For the past two years at Colby we have been aviating on the wings of destiny. But at last, those wings have borne us safely across the sea of uncertainty, and it is with a feeling of utmost relief that We find ourselves and our college once again on a firm foundation. What a transformation! Last fall we saw our campus a training camp for America's young patriots. VVe saw college life and college traditions slowly fading before us. But with the advent of peace among nations, Colby turned from a blended status to a calm and peaceful existence. The text-book now replaces the rifle, and the army khaki is fast being laid aside for civilian clothes. Just as eager as Colby men were to take up arms, so are they now to bring things back to a peace basis. We admire and cherish the record that our classmates have written on the pages of the college and the nation's history. Fondly will such recollections remain fixed in. our memories. Indelibly stamped in our minds will be those sons of Colby who made the supreme sacrifice. Colby has passed through one of the critical periods of her history. Her enthusiasm has never lessened, her undying spirit of loyalty has burned brighter and brighter. May we do our best to show that her sacrifice has not been in vain. The aim of a college education should be the cultivation of character and intellect to such an extent that students will be better fitted to undertake the tasks of life. The attainment of this aim rests partly with the instructors, but largely with the students themselves. YVhether or not the four years spent in college will prove profitable depends upon the extent to which we apply ourselves to the tasks assigned, and this, of course, is inturn largely dependent on our past training and immediate environment. But everyone can at least take advantage of the opportunities that come his way, and this alone will be a sufficient basis on which to build in the future. The more successful student, however, not only grasps the opportunities that fall his way, but also seeks out others. Of course there are extremes on both sides. The man who spends all his time in studying and has no time to attend dances, ball games, and social functions, does not get as much real education as he who rarely studies at all. But the man who finds time for both, and goes at work as cheerfully and as earnestly as he goes at play, is the man who will out-distance all others in the race of life. 8 COLBY ORACLE g I 91 9 A high school student who is planning to attend a college after completing his course, begins quite early to consider the question of what college to go to. Unless he comes into personal contact with a graduate of some college, who will influence him in favor of that college, he will nearly always write to institutions about which he has heard or read the most. In other words, the college that has the most publicity of the right sort, through newspapers, prominent men, and athletics, is the college that will be most successful in obtaining students. Colby has graduated many men who have become prominent citizens, and she has excellent athletic teams, but one thing she has never had-and that is good publicity. Most people outside of New England have never heard of Colby Col- lege, and many people in New England know very little about it. We believe it would pay the board of trustees to appoint some responsible person to see to it that Colby is properly advertised. ' It is gratifying to learn that the board of trustees has decided to continue Greek as an independent department for at least one more year. Professor White has givenseventeen of the best years of his life in loyal and competent service to the college, and the students who have taken his courses are confident that the Greek Department could not have had a better head. We all recognize in Professor XVhite the distinct qualities of a scholar and a gentleman, and we hope that the authorities of the college will see their way clear to continue this depart- ment indelinitely.

When 'fHud landed at Colby, he had a firm deter- mination to go after and procure many scholastic honors and, better still, he didn't intend to get them by taking those courses which put Colby on the map in athletics. Hud prospered, but the demons of ill luck smiled, for they still had a trump left. The trump was played and from then on f'Hud became a man of mystery until a frozen ear revealed the whole thing.---Yes! it is to be regretted that Hud had to spend so much valuable time during his Senior year trying to convince the Echo board that he really didnlt pass around the cigars. Yet Hud has been a Prince of Fellows and our best wishes go with him in whatever he undertakes.

Even the com- mercial travellers haven't got him stopped when it comes to making friends with those who can appreciate a good dinner-be it the owner of a restaurant or the one who just. loves fried oysters.

One might judge, and not erroneously, from the previous account, that Fish is an artist in both outdoor and indoor sports. Speaking of the latter, Fish claims to have brought us the Chimmie which fantastic whirl he admits that he can do full as well as any pro- fessional, furthermore on his basketball trips he bats 1n many bush leagues for a high average. Yes, Llewellyn, you do look fine in that mail man's outfit, but some of the girls think that the motor-man's uniform sets off the figure better.

When Gawgie first came up from the tall grasses of New York, he was a most staid UD and deeorous youth who was all for the educational end of the college career. But the war came along and our Hero set out to -crown f'Willie. He became a gas artist in Philadelphia and here, we believe, was the beginning of his downfall. His ffPost Bellum return to us discloses a changed man. He now neglects his studies in writing voluminous letters to Phillie and is ready to face the world with h1s L doubt it's and his superior knowledge of opera. We feel safe predicting a great future for this lad in any walk of life.

