It may not, perhaps, realize all the hopes of the Editors and the students, but it conies yvith- out apology. If an explanation of this is needed, it vvill be found in the method of electing assistants, and in the long- standing debt, which at once prevents the issuance of a large bool: and the purchase of better inechanical yvorlc. Nexv features have been added, new arrangements of the various departinents has been tried, and, in many respects the policy of modelling each ORACLE after the preceding one has been abandoned. The question as xvhether the ngrindsn should include the Faculty, and as yvhether they should really be grinds or inerely padding, mvill rind its answer-our answer- in the bool: itself. Human nature is very' much the same yvhether it be in the upper classes or in the Faculty. The ORACLE, accordingly, does not claim a beautiful but rather un- real respect for the eccentric or the perverse if it be found in either place. To those who have been noticed, let us give this consolation--all they are likely to get-that every lcnoclc is a boostf' At all events, xvhat is here is here, and if you are disposed to criticise, remember that our labor has been one of love. l , To GEORGE FREEMAN PARMENTER in appreciation of his ability in the classroom, and unwavering devotion to the interests of the College. We respectfully dedicate this book. 15, Elms FOREWORD . DEDTCATTON . ORACLE BOARD . FACULTY TRUSTEES .... ALUMNI ASSOCIATIONS CLASSES .... FRATERNITIES . AWARDS . . COMMENCEMENT . ATHLETICS .

Prosioferzt cmd Babcock Professor of Psychology VV'oburn High School, 18835 Brown University, 1887g Newton Theological Institute, 1890, received the degree of A.M., 1890, Pastor of the First Bap- tist Church, Somersworth, N.

Prexy is gradually getting down to the President business and in a few decades will be to Colby what Eliot is to Har- vard. His motto is, Toe the mark or walk the plank. EDWARD VVINSLOVV HALL, AM., LL.D. L1'brz1ricm cmd Emeritus Professor of Difodorrz Laingrzagcs Portland High School, 1858, Colby, 18625 Profes- sor of Modern Languages, 1866-1891, Reglstrar, 1888-19025 Librarian, 1873-1907. Teddy is an ornament to the faculty, T11at's all. He didn't think it worth while to have a new negative made, but passed in a half-tone from an old OR:XCLE. Considering the subJeet, he displayed good judginent. His loyal support of the admin- istration and pull with the co-ords are the envy and despair of the Freshmen. IO IULIAN D. Tixvnoix, A.M., LL.D. Professor of the Lorem Language and Lzfte1'ot1fL1'e Vassalboro .Academy, I86IQ Oak Grove Seminary, 18625 X!V2.'ECl'V1llC Acade1ny,'18645 Colby, 18685 Asso- ciate Professor at Colby, 1868-1873, Received the Degree of A.M., I87I5 Degree of LLD., Colby, 19015 Professor of Latin since 1873. Indy doesn't go in for athletics, excepting exercises in Latin, but his ability and square dealing have won for him the respect and esteem of the whole student body. Dabbling in stocks is his only weak spot, but even in that he can give I. P. Morgan points-of syntax. JAMES lN1LL1rxM BLACK, PHD. Professor of History and Political Economy Baltimore City College, 18855 Johns Hopkins University, 18885 received degree of Ph.D., 18915 Professor of History and Political Science at Georgetown College, ISQI-1892, Associate Professor of Economics at Oberlin College, 1892-1894, mem- ber of the American History Assoc1ation5 the Amer- ican Economic ASSOCIHYIOIIQ the Maryland Histor- ical Society5 the Council of the Maine Historical Soc1ety5 Professor at Colby since 1894. The Doctor -says this picture isnlt Academic, but he ought to be satisfied ifkit connects him with, the germs homo. Most of us are. I. WV1lliam has probably more crochets than any other professor, which is saying much, but he makes up for them in other ways. His courses are among the best in the curriculum, in spite of too scanty outside reading, short articles and easy exams. ARTHUR IEREM1A1e1 ROBERTS, A.M. Professor of Rhetoric and f1z.st1'uctor in Elocutzon Limerick Academy, 18855 Colby, 18905 graduate student at Harvard University, 1899-1900, at Colby since 1890. Rob is unquestionably the most popular man on the Faculty. His blustermg way is nothing more than a large, well-devel- oped bluff, and Miss Robinson keeps that from becoming obnoxious. Rob is peculiar in that ministers are the only ones who can't blufl him. II -.5 f ,Wm f wal! ,A M4- iv y, ay!

Dutchy is famous among Colby men for his absolute impar- tiality, his hard-headed common sen d ' ' se, an his brilliant wit. It is unfortunate that his modesty seldom allows him to dis- play the same. 101-IN I-IEDMAN, A.M. Professov' of the Romance Languages Caribou High School, 18913 Colby, 1895, I n- structor in Modern Languages, 1895-1896, Instructor in Latin and Greek, 1896-18993 University of Paris, 1899-19003 Associate Professor of Romance Lan- guages, 1900-1902, Professor of Romance Languages since 1902. Johnny speaks IZW languages, and it isn't safe to roast a man with so many tongues at his' cornmand. 'fl-Ie is little but he's wise,-he's a wonder for his size and mcidentall i Y, he.is.an enthusiastic supporter of athletics and all Colby activities. CLARENCE I-IAYWARD W1-11TE, A.M.

Cassiel' acquired distinction by his famous home the Senior faculty baseball game of 190-4, and -he remarkable for his forcefulksnappy style in speaking run in is still U. Colby is his Alma-azmty and will probably be his Aluia-granny, also. In this picture, he conscientiously chose wooden a background for his head. I2 HUGH Ross PIATCH, A.M.

