Caldwell, A Y Preface The 39th volume of our College Annual, The Colby Gracie, is ready for the press. VVe trust and hope that this volume will, even better than its predecessors, represent the true type of undergraduate life at Colby and the ever increasing love and devotion which we have for our Alma Mater. It has been our aim to produce an 'annual which would contain an accurate idea of the activities and the spirit of student life and which would be of interest to all, whether student, alumnus or friend. The changes made this year have been only those which in our careful estimation are for the best. This year has seen the Gracle Association become more definitely organized than formerly. We believe that this is surely an indication of the progress in our college activities which are bound to keep pace with the College itself. But to go back to the beginning, have we succeeded in our aim? Perhaps not. Some worthy material may have been left out, some joke may hit a little too hard. However, all We ask is that-you will give credit where it is due, and feeling sure that your criticism will at least be of value to our successors we submit with grateful hearts the result of our labors. 8 Officers of the Corporation REV.

During our junior year we conducted ourselves with all the dignity and decorum befitting upper-class men, enjoying as some old grad might the gentle pranks of the lower classes. And now the final year has come, and before we are well aware of its presence, it too is gone, and we must leave the fostering care of the old college. Whatevei' the future may have in store for us, whether fame or obscurity, riches or poverty, let us all ever remember in kind- ness old Colby, and endeavor to do our duty in that state of life unto which it shall please God to call us as well as our dear old college has done her duty by us. 18 .

N passing through four years of active college life, the class of '05 has experienced all the ordinary vicissitudes and blessings which com- monly fall to the lot of Colby classes, and in addition has won lasting renown as the last Sophomore class privileged to disturb a Freshman Reading. As Freshmen we received the fatherly corrections of the over- solicitous Sophs with due meekness and patience, until at length the spirit of independence arose strong and mighty in the class-then shortly the reign of terror inaugurated by '04 was over. Our Sophomore year opened as quietly as any ordinary college year might, but the future was to reveal it as marking one of the great epochs of Colby's history. Fora time all went like the proverbial marriage belle-the class conscientiously endeavoring to whip the raw recruits of '06 into the semblance of something a little more creditable to Colby than the aggregation of yaps which confronted us that Sep- tember morning. That '05 succeeded well is amply manifested by the magnificent class which next year will follow in her footsteps. And so, humbly following the light that was given us, and endeavoring to do our duty by the class succeeding us, we of '05 approached the night of nightsg the night in which events were destined to occur which would move all the college, from Prex on his throne to the maids of the Palmer Houseg from the lowly Freshman to the mighty trustee. Dire were the punishments promised us, terrible were the threats against us, should we dare break the solemn hush that should properly attend the debut of the Freshman orators. Rightly or wrongly, however, the class was agreed to a man that 'o 5 must rally to the defense of the time-honored traditions of Colby, at whatever personal cost. And so, with an enthusiasm and ingenuity worthy of a better cause, the class labored to make the Freshman Reading the usual huge success it had been in the past-and what followed is still fresh in the memories of all. Happily those troublous times are past-the ruler and the ruled understand each other better now, and the whole college is advancing along the paths of peace. Still, sometimes a sigh is yet heard for the good old customs which 17 Senior History 4 vvoMEN OUR years have almost nnished their course since the class of 1905 entered Colby's open door, four years since those twenty- one girls entered the chapel the first morning, and tremblingly yet cautiously traversed that long distance to the Freshmen seats and later made their way about the various recitation buildings. We were a wise class, for during the nrst week we elected class officers and made plans for the peanut drunk, which was successfully carried out in Fairfield while the wise and wily Sophomores in vain hunted for some trace of us. Trained by Professors and Sophomores we were made ready for the next stage in college life, and we ended a short and happy year with our Freshman exit. The next fall we were back with 'eighteen in our class. We had imbibed from the Sophomores their arrogance and independence, and with this spirit we tried to fulhl our duties to all. This year, although bringing unpleasant things and ending in real sorrow, brought also pleasures, and contributed its share to our development. The third year we settled down soberly to diligent work. The so called junior Ease was but a dream to us. History, Chemistry, English and German together with other studies, required more than all our time, and there were also social duties. We must prepare our- selves to step into the places of our elders, the Seniors, in the fall. This year thirteen of us have tried to take these responsible places with a propriety and dignity worthy of Seniors, and now after having passed through the successive stages which the four years of college bring, we are about to leave this life at Colby. We are glad that we can look back over such happy years, glad that we have so many pleasant' memories to carry away with us. lfVe see that our class has perhaps not shone with so great a brilliancy as some others, yet it has been a never-failing light, and such will the members of the class of 1905 be when they go to hll their places in the broad world. 20 Biographies of Senior Class C MEN David Kenneth Arey, AY, Camden.

