While naturally modest, like all class historians, the present writer feels it a duty not only to the class, but Q, f -. to posterity, to record a few achievements as an example to coming .1 'F l :ln classes. hi' Sli if ' l In the first nlace, we brought to the colle e amon our number an g l is E 8 article of considerable value, which Colby happened to be out of just then,-a President. Under our guidance, the gentleman in question advanced the interests of the college in- a marked degree. His own progress was so remarkable that he was allowed to take his senior work to us in his third year, at the end of which he graduated with high honors and went to the University. We had some feeling that the rest of us might justly have been allowed to do the same, but the trustees pointed out that we were not all as good scholars as Dr. Whitman, and thought it best for us to linger around another year. We realized ourselves that the Faculty would need our help. Assisted by Dr. Pepper, who entered with us, but had dropped back into the Faculty, we managed the affairs of the college very smoothly, until the arrival of Dr. Butler, who has since relieved us a good deal by attending to all the minor matters himself. The college had been troubled for some time previous to our arrival, by a ferocious and unmannerly dragon called Phi Chi, With rare courage we attacked this creature. We did not kill it, but, rejecting the barbarous and inhuman policy of capital punishment, we reformed it and reduced it to a very harmless and' commendable beast, which is now a credit to the college. Nor have we neglected our social duties. In the words of the famous Sawtelle, we have cared for the beautiful with sedulous attention. We have been guided in this work by the classic motto, f'VVhole hog or none, in accordance with which we have allowed no flirtation to continue over three months unless the parties would sign a matrimonial agreement. By this policy we have husbanded Qand wifedj our resources to a remark- able extent, and still there is more to follow. YVe have altered the curriculum at the expense of great labor and personal discomfort, of which succeeding classes reap the benefit. We have also made sweeping and needed changes in the management of athletics. I-laving thus established all departments of the college on a new and sound basis, and broken in four or hve new professors and two presidents, we feel that we can safely leave the college in the hands of the Faculty, assuring them that whenever they are in trouble in the future, we shall be glad to give them the benefit of our advice. Meanwhile we feel that we are needed elsewhere. Sawtelle has already refused two invitations to the Cabinet, and Congress is anxiously awaiting the publication of the Settlement of the Silver Question by Cole, Collins and Dunn. With a clear conscience, then, we leave for fresh fields and pastures new. 27 wlaaff nf 596. il? I QEUUIBII. CLASS YELLZ-,RZLI1 ! . 'Rah l 'Rah I 'Rah ! 'Rah I Colby! Colby! 'Rahl 'Rah l 'Rah! Hiyi!

Of these there are many varieties: calendars, biographies, memoirs and all WV --'t4 4Q1f . . . . . , . . . . V such things. If this 1S true, The History of the Girls of 96 is entirely orthodox, for it is Q found in the form of relics and traditions, Our relics are in our Memorabilias. As 51' W . . . ' im , for the traditions, just ask the other classes. Then consult our calendars-any '96 calendar-they're full of blue-and-brownletter days 5 go to our chronicles and annals, you'll find such items as this: At the Dean's house, fifteen girls dressed a doll and ate Welsh Rarebit till midnight. This is the only record ever known of Senior girls who played with dolls, yet their dignity remains unimpeached. Then investigate our biographies, just far enough to learn that we have wise, witty and Winsome girls, pretty, practical and musical girls, girls who like to study, and girls who don'tg girls who can write poetry, and girls who can'tg girls who wear diamond rings on certain lingers, and girls who don't. If you want any further light on our past, look into the memoirs. Here is the booty carefully preserved from our intellectual adventures. Here the- groaning Senior article lies side by side with the sigh-covered German story, while the mournful Greek notes plaintively rise over the spires and turrets of johns Hopkins University. Last of all you must refer to the most reliable source of information for college girls' history-Ladies' Hall, Ask her if the times when her old floors trembled the hardest weren't the times when '96 girls were cele- brating? Ask her if in her old walls there aren't stored up the merriest laughs that came from '96 girls? Ask her, too, if somewhere she hasn't traces of secret tears shed by these same girls? No, '96 girls have nothing extraordinary to record. There are no book-worms, no blue-stockings, among us : we are only fifteen girls who have had our share of work and honors as college-life goes, but who lay claim to little else except the fact that we have lived happily andloved each other. , 29 Maw nf !97. 5' 9 EDEN.

In the class-room we took our X's and deficiencies with equal imperturbability, As Sophomores we undertook the thankless task of disciplining a fresh and furious mob, three times our number. Moreover, throughout the year, we respected every tradition and legend that ever haunted the Campus. We have long ago said good-bye to class-scraps. We now give our attention to the Professors rather than to their rooms. We as juniors, have intended to bear ourselves as juniors should, let the result seem as it may. There is little more to say. As a band of savages tread a forest and leave but a single path behind, so successive classes follow each other through the maze of a college course. ,97 is no exception to the rule thus far, and so, content in' the knowledge that her story has been told many a time better than she has told it, with a sigh of relief, she lays down the pen. 31 warm nf 597. ii' IEBUIIIBII.

O strong to uplift and inspire, O mother of wisdom and might, Who teachest us still to aspire And armest our souls for the iight: In return for the heaven-born fire With which thou hast lighted our nigh To-day we would show our desire To praise thee and thank thee aright. The painter has striven to show The heavenly glory to man, And has Captured a hint of the glow That shone ere the ages began. The light of that face we would throw On the walls of thy hall, if we can, That men may behold it and know How the tide of our gratitude ran. Ezhnntgg-Ellifilg Qnniinerasargg. The College Ideal and American Life . . Elulg 3, 1895. 5- if Qhhreaa. . . PROF. NATHANIEL BUTLER, A.M., CLASS Hnniinemargg wire. By REV. S. F. SMITH, D.D., Author of the National Hymn, Ame1fz'ca. Blest be the men, the ancient men, Who once these sacred pathways trod, Nobly fulnlled their course, and then Retired to rest with fame and God. High priests of knowledge, brave and true, They lived, the distant years to bless, Born for the times, a faithful few, Their zeal achieved sublime success. The plans they formed, the ends they sought, Have all the wrecks of time defied, The works their hands with wisdom wrought, A holy influence, still abide. Fair seat of learning! onward still Grandly pursue thy high career, Vlfhile thousands shall their course fulfil, Proud that their youth was nurtured here. 48 '7 Invocation History, . Oration, .

Col- lege spirit and college rivalry are good things, and especially so, when they are developed along the lines of work for which pre-eminently the college is intended. For some time the colleges of the West have been giving a good deal of attention to intercollegiate debating contests, and though the movement has progressed more slowly in the.East, it has nevertheless been felt. The New England League owes its existence largely to the enthusiasm and energy of Clifford Thorn, of Boston University, now the president of the League. It includes at present only four colleges : Boston Univer- sity, Wesleyan, Bates and Colby. It is hoped, however, that another year will see a large number of the smaller New England colleges added to its membership. Meanwhile the beneficial effects upon our own college can already be seen. The interest in debating has been greatly increased, and has shown itself in the establishment of a Sophomore Prize Debate in addition to the customary Junior Debate. There has also been more or less talk about the formation of a public debating society, to afford a better opportunity for developing the talent of the college along this line. The plan is a good one and it is to be hoped that its realization 'is not far off. 53 Ehminq 1191352 QQBIIEITB. MUSIC. QUESTION : Resolved,-That th Bapiiai fdilgurrfg, imlardg G, 1896. 55' PRAYER.

' Emma IZFTDXII the German ofTriiger.:l If anywhere thou hast a home, Then take thy stafl' and wallet down, And travel, travel without rest, Until thou reach the town. lf but two tender arms are stretched Toward thee in loving eagerness, lf for thy sake but one tear falls, If but one mouth thy name doth bless: Then, though a beggar, thou art rich, Though sick at heart, depressed in mind, The sweet word 'L welcome will suffice To bid thee health and gladness findj And if no trace remains to thee, And tearful eyes of hope bereft, See nothing but a grass-grown mound Of all that thou hast left: Oh, nowhere canst thou weep so well, Though far thy feet may carry thee, As where in quiet rests a heart That once beat warm for thee! FLORENCE E. DUNN, '96. 5' 5' 104 Qbaritng. fFrom the German of Otto Roquettej Now is the golden time gone by, Forever gone, and what care I For all the coming years? My dearest hope must be repressed And my whole heart within my breast ls full of tears, of tears. To-night for the last time my feet Trod many a well-remembered street, While friends the hours sped, They all like brothers pressed my hand, Though in a strange and distant land, Forget us not, they said. Once more from the old bridge my glance Beheld the va1ley's wide expanse, The water rushed along. I marked not how it came or went, But that old dreams whose life was spent, Were mingled with its song. The very gables shared the spell, And their Farewell, old friend, farewell, Seemed sounding in my ears. Now is the parting too gone by, Forever gone, and what care I For all the coming years? FLORENCE E. DUNN, '9 'Mya 3:9221 fitllniqms, LFrom the German ol' Friedrich I-lalm.j Who lightly opens gate and door? Who is this stealthy one? To his deaf mother, from afar Comes home the truant son. He enters, but she hears him not, Beside the fire she spins, Then stepping close he speaks to her And 'L mother! he begins. And as he speaks she glances up, But wonderful surprise- She is not deaf to that low word, She hears him with her eyes. To clasp him close she lifts her arms And holds them wide apart, And then, though deaf, his mother hears The beating of his heart. And as she sits beside her son, With gladness in her eyes, I know that little mother hears The songs of Paradise. ALICE L. COLE, '9 ' Ktrainzlling. Ufrom the German of NVilhelm Miillerj To travel is the milleris joy, To travel I That must a wretched miller be NVho ne'er has gone the world to see, To travel. The water teaches it to us, The water 1 It has no rest by night or day, But hastens ever on its way, The water. We see it in the mill wheel, too, The mill Wheel I To stop is far from its desire, lt whirls about and does not tire, The mill wheel. The very mill stones, oh so hard, The mill stones! As gayly as the rest they go, Yet think their dancing all too slow, The mill stones. Oh but to travel, my delight, To travel ! O master, mistress, let me cease, And let me go away in peace To travel. ALICE L. COLE, 105 Qlnlur Euan. LFrom the German of YVollheim.l On God's broad earth, the noblest, best, The fairest things that swell the breast Bedeck themselves in blue and red, The colors l love till love be dead. Steal I to nature's haunts away, The rose and violet strew the way, The violets blue, the roses red, The colors I love till love be dead. How dearly I love with the zither low To gaze afar on the evening glow ! It flames the heavens blue and red, The colors I love till love be dead. But sitting by my loved one's side Roll raptured thoughts in a blissful tide, I-Ier eyes so blue, her cheek so red, The colors I love till love be dead. lf glory calls me, steel on arm, Then shed I gladly my heart's blood warm, My steel so blue, my blood so red, The colors I love till love be dead. And when in the tomb you lay my form, Thus, brother mine, my bier adorn NVith one bright band of blue and red, The colors I love till love be dead. '9S. ALICE L. NYE. '97.

