The spectrum of college life at Maine State as refracted by the rays of the ’95 Prism, has been examined most thoroughly by the keen eye of the student, by the spectro- scope of the faculty, and by the alumni, whose mature years, together with their interest in the best welfare of the College, necessarily gives to them the right to criticise. All have viewed it, each from his own standpoint, and nothing but commendation for the zeal displayed by the editors from this class, has been manifested. We have been materially assisted in our work by the '95 editors, whose experience and advice have aided us over many difficulties which habitually beset such ventures, and we ask those who peruse this volume to give our predecessors credit for any ideas which they may have originated last year. College annuals portray the life at the institution which they represent to a degree which cannot be too highly estimated. They fall into the hands of students of other colleges more frequently than do the catalogues, and in many cases this is their only means of knowing any facts concerning the institution from 6 which these annuals come. Therefore, living as we do in this fin dr sieclr era, we have endeavored to maintain the high standard of Thk Prism in the hope that Maine State’s publications may ever be abreast of the times. With the largest Freshman class that ever entered the College, with a prospect of a still larger class next fall, and with an augmented income with which to increase the facilities of instruction, the College has never had a brighter outlook, and one should be pardoned for any optimistic views which he may hold in regard to the future of the Maine State College.

FIRST PRESIDENT Ol- THE MAINE STATE COLLEGE. pOR three years after the opening of the Maine State College for students it was without a president. During the first two years its faculty consisted of a professor of mathematics who was “ acting presi- dent.” and a farm superintendent who was instructor in agriculture.” There were also during these two years three non-resident lecturers for portions of each term—the College year then being divided into three terms. In the third year the facultv was increased by the addition of a professor of chemistry, an instructor in botany and horticulture and an instructor in French and German. The staff of non-resident lecturers had also been increased to six. among whom were Prof. K. S. Morse on zoology: I)r. A. S. Packard. Jr., on entomology, and Mr. X. A. Willard on dairy farming—men all eminent in the lines of their specialties. Throughout these early years in the history of the College the matter of choosing a president was one which had received much attention from the trustees. It had been discussed in meetings of the board, had been left to committees of corresj ondence, and the more it was considered, apparently greater seemed the matter of choice. It was by no means an easy thing to select the man for the place. The College was new and was to he administered upon wholly new lities in the higher education. There was also much opposition to it—opposition which came from already established colleges, from public men of high influence, from legislators, and from |x-ople in nearly all sections of the State—not excepting those in the near locality of its establishment. Under such a condition of public sentiment it can at once be seen that the task of the trustees was most perplexing. As made up in 1871, the year of its choice of first president, the board of trustees consisted of two Congregationalists. one Baptist, one Friend, one Catholic, one Swedenborgian and two whose religious sentiments arc not known. That such a board should have selected a Met hot list and a clergyman is evidence of their non-sectarian control, anti also 17 evidence that the man of their choice was broader than his denomination, greater than any sect and a representative f the highest material interests and best good of the entire people of the State. The man selected was Rev. Charles Frederic Allen, already an eminent minister of the Methodist church. Mr. Allen was born in the old historic town of Xorridgewock, January l lfi. He came of the splendid old New England ancestry noted for its integrity, moral strength and great common sense. His father was William Allen, a native of Martha's Vineyard, who early settled in Maine—first in Industry, subsequently in Norridgewock. He was prominent in town, county and state affairs throughout his long and useful life : was a member of the Constitutional Convention of Maine; was widely known for his high business ability and integrity: published a genealogy of the Allen family, and histories of Industry and Norridgewock : was father of the Methodist church in the latter place, and died ai the advanced age of 93 years. Of his family was the eminent Dr. William Allen. President of Bowdoin College: while Rev. John Allen, widely known as Campmeeting John Allen, and during tile last years of his life chaplain of the Maine House of Representatives, was his uncle. Mr. Allen fitted for college in select schools in his own town with one term at Bloomfield Academy, and at the age of 19 entered Bowdoin College, of which I)r. William Allen was then President. At his graduation in 1.339, Mr. Allen was one of four in the first rank of scholarship in his class—and at present, Ik side himself, the only survivor of the class is Hon. John C. Tallrot of Machias. During his course at college he taught school in several towns in Maine, and after graduation was appointed instructor in Maine Wesleyan Seminary at Kent’s Hill, and for one year was preceptor of St. Albans Academy. In 1K43, Mr. Allen entered the ministry of the Methodist church, and lietween that date and the time of his election as President of the State College, had received appointments to eighteen different charges, including most of the larger and more important churches in the Maine Conference. It was a complete change in the whole course of his life-chosen profession—that from the work of the ministry to the presidency of a new college, the development and shaping of which, along its untried lines of education. Mr. Allen was to undertake. But it was one for which he was admirably fitted. The instruction of the class room was not new to him, but a task in which he was completely at home. Of some of the branches which came to his chair as President—English Literature and Mental and Moral Science—he was a thorough master—while of those for which no chair had been provided. like Rural Law. he very soon became master. Always a close