The editorial board honestly feels that this ORACLE represents its best efforts, and is the best ORACLE that has ever been published. The board has tried to profit by the mistakes of previous boards, and next year we hope that the board will profit by our mistakes and turn out a book superior to this one. The finest thing about the past year has been the awakening of the Student Body. The Student Council has functioned in the past year as it has never functioned before. It created rules to control the Freshman Banquet, which had in the past been governed by unwritten and most unsatisfactory rules, rules that were so uncertain as to result in unsatis- factory banquets for the past three years, and claims of victory by both sides. The present rules worked exceedingly well, and resulted in having a definite and satisfactory decision this year. It also took over the man- agement of the Interfraternity Basketball League, paid all the old debts of the league, and closed the season with all bills paid, and a small surplus. This was a noteworthy accomplishment when compared with the results of other years. Another determined, but unsuccessful attempt was made to reform the present evil of fraternity rushing. Although the rules were not passed, five of the fraternities have signified their intention to postpone pledging next fall until the third Wednesday in October. The courage of the fraternities is to be commended and deserves success. If success does at- tend their efforts the inevitable result will be the abolition of the present cut-throat system, and it will be looked back upon as the most significant event of the past college year. Another reform the writer would like to see would be the abolition of Freshman Rules, other than, perhaps, the wearing of the Freshman Cap. During one's freshman year friends are made regardless of fraternity, and the spirit in the class is of the best. But after a squabble or two in sopho- more class meetings, over real or imagined discrimination- on the part of the members of one fraternity against the freshman of another, we find this friendly spirit becoming a bitterly antagonistic one. The bad spirit is not confined to the sophomore class, but spreads, and before college is hardly under way we find one fraternity group suspiciously 'hostile of another, and all over a few petty, foolish, childish rules. We can keep freshmen in their places without resorting to foolish rules that the fresh- men can hardly be blamed for breaking. The college as a wholehought to be able to impress upon freshmen their standing and place here. Must we continue to have these rules because other classes had them before us? If we feel the need of preserving tradition then let us keep Bloody Monday Night, but let us do away with those trouble breeders, Freshman Rules and Sophomore Razoos. The past year has not been overly successful in athletics. In football a team with championship possibilities failed to get going until the final game against Bates. Some stars will be lost to the team, but better breaks should result in a State Championship next year. Hockey was more suc- cessful than ever before, although we finished at the bottom. Once again Six coneesv m eme , 11922-wget we can find comfort in thinking of the fine prospects for the next year. Baseball, track, and tennis are yet to come, but the prospects in all three are bright, especially in tennis with the entire team back. We hope that the unfortunate fire at Coburn has not put the procuring of a gymnasium a few more years distant. It is a necessity. If we are to compete with the other Maine colleges, an adequate gymnasium is needed, and needed soon. The gymnasium, so cramped and inadequate, has been utilized as a laboratory since the fire, and this has served to emphasize the great need of an up-to-date and adequate gymnasium. There has been rumor of a Dean. It seems as if some of the duties should be lifted from the willing, but overburdened shoulders of President Roberts. The college is large enough and really needs a Dean. We hope that next year will see this rumor a fact. We are glad that during the past year the President saw fit to do away with the practice of Student Assistants correcting papers in some courses. It has resulted in unfairness and favoritism in a few instances, although the honesty of most of these assistants could not be questioned. It has seemed an unfair arrangement for all students concerned, and the ORACLE was glad to see President Roberts take action in this matter. The past year has seen a decided stiffening of the scholastic standards of the college. We hope that the faculty will see fit to continue the good work, and that in the future will make the entrance requirements more strict, and thus eliminate at the very beginning the majority of the unfit. We could not finish without saying a few words about the great loss Colby suffered when Dloctor Marquardt died. More students, probably, took courses under him than under any other professor. He was beloved by all, and his death was a shock to all of us. He was faithful to the last, teaching almost to the day of his death. Realizing that mention in the editorial column is quite inadequate, another page has been reserved for a tribute by Doctor White, his closest friend among the members of the faculty. In the final analysis we are glad to-find that the Student Body has taken on a new lease of life in the past two years. It must inevitably result in a better and finer Colby. We hope that the Student Body continues in the path it has taken the last two years. As we look forward into the years to come it is not hard to visualize Colby as a greater little college than ever. APPRECIATION The ORACLE wishes to thank Professors Rollins and Libby for 'their helpful aid and suggestions. The ORACLE appreciates greatly the co-operation of the merchants of Waterville and elsewhere who have advertised in this book. The EDITOR wishes to thank the members of his board for their fine co-operation, and splendid work that made the ORACLE possible.

With our gradu- ation the curtain drops forever upon the fourth scene in the undergraduate life of the class of 1927. The story of our share in the pageant of the Blue and Gray is well known tol everyone, and yet, let us read 'the synopsis through once again in order to refresh our memories before we turn, in the next few pages, to the details of the action of the play. First, there was that Freshman scene when we were initiated as Colby men, the largest entering class up to that time. Then, also, the football championship was won, and we held our successful, though poorly timed, banquet. Then came the Sophomore scene when we, ourselves, assumed the role of priests of Phi Chi., That was the year of the Sophomore Declama- tion, the Upsilon Beta Initiation, the Sophomore Shufiie, and the first 'trial of the one--year athletic rule. But it was in the Junior scene that our 'talent really began to develop with the organization of Powder and Wig and Pi Gamma Mu, the Junior Prom, the Junior Exhibition, and the Junior Class Day exercises. In the fourth, or Senior Scene, we 'took over the active control of the campus organizations-especially of the Student Council and the various college publications. Then came Commencement, the first under the new week-end plan, with its continual rush of activities from 'the Senior Hop to the Graduation exercises. Thus, briefly, can we think of it all again. ' Our act in the drama of Colby is completed. Our members have had leading roles in the scholastic, athletic, religious, forensic, dramaticfand musical parts of its production. Now there remains only the Work of the critics-and that will be found chronicled, in the years to come, on the pages of our newspapers and magazines. l Our cast disbands. Remembering Mother Colby's training, we now go to the greater play. We have strutted our little hour here upon the stage of Colby's campus. As you read these pages which record the story of 1927, decide for yourself, as We take the curtain call of our graduation, whether Macbeth would have called us poor players.

Yes, here he is! A youmzster, a school teacher, and a would-be scholar. Hap does enjoy fun. Ask some of his brothers who have seen him enter the house disguised as an inmate from Auxzus- ta 1East Sidel. Very few would bear, as he has, the hardships that these amusemcnts have caused to be visited upon their per- petrator. Frank also has talent for art, and we hope some day to see him in the funny paper. We shall miss his smiling: face and the hilarious tootinrc which he calls sax music.

Andy came to Colby a very unwise and unlearned schoolboy. He set to work at once and the courses that he has mastered would make a less determined man shudder. Cheerful, friendly and humor- ous, he has made a great number of friends during' his four years at Colby. With his strong: determination and even temperament he is sure to be successful in his medical career. JOSEPH RUEL ANDERSON HJC!! Silence is golden.

He has taken all of the hard courses and by being: a con- stant plumzer has kept his scholarship average high.

Whenever any organization requires a speaker, Rowland is al- ways its first choice. Whether the talk which he is asked to give be humorous, patriotic or educational, he is always ready with words which fit the audience and the occasion. His ready wit and brilliant mind make his powerful speeches impressive and interesting. Al- though small in stature and handicapped by a mass of' curly hair, his jaunty stride marks him as a man of purpose. He is in every sense of the word a congenial and polished gentleman.