Yes! it is. true that Newt was forced to use a stepladder to reach the height of his ambition, but we are compelled to give him credit for his athletic prowess and scholastic ability. Newt is also some little Goat Grabber and probably has the largest collection of Angoras on exhibition since the Napoleonic Era- and, speaking of Napoleon, the Kaiser must have heard that Newt was going to Camp Taylor, for he immedi- ately ceased hostilities, so we can only speculate as to what might have happened had Uncle Sam turned this youth loose on the Western Front.

It is a familiar sight to see Sid trying to persuade PreX to give his permission for a dance. Glad we were that he was released from the Army so that he could complete his college course with his class.

'tKemble. It is under exceedingly peculiar conditions that we of the Class of 1919 graduate. It was only a very short time ago that our members numbered five- and some of them were expecting to be called to the colors. But all is changed now. Gradually our classmates returned and now we count twenty-two. There is an indefinable tie that held them while they were in the service, for at the moment of release practically all returned to Colby to finish their year. It is fitting that as the Senior Class, we should have given the greatest number to the serviice. Fifty-five names of the Class of 1919 are written on the Honor Roll of our Alma Mater. Of these twenty-one are in the American Expeditionary Forces and have not yet returned. A We would remember here two of our Classmates who gave their lives for their country in the Great War: Herbert H. Fletcher, who died in Washington 3 and John Arthur Stowell, who died on the battlefield. , The Class of 1919 marks the end of the war era of Colby College. The period of distress and trouble is ended. The future again grows hopeful. We are happy that we have had the opportunity to aid in the revival of the spirit of old Colby-our Alma Mater. 28 W, E ff V53 X T !L.ppf JUNIOR I 91 9 COLBY ORACLE Gllaee nf 19211 President, DANIEL MILTON CRooK Vice-President, ROBERT EDWARDS WILKINS Secretary, THADDEUS FREEMAN T ILTON Treasurer, HUBERT ADAM Henry Lorn Bell John Vtloolman Brush Everett Wliite Bucknam Elliott Elroy Buse Everett Linwood Caswell Bernard Crane Daniel Milton Crook Edward Moody Cook Harold Norcross Dempsey Robert Byron Dow Charles Spurgeon Eaton Rhoden Basse Eddy Hubert Adams Emery Alfred Leonhardt Fraas Arthur Madison Greeley Merrill Selden Frederick G Myron Clifton Hamer Pearl Libby Hanscom Curtis Hugh Ross Hatch Colby Bartlett Kalloch Harry Earle Lewin Merle Foster Lowery Edwin Farnham Mabie Guy Edward Rouse Hugh Allen Smith Thaddeus Freeman Tilton Charles Everett Vigue William Binyon West Robert Edward Williins James Leroy Wilsoii P68116 Qllaaa Hull so Haverhill, lllass.

A tough bunch? No. A respectable class? Nay. A precocious body? Hardly. What then? Unsophistlcated, inexorable, pestiferous, magisterial rep- resentatives of the class of 1921. One late,Monday night in October, 1917, there scampered across the college green a host of vengeful and terrorizing Sophomores, to awake the Freshmen from their slumbers. Obstinately and unwillingly, the Freshmen were rushed outside, poorly clad, and driven to their physical purgatory. Though the paddles waved noiselessly through the air, they caused nevertheless a terrible execution, and fashioned out ultimately a class of worthy Colby men. Much praise is due the class of 1920 for its good work. The call to render service for Uncle Sain, found many 1921 men ready to shoulder the gun and fight for liberty and justice. Uneasiness and lack of interest were the two main ecnditions that they strove diligently to blot out of college life, but all efforts proved futile. f'Remain in college till the call for service comes, was the slogan. Then when college opened the following October, the Student Army Training Corps came into our midst, towhieh every able- bodied man belonged. Through a three months' siege of hard training, rigid discipline, sickness, and diseomforts, the members of the class of 1921 stood the test wcnderfully well and pushed on unflinchingly and courageously in their college work. 36 M ' FHESHNAN I 91 9 COLBY ORACLE 0112155 nf 1922 President, NVILLIAM FRANKLIN CUSHMAN Vice-President, WENDELL FAY GRANT ' Secretary, ROBERT MORSE J AOKSON Treasurer, EARL ERNEST JAMES COLOR-GREEN, STREAKED WITH YELLOW Asa Charles Adams Arthur B.

