He is the son of (losse Onno Gorter. wIto was born in Amsterdam, Holland, in 1818. His mother vas an affable and cultured lady from the Eastern Shore of Maryland, in vSomerset County. Her name was Mary Ann I'old, born in 1826. 'i'hroufjjhout tlie strife of the Civil War, whicli was then wag-ing, and amid all the hardships and disa])])ointments incumbent thereto, the subject of this sketch then lived near the old Relay House, in Haltimore Countv. Has'ing been made a child of destiny by the force of circumstances then im|)end- ing, the then young and alert Gorter was made to feel the ])owerfu] hand which was surrounding lum and concomitant sets of forces which were against him. Ha])])ily, however, near the close of the Civil War, his ])arents removed to llalti- more City, where he resided until 1870. During this time judge (^lorter attended the Maguire v^chool on Cathedral street. bVom this time on, Gorter's career was by no means fixed. Things of the world were heavy, and the burden which it carried with it was great and heavv. In 1872, he therefore entered the i)re])aratory school of St. John's College at Annapolis, and was graduated from the College in June. 1878, with the degree of liaciielor of Arts. After this, from 1878-1879, he studied law in Annapolis, in the office oi Alexander H. Hagner. Subsequently he taught in the Public Schools of Anna]iolis. In June, 1881, the noble Gorter was admitted to the Bar and practiced his profession in llaltiniore City until August, 1907, at which time he was appointed judge on the Su])reme llench of llaltiniore City bv Governor W'arlield. During November of 1''07 he was overwhelmingly elected to the Supreme I'>ench by jjopular vote. Having served his State in the State vSenate, he made a record which doe^ n(jl have an equal anywhere — for the sake of the Right he fought; for the com- mon good of the connnon people he ga\e his blood, and all Maryland renders thanks to him for his in\aluablc service. To this great man our own L'ni\crsil\- conferred the degree of I.b.l'i. in 1881; IJ,.D. in 188,?. St. lohn's College also conferred upon him llic degree of Master of .\rls in 18S7 lionorarv. 6 A NfJO^ fj'^^ 'I'liroughout the lent^lli of this niaiTs career, no e\i(lenoe of cahimm or injustice has yet been accredited to liim. h'rom I'JOl \\y imtil the ])resenl. judge (iorter has been a constant and lirilhant lecturer in our School of Law. The various chairs which he has held from time to time are, namely : E(|uity, Evidence, Commercial Law and Pleading. l!eing about to end the biograi)hy and tribute to the man whom we adulate m this article, let this one statement suffice for what it is worth in intrinsic value, namely: that no great and good man needs ])raise or lowers thrust U])on him either while living or dead. Judge Gorter has lixed liis life and has served both State and his fellow-man nobly and well. Justice bows at her own altar for the insi)iration which his ]iersonality affords. ( )ur State Government renders to him a meed of thanks for the service which he has rendered. Everv student, whether he be Law, Medicine or Pharmacy or Dentistry, feels that his life has been insjjired by the grand manner of the man's conduct, and the devoting and unsel- fish interest which he showed in them. lie is a man, taken all in a' ITkndrix. IN MEMORIAM J^rlimauJi J. B. (gorgaB, KM,, MM,, B33, Who Departed This Life Wednesday, April 8th, 1914, City of Baltimore. Requiescat in Pace. ERDINAND JAMES SAMUEL GORGAS was born in Win- che£;ter, Va., July 27, 1834. His parents were John De Lancy and Mary Ann Gorgas. When a child he removed to Carlisle, Penn., where he was educated, and later graduated at Dickerson College in 1858 with the degree of A.B. After attending the Baltimore College of Dental Surgery he received the degree of D.D.S. in 1854 and the degree of M.D. from the University of Maryland in 1863. After serving some time as a volunteer surgeon in the United States Army he became the Dean of the Baltimore College of Dental Surgery. This posi- tion he held for over twenty-five years. After a time he withdrew and organ- ized the Dental Department of the University of Maryland and was Dean of this department from 1882 to 1911, when he retired, following a stroke of paralysis. Dr. Gorgas was one of the leading authorities on dental surgery in this country, and was a contributor and editor of scientific articles to many maga- zines and journals. He was for many years editor of the American Journal of Dental Surgery, also editor of Harris' Dental Dictionary and Principles of Practical Dentistry, also the author of a book entitled Dental Medicine. He was very active in all branches of Masonry up to about twenty years ago, since which time he has been consent to let others do the work in which he used to take such a delight. Entering St. John's Lodge in Carlisle, Pa., in 1857, he rose in rank until he becam.e Grand Master in 1878. He was buried with Masonic rites in Loudon Park Cemetery, April 11, 1914. A widow and two sons by his first wife survive him. We can't but be impressed with a life so full of energy — well spent for the sake of his profession — the spirit and the will to do. For while Dr. Gorgas was not an idealist — never having attempted a creation — yet his indefatigable energy to perfect and complete excellent beginnings renders him equal to none in his profession, both as a pioneer and constructive genius. His many admirers, friends and former pupils have also paid in glowing terms their tribute to a great man, and the name of Gorgas shall be honored wherever dental science shall have a following. HOWARD NASON FREEMAN, M. D. <1 NNOf-^ V"/ l^oiuari NaBOu iFiTrman, H. i. 5g;-|| UT of the frightful turmoil of strife and struggle, there comes a time when the starry hosts above bring their powers to bear upon the consciences of men, that these men may be proclaimed to the w^orld and whomsoever it concerns for what they are and for what they have done. As an adequate expression of our admiration and our respect, we shall not sing to him a funeral dirge, nor garland his grave with roses when dead, for we belie\'e in jjraising while alive, but we shall s])eak only as we know him to be while li\ing. Therefore, the fittest subject wliom this space may claim, is none other than Howard N. Freeman, AI.D. vSomewhere in the green vales of Maine, not far from Presque Isle, the subject of this sketch was born thirty-two years ago. L'nlike the fortunate children of many, born within the midst of countless millions of wealth and all the glittering glamour of gold, he was nothing less than the child of destiny, whose beaten i)ath was yet to be worked out by himself. Throughout his younger years he was struggling against the vicissitudes of an unkindly disposed world, only to fmd that he had not yet risen above the jilane to which he asi)ired. Having done his best struggling against the forces and misfortune to which he was sulqected, he liecame i)artly reconciled to his seemingly inevitable ])light, and hence entered into the avocation of shoemaking. Not long, however, did he pursue this policy before that unsatisfied brain craved for higher things. Here he realized that his psychical and .-esthetic side must be developed more, or else his fondest ho])e should be crushed. Therefore, right within the midst of all things which held out discouragement towards him, he again took u]) his litcrarv work, and was graduated from the Haverhill High School in I'-'Ol. Dr. I'T'eeman was now disjxjscd to take uj) the studv of medicine. He felt that within him lay something which could at least hel|) allay the bitter ])angs brought to humanitv through disease. Jn order to do this, it was necessary that he ha\e funds which he did not have at that time. Diligently and by the sweat of his brow, he worked toward this end until the fall of 1''04, whereupon he entered the I'.altimore Medical College. He successfully linished his lirsl year in medicine but again came the monster of misfortune with which he had to grapjile. I ience, instead of being graduated in n.edicine in l''OS, he attended school awhile 10 Nl^Oh/ If'i^ and worked. In l')12 he was ^radnated from the I'.altimcjre Medical College with the degree of Doctor of Medicine. During his work at the ISaltimore Medical College, Dr. Freeman became most proficient in Obstetrics under that illustrious man, Dr. J. M. H. Rowland. He received the medal offered for best work in the field of Obstetrics and, having been graduated, it was no surprise that he should become Chief Resident Obstet- rician at the [Maryland General Hospital. He held this position from 1912-1913 and did work there wonderfully well. In 1913 Dr. Freeman became Chief Obstetrician to the Maternitv Depart- ment of University Hos])ital, where he worked under that i)rofound man. Dr. L. E. Neale. While here he has worked uj) the maternity work, both inside and outside, to a standard which it has never before enjoyed. With all this, he has seen that the outside work has been done properly, and no labor has yet been too tiring for him to slight it. Being a young man and |)ossessing such a skill and lo\e for his work as he does, we ])redict for him that he shall yet become a shining light in his particular branch of his ]^rofession. In conclusion, let us say that no man was ever more worthv of the title which he wears. For his love of truth and honor we esteem him ; for his knowl- edge and his painstaking care with students we cherish him, and for his love of the right we honor him ; and, moved by the same motives, inspired by the same instincts, his being vibrates the same thought as did the noble Celsus: "PoY ivhether it he on the scaffold Iiig/i, Or in the battle's van, The fittest place ivhere man can die, Is Inhere he dies for man." Nkvins B. Hkndrix, A.B., A.M. 11 S.JJSk ANNOi^ ff'-^ Eittcnal /^^ ^ IE ohject of this editorial is neither to teach, nor to find fault, nor to apologize. This Book has been written. The material has been placed together. It shall have to stand for what it is worth. However, there are certain things within this Book which some people will never appreciate or realize. The statements made herein have been spoken with a most kindly feeling toward him to whom they might be applicable. The things which have been left unsaid are, in our judgment, sufficient to atone for all the sins which we may have committed. Each character herein described has been made a psychological subject for study — when we struck hard there was a motive for it. 'J'herefore, let many whom we cannot please pass this liook on to someone else and let the other party be the judge. ( )n. the other hand, we ask a little indulgence that we may speak concerning the management and financial support of the Year I'>ook in our .School. The University of Maryland is the only large university in the whole country which does not support financially, to some extent at least, the publication which is its best asset, and at the same time its most ])otent avenue for an advertising medium. It is also the only large university whose various faculties do not in some wav or the other have a governing hand on the lioard which ])Uts the Book out. Thirdlv. it is the only university of any size whatsoever which does not send one of the l)ublications to the various libraries of the schools from which it draws through- out the country. \\'e do not mean to assume the role of, nor to be dictator to, the Einancial Committee or Board of our School, but \vc do think that they could and should take some interest in the ])roduction of the thing which means more to the school than it does to the student. ']"() those who are about to become our successors in this line of work, let our congratulations be extended. We do not envv you of your position, but rather we pity you and condole for vou. Vou shall have manv battles to light, and many words to pass before your task is ended with your F>ook. b'or the sake of all men who it may or ma\- not concern, let the whole I'ni- \ersit\- bod\- know that after this edition of Ti:rk,\ .MariaI':. the dedication of the ISook is forthcoming to, and legallv belongs to the .Medical l)e])artment in B'U), and that the Editor-in-Chief has the ])riviledge to choose the man as he thinks most lilted for the place. 12 iFaiTUiFll N the annuals of litcrar\- history i)crliai).> no pnhlication receives more adverse and unwarranted critieisin than a Collej^e Annual ( )f ah books it should be taken the least serious, in most instances it is taken the most serious, and why? l^eoause most of the jokes are facts and most of the facts are jokes. Those of you who think too much has been said in reference to your life as it has made coUej^e history, be thankful that we did not tell the whole truth on you. Those of _\()U who feci certain you should have had more said about you ; in fact, that y(ju have been slighted, be content, ^'ou have no idea what we nii<,dTt have said if we had had the time and space at our (lis])osal. No attempt will be made to n.ame this article. It will just be a few words in or out of seasons, take them as you may and name them as you choose. The writer has no apologies to offer to the literary geniuses of the foot or no ijromise of a style which future aspirants in making literary history nuist follow, to make. Having an indi\idual. if not characteristic way of putting this up to you, wc proceed to write that which we intend. h'irst it would seem htting in this connection, and es])ecially as this is conceded to be a college book and in many instances, I am afraid, more or less a chronological catalogue of college events, that I shovdd discuss briefly some of the histor\' made by the Class of 1913 during the four years of its existence at the University of [Maryland. Having disposed of this as I promised, in a brief manner, since the actual history we did not make has been passed by, we proceed to more interesting fields of thought. 1 am sure you would enjoy this article more if I would become i)ersonal and use names in what is to follow, but belie\ing the theor\- that true literary geniuses can write in such a way that everybody knows what they are writing about, but nobody can e.xi)lain it, 1 am not going to grant you this wish which your idle curiosity desires. W'c have been noted as a class by sticking to what we, in class assembled, have voted to do. Just to point out a few instances: We decide definitel\- to have a h(jlida}' and go away rejoicing. Next day, with all the men of the class absent, and only the mugwumps and a few others present, we decide it would get us in wrong and, while we wanted to act like men, we are afraid. ( )h hell, what's the use; we all go to class as usual. Again we decide not to take an examination which is not even required, again the whiiuperers come around with the old cry, "you are gonna get you-rself in wrong" — result: the examina- tion. It would seem that this were enough, but ()! ye gods, the worst is yet to come. Desiring to get out a college book that was worthy of the name and one that was original and had some individuality about it and so as to make this issue of the Ti'.KKA Al.\Ki.\i'; stand out for all time as a model for College Annuals the world over, we decided that in the general cont(ntr of the book we should de])art as much as ])ossible from the old dried and clear-cut methods used in the [last in ])ublications of this kind. As usual, it was easy to show the men what we wished and soon, in the regular course of events, we decided that it was fitting at this time that our pictures appear in the Tkrr.v ]\I.vri.\1v dressed as men and not as if prei)ared by 15 S.JI.Si et.lVA/Of^ ''/"/ the undertaker to pass on by eternal route to spend the future, God knows where. l)Ut the next day you ask what happened? It's easy to answer — you already know — we appear in the book in the same okl way and in the future, as you turn over the pages of tlie 1915 Tkkra Mariak those of you who are to blame for the appearance of so many corpses which stand out on each page and which you can't recognize unless the name be written beneath, tell your children to take to heart the lesson so well taught. When you decide to be a man, be one, believing yourself to be right; stick, no matter what the odds may be. Don't be a molly- coddle like your old dad. Be a man. But for all that, we love the Class of V)\?, and in manv ways we are proud that we are members of it. Perhaps of all the classes ever attending the Univer- sity of Maryland it has more average men in it than any other. So here's to the average man ! The man who meets a crisis withcnit fear. The man who will always come back. The man who's your friend when you need hiiii. The man who meets life face to face and makes good. This being a many sided article, and touching on every phase of college life, it is natural for the Faculty to furnish a few lines of di\ersion ai this point; but they, having been so thoroughly done up in another part of this book by a much more competent writer to handle such a stupendous task, I will refer you to that article and let them rest in ashes here. The European war being the foremost topic of discussion among the Uni- versity students, it must come in for its share here. The battles in the Eastern countries are .small com]:)ared to the one ( in words ) between those of the students who favor the Germans and those on the Allied side. The \arious exjjlanations offered for the course of the war, the result of the several battles would no doubt be of great benefit to the participants in the war, and I am certain of amusing interest to posterity had it (posterity) an opportunity to view these pages in an unlimited way. I would almost be tempted to chronicle them here, but such not being the case I i)ray vour indulgence and pass on to other things. The Mexican situation is so overshadowed by the colossal conflict in Europe that most of us o\erlocjk it entirely, and scarcely remember that the benelits of a lasting peace which is at present enjoyed by us are due to a cautious and great President who has the Wisdom to follow the lead of his fearless and far-seeing Secretary of State, W. J. liryan. In the whole history of the United States we have never before had such a brilliant and versatile .Secretary of State, and ne\er before have we had need of such a great mind to direct our Affairs of State. We are indeed a fortunate ])eople. Class of P'l.^ and others who have sufhcicnt interest to read this article. 1 bid vou farewell. Pe not critical. Pc fair. If you like it say so, otherwise keej) (|uiet. There is no excuse to make for a line in this book. Everyone is free to judge it as he may. Those who like it, we thank vou. Those of you who do not, we don't give a darn what you think. We haxe written what we ha\e written. Joiix D.\xii:i. PoiiiNsox. A. P. 16 a.r/fJOfy //"/ luari nf Srrjmtta ^ Tiros. I"i:m..

This space was Thought's Mysterious seat. What beauteous visions filled this spot. What dreams of pleasure long forgot. Nor hope, nor joy, nor love, nor fear Has left one trace of record here. Beneath this mouldering canopy Once shined the bright and busy eye, But start not at the dismal void. If social love that eye employed If with no lawless lire it gleamed But through the dews of kindness beamed That eye shall be forever bright When stars and suns are sunk in night. Within this hollow cavern hung The ready, swift and tuneful tongue; If falsehood's honey it disdained .\nd when it could not praise was chained If Ijehold in virtue's cause it spoke, Yet gentle concord never broke, This silent tongue shall plead for thee. Where time unveils Eternity. Say, did these fingers delve the mine? Or with the envied rubies shine? To hew the rock or wear a gem Can little now avail to them. But if the page of truth they sought Or comfort to the mourners brought. These hands a richer mead shall claim, Th.m all that wait on wealth or fame. Avails it whether bare or shod The feet the paths of duty trod; If from the bowers of ease they fled To seek affliction's humble shed: If grandeur's guilty bride they spurned And home to virtue's cot returned. These feet with angel's wings shall vie, And tread the palace of the sky. Nevins Byford Hendrix, A.B., A.M. 23 HOSPITAL STAFF Mutu^rattij ll|nBpUal i^auBt g>taff 'k W. J.

The one thing about him which is hard to understand is his jjccu- liarly suscejitible vaso-n:otor nervous system.

Here stands a character oi whom little is known. His general acquaintances were as distant on earth, from the average man, as are the stars above fn^m the planets on the opposite side of the globe. While a student here he had unusual desires to become a great man, but the expression of his innermost de- sire was always hidden to himself. He lives alone, it is said, and has a few good friends, notably among whom is John lUackmer. The distinguishing feature about him is his feigned dignity. R. C. CLINKSCALr;S, Anderson, South Carolina.

To Clinkscales we shall have to bow for the brilliant radiancy which his bright red hair affords us. He only came to us in our junior year, therefore his history is by far incom- plete.

He was beautiful in manners, affable in affectation, and feigned in his ])hilosophy.

Irres])ective of the opinion of others, for us. it suffices to say that he did his best and that Pat Durkin's name has never been found on the "'flunked" list.

