' 2J CCEP'l'lNG this proposition as true, the '94'Oracle Editors feel that off there is no place on earth sufhciently elevated to afford them a suita- ble resting-place. If our readers will but promise at the outset to give us full credit for our good intentions, we are perfectly agreeable that, i11 their judgment of this volume, they should eliminate all consideration of what we have actually accomplished. A Perhaps some cynical person will observe that a quotation better suited to our case is Browning's famous couplet, - . WVhat I aspired to be, And was not, comforts me. But right here we shall raise an objection, for while we are willing to enjoy all the comfort arising upon the consciousness of .high aspiration, we are in no- wise ready to admit to the public that we have failed. If such is the case, it will be speedily discovered without our emblazoning the fact in this preface. But allow us just a word of exhortation. If you want to enjoy thisbook, keep an eye out for the good there is in it. We are sure there is some here, and you can find it if you try., Moreover, when you End a good thing, don't hesitate to remind us of it. We need all the praise you can give us, to compensate for the onerous labor we have performed. r But don't get out your pocket-lenses, microscopes, field-glasses, and other critical paraphernalia, and go to seeking flaws. However, if your case is one of chronic querulousness, and your mind persists in its acerbity, even while you are reading this book, will you please bestow the curdled product of your pungency upon a bit of paper, carefully lay it away in your waste-basket, and generously dedicate it to next' year's Oracle Board. We are willing that they should profit by our example 5 but our work is done'once for all, and you will find it impossi- ble to help us, no matter how valuable may be the deliverances of your judgment.

'94g so full of achievement and success, and the promise f .V i 1 A '- f -fa' I flVXis tx of truly marvelous things. li 5 i Four years ago we were freshmen-the largest class that ever entered Colby. We were not, however, the freshest class by any means, as our predecessors could well testify. We have had our share of trials, but we have borne them nobly, and as befitted such a class. Co-ordination had its inception with us, and if anyone thinks it a success, it is because Cupid is among us. We have always done just about as we pleased, and it is needless to add that we have never stained our fair escutcheon with the slightest blot. In Athletics we won the inter-class base-ball cup as Freshmen, 'and never since has it left our possession. In rushes we never failed to hold our own, even when all the other classes were combined against us. That we excel in the class room, Santa can testify, for we pulled the best rank everptaken by a class in Mechanics. Q And so it has been all through our course. Volumes would not contain all that could be said. As we prepare to leave these loved scenes, never to return as students, we bear with us rernembrances of the happiest days of our lives, and as We pass out over the threshold of our Alma Mater, amid the plaudits. of professors and underclassmen, may these four college years prove golden links to chain together the memories of our lives. 22 Brel aalwzlaf, Class of '94, !,f-'E' MMUvx,.....--I-.--..-,..,,,H.H UM RR LADIES.

To be sure 'ix il lil Xiillixi ll Q6 the honor was thrust upon us, 'and we are not perfectly sure that it is an honor. Still, it is something to be distinct from the proletariat? Entering as one of two separate classes, among conditions which had hereto- fore done duty for but one, we were obliged to make the conditions fit the case. To attain this end they had to undergo an unmerciful stretching, andisometimes feminine '94 could hardly find room to place her foot beside her brother's broad one. That she succeeded, is due to the fact that he has always been a most courteous big brother, never crowding her unduly. We numbered sixteen on entering, but have dwindled to ten. Three out of the ten are only halves, too. We have worked and played, laughed and cried, pretty much like average college girls. ' Well, we are drawing near the close of the co-ord stage of our existence. As we leave Memorial I-lall at ff Last Chapel, the way will be lined with other co-ords, our successors. If, bv watching our preliminary skirmishes with stubborn situations, they avoid our mistakes, and improve upon our successes, we shall feel that we have neared the 4' absolute standard of co-ordinate life. i 5hailerism for common herdf' 24 .

This is partly trueg but '95 has done such marvelous work in the Freshman and Sophomore years, that the junior year has been a perfect snap. We have also taken a prominent place in athletics. No other class can com- pete with us on the football Held. We established football at Colby, and its success is largely due to the efforts of the class which gave it existence. But now, light hearted and perhaps free hearted, what care we for such slight things as recitations and professors? We are fumbffr. 'We cannot even take the trouble to bestow pity on our unfortunate classmate who committed the heinous crime of matrimony and is now paying the penalty. No l Let us enjoy the present.

D K lx But we are not going to keep still about ourselves. if .fi J lt We want to say, in a modest way, that in our Freshman year we studied Browning, and Matthew Arnold, and Biblical Literature-a thing unprecedented l ' When we entered, the Faculty deemed it wise to make some changes in our curriculum. First of all, that department which should never be omitted-cuts-was taken out of our course, and Greek and Latin substituted. fBut just here we wish to insert a card of thanks to the Weather Bureau, George Washington, and other friends, who have so kindly aided us in our time of needfl That we have been deceived and misled at times, is only a proof of our in- genuousness. Sadly do we recall that Philosophy of Style which gave no new fashions, those briefs - twenty pages long, that Dramatic Instinct which kept us two whole terms assimilating Marmion. E But vain thoughts are not ours. Deep abstractions fill our minds, scientific problems claim our attention. Now we lovingly linger in Memorial Hall for a few days, present our autographs again' to our learned friends, then go out, and free from care, gather once more under the blue and brown. Then, as the last act to mark our Sophomoric reign, we call our younger sister, and in her presence give the last clarion call, and in herhand place our emblem-still radiant with the glory of '9 6. 32 a.

HANSCOM 1-listorg f THE members of the Colby family hailed with delight the 75X advent of a lusty pair of twins, and amused the newcomers with M horns and other playthings for a time, then they had to look V, G, out for themselves. 7 W These little twins were christened '97, and it is about f I , ' Z Q the little girl '97 thatIwish to ten you. X Z Mother Colby had already brought up a large family and If knew what their training should be, so, almost as soon as they made their appearance, the twins were sent to school. Now when the family assembled for prayers, Lthe twins were not allowed to mingle with the rest, but were placed by themselves on the farthest side of the room. The little girl '97, though, nearly as large as her brother, sometimes almost pushed him out of his seat, so he had to go and sit on an old settee. The maiden got along very well, for she was obedient and studious, but when she heard that she must be matriculated, she was greatly frightened. She wondered what it meant, and if it was anything like what her sister, '96, did to her Halloween. '96 reassured her, and said that she had been through the experience, and it did not hurt. 'Thus encouraged, she went to the chapel, where a kind gentleman patted her on the head, and told her to write her name, or print it if she could not write, in a big book, and promise that she would be good as long as she went to his school. Then she wished it was like Halloween, for then '96 gave her some nice things to eat and this gentleman did n't, but he gave her a big piece of paper, with writing and printing on it, certifying that she was a good girl and might attend school there. 9 By and by Mother Colby thought 197 was studying ,too hard and needed exer- cise, so she sent her to the gymnasium. There a teacher showed her how to do 36 all sorts of wonderful things. At last she got so she could throw her clubs nearly the length of the room, swing way across the rings, if some one pushed her, and even vault over the bar when it was up real high, if there were plenty of mat- tresses underneath. I So little '97 grew to be the envy of her brothers and sisters, and the pride of her mother's heart. When her first term at school was through, and she brought home her Hrst Reward of Merit, Mother Colby patted her on the head and told her friends that undoubtedly her youngest was going to be the smartest in the family. Whether this will prove true or not We cannot tell, but certainly her future is promising, for one of her teachers has said, H She is a very homely little girl, but she does study her book well l I Q f :fri-iff Vlibt 5 I.

