Pbilomatb~an[it~rary Soci¢ty.SEVENTEEN years ago,. thirteen young l~dies of the Bro':l~ing Societythought that by establishing a new Society, a healthy spmt of rivalrymight be developed. Accordingly Philomathean was founded.So popular has this Society become, that, starting the year with amembership of twenty-six, our number was soon increased to fifty-three.The highest praise which can be accorded "Philo" is to say that she has everexemplified her motto "Vcstigua Nulla Retrorsum" (No Retracing Footsteps).Though not so old as the other societies, we have succeeded in establishinga choice library, very helpful to us in our literary work. Besides this, the Societysubscribes to several of the best magazines, and is thus enabled to keep in touchwith up-to-date thought and fiction.This year we note a more marked improvement in the character of our programsthan ever before. It is our custom at each meeting to take up someauthor, study his life, and discuss the literary merits of his style and works.Probably the most instructive, as well as the most interesting features of our programs,are our debates. We, being nineteenth century girls, discuss all sorts ofquestions, political, economical, psychological, and even ethical, in which theSeniors overawe the other members by the fund of "hidden" resources which theyhave at command.On February 22, Irving and Philomathean held a joint anniversary, in whicha great deal of talent and ability were displayed by our membersEvery year there is an oratorical contest between the young ladies' societiesfor the troph y presented by Professor Newell in 1888, and "Philo" has been victorioussix times out of the eleven contests.The uninterrupted growth of the Society warrants us in predicting that it willsoon be on e of the most helpful factors in the development of Western MarylandCollege, and we feel justified in saying that "Philo" is training a host ofinfluential women who will go out into the world competent to bear their partin life's labors, and who will be ever ready to shed new lustre on the name of"Philomathean .', HISTORIAN.112