President But- ler is of this exceptional type. It re- quires no wrenching of conscience and no drafts upon Pickwickian idiom for an old friend to write of him many things which all who love a college would wish to be true of its head. Nor is it necessary to suppress other facts which would be discreditable if admitted. It has been said that no hero is a hero to his valet, simply because the hero is a hero and the valet a valet. Neither hero nor valet is here con- cerned. The subject and the writer of this sketch are at least in so far alike that the latter sincerely appreciates the sterling manliness of the former, and it is therefore easy, without excessive praise, to offer a tribute whichrelatively few men deserve. President Butler began life in the exercise of that precocious discretion which Dri Holmes has famously commended. He elected to be descended from a superior grandfather. We cannot afford to forget the strong men of an elder generation, for 8 9' 5' 113 the memory of the fathers will help to develop in future sons of Maine the physical and mental and moral strength which is their birthright. It is like serving under a flag inscribed with victories to feel that one sprang from the same soil which produced men Of the fibre of Rev. john Butler. A surviving son of this sturdy sire, Mr. Charles Butler, of Frank- lin, Ohio, writes incidents of his father's life which those only can rightlyinterpret who know how to appreciate the stuff that makes the most of pinched conditions. john Butler did not have a liberal educa- tion, and I am unable to discover how much school- ing he enjoyed. He acquired the shoemaker's trade, and, according to his sonls testimony, it was his habit to have an English Grammar and other books by his side on the bench, and to study them while at work. After Mr. Butler became a preacher he opened a school for young women in Wfinthrop, Maine. In the interest of this school, and of female education in general, he lectured much throughout the State. The science of astronomy furnished some of his subjects. Students who have been taught in Shannon Observatory may smile at the further record that Mr. Butler illustrated his astronomical lectures with an orrery of his own invention, and that h'e made -and sold many duplicates of this device. Naive and pathetic all this may be, but it means more to be proud of than the true story of many a family in the peerage would reveal. If there are degenerates in our day, it is partly because so much is done to help us amount to something that we miss the discipline of creating out of nothing the means of developing ourselves. Professor Samuel K. Smith has written the fol- lowing of this typical man : My acquaintance with Mr. Butler was only such as a young man, prior to his entrance upon his college course, would be likely to form. My knowledge of him, however, was not wholly gained from others who knew him, but from my own personal intercourse with him. He was regarded by myself, as well as by those about me, as a very able, upright and devoted man. As a preacher he had few equals in the State, his ser- mons being always clear, concise and logical, and their delivery forcible and impressive. In early life he leaned, I think, toward hyper-Calvinism, and was tinctured somewhat with the ancient Baptist intolerance. Later in life, however, he was led to modify these views, becoming somewhat more tolerant and liberal. And yet those of his brethren in those old days, who were most disturbed by the change, were ready to acknowledge that the 114 subsequent portion of his ministry was remarkable for its wider influence and its wider usefulness. But I knew Mr. Butler not only as a preacher under whose ministrations I often received great help, but as a wise counsel- lor of young men. From his strong personality and his deep sympathy, his 'hold on the young and his influence over them was very great. I myself have always felt that I owed to him a great debt for what he did in this way for me. For a time also in his early ministry he established and taught a school at Winthrop for the young ladies of that and neighboring towns. Several of the scholars of this school I have known, and they always have spoken in the highest terms of that early school, and of Mr. Butler. Rev. John Butler was made an honorary gradu- ate of Waterville College, with the degree of Master of Arts, in 1832, and he served the College as a mem- ber of the Board of Trustees from 1826 to 1855.- The father of President Butler was graduated .at Waterville in the class of 1842. He was also a mem- ber of the Board of Trustees of the College from 1856 to 1887. To Dr. Nathaniel Butler, Senior, many of the same traits are to be credited which evidently belonged to his father. Yet those who remember both would doubtless say that, as the boyhood of the son was passed in less rugged conditions, and as he was formed by more artificial culture, the Hner rather than the stronger traits of the father were prominent in the son. Nathaniel Butler, Senior, was of a sensi- tive, artistic temperament. He was responsive to every aspect of beauty, whether in form, color, har- mony, sentiment or action. If the term had been in vogue, his contemporaries would have called him an impressionist. He had genuiue talent for music, for painting and for lyric poetry. There was a remark- ably persuasive and convicting quality in his preach- ing. I distinctly remember how the tears would sneak out of my eyes while listening to him, when I would have preferred a thrashing to the betrayal of any emotion about religion. At the same time Mr. Butler was one of the few ministers Whose visits to my father-'s house during my boyhood did not seem to me an affliction. I always feared that he would ap- proach me on the dreaded subject of religion, but my feeling was that at the worst he would do it like a gentleman. In a private letter President Butler wrote recently: 'I During the last ten days I have been all the Way from Hebron to Calais, and nearly everywhere I iind those who remember with affection and grati- tude both my grandfather and my fatherf' Nathaniel Butler, jr., impressed -himself upon my imagination at our tirst meeting. It was soon after the beginning of the Civil War. With his father, who had been acting as Secretary of the Vice-President, II5 and his mother, a sister of Mrs. Hamlin, he was pass- ing through Bangor from Washington. He could hardly have been more than ten years old, but as his age was at least one year greater than mine, as he possessed a more belligerent looking toy musket than I had ever seen, as his conversation seemed to me as replete with adventure as Othello's did to Desdemona, and as his deportment was all that my fancy demanded of a soldier, the effect was as though I had been a raw recruit in the reserves, and he a scout from the front. This reference will be pardonded even in the punctilious pages of the ORACLE, because I want to add that although in my more sophisticated view some of the bolder lines of this first impression have been softened, I have never seen the present head of Colby University in a light which essentially changed my opinion that he was right manfully filling his place. Let me not be understood as meaning that my friend was one of the edifying boys of the old-fashioned Sunday-school books, nor one of the juvenile paragons of Oliver Gptie's creation. He was, as I analyze him from recollection, a boy whose appetite was ample and digestion good, whose conscience gave him no particular trouble, whose instincts were healthy, and who was free from the self-consciousness which pre- vents the majority of young males of the human spe- cies from being thoroughly wholesome boys. He was the drummer of the Camden Cornet Band, and his father delighted to tell how in 1867 the boy, beat- ing a full-sized tenor drum, with the solemn Visage of a drum major, kept step and time with his seniors at the head of the Fourth of july procession. If the editors do not allow him to read my confidences out of the proof, I shall also confide to the ORACLE that I have seen this same young man execute an artistic clog dance in a way that would win an encore on any variety stage. VVhere he acquired that accomplish- ment and how frequently he used it, I do not know. I refer to it as an evidence that as a boy he took life as any honest boy would who was neither unnaturally earthly nor preternaturally spiritual. When I entered Colby in the Autumn of ,72, and renewed my acquaintance with lVIr. Butler, who was already a Senior, my earlier opinion of him was confirmed. Although I am writing for students, I will venture the assertion that he was singular among college students whom I have known, in his ability to make his dignity felt without seeming ridiculous, and at the same time to make himself ridiculous on occa- sions without losing his dignity. His rank in study was high, but not remarkable. He boasts that he succeeded in being one of the first nine of his class, 116 which, if there had been one more member, would have numbered ten! The college of those days con- tained more to disgust than to inspire a student of his tastes, and it has never ceased to be a wonder to me that classes could have been held at all to the then prevailing style of work. If President Butler has had time to consult the archives of Colby back to the records kept by Professor Hamlin, he may have revived recollections of episodes during which he was persomz not altogether gmm to the Faculty. Certain details not written would show, however, that the facts rather foreshadowed than prejudiced the fitness of the person in question for his present position. I have known college faculties to be in a condition appar- ently beyond improvement by any means of grace ex- cept those operated by graceless students. Readers may supply the connections for themselves. I merely observe that any progress which President Butler's official labors may produce at Colby will not be abso- lutely his first contribution of the kind to the college. President Butler's career as a student may well be used to illustrate the practically constant law that the rating which a college student gets in the average estimate of his associates pretty accurately represents the standing which he will have in mature life in the estimate of judicious men. The student who is tol- erated but despised, he who is understood by his acquaintances to be overrated, he who is held higher by those who know him best than by the mass, he who is conspicuous by force of merit that all concede, each will in all probability go through the world in the same relative position. Character rarely encoun- ters a more inerrant test than the scrutiny of college life. Alumni ten years or more from graduation will almost unanimously testify that the world has been regularly ratifying the tacit judgments of student days upon all their college mates, More than this, the career of gray-haired men is daily made or marred by evidence from their college record. I am not referring to what is technically known as 'frank in scholarship, but to the entire personal equation, for which there is no technical expression, an estimate of which, however, is stamped in the mind of every col- lege man in connection with each of his fellows. What a man shows himself to be in the various rela- tions of college days, is a safe index as a rule of what he will remain in the end. The men who were stu- dents at Wate1'ville from '69 to '73 view the honorable and influential career of President Butler up to the present time as a consistent matter of course. As this sketch failed to start in the lines ofa chronicle, it would violate the dramatic unities to 117 digress into formal details of President Butler's lifeg nor is this necessary, since the enterprising newspaper press has made that service superfluous. It cannot be too forcibly said, however, that in drawing Nathaniel Butler from the West, Colby created a vacancy which is felt. No more conclusive evidence of a man's accrued value could be alleged than that he is missed from the maelstrom of men Whose vortex is Chicago. If there is a man of his age who is better known and more widely loved in the Mississippi Valley, I have not heard of him. Wfherever I go, within a radius of five hundred miles of Chicago, I meet men of prominence who speak with respect and esteem of Professor Butler. One of his former asso- cia.tes at the Illinois State University, at Champaign, tells me that the name of Professor Butler is held in almost fllial reverence by large portions of the people in that city. Both as a preacher and as a University Extension lecturer, his reputation in the principal towns of this central region has steadily enlarged. The present standing of the University Exten- sion enterprise at the University of Chicago is in great measure due to Professor Butler's tact and effi' ciency. No part of the scheme of the University has had more of President I-Iarper's devoted attention, but the work of Winning a place for the innovation was necessarily delegated. Conservative members of the Faculty, as well as indifferent people among whom it was necessary to create a demand for instruction, eyed the plan askance. During the first year of the experiment its most sanguine friends found little to sustain their hope of success. At the end of the ini- tial year Professor Butler was placed in charge. It would be too much to say that the formative and ex- perimental period in the history of this educational departure is already passed. Professor Butler's ad- ministration of the enterprise has at all events secured for it consideration and respect, both within and with- out tlie University, which it did not enjoy when he became Director. The fact that so much of this change is justly credited to Professor Butler explains Presi- dent Harper's strong desire that he should complete the work so auspiciously begun. We often tell college students that they should aim to be men first and professional men afterward. President Butler is a genial embodiment of that policy. His fitness to be a college President rests upon his symmetrical manhood. He is a first-rate specimen of a good citizen. Whatever is worthy in family and church and state has his spontaneous sympathy and support. Mrs. Butler, who was Miss Florence Reeves Sheppard, of Chicago, shares and IIS seconds his sympathies and his ambitions. President Butler's home, as well as his classroom, the pulpit and the lecture platform, will be a part of his equip- ment for educational and civic influences. The official duties which Professor Butler re- signed at Chicago were so largely administrative that I used to tell him his moral qualities were of no visible use. I have no tfears that any college Presi- dent will lack opportunity to exercise all the moral excellencies which he may possess. If there is a flaw in President Butler's armor it may be traced to one of his virtues. He may lack the dash of egotism which makes some men succeed by adhering to conviction even to the extreme of offending their best friends. His refinement and courtesy may relax his tenacity of purpose before he has carried his point in defiance of accusation by opponents that he is headstrong and stubborn and dictatorial. My prediction is, however, that without approach to this alternative, his discre- tion and diplomacy will make him a leader whom all the friends of Colby will delight to follow. He has large but just conceptions of what education should do and of what a college should be. May the stage of Colby's work to be hereafter associated with President Butler's name prove more prosperous and beneficent than any previous section of her history. ALBioN W. SMALL. ,.

