TI-IE LOOKOUT 3 In memoriam Whereas, God, in I-Iis infinite wisdom, has seen fit to ren1ove frotn our number our beloved and faithful brother, Arthur Joseph Pierpont, and Whereas, Our Fraternity deeply feels the loss of a men1ber vvho comtnanded the respect and esteetn of all who knew hin1, be it hereby Resolved, That we herein express our heartfelt sytn­ pathy to the bereaved family; and be it further Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be sent to the family of the deceased, and inserted in TnE LooKOUT. Signed, G. W. ZucKE H, F. H. KEND;\LL, A. B. STEPHENSON, Con11nittee. College Shakespearean Club. \Cbe 1Looltout VOL XVIII. OCTOBER, 1912. No. 1. The future issues of THE LooKOUT may be expected about the fifteenth of each month, although this issue of THE LooKOUT is son1e­ what late. The long time before the present editors were elected to their final positions on th_e board and the fact an assistant editor and an exchange editor have not been chosen yet, n1ay account for the delinquency. The board here wishes to express its regret that Mr. vVolverson was forced through drcun1stances to resign his position as editor­ in-chief before even entering upon his new duties. He was pre­ eminently fitted for the 'vork, and it is, without doubt, a loss to THE LooKOUT that his previous experience as assistant editor should not come to fruition. Upon the students depends the standard of THE LooKOUT. The value of the n1agazine as a help to the student, as a credit to the college, is regulated by the freedom with which students contribute to its columns. Many of our graduates are asked to contribute to some paper, agricultural or otherwise, and the students of the present day will be asked in time to do likevvise. Son1etime perhaps they will tnuch desire to voice sentiments concerning political or social issues of town, city, or state. The power to expre"s themselves with lucidity, and at the same time forcibly and logically, will spell success. Such power will prove advantageous when preparing lectures to deliver before granges or other agricultural associations. Of many of then1 demands like these will be tnade before they have been alumni n1any months. vVhere or when is there a better tin1e to prepare then1- selves than right here and now? Ahnost everybody has a few leisure n1oments. Turn them to profit by \vriting for THE LooKOUT. - --------- -- THE LOOKOUT 5 vVriting for THE LooKOUT not only tneans something to the student personally but much to the college tnagazine. Only by better and better contributions can the standard of a periodical be raised. The question before the students, therefore, is how to get such con­ tributions. Do they expect the editors to tnake then1 all or do they think the n1embers of the faculty should make n1ost of them? Why not call it a faculty paper then? No, THE LOOKOUT is in the hands of the students.

  • Balkan Wars Between the Lines: Violence and Civilians in Macedonia, 1912-1918
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: BALKAN WARS BETWEEN THE LINES: VIOLENCE AND CIVILIANS IN MACEDONIA, 1912-1918 Stefan Sotiris Papaioannou, Ph.D., 2012 Directed By: Professor John R. Lampe, Department of History This dissertation challenges the widely held view that there is something morbidly distinctive about violence in the Balkans. It subjects this notion to scrutiny by examining how inhabitants of the embattled region of Macedonia endured a particularly violent set of events: the Balkan Wars of 1912-1913 and the First World War. Making use of a variety of sources including archives located in the three countries that today share the region of Macedonia, the study reveals that members of this majority-Orthodox Christian civilian population were not inclined to perpetrate wartime violence against one another. Though they often identified with rival national camps, inhabitants of Macedonia were typically willing neither to kill their neighbors nor to die over those differences. They preferred to pursue priorities they considered more important, including economic advancement, education, and security of their properties, all of which were likely to be undermined by internecine violence. National armies from Balkan countries then adjacent to geographic Macedonia (Bulgaria, Greece, and Serbia) and their associated paramilitary forces were instead the perpetrators of violence against civilians. In these violent activities they were joined by armies from Western and Central Europe during the First World War. Contrary to existing military and diplomatic histories that emphasize continuities between the Balkan Wars of 1912-1913 and the First World War, this primarily social history reveals that the nature of abuses committed against civilians changed rapidly during this six-year period.

  • Introduction: the Wars of Yesterday: the Balkan Wars and The
    The Wars of Yesterday The Balkan Wars and the Emergence of Modern Military Conflict, 1912/13 An Introduction Katrin Boeckh and Sabine Rutar The Balkan Wars of 1912/13 and their outcomes have shaped much of the military and political thinking of the Balkan elites during the last century. At the same time, these wars were intimations of what was to become the bloodiest, most violent century in Europe’s and indeed humankind’s history. Wars often lead to other wars. Yet this process of contagion happened in a particularly gruesome manner during the twentieth century. In Europe, the Balkan Wars marked the beginning of the twentieth century’s history of warfare. In the First Balkan War (October 1912–May 1913), Serbia, Monte- negro, Greece and Bulgaria declared war on the Ottoman Empire; in the Second Balkan War (June–August 1913), Bulgaria fought Serbia, Montenegro and Greece over the Ottoman territories they had each just gained. From July onwards, Serbia, Montenegro and Greece were supported by Romania, who entered the war hoping to seize the southern Dobruja from Bulgaria. These hopes were realized. Albania, declared an independent state in November 1912, was thus a product of the First Balkan War. The borders of other territories were changed and obtained features that partially remain valid up to the present: the historical region of Macedonia, a main theatre of the wars, was divided among Greece (Aegean Macedonia), Bulgaria (Pirin Macedonia) and Serbia (Vardar Macedonia, corresponding largely to today’s Republic of Macedonia, established in 1991). The Ottoman Empire’s loss of most of its European territories in the conflict was one more warning sign of its inner weakness; it ceased to exist in the aftermath of the First World War, and was succeeded by the Republic of Turkey in 1923.