student of human nature, he knew boys through and 18 through, and knowing them so well they all loved him and he managed them in the most happy and easy way. His practical common sense, keen business ability and dignified but genial manner were strong elements in his popularity and success, and of all these qualities he had complete and harmonious control in adjusting himself to his new position and shaping the work of the College in its somewhat experimental mission. It was a most difficult work, with limited means and few assistants, to lay the foundation of a college that should afford facilities for a liberal education, especially adapted to those who were to engage in productive industry and business life. Without undervaluing the importance of classical studies for those who were to enter on a professional career, it was deemed necessary to direct the students of the State College to scientific studies and modern literature rather than to Greek and Latin—to do something more than to make successful farmers or skillful artizans—the design of the College was to make educated men. with a broad and generous culture especially fitted for those who were to engage in industrial pursuits. When President Allen came to Orono lie found the College with a total of forty students. He sent out the first class from the institution with their diplomas—that class of six which graduated in 1X72. During the eight years of his most successful administration of the College, lie sent forth to their life work in the eight classes of its graduates. 11D students, and left the institution with a total of 102 students in its four classes. Among the graduates during his term as President, who have reached high distinction as specialists in different branches of science may lx mentioned: Prof. George II. Hamlin, of the State College: Dr. W. H. Jordan. Director of the Maine Kxperiment Station; Prof. Edward H. Farrington, Chemist to the Illinois Experiment Station; Dr. Geo. P. Merrill. V. S. National Museum. Washington, I). C.; F. IS. Kidder, Architect. New York. N. Y.. and Dr. F. Lainson-Scribncr. I'. S. Botanist. Depart- ment of Agriculture. Washington, D. C The faculty of the College was increased between the years 1X71 to 1879 from four to eight professors. Among these were three of its own graduates, and of the eight associate professors during the term of President Allen, four are still members of the faculty. Dr. M. C. Fernald, who was a professor under President Allen, has retired after the long sen-ice of fourteen years as President of the College; Prof. Charles II. Fernald is now at the Massachusetts Agricultural College, and Prof. Walter Balentine. a graduate of '74. and for thirteen years the able and beloved Professor of Agricul- ture at the College, deceased in 1894. During President Allen's term ol service he was, cxojicio. a member of the State Board of Agriculture. This brought him into close and intimate relations with the people of Maine at the various farmers’ 19 conventions of the Board, held in the different counties, and into vital contact with the fanners and mechanics whose sons and daughters were active or prospective students at the College. By his many public addresses before these assemblies, on subjects connected with general agricultural education, the special education for farmers and mechanics and the aims and methods of study at the State College, President Allen did a noble work in l chalf of the institution and in acquainting the people of the State with its grand object—work which is still bearing good fruit and which will not fail of its influence to this end for years to come. Before sessions of the Maine legislative committees, where the wants of the College were from time to time presented, President Allen was always an eloquent, effective and convincing speaker: and legislators believed in the College lnicause they believed in its President. It was also largely through President Allen's counsel and advice that his old friend, ex-Governor Abner Coburn, made the College the munificent bequest of $100,000. As master of ceremonies” at commencement dinners, his presiding was most courteous, genial and dignified, and his remarks in introducing speakers were always of the most happy character. It is to be doubted if there was ever a student who came under President Allen's care for any considerable length of time, but can trace in his own life the good influence of the moral training, thorough education and kindly interest given by his beloved President. In 1S7‘J, President Allen received the degree of 1) I) both from Howdoin College and from Wesleyan University, Middletown, Conn. After having seen the College firmly established upon a broad and sure foundation in its popular career. I)r. Allen felt it his duty to again resume the sacred calling which had been his life work, and which lie had for a time laid aside that lie might aid in the establishment of this important enterprise for the education of the sons and daughters of the farmers and mechanics of Maine. He accordingly resigned the presidency of the institution at the close of the college year of 1871 . Again, at the age of f 3, I)r Allen re-entered the active sendee of the ministry with physical powers and mental vigor unimpaired and is still in constant pastoral work. During this latter period of ministerial service he has been for four years presiding elder of Lewiston district: seven years secretary of the Maine Conference; has been twice chosen a delegate to the General Conference; for four years was a member of the book committee of the Methodist Publishing House, and in 1876 was a member of the revision committee of the Church Hymnal—the admirable body of religious hymns in use- by the Methodist Church in this country. Here his fine and critical education and love for the grand old hymns of the early days of 20 the church, prevailed to save many of these hymns to the new collection, when at first a large number of the committee seemed in favor of discarding them for the more catchy” pieces of recent days. One of the choice divisions of his library consists of well on to one hundred volumes of various editions of Methodist hymns in use from the earliest | eriod of the history of the church in America—an unique ami interesting collection. For the long period of forty years Dr. Allen has been a trustee of the Maine Wesleyan Seminary at Kent’s Hill: is an overseer of Bowdoin College and a member of the visiting committee of the Maine State College. He is also a mcmlier of the Maine Historical Society and has read many papers before that body, several of which have been published in its collections. At the annual commencement of the State College in 1890, a large ] rtrait in oil of Dr. Allen was presented to the institution by the alumni of the College, with appropriate exercises. An address was delivered by K. F. Dan forth, '77, and a poem read by H. M. Estabrooke, '70. On August 1894, occurred the fiftieth anniversary of the marriage of Dr. and Mrs. Allen, which event was celebrated in a most fitting manner in the Methodist church at the West End, Portland, of which Dr. Allen is now pastor. Dr. Allen was married to Miss Ruth S. Morse. August 2. . 