Professor David Ellner has never had much to say since having become associated with the Class of 1915. His scruples are as pure as blue-white diamonds, his soul as jierfect as the truest steel.

When seen or thought of, we cannot hut recall great men when we think of our Kelly. Having come to us in his junior year, he made more friends and founded for himself a repu- tation which is mostly to be envied. The story is said to be written concerning him and a certain pipe which he bought and kept for six years. It is impossible to ascertain his reasons for such an act. Throughout his junior year he rendered valuable first aid to Dr. Whitney when the occasion demanded it, and we go not amiss when we say that Kelly is a good chemist. For his worthiness he was elected Secretary to Class in 1913-1914, and Chairman of Honor Committee in 1914-1915. Today he is a luember of the Phi Chi Fraternity and Randoljjh Winslow Surgical Society. Ray Robinson Kkrkow, Seattle, Washington. Washington University.

This ycjung man did "his best" while a medi- cal student and, for a change, during his leis- ure vainly attem])te(l to show Hendrix the why's and wherefore's that Russia and the Allies would never control Europe, and the lieight of his argument reached its climax when l)ill Coleman came into l\oom No. 12 and said, "Gentlemen, you are making too much noise in this room."

It i3 said of our friend, who hails from that decidedly rural district of North Caro- lina, and who carries with him some of the rural etchings in his individual characteristics, which have not been entirely rounded off by his four years' medical career, that since he has turned out the brush on the superior labia of his oral cavity that he need only the W'est- erner's sombrero to change his identity from that of a ploughman to that of a Mexican ranchman. But with all these markings of his peculiar characteristics, Lackey will be there when the roll is called and to make his personality felt in the future as he has done in the past, since he is a graduate of Oak Ridge Institute, N.

No student can but sav that his methods and works have forecasted by im])artial and honest policy.

But one day he falls fo' th' charms o' that guy Morpheus durin' skin clinic (an' y'u couldn't ezackly blame him fo' that), however, stead o' bein' satisfied with takin' a snooze, he's gotta perch his feet up over th' heads o' every- body on th' row below him to disturb th" ecjuilibrium o' him who's givin' th' clinic.

W'e's all gotta admit that feller Lowry sure has come out some since he fust hit this burg.

