All day long the Editor read and reread the copy, the wrinkles in his fore- head multiplying, and the puckers around his eyes deepening, and his hair turning greyer at each perusal. And all because he was trying to get out an acceptable ORACLE. He had mapped out his course clearly enough at the beginning. The Colby ORACLE for IQO4 was to contain nothing ill-humored, spiteful, or malicious, honors were to be distributed over as much territory as possible, and with strict impartiality. The ORACLE was to be a dispenser of sunshine, and a bringer of gladness and mirth to the troubled soul. But the Editor forgot that he fell a trifle short of a Solomon in sagacity. And so the goose flesh spread all over him, and an icy despair settled down upon his soul, when he tried to decide whether to commit suicide or await a death by torment at the hands of A his fellow students. But after many vain curses at a perverse fate, he decided to allow things to take their own course and evolved the following conclusions 1 One. The ORACLE of 1904 has done well to raiseits head above the tide of debt that overwhelms it. Two. The ORACLE would not have materialized had it not been for the inspiration the Editor derived from his room-mates. ' Three. The Editor will not be at home to visitors for one month after the ORACLE makes its appearance. . 8 -Q S 1 n W j Q 1 9 3 5' Z: -J' f, zwwfm: Q ,ZZ 5 'od wg G ' :Zia if. ?v':.S.Q fX o QW P A' ff ' fb -1A-wif--xg, Q1 rl ' X- 5 3' - 2 ii ff H f 4. 9 bd 1,-1-55 -33 .Q iiidi 1,2 3? :U 2 -J Aff nf 9 1 5 xlgrtii 5 E E S. : -Q F pf 5 QI: 1-1 :wr 1 wa?

Tapley Senior History MEN FTER four long and happy years spent at Colby the class of nine- teen hundred and four stands upon a threshold, as it were, opening into a new and broader life. Soon we shall step across the threshold and pull shut the door ot undergraduate life. But let us push open the almost closed door to take one more farewell look before we close it upon ourselves for all time. Looking backward through the open door of college life we see ourselves as a bunch of green Freshmen, ignorant of College activities and requirements Nevertheless we were willing and eager to learn and a year taught us many things. We look again and the group of Freshmen has changed to a lot of noisy, care-free Sophomores. What fun we had with the Fresh- men in general and with their reading in particular. We won the class track games and entered every side of college life. Gnce again we look backward and see ourselves grown into juniors, enjoying their so-called 'flunior Ease But we did not find this year easy. ' Far from it. We settled down to work in real earnest. Only the Strike occurred to break the monotony of our steady plugging. About to close the door we take a last look over the last year. Time has worked wonders with usg but most of all it has thinned our ranks from nearly nfty to an even sixteen, But this has only served to bring us closer together as classmates. We have taken an active interest in, and furnished men for all kinds of college activities. Our record is one to be proud of. In a short time we shall have to close the door on our college lite and associations, to go out into the broader school of the world. We shall do this bravely and shall seek our future with the kindest feel- ings toward the college that has sheltered us for so long.

Is it possible that four years have passed since we were instructed to wait dutifully till all other classes were seated before entering those dread portals leading to the Chapel? Four years since we then took our trembling course across those miles and miles of wavey hardwood floor, before a sea of stern lowering faces, ready to condemn our least misstep? O, how we loved one another. lf we might only feel the pressure of one of our own number near we were safe. Our peanut drunk and a band concert took place on the same night, allowing us to eat our peanuts in com- parative pcace and safety, for who among the upper classmen, could resist, evtn for Freshmen, the alluring charms of the concert? As Sophomores we won fame in many and diverse ways. It may be that we were stiff-necked and hard to manage but lor this reason we the better trained the young shoots, springing up in our footprints, We liked independence and we won it. 'What is this we hear? 'fjunior Ease? Time for drives, enter- tainments and boating trips? I-Iinnnels donnerwetter Wir haben das Gieiche nie gesehen! ! Chemistry, History, Mathematics, Germang each demanding our whole attention What shall we do? VVhat others have done before us, and none any better than we, our best. We continued our spirit of independence while Juniors. VVe found ourselves as poor as church mice and had to return our gift, bought for the College. Board bills and term bills must be paid. The Senior year found us with the small but united and loving class of ten members. Our Senior Exhibition and Senior Reception show that we have acquired, not lost ability. Although, at times, our course has been a stormy one, we are glad to say that we can leave College in a spirit of peacefullness and loyalty and we are sorry to bid Lebewohl to our dear Alma Mater and to IQO4. 17 BICGRAPI-IIES OF SENIOR CLASS MEN i Vernon Stanley Ames, A.