She at once responded nobly to the enormous task before her, and established an institution which would prepare her sons for high and patriotic service to their country. Thus it was that when college opened, those comm only known as Freshmen found to their great joy, that venerable Phi Chi had been ordered to the rear rank by Uncle Sam. Many who composed this undeveloped material, believing that their true grade in college was partly hidden by the shadow of a military camp, committed many unwise acts which Phi Chi did not forget. When the military unit was disbanded, and the regular college year began, a new atmosphere was found to pervade the College Campus, a new deference was keenly felt by all. But Bloody Monday night could not be forgotten, and accordingly the Tribunal of Phi Chi conducted a midnight session for the benefit of the class of 1922, at which many new laws were laid down, and many lasting impressions made. As yet the Class of 1922 has done nothing to add to the laurels of old Colby, but she has three more years in which to make good. May her aims ever be of a noble character, and may she ever cherishnthe ideals which have long been the foundation of our Alma Mater. - Spatial anim lllnnlamaiiieh Henry Leroy Brophy Fairfield James Bernard Caswell W eelcs Mills Luther Bert Dodge Weeks Mills Jeremiah Joseph Doyle, Jr. Nashua, N.

What an awe-inspiring effect is produced when we assume, at the end of four years of diligent study and loyal service to our Alma Mater, that mantle of knowledge which symbolizes superior intellect and true worth. 1919 has ever stood foremost in college activities the past four years. From the fall of 1915 when we entered as freshmen upon the stage of college life, spec- tators were fascinated with our keen sense of humor when we cheerfully donned the verdant bonnets and goggles, and later did they marvel at our unusual ability in the clever management of the class banquet held at the Augusta House. The fall of 1916 found us living up to our already well established reputation. Much valuable Qthough perhaps not wastedj time was spent that year in training the freshmen in paths of rigid discipline until their tamed spirits were a comfort about ,the campus, and they have ever since manifested subservience towards the class to which they may be greatly indebted for their future well-being. The class play in the spring of 1918 made the Ivy Day festivities a success, and that night was one long to be remembered. 1919 has soared to lofty heights with the highest of aspirations to guide her. The past four years will go down as a great epoch in Colby's annals. The class is wealthy with the gifts that college has offered, and the college, we hope, ,richer for our associations. More than ever before do we hear that call of the world for workers, and better than any other class is 1919'ready to answer that call to the front after four long years of striving under more or less adverse circumstances. After this period of preparation in the cantonment, to which we may liken our college career, the call of 1919 to the front rings loud, and with its departure upon the transport which is to bear it over the sea of life, a curtain of mist draws o'er Colby Ca thing of the past, but our Alma Mater still and never to be forgottenD as the sun sinks in the west only to rise again in another land-Tomorrow, which dawns finding us sailing down Life's highway and carried ashore on kindly waves and with favorable breezes. This, the most illustrious yet of Colbyls crews, is borne to shores illuminated by the fires of Fame where bright and shining lights beckon on those who have always aspired to the noble heights which 1919 has personified. 53 , .A -R 'N A -- '. ,A .Q If xi' .V f pd ' of-1' 3, Ss x ' -5 0 X A ,. -sit X ix X XY X 1 f Q QQ, K 5 Y I K gfvgzkqa I Z . . gr ' ' l ,- ,.

From far-off countries they came, seeking the promised land, fiowing with wisdom and knowledge. Everywhere they encamped round about us and we were sore dismayed. They were inhabitants of strange countries and knew not our ways, and great was the fear thereof that we must teach them and instruct them in the way they should go. But lo, it came to pass that the multitude was visited with two great plagues and they were sore afflicted. Homesickness and influenza were a scourge upon the land, and many of the vast multitude returned to the lands from whence they came. Because of their afflictions, we had compassion on them and lived in fellowship and peacefulness with them. After many days had passed, the plague was removed from the land and peace reigned once more in the hearts of the multitude. And it came to pass that the judgment day in the ancient temple of Phi Chi was close at hand, and they were sore afraid. But, lo, the elders of the land, in their wisdom and might, had abandoned the ancient customs and the old law and prophecy had vanished away. Thus, when the day ofthe judgment of Phi Chi came to pass, there was no weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth, but great was the rejoicing thereof. And thus in peace and harmony the multitude continues to dwell among us. Before another year has come to pass, they will have changed their dwelling place. T hey too will move on as the dwellers in this strange land needs must do. Now they see through a glass, darkly, but when that which is perfect may come, may they know even also as it is known, why the elders of this great country deem them so sore an affliction. 65 EBNIT Ng Sffifiglfqiirxns E Evita liappa iipzilun COLBY 'ORACLE l 91 9 Belts: Kappa Iipailun Zlinunheh at Xi Olhaptvr ljale llniuvraitg in 1844 Establish:-h in 1345 CLASS OF NINETEEN HUNDRED AND NIHETEEN Arthur Ferdinand Scott Sidney Preble WVyman V CLASS OF NINETEEN HUNDRED AND TVVENTY Daniel Milton Crook i Colby Bartlett Kalloeh Edwin Farnum Mabie CLASS OF NINETEEN HUNDRED AND TWENTY-ONE Stanley Roberts Black Daniel Ray Holt ' Ransom Pratt Howard Merle Barnum Clark Drummond William Joseph Pollock Libby Pulsifer Donald Arthur Shaw Roland George Ware CLASS OF NINETEEN HUNDRED AND TWENTY-Two Marlin Downer Farnum Charles Hanson Gale VVendell Fay Grant Robert Morse Jackson Frank Watson Knowlton Evan John Shearman George Fred Terry Hugh Cram Whittemore 69 I 91 9 COLBY ORACLE George Stratton Paine iKeaihent members Rev.

