PAGE TWENTY-SIX V V D D MIAMI l9l6 Founder's Day Interesting, too, was the sketch Dean Brandon gave of the first year of University activity from 1824 to 1825. There were not so many students in those days, but the vigilant professors even then took keen delight. in marking down absences, and the habitual class cutters were as surely ear-marked then as they are today. Professor Upham told the history of the founding and activity of the literary societies. The celebration of the anniversary did not end with the seven- teenth, but for the remainder of February part of the west room of the library was utilized for an exhibit of particular interest to all who were concerned with the history of the earlier days of Old :VIiami. This Miami Historical Exhibit contained maps showing the resi- dence of students and the distribution of alumni at different times in the college history; also graphs of attendance showing the growth of the University, the Old peace pipe, and various other exhibits of historical interest. Thus the Observance of Founders Day with a renewal of all the wealth of history, legend, and anecdote which makes Miami famous, has done much to make the students of the New Miami understand and appreciate the life of Old Miami as it was in the days Of her early history.
