I-listorg. liebe- Xe OW it came to pass, in the year eighteen hundred and ninety-four, that there assembled at CUZAZQKIZSZIJ U11z'z1e11vz'!rzx, 4 which is, being interpreted, Colby University,-a multitude of youths and maidens who numbered three score and eighteen. Now the number of youths exceeded that of the maidens. But is it not written in the book of the wise ones of Colby that quality is better than quantity? And again, it came to pass that they assembled in the temple, and when the tutor lifted up his eyes and beheld them, he was sore afraid, and would have fallen had not one of the sons of Belial caught him. Now the faculty spake, and said unto them, H Thou shalt study with all thy mind and with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and thou wilt surely receive a sheepskin at the end of thy course. So the maidens hearkened unto the voice of the faculty, and plugged, saying, Our reward will come in due season, if we Hunk not. A Now one day the maidens reasoned among themselves, saying, f'What hindereth us from having a Peanut Drunk, even as our brethren at the bricksu? And it came to pass, when they had said these words, that they did even as they had said. Moreover, in the twelfth month, which is the month December, the maidens gave a feast unto their brethren, and many were hidden, but three remained in outer darkness, inasmuch as the sons of Belial had taken away their wedding garments. And the maidens grew and waxed strong in knowledge, so that the people marvelled, saying, Whereunto shall we liken this class of '98? Verily, it cannot be equalled. Now the rest of their history, and all that they did, and the mighty works that they wrought for the college, are they not written in the book of the Chronicles of the freshmen? J SI
