N. E. Whev-lee comes thy Zeczrhing? Has thy toil O'e1' books eohsrmzed the midnight oil? Blackie is the youth of whom Oratorical ability is second nature and we hope that it may be put toward helping the Republicans in the future, His artistic nature Often gets the best of him and thus is explained -the recent study in Silver. We are all sure that next year when you call on the different Sororities in this country that L. G. Balfour will have to put up another plant. The boys will always be glad to see you.

Quiet service is the mcrrfe of true friend- ship. To Three-B is clue the honor of resurrecting the Echo from the hands of the dead. The one thing that still mystihes him is the C that he got in Eco- nomics when his average was A. Like the rest that come from Bristol his fussing ability had been sadly neglected but we are certain that he will Overcome this small fault. As a writer he is of no mean abil- ity and we are sure that in the years to come Colby College will have contributed a Horace Greeley to the newspaper world. For this reason we expect big things of you, Burton. ' NVILLIAM ERROLD BURTON CIBIHPJ Maine Central Institute, ,I2, Class Base- ball, I, 25 Baseball Squad, I, 2, 35 Iiootball Squad, I, 2, 3.

For all that, Bill has stuck it out pretty well and we are all glad to know that he is really going to graduate with us. 26

Since his arrival, Eth has wandered on through life, rather aimlessly, but here he is all dressed up. and nowhere to go. According to Etl1's philosophy, College is no place for a grind. One ought to study under compulsion only. Has peculiar ideas of matrimony, says he would marry for money. There you are, girls, and leap year on your side. A good little man at the plate either in baseball or at the table. According to rumor, he never draws away from the latter. In his own home town, Eth is the big noise. HUBERT HAZEN BARKER, ZKI' Johnnie Bridgton Academy, '12, Class Baseball, 1, 2, Echo Board, 3, ORACLE Board, 3, Student Council, 3, 'Varsity Baseball Squad, 1, 2, 3, 4, Upsilon Beta. Here is an all-around man. He can pass all his courses, keep well informed on the movies, do his part in athletics, and remove the heart and lungs of one of Dr. Chester's salamanders, 'all with neatness and dispatch. And when it comes to the women's division his roguish blue eyes and tawny hair seem to get him by all right. VVe expect to see Johnnie either a doctor or a scienltihc farmer. ARTHUR FILLMORE BICKFORD, ZWII KIBiCk7J Concord High School, '12, Class Execu- tive Committee, 2, Dramatic Club, 2, Class Treasurer, 3, Manager Dramatic Club, 3, Assistant Manager of Baseball, 3, Executive Committee Republican Club, 4, Manager of Baseball, 4, Epicureans. College work has been a great hindrance to this man's varied business interests. Besides attending classes he has to run a boarding house as well as exercise general supervision over the affairs of the Elmwood Hotel and the Central Maine Power Com- pany, to say nothing of looking after the manage- ment of the baseball team and Dramatic Club. It is beyond us how he has found time to pass enough courses to get a diploma, but still we expect to see him at the church with the rest of us, providing some important business engagement doesn't conflict with the Commencement Exercises. 25 1 l l 3 ' t Z 51 Q tl 1 Z 5 i Ei lf l it . 5 ll 'i E I i itat 2 4 l tl F3 5 5 1 DIL 0 1 l s cl lt 1 5 I 9 ' fr: ., Q1 ., , 9 a, l' 4 4 ft illfli ze if ,,,, avg . ltr at wi' .na n li are .api ti e 91

Cherryheld will certainly boom when Hleems' gets home to take charge of the lumber business. Ieems is a member of the Never XVori'y Club, and a mandolin and a pipe mean contentment. The only thing that ever troubled him was a time table, but he knows them all by heart now. He is also very fond of Bananas, ARTHUR DUGDALE CRAIG, AY Crab Attleboro High School, IQIZQ Colby Physical Society, 3, 42 President Physical Society, 4, Member Rifle Club, 3, 4, Massa- chusetts Club, I, 2, 3, 4, Debating Society, 3. No member of the class is better Htted to ease the minds of love-lorn laddies than is Craig, Wlieii not talking about bowling, he makes frequent men- tion of his having to get a letter off on the I0 train. Yes, every day. Besides setting the styles in pipes, Dug expects to teach. However, there is a rumor to the elfect that he will remain in the land of .lewelry and explain to his Attleboro friends the philosophy of bowling, the fade away ball, the van- ishing average. and other important matters pertain- ing to this game of which he has made a profound study.

The only difference between lack and Ioe Knowles is that the latter was paid by Keith for relating his experience in -the woods of this State. Not once, but many times has Jack penetrated the dense Maine woods at night and unaccompanied. VVhile engaged as a hre warden, his stunts have been many and marvellous. Perhaps the most won- derful tale hc tells deals with the capture of a bear single handed and its subsequent training so that the animal would read English Lit notes to him by the hour. Wfithout the aid of Bruno, Hack admits he certainly would have Ilunked his Lit. Expects to run a movie picture house in VVinslow and give occa- sional lectures on tires, failures and fortunes. 27 1 il 5 5?