Hughie's experience as a Fisher of men has greatly aided him in enticing information from successive Freshman classes. His feat of keeping a healthy cow for four years on nothing more than she could pick up on 30369469 square feet of land has made him justly famous. GEORGE FREEMAN PARMENTER, P1-1.D. Zldferrzfll Professor' of C7Z6'7'1'L'ISIi7':tl Needham High School, Massachusetts, 1896, Mas- sachusetts State College, IQOO, Fellow in Chemistry at Massachusetts State College, IQOO-IQOI, Assistant Chemist at United States Experiment Station, Kingston, R. I., IQOI-IQO2, Instructor in Chemistry Brown University, 1902-1903. Professor of Chem- istry at Colby since 1903. Parmenter is 3. hlassachusetts Aggie, but do11't let that deceive you. He has escaped' the fossil club, and lack of hair is his only failing. GRACE ELLA BERRY, A.M. Dea-it of the W011'1-CILJS College West Boylston High School, 1888g Mount Hol- yoke College, 18935 Instructor in Mathematics, Westerii College for VVomen, 1893-1897, graduate student and Assistant in Mathematics, Mount Hol- yoke, 1897-18995 received Degree of A.M., 18995 graduate student at Cornell Summer School, 1899, Instructor in Mathematics and Physics, VVestern College for Woineii, 1899-19003 Associate Professor of Physics, Mount Holyoke, IQOO-1902, Dean of WOIIICIIJS College, Colby, since 1902. The Dean is the last person in the world whom the ORACLE would care to Sass, for she has a big brother up at the Bricks who can lick his weight in Wildcats. And also, is she not the dispenser of hospitality at the Hall? . I3 W Z f ,'f ' f Z- . E 1 1 4 I 1- fp 2 E 1 J 7 1 If fr f , V9 ' 7 X 1 All 1 4 y 1 aa, ,Q fJ57.,,,..

He may look pleasant when you Hunk, but after the fmals he'll cut you out without the least compunction. S'chlugs .is all right, except for much greater attention to the faxr sex than becomes the possessor of an acreage of hairless epi- derrnis. j011N VVHITMORE, P1-LD Associate Professor of Physics and Astronomy Hillhouse High School, 1881, Cornell Prepara- tory School, 1882, Yale, 1886, Instructor in Physics, Humboldt CI0WaD High School, 1886-1887, Instructor at the University of Minnesota, 1887- 1889, graduate student and Sloane Fellow at Yale, 1889-1892, received the Degree of Ph.D. from Yale, 1892, Instructor in Physics at Yale, 1892-1894, Prin- cipal of Lynn High School, 1894-1898, graduate stu- dent at Yale, 1898-1901, Principal of Stamford High School, 1901-1905, Leiberg University, 1905,I-Iarvard University, 1905-1906, member of the American Chemical Society, the German Chemical Society, the Connecticut Academy of Arts and Sciences, Associate Professor of Physics and Astronomy at Colby, 1906-1907. Feasable'i is a sober, long-faced cuss, with a wel1-rnodu- lated voice and abundant hair. Long familiarity with the stars has had its influence on his career, and he will go into eclipse in June.

Simp looks to be quite a man, but appearances are so deceiving. The best thing he ever did was to lecture a class of ministers on the evils of cribhing. We nearly forgot to mention .that he is Registrar-r and Secretary of the Faculty.

Senior History MEN Old Colby truly had cause to rejoice when, in the fall of nineteen- three, the class of nineteen hundred and seven swarmed over her cam- pus to assist in maintaining the old standards of the college and to bring her new honor and glory. That the class has succeeded, no one who has watched its progress will deny. In scholarship, we have been represented by the brightest students who ever entered Colby's doors, for when Honorary junior Parts were awarded it was found that we had more than the required number of ninety percenters, a thing which .has never before, in the history of the college, been equalled. In athletic lines we have more than done our part. In football, track and baseball, alike, we have always had more than our share of the men, and as for basketball, it will sufhce to say that we have won two class championships, have been in the finals for three years and have been defeated only twice since entering college, a record unequallecl since the game was first introduced. It is, however, above our dignity to be boastful and conceited, and consequently I will dwell no longer upon this side of our achievements. VVhen entering upon our Sophomore year we certainly had troubles on account of the poor material in IQOS. VVe succeeded, however, in bringing up the babes as little children should be brought up with the exception of the fact that we entirely neglected their scholarship and the consequence was that not one of their number was able to attain the rank required for junior parts. Wfe blame ourselves for this. Now we stand ready to part with our dear Alma Mater. It seems a short time since we, as boys, entered but we trust that our four short years of diligent work will enable us to graduate as men, of whom Colby will ever be proud, and of whose fame she will hear as we pass into the world of toil. As we look upon the sad days of parting we feel confident in saying that in college, we have never been surpassed in any line, and as we enter upon the future before us we will always be loyal to the dear old home of our college days.

CLASS COLORS: Gray and Brown 26 Senior History WOMEN Four years have passed since we entered Colby's portals -a gay, fun-loving group of girls. Many of the pleasures and some of the pains of college life have come to us, but ah! the pleasures have far outweighed the pains. Vlfe did have a hard struggle with Freshman mathematics, especially with the problems of that black book which had never before been seen at Colby, but in our second year Reuter- dahl came-need the historian say more? The Sophomore year and Physics certainly held no te1'1'01's for us. We had time and energy to initiate the Freshmen in the good old-fashioned way into the time- honored rites and mysteries of Phi Chi. The Junior and Senior years, though not wholly rosy paths of ease, yet did lack the thorn of the extra course which succeeding classes must add to our required four. As Seniors we introduced a new custom into our college: that of wearing cap and gown to first chapel and during the whole Senior year. lfVe also, the first class thus guilty, out-numbered our brothers of 1907. As we did not desire such distinction, many were the laughing contests held to see which one of us should leave college and thus make the numbers equal. Now the time has come when we must say farewell to the dear col- lege halls. W'e, the last class to be welcomed by Sam, de ole janitorf, have learned a college loyalty, true and unchanging from his inspiring example. W'e are sorry that we cannot have at our Senior chapel the little parting speech and wholesome advice Sam always gave the grad- uating class. Colby received us, as girls 5 now she sends us forth into the world, women-having impressed upon us all the lofty ideals that make for pure womanhood. Feeling that the enlarged mental powers, the high moral and spiritual ideas, and the knowledge of human duty and obligation we have gained here, must make our lives count only for good, we look into the futurewith optimistic eyes. 27 Biographies of Senior Class MENS, MYRON EUGENE BERRY, ATU, Provi- dence, R.