C Junior l-llstory MEN OVV it came to pass in the second year of the reign of Charles the NVhite, Prex in Colby, in the Erst month, in the four and twentieth day of the month, that there came up unto the College a noble band of choice young men. Never before had such a band been seen in the land, no, not since the days of the hrst Prex even unto this day. For among that company were mighty men of valor, men of renown. There were also men skilled in all the understanding of the ancients, and men cunning of hand to devise likenesses of man or beast. And when this band had entered into the College it began to do valiantly and to make a name for itself. .And it came to pass in that same year, in the tenth month, that there was a rebellion in the College,i and all men rose up against Prex, and it was much noised abroad. And at that time also these noble youths, who were called the Class of Nineteen-six, did bear themselves discreetly and with wisdom. Now when the course grew harder and the contest waxed strenuous, then the weak and the feeble fell by the wayside, But the strong and the valiant remain even unto this present day, proving themselves worthy to hold an honorable place among their brethren. 42 I Class of 1906 WOMEN Class Yell .' - Bingo-Bango-Bango-Rix, ' Rah I ' Rah!

It consisted of twenty-six luminaries, each one of surpassing splendor and attractions. Wfhat more need be said-they were the women of the great and glorious class of 1906, destined to shine forever as the brightest light in Colby's history ! During their first year they were the cynosure of all eyes. So many were the attentions they received that they brought upon them- selves the wrath of their natural enemies-that pale and indistinct constellation known as 1905 Many were the traps laid for them, but artfully veering a little from their orbit they escaped unharmed. Life was a dream of happiness 1 Times changed the next year, however. Some of the most brilliant stars-not being fixed-disappeared from the group. New cares were added in the way of instructing the next annual constellation-a heterogeneous conglomeration of bodies, as yet in the molten and unformed state-in the way they should go. Hopeless task! Then, too, the Sun and Planets, making up what is known as the Faculty, decreed that life during this year should be an endless round of toil. But with their usual perseverance they came off victors, their luster undimmed at the end of the year. And now the end of the third year has found them still holding their high place in the celestial panorama. VVith duties somewhat lightened they have passed the zenith and are fast moving on to the destined goal. Then shall they cease their active work in the little world called Colby, but they can never set. Their fame will live on and on until the end. . 45 A41 KQQ 00,7313 if Q57 ,, N . as AW s A , 'F 1, if Class of 1907 MEN Class IQZZ.--Hic, haec, hoc, 'tis no joke, Tiuss Eoguev df Ni Ni Boom 'rah Boom, Boom 'rah bim, Nineteen-seven in the swim. ,, OFFICERS Harry Charles Bonney, President Oscar Benjamin Peterson, Vice President Perley Lenwood Thorne, Secretary Fred Whiting Coffin Rideout, Treasurer Herman Brudenell Betts, Marshal Lewis Wfallcer Dunn, Toastmaster Arthur Kenelin VVinsloW, Poet Otis Alpheus Thompson, Historian Elbridge Gerry Davis, Chaplain Burr Frank jones, Prophet EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Malcolm Dana Smith 4 Ralph Benjamin Young John Bailey DeVVitt 