Many have received from their Alma Mater appointments as demon- strators or instructors, accepted the honors offered to them, lived on with the institution which had given so much to them, continually broadening and dee])ening their knowledge of the psysiological functions of the body, the ])athologi- cal changes which arise, the prevention and cure of diseased conditions, until this knowl- edge of the changes — both normal and abnormal — which take ])lace in the human bo(l\' has become i)art of themselves. Some, by their earnestness of ])uriiose, conscientious application to the work before them, powers of concentration and intelligent gras]) of that division of the medical sci- ence which they have chosen as their own, become so deeply learned that the highest honor accorded to a medical man has been offered to them — a professorship in their own Uni- versity. Many graduates of the old University of Maryland have entered other institutions. Some at tirst serving as internes in liosjiitals and later as visiting i)liysicians or sur- geons— gradually working their way up until they have become a power in the medical world. Others have entered, as instructors or lecturers, other colleges or universities. Not being satisfied to say of certain diseases — Aetiology unknown, there is no specilic treat- ment— Prognoses — incurable, they have expended time and money in an attem])t to get at the very root of an obscure disease and to bring light into the darkness which has as yet never been jienetrated. Still others have given the best that is in them in service to their country, entering the Health Department, the Army or the Navy, ever ready at a moment's notice to do their best in the alleviation of suff'ering or distress; to study into the conditions from which disease springs and to study those diseases seen in foreign countries — not at home. Gentlemen, of all the world, the Graduating Class of 1915 is about to come among you, and once more it becomes the duty of the historian to prejiare for ])rint a history the class has made during the past four years. This is not easy, because as a whole the class has been extremely active and energetic. In the latter ])art of September and early October, 1011, there might have been seen making their way from the various railroad stations of the city, towards the University of Alaryland, young men of various nationalities and social conditions. 91 ^'M'^k'^ i^^<* All these young men came here for the same puri)ose, namely: to begin the ascent of that liigh mountain, the top of which cannot be reached, because it means all knowl- edge absolute and perfect, of conditions which affect the human body, both in health and disease. ( )ctober the second, the University opened its doors and the upward climb of the mountain of knowledge began. The smiling faces of the v^ophomores seemed everywhere. In little grou]is they stood ever ready to touch the stranger on the shoulder and say: "Are you a I*>eshman? We want you,"" "Come with me" and forthwith conducted the stranger to a long line of those similarly treated. They roped us together, ordered us to turn our coats inside out, rolled uj) our trousers to the knee, painted our faces and legs and, after arranging us so that all might be seen, took our picture for the Annual. We were ordered bv the Sopho- mores t<j cleanse our faces, co;nb our hair and brush our teeth each morning l)efore appearing at the L'niversity. lUit this, it has been said, some refused to do on general principles, and the blue cap with the white button was seen on no Freshman's head. As time went on we gathered force and strength, became accustomed to the changed conditions of our lives, better accjuainted with one another until one day in the early part of ( )ctober we met in the Histological Laboratory, where olficers for the ensuing year were chosen. In the clav time, ascent of the mountain of knowledge took up the hours of the am- bitious I'Veshman, anxious to become a Sophomore, for then could he not get back at those who had hazed him by striking at the incoming hrst-year men? At night, the lights, the movies and the girls lilled the hours, the dearest of the day — with \isions tair and brave deeds done — "^'es! — Father is not going to be disa])pointed in me — Medicine isn't so hard, after all. All you need to do is get a good fair gri]) on the subject and ap])ly the principles — I like Anatomy — that's one thing I can learn. Tomor- row night I'm going to start in, and study every night — but confound those words." Stumbling uj) the mountain, more frequently at hrst, this Freshman Class kept going steadily ui)ward, becoming more and more accustomed to the rough, uneven road witli its numerous intersecting by-paths; tripping and falling become less frequent. r.ul this great iiig mountain of medical knowledge reaches far up into the cloud> and then' is a torturous, rough and broken road, \'ar\'ing in widlli. leading from its foot to the summit. .X'umerous by-paths lead off from the main road at different le\els of the ascent, twist- ing and turning to the right or to the left, at times hidden from \ iew b\' the undi'rbrusli 92 S.MSk A NNOf^ 'f"/- or oNcrshadowcd I))' tail trees, these narrow little paths at first (hverge from the road of ^■eneral knowledge and then turn about — lea 1 towards it, uniting' at a higher road. Since the world began, nian"s ambition has been to hnd out what is in him, how it acts and what makes it act. They have studied and thought what the\' learned or thought has been passed down to the next generation by tradition (jr recorded in books as theory or fact. This knowledge of the whole medical science, gathered from all parts of the world and by all nations, is the ruler, the guider, the controlling force and the power wdiich leads the struggling student over the main road from the foot towards the top of the mountain. Medical men themselves have thought it wise t(j make by-paths, and for each school of medicine to choose leaders, one for each ])ath. The University of Maryland chose its leaders and over the b_\'-paths called .\natomy, Smith was appointed to show the way. His time being occupied with those who had tra\'ersed the path for |iart of the dis- tance, Holland was i)laced in charge and liy his guidance the h'reshmen crei>t steadily forward and ui)ward. Three times a week, in the morning, he would meet this clas> in the old Anatomical Hall and, starting from there, would lead llie way o\er a delinite portion cd' the by-i)ath, each time extending the journey a little farther and farther from the starting point. The things he told about, the ologies met along the way, the faci;e, the tissues, the bones, the joints, the blood-vessels and nerxes, it did seem as if every structure in the bodv had a name bigger than itself. In the afternoon he would again lead tlie way along the ]iath, this time starting from that rcjom. the odor of which can be recognized long before the door is reached. Here, entering for the first time, the student turns pale and has a ])eculiar feeling in his epigastrium, liecoming hardened as time goes on, it was not an uncommon sight to- ward the end to see a student dissecting with one hand while holding a cheese sandwich in the other. Smith had another assistant and his name was Reeder. Tt was his duty to see that the student traveling the by-path of Anatomy turned aside now and then to pay partic- ular attention to little hillocks, holes, depressions and valleys seen on calcified tissue called bone. Over the by-path called Physiology, Hemmeter ruled the way, but his time being taken \x\i by those wdio had gone before, Conser was chosen to point out the route. 93 S.MSk^ NMO^y ff'^ Here we started from the old Chemical Hall — being instructed to read \.\\) — Oh, so many pages of what we were expected to meet on the way. Conser conducted our tour, pointed out the dangerous places and bridged o\'er the gai)s by giving direct statements which we could write in our note books and know what they meant afterwards. ( )ver the by-path called Chemistry, Dean Coale had full charge. In the hall named in honor of his branch of the medical science, he met us and guided us along the path of Inorganic Chemistry. From the eighty known elements, he would explain to us how the wonderful things in nature are composed by union, under the proper conditions, of exact weights of certain of these elen:ents. ISut, Coale was a busy man, his time being taken \.\\i with many duties, therefore it was his plan to start us well on the road and then turn us over to an assistant named Base. At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, we couragecnisly faced our leader, Uase, in his own particular oft'-shoot of the Chemical by-path. Marching two by two, in his i)ath, iiase would show us how, by union of an acid with an alkali, a salt is formed, he let us, following his formula on the board experiment Hcl & Na oh = Nacl & ILo. E\ aporation. W'c tasted common salt. The by-path of Materia Medica was govei'ned by v^liipley. It was his |)leasure to meet us in th.e old hall of anatomy and to carry us along this path leading through all ])arts of the world. The man\-, many kinds of plants seen growing in the valleys and on the hills were a source of wonder to us at tirst, but under the leadershi]) of our instructor we be- came familiar with the flowering world and learned that many beautiful plants contained deadly substances within. Sinsky, Shi])ley's chosen assistant, frec;uently met us and conducted us on little side trips from the by-paths of Materia Medica. These ])aths were somewhat rough and often neat calculations were rec[uired to avoid a bad fall. ( )n the toj) floor of a newer building another leader, Maldeis, would call us to- gether and ex])lain the marvels to be seen extending to the right and to the left from the beginning to the end of the by-])alh of Histology. To see these wonderful things, death of many animals was re(|uired: i)owerful glasses of high magnification were necessary to bring into focus the delicate lines not of man's formation and often, especially in the beginning, a most active imagination. 94 S.JISha^N^O'^ 'f'^ (Jiic day when well along the In'-path of Histology, Alaldcis called us aside and said: "Today we are going to take another path, running i)arallel with the one we have been fol- lowing." We started and we stared. Our eyes grew wide with wonder. Such twisting and folding; such multiplication and specialization, such turning and returning, so that that which was without was within. It was beytjnd the most \ivid imagination. This l)y-i)ath of Enibryolog\- was not long, but wonderful. Leader Cordell led the way ()\er the hjngest by-path of any. It seemed t<.) begin where the first — ted had the stomach-ache and following as tortu- ous nnite to continue on — to where? ( )ur hearts and our heads were full. Alany he down to rest. At the end of the allotted time for following these various by-i)aths, we were invited by each and every leader to step up and show on pai)er to what e.xtent our trip uj) the mountain (jf knowledge had deve!oi)ed our cerebral corte.x. When all these papers were handed in we bade each other farewell and started to that place from which we came, there to await the call to continuance of ascent, one-third of a year hence. Reader: We can^e back to the University — nearly every one of us, in early Octo- ber, 1912. True, there were a few faces missing, but the number was made up Ity those who had been climbing with us although in other universities. Hazing we had outgrcwvn, and the fun anticipated a year ago was forgotten. The incoming first-year class passed by us unmcdested. It seemed good to be back, to shake hands once more with the friends we had made, to know that our ])rofessors considered us worthy — for had they not ])assed us on? Then there were the old familiar seats in the mo\ies, and last, but by no means least, the i)rettv Baltimore girls to call on once again. With a rush, we set out over the \yell-kn()wn ])aths. Anatomy, fhysiologv. Chemistry and Materia Medica, but this time the climb was steei)er and when Smith called us out to follow him along the by-path of Anatomy, we loosened our belts and cut out our smokes, to keep up with his strenuous stride. He started us where Holland cast us off, and we followed him in this path to its end. Holland called us once more to his wonderful den and there we dug deep into the vitals of man. Continuing our journey over the by-])ath of Physiology, we were guided this year by Hemmeter himself. 95 '.JJ.SL ■a. NNOfy ff'^/- lie told US SI) clearly how the organs within us acted and while he was speaking it seemed as if we could look into the body and see each organ functioning. Henimetcr turned us over to his assistant, T'atterson, who led u--^ over a side i)ath to a den oi his own, wdiere he rigidly instructed us in the use of electrical stimuli to nerve or muscle. Chief Coale, of the by-path oi chemistry, again called on us to toe the line and to march after him over that ])ortion of the path as yet unknown to us. The signboards bore the letter C. These we followed to complexity. "Take this," said Coale: "H H — C — H, and keep it nigh, because by it you li\e or die.'' H We boys stuck close until we reached the formula C\,H-, ( >H then came a breach. "Come on," said one, "let's take one more," and then there rose a mighty uproar. C, li, OH = HC, H,, O, z Vinegar & H.O. Retreat, to the path come one and all and said, "Dear Coale, don't let us fall. To one side of this chemical by-path there was a building which bore the sign, "Physiologi- cal Chemistry," and the key of this building was in the possession of Todd. Todd called the roll every time. Starches, sugars, ])roteicls and fats. How often we wondered what we were doing. ( )ne day in a (|uiz — we're glacf it was his (Todd's) — we learned that life's method is attending to biz (business). The wide gate to the by- path of Materia .Mcdica swun.g open and there stood Shipley to greet us. k'or this leader we had worked before, but never as we did now. "Come on," said he, "and let me see what \ou'\'e learned of .\natomy." "Take this drug of a certain tree — Note its action on Physiology. Conii)ound this dose i)harmaceuticall\- and see the results of Chemistry."' Sliipkw had, tucked away behind the brush, to one side of the by-path of .Materia Medica a little house called "I^aboratory of Pharmacology," and in this house .\sper was the man who go\erncd. It was Asper's pleasure to call us tliere once a week and to re- cord in a little book a figure from zipj) to 10 behind each man's name. vSometimes he would not ask us (|uestions or to come to the board Imt would bring into the room dogs, chickens, rabbits or cats, and these we would feed white powders or green tal)lets. ( )ften instead of feeding by mouth, a long needle and a piston was used, the bitter dose being injected directly into a vein. Close to the jdace where tlie by-])atli of llislology united with the main road, another by-path was seen leading ui)ward and a signboard at one side informed us, stranger, that the jtath for the first part of the distance i>:issed through the region of llacteriology and for 96 d. NNO*'^ ff*¥ the remainder of the distance, which was long and very steep, the path would about so l)eculiarly that strangers had difficulty in maintaining a foothold or from becoming lost in the surrounding wilderness. This portion of the path was known as Pathology, and the end of it could not be reached until the stranger had rested, to come back fresh. ( )ne man had full charge of this path and his name was Hirsch. Hirsch had many assistants who, under his guidance, showed us, as we walked along, many strange plants, some of which were dangerous to the health of man. 'i'here were curious little red crooked stick^ surrounded by a blue background. These they told us had caused many men to sjjit blood. These were little bundles of bluish sj^herical objects, resembling bunches of grapes, — "Sto])hylococci," said the assistants, and we stared in wonder. Then there were long chains of (organisms having a white glistening center "an- thrax" whisi)ered some one who had seen them before, lie proved to be right. Hut the most cuiious thing of all was a small biscuit-shai)ed vegetable bug-adiplo- coccus found in the pus cell. These we saw plainly and turned away with a shudder. This i)orti(jn of tiie ])ath of Hirsch we were glad to have traversed before Christmas. When the Christmas holidays had passed, we came back to the University and rushed over the bacteriological jiart of the bacteriological pathological by-i)ath to the beginning of the ])athological ])()rtion of it. The path for some distance led through congested areas, steeped in blood and later on opened into an expanded country where destruction and degeneration greeted our eyes on all sides. As we jjassed along we noticed that the lioulders were bec(jming logger and bigger and the ])ath more crooked to avoid going over them. "What are these big roundish objects," we asked the assistants. They turned and said, "new formations, tell us what makes them grow, and your name will be known to fame." ( )n a gate which oi)ened into a little by-jiatii these words stood out in bold relief: "]')y-])ath of Medical Jurisprudence and Hygiene. Enter all and ye shall be taught by J. L. Smith, its ruler." We pushed the gate o])en and walked in. For a while, we trudged along the Aledical Jurisprudence portion of the path and learned the difiference between death by drowning and hanging. 97 S.M.SL. Finally, we canic to the Hygiene portion of the path and before going far, we saw clear! \ that life is a struggle to ward off death. Some germs pass through a porcelain liUer. The l)y-])ath of Minor Surgery next came into view, and the ruler of this great path was T(jni])kins. ( )ur legs and our arms were bandaged tight. Often our heads and our trunks disaiijieared from sight. Physical diagnosis next loomed into view, and the rulers of this by-])ath numbered two. Lockard and Zuljelin, often in vain, ])ounded our craniums words to retain. liaving climbed the mountain i)athways for another year, we met at the appointed time in Davage Hall and ])ounded our craniums for the proper answers to certain specific questions printed on papers placed before us. When the last question was answered, how happy we were to start fcjr the jilanes of nrdinarv folks. We — .^0 ])er cent, doctors — i)erhai)s. As we walked uj) the well-beaten path leading til the entrance of our University, on the first day of October, 1913, we saw many faces unfamiliar to us. All were not Freshmen, as we soon found out. A great number coming to us fmm the llaltimore Medical College, which had consolidated with the I'nixersity of Maryland during the i)ast summer. We. students nf the two medical schools, became friends without a jar. In un- s))(iken language, agreeing to stand by each other throughout the remainder of our ci lUcgc course. There was not much time for handshaking because the rulers o\er the various b}-])aths stood ready to l)egin the upward march. .Yearly all the by-])aths to be followed this year were unknown to us and those in charge of the paths we liad heard about and not seen. Won! from llirsch was receixed by us to continue our climb up the by-path of ])atlio](igy. "This year," he said, '"we will specialize, as we progress. There is the path of the cordio-vascular system to l)e exjjlored, the pulmonary path, most interest- ing and instructive, lies just beyond, and the path of the gastro-intestinal system is niagnilicent. 'i'here are few men who cannot ai)])reciate its delightful cur\es. The \ alley ol the genito-urinary system lies on our way. We wdl stop there and inspect its vvondrou> beauties before passing on to the highly sensitized ])ath ni the nervous system.'" We followe 1 tliis leader to the end of liis route and he was good to us. Notice was received from McCarty to hustle up and acconqjanv him o\ er the by-path ol I'liysical Diagnosis. lieing slight!}- familiar witli tliis ])ath. we lo^t no time in preliminaries. 98 3.JJ-Oh>%.Nfj»^ 'f'^ liy close inspection, we learned something- as we jjasscd along and through our sense of touch we became conscious of \-i])ratious sensations of varying" intensity, liy l)ounding- first in this spot and then in that, the different densities of matter was man- ifested to us and hearing, we soon learned, can become a fine art. Hark! Shipley calls, was our greeting one morning after we had bidden fare- well to her in our dreams. W'e lost no time getting started for the by-i)ath tn l)e fol- lowed on this occasion, because we knew that the trip wnnld be long, the climb steep and very rough. Thus the l)y-path nf Pathological Surgery began ol)li(|uely across the street from the University and extended far out into the wilderness of i5ay \'iew. There were two smaller paths leading off from the main one, b.ith running westward, one led to the land of Eutaw and the other to the region of St. Paul. I']), up, the main path, we climbed in the wilds, ( )ur reward, now and then, an occasional smile From the man wlm had mastered the route to the pile, L'nder which there lay hidden good deeds of worth while. Rejoicing, we come to the by-path of Practice. It was our intentinn to know this path as man had never known it before, but it did not take us long, under the guid- ance of \\'ilson, our leader, that life is shi.rt and that one man's head can hold just so much. vSaid he. There is two kinds of kn.ow ledge. ( )ne kind which man carries in ids heatl, the other kind is knowing how to get at it, the knowledge when needed for use. This was our cue and (iod knows, e\en so, we had all we could go. Typhoid fever, a young man had. Pneumonia had his mother. A dizzy spell was troubling dad. And, the goni — caught his brother. Once each week, Mitchell and Friedman, on diiferent days, would go with us over the by-path of Practice and pound into our brain cells the truth ]iointed out by Wilson. The by-path of Obstetrics was before us and Neale, the leader over this path, showed us the beauties to be seen on all sides, as we followed him along its curva- tures. Hidden mysteries were brought into view and explained in detail. We learned that all the beautiful things in nature are not exposed to the rays of the sun, many growing in shadows, bei ng rarely subjected to the brightness of day. 99 Now, the l)y-])ath of Thcra])c'Utics, started from the main road, ran for some dis- tance npward and then separated into two smaller paths, one leading ofif to the right, the other to the left, both winding their way npward, coming together again, shortly, before nniting with the main road at the higher level. Over this path of pre\ention and cnre two men rnled. When we had fulhjwcd them lo the i)lace of di\-ision, one leader wonld gnitle ns o\'er his path for a wdiile and then the other wonld show ns the delights of his. Jyockard took the path of Apjjlied 'rherai)enlics, and while he led ns, food was i)len- tiful l)nt never in excess. The i)ath of I'liysical 'i'herai)eutics belonged to (iichner, and to onr great joy he let ns swim in the waters of his many ponds and drink from his bubbling springs. In the midtlle of a by-i)ath from which we had, up to the j)resent time, been ex- cluded, stood Ashby, ruler of all the land which lie within its gates. The name of this ])ath was Gynecology, and it had been known to the world since the days of Eve. Ever keeping uj) with our leader as he walked along this path, we listened atten- tively to his description of our Creator's luost beautiful gift to man. Having tra\'ersed the i)ath ior consi(leral)le distance, our knowledge of the beau- tiful became more extensixe and before the end of the path was in sight we had learned a beautitul exterior luay conceal from view conditions of wretchedness and sorrow. There was a by-iiath called Pathological Chemistry, whicli was to us unknown '.mtil the smiling face of Whitney bade us come with him. lie told us manv inter- ■;sting things, as he led the way along the path t.i a building which we entered. in the building the knowledge gained, as we walked, became strengthened by ac- tual i)ractice. W'e analyzed various products of cell metabolism and counted the bk)od cells in a cubic milimeter of diluted serum. ■'Tin' by-])ath nl ( )])erati\-e Surgery, come in and .Martin will show xdu how to go IrdUi the beginning to the end,'" said the announcer one morning, as we aw-ike to the fact that another route u\> the mountain lav o])en to us. W'e followed .Martin fmni the head to the foot of this great path ;ind learned irnni liini swiftness in treating disease conditions, where siu'gical operations .-ire necessarv. The by-path of neurology was ])ointed out l)y S]iear, who said. "This path is mine, as you ])ass alimg it you will learn to think." Ascending or descending the tracks of the ]>ath, one did think and we thought. The more we thought, the more we found t.i think about. 100 a. N^JOf^ Ift^ Another by-path, the last to he followed this year, opened before us. It was the by-path of the eye, and Larun was the leader over this path. For awhile we studied the beauties of the Lake Lachrynalis and then turned our attention to a spherical body found near the lake. The strat of this body was pene- trated and we found within a dark ca\-ern filled with fluid. The end of tliis, our third year of climbing- the mighty mountain of knowledge, came in sight. We were glad to assemble in a hall and tell on i)a])er what we had learned as we climbed. The time to do this covered two full weeks and when the last (juestion had been answered, a call to the planes made sweet music in our ears. Reader: The historian has just lieard some one say "E.xaminations are right on top of us. Eye conies oft' on the 17th." Therefore it seems to him wiser to record the facts more briefly of this, we all hope the final year of our climl) up the mountain of knowdedge as undergraduates and devote more time to study. The by-path of Surgery, to be followed this year, was ruled over by men who had studied it for many years — Winslow and Warfield. We traxelled with them and not only strengthened our knowledge of surgical facts learned before, but stored in our brain cells memories of conditions seen for the first time this year. We learned how to set broken bones, reduce dislocations of joints and all other surgical operations important to know. Street, Wilson and Zubelin, the three learned men in medicine, controlled our progress in the second year of our climb U]) the by-path of Practice. We were introduced to all the conditions which might confront us as practition- ers and instructed in methods of relief to the suffering world. The cries of many babies attracted our attention to the by-path of Children. Three men who know the conditions along this path from the cradle to the age of the first vote showed us how to go and from them we learned gentleness, patience, and the proper methods to use in treating the symptoms of diseases affecting those in early life. The names of these three men were Mitchell, O'Donovan and Eockard. To go from one end to the other of the liy-path of Neurology requires two years of hard climbing. At the word from Spear, master of the path, we started to pass along that portion of the path over which we did not go last year. The cerebro-spinal and sympa- thetic nervous systems are subject to many diseases and we soon learned that alcohol is not the only thing wdiich will make a man stagger. The by-paths of Diseases of the vStomach was shown to us by Ilemmeter, who knows this path from end to end. 101 NfJO^ /f'^ Gaining- much knowledge as we passed along, it seemed wise to lis to impart some of our newly acquired information to certain lady boarding-mistresses but of poor digestions, they cared not to hear. Oh! what a big pocket-book, you dear boy, come here. In the fourth year of climbing, Xeale and Rowland accompanied us over the ( )b- stetrical by-path for the second time. W'e added much to the information, gathered last year and deepened the dents in our l)rain cells carrying obstetrical knowledg-e gathered, here, there and all over. \Vood and Larun, leaders of the by-i)ath of Diseases of the Eye, conducted us o\er this path in the last eight months of our climb as undergraduates of medical knowledge. In the old University building", as well as along the by-path, we studied the eye diseases likely to be seen by the practitioner, and in the University Hospital manv of these diseases were shown to us, ht)ping that they would be photographed in our memories. Merrick had charge of the by-path of diseases of the Nose and Throat. He led the way over this path and explained to us, in detail, how important it is to keep the U])i)er air jjassages free from contaminating organisms. .\s we passed along the by-path of Gynecology, for a second time, Ashby, Hund- ley and I'erry pointed out to us UKJst emphatically the importance of taking the best of care of the gentle sex. 'iMicy said, "'What the world is seeking is strong, healthy men and women." The by-path of ( )tology has been di\ided by nature into outer, a middle and an inner division. W'e started with Crouch, master of the path, at the outer end and made our way to- wards the inner. He explained to us, rei)eatedly, the conditions affecting the useful- ness of this path and told us many times how a doctor, by neglect, carelessness of im- l)roper treatment, can do more harm than good to the delicate structure met along- the way. The by-|)ath of ( )rtho])edic Surgery ruled o\er by Taylor has many cur\es and takes the shape of the bony structure of the human body. These curves ])roduced by changes in the structure of the discs supjiorting the body of the ])ath abo\e the pcKis were described to us as kvphotic, lordotic oschotic, depending u|)oii the direction of the cimcxitis and the concaxitv. It has been said that curved lines are the lines of beautv but in some instances the contrary seems true. This pmbably de])ends upon one's point of \iew. The l)y-path of the skin is plainly \isible to e\ery eye, but the little red hillocks in the distance often proved to be planes not elevations. How nfien we thought we saw papulev imtil G.ildirist, rider nf the ));ith, said we saw macules. 102 S>^mor iMrfttral ^rnpl^^ry N a certain November evening: in the year of our Lord 1943, having brought my earthly career to an untimely end by an indiscreet experiment with a well-known fat reducing agent, I approached the dark shores of the River Styx. As I followed the well-worn trail dcnvn to the bank, 1 saw in the deep gloom a shadow making its way toward me, and as it drew near I was greatly surprised and delighted to recognize my old classmate MotYett. We exchanged joyous greetings, for indeed, it was no small com- fort to meet a friend on such a journey. In answer to my inquiries concerning his ])resence there, he told me that having lost so much slee]) during the years of his lucrative practice of the healing art, he had hnally succumbed to exhaustion, and was now on making his way to the great Unknown. He had reached the river some hours ahead of me. but on attemi)ting to cross had been told .\^ by Charon that lUiie, the renowned surgeon, was on his way thither, and had ordered the boat held until his arrival. There being nothing to do but to wait, as not even the boat- man cared to risk the displeasure of such an eminent shade by going contrary to his commands, Moffett availed himself of the intervening time to indulge in his favorite oc- cupation of sleeping, only to awakan some hours later and find the ferry with its dis- tinguished passenger gone, and a notice that there would not be another trip for six hours. Resigning himself to the long wait, he was about to have another na]) when the noi.se of my ai)])roach disturlied him, and our meeting resulted from his investigation. While explaining thus to each other, we inadvertently turned into a little bv-path whicli brought us to the river bank a short distance below the regular landing i)lace, and as we were about to retrace our steps the unmistakable chugging of a gasolene engine broke the dismal silence, and marvelling that modern progress had penetrated even to this lost region, we awaited its api)roach with some curiosity. The sound drew nearer, and we made out a roomy looking cabin cruiser which ])ulled u]) to a small pier nearby, and a sjirightly looking shade leaped ashore. With a glad hail we recognized Hendrix, while from several other forms on deck came greetings in various well-known voices. \\ e hesitated not an instant in accepting an invitation to come aboard, and were soon renewing acquaintances with men we had not seen since tliat memorable (lav in June, 191. t, when some hundred of us were turned loose on long suft'erin<r human- ity. Xaturally there was much to be told, and llendrix, by \irtue of his being cai)tain, told his storv first. 104 ^,MSh<xr^/^Of^ If*^ He, it seemed, upon getting his sheepskin safely tuclced away, had descended uiion New York City, where, not finding sufficient outlet in the practice of medicine for his tre- mendous energy, he entered the i)olitical held, and as a result of his strenuous activities, completely extinguished the fame of certain hitherto well-known gentlemen of the genus politician. In these exploits he was ably seconded by Lewis, who also emigrated to that hysterical metropolis, and who, owing to his thorough training in party organization during his senior year at college, was admirably fitted for the job. Consequently, between them, quite a number of exciting pages were added to the lurid history of that city. Some two years previous to this narrative, he got his start for the great river tliru an injudicious mixture of chronic hepatitis and after-dinner speeches, and took his depar- ture leaving Lewis alone on the job. Reaching the ferry, he immediately began to pick Haws in its management, and by his comments mussed up the none too amiable disposi- tion of its i)roprietor very badly, the result being that he was hnally invited by that worthy gentleman to swim if the accommodations didn't suit him. To this, with his characteristic emphasis, Hendrix replied that he'd "be damned if he would," and further stated that he'd show him how to run a decent ferry. He then sent a "hellogram" to Lewis to dispatch him a good motor-boat immediately, and made himself comfortable on the bank until its arrival. In due time the boat arrived, accompanied by Linhardt and Charlie Myers, they hav- ing gracefully made their exit from the earthly stage by the joy-ride route while split- ting holes in the atmosphere with the latter's Ford, a graduation present to which he had stuck faithfully through the many vicissitudes of his career. The three of them proceeded to launch their bark, and explore the unknown waters, returning at intervals to the ferry landing where they picked up several old classmates who hap])ened to be waiting there. Thus we found they had collected cpite a merry partv, and were leading a convivial existence on the border of shadow land, and it was our good fortune to become members of this crew. At the close of Hendrix's story, I happened to mention the name of John Robinson, when in a squeaky voice, a dried-up little shade back in a corner said "present," and there he was not a bit changed since I had last seen him years ago, and still ready to discuss the respective merits of A\'illiam Jennings Bryan as opposed to the eminent Ikill Moose pro- moter. I found upon inc[uiring that soon after graduating he had inherited from his pa- ternal ancestor the political burdens of Ivanhoe, N. C, and during his stay on earth had succeeded in putting that hitherto unknown village on the map. He had finally received his conge in the shape of an attack of pneumonia while lecturing to his admiring constitu- ents on the evils of intemperance. 105 S.JJSk a. f^NOr^ ''/'V We were now ])ursuing an erratic course u]) the river, and before I had a chance to meet anv more of my shipmates, our attention was diverted by tlie ap|)earance of the an- cient ferry laboriously making its way to the other shore. As it drew near, what was our astonishment at seeing Kerkovv seated in the stern blithely digging eels with a boat-hook, those members of the finny tribe being unable to resist the glow emanating from his fiery dome of thought. We hailed him, and while our pilot playfully circled around the slow- moving craft to the evident disgust of ])()or old Charon, Roy deftly caught and clambered U|) a rope tossed him, and our ])artv received another addition. His arrival, it seemed, was due to a chronic inability to refrain from making a hit with the fair sex, displaying a fine disregard for conjugal ties, the result being a bullet through his tender heart de- s])atched by a too solicitous better half. I '.ill Jenkins told us that Snaky Jenerette, having settled in North Carolina, had won great fame by jjcrfecting a pro])hylactic vaccine against the hook-worm which practically eliminated that si)rightlv nematode from his State. He also said that Carl Sanders, during the time he could si)are from his ])ractice, was pursuing an exhaustive investigation relative to the micro-organism responsible for acute infective five-hundreditis. but so far had not succeeded in isolating it. Turning from this conversation, I met lUackmer, who still retained as a shade his gen- erous ])r()portions, and was jovial as ever. During his sojourn on earth he had accom- plished much in the field of Neurology, and had ]iassed out three years before from over- work. I now jfroceeded to inquire concerning various members of our uld class, and each member of the crew contributed some item of information. Sima, in connection with his practice, had o])ened a studio of ])hysical culture which proved so successful $.f$$ from a ])ecuniary standpoint that he eventually devoted all his time to it, and when last heard from had given up medicine altogether. Dorsey, several years after graduation, became head of an institution for the train- ing of young women as nurses, and after becoming engaged to sixteen sei)arate females at dififerent periods, was finally caught and forced b\- one of them to commit niatrimonv. lie was still on earth enjoying life at the head of a large familv. Kelly settled in Connecticut and grew famous as an obstetrician, his long suit being the ])erformance of a c;esarean section for a retained jjlacenta. Fritz attained great suc- cess in research work, gaining world-wide i)r()minence by demonstrating the elTicacv of carbon dioxide as a resuscitating agent through his extensive experiments on the feline gender. Ziegler went back to .Manchester, Aid., and b\- his logical oratorv. got himself elected to Congress, where he |)ro\e(l a valuable adjunct as the increased size of the rec- 106 a. NNQ^ 'f'H- ords of that deliberative body attested. Diener emigrated to the capital of the Ottoman Empire, where he made such a hit with the ladies that he was immediately appointed phy- sician-in-chief to the Sultan's harem. Diener's long suit was playing on public sympathy. Lowry became afliliated with Dr. Howard A. Kelly in his eternal war against vice, and when that stout foe of evil went to his ultimate reward, became his successor. Since that time he had spent his life doing missionary work among medical students. Moses, after receiving a license to hand out dojie to his fellow man, set sail for Tipperary, his birthplace, and had labored long and success full\- to ui)lift the morals of the sons of Erin, es])ecially warning them against the lure of bright lights, particularly if they ha])pened to be of a crimson hue. Pat Durkin, having much leisure during his tirst year out of college, died of oedema of the brain, while attempting to memorize the Encyclopedia Brittanica. Grossman, Studebaker and "Voung" Miller founded a medical college in the wilds of Pennsylvania, and ground out dii)lomas for several years, until finally the A. M. A. got wise, and their prosperous factory was shut down. Grossman then went out to the Mayo's clinic, where he immediately took charge, and had since been conducting it, while the other two retired to enjoy the fruits of their labors. At this point the conversation was interrupted by a scramble and a splash astern, and upon investigation it was found that poor old Moffett had fallen asleep again, and had been plunged overboard by a lurch of the boat. In the darkness he could not be located, and he is probably enjoying undisturbed repose on the river bottom, and Heaven's blessings left him alone. I now observed that we were approaching what appeared to be the opposite shore of the river of darkness, and soon a flickering light seemed to overspread the whole horizon, while the atmosphere grew sensibly warmer. We drew near, and as the boat nosed its way to the bank Charlie Myers made fast a rope, while Hendrix appeared at the cabin door carrying several cloaks of asbestos which at his discretion we donned, and followed as he led the way towards the distant glow. He was evidently quite familiar with the way, and soon brought us to a scene which beggars description. In the lurid glare which seemed to come from nowhere in particular, and which was yet everywhere, I could see numerous black shapes flitting about, while others stood or sat in groups com- fortably talking. Our conductor did not stop here, however, but led us to a large edifice apparently cut from the solid rock, from inside of which came a sound as of a large con- course of people. A\'e entered the portal, and I saw a tremendous hall well lighted by red flames which shed their dusky glare from niches in the wall. At the lower end of this room, seated on a sort of throne, was a figure in whom I had no difticulty in recognizing the ruler of the nether regions of Hell, and I must confess it was with no little misgiving that I approached nearer. He looked up as we entered, and on 107 <l.ls/NQf-^ 'f'^ seeing us greeted Hendrix heartily, seeming to be on the best of terms with him. and in the introduction and conversation which followed I speedily forgot my fears. The monarch, it seemed, had been in ill health, and learning that Buie had lately ar- rived had ordered that famous surgeon to examine and treat him. This he had done with such success that the title of surgeon-in-chief of the Infernal Kingdom, and private phy- sician to His Satanic Majesty was immediately conferred on him. All this had occurred just pre\'ious to our arrival, and we now saw that gentleman vested with his authority, and having as his assistants and health warden, Ross, Hay and 15111 Sloan, the latter had just received his appointment, and as we entered was saying "thank you, doctor," an ex- pression 1 had heard him use so frequently while at college. lUit I'uie's lUill did not stand in Hell. During a pause in the general conversation, T heard from a far corner of the room, from which since our entrance had issued a peculiar rattling sound at intervals, a voice saying in low accents "shoot the two-bits," and another replied with "come on you seven." I inquired the meaning of this cryi)tic conversation, and was told by an imj) standing near that I had overheard ])art of a demonstration in (Osteology which was constantly conducted by several eminent siiecialists in that line, lieing desirous of further enlightenment, I went over to observe closer, and was somewhat surprised to see Lackey, Goldman and I'urleson all crouched in characteristic attitude earnestlv expounding the intricacies of that absorbing subject to a select bunch of eager young devils. The clinic ceased at my a])proach, and after greeting these worthy exponents of sci- ence, I inc[uired how fate had treated them since I saw them last. Lackey, it seemed, had settled in the South, where he became a specialist in raising i)eanuts. His fondness for that humble tuber being so notorious. I was not surjirised that he should desire an unlim- ited sujjjily. Goldman had ])racticed for a few years, but later went into the undertaking- business, thinking it a shame to waste the large ([uantity of coffin nails he had accumu- lated in his career at college. lUirleson held the chair of Osteology for a number of years in a ])rominent university, until he finallv succumbed to a chronic prostatitis. I learned from these gentlemen that Krantz and Alerkel had gone over to the Father- land immediately after graduation, and rendered valiant service to the Kaiser in liis light for "Deutschland ueber alles." After the war they settled down over there, each marry- ing a fraulcin, and were still living comfortably. Thev also told me that Tonolla obtained an appointment in the University Hos])ital. but did not stay long, as he created such a flood of the succulent juice of l'ii)er lleidsick that the building was almost washed from its foundation. Leaving there, he started out for himself, and became a busv and succes-^fnl doctor, his one hobby bciirg to use u]) three pings of his favorite brand dailv. Lipnick had become an ( )steo|)ath, and wlien last heard from was stuch ing Christian Science with a 108 S.MSU NtJOry. //"/ view to taking up tliat art also, bridges, having acquired a strangle liold on the sum of luunan kncnvledge, naturally became famous, and was still busily engaged in the duties of his profession. Armstrong and Street l)ecame joint i)roprietors of a hospital for the cure of various psychic disorders, and were very successful. Their visiting staff was composed of Sharkey, Cohen and "Judge" English, the latter of whom have uj) a professorship in Grossman's medical college to fill this capacity. Having learned this much, and seeing th.at m\- informants were desirous of resuming their task, 1 now took my leave. As 1 crossed the room, a voice halted me, saying "Want to buy a stethoscope? I have one that is just what, you need," and turning, saw (iagnon still following his old habits. I shook hands with him and, after assuring him that J hardly needed anything in that line at present, f)nce more approached the group sur- r(junding His Majesty. Here I noted several old friends, and made haste to renew ac- cjuaintances with Shannon, Waft', Riordan and Patrick. Shannon, so I learned, owing to his ability to depict objects with such life-like real- ism, soon f(jund that the good honest dollars rolled in faster from that branch of science than from his previously chosen career. Conseciucntly, for twenty-rtve years he had been retained Ijy a well-known tobacco firm to scatter the likeness of the male of the genus Bos over the landscape, until comi)elled to give up his ;esthetic occupation by drowning in one of his paint buckets. Riordan became the surgeon in charge of a large amusement park \\\) North in which he was a principal stockholder. His duty was to ride around the scenic railway in a i)ri- vate car and repair all unfortunate injured while enjoying that inncnmous i)astime. .\ll went well with him until he thcnightlessly stood in the path of an approaching car, and thu- went to fulfill his destiny. Patrick became a medical missionary, and s])ent his life toiling among the savages of the dark continent until his labors were brought to an abrupt end by his playing the leading role at a cannibal bancjuet, after which those benighted gentlemen solemnly ab- jured the use of missionaries in any style as a variation of their menu. Waft" at first had little to say, and was non-committal when asked concerning his past. Howe\er, 1 finally gathered that early in his career the little blind god had successfully bom- barded his heart, but when the fragments of that organ were offered to the object of his devotions, that lady further siiattered them by announcing that she had already pieced to- gether one such wreck, and didn't feel ecjual to the job. Whereupon jioor Joe became a misogynist, and until the time of his demise some years later refused to treat the female of the species in his practice. W) such an extent did he carry this antipathy that even the sign which graced his office window read: "DISEASE OF MEN ONLY." 109 /S.Jj.Sh-^ NUar/ Iff In the conversation which ensued I learned that Shafer, Williams and Etzler each settled in his home town and became staid ])hysicians of the rural type. Naunian landed a soft berth in Springfield, Mass., by reason of his pull with lire engine authorities. Mike Egan became an opthalmologist, and made history in that line. Rice and deOue- vedo became affiliated with a large Eastern Hospital, the former being driver of the ambu- lance, while the latter was employed to look after the morals of the nurses. Scjuire Jus- tice went back to the mountains of West \'irginia, where he devoted his time to raising little sc^uires at home, and the devil in general among his neighbors. Stringer, having con- siderable influence in naval circles, became a surgeon in that branch of the service. So successful was he that at present his mail bore the imposing address, "Rear Admiral John Stringer, M. D." Woodland was drawn by some magnetic influence to Sparrows Point, Md., and established himself there. Schreiber and Rali)h Jenkins entered the Hopkins Ho.spital, where they rapidly usurped the i)laces of such men as Fiimey and Bloodgood. Lloyd Meyers added to his bankroll by writing a guidebook to the various free- lunch counters of l')altimore, with copious marginal notes and advice as to their merits by 'J'ommy Calladine. They being thoroughlv equip])ed for the task by their painstaking in- vestigation of the subject. Kerkow entered the gastro-enterological field, and established his reputation by photographing with the X-ray the peristaltic wave taking place in the stomach of the Cimex Lectularius each time that inhabitant of student boarding house satisfied his hunger. 'Phe Johnson twins settled in Philadelphia, where they practiced together, and devo- ted their s])are time to the advancement of Y. M. C. A. work. Massanet became a sculptor, at which I was not surprised, as his creative genius in that line was well known even at college. Rush settled in the country, and after several years took up agriculture as a means of sui)plying enough to keep the cook tnisv. McReynolds went back to his home in the W est, where he became famous for his regular attendance at church, and the varie- gated cuss-words w^ith which he enlivened his conversation. At this ])()int Hendrix requested permission from His Majesty to retire, which being granted, our ])arty withdrew, and quickl\- ])assing through the scenes described above, made our way to the boat. Here we were accosted by a long-legged shade who, on closer inspection, iiroved to be Prickett. He told us he had been s])ecialist in dietetics until fate, in the shai)e of chronic indigestion ac(|uirc(l \>\ a strict adherence to his own rules of diet, removed him. We now re-embarked, taking I'rickell along, and as we swung out into the ri\er and settled down comfortably, he told us of se\eral his departure. fi'iends he had seen just i)re\ious to 110 •a^NNO^y fft^ Shipley married the lady of his choice immediately after graduation, and settled in the jvingles of Anne Arundel Count}-. Here he led a jirecarious existence owing to his ina- bility to collect from ])atients as the undertaker always heat him to it. Lane went over to London, and gave his famous uncle some valuable jiointers in surgery. .\L W. Myers, the i)hilosopher, settled down comfortably in Western Maryland, where he grew fat and wealthy owing to his skill as a diagnostician. Itennett occui)ied a large slice of the lime- light through his ability in the gentle art of pugilism. Lob Hill married an heiress and was kept so busy spending the income thus ac(|uired that he had no time left for the medi- cal world. Lanich went to Pittsburgh, and joined the Salvation .-\rm\-, while 1 lundley stayed in Baltimore and became superintendent of the University Hosjjital. (ones went back to Snowhill, Aid., and entered heartily into the fight to exclude John liarleycorn from that dis- trict, and at present was still a firm antagonist of the "Demon Rum."' (ireenberg, by means of a specially [latented stationarv thermometer, c(jnclusively demonstrated the fal- lacy of i)ureperal sepsis. Wilson and Ray ojjcned uj) a sanatorium, where they cured every known disease by means of hydrotherapy and suggestion. ( )ur attention was now attracted bv the increased sjieed of the craft, fctr which there seemed to be no explanation. Faster, and still faster, it sped heedless of helm or engine, and suddenly rounding a bend in the river we saw ahead a mighty preci])ice, while a thun- derous roar filled the air. On we rushed, now almost on the brink of the fearful cataract, now poised at its edge, and the next instant a sickening ])lunge, a crash, and amid the general confusion which followed my falling off a bench in the am])hitheatrc, I heard Professor Winslow calling the roll.

