s il G i o 2 o O R attlfiousel, HISTORY OF 1920 IN 1917 Now it happened that in the ninth month and on the twenty-fifth day qf thc' montl1 there came unto Connecticut College a glorious company of people, strong in spirit and learned with wisdom. For behold! They were Freshmen. And on the first and second day there was consternation upon the Freshmen, yea, anfi confusion was in the place round about them and even homesickness, it did gnaw at their hearts. And it so happened that a people called the Sophomores, dwelling beside them, bade them to a great feast. And the Freshmen, who were innocent, came unto the country which is known as Bolleswood. And behold, they were deceived and made to humble themselves unto the ground and humility did cover them as a cloak. Now, in the tenth month and on the fourth day of the month there came unto them a man who stood in the open, and they were all assembled together, they and the Sopho- mores with them. Round ahout on the ground were they gathered, every one in her place, and a likeness was taken of them, the like whereof has heen seen neither before nor since. And the stranger who had come within their gate was strange indeed, and he did perform mightily, and his wrath waxed hot and he did utter strange words. And on the twenty-eighth day of the month the Freshmen did send word to the Sophomores and bid them come and make merry in the Hall called Thames. And they came and there was dancing and much laughter and peace was made on that night. Yea, even friends went they forth together from that night on. In the eleventh month and on the third day of that month the Freshmen assembled and met together as they had not done up to this time. For it seemed wise to them to have counsellors in their midst, and they made unto themselves those whom they deemed fttest to be their law-makers. And the names of those whom they raised up unto this office are these.: Alice Horrax, who is gifted with understanding, even her did they choose for their President, and the fame of her has gone out before her and made her companions to re- toice; and Harriet Allen, raised they up to sit next to the high place and they made her Vice-President, and verily, I say unto you, wisdom was in their choice, for there dwelleth not among theFreshmen one who is more just; yea, and they did also raise up Edith Lind- holm to be their chief scribe, and she s beloved of all the company and she is full of faith- fulness; and for the Keeper of the Treasury did the Freshmen choose Kathryn Hulbert, for she hath dlhgf:nc? and doeth good work; likewise did they choose Ruth Barber to be the Keeper of their history. Now the eleventh day of the eleventAh month was a day decreed by the ancients to be a day whereon the ruler of all the peoples in the land should be appointed to his place. And there was a great cry among the Freshmen and the Sophomores and they sent out and sought for red-fire and trumpets and there were many fires burning on that night upon the hills and kigh places, and they assembled together and great was the joy thereof. And lo! they compassed the qulegg round about and their number was exceeding great. And b;i:hold. they lifted up their voices and cried aloud and called upon President Sykes. For they de: 16