It was all the fault of Professor Atticate, who had de- tained him after the eight o'clock recitation to tell him that he was ' cut out in Greek. He thought that Professor Atticate might have done this much more neatly he had begun by speaking of the high quality of Mr. VVyer's work at nrst and went on to say that it had gradually deteriorated till now it was not up to the standard. Wyer listened politely till the professor was through, then he ran down stairs two steps at a time whistling She never saw the streets of Cairo, just to let the professor know that he didn't care. The chapel bell was ringing more and more faintly, and by the door stood Sam, his black face as bright and cheerful as thebuttons on his new suit, beckoning to him to hurry. As he entered and went to his place in the sophomore seats, he was glad that he was not a freshman to be 'fwooded up. The president rose to give out the hymn and said: The service will be conducted by the Rever- iixifiili if 1 a ganna, , , 2 . . '-.ng-3.4.11 in fewer words, for il? 120 end Mr. Wyer, of Johnston, Class of '58. David gave a start of surprise, fdr there on the platform sat the last person in the world whom he-would have expected to see that morning-his father. 'Of course he was glad to see his father-who wouldn't be? But-and the thought almost vexed him this morning-what did his father mean by sur- prising him like this? By appearing before him in such an unceremonious fashion without a word or sign? It couldn't be that he suspected anything. But they were beginning the hymn, so he sang the words mechanically and read the responses with the others. 'i Then his father, Rev. Mr. Wyer, of johns- ton, rose to offer prayer. David Wyer did not hear a word of that prayer-his thoughts were too busy. The familiar voice carried him far away, home to Johnston. He saw the slender spire of his father's church rising from among green maple trees, the cozy white parsonage with green blinds and the rose bushes by the doorstep, the modest looking brown high- school building. Then came a confused recollection of commencement day, with its music and flowers, and of his old teacher's saying something to his father and mother about 'fsplendid record, make his mark -he could see their proud faces. He remem- bered his first glimpse of Colby, the campus with its green elms, the willows leading down to the river, the halls whose names he had not yet learned-how pleased he was with his own room in South College, just over the reading room, looking out on Memorial Hall and the river! He had done remarkably well that first term, but since then-well, he had always managed to look out for his own term bills. How could he help it if his rank wasn't so good as it used to be ? He had grown broader, he told himself, more willing to sacrifice self to the interests of his alma fmzfezc Then his fraternity wasn't very well repre- sented in certain lines. It made a good showing in general scholarship, but it needed to do a little better in athletics, and furthermore he had found a chance to do some outside work, which brought him in a little money for extras. His father knew of all these things and took pride in them, but he hadn't asked to see the term bills, and now his son was cut out in Greek. However, the worst, indeed, the only embarrassing feature of the case was the fact that his people, and all the neighbors, too, were determined to regard him as the bright particular star of the college. But how could he help it? Well, it would all come out now, and as likely as not they would call him a hypocrite, at any rate his father would look very grave'-he had such rigid notions of honor and all that sort of thing. The prayer was ended, the announcements read and 121 one after another the classes filed out. David Wyer walked straight up to his father and clasped his hand. Father, this is a surprise. Yes, David. I did not decide to go to the conven- tion at Gardiner till yesterday afternoon and then there was no time to write. I have only a few min- utes in town this morning, but on my way home I shall stay here several hours. And mother-she is well? Yes, she sent her love and wished me to tell you not to work too hard. We both feel that your health is of the hrst importance and that there is more dan- ger of your neglecting that than your work. Oh, I'm all right, father. They passed down the steps in silence. The father's eyes were intent on the familiar scene before him. Men and women were pouring into Champlin Hall, While a few others were wending their way to Coburn. A little group of men stood talking at the bill board, many more were running a race across the campus to the station where the train stood snorting and pufhng impatient to be off. Good-bye. I shall see you again to-morrow, -and his father was gone. David's head was in a whirl as he went up to his room. It had all passed so quickly that he had hardly realized the strain upon his nerves. He sat down to think it all over. He felt obstinate, stubborn, at war with himself, he hardly knew how. The opposing forces of his nature were struggling for the mastery. I will not be a book-worm, a chalky-faced, stupid digger ! l'cl be anything else hrst. Tottering on the brink of the grave at commencement day, or else doomed to a thin-chested, wretched existence for the rest of my life, a laughing-stock to all the fellows and the girls, too, for that matter. This was an eminently sensible thought, so he fol- lowed up his advantage., That isn't the kind of a fellow father admires, he would be disappointed, I know, to have me turn out like that. Held rather I wouldn't take an honor in college. This, too, was re-assuring. It isn't my fault if the folks at home have their heads full of the notion that I'm a great scholar. This was bad, bad, for when the mental mill gets to grinding out excuses it is safe to conclude that some- thing needs to be excused, But why have you deceived them ? This was dangerous ground. It was all nonsense, of course. So he turned in a new direction. 'fProfessor Atticate had no business to cut me out. It's all because he has a grudge against me. He never liked me from the Erst. He let Wilkins and Beverly pass and I've done better than they. I hate him. I'll slight his work from this time on. This was a brave resolution, but somehow it did not settle the thing. H What are you going to say to your father ? O, hang it all, he said aloud , ff it's a pretty mess. 122 I shan't try to straighten it out. Let affairs take their own course. As-if that were not the seed of the whole matter, his over-readiness to let affairs take their own course. He rose and went to the window. There was a little scrap of paper on the sill. Half unconsciously he unfolded it and read : Diagnosis of George Shepherd's case: An acute attack of ill-temper. Benignitas, I gr., Comitas, 1 gr. To be taken before retiring. EDITH SHEPHERD, M.D. -He smiled to himself as he read it. He knew that the girls at Ladies' Hall called his room-mate's sister The Doctor. It had seemed to him a good joke. Why, once he saw her almost faint away when a fel- low got hurt in the cane-rush. That slip of a thing the doctor ! He went to the mantel and took down her picture. Who knows but what she could prescribe for my case! he said. He turned the photograph over and read on the back : 'LA perfect woman nobly planned, To warn, to comfort, to command. One of the juniors had pencilled it there one day when he had happened in. Wyer was not a little surprised to think that Shepherd should have let the junior do it. He had not seemed at all offended. But it had irritated Wyer that the junior should have thought of those lines, for they were lines which he had believed it his own particular privilege to asso- ciate with Edith Shepherd. He had felt like saying: You juniors Mifziz you know everything, but he had decided that it would do no good, so he had kept still. I wonder whether I want to be warned, or com- forted, or commanded ?-a little of all three perhaps, he said to himself. The bell was ringing. It was time for her to be coming out from recitation. He would walk down with her. He happened out the door just as she passed. Miss Shepherd, he said, may I walk down with you? Certainly, she replied. He seemed ill at ease, and began the conversation by remarking what a pleasant day it was. Ye-es, she said. Then he noticed that it was rather cold and gray and wished that he had not vol- unteered the remark. He talked on rapidly about everything else but what was uppermost in his mind. He told himself that he couldn't jump right into it at first. It would be an awkward thing to do. But the farther they went the more awkward a thing it seemed. XfVhy hadn't he thought out beforehand how he should express him- self? Along freight train was passing and they had to wait for it. He was glad of the delay. The little doctor noticed his confusion and pitied him from the depths of her heart. They had almost reached the hall. There was only 123 a moment left. He must improve his opportunity. But what was he to say? Feeling that under such circumstances he who hesitates is lost, he plunged boldly into his subject. Dr, Shepherd, he said, 'fl want to consult you in your 'professional capacity. I shall be very glad to do what Ican for you, she said, and waited for him to go on. My case is a peculiar one, he continued in embar- rassment, then stopped again. Indeed l H she said, and there was more sympathy in her voice than he could have hoped for. What is it? He hesitated, but she was looking at him, and as a rational being he was bound to make some reply. It is-it is-the headache ! He was as much surprised, when he had said it, as she was. He had not dreamed that he was going to make that reply. My remedy, she said, and there was the least sus- picion of a twinkle in her eye, is smelling salts and hot-water bandages. just as they came up the walk, one of the freshmen girls opened the door and said : Excuse me, but we want you, Edith, so there was nothing for him to do but to say Good-morning and turn away. 4' Donkey ! he said to himself. I couldn't have made it worse if I had tried. Smelling salts and hot- water bandages! She might have despised me, though, if I had told her. Rev. Mr. VVyer was in excellent spirits when he walked across the campus with his son the next morning. A visit to his czlmzz 7lZIZf6 7' was a rare treat to him, for a poor country pastor like himself, with a son in college, could not afford many luxuries. First they went to the room in South College looking out upon the river and Memorial Hall. Here they sat talking for some time. The father naturally was in a retrospective mood and the son was only too glad that it was so. Then they went to the library, that Mecca to which the feet of the returning alumni are irresistibly drawn. To them it is a spot full of sweet and haunting memories. As potent as ever is the charm of the rows on rows of volumes. More beau- tiful than of old seems the scene beyond, when between them and their lost youth flow the years as swiftly as the Kennebec. It was quiet there that morning. A few of the juniors were making bibliographies, two or three freshmen were studying in the upper alcoves, and a senior stood by the magazine table glancing at the Ccfzfmjf. The librarian was busy at his desk, but not too busy to give the visitor a cordial welcome. David Wyer and his father passed from one alcove to another, talking of the changes which time had made at Colby. Finally they turned to go. Is Prof. Atticate busy at this hour? said lVIr. Vifyer to the librarian. I want to see him. He is an old friend of mine. No, you will find him in his room. 124 David Wyer's heart stood still for an instant. It had come at last. This was the course that affairs had taken. He had been wondering all along what he should say to his father, how he should acquaint him with the injustice and favoritism of Prof. Atticate, and with his own hard luck, and now there was no chance to say a word. But his father was saying, I shall not be more than fifteen minutes. I will meet you in your room, and was gone. David XfVyer went slowly to his room. Shepherd, his room-mate, sat at his desk writing an article and did not look up. In less than five minutes Wyer had worked himself up to a high pitch of indignation against the world in general and Prof. Atticate in particular.

