 FOREWORD 
 
 HEN a state of war was declared in April, 
 1917, the unrest prevalent throughout the 
 country manifested itself in intensified form 
 on the campus of every college for men. At 
 Davidson about eighty students were excused 
 from the completion of their spring work to help in food 
 production at their homes. 
 
 Between April 1, 1917, and September 1, 1918, one 
 hundred and fifty-eight students went into service; fifty- 
 five of these were in the two Senior classes of the period. 
 
 In the summer of 1918, at the request of the War 
 Department, four professors and thirty-three students 
 went from Davidson to the training camp at Plattsburg, 
 New York, to receive instruction which would fit them 
 for assisting in teaching military science. The change of 
 conditions in France and the resolve of the Government, 
 as shown by the passage of the man-power bill, to throw 
 the weight of America into the war at once, made it seem 
 the necessary and patriotic thing to offer the college for 
 the housing and training of one of the 550 Students’ Army 
 Training Corps. 
 
 All the men eighteen years old or over, who registered 
 on September 12, and who were physically fit and pre¬ 
 pared for college work, took the oath of allegiance and 
 became regular members of the Students’ Army Training- 
 Corps. This impressive ceremony took place south of 
 Shearer Hall, at noon of October 1. The student-soldiers, 
 numbering two hundred and twenty-three, were barracked 
 in three dormitories: Watts, Rumple, and Georgia. All 
 classes were abolished and the companies were formed 
 on the basis of age. 
 
 Scarcely had the organization been completed when the 
 prevailing epidemic of Spanish influenza reached David¬ 
 son. The south wing of Chambers dormitory was made 
 into an improvised hospital for the two hundred and fifty 
 and more victims. One death resulted from the visitation 
 and all exercises were suspended for three weeks.

 After the Armistice was signed the incentive to work 
 disappeared. The unit was demobilized on December 10, 
 1918, after about seven weeks of actual work, half of this 
 time being taken up with adjustments, physical examina¬ 
 tions, etc. The work of President Martin, of the Faculty, 
 and the officers of administration, was greatly increased 
 during the period in which the Students’ Army Training 
 Corps was in existence. Schemes of study and details of 
 discipline had to be reshaped. Classes were shifted, the 
 curriculum remodeled, and the teachers worked as indus¬ 
 triously as the men in the trenches. 
 
 As far as can he ascertained at this time 736 students 
 and alumni entered the service, not including the 223 mem¬ 
 bers of the Students’ Army Training Corps. Of this num¬ 
 ber (959) twenty made the supreme sacrifice in battle 
 or in camp hospitals, and 368 were commissioned officers.

 OUR DEAD 
 
 “These laid the world away; poured out the red 
 Sweet wine of youth; gave up the years to he 
 Of work and joy, and that unhoped serene 
 That men call age; and those who would have been 
 Their sons, they gave, their immortality. 
 
 These hearts were woven of human joys and cares, 
 Washed marvellously with sorrow, swift to mirth. 
 
 The years had given them kindness. Dawn was theiis, 
 And "sunset and the colours of the earth. 
 
 These had seen movement, and heard music; known 
 Slumber and waking; loved; gone proudly friended; 
 
 Felt the quick stir of wonder. * 
 
 All this is ended.”

MEMORIAL SERVICE 
 
 In the late afternoon of May 27, 1919, with relatives of 
 those we sought to honor, the faculty and students, trus¬ 
 tees and commencement visitors, gathered in the Presby¬ 
 terian Church at Davidson to show affection for and do 
 reverence to the twenty Davidson College Alumni who 
 had given their lives in the European War—dying in battle 
 lines or in American camps. 
 
 The service flag of their Alma Mater was draped over 
 the pulpit and a wreath of laurel encircled the gold stars 
 thereon. 
 
 Prayer and song added tenderness to the hour. 
 
 Reverend Charles Malone Richards, 1892, read the 
 names and class numerals of our beloved and heroic dead. 
 
 Reverend William Talliaferro Thompson, 1905, deliv¬ 
 ered the memorial tribute of which only a brief can be 
 obtained. Dr. Thompson began by repeating — 
 
 THE SPIRES OF OXFORD 
 
 “I saw the spires of Oxford 
 As I was passing by. 
 
 The grey spires of Oxford 
 Against a pearl-gray sky. 
 
 My heart was with the Oxford men 
 Who went abroad to die. 
 
 The years go fast in Oxford, 
 
 The golden years and gay. 
 
 The hoary colleges look down 
 On careless boys at play. 
 
 Rut when the bugles sounded war 
 They put their games away. 
 
 They left the peaceful river, 
 
 The cricket-field, the quad, 
 
 The shaven lawns of Oxford, 
 
 To seek a bloody sod— 
 
 They gave their merry youth away 
 For country and for God. 
 
Davidson College

 God rest you, happy gentlemen, 
 
 Who laid your good lives down; 
 
 Who took the khaki and the gun 
 Instead of cap and gown. 
 
 God bring you to a fairer place 
 Than even Oxford town." 
 
