel trip that Messrs. Shu.nkweiler, Gillespie and himself had taken through Maryland and \'irginia during their vacation.

One of the most interesting addresses was that made by Dk. IIulla.nd. in which he stated that he had been very agreeably surprised in the rcoird that the Class of " '09" had made this year, and he prophesied that there were men in the Class that would be heard from in the future, to which Mr. Hooper replied that he now, more than ever, felt the honor of being President of such a Class, since the proficiency that they had attained in their studies had been so graciously recognized by the Faculty, adding that the U. of M. .Mumni are now filling some of the most distinguished positions that this country can offer. Who can tell but that some day some of our Class may not be filling the same positions, or even tireater ones? I believe it will be so. Historian.

ON THE first day of October, our Class began an existence which has thus far been quite in accord with the Centennial spirit pervading the entire University. Hold- ing the humble position of Freshmen, nothing but obedience to the Sophomores was ex- pected of us ; but our difference of opinion in thematter caused them to resort to strenuous meas- ures for the enforcement of their rules. It would be a difficult task to record all the events of the year, so we shall content ourselves with recounting only the most important ones.

We assembled in the Chemical Lecture Hall on the first day, fully expecting to be hazed after the lecture; and we were not disappointed, for as Dr. ColE ended his lecture with "I leave you to the hospitality of the Sophomores," we became impressed with the fact that there was going to be something doing, and as soon as he left there was. We have come to the conclusion that the manner of hazing us was due to the envy produced among the Sopho- mores by our good-looking fellows, for they immediately proceeded to spoil our looks with black paint, not to say anything about exposing our bared legs, painted also, to the view of the public. We were done up in a manner most embarrassing to us, and made to parade through the streets to the several medical colleges and to the Girls' High School, where we were made to do "stunts." And, by the way, we had to stand the hazing expenses; the hire of a hurdy-gurdy wagon for the Sophomores to ride around in, etc. After walking us around town for several hours, we ended up at the American Building; where, after being escorted to the roof, a picture of us was taken and published in the next day's paper. We

87

then returned to the University, and the Sophomores generously helped us to clean up Some of our fellows who missed the first day's outing were not to be slighted ; accordingly, they were persuaded to give an exhibition of their skill by rolling a peanut around the campus with a toothpick. After this interesting performance, while one of our fellows was hanging from the branch of a tree, the rest of us had to sing "Hang ."Ml Freshmen on the Sour Apple Tree." Such little episodes and speechmaking in the lecture halls were of frequent occurrence, especially when we broke the Sophomores' rules by holding a class meeting in the building.

Our first meeting was held in the Anatomical Hall. We had only a few minutes, so temporary officers were selected. Kirke was chosen as President; WacDermott, Vice- I'resident ; and RivERS, Secretary. Deeming it better for our health to hold our next meet- mg away from the University, we held it at the Eutaw House. At this time regular officers were elected for the year, the result being, — Kirke, President ; Von Dreele, \'ice-Presi- dent; Truitt, Secretary; Fowule, Treasurer; Goetti.inx, Historian ; and Glover, Sergeant- at-Arms. An Executive Committee was appointed by the President, which was composed of Robertson (Chairman), Goettung, P.xrrimore, O'Neill, and Gr.\cie, to attend to all business pertaining to the Class. It was at this meeting that the most important question of the year was brought forward: Should the Honor Sj'stem be adopted by us?

When once started the question was not discussed by our Class alone; but, in fact, nearly all the medical students of the University were interested in the discussion. Spir- ited meetings were held by our Class, at which those for and against it were given an oppor- tunity to present their side. At one of those meetings several members of the Faculty were present and spoke, urging the adoption of the Honor System. The Sophomores did not, of course, like the idea of our coming into such prominence, and at this latter meeting they came down to break it up. One of the Faculty, however, talked them out of their purpose, and we were allowed to finish. But some of the advocates of the Honor System were sin- gled out on the next day and taken into the Laboratory, where the Sophomores meted out punishment for their audacity by staining their faces and other parts of their bodies with methylen blue. This question was finally settled in the negative at a meeting in the Eutaw House.

The crowning feature of the year was the first of our .\nnual Class Banquets, which was held at the Eutaw House on the T^'th of April. We count it as one of the special features of the Centennial Celebration.

Before closing this History I must mention that one of our men, Israel, made the 'Var- sitv football team, and played the position of fullback with much distinction to himself and credit to our Class.

TJniverstty of cMatytand

1807-1907.

One hundred years have rolled into the past

Since first thy stately walls were born to view, And heaven, in thee, sent an iconoclast

To tear the old — and rear foundations new. One hundred hallowed years

Of faithful service done, Of tasks well wrought, of truths well taught.

Of worthy laurels won ; One hundred years of balm to tears

Hast thou to gaze upon.

Many are thine and pride must fill their hearts.

That first in thee they learnt to cope with strife; In thee they gleaned from wisdom all its parts,

In thee the}' had their first pure glimpse of life. Thine was the succoring care

That helped their falt'ring feet. And thine the truth that turned their youth

Into manhood complete. And helped each soul attain the goal

And taste its prizes sweet.

One hundred years have rolled into the past !

And still thou standest, Alma Mater, dear. And may'st thou stand the same until the last.

Strong for the truth and ever void of fear. We give thee honor — praise —

We who are youthful still. And only hope to fitly cope

With all earth's ills, until We may some day turn from the fray,

No more left to fulfill.

— H. M. R., '09.

OAST-TO THE FACULTY

W c I'f llHi';. wliii arc abmil lu Ijid farewell to the classic walls of our Alma Mater, and to those at whose feet we have sat for four long years, salute you. It is not the iiiorituri salutainus of the gladiator of old, but it is a vivcndi salutamus , for we hope to yo forth and live as examples of the best of the Mip])ocratic teachings.

While the true standard of the University lie.> in the worth of its students and .\lumni, still the active administrative and executive ability is placed in your hands. Our Alma Mater is no petty institution to be weakened by trifling broils and conceits, .so it is your duty to honor the position to which you have Ijeen called, and it is no mean honor to be a member of the Faculty of the University of Maryland — and to make your selfish interests subservient to that which is best and good for the institution. You have done much good, but your opportunity today is greater than ever and must be seized ujjon and advantage made of it. So, let peace anrl good will abound at your council board, let no shadow of discord mar your <lelil)erations, and guard well the inter- ests ])lace(l in your keeping.