Smith, the titles falling away that the man may be seen. His widest and most lasting fame is due to his spiritualpand patriotic songs. But Colby University and the city of Waterville have an added and special reason to cherish his memory. For exactly eight years, from january 1, 1834 to December 31, 1841, he was Act- ing Professor of Modern Languages in the College and pastor of the First Baptist Church in the town, and just before his death he made the College, by his will, the residuary legatee of his property. He was born in Boston, Mass., Gctober 21, 1808, under the sound of the Old North Church chimes, he has fondly added. After three years in the Eliot School, Boston, he prepared for college in the Boston Latin School, graduating in 1825. It was to him a ffgrateful experience that he won in the latter both the Franklin Medall' and, for an English poem, a gold medal. He at once entered Harvard College and was graduated in 1829. In this class were several men who afterward attained great if 5' 127 distinction, one of whom was Oliver VVendell Holmes. In a very brief autobiographical sketch, prefixed to his Volume of Poems gf Hc11ze mzri Cozmffjy, Dr. Smith has spoken of him as his congenial and beloved class-mate, affirming that in the progress of seventy years, lacking one, their mutual friendship was never abated nor their tender fellowship lessened, This friendship has on each side found exquisite expression in song. Among Dr. Smith's published poems nothing is better than that in memory of Dr. Holmes. From college he went at once to Andover Theo- logical Seminary, graduating in 1832. There, he says, he 'fwrote the hymn Jlfljf Comzlfjf, 'Z is W' thee, The flf07f7ZZ.7Zg' Lzlght is Izffealazrzg, ' and many others, learned four languages and read through Mr. Marsh- man's Chinese Grammar,-a vast quarto, nearly as large as a family Bible. After a year of editorial work in Boston he came to Waterville. In january, 1842, he removed to Newton Centre, Mass., where he resided until his death, November 16, 1895. He was there pastor of the Baptist Church twelve years and a half, and for seven of these years was editor ofthe Chf'z'sz'z'ezh Review. After resigning his pastorate he served fifteen years as editorial secretary of the American Baptist Missionary Union, preaching almost con- stantly as stated supply. To the end of his life he was abundant in fruitful literary labors. Of books he wrote Lgfe qf Rev. joseph Gffrzfloh, Lyric Gems, Roch qt Ages, flJZ'5'5Z.07Z!Z7jl Sketches, Rmhhles in 1Wz's5z'eh Fieleis, and The 1:7 z'.vz'e1jf ryfflfezazzfozz, Jlffrzss. C950 pp. octavoj. For the Ency- clopedia Americana he made translations from the H German Conversations-Lexicon, amounting to fully one thousand printed pages. His 'K articles for re- views, magazines, and newspapers have been almost without number. He added to our Psalmody about one hundred and fifty hymns. The .PXd!771Z-Sf, for thirty years the current hymn book of the United States Baptists, was prepared by him in connection with Rev. Baron Stow, D.D. On a visit to Waterville a few years ago he re- marked, as he was taken to the guest-room in the P1'6SlClC11lIlS House Qnow the Dunn Houseuj, this is the room in which I did my work on The Psczlmzlvzf' He was to the last as ready to serve the public with his tongue as with his pen. Even when arrested in Boston by the sudden death-stroke he was onqhis way to Readville to preach the next day. His fame has been largely due to the hymn In-1! Cezmifgf, 'f is qfrhee, but some of his other hymns have equal if not greater 128 merit and would have given him a high place among the sweet singers.

He kept himelf in close sympathetic relation with living men and was ready to respond to every call for a song on a public occasion. A large part of his poems are thus of local, temporary, occasional in- terest. His social nature was rich and deep. He excelled in conversation,-humorous, racy, instructive, copious, drawing out and giving out, enlivening and enriching. A visit in his cottage-home was a charm that ever after continued to charm. Mrs. Smith was his fit companion from the time of their marriage in 1834, and still survives him. They were lovers from the beginning. In 1875 they visited Europe together and again in 1880, when they extended their journey to eastern Asia, visiting their son, Dr. D. A. W. Smith, President of the Karen Theological Seminary, and various missionary fields. Dr. Smith kept to the end a remarkable vitality. He was ruddy of countenance, young of heart, ready for work, and full of genial good cheer. His whole past life seemed to live on in him as an ever present. Only two years ago he sent a sketch of his Waterville pastorate to be read at the 75th anniversary of the church, and it was a minute, exact, unblurrecl photo- graph of men, women and events. His was a rich and rare life. G. D. B. PEPPER. QUB11IilEtIifQ. 3 il A knock was heard at a student's door. Come in, wishing callers were fewer. Can I borrow a little tobacco ? Oh!

'K It was Waterville College in my day, but I call myself a Colby man just the same. Great times we used to have too. Seeing that the judge Qfor such he Wasj was in a reminiscent mood, I offered him a cigar, and pro- ceeded to draw him out by alluding to the famous cannon escapade in which Ninety-six and Charlie Turner figured so prominently. We had a cannon racket in my day, said the Judge, as he slowly lighted his cigar. There was just one cannon in town then, and we got it upon the campus one night, and gave it a hot time too. We planted it out back of South College, and Bred chains and rocks at a house across the river. Of course we let the citizens come after their cannon when they wanted it, but we had enjoyed the night's fun so much that only a few nights later we sacked the cannon up again. Next time the citizens hid it, but we found it. For 519 131 two weeks they did their best to put it where we could not find it, but we were too much for them. All this time the Faculty was trying to stop our sport, but they were unsuccessful. One morning after a celebration we looked for the cannon, but it was gone. We searched for it diligently, but in vain. For weeks and months we were on the lookout for it, but it never was discovered. Some twenty years after I graduated I happened to meet young 1, who used to tutor in my day. We got to talking over the old times, and I mentioned the cannon. ' Now,' said he, -'I don't suppose you know what became of that, so I will tell you. About nine o'clock one evening Prex. called at the house where I roomed, and wanted me to go with him. We went up toward the' College, and then turned off into the pasture, which, you re- member, occupied a large territory back of the pres- ent location of the station. The pasture was pretty well grown up to alders and spruce, and we had hard work to pick our way through. At length we came to a small opening, and right before us I saw what appeared to be a grave. Iwas considerably surprised, but my surprise was intensified when Prex. handed me a spade, which he brought from a clump of bushes, and told me to dig the grave deeper. I obeyed, for I was only a tutor, and Prex. was not to be fooled with. I worked for nearly an hour, during which time'Prex. was reconnoitering. I could see 'him stealing from one clump of bushes to another, as if he were a fugitive escaping from justice. Once I thought I saw a man emerge from a thicket and ad- vance toward Prex. You may rest assured that strange fancies were running through my head. Soon I heard the crushing of bushes accompanied by faint grunting and puffing, and, secreting myself in a clump of alders, I awaited developments. I was satished that something dark and mysterious was being done, for when the midnight workers came within sight I could see that they were nervous, and frequently re- traced their steps and looked cautiously around. When they came very near, I recognized Prex. and the four professors, and you may judge of my sur- prise when I saw that they were dragging the cannon toward the grave. I now understood the situation, and advanced from my position to aid the professors, T32 for they were having a hard time. Old Dr. X. was fat, you remember, and he was puffing like a man-of- war. The old cannon is still sleeping over back of the station, and I shall never forget the night it was plantedf 4 The judge knocked the ashes off his cigar and re- sumed. Did you ever hear of the gift we presented to Bowdoin? he asked. I assured him that I was ignorant on that point. Well, he said, 'fin the President's ofrice there used to be a bust of President Champlin. One night some of us fellows got the bust, packed it, and directed it to Bowdoin College. We wrote a letter to the Bowdoin faculty stating that we, the Colby faculty, desired to present a gift to that institution. Three days later President Champlin received a letter from the President of Bowdoin thanking him for the valuable gift. The good President comprehended the situation at once, but he could never summon sufficient courage to ex- plain matters to the s-ister college. So to-day the bust of President Champlin stands in the Walker Art Building among the busts of other eminent men. Here I had to leave the judge, but I went away thinking of the good old days.