 This was followed by a statement of the fact that the 
 English college men meant much to Britain throughout the 
 war, and that the American college men were equally as 
 generous with their lives. Particularly was this true of 
 our college, so that there is a corner of a foreign field that 
 is forever Davidson. 
 
 These men who gave their lives we do not think of as 
 lost. 
 
 “ ’Tis man’s perdition to be safe 
 When for the truth he ought to die." 
 
 Nor do we think of them as dead. Browning desired his 
 friends to think of him as just away and more alive than 
 ever. This is the picture we have of them. Not because 
 we have accepted any cheap theology and believe that death 
 on the battlefield is the initiatory rite to heaven; but 
 because we feel that with the rearing these men had at 
 home, and the training that was theirs at college, the 
 danger they faced, the hardship and agony they experi¬ 
 enced as they served, must have led them to know the 
 Great Sufferer for mankind, even Jesus, whom to know 
 aright is life eternal. 
 
 We most assuredly do not think of their death as use¬ 
 less. Unquestionably the immediate consequence- of the 
 valor and sacrifice of the American troops was the 
 triumph of the Allies. The world turned around at 
 Chateau Thierry and the pivot on which it turned was the 
 standard of our soldiers. Our men undeniably saved the 
 day for civilization.

 But more than that, they revealed to us in America the 
 realities of life, through the strain and stress that was 
 upon us as a result of their presence in Europe linking us 
 to the war. We began to understand that things were not 
 all, that justice, truth, righteousness, mercy, God, were the 
 essentials of life. 
 
 Further than this they showed us what is in man, exhib¬ 
 iting a courage, a modesty, and an unselfishness that has 
 lifted our idea of the possibilities of the human race. “The 
 greatest gift a hero leaves the race is to have been a hero.” 
 
 Finally, they have challenged those of us who remain 
 to service hv their own efforts and sacrifice, and by their 
 manifestation of the fact that men have capacity for finer 
 things if they are but granted the chance. Mr. Wilson 
 said recently, “Once more in the providence of God, Amer¬ 
 ica is being given the opportunity to show the world that 
 she is born to serve mankind.” In the providence of God, 
 this group of men, represented by the cluster of stars that 
 death has kissed to gold, calls us to possess ourselves of 
 this opportunity to serve our fellowmen, that righteous¬ 
 ness and peace may so prevail throughout the earth that 
 even the lowest and feeblest may be free and happy. It 
 is only as we hear and follow that their death will not have 
 been in vain. They call us by their death. Can we fail 
 them who did not fail us ? 
 
 At memorial services held on Armistice Day, 1920, 
 Professor Joseph Moore McConnell, 1899, of the David¬ 
 son College Faculty, said in part: 
 
 Why did they die, those patriotic sons of Davidson? 
 Those of us here who had taught them remember with 
 what buoyant hearts and high devotion our college stu- 
 dents volunteered at their country’s call. There was no 
 shouting or tumult, no flaring of trumpets, none of the 
 pomp and circumstance of war connected with their going, 
 hut with firm resolve, they gave up their preparation for 
 life, slipped away to camp and field and began that gruel¬ 
 ling routine that was to fit them for the life and work of a

 soldier. Occasionally, during the weeks and months of 
 training, they would drop in to see us, spend a few hours 
 on the campus shaking hands with friends and then would 
 he out and gone, frequently to some port of embarkation 
 and thence over the sea to the fields of France. We 
 remember how their faces were fairly aglow as their 
 hearts burned with the desire to he in the thick of the 
 fight, to make their contribution. The fight for what? 
 The fight to overthrow despotism, misrule, injustice and 
 oppression throughout the whole wide world. No crusader 
 of the middle ages ever took the cross with a higher, 
 nobler purpose than that shown by our college boys as 
 they bade good-bye to friends and crossed the seas to 
 crush the power of military despotism, to set free the peo¬ 
 ples of all lands. Truly, the sons of the new world, nur¬ 
 tured in the home of freedom, were returning in filial love 
 to bring a votive offering of peace and liberty to the parent 
 peoples of the old world. And we do ourselves honor 
 today when we honor their memory, made precious and 
 dear to all mankind by their heroic sacrifice. 
 
 “When a deed is done for freedom, through the broad 
 earth's aching breast 
 
 Runs a thrill of joy prophetic, trembling on from East to 
 West. 
 
 And the slave where’er he cowers, feels the soul within 
 him climb 
 
 To the awful verge of manhood, as the energy sublime 
 
 Of a century bursts full-blossomed on the thorny stem of 
 time. 
 
 Through the wall of hut and palace shouts the instan¬ 
 taneous throe, 
 
 When the travail of the ages wrings earth’s systems to 
 and fro; 
 
 At the birth of each new era with a recognizing start, 
 
 Nation wildly looks at nation standing with mute lips 
 
 apart, . , .. . . 
 
 And the glad truth’s yet mightier man-child leaps 
 
 beneath the future’s heart."

