Capt. H. D~ Fowler, Class of 1857. Will Pass Century

Mark February 28

WaRe Forest College soon will ha.i:e an a1umnus 100 years old.

This interesting fact was recently brought to light with the receipt of a letter by the library from a nephew of Capt. H. D. Fowler, Duarte, California. Capt. Fowler, who will be 100 years old on February 28, 1923, graduated with the class of 1857.

A photograph of the old captain ac­companied the letter, which showed the centenarian alumnus to be hale and strong despite the fact that he has been out of college for three-quarters of a century. He takes his exercise regu­larly and gets about with very little aid of the walking stick.

Following are parts of the letter tell­:ng of Mr. Fowler: "At the outbrea:k of the Civil War my uncle entered the Confederate army as second lieutenant in Company I, 1st N. C. Regiment, which formed a part of the famous D. H. Hill's division, •and soon ailvanced to captain of his company. He took part in the Seven Days' Battle around Rich­mond and was in the thick of the fight at Malvern Hill. He also served under Fitzhugh Lee. His division and Jack­home- where the people lov~ me."

On February 13, Prof, P. H. Wilson formally announced his candidacy to represent Wake County in the Gen­eral Assembly .. His platform, in part, provides for a revisal of the state sys­tem of taxation in such manner as will prevent the small land owner from be­ing forced out of his home on account of practical confiscation by the govern­ment.

Professor Wilson is a Democrat, 38 years of age. Last May he voluntarily retired from the Recorder's Court judgeship at Wake Forest. He now serves as commander of the Ninth dis­istrict of the American Legion, which · embraces the counties of 'Vake, Frank­lin, Johnston, Chatham, and Lee. He taught French at N. C. State College during the session 1921-22 and since then has been a member of the Modern Language Department of Wake Forest College.

B. S. U. Reflections

In an address at Meredith College Friday, February 5, Dr. Kitchin spoke of the early leaders in Baptist work as follows: "If we live fully, it is be­cause they sacrificed and toiled; if we see clearly, it is because we stand on their shoulders; if we have traveled far. it is because they are pioneers and as such, blazed trails, made surveys, and thus open to posterity illimitable reaches. Ours ar~ treasures which neither motll nor rust nor thief nor panic can endanger. Yea, we have a goodly heritage."

Prone to Fm;get Baptists in this world of fast living

are prone to forget what their early predecessors handed down to them. Without their tireless effort, we would not have the mighty organization that we have today; without their integ­rity, we could not sing with pride, "How Firm a Foundation"; without their tenacity, we would be unable to speak of the "Faith of Our Fathers."

A Heritage What Washington, Jefferson, and

Hamilton were to our nation, these trail blazers of Baptist faith were to our denomination. Through thick and thin our forefathers stood for princi­ples and advanced causes on which we pride ourselves today.

Verily, we have a "goodly heritage." This fact should be an imperative chal­lenge to every Baptist to do all within his power to preserve, enlarge, and pass on to posterity this glorious heritage. I ment among- colleges of the South

DEPTH· SOUNDERS FOR AIRCRAFT·

W ITH the application of electricity to aircraft · instruments, another chapter was written in the

-annals of air transportation. To-day's ship is not only swifter but safer and more dependable. Modern depth-sounding devices indicate instantly the height of the ship above the ground surface. A unique feature of General Electric's receRtly purchas~td monoplane -is the almost completely electrified instrument panel.

The most recently developed instrument is the sonic altimeter, which provides a quick means of indicating changes in height above ground. Sound from an

GENERAL

intermittently operated air whistle is directed down­ward. The echo is picked up-in a receiving megaphone, and the sound is heard through a stethoscope. The elapsed time between the sound and the echo determines the height. Tests show that water, build­ings, woods, etc., produce echoes that a(e different and characteristic.

Besides developing a complete system of.aircraft in· struments, college-trained General Electric engineers have pioneered in every electrical field-on land, on sea, and in the air.

Sixteen years ago this week Wa)te Forest was getting ready for the base­ball season. Captain Holding, Franks, Beaver, R. Holding, Rolly, Hall, Moore, Carlyle, Ellis and Whitley were out­standing candidates.

The 1916 Holvler had been compiled and was expected to be a record­breaker. It was dedicated to Dr. Wil­liam B. Royall, who had completed his fiftieth year as a teacher at Wake Forest.

The Gideon Sunday School Class Basketball Team was to play Maple­ville High School at 8 o'clock, and an interesting game was assured.

"Publius" wrote a letter to the ed­itor, stre!lsing fire prevention and urg­ing the students to be careful with cigars and cigarettes, and "to refrain from re-wiring, o1· tampering with elec­trical connections."

"We specialize in Klassy Klothes for Young Men. $10.00, $15.00, $20.00" announced The Vogue.