For instantly there comes up to the memory of alumnus and upper-classman alike, distinct visions of revels and episodes of the past. Perhaps he remembers how he used to borrow the contents of the self-replenishing oil tank. He sees in memory the reading room thronged with a crowd eager to reach some aged barrel fresh from the quiet recesses of the Winslow cider mill. He perceives, in recollection, an atmosphere dim and hazy with nicotine vapors, and a floor deftly strewn with bits of paper, worn out peanut shells, and the like. Such was the reading room of the past, hallowed by the impressive rites of the Ah. Skyward Society and the mystic strains of Phi Chi, whose sweet spirit is now at rest. But let us turn the page and behold the reading room of to-day. A bit of history. In the early part of the present college year, it became the general opinion of students and faculty that the reading room of the future must be a reading room in fact, as well as in name. A reform movement was agitated, and heartily supported by all. Officers were chosen, funds were subscribed, work was begun in earnestg and the result is the improved reading room of the present, one of the most important innovations of the year. As you step into the room, pleasantly tinted walls meet the eye. W7zo!e papers adorn the racks. You notice, too, that ,the list on file has been improved and enlarged. Long tables loaded with the best illustrated weeklies and monthlies invite you, While the most notable feature of all is the many comfortable chairs scattered here and there. The whole room is well lighted by electricity, and the oil tank is no longer a disturbing element in the oil market. Such is the reading room of the present. It might be better, for the ideal has by no means been reached, but notable progress has been made, and the reading room of to-day plays an important part in our college lifel W. L.

T K 5 1a f-L-1: OR the last two or three years the conviction has been gradually forcing itself upon the minds of undergraduates and alumni, that athletic work at Colby is on the decline. It is not the purpose of this article to engage in a discussion of the causes leading up to this condition, but simply to describe the effort which has been made, the past winter, to revive interest in this branch of college work. Since 1889 Colby has given no public Athletic Exhibition, although it has been the fond hope and pet scheme of the Gymnasium Instructor each year. As to the causes, there is a diversity of opinion, but the chief reason seems to have been a gradual death of athletic spirit among the boys. This year, as usual, Prof. Currie began, at the opening of the winter term, to talk and work for an exhibi- tion, and, as usual, little heed was paid to his exhortations. At length, however, his earnestness and enthusiasm enlisted the interest of the upper-classmen. After considering the matter, it seemed that if an athletic exhibition could be worked up, it might carry with it enthusiasm enough to revive athletic spirit along other lines. Accordingly the matter was laid before the Athletic Association, and it was voted to assume the responsibility for an exhibition to be given toward the close of the term. 1. L. Pepper, '89, was secured as trainer for the bar-men and tumblers, with good results. Considerable enthusiasm was aroused among the boys at large, and during the time that Mr. Pepper was with us, a number of new athletes were developed, while the old ones showed rapid improvement. Some new tricks were learned, the old ones were perfected, and the whole systematized. At the end of two weeks and a half, the opening of the Pwrunswick Medical School deprived us of the services of Mr, Pepper, although he continued to come up twice a week, to criticise and suggest, until the time of the exhibition. The exhibition itself, which was given in the City Hall, March 6, was on the whole successful, though a failure from a financial standpoint. Although well advertised, the attendance was much smaller than might have been expected, and . S7 . in consequence the Association failed to cover expenses. The performance went off' with scarcely a hitch from start to hnish, remarkably well in view of the fact that most of the men were passing through a new experience. The competitive class drills were decided in favor of the class of '97, which presented a dumb-bell drill. One of the features of the exhibition was the club swinging, by Whitman, '94, and Padelford, '96. Their exhibition of torch-.club swinging was the first of the kind in this part of the country, and was very hnely executed. Another feature was the performance of Mr. Ed Brown, of Bath, in his trapeze act. Mr. Brown is an expert in mid-air acrobatics, and his work on the trapeze called forth considerable applause from the audience. The pyramids, with which the exhibi- tion closed, went off very smoothly, and much credit is due to the leader, Clark, '94, for the success with which this part of the programme was carried out. A dance at the close of the exhibition hnished the evening very enjoyably. On the whole, the outlook for another year is very encouraging. ' Much good material exists in the college, which will, at the beginning of another year, be in better shape to work up an exhibition. Much valuable experience has been gained, and an enthusiasm remains which should ensure, for another year, an exhibition which will be as much better than that of this year, as that was better than none. In closing, we would express our heartiest thanks to Mr. Charles Wheeler for so kindly assisting us in the tumbling, and also to Prof Currie, whose untiring enthusiasm and devotion contributed in no small measure to the success of the exhibition.

HE '94 Quartette ! To four of us, at least, these words bear a world of meaning. What a host of pleasant memories is associated with them. They speak of happy college days, so fair and yet so fleeting, of friendships dear and gay companions, of charming acquaintances, and of jest and jollity unstinted. Many other quartettes have existed, but none quite like the Colby '94 Quartette. It was a red-letter day in the history of the college, and one of auspicious omen for the musical public, which marked the advent of the class of '9l, for besides displaying other marked accomplishments, it was musically inclined. In this line '94 early began to attract more than ordinary atten- tion, so that, when it became heralded abroad that the Freshmen had organized a class quartette, the news was not in the least astounding, but was received as a matter of course. That the musical nature of the class should attempt to realize itself in some such form, was to be expected, and so we find the '94 Quartette in the first stages of its evolution. No quartette, perhaps, ever had so remarkable a persamzel. The short, the tall, the fat, the lean are here represented. Its end men, besides being extremes in position and in' vocal range, are extremes in personality. They possess only two characteristics in common,-both have exceedingly refzsz'z'z'z1e voices, and both are very jiuerzz' !z'7zguz'.vz'r. The middle men are extremes in height, and are usually more taciturn than the voluble ends. Great diversity of sentiment has al- ways prevailed, each member has an opinion on every matter, and is perfectly free to express it. Exceeding frankness is another general characteristic of the Quartette which serves to show its members their weak points. Each has many times viewed his true image in the mirror of criticism, and nearly all have some weaknesses. Profoundly impressed with what he seemed to know about music, we u1za1zz'm0zm-Q1 elected the corpulent tenor to the responsible position of leader, and we never have had occasion to regret our choice thus made. , 109 Once organized, the progress of the Quartette was swift and sure, being materially hastened by our leader's long musical experience with a country band. Our first rehearsals were held in the college .dormitoriesg and during these performances the Quartette would be roundly anathematized by those studiously bent.' But with minds wilfully oblivious of all invective, doubtless well merited, and with hearts equally impervious to piteous pleadings for cessation, the singers would continue to let their sweet voices be heard upon the air. Only good results could be the outcome of such assiduous practice, and, in the minds of the Quartette at least, a high degree of musical excellence was quickly attained. At last, when that degree of pronciency was arrived at that a selection could be completed only two tones flat, and the First Tenor could remember a few of the words, we began to frame the bold project of giving public concerts. A church sociable was the scene of our maiden attempt, on which occasion we performed our part with credit to ourselves, gaining the gracious applause of our indulgent auclience,twhich, in the belief of the writer, was the only thing we gained. The future success of the Quartette was now fully assured. It had actually secured an opportunity to sing before the public, had made its rifbzzf without breaking down, and its incipient fame began to be heralded throughout the college town. Lauda- tion greeted us on all sides, and our leader's pomposity began to develop. After we had thus amply demonstrated the fact that we could sing, our services were in great demand, and in many a local entertainment did the Quartette participate. Nor was our fame coniined to our college town. As, when a stone is thrown into the water, the wavelets recede in undulating circles from the centre, so the circle of our renown set in motion by a Baptist sociable, spread far and wide. Neigh- boring towns heard of our vocal ability, engagements resulted, and ere long we were giving entertainments in remote sections of the State. We were everywhere kindly received Qbefore the concertj. K In the midst of such success we could not forget that, while we were a quartette, we were a class quartette. Hence every call made upon us by our class met with loyal response, and at reception or banquet our strains of rippling melody oft were heard, and '94 gloried in her quartette. So passed our Fresh- man year. The summer vacation necessitated a temporary disbandment, but the opening term of our Sophomore year brought us together once more with the determination to outdo, in the year that lay before us, all our former efforts in the musical line. We were no longer a Freshman quartette. As Sophomores, larger fields and new conquests awaited us. 110 We applied ourselves to practice with renewed zest, and soon had a full and varied 1'Eperz'0z're. Thus equipped, we sallied forth prepared to furnish miisic of all kinds, Nfunerfejal music a specialty. The fiat had gone forth, and the Glee Club which, during the past year, had existed in an embryonic state, and of which the '94 Quartette was the nucleus, was to take an extended tour through- out the State. A programme was drawn up, and the Quartette, its merit duly recognized, was assigned a selection. Right well did we sustain the conndence placed in us, and night after night the soothing strains of A Father's Lul- laby ' calmed many a troubled heart. The trip was a grand success every way but financially, and the Quartette won fresh laurels. Thus the months glided by and the Commencement season was at hand, during which we reaped a rich harvest. The pleasing recollections of our experience at Houlton and Foxcroft are still fresh within our minds. The close of another college year brought a suspension of our labors. During the junior year the Colby Quintette was formed, and flaming pos- ters dotted the landscape announcing ff Grand Concerts ! and cautioning the public not to fail hearing Prof. Kleinhans, the Whistler, and I. Colby Bassett, Banjo-soloist. All our concerts given during the season of '93 were of a high order, thus ably assisted by the above-mentioned celebrities. In the winter jake left us to assume the duties of a pedagogue and Parme substituted, performing his part in a highly efficient manner. The year was marked by many strange exploits, the Glee Club's tour 'f down East being very prolific of adventure. Our junior year passed all too soon, and the curtain rose on the final act in the college drama. 4 The Glee Club has not been reorganized since its disbandment, and the Quartette is now left sole musical factor, of true wie, of the college. Thus far the year has been fraught with more than ordinary success and pleasure. The faithful practice of four years is beginning to bear fruit, and the Quartette is shedding its mantle of amateurism for one of professionalism. Our work shows more finish, and our voices, they tell us, blend Iinely. Without doubt, could we remain together, the Quartette in a few short years would establish for itself a world-wide reputation, but all earthly things have an end, and in a few short-weeks the Colby 794 Quartette will have ceased to exist as an active musical organization, and its deeds will have passed into history, fur- nishing traditions for future college generations. With genuine sadness do we contemplate the separation which soon must take place. For four years we have 111 been almost inseparable partners in prosperity and adversity. We have been ac- tive in the 'interests of church and lschoolg we have raised our voices in the house of festivity and the house of mourning, in the concert hall and about the banquet table.