When they told us that PreXy's office was in Coburn Hall we only pitied them that they had been at Colby one whole year and did not know better. Our peanut drunk we carried out with great success, for our class spirit alone was sufficient to make the Sophs timid. At the end of the year came the Freshman lixit, which was the crowning glory of a year well spent. The next September we returned, in numbers weakened, in ability strengthened, but ready to bear our Sophomore duties which we soon found to be many and dilhcult. Our first great task was that of re- forming the Freshmen, and as far as this task could be accomplished we certainly did our duty. XfVe have heard that one drink always creates the desire for another and this proved true in our case. The craving came upon us and we held another peanut drunk although it was wholly unplanned for by us. Everything went on smoothly in our Sophomore year until, alas and alack-the Freshman Reading. Qur brothers, feeling that they should pay due respect to old-time customs, and thinking that PreXy's bark was worse than his bite, formed in a body on that fatal night and marched to their doorn. This brought great woe upon us, for how could we get along without our brothers, upon whom we depended in all things? Sorrow overcame us and we too, of our own accord, turned our backs upon Colby. Thus ended our Sophomore year. But before the opening of the next year we had lived down our great sorrow, and on our return felt that the sun shone brighter after a cloud. The Faculty had evidently repented of their rash act and made the exams. which had been so dreaded, a decided snap. Having passed through this ordeal we turned our attention to other things, and the Junior year has proved no less enjoyable than the previous years. So far we have been loyal to Colby and we do not intend that our loyalty shall ever be lacking. - 35 :5'0PH9U03E5g w I Class of 1906 MEN Clfzsx Mill:-Bingo - Bango - Bango - Rix, 'Rah l 'Rah I 'Rah 1 for Noughty-six !

It has never been our habit to boast of our doings. Yet we cannot avoid a feeling of honest pride in our record during the past two years. It is but just to say that seldom, if ever, in the history of the college has a class of such exceptional abilities entered the doors of old Colby. And it is a matter of common knowledge that no class has ever done so much in so short a time to prove itself worthy of all honor from the student body at large, But our modesty will not allow us to dwell upon these facts. An example or two will suffice. What would our football and baseball teams have done but for the skill and prowess of the members from nineteen-six ? They have brought to the college whatever of success has been won up to the present hour in athletic contests. And in the line of scholarship, how we have laid low the profs in spite of their utmost efforts to trip us. But again I say, our modesty forbids us to dwell further upon these facts. In one direction alone has the class failed to perform with credit the duties which have fallen to it. In grappling with the problem of correctly training nineteen-seven we must admit that even our un- excelled wisdom has been baffled-the task has been too great for mortal man to accomplish. It would indeed be difficult to estimate the benefit which has come to the college because of our presence here. New life and spirit have been aroused in every department of college activity by the coming of the class of nineteen-six. And now as we stand facing the still greater problems which await us during our remaining two years of college life, our hearts beat firm with the high resolve that the purpose that has so far animated all our acts shall continue to keep us true to the best in- terests of the college. Yet even here we are restrained by our modesty which forbids us to anticipate our triumphs, and which is, indeed, the most characteristic and winning trait of the class. 40V Class of 1906 WOMEN Class Yell:-Bingo - Bango - Bango - Rix, 'Rahl 'Rahl 'Rahl for-Noughty-six!