Our smiling Jim has conquered the difficulties of being a spe- cial student and is now ready to enter the wide world and find his place in it. Jim is a dandy srood fellow and has a cheerful smile for every occasion. When Wool is entertaining, come prepared for laughter. His characteristic Oh, Boy was always a signal of good humor and xzayety. Jim is still a bit bashful, but seems to have conquered that handicap in one particular case. Wool never prets in the way, but is always willing and eaxrer to dispel the blues and encourage others to brace up and try harder. Considerate toward all, he has been a true brother and friend. Close contact with you has made us realize the wonderful worth and value of a sincere and kindly classmate.

One of the busiest fellows ever to enter the college by the Kennebec. The man who could keep up with Bill's multifarious duties had to go some. Besides doinsz well in his studies, he has endeavored to furnish the college with various necessities of life- that is fun, etc. If only he will do in the world what he has done here, the world will be a better place for the human race to live in.

If you continue to strive as hard as you have at Colby, enduring' success is bound to reward you. .As a musician you have proven yourself efficient and your musical ability will be greatly missed.

The fact that Cad has managed to retain his popularity while learning to play the saxophone speaks volumes for his personality. He has two places of residence, Fairfield and Waterville, and it is due solely to his efforts that the locul street car company has man- asred to pay dividends. His alleged musical talent is his one Haw and that is merely theoretical. He never speaks of his personal ambi- tions. but it is safe to assume that he will fill an honored place in some community selling banjos and other musical instruments on week- days and leading the Sunday School on the Sabbath. - JOHN EDWARD CANDELET, ATO Atcandyn Bring him along, he plays, you Icnow the kind.

Here is one of those rare specimens of what is commonly known as an nthlete-scholar-good-fellow. The busy days of this man, the second of the famous Colby Cowings, remind one of the ver- satile actor who plays all of the roles, from light to heavy. The only difference is that Cleal's work is the real article. A football player of proven ability, a talented musician, an efficient manager, a capable student and tutor, an able executive and a general all-around good fellow. Truly this man stands out as a leader among his mates. CARL HARRIS CRUMMETT, L. C. llvanrv ' 'Tis now the 'very witching time of night.

Enroute to success is Ralph.

This Waterville youth has capably acted as usher and marshal for more than one commencement and it is with regret that we see him take part in his own. His ready hand has been held out to undertake any task and his ability has made him finish the job. Generosity as well has marked Ralph as bit: in heart as in stature.

Pliny is one of the hardest workers that ever graduated from Colby. He has worked early and late and his works form a list far too long to include here.

Illness kept Ted away from college for a time, but he showed pluck and perseverance and now this congenial, red-haired youth is among the graduates. As Ted is a resident of Waterville, many of his college friends have often experienced his ready hospitality at his home. His precarious position in his courses which resulted from his returning at mid-semester was soon overcome by the Doc, giving him the mark of a capable scholar. His immaculate appearance dis- tinguished him as one Of the neatest members of his class, while his large circle of friends pronounce him as a wholly likeable and efficient Ted.'

Another local lad and a credit to the town. Many organizations owe in a. material way a considerable amount of gratitude to Al and his willingness to help. Transportation is one ol' the greatest problems of today in every branch of endeavor and Al's generous assistance with all in his power mark him as an unsellish and public spirited individual. There are often plenty ol' men who are willing to lend a hand, but to associate with Al in any way is an added pleasure and a prolit. A young man with a standing among his fellows such as is held by this particular lad, should feel no qualms whatever in the face of the world's work.

West Springfield has sent forth a goodly number ol' its youth to matriculate at this dear old institution, but not among the least do we hnd our old friend Eddie. If you should ask any of Ed's intimates what particular outstanding characteristic is possessed by this in- dividual, the answer will almost invariably be work. And a worker he is too. A pleasurable interest in all that he attempts makes his tasks a wonder to others and a source of enjoyment to hmiself. A serious desire to see things neat and right, whether it be his tie or his classroom work, ever characterizes Eddie's actions.

Herbert has made many friends while at Colby. He has entered into the various activities of the Debating Society and of the Young Men's Christian Association, and has held honored positions in both of them. His speaking ability is well known, and he is honored among the students for it. He, too, has been very faithful to his courses, and as a result of it has been busy from the beginning to the end of the day. Probably by this policy he has gotten more out of college than the rest of us. We wonder ten years hence if he will be as busy as he is now.

A glance at the list of accomplishments which Jon has to his credit gives the layman an idea of this youth's ability, but only the students at Colby fully realize his worth.

To quote one of Dusty's debating: rebuttals: What dillerence does it make whether a man is an anfzel from Heaven or a satellite of Mephisto, it's what he says that counts. From the number of debates and speaking contests in which he has taken part, we can only con- clude thnt he counts for quite a good deal. When you stop to consider it, however, it really is a queer combination--majoring in Latin. and living: on the Southern Plains of Waterville. His surroundings may have had something to do with his prevailing condition ol' ill-health due to frequent changes of heart. Dusty certainly deserves a lot ol' credit. He has taken enough hard courses to floor three ordinary mortals, yet he is always ready to aid in whatever is the project ol' the moment. Here's wishing him as secure a place in life as he has in our hearts. CLYDE ELWOOD RILEY, L. C. uspudu I could a tale unfold.

Under the leadership of Seek, they performed well their duties to the timid frosh. After two months in their watchful care the favored frosh held the banquet unmolested C?J in the college gym. This people thereupon proved their superiority to the class of nineteen hundred thirty by scoring twice in the pushball contest. They are friends of all, save the too fresh, and now reign supreme.

It's a farce-everyone knows a freshman class has no History-but just give us a chance. We were given our first taste of college on the never 'to be forgotten Bloody Monday Night. It was at this occasion that we were shown the Sixty-seven cffi f f? .- , ' its if catouiev connasmace. f92?fff?lS2 dangerousness of 1929. However, against all these odds, we were soon doing things to our credit. l We were the first to hold our banquet on the Colby campus under the very eyes of Phi Chi. So great was our success that the sophomores abolished all rules. We were not, however, as successful in our next en- deavor, the pushball contest. In football, in hockey, in everything the class of '30 is Well represented. We are a mixed lot of fellows, but we're united in one or two 'things which we have already learned, and one of these is loyalty to our college.

Senior Class History Many's the long year I have ticked away the hours in this Foss Hall, many are the insults which my telling face has endured, many are the con- versations to which I have listened, but never before have I seen fit to speak. What, you ask me, has moved you to this burst of eloquence ? It is to bid farewell to the women of the class of '27, Day in and day out, yea, nights in and nights out for some, I have watched them file past to meals, to classes, to church, to movies, to dances, and to gym, and never in my clock existence have I seen a more jovial, en- thusiastic, and co-ord -inate group. Yes, they are conscientious too, but not painfully,so, for I'll confess they haven't worn themselves out with study. They have preferred to take part in all activities. In hockey, ten- nis, and volleyball, they have taken great interest, although times seem to be few when they have acquired championships, yet, they did get the big Health League cup in 1926. Delightful tales of their corking good times at hops, shuffles, parties, games and even doleful tales of quizzes and exams have amused me, as they eagerly waited for me to tick the hour for the last call for meals. A great class of experimenters 'these girls of '27! Last year, as Juniors, they surprised and amused most everyone with their pre- sentation of Twelfth Night in modern costume, Of course, some disap- proved of the lack of Shakespearean dignity of the comedy, but, my word! Those girls just couldn't be dignified. It is most amusing to see their vain attempts to assume becoming dignity this year. To these young women whom I have watched unfold from green fresh- men buds to cultured senior flowers, I now bid farewell with confidence, that, wherever they may go, of them Colby will be proud.

Emily certainly realizes the significance of the above quotation, for she is always busy, always conscientiously striving to accomplish the set task. Em is reputed to be rather silent and demure, but we who know her best realize her capacity for fun and feeds as well as for Latin.