In this world of many changes it is quite unusual for a person to remain in one official position for a period of thirty-ive years, and especially so, when the position is a trying and responsible one. There is no severer test of what is in a person than ibiza. A superficial nature may endure for a season, but many years draw upon the riejfihr of a man. Prof. Foster has triumphantly stood the test of long service. The recent successes of Colby University are popularly traced to the large financial endowments which the College has been fortunate enough to receive from noble benefactors. And such endowments have indeed been the immediate occasion of the great progress realized in these latter decades, but not all, even of the friends of the College, duly remember that Colbyfs chief endowments have been men and not money. It istthrough her earlier professors, their devoted piety, robust endurance and conspicuous ability, that the institution survived at all, and at length, after the -long, patient, heroic struggle, was endowed with gen- erous means. It is really these men who had stuff enough in them to weather the long gale of adversity that brought the money in later years. They proved to sagacious men of Wealth that there was something here to endow. From the standpoint of future years it will be seen, if it is not already perceived, that .on the whole the survival and the fame of our beloved Alma Mater are pivoted, not so much upon money endowments, as upon such men as james Tift Champlin, Samuel King Smith, Charles Edward Hamlin, john Barton Foster, Moses Lyford, and others of their mould. And as the older graduates, residing in all parts of this country, have learned of the retirement, one after another, of these veterans of the Faculty, until now the last one has gone, we find a mingling of gratitude and regret in our hearts. We rejoice in the brilliant successors that have been found for them, but this does not hinder the sadness we feel that iizey are gone. With each such change the College is other than it used to be to us. We feel some- thing as the country has done -indeed, as the soldiers of the Grand Army have, i 115 as the heroes of our Civil War-Grant and Logan and Garfield and Sherman, have been removed, one after another, from the land they have helped to save. They were no longer really necessary to our existence, as they have been, but we hate to spare them from the large places they have occupied in the Union and in our' hearts. So, it is with reluctance that we see our veteran professors yielding the chairs they have so long occupied and so long honored. Prof. Foster's resignation ofthe chair of Greek at last Commencement occasions a renewal of the regret felt in previous years as others of the old Faculty have in turn retired from their respective chairs. But our natural regret at these changes is not our theme, We, the older graduates, increasingly feel the debt of gratitude which we owe to these men who have so ably served us and the University of which we have occasion to be proud. This brief notice of the life and work of our reverend teacher of the ancient languages is expressive of our desire to recognize his great service and to do him honor for the same. We are not attempting to estimate what has been accomplished by this useful life, which happily for us is not yet ended, but only to put forth such reflections as his pupils and friends naturally cherish on the event of his ceasing his active connection with the College as Professor of Greek. john Barton Foster was appropriately born in the Athens of America, early in 1822. At the age of six or seven years he came from Boston to Waterville, where he has spent nearly the whole of his life. He received his early education in the public schools of the town and in Waterville Academy. I-Ie was one of the first pupils in this latter institution, which was opened in 1829 with the late Hon. Henry W. Paine, of Boston, as Principal. Between the years of 1836 and 1838 he had a taste of the practical by working at a mechanical trade. In 1838 he began to prepare for College in the local Academy, then under the tuition of Principal N. G. Rogers. In August, 1839, he was admitted to Waterville College, and was graduated in 1843 in the same class as the late Prof. Moses Lyford. For the two years succeeding his graduation he was engaged in teaching in the academies of China, Maine, and Lexington, Mass. A sense of duty pressed him, in 1846, to resign his position at Lexington and enter at once upon the work of the Christian ministry, to which he had devoted his life. The Baptist Church, of Gardiner, claimed his first services as minister of the Word. Unhappily for all concerned the young pa,stor's health failed, and he was compelled to resign his work in April, 1847. He sufficiently regained his health, however, after a few months' respite, to enter Newton Theological Institution in the autumn of 1847. Before his graduation, in Aug'ust of 1850, he was called to take the editorial ' 116 charge of the Ziazzlt Afizforafe. He continued at this important post of service with much credit to himself for eight years, when in September, 1858, he was called to Waterville College to -'assume the duties of the chair of Greek and Latin, vacated by the accession of Dr. J. T. Champlin to the Presidency of the College. This position he held until 1873, when the department was divided, and from that year he occupied the chair of the Greek language to the time of his resignation, in 1893. Q As incidental to his college duties, the main work of his life, Prof. Foster has done valuable service for the educational and religious interests of the com- munity in which he has lived, and of the State at large. As teacher of an adult Bible class for more than thirty years-as member of a standing committee of the church for about the same length of time-as treasurer of the church for several years-as supervisor of the public schools in Waterville-as occasional preacher in the various pulpits of the State-and especially as treasurer of the Baptist State Convention for thirty years, he has accomplished an amount of good that is not easily measured and should not be forgotten because it has been subordinate to his great life work. The service done the State Convention is noteworthy for unfaltering Hdelity and efficiency, and the Convention on accept- ing his resignation as treasurer, last year, very appropriately puts on record that he ft has ever been an able and faithful custodian of his great trust. His self- sacrificing labors have easily made him one of the conspicuous benefactors of this missionary body, and have placed the denomination under great and abiding obligations to him for his untiring zeal and ceaseless vigilance in the discharge of his arduous duties. His accounts have been models of neatness and accuracy, and he has enjoyed the unshaken conndence of all those who have been intimately associated with him in the work of this organization. The last sentence of this minute recalls to the mind of the writer the enthusiastic appre- ciation, often privately expressed, of the reverend former Secretary of the Con- vention, the Rev. Dr. Ricker, of Prof. Foster as an officer who firmly guarded the resources of the Treasury and wisely cherished its efficiency. In looking back to college days, we, his pupils, remember Professor Foster as a man of large mental integrity, of broad and balanced conceptions, and of thorough culture. Before coming to his Professorship he had had the advantage of a varied experience-as a student, a teacher, a preacher and a journalist, and all through his life he remained in Contact with the practical matters of busi- ness and of life generally. These varied elements of culture and experience formed the basis for his well-rounded character. There were no gaps in his 117 ' thinking-no soft spots in his make up. His learning seemed faultless. SOZz'dz'zj' and graqe were the great factors of the man. In him were mingled the prose of, the soundest common sense and the poetry of transcendent thought. He had the modest sobriety of his adopted State and the elegance of his native Boston. Without doubt the long study of the Greek language developed the innate polish of his mind. He drank continually at the Pierian spring. His lips were ever wet with Castalian dews. He wore the robes of classic learning with a native ease and dignity. He carried a delightfully cool brain over a warm heart. An air of scholarly leisure characterized his hardest work. No confusion