Not wishing to force too many of a kind on Colby, he sent here a spicy variety of leather-legs, five in number, and each with a different title. Besides the Hcommahnding ahficerf' a tall, sallow, lean, and hungry lieutenant, there was a roving lad with the important title of Personnel Officer, an ordnance officer with the swagger of a veteran campaigner, a quartermaster with a mellifluous Carolina drawl, and a rosy cherub who was general care-taker of the other officers,-all exceedingly interesting characters to be sure. Playing second to this important staff, was a corps of sergeants, cocky young lads, most of Whom boasted of Plattsburg training, the others rising by sheer merit. Every one of these sergeants expected to be made a lieutenant over night and sent immediately to the other side, but the officer in charge persistently thwarted such ambitious designs on the part of these fledglings, and they sweetly resigned to their lot. The corporals were far superior men to the sergeants, for they won their titles without any Plattsburg experience behind them. It took more ability, at any rate, to command seven men than to command three-dozen and five proud corporals. It is said that history is written in the lives of men, so you have read a history of the S. A. T. C. at Colby, which, if not taken too seriously, will be found truthful in the main. Of course there were some privates in camp, but since they debase themselves by drudging in the company kitchen, we can hardly discuss them on these fair pages. 120 COLBY ORACLE 9 9 Svtnhent Ilxttmg Elraining Qlnrpa lttganizatiun COMMANDING OFFICER Lieut.

The Persons of the Play TI-IELMA LORMAN, a sparkling sinner. IIENNETH LORMAN, ordinary American. CLARA LORMAN, a stolid saint, his second wife. Time, 1910. Thelsoene is that of a living room, well furnished in comfortable style, which might be that of any American of the wealthier middle class. There is a piano at the left, book cases at the right, and a large library table in the center. Mag- azines and papers, the debris of cigarettes, and a box of candy litter the table, Beautiful pictures hang on the Wall. IVhen the curtain rises Kenneth Lorman is seated in a morris chair and is deeply absorbed in the Evening Sun, when there enters Thelma, his wife, an attractive, striking looking woman clad in a fur coat and smart hat. She bends over Kenneth and bestows upon him a hasty kiss. THELMA llflfizih entlzusfczsml-Oli, it's glorious out of door, Ken. I've been motoring out to Fairview and then we took a walk out to the deer park. Ilvew IKENNETH lSonzewhaz5 iesifflyl-lVIay I inquire with whom you went? THELMA lHurrZefZZyl-Oli, just Bob and Margaret, and er, Frank Marston. KENNETH lKvJndIy, but with ci shade of sorrow 'in his voicel I have told you before, Thelma, that Marston does not bear a good name, but however much my Wife may care to go, I am willing, if she choses her oompa-- 'III-IELMA lPetulantZyl-Well, Frank is no worse than the rest of men, and I have to have some amusement while you are away at the office. KENNETI1 lFirnzZyl-I know you are lonely while I am gone, dear, and, attractive and alluring as you are, I cannot hope to keep you entirely for myself 5 but Frank Marston is a 1112111 with Whom my wife shall not associate. . THELMA lPretend'ing Io Zaughl-Sliall not? My, but you are masterful! Here's a kiss and now promise you'll say no more of Marston. lShe goes over to him, and lightly kisses his foreheacll. IIENNETH--ING, Thelma, your being in his company arouses comment, unjust, of course 5 for I know that, however careless and irresponsible you may appear in the eyes of the world, you are good and true and pure. THELMA lWvLth a shade of annoyance passing across her facel-Come, let us talk of other things and let us not quarrel. 164 1' COLBY ORACLE I 91 9 KENNET11-NO, Thelma, the time has come when we cannot go on like this. I cannot have my wife classed as a woman who goes in questionable com- pany and permits risque comments. You will give up Marston and men of his stamp, promise me? VVhy cannot I satisfy the love you gave me at the altar? No, I'll not say that, I know that you are simply amusing yourself. I do not doubt you in the least. THELMA forging softlyl-Oh, Ken., I do love you and I will give up Marston, but I cannot stand your puritanical ideas. You have done things in your life and yet you set a separate standard of morals for women. You think that they are pure and angelic. They are not. I, your wife, married to you by law, have committed the worst sin on earth. I wanted to go straight but I was young, hopelessly young, and Marston was fascinating, powerful, masterful. I was but seventeen, a mere girl. His attention swept me off my feet. I didn't know-I didn't know. He has a claim on me now and I could not have refused his attentions or he would have told you. I-Ie forced me to go with him under the penalty that he would reveal to you the taint of my past. Oh, Kenneth, I've tried to keep it from you because you believed in