 War Record 
 
 What was the result of these “deeds done for free¬ 
 dom” by our heroic dead? In truth a new era in the his¬ 
 tory of the human race has been ushered in, an era of new 
 hope to men, new rights, new ambitions, new opportuni¬ 
 ties—in fact a new world order. The shot fired at Lex¬ 
 ington has indeed been “heard around the world"— 
 Cantigny, Chateau-Thierry, Belleau-Wood, the Argonne 
 are other Lexingtons. And today throughout all lands a 
 new sense of freedom and individual rights, and a. new 
 hope of future world peace, are stirring in the hearts of 
 peoples formerly -oppressed by autocratic and militaristic 
 governments. This great boon to mankind, not yet fully 
 realized, hut in the making, is the gift to the world of the 
 40,000 or more American boys (and we are proud of the 
 Davidson men among them) who rest beneath the soil of 
 France; and also of the other thousands who succumbed 
 to disease or accident while in training camp, and who 
 sleep here in the homeland. We are grateful and happy 
 to think that they did not die in vain. Their sacrifice was, 
 as it were, an atonement for the inhumanity of the Turk, 
 the cruel injustice of the Hapsburg, the militarism of the 
 Hohenzollern, and the stupid oppression of the Romanoffs. 
 And these hoys of ours, having paid the price with their 
 lives, the peoples of the Turkish Empire are today liber¬ 
 ated from the barbarous misrule of the fanatical followers 
 of Islam, the nations of Austria and Germany, though 
 suffering for the present, have been regenerated, and the 
 Russians, for the time confused and delirious in the posses¬ 
 sion of a new and unfamiliar freedom, are groping toward 
 a new light. “Greater love hath no man than this, that 
 a man lay down his life for his friends.” Our hoys gave 
 their lives not only for their friends, nor for their country 
 alone, hut for the whole world. Through their sacrifice, 
 Asia, Africa and Europe, yea, the world, have learned the 
 lesson of American freedom.

 Land , by Lucian Lamar Knight). 
 
 Aye, worthy of the kings of old 
 Who wielded combat’s lance, 
 
 Those boys of ours whose hearts of gold. 
 
 Sleep in the dust of France. 
 
 One face among them I recall— 
 
 A mirror true to truth; 
 
 Peer of the knightliest of them all 
 Was this immortal youth. 
 
 Cradled among our Georgia pines, 
 
 None braver on the plain, 
 
 E’er graced Napoleon’s battle lines 
 Or marched with Charlemagne. 
 
 Like yonder bird of ether bold 
 Upon her mountain nest, 
 
 France, to a mother’s heart will fold 
 This eaglet on her breast. 
 
 Through burning Argonne s fiery hell, 
 
 O’er glorious St. Mihiel, 
 
 “To sound oppressions’ funeral knell, — 
 
 Was mottoed on his shield.

 Nor marvel if a prince he stood 
 Amid war’s withering flames, 
 
 He joined to Scotia's highland blood 
 One of her grand old names. 
 
 Montgomery’s castle on the heights, 
 
 His proud ancestral shrine, 
 
 Can boast among its sleeping knights, 
 None worthier of the line. 
 
 Victorious over freedom’s foes, 
 
 On fields of old renown, 
 
 His spirit, like a rocket, rose 
 To clutch a martyr’s crown. 
 
 Rest thee in peace, my gallant lad, 
 Though far from home you sleep; 
 
 God’s own pure knight, Sir Galahad, 
 Will vigil o’er thee keep. 
 
 France, too, will consecrate the ground, 
 Her changeless stars above, 
 
 And, in the air, to wrap thee ’round, 
 
 Her lillies and her love.

 SERVICE REGISTER 
 
 Beginning on the opposite page is a list of the graduates, 
 under-graduates, and former students of Davidson College 
 who served their country in the World War. 
 
 The list is probably incomplete. However, the fact that 
 during the last six months not over twenty names were 
 added makes us feel that the ground is fairly covered. No 
 omission is intentional. The * * * indicate that the infor¬ 
 mation given was received from newspapers. From the 
 names so starred and from the names followed by a blank 
 space, every effort was made to secure the needed infor¬ 
 mation. Five direct appeals were sent to each man, and 
 general requests were made through the college bulletins, 
 The Davidsonian, and the Church and daily papers. 
 
 The names followed by * died while in service, and are 
 duplicates of those given in the foregoing pages. 
 
 Thirty-five men were wounded and gassed. Two were 
 members of the Legion of Honor, nine received the Dis¬ 
 tinguished Service Cross, six were awarded the Croix de 
 Guerre, thirteen citations were given, and nine foreign 
 medals and crosses were received. The information in 
 this paragraph, compiled largely from newspapers and 
 reports, is far from complete.

 K, 118th Infantry, 30th Division. 1919 (March) U. S. A. In 
 France twelve months. Cited by General Pershing “for distinguished 
 and exceptional gallantry at Villeret, France, on September 26, 
 191S.” “During the operations near Villeret this soldier acted 
 as stretcher bearer and never hesitated during the heaviest enemy 
 shell fire and for four days and nights worked almost continuously 
 administering to the wounded. On one occasion when a comrade 
 was wounded in an advance outpost, about 250 yards in front of the 
 line, Burns volunteered to go and get him through very heavy shell 
 fire and in plain view of the enemy carried the wounded man to a 
 place of safety, saving his life.” A shell exploded so close to 
 them that Mr. Burns’ wrist watch was torn from his arm.