Twenty-eight has been distinguished by her orators and readers. Last year she carried off the volleyball and soccer championships. Many of her athletic stars have made varsity teams. Take note of her tennis champions. Look at her musicians and Phi Betes. What would the Glee Club do with- out her? This is not all. Twenty-eight is talented in other ways. Who origi- nated the first sophomore dance. Do not overlook the fraternity pins col- lected here and there. Loyalty to our Alma Mater is the spirit of our class. In the class- room and on the athletic field we have made a name for ourselves. Our one aim is to furnish a worthy inspiration for the other classes.

Jw Sophomore Class History May she e'er be proud to guide us Dear Colby, the Blue and Gray, To the goal she has set before us, A beacon along life's Way. For the best all-round class, we of 1929 far excel. In athletics, in studies, in social activities, in loyalty to our beloved Alma Mater, in class spirit, and in talent we outstrip the others. We are exceedingly proud of our class, nor are we less proud of our Hockey Championship, and loyal rooters. The greenness and dumbness of last year has disappeared. Al- though our class spirit was excellent last year it has increased ten-fold this year. Our number is not quite as large as formerly, but the quality is just as fine and strong. Our tasks and responsibilities have increased. Among them is that of helping to bring up the ignorant ones of 1930. No more do we open doors and serve all upperclassmen, no more do We dance attendance at a superior's command--we, instead, are served, and give commands. ' We are confident that each year Will increase our abilities, our use- fulness, and our fame. For the next two years We will all strive for higher ideals, so that We may graduate as the prize class of our own Colby.

This year the case is different,-we know We are better than any previous class. Our class is starting with good Colby fundamental ideals and hopes to work up to a grand finale before we start out on life's seas in 1930. College means a great deal to us, and We are confident that each member will enter all activities whole-heartedly, thus keeping the faith and trust Colby puts in us. Our Freshmen Days may well be Written Freshman Daze, yet we have not missed the real aim of college, which is to secure an adequate education to help us in our life Work.

Its object is to regulate order and decorum among the women in the dormitories and in the City of Waterville. All women registered at Colby are members. Besides the active officers it has an executive board consisting of Dean Erma Reynolds, Louise Chapman, Irma Sawyer, Gladys Bunker, and a representative from each of the four classes. The Student League has, besides its other meetings, two regular meet- ings a year, one in the spring and one in the fall to read the constitution and to make amendments. Mass meetings are called by the president whenever needed.

While the teams for Colby lost the first three debates, all of the rest of the Colby teams were victori- ous. This year there are many of these veterans left to aid in the season. Several of the more formidable opponents that were encountered last year were: University of Maine, University of Vermont, University of New Hampshire, Massachusetts Agricultural College, Amherst College, and Middlebury College.

The results of last season and this large number of veterans held the promise of a successful season. Considerable hope for the line was based on the recruits from the Freshman team of 1925. The custom of having a football training camp, revived last year, was continued this year. The men gathered at the State Y. M. C. A. Camp at Winthrop Center and were put through a week of conditioning, signal practice and black-board drill. The week after the return to the Campus the hopes of the team received a severe blow. Cleal Cowing, Varsity guard from last season, and a tower of strength in the line, was be- cause of injury, forced to give up football for the year. However, the period of preparation was short, and the team was not in the best condition for the first game, against Brown University. Brown won 35-0 in an entirely one-sided contest. Colby put up a bitter struggle, but was entirely out-classed by its heavier opponents. As in previous years, Brown had the advantage in numbers and skill over the Blue and Gray. The next game, with the University of New Hampshire at Durham, was a different affair. Colby out-played the New Hampshire team all around. The odds seemed in favor of the Roundymen until a blocked Colby punt was fallen on behind the goal line by an opposing lineman, for the only score of the game. In the opening periods both teams were slow, but changed in the final half when they got going and made a fast and furious finish, with a score 6-Oi for New Hampshire. The following week Colby won from Lowell Textile at Waterville. The Textile team was a scrappy delegation and fought well throughout the game. The Colby team, while it played a good game, did not show any exceptional skill. The final count was 6-3 for Colby. The next week saw the opening of the State Series, with a victory for Bowdoin at Waterville. The visitors got the jump in the first half and scored twice in the opening period. Then the Mule set its teeth and held for two periods. In the final period Colby made two touchdowns by use of a brilliant passing game. In spite of this, the Polar Bear made a third thouchdown and carried off a 21-14 victory. The following Saturday a determined White Mule invaded Orono and there gave the confident Brown Bear its bitterest State Series struggle in years. The final score, 7-6, in favor of Maine furnishes small indication of this exciting battle. The game was crowded with expectation and thrills that kept both stands on their toes from the start to finish. Colby's clean, hard playing and team work set a record that future Colby teams will have hard work to break. The following game with the Newport Naval Training Base was of a different nature. The Newport team worked hard, but lack of teamwork was very apparent, and Colby won, 2.5-6. In this game Colby showed the same spirit and team play that had so surprised Maine. The Bates game on Armistice Day closed the football season. The day was cold, and many accurate passes bounded from stiff fingers. The Garnet team was power- less against the Colby line which carried everything before it, and opened great holes in the Bobcat defence. Colby won, 14-O, making the second victory since the defeat of 1924. It is hoped that these victories over the Lewiston College will develop into an un- broken string.

Prospects for a good team depended upon the development of good pitching material which, as usual, was very scarce. The outfield and infield positions were filled by veteran material from the preceding year. The team worked well under Captain Peabody and closed a successful year by trimming Maine and Bowdoin, which gave us a tie for the State Championship with Maine. G The opening game with the University of Maine was played on Seaverns Field, April 23. Coach ltoundy started Anderson against the Maine team. It was Andy's first major game and he immediately proved that he had the stuff by holding Maine to three hits and one run in five innings. Trainor pitched the last four innings. The Colby sluggers found the Maine hurlers easy, so the result was a 7-1 victory. The team left for a three-game trip to Massachusetts and Rhode Island on April 25. Lowell Textile proved to be a willing victim in the first game. Heal held the Tex- tile batters helpless for seven innings while his mates were having a field day with home runs, doubles and triples in rapid order. Trainor worked the remaining innings. The following day, Colby battled Tufts in a tight game. The Colby team was up against Shuman, one of the best twirlers in New England. He pitched a great game, but our sluggers went right after him and chalked up three big runs early in the game. Coach Roundy used Trainor in the box. He pitched good ball for eight innings, during which time Tufts was unable to score a run, but blew up after two men had been re- tired in the ninth and was relieved by Anderson. Andy stopped the Tufts rally, and the two teams went into the tenth inning with the score 3-3. Colby scored the big run on a hard single by Scotty Marr, which scored Jack McGowan, who had lined out a beautiful 'triple 'to deep right. Rhode Island State defeated Colby 10-9 in the last game of the trip. Weather conditions were terrible, a heavy wind keeping the air filled with dry sand throughout the game. It was a poor ball game. Lowell Textile was again defeated when they played in Waterville, May 8. The Colby stickers had another big day, piling up a big lead at the start. Score, 13-6. The first State Series game was played May 12 against Bates. Charlie Small, the Bates star, was in the box, but proved ineffective against the Colby men. Credit should be given to Small for his work, as he had a bad ankle and should have been on the bench instead of pitching a ball game. The Bates infield was off color, too, all of which helped in the victory. Anderson twirled the full nine innings for Colby, and had an easy day. O'Brien circled the bases on a hit to center. Score, 9-3. Colby traveled to Brunswick May 14, and won its second State Series game, 8-5. Both teams hit well. Colby pulled a big rally in the ninth inning. Bowdoin was lead- ing, 5-3, when Colby went to bat. Hits, errors, daring base running, and the introduc- tion of pinch hitters by Coach Roundy, who played a nice hunch, pulled the game out of the fire. Heal held the Bowdoin team safely in the ninth inning. The University of Maine gave Colby its first Series defeat at Waterville, May 22. Perry, the Maine hurler, had a good day, yielding but five hits and one run, while Maine touched up Trainor and Anderson for eight hits and five runs. Colby entertained Connecticut Aggies on Seaverns Field, May 28. It proved to be a weird game. The Connecticut pitcher used a slow motion windup that proved de- ceptive. Heal started for Colby, but had an ofi' day, and retired in the third inning. Trainor went in and held the Aggies hitless and runless for the remaining six innings. Colby tried hard to overcome a nine run lead, but fell short, and had to accept defeat, 7-9. Keith and McGowan hit for four sacks during the game. Bates defeated Colby at Lewiston, May 29. It was a slow game, as Colby couldn't do much against Small who allowed four hits. On June 2, Colby traveled to Orono and defeated Maine in an exciting, eleven inning game. The score was 2-1, and it tells the story, as it was one of the best games of the year. Trainor and Perry booked up a pretty hurling duel, while both' teams played great ball. Capt. Peabody won the game with a long home run in the eleventh. Colby earned a tie for the State Championship by trimming Bowdoin on June 4. The whole Bowdoin team had an off day, while Colby celebrated with free hitting and smart baseball. Anderson twirled a nice game. Ted Smart, our star third baseman is Captain of the 1927 Club, and should lead the team through a successful season. He will have a strong nucleus in MacDonald, O'Brien, Anderson, and Trainor, lettermen, besides exceptional material in Hannifen, Erickson, Tierry, Scott, Callaghan, and Niziolek.