ever entered his brain nor communicated itself to other minds. Nineteenth Century hurry never lost him his splendid mental poise, nor tangled the precise thinking of his orderly brain. The extent of his mental furnishing and acquirements was remarkable. He was not merely a Greek scholar, but was acquainted with a wide range of learning and literature that was at all times at hand for use. He could quote cm' Zz'bz'z'um ef Zz'z'emz'z'm from Latin, Greek and English authors, and to fit any thought or occasion. His memory never seemed to yield what was once in his possession. Prof. Foster ought to have been famous-he would have been, but for the limitation of physical infirmity- he is famozzs, so to speak, to all who know him. In the class room Dr. Foster was uniformly polite in his address to students. No snarling words ever came from the chair of Greek. The polishof our Professoris mind and the kindly grace of his heart controlled his manners. While communicative and measurably familiar, he never lowered himself to en- gage in any undignified discussions. He possessed a rare ability to regulate the decorum of his classes. Only avery few were obtuse enough ever to presume upon his genial bearing and the general freedom of his class room. It was far more easy in his presence to be gentlemanly than ungentlemanly. But if one was perverse enough to be boorish or disrespectful, he was sure to meet with an unpleasant fate. No storm cloud of wrath ever arose in that room, but a certain noiseless lightning glimmered-certain flashes of wit and sarcasm played about the offender which effectually discouraged any further experiments in that line. Prof. Fosterls method of defending himself and maintaining his dignity before his classes, in the rare cases when it was necessary, was unique. We have never seen the like. He had learned the rare art of wielding satire-that dangerous weapon-with safety and effectiveness. He could administer the aforesaid in doses just suited to individual cases, and at the instant needed. Few cared to run against the oily edge of his wit more than once or twice. His power in this 118 ' respect, as well as in others, put him at ease in matters of class-room discipline. He never feared being imposed upon. He was never solicitous about his stand- ing with his classes. They were compelled to respect him. And this is saying a great deal. College boys are proverbially sharp in detecting and making a target of the faults and intirmities of their teachers. They recognize no obligation to be charitable in this regard. He is a rare man who can command the respect of one college class, to say nothing of thirty-five classes. . In conducting examinations upon the text of the various works studied by the department, Prof. Foster was kind, stimulating and thorough. He keenly appre- ciated faithful, energetic students, and put manifest sympathy into his correc- tions and comments on their recitations. He was never nervous or irritable, but genial and cheery. If the apprehension of the pupil was too soporihc, he carried a spur whose application generally produced the desired awakening effect. But with native slowness he was kindly patient. To a stranger he might not seem enthusiastic. But he was. His own broad understanding of the works studied, his keen relish of the thoughts expressed, and of the 1fzz'mzfz'ae of linguistic excellence therein were never in doubt. He rolled the gems of the Greek and Latin languages as a sweet morsel over his tongue. His enthusiasm for the beauties of ancient thought was contagious. Through him, better than in the-books before us, could we seem to feel the meaning of their authors. Some- times, as we would struggle with those long classic sentences, with subject, predi- cate, modiners and connectives scattered like zizykcta meffzbm through several square inches of printed space, without any very dennite result, he would quietly come to our rescue and 'comfort us with the much-needed assurance that the wffifef' ziia' realy mmaz 50l7Z6Z'hZ'7Zg by what he wrote-that there 'was sense in the passage if we only knew how to find it, and so the Professor's faith was to us the evidence of things fzaz' seen. Beyond dealing with the text as such, he had line aptitude in leading his pupils into the deeper Waters of thought that lay around the immediate point in hand, and great would have been their benefit if they could have gotten leisure from the technicalities of the language to follow him. Principles, civil, moral, and philosophical, were often traced from their ancient sources to their place in our present civilization. Niceties of speech were pointed out and emphasized -laws of language, running through all tongues, were attended to-until this class room became no mean annex to the department of Rhetoric. An exquisite imagination in the teacher adorned the dry-looking pages of Latin and Greek that came before the pupils, and made them glow with poetic beauty. A delicious humor ' ' 119 . often brought out to sight the quaint and ludicrous cast of the passage studied. The Professor, moreover, had an unusual sense of melody. He was really a born musician, and though not claiming a technical knowledge of the art, was a close and intelligent critic of the same. The music in his nature came out in his trans- lations and accompanying comments thereon. Since graduation the writer has not infrequently visited his recitation room simply to listen to the mzzrir of his talk. This point is not insignificant. No writer or speaker can afford to neglect melody of style, and' less and less as time passes. Excellence of thought demands musical expression. The Hnal speech of mankind in heaven will be song. As the world approaches perfection its utterances should be more songful. The space allotted will allow us to speak but this once more of Prof. Foster as a Christian teacher and friend. He was no mean theologian. He had a theo- logical as well as a logical mind. His early training in a thorough school of Sacred Learning, gave him a relish and preparation for the study of theological questions. Many of us have happy recollections of his instructions to an adult Bible class in the Sunday School of the Baptist church of Waterville. Being thoroughly at home in the original or the New Testament, he was wont to grasp and handle its great truths with ease and address. His natural poise and temper- ateness of mind made him a choice religious guide. No fanatical interpretation of Scripture could pass muster with him, however popular it might be at the time. He gave his pupils grand seed thoughts, which have stood the siftings of subse- quent years. Before the results of the Higher Criticism were much known he anticipated some of its best utterances. His mind naturally went towards the pith of truthg Errancy and digression and vacillation were foreign to his mental constitution. As a personal friend to his pupils, Prof. Foster was one of the wisest and best. He was not a man to pat on the shoulder, but he was a man to trust implicitly. His sagacity was unerring, his faithfulness unceasing. He excelled as a religious adviser, for he had carefully traversed the various experiences of the human heart, and readily divined the cautions and incitements that each one needed. In the practical matters of life he was equally at home, and gave with line discrimination the appropriate word of -counsel. 'O In general, our teacher was a man of broad, intelligent sympathies, patriotic, philanthropic, devout, the friend of all, the enemy of none. No one had a higher sense of honor than he. He detested with a perfect delestation every mean, dishonorable thing. His soul gloried in everything lovely and lofty. The dews of a rare domestic bliss have long rested upon him, and lent an inspiration 120 to the Hne capacities of his nature. No one can measure the results of his work upon the thirty-five classes that have come under his instruction and personal influence, and upon vastly greater numbers through them. Prof. Foster's life has been a triumph. He is entitled to boast as one that putteth the harness off. He, has endured 'fas seeing him who is invisible. Length of service has not wearied him, but rather called forth his reserved power. On the best of testimony it may be asserted that the department of Greek has realized a Crescendo of excellence up to the very end. This proves the extreme of merit. Many grateful hearts rejoice in what Prof. Foster has been able to accomplish and will wish for his life a long and golden sunset.