me. I love you and I have wanted to stand on the high pedestal where you placed me. lShe breaks down and sobs covwulsivelyl Forgive-forgive mel KENNETH I W vjpihg lhe perspircziion from his forehead and white with myel- Forgive? God can forgive, I cannot. You are my wife bound by the laws of America, that fact I 'cannot deny, but you are not my wife in the sight of God. Go! and may I never see your face again! SCENE II. Time, 1919. Nine years have elapsed since the first scene and Kenneth has secured a divorce from Thelma and married a second time. The scene is the same as before, except that the house is a model of neatness. Clara, his wife, a stolid saint, sits at the table mending her muff lining. Kenneth enters and wearily sinks into a chair. KENNETH-Clara, I am tired as a dog tonight. I've been hard at work all day. Come, sit beside me and tell me what you have been doing. CLARA ilievrzciinifng where she islMOh, I havenft done much. I've cleaned up after the maid. She is so slack. I believe I'll discharge her and keep only the cook. I'd rather do the work myself than have her half do it. IIENNETH lEagerZyl-Let's go to a musical comedy tonight and after the show, weill have a supper at Loring's. I have the tickets. Come, let's dress before dinner. ' CLARA ICcLlmZyl-No, Kenneth, I couldn't. You see I have my Bible class to prepare for and thc music needs to be arranged in the music' ease and the victrola records are- 165 I 9 I 9 COLBY ORACLE IIENNETH lC0axingZyl-Come, Clara, to please me, if nothing more. For once, come out with me. Make the life I gave you a happy one. You always have something to do about the house, but home isn't everything. In my ego I flatter myself you married me and not the home. Please come, Clarag since our honeymoon, four years ago, you have never been anywhere with me. It's always the church or the house. fN0zficing,her, he stops, bites his lip, avid remains sileiizll CLARA-Come, the dinner is ready and everything will be cold if we wait. A lEa:it Claral. IIENNETH lHa.If to himselfl-Jove! but she's practical and pious! Can't think of anything but housework and religion! I have had one divorce and there shall be no more. A Lorman never has failed to do his duty. I'll go on and endu1'e it, the way they all do, merely exist. I'll put myself Whole-heartedly into work, and Clara can manage the house and her church duties. WVe,ll be machines of industry. Bah, all married life is but endurance, dragging along through life. The glow and glamour of love doesn't endure after the honeymoon. I may as well make the best of it and endure it, but, like Morley, I say, 'KWhat troubles flesh is heir to since God hrst made so free with Adam's rib. Curtain. ' I. S. G., '21 one Eimit Dan threw his books down on the study table with a sigh of relief. It was WVednesday and that meant a half holiday for the whole college. Not that Dan did not like his books, but, as he said, once in a while a fellow likes to do something else besides plugging. Hang it all, muttered Dan, I suppose I ought to go over to the library and get an outside reading book in 'European' if I expect to pass that quiz tomorrow morning. I should have plenty of time tonight, if it were not for that pesky play. I'd like to know what they gave me a girl's part for. Just a freshman's luck! If I only knew some girl in College well enough to borrow some women's fixings, but I dont Dan put on his overcoat again and started for the library just as the whistle on the mill across the river blew for noon. Dan ran up the steps of Memorial Hall in order to reach the library on the second floor before the librarian should lock up and go to dinner. The outside door banged behind him before he remembered that it was the girls' chapel hour. As he paused for a moment, hesitating to make a further disturbance by climbing the creeking stairs, he 166 COLBY ORACLE l 91 9 noticed that the door leading to the old library on the ground floor was ajar. Rather curiously he peered within. There on a table were piled the hats, caps, and coats of the senioriwomen. I Why not? whispered Dan. No one will see me. Might as well take along enough for the other fellows that will need them. Some of them might not fit, he chuckled, as he gathered up a large supply of coats, hats, caps, mufflers, furs, and gloves. Don't imagine the boys can get those mittens on, but the muffs will do anyway. He slipped the key, which had been left on the inside of the door, into his pocket and noiselessly closed the spring latch behind him As he stole through the hall, the girls were singing Speed Away. He sped, and was received at his dormitory with shouts of wonder at the burden that he bore. t'Say, kid, have you bought out a pawnshop? . Did you rob Foss Hall or where did you get those duds? Dan kicked the door to and dropped his trophies on chairs nearby before reporting. His daring won the approval of the older boys. The impromptu play went off well, and not a little of the good humor of the evening was due to the