Every year has seen some new scheme concocted to upset our peace of mind. A few of these schemes would not be amiss but heaps of 'em would cause even the best natured to shrug his shoulders and turn eyes that forebode evil toward the powers that bef, Wfhat has become of that 'ilunior easel' we so frequently heard of and longed to experience while in the two lower classes? Juniors now, we must confess that the term has lost its significance, for we are to-day doing the hardest work of our course. Vlfe had FRESHMAN ease if a comparison between the two classes may be alloweclg but that may be a pessimistic point of view. This we know, dead fish can float down, but it takes live ones to go up, a stream. Vtfe have stemmed the strong current and made good time on the journey. To-day we are stronger than ever and Ht for the arduous duties that we meet on every hand. We have not fainted at the announcement, from time to time, of more courses nor have we become discouraged because some privileges that we should have had have been taken from us. We feel that we have done right. lf f'Patient preparation is permanent powery' we are scheduled to cut a big figure out in the busy world. 'W e have not .contented ourselves with one line of activity, but have been hearty supporters in every phase of college life. Especially is this true of athletics. From our nrst day in college down to the present we have had more than our share of men on every team. The very fact of our having the cap- taincy of all the teams this year proves the truth of this statement. YN ith three years of strenuous endeavor as a background, we longed to paint a beautiful picture of the one year remainingg but at present we dare not, for from the seat of authority we already hear the faint echoes of another extra course for Seniors. But since these things are so have we not the right to consider that nineteen hundred eight as a class is not only one of enduring quality but one of superior qual- ity as well?

As we are such a learned class, it is but fitting that there should be a learned exposition of this fact. Newton's First Law, abridged, reads thus: A body at rest remains at rest, unless acted upon by some exter- nal, unbalanced forcef' It is evident that the college would have remained motionless if 1908 had not appeared. Unbalanced force? Certainly. 1907 tried in vain to oppose us. Its influence was so slight that in the absence of delicateinstruments, it inevitably remained unmeasured. Second Law: Change of momentum is in the direction in which the unbalanced force acts. Cf course we had our way. Of course all things gave before our pressure. Did not the great Newton live only to foretell the necessity of our success? We moved the col- lege whither we would. Third Law: f'To every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. 'We were rewarded for our noble deeds. YN e abolished hazing and were marked out by the admiration of the faculty, nay, of the world. VVe instituted the I-lallowe'en festival and were repaid by the joys of ourselves and all concerned. VVe shone brilliantly in the class-room and were distinguished by a great tribute from the faculty-they judged it necessary to give us five Junior courses, lest we moulder in mental inactivity after preparing the usual four courses. Respected Newton, we do homage to the foresight which, piercing two centuries, rested upon our achievements and pointed them out for the waiting world. 51 THE WILLOVVS Q 5 iq y7J wi!

Sunset. Ah, sad is the thought that these days are the last of our boy- hood. VVhen, in the Indian Summer, the sun is once more in the heavens,- Then will our youth have departed, and we shall be staid upperclass- men. Staid upperclassmen, whose pathway, tho' strewn o'er with loveliest roses, Yet, sees forever before it the grey peaks of CHANCE in the distance. Two years ago come the autumn we came here to Colby as Freshmen. High were the hopes of the college, and hard have we tried to fulfill them. Sophomores! Well, as for them, at the horn rush and baseball we beat them: Grapes we did bring to ,O7, and we did have our Freshman Reception: Once in the dawn of the morning we scared the Sophs back to their blankets. just for excitement we teased them, we usu'lly abode by the customs. Loyal we were to the college,-toiled not for 'o8 altogether! NVE were never ashamed of the lime pot, we rubbed down the men and were faithful Last year the Freshmen were driven, and worked for the fear of dis- aster! Now we are ruling the Freshmen, the poor, little innocent Freshmen. Strange is this thick-pated ,IO class, it can't seem to get used to col- lege. Harsh have we been in some cases,-our plans have somewhat for- saken,- just in the interest of honor, to preserve an old-time tradition. Naught, we are fearing, however, will come of our earnest endeavor.

Nevertheless, when next fall comes, have mercy, oh, Lord, on the col- lege! Somewhat of fame have we garnered in Held and also in classroom. Joys galore have been with us, and somewhat indeed of misfortune, One by one in this short time have classmates quietly left us,- Left us and gone, and are lost in the grey hills that always outline the horizon. Lost like the oak leaves that fall in the winterg who, forsaking their breth'ren, VVait for the spring, -but are buried soon 'neath a Hurry of snow- Hakes.