B., has returned to his 'rural home, and proceeds to enlighten his astonished parents in the sciences. ABRAHAM.-In psychological materialism, a form of monism, Lucretius ap- pears as advocate. Hobbes, Vogt, Moleschott, and Biichner appear as later expounders of sensualism. Mind in its faculties, Intellect, Sensibility and Will, is merely the consequence of a mode of material organization.

Grand names there are carven below him, Of men who in guarding a queen Gave all. In the city of Paris Their blood on the pavement was seen. VVe have in our Hall of Remembrance A lion like that of Lucernegh Grand names there are carven below him, Of those who will never return. For more than a queen or a kingdom '- They gave up their lives inxthe fight, And even for more than their honor, These soldiers who died for the right. They died that the wrong might not conquer, Their names that are carven in stone VVere written in blood on the greensward, And they did not perish alone. The lion in tierceness and anguish Is dying with low-lying head, And right shall have other strong weaponsg The lion of war shall be dead. F. E. D g Reilecttioris.. 7 a T llllllll X T is n't always an 'easy matter-to collect ideas, even when you have them. A Sorne-men never have them. Curious fact, ever think of it? Some don't, and they 're mostly the men without ideas. Then, too, there are men who have ideas, and never can get near enough to them to put salt on their tails, and never catch them. They are the men who like to tell you last week's news. There was a man once had an idea he could n't catch-but I won't expose him here. He went to college, and was always asking the professors to please repeat the last sentence. They hated him. --was trying to collect ideas for a recitation in Psychology. He had thirty pages of abstract reasoning from which to collect the most ideas possible in thirty minutes. Ever notice how much better work a man does in the last thirty minutes? He'll sit round and read one line in Eve minutes,-talk -girl and athletics, or the last dance, or the next reception, or the state of the universe in general, and the country in particular for the first hour-and-a-halh and then be surprised to find that he has yet to capture his ideas. Most men are built just that way, it's in them, and they can't or don't get it out. A man tried it once and he became a dig. He took an X every term, and exiled himself from society. When he got through he went off and hung himself. -had harvested an idea or two in as many pages, when there was a rap on the door, it opened, and in came a man who wanted to know where the next day's lesson in history began. Some men always depend on their friends for ears in class. They never know when a lesson is given out. It 's good training, though, for the men with ears. Perhaps that 's why the other fellows 'don't listen. The history lesson disposed of, courtesy demands that the visit be not too abruptly broken off. Then, too, the universe would go to the dogs if the weather did not come in for discussion on every available occasion. Exit history man with five minutes of the thirty.-1 tore his hair, muttered something about - deaf hitch- ing post, and settled down for another wild struggle with abstractions. Five minutes is the duration of this spasm, interrupted by the blasts of a cornet trying, vainly, to rival the united howlings of a menagerie of wild beasts. If you ever lived near a man with a cornet you know- 's feelings. A more or - 129 less lurid, sulphurous struggle, and the patient is quieted for the present. Sulphur, and brimstone are the best opiates in .such a case. Fifteen minutes gone, and-returns to the task with peace of mind gone, hair on end, and an expression of long-suffering determination on his countenance. But there's no rest this side the grave. Five minutes more of undisturbed application is ended by the unannounced and somewhat violent entrance of a couple of men who have a Greek lesson to recite the next hour. Communism is a splendid ideal. Do you know, I believe college life in domitories comes nearest the communistic state of any institution I know. Why, everything is common, your room, your wood, your coal, your oil, your neckties, sometimes even your shirts. I bought ive gallons of oil one Saturday-but that's another story. I borrowed after that. Perhaps you 've noticed that a man can always do better in a language class, if he reads over the lesson aloud with a friend some time during the last ten minutes. The more hurriedly done the better. 'I'hat's what these fellows did. Three minutes to bell-time. Queer what a difference there is in minds. Some men can take in Greek roots with their ears, and Psychological abstractions with their eyes, and never once get them mixed. 1 could n't. There's a limit to most men's patience. i rose, and was just removing his coat, when the bell rang. Sadly and' in silence -put on his coat again and took his way to recitation.

As I lay lulled into sweet re- . I 033i'WiL ff- '2 pose by the refreshing breezes gently V HJ wafted from the .boundless Southern - M 'A' Ocean, I had a most beautiful vision. '-7.-N iff I J! 63 . . . . . ' Ja, ,Z A L f My unchained imagination, enchanted by , H' A the brilliant stellar expanse of a cloud- - 1, if I less' Arabian sky, flew far, far away toward the Western World, passing the Pillars of Hercules, over which the tide of Arabian culture had rolled on to meet with cold rebulf. Then, gliding on and on over the watery waste, I came to a great and prosperous country in the eastern part of which, far toward the land of Boreas, a noble river flows gently to the sea. Up this stream I wended my way to a fair country where once peacefully dwelt the dusky tribes of the Ticonics. HereI saw such a sight as oriental eyes scarcely ever beheld, for I gazed upon a great course of four stages, ever thronged with youths and maidens. Gates guarded its entrance,where those who could not- give a good account of their journey thither were not allowed to enter. Those who entered, however, were first called Fresher, and, having threaded the by-ways and shunned the frequent quagmires called F!zmks, they came at length, wearied and foot-sore, to a blzgf- like wall, which those who had trained themselves easily scaled. But those who had been indifferent, could'get no foothold and fell rolling and tumbling to the foot of the cliff. Those, also, who made little rffibs and tried to cast up ropes to haul themselves over the wall, fell with a mighty crash, while those who tried to scale it with their prancing rfeeds were thrown from their horses and fearfully mangled. I 134 After the youths and maidens had passed three of these tangled paths, and scaled three of these walls, and gathered what- they could of that peculiar fruit called Xb, they became Sopfzomorw. Then, after a time of sweet rest ina pleasant grove, they again continued their journey along the winding paths of knowledge, shunning half hidden stumbling blocks and tolling up the steep ascents of their path. The walls, also, they scaled as in their former pathg but on the whole fewer were turned back to travel the way anew. Next they proceeded on through the pleasant dales and over the sunlit hills ofthe land of the jZl7ZZi07'E5 and Sembres, spurning that gorgeous but worthless phantom called Zi?fmk, jumping numerous half concealed dark Zines that were stretched across their path, and scaling skil- fully and gracefully the walls that barred their progress. Beyond the twelfth and last wall was the goal of their striving, and after they had scaled this wall, I beheld them resting in a lovely grove Called the 'fGr02fe Q' Graf!ua!z'o1z, where they were eagerly gathering Diiblomzzr, Degrees, Hofzors, and the like, for which they had worked so well through the four long stages of their toiling up the ascents and threading the labyrinths of the intricate pathway called -1. The dream-like mists of fancy vanish in thin airg the golden chains of senti- ment are rudely relaxed, and my eyes open to disclose the deft fingers of Dawn painting the eastern horizon, the hazy outlines of my caravan train, the burning sands of our own Arabia of the east.