THE SEASON The Cross Country Team ran only one race this season. The team had only two regulars to depend on. However, several new men showed up well as the season progressed. The veteran Bates team had no 'trouble in leading the pack of runners home, while the Maine team found the going hard for second place. Next year's outlook for a good team seems much brighter.

Headed by Captain William Macomber, '27, the only veteran and letter man to return, the squad worked diligently and built a strong team from the large group of aspirants. Dudie Knox, '28, who had seen some experience in the previous season, landed one of the positions, while Red Tattersall, '29, and Dent Nickerson, '27, won the other positions on the team. With these men as single players, and with Macomber and Tattersall, and Knox and Nickerson pairing up in the doubles, Colby was well represented in all of the matches. In the State Series contests, the Colby quartet defeated the University of Maine, 5-1, lost to Bates College, 4-2, and ,were defeated by the strong Bowdoin team, 6-0. A closely contested match with New Hampshire resulted in a 4-2' loss. The team journeyed to Massachusetts and held Worcester Tech team to a 3-3 tie, but lost to the powerful Springfield University Club, 6-0. The State Tournament, which was held in Waterville, found Captain Macomber and Tattersall fighting for doubles honors, but they were forced to take the position of runners-up after playing the victorious Bowdoin pair and putting up the stiffest type of competition. The match went the limit in sets, and the Colby team deserves much credit for its achievement. Captain Macomber went to the semi-finals in the singles tournament, while Tat- tersall made a good showing for his first year in collegiate tennis, The-prospects for the next season's team are very fine, with all four of the letter men available, Captain Macomber, Knox, Tattersall and Nickerson.

The candidates for the positions left empty by the graduating class of '26, were all men who had been tried and were known to be capable of filling those positions. An exhibition game with Bowdoin at Waterville resulted in a 7 to 2 victory for the Blue and Gray. The Colby team had the advantage throughout the game. The high score was the result of one of the best exhibitions of team play ever seen at Colby. The following games, with the Ramblers at Portland, the University of New Hamp- shire at Durham, Cabots at Waterville, and the University of New Hampshire at Waterville were cancelled because of the weather. -Colby then played an exhibition game with Bates at Lewiston which was ve1'y close, Bates winning, 3 to 2, in the second over-time period. Two days later the Blue and Gray made up this defeat in a 2 to 0 win over Mass. Aggies at Waterville. The two teams were evenly matched, and both goals were the result of hard skating and clever passing. The first of the State Series games was with Bowdoin at Brunswick. This one bore no resemblance to that above. Both teams were in the best of condition, and it was not until the end of the second over-time period that the Polar Bears were able to break the tie for a 2 to 1 victory. The next game, with Bowdoin at Waterville, resulted in a 1 to 0 win for the visitors. Neither team had the advantage and neither of them seemed to be able to keep the puck. It was not until the second over-time period that Bowdoin succeeded in slipping' a goal by West. The following game with Bates was played in a snow storm and was of necessity slower than it would have been under ordinary conditions, but no less interesting to watch. The Roundymen played their hardest, but the Bob-cats were not to be defeated, and carried a 2 to 1 victory back to Lewiston. Colby then journeyed to Lewiston bent on avenging their defeats. This proved to be no easy task. It was not until the fourth over-time period that the Mulesters were able to make the goal that gave them a 3 to 2 victo1'y.

Among the various men who responded were several who had starred at the various preparatory schools from which they had come. Wallie Donavan, who, the year before had starred at Waterville High, was chosen to lead the team, and proved to be the mainstay of the backfield. He also proved his worth in his ability to carry the ball, and did some excellent work in punting. The results of the season were, on the whole, rather disappointing, but the spirit of the team was excellent and cannot be judged by the comparative scores. The summary of the games is as follows: Oct. 9 Oct. 16 Oct. 23 Oct. 301 Nov. 5 Kents Hill at Waterville E. M. C.

The program was a completesuccess from start to finish with loyalty and college spirit running high. The opening speech by Dean Reynolds, '14, was a cordial welcome to all alumnae and friends of the college. Following this were the class songs and speakers. Elizabeth Beckett, '30, spoke for the Freshmen, Beatrice Palmer, '29 for the Sophomores, Hilda Desmond, '28 for the Juniors, and Leonora Hall, '27 for the Seniors. After a vocal solo by Vivian Russell, '30, accompanied by Helen Paul, '29, Miss Minnie Bunker, ex-'89, rose to speak for the Alumnae. And what a delightful, interesting, informal little talk it was, filled with reminis- censes of the days when Colby was smaller in numbers, but just as large in the spirit of loyalty and service as it is today. How we enjoyed hearing cf those days, of the fine old professors, the college life, the ideals and hopes of those earnest, young peoplel, Yet we caught a glimpse into the realm of pleasure and fun, too, as she told of their little parties and of the necessary duty calls a few days later by the embarrassed young men who had been so fortunate as to be invited. Indeed, we enjoyed' her talk, and were pleased to find that her transfer to the University of California had in no way detracted from her first love-that for Colby. The last number on our program was an entertaining two-act farce, An Open Secret, presented by the Dramatic Club. The characters were as follows: Madge Apthorp, a college girl Martha Allen Jean, her confidante Frances Nason Mrs. Apthorp, her mother ' Florence Plaisted Grace Apthorp, her sister, aged ten Martha Sondberg Edith I I Doris Sanborn Elinor I I Louise Chapman Carrie Classmates I Lura Norcross May I Myrtle Main Kate I I Dorothy Giddings Agatha Meade, a girl not in the secret Helen Smith Music for the occasion was furnished by the Colby Girls' Orchestra. With the singing of Alma Mater, which now seemed to hold for us a new significance, another Colby Day came to an end.