We assure our readers that our translation, both in spirit and lan guage, is a vast improvement over the original German versionj The moon looks down from starr skies Y , The wind sneaks through the boughs, Beneath them sit a youth and maid On the steps of the Palmer House. The night is hushed, they do not speak, 'Tis bliss enough to sit and gaze, He notes the soft curve of her cheek, Her dainty looks and Winning ways. A sudden change comes o'er his mien, He springs back from her side, She looks around, but nought is seen, Though the door stands open wide. It was no form of flesh and blood, That came from out the door. He left as fast as ever he could, He'l1 ne'er be seen there more. She sees it allfa terrible smell From every Window and door I Had issued as from the depths of Hades, And parted them evermore. The moon makes haste to hide its face And Wrap its nose in a cloud, The wind sweeps by at a fearful pace And shrieks Well, I'1l be blowed ! She tries to get her breath and run, She reaches the smoky hall, The girls have gathered, every one, They have smelled it each and all. They searched, one here, another there, In attic, chamber, hall and cellar. They swore it should go hard with him If they could find the guilty feller. At last upon the cause they came, They knew not what to sayg Old rubbers were cast to the furnace flame The Dzzlchmmz was going zzwzzy. A rapping here, a tapping there Tells neighbors far and wide, That they are going, Frau and Herr, To leave their Ereside.

And they went off together, Morosely, I must say. They want me to consider The merits of their frats., They eye each other grimly, Quite like a pair of cats. just now they live like princes, And fare like kings and queens, But later in the season Perhaps-they eat cold beans. They sit down on the mossy stone, Unmindful of the violet nigh, They think that they are all alone, Witli no one round to spy.

Well, let me see. Did I ever tell you how Dally went to the fire ? Never did? Well, then I'll tell you that. i 'Twas the night of the night-shirt parade, about the middle of june, I should say, and decidedly warm, even at midnight. After the parade we boys had been amusing ourselves changing the position of some of the landmarks f' ' f' I' I on the campus, when about one o'clock I ' I we caught sight of a blaze over the tops of the houses toward the upper end of the town, The whole crowd started on the run for what looked like an unusually fine fire. But before we had gone far we found that the ire was some distance out into the country. Most of the boys, one by one, turned back until four of us, Hop and Arthur and Dally and I, found ourselves alone on the outskirts of the city. ii' I Dally wanted to turn back too, but the rest of us said thefire was only a little way off across the fields and we were not going to have our run for nothing. The peculiar thing was that Dally was bashful about going back alone. You see he was all undressed when he heard there was to be a parade, and he didn't stop to put on any clothes under his nightshirt. The rest of us had taken our togas off before the fun on the campus began. Dally didn't want to stop to dress and so he very discreetly kept his on. And there he was, a quarter of a mile from the bricks, in nightshirt, glasses, cap and shoes. And somehow he didn't seem anxious to go back through the streets alone. I suppose he felt as if our company protected him from the ff blows and buffets of the world to which he had so much surface exposed. At any rate when we started off across the fields Dally discon- solately followed. The first field was all right, but when we climbed the fence into the second we found ourselves in a regular jungle of bushes and thorns. Dally's night- shirt caught on the brambles, his bare legs were scratched and bruised, his glasses tumbled off. When the rest of us had struggled through the tangle we missed him, but a plaintive voice told us that he was near and soon we caught sight of his white nightshirt in the darkness of the thicket, shining like a good deed in a naughty world. We thought the worst was over now and pressed eagerly on. We found ourselves next in a hayfield where the grass was up to our waists and dripping with dew. In two minutes we were wet to the skin from the waist down. We felt as if we were wading in three feet of water. Dally didn't like the feeling of the wet nightshirt' flapping against his legs, so he carried out the idea of wading by gathering it up around his Waist, girding up his loins like the prophets of old. The rear View thus presented was irresistibly suggestive of the maternal slipper, and no doubt if Dolly's mam' had been there, she would have applied that instrument vigorously. We waded on, through Held after field of the same kind, while from each hilltop the fire seemed farther off than ever. When we started, it was not more than half a mile awayg now it was at least two I miles ahead. Daily would have gone back long ago but for the thought of the thicket behind and the terrors of a solitary passage through the city streets in a costume rather more suited to the time than the place. At last, the hayfields came to an end, and we comforted ourselves with the thought that our passage would now be easier at least, Dally began to grow cold, so Hop lent him his coat, and the upper half of the nightshirt was eclipsed. The lower half still flapped disconsolately about Dally's legs. il , 4 A .

X 'f' The next thing we came to was a pasture, whose surface was a succession of rocks, hollows, and mounds, all covered with a deceptive growthaof ferns and moss. In the dark, it was impossible to pick our way, and every now and then Dally's white nightshirt would disappear from sight, as he stubbed his toe on a rock, and pitched headlong into an unsuspected - I., hollow. But he always emerged again a little more soiled and bedraggled, but still good-natured toward everything except inanimate nature. And so we kept on until the twelve labors of Her- cules were nothing to the difliculties we had con- quered. At last, after hours Qseeminglyj of travel- ing, we came to a road! And right across this road, twenty rods back, was the burning house, still blaz- sl l llli y li illlll fl ll H ll l7lllllll,lliil1llillll' ing brightly. Triumphantly we started up the drive- way, but there, in the light of the fire, seated on a pile of furniture, Dally caught sight of a girl. His delicate modesty spoke at once. Probably, the girl's apparel was not much more abundant than Dally's own, but the outer layer at least was more conven- tional, and Dally could not bear the thought of em- I barrassing her. So he sent the rest of us along up the drive-way, While he squatted down in the tall grass by the roadside and rested from the labors of his journey. As we sat onia log before the blazing house, and questioned the family, who sat around silently watching the destruction of their home, we could see Dally's round cheeks and nicely parted hair peeping at us above the tall grass, while the Hrelight shone and glistened on his glasses. Before long we were astonished to see three more boys coming up the drive-way. Hop remarked that he would not have believed there were three more such fools in college. These last three had come by the road instead of the fields, but if their path had been smoother than ours, they vowed they had come twenty miles. When they caught sight of Dally's head above the top of the grass, they stopped to inves- tigate, and, finding it was Dally, they took pity on his forlorn condition and persuaded him that, with the coat over his night-shirt, his costume was perfectly modest and conventional. Thus urged, Dally over- came his scruples, and all four joined us on our log. Whether the inhabitants of that neighborhood were accustomed to wear similarly simple toilets on their evening rambles, or misfortune had benumbed the senses of the recent inmates of the burning dwelling, not a Word or glance betrayed their curiosity at Dally's unique get-up, or Wounded his sensitive feelings. One thing did cut him a littleg contrary to all his past ex- perience with the fairer sex, the girl paid absolutely no attention to his presence. I In the pocket of Hop's coat, Dally had found a cigar. He lighted it, and there he sat on the log, his bare legs stretched out to the hre, the steam rising from the wet flaps of his nightshirt, the cigar' in his mouth, his face the picture of peace after pain. - x sifv' V x y ' I 39 I'm here upon a visit, To Brother jack you know, He's been 'away at college About a year or so.

Of Punch without his mask, And tales more melancholic One surely need not ask. But worse than all unmasking Behind the circus scenes, And sadder than the sorrows Of tinsel kings and queens, 140 A fate of sighs prolific, Abject and pitiful, It is to help to edit The COLBY ORACLE. There is no calling sadder, More lashed by fortune's ga Than chasing funny notions, To salt their fleeting tails. les Q Enpigumurnls Qrvam. I dreamed I crossed dark Styx's bank With Charon to old Pluto's shore, And all unseen I lingered by And listened as I heard them try The spirits the boatmen ferried oier. A sulphury glow around us shone From the fiery lake below, As Colonel Page came trembling up, And thus began the show. Old Pluto gazed upon him, And he at Pluto gazed, I-Ie saw the imps around him, The lake that 'neath him blazed, I-Ie smelt the burning sulphur, Saw Pluto's forked tail : - His legs gave way beneath him, His lips sent forth. a wail. I say, old boy, he thus did quake, 9? I I don't just like this fiery lake, I g-guess I wasn't made to bake,- I'm going back-there's some mistake. Oh, ho! said Pluto, you're just the lad I've wanted ever and ever so bad. You were always a sporty man at college, Neglected yourlessons, cared nothing for knowledge You drank too much cider, with co-ords did flirt, But now I have got you, donit cry if I hurt. I'1n a little short of brimstone I fear, And the tone of his voice made Colonel feel queer But sit right down by my cozy fire. As Colonel obeyed, the impish choir r Struck up 'f I'm a Son of a Gun for Beerf Then jerry and Gerry, a timid pair, Came trembling up through the sultry air, While Jerry murmured as if in prayer, 7 O Beulah Land, sweet Beulah Land ! And then he stopped as if his sand Was surely failing him, but no, He sighed in faltering accents low, Despite old Pluto's warning frown : She used to go and walk with me, And sweet communion there held we. I'd gently take her by the hand, And dream 'twas heaven's border land. And choked with weeping he sat down. Old Pluto smiled a fearful smole, He winked a wunk to a demon droll, And down, far down in the fiery hole, Poor jerry and Gerry went swiftly flying. Said Pluto, I'll give them some reason for crying. As the lambent waters closed again, His Majesty gave a horrible whoop, And the demons joined in the rousing strain, jerry and Gerry are both in the soup.' But judge how much I was taken aback When I saw that the next to come was Mac. Yet here he was with his usual smile Seeking old Pluto to beguile. Said he, in his own retiring way, As on his heart his hand he laid, Why, all I did, you blooming jay, Was to sing that 'Poor Little Country Maid' From morn till dewy eve I sang, From eve till morn again, Until the Profs. in spasms fell, M O'erpowered by the mournful strain. Old Pluto's eyes flashed forth his ire, He made him dance on coals of fire g And as full sprightly, high and low, He shook the light fantastic toe, In punishment for all his faults, The demon choir drew 'round the fire And struck up 'fThey're Teaching McFadden to Waltz. But soon the awful chorus seemed to tire, And went to put more brimstone on the fire, When Brooks appeared, all dressed in his football gear 3 ' In either eye there shone a glistening tear. In the noble game of football I was skilled, But I was also very, very careless. Full four-score men I know that I have killed, And many's the poor chap that I've left hairless. I As thus he told his exploits bold, As thus he made his plea, Old Pluto was struck, said he I-Iere's luck, I-must have you to help me. So he set him up on a cake of ice, On the banks of that sulphurous pool, And there he played pitch with the sinners, In a manner refreshingly cool. Then Dally came up like a sweet little girly, With his boots well blacked and his hair cut curly. Said he: All the ladies were stuck on me And I used to lead them on, Then I'd go off and get another And leave them all forlorn. Full sixteen hearts for me did break But still my conscience did not wake. At last I met the prettiest girl,- Perhaps she wasn't a dandy l She lived 'way down at the'end of the town, So it wasn't exceedingly handy. Still about every evening, - As the shadows would softly fall, I walked and talked with that damsel That seemed to me best of all. I I know it was awfully wicked And naw I am sorry 'twas done, But still, you old Mister Pluto, I can just tell you 'twas fun. They all were shocked to see his guile, And told him he might wait awhile, Before the gloomy fate he learned That his misdeeds had richly earned. There came a pause. Are they all in? Old Pluto asked with a horrid grin 3 When looming up through the misty pall I recognized the form of Hall. But Hall was calm and cool enough As he strolled along the way, Or stopped to scrap with a shade or two, And watch the spirits play. Then Pluto's brow frowned darkly As he recognized the man. The air grew hotter, hotter yet, And I looked 'round for a fan. Said Pluto : Long I've looked for you. Oh, yes, I know you well, And nothing now can change your fate, Your tale you need not tell. You are the man that was made to go To the Freshman reception, whether or no. Beside my reception, you find that was slow. Take him, my imps, he added low. But Hall lit into Pluto In his good old-fashioned style, And Brooksy bucked the centre For a quarter of a mile. The rest of us then gathered 'roundh From pool and sulphury bay And got into the interference In a rattling kind of way. We carried all before us In those regions dark and evil, And Pluto grim and all his imps Ran like the very devil. Then ere we sought out Charon, In his boat to cross again, We joined our merry voices In that grand old sweet refrain : 'AM,0tdl dkakdl ditaltofl VITK17 EU-ri To U lIV977,lL!Ll Colby, Ninety-eight!