We of 1907 go out to represent the University of Maryland. We realize our many short- comings, but we believe that safety and certainty of the shijj's jirogress depends as much upon the leadsman in the chain, who sounds the shallows of the seas, and upon the grimy .stoker in the (!e|jths below, as it does upon the man at helm or the captain on the bridge. We cannot all be teachers of medicine, but can uphold and expect to uphold the dignity of the profession, and de- mand of you that all who listen to your teachings be fully imiiresscd with the great dignity of the profession by looking to you for e.xamples.

Now, as we go each and every one our several ways to the four quarters of the earth as ministers to the sick and suffering, we will continue to be bound to our .llina Mater and its [■'acuity by the golden chain of pleasant memories.

.May the future generations help the worthy work of their prcdecesstjrs and make Baltimore the .\thcns of .Xmcrica and this L'niversity its chief tem])le of learning.

To RELATE a true and full history of the great and illustrious Class of 1907 is a task that I dare not attempt. Space and time will not permit, to say nothing of ability and other little et ceteras scarcely worth mentioning. For those who feel a really deep interest in our career as students at the U. of M., and who earnestly desire to hear of our thrilling adventures and deeds of valor as "under-classmen," I can do no better than refer them to the most admirable work of Mr. Hammond, Terra Maricr, MCMV, Vol. 1, page 32.5, wherein will be found set forth in the most pleasing style the more important events of our first year; and also to that great work of Mr. Thompson, Terra Maria, MCMVI, Vol. 3, page 130, where is related with Mr. Thomi'.^on's usual cleverness and wit the principal features of that, our second year. Having thus covered the first two years with admirable brevity, it falls to my lot to proceed more in detail with our third and last.

Tiie opening of the year 190()-"07 found us, with few exceptions, back again, ready, but by no means willing, to resume our work as learned and serious Seniors. White was one of the exceptions. Poor chap, he should have been named "Peter Peaceful." But Fortune, the contrary jade, is no respecter of the doctrine of the "fittest," and just the day before, while Emmut was filling the dangerous and difficult role of "Edward Ejector," he was falsely, fraudulently, wantonly, brutally, and with malice prepense, assaulted and beaten by a band of ungcntlemanly trespassers, so that he nearly sufifered the loss of his nose. Wherefore we were deprived of his company for ten long days. Wc also missed the sweet, (mel)odi- ous voice of Williams, T. C, who, in previous years, had become famous for asking ques-

121

tioiis in order to display his knowledge. — to say nothing of his asininity. It was he who made the phenomenal run for President in his first year; had it not been for some friend who kindly stopped him, he would have been running yet.

On our entrance into the lecture hall, a great suri)rise greeted us. to wit: The Faculty, in an unparalleled burst of generosity, had Iia<l the ])anelling repainted a beautiful am- ber ( ?) hue. and the walls delicately retouched with whitewash. Our hearts melted within us at the sight, and while we were at first inclined to view this unaccustomed extravagance as a dangerous precedent, in tlic end we surrendered to gratitude pure and simple. But, uh the wonder of it !

There were many other change.^!, too. The Library was clean, and there was not a book out of place, — a condition (juite unusual, which continued for almost a week. We missec the fair, innocent face of Morg.\n, who made himself famous as Librarian last year, and got a poem written about himself. But his place was soon worthily filled — shall we say competently? Be.vchley for a while kept the place in fine order; but, alas! there are more amusing and enticing places than the Library in close proximity to the University. It might be added, parenthetically, that Bkaciilev and his quondam assistant, Ei'plkr. deserve at least two poems. Most of the men looked the same as usual, except that they had lost that worried, haggard look, so in evidence last May, brought on by hard study. A number of them, too, showed by their brown complexions that they had been oflf at some seashore, or otherwise enjoying the vacation in good outdoor sports. But amid these slight changes, many things wore the same old familiar look (including the Captain), and we greeted them as old friends.

Primarily, this is a history. But, after all, what is "the history of a class?" There is little appeal to anyone in the history of a "class," as such. Such a history would or should be, cold, austere, impersonal ; the winding-sheet of all that is filled with the joy of life ; — and that is not what we want. Rather do we want the ragged edges of "personality" under the jesting guise of which may be discerned the warm, pulsing blood of the Man, the In- dividual. Therein lies the making of true history, not of the Class, but of the people. And we will try to let you, dear reader, sum up for yourself the history of the class as a body, from the bits of history taken from the active, daily life of some of us. If you can glimpse the Class of 1907 as it really is. or was, from these sidelights on a few lucky ( ?) members, then will our task as Historian have been fulfilled, if not worthily, at least in all willingness.

Therefore: It is a known fact that rjii.r.iNCSi.icv was the first man asleep this j-ear, for the Poet whispered in my ear: "Behold, he sleepeth," — and I beheld. Bu.i.i.vgslkv,. no doubt, enjoyed his nap, and I might also say that the Poet was a close second.

One night, feeling rather restless and in no mood for study, I wandered over to Lilly's room, expecting to find him hard at work on International Law; instead, he was sitting on the bed vigorously flipping a quarter into the air. When I inquired as to the cause of such flippancy, he said, in very solemn tones : "It's just this: Heads, I push a Blue Pen- cil;— Tails, I carry a Green Bag." I at length talked him out of his serious humor, and persuaded him to invest his quarter at "Gordon's."

We were all greatly pleased with our new course. "Jurisprudence." until we heard tiiat

122

there \\as to be an examination on it. At that very moment it ceased to be a pleasure and became work. Under this heading, Pkof. Donaldson discussed men and their customs and habits from Adam to date (inchuHng, of course, everything but the Peach). He dwelt with much length on the primeval man of the caves, and talked learnedly of Mastodons, sabre- toothed Tigers, and all sorts of ferocious wild beasts, but of all "the Fighting Man was the Unit."

One Friday afternoon during one of his lectures, I was deeply interested and was tak- ing voluminous notes. Suddenly I was interrupted by Weu,s, who sat next to me. As he seized my arm and cried : "Save me, save me, the sabre-toothed tiger is about to devour me," he presented a pitiable picture of fright. I shook him and woke him up, and soon convinced him that it was only a "Day-mare."