Everywhere, one will come in contact with both kinds. Not only in college life will we get a little of each, but no matter what business you undertake, you are going to find the happy-go-lucky fellow and the personage who struggles every mo- ment, and dwarfs his vision by following but one idea and failing to reason out why such things should come to pass. This is a mighty fine world to live in — we realize all the more as each day we see the sun shine — something altogether dififerent from what they have in other countries, liut the pessimist can even find fault with the sun — he abhors it for it oftimes melts his collar and causes waste of energy in putting a new one on. Both the pessimists and the optimists up to this year have had a great deal of friends in the present Junior Class. However, a change has been wrought, for the gathering now holding down the list are the finest set of live- wire optimists one could wish to see. I'.ut 'twas not always thus. The preceding year when the present batch were Sophs, how they did pour out efi:'usions of ]iessimistic calibre all during the year. However, there were some who found some little rays of optimism floating round and they eagerly grasped them, evidently taking into consideration the fact that they could be gathered in for nothing and, there was a plentiful supply for all concerned. A large number of the present class, styling themselves as Juniors, have put in three years with their books at the University, while others have found their way fmm various other institutes of learning. And the conglomeration has had the tendency to work wonders, for more co-operation has been noted during the present session than the other two. In writing a class history many are i)rone to follow the same trend as the pre- vious wielder of the pen. It is apparent to me that one. if they would jiroduce the best expressions must perforce do so with a mind devoid of the stereotyped utter- ances made in the past. The present Junior Class has seemingly started on the way to make good. From mere boys they have started to act the part of grown-up men. And their departure from habits of previous years is taken as a good sign. Before closing I must extend my congratulations to the officers who took care of the welfare of the third-year students during the year : President, Bernard J. Ferry ; Vice-President, Samuel O. Pruitt : Secretary, E. P. Thomas: Treasurer, N. \\'. A'oss; Sergeant-at-Arms, Frank E. Mason; Class Historian, Henry L. Bolen ; Artist, J!. ^V. Grout : Honor Committee, Chairman, Cecil Rigby, George Bowden, J. E. Cudd, John Evans and Harrison W'ellman. And now fellow students in wishing y(TU good luck in the future let me cjuote you the lines of Scott : "And better had they ne'er been born. Who read to doul)t, or read to scorn." H. L.

While 1 highly appreciate the honor bestowed upon me, yet 1 could wish that they had made more history l)y some method, even though it had taken the form of hazing the Freshman, and by this 1 do not mean that 1 am in favor of hazing: far be it, when I am called upon to write this historx- anything would seem l)crmissible if it only furnished matei ial. We arrived in llaltimore about the fir.^t of ( )ctobcr. Some came earlier and some later, b'veryone looked as though he had been much benefited by the summer vacation and had been completely restored from the state in which he had been placed by the \'ery "strenuous" work of the Freshman year. ( )nr first interest was to find out who had returned and who had "fallen by the wayside" in the interval between the first and second laj) in the race for the title of .M. D. Our curiosity in this directitm was not al- layed for several days, owing to the fact that it took many of our i)romising medicos to be, the greater part of a week to tear theiuselves away from the girl at home. Finally thev drifted in, and on tallying u]) we found that \ery few of our hist year bunch had failed to return or luake the v^oph. Class, and that the diminution in the size of the class occasioned by tlicir absence was more than offset by the number of new men that came to us from other schools. We had resolved during our first year that we would abstain from hazing the l^'resh- men, for the reason that the jjrevious Soph. Class had not molested us when we entered. And let me add that this resoKe was strictly adhered to. Had we not i)reviously re- solved to let the Freshies alone, we could have done nothing else but let them go for an- other reason, for when we came to look for the Freshmen to see how the class "sized up," we had difficulty in fmding them at all due to their scarcity, which was due to the raised reciuirements. Certainly, as Dr. llolland remarked, we could not liave jumi)ed on a class less than one-third our size. We soon settled down to work and things were running smoothlv in a very short time. After the laj)se of a few weeks we decided to elect officers for the year. There was quite a lively election, and the following oflicers were elected: President, Robert S. C,. Welch; A'ice-President, F. H. Merrick; Secretary, J. j. Gilsen ; Treasurer, j. G. Skilling; Sergeant-at-Arms, L Sorin. The Honor Committee — Chairman, J. Holmes, A. Mulcahey, F. E. Yost, E. D. Fay, O. ?,. r.onner. Every one of the officers elected are royal good fellows who have loyally attended to their duties and we were lucky to have made such a good selection f)f officers. After things started running smoothly the order of the day has been lots of work, and of course some fun occasionally, for you know that "all work and no i)lav will make Jack a dull boy." Although our class has shown that it is com])osed of live ones and for this reason may not be the i)et of all the Prof's., yet take this tij): vou can just bet your last dol- lar that the Class of '17 will be right there when the roll is called for promotion into the junior Class. 123 d NNOr^ '/'V ®n iEart^a duarbtait Angrls — 31]?

You ask me what, and I answer every woman. Here's to e\ery woman. She is beautiful to some one. Every woman has a mission of good. E\'ery woman fulfills that mission, however meagre it may seem. Every woman is the greatest of all creations. Every woman is the most perfect thing which e.xists. Everv woman is what makes life worth while. Every woman is that which elevates the human race above the rest of creation. Every woman gives the desire for truth to all. Here's to every woman, the good, the beautiful, and the sublime to everv man. There is born in every indi\idual an innate desire for truth and he follows this desire just so long as it leads along the line of least resistance. But when the ])athway becomes difficult and the way of life hard, he begins to deviate. The e.xi)ression, "AH men are born liars" is incorrect but that all become liars is 125 S.MSk, (VA/*^ /t'¥ sad reality. It makes no difference what vocation you may follow, the time will come when you will let what you call circumstances override your better self and you, for fear of consequences, fail to do that which you know to be right. To be a liar a man does not necessarily tell a lie. To conceal a truth which he knows should be made known, to fail to denounce a wrong which he knows to exist, and which, in his heart he knows he should denounce, is more of a lie than the actual telling of one. In telling a lie an individual harms only himself. In concealing a truth or failure to denounce a wrong, when in a position to do so, one harms society. He adds one more cog in the wheels of ignorance and wrong which civilization must overcome. Insignificant in itself, perhaps, yet added to all the others, it keei)s back the dawn of enlightenment for countless ages. This excuses no man, nor was it written with that intention, it makes no apology for any one. But hopes to show you that things are not what they seem. Many pages of this book would be as radically changed as Poe changed his immortal " Hells'" or O'Hara mended his famous mortal elegy. The "Bivouac of the Dead," were it not so. The truth will out, give it time. It was not to be in our time and in this connection. We can only hope. \\ hat a word is hope. Take every attribute from man and leave him hope and yet he may become a factor in the world's progress. Give him everything else and he will be nothing without ho])e. It is the one word that defines itself. So we leave you with the hope that in the future the writers for the L'ni\ersity of Maryland Year ISook will "be sure they are right and then go ahead.'"

Ladies and gentlemen, he is by far the most adroit and .skilful opera- tor that we have in our whole school.