The Association at once proceeded to the discus- sion of applicants for membership. The first name proposed for admission was that of C. B. Fuller. In Title suggested by Prof. Taylor. self for membership in our order, can only be hinted at here. In the early stages of his course he ranked among the pluggers of his class, While society he knew not. I gave him up as lost! But, alas, what a change- ! PROP. TAYLOR Qinterruptingj: I do not think, gentlemen, that we ought to put a premium on neglect of i H PROF. ROBERTS finterruptingj : Got anything more to say about this man Fuller? If you have- C. lVl.: Order, gentlemen, order. It was with considerable difficulty that the Chief Multiplier with his gavel restored order and refused to allow further discussion on the man. A vote was taken amidst the wrangling of the honorary members and Fuller was rejected by a single ballot. PROF. TAYLOR: Gentlemen, I vividly recall how gratifying it would have been to me to have become a member of this order when passing through the or- deals just previous to a Benedictine life. And I can- not now see the wisdom of refusing the blessings of this organization to men who desire them, because I could not enjoy .them myself. H. W. Foss would like to become a Benedictine and I offer you his name for consideration. It is true he has not as yet found his Beatrice, but our order would no doubt be a great assistance to him. PROF. BAYLEY: Chief Multiplier, I rise to second heartily both the sentiment and the name as proposed by Bro. Taylor. This Foss'ill undoubtedly reflect great credit on our order. To briefly trace out his genealogy, Foss claims descent from ancestors whose remains have recently been found deep buried beneath the Cambrian Rocks. Mr. Foss clearly re- calls the time when he lived at home with Pa and Ma upon the paternal estate near the North Pole of the earth, which at that time was where the South Pole is now. He tells us that in those times the earth was reversed in its movements, that people used to walk backward and talk backward, that the planets of the solar system used to bump and thump against each other before they had chosen their several courses. Foss saw that the arrangement was not good, and I undertook a readjustment. One day, as he was carry- ing the North Pole to its proper place, his feet slipped on the Arctic ice, and the pole was lost in the Northern Seas. For countless ages he lived the life of a mer- maid in his search for the lost prize, but it has never been found. And I tell you, gentlemen, we cannot afford to disregard the application of this grand old Fossil. G. P. : I can not approve of this gambling on futures and I shall vote in the negative. Strange as it may seem Foss also was rejected. WQI.: I wish to present to you to-night the names of two very desirable men, H. C. Hanscom and H. E. Hamilton, who seek admission to our order, and I now move you that they be accepted by acclamationf' But no one arose to second the mo- tion or to offer a word in discussion. The Chief Multiplier then declared the names of both men re- jected. When the course of the Association was announced to Hanscom, it is said he did not sleep for the nightdf while Mr. Hamilton fainted dead away, calling loudly : Bring me my Fan-my Fan ! At thispoint the deliberations of the assembly were interrupted by a loud knock on the outer door. The Mighty Mystifier, having received strict orders from Chief Multiplier, very cautiously opened the door, when some one in a cracked voice was heard to say, To become a member of your order of Bene- Slept in the morning instead. X dictines has been the hope of my life for a long time. I considered it of such grave importance that I dared not trust any man with my application, but have come in person. Will you throw open your doors and receive with outstretched arms one who has at heart the interests of this society more than any other ? Here the door was closed and securely barred, and the M. M., turning to the C. M., said, Chief Multiplier, I-I. S. I-Iall, of '96, with pleading voice and weeping eyes, beseeches us to admit him to member- ship in our order, what shall we do ? PROF. TAYLOR: 'f Chief Multiplier, inasmuch as our order has as yet not sufficiently matured for the admission of the gentler sex, I move you that we pass a resolution advising Mr. Hall to connect himself with the 'Woman's AuXiliary,' which, I understand, is being formed in this college, as an aid to our Ben- edictine Order. PROF. ROBERTS : I wish you people would get down to business before long and see if you can't do something. In order for our Association to grow, we have got to have some good men. Now, I'm going to propose the name of Richard Pat Collins, and I shall feel disappointed if this man is not unani- mously elected without as word of discussion. But hark! It is cock-crow alreadyn Come, come, let's get to business quick g it is almost time to adjourn. C. M.: Oh no, no, Prof. Roberts, that's Baby Tooker that you hear. Don't be alarmed. I In spite of Roberts's efforts Collins was only ac- cepted on probation, with the understanding that his case was far from hopeless. G. P. : Chief Multiplier, I have been requested to present the name of a reverend gentleman of '96 for membership in our order, Fred W. Peakesf' M. M. : f'I object. Never in the history of our College has a class been so imposed upon as '96 has by this man. I-Ie has wilfully and with malicious in- tent violated the sacred rites of feasting and hos- pitality. It is evident that he would never be a good provider, and I' move that we banish him forever from our sacred circlefl CCarried.j W. I.: There is one man whom we can hardly fail to accept. I propose, without further preamble, the name of Mr. F. M. Padelfordf' ' PROF. BAYLEY: I do not think we can accept Padelford. I have three charges to bring against him. First: I understand he had the effrontery to ask Prof. Black who was Emperor of Rome when Pike Hrst entered college. Second: I-Ie told Prof. Marquardt that his jokes were more modern than the deluge of Noah. Third: He asked Stetson whether he took Evans on his knee when he wanted to talk to him. He evidently has a flippant mind, and I there- fore move that we lay him on the table. M. M.: I-Ie has been as delinquent as Peakes, and I second that motion. QCarried.j PROF. ROBERTS! Gentlemen, you are making rapid progress, I must say. Not a single name ac- cepted. I predict the rapid downfall of our Order. But I will make one more desperate effort to blot out the disgrace of your shameful action to-night toward the coming Benedictines. I put before you the name of one more man, and if rejected I shall sever my alle- giance to what should be made the noblest order on earth. I now present to you the name of Levi P. VVyman, of '96. M. M., PROF. BAYLEY, PROF. TAYLOR, W. I., G. P., all z Chief Multiplier ! Down comes the gavel three times in rapid suc- cession and Order, gentlemen, order. Mighty Mys- tifier has the has the floor. ' M. M. : ff Gentlemen, I am certain that I voice the sentiment of those present when I say that Levi is the only coming Benedictine of ,96 who has recog- nized his obligations. Beneath his roof we claimed the rites of hospitality, and sumptuously did he feast us. Therefore I believe that he justly claims recog- nition from our Order. And I now move you that we accept him unanimously. PROF. ROBERTS, W. I., G. P., PROF. BAYLEY, PROF. TAYLOR, all: Chief Multiplier! Order, order, came from the chair. Prof, Roberts has the floor. PROF. ROBERTs: I rise to second the motion, 1' and to further move you that Wyma11 be found at once and brought here to make his speech, according to the proper custom in such organizations. Although Prof. Bayley reminded Roberts that this was not his elocution class, the motion was speedily carried, and Wyman was found and ushered into the presence of the august assembly. PROF. ROBERTS: Now, Mr. Wyiiian, go right up on that platform and make us a five-minute speech, and use the natural manner, too. IVyman's knees shook, but he nevertheless obeyed, although at first he seemed a little confused. Wx'MAN's SPEECH. I 'fFriends, husbands, Benedictines, ye call me chief, and ye do well to call him chief, who came not here to talk.

Give me a match. In other words : VVhen all deeds shall have been accomplished and recorded, when history shall have been written, when men shall no longer think the thoughts of Hubbard after him, when the ghoul- ful growl of Watkins shall be no longer heard, when the ghastly wail of Peakes shall cease to cleave the as a monument of the created past, the glory of this midnight airg when time and eternity shall merge in renowned order of brotherhood. one common chaotic mass all now existent things, Audience completely overpowered.