1841. Their children are: Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Brown. Pasadena, California: Miss Isabel Sibley Allen, Portland: Prof. William Albert Allen. Chief Engineer of the Maine Central Railroad. Portland; Prof. Charles Moist Allen. Pratt Institute. Brooklyn, X. V. Dr. Allen can never grow old because his heart is young and he is interested in the good of all young people. Still carrying on the work of the church with much of his old time energy and zeal, he has yet lost none of his solicitude for the noble institution to the foundation of which he gave eight of the best years of his life, and his affection constantly goes out t the men who were once his boys, with an almost filial regard. Interest in all the good and noble things of life, of education, of Christianity, knows no lessening as the years advance, while faith in the future constantly grows brighter and the hope of immortality becomes more and more blessed and secure. 21 The General Alumni Association.

At last their steady perseverance has been rewarded and they have reached that eminence toward which they have been so faithfully struggling for three long, weary years. Yes. Seniors, with the full measure of that delusive quality. “Seniordignity.” As one notes the graceful ease with which they “orate” before the student body in chapel, it is hard to realize that these dignified speakers were once awkward and ignoratu Freshmen. Hut nevertheless, it is an incontestable fact, wonderful as it may seem, and the records prove the fact that three years ago last August they made their debut as students of the Maine State College and mem- bers of the Coburn Corps. Hut what a difference between now and then. Then Freshmen and awkward privates, always worrying for fear they would Ik- late to recitations or drills. Now Seniors and com- missioner! officers, or honored members of the Signal Corps, and ever on the look out for some reason- able (?) excuse for cutting recitations or drill. In the “now” and “then” we have the alpha and omega of the record of 'On's college career. To make this record complete requires only that one should write of the joys, sorrows, trials and tribulations of the intervening years, and make record of the insurmountable obstacles surmounted, and of the various ways and means by which they achieved progress in the paths of learning.” (Classical allusion.) 25 In their Freshman year they did not receive the proper amount of care from their worthy predecessors —the Sophomores—so they were somewhat handicapped at the very outset. Realizing the sad effect of this lack of training, they generously resolved that those who succeeded them to the title and position of Freshmen should never feel this same sad lack. So they endeavored, by all the means at their command, to give them a fair start and while the Faculty “taught the young ideas how to shoot.” they supplied the requisite moisture and assisted greatly in the care of the rooms and In-ds of the Freshmen. They tried to do their duty by all. although often hampered by the larger number of Freshmen. But they did their best and that is all that could be asked. In the spring term of their Sophomore year, in accordance with the time honored custom, they held their Ivy Day exercises and planted their class ivv with due ceremony. The exercises passed off very pleasantly and creditably, and the only thing to Ik.- regretted is that a part of the day’s happenings inspired one member of the class to “woo the gentle Muse. and preserve those records in a poetical effusion widely circulated. (250 copies.) But their “youth and inexperience” accounts for and excuses all. The Junior year passed pleasantly despite the mighty wrestlings with mechanics and calculus and. although some came out of the encounters rather bruised, all these troubles are now fond (?) memories of the past. During this year quite a number of the class made some experiments, in order to determine the relative values of the 00$ and 10$ systems of escaping examinations, and after exhaustive trial (especially of the 10$ system) it was. I think, almost unanimously decided that the 10$ system could be depended upon most surely, to say the least. They took upon themselves also, the thankless task of establishing precedents. They undertook, and carried to a very successful completion, the work of publishing a College Annual, the first of its kind in the history of the institution, and as a further indication of their progressive spirit, the speakers selected to take part in the Junior Inhibition, appeared on the stage in the conventional cap and gown, a rather startling innovation in this quiet place, and perhaps detracted the attention somewhat from the scholarly themes so ably delivered. In the first term of their Senior year an expedition to l’ushaw Lake, for the purpose of making some practical experiments and measurements relating to hydraulics, formed, for the “civil” section of the class, a very pleasant break in the usual college routine. And some practical results were obtained, to judge by the amount of game “said” to have been killed. While in camp there, some of the members of the class, in accordance with their usual progressive spirit undertook to christen the camp where they were, but the 26 Professor in charge cli l not smile on their laudable endeavors, so “Fairy Dale Farm” came out of the woods and returned to its old stand. Thus the time passes pleasantly, taken up with the varied occupations and pleasures of college life. Hut the months fly by all too swiftly and the time is fast approaching when they must go forth, armed with a diploma and military certificate, to do battle with the world. Whether these equipments should prove sufficient in all emergencies, time only can tell. Hut with the expectation of some day seeing their names carved on the pillars of fame, we bid them “Eli avant. 27 Class of ’95 COLORS. Purple and White. CLASS YELL. Maine State! Maine State!