Feared they not the valorous Sophomores,- Put them to the tallest timbers,- Caused them to abandon hazing. Till one evening, just at sunset There were cries and wild excitement For the Sophomores, the doughty, Longed for peanuts, longed intensely But with crafty wiles the Freshmen Seized upon a steed of iron VVhich would bear them with their peanuts To a nearby village, Fairfield. There within a mighty building Did they find a place of safety. There they ate their many peanuts, Then they rose and chose a leader, Chose a leader strong and steadfast. Soon again, they, ,sembling gathered Clad in all their richest raiments Robes of white and misty fabric. Thither to the place of meeting Stole their brothers from their strongholds, Stole they through the deep'ning darkness, 'Scaped the hands of watching foemen, Passed the hours in song and feasting. So with work and play commingled Sped the pleasant days of autumn, Came the winter with its pleasures, VVith its gleaming, frozen river, Covered with the blithesome skaters. Came soon now the month of roses, Came the time of going homeward There to gain the all-mighty sheckels That would speed them on their journey, 60 O11 their Way to Sophomore wisdom. NN ith Septeinbens days of autumn Hack tl1ey came to classic Colby, Back to View with fear appalling A monster dread, of frightful aspect A monster dread, whose name is Physics Found he would not turn and rend them, Found the Yale man ever-smiling As he watched their toil stupendousg And this class of mighty valor Thus does great Minerva honorg Go ye on, O mighty Sophomoresg Go ye on to junior wisdom, Go ye on to Senior snmmitsg Then in arts and sciences learned, Go ye forth to many cities There to fight and conquer ever, Conquer in the name of Colgisv. 5 61 THE CHAPEL A 1 42? 5 :gifs 2 ff k 2 x fi X2 N ' rw Class of 1910 MEN President, Henry Britt Moor V'lC6-P7'6S1fdC7'Zf, George Neal Dean Secretary, John Moore Maxwell T7'ECZS'LH'G7', Earle Hartwell Brownlow EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE George Neal Dean lra Walter Richardson Ralph Nelson Good Charles Lee Haskell F rank lvVoodbridge Carey CLASS YEIsLZ'Ral1l 'Rahl 'Rahl ,lol 'Rahl 'Rahl ,R3l1l.',IO 'Rahl 'Rahl ,Rah!

Hear his harpers softly playing,- Zephyrs are his skilful harpers, And they play up in the treetops. See his silver liv'ried pages As they bring his gorgeous mantle, Run and fetch his morning mantle, Throw his glory-robes about him. Hear the rustle of his garments As he rises in his grandeur, Steps upon his throne in heaven,- Lights the city with his presence, lfVith the glory of his presence. But a frown soon crossed his Visage, Swept away all joy and brightness, And he cried with voice of thunder: VVhat is this on Colby Campus, This new blot of deep green verdure, This unheard-of aggregation? I am filled with deepest sorrow, Yea, for very shame T hide mel' Then he donned his robes of mourning. And he veiled the chapel windows Wliile the Freshmen were at chapel. September 24, 1 906 Then the silv'ry queen of heaven CVVho in night rules o'er the cityj, By her consort was commanded That she in her darkest mantle Cn this night should be adorned. And she deepened all the shadows, 66 And she set the wraithes to wailing, Set the wild, weird wraiths to wailing. Made the 'Io men snuggle closer, Made them wake, and quake, and shiver Then that dear old hymn of college Phi Chiis in her ancient glory, As 'twas sung with fiendish ardor, Took them out and set them dancing,- Made them sing,-and take a whipping, Meekly take a good sound whipping, Thank '09, and never murmur. O'er the city, come the morning, Dawn arose in robes of glory. No, he couldzft keep from smiling Wlieii he saw the meek-faced Freshmen. September 28, 1 906 Once more, darkness o'er the landscape. Broken loose that gang of Freshmen, And the night queen in her sorrow Veiled her light with inky blackness. Some lads found the halls of splendor, Found the lighted halls of splendor ,- But some others did not End them, For at home they lay asleeping, Or, as prisoners, in Qakland Walked the murky streets at midnight, Wfalked the streets in early morning. January 1 5, 1 90 7 Then there came the Freshman rumpus. They were tired of being Freshmen, Thought as Seniors to be treated, As the Class of Nineteen-Seven! So they climbed the winding staircase, Fixed it up with boards and bedsteads, And they say 308 assisted. Then, with valor UD rarely equalled, Like a child behind its mother, Threw down rocks and bits of bottles. 67 Brave, ah, brave indeed, those Freshmen! Rather were they very foolish. Very foolish little Freshmen. January 1 6. 1 907 In the grey light of the morning, Wfhen the queen her spouse was Waking, There was terror 'mongst the Freshmen. With a fiendish howl of anger, Nineteen-Nine had sprung upon them, And had punished them severe1y,- ' Had most mercilessly whaled them For their wretched misdemeanor. Now are Freshmen meek as Moses,- Meek as Moses in the rushes. And the dawn awakes in glory, In a great, glad, gleam of glory. 68 Class of 1910 ' WOMEN Prbsidezzt, Margaret Scott Fielden V766-P7'6SY'dC7lf, Sarah Louise Snow Secretary, Edith Simpson Lord T7'UC'l5ZfH'f'7', Eva VValker Eastman EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Grace Emma Vifliittier Gertrude May lqieneli Rose Maude Pillsbury Mollie Moulton Maude Allan Weed CLASS YELL:'Ral1!

Boldly up to the gates of old Colby came this infant throng and demanded admittance. Their arrogant ways amused us and we laughed at their frequent exclamations of: just see our new dresses! They are almost long. We are Colby women now. We are the Class of I9Io. It was too true. Ambition in the shape of cer- tain misguided parents had urged these little ones to leave their blocks and dolls and go forth to seek a college education. Soon after their arrival we saw them whispering together. Know- ing the ways of children we were sure these little maids were planning mischief. We watched, and soon found they had bought bushels of peanuts and hidden them away for a future feast. lfVe knew how unsuitable such fare was for very young people, so to prevent any danger to the wayward children we ate the peanuts ourselves. Some time they will realize the kindness of this act. 'fWhere ignorance is bliss ,tis folly to be wise, said a page. Look- ing into the self-satisfied faces of these Freshmen, we see they are still in the land of blissful ignorance and we cannot but grieve for the awakening which must come before they begin to gain wisdom. This sad event will probably be far in the future. Now they imagine that the man wise in mystic symbols, in sines, cosines, and f'iniinity, is try- ing to teach them a new puzzle and that stern man who frowns so darkly upon them is teaching them verses to say to admiring friends when school is done. VVe have tried with words of advice, we have tried by example stronger than precept to teach these Freshmen the duties and responsibilities that will devolve upon them as Sophomores. Now we can only hope that as they follow in our way some of the glory of our onward progress will still linger to light their infant foot- steps. I 71 THE PRESIDENT,S HOUSE 244.

