Y.  M. C  A.  Greeting;. 

T he  Y o u ng  Men's  Christian 
Association  extends  a  cordial  wel 
come  to  the  College  students  both 
old  n e w.  As  the  fall  campaign 
opens,  the co-operation  of all Chris 
tian  residents  at  the  College  is in 
vited,  that  we may  lay the  founda 
tion  for  t he  association  work 
this 
year  both  broadly  and  thoroughly. 
L et  former  members  of  the Y.  M. 
C.  A. bend  every  effort  in t he work 
for  the new students.  L et us  un 
dertake  this  important  task  with the 
most 
to  it 
thorough  consecration 
and  to the  Master. 

T h e n,  a  word  to  new  students. 
You  w ho are  recently  come  are 
earnestly  invited  to enter  the  Chris 
tian ^Association  at  the earliest  date 
It means  much  to a young 
possible. 
man  if  he starts 
right,  and  if you 
identify  yourself  with  this  Christian 
organization  you are surely  on  the 
right  road,  at this  the outset  of  your 
college  life. 

Announcements 

concerning  re 
ceptions  and Y. M. C. A.  meetings 
will  be  posted  later.  T he Y. M. 
C.  A.  Hand-book  will  be  out as 
soon  as  the  directory  can  be  ar 
ranged. 

T he  Delta. 

A  year  ago  the  Delta  lay  flat, 
sodded,  unbroken—the  dry  grass 
covered  with  a  coating  of  summer 
dust.  N ow it  presents  the  appear 
ance  <k* a thriving  little  town.  -Five 
modern  residences  with  all city  con 
veniences—water-works, 
e l e c t r ic 
lights, sewers,  street  cars  running in 
front  of  the doors—are  already oc 
cupied  and  t wo more  are  building. 
W h en  the College  authorities  platted 
the  Delta  and  offered  the  lots  for 
sale 
they  had  no  idea  what  a de 
mand  there  would  be  for  the  lots. 
Only  t wo  remain  unsold  and it is 
safe  to say they  will  soon go. 

stands 

T he  first  to build  was M r.  L o n g-
year  whose  house 
in the 
southwest  corner  of  the Delta and 
was  occupied  the  first  of  January. 
This  season  M r.  Kenney  and Prof. 
Mumford  have  built  houses  north of 
M r.  Longyear's,  facing  the east  on 
the  same  street.  At the east  end  of 
the  Delta  M r s.  Backus  has built  a 
neat  dwelling  in  which  she can  ac 
commodate  ten young  women  with 
board  and  rooms.  D r.  Marshall's 
house  is just  west  of  this,  and  west 
of  him M r. N e w m an  and  President 
Snyder  are building,  the latter  for 
Dr.  Waterman.  M r.  T o w ar  also 
expects  to  build  in  the spring  on a 
lot  near  the N o r th  Lansing  road. 

T he  Excursions. 

T he  summer  farmers'  excursions 
to  the College  were  run during the 
week  of  August  15 under  the  fol 
lowing  schedule:  Tuesday,  August 
16,  from  A nn  Arbor,  Jackson, etc.; 
Wednesday 
from  Battle  Creek, 
Pontiac,  P o rt  Huron,  and  S a g i n a w; 
Thursday  from  Bay City  and  Mount 
from  Hillsdale; 
Pleasant";  Friday 
Saturday 
from  Allegan,  Grand 
Junction,  and  W h i te  Cloud.  T he 
railroad 
reports  of  the  number  of 
tickets sold  have  not all been  received 
as  yet.  T he street  car company re 
ports  the  following  number  of  pas 

sengers  carried  one  w ay  on the 
College  line  during  the  excursions: 
Tuesday  849,  Wednesday  1044, 
Thursday,  1311, Friday  1691,  Satur 
day  688,  total  5583. 

N ew  Members  of  the  Teaching 
Force. 