The Moot Court did a rushing business for about three weeks. In one case Romk argued that he had all the Law on his side, and declared himself surprised when his learned brother on the other side attempted to contest the case. Therefore he asked the Court for $5,000 worth of damages, and was much discouraged and chagrined when he did not get a cent, — not even a smell, think of that !

Shriver put his case quite forcibly before "Criminal" Ciiesnut, sitting as a Court of Equity; and during his harangue whispers could be heard, "A future J. P. P." Had he chewed soap and foamed at the mouth, his success would have been complete.

Hans distinguished himself in his case. But it was too bad that in his excitement he forgot where Venice was located. Lucky for him that no one mentioned roller skates, for it is certain that he would have dropped everything and run post haste to the "Garage."

\\'hen Rose was asked why he did not argue his case more strongly, he said: "It's against my principles; I just naturally can't even talk against booze."

One day during a quiz on International Law, Leith, who was probably dreaming of the fair fields of Virginia, was unexpectedly called. Stockbridge put the question something like this: "Mr. Leith, is the enemy in time of war allowed to wear the uniforms of the op- posing belligerent, in order to conceal his movements?"

Leith (straightening up) : "Oh, yes, sir; all is fair in love and war."

Stockbridge: "I see you are not well versed in the latter subject."

He then turned his attack on Young. "Mr. Young, distinguish the cases 'Atherton vs Atherton,' and 'Haddock vs. Haddock.' Deacon, looking very blank, — "Indeed, Judge, I never knew they had anj' trouble."

In one of the quizzes on Evidence, Mr. Poe asked Gaither a question and received this answer: "I have it in my mind, Mr. Poe, but I can't get it out." Some time later, during a quiz on Jurisprudence, Mr. Donaldson, after calling a number of names, came to Kell- MAN, who bravely answered up. "Now, Mr. Kell.man, give me, in your own language. Sir Henry Main's theory." The Class was utterly astounded when he answered in English.

Several weeks before the mid-year exams., Sullivan, Wilcox, and Dunn were holding a heart-to-heart talk on Evidence, when one of them (immaterial which one) made the fol- lowing remark: "I've got it now. I'll just kill those e.xams., and I'll make a noise like a hun- dred : — for I'll put my answers under a videlicet, and then I won't have to prove what I say."

123

About this time, Cordray, better known as Lord Mansfiki-D, was giving, free of charge (for he is a most generous fellow) lectures on "I low to pass Jurisprudence." The sub- stance of his lecture was this: "Boys, there are three things you must know to pass Juris- prudence; first. Sir Henry Main's Theory; second, the Fighting Man; and third and most important of all, the two elements of human nature. \\ ilh these firmly rooted in your brain, there will be no danger of flunking."

The Class owes a great debt to Pardek, Mudd, and Wilso.n', who together thrashed out the fiercest question in Conflict of Laws, — the exterritorial effect of a decree of divorce. They at length decided, "That a man can ha%'e a wife in every State, and a divorce in every State, from all his wives not domiciled within that State. So that, whatever State he hap- pens to be in, he will have a wife without the trouble and expense of carrying one with him, and still is not subject to indictment for Polygamy." They also state that South Caro- lina is an exception to the rule. Pardee wrote a dissenting opinion of much length and great depth, based upon Public Policy.

We come now to a transformation scene, — our first Senior Smoker. The Lecture Hall, that we left in the afternoon, a hall of learning and serious study, is now a place of festivity and revelry. Those sacred tables, used only for supporting learned writings, are now de- filed and polluted with kegs, bottles, glasses and various other things. Oh, Desecration ! Would that I could find the perpetrator, that I might, — shake his hand and commend his most excellent taste. Needless to say, we hada royal good time. Toasts and speeches were made by such eminent orators as Anthony, Lord Mansfield, Donoiiue, and others.

After the mid-year exams., that nightmarish stumbling block in the ways of the stu- dent's imagined progress, there was much weeping and gnashini? <rf teeth (especially sabre-teeth) ; and great was the anxiety of the poor Seniors until Judge Stockbridge turned in his marks.

Our new acquisition, Mr. Rose, started the second term with a lightning lecture on Federal Procedure, giving us a bewildering example of how much one man can say in one hour if he really tries. It is the general opinion tliat Judge Stockbridge must now give way to this speedy and more formidable speaker, — who, by the way, remarks how well the Class sleeps during his lectures.

It is true that Wood was up before the Faculty, charged with higli treason. For thrice did he try to usurp the throne of Equity, and it was only by main force that Mr. Gorter regained his post. Wood filed a plea that it was a joke. The Class is open to conviction ; but ???—!!

It was announced a short time ago that Prince, Leith, F.ppler, Dr\T)EN, White, Rowe, and some others, had formed a Dramatic Society, and that their rendition of the appalling catastrophe, entitled "The Mystery of the Juniors' Smoker, or W ho Stole the Beer," was a howling success.

Finlev, having passed the State Board, felt that he could not dojustice to his feelings of joy, alone. So he gave a Smoker to the Class, which was greatly appreciated, and im- mensely enjoyed. And, on account of such generosity, he becomes famous, and will go down through the annals of Time, a great man, and his praises will be sung forever.

124

Prince, another one of the chosen few who took the Bar exam, before graduation, imme- diately upon learning the result, purchased a handsome pair of kid gloves, and went out to celebrate the joyous occasion in a fitting manner. We will not attempt to say where he went, but we have a suspicion that he passed a good many city bar exams, on his way

There are a number of events concerning a number of men that have been omitted by special request, and for other reasons. Then, too, in the pleasure of chronicling such events, howsoever famous they may be, one is likely to draw out the thread of one's verbosity finer than the staple of one's historical fund.

So I shall conclude by thanking my readers for their kind attention and by wishing that good fortune will attend all those who are mentioned herein, as they leave the old Alma Mater and enter upon life's great struggle.

TO KNOW OR NOT TO KNOW.

•>T<i

H( )\V to draw aside tlic \cil or mist wliicli separates tlir fdrnicr fi'inn the latter, or tlie present from tlie future, so ;is to more clearly foretell what is in st<irc for each indi- vidual member of this <li^tinj;uislietl Class, was a most peri)le.\in;^' (|uestion for the T'roi)hct of tlie Class of 1007.