fact that several of the boys appeared in apparel that usually adorned members of the women's division. Dan was the hero of the party and enjoyed a measure of popularity hitherto unknown to him since his entrance as a green freshman. Reports were given by various boys as to how the girls were taking the loss of their garments. Joe Nevens added to the joy of the occasion by describing the various costumes in which the girls had appeared that afternoon. One girl wore an old cast-off coat, her Sunday hat, and no gloves.. Another appeared in last year's spring suit. Several pairs of overshoes in lieu of rubbers had been seen, although there was only a thin coating of ice and slush on the ground. Gne senior in a raincoat boldly faced the sunny sky. Even less fortunate individuals continued to wear caps and gowns. .l ack Connors had met his particular friend that afternoon and she, a junior, had told with considerable glee how the seniorpgirls had left their things in the old library while they were at chapel and in some way the door had been closed by mistake. The key had been left on the inside and, as no one was found that could open the door, the girls were obliged, although it was a cold winter day, to return to the hall in their caps and gowns. In the afternoon they had tried to call up the librarian, who had another key to the door, but he had taken it with him to a meeting of the Library Association at Augusta. This latter fact was news to Dan and made him feel easier, for he had been wondering how long it would be ere the girls would get into the old library and find that some of their clothes had disappeared. Late that night, Dan and his roommate quietly entered the old library in Memorial Hall, left the key on the inside of the door, and as quietly witlidrew. 167 I 9 I 9 COLBY ORACLE The girls still laugh at the remembrance of the time when on a wintry day the old library door slammed to and left their hats and coats locked inside. To one of them, at least, the mysterious presence of a cigarette stub in the pocket of her coat, the next day, has never been accounted for. R. EHS. C., '20 GBM Eihrzarg As soon as we have mounted the staircase in Memorial Hall, there appears an assemblage of Greek deities, to say nothing of The Dying Gladiator, to whose misery we add by compelling him to die with a cap on his brow. In the alcove, Artemis and her brother Apollo guard the ladder which leads up into the clock- tower, Athena and Demeter fthe Roman Ceresj are also there, perhaps as the goddesses of the umbrella stand. The door to our left leads into the Library, a spacious cheerful room, filled with a number of things of interest. At bright, polished tables, we see students at work, some lightly reading magazines and newspapers, some with a great abundance of papers and volumes about them, apparently drinking deep in literature or history, or solving an economic problem, while from all sides, men in plaster and men in oils look down upon the scholars at work, a noble inspiration from the past. A motley collection of plaster there is,-first, on the left the armless Venus, and is it by wit or chance that pious Roger Williams is but a few feet away, armed with Soul Liberty? Niobe and one of her unfortunates loom up mournfully in a corner, turned to stone these many centuries. On short pedestals rest busts of Athena and Zeus 3 and high atop a shelf in the north end are heads of Christo- pher Columbus and the Marble Faun, another curious combination. Now back near the door again, we see the feature of the hall, Thorwaldsen's magnificent f'Licn of Lucerne, a replica of the great work carved to commem- orate the bravery of the Swiss guards before the Tuilleries in 1792. The lance- pierced beast surmounts a large marble tablet, inscribed to the men of Colby who fell for the integrity of the republic. There are their names, cut deep and painted with gold almost as lasting as their glorious sacrifice. The bas-reliefs illustrating some episodes of the Pilgrims in Massachusetts, and the exquisite Japanese marine view, painted in silk, are objects for close and fascinating study. But these gentlemen who hang in gilded frames,-mostly scholarly-app caring gentlemen, hoary-haired and bearded,-who are they? Pillars of the institution, generous benefactors, famous alumni, and former presidents and pedagogues, 168 COLBY ORACLE I 91 9 anyone might answer, but their names are known only to the few survivors of the old day, and .they are fast disappearing. Here are the makers of Colby, of course. The polished-looking gentleman with the side-whiskers, we have been told, is Gardner Colby, whose generosity fixed the name of the university, now the college. And if there is not shrewd, stocky old Ben Butler, squatting alongside of a Hag-draped table, andoholding an important-looking paper in his hand. Dear old Ben, why will you not come down off the wall and tell us of those rare old days when you were running wild in Waterville, before you conquered New Orleans or graced