He is the man who keeps the wdiole show on financial as well as moral footing. ( )ur beloved fVofessor, Randolph W'inslow, is the most pious one among the whole bunch, and one of the most h(jnorable men we have ever known. His personality is ])erfect. His manner in presenting his work is grand, and, last but not least, to know him is nothing less than to love him. And, by the way, Charlie Mayo will tell you todav that he, Prof. W'inslow, is a .skilful operator in his own class. The student's friend is he. Undauntedly, we come to the Magician — "Peggy" has always been a star in his own class, but one thing we shall always have to thank him for, is the fact that he did not play favorite among men under him. Though the heavens fall, he is capable of ])roving to you that a left accipito posterior position is easily converted into a right occepito anterior position, whereby the child's life is conserved, and the mother's condition bettered. He does not need two blades of the forceps, even though the head be floating. One blade, whichever side it be, is sufficient to carry him through while he waves his magic wand. r>ut there is one David Street, about whom we shall have to say something. IJeing a human graphophone, he is naturally a fast talker and can cover more ground in one minute while lecturing than ten thousand a\erage men of medicine can cover in seventeen months. He is learned in medicine, caj)able in si)eech, and affable in manner — a friend to students without a peer. A man whose heart and soul have no peer. Finally, we produce to you the tight-rope trio, among whom arc re])resented Law, Dentistry and Pharmacy. Surely this combination shall be of sutiicienl strength to amuse you, whether you be at the bar ])leading for justice, or at the dentists' chair crying for help, or at the ai)othecary"s place lamenting for jwison that you may commit suicide. .\sks Dr. Hynson.

B.iJ ( )N of John R. and Emma A\'agncr Criizcn, was horn in Cuniljcr- land, Aid., May 22, 1861. His literary education was acquired in the Allej^liany County Academy. He engaged in mercantile bu.sine.ss with an uncle for some years — giving this up to matriculate with the 15. C. D. S., from wliich he was graduated in the si)ring of 1887. He then be- gan the practise of Dentistry in Germantown. ( )hio, where he re- mained some 18 months, when he removed to Cumberland and practised for nearly nine years, when he removed to Baltimore in 1897 and since that date Dr. Cruzen has made many acquaintances. By his brethren of the Dental Faculties he is very highly esteemed and frecjuently ccjnsulted in tlie most difHcult cases — relying upon his good judgment as well as his professional knowledge. Thoroughly conversant with the details of his i)r()fession, energetic in all his transactions, as well as honorable and high-minded in phases of his life, Dr. Cru/.en occui)ies an en\iable ])()sition among his fellow citizens, who willingly accord to him a place in the first ranks, not alone for his many professional quali- ties, but for every trait that marks the true Christian gentleman and man of honor. In addition to his priyate ]>ractise in the autumn of 1897 he was Crown and liridge Demonstrator at B. M. C, after which he became Professor of Materia Medica and later Professor of Operative Dentistry, which he taught until the Fall of 1914, when the B. Al. C. and U. of AI. merged, and he assumed the chair of Crown and Bridge Work. He holds membership in the National Dental Association and x\ssociation of Dental Surgeons of Baltimore and Mary- land State Dental Association. He is quick in his judgment of men and unusually accurate in his convic- tions and his character is a happy combination of strength and gentleness. These characteristics, together with his jjersonality, of itself an interesting study, make many good friends. Dr. Cruzen has been with us for two years and has made good. His lectures have been interesting and his clinics insui)erable. We love and cherish him. 131 FACULTY OF DENTAL DEPARTMENT iFantltij nf S^utal Sr^arlntput •){? T. (). Hi:atvv()i.i:. Di;an. R.

In the fall of 1912 forty-five young men and two young ( ?) girls en- tered this school. Some were recently from plumbing establishments, others from great Southern cotton factories, others from the coal fields in the West and "Rube" Castevens and "Sidna" Allen from Yadkinville, N. C. Taking it all arcjund, 1 think we were a very creditable looking bunch with just a little ])unch in us, something different from the average run of students. Hut the worst is yet to come, oh! oh! the wav those Juniors made things pleasant for us was a shame. They sold us rules — 50c., they sold us green buttons — 25c., they made us wear standing collars, blue caps, with the green button they had just bought sticking right up in the middle. Uut even with all this regalia on I believe that it improved our looks. It at least put us in the same class with the Highlandtown sports. I forgot, that's only half of what those rash juniors did. Not satisfied witli dressing us u]) like jack- asses they succeeded in rounding us all up one morning and taking us out to Irvington to show those Rip \'an Winklers what the University of ^laryland really was. Believe me, we certainly showed off for these peaceful inhabitants, too. Epting and Secrest showed them a few new steps in the Terpsichorean art, and IJenny Webster sang as he never did in the Madison choir. And right here I want to say that we were so horrified at these feats of the Ufiper classmen that we then and there abolished hazing for good and all. I might also add that Dean 1 leatwole was a material factor in this emancipation of the Freshmen. I also want to thank the Class of l')14, for by their actions we |)r()fited. We didn't have much electioneering for class officers and succeeding in electing Mitchell as President. Dean Hcatwole made us feel at home and we settled down to work, the consetjuenccs of which made nearly all come back with a clear ticket. The juniors oi)encd with the loss of .Allen, Hughes and several other good men, while to replace this vacancy came the class from lialtimore Medical College, and the\- all [)roved to be good fellows as well as good students. We soon formed a happy union with everything running smooth until Men Webster and Waterman got to electioneering for I'urcell while Epting ])resented Richards for the Presidency. About a week of this and I'urcell was elected President to lead us through the ])allis of onr junior year. 162 S.MSk a. NNO^ ff'¥- In the infirmary we encountered one obstacle in the form of Dr. Rea. We wanted to rush through and show what we could do, but Dr. Rea insisted that we take things calmly and do everything well. He pointed out the fact that we had a whole year before us, and that although we might rush we could not put in a bum tilling and get away with it. The other work was a cinch — except physiology and Lizzie Conser — "she"" persisted in flunking a few of us, but we came back in the fall and showetl her what we really could do when it meant graduation to us. In the Fall of 1914 we all came back with no loss on the roll books. That in itself speaks for the spirit of the class, did any other class ever show such spirit? But here politics again enters the ()eaceful domain of our old University, and this time Purcell, with the able assistance of Waterman, succeeded in electing Kendall to the coveted position of President. And this time the race was exciting. For the two best men in the class were running. After this we were introduced to Dr. liaskin. who proceeded to elucidate on the art of straightening "tufts." After one demonstration all the members of the class came to the conclusion that their "tufts"" were perfect in every detail. Ben W'ebstei was over- heard to remark that his Tennessee Flower would have to accept him just as he was. This time we proved to Dr. Rea that we were real dentists and for "patients"' could not be beat. Dr. Rea even went so far as to smile and say that we were a i)romising set of young dentists and with the proper care should develop. I sincerely trust that he has succeeded in the developing process. Dr. Mitchell showed us that Bacteriology was no cinch by flunking about ten. We hope, however, to make it up this spring along with Pathology. There was only one draw- back or hindrance to mar the progress of our class this year, and that was the marriage of Miss Roof. We were all in love with her, in fact all expected to help along with her practice that she must secure when she graduates ; when lo, and behold she "flew the coop"' without so nuich as a "good-bye boys." We've become accustomed to it now, and besides the wan and sorrowful look on Walker"s face we are all O. K., and expect to make this "good old school" proud of each and every one of us as an alumni in the days to come. James Thompson, Historian. 163 ^.MSh-^ NMoi^ If'H g>rutor JPrnpl]prii S 1 gaze on the picture of the Class of "13 ami compare the faces and char- acters of those boys with those of the men I met at the reunion I see how much you really missed Vou should have gone with me. Why! you missed what would have been one of the greatest pleasures of your life. There's nothing like these reunions. You should have seen the old boys rolling in. They came from all over the States and from other ])arts of the world also. It made me feel young again to be there and able to clasp hands and greet our old classmates. The hands I s'hook often belonged to a different man than the one who possessed it in the old schcjoldays, for time had wrought changes. There were changes there! New character! Intellect, integrity, character, all on a changed plane. Many a fellow had had his ego of youth and the many other school-boy failings removed liy Father Time and yet survived — a credit to the Alma Mater. As I told you before, you certainly let a grand (jpportunity for an enjoyable time sli]) b\- you; but since you have been so foolish I will try and tell you what the boys have t(jld me of their work and success. Kendall, vou rememfjer him, our lanky class i)resi(lcnt. He ])ractiscd dentistrv in (ieor- gia for li\c \'ears. Then the old roxing and bushwhacking s])irit took hold of him. but now he has settled down to hard work in lUienos Ayres, South America. He tells nie there is nothing like the Scnith American field for the dentist. Waterman for the i)ast few years has retired from active practise, and has been elected to the chair of Pharmaceutical Dentistry in the Universitv of Te.\a.>. .Vnother one of our boys doing good work in Te.xas is Davila, but he tells me he is soon to retire in order to devote his time to the furthering of the work of the Spanish School of Dental Lit- erature. In the Lone Star State "Dandy Dave" Danforth is reaping the shea\es of suc- cess. After a number of years of good ball playing in the majors, his arm ga\e out, but thrifty Dave had a ])rofession and a fat bank roll to fall back on. l)a\e is one of the boys little changed by time, the same (|uiet, likeable chap. Kpting, shortly after graduation, came to the conclusion that dentist r\- was not his call- ing, and gave up all attemi)ts at inflicting himself on the suffering iniblic. Instead he opened u]) a dental depot in Charleston, S. C, and now who has not heard of the great I'.pling Southern I )ental Sujjjily Co? I"",])ting seems to have modelled his business career after his great namesake, lipstein. ( )f late years he has taken in jollv Johnnie Secrest as junior ])artner. John surprised us by pushing forward into the lime light bv his recent uprooting 164 ,S.JI'Shi.f^/^o^ 'f'*7 of all past theories on the disease of pyorrhoea alveolaris. This partnership shows yet fur- ther the keen business foresight of Epting. As a demonstrator of equipment designed for lady dentists, they have engaged Dr. McKeown. Dr. AIcKeown has been recognized for some time as a very competent child's dentist. Through her work with Elating and Secrest she should be a big factor in pointing out to women a broader held for their activities. Though she handles dental supplies, she should be just as competent with surgical instruments; for she is no longer known as Miss Dr. but is the happy wife of a [)rominent Southern surgeon. While speaking of the ladies, I do not wish to forget Dr. Scimeca, nee Miss Roof. Just think of it. She came all the way from Germany to be with us. She tells us it is her first long vacation in five years. Her practise in Hamburg among the American colony keeps her quite busy. Occasionally she and her husband find time to visit me in \ ienna and re- turn bv wav of Palermo, Italy, in order to visit the former home of her husband. Up in New York City Sobell and \'olk have an office together, and have amassed a lit- tle fortune by wav of their jtractise among the "Chosen People." Down in the Carolinas McLean, Castevens and Thompson have stuck to the native heath. Thom])son has a fine ethical practise and only last year was elected Secretary of the Ca'rolina Dental Association. Get-Rich-Quick Castevens started out in life as the proprietor of an advertising shop. This enterprise shortly failed. Steve then affiliated himself with the Carolina Turf Association and Poker Club. In this, his new-old profes- sion, he is very successful. Do you remember Webster? The little fellow with the good line — ? He has tried his luck in the West and by abandoning the wild oat field and a])plying himself he has learned some dentistry and has become an efiicient practitioner in Seattle. His old pal, McLean, has given up his jiractise for the more lucrative calling of a Car- olina hotel proprietor. He is a good host for the Alumnae boys, and he has accjuired the knack of pulling stoppers instead of teeth. . As a whole the Carolina boys have made a good showing. There is Scruggs. All his work is with the elite who visit the Southern beaches, and his time is much in demand. Lest I forget to tell you, Scruggs is champion married man of the old class. He is the proud father of eight children and the same Scruggs with it all. Old but ambitious Simons has succeeded, after climbing a rocky path, in becoming the foremost tooth dentist of StatesviUe. No change ! Same happy-go-lucky Lock with the same Southern chivalry. Those three Yankee boys of Connecticut are all doing fine. A\'alberg, located in the cool State of Maine, but the female population not being large, he decided to move to a warmer- climate. He is now in the Panama Zone. Stronger fortifications will certainly have to be built now that "Mutt" is in Panama. 165 a. NNOf^ //'V Richards is now chief demonstrator in the Forsyth Children's CHnic in Boston. He always had the knack of taking it from the mouths of babes. He tells me McFarr has spe- cialized in Pathologic Dentistry and is one of the bright lights that glares down on medio- cricy. Jimmy is the same friendly boy. Close but never Far(r). ( )ld Ij. I)., you remember him! The old grandpa with the hel])ing hand. He was one of the first to greet me. Always there. The "Old Ganef" is yet king of the extractors, and during the i)ast year has jilaced on the dental curriculum the new Jewrishprudence (Ju- risprudence). As yet that same happy old Smith. Smith t<jld me Feint is in a sanatorium in New Jersey suffering from nervous break- down and locomotor ataxia, brought on by excessive work. Honick is one of the few that stuck to Baltimore and extraction. Old Hen is there yet with extraction, and being one of the Faculty of the U. of M., gave us a beautiful demon- stration of the administration of N.,0 by his own latest method. While in Baltimore, Lewis took me around to look over his office in the Professional Building. He now occupies the old quarters of Dr. Cruzer, and is a fair example of the new replacing the old even in Crown and Bridge Work. Jack is the same good fellow and certainly was a prince of entertainers in introducing us once more to the old town of Bal- timore. Ouintero-Portifolio Ouint. You should have seen the crop of whiskers Alurphy grew during the year he was in Mexico. PouGomez is connected with the Health Department of Cuba and is a mcxst brilliant and scholarly lecturer on the crusade in favor of Oral Hygiene. We are proud of his work. Morales, directly after his graduation, began his practise in Salt Lake City. Utah. He was too bu.sy with his many pressing duties to attend the reunion, but one of the boys claims it is only an excuse and all that keei)s him away is the failure to get a s])ecial train for his harem. Paul came from far away Australia to be with us. lie did not balk at the long trio, if once more he could meet his old classmates and gaze at the i)hysiognomy of the Count. He is one of the most i)rogressive of the Australian Army Dental Corps and has kejit wy the high standard of work begun at the U. of ]\L iluist, the Count, has given uji his i)ractise of dentistry as a profession and now is a plantation owner in the South, lie now has the opportunity of dealing with refractory negroes instead of molars. ( )ld lUiist ! Dust thon art to soil returnest. \\ alker. one of our Deans, \et has that ha|>i)y trademark smile though it is somewhat hidden bv a much thicker sou]) strainer than the one which adorned his upper lip in the 166 S.MSk a. VA/d/v/ //'V old days. They say that the Dean's smile, notwithstanding the ego connected therewith, niore than any one thing has hel])ed bring hnn success. There has been a recent i^atenl by him of which you have probably heard — a device for the extraction of teeth without instruments. Mclntyre, the Canadian, has been showing his countrymen what a real success is. By special request he has been ])laced at the head of the staff of the Roval Colonial Head- cjuarters but will soon retire in order to take u|) the ojien life. Mitchell had no great distance to come in order to attend the reunion. Me is a ])rac- titioner in Richmond, \ a., and is now President of the Richmond Hall Club, on whose team he was a member a few years after graduation. "Mitch" is also Ca])tain and Reserve Dental Surgeon in the \J. S. Army, and we beliexe will soon be ap])ointed to the new post of Surgeon General of the Dental Cor[)s. Our Bird is some "bird" now. He has not been early enough to catch the worm of opportunity, but nevertheless is well satisfied and is making a good living. His only re- gret is that he failed to join the aviation corps instead of wielding the forceps. During the reunion a table was unveiled in the new administration building to the memory of Irish Magee, the young babv elephant, who died in New York City on the first day of July, nineteen hundred and fifteen, on which day the Board of Dental Ex- aminers of New \'ork State put forth that fatal c[uestion, "Describe the Circle of Willis." (J'Connel was there from Massachusetts. He brought with him a whole army of young Irishmen. He received the due congratulations of the boys on such i)atriotism to his coun- try. Christy has had a fine success and the "Chauncy ( )lc(jtt" voice has helped pave the way. We had a box party at the Gayety in order to see our old classmates Purcell and New- ton, billed as Purcell, the Yiddish Comedian, and Newton, the Wizard of the African Harp. We were not disai)pointed, the boys have not made a mistake in giving u]^ the profession. Loomis came back to Baltimore shortly after graduation to take up his duties as a clothing model for the Leader. It's alright. Fine feathers make fine birds. F. H. Smith is an M. D., having taken up the study of medicine with the object in view of better understanding the workings of a heart. Cynic ! the old boy realizes it is an ideal that calls forth the efforts, which make a man. Who doesn't know what Lynaugh's doing, who hasn't heard of Lynaugh, the great Movie Comedian and Pantomime Artist, a second Charlie Cha])lin. His early training on infirmary diplomacy has stood him in good stead. Johnson is now the jolly ])roi)rietor of a jitney bus and is entertaining the boys by placing his cars at their service while in the city. 167 d. NNOf^ If'*/- Dr. Hebert was unable to be present the first clay. He was unable to ride the water wagon, so the Northwestern Patrol was again substituted. Hebert was let down eas\ because the fellow was taken before Fitzgerald, who now presides over the Northwestern. Brumberger is a laboratory man for the New York Painful Dental Parlor. Malone is a i)rime extractor the boys say but in every instance where the patient is in need of a stimulant, Malone administered one gill of Spiritus Frumenti internally into him- self. Just the same absent-mindness of old. An unavoidable mistake. As I have told you I have a very fine practice in \'ienna, and as you know the rest of my career, and as I have told you briefly all I know of the old classmates and their work, this will have to suffice; but boys do not miss the next reunion. 16X ov Qsv ■' 5>. 3> a* a' 0^-^ cs-- 0-' ^ I,/ ^.Jl.^l-\a.NNoi^ Ifi^ (SuBtomB nf MtBr iMrn Dr. HkatvvolK — Treats Freslimeii and juniors like oentlenien and Seniors like convicts.

