Wilson Hall Dormitory for 40 boys, erected in 1924 on the back campus beyond the old running
track--Kiski is building for the future on the small dormitory plan.
OJh:-rtfing
A word to the old boys! Y.es, old boys in truth, some
almost as old as I. Many of the.m I shall never see again.
You are now men of dignity and of family. Some are doctors
of reputati1on, some Jawyers, some prea,chers and mayors,
some men of wealth, most are just ordinary business
men. But whoever you are, old or young, rich or poor, near
or far off, we have for all the same message of greeting 1and
goodwill. No matter how bad you were ,or how dull-the
greatest nuisance or the highest honor to the school, a great
student and a great athlete, or merely an ordinary timeserver
and hall-league ball pl'ay.er--the inv􀂮tation goes out
to you, you still look good to us.
Alumni! Do you realize how the years flit by and you
fail to renew the old ties of fellowship and friendship? You
are not making friends now as you did in days when you
were young. After all the old friends are the best, so hitch
up the "Tin Lizzie" ,or the Rolls-Joyce-iit makes no difference
which-and visit the old school once more. It may
cause us trouble to r.ecognize you. Neither the gray hairs
nor the bald spots are qui<te familiar, but even tho you may
have to recall your name to us, you will in classic phrase be
three and four times welcome just the same. What a time
we did have together noitwithstanding the Iong study hours
and the steady grind in the halcyon days of boyhood. In
spite of sorme drawbacks you never have seen and you never
will see such days again. So come and bring the wife
and kiddies a1ong. It will be a pride and ,a pleasure to us
to en'tertain you in our homes, to talk over the old timesold
friends-old scenes and learn of the new and the
strange ..

Last April we is.sued a special number
known as the Kiski Alumni Bulletin,
and sent it to as many of the old boys as we could locate. Of course, our mailing list is not up-todate
but we are improving it all the time. If you did not 1,eceive a copy of that· issue, you must not take it to heart, because our desire is to send a copy to every boy who has ever attended Kiski. This year we are taking over •one issue of the Kiski News, the official school paper, and making an :c,.lumni issue.

The editor has been compell to
gather these notes at random, as very
few of the old boys have sent in

their friends. We urge you to do
this because you have no idea how
much pleasure these news items give
the old boys and the school authorities.

Deaths
William C. •Smiley.
William C. :Smiley, Esq. who died
last month, entered Kiski in the fall
of 1890-the third year of the school.
He came from Bradford along with
.Schonblom, Emery, Straight, Kennedy,
Urquhart, Phillips, McConnell
and Waugh-all living except Kennedy.
.Smiley was a bright student with
more originality than most ;f us.
"Wheô€…… he came he said the only thing
Kiski lacked was traditions-so he
proceeded to make them. Among
other memorials he left behind were
the Kiski cheer and the famous old
rhyme about "Sle·epy Slo·ppy Saltsburg-
slowest place ·On earth." He
had a beautiful tenor voice. Will became
a lawyer and his last years
were spent in Minneapolis lecturing
at the Law School, and in Univ,ersity
Extension work. During the war he
enlisted and rose to the rank of
Major. He never lost interest in the
old school .and was instrumental in
sending recently the son of one of his
lawyer friends all the way from Minneapolis.
Owen Randolph Altman
News was received on February
23rd of the death ·in Uniontown Pa
of Dr. OweIJ. R. Altman of the 'c1asô€…†
,of 1893 at Kiski, 1897 at Princeton
University and 1900 at the Jefferson
Medical School.
When Owen was here he was
known as the best pitcher in scholastic
_circles and was regarded by his
associates as the squarest fellow in
the school. At Prineeton he followe
ô€…‡ the same plan of life and had to
ilns credit, victories over Yale, Har•
vard, Pennsylvania and every college_
teani on the Princeton schedule.
Durmg his last two years he was the
best known as well as the most respected
man in the college and honors
.af all kinds came to him as the
unsought tribute of his fellows.
After graduating from Jefferson h:,
practised medicine at Masontown,
Pa., for thre2 years, then took graduate
courses at Philadelphia fitting
himself for the practise of his chosen
specialty.
In this work he was signally successful
and won wide recognition being
chosen president of the Medical
Association of Fayette County and
accorded full recognition as the leader
of his profession.
Among all classes his opinion had
great weight and influence and his
death was r·egarded as a distinct loss
to the city as well as to hundrei:ls of
individuals whose friend h:, had been.
Thirty three years have passed
since Dr. Altman left Kiski and not
one of them has gone by without
some loyal service on his part for the
school which held an abiding place
in ·his heart.
Through graduating men like Dr.
Altman Kiski becomes a contributor
to the life and character of our country.

Letters From The Old Boys
We print below extracts from some
of the letters received aftor the last
· issue of the Alumni Bulletin.
The first letter from W. C. Smiley
is self-explanatory. A notice of Mr.
Smiley's death is printed in another
column of this i.ssue. This is the last
communication rec·eived from tMr.
Smiley before he passed away. It is
w.ith a feeling of tenderness . and
sympathy that we publish it here:
April 9, 1925.
member Sweet Alice, Bent Bolt, who
wept with delight. It is something
like that.
You can tell the old crowd that
despite less hair ·on the head and more
on the face I am just as young and a
lot more foolish than in 1890. This,
I claim, is approaching limits. Doctor
Wilson will concur in that.
Yours very truly,
W. C. Smiley.

very much interested when my father

Dear Mr. Marks:
Kiski Alumni Bulletin, and I feel a desire to n turn to walk again the SALTSBURG, PENNA. --------------Cliff
Paths and to meet some of those
T,hirty-five years ago this June
when the gr aduating class left Saltsburg
it was raining. What I mean, it
wa.s raining. We got to Apollo and
watched the track wash out right under
the nose of our engine. It was
most exciting; the bank melted like
su.gar and ran off into the river.
Every few minutes the train backed
up to avoid being washed away too.
Along ai:Jout midnight we loaded ourselves
onto flat cars and by a circuitous
routie worked our way into Pittsburgh
in the cold grey dawn ,of the
morning aft,er. And all the time it
rained. Some of us never again in
our lives were so cold and wet. Others
served in France. It was much the
same.
The point I am trying to make is
that even the heaven.s wept when we
bade goodbye to Kiski, and now, after
thirty-five years, I almost weep again
on receiving the first copy of the
Alumni Bulletin. It makes me homesick.
Bnt just for that don't take
my name off the mailing list. Rewhom
I call Fri·end."
William J. Turner,
State Colleo·e, Pa.
"I want to thank you ,and congratulate
the School Authorities on the
Alumni Bulletin, before I forget it.
Keep going. I'd like a berth on one
of the Departments. It's great to
get a little new.s from the old school.
You can always count on me doing
anything I can for Kiski."
J. C. Daub.
"I !received the other clay your
April 1st is:;ue of the Alumni Bulle tin.
I would lik,e to say it was very
interesting and I ·enjoyed it very
much. Keep my name on your list.
I often think of dear old Kiski. I
,correspond with Morgan Elliott.
whom you no dornbt know is married,
and I expect him down to see me in
the ne xt thirty days. It do,2s me
good to see some of the old boys and
talk over the good old time;s we had
at Kiski. I hope to be able to get
down to p:.y you a visit soon."