It was a goodly tribe and the women thereof were six and twenty, And in the beginning they did long exceedingly for the land of their fathers, and much oppression was their lotg for there was one tribe which did vex them sorely and did seek to put their council to naught. But the tribe did confound their wisdom and did have a peanut drunk with much eating and drinkingg and to the men of the tribe they did make a feast and did pass the night in singing and dancing and in making merry. Once the tribe of the wicked did fall upon them by night and did make them do strange thingsg and they did bring confusion into their habitations. But many were the feasts of the new tribe and their bones did wax fat and they fiourished as the cedars of Lebanon, for there was not overmuch study, which is a weariness of the flesh. And at the end of the first year they did go to Fairfield and did make a great feast where they did break the bonds of oppression and from henceforth they were troubled no more. In their second year in the kingdom it fell upon them to watch over and instruct the new tribe in the way it should go. After the fashion of other tribes this new tribe did have a peanut drunk and boast with many words, whereat they did rise up and did take a measure of peanuts and did give of them to all the tribes. And now the number of their feasts groweth less and they labor with exceeding great toil and their flesh waxeth weary, for the word of the king and his coun- cillors saith that Physics is not elective. Wherefore they possess their souls in patience and await the time when they shall be the first tribe in the kingdom and shall leave the weary grind. 43 U! runs:-IMAN i Class of 1907 MEN Cfrzss Yell:--Hic, haec, hoc, 'tis no joke, , Tiues Ezrpfv 61 Ni Ni.

This is so unjust that the present writer has solemnly resolved to depart from the time-honored precedent and to relate simply the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truthj O write the history of a year old infant! That were indeed a fit task for the historian ! Yet in these days of psychological re- search to recount the gradual unfoldings of the infant mind might not be deemed so unworthy a task after all, But when the infant is born a fool, and has no mind to unfold! Oh, ye gods, spare us the thought ! Such is the lot of our infant brother, the class of 1907. As is often the case with the unfortunate born f00l'l the babe is strong and lusty, with every promise of a long life. But that is allg it must always be a care and anxiety to its friends. Its doings from its first appearance in chapel, sprawled out like some slobbering idiot, until the present hour have been one continuous demonstration of its lack of brains. But why record these distressing and disgraceful actions? One instance will suffice. How characteristic of the class were the decorations used upon the exterior of Thayer Hall at the time of the Freshman Reception ! How suggestive that the poor babe still needed the guiding hand of a nurse to care for its wants ! Lovingly and ten- derly has the class of 1906 attempted to fill the position of friend and guardian to this forlorn and helpless member of the college family. But though 1906 is a class of unexcelled talent, of unwearied patience, and of unquestioned wisdom, the task has been beyond their power,- sadly they acknowledge the fact. To instill wisdom into empty space 5 to create knowledge out of nothingnessg this was indeed a vain attempt. And now the child stands on the threshold of the Sophomore year, all unfitted for its heavy responsibilities. How we tremble for the morals of 1908, with no sage and earliest friend to watch over them! Alas for them! And a'as for the college when 1907 breaks loose next fall! 49 Class of V907 VVOMEN Claws Yell.---Hic, haee, hoc, 'tis no joke, Tlues El0',U.Ell 62 kd Ni, Boom Irah boom, boom 'rali bum, Nineteen-Seven in the swim.

H Freshman l'listory vvoMEN HEN in the fall of IQO3, Mother Colby's returned once more to her loving care there was seen among them a group of strange little women who stood looking shyly around and evidently wishing that they were at home with mamma. A morning or two after their arrival they inquired the way to chapel of a kind Sophomore and almost ran past Prexy in their eagerness to get the seats nearest their twin brothers. Wheii at last they were all together and they saw that their group was one of the largest, their spirits began to rise and they were very brave until a few of their elder sisters came around to lookeafter their wellfare. Then some became frightened and ran to hide in their closets, weeping hysterically, while others gladly exhibited their dramatic and athletic abilities to their visitors Before long they learned that it was the custom to have a peanut drunk sometime during the first week of the term. So they bought two bushels of peanuts, chartered an Oakland car and invited their brothers to go with them, meanwhile, telling their plans to no one except one of their Sophomore friends. When at the stated time and place they boarded the car and found that their peanuts had myster- iously disappeared, they again wept hysterically but became happy once more when their brothers told them to come just the same and they would buy them some more. As all enjoyed this trip, they soon decided to hire a hall in the city and give a reception. Fearing lest their refreshments might again disappear or some of their boys get caught, they invited their guests to come early in the afternoon and stay to tea. But alas, disregarding all warnings, they danced all the evening, thus calling down upon their luckless heads the wrath of Prexy and the faculty. ' The next social event which they attended was the Halloween party given by their sisters of IQO6. At this they were punished for their misdeeds and instructed in the laws and customs of Colby. Since then they have been putting away their childish ways, and little by little acquiring the dignity suited to a class which must so soon put on the mantle which 1906 has outgrown.