We were no longer Freshies, and we conducted our- selves in a manner wholly becoming to our im|)ortance. vSome of the more ambitious fellows came back before school opened, but most of us got back around the 1st. lUmdy tried to create a sensa- tion bv dropijing in two weeks behind time, and darean, h^ranklin, Con- nelly and Parks did not re:urn. The iirst imi)ortant event claiming our attention was the election of Class (JIficers. After a lot of squabbling and some rough-house, the following were elected: Albert, the West \'irginia coal miner, was chosen as high nuick-a-muck, and Darwin, from South Car- olina, was selected as his understudy. Wee Jiean, who hails from the Emjjire State, was the choice for secretary, while llurns, of \'ermont, was given the honest man's job. The artistic work of the class was left in the hands of Brandon, the magician from Jamaica. Harper, of South Carolina, was chcjsen official bouncer, and I'.rown, of New Jersey, was elected historian. The excitement of this election seemed to satisfy everybody for a while, and things ran along very smoothly until the Thanksgiving holidays. Dr. Ilemmeter held a rare treat in store for us on our return from this vacation. It seemed that with all his silver drinking cups, dinky caps, and what-nots, he was not sat- isfied, and lo and behold! he blowed himself to a new suit. Nuf sed ! That suit was some noise, and Til bet a nice big red apple that he'll never wear it to school again. by this time most of us had started in the inlirmary, and Messrs. Sowers and I'ennett could generally be found on the steps, sporting their new white coats and sizing uj) the cliickens. Sowers is some poultry fancier, anyhow, but does not specialize on any one breed. ■ As usual, there were some bad mistakes made in the inhrmaiy. Welch didn't start work- ing till late, and it was only natural that some of the other students should render him assist- ance. Welch didn't know exactly how to handle his first case, a pulj) exposure in a six- year molar, so he asked his more experienced classmate, Fr. Cannon, what he should do in such a case. Cannon examined the tooth, thought decjily for a few luoments (oh, yes, it's possible) and rejilied that he would take the nerve out and kill it. We have no doubt that if the patient understood more r.bout dentistry, Cannc^i would have received the same treatment that he prescribed for the tooth. Of course Nathanson wasn't holding himself in the background at all, his nature wouldn't allow it. The Duke is naturally a bright chap. He is a barber, as well as a den- tist, and also speaks several languages fluently. Of course he doesn't have much chance 181 S.MSk a. NfJer^ If'^ to use his lingual knowledge in the infirmary, but one afternoon he was assigned a pa- tient who bore the earmarks of a foreigner, and Nathanson thought he saw his chance. He asked the patient in seven distinct languages what his trouble was, but the fellow evidently did not understand him. Nathanson then asked the same question in Hog Latin, and receiving no reply became desperate and asked very loudl}- in English, "What lan- guage do you si)eak?'" The patient calmly rejilied, "(Jh, I speak English." This completelv unnerved the Duke and he forgot to tighten the nerve bristle in its handle. So when he inserted the broach into a root canal to remove a putrescent pulp, the bristle dropped into the handle. Nathanson's face turned all the colors of the rain- bow, his hands trembled and, for once in his life, he lost control of his tongue. He ran the whole length of the inrtrmary in less time than it takes to tell it, grabbed Dr. Rae by the arm and literally dragged him to the scene of the disaster. By this time Nathanson had regained control of his voice, and he exclaimed in a hoarse whisper, "Dr. Rae, I have forced a nerve broach into the antrum." Dr. Rae looked at the tooth, then at Nathan- son, and finally picked up the handle and removed the bristle from it. Then after he had st()])])ed laughing, he had a long talk with the Duke, the whole substance of which amount- ed to just this — that a Dental School is not a home for incurables, and that certain insti- tutions make it their ])rivate business to care for such subjects. The three weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas passed very cmickly, but at that we all welcomed another vacation and left for home with a determination to have a good time. Darwin got stuck in a South Carolina mud-hole and arrived at school a week behind schedule. However, it didn't worry him any, he said they couldn't do any real work here without him. ' Two weeks of loafing was evidently not enough for T. T. Smith and he failed to show up after the vacation. When we got back everybody seemed to take a renewed interest in life and the whole class became very industrious. Even Mike Moran and Joe Welch came around to school occasionally. Personally I saw Moran in the laboratory twice, but it is rumored that he was there another time. Hut taking matters seriously, we are the most industrious class in school. Dr. Robin- son says we have done more work already than any other class has done in a whole .session, and Dr. iieatwole says he has great ho])es of this class; but, just between xou and me, if you want to get a real line on us, ask Dr Patterson about us. He savs — but I guess what Dr. Patterson says about us had better be left out. This book wouldn't hold ail he savs concerning his favorite class, and a partial ([notation might be misleading. Of course we know we're not the best class that c\er came to the University of Maryland, but we have a fairly good oi)inion of ourselves, and next year — Well, we'll be v^cniors next vear, and vou'll hear from us again. 182 ^lllllilimi'millllllMlllllllllllllllllxtllllll'llllliriJ(illiiltl;'i|iii|ii:it||||i;i|ii|i||„ iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiihiiiiiim llHtlllHinilltHllllt|||f||f||||||||||||||[l|||[|||| ^ "I"" "iii'"iiiiiiNllililliilMiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiMiiiiiiriiiiimiiii;iiii;ii, "'"'I '':iilllllllllllllll II llllliMi;:iii:)i'iiiir iiim iiiiiiiiiiilluiiir^ in m < _i 0 -I < H Z LJ Q Z < 2 I <n ill b. s.ji.sUr.^^ «$?

Were dissecting and grinding in the night. HE l'il7 Freshman Class of the Dental Department of the University of Maryland began their career with auspicius promise. We faced the dawn of a raised curriculum as the smallest Freshman Class ever known on the enrollment book, but we did not really, deep down in cnir hearts, object to what seemed more concentrated instruction. To raise the old cry, the war may have kept some greater geniuses away, but we ourselves should worry, pro- vided we do not yet have to join the navy. Suffice it to say that we have survived thus far without being kicked out, arrested as flirts, or having to return to the plow handles. ( )ur class at first consisted of twenty-five members, and we have at present only two less than that number. We regret very nnich that Schmidt was compelled to leave on account of ill health. We were also sorry to lose Calvi and Martinez, and we greeted Mauley with a hearty New Year welcome. History records this class as having formed its organization on Saturday, October 10, 1''14. ( )ur (jfiicers were chosen as follows: Miller, president ; Clarke, vice-president ; Lancaster, secretary and treasurer. The president appointed an executive committee as follows: Cramer, chairman; Huckens, Corrigan, Waynick and Lirown. To glance at our class, I am afraid that the onlooking world would fail to see the fine pcjints of our character delineations. I said we were geniuses, and I could not resist men- tioning that fact, for our training in dodging modelling-composition, ])laster chunks, ban- ana skins, decayed teeth, rag balls, and sledge hammers, etc., has been too ])ainfully ac- cjuired. I have no adequate data upon the subject, but if the Kaiser has not equipped his army with such ferocious Trojans he has overlooked a big bet. Possibly 1 have aroused your curiosity as to the kind of fellows that make up this most extraordinary class, but if you will just dro]i around some day I shall be glad to show you the smiling faces of Ed- wards, Wray, Corrigan and Miller, anxiously ])ee])ing around posts and corners await- ing an opportunity for something to turn u]). 1 should also be glad to introduce you to one whose imitative ability has ac(|uired for him the name of "Shakespeare." 1 have also been able to see in this bunch of highly dignified men another set of geniuses, the "ladies" men." One may hear the familiar sound mingled with the din of liles and hammer, "( )h mother! the doctor is here!" and presentlv wc are aware of the jjresence of Dr. Clarke. r.tU the climax of all of our e\ents was the fame gained In- Clarke, C.odson and Cor- rigan in the new method of setting uj) teeth, ui)side down. If one hatl-i ears to hear, let him hear, ov eyes to see, let him see. ( )r if anvone who has read this and doesn't feel convinced tliat we are a li\'el\' lunich will just drop the sec- retary a card or pay us a \isit we shall gladly try to ex|)lain more con\incingl\ . And "\\\' thank von one and all for \<)ur kind attention." 186 j\:w SMSha^^o^- /f/V ^ r V S^^t) 'A " ^) -T fJ^ A 7?" r-J^^V j^jr p >- h- _1 D o < ll. < J S'JlSh'^r/Msry Ifi^ ^Faculty of ICam ^ Hon.

Adam broke tiiat law, then followed his i)unishmcnt an.d to i)unish Adam divers laws were conceived. The laws regulating his and h.is ])rogeny"s future life, e.\ile or incarceration, as you will, were |)r<j- poundcd after he had violated the first. The law therefore did not anticii)ate Adam's down- fall, hut followed: T(j lay the most severely criticised ]»rofession is the law, today bitter anathenni is Hung at the law's delay, judges of highly resi)ected courts deem it necessary to comment un- favorably on the system they administer. The law's delay is the target of low comedians and ])unsters, (jf charlatan critics, of unsuccessful lawyers, socialists, anarchists and nioli- ists. The critics of the \\ anamaker type, who apparently see no farther than the case be- fore them, or who see through other than legal eyes, fail to note the fact that the law must follow. It is a conservative force, following and providing for the handling of cir- cumstances as thev occur. To legislate on purely speculative or contingent conditions would leave commerce and individual liberty in such a state of uncertaintv that no man could prepare for future things. Initiative would be a quality no man need possess. The monot- ony of such a course would automatical] v cause its death. We hnd the mob following the tpiack wlien all is well, cursing the lawyer as it does the doctor and dentist, and in fact everv other ])rofessional man ; but. when the bowels of the earth are moved by the unseed hand of God and the art and accoirplishments of civili- zation are in a moment resolved again into the incongruous mass from which they were con- ceived : W hen great minds lose control of their desire to resjiect the rights of others and revert by the i)rcsent pres:dng nee 1 to the i)rimati\e law of self-preservation; When weaker minds bereft of the sujports of disci|)line and order give way to the unleashed impulses of beasts; When murder, rai)ine and i)illage spring up in a second and cry down in mockery the civilization of ages; When men and women terror stricken Ijv the devastation surrounding them forget the invocation of God's mercy (jr remembering God at all, curse his wrath ; When some gigantic enterprise is disorg-^nized and the all of widov.s and or|)hans are by a single act ])laced at the mercy of the unscru])uIous ; When on uncharted seas the ship of state sets out to sail with her cargo of a nation's welfare and honor; The lazvyer is sought and the /otc is sought to bring order out of chaos, to stop the up- raised hand of the evildoer and to stay the rapacity of the extortionist.

'J'hc uns])eakable misery, slaughter and brutality which surrounded me ! Suddenly, there was a blinding flash, followed by a tremendous, ear-splitting explo- sion. A burning pain shot through my side. Hideous and grotesque forms danced about me. Chilled to the marrow, I attem])ted to run! run! run! There was no escai)e. Weights seemed to be chained to my feet. I could not move. Those abominable forms jeered at me. ( )h, how uncomfortably hot it became! Darkness enveloped me, and Why. hello, Rosen! What are you doing at the City Hall? Since wlien were you ap])ointed to the exalted ])osition as Cashier in the Taxing Department? Did Shamberger pay his Y)Tt< Taxes yet? He paid those for 1924 yesterday, didn't he?

They are doing very well. Only recently they cleared $5,000.00 within two weeks. Their ])ractice is increasing rapidly, (iold, what's the good word? What did you say? Your firm just received a large bankru[)tcy case? No wonder you asked Mr. Lauchheimer at the University, ten years ago, about the rules governing bankruptcy Wdiat will your profit be after the bankrui)tcy proceed- ings ? Here comes Miller, followed l)y a large crowd, all gesticulating fearfully. Hello. Miller! Why all this hubljub? Heavens! Strike me deaf, dumb and blind, there's Gibson, Clark, Schultz, Moor, Sobeloff and the two ATcMullens following. They cer- tainly do make enough noise to be designated a crowd. Say Schultz, that was a rank decision you handed down to poor old Lichel at the People's Court. You want to do better in the future when "1<>15'" members of the University appear as counsel before your confounded Honor. If you don't we'll boycott you. Miller, have you paroled Barry upon the crime of larceny? He was caught steal- ing a kiss, you know! He is now acting- as legal adviser for the Young W'omen's Christian Association. Sobeloff, for heaven's sake, why are you so strict in marking the examination books of the State l!ar applicants? You were appointed to the Board of State Bar Ex- aminers to find out, not what the a])plicants don't know, but what thev do know. Hereafter see that the questions are based upon the knowledge of the api)licants. Here comes the Honorable Zieget. Notice his strut ! Don't condemn him there- for, fellows, he was just elected to the judgship at the Court of Appeals of Maryland, which accounts for his strutting about. He'll do the upright and just thing every time. Congratulations, Old Man! Gorsuch, Kartman and Zimmerman have established a law partnership, making criminal law their specialty. \\ by, fellows, when one of the firm argue their cause before the jury, the case is decided in their favor irrespective of the merits of the case. Every juryman, after the argument, feels as though he (the juryman) were a criminal, and is so ashamed that the \-erdict is always "Not Guilty." Our friend Rodgers, who is practising law in Missouri, makes the judge's head hum with the splendor of the arguments made I)efore the Court. Every word uttered by him is worth its weight in gold. (As the exact weight of a word is impossible of de- termination, Rodgers will not deprive this country of very much of that precious sub- stance, in ordinary and common parlance, designated — rightfully or wrongfully — gold. Not g'old of "1913," but plain, ordinary every-day gold, the metal). The celebrated firm of Brady, Kanode and Taylor is known the world over for its tremendous business as automobilists. lirady and Taylor acting as attorneys for the 201 S.JJSk^ NMO^y ff"/ firm, that is, their practice lies largely in seeing that tuo heavy fines are not imposed ujxin and hy the meek (?), nnpretentious ( ??), silent ( !!!)

Fagan and Buckley have just returned from preparing the large musical contract between the Metro])olitan ( )])era House of New \'ork and the Lyric of Baltimore. They, being musically inclined — not the ordinary incline, but the erect incline (did you ask how there could be an erect incline? I don't know, lie that as it may) they obtained the con- tract for i)rei)aration, which they did and made a haul of enough to tide them over for a few months, 'i'hev are the att<jrneys for and rei)resent the musical interests of i Baltimore. ( )ur friend Traub, having decided that law is an uni)rofitable profession, had, together with Waters, Skelly and Segarra, incorporated a liankers and lirokers Establishment three years ago, which to date, is ajjparently successful. Say, for the love of females! you noisemakers, after increasing our large gather- ing by your arri\al is no reason wdiy you should speak 100-horsepower ! Use the re- verse gear, add the clutch, jiot the oil, ap])iy the emergency l)rake and ease up on the racket. There's enough noise without your continuous chatter. Give a fellow a chance to get a word in edgewise. Let me inhale and exhale the ])ure air. I'm safe. Thanks. Say, 'i'reg.ir, how do you like your ofTice as I'nited States .\mbassador to France? You've married a little Parisian and are living hapi)ily, 1 learn. Good for you. Gans has just left for Germanv as I'nited States Ambassador thereto.

W'heley and Sill)erman ha\'e established, and as sole owners, control the Con- solidated Gas Company, furnished enough gas to most of the meml)ers of our hon- orable class, to meet their everyday needs at the Rar. Kirby, as the ]\fayor of Baltimore, is certainly looking after the best interests of the community at large. He's a wonderful executive for the City Government. Kelly, during his term as a member of the Supreme liench of lialtimore, has not once been reversed by the Court of Appeals. He knows the law. Groves, why don't you incorporate the cases decided at the Court of .\i)peals in proper form? You've been official State Reporter these past ten years, and yet, you fail to show us, the legal profession, how to rtnd the law without looking for it. Brown gives fair decisions at the People's Court, so that in all likelih( ne wu be reappointed, while Lichtenberg resignetl his position to take his seat as a member of the Supreme Bench of lialtimore City. Griggs is about to retire upon his income from the field of the legal profession. And yet, people say there's no money in law! Burgan was appointed Assistant Dean of the Law School of the University last fall, to supersede the Honorable Caesar, who retired — not got tired, but retired — which accounts for the school being so very progressive and is becoming famous the world over, as a great institution of learning. I am sorry to leave you boys, but my clients will be furious at my long absence fnjm the office, where they are probablv waiting to consult me. Good luck to each of you individually and collectively. May you all be prosperous, successful and happy in doing justice and upholding the splendor of the legal ])rofession. In your battles through life, always remember with joy and pride, and keep the pleasant memory fresh, of the happy days we spent at the University as the "1915 Class." Goodbye.

Having very little of him tc say, I shall, therefore, hid him a pleasant good-day. To write very much about him would be doing him an injustice, for he is reticent, thus imposing a difficult burden upon his biogra- pher. This nuich, however, can be said of him: he is studious, gives intelligent answers to questions at quizzes, does well at examina- tions, and helps a fellow who seeks such aid. What is known of him is good. Perhaps he has some bad traits. If such he has they are effectually concealed. Good luck to you, ISuckley, in your practice of law, when you shall be permitted to prac- tice such. [OHN W.M.TI'.K Bl'KSCHIvI,. r.altimore City College 1<H1.