Somewhere a king 'rnong men he acts his part, For all would tru st and honor such as he, Free from deceit and from the love of pelf.

The one rode down to win the fight, And they say he was mighty glad to. The other rode out one deep dark night, Because, alas ! he had to. Now Richard was a Freshman stout, The bravest in the land, And always took when he went out A pistol in each hand. And oft to his admiring friends His deeds he would relate, How he'd murdered one and wounded five And fired at ninety-eight. . 152 One evening as Dick strolled along, Like any ancient knight, A dreaming of his lady love And his last bloody hght, A whoop resounded through the air, His savage foes had come 5 They didn't give him time to swear Nor e'en to draw his gun, But quickly rushing on the youth, Begirt him all around, And there despite his mighty strength, They bore him to the ground. A carriage stood beside the curb, They hustled him inside, And said, Now, sonny, come with us Weill have a pleasant ride. The driver leaped upon the seat, The steeds he madly lashed, And through the city's crowded streets NVith lightning speed they dashed. In fact the horses hurried so, Urged on by Whip and shout, That ere they'd gone ten miles from home They Were all tuekered out. When the kind-hearted boys perceived That there was too much load, They made you-ng Richard get right out And left him in the road. The steeds thus lightened of their freight Rushed fiercely on their way, And though the driver pulled the reins He could GQ not make them stay. Alas! for poor Dick Shannon, The noble and the brave. No mode of travel now is left Save that which nature gave. So back to VV'aterville he tramped Beneath the midnight skies, The Sophomores had had the fun And Dick, the exercise. , :ra- E wa fX 'jf mfwrwxs:-is-QL ? - M - .

Would it not be well to alter the card on the opening page to read more accurately : published occasionally during the college year or vacation, by the editors of various college publications. 2. While we commend the system which, like the sermons of Roger de Coverlyis chaplain, gives us an epitome of the best literary work of the day in the college world, we would suggest that it would save both time and expense if the Echo simply gave the references instead of the laborious method of copying in full. 3. We hardly think it advisable to print the same item more than twice in an issue, even if it does fill up the columns.

URING his recent visit to Washington, Prof. Rogers announced to the men of science who were there assembled, the startling re- sults of his recent experiments with the X-rays. Prof. Rogers was keen enough to see that substances so dense as the brains of the class of ,QS would afford excellent subjects for his experiments. The resulting discoveries have electrified the scien- tific world. The following is the most complete account of .Prof Rogers's address which we were able to obtain. His statements were illustrated by stereopticon views. GENTLEMEN :--Thus far it has been thought that the brain is always found in the top of the head. But it is not so. C Al- Dt and myself have discovered a new law of nature. VVe have found that the brain may be anywhereyin the infernal-no, no, I mean internal regions-organs, and in that way we tiC:Cole. D:Durgan. ihfpslznnlngg big '3BI'IB1TfgB1I,B Earns. 9 3' 162 have found brains in several men who were not thought before to have any. This explains a good many things never explained before. ff Having noticed some very peculiar characteristics about my sophomore class,I turned the X-rays on them and I got some remarkable pictures. The most peculiar case is that of Mr. Wilson. I took an X-ray picture of his head, and got no results at all- absolute blank. Then I tried the other end and got his feet. There was a peculiar gray X matter on one side that at first was ll? deceptive, but upon minuter examination 'gf' X I found that it was his brain. That ex- 15933, plained clearly why he rattled his feet so . in class, when he was studying. Isup- I pose he couldn't help it. Didn't seem to be the proper ratio though between the rattling and the studying. IQuery:- Do rattling feet always indicate brain 1 il action Pl Hope I haven't misunderstood my students too much in the past. , We will now proceed from the feet up. Next man was in the junior class. I-Ie had a peculiar outline to his lower limbs. Thus far it had been thought that they had been warped by the sun. He is a veryiconceited man, and I thought there must be something abomina- ble-abdominal-no, no, abnormal about his brain. But I made a remarkable discovery on this man. The brain is sometimes immaterial, and sometimes it may be fountl outside the body in the vicinity of it. Such brains alfwayst have an antipathy against hard work. They can-be discovered only by the X-rays. I took a picture of the lower half of him and you see what I , 1 fff f , got 5 that dark shadow .be- .f, F i, tween-the knees is the brain. i 'lf ' The shape of his legs is pro- JUN 1 ' :ill y ,K With duced, by the very bad swell- .ilhi Q: ' f h' b ' H 'H 7? zimgvf mg o is rain ere we wi I, 4-:yzw , .1 f Q V . f wa.. .aa , . yy makea digressionqto note the 'iv .Ei ' fact that the higher up the . , ex. L 115 1 r, brain is, the more intelligence ' is found, and 'ZlZb'E .vanizz with conceit. That's Latin 5 I do knowsome Latin. I The next man had a .centrally located brain, betrayed by aimarked enlargement on the outside. 1 fNote :-A very good business mang managed track athletics this yearj This protrusion caused a good deal of difficulty in finding his brain, since there was such a- thickness for the X-rays to go through. I finally overcame this difficulty by turning him back to, though he was so stuck on his face that it was hard work to per- suade him to do so. At last I found his brain in the middle of his stomach, and this is confirmed by the fact that he always has so much to say right after dinner. It is the result of pressure, f X X fi ,yi X W I found another peculiar man in my sophomore class-Mr. Wellnian. I noticed one day that he didn't seem to have any brains. fNote: a very tall man with big feetj Couldn't answer a single ques- ition. I took a shadowgraph of him-most appropri- it ate kind to take-and f f couldn't find a thing. When the sophomore 5 gn s came in, one of them answered her own ques- , tions and the ones I had , ' ,alqff X V' asked VVellman too. I fff turned on the X-rays and found two brains, both near her heart. I-Ie thought so much of her-no, no, he thought of her so much that actual transference of brains took place. There is reason to suppose that this frequently takes place with immaterial brains. Expect to find many similar cases among our students. One such remarkable case occurs in the Senior Class. His name is Collinsg he lost his brain in his Freshman year. There is one more remarkable case similar to those that have been spoken of, but entirely different. The man's name is Holmes, he is in the junior Class. His brain is very small and insignificant, but what A there was I found in his lower . jaw. Uoke : rolls it as a sweet morsel under his tongue, M! that's why I suppose it's al- ? , Ways in motionj Allow me to X ! say that this man is an excep- f tion to the general rule that the higher up we go the more ' X intelligence is found. Thisis the exception which proves the rule. If it wasn't for this exception the rule wouldn't be proved. There- fore, this rule is proved. I needn't say that this also proves the previously stated vice versa rule. I 'fl next tried to get Woodman's brain, but I couldn't get any results. I found it impossible to get any ideas through his head, but it was very easily penetrable by the X-rays. It is a well-known fact to this Scientific Board that X-rays go through wood very easily. Draw your own conclusions. We'll pass from these simple cases to a more complicated one. I have often noticed that C and D are apt to get their data just alike. When they hadiexamples to do they used to get strikingly similar results. Remarkable coincidence. At last ,I discovered the reason. C and D used to be around a good deal when I was taking X-ray pictures, and when they got in line the X-rays would throw a shadow on C's brain 'of what was in D's brain. Very wonderful discovery. 7 K- After a good deal of diffi- , if ,nj culty I got a shadowgraph 'K of such a case. Nobody else ever got anything like y V it.

E132 ln the classic halls, of Colby,- ln the room of Cosine Warren, X Where the Freshmanls heart is broken By his trials with mathematics, Thirty brave-hearts had assembled, At the call of big chief Shannon. We have met here, said the Chieftain, To discuss a question weighty, Met to blend our tears together, And to seek some vengeance dire O'er our haughty persecutors. t' Freshmen, no one is so sordid, As to realize not the injuries We have suffered at the base hands Of the Sophomores, relentless. They have swiped us at receptions, Broken our toes, and paid the bills not, Poured ice-water down our columns, From the top windows in the college. But, my brethren, we're not wholly Unprotected and forsaken. YVe have friends about the campus, VVho will don the war-paint for us 3 Always is there perfect concord Ellsaai uf Hp: Erahea 9 5' 166 'Twixt .the Juniors and the li reshmen, But a hostile strife and deadly, ,Twixt the Sophomores and the juniors Therefore, let us form a Union, Make a mighty Combination, Through the medium of cider, And a pledge of lasting friendship. Tres bien! said Ee-ls. the slippery, lust the thing ! said Warren, junior, 4' W'e will have a perfect break-down l Said the dauntless Israel-Putnam. All the Freshmen, at the council, Grunted guttural assentation, Till the sage of many winters, Bowed beneath his weight of wisdom, Rose, and stood, and spake among them Oh, my children, l beseech you, Bring not here the baleful liquor, Bring not here the fire-water To work havoc in the college. juniors all are prone to tipple, Let us hesitate to tempt them With the maddening juice of apple, Rather let us smoke the peace-pipe, And make glad their ardent spirits' By a soothing stew of oysters, in the Restaurant at Hagar's. All revered the words and wisdom Of the sage and prophet, Martin. Straightway then rose Chieftain Shannon: 4' Thou hast spoken well, my brotherg Let us think no more of cider, Think no more of Hre-water, - For it stingeth like an adder, And it biteth like a serpent. In the restaurant at Hagar's, All the Freshmen were assembling, With their brethren, the juniors: ' Bassett came, the great Shawgamoc, Titcomb, too, the king of horreumz, And the smiling beauty, Watson. Then the eloquent braves, on both sides, Vied with words of warmest friendship. Eat, my brothers, and be merry, Said the chieftain of the Freshmen, H Fill up on the plumpest oysters, And the other toothsome dainties. WVe will foot the bills in order, If we have to make assignments, Forty cents upon the dollar. Then the juniors, hunger-wasted, Ate with smacks of greatest gusto 5 Stowed the grub away within them, And when sated, left the table, But, in truth, 'twas all they did leave. So the Freshmen, all elated, Looked with hope upon the juniors, H They will tight our battles for us 1 16 They will bring annihilation, On those foes who wait to soak us, Wait in ambush, at the college. But the juniors, stuffed with oysters, Looked like Eastern dromedaries g Walked, aS ships without a rudder, Poor support in time of danger. Then the Freshmen, full of valor, Rose, and sang a doughty war-song, Guilde was there, the verdant Green-grass And the staid and sombre Glidden, Rise-at-noon, the sluggish Goody, And the mulizwz parvo Spencer, Helped the throng to raise a tumult, Swelled with yells of Herce defiance. Thus the braves close joined together, Marched directly up the Main Street To the scene of bloody battle, Then paraded on the campus, VVhile the Sophomores, from their ambush Showered on them H aqua puraf' Oh, dear me! I want my mamma l Blubbered Hanson, 'L Little Shorty 3 'L It is time for bed already, Muttered Stevens, xoifo wore.