President Roberts presided and introduced the speakers of the evening. Hersey Keene, a member of Colby's victorious 1905 team, spoke Hrst. He was followed by Dr. Stewart of the same team. 'The principal speaker was Dr. Herbert C. Libby, Mayor of Waterville. He declared that the team was backed by: a living and growing Colby, an interested and loyal faculty, the finest board of trustees in the country, an intensely loyal graduate and undergraduate body, loyal friends, and the greatest college president in the country. Senator Wadsworth, '92, chairman of the board of trustees, next en- couraged the team. Carroll N. Perkins, '04, the representative of the board of trustees, reminded the team that all former Colby teams were watching them. Dr. Marquardt, of the faculty, then rendered his usual interesting speech. The two final speeches were delivered by Coach Edward C. Roundy, and Captain Thomas F. O'Donnell, '27. Coach Roundy asserted his con- fidence in the team and in the fact that they were physically fit and would fight a good fight the next day. Captain O'Donnell expressed faith in both team and coach, and a firm purpose to do the best that was humanly possible. . Perhaps the most encouraging event of this memorable Colby Night was the President's prophecy that within two years Colby would possess a new gymnasium. This was heartily seconded by Senator Wadsworth. The oratory of the evening was well supplemented by the Colby and Hebron bands, and by the refreshments' supplied by President Roberts which were served by Chef Weymouth.

Miss Dorothy Hannaford, as mistress of ceremonies, gave the address of welcome.. Instead of the usual Spring Pageant, a very interesting program was put on by the Girls' Glee Club. Following the Operetta, Miss Helen Mitchell, Chalrman of Ivy Day, presented a corsage bouquet to Miss Emily Heath, leader of the Glee Club, in appreciation of her assistance in supervising the program, which was as follows: PART I a My Sun E. di Capuu b The Swan C.

Miss Edith Grearson, President of the Senior Class, conducted the planting of thc ivy, and presented the trowel to the Junior Class President, Frances Nason. The Ivy Day Ode, sung by all, concluded the exercises for the afternoon. ' In the evening a performance of William Shakespeare's Twelfth Night was pre- sented in modern costume, at the Junior High School. Professor Carl J. Weber directed the play. A vote was taken on whether the play was more or less effective in the modern background, but no decision could be made as the vote was evenly divided. The cast was as follows: Captain Mariner Sailor Sir Toby Belch Maria, Countess Olivia's maid Sir Andrew Aguecheek, one of Sir Duke Orsino Curio, an attendant on the Duke Fabian, Countess Olivia's bell boy Malvolio, Countess Olivia's steward Countess Olivia Lady-in-Waiting Sebastian, the brother of Viola Antonio, a soldier of fortune Officer of the Illyrian Police One hxwndred 'rLi1Leby-two Viola,.later disguised as Cesario T Frances Nason Ruth Dow Evelyn Estey Myrtle Main Julia Mayo oby's friends Dorothy Giddings Ardelle Chase Martha Davis Lura Norcross Martha Sandberg Helen Smith Alexandrine Fuller Louise Chapman Doris Sanborn Marguerite Chase EXHIBITIONS ,, 5'Qf'A,.:?.

' 2 ggi, QZLQJLLLEBYY scammers A9 -.., Z Dr. Marquardt In Dr. Marquardt were combined the virtues of his na- tive and of his adoptive country. He was 'typically German in his painstaking thoroughness, his scorn of superiiciality, his patient endurance of a grinding routine, in the tenacity with which he held to what he believed 'to be right and the fidelity with which he discharged every known duty. But, though born and bred in the north of Germany, he had little sympathy with the militaristic and imperialistic ideals of Prussia, and with his bride he early sought the privileges that America offered. And more keenly than the average native American he appreciated and enjoyed the freedom of life and breadth of opportunity which this country af- fords. He was proud to be an American citizen, and when America was called for he could sing it lustily straight through to the end and quite put to shame some of us na- tives who are apt to falter and fall out on the later stanzas. To him ours was the Sweet land of liberty, and he was one of its noble free. In politics, religion, and all of life he was an independent, impatient of all cramping dogmasg yet quick to respond to sentiment. Who of us that knew him can forget the light in his eyes and the music in his voice as he recited from his favorite German poets? Not only was Dr. Marquardt master of his own native language and literature, but he had also a quite remarkable command of the English language, and was quick to detect and prone to criticise any slipshod use of it by us to whom it is our mother-tongue. It afforded him distinct satisfac- tion to be able to correct his student's blunders in English expression. Dr. Marquardt was a born teacher. He made the classroom exercise so all-absorbing that the problem of discipline, in the narrow sense of the word, rarely arose. His happy tempering of sternness and strictness with flashes of pungent wit and humor saved him from the unhappy experiences that so many foreigners have when they undertake to teach our young barbarians. That same whimsical play of wit made a speech from Dutchy an in- dispensable feature of Colby Night. Perhaps few of us realized the sleep- less nights those speeches cost him before and after: before in pondering what he would say, and after in mourning over those best points that he forgot to bring out. What will Colby Night be without him? And what will Heaven be to him without his beloved Colby classroom and campus-and California? He loved Colby and was devotedly loyal to all her interests. He lo-ved his students and was intensely interested in their interests and enterprises. He held in memory and in his affection all the sons and daughters of Colby whom he had known in his 'thirty-five years of service, and watched ever with pleasure and with pride their suc- cesses. And who can estimate his contribution to those successes, or count up those eactm hours that he so freely added to an all-too-heavy schedule in his cieager desire that all, even the slowest and dullest, should make the gra e.