It is hard to realize that in a few short months we will l e dignified Seniors with the good order of Oak Hall upon our shoulders; with the knowledge that we must tell I the Sophomores at least once a week that we will report them if they don't make less noise, and with the responsibility of leading Maine State’s little army on to new victories and to worlds unknown. Of our Freshmen days I need say but little. To speak of some of them would be like probing old wounds, but as a whole they are pleasant memories. Many incidents that at the time brought only mortification and anger, now bring only mirth. On the other hand our Sophomore year, from the time we gathered up our appliances of war and marshalled out the Freshmen to disturb the slumbers of peaceful Orono, until we turned over our battered pails to '97, was one long success. As Sophomores, as the word is generally construed, we were models. Three of us were examples. Promptly at our bidding the Freshmen took up their agricultural implements and removed all verdancy from the diamond, and as promptly we took up our pails and squirt guns and endeavored to remove all verdancy from them. Early in the fall term we met '97 on the ball field, and, following the time honored 30 custom, ate the peanuts at their expense. A few weeks later we met them on the gridiron and again damaged our digestive apparatus at their expense. Late in the fall term occurred what has been appro priatelv called the ” Episode of Green's Landing.” It would be folly for me to attempt to improve on the wonderfully accurate and blood curdling descriptions which appeared in all the enterprising papers. It is sufficient to say that when the strike was declared off, we, with two well known exceptions, returned to our quarters. Inspections went on with military regularity and the earth revolved on its axis once every twenty-four hours just as it had done before. Then peace reigned. The winter vacation came and went. The first few weeks of the spring term passed as quietly as does the lieautiful Stillwater. Some indiscreet Freshmen, deceived by the long period of rest, believed that the Sophs’ spirit was broken and placed two apparently insignificant figures over the dining room door. That morning the papers prophesied local showers in the vicinity of Oak Hall and for once, at least, they predicted correctly. For the remainder of the term the Freshmen were trained to carry themselves as all good Freshmen should. The records of the athletic field day are records of ninety-six’s athletic victories. These plain figures tell much more eloquently than I can how we won ovei the combined strength of the other three classes. Among the many recollec- tions of our Sophomore year, none are pleasanter than those of our Ivy Day. Many of our friends, our sisters and cousins, and our room mates’ sisters and cousins, assembled in the chapel which was tastefully decorated with the implements of our various callings, to listen to our literary efforts and then to see the planting of the vine that is to perpetuate our memory when we are numbered with the alumni. The day ended and the next one began with the usual banquet in Bangor. Our Junior year, now so rapidly drawing to a close, has been one of quiet and hard work. On the whole our career has not been an uneventful one. But even our troubles, which have not been few. have only tended to draw us closer together. Our number has decreased a little, it is true, but we cannot expect great men to linger with us always. Nickodcnius and Lazarus came down from Bible times and sojourned with us for a season; Sockless Jerry Simpson has left the legislative halls to cast his lot with our band to learn the mysteries of levers and cranks: Shvlock is with us. not to carve the flesh of man but the firmer flesh of man's most faithful servant. Even the great George himself has condescended to come down on the farm and learn the art of war. The influence of '96 is strong in all the varied phases of college life. Its guiding hand is felt in athletics and clubs, in society and fraternity life. I have said nothing about the class room work, but there, 31 as in athletics, the records tell their own story. Out civils can survey the largest board piles and longest horse sheds ; our mechanics can dissect the most complicated machine ; our chemists can compound the vilest odors known to science, and our farmers—but I am getting too personal. 32 Class of '96 COLORS.