Tlie attem])t to ac(|uit myself of this task by means of astrology was of no avail, for they, being a class of individual stars, did only negative the effect of the stars upon them. Whilst in this dilemma and worn out from excessive study ( ?), I fell into a sc-mnd sleep and awoke to find — not that I had slept a few hours, but many years, and that startling changes had taken place.

1 started out to see the town, and also the hoys, 'I'lie lirst 1 had the pleasure of meet- ing was my friend I 'ii:i.i:nr. I started in to ask liim a series of ipiestions as to the where- abouts of our old classmates, and was agreealily sur]ir;sed to learn that he had kept a record oi their wanderings, to which record I readily betook myself.

Imagine my surprise \o leaiii therein thai the leading newspa]ier of the city was edited by no less a personage than rm.Nci:. .\nother interesting feature of the paper was the splendid cartf)on w<jrk of Kosi:. l.i'.ini and W'lirii:. Cii.\ki.i:s told me that the}- all gave up the profession of law for that of journalism — not that they were unsuccessful in the practice of law, for from the constant use of I'iki.Krt's notes they liad been very successful, but that they cared more for the good they could accomplish through the medium of the press than for any money they could receive from any other source.

126

I next pcrcliaiiced to meet \\'altkr TjUCK, of the finii of Buck, Thompson & Wii.- LiAiMS, who insisted that I should come over to see their sumptuously furnished offices, and tliey were indeed as he had described them. \\ hile I was there Wif.liams and Thompson were discussing a case that was to be tried that day before JuuGic Reynolds. This would naturally make it interesting, but my interest was intensified upon learning that the oppos- ing counsel was the firm of Dunn, Cook and Eckard.

In the office of the latter firm there were a number of books published by the firm of Dryden & Hans, among the most prominent of which were Fears' Constitutional Law. DiNNEEN on International Law, and King's Testamentary Law in Maryland, comprising twenty volumes, and citing practically every Maryland case on this interesting subject.

When Judge Reynolds' Court was reached we were agreeably surprised to see that Ed. had taken care of his old friends by appointing Dewers and Nelson bailififs and Woods the Court crier. Woods seemed delighted to know that he could attract attention and at the same time have the pleasure of hearing himself talk.

Clark and Wade Brown were the leading lawyers of Howard county; Clark was mak- ing a specialty of Corporation Law, and Brown of Criminal Law, and of course it is need- less to state that Brown was much the busier man.

C. R. P. Brown had opened up an office and had one case — the suit-case he always carried. He guarded this very carefully, as he did not want to lose his first and only case.

Beachley and Legge had opened up law offices in Hagerstown and were doing (every- body) very nicely; Beachley was somewhat of a politician, being the State's Attorney for Washington county, while Lkgge attenrled strictly to his profession.

Eppler had formed a partnership with Wilson, and thev had started the practice of their profession in that flourishing ( ?) town of Cumberland. Eppler was the business agent of the firm, while Wilson performed the legal duties. Epplick had introduced an in- novation in the profession by giving to his clients trading stamps in the form of champagne checks, or, more accurately, beer checks, and it seemed to have the desired effect.

H.vmilton had given up law and returned to his first love and was the President of a successful bank, having as tellers Anthony and Bailey. Howard told me he kept them, as it was very hard to get honest men.

Troeger had given up law, and was the President of a Trust Company ; lie rather |)re- ferred to trust a trust company than to trust to law — for his existence. Bl.vki; and Bi;.\l- mEar were the managers of the real estate department of this company; Blakic had become an expert at this immovable, deriving his experience during his course at the V. of M.

The name of LT. of M. reminds me that Copeland was lecturing on International Law, and on hearing that and for old time's sake I decided to visit once more the scene of so many happy days. As I entered Copeland was explaining to the Class that this was a very changeable subject, and judging by the appearance of some familiar faces, the subject was, indeed, more changeable than some of the members of the Class, .\fter the lecture on In- ternational Law I stayed to hear Cordray's lecture on Jurisprudence (an interesting sub- ject and an interesting lecturer). Cordray spent the hour lecturing to the Class on the primitive man, and the fact that the primitive man was the head of the family, which at that

127

time seemed rather hard to believe, for the reii^ii of llie woman was sii[)reme. and how we all longed for the good old days — when everybody worked but father. I'.efore leaving I de- cided to visit the Library; one of the most useful of tlic new additions I noticeil to be Kkll- M.\N on Conflict of Laws. After perusing the same, I came to realize the [ihilosophy of the say- ing, "Are you a single man or are you married?"

CioLDM.NN and Gaitiier had gone into politics, each taking a turn at representing their districts in Congress. It was a put-up job, but as they were both gond men. no one seemed to object. SiiRivER had also gone into politics, and was adxocating some much-needed re- forms. Mark had also taken care of his friends by having P>.\vi.i:ss and ("iAKKv appointed to the beauty scjuad, for such splendid specimens of manhood were few and far between.

"Okacon" Young had become an ardent advocate of socialism, had wriiten several books on this subject, controlled a socialistic newspaper, and was superintendent of a Sun- day School, and by the way he was reaping in gold, was doing everything but practicing the radical methods that he preached. Junci-; had control of a humorous magazine, and he was deservedly successful, for John had that rare gift of humor that is found in but few men, and it was gratifying to note that he was giving the public the benefit of it. At John's suggestion we decided to take a trip to one of the shore resorts. On boarding the car we found the conductor to be our friend Owens, who informed us that Jack Havdon was the general manager of the company, and that several of the boys were conductors on the road, including Ross and RowK.

On alighting from the car at our destination we were attracted by an unseemly noise which we at once recognized to be the voice of Rome — Ro.me was the barker for a variety show that was being managed by the Donahue Bros. We found Kaueman to be the door- keeper; so, of course, no tickets were necessary; Herbert ushered us to our places (the best seats in the house), and just as we were making ourselves comfortable Pardee announced a song i)y Messrs. ^L\RINE and Fowler, composed by i.ii.r.v. the famous composer. The next number was a powerful one-act melodrama, the principals of which were Wells, Den- hard, ScHiNDLER, and ScHMH)T; ScHMHvr takiii.g the jiart nf the villain. Just as we were about to applaud some of SchmdjT's splendid act'ng I awnke In find I was still back in I'.Mi; and StiiMir)T was still arguing his meniDrable (for len;,'tli ) case in the im i(it-ci>urt.

HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF '08.

THE history of the Intermediate Class is an ephemeral one so far as its component members are concerned — born in the early fall, it lives but a few short months and dies in the month of roses. As a class entity, however, it goes on from year to year. It is a most essential part of our career as Students at the Law School, for 'tis only when we pass from the infant (Junior) Class to the Intermediate, the first stake, the first turninfj point, and commence to haul up to the finish of our triangular course, that we begin to realize just what it all means and our eyes open to the real work before us. And as the second turn gives us the base of the triangle, so is our intermediate year the base of our law course. Into it are crowded subjects of great importance to us when our race is run. It is safe to assert that half the work of a lawyer is taken up with Orphans' Court pro- cedure, and yet, now that we have passed over the rich and verflant field of testamentary, how little we know of it and how helpless we should be if sutldcnly called upon to segregate specific froiu general legacies or to state whether a soldier in active service may dis- pose of his estate by nuncupative will, et cetera. And it is not the fault of the teacher nor yet the fault of the pupil. It is unquestionably a difficult subject to teach, and to some of us it seems but half the time is allotted that should be given to such an important branch of the law. But softly — the Historian must not stray from the beaten path assigned to him. It is not within his license to perform the work of the critic, and this digression V. as made only for the purpose of registering a kick that seems general.

132

The Class as a whole, has been astonishingly courteous to the professors, and no such "calling down" for unseemly conduct has blotted its history, as was the case when we were Juniors. The ghost of the dauntless and irrepressible Dawkins stalks through the class- room, but is given the cold shoulder and told to "skidoo." We are too busy now to waste time pounding a hard, unyielding floor, when some chap goes out early for his mutton. Among themselves, the members of the Class have established a code of ethics that could be examined with a microscope without picking a flaw. In this epoch of muck-raking, the uniform repression shown by each member is worthy of note as indicating the morale of the Class and the e.xcellent training we received in our youth from associate-professor bootjack. This augurs well for the next year's course in equity; and apropos — the Historian has noticed an amusing preparation for that subject. It is a well-known and time-hon- ored maxim in equity, that "he who seeks equity must appear in court with clean hands," and the array of manicuring scissors and the grave concern with which many wart-grown, crooked and stubby fingers have been studied, must already have reached Mr. Gorter's ears. During the very beginning of our intermediate course, we were introduced to a flourishing lemon tree by Mr. ChesnuT. It is safe to say that, despite his magical performances in horticulture, Burbank has never yet evolved a lemon from a ChEsnut, and yet, when the curtain dropped on November 15 we had seen that very act. We have already cracked a bottle or two to the health of Mr. Frank, who so frankly and so generously passed us his notes on title — notes that produced harmony all around.

From Mr. Jay PeE we heard a learned discourse of the rules of common law pleading, and incidentally much of the autobiography of our Cicero when he was a young and inex- perienced attorney 'way back in the sixties and what he did to the other fellow. We all know the story of the lion that drifted into the British Museum and there saw the picture of Sampson crackinrj open the very jaws of that very lion's ancestor; and how the lion very wisely observed, that " 'ad a lion painted the picture 'twould 'ave been the other way." Oh well, the opponents that Mr. Johnny had those ancient days are doubtless making excuses to St. Peter for the way they slew the innocents, so we must take Mr. P.'s word for it — and gladly we do so. The exam, on pleading was elemental, but the Historian and a few others lost their way and strayed from the fold.

And now the second stake is in sight. We have slept many times o'er bills and notes — we've been told who may be an agent and when a principal lacks principle. The grand old man of the Faculty once more has us under his care and protection and has already dis- closed to us in our course in practice how to ring the Sheriff's door bell and get an answer even during business hours. We have sat enthralled before the throne of France and lis- tened to a master mind vmfold the wondrous, and to us, bewildering intricacies of corpora- tion law ; about which we shall know far more when we've taken the text-book, turned it upside down and gone over it from the end to the very beginning.

Beg pardon for this slip-slop — this doggerel, which the Historian has smuggled into this annual of classics, but each will have a chance to club him when he's sober.

PROPHECY

MCMVI

Ori\ l'ni])lK't is a queer duck. One day last fall, while sleeping wilii his nioutli open (as is usual with a number of the distinj^uished members of the Class of Xaugiity- eight) he, by mistake, and not b}' intent, he begs to assure you, swallowed one of the distinguished lecturer's talks on Title. The effect was more than he had bargained for, and a few moments later he was on a stretcher being rushed over to the bloody assizes of the I'nivcrsity Hospital, a big building filled with nurses and corpses. While Chief I'utcher Shiplky, aided by several oi his Fellow-Carvers, was engaged in holding court on f)ur Prophet's internal fee simple a panorama passed before his limpid eyes, which were filled with estates in fee tail and remainder and a horrible suspicion of Criminal Intent.

Drifting like a ship which has lost its bearings, floating this way and that, the spirit of our Prophet, thus submerged in Title and its suburban environments, was for the time be- ing lost to the world. Then the panorama began ; at first it took the form of a small cloud of dim, dark hue, with a slight glimmer of light perforating its center. Gradually the spot in the cloud grew larger and larger, and still larger and larger, until finally, as in a trance, the Prophet well realized the effect of an overdose of law.

As the cloud was dispelled before the fast- increasing circle of light which liad apparently annihilated its center, the Prophet realized that he was the sole passenger on a raft of soap, floating on and on. driven by blasts of cigarette smoke against a soiled handkerchief sail, stuck on a burnt match-stick. As he passed down the river of soapsuds out onto the ocean of blueing, he realized that he was to be permitted a glance in the future, greater bliss than whicli none but a Senior had previously known in tlie history of the l^nivcrsity of Maryland.