It seemed characteristic that he finished the work of last year, putting into it the full measure of his strength and on one of the mornings of Commencement Vfeek, was promoted to the higher service. ' William Elder was born at Hamlsport, Nova Scotia, August 2, I84O. He was educated at Arcadia College, with post-graduate work at Harvard under Professors Agassiz Cooke, and Chaler. He had won recognition as a teacher of exceptional power at Arcadia and Harvard when he was called to Colby as the successor of Professor Charles E. Hamlin who had been at the head of a department at Harvard. Until 1885 Professor Elder had charge of the double department of Chem- istry and Natural History, afterward of the department of Chemistry. As a teacher he was unique. Himself a hard worker, never content with the surface of things, he insisted that his students should work hard and secure results which should be exact, scientific and adequate. He dealt with the dullest with rare and kindly patience if they would do their best, but his scorn never failed to overwhelm the triflers who would neither think nor work. He let it be plainly understood that his recitations were 'fnot occasions for extemporaneous speakingl' on the part of the students but that only the exact thought of lecture or text- book would be accepted. The drill which he gave was of utmost value to his students in after life. Of a deeply religious nature and with a profound knowledge of philosophy, his lectures on scientihc themes led many to sound philo- sophical views and to rational and permanent faith. In the conclusion of one of his articles he said, This is God's Universe 3 and everything we come to understand about its finite phenomena helps to put us in touch with the Infinite One. All truth is divine truth. His was the poetic as well as the scientific interpretation of nature, and in the works of the great poet Tennyson and Browning he found a 133 constant delight. His lectures upon these poets were a veritable rev- elation to many who thought that they had read with understanding. It was the character, the intelligence and the moral quality of the man which profoundly impressed and helped his students, while his friendship was an inspiration to all who enjoyed it. His influence over many men was like that exerted by Dr. Arnold of Rugby, and in their work own will endures. Browning's words are appropriate to him 1 One who never turned his back but marched breast forward, Never doubted clouds would break, Never dreamed though right were worsted wrong would triumph, l Held we fall to rise, are baffled to fight better, sleep to wake. 134 ln Their Season i Like Rhoda hearkening at the gate When Peter knocked, I Damsel of spring, the prinarose, late In winter locked, For gladness at the south wind's voice Calls her fair sisters to rejoice. Up starts the wake-robin, while yet The anenione, The Columbine and violet, In sympathy, Are donning each her christening hue Of lavender or pink or blue. The dandelion's golden disk On sunny banks, The apple-blossoms' annual risk In clustered ranks, Provoke the meadows to unfold Their niarguerites and cups of gold. The wild-rose at the breath of june Ventures a blush, The timid hare-bells, following soon, 'Midst fern and rush, The contrast of their blue display,- The blue of sunimerls longest day. The water-lilies on the pond At anchor ride, A fleet of beauty, under bond To summer-tideg Whilst like a foernan, in his ward Of sedge, the arrow-head keeps guard. By meadow brook the cardinal Waves his red eapg The yellow fox-glove in the dell Wakes from her nap 5 Angelica and meadow-rue To seasons and themselves are true. 135 In August's waning hours a troop Of asters come, And golden-rod in many a group Of yellow bloomg The haws are reddeuing ou the thorn, And hazels tell of summer gone. Almost alone in autumn days The gentiaus bloom, Save that a rose or sweet-briar stays, To cheer the gloom Q And so the wild flowers sleep again, To waken with the sun and rain. LABAN EDWARDS 'WARREN 136 , f N Pow. Rev. Hugh Ross Hatch, A.M. EV. HUGH ROSS HATCH, A.M,, who was graduated from Colby in the class of 189o, has returned to us as the successor of Professor L. E. WHT1'CH in the department of Mathematics, and has already won the respect and affection of the students. Professor Hatch was born in Islesboro, Maine, in 1865. He com- pleted his course at Bucksport Seminary in 