Xiljiigjx cegia v co mme , fqgffia Washington Square. New York City By BETTY MORSE Those of you who have been to Washington Square, South, may have caught up a fragment of its temperament, but only a fragment. To know Washington Square, South, to know its temperament, you must live there among those tall, overcrowded tenements, that line the narrow, dirty streetsg among the cries and laughter, the songs and threats of an Italian people that steadfastly refuses to become Americanized. Then, having noted all this sordidness and squalor, if you looked across the park to Washington Square, North, you were agreeably surprised, and also a bit perplexed. These two streets, Washington Square, South and Washington Square, North, that face each other with only a park between them, are extremely opposite in appearance and temperament. Washing- ton Square, North is an aristocratic street, and its inhabitants boast of position, wealth and distinguished ancestry. The irony of it! These two streets, as unlike as can be, face each other almost defiantly, and only a small park, two or three blocks square, to keep them properly sectioned off. The park itself is a place where a stu- dent of human nature may go in quest of material. There you may find occasional artists from the neighboring Greenwich Village in the conven- tional garb of unconventionality, trying to put on canvas a replica of New York University, or the Judson Memorial, or perhaps Washington Square Arch. There you may also find students from the University, lolling about in the sun, and watching the painted shop-girls who go by not at all uncon- scious of this appraisal. There, too, you may see nurse-maids perambulat- ing their charges, or keeping a watchful eye on them as they play on the lawn. Occasionally these children of fortune, who are much too young to be aware of social differences, make advances to the dirty, ragged Italian children who romp about noisily. They attract each other for some unknown reason, perhaps the poor marvel at the handsome clothes of the rich, and the rich, in turn, marvel at the slovenly rags of the poor. It is said that opposites attract. Uk Sk IF ak Four girls of possibly seventeen years of age were grouped together near the north side of the park. They looked like flowers, as sweet and expensively exquisite as a Fifth Avenue Shop could make them. And right in the middle of that pageant of flowers, like a splash of color, a single purple dahlia, was Toinette Givannio, very evidently from the Italian dis- trict to the south of the park. She was dark and exotic, and of a rich, lus- cious beauty. She was like a dahlia, only she lacked its fine, delicate finish. The girls who had encircled her, were imploring her to do something, but she was abashed at their loveliness. Their grace and poise made her feel self-conscious and awkward. She seemed confused. But I can't go, she was saying in liquid tones. For one thing, I haven't the clothes. I live down that way. She pointed south. What of that ? replied a slim girl in blue. I will lend you one of my dresses. Oh, perfect! My pale gold chiffon with your jet black hair! Grit, wouldn't she be the belle of the ball! My dear Toinette, you must go! We shall all meet at three tomorrow and make more arrangements. Bye! Two hundred eight 1,..K5'if x, 1g X M M AIAAI I 1, ,.A,....,..,, ,.., X u l: if cstoaezv totaatsu-.ta f1,f92Eiff3 're- J s Three girls waved a farewell, and made their way northward arm in arm. They were Margaret Alcott, Eleanor Peck, and Joan Sumner. CYou have heard of these prominent families, no doubt. Their names are known not only in New York, but in Paris, Vienna, and London. In the old days of the Metropolitan Opera House, when only the distingue could afford to attend, all eyes were promptly centered on these elite as soon as they en- tered their boxes. A low buzz would lift on the air and hover there until the rise of the curtain.D And now the daughters of such families were making a peculiar move. They were asking a person from below to one of their parties. Had social distinctions been erased, then? Had classes of society moved up or down, according to their positions, and merged into one? No, that had not yet come to pass. These girls, children of the rich, had no altruistic purpose in mind. In fact, they had always made it a point to snub all those whose stations in life were below their owng but these girls had played together in the park as children. Grit had had an Italian nurse who used to bid Toinette's mother the' time of day, while the children overcame their first shyness and became quite, friendly. As a youngster of five, Toinette was fascinated by these fortunate children, who in turn were attracted by her. But as they grew older, they realized that the park was not a melting potg it was a barrier between two classes. They realized that snubbing was necessary to show their superiority. On the part of Grit and her friends, snubbing was required to put persons in their proper placesg on the part of Toinette, snubbing was required to maintain some dignity. Living in adjacent neighborhoods, they met frequently, and Toinette often received the condescension of a pert nod o-f the head in recognition, she always returned the recognition as condescendingly as possible. Now, they had actually stopped her on her Way from high school and invited her to a party. It was almost unbelievable. Why, Toinette pon- dered. Why? While she washed the supper dishes, and attended to the fire in the stove, while she prepared her studies for the next day, she asked herself this question. And then, woman-like, she knew. It came on her all at once, and she felt that its truth was unquestionable. How do women know? They just know,-that is all the answer one can give. It was-it must be-Margaret A'lcott's brother, William. When Toinette was quite small, William, who was then called Boy, had force- fully tried to take from her an old stick that served, with the help of a faded pink ribbon, as a doll. She had immediately raised the stick, to which only a moment before she had been crooning a lullaby, and brought it down heavily on Boy's head. At once there were screams, tears, a mother apologizing profusely to an outraged nurse-maid, and a public beating for Toinette by her parent. Since then Boy had held her somewhat in awe, fear was mixed with admiration. Even when, during the process of growing up, an unwritten law pulled them in opposite directions, this incident was not forgotten. Toinette sensed William's glances of approval as she passed him, although she did not venture to look his way. That was it! William wanted to see herg to see of what stuff she was made. Well, she would let him see. The only difference between them, after all, was that their parents were rich while hers were poor. Their fine manners came from the private tutoring they got. The tutoring was a result of wealth. It all came from money-. She stormed and raged about wealth, and how poorly apportioned Wealth was. Two himdred 'nine J5 r .--.It?.9992f3V C9 5-ill' -1'--S.. WU When the day of the party arrived, Toinette was in Grit's room, admir- ing herself in the long glass. Her borrowed gown of gold chiffon made her look like a young goddess. She was lovely, and knew it. She was formally introduced to Williamg she acknowledged the intro- duction as formally. Could she be Toinette Givannio Cshe thoughtl brought up in squalor and ugliness? With what magnificent bravado she took her place beside him, on a divan in the window, piled high with beau- tiful cushions, and sat there between horror and fascination. She thought of sunlight laughing in and out of prison bars, and the inner glow that pos- sessed her, spread out and made her eyes scintillate. This, then, was the captivating world which always seemed to stretch just beyond the reach of her finger tips! This music, this dancing, these pretty girls, this lovely room! She had quite forgotten William. What had he been saying all 'this time? Oh, yes-that stick with the pink ribbon. She managed to answer yes or no occasionally, although she barely heard what he said. When she had danced several times-always with William, and always returning to the divan in the window, she began to sense an uncomfortable situation. She realized that everyone at the party held himself or herself a little aloofg that William, too, was merely satisfying a peculiar whim. They had found a cheap toy in a ten-cent store and were going to play with it a while, then toss it away in scorn, and return to their more expensive playthingsl Toinette looked about her. Until now, she had been blinded by the sumptuousness of the place, but all at once she saw through it. Here were these girls, irresponsible, vain snobs. What did all this amount to-all this sparkling, incessant talk, almost gushing as if bidding for favor or popularity? Is this what the north side stood for? Mere mechanical life, false relationships, and perpetual convention. It was not for Toinette. At least there was purpose in life at the south side. She liked that word purpose She was only seventeen, and could not conquer the world, but she was going back to her south side with a purpose. She would teach, preach, and practice there, and lift their living to a higher plane. Care to dance this one? William looked hopeful. Well, just this one, and please, I should like to be taken home. What! So soon! Life has not begun yet ! No, it hasn'tg but it starts with a purpose now. Just one dance and I must go. She went. The next morning she remarked to her work-worn mother, Did you ever know the difference between there Cpointing a fingerj and here? We have wooden sticks about which we tie a pink ribbon, and we build up dreams about them. The stick becomes a doll. The doll becomes realy it talks, etc. They have real things, lovely dolls, and fail to see their value. We have purposeg they drift. That's the difference between Wash- ington Square, North and Washington Square, South. Give me this side! Two hundred ten ,'.x .,A.k, .

MAE: The young wife of Marcwell Dahlgren LORRE TURNER: The former lover of Mae SANDRA: A maid TIME: Mid-afternoon of a warm day in July PLACE: The Dahlgren home in Santa Barbara, California SCENE:: It is mid-afternoon of a warm surmmcr d-ay at the beginning of July. The sun, streaming in from the windows on either side of the well- stocked bookcase built into the wall at the right, tints with an unreal glow the needle-point design on the easy chair placed at best a-dvan- tage for the light from the further window and for ready accessibility to the shelves. The warm light, striking the daintily colorful design of the rugs on the polished floor, seems to belle the coldness of the hearth on the left, which, though partially obscured by an ornate screen, lends its atmosphere to the cooling ease of the divan which rests in .t-he shadow of a heavy oblong, highly polished table standing in the center of the room and facing the fire-place at an e-asy angle. An easy chair has been placed at the upstage end of the fire-place and faces the divan. From half-opened French windows at the back of the room, left, a fit- ' ful breeze stirs the leaves of a book of co-mpositions opened at random on the rack of the baby grand piano standing in the corner, back-left. Back-right opens into a tapestry-hung hall connecting with the out- side, and offering the only entrance to .t-he room. Upon one end of a table a silk .hat with gloves and cane has been meticulously pla-ced. The other end holds at telephone hidden in the quaint form of an old- fashioned doll. To the right of the French windows is at writing desk of delicate work- manship. is ak Sk 'K ACTI .

CExists.J CMae looks down at the jewel-case and absent-mindedly runs her fin- giers ofver the embellished surface. Her thoughts are far from Santa Barbara. Finally, picking up the casket, she carries it to the divan where she sits, one leg curl-ed under her, the case in her lap.J MAE Cstill toying with .the carved lidh : Memories, how they linger! They spring to life when we are least prepared. f,She takes a tiny key sus- pended from a delicate gold chain around her neck, unlocks and slow- ly opens the casketj Why can we never completely destroy the traces of yesterday? CShe takes a sealed letter from the bottom of the cas- ket and fingers it.J Lorre, you impulsive dear. You said you would never write. How long ago that seems now. How far away.