Write soon. Willie. —and then of subsequent events which came l|, i up in the history of these ambitious youths who embarked upon the K I tempestuous sea of college life for a trip of seventeen weeks. Every one is familiar with the above, but probably only a few know of the contents of those letters which went back to the “plantations from which these individuals who furnish the subject of this obituary came. Perhaps it is just as well if the contents are not divulged, as it is not pleasant for any one to partise tear-stained epistles which tell of defeats in many directions. However, they met with cordial receptions from the usual places, namely, the Y. M. C. A. and from the tantalizing Orono young ladies, who, from the steps of Charlie White’s post office, cast their captivating smiles upon the innocent Freshmen, which smiles, if they could be translated into “ United States. would read. Won’t you be my sweetheart? At this stage of the game no person should Ik laughed at if he is homesick and longs for his home and his mother. Well, they have lived through the temptations that have beset them, and now arc almost through their Sophomore year. It is a great pity that there arc not more of them, as the small number that they can muster in a scrap is sad to look upon, and con- sequently has led them to adopt the motto. I.ive and let live. In the performance of their Sophomoric duties they have labored under great difficulties, the Freshmen outnumbering them three to one. in addition to the strength of the faculty which is in such cases usually found to be quite a drawback. In their two years of college life their hair has become long, cigarette boxes have accumulated in their waste baskets, dust has formed on their psalm books and peanut shells have been swept from their rooms, but these were gilts from other classes, for they have never won 36 any. All these frivolities were the natural results of their former life. Being educated in the rural districts they had never partaken of the gay life which opened before them and so had to live and learn. The greater part of the class of ’97 are pursuing the course in Chemistry and they have used their knowledge of compounding in various ways, to which the blank Freshmen can truly testify. There is hardly a man in the class who cannot steer the H S through the keyhole of a Freshman’s door in a manner which would tend to cause even the Hasin Mill pulp mills to blow up in trying to emit gases which could compare with those that are thrown together by the proteges of “Johnnie” Aubert. '97 boasts of the quality of her speakers at the prize exhibition and well she may. They were rightly praised lor their excellence in this direction and they will no doubt be heard from in legislative halls in the future. We sincerely hope, however, that they will not hail from Canaan or Canton ! Better by far that they confine their oratorical ability to the town meeting than allow such a fate as the above to overtake them. In organizations of small numbers unity is almost always found and in this class this most important factoi is not wanting. They evidently realize that this is one of the elements of success and intend to profit by it. They have two more years at Maine State and it will not be a wrong prediction to say that the members of this class will be prominent comjKrtitors for future honors. 37 Class of ’97 COLORS.

'5)4. there appeared on the campus such an aggregation of verdant youths as never before had been recorded in the annals of Maine State. This was due partly to the modern and popular government recently organized in the College and partly to the increasing popularity with which the people of Maine are coming to regard thtir institution. In numbers ‘98 surpasses any of its predecessors and on this account the Sophomores for a long time were busy instilling those fundamental ptinciples of college etiquette—respect for one’s seniors—which every Freshman must learn sooner or later. As in every other branch, so here, those who learn the slowest and with the most difficulty remember the longest and make the most practical use of their knowledge. Consequently as Sophomores we expect them to be par excellence. There is a doubt whether the Freshmen received all the necessary instruction in this line owing to the Sophomores leaving Oak Hall in order to get more time to study (?) The military drill, though old to some, was new to a much larger number. They made good progress in this line and seemed to derive special enjoyment from the sand-bag minuet and the setting-up quick- steps. judging from the frequency with which they indulged in these pastimes. In the peanut game they 41 broke the college record by beating the Sophomores 17 to 10. The exciting part of the game came a few nights after when the peanuts were delivered to the Freshmen. They were left in the manager's room for a few minutes while he summoned his classmates to the feast. In some unaccountable way the peanuts took flight and the Freshmen are wondering to this day whither they flew. Perhaps they will find out after the next peanut game. On the gridiron '5)8 again proved herself too much for '07, winning the class game by a score of 10 to 0. They also put up some good games against the Foxcroft Academy eleven. Con- siderable musical talent is also found in '98 and it is ho| ed that ere long it will assume definite form. Among its members who have become notorious are “Peanut Webster, Manager of the '98 B. B. Team; Haggerty.” General Manager of the Greatest Bumming Concern ever seen on the Eastern Promenade, and Whiskers. who filled a short engagement the past season in A Midnight Scrape,” under the management of '97. Soon these good little Freshmen will develop into gay Sophomores and only time will tell how much good one year in college has done for them. 42 Class of ’98 COLORS. Sapphire Blue and Old Gold.