1886 and entered Colby College from which he was graduated in 1890, receiving the degree of AB. He continued his studies at Newton Theological Seminary and was graduated from there in 1893. In this same year he was ordained at Islesboro, Maine, but returned to Newton in the fall as Instructor in Old Testament Studies. Here he remained for four years. From that time until he came to Colby he was pastor of the Baptist church at VVolfville, N. S. During his Senior year in college he was Editor-in-Chief of the Echo, and business Manager at the same time. In 1898 Professor Hatch received the degree of A.M. He has spent two summers at the University of Chicago and has published articles in the Biblical Worlcl on Old Testament studies. 137 Cveorge Freeman Parmenter, Ph.D. R. PARMENTER was called to Colby to fill the chair of Chemistry, left vacant by the late Professor William Elder, whose death caused heartfelt sorrow to all who knew him. Dr. Parmenter was born in Dover, Mass., March 26, 1877. He prepared for college at Needham High School, and in 1896 entered Massachusetts State College and was graduated in IQOO. In this same year he received the degree of B. S. from both the State College and and Boston University. For some time after his graduation Professor Parmenter was retained at his Alma Mater as a Fellow in Chemistry, and after leaving this position was assistant chemist at the United States Experiment Station at Kingston, R. l. During the last two years he has been instructor in chemistry at Brown University, and there received the degrees of A. M. and Ph. D., also being elected to the honorary scientinc society of Sigma Chi. Wfhile in college Professor Parmenter of Phi Sigma Kappa frater- nity, was prominent in athletics, and was manager of the College Weekly and Year Book. 138 vvebgref chester, AB. ROFESSOR CHESTER is the successor of Professor Moore in the Biological Department. He comes to us through Harvard University where he has been pursuing graduate work in Biology- He was born at Noank, Connecticut, October 31, 1876 In 1891 he entered Bulkley High School, New London, Connecticut, from which he was graduated in 1893. During a part of the years 1894 and 1895 he was a student at the Connecticut Literary Institute. He entered Colgate University in the fall of 1896 and received from that Institution the degree of A.B. From 19oo to 1902 Professor Chester was instructor in Science and Mathematics at Colby Academy, New London, New Hampshire, - Since coming to us Professor Chester has shown the greatest energy and interest in his department, and has already made his courses among the most popular and valuable in the college corriculum. 139 Alban David Sorensen, A.lVl. LBAN DAVID SORENSEN, A. M. came to us this year as Associate Professor of Philosophy and Instructor in Gymnastics and has filled both positions with popularity and success. Professor ,Sorensen was born in La Crosse, VVisconsin, May 7, 1969. I-I e prepared for college at the High School in his native town, being graduated from it in 1889. He then studied at Dennison University, Granville, Ohio, where he received, in 1893, the degree of A. B. and in 1895 that of A. M. He held a fellowship in Mineralogy for one year in this college. In 1895 he entered Rochester Theological Seminary, completing the course in 1898. For the next three years he was a Fellow in Sociology at the University of Chicago. He then occupied for one year the position of instructor in Philosophy at the Alfred University, Alfred, N. Y. During the year IQOI-IQO2 he was instructor in Mathematics in Peddie University, Heightstown, N. Y. One year's travel in Alaska refreshed and invigorated him before taking up his work here which he is carrying on in such an admirable and successful manner. Professor Sorensen has taken many honors in the various schools 140 ' and colleges in which he has been occupied both as student and teacher, which he has modestly withheld. I-Ie was one of six speakers, out of a class of thirty-two, who represented his class on the ,Commencement stage at his Alma Mater. In 1893 he published an article entitled, A Comparative Study of the Pineal Gland, Epiphysis, and Roof of the Diencephatonu in which the Pineal Organ was for the first time shown to be a degenerate eye. Not only is Professor Sorensen an able man in the class room but he has aroused an interest in athletics at Colby which has been