the Massachusetts State House? But Ben sits and scowls. We had better go out to see whether or not the gladiator has succumbed, lest our hat go with him to the grave. B J. W. B., '20 Appreriatiun nf illilg Brother: Next to my mother, you were the being I loved best, brother of mine. Even in my baby days, they tell me, I would stretch out my hands to Bruvver in preference to any other playmate. And who else could ever have created such wonderful games, could have filled my baby world with such delightful imagery? Every play was real to us, so long as you acted it, for you went into your part with all your heart. What a fierce Indian you could be and how disgusted you were when I refused to die directly over a mudholel I can close my eyes, and at times, dream those days back again. Perhaps it is one of those wonderful Christmas mornings of years gone by. I-Iand in hand we creep down the stairs for a peep at that magnificent tree. I see somethin' for youj' you say, way up on the top. And I thrill even now, with the mystery of those hidden gifts. Those dear days of childhood would have lost half of their witchery, if you had not lived them with me, my brother. How many times in your boyish games you must have wished I would run away and not bother, but you always found a place for Hlittle sister. When you were punished or in disgrace, my heart would almost break, and I would wish to suffer for you. I To suffer for you,-and I could not even help when you faced your bitter hour alone! It was cruelly hard to lose you, never again to hear your voice, to feel pride in your big, strong body, to see your dear bronzed face with its tender eyes. But I thank God for the years I had with you-those wonderful bright years of childhood, my comrade, brave, patient, and true to the end. M. S. G., '22 169 I 9 I 9 COLBY ORACLE. Ellie diner Zliairg Did you know that somewhere near the rainbow, between two mountains there is a beautiful hollow called the valley of Sunbeams and Morning Mist? Here live thousands and thousands of little winged fairies who carry around' their necks, whistles made from the stamens of a wild fio wer and strung on a thread of a spiderls web. All day long they flutter lazily around in the trees and play hide and seek with the sunbeains, whistling softly all the while. Often they swoop down and dip 'their transparent wings in a little silver pond to make them reflect the rainbow more clearly. The gentle zephyrs toss and play with them, too, and waft the fragrance of wild flowers about them, for the zephyrs rule in the valley and love the fairies very dearly. The fairies never dream of such a thing as leaving the valley, for they in turn love the zephyrs and whistle soft, sweet music to them as they toss them gently, now to the tree tops and now slowly back to the lake below. Sometimes when the fairies are whistling, people wonder what kind of bird it isethat they hear. But they never find out, because they do not know that it is only the fairies whi stling iln uniscn. But let me tell you what happened. One day a drowsy little fairy, drifting around on the gentle breezes, strayed to the edge of the valley and was soon outside. Then he was lost, because the gentle zephyrs, such as look after fairies, dwell only in the valley. The poor little fairy sank to the ground and wandered about. Finally, he climbed on the thorns of a wild rose stalk, up to the flower, drew his gown of golden sunbeam gauze about him and went to sleep. The rose was glad of her treasure and folded her petals close about him. It was late when the fairy wandered away, and as the zephyrs do not play at night, no one knew until sunrise that the littly fairy was gone. When the zephyrs heard of it they were very much disturbed and called on their friend, the wind, to carry all the fairies together, with their whistles, far into the big outer world in search of the lost onc. All together they blew their whistles, now high, now low--calling, calling for the fairy to join them. At last they came to the place where the wild rose grew. The wind shook it, the fairies whistled, and the wanderer tumbled out. He was immediately caught up by his happy com- rades and carried safely back to the valley. So Whenever you hear the wind whistle you must know that there are thousands of fairies very near and that one of their members is lost. When the wind seems to moan, long and dolefully, you must know that they cannot find their brother and are very sad. ,But if you awake the next morning and find that 'the wind has died down, you must be very happy, for somewhere in the big world a little fairy has been found, and in the beautiful valley of Sunbeams and Morning Mist, many fairies are very happy again. A. L. M., '20 170 COLBY ORACLE I 91 9 Zllnr the ifinue uf EI Zlirienh One night Harper found himself dashing over No Man's Land with his companions in their Erst trip over the top. He had dreaded it so, but he knew it must come some time and that he would kill whatever carrie in his