134

Closing his ej'es in order to strengthen them for the ordeal which he felt was sure to come, the Prophet lay back and smoked an odorous cigar while waiting the advent of the events of the future. Then he opened his eyes, and observed for the first time that he was in the spectators' gallery of the United States Senate. Glancing at a newspaper which he held in his hand the Prophet was amazed to see that it was January 23, 1923. Glancing around in astonishment, be beheld several familiar figures, with an added paunch and a few additional whiskers, gracing the seats reserved for the Upper Ten in Congress as- sembled.

Georgb Hartman was still there. Some of the Class may remember their distinguished President — the gentleman, who as a politician, was a great success. George was still savage and untamed and persisted in chewing a black cigar up to the point where sensible citizens usually apply the match. Rising in his seat, the ponderous statesman, who had succeeded J. F. C. Talbott as United States Senator from Maryland, moved that the Upper House adjourn to the cafe for the time being in order that they might have a drink on the prosper- ity of the country. As the Fathers of the Country slowly wended their way through the subterranean passage leading from the President's desk to the wet goods emporium in the cellar, Hartman slowly turned his head and winked sagely at the Prophet, who stood gaz- ing on with feelings of mingled awe, amazement and envy. "I dont' know much law," said George, sotto-voce, "but I certainly am h on politics !"

"Whom do you represent?" whispered the Prophet, in a voice trembling with eagerness and apprehension.

"T]tE PtvNNSVlvania Railroad, the Democratic Machine, and the State of Maryland," retorted Hartman, with a broad grin, and saddened the Prophet turned away.

The Capitol faded, and with it the capitalists. Out of the mists of the future rose the great gray walls, gaunt with gangrene, of the State Penitentiary. Breaking stones with France's Corporation Law was the spirit-like form of a weazened man, wearing stripes, a Hebrew nose, and a pair of glasses. "Who are you?" whispered the Prophet, "bird or devil? Speak, I prithee!"

And as the gaunt and aged man lifted his countenance from his sorry job the Prophet saw at a glance that it was Abe Hummec's successor, whose face wore an antiquated grin that drew the skin back from his magnificent pearl-like teeth in a manner to make the most jealous envious. "Eli, Son of Moses, of the House of Abraham, surnamed Katten, speak thou, and let my strained feelings rest."

"Well," said the sad-faced son of Joshua,"! followed Jo France's advice, and repealed the 23rd Article of the Code and"—

"Well?"

"They sent me up for breaking the law, and said that they thought smashing stones was far better — they wanted to find out which was the toughest — France's logic, or cobblestones, and so Pm here to determine this question of ultra vires."

And the Prophet turned away, saddened, wondering who was more to be pitied— Hartman or Katten.

135

With palsied step, the Prophet continued on his way towards tlie land of cold and snow. \\ hither he knew not, but the panorama drew him on. As he passed in between the (iolden Gates, he noted that St. Peter had shaved his beard, and had his pair parted in the middle.

"\\'ho"s coming?" he asked the Saint.

"A representative from the Devil's Print Shop, with a pctitirm that we send Gr.\nt down there to make Hell roar!"

"Why," said the Prophet, "I didn't know the (iE.NKK.M. had ever gotten out of the In- termediate Class, much less into Heaven."

"Yep," said Peter, laconically, "he was boosted out of Purgatory; the Devil wouldn't stand his grin, and so we had to take him in."

At that moment the confab was interruptecl by the appearance of Jo G.affin, Ben C.\Tor, and Ben Freenv, e.x-judges of the Cussed Court of Cross-Roads County.

"This is the delegation from the Eternal Regions," said Peter, with a laugh, "and Grant's going to get a warm reception. Heaven Gr.\nt that the Devil caters to Free- Nv's wants. Where's your petition?" he demanded.

Our Official Printer has vamoosed," said Freeny, bowing low ; "he's been elected to Congress, and is thereby a privileged character."

"But's that's hearsay," broke in C.\tor, who thought he knew something of evidence.

"But it's an admission against his interest?" retorted Freeny — and

"To H with the Bunch, and take Grant along!" shouted Peter, in semi-anger.

"And say," he added, "burn his grin off before you send him back."

Exeunt Omnes.

The panorama changed ; "For .\uld Lang Syne" was written in words of fire across the sky, and after chasing the rainbow to its terminus, the Prophet located the Official Printer of the Class, engaged in digging bones out of Poe's pleading with the aid of a mental pick and shovel. Fr.-wk had long since ceased to bang the keyboard of a linotype machine and was engaged in practicing upon Haugii for the purpose of qualifying as an expert witness. Fr.\nk had been in the bughouse (University of Maryland) for two years as a physician and a patient, and was learning to tell whether a man is crazy because he flunks in Testa- mentary, or whether it should be recorded as a mark of distinction.

Seated on a rock, the learned F. N. Howe Lang was teaching his Class how to study law without opening a book. Arranged in a semi-circle about him were learned BremER, the poet, who wrote "Will I Ever Graduate?" Ike Weinberg, who sells one half-beer for five cents; "Bill" Roycroft, formerly an authority on how "Xot to Kiss a School-Marm ;" "Solomon Greenberc" Coulson, who had been run out of Baltimore because of his too strong pull — on a bum cigar and a bent oar; "Shyster" Waxman, known to fame and the I)olice as an ardent pleader that minors should be allowed to smoke cigarettes; and "Stew" Bailey, possessor of a tin-can voice, an Apollo-like countenance, and a cleanly conscience, in re soap and towels. There were numerous others; but before the Prophet had time to notice them particularly the panorama had passed, and he found himself back on eartli 'mid real estate and actions on the case.

IN 'IM 1 1'. turmoil and strife which awaits every ambitious, energetic young lawyer, it is certain that many moments will come when his mind, thirsting for refreshment, will

revert to the hapi)y, careless days of his early struggles with the Law. If he has been faithful, his profession will have brought him abundant success, and he may well call to mind the memories of that high-roofed, dingy lecture room, the rafters and joists of wiiicii have long since absorbed enough tobacco smoke and l:i\\ to become humanly fanciful. Twice pleasant, indeed, is the slight task of recording a few incidents and chance remarks concerning those early impressions, both imaginative and true, that were not intended to be forgotten.

It might be both "logically relevant" and eminently "admissible" to introduce our testi- mony, crude and droll, early in these proceedings lest, through disinclination or inadver- tence, the points of interest at issue be too long delayed to demand proper consideration.