Green- wich is far from Santa Barbarag it must forever be far from Max Dahlgren's wife. CMae hesitates, then carefully .t-ears the unopened letter into tiny bits. She rises and goes to the fire-place where she draws aside the screen, and places the torn shreds of the letter on the hearth.J It is over, Lorre, it must be over. I gave you everything, everything I had to offer. Now, Cas she lights the torn scraps of the letterb it is over. CShe stands suddenly as though to drive the thoughts from her mind, and yet the crinkling paper holds a fascina- tion for her. She is loath to turn away. She muses.J You said you would never write, but you did. You vowed you would never see me again, but-Oh, Lorre, you did come after all. You haven't forgotten, and, Ga choked sob escapes herb dear God, neither have I. QDoor bell rings.J 0Mae turns, startled. There is a suggestion of guilt in her manner as she faces the hall. Sandra, dressed for the street, is seen going to the I door.J LORRE Coutsidej : Is Mrs. Dahlgren at home? SANDRA fat hall entrance! : A gentleman to see you, M'am. MAE: You may show him in. And Sandra, that will be all. We shall be at home two weeks from tomorrow. You will be ready then, of course. fAs Sandna exits, Lorre enters, a much-worn panama in his hound. He is of medium height, his well-knit frame accentuated by the genteel shabbiness of his clothes.J LORRE Cladoancingj : Mae! MAE Ccrossing to meet himj : Hello, Lorre! Let me take your hat.

LORRE fast he takes a worn package of cigarettes from his pocketj : My, but you must be happy here. fMae indicates that he is to sit in the easy chair by the fire-place. Lorre accepts the proferred chair and silt-s, his legs nonchalantly crossed, the fingers of one hand caressing the texture of the chair arm wihile the other hand holds his cigarette. He muses, gazing thought- fully at the cigarette. In the silence that follows, Mae covertly studies Lorre.J MAE: When did you come out, Lorre? LORRE fstill musingj : Last week. QLorre fumbles with the package, and offers a cigarette to Mae. She .accepts it and smoothes it out. They both light up. Lorre sinks back into the chair.J LORRE: I've quit the store. I bummed my way out from New York to San Francisco, and got a lift down here yesterday in a car. I'm going to paint stage scenery in Los Angeles. That willmake enough money to keep me alive while I'm doing my own painting. But I will be here in Santa Barbara two or three weeks before I go. MAE Cimpulsioely, as she thinks of the vacation that has been plannedh : But- foalmerj That's just wonderful, Lorre. I'm so glad you left. You hated that job so. LORRE fanimatedy : Mae, do you remember the day you said I'd never have the courage to leave the store? That was the day we had a long argu- ment about your solo dance with the Oukranski Company. CMa-e nods pensivelyj Well, a month later, about the time you married Max Dahlgren, I got a raise. Then another followed, andfather congratu- lated me on settling down. About two weeks ago he made me head of the furniture department-that's a pretty big job, you know. He told me that he was glad I had given up trying to be temperamental. He looked so damned solid and comfortable that I laughed in his face, went back to our-well fwith an apologetic smiley my rooms, and never saw the office again. fLorre pauses and folds his armsj I had the courage, Mae. fMas had been listening, smoking .her cigarette with quick, short puffs. She has gradually relaxed on the divan until now she seems perfectly at ease.J MAE: Good for you, Lorre. That's splendid.

MAE: No, we haven't seen any of them. Max doesn't like them very well. CLorre closes the book, stubs his cigarette in a tray on the table, looks at Mae, .t-hen strolls to the bookcase frightj, where he becomes inter- ested in looking oiver the shelves. Suddenly he turns.J LORRE: You've given up dancing? MAE: Yes, I gave up dancing. Max thought-Oh, Lorre, have you another cigarette? QLorre fishes out another cigarette and offers it to Mae. He lights it for her across .the table. He looks again at Mae who is staring into the fire-pl-a.ce,' re-arranges the trinkets on the table, then goes to the French windows and looks out.J LORRE tturning suddenlyj 1 For God's sake, Mae, where are you going? What are you doing? I can't bear to see you rot away here, you with so much. CMae shrugs her shoulders indiyfferently. Lorre comes up to .the chair he has oaca-ted and draws it close to the divanj Have you forgotten that wonderful night when Olive Sterns played for you, and you danced and we all sat around on the floor, or on the low bed- springs in the corner of Peggy's big living-room on Perry Street? You danced wonderfully, Mae. I guess you are laughing at me because I came here after vowing that I'd never see you again if you left me and married Max. The vow was stupid, I guess. Stupid? Maybe it was stupid of me to come. GLorre throws his head back, and stares at the ceiling. Mae starts impulsioely as though to go to Lorre, then settles back on the dioan.J MAE: No, Lorre, it was very nice of you to let me know that you had come to town.

In sympathetic eagerness the willows by the brink bend every sil- vered leaf, and approaching twilight has hushed the voice of the forest. Narcissus bends to his image in the mirroring waters. To touch this vision! He is so close and he would take it to his bosom if he could. Too well he knows that if his breath fall too! heavily upon it, it will 'vanish utter y. If he could but stay away he need not feel this poignancy of inter- mingled joy and torture. But he cannot stay away! Sk wk Sk :lc The sounds of a universe are stilled, and the spirits of all 'the earth listen in a silence surcharged with emotion. The course of the ages stands for a moment, for a mother comes close to the heart of her child, and the child is a quiet pool of welcome. How near! The great noises of battle fade away and are not heard. The fate of nations attends, for in the grim tension of battle two soldier-pals almost enter one into the heart of the other. Almost! The poignant pity of the gulf. If we would dull that feeling of frustration and would not sense the gulf, we must needs dwell apart in spirit, never drawing close to the hearts of our fellows. But we cannot stay away! HOURS BEFORE DAWN Spray, Zipping against dark rocks, deep-grooved By the gnashing of angered, hungry waves, Foiled by their bulwark Through numberless eons. Sky, Sleepily buoying on its soft bosom Proud-sailing pirate clouds. Winging away In the dawning. Hours before dawn Had hidden the whole of this glory, Except the kiss of wind and the splash of waves, But somehow, Just the feel of the wind on my cheek Was ecstasy supreme. M. R.

Mohammed would 'have di1 l'ered with Christ, Napoleon with Lincoln, and so on. Each of us has his conception of what greatness is. The writer of this article happened to be trailing a big bus once, in which was a college football teamigoing out of state to play another college team. The bus stopped at a crossroads where a kid was selling sand- wiches. A member of the team asked the boy to hand the basket in through the door so each might have a little lunch. With an eager grin the kid passed the basket of sandwiches to the player. Here was business. Here was more money than he'd made in a long time. But wait a minute. Suddenly the basket came fiying through the door and landed at his feet. Here, kid, here's yer baskit. A number of wise cracks came from within the bus, 'then they were gone. Not a cent had been paid for the sandwiches. Not even a thank you. The kid began to cry. But it wasn't to patch a broken heart that I passed him a two-dollar bill. I hate to see a kid lose faith in human nature, especially through a football team, where he's supposed to find it. There must have been some man on that team who wanted to pay the boy, but maybe he'd have been the butt of a few wise cracks., A football player isn't supposed to show emotion. Anyway it was apparent that no one in the car knew that one on the side of fair play is a majority. Was that a great football team? ANON. A BRICK AND A MAN Try as I will, - Do what I can, I like a brick More than a man. Take up a brick And throw it downg Break it in two, Toss it around. Lay up a brick, And there 'twill stay, But you can't 'treat a man In just that way. I like a man Less than a brick, For one will run, While the other will stick. R. M. G.