Let us base our thoughts upon something more substantial than the transj)arent and unstable future. Ap])]v the brake to the eternal wheel for a short while. Let the whirring be silenced temporarily. Now we are ready to look back u])on our i)ast doings, which shall, hereafter, be termed the History of the 1915 Class of the Law Department of the L'niversity of Maryland. On the 23rd day of September, l'U2, we all trudged into the lecture hall, wearing our best clothes, our hair nicely combed, our ties perfectl}- arranged, everything absolutely perfect ; w^ith our heads swelled with the thoughts that we were on the verge of having the flood gates of the whole body of laws (sacredly guarded) opened for us, so that we might bathe and wallow in the law, to finally come out thereof clean, and with the laws absorbed through our skins (sometimes thnnigh ourljrains). Our hopes were high. We soon learned that to get the law firmly fixed in (jur heads we had to work and dig. And dig hard, at that. Little by little the glamor of our expectations dwindled until now we arri\ed at the conclusion that nothing can be obtained (of value) without giving some valuable consid- eration in return; therefor (according to the law of contracts) the consideration in our case being "hard work." During our first year little of n(jte occurred. W'e were getting accustomed to the novelty of being i)ermitted to do as we i)leased without being sent to the Chief to be chas- tised because of absence, improi)er conduct, devilment, and the like. On September 29, 1913, we returned as the Intermediate Class, which class was des- tined to become famous as the real s]iirit of the University. It was during this year that the merger between the Baltimore Medical College, with all its branches, and the University of Maryland was finally consummated under the name of the present University of Mary- land. Our first banquet given as a class was held December 18, 1'-'13, at Kernan's Hotel, after which we adjourned to the Maryland Theatre, where several boxes and rows of seats in the orchestra had been reserved for our class. G. Ridgeley Sappington and Howard 15ryant were guests of honor, both making s])eeches which will long linger in the memory and be relished by those assembled to do honor at the debut of our class into banquetdom. 225 S.MSk^ f^AfO'^ //'V Julius Zictjet was toastniaster. 11. J. ("lold, E. F. Miller aud C. P). Smyth were selected as :<|)eakcrs from our class, all of whom did excepticjnally well as orators. The Dixie Sercnaders rendered delightful music, which helped to digest the unusual and exceptionally well pre]>ared, well ordered, well served and appetizing courses at this never-to-be-forgotten banquet. \'ell after yell exploded from the throats of the assembled bancjueters between courses, as well as at the i)erformance which followed the banquet. Baseball took a iirm hold of the Intermediate Class, which class excelled both in in- terest an.l actions, even the Seniors of that date. Our class ])Ut the L'niversity of AIar_\land u\)nn the College athletic map. We took the initiati\e in nearly c\ery undertaking com- menced at the school for the benefit of all. Messrs. 1!. C. Lightner and Jos. .V. liaggerty. of the baseltall team, deserve credit for their method in handling the baseball situation by getting the confidence of the Faculty and students to acquiesce in the venture. ( )n February 3, i''14, j. L.. Schamberger. of our class, gave a box party at the Mar_\- land i'heatre to some of his law school friends. The performance was thoroughly enjoyed bv all those i)resent. who greatU- a])i)rcciated the kind thought of Schamberger. Among those invited and |)resent were D. F. and H. A. McMullen. I!, j.

"Cii"and])a'" (/iofif, in a j)layful mood, during judge HoiuTs leclnrc. held a lighted match to Abe Koseiilhal's hair, which ignited and flared up like a gas-jet. During the excitement.

It was at the enti of the second year that our class had the distinction of having Simon Silverberg, Simon E. Sobelotf, M. .McK. Traxers, Henjamin C. Cold, Ccorgc 1,. Cotl and .\braham Rosenthal take and successfullv pass the State Har examination, thus jier- mitting them to practice law one year before graduation. W ilh a few other incidents we adjourned our class for the summer vacations. The ollicers ol our class at the ter,i;ination of the iiiteiiuediale \ear were as follows: 226 S.MSk a. N^o^ '1'*^ Day Section — President, julins Zies^et ; \ ice-President, Paul M . Taylor; Secretary, P)ruce C. Liglitner; Treasurer, Isador Kartnian ; llistorian. K. 1{. Kanode; Sergeant-at- Arnis, H.

On ( Jctoher 12, P)14, at 4 P. W. a meeting of the day cla>s of the vSen.iors was called for the i)uri)ose of electing Senior ofticers. The following were elected : Day Section — President, Pruce C.

Gold is ])racticing law, and has opened a law office in P.altimore City, while Abraham Rosenthal became associated in the practice of law, with Samuel Want, one of the Law Faculty of the Law Department of the University of Maryland. We all had our fill of examination worry. Those hideous examinations are the buggy- boo of each member of our class. They almost drive the students mad with fear, which is not well founded in our classmates, f(jr we are considered e.\cei)tionally intelligent. The Senior Class of the Law Department gave a theatre [)arty and dance at the Acad- emy of Music on December 24, 1'J14. The ])erformance, ■'I'ai)a"s Darling,'" was an e.xceedingly clever ])roduction. After the performance, the dance hall was thrown open and to the strains of n^elodious music the Seniors gave obeisance to terpsichore practices until the wee small hours of morning. Messrs. Samuel Want and R. G. vSappington of the Faculty were present with their re- spective wives, all of which members attending the dance enjoyed themselves immenseh'. Following the enjoyment obtained at the theatre party and dance, we were comi)elled to study for our semi-annual examinations which were held at the end of January, PH.^, which, fortunately, most of our classmates successfuilv jiassed.

'iMiese individuals had heard many exaggerated stories about the hazing carried <jn within and without the portals of the dear old L'. of M. There were some grou])s who were determined to re- sist the hazers. while others came in meekly, thoroughly convinced that the only way to co])e with the u])])er-classmen was by being humble and re- spectful. And when the said individuals were ushcrc 1 up to the Anatomical llall, where the Stiffs reside, they felt that thev were surely walking into a tra|). 'Phev huddled around in the aforementioned lecture rof)m where tobacco smoke hcl])s cure the freshness of idle youth, and gives clearer insig'ht to the clouded brains. I'.ut, the fears of the Fre.shies were unfounded. Thcv afterwards found the upper-classmen to be a line bunch. After the fears had jiartly worn off, ui)on the ai)i)carance of the lecturer, doubtless the first impression conceived in the minds of most of them, as they beheld the almost countless hosts of law students preparing to worship the shrine of lllackstone, was one of doubt and nu'sgiving, |)crha])s best expressed by the (|Ucstion: "Jf all these lawyers ])ractice with me, Wdiere in the thunder can 1 get a fee." Hut, as the writer stated abo\e, the I<"reshies found the u|)per-classmen to be a line bunch of men. 'J'he only thing for which they could be blamed was that thev did not Iielj) the Freshies organize their class, and as a result the class was not organized until late in the year. After a considerable amount of work and debating on the jiart of the members of the class, the l''k) Class was organized. The officers we shall elect next year are going to be the pick of the class, who will carrv the Shi]! of Stale through the high seas after it has been so ;ibl\- manned llirongii the shallows. It will not be amiss to refer to some of the incidents that occurred during the inter- mediate year. 'ITere are (|uite a mmiber of incidenls whii'h should be mentioned in this brief narrative, but because of the limitation of space, onl\ a ])oilion of them can be given, and only a flashlight glimpse of those. 232 N^Or^ 7'V Tlirongh the energetic work of the Pin Committee, consisting of Chairman Duvall and Messrs. ( )ldhauser and Kohlerman. a ])in wliich is well worthy of being termed that of the V)\(^ Class was selected. 'I'he majority of the members are wearing one of these [)ins, and the others regret that thev did not order one. There was organized by a number of members of the class a literary society, which meets every Friday evening. At which time the members try to demonstrate their elo- quence and train themselves to be some day termed "silver-tongued orators." It is ho])ed that the society will do a great deal ;-f good towards accomplishing the aforenamed i)ur- pose. The name of the societ\- is the Henry 1). Marian Literary Society. 'J'he oflicers elected to serve during the intermediate year are as follows: President — (i. 'l\vler vSmith, the man who tries totell \()U that if yon will jjcrmit him to write a policy of insurance for you he will guarantee that you will never regret breaking your neck. Nevertheless Tyler is a good fellow, and he is endeavoring to do a great deal for the benefit of the class. \'ice-President — J. Newill (iraham, the Chestertown Pie Eater. The writer sui)])oses that Newill is the champion ])ie eater of the town, because Newill will not disclose whv his fellow-classmen from the E'lstern v^hore have nicknamed him "Pie." One would think that a great pie eater would not have very much si)irit, but such is not the case with this "Pie." Graham has plenty of it (not pie, l)Ut sjjiritj. Treas- urer— Robert J. McGregor, although very cheerful and always smiling, Mac is very energetic. Secretary — W . Lester lialdwin, the man who informs the press what we are doing. His- torian— Charles M. Cover, the man. who wmte the great historv of the DU) Class in black and white. In the early ])art of the year a committee was appointed to consult with the pho- tographers in reference to taking a snaj) of our mugs. lUit liecause the class was of the opinion that thev did not desire, as the old saying goes, to i)ay for a l)roken camera, the said picture was not taken for some time, liut on Saturday, December 12th, a few of the loyal ones who had power enough to resist the sights of Lexington street appeared at the University and the picture was snai)])ed. A cojjy of the same can be seen in this book. There have been a great many well argued cases in the Intermediate Practice Court, and many of the memliers have ])roven that thev know something al)0Ut oratory and ]ier- suasive speaking. I mav here mention a few of the well-remembered incidents: Allan made himself famous b\- the following remark, which he made while rebutting the argument of the ()i)posing counsel who had made a statement that because one princijjle was true the converse was also true — "Gentlemen, because jteaches are sweet that does not say that all sweet things are ])eaches." There was a great deal of laughter when Cop- inger, in a nervous state of mind, and with his face highly colored from fright said, while holding a four thousand ])age volume of Cyc in his hand — "Judges Honorable, let me read you fr(Mn my 'little' book." 233 a. (VA/dA/. ffi'i^ Cover has been the only member who has succeeded in making the class, sitting as judges, believe that the law as laid down by some of the highest state courts was so made bv a bunch of farmers and butchers. And he created quite a sensation when he C|Uoted some of Professor IJagby's famous remarks, which were made while lecturing upon his course on Testamentary Law; and also when he c|Uoted what one of the professors had said in reference to his case (what he ciuoted will not be put in print). As he tossed one of the voluminous volumes of Cyc m his hand, he demonstrated that he had some powerful voice, as well as a strong arm, and a voice that will undoubtedly cause the court rooms to ling in future years with his eloquence. The Historian desires to state that the aforegoing section in reference to himself was not composed by him, but was so composed by Clyde Insley. \\\ the way, Clyde deserves to be mentioned here; although he is not one of the kind who do a great deal of talking, he is always on hand with the goods. The writer has spoken of the above incidents as having occurred during the interme- diate year. He did not speak of that which was done by the intermediate class, because the said class changes every year, but the great history of the intermediate year of the 1916 class exists forever. The historv of the intermediate class is an ejihemeral one as far as its component members are concerned — born in the early fall, it lives but a few months and dies in the month of roses. As a class entity, however, it exists from year to vear. It is a most essential part of our career as students at the Law School, for "tis only when we pass fro.n the infant (junior) class to the intermediate, the first stake, the lirst turning ])oint, and conimence to haul up to the linish of our triangular course, that we begin to realize just what it all means and our eyes oi)en to the real work before us. .And as the second turn gives us the base of the triangle, so in our intermediate year the base of our law course. Into it are crowded subjects of great im- portance when our race is won, although some of the hrst year subjects were far more interesting. And, we surely miss the interesting and instructive lectures of our friends such as Professors Dickerson and liond. Anw now, in closing, permit the writer to state that he hojies all the members of the great Class of Y)\() will return next year, when, as Seniors, they will linish their work and leave their dear .\lma Mater to enter the struggle of life, in a new line, in the arena of th.e world. In the turmoil and strife which awaits every ambitious, energetic lawyer, it is certain that many moments will come when his mind, thirsting for refresh- ment, will re\crt to the haiipv davs of their struggles with the aw. he has been faith- ful, his jjrofession 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 which have long since absorbed enough tobacco smoke and law to become humanly fanciful. Step bv stej) they shall lia\c marched forward, o\ercoming e\ery obstacle, breaking down fverv barrier, until the\' Nhall stand at tlu' \er\- height of their profession, rcidv to receive their ju>l reward.

ICaut i^^jartmrut HE year nineteen hundred lHjrteen In Hfteen was a ])r(dific cme I'nr liars, that is, historians. They wrote scores of l)ooks which were called his- tories. Of these only a few were extant and from them are to be gath- ered the events of the times. One of nature's picnics seemed to he in progress. In those days it was called war. The world was wicked and clever, causing the legal profession to become over-crowded. Although the battles were lought and the earth was in the throes of earth(|uakes and volcanic disturbances, yet as its center of learning, called the I'ni- versitv of .Marvland, in the Citv Baltimore, a groui) of law students were i)rci)aring to become aiders and abettors of the ])rogress of the world. The most imjjortant event recorded was the formation of the 1''17 class organiza- tion. In November that class met and after jjrofound <leliberation chose Mr. Mans Froelicher, Jr., I'resident ; Mr. jiames Uruce, \ice-president ; Air. Oakley L. v^anders. secretary: Air. O. Roger Page, treasurer and Air. A. J. Osol. representative of the L'niversity (lazette. Alany class meetings were held to discuss the welfare of the school and that of the '17 class especially. 'Po be sure, these were enthusiastic meet- ings, some were exciting. It was only the diplomacy of the President that prevented "rough house." This last exjjression was a legal term used by the jurists of the day. ( )n one occasion, during a heated discussion, the Treasurer, Mr. Page, offered to give bond as security for money which was not in his jjossession. Toward the end of the term a class ])icture was taken. So many bright ties were worn that an innocent bystander turned in a tire alarm. .\m one was injured and the camera escaped unharmed. In November of the year the students who were inclined to philosophize, to dis- cuss literature and give orations on the folly of equal suffrage, gathered to form a lit- erary society. They named it "The Edwin T. Dickerson Literary Society." The members said that Air. Dickerson's name was used not as a means to raise a mediocre society above the level t)f the commonplace, but as a stimulus to make the societv worthy of the name. Air. Ernest W. Beatty was selected president; Mr. AN'illiam L. Alurphy, vice-president : Air. G. Rogers Page, secretary : Air. Louis Seigrist, treasurer, and Air. Louis Yeager, sergeant-at-arms. Air. .Mbin \\'idofif was chosen historian and Louis Al. Silberstein, chairman of the membership committee. 241 'I'heir meetings were held e\ery 'I'uesday evening. Extemporaneous addresses were given on such subjects as: Prohibition; The I'ourth Dimension; The Single 'I'ax, etc. The members grew to be such orators that at the last meeting one of them endeavored to exi)lain the Rule Against Perpetuities. A challenge to the Henry D. Harlan Literary So- ciety to a debate was made at that meeting. A week before the examination a society was organized, the purpose of which was to enhance the general knowledge of the students. The name chosen by its scholarly mem- bers was "The Herbert Thorndike Tiffany Club." Upon the roster ai)])ears such names as Mr. Herman \\ Kassan, Mr. James liruce, Mr. 11. Froelicher, Jr., Mr. A. 1!. Makover, Mr. -A. R. Whiting. Mr. George P)lackistone, Jr., Mr. Murray T. Donoho, Mr. Herbert J. P>urke, Mr. Albin W'idotf. Mr. Oakley L. Sanders and others.