48 Members Myron Eugene Berry, ATQ, Herman Brudenell Betts, AY, Harry Charles Bonney, AKE, john Arthur Burton, ATQ, Edwin Parker Craig, AKE, Walter Ellis Craig, AKE, Elbridge Gerry Davis, AY, john Bailey DeWitt, ZIII, Lewis Walker Dunn, AKE, Roscoe Conkling Emery, ZKII, Leslie Vlfillis Getchell, Zilf, Chester Alden Grant, CDAQD, Milton Bicknell Hunt, AY, Burr Frank Jones, ZYII, Elliott Curtis Lincoln, AY, Millard Claude Moore, Robert Morris, ATQ, Ray Seavey Morse, ATQ, Vlfiley Oliver Newman, QJAQD, Oscar Benjamin Peterson, f1DA6D, Fred Meek Pile, IPAQ, Fred Vlfhiting Coffin Rideout, ZNII, Charles Rush, ATQ, Thomas Albion Smart, AKE, Malcolm Dana Smith, AY, John Winn Spencer, KIDAGJ, Albert Kingsley Stetson, AKE, Arthur William Stetson, AKE, John Melvin Stuart, ATQ, Otis Alpheus Thompson, ATQ, Perley Lenwood Thorne, CIJACQ, Elihu Blaine Tilton, QDAQ, Clayton Melcher Ward, AKE, Arthur Kenelm Winslow, AKE, David Monaghan Young, ATQ, Ralph Benjamin Young, QJAQD, Waterville, H odgdon, Guilford, Corinna, Vlfaterville, Augusta, Amity, Bradford, 'Waterville, Eastport, Vlfaterville, Freedom, Charleston, Wfeelcs Mills, 225.

That we have succeeded no one who has watched the progress of our class will deny. In scholarship we are represented by some of the brightest students who have ever entered the doors of the institu- tion, There is no need to mention the number and the ability of our athletes as they are all well known by the reputation which they have established. In football and baseball alike, nineteen-seven has supplied more men than any other class in college, and as for basketball it will suffice to say that we have now, for two years in succession, won the class championship, something which has been done by no class before in the history of the college. But I will dwell no longer upon our achievements as it is not our custom to be conceited or boastful. The greatest problem which has ever harassed our minds, one which has tried tis almost beyond endurance, and the only task which ever came near to baffling our skill was bringing up in the right manner that bunch of humanity QFD which constitutes the class of nineteen- eight. But our difficulty has been doubled because in all their acts of greenness and freshness they have been ably UQ coached by nineteen- six. Yes, we are willing to admit that they won the baseball game, but they cheated so that they afterwards admitted conhdentially among themselves that they were ashamed of it. But how about that horn rush? We succeeded, of course, in capturing the first horn, but after nineteen-six saw that we were going to win anyhow, they assembled around those poor infants and on the pretense of coaching them, hid the horns in their own pockets until after the rush was over. Is it any wonder we could not capture another horn? Truly, oh nineteen-six, didst thou do a noble deed and one well deserving of the praise thou didst receive the next morning in the newspapers. Even if we have not been entirely successful in training nineteen-eight, I suppose we ought not to complain, nor on the other hand should we be harshly criticised, as every one knows that it is impossible to get blood out of a turnlp. In consideration of all we have accomplished in these two short years, we cannot help but feel when we think of the great genius and ability in our class that there are still greater honors in store for us in the next two years of our college course. . 50 Class of 1907 I .