T he 

reorganisation  of  the wo 
men's  department,  the resignation of 
Professor  Noble  and the  necessity 
for  additional  help  in  the  depart 
ments,  of  English,  drawing,  and 
mathematics,  because  of  increased 
attendance  at  College,  have  made 
necessary  the  election  of  six new 
members 
force. 
These  are dean  of  the women's  de 
partment,  assistant  professor  of  E n 
glish,  and  instructors  in  domestic 
economy,  mathematics, drawing, and 
calisthenics.  We give  below  a  short 
biographical 
sketch  of  each  new 
teacher. 

to  our  teaching 

•r 

M i ss  M A UD  R Y L A ND  K E L L E R, 
whose  portrait  is given  above,  takes 
charge  at the beginning  of this  year 
of  the  women's  department  as dean. 
In  addition  to the oversight  of  A b 
bott  Hall,  she will  teach  in  the E n 
glish  department.  Miss  Keller 
brings  to  this  department  scholar 
ship  of an unusually  high  order, a n d' 
valuable  experience  gained  as both a 
student  and a teacher  in some of  the 
best  schools of the East.  After  grad 
uating  at Wellesley,  she traveled ex 
tensively  in Europe  and  in  Mexico. 
Returning  to  her  alma  mater, she 
acted  as  instructor  in  English, and 
pursued  graduate  study  for  which 
she  received  the  master  degree. S he 
then  took  charge  of the English  de 
partment  of  the  Bradford  academy 
and  at the same  time  had charge of 
the  young  women's  dormitory. H er 
training  has been  such  as to especial 
ly  prepare  her for the position  which 
she  is now called  upon  to  fill, and it 
is  confidently  believed  by those  who 
know  her well  that  the future  wel 
fare  of the  department  is safe  in  her 
hands. 

T he  assistant  professorship  of  E n 
glish  and Modern  Languages,  made 
vacant  by the  resignation  of  Prof. 
Alvin  B. Noble,  has ^feeen  filled  by 
the appointment  of Miss  G E O R G I A NA 
B L U N T,  of A nn Arbor.  Miss  Blunt 
graduated  at  the  A nn Arbor  high 
school  and then  spent  five  years  in 
the  University  of  Michigan,  one 
year  of which  was devoted  to  grad-

uate  study  in advanced  English  and 
philosophy.  She  holds from  the U. 
of  M. the degrees  of  A. B. and  P h. 
M.  She  taught  for several  years in 
the  public  schools  of  Ionia,  but  re 
cently  has had  charge  of  English in 
the  Marquette,  Mich.,  high  school. 
In  the latter  position  she won  very 
nigh  commendation  as a  teacher. 

from 

M i ss  E L L EN  R.  R U S H M O RE  comes 
to  the  College  from  Plainfield,  N. 
J.,  to  take  charge  of  the  domestic 
science  department.  After  gradu 
ating 
the  Friends'  School, 
Providence,  R.  I.,  Miss  Rushmore 
spent  three  years  in Smith  College, 
where  she  made  a very  fine  record 
as  a student.  W h en 
ready  for t he 
senior  yearshe  changed  her plans and 
took  up the study  of domestic  science 
Institute,  Philadelphia. 
in  Drexel 
She  completed  the  full  course  and 
graduated  with  the highest  standing 
in her  class.  H er scholarship  and ex 
perience  are  such  as  to  lead  the 
friends  of  this  work  to  have  high 
hopes  for the  future. 

F R A NK  V.  W A R R E N, 

instructor 
in  mathematics,  came  to  the  Michi 
gan  Agricultural  College  from  his 
father's  farm  near  Marlette  in the 
fall  of  '94.  H is  excellent 
record 
here  as  an  athlete,  as a  student  in 
the  mechanical  course, and as a  man, 
together  with  his unassuming,  pleas 
ant  manner,  made  him  a  general 
favorite.  He  held  every  office his 
society  could  give;  was president of 
his  class, of  the  athletic  association 
una  of  Lhe T au  Beta  Pi  fraternity; 
won  the gold  medal  in the  inter-so 
ciety  oratorical  contest  in  the  winter 
of  ' 9 8; represented 
this  College in 
the  intercollegiate  oratorical  contest 
at  Hillsdale  last  M a y; and was  com 
mencement  orator  for  t he  mechan 
ical  course.  T he day after  his grad 
uation  last  J u ne  he  began  work  in 
Detroit  as draftsman  for t he  Penin 
sular  Engineering  company,  which 
position  he  resigned  to accept the 
position  offered  him  here.  M r. 
Warren  has had t wo years  of  expe 
rience  as  a  teacher,  and  we  have 
confidence 
this 
institution  will  be  successful.

