A G' f f fl f ff' tri Jo, QSM my Q, Q. L. p tr Avi Was was afeas-My eorfofp QQOLFOIQ if Ig? gb X P4473 E 2 from 2 .y ' S -3, '5 DEAR SARGICNTA BOARD! I can see the amazed looks on the faces of all of you from the editor-in-chief down to the smallest of assistants, when you hold this letter before your eyes. Let me explain! Once, I too Went to Sargent, once, I even belonged to the Sargenta Board, that august body, once, I was one of the stealthiest of all frivolous persons, who climbed out of a dorm Window after dinner, one trembling leg after the other, to visit at another dorm, ah! once, dear Board, I was young and giddy. Against my will, I Went to practiceg I was enticed to theory even, at rare intervals Qto write let- tersj 9 and now that I am a serious-minded instructor out in the Wide Wicked world, I look back on my school days with the longing that I might live them over once again. As this is impossible CI am sensible enough now to realize even thatlj, I racked my brain for something, and suddenly, I decided to Write sepa- rately to each dorm and learn of its doings. And I did. The girls were just great about sending me cute interesting things to illustrate what they had been doing. I lived again all my school life from the greenest of verdant Freshmanhood to the staidest of solemn Seniority. Their funny descriptions of themselves and each other seemed just too good to keep all to myself, so I am sending you by registered mail all their letters, with the hope that you will have at least one good laugh along with all your hard Work. Now will you forgive me for presuming to write to such a terrifyingly, remotely, intellectual gathering, and forgive Your most sincere and well-wishing friend, A GR.-xm'.'x'1'1a. ' 144