H Sophomore History vvoMEN N the year 1904, when King Autumn was turning the green of the leaves to beautiful tints of crimson and gold, when old Colby was once more opening her doors to the troops of incoming students, a new dignity settled upon the women of 1907. They had become Sophomores. I' Distinguished for capability, for talent, for scholarship, and for their achievements during the previous year, they were indeed well htted to assume the new duties and responsibilities before them. In their early college history a friend QU known as 1906 took great interest in their affairs and showed them much attention. However, speedily learning college customs, they soon asserted themselves and quenched all friendly QU enthusiasm for their improvement. Those were the days of many spreads and much merrymaking, especially on Friday evenings, when, for a brief time, Mathematics ceased to trouble. At length, they made a feast for their brethren, and by much dancing transgressed the law. From this time on their bzzfweffs always waved in victory, and prosperity increased until the end of the year, and a ride to North Belgrade brought them a more complete liberty. With the coming of another year graver cares than they had yet known began to rest upon them. The number of their feastings grew less, and diligently did they apply themselves. Physics, the lion of their especial dread, was bravely attacked 5 yards of Daily Themes were written, German verbs were conqueredg and lastly, 1908 found them ready to advise and correct. Witli the cheerfulness and courage characteristic of them, have they undertaken all these duties, especially the last named, hoping that H fidelity to a righteous cause would finally be rewarded in successors worthy of nlling their honored places. Thus living in the consciousness of duties well performed, in satisfaction with their numerous successes do they look forward with eagerness to the joy of entering into that land of ease, the junior Year. 53 ,Q W W RESHMH g5 sa 04-5. 1 ff , r' ' Q A S Q Class of 1908 MEN Clzzssyells-f'Ral1l 'Rabi 'Rabi 'Rabi ,Rabi 'Rabi I Sumus duces, 'rab 'rab 'rabi Eo',uev gli TQ, sure as fate, Wbat's the matter with 1908 i OFFICERS ' jobn Francis Casey, President Harry Leonard Kilgore, Vice President Frederick A.

To be sure it takes events to make history, and nothing worth record- , ing has ever been done 'by the class of nineteen-eight. It devolves upon the best class in Colby-1907-to search out the material for this history for the simple reason that there is no one in the Freshman class capable of writing one. It is freely acknowledged that never since Colby Freshmen began the race for a diploma has there been so stupid a class from the tallest man among them right straight through to the shortest. The reason for this opinion is based on classroom statistics. About ten out of forty of them passed in Mathematics, and those men were conspicuous for the size of their roll-or double roll. Fifteen of them were able to proudly inform their friends that they were admitted to exams in German, though more than one added in a whisper that they guessed they had a pull with Dutchyf' For the sake of appearances nothing shall be said here about French, while in Latin poor Keniston lost all his chances for popularity or a pull with Dutchy by cutting out half the class. In athletics the class is as good as the average, their whole mechanism reminding one of the steam engine which has everything but BRAINS, and is able to keep on only one track at a time, so that if they get side-tracked, as some did at the time of the Freshman recep- tion, they'd follow their noses to China unless some one turned them around. It is heart-breaking for a man who believes in the high moral character of the Colby student to acknowledge that this class through- out lacks the sense of true culture and refinement. XV e have endeavored to throw over their failings as rosy a tinted light as is consistent with truth, we are blameworthy only in being too lenient, and in closing we will say that no Freshman at the end of the year shall be able to say that 1907 has not washed out, with good Kennebec water, some of the evil in him. 59 Class of 1908 VVOMEN Class Valk- 'Rab I 'Rab i 'Rabi 'Rabi 'Rabi 'Rabi Sunnis duces 'Rabi 'Rab I 'Rab i 'EIUHEV 611 Tig, Sl11'S 21.5 fate, VVbat's tbe inatter Witb 1908 I OFFICERS Anne Trafton Roberts, President Estber Houston Weeks, Vice President Florence Emily King, Secretary Avis Luella Woocls, Treasurer EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Jennie Cox Ragnbilcl Lillian Iversen Evelyn Alberta Carver, Bessie Helen jones - Bertha Harris Bangs 60 -A Members Mary Charlotte Abbott, EK, Berta Edith Baldwin, Jeannette Holmes Baldwin, Bertha Harris Bangs, EK, Inez Hazen Card, Pearl Pierce Carter, AY, Evelyn Alberta Carver, EK, Josephine Ella Clark, Lena May Clark, Helen Louise Cochrane, EK, Alice Louise Colby, AY, Susan Angelina Corbett, Grace Emogene Corthell, Jennie Cox, Helen Frances Dickinson, BLD, Elizabeth Helen Felker, Olive Annette Green, BCD, Myra Irene Hardy, , Ethel Maud Hayward, Carrie Elizabeth Hill, AY, Annie Alice Harthorne, Nina Beatrice Holmes, BED, Dorothy Claudia Hopson, Helen H unt, Ragnhild Lillian Iversen, EK, Florence Emily King, Bib, Nora Mehitable Lander, EK, VVaterville, Coos, N.