M i ss  C A R R IE  L.  H O L T,  instruc 
tor  in drawing,  is  a  Clinton  county 
young  woman,  her  home  being  at 
D e W i t t.  S he  received  her  high 
school  training  in  St. J o h n s,  Michi 
gan  and in Chicago,  after  which she 
taught  six  years  in graded  schools. 
In  the  spring 
term  of '96 she  took 
freehand  drawing  at  this  College 
under  Professor  Holdsworth,  then 
went  to  Boston  and  completed  t wo 
years  in the  Massachusetts  Normal 
A rt  School.  During  the  fall 
term 
she  will  have  charge  of  the  sopho

ate  p* the  Michigan  Normal  Col 
lege,  will  have  charge  of the  young 
women  next  year  in  calisthenics. 
Miss  Ronan  has  made  special  prep 
aration  and it  is  believed 
that  this 
exercise  will  be  one of  the  most 
enjoyable,  as well  as  useful  features 
of  the women's  course  in  this  Col

T he  Skating  Pond* 

It  matters  little  what  we call it—-
skating  pond,  fish  pond,  lily  pond, 
the important  foct  is 
or  just  pond/ 
we  are to  have  a  pond. 
It  will  in 
time  serve  all of the above  and pos 
sibly  other  purposes,  but as we shall 
probably  first  enjoy  it as an ice  park 
we  have  chosen  to call it the skating 
pond. 

In  the hollow  north  of  the  horti 
cultural 
laboratory,  where  water 
stands  every  springs  Professor  Taft 
has  excavated  to a depth  of  three or 
four  feet  a leg-o'-mutton  shaped  area 
of  a little  more  than  a half  acre,  with 
the  narrow  part  of  the leg  extend 
ing  into  the tamarack  grove  in  the 
northeast  corner  of  the campus  and 
with  an  island  in  t he middle  of the 
In the bottom  of  the 
wide  portion. 
excavation  have  been  placed  a  num 
ber  of  frames  to  hold  soil  for lily 
roots and  other  aquatic  plants.  T he 
sources of water  supply  will  be  from 
the  tile  drain  entering  the  grounds 
from 
the northeast  and from  a  pipe 
connecting  with  the irrigating  plant. 
T h e re  will  be  t wo  terminals  to the 
pipe,  each  of  which  will 
turn  up 
ward  to  the  surface  of  t he  water 
and  form  a fountain.  Rustic  bridges 
will  connect 
the  island  with  the 
mainland  in  summer  but  will  be  re 
moved  in winter  to allow  skating all 
around  the island.  Trees  and shrubs 
on  the  shores  around  the pond  and 
on  the island  will  make  this  one  of 
the  most  attractive  corners  in our 
already  beautiful  campus. 

Weddings.

Ernest  L.  Savage  were  married

Our  Advertisers. 

We  have  secured  for the  R E C O RD 
a  large  number  of  advertisers,  com 
prising  the  most  enterprising  and 
reliable  business  and  professional 
men  in  Lansing.  These  advertis

trade, and we hope  that  both  faculty 
and  students  will  make  it  a point to 
deal  with  those  w ho advertise  in  t he 
R E C O RD  whenever  it  is  possible to 
do  so.  At  least  give  our  advertis 
ers  a  chance  to  please  you.  N ew 
students,  in  buying  their  supplies, 
and 
advice, 
should  consult  our  advertisers, and 
especially  the Directory.