'jpHE lxrgimiing of our present military department is found in one of the conditions which the State of Maine accepted with the land grant for the College. This condition was that instruction in military tactics he furnished the students of the institution. Time has amply shown the wisdom of requiring military instruction in our College. The students graduate with a better physique and arc better able to cope with the cares and anxieties of a business life. In 1868, the first body of students entered M. S. C. and in 1 69 a military organization was effected of one company consisting of twenty-two men. They were drilled two hours each Saturday by Capt. H. K. Sellers of Bangor, who thus has the distinction of being the first military instructor at the M. S. C. lie was relieved in 1872 by Capt. James Dean, also of Bangor, who gave the same amount of instruction. During this time the students elected their own company officers and were armed with fifty caliber muzzle- loading rifles which were furnished by the State. In 1 74 Lieut. W. S. Chaplin was ap] ointed Prof, of Military Tactics, also of Modern Languages and Mechanics. He was the first military instructor who was a member of the faculty. At this time the students numbered 121 and were organized into a battalion of two companies. The drilling consisted of setting up exercises and practice in marching for fifteen minutes daily, before breakfast, and also a weekly drill of one hour. There was no instruction in the Manual of Arms, as the Army Tactics provided for a different arm than that then in use at the College. In 1 7.' . the cadet officers were appointed by the faculty. This arrangement has been in vogue up to the present time. Ivarly in the spring of 1876, the State furnished the military department one hundred breech loading muskets with the proper equipments, thus making a great addition to the military equip- 66 raent, and. for purposes of instruction, a great improvement. It was at this time that the uniform of the cadets was changed to the blue yacht cloth without brass buttons and the wearing of it was made compul- sory at all drills and other military exercises. This greatly improved the appearance of the battalion at drill. In September, 1 7( , the name of ‘‘Coburn Corps of Cadets” was given to the military organization at the College. This name has been retained ever since. During this year the cadets went to Fryeburg, Me., to attend a meeting of the Hoard of Agriculture. They remained two days and drilled each day. Prof. Chaplin resigned his position Jan. 1. 1 77, and was succeeded by Prof. Francis I,. Hills. A course of Military Science was instituted by Prof. Hills, at the satisfactory completion of which special military diplomas were given. He made many plans for the improvement of the military department, but as lie resigned in 187 . he was unable to put them in practice to any great extent. Prof. 11 ills was suc- ceeded by A. K. Rogers, who is at present a professor at the College. The distinguishing features of his work in this department were the giving of weekly lectures on International Law to the Seniors and also in having weekly recitations in Military Tactics by the Juniors. It is evident that these lectures and recita- tions were of great aid and benefit to the students. In 1 0. the cadets attended the State Fair at Lewis- ton under charge of Prof. Rogers. The first artillery company was organized of Seniors in 1 1 and was in operation for one year, but owing to the small number of men the battery organization was impossible. Instruction in handling the field pieces, however, continued to lie given for about two years. Prof. Rogers was relieved of his military duties in August. 1 82. by Lieut. K. W. Howe. 17th Y. S. Infantry, the first officer detailed by the Secretary of War as professor of Military Science and Tactics. The cadet uniform was now changed to cadet gray, blouse, trousers and cap. Target practice at one hundred yards was also required of the Seniors and Juniors. The chief improvement made by Lieut. Howe was the inauguration of the system of inspection of cadet rooms by the military professor. A set of dormitory regulations which were taken largely from the West Point blue l ook. was also published by him. These were the same regulations, with a few exceptions, as those now in force. In 1 3, he had the two field pieces returned to the State Arsenal at Bangor, as the students used them for other purposes than those of instruction. Owing to the decreased number of students the military organization consisted at this time of one company. Lieut. Howe was succeeded in 1885 by Lieut. C. L. Phillips, 4th Y. S. Artillery, who restored the battalion organization of two companies and also instituted competitive drills. 67 One drill of marked interest at this time was the competitive drill with the Nealley Rifles of Lewiston. It was won by the Coburn Cadets, the score being 193 to 192 out of a possible 200 j oints. The Cadets had instruction in cantp duties in 188G at Fort Knox on the Penobscot River. These encampments were undoubtedly very instructive, and. with a few exceptions, have been continued up to the present time. Our present rifle range was laid out by Lieut. Phillips. About this time a band of twenty pieces was organized. The uniform was again changed to a cap and blouse of dark blue with State of Maine buttons and a gold braid clover leaf on the cuff. The chevrons and shoulder straps were of red and gold. This uniform has remained in vogue to the present time with exception of the trousers which were gray ; they were changed to the present blue in 1388. Lieut. Phillips was relieved in 1888 by Lieut. K. li. Hatch, 18th V. S. Infantry. Lieut. Hatch first gave lectures to the Seniors on distinctly military subjects. The first inspection of cadets by an officer detailed for this purpose by the War Department took place during the detail of Lieut. Hatch. It occurred on Oct. 22. 1888. This year the cadets went to the Fair Grounds at Bangor for their encampment. In 1890, the band which had been organized by Lieut. Phillips was replaced by a drum corps of three fifes and three drums. Lieut. Hatch was relieved in 1891 by Lieut. M. L. Ilersey, formerly 2nd Lieut. 9th I . S. Infantry; now 1st Lieut. 12th U. S. Infantry. Lieut. Horsey added to the uniform white duck trousers to be worn at dress parade and ceremonies, thus greatly improving the looks of the battalion. In September. 1891. the cadets went to Fort Knox for their encampment which was as usual profitable and instructive in a marked degree. The annual encampments since then have been as follows: 1892, Castine, Me., at old Fort George; 1893, Searspoit, Me.; 1894, Portland, Me., on the Kastern Promenade. One week was spent at each encampment. Lieut. Ilersey also instituted the system of | olicc inspection of barracks at 7.30 A. i. daily by cadet officers. This system has been of great aid in enforcing the dormitory regulations. In September, 1892. a signal corps was organized consisting of Senior privates and all others who were excused from drill on the surgeon’s certificate of disability. In March, 1893, a band of nineteen pieces was organized and has done excellent work, adding much to the pleasure of life in camp and to the interest in parade and ceremonies. Among other innovations of Prof. Hersey’s is the physical training work among the Freshmen. This occupies one-half hour every morning during that part of the year admitting of out door work. That it has been an excellent thing, measurements taken before and after the work have abundantly shown. 68 In 1804, owing to the large entering class, the battalion was divided into three companies, thus enabling a larger number of the students to receive instruction in the duties of officers. With the pros- pect of larger entering classes, of cavalry, artillery and, we hope, a gymnasium and drill hall, the future of our military department seems especially bright. Lieut. Hersey's detail expires in June, 1805. IIis successor is not at present known. In Lieut. Hersey the corps has had an instructor who has been untiring in his efforts to bring military and physical education to the notice which it so richly deserves, and his loss will Ik severely felt in the military depart- ment of our College. He has undoubtedly, done more than any other instructor in giving the Coburn Corps of Cadets the high standard of excellence which they now possess. Thk Prism heartily unites with all in wishes for the future welfare of the military department of our College, and expresses the hope that it will continue to improve in the future, as greatly as it has in the past. 69 Mark L.