H Freshman History women y N the fall of nineteen hundred and four Mother Colby adopted into her already large family of girls fifty-two lusty young babes. These new arrivals were 'received with open arms by their older sisters and were tenderly cared for by the Sophomores, whose special charges they became. For the first few days they were very docile, doing just as they were told, but soon, seeing that they outnumbered the Sopho- mores by more than two to one, they grew bold and headstrong. The first evidence of this was shown in their flaunting of their class Colors at the horn rush and ball game and their immodest actions after the game, when they flocked to greet their brothers and adorned them with these colors. But their triumph was destined to be short-lived, for that very day these bits of baby ribbon mysteriously disappeared, In the evening they received a visit from their Sophomore sisters, by whom they were summarily dealt with. Some of them took their pun- ishment quietlyg others were so terrified that they went into hysterics, but one and all displayed their various talents and duly swore allegiance to IQO7. , Next, advised and assisted by all their aunts and uncles and offi- cious friends, some of them succeeded in having a peanut drunk. This affair caused them a good deal of trouble for they were kept busy with broom and dustpan for a week afterwards, sweeping up peanut shells in their own and the Sophomores' rooms. Later they gave a reception to their brothers, for whom they had so openly manifested their affection at the very hrst. Guarded as they were by rows of policemen, they felt secure, and spent the time in dancing until the Dean and the other chaperones arrived, after which they had to content themselves with less exciting amusements. We trust that they enjoyed the company of those of their brothers who were present even though the class president and certain others were unavoidably detained and had to send in their regrets. At the Halloween party given by the Sophomores to their baby sisters, the latter learned that wickedness never goes long unpunished, and they sorely repented of their evil ways. After having been initiated into the mysteries of Phi Chi, they greatly enjoyed the games 63 and refreshments suited to young childhood, and which the Sophomores so kindly furnished them. Since then the Freshman class has been somewhat diminished by some of its members having gone home to their mammas, unable longer to endure the separation in spite of our tender care. But those who still remain are beginning to realize that it is for their own good to recognize the superiority of the Sophomores and to submit to our authority. We can say with justice that they are the most easy-going and least troublesome class that has ever entered Colby. If they con- tinue to profit by our example and advice and learn a little self-reliance, we have some hopes that by the end of the year they will be ready to put away childish things and will be fitted to assume the cares and duties of Sophomores. 64 ,,f ' 'Ax 1 2, -Y, ITIL- Sk ,X ,K 215 ' E' J R X ' FQ ,ff ,X Y Z.