Let us sing again of Colby Ere we end our college days. ,Twas a happy life we led 'Neath her elm-trees bending low, And the hours have quickly sped, One by one we watched them go. Till as Seniors now we stand And our hearts beat warm and true, Wliile we gather here to-day Wliile we praise our Gray and Blue. Now the suninier wind is sighing And the river Whispers low, And the river Whispers low, Wliile the last sad hours are flying g Soon from Colby we must go. Still as classmates we may meet On her canipus green and fair, Still her praises there repeat. Sounding on the suninier air Though We'll soon be far away- Yet our hearts beat Warm and true Wliile We gather here to-day, Wliile we praise the Gray and Blue. i Poeni FENWICK L.

W7 e see so much that is dear, So much to keep us hereg The past in our parting reigns supreme The future is nothing but a dream. Colby, our Colby, Ott will our thoughts come back to thee, Dear will the memories ever be. Colby, our Colby, Loyal and true, we'll hold thee our Alma .Mater Well learn from the duties done, Take courage from victories won, But now we look back on our glad college days, And think of regret of the parting ways.

In this city he received his preparation for col- lege, entering Yale in 1882 and grad- uating with the degree of Bachelor of Arts in 1886. After completing his col- lege course, he taught in Minneapolis for one year and then returned to Yale, where for two years he was a graduate student and Sloane fellow. In I8Q2, he received the degree of Doctor of Philos- ophy from his'AI11za .Mater and for the two years following was instructor there. P rom 1894 to 1898, Prof. VVhit- more taught Physics at the Lynn Classi- cal I-Iigh School, and then again resumed graduate work at Yale for three years. In 1905 he went to Ger- many, where he studied in the famous University at Leiburg. Since coming to Colby, Professor 'Whitmore has been untiring in his efforts for the betterment of the Physics department. 'Wordsworth a la Mode One, term in Colby College May teach you more of man, Of moral evil and of good, Than all the sages can. In Recitation Hall There is a professor in college, Whose head is filled chock full of nollege. As if in recompense God deprived him of sense, And so he's a Prof. in a college- There was a professor called Dutchy Wfhose feelings were pretty d- tutchy,- So he said to his Frau . I will not allau My foes to take prizes,-not mutchy. I62 The 1906 Baseball Championship Colby students have been so accustomed to their athletic representa- tives doing noble work, that our winning of the baseball champion- ship seemed but a perfectly natural outcome. Xfvllfill the Colby nine first donned regimentals last Spring the members appreciated that heroic work had to be done. As they cast about for a careful estimate of opposing teams it was very apparent that there were giants in the land. And baseball gossip declared these giants had figured to a nicety how Colby stock selling at par when the season opened would gradu- ally decline until it should sink valueless in a panic blacker than any pictured by Mr. Boston Lawson in his celebrated production Friday, the I3fl1.H But quietly and unostentatiously our unique john-I beg pardon, Captain Coombs-who later pitched the world's record game, went forward with his training, patiently perfecting the work of his men. He, too, heard the boasts of opponents but he heeded not. An old guide in one of Poe's tales said to a verbose professor with a tone of disdain, Much book but little know. That our men knew and would use their knowledge at the proper time we had not the smallest doubt. ' May 9th was the date of the first intercollegiate game. Prior to that we had played five games, four of which had been won by Colby. XV hat would come to us on the above day when the centuries of pres- tigeu by virtue of having been first foundedn- looked down upon us on the Bowdoin diamond? That was the question-for a very short time only. Victory was ours. just a week later our nine again stood upon a foreign field. Wlio could have censured our men had they quailed. For is it not on that very campus that conclusions are arrived at as to the number of mills the Maine tax-payers must pay for its support. But Colby carried another sort of mill that day and it was not long before her opponents got into the hopper. And the gristl An expert miller could not have told whether the Hour was from one taking the BS., SB., Ag., or CM. course. Colby built the bon-fire that night. The one by the banks of the Penobscot was not lighted. Thus passed the days until we went to see the celebrated spindle city of the Androscoggin. It was a pleasure to look upon those lads. But consideration for others has always been Colby's motto-and it was deemed wise to grant them one victory that they might appreciate the almost constant exhilaration of our team. But why linger. lfVe hasten to the closing scenes. By the 20th of June, Colby had won twelve of the ifteen games which she had played. One more was necessary as Bowdoin had tied for the cham- pionship. The neutral diamond of Portland was chosen as the battle- ground and june 2 5th was the date. But there was no battle-it was scarcely a stirring engagement. At its close the telegraph ticked the following significant story: Colby 6, Bowdoin o. Colby had won the championship, and a reception not scheduled in the official commence- ment program, was held on the arrival of the evening train from Port- land, under the elms of our dear old campus. 163 wr Ye Plugg'er's Cogitation or Soliloquy BEING AN HUBIBLE IMITATION or YE EXCELLENT BTASTER SI-IAI Es PE.-xRE s HAM LET To plug or not to plug,-that is the question, Wliether 'tis nobler in the mind to study 'When learned doctors give examinations, Gr to entrust our troubles to small papers And by skilled cribbing end them? To plugg to cribg No more, and by a crib to say we end The heartache and the thousand weary sighs That- grinding's heir to, ,tis a consummation Devoutly to be wished. To grind, to crib, To crib, perchance be caught, ay, therels the rub, For in the exam what unthought things may happen Wliile we are shuffling 'round the double roll Must give us pause, there's the respect That makes calamity of too much cribbing. For who would bear the quips and scorns of Rob The Dutchman's cross, and proud Black's contumely, The wrongs of unloved Pimp and Chester's sway The insolence of Prexy and the spurns The patient STUDENT of the unworthy takes When by judicious cribbing he could make Phi Beta Kappa, and who would study bear To sigh and struggle 'neath the midnight lamp But that the fear of dread discovery, Of Faculty decree, and banishment VV ith no hope of returning, puzzles the will And makes us rather bear those ills we have Than Hy to others that we know not of? Thus CONSCIENCE does make pluggers of us all And thus the native hue of connrmed idleness Ts sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought. A Colby Song Air-North Atlantic Squadron All up to cheer for dear old Colby, A rousing cheer for dear old Colby, We're here to spur you on to victory, On to victory, on to victory.