IT was held in Portland during the week beginning October 5, and ending October 12, 1894. It was ' quite a distance to take one hundred and seventy-five youths on a week’s outing, but the Cadets still live to tell the story of Portland inside out. Never before in the history of the institution had the authorities dared to seriously consider such a proposition as allowing the Cadets to hold their annual encampment in a town of large proportions and the results of the experiment were eagerly watched by every one. especially the Faculty. The encampment is an event which is looked forward to by the students with a more or less degree of pleasure. Perhaps there are a few who dislike to partake in the arduous duties of military life for a whole week, as it is not all play. Oh no! However, the greater part of the fellows are ready to give themselves up to military discipline for this short time. It is a peculiar coincidence that among the whole Corps of Cadets the two extreme classes, the Seniors and Freshmen, are the most anxious for this annual military fete to take place. Usually for a whole month before the encampment occurs, the Freshies are worked up to the highest pitch of excitement by weird talcs of former expeditions related to them by upper-classmen, and therefore they are eager to don their new uniforms and shoulder their rifles. On the other hand the Seniors get a chance to air their dignity and authority to a degree which is not ordinarily acquired. They long for the time when they can command and be obeyed. In camp the commissioned officer is in his glory. He has just received his appointment as Major. Captain. Lieutenant, or perhaps Chief Signal Officer, and his is a position to be envied. For example, there was our 1st Lieutenant and Quartermaster As he rode up Congress street in a barouche with the aldermen, you might have thought he was mayor 72 of the city—but he wasn’t. It was those whiskers that gave him away. They were beautiful to look upon, but it must have been embarrassing to be taken for somebody. Some people thought that he was our instructor, but the latter's beard had disappeared with the coining of early spring. The site of the camp was the Eastern Promenade, overlooking the large expanse of water on three sides, whence came soft breezes to fan one's heated brow, caused perhaps by the fatigue of a long drill, or perhaps by the excitement of running guard under the cover of darkness. Many’s the time and oft did “ Boy ’ Manter and “ Bill Nye sit in the doorway of their tent and inhale these same gentle breezes after a hot sprint across “ No. 4. The situation of Camp Selden Connor was in some respects an ideal one. The scenery could not be excelled, the surroundings were fair, and the facilities everything. The weather during the week, with slight exceptions, was all that could be desired. How well do all remember the damp, chilly mornings, when the melodious sounds of Haggerty’s” bugle echoed throughout the campas he played at the familiar call, I can't get 'em up,” with variations. Many of the visitors in camp who were lovers of music, sharply criticised the tone of this young Freshman's bugle calls, but had they known that he had recently swallowed a bale of hay they would have no doubt refrained from these comments. Speaking of music, brings to mind the gilt-edged aggregation that occupied the lower row of tents facing the avenue, who discoursed sweet music on all occasions. This was the first team of the kind that Maine State had ever put into the field, and although no regular contests of endurance were arranged with the other colleges, without doubt our own delegation, with proper gymnasium facilities, could head the list• On the whole, the band did exceedingly well and although de Molay” was the worst sufferer of all their selections, there is consolation in knowing that a small repertoire well played, is preferable to a larger one indifferently executed. Then there was the Signal Corps, which is composed of members of the battalion who are in any way indisposed. Their work during camp was by no means easy, as is shown by the number who deserted to the companies. One new feature of the encampment and one which everyone hopes will be omitted hereafter, was the long roll. For the benefit of those who are not familiar with this formation, it might Ik- well to say that it is made in the dead of night when all should be sleeping. A prolonged roll of the drums is the signal for everyone to take their places and respond to their names when called, and be ready to suppress 73 an attack. In this case, however, it was characterized simply by general gnashing of teeth and tearing of chevrons. Much practical knowledge can be obtained on these annual trips. Each year there is an abundance of implements taken along with which to dig intreuchuients and throw up breastworks, but until this year nothing of much importance has been done in this line. As an illustration of what the Cadets could do in an emergency, one poor Freshman was set at work making excavations! The drilling of the battalion was of a high order, and we were highly complimented in that direction. One of our Seniors, however, was a victim of ” Upton Tactics,” but he received no reprimand other than his own punishment. On the way back to Orono, a few very pleasant hours were spent at Watcrvillc. where we sat down to a bounteous repast and looked over the buildings of Colby University. It was intended that a battalion drill should take place on the campus, but you can imagine our great disappointment in only half complet- ing the movements owing to the departure of our train ! ;4 M. 5.