It was fascinating to watch this ])roccss, so fascinating in fact that 1 drew closer to the edge of the stream. After awhile the triangles seemed to assume fantastic sha])es and to contort them- selves into the m<jst grotesque and im])ish figures, then to grow larger and finally to beckon to me. I knew even then how strange it was lo have a figure rising out of a ri\er and beckoning to one, and vet — as it [;eckoned 1 saw there was no river, there had been none — or, if there had been, it was gone now or else it had envelo]>ed me, still I felt no water on my body — but yet I knew I was where the river should have been, for I followed the iigure that beckoned to me into what 1 thought was the stream. The air seemed heavier and of a greenish, vajxH-ous character, as we went farther into the stream but still it did not affect my resi>iration. After we had attained what would have been the middle of the stream, if there had been one, my guide told me to go under and suggested a motion very much like "ducking."' I ducked and after a second of tingling bells in mv ears and twinkling silver specks in mv eyes, I oi)ened my eyes on the most beautifully ai)i)ointed scene I have ever wit- nessed. 1 am sorrv I cannot describe the glory, the grandeur, the magnificence of this sub- aqueous court. I found myself on one knee before a dais on which stood a sparkling, pearl throne On the throne was some Prince of the sea. On either side of the carpet, on which we knelt, was flanked a line of his subjects and who appeared to be his soldiery; I say soldiery be- cause each one carried a tri-pronged fork in much the same fashion a lance would be carried. I forgot to mention that these mer-people were of the regulation half-fish, half-man type, the upper part of their bodies being similar in all respects to that of the human liody 247 d. Nfjory- ffi*^ wliile the lower half was exactly that of a tish. Their movements were very graceful : of a half swimming and gliding motion and the lower half of their bodies scintillating in a light, bright as, yet more mellow than sunlight, threw oiT the most beautiful of colors. After our genuflection was recognized by the Prince my guide made known to me that this was a gala day for the mer-people and that I was to be their honored guest, to go and come as I pleased, to have whatever I desired, in fact I was given the freedom of their realm. A delightful program was given for my amusement and 1 was made acquainted with several of the wonders of the sea with which I had not before been familiar, but the one that interested me most and the one you will be most interested in was the PROG- NOSTISCOPIC SHELL. This shell, so called by the Neptunians, had a lengthy and interesting history, some- thing about a certain beautiful cjueen of the sea who had cried her eyes out because she wanted to marry one of her subjects who was very poor and her ministers wouldn't stand for it; that sort of history, you know. Well at any rate, the shell was a rather large affair, with a single hole in the center of it. It was held for me by two of the mer-men and my guide told me that if 1 looked through this hole and asked the spirit of their departed queen to reveal any event of the future on this day she would do it. Now all this time I knew I was as awake as I ever was in my life, and also knew tliat I was doing things that, in the generally accepted course of affairs, were not usual; were so unusual in fact, as to be associated almost entirely with a certain mental condition consequent of a too bibulous night or two at the shrine of LSacchus. Still I was, wherever I was, and about to look through the hole in a magic shell, and I wasn't in the dipsomania- cal state referred to above, either. I expected some sort of hoax and by my acts must have conveyed my expectations to my guide, who very patiently assured me that it was truly as he had described. Many years back, while at Law School, 1 had taken examinations from Professors by tlie names of Coe and Chesnut, and so I thought one more chance wouldn't kill me, and after having been a member of the class that graduated in 191.^, and having survived it I felt a sort of assurance of coming out of this affair in "pretty good" shai)e at least, and so crossed my fingers and took a look. I am not going to even attempt a scientific exjilanatictn of what occurred, but am going to recount for you as near correctly as I can wliat the shell revealed. \'ou will remember 1 said when the i)ro|)()sition of looking into this shell was ])ut up to me my mind went back to the Class of 1''!.^ for assurances? Well, I asked to see some of my old classmates, and this is what I saw: Around an oblong table were grouiicd several men of serious countenances, and stand- ing al one end ol this table was a man s])eaking slowly and in a carefnlK modulated voice, lie was insisting "Such a reduction of rates is confiscatory and, being so, is unconstitutional." 248 OLNf^O^ ff'^ He had their rapt attention, and I noticed that several of the men on one side of the table every little while would nod their heads as if agreeing with the speaker and nudge their neighbor. 1 couldn't place the speaker, his forehead was very high (or else he was a little bald), and there were a few furrows in it. I was about to give up the possibility of rec- ognizing him when I noticed sticking above his end of the table the handle of an umbrella, then I knew who it was! It was none other than my old friend Smyth, C. B. Smyth, and here he was before a public service commission justifying the rates of a public service corporation, the Consolidated G'as and Electric. The umbrella was the key to that fore- head, to that slow, low voice; to that insistent style of argument and 1 remembered the old "Got your umbrella C. B.?" This view melted away and I now looked upon a scene somewhat similar. There was the table and the group and at the head of the table a speaker. The .speaker was not very large, but he was loud. He didn't seem to be getting the attention he desired, for now and then he would raise his hand and say "hear me out." During the moments he had the de- sired attention he would repeat, "Gentlemen, I know what larceny is, and we'll use ;;;v view of it. This claim is crooked and I won't jiass it if I have to — Now hear me out — "' I knew this one alright, this was Nick, our '15 Treasurer, lecturing to the agents of a big Cas- ualty Company and pulling the same old "hear me out" stuff that distinguished him at the University. I was astounded at the accuracy of the shell, and was quite a little alarmed, for this sort of thing had no place outside of xA.rabian Nights. The haze that settled over the last scene lifted and before my vision there appeared a court room with its dignified judges and sleepy jurors; there was a tremendous crowd there, and a solemn stillness pervaded everything. Before the jury box stood a figure familiar to me, but which I could not identify be- cause his back was towards me; he was pleading with the jury for the life of a woman who had, it seemed, killed her husband when he had attempted to beat her for some minor af- fair. I could not, as I have said, see the face of her counsel, but a peculiar way he had of getting up close to one of the jurors and nudging him in the ribs caused me to think of one of my old classmates who had made my side black and blue by this same nudging process while trying to sell me his Pool Parlor. After thinking about this for awhile, and in the meantime allowing my gaze to wander around the counsel table and seeing there one whom I recognized immediately to be Judge Rose's friend, G. \V. Smith, I thoug'ht of the arguing counsel's name, it was, as you have already guessed, our old friend Healey, of the then firm of Healey & Smith. And then even as the scene was shifting I heard the booming of a powerful voice, shouting anathema at the powers that be, decrying this "murderous centralization of the wealth of the whole of God's people," asking the wrath of God on the heads of those whose insatiable appetites for gold "wring the life-blood out of the hearts of the working man." 249 J perked uj) considcraljle hearing- this sort of stuff, for 1 had o-iven her Im])erial Majesty's s])irit explicit orders that I wanted to see only my old classmates, and 1 didn't rememher any of them having any such sfjcialistic tendencies as the ahove quotations indicated their author had. The haze cleared away and — ISang! A crowd, a platform, a powerful l)ooming voice and — a speaker ahout the size of a well developed peanut ! Who was it? Jgnatz, of course ! "David Carter Lc\cnson (alias Ignatz ) the working-men's saxior; candidate for election to the v^enate of the United States on the vSocialist ticket." So read the banner ahove his head. . , i j After I had recovered from the last I noticed there was a new one awaiting my atten- tion. This api)eared t(j be the corridcjr of an ui)-to-date office building. ( )ffices were ranged down either side of it. At the far end a door was open and I could see inside three men, each busily engaged in conning the i)ages of large anrl formidable Law Uooks. 'JMiey reminded me of a little statuette J had seen called the three graces, so similar in size were they. The i)icture drew nearer and 1 saw the names on the door were T'ratt, I'rem and Gutberlet, attorneys-at-law and e.x])ounders of general information. As I watched, Pratt looked uj) and said, '"It is as f said, when the cue ball is ])laced back o^ the dead line — " Goodnight! "Large and formidable Law liooks," bah! They were de ciding an argument on keeley pool. I left them not without remembering some of' thosi dear old matutinal carols we userl to sing together about (?) A. AL I noticed as I was leaxing tw(j messengers came out of tlieir office and one messenger said to the other, "(iec! Dose guvs is got all de fi-nan-shul business around here." 1 wasn't sin])rised for. although it sounds paradoxical tf) be big practitioners and still have time for keeley. 'twas ever thus wun the three graces. This was indeed a pleasant pastime, notwithstanding its unusualness. I was afraid 1 w^ould not have time to see more of the class, but my guide told me that I had hardly been at the shell at minute. T recognized the locality of the setting that now presented itself before me as being that incomparable section of .Marxland known internationally as "Halethor])e." Specifically, the scene was the court house and "court" was in session. The crowds from all about the circuit were in for court and to render their respects to their newdv elected judge. In- side the crier had banged his stave and was crying, "( )h, \ea ! oh, yea! ( )h _\-ea ! etc., this court is now convened." My attention had fieen distracted by the crier, and wdien I looked U]) to see the new incumbent of this district bench 1 was almost knocked to me knees on seeing there none other tiian our old friend josh. Xow, llis Honor Joshua S. Hull, Chief judge of the Circuit of Maryland. On this da\- the criminal side of the court ( 1 mean the Physical court, not llis Honor) was in session and the new District .\ltorne\- was also to make his debut. Imagine the thoughts that Hocked to m\ mind when this prosecutor Inrnt'd out tn be John Magers. l''s(|., 250 ^.JJ-^^h'^ /VVd of the firm of Makers &: Hull. It looked like a "coming and going" game to me, sort o' both ends against the middle, hnt the pe(j])le who elected them had the same coidklence in them as we who knew them well at school had; that no matter what the situation. Josh and jack could he depended on to handle it fairly and s(|uarely, liT CON UllERAME FIDES. 1 next saw a little way station in the Far West, and it was early morning. Hunched U|) on the bench in front of the closed dejjot was a figure that would shift its ])osition every now and then in that fruitless endeavor to find a sleepable i)lace on a railroad company's station bench. I felt sorry for this fellow because 1 recognized him, anrl I knew how in class he alwavs ])icked the soft shoulder of Gougli for his na])s during lectures, and 1 knew well that he was in sorry ])light indeed if he couldn't fmd a ])lace to lay that weary head of his. His baggage lay at his feet and on his lug-check 1 read "iM-ed. E. Fauch, Sjieciai Agent Maryland Casualty Co., lialtimore." Fred, it seems, was carrying his Legal Knowledge to jdaces whei'c they had none, and had missed a train, consequentlv the outside repose. The shell's next revelation was another court room, this time a United States District Court. Before the bench was a dapper little figure that talked well and was a]ii)arently una- ware of the existence of any one in the court but the Judge and himself. His colleague, a rather large person, sat at the counsel table bitin.g his finger nails and taking notes in short- hand. I was sort of familiar with the line of stuff the gentle. nan on his feet was giving the judge, and felt sort of acquainted with his style, but was unable to ])lace him until I heard him start on the 27th section of the L'niform Sales Act, and then, oh well, then I remem- bered him for a thousand things. Who was the last Sergeant-at-Arms ? Who was short- stop on the Baseball Team? Who lost their go-away bag going to Westminster? Who went through the Dental Department's skylight' Who nearly sold Speed Keys? Who is '"Jiggs"' or Dinny, or Jack? There could be but one, and that one ( )"Donohue. His i)artner was that man wIkj, on the Baseball Team proved that if you let vour ene- mies think they can lick you and go right on ])laying ball your aforesaid enemies will come around after the game and buy a drink. This was the firm of Wortche and O'Dono- hue, specializing in practise before the federal bench. By an imperceptible change 1 was gazing on a scene that started my heart to beat a little stronger. It was ]iartlv the imi)ressiveness of the surroundings, but the greater ])art was attributable to the oratory of this man who, by careful inflection and dynamic, held a stern visaged grouj) of men's attention, held it so closely that e\en in this immense audito- rium a ])in could be heard to droj) as he spoke: "Mr. Speaker, and you, honored gentlemen, I beseech you in behalf of the honor of the fair State we are ])ermitted to represent, not to blight her fair history, not to befoul her purity, not to allow our own fair Maryland to be stained with this ignoble and disgraceful statute that a selfish and dishonorable l)odv asks you to inscribe on her statute books." This eloquence, this force, I could not mistake. The si)eaker was State ^senator Charles B>. Kelso. 1 was not sur])rised that Charlie had been 251 ^.JJ'^ha- ^/^» sent to the Senate ; I had often wondered why his fellow-citizens had not done so earlier. Then came a scene that was different from any of those that hatl gone before ; this time it was the office of a big tobacco company, and two men were in some sort of an ar- gument. One of the two, a little fellow with a Yankee twang to his voice, was telling the other, the president of the company, that a certain shipment could not be made and must not be made to a certain territory, and if the com])any was so anxious to shij) that it could not wait on his advice the company could discontinue its $,SO,000.00 annual retainer and em- ploy other counsel, that he was too busy anyhow to be bothered with such trifling mat- ters. Who? None other than Charles B. You know they have that kind of stuff' in New England, and Redfield was putting a little of it out down here and I agree with him that some of it is needed. Employ counsel? Wliy, I think I can handle this situation alright. Any time any- thing like this occurs let me know, said William. You see I saw Lurssen in his office, and there were some there who didn't know he was "one of those fhings" and they were about to indulge in that expensive pleasure — a lawyer. When they saw this they said then well make him counsel general of the comi)any and that is how Lurssen came to be promoted from secretary. What's that you have with you, officer? I heard t^iis as the ])relude to the scene that next confronted me. The officer spoken to had with him what in jwlice circles is known as "a Souse." "One dollar and costs," said the first orator. Then I got it! I was looking upon the proceedings in a precinct court and His Honor was he, who in days long since consigned to history, was wont for the small sum of $1.10 to aid and abet in the consummation of that event that meant joy to a few, sorrow to some and disaster to many: marriage. Mr. jus- tice O'Neill sat his bench in the 6'Hh precinct "wid all th' pom]) and dignity" those of the Latin-European countries can so well assume. 1 was ex])ecting the power of the shell to weaken from such continued use and in politeness offered to give up a further inspection of my old classmates in their new roles but my guide said the power of the shell could not be lessened by use and prayed me con- tinue. It was easy to do so, for I was really anxious to see just a few more, so 1 i)Iaced my eye to the hole again and called for the Class of '\5. Then came a very large building which 1 recognized as being in Baltimore, and in the vicinity of Charles and IJaltimore streets. It was a small room and in it a man really too large to be in ])roportion with the room, for he was a big man ph_\sically, as was he a big man legally, es])ecially in regard to co-()pcrati\c sa\ing and loan features of a big rail- road system. Such was liob Craham. Seeing liob recalled three others who were more or less associated with him. and I suppose concentration cau.sed the next jiicturc to \isualize them. It was a big ollice in a modern office building and below the names of Stocksdale, lioycr and Zimmerman a|)- pcared the name of "So and So Adjustment Corporation." So this was where tlu'\ were 252 and were working the adjustmenL and real estate line! I remembered that Zimniey had had quite a lot of experience in this line and that Judge Niles had given "Stocks" quite a chance at the real estate end of it, hut where did iiilly Ik^yer come in in this hrm? As this thought crossed my mind out walked Hill and a very handsome woman and I overheard something about: "Do you think it will be a "X'incuio or just a Mensa?" So the tirm was in for adjusting things other than credits, and this end was Bill's. Then to mv view came the very busy courts of Baltimore City and the various court rooms passed in review before me, showing in each of them the following men who were once close to me : In the Criminal Court I was surprised to see gracing the bench of that tribunal His Honor W. S. Goodrich, and at the State's side of the counsel table to rind as State's At- torney Samuel Hofberger and his deputy. Max Greenblat. There was a trial in progress, the tra\erse being a \i(jlation of the usury laws. Knowing that the defense of this crime was a very difficult one, 1 was especially interested in knowing who the lawyer for the de- fense was. Who was it in the class who would know how to justify exorbitant rates? 1 was thinking of some of the members of the class who could possibly do it when the question was answered for me by the defendant's counsel rising to his feet to enter an objection. 1 was not at all surprised to see the \'irginian in this role and don't know why I didn't think of him at rirst. Who in the class, with the possible exception of Healey, would know m(;re about it than jack Elly? In the City Court judge Schlessinger was hearing a case f<jr damages riled by one John Doe against one Sam Lasch iov injury caused by the negligent manner in which the defendant's workmen had installed some plumbing. Then came the Superior Court of l^altim ore City. Here in this sjjacious marble room, with its lofty ceilings and its walls decked with the portraits of great jurists, was being enacted a most pathetic scene. The case was a negligence case, and one that stirred the passions of the whole community. Before the jury box, filled with attentive men, stood the plaintiff's attorney, a young man with iirematurely g'ray hair, and beside him, in an in- valid chair, was his client, a very beautiful young girl. He was "closing," and I stood breathless as I listened. "Gentlemen, it is not necessary that I bandy with words or rhetorical figure to have you appreciate the grossness, the culpable, aye! the criminal negligence of this defendant, and the heart-rending, pathetic result. This young lady, beautiful before the eyes of all the world, stricken down in the blossoming time of her life, and if left to herself to provide means of locomotion would have to resort to that method of the lowest of God's creations — a reptile." Here he paused and a plaintive little voice, barely audible, tho" heard clearly by every one in the room, asked: "I am very thirsty, won't you please place this 253 <x r^NOf^ ff'^ j^lass lo my li]>s?" W'itli tears streaming freely down his cheeks, lie did as she asked, and then tnrned to the jnry and continned the most elocjnent address I ha\c ever heard. 1 conld not mistake this eloquence, for I had heard him make his lirst puhlic siieech at our junior llanquet in 1912, and even then we knew that J. Lawrence Sullivan would come to he a man to be reckoned with before a jury. I would have liked longer to view this last scene, but knew if I were to locjk too kjng at any one ])icture 1 mig'ht miss some of the other memlters of that class that had reared so man\- now famous men. Next came the Circuit Court of Baltimore City, and here before his Honor C. H. Kratz, Messrs. Frost & Record defended against the allegations of Messrs. Cathcart and Yost, the conjugal and domestic interests of a much sinned against husband, while Messrs. \'(jst and Cathcart declared the wife to be more sinned against than sinning. In the Equity Court an e.xtraordinar\- ])roceeding was taking i)lace. Here, in this re- l)ositorv of exce])tionally good conscience, ordinarily stitT and decorous baililifs were throw- ing their shoulders u]) in the air and slyly snapjiing their fingers in the most a|)i)roved jar- din de Danse fashion, while from the corner of the room came the seductive strains of a new fox trot. I was, of course, astounded by this evident laxitv of legal dignity, and utterly at a loss to exjilain it. It occurred to me that 1 should not think anything strange after the whole ]>roceeding of a sober man looking through a mystic shell somewhere at the bottom of some ri\er, or that since the shell was an established thing, that perhai)s it was losing its power, or that at last 1 was "coming to." Soon, however, my fears (jr si)eculations were set aside and incidentally 1 was set aright. It was a case of mistake in a contract between a mu^ic publishing house and a com- poser. ( )ne contending he had contracted the |>ublicatiiin ot one thing, the other that he had contracted the ])ublication of another. The counsel for the plaintiff being Henry S. Ceiglein, doctor, nntsician, scientist, art- ist and lawyer, was demonstrating to the court the dilterence between a walt/.e and a fo.x trot. In .'superior Court ( I'art Two) Atlornex's I'.alachow and l'';igan besoughl the court to grant them a prayer that would gi\e them a verdict against the city, while CUy ."solicitor lirueble said he nexer heard of such a thing. Down in the ( )r])han"s Court jinnnie Harper, now President of a large Title (.'oni- pan_\-, was filing an ( )r(ler Xisi and thinknig of a pair of white trousers and tennis raccjuet and tlie days when he could pla\' baseball or tennis without caring whether Philip H. l,en- derking's estate had been proi)erly a<lministie<l or not. 254 r/A/6r/ /f'*^ In Circuit Court (I'art Two) Win. AIcK. 'J'ravers wcus <^cttin<^- a decree A'X'iuculo signed. At this point the hght in the sheU's pcrsiiective seemed to grow (hm as if to end the revelations, and I thought sure 1 would have soniethin<^- on it then because it had not shown me all the members of the Class of 1913. Jake" Schroeder. had not yet heard from old pal "Uncle Again the shell proved to be a really great shell, for its atmosphere cleared, and this time showed me not a court room, but a room where some inciuisition was taking place. I heard very faintly at first as one hears a repeated saying as he awakes: It is so, it ah — is — so — It — show — showme — showmeyour ! Show me your authority ! Then I got it all. Jake was before the Master in Chancery and th'ey were having an argument with the same result, the master asking fcjr Jake's authority and Jake insisting his i)oint was right without offering or thinking it necessary to oiTer an authoritv. Then with a slow and even motion, the ])icture faded into the distance, and all be- came black on the other side of the hole and 1 realized 1 had seen all of the Class of 1915. 1 sjioke to my guide, telling him to conve\- m\- thanks to his Highness the I'rince and to escort me back — back to wherever 1 had come from. He nnnnbled something and 1 took it that he acquiesced. He seemed not to be as coru-feous as he had been and in fact the whole party seemed to have depreciated in temperature. We came at last to His Highness' throne, and here the same court abounded but much if not all of its Iteautv was gone and it seemed just a c(.)ld and greenishly gloomy place, and getting worse all the time. 1 stooped to make my one-knee adieu to His Highness, not kn(jwirig but feeling 1 was going to leave his realm soon and go — well, I didn't kn(.)w where 1 could go. I genuflected and as I straightened up I realized all was not right and f sort o" made out the expression, "get uji out of that! What's the idea of making an ass out of \ourself before all .these people?" It seemed a j^erfect Isabel, this new i)Iace full of many-throated imps and a wild fan- tasy (jf