A X 164 Eventide Out in a glowing western sky, The ruddy clouds of gold are hung :- The music of the dying breeze Is sweeter than Apollo's song. How the tall palms gently clasp Their long, gaunt, restless hands! The weary traveller seeks their shade And hears the song of other lands. Lo! Silence deep and sudden falls, And dark-robed night with murky wings Slips in,-and quickly o'er the sky Her dusky, sombre mantle flings 3 - From her deep girdle draws the stars And flings her handfuls far and wide: They cover all her sombre robe And deck her glittering crown beside. They fill the heavens with golden light, A guard o'er sea and island keep, And in those silent, southern seas, Bathe their reflection in the mighty deep The traveller gazes far beyond- He hears the light waves lap the sands 5 Beholds the sea, and feels the breeze Kissing his fevered brow and hands. Over him steals a sudden calmg A long, long line of fancies strange F lit through the chambers of his brain In rapid and incessant change. A home 'mid old New England hills . A dusty road . . . a setting sun . A group of workers plodding home . . An old gray church with vines o'er-run A dear, familiar face he sees .... Then many faces, stained with tears, And lips that utter sad goodbys. A strain of music soft, he hears . . Faintly . . . the distant curfew rings And lo! A tide of deep, sweet thoughts Bears the worn traveller to the land of dreams' A. B HOLWAY O7 165 Evening at the Tropics The sun's last rays the nether clouds have tinged with saffron light, And I've Watched an opal sea till 'tis faded from my sight. Evening steals with noiseless footsteps o'er the distant hills of gray, VV'hile the sweet song of the nightingale has tokened the close of day Then the spicy zephyrs blowing make the soul that in nie lies,- And I gaze with restless longing till I see the Cross arise. Southern Cross, ol1 Southern glory! halo of the tropic eve! Never again will I thy four dear signals leave, For when thou standest in thy beauty in the Southern sky apart, Thou speak'st to nie of heaven, and 'tis evening in my heart. A. M.

The theme, well, that is worth it, too. lt is the fifth spasm of VVordsworth,s 'fQde.,' VVe were scheduled to recite it. Here it is: li Our birth is but a sleep and a forgetting: The soul that rises with us, our life star, Hath had elsewhere its setting, And cometh from afar: Not in entire forgetfulness, And not in utter nakedness. But trailing clouds of glory do we come' From God, who is our home. Heaven lies about us in our infancy! Shades of the prison house begin to close Upon the growing boy 5 But he beholds the light, and whence it Hows, He sees it in his joyg The youth, who daily farther from the east Must travel, still is Nature's Priest, And by the vision splendid ls on his way attended, At length the man perceives it die away, And fade into the light of common day. The bell had just finished ringing, when Rob strutted in, looked crossly at the boys, banged his books down on the window, and kicked off his rubbers. just then Keyes tiptoed in. Rob looked at him with pleased antici- pation. K' Wfhy didn't you get here earlier, Mr. Keyes ?,' The bell-ringer was late about ringing the first bellf' XWell, now, Mr. Keyes, that's likely to happen any day, so you just say to yourself, 'Now as likely as not that bell ringer will be late. Guess Fd better start' Oh, don't be so stupid V' he 'concluded sav- agely, as he saw Keyes smile. He snapped open his Vifordsworth and looked fiercely around for a victim. VV'ell, Mr. Mitchell, recite the verse you learned for to-day. Mitchell rose uncertainly and began, but left out the fourth line. Rob looked disgusted. Sit down! he blustered. Mr Thompson V' Thompson looked frightened, and someone whispered. He didnyt get the right word and started in,- 0ur life is but a sleep and a for- getting- Hmpf! Wfhy don't you learn it, Mr. Thompsoniw The class laugh. Oh, l guess you're right, after all. Especially about the sleep part of it. He tried to look pleasant. Tommy had enough, and carelessly sat down on the arm of his chair, which Young had prepared for him. Rob turned on Taylor. Can you recite, Mr. Taylor? he asked sharply. Jude got as far as the fourth line all right. Then he con- tined: But trailing clouds of glory do we come From God-Cur Father Qreverentiallyj. All laugh. W7hy in the world dozft you learn this, Mr. Taylor? Go out and learn ity' Qvigorouslyj. T can learn it in here. VVon't have you in the class ln Rob snapped. Jude looked scared but kept his seat. Come, Mr. Merrillf' Rob spoke with satisfaction. He knew his quarry. Smoker got as far as the shades of the prison house and balked. Rob looked happy, and proceeded to wade into Merrill. Wl1y can't you recite this PM Thought I could 'before the class, Smoker growled. Aw, nonsense! Fm too e,1'pe1'17e1'ztecl to believe that. If you can't learn, itls no use coming in here Qthreateninglyj. Lovett came next and went as far as the youth who daily travelled from the east. Then he stumbled: The youth who farther-who farthest. Rob scowled. Sit down! he stormed, and the girls looked really frightened. Might's well be all wrong as nine-tenths right. It's only people who are all right who arc all right. Having vented enough spleen on the boys, he glanced fiercely at the girls and shifted his attack to them. Miss Card l he called. Miss Card went through it in a sing-song. The boys laugh. 'tVVhy are they laughing, Miss Card? Rob asked, unpleasantly. Fizz not laughing Qwith indignationj. The class, I niean!', Oh, I don't known Qdisappointedlyj. 'Whfe-el, with considerable asperity, Usit down and think it over. Rob then called on Miss Beverage, Miss Fassett', and,Miss 'Eastman and got thoroughly floored. He concluded to retreat and turned over the leaves of his book while the class drew a long breath and settled back to take it easy. 'fWork next time on the sonnet !', he snapped. 'Scorn not the son- net'-page 724. He reads it, while Smoker proceeds to doze, and Libby makes signals to Miss VValker. hln this Wfordsworth has named the er-greatest poets in literature.