By Prof. E. W. I-Iall. This valuable work, ably edited by Prof. Hall, is a collection of the well-known and oft-repeated stories of the Colby Faculty. As some of the professors are growing old it was feared that their stories would be lost to the World, and at their own urgent request the present volume was compiled. We recommend it to any one who is tired of life. THE REAL NATURE OF THE UNIVERSE. By Charles Benjamin Fuller. This volume contains some very startling revelations in the world of science and philosophy. Mr. Fuller long ago discovered that none of the existing theories of the universe were correct, and he reveals the result of his own researches in this valuable book, in which the beliefs of all previous writers and thinkers are completely exploded. THE MYSTEIQX' OE LIFE g or, WHY I AM LIVING. By Bertram C. Richardson. This much discussed question is at last answered. The author has solved the mystery to his own satisfaction at least. The subject of the book cannot fail to arouse the 6Z!7'Z'0.YZ,Q! of the public. CO-ORDINATION. A Farce by the faculty and students of Colby University. We commend this little comedy to the notice of all friends of Colby. 172 Bibs-Walks iniilg Wnlhg with Bv A FRIEND or THE YOUNG LADIES. 5 Under this department I shall be highly gratified to girls. V DASSIE :-Cards need not be left in case the pro- fessor fails to make his appearance. X :-QU No, it is not considered necessary, save perhaps at one's own board, for the sake of economy, to restore the tooth-pick to the holder after it has served its purpose. MARY :-I should not regard it as sufficient cause for offense, if the young man you allude to as paying you such marked attention, leaves you alone during meal times. A. L. K. AND H. M. H.:-It is a very pernicious practice to venture out-of-doors without carefully pro- tecting one's head with sufficient covering. This is one of the most certain methods of encountering a cold. A. E. E.:-Doubtless Die Iournalisten is a charming piece of fiction, but would not its presenta- tionto the young man in question as a birthday remem- brance appear a triHe too suggestive, especially when 173 respond to all inquiries submitted to me by my dear you take into consideration the concluding sentence of the sketch? UNSOPTIISTICATED :-It is exceedingly bad form to attempt to attract the attention of your table-com- panions to any laughable occurrence by kicking them under the table. There is always the attendant danger of not reaching the individual intended. DUFFY :-No, I scarcely think it devolves upon you to bestow upon the young man who shares your brother's apartments, a sister's care and tender devo- tion. If he appears to desire such ministrations, it would be in better taste to recommend him to the person in charge of this department. ROSE-BUD :-No, the term Echo, as an appellation for a magazine, has no reference to the tendencies of the said publication simply to repeat what has already been uttered. It is derived from the Greek word Exif, I have, and refers to its accomplishments in the past. MUFF z-Even although you had been separated for so long a time Qthree whole weeksj, would it not be wisest to indulge only in such greetings as would not necessitate your withdrawal from the society of your friends ? FAIR DIEMOCRATZ-ThOH1aS B. Reed is not, I am sorry to say, a graduate of this University, but of a certain pretentious boarding-school for boys situated in a small town a few miles below here. In every other respect we consider him fully qualified for the position to which he now aspires, and can hardly see any adequate reason why a person even of your pe- culiar political proclivities should hesitate to lend him your influence and support. . LAURA :-There would not be any impropriety in a young lady's taking a stroll with a gentleman friend, provided it is with the knowledge and approval of some friend of maturer years and riper judgment, whom -she should have previously made acquainted with the name, age, social status, moral character and ultimate intentions of the young man in question. INA :-If you wish to effect an egress from your apartment during the hours of darkness, it is far better to quietly turn the, knob and emerge, than to arouse the slumbering inmates of the house by ill-directed efforts to destroy the material which intervenes be- I tween you and the hall. The above recommended method is even easier than calling on the head of the household to turn the knob for you. A. L. N.:-If your girl-friends have reposed sogreat confidence in you as to create you a member of their governing assembly, we can hardly see that it is justi- fiable for you to make use of the privileges thus accorded you to connive at your own transgressions. Midnight revels, although exceedingly innocent in themselves, are never becoming to the dignity of such a position. , HARRYZ-1Axllil'1OL1gl1 this column is especially de- signed to subserve the interests of the young ladies, yet you seem so much like one of the girls, that I cannot possibly experience any sensation of hesitancy in replying to your query. Surely, however, you can- not on these grounds feel entitled to all the privileges accorded the young ladies. This will, I apprehend, be sufhcient answer to your question as to how fre- quent and how extended occupation of the doorsteps of the ladies' dormitories you may be permitted' to enjoy. If this does not satisfactorily adjust all diffi- culties in your mind, I should be delighted to enter into personal communication with you. P. S.-In the first sentence you will not, of course, commit the unpardonable error of inserting the infini- tive particle to before the word like. , ,Ff- fx VN J f- N4 4, f 4,3 14N j K lxg f X x N.. ff QS, x - I ' 13 b NX ,Q ' I I Qi ONYX f, QT 1V1', NN EM , I-11 fygf' r' ' KY' 0 , ,:1f S ' , I X1 ,rxbxli I NA' 1' .

Wliat is this sound of thundering hoofs That rouses the watch-dog's bark? Those horses are swift as the swallow's They pause not for hill or for ford. O who can they be who ride so hard? lTis the flight of the Orzzrle Board. An hour ago they sat at ease Where warmth and comfort reigneclg Their task was done, their labor o'er, The glory almost gained. But sudden there came a messenger With terror in his eye: 4' The Professors have seen the Oracle, Fly for your lives, oh Hy ! if flight, Igo Then up sprang every knight and dame, To flee that dread attack, Each tore his charger from the stall I And leaped upon his back, And Bassett he borrowed Lord Chapman's Steed, Full swifter than his own. A flitting of shadows, a clatter of hoofs, And -the Oracle Board had flown. ' Oh, then there was mounting and riding in haste, Wlien the news to the Faculty came, They girt on their swords and bound on their spurs, And their eyes with wrath we1'e aflame. Sir Marquardt he shouted to Bayley the Bold, As the wind behind them roared: I vill cut them out, I vill cut them out, Ven I catch that Oracle Board. The Orafle Board they rode amain Through the night and the wind and the cold, And the Faculty rode as they ne'er rode before To catch those editors bold. The Oracle Board they rode amain, And terror blanched every cheek, For they heard behind the Homeric neigh Of Stetson's horse on Greek. 'tAnd why do you hide your face in shame ? Quoth the chief to his sister fair. And did you not hear that voice that came i'Borne down on the wings of the air? 'Twas the voice of Roberts the haughty and proud, And the words they grieved me sore. :This conduct is very unladylikef And she hid her face once more. But what is this sound like the lion's roar Above the howl of the gale? And why do these riders shudder and gasp, 'And why do their cheeks turn pale? 'Tis the voice of Marquardt the warrior grim, Whose castle frowns over the Rhine. And he roars to the wind as it whistles past: Wengeance is mine, is mine. So on through the night rode the Onzrle Board, And they rode till the break of day, And their chargers were spent and ready to fall And they turned and stood at bay. And they cried as the Faculty galloped up, And every vizor was lowered: 'L There's another Oracle coming next year, Beware ofthe Oracle Board 1 7' I k . 5. er, at A --, f, V rg K tellin- 1 7 Q OO M ,gb o sv ' ' vl5EiP3T '- e A -- -M G A 'Q ' X T' - lui' . ef .f ' .-,Mt-2723K , X 57 , ,,4Q' hear- ,fpff y 93- l-'flmiii'-f,'w vii' , 'ZQWVAIV f ii ' , .

For bruises, strains or muscular lameness it most certainly is all you claim for it. Wishing' you con- tinued success H. S. CORNISH, Athletic Manager Boston Athletic Assn. In practice, as in professional rowing, strains and overworked muscles are not uncommon, which your Johnson's Anodyne Liniment is well calculated to relieve promptly. I gladly add my indorsement of it to the many you could no doubt obtain if you wish from professional oarsmen. J. J. CASEY Ihave used yOur Johnson's Anodyne Liniment with much satisfaction. Baseball .players should all use it. Infact, among professional athletes a good rub down with the old Anodyne after a lively spurt of any kind will prevent many a sore muscle and stiff joint I sincerely believe. WM. EWKNG Manager and Captain New York Ball Club Ihave used your Anodyne Liniment during the past few years for removing stiffness of the muscles after long rides and have never found anything to do the work so quickly and effectively. I have also used it very successfully for muscular rheumatism. J. J. FECITT, President of the Roxbury Bicycle Club, Well-known Bicycle Rider Unlike any Other For Still Joints, Lameness and Sureness of any kind I have known of your Johnson's Anodyne Lini- ment being used with much satisfaction for some time. Probably among athletes no severer test could be applied than in the numerous departments of the gymnasium. J. H. CLAUSEN, Champion Jumper Boston Athletic Association Having used Johnson's Anodyne Liniment on a friend who was suffering with Lumbago with good re- sults, I recommend it to any one in need of a good liniment. WAX. CORCORAN, Cycle Trainer, Boston Working certain muscles more than others causes muscular soreness which should be attended to at once. I cheerfully endorse Johnson's Anodyne Lini- ment, and have found it invaluable for removing sore- ness caused by being in various athletic games, and our members use it extensively for the same purpose. WM. J. CASEY, Vice Pres. Trimount Athletic Club Your Johnson's Anodyne Liniment I ind to be the most valuable of any I ever used. I had a strained cord that bothered me for four years.. -I did not find any relief until I used your valuable Liniment. WAS. MILLS Champion Sprinter of New England.