Sequestered, there he lives and works alone. At times by straining of the inward eye, I have been able secretly to spy Upon this craftsman hid, but could not tell If he to me were foeman, or ally. When he desires, on the anvil of my mind, To some formation strange by him designed, He beats a morsel of my thought, wherefore I know its essence only, not its kind. Himself the same alway, his outward guise Is multiform. New shapes he occupies, But still there is in all of them some mark By which the hidden djinn I recognize. A hairy carcass, with a matted skin Caught round its ribs and haunches thin, That marked on stone with charred and crumbling wood, Thus once I saw himg grisly was his grin. A rugged form, in smoky leather dressed, With frost scarred cheeks and eyes wind stressed, Whose gnarly hands were sore perplexed to carve On ivory tales his prowess to attest. A roaring sort of man with lovelocked hair, His table littered, ale pots, rapiers yare, He writes, and jests, and blows an errant kiss. I've watched him laugh, I've heard him swear. Half hid within a dirty hood, his face Deep lined and scowling, eyes that ever race About the parchment sere before him spread, A monkish man, an ugly, grim grimace.

And once, nay, more than once, his mouth adrool, His wry ribs wrapped in motley, on a stool Odd carved, before an empty throne he wept- His sobs made ring his belled cap-a fool. I see him most a scholar old and sage, A courteous, gentle man, and glad to wage Profound discourse, with stately, graceful speech, The sapience of his lips denies their age. If only once I could break through and seize Him fast, and make him strain the sodden lees Of time, put on and doff his several persons, The things he'd tell ere he regained his ease! CYNICUS. SONNET CONCEIVEZD IN A MOVIE I fear that love is but a deep morass Of doubt, a fleeting phantom of despair, A draught with bitter dregs, and doomed to pass With swiftness of a falling comet-flare. All precious things will meet decay and rust, The bee will mourn the rose's drooping head, To,day's rare gifts will be tomorrow's dust, Your lips, my sweet, will lose 'their ripened red. But like the warrior who, sword-pierced lies Inside a tent and with his failing breath Deludes himself and mockingly denies With song and jest the imminence of death. I reassure myself and gayly say: Our love will last forever and a day. P. N., '28.

Here I saw him fold The pointed petals gently, While deep in 'thought he gazed intently At its crown of gold. 7 As in his garden So the man was in his world: Good to look upon, Staunch of limb and noble face: To the manner born with a natural grace To win him friends, Love, wife, home and place In the affairs of men, That many covet but seldom gain, Possessed of boundless wealth, Surrounded by beauty, he, With youth and health Could choose as he willed. But the urge in his heart had been seemingly stilled, And the lure of the lovely was silent and cold In the warmth of his passion For one marigold. R. M. G.

A el ' 'Fw THE FOOL AND THE KING A king had once seated himself down to eat, When a fool perchance entered and knelt at his feet, And he said, O, good master, please give me a crumb, I'm sick and I'm hungry, for miles I have come. The king turned and scowled as he said to the fool, Get hence, lazy knave, for I've made it a rule That none shall come here and receive e're a thing 'Till first they give something that's good for the king. Then up rose the fool and the king sadly eyed: O Master, remember the Savior who died On the cross years ago by old Galilee, How He once bathed the feet of one lower than he. Then mild grew the king as he said to the fool, Eat, my good man, for you've paid me in full. Drink from my glass and taste each fine thing, For you've surely brought something that's good for the king. la R. M. G. CON SOLATION Under the stars at night there comes to me A vision of the destiny of man. Touching with soothing hands a restless brain, Healing an aching heart made sick by strife. - And needless pain-just retribution for My own shortcomings in my daily tasks. Consoled by this there visits me a peace Which by its potent charm enables me To view all men and things with calmer sight- To measure and to balance without fear And give to every man the justice dueg A courage too, that rushes through my veins, A river crystal clear bestowing life On parched and burning sands. The mind of man, Made over cautious by rebuffs of day, Needs such a restoration, else his fears Turn all his gain to loss-and blessed hope That, though we know not whence our lives may come, Nor whither bound that thing we call our soul, To die is but to live, that life goes on Beyond the grave in brighter, better, ways.

Before Taking After Taking ' TESTIMONIAL I was an instructor in a small college in the East and to recover from the effects I began taking VIVO-VINO and the results were astonishing. I began to think I was somebody and knew something. For years I sufered with insomnia which manifested itself everywhere, but in the class-room, where I often went sound asleep. Occasionally I would wake, but this was not often. I gradually grew thin until my friends no longer recognized me. One morning I went to put on my tie before the mirror and to my chagrin I found that I had tied it to the broomstick which stood directly behind me. I could stand it no longer-time and again I fell through my collar-at last I heard of a remarkable discovery-VIVO-VINO-and knowing it could make me no worse I decided to try a bottle. The results were quick and positive. I began to get to class on time and actually began to have something to say when I got there. The hollows in my neck began to fill out and I discovered that at last I could keep my head from falling through my collar. No longer am I troubled with strombosis of the repocardical phary- niptieal empedosis, and the bronchitical empyemia has entirely disappeared. Hairs have begun to manifest themselves on my chest. Thank God, I say, for VIVO-VINO. I am so happy that I want to tell all my friends. Thank God, again for this remark- able discovery. Now I know my little sister loves me.

Here we shall visit the birthplace of that immortal playwright, Hamlet. He it was, you know, who wrote that greatest of all comedies, Shakespeare During the course of our sojourn we shall visit the exact spot where Shakespeare slew the gentle Des- demona, crying as he did so, E pluribus gadget, the house divided against itself cannot wabble in the wabe. Here it was that Othello raised his cursed dag- ger and smote Julius Caesar in the for- um. Here, too, did Sir John Falstaf, in words galvanic denounce the cunning Iago. O, land of historic lore, here it was that the noble King Lear, crown in hand, uttered the prophetic words, By all the laws of etwymology, swinetax and prosoodie, the sledded Polock shall not pass! I never read this glowing tribute, but what I am reminded of the gentle words of our own George Wash- ington, who, speaking at the Battle of Gettysburg, remarked, You can part all of the people part of the fool, and people all of the fool part of the people, but you can't time all of the part of the fool. On such a night methinks Troi- lus mounted the Venetian walls and ere the cock crew thrice threw his slipper at the sleeping Jessica. And now, gentle Reader, that our fearful trip is done, may there be no moaning at the bar, when time like a pulse shakes fierce through all the world, for he said, Fight on! Fight on! and in the spring a young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love, to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield, for they're hang- ing Danny Deever in the mornin'. PROSPERO. MAYOR MAKES HIS REPURT Since I have been Mayor of Waterville I have saved the city many dollars. I have not only saved the city money, but I have given Water- ville, beyond any shadow of a doubt, I think, the best administration that it has ever had. I have given of my time and service and I shall be only too glad to continue to do so-for 51,500 a year. I am not going to make this report a bombastic tirade of words, I am too well known by all of you to have to do such: that is not my policy. I do not blow my own horn: I am not that sort. As I have often said before, Modcsty is as modesty does, and is but skin deep. However, my motto is Speak for myself, Herbert. My platform is an l for an I, and me first. myself second. In closing I announce my appointments, the infusion of new blood should be of great benefit to the city. 7, Chief ol' Police, Howard Phelps Kelsey Overseer ol' the Poor, I'lverett Fisk Strong liand Master, Lowell Quinton Haynes Inspector of Sewers and Lighthouses, Matthew Whiting Rosa 61' Fire Chief, C.

Shall I stand and recall the despair of my youth, and its doubts and its hopes, And recalling, be cast once again into doubt by the soul that still gropes? Shall I dare 'gainst rebuffs of the past to anticipate Sesame then, O ye artist of ages, ye architect ancient, eternal, and maker of men? I shall dare! I shall hope! I shall live but to learn, but to read as you paint. I shall follow your work, I shall glean what you mean, be the tracery faint, I shall learn to discern by your work of the past, by your pastels of youth, That at last, when the picture time's infinite dawn, I may know and be known by the truth.