The prospective law students of lOOii. many in number, handsome in countenance, and exuberant in spirit, boldly crossed the threshold of their Jealous Mistress on the '.>4th of Sep- tember, l!M)(i. This day marks the starting \m\nt in many a career of greatness. The aforementioned lecture room, where tobacco smoI;e helps cure the freshness of idle youth and gives clearer insight to clouded brains, is the first stepping-stone to the temple where are fixed the "Seats of the Mighty." Doubtless the first impression conceived in the minds of most 'Olters as they entered the samlKiii siiitctoniiii, rinil beheld the almost countless hosts

140

of law students preparing to worship at the shrine of Blackstone was one of doubt and misgiving, perhaps best expressed by the question :

// all these lawyers practice -with me,

Where in the thunder can I get my fee?

When ProF. Franck began to hurl elementary chunks of learned legal lore our way we no longer had any time to fool along with impressions, as there seemed to be a cloud- burst of facts coming upon us. Indeed, the genial Wiseacre of "Blackacre" only saved himself from a long mortality list by assuming a charitable attitude, and by ever wearing that comfortable air of assurance in our ability, that made us ashamed to flunk. It was a relief to listen to Prof. Fr.\nce's lectures, as they seemed to spring from the well of his clear understanding, delightfully free of the savor of text-books.

Many calls having gone forth, the candidates for President of this Class finally man- aged to stir up enough enthusiasm to hold the election of officers. It soon developed that harmony's sweet bells were destined to "jangle out of tune," and that a state of chaos pre- vailed, from which not even the hysterical, voluminous, and volcanic eloquence of a Charlie ClaGGETT could bring peace, order, and organization. Charlie little realized that the day of crooked political bossism had passed, and that his ticket, conceived in iniquitous se- crecy, could not live in the light of his classmates' intelligence, when borne into their presence stufifed with lemons branded B. C. C. As a result, the Usurping Ring fell like Trowbridge's goat, beneath tlie shocking blow of their own boomerang, and later arose a "sadder but wiser" institution.

No difficulty was experienced in getting a large gathering of loyal classmates to a Class Smoker (it should be called Class Booze, the term "Smoker" having almost lost its sense). All the wrangling of the cohorts of the two factions was forgotten in the wonders of Bacchus' cheering glass, and here the arms of war were laid aside, and the lion lay down beside the lamb in goodly fellowship. All that was needed to complete the love-feast was another eloquent eruption of Mt. ClaGGETT. Work again resumed, the Class began to hear warning voices, as of the night, whispering "O, ye of little faith, shrink not from Crime as of old. for do ye not hear on all sides that once to understand Crime as ChesnuT under- stands it brings joy to the Junior Camp forever ; and rewards the labors of a few with the passing mark — seldom more?"

Prof. Harlan broke his record in 1907 by relating a funny story at 6.1.5 P. M. on Janu- ary 16. This unusual departure gave genuine pleasure, and the Historian was particularly charged to incorporate this historical fact in this record. Don't forget the date — it might happen again.

Prof. Brantly is supposed to have a new cigar this year ; however there are old stu- dents who hold that it is the same old stogy. 1909 was very proud to have pROF. BranT- i.v's photograph taken with them, and hopes he can withstand the consequences.

As the sea-shell reflects the pearly rays of brilliant beauty to delighted eyes, so the University Law School reflects the peculiar beauty of its Faculty's influence in the suc- cess of its sons. Such men as Brantly. Poe, Stockdridge, Gorter and the others lend a

141

charm to these hallowed walls, and fortunate, indeed, are the young men of their day who come into the upiftinp sphere of their powerful minds. The prospect is most pleasing, and every man awaits witli emotion the days when each Professor shall lecture directly to him. The (lavs are gliding swiftly, and our first winter of law is past and with it the "winter of our discontent." The lovely spring approaches, bringing new ideas and brighter hopes. The dark days have given place to days of sunshine, gladness and flowers. Behold it is spring, and

"In the spring a livelier iris changes on the burnished dove. In the spring a young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love."

JUNIOR CLASS PROPHECY.

HAVING liad the good fortune (?) to be elected Class Prophet for the Junior Class. I immediately looked up the articles which had been written by my predecessors. Some of these had extracted their knowledge of the future while in a comatose state (perhaps after a banquet), others had consulted Mind Readers, and a few had private methods not disclosed. I tried all of these souices and found them wanting, so I had to wait until some time after I graduated to write this unvarnished tale of the various walks of life in which I met some old classmates.

"There is a divinity that shapes our ends. Rough-hew them as we may."

N. B. — I wish no one to be offended by any remarks in the following, as I want it to be understood that I do not stand sponsor for the vagaries of that fickle maid. Dame Fortune.

After having been a tenant by sufferance for six months, my landlord politely, but firmly, requested me to move. Thus I sold ofif the few books I had gotten together and said good- bye to Law. This was in the year 1915. I feel that this state of affairs was due to the fact that CuRR.\N, with his customary executive ability, had together with Fisher, Innerarity, Palmis.^no, Wenchel and Burke, perfected an organization, representative of all the

leading races, tluis f,'anicrinf; all of tlic practice lying arf)un(l loose. It will serve to show their power to mention that they liad sucii men as Ij.oyd, W'arnkr, Gr.ASS, Hutchins, Kaufman, and other such prodigies of learning, associated with them on a "contingent fee" basis.

I left for 1 'hiladelphia, where my employers were located, a few days after closing my office. The first thing after reaching there, I stopped in a tonsorial parlor, near the station. After settling back comfortably in tlie cliair, the "first face" of all the Class confronted me. It was sweet Zf.ck, and he still had that unutterably w isc look ( which, however, was not a true index of his capabilities). His white suit looked very nice, and I could easily see that he was king among the manicurists about the shnj). lie had forgotten me and I thought, though sadly, that it was better so.

After locating my employers, I spent a fo.v flays in [jrcparation and then started on a trip. The first place I struck was Jonesvillc, I'a. Tliis was the ty])ical country town, with the usual general store, one hotel with l)ar attaciioi, church, etc. After registering, I found to my surprise my old friend Jonks behind the bar. I ic called one of Iiis boj's to take charge, and we had a heart-to-heart talk on old times. He said he owned the hotel, the general store, was justice of the i)eace, sheriff, constable, and he was thinking of taking up the study of medicine, as he explained that it would com" in handy in conjunction with his undertak- ing establishment. I forgot to say he was deacon and pillar of the church.