Guess you'd better learn this sonnet, toof' Class groans and noise rouses him. 1 178 Now, if you'll read this sonnet, Mr, Taylor! Taylor reaches for his neighbor's book. Rob scowls. XfVhere is your book, Mr. Taylor? he asked fiercely. Up in Skeowlieganf, Rob looks disgusted, while boys stamp and laugh. Miz Merrill, when did Spenser live ? Smoker woke up and made a stab. Fourteenth century. K'Then you don't know whether he lived before 1492 or not? Don't know much about it, Smoker mumbled. f'Well, I suppose you know Columbus discovered America ? Qsarcastically.j Rob gloats over names in the sonnetz. 'KGreat names. VVorth a lot to learn them. He speaks of the small luteg lure Qfiercelyj. Pro- nounce it, Mr. Taylorf' Lame, Taylor answers blandly, and Rob looks sour. 'Witla Camoens,' and so forth' Camoezzs. You'll have to learn to pronounce thatf' he announced with satisfaction. Smoker snored, and Rob borrowed a watch, looked at it, and pro- ceeded to give out some more lesson. Read that Lamb poem. Learn something about Lamb-the one who assisted lllary Qadmiringlyj. The class smiles. Make an outline of Gray's poem, too. Guess youlll have enough to do-if you do all 1 want you to, he added as an afterthought. VVhen do we meet again ? Rob bangs down the windows, and growls about the schedule. Gives me pleasant surprise, now and then, to prepare for one class and find another waiting here.

As she marches in her grandeur, Every tree obeisance sways, Natures kingdom does her honor From its flelds and forest-maze. But too soon her rule is ended, -All its beauties passed away, And the AL1tL11ll1l'S royal splendor ls a thing of yesterday. Then the queen goes unattended, Of her state and power bereaved, On her brows a faded garland, Round her feet are withered leaves.

Some have nightcaps on their heads and some have slippers on their feet. No, those are tassel caps to keep the ears warm, and moccasins to keep the feet warm. The young people are going snowshoeing. A tall couple leads the way, so that they can see the surrounding country and so that the rest can see to fol- low them. H. Wfhy is that boy kneeling on the snow so much? Ts he a devout man? No, he is not praying, he is fixing a strap on a girl's snow- shoe. lt breaks many times. It is too bad they are getting so far behind. HT. But what do we see now? ls it a windmill whirling around in the snow? No, those revolving sails are snowshoes. Some one has fallen down. , See! Now the arms appear from the snow, now the body and at last a Bonney head comes forth. TV. JWl1o is that resting on his back on the hilltop? lt is the Head man and he is 'not resting. He seems to have trouble with some long sticks tied to his feet. Everyone moves out of the way as the sticks make big circles in the air. The man rolls on this side and on that side, then with one big eHort, he turns a half somersault and lands feet first on the ground. V. Wliere did the man learn to do this? In northern Maine jump- ing over stone piles. VVhat are those sticks called? They are called skees. People slid down hills and even slid over low barb wire fences on them. VT. Wlio are those little people going hand in hand up the hill? They are the two Cs, he wears her tam-o-shanter and she Wears his cap. They seem very happy. VH. But who is coming now? lt is a chaperon. What is a chap- eron? A chaperon is one who leaves the chaps alone. This one does,- he does as he would be done by. He is now talking to a little girl who has not Dunn by her. He is talking about the Ladies' Home journal and telling her how to kill pet cats without hurting them. VIH. VVhat house is this the people are entering? It is the house of a German and his Frau. They greet the people at the door. All go in and sit clown. Some are thirsty. The host said to his son, 184 H Water Mr. Tubbsl' and the son did. All the boys sit on the sofa around a big picture book which they hold on their knees. They all help to turn the leaves and the chaperon tells about the pictures. TX. Are the.people going home now? No, they are going to the dining-room to have a regular feast-sandwiches, pancakes from Berlin with jelly inside, cake with frosting on top and in the middle, apples, nabiscoes, candy, and ice cream all disappeared. Some dis- appeared under tlie table into the pockets of that cute little P00- P- Gould. , X. But when are the people going home? They are going now, tho' some stay to ride back. One has a frozen toe and another is very tired. Qscar John Crockett Tubbs is a humane man, he drives the girls home in coach and four. He has not had a ride before this winter, excepting, of course, on the bakery Wagon, so he keeps on riding, coming back to meet those on foot' and carrying them home. XI. VVhat time did the people get home? They returned in time to break the Sabbath gently to the Dean. End of Lesson I 185 DA I Tales In and Out of School Chandler fleading the C.