Selig, Edison and Vitagraph. 'Neal of the Navy' every Friday, and'Who Pays' every Monday night."

"E. Allen-Dealer in Turpentine, Coffins, Caskets, .Stoves and Ranges. Picture Frames made to order by stu­dent representatives."

Dr. W. L. Poteat was to deliver an address on "Evolution" at the Y. M. C. A. in Charlotte.

"Wake Forest suffers first defeat of the season, losing to Roap.oke College at Salem, Va." The Demon Deacons defeated V. M. I. 40-16 on the same trip, preventing the Cadets from scor­ing in the second half. The Deacons were setting sail for a state cham­pionship.

WORKS OF McNEILL, FAMOUS ALUMNUS, BACK IN PRINT IN

NEW ANNIVERSARY EDITION

(Continued from page one)

We played when I was there­Round-town, low-razor, bull-pen, cat,

Base, leap-frog, hounds and hare. Perhaps the spring is choked with

leaves; Perhaps the church is gone,

With all its shattered panes that told Of wild balls thrown.

Who'er the children are, I know The same old noise is there:

The droning whisper, afternoons When chalk-dust fills the air.

The same old fractions multiplied. The same old cities named;

Mensa, mensae is still declined. And Spartacus declaimed.

But, ob, the vines of muscadines That cluster in those woods!

Those ripe persimmons, banging high, Loose in their browning hoods;

Those tough dwarf-apples, full of seed, Are ready now to eat.

And thorns of prickly-pear, though dead,

Ar"'- quite 9.lert fOl' feet.

If I should go there now, those brats Would stare into my face

And whisper who that stranger was , That sauntered 'round the place. But, though the tow-heads knew me

not, I could have all my will

Of those dear memoried haunts

At old Spring Hill.

What Others Have Said Tile late President Theodore Roose­

velt (Note): "Mr. McNeill's poetry is an achievement of which the Common­wealth of North Carolina and the South have a right to be proud."

The late Edward Kidder Graltam, President oi the University of Nort11 Carolina: " ... The first North Caro­lina poet to win the ear of the whole state. His poetry possesses the divine gift of ministering to some need of the spirit, as when a simple heart song speaks the heart of all mankind .... McNeill's intimate knowledge of the negro, his warm sympathy with moods, ztnd his graceful gift of reproducing negro melody put his dialect poems (Lyrics from Cotton Land) easily among the best in contemporary American journalism. But it is his "Songs, Merry and Sad," that wins for

-----------------------him a permanent place in Southern literary history."

The late C. Alphonso Smith, of the University of Virginia: "In the dea~ of John Charles McNeill North Caro­lina loses the finest poetic genius ever born within its borders. He surpasses his contemporaries in natural endow­ment, in range and delicacy of sympa­thy, in loving familiarity with the homes and· habits of woodland things, in subtle knowledge· of the great primal emotions of the heart, and in that still rarer gift of craftsmanship without which the greatest genius must remain inarticulate. : . . I would rater have written 'Songs, Merry and Sad,' than to have the costliest monu­ment in the State erected to my mem­ory. The equal of that little volume bas not appeared since Sidney Lanier fell asleep." •

United States Senator Josiah Wll· liam JJniley: "Mr. McNeill's poetic gift bears these marks: it is lyric; it is genuine; it is of the sun rather than the lamp; it is close to nature-the earth, the seasons, man and beast, home and daily round of experiences. . . • It is spontaneous rather than la­bored. There is pathos and humor·; I but above ;;ither the strain of tender..­ness is dominant. Such songs as 'Oh,( Aslc :Me Not,' 'A Christmas Hymn,' 'Harvest,' and 'Vision' are tokens of a rich vein of genuine gold." ·

Dr. Clarence Poe, Editor of The Pro­gressive Farmer: "Big-hearted, hu­.nan, lovable, North Carolina country· Jred b.oy .... who knew the common .hings about our fields and forests and ;ang about them .... His sensitive na­:ure could divine the tenderest _feel­:ngs of 'The Little White Bride,' could laugh with barefoot boys on Lumber ~iver; could tongue love's sweetest 1reams in such poems as 'Oh, Ask Me ~ot'; could look straight to God in Christmas and Easter hymns; could :eel the tragic barrenness in the life Qf 'The Drudge'; whose heart beat with ?ity even for the outcast woman; who lived so close to nature that the mood :>f every season found magical expres->ion in his fancy." I

CJuU"lotte Observer: "McNeill was the Robert B_urns of the South and for j that matter of America No one else has glorified the clod, illumed the furrow, and enveloped the little farm­house with its family and environ­ments in such true and tender ·colors as he. . . • His head was high and full above the ear with a heavily-arched brow. There was a calm music· in his voice and a sad depth in the wonderful