HE vacancy in the Department of Physics caused by the leave of absence granted Prof. Beck has this year been filled with the greatest success by Prof. Avid Reuterdahl. Professor Reuterdahl was born in Karlstad, Sweden, February 15, 1876. At the age of six years he came to the United States, receiving his early education in the public schools of Providence, R. I. In his seventeenth year, he entered Brown University, devoting himself primarily to mathematical, scientific and engineering subjects In 1897 he received the degree of Bachelor of Science, and after two years of graduate work in the Department of Physics, that of Master of Arts. He taught mathematics at Brown University for one year and then accepted a position in the Department of Physics and Electrical Engineering at the Providence Technical High School, where he remained for three years. In Igor he resigned this position in order to obtain a wider experience in practical engineering work. He has contributed articles to various scientific publications and is an associate member of the American Electrical Engineers. He is also a member of the following other societies, the American Chemical Society, the 145 Society of Chemical lndustry and the American Electro-Chemical Society. During the short timehe has been at Colby, Prof. Reuterclahl has won the friendship of every student, and We all congratulate ourselves that he is to be retained next year to act as head of the newly Created Department of Applied Sciences. Sonnet. .S'zzggesz'e1Z by 1fecza'z'7zg W01fziszU01'fb'J Bzuffzs Poems. O thou who now beneath this mould dost sleep, Thou who first did'st bestir the hearts of men YVith longings dormant in their hearts till then W'hen thy sweet lays into their souls did creep, The while they toiled in field or led their sheep, And sang thy songs so near to human ken, Till they grew young and joyful once again, And nightly With light hearts their Cots did seek, O Couldst thou now be living on this earth, And see the influence which thy songs have shed, Thy life would be a stronger, with no dearth Of those fair virtues which some say you fied To search for empty pleasures, hollow mirth. But for a' that all nations mourn you, dead. --A. H. D,, 1906. 146 1- 7 Xa xt. Ralph Hayward Keniston, A. B. ALPH Hayward Keniston, AB., comes to us this year as an assistant in the department of Latin. Owing to the poor health of Prof. Taylor and the increase in size and number of the classes, the need of an assistant in this department was very great. The position has been most successfuly filled by Mr. Keniston and he has already won our respect and lovelby his earnest work and hearty cooperation with the College and its activities. lVlr. Keniston was born at Somerville, Mass., July 5, 1883. He prepared for college at the Somerville Latin School and at the comple- tion of his course there, entered Harvard.

Foss Hall T the annual Commencement dinner on june 29, 1904, President lfVhite made the announcement that Mrs. VVilliam H. Dexter had presented to the College a gift of 540,000 to be used in the erection of a new ladies' dormitory. The announcement was received with enthusiasm as the need had long been felt, and much discussion ensued as to the best site for the new building. Finally, it was decided that it should be erected on the land then occupied in part by the Dutton House, on College Avenue, and plans were submitted to the committee in charge. VVork was begun the first of August, and on October 6th, soon after the opening of the fall term, a large number of students and friends of the College gathered to witness the ceremony of the laying of the corner stone. On this occasion President White read a letter from Mrs. Dexter, who was unable to be present, and Dean Berry, at Mrs. Dexter's request, placed in position the corner stone of Foss Hall. judge Percival Bonney, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, delivered the oration, and the ceremony was concluded with prayer and benecliction by Rev. A. R. Crane. The work on the dormitory was then continued and has been carried on so rapidly it will probably be completed by june and the dedication ceremony will take place Commencement week. The dormitory is of red brick with white brick trimmings. It will accommodate seventy-tive students, and contains besides, the Dean's office, a reading room, a parlor, assembly room, gymnasium, and one recitation room. Foss Hall will fill a large need and will be appreciated and enjoyed by the young ladies of Colby who will long remember with gratitude, its donor, Mrs. Williaimi H. Dexter. 