un- equalled for years. - 141 A Legend Should you ask me, whence this story? YVhence this legend and tradition, With the echo from the distance, W'ith the sound of flowing water, With the gorgeous days of autumn, NVith the gleaming, frosty winter, NVith the soft and pleasant springtime, With the breath of early summer, With the troop of men and maidens, With their hopes and aspirations, With its moral, if it have one? I should answer, I should tell you, From the lofty, graceful elms, As they sway on Colby's campus, From the groups of spreading willows, As they whisper to each other, From the Kennebects deep waters, As they ripple, lisp, and murmur. Years ago a seed was planted By the Kennebec's bright waters, As they ripple, lisp, and murmur, just an acorn smooth and rounded, Planted by the hands of wise men Warmed by sun and wet by showers, Watched by those whose hands had placed Grew the acorn, smooth and rounded, Sending downward roots and rootlets, Sending upward twigs and branches. As the seasons came and ended, Strong the young plant grew and stronger, Firm and deep its roots were grounded, Fair and tall its upward growing, And its branches, lithe and graceful, Raised their leafy hands to heaven. Soon the birds found here a lodging, Birds from other climes and foreign, Where this tree's great reputation Had been carried by its planters. Not because the air was milder, Or the winters less inclement, 142 it Than where they had lived as fledglings, But because they here developed, Learned to use thcir wings more quickly Did they hither come in autumn, When the oak leaves nrst were turning, Make their home among these branches, And remain till early summer. More than one year thus they came here, Autumns four marked their returning, Each year mounting high and higher, Till the fourth spring found them sitting On the very topmost branches, Soon to fly to other quarters, Soon to try their strength in soaring. Every bird, though, went not higher On his annual returning, If in work he'd been unfaithful, Dwelt he two years without mounting. And at times some grew discouraged, x Thought their wings would never strengthen, Or ambition made them restless, And they nnished not their four years. Strange that, altho, one in purpose, Namely, strong to grow and useful, Learn to mount in air as eagles, Strange that they should ever quarrel, Strive, and scratch, and peck each other. But they quarreled and contended, Tho' 'twas mostly in good nature. It had grown to be the custom That the younger birds, first coming, Should abide in lower branches, And the birds whose second autumn Found them dwelling a bit higher, Looked askance upon the new ones, Looked askance, and picked upon them g For the new flock had a notion That they owned the whole big oak tree, And they fought for recognition. But their homes were laid in havoc By these worthy ones and mighty, And their plans were often thwarted When they tho't to hold a meeting. Oft they worried their superiors, And the factions, while contending, Seemed to think that they had come there just to spy upon each other, And to waste their time in scrapping. Truth to tell, they found more pleasure 143 Thus in warring with each other Than in doing what they came for. But the new ones lost their freshness As approached their second autumn, And, in turn, their vengeance plotted 'Gainst she newest callow birdlings. One fine day and long remembered, Came another kind of fledgling To the famous oak tree's shadow g Timid they, and few in numbers 5 She, the others calledbthe new kind, But their advent soon was followed By their ilk in larger numbers, And there grew to be less wonder At the strange and unknown creature g For she lived and planned and labored As her brothers had before her, Her abode became established, Yea, evoked no more of comment. But one year the worthy leaders QMay their memories be honored!D They, the elders of the oak tree, Formed a plan by which their charges Could not quite so much commingle : All the first kind should have one side, All the second have the other, Of the Kindly spreading oak tree, And their times of freely meeting Should be watched and stipulated. This was called co-arfz'z'na!zb1z. All went smooth for years in this way, Till some birds whose course was ended, Said the new kind was a menace To her brothers in the oak tree, Said they'd have her there no longer, And the war was hot and