' From the depths of a gently-swaying hammock, hung on the southern piazza of his palace, love arose, yawned, and throwing away his half-smoked cigarette, said to the slave who had been keeping the mosquitoes away from his master with a tennis racquet: Call Mercury, and tell him to bring his pneumatic sulky. Mercury soon appeared - though not in a very amiable state of mind, for he had been interrupted in the midst of a ilirtation with the chief dish-washer of the inner court. To him love said: I want you, kid, to tell the gods that my wife is visiting her mother, and I am going to have a little blow out. Tell them to come up to thezrear entrance, and to be very quiet, as I don't want luno's maids to get on to the affair. Do you tumble ? Verily, I do, said Mercury. ' Well, get a wiggle on, and tell Orpheus to bring along his lyre, for we shall want some music. The faithful messenger vanished to do the royal bidding, and love settled back in his hammock to .smoke another cigarette and await developments. The time for the feast arrived, and the guests were all in their places. Bacchus was chosen toast-master, and when the more' substantial viands had been disposed of, a huge cask of Milwaukee nectar was rolled in and placed on tap. love pressed an electric button with his foot, and once .more Mercury appeared in answer to his summons. Merc, my boy, said. love, ffhie thee quickly to 'the region of the north star, and bring me the big dipper for a punch bowl, and you may as well bring along the little one for a ladle. Again the messenger was gone, andxwhile they waited, Orpheus tuned his harp, and the companyjoined inthe refrain, I-Iere's a health to jovial love, drink it down. This was followed by several copious libations and a brace of stories by differ- ent ones concerning their amours, love every now and then interrupting to warn Bacchus to keep the ,glasses filled. I 131 The fun waxed fast and furious, and a song being called for, Orpheus was about to let himself loose in that old, familiar melody, It,won't be a stylish marriage, for I can't afford a carriagef' when the door of -the banquet hall opened with a crash, and Juno plunged into the room like an old war horse, with hair dishevellecl, and a bed post in hand. love, who was opposite the entrance, immediately caught the unmistakable gleam of his spouse's eye, and at once concluded he was Wanted elsewhere. With a hoarse cry of: All-down-b'nine-se'em-up' gin, he made a wild plunge or the nectar cask, and disappeared within its murky depths. Juno, seeing 'that the object of her wrath had escaped, vented her anger upon the guests. Having driven them all out with the aid of her pet monster, the hundred-eyed Argus, she retired to wait for her delinquent spouse. When all was once more quiet, 'love emerged from his liquid retreat, dripping as to his flowing locks and silken beard. Not daring to brave the junonian wrath that night, he stealthily turned down the gas and perched himself on a friendly fence, Where he might ponder on the evil of his ways, and give the moisture a chance to evaporate from his best pants.

URING the winter term an overwhelming desire possessed certain ofthe dwellers on the campus to lcnow what the members of the famous Co-ord Club talked about in the tri-daily sessions. To be sure these meetings were not secret. Visitors had been frequently' admitted, and on such occasions, of course, girls never talk of anything but fashion and boys. But curiosity was not quite satisfied until, by the aid of a phonograph, the table-talk of the Co-ord Cub was reproduced. Some of the investigators had fondly expected to hear their own names in a sweet, well-known voice, float from the magic instrument. What they did hear, is this :-- H A These sjearchings after tr-uth agitate my sovulto its very depths.

T'i sublime egotism and a strong conception of its - own vast erudition inirrored in the clear-cut out- lines of its own conceit I Why then, you ask, do you snatch away those con- cealing veils meant to hide from vulgar View the inherent weakness of your own nature ? My simple friend, it is that you may avoid the dry and barren deserts of a bookworm's life, that you may shun those terrible Maelstrorns, those whirling eddies that mete out intellectual death on every hand. But wait. Nature, life, man, and I was about to say the Hbonnie lassie, once had their charms for me. I was not always a wrinkled, white-headed, withered up, old biped, a plant, wilted through a disastrous attempt at overeulture. Why, even the sparring match and the race course, the minstrel troupe and whist liable once had some charm for me. , Yet I had never viewed these maligned diversions of life with the cynical eye of the philosophical fool, choked with the mummiiied dust of ethics and metaphysics, nor had I beheld their misty outlines with the double vision of the too eager devotee of Bacchus. But at this critical point, however, when I bade fair to pilot my frail craft safely between the hidden shoals of pedantic pedantry and the wave-beaten rocks of frivolous frivolity, I took a header, to use the cut-and-dried phrase of the cyclist, and fromvthe shock it gave me I have never recovered. It was thus: a young clerical friend of mine asked me to glance through some of the volumi- nous works of one of the founders of Ratiocinationism, Dr. Magnus Polemicus, F. R. S., Fellow of the Ratiocination Society. I did so, and, strange as it may seem, I also soon became fairly enamoured of this mystical trash. Time went on and gradually I became more and more ensnared. Here, I fancied, must be the original source, the fountain head of a sublime and refulgent science, a field as yet little 'tilled by that featherless biped, man. Perhaps, thought I to myself, I may become as famous in this field as Dr. Polemicus himself. Matters went on from bad to- Worse, I gnawed, gnawed, gnawed day and night. Nor can I any more explain the cause of this strange infatuation than I can account for the enthralling power of the cup or the deadly grip of opium. .When not under the spell of the dusty mustiness of Polemicus and Ratiocinationism I suffered the most excruciating tortures. I was an agitated, throbbing, palpitating, 142 - shattered bit of humanity. On one occasion, indeed, when asked by a friend the cause of the look of pensive imbecility and owl-like serenity on my marbled features, I told him it was occasioned by indigestion, brought on by too great attention to the pursuit of phantoms over the dusty wastes of Ratiocinationism. Yet I did nothing, could do nothing, would do nothing else. For years I sought far and wide for further traces of Polemicus' inspired works. I ransacked Europe and America, tried to rouse the Seven Sleepers of Ephesus, burrowed with the Mud Flat Indians of Venezuela, investigated the royal archives of Terra Del Fuego, and revelled in the priceless private collection of Ex-Queen Liliuokalani, of Hawaii, for she excels both as a n'z'!efmm'e and a cofzfzozksezzff. Vain! Vain! Vain! No trace, no whisper, no footprint. Could I but grasp, for one short moment, one of his manuscripts, could I but read the title, even, of his last on- slaught on the untenable position of Cuckooism, nay, could I merely inhale the dust gently wafted from the sacred folds of his precious volume, the elixir of life would be mine. What torment ! What torture I suffered ! The gorgeous visions of Ratiocinationism no longer darted through my fevered brain. The deadly stupor was gone. The spell was past. I pined and languished until I could hardly drag my emaciated form through the narrow alleys of libraries and book stalls, but-sad to tell, I survived. I ' At last, however, despairing of gaining any more of the dusty relics 'of Ratio- cinationism, despairing of Herr' Polemicus, despairing of myself unless my slavish appetite could be sated by some ancient tome, I fled, as a.-last resort, to other fields, just as a toper deprived of one kind of drink seeks another. I spent hours over elementary kindergarten and its correlative, abstract and abstruse theological theoriziug. Exhausting these, I rummaged old garrets for works on progressive laughter and farming on the half-shell. Next, perhaps, I would delve into com- parative hypocrisy and intensive peanut culture. ' Thus I roamed and wandered hither and thither, o'er that trackless intellectual desert whose accursed boundaries I shall never recross. And here I am now, as unsaved as ever, stuttering acutely when not revelling in literary dust, and in a deep ,mental stupor when under the spell. Oh, terrible intellectual rate ofthe bookworm, to be as warily shunned as slavish devotion to the wine cup or the insinuating snarcs of opium. It may smack of knowledge, it may be arrayed in the gaudy Vestments of a specious wisdom, it may garnbol before you as the personification of the intellectual ideal, but+ beware. Take, then, this sage advicepor' a coniirmed inebriate, an unsaved bookworm still in the tangled mazes of his snare, for he gives to you the product of years of suffering, sublimated by the flight of time.