149 Samuel .King Smith ' b. 1837: cl. l904 ' N August 20, 1904, Colby was called to mourn the loss of the last of the Eve noble teachers, Champlin, Lyford, Poster, Hamlin, and Smith, whose zealous devotion and untiring efforts kept the college alive at a period when it had few friends and less of funds. Professor Smith was a native of Litchfield, Maine. He was graduated from Watei'ville, now Colby College, in 1845. After teach- ing a year in Townshend, Vermont, he was chosen Instructor in Latin and Rhetoric at Waterville College for the year 1846-47. The next year he studied at Newton Theological Institution, and from 1848 to 1850 was editor of Zz'o1z's Aeiwmfe. In 1850 he became Professor of Rhetoric in Wate1'ville College. When Dr. Smith took up his work in the College the faculty consisted of five professors and one instructor, and the student body numbered less than fifty. The library was a mere handful of books, and the accommodations of both students and faculty were very meagre and inconvenient. Instruction was given in the dead languages and in mathematics, with a mere smattering of chemistry, French, rhetoric, logic, political economy and metaphysics. In order that a course in German might be added, Professor Smith volunteered to acquire and teach the language, and with this purpose in view spent the long winter vacation of 1854 with the best teachers in New York. He introduced the study of Anglo-Saxon when Harvard alone had such a course, and in making English Literature a special feature in the course of study at Colby, he preceded many older and larger colleges. As Dean of the faculty he was often called upon to perform the duties of the President, which he did with great credit. In addition toiall his other duties Professor Smith served as Librarian from 1851 to 1873. I Aside from his college duties he preached much in the churches in the vicinity of Vifaterville. By good judges who heard him in the prime of his life he was regarded as one of the foremost preachers of the State. In 1871 he was ordained to the ministry, and in the same year received the degree of Doctor of Divinity from Colby. 5 ISO I In 1892, after having been connected continuously with the college for forty-two years, Professor Smith retired from the duties of an active professorship, becoming Emeritus Professor of English. He still continued to reside in Wate1'ville, where he died at his home on College Avenue, at the age of eighty-six years and ten months. Although his strength had been failing for some years, the end came very suddenly, but without pain. Only six days before his death, he had celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of his marriage. A Doctor Smith was a firm, sincere Christian 5 a cultured and faithful teacher, a man whose earnestness of purpose, sympathy, large views and strong influence were felt by all who came in Contact with him 5 a man to whom Colby owes much.

Colby Day HEN Greek meets Greek, then comes a tug o' warg when 4 Dutch meets Dutch, then comes the lager beer. Greek met Greek on the afternoon of last October eighth, and the result was Colby, 23, New Hampshire State College, o. Dutch met Dutch on the evening of the same day and the cider in the original package came But that wasn't Colby day. It was only the background. Colby Day proper consisted of a campus full of college spirit,'and some forty or fifty enthusiastic alumni, the faculty and the student body all tied together with blue and gray ribbon. The idea originated with the Colby Club who werelooking for a fitting occasion on which to present the new grandstand and athletic field just completed, to the college. It was decided to inaugurate an annual event to be known as Colby Day, when the alumni should meet together with the undergraduate body to recall the past, prophesy the future, and engender college spirit. A large number of the alumni arrived in the city a day in advance, in order to be present at their fraternity initiations, all of which were held on October seventh. On the next afternoon Colby lined up on the new football field against New Hampshire. It was a hard-fought game and the victory was well earned. In the evening all assembled in Memorial Hall for a grand rally. The undergraduates occupied the right of the room and filled the hall with enthusiastic cheers throughout the entire evening. Mr. E. T. VVyman of the Colby Club introduced Dr. Bailey as the presiding officer. The latter spoke briefly on Loyalty to Colby, striking the keynote of the meeting. He then introduced Prof. Roberts, who gave a ringing speech which called forth applause again and again. It was a masterly work and certainly the feature of the evening. In the course of his speech he said, The University of Maine has 'three times as many boys as Colby, Bowdoin almost twice as many, and Bates perhaps half as many again. But when it comes to picking out nine or eleven men for an athletic contest, we ask no odds of any of them. According to my arithmetic, the average Colby boy is worth two or three times as much for athletic purposes as the average boy in the other Maine colleges. it it The true