In this sport the need ol a suitable gymnasium has been felt very forcibly. Even if we had the tread-mill so kindly suggested by one of the Augusta Solons, it would not be so bad, but when the beautiful snow conies down from heaven and covers the potato field with a spotless robe, and the rocks in the back pasture are buried too deep to Ik- moved, then the base ball enthusiasm wanes and the muscles of the athlete become flabby from want of exercise. But in spite of all these drawbacks, base ball has lived and prospered, although at times it has been in a very deep sleep. The season of '9:5 was only a partial awakening from one of these slumbers. The season of 1)4 was better and at times brought back to us the balmy days of Small and Rogers when we won the pennant. As it was. we can comfort ourselves with the thought thal we would have won if certain things had only been different. If we had only had money enough to give the team a rest between league games: if we had only had a second pitcher as good as the first: if we could have only stopped when we led the league. But let us stop thinking what might have been and consider what will Ik. The season of ’95 opens with the loss of only a few players and the entrance ol a number of good ones; with a good coach and a new field; with a good management and a strong financial backing. The team will be composed of men who are old in the game and consequently have lost the nervousness of new men. The candidates arc numerous and each man will have to work for his position. The players are so divided among the classes that only two or three will graduate each year. On the whole the prospects of base ball at Maine State were never brighter; so then let us work and hope for another pennant to hang in the new gymnasium that is sure to come in the near future. 78 Games Played Maine State vs. M.

Foot Ball Explanation. am i 3 UK Maine State foot ball enthusiasts have had many drawbacks with which to contend. When foot ball was started in the fall of IS‘12. no one had more than an imperfect knowledge of the game. Foot ball is a game of science. Muscle and beef are not. as many suppose, the only requirements. A foot ball player must lx. agile and strong, but above all must have a cool head and sound judgment. If weight can be added to these, so much the better. We have had in the past plenty of raw material but the skilled labor has been wanting. In the last few years foot ball has advanced in a marked degree in the high schools of the State and consequently the entering classes have contained many skilled players. In the last season very little was done in foot ball. Nevertheless the work of the practice eleven and the '5)7 and ' JK teams showed that we have sufficient material and material of the proper sort to place foot ball firmly on its feet at Maine .State. The remarkable line work of the Freshmen in their games with heavier teams leaves no question as to the strength of the varsity line of ISO.1). In the coming season every effort will Ik made to make foot ball a success. We have already some very good backs and more are expected in the class of ’! !). The new athletic field will provide one of the lx.-st grounds in the State and the new electric road will bring the spectators to its very gates. So then let every one, faculty and students, athletes and pluggers, get into the blocking and prepare for a long and successful run. 81 Class Foot Ball Teams 97. Tvi.ki: II. I i it i Manager.

Only a slight ripple of the- strong current reached us from out sister colleges. It cannot be said that this was due to lack of material, when we consider the records made by some of our men. who. for various reasons, have gone to other institutions where the facilities for athletic training are superior to ours. We cannot truthfully sav that we have no .gymnasium, for we are the proud owners of a set of parallel bars, as many as three pairs of Indian clubs and a roof large enough to cover them all at once. With the aid of this extensive apparatus, the athletic association decided to hold a field meet in the spring of 1894. The records show, to some extent, how much of a success it was. There are, however, many success- ful things about it which the records do not show. They do not show the interest which this first meet awakened in track and field athletics at M. S. C. They do not show the difficulties under which the committee labored in carrying out an idea wholly new. Among the many things which they do bring forward, is the painful lack of proper coaching and training and the overwork of a few. Both of these evils will probably Ik eliminated by the advent of many new students, fresh from good high school training and with their pockets full of the necessary cash which is. at present, most conspicuous by its absence. At the present time, the prospects for the meet of ISO.' are very promising. Arrangements are being made to secure a good coach and also for an intercollegiate meet. We should not be discouraged because our conditions are unfavorable, but rather work the harder that our record at this meet may be a standard for future classes. 84 Field Day Records Xo. Event.