V25 0 ln the college, hushed in slumber, A dreamer listens to the thunder Rolling, rumbling, deep-voiced thunder, With lightning splitting oaks asunder, Crashing midst the mountain boulders. Half wakened by his drearn's confusion, Rising in his bed with fear, Listening, looks out through the darkness, By instinct feeling danger near. A sudden strange .and weird sensation Chains his half recovered senses A chilling, weakening, ghostly feeling, As again that sound commences. Then by some strange fascination, Drawn by agencies supernal, Forth he goes into the hall-way A To witness ash-can tricks infernal. 147 What a sight! strange shapes and antics, Mystic circles, jigs and reels, Fancy dances, swinging, changing,- Each an inspiration feels, As, perched upon an elevation, The fiddler grinds out music, sweating, Pufling, rocking, stamping, laboring, But neler a Whit his toil abating. But afar the cockls shrill clarion l' Now proclaims that day is nigh, When by laws forever changeless They must human dwellings Hy. Yet the.music, charmed, compels them Still to dance, till inclination Moves the fiddler to abstain, But instantly wild consternation Seizes every dancer there. Aurora, light-Winged, enters angry At her warning disobeyedg So, in mad confusion gathered, All rush down the stairs dismayed. The student, faltering 'mid the shadows, Monstrous grown to eyes of fear, Bolder grows as twilight's phantoms At Dawnls approach all disappear, Loiters by some heap of rubbish, Or wall of badly broken plaster, Where, tumbling, leaping, rolling, crashing Headlong going faster, faster, The ash-cans struck with woeful clashing On the floor, disfigured, battered, Lay the ash-cans, headless, armless. They no more can dance a can-can: They lie legless, lifeless, harmless. A. E. H l 148 Pl Seniors Reverie. inf ES, here I am, and what am I? I am a Senior, a WQQ ,.'XE College Senior, nay more, a Colby Senior, a being Qgcffgsf, just now languidly enjoying all the elegant and voluptuous cg yfkfflf pleasures so deftly entwined in the few short days of a ii' Senior's vacation, that pleasing oasis of life when one's e Alma Mater, having freed him from the tasks of the past four iieeting years, stands with wistful look and beckoning hand to grant to him the culminating token of her bounty, ji izll gg a sheepskin. What time more fitting for reverie and 944' l reflection? What opportunity for dreamy, yet half serious 51 3 - musing on the fast-Hitting sketches of the past, and the fd-7 , -'gl l yet more hazy outlines of the future? Ah, none. But at what halting place, at what mile-stone along the winding path of life's span am I now so leisurely and half unconsciously resting? As a mariner on the vast and trackless deep, let me gaze about and try to gain my bearings. But haste. I-Iow the past flashes through the echoing halls of memory. How imagination paints with deft fancy the bald and scattered outlines of the scenes of old. Why, even I, a Senior wise in my own conceit, was once a romping youth playing in childlike glee around the old red school-house by the turn of the road, and chasing butterflies over the downy meadows. And yet, in my breast was enkindled the desire for knowledge, and a longing to sip at the refreshing fountains of classic lore. Ah ! I see now the flame bursting forth and burning with brighter glow, as for a few years I tripped more or less lightly over the tangled mazes of Euclid, and wandered here and there through the groves consecrated to the song and story of ancient Greece and Rome. Indeed, not aimless wandering this, for there ever arose before me, in a sort of enraptured vision, a majestic arch on whose rustic gate I saw in dream-like fancy the phrase, Knowledge and The Fulness of Life, above which imagination had woven the mystic sign, Colby University. Can all these fancies crowding the tablet of time be real? Are all these fig- ments true to life? With a hasty Yes, my thoughts run on and on, and 149 through the vistas of the last four fleeting years, I see myself a Freshman, yea, a Colby Freshman, on the lowest step of the college ladder. Ah ! can it be that I, a noble Senior, was ever a Freshman simple l But the months roll swiftly on and on, and years to mystic four glide on and on, and memory in winged flight sweeps on and on. I behold, in rapture, my Sophomore days and my junior days, my days of labor and my days of rest, my days of profit and my days of loss. But hush l - I feel even now the soft and gentle zephyrs freshly wafted from hours of Senior pleasure. I muse with mild delight over years of advancement and progress, over pleasant tasks, with 'hopes blasted and desires fulfilled. I feel the conscious throbbing . of growth and expansion, of broadening and deepening, of realization and idealization. Ah! yes, and I feel the friendships that four years of pleasant association have formed and ripened into tender recollections of regardfor that group of instructors who have been our guides, and for that band of classmates, as good, as true, as loyal as ever pursued the by-ways of knowledge by the historic Kennebec. I see, I behold with well nigh inspired vision, the mile-stone and eminence of my halting place in life's march. O, glorious sight! O, splendid panorama! Would that you might ever remain in your pristine loveliness, a dream, a fancy, a reverie of exquisite beauty. But from the gorgeous fantasy of this musing reverie, I must shake my enthralled senses. My Alma Mater invites me with winning grace to receive her Hnal charge and God Speed. I cannot, should not, mzzrz' not tarry. Brush away the angelic fancies of sentiment with the rough wand of rude reality, and let me hurry forth into the world of action, into the arena of life. W. L. 1. Weaeiiffef ' 150 Pl Suggestion. A I - W7'i!!e1z afar refzding Tile Los! C'ka7'rZ. j Seated one morn in the Chapel, I was weary and ill at ease, The organist's fingers wandered Over the noisy keys. I knew not what he was playing, I thought I was dreaming then, For he struck one chord of music Like the sound of a great A - men. It came oler my soul like magic, Then as quickly it went away, That such a thing seldom happened, Itis needless for me to say. Now came the sound of discord, Such as always causes strife, But somehow it seemed the echo Of our discordant life. It brought all perplexed meanings Na! into perfect peace, And it trembled not into silence, - I thought it would never cease. I-Iow I hoped, but I hoped in vain For the one lost chord divine, Which had come from the soul of the Organ And entered into mine. It may be that the Chapel Organ Will some day be in tune, I hope for those who listen, That it will be very soon. 151 H D.T.H The Sophonoore'S Ltarnerpt. 7 5 vs,-f X OT many generations ago, where you now sit circled with all that exalts and embellishes college life, our university existed with men only as students, and hazing was at its height. Beneath the same sun that rolls over your head, the college man celebrated the offices of Bacchus, gazing on the same moon that smiles for you, the Sophomore revelled in his peanut drunks. Once the water gently descended on the tender and helpless Freshman, sus- picion eyed him- on every side. Here they warred, the echoing whoop, the bloody grapple, the defying death song - all were here 5 and when the Sophomoric exploits were over, here curled the smoke of peace. All this is passing away. There grew up a tender plant, bearing the seeds of life and death. The former were sown for woman, the latter sprang up in the path of man. A few years have changed the character of Colby, and the braves of Phi Chi are fast disappearing. Co-ordination has usurped the bowers of nature, and the anointed children of education have been too powerful for the tribes of the ignorant. Here and there a stricken few remain, but how unlike their bold, untamable pro- genitors. The Phi Chi brave of falcon glance and lion bearing, the theme of the touching war-song, the hero of the pathetic tale, is gone, and his degraded off- spring crawl upon the ground, where he walked in majesty, to remind us how miserable is the Sophomore, when the foot of the conqueror is on his neck. As a body, they have withered from the land. Their tin horns are broken, their squirt-guns are of no use, their tall hats are in the dust. Their council tire has long since gone out, and their yells are fast dying away. Slowly and sadly they climb the stairs of their abodes, and read their doom in the setting sun. Years hence, the inquisitive co-ords, as they stand by the dormitories, will ponder on the deeds of their predecessors, and will wonder what manner of men these were who live now only in the songs and chronicles of their exterminators.

Tom called on me this evening, and, after the matron admitted him the 's awfully nicej, she told me to see that he removed his rubbers, to leave the recep- tion-room door ajar, to ask him for his references for proof of good character tif he had anyj, and to entertain him half an hour if we were engaged, ten minutes if not, and perhaps twenty if we had arrived at an understanding. What hair- splitting distinctions ! I found a gray, hair to-night. Sunday, frm. 7Z'h. I dragged my weary limbs to church to-day, and heard a sermon about that time when U The Wicked cease from troubling and the weary are at rest. I have 157 . been unfortunate, certainly, in the results of my endeavors to keep the rules 5 but I capped the climax to-night. Harry walked home from church with me, and stepped in for a moment. It was the most natural thing in the world for us to discuss the sermon, and time ilew. Suddenly a tall form appeared in the door- way, and said, I am afraid, my dear, you do not apprehend that this is not a reception night. It is so discouraging! I have tried to remember to report every time I have turned around, but there is a point beyond which, etc. I can't decide whether it is all a farce or not. Well, time will tell.