way. Me- chanically he ran on with the rest under a rain of machine gun bullets till they plunged into the German trench. Here it was all as he expected, and he never wavered in using the fatal bayonet thrust learned in the camps back home. Once he raised his arm to strike, but something in the distorted face of his victim made him pause, and a vision, many visions in fact, swept through his mind of college days and a dear friend he had known there. It was all so far away that he thought it must have been a golden dream. It seemed as though he had never lived, since hecould remember, in anything except a rainfsoaked trench, and had never seen anything but blood, and wounds, and crazy men. His hand dropped and the eyes of the two men met. So it is you, Emil? I've wondered if weld ever meet over here. Well, you make me realize that ages ago there was another life, and, yes, I remember I used to complain about its hardships sometimes. Oh, what fools these mortals be! Speak to me, Emil, old man! It seems like a little bit of heaven to see you here. But why don't you kill me, Harper? You see I am defenceless. I didn't know things like that could make a difference in such a cause. Harper shuddered. Kill you, Emil! Why, I had as soon kill my own brother. Donft you remember the words my mother spoke to you the night you left America to join the armies of your Fatherland? She hoped that for your mother's sake and for ours that you would come through it safe, and that the struggle would not be long. Come with me, Emil, I want to get you back to your people and to safety. I will tell my comrades not to shoot while you cross to the next trench. Good-by, Emil, and may God protect you from danger. Emil gripped the hand of his friend, then without uttering a word mounted the parapet and disappeared into the night. Two weeks later Harper was standing tense, bayonet in hand, waiting for the impending German attack. The machine guns were playing over No lVIan's Land and the night was brilliant with the flame of star shells. Harper never could get used to going over the top and these night raids by the Germans always made him desperately nervous, not for his own sake, but for his mother's. A picture of her receiving that fateful telegram irritated and troubled him of late. The firing increased, there was a restless movement along the lines and Harper knew they were coming. Black figures loomed up in front of him, scores of them. He made wild thrusts with his bayonet, but it was hurled from his 171 I 9 I 9 COLBY ORACLE hand, and by the sudden light of a star shell, he recognized a face full of madness and hate bent near his own and holding a drawn bayonet. Oh, Emil, remember my mother! It is for the Fatherland! and Emil passed on into the confusion. E. H. G., '20 Ellie Home-Stretch Bending low, every muscle tense, ever urging his horse to go faster, rides the jockey. The crowds are cheering, he does not see them. The dust is flying, he does not mind it. He is only conscious that he must get to the finish before the others-he must! And the horse that is straining ahead responds, though an afternoon of running has wearied him, and the afternoon is warm. IVhen horse and rider are on the home-stretch, they can not stop, nor think of ease. A faint breeze is lifting the curtains, but it is not a cool one. Our college room, in which the sun has been shining all day long, is stifling, and drawn shades can not keep the heat out now. Sprawled on the couch is Mary, in blissful oblivion to discomfort. Adjusting her hat before the mirror is Linno, all ready for a trip to the nearest ice-cream parlors. And I-I must sit at my desk and absorb knowledge for tomorrow's quiz, while every inch of my hot, weary self is pleading that I yield to Ruth's coaxing and accompany her. If not that, just to relax would be joy,-just to relax for a few minutes and to forget study and heat. Yet I can notg I must not! Ruth leaves the room-- aloneg Mary turns in her sleep and sighs, once more I turn to 1ny books, for this is the home-stretch of the year's work. When the gbal is near, whether it be in a race of work, or of boats, or of horses, it is always like this. It means forgetting the things one would like to be enjoying and fighting hard to get ahead. If one turns to other thoughts for only a moment, it means that some ground is lost, if one stops to rest for only a second, one is losing. The home-stretch is the hardest part of the course, for when one has reached it, he is always more or less weary, He has not the fresh enthusiasm of the start, and unless he keeps victory and the prize before him, his steps will be slower. Yes, the home-stretch is most important ofall, it decides who can stand the test of endurance, and shows who is the best man. 172 ' gg-:g-:-fe?-' W - f 12,5 A 90 94 :E 'nn 4 V . Vg?

The man in surprise watched the stamp take its way slowly across the room and creep up the wall, and then in despair exclaimed: Three days! Hell! it'll be three years before I get out of this place.