I stopped at Pittsburg for a week, reaching there late one afternoon, and not having much to do I strolled around downtown, as usual. I saw old W \.\ r in a beer store. He was employed as IJouncer. and lie said he handled "just the worst men who ever walked," in a sort of whiskey-tenor voice : so I left. Taking a car at the corner. I bought a paper and settled back to read. I saw in big black headlines. "Is District .Attorney RosE a (jrafter?" and became very much interested in this article; so much so that the conductor finally said "fare, please." for the third time before I realized that he was addressing me. Upon looking up I saw the good-natured face of IIoi:\. W'e clinched, and after we broke away, he pointed out II \rt.m.\n on the front nf the car. gently turing the brake. IIokn ex- plained tliat on account of their delicate const'tutions both of them had been forced to take outdoor positions. lie said RosK was the same hallow who was in the junior Class with all of us.

.•\t Lniontowii. I'a.. I met (Ik.vnt. who had just recovered from an accident.

Walking down the street looking "onward and upward," as was his wont, he had com- pletely otrr-looked an open grating, thus falling and sustaining some minor injuries. He told me that CIraiiam wanted to take his case against the owner of the premises, but it seems that ("iKant was dubious as to his (Gr.miam's) ability. (luAii am argued that he had graduated from I', oi Md., and (jrant said that granting that was true, he himself had done the same thing, so that this fact was not conclusive evidence as to h's ability.

I met I'rown in Connellsville the very next evening, and found that he was a successful farmer. lie confided to me that it was wonderftd, in his opinion, that more of our former classmates had mn studied agricultural pursuits, for which they were probably better fitted, and stated that he had been compelled to refuse work to Bkiscok & WiiiTiC that morning, on account of their lack of knowledge of even the simplest part of farming.

In Hagerstown I saw Hihn in the station; he announced the departures and arrivals of the different trains, and also sold the Hagerstown Almanac. He seemed to be standing the severe mental strain incident to this position very well. I walked out as usual that night, and in front of a one-night-stand circus, who should I see but RtrTH, who was roar- ing through a megaphone in a voice of thunder (I remember he always had a "base" voice). At intervals he would take the chance to talk with me, and told me that Forman was mak- ing good on the stage in melodrama, acting with success, such parts as Big-Hearted Jim, Chinatown Charlie, Jesse James, etc. I walked inside the tent, at Ruth's invitation, and was treated to an exhibition of weight-lifting, the equal of which I never again expect to see. A bar of iron weighing 300 lbs. was tossed around by some young Hercules as though it were but a straw. I asked Ruth who this young Sampson was, and, as he merely laughed, I again looked and recognized my old classmate, RequardT, who was taller, if possible, than before.

I arrived in Cumberland a day or so later, and being sadly in need of furnishings, went into a large department store. I must say that I was more than surprised to see Barton ; he certainly made a fine-looking floorwalker. I never saw a better one, especially in a small city. He greeted me cordially, and we had quite a conversation. He informed me that Garonzik had returned to the land of sunshine and fruit — and garlic, where the Roman law holds sway. Barton also said that Lewis was suffering from an exaggerated ego. He did not think there was anything alarming in his condition, which had been superinduced by his election to the Cumberland City Council. I thought I had detected latent symptoms of this while he was in the Junior Class with me. That night I went to the theatre. The play was fairly good, but I was yawning, when suddenly Rosenstein stood before my aston- ished eyes. He was billed as the "Original Hot-Air Artist." I watched him closely and he seemed nervous, but bravely began a tale which roasted the country rubes. A dead silence settled over the house. There was something ominous in this deathly quiet, and I vaguely felt the impending calamity. A murmuring now permeated the theatre, and as Rosen- stein reached the part in his story in which he began "The sod-busters and root-pullers," etc., a hoarse roar of rage burst from the gallery, and eggs, vegetables, and all sorts of movable articles beat a sickening tattoo on poor Rosenstein's face and head. Gentle reader, let us take this as an example.

I then returned to Baltimore for a short time and found that Beck had gone into the fur niture instalment business. He said that it ran in the family. He also said the two Gold- sTone boys were in the clothing business, advertising as the "Goldstone Twins." I saw Claggett while in Claiborne, and he was the typical county politician, and still referred to "What Papa Says" — we had better hopes of Claggett than this.

Poor old Gressett was in trouble. It seems that he was fond of a certain young lady, knowing that there were some things which when discovered after a binding promise of marriage is given, are no defense, so in order to make certain he had nearly scalped the girl, in testing her hair, and she was blind in one eye as the result of his efforts to discover whether or not that member was the real goods. I felt very sorry for him.

I saw Chambers while in a boiler factory on business. He was drawing up a contract

145

with the owiKT. and I asked him as best I Ccnld aho\c tlie din linw he couhl concentrate his thoujjhts. He said he was noise-proof, hivinfj been throufjli tlie Junior year.

1 went to .Annapolis one day and by pood hick met old W'riciit, the .same old serious, kindly chap. He informed me he was general counsel for a large corporation and that was what had brought him to .Annapolis at this time (^i the year (it was while Legislature was in session). He told me that CiRIFFI.v was the Denii of the Ilonesdalc School of Law for Women, and that Mkncici. was conducting the course of Domestic Relations.

At the theatre the other evening I saw some l'ni\ersit\' men wlm were clever clog dancers, and I wondered if they liad learned to shuffle tlieir feel in tlie junior Class.

Other men I .^aw whose names I did not know. Some were higli in the walks of business, some were professional men, and some were running elevators, but it is remarkable how few of them became good lawyers.

"Many are called, but few are chosen."

^he Student's Toast.

HATH EVER LOVE ESCAPED NUMBERS!

Here's to Thee, Siveet :

I look upon the wine when it is red,

And in a moment I will toss it down In honor of the only reigning Queen Who never wore a crown. For well, indeed, I know

A Queen thou art — Thou reignest undisturbed O'er my poor heart.

Here's to Thee. Dear:

The second glass of rosy-golden joy

lias gone as went the ruhy wine above;