In all that time he has never deigned to countenance a co-ord. We thought he never would, but he has deceived us. Miss Knowlton was, for varietyis sake, wasting on song a little breath that might have been used in still further wearing out the English lang'uage. 'Tm tired of living alone, she trilled, from the inner places of the kitchen at Foss Hall. Byde came, heard, and decided to conquer. VVith an implication too pointed to escape notice, he chanted, from the outer regions of the pantry,-You don't have to unless you want to. He richly deserved the vigor with which Miss Knowlton shifted back to her conversational tone. All of which goes to show that there are several things less deceitful than appear- ances.

They were looking right and left, with the haunted expression of a man with a scholarship. lt was only because they wanted to see all that was to be seen, but Miss Eastman feared that they were strayed or stolen. Accordingly, she bore down on them, and said, with the tenderly patronizing air with which 191 children are so much afliicted, Ml-low do you do, little boys? Do you know where you're going ? The answer came very promptly, and in a tone replete with pointed meaning,- Yes, 11-1c1'ci111. ' And the g'ood Samaritan gathered her robes of righteousness about her and tacked for Foss Hall.

My friends call me Oscar john Crockett Tubbs, and my enemies call me no worse. lfVell, Mr. Tubbs, what is your claim to distinction? Oh, really, perhaps my smile is my best known accomplishment. I had noticed that. But are you not quite popular with the ladies? VVell, now, Mr. Oracle, my modesty forbids a full answer. But it is so easy to be popular with the girls who- VV ant to spite their fellows? By the way, Mr. Tubbs, did you not attempt to take a girl away from an Oakland boy last winter? VVhat was the result of that? VVhy, er-you know, I was wearing a very valuable pair of eye- glasses willed me by an aunt in Kalamazoo, and thought it proper to enter a shoe store when trouble arose. ' Quite so. Probably you didn't want to hurt the boys, either. Didn't I see you hurrying toward the Plains the other night, Mr. Tubbs? Yes. I wanted to see a girl down there. Oh. I though you were looking for another shoe-store. Good-bye. And who is this? Aw, I'm Kimball. Pardon me. I might have known it was you. And what have you done? ' f'VVell, now, there's that football game at Bowdoin. I played both halves in that, and won my C, you know, I tell you, I'm quite a man. ' Was there anyone else to play your position, Mr. Kimball? UNO. I donit believe there was. It would have been the same, though, if there had been. Not much credit to you, was it, Mr. Kimball? Did you get your neck scarred up in that game? No, that happened in an entirely different kind of a game, and besides, I take care not to be injured in football. Ah. Good-bye, Mr. Kimball. Is this Mr. M. E. Young? You look pretty important, Mr. Young? Well,iI've got a right to. I'm interested in Y. M. C. A. and while I didn't make good in debating, I'm in line for the managership of the Echo. Is that why you try to appear better than you are, Mr. Young? Listen to this couplet from Popei , 'By ignorance is pride increased, They most assume who know the least.' 198 That applies to you exactly, don't it, Mr. Young? And remember that the manager ship of the Echo doesn't always go to the best man. Good-bye. Good morning, Mr. Simpson. Is that your full name? My name is Edvvar-rd Howar-rd Simpson. What do you do to deserve it? XVell, I'm instructor in rockology, and besides, I am secretary to the faculty and registrar-r. What are your duties as registrar-r? I see that all electives get in on time, and if they don't, I can collect a dollar. J ' Will the lack of even one signature invalidate an elective? CVYCSYJ Don't it seem to you, Mr. Simpson, that less red tape and more talent would be a line thing for the college administration? Well, the present system is nice for me. Those little fines come in handy. That's why I'm anxious to collect them. You earn your money, all right, Mr. Simpson. It's too bad, though, that the boys donlt appreciate your motive better. VVhat's that ?- they don't have proper espree-doo-car?H Possibly. Good-bye, Mr. Simpson. ' ?99 Ye Freshman Lacldie Once in the days of the long ago, when the land was young and the people as well, there dwelt on the bank of a mighty river a witch. Now this witch was of wonderful wisdom as well as possessed of many charms and spells, which enabled people to gain the desired of their hearts. To this witch came one day in the early autumn, a man, well past the early spring of life, seeking the assistance of her marvelous powers. 'II am about to enter, said he, that body of seekers after truth who dwell on the hill-top yonder, and I wish to know how I may best impress the leaders of that band with my learn- ing. How, most wonderful witch, can you aid me P The witch paused for a second in deep thought. Then she went to a shelf in the cor- ner, carefully selected several articles from the varied assortment there and returned to the young man. This, she said, giving him a small paper, contains a powder, which if taken regularly will pro- duce a grave, earnest expression ot countenance, one of the most important things for your purpose. This pair of spectacles will add greatly if worn constantly and in these little books you will find many hints that will aid in your search for knowledge. The young man tried to thank her, but she had apparently lost all interest in his case and he departed. One day several months later the young man again sought the witch. Your aid, O witch, was most effective, said he, the leaders of that studious band are all convinced that I am the most earnest and sincere as well as the most learned of all who have sought their guid- ance. Now, since your knowledge has accomplished so much, aid me this much more. The other young men are content to bestow all their affection on one maiden, but my heart as Well as my mind is larger, and I desire two on whom I may lavish my love. Tell me how I may succeed in this, without either maid becoming jealous of the other. My son, said the witch, the answer is very simple, if you will but follow my instructions, you will have no difficulty, choose one maiden from the hill top and one from the valley beneathf, And ye Fresh- man,-knowest thou not him? I-I or he is hight Maxwell, and is even as above, only worse. 200 Contributions Refused for Lack of Space The Mystery of a 'Drunkg' or VVho Stole the Peanuts Misses Knowlton and Clark A Graft in Grub Slingingi' Toby Lyons An Ethical Defence of Cribbing Professor Simpson The Stream, the Bush, the Girl and I Aroostook Aristocracy UD How T Led the Charge Sprintingw Qwithj illustrationsj If C.