heavy. i Meanwhile calmly came the new kind, Took her training and departed, All unconscious of the ruin She was charged with bringing with he And the talk and the objections Of these irite ones proved fruitless,- Both kinds lived in peace together, For the oak tree was impartial. Once a storm passed down the river, In the days of early summer, Swayed the oak on its foundations, T44 1' Made its inmates quake and tremble. On the lower sets of branches All the tenants were at warfare, And the elders were against them. Hard to state the why and wherefore, But for days all was contention, And the good tree's life was threatened. Late in june the war abated, And the combatants departed, Flew away to think it over, In the truce of peaceful summer. Thus the tree had time to straighten All its ruiiiled leaves, and tighten All its roots, which had been loosened g And September found it stronger Than before in all its histtry, While its wayward ones came Hocking Back to lodge within its branches, Bringing many new ones with them. 'DF bk 91- 'X' This a tale of long ago is, Whispered by the swaying elms, By the woodbine on the chapel, By the groups of spreading willows, By the Kenuebec's deep waters, As they ripple, lisp, and murmur, By the snow that gleams and sparkles, By the drifting snow that covers Colby's campus with its mantle. 145 ,.H VVhere Peace and Beauty Reign A hush lies on the forest White and still : So deep, so soft the new-fall'n snowdrifts lie That distant sounds are muffled g and the rill, XfVhose Waters clear, half-hidden from the eye, XVith accents trernulous creep thro' the dell, Seems but the voice in which the woodland sings Its hymns of praise, that gently breathe and swell Till all the grateful forest softly rings. The beauty-laden boughs are drooping low, With weight they scarcely can sustain, to rest Their burden on the Wide expanse of snow, The purity of earth's soft, quiet breastg Like snowy-plumaged birds, tl1e smaller nrs And pines and spruces bend low in repose, While not a breath their slender branches stirs, Which hang like downy Wings all folded close. In treetop high the squirrel sports 3 anon Looks down and sees that he is not alone, And scolds Whoever dares intrude upon The solitude he thought was all his own. A pity 'tis that human step should mar The quiet beauty of this peaceful scene, Or we with thoughtless clamor drive afar The birds that love the snow and evergreen. So let us then in reverence withdraw And leave the innocents their rightful sway, While We drink in, our souls subdued with awe, The glory of a perfect winter day. O pure creations of the Hand Divine Are this deep whiteness and the winding stream, This nook in Maine's broad forest-lands of pine, Where peace and beauty reign and reign supreme. -M. L.

These will be somewhat costly as in his left ear the Roof of the Dienceph- ation has fallen in, causing astigmatism which canube cured only by having glasses arranged in such a manner as to allow him to focus both ears at the same time on one object without strain to either ear. This enterprise should be hastened and encouraged as we cannot afford to have him lose his ear sight while among us. Moreover, we take a per- sonal interest in Dr. Sorensen who has won all hearts by his modest and unassuming manner. VVhat is Perkins cooking his ear in that way for? Ch, he is trying to see through his ears. He is working for a pull with Sorensen. PICKED UP GN THE STAIRS. Bill Cowing, . I am in Blacks class and haven't got my lesson.

TI-IE FIGHT QF THE RAZORBACKS Bill and Frapp sat, or rather reclined on the table and grunts of satisfaction issued from their long snouts, and their little eyes twinkled as they enjoyed the good things provided at the commons. All was peace and happiness until news came that Soule would not be present for supper. Immediately the Bold Frappus' made a lunge and a grab for a dish of sauce sitting about eight feet away at Soul's plate. Bill got his foot in it at the same time and a battle royal ensued between the swine. Many and loud were the grunts and squeals that arose. The table, looking now like a true hog's trough, was overturned, and the two bristle covered porkers fell with a crash in the midst of broken crockery and scattered food, where they lay kick- ing and squealing until the Pound Driver assisted them into a snow bank, there to cool their heels and find food for reflection.