AN ACROSTIC. Close by the river that rushes along, Close to the railroad with engines so strong, College walls rise in the morning air clear, Campus and ball field and curved walks appear- Commonly known as old Colby. Often the traveller on the through train Out of the car looks again and againg Objects of interest sees oler the street, Or from the station loud cheers his ears greet Of Hrah! rah! rah! rah 1 for old Colby. Long has the bell called to class with its chime, Long have those walls been exposed to the climeg Long do the winters cling around them each year, Lowering clouds send their snow storms so drear, Laying their drifts on old Colby. Boatmen may sing of the ocean's bright gleam, But Messalonskee's meandering stream Bears for the student far greater delight, By moon-gleam or star-gleam or holiday bright, Beckoning forth from old Colby. Years ago Colby boys heard the war's call- Yonder their monument, up in the Hall, Young were their hearts, and in God was their trust Yearning to raise from dishonor and dust Your emblem, O Country and Colby! 164 Diligent students these men from the North- Do you, Chicago and 'XHopkins, speak forth! Doubts set at rest! Better men, near or far, Descry if you can,! So if sluggards there are Don't think they are relics of Colby. Also the co-eds must have a brief space. After large numbers came into the place, Added plans changed them to 'tco-ords instead Ask not the sequel, for much might be said As to this plan for old Colby. You well remember the chapel each morn, Youive not forgotten the jubilant horn, HY. M. reception, church social, or call, Yielding an evening's requitalg these all You class with the name of old Colby. Sun of life's summer its west'ring will find, Shadows will come, many scenes slip from mind- Still shall the days that in Colby we passed Stay with us, clear and undimmed, to the last- So shall we 'honor our Colby!

Dear Szr:- Doubtless you have long felt the need in your curriculum of a course in the profane languages. It is a lamentable fact that but few scholars of the present day have attained to sufficient proficiency to give instruction in this sadly neglected branch of learning. Colby would do well to secure the services of a 507Z7'LOZ195EZl7' who can teach the clear, forcible, and elegant use of the profane languages. The importunities of the undergraduates of Colby have induced me to propose the establishment of this chair, and make application for it. For references, see below. Very respectfully yours, HUGH DEAN MCLELLAN, P.P. We, the undersigned, heartily endorse the proposal to establish a professorship of profanity at Colby, and gladly recommend the above applicant as peculiarly fitted by natural talent, careful training, and constant practice for giving instruction in this branch. E. C. CLARK. 1. F. PHILBROOK. E. L. HALL. J. COLBY BASSETT. H. T. WATICINS. G. L. BAKER. A. W. SNARE. J. B. ALEXANDER. M. E. SAWTELLE. Dear Sir:-Feeling that the present incumbent in the department of Elocution is in need of an assistant, I hereby make application for the position of assistant professor in Elocution. My experience in the Calais high school, together with the instruction which I have for the past year gratuitously given in the college, renders me eminently fitted for the task. I give no references: my past work recommends me. Yours, H. L. SWAN. Dear .S'z'1':-The better class of our alumni and students are mourning over the innocuous desuetude into which our most glorious customs have passed. Since enter- ing Colby I have quietly labored to revive those ancient practices which in former days kept college spirit alive, but owing to the obscurity of Freshmanhood, I have not been alarmingly successful. Hoping that the dignity of a professorship will materially aid my efforts, I hereby apply for the position of Doctor of Deviltry. Yours truly, l Roy M. EARKER, D.D. Upon application, the following professors have been chosen: I. S. LYNCH, Prof. of Drawing Cto a flushj. H. C. HANSCOM, Prof. of Painting fthe town redj. 172 Hip Extract from the Minutes of the Board of Conference October 5, 1894. MEETING of the Board of Conference called to order by President Whitman, who spoke as follows :- - Probably such a fine body of young men was never before assembled for the regulation of college affairs. Probably no college was ever before in such a pros- perous condition. However, alittle judicious legislation cannot be amiss, and will undoubtedly effect more desirable results. Well-,calculated legislation is at all times perfectly legitimate. Even if a law covers no existing abuse, yet it can work no harm to any one, and, indeed, may be of service in some future contingency. On the other hand, if a law makes pro- vision against a present evil, it serves a most commendable purpose. Young men, you are sent here to legislate, and the student body, which you represent, expects you to fulfil your obligation. PROF. MATHEXVS. Permit me to add that it is in the nature of the Saxon race to assemble and make laws. I quote for my authorities on this point, Lodge, Fiske, Bryce, Freeman, Taylor, and others too numerous to mention. PRES. WHITMAN. Quite right, Professor Mathews, quite right. MR. PURINTON. In behalf of the Student Committee, I will say that we want to do something to make the bums of the college come to time, and we have framed the following laws, worded as carefully as possible in order to avoid any misunderstanding z- , Emi. Each and every student shall, each and every day, before the hour of ftenj 10 A. M., carry out and deposit in a certain receptacle or repository Cmade of zinc, slightly larger than a barrel and somewhat smaller than a hogshead, known by the appellation of ash-can j all ashes, cinders, clinkers, and any other refuse from his stove, if there be any. Said student shall, before the process of deposition of said refuse, carefully remove the lid, cover, or top of said ash-can 5 and, after said refuse is emptied, he shall as carefully replace the separable, movable, or detachable upper portion of said ash-can. . It shall likewise be incumbent upon said student to wipe up with handkerchief, towel, or other dry-goods, any sediment, molecule, or atom of powder, dust, or other pulverized substance, however minute, insignificant, or invisible, which may 173 become settled upon the ceiling, walls, or floor of the hall in which said ash-can is located. All of which obligations, requirements and requisitions shall be fulfilled on pain of instant exile from this institution. -Second. Every student shall, after sweeping, dusting, or otherwise cleaning his room, remove the refuse consequent upon such operations, to the ash-can, in the manner hereinafter carefully designated, specified, and particularized : - Said individual shall gather, collect, and place the hereinbefore mentioned refuse upon a dust-pan, shovel, or other suitable utensil, and carefully, cautiously, and circumspectly carry, convey, and transport said refuse to said ash-can and deposit it therein, taking due care that no sediment, molecule, or atom of powder, dust, or other pulverized substance may become attached to the ceiling, walls, or floor ofthe hall in which said ash-can is located. All of which obligations, requirements and requisitions shall be fulfilled on pain of instant and forcible ejection from this institution. Thirzi. No student shall touch, handle, or in any Way disturb the peace of the ash-cans in the several halls, on penalty of one dollar QSSLOOQ fine for the first offence, five dollars Cf55.00j fine for the second offence, and expulsion for the third offence. Fozzffh. No student shall at any time, for any cause, or under any con- sideration, speak above a whisper while on the campus, above an ordinary tone of voice within one hundred yards of said campus, or use boisterous language within one mile of said campus. Any student feeling a desire, impulse, or constraint to sneeze, cough, or make unseemly noises of any sort whatsoever, shall hurriedly, hastily, and percipitately depart beyond the one hundred-yard limit. If any student shall, at any time, find it necessary, needful or essential to pass, Walk, or otherwise transport himself through the halls, vestibules or corridors of any of the dormitories of this institution, it is herein ordered that he shall take off, remove, or withdraw his boots, shoes, slippers, moccasins, or any other exterior apparel of his pedal extremities, and proceed, advance, or perambulate solely and alone in his hose, stockings, socks, leggings, or other interior apparel of his pedal extremities. ' . All of which obligations, requirements andrequisitions shall be fulfilled on pain of instant banishment from this institution. These laws are respectfully submitted by the Student Committee for the ap- proval of the Board. 174 MR. WATERS. If any argument is needed to justify our position in the pro- posal of these laws, I would advance the following points, which will effectually squelch all opposition. These laws ought to be adopted,ji7'sz', because they are necessary Qaj to the faculty, my to the Conference Board. Second, because they are needful Qaj to the Faculty, Qbj to the Conference Board. Tkz'mQ because they are essential Qaj to the Faculty, QM to the Conference Board. Faurfh, because they are requisite to the Faculty, Qbj to the Conference Board. , Fffh, because they are indispensable Qezj to the Faculty, my to the Confer- ence Board. Y I present my argument only in outline, for it is so clear, cogent, and con- vincing that it needs no explication. MR. F. M. PADELFORD.