success of this college is, in my opinion, due to the fact that from the beginning there have been held up before successive genera- 154 tions of students the high ideals of Christian educationf, Other speakers were Holman F. Day, who read a highly interesting original poem, Dennis E. Bowman, and Dr. I. F. Hill, who, on behalf of the Colby Club, presented the new grandstand and athletic field to the college. They were accepted by President Vilhite, who, in the course of his speech told of the point Sam was to have made in his speech at the dedication of the new grandstancl. It was to have been this : The alumni have made for you Colby boys a new grandstand, and now I want' you to make a new grand stand for Colby. Stand close together and stand true, day and night, in your athletics and in your studies, and so make the new grand stand. i During the recess of five minutes, the contents of two barrels of apples were distributed by representatives from the classes of 1907 and 1908. Wlien there was no longer any danger from the flying missiles, Dr. Archer jordan gave a brief history of football at Colby, and Captain Pugsley presented to the college the two footballs which were won last year. Prof. Hatch gave a history of baseball, concluding with the statement that Colby has won the pennant as many times as all her opponents combined. Captain Coombs presented the pennant won last year, and it was unfurled amid the same cheers which helped the team to win it. After a most interesting talk by Prof. Knowlton, the first Colby day came to an end to the tune of Cheer for old Colby. Prof. Roberts was right when he said, speaking to the alumni, Your affection for Colby, which is making this atmosphere electric tonight, will kindle the Hame of love for the college in every heart. 155 A Sally Through Foss Alley The autumn days have come once more, And with them the removal Of Dutton House from where of yore It stood g but disapproval Of this arrangement grows, because To go Cunless you're friskyj To where it is from where it was You find it somewhat risky.

Qne great pile was heaped to the door-latch of a country house near lfVaterville. All within was quiet save for an occasional shriek of the wind, a hurried snore in a bedroom and the steady tick, tick of an alarm clock. Suddenly a whirr-whirr broke the silence, the snore increased to a trot, but as the alarm got under way, it started into a run g thusin eager competition man and matter broke the silence until with a last despairing ding-ding the clock stopped and Herr Marquardt starting from his sleep nudged his wife in the fourth rib below the left arm, Come, fraulein, it vas time vor you to got up and build the fire. I will have to start early. The patient wife, roused from dreams of what she would do with her money when Herr Dutchy returned from Germany, awakened to the fact that two stallions in the stable represented all the money of her inheritance, Slipping from her bed she hurriedly lit the fire and prepared the morning meal. At four o'clock, well bundled up and with gruesome ear-lappers, Herr Dutchy lowered himself from a second story window into the snow. We will not repeat his exclamations as he plunged in up to his neck. He was soon lost to his wife's sight in the swirls of snow with which he battled. As he neared the main road suddenly his footing gave way and he plunged beneath the surface. Nothing daunted he soon emerged, fiercely exclaiming, I vill not give them a cutf, At ive o'clock he was still plunging on. Twice he was lost and had to retrace his steps as best he could until he could find a familiar landmark, all the time exclaiming, I must hurry or they vill get a cut. At six o'clock his efforts had not ceased. At seven o'clock the light of a new day came twinkling out to see him. One mile more, sighed Herr Dutchy, if they get a cut this morning they vill have to take it.', At quarter of eight he was seen by students who were starting out for breakfast, breaking into a canter as he saw his goal before him. His nose was white, his eyes glowed, a large icicle stuck out from his mustache like the horn of a unicorn ready to run a hole through space and time rather than give a cut. Hal cried he as half a dozen boys took their seats at the stroke of eight, Vhere vas everbody this fine 158 morning? Mr. Libby has got zero, zero, six, four, zero. He cuts this morning so as not to be a Phi Beta Kappa man. Whei'e was Mr Casey and Mr. Osborne? They shouldn't ever play football, they never score in here. Mr. Powers has gone to Porto Rico where they don't have any snowdrifts to keep him away.-Good morning Mr. lVIcFane you was quite a stranger, glad to see you out.-You may begin Mr. Farrar. Unprepared? Vell, I will give you two zeros, one because you haven't your lesson, the other because you ought to have it.-lVIr. Whitten you may try it. Unprepared?