I It takes many kinds of people to make a college, but they are all more or less human. The average man comes to college to do as much work as the faculty can make him do, to sleep as long as they will allow him to, and to enjoy life the rest of his time whether the faculty will or no. The creed of the college man concerns itself chiefly with his physical existence, and his Golden Rule is do 'em up, or get donefi Who are you Mr. President to say nay, if he wish to sit on a high board fence for once in the year, making night hideous by giving small vent to his feelings after daily having his fur rubbed the wrong way about his ethics of living, and weekly having some ill-smelling Doctrine can tied to his otherwise oft twisted tail? Better take care, and don't be rash lVIr. President, when the rats leave the ship, you know, there is not much hope, and it's the same way with kittens. Of course, if you have no tact, it is pretty hard to handle men, and you ought not to be blamed for what you don't have. Oh no, the trustees are responsible for that, never fear old boy, we all know it. I Speaking of tact, I knew a minister once, he was a mighty good fellow, too, but he had no tact and he didn't understand human nature any better than some other people. He was always wondering why he could never create much enthusiasm and get new members into his church. He quite overlooked the fact that there were a lot of people outside his church who did fully as much good in the world as those inside. Being conceited for narrowj he .could not see things from another standpoint than his own, but those outside could, they under- stood and many times felt sorry for him. So it is today, he can't see 156 over his back fence, but he is grand viceroy in his own barn-yard and he rules with an iron hand. So never mind, God will show him where he missed the point, not I.-Moral: Give the other fellow credit for knowing a little at least, for God 'aint said yet whether you was a fool or I. There is a man in East Aurora who says that you don't know any more than any one else, and I think he is right when he says it. I have wandered a bit I see, but here's at it again. I know you're sorry about that last Freshman Reading and so am I. I am always sorry after my good times, sort of a mornin'-after sorrow don't you know. I have been told that some of those compounds advertised in the street cars would make one feel all right the next morning, but I don't know, I would advise you to try boarding at the Commons, for Mat is guaranteed and endorsed by ninety students to have the same effect, and is much more pleasant UD to take. So you would suppress the VVar Cry? VVhatI In this land of the greatest freedom, almost the very symbol of Liberty itself, would you teach those young and tractile UD minds under your care that warn' of tyrannies, the suppression of the press? Go to, go to, I must refer you to one of the stanchest forefathers of that Puritanism of yours, john Milton says that a wise man can gather gold out of the drossiest volume, and a fool will be a fool with the best book, or indeed without a book. john hit us all then, both you and me, didn't he? VVhat of it, if you dir! suspend the Sophomores, the college went with them and then you made such a farce of the examinations, when we 'returned in the fall, that every one passed without even looking at his term's work in review. I say, but that music must have cost you a pretty penny, and the newspaper space, too, which you bought to con- tradict false QPQ reports and rumors in. VVell, those who dance must pay the fiddler. Eli? ' XfVA'rERviLLE, Me., Colby College, Mar. 6, IQO4. lVIv DEAR FATHER: You know I have often mentioned how mean our German Professor is, but I have never described him to you. Some one asked me to write a roast on him for the ORACLE but after I had thought it over awhile I gave it up because I couldn't think of anything bad enough that hadn't been said already. You remember that clod-hopper we had working on the farm last summer. VVell, Dutchy, as we call him, re- minds me of that man. First he has big feet which he incases in long 157 topped over-shoes when he is walking He tucks his pants in these and helps out that back-woodsy appearance. His suit reminds me of that bed-ticking with the fine stripes, mother bought last summer. His hands, with which he makes the most violent and ridiculous gestures, are somewhat hairy, with strong stiff fingers. He wears a ring on one hand and has a heavy gold watch-chain about the size of the chain you put on the sleds to keep them from running down hill too fast. On this chain is a gold Phi Beta Kappa watch key. The person from whom he stole it must be dead now, for he does not seem to be afraid to show it and constantly dangles it in his hand, while he winds and unwinds the chain about his fingers. This is a full description of what he wears except that I should say he always wears a white shirt and a broad, low collar which shows up his leathery neck to perfection. But how shall I describe the noble head which surmounts this body? But, oh, I forgot to say that he is about 5 feet ten in height and of fairly good proportion. And the head! jaw, firm, square, obstinate, uncompromising. Mouth, straight with corners hid under his straw mustache close-cut, and with a scared look as though it was afraid of his teeth, and retiring altogether when he laughs, which is often enough, because he thinks his own jokes are pretty funny things. But I will speak of his laugh later. His nose is like the ordinary one I guess. I never thought of his having one before, although he pokes it round bad enough. I ought to give up on his eyes, they are big enough to be describedQ?j. Conceive a fox with blue-gray eyes and you come nearest it. Dutchy has very light eye- brows and lighter hair on the top of his head, in fact it is so light there that it has all blown away, making it look like a chicken's breast with the feathers all ,picked off. The hair on the side of his head looks like the moss on Old Baldface mountain back of our house. His ears are the funniest combination I ever heard of. He can't hear john Coombs when he is talking aloud while others are reciting and he can't hear you prompt the football men aloud, but he can hear the slightest whisper when you help any one else. And when he laughs a fiendish, tickled expression spreads over his face, his eyelids peel back over the whites of his eyes, the skin wrinkles about his jaws like a scalded pig's back, his mustache retreats and hides, and his teeth come out and look sneakingly around as much as to say, If you don't laugh at my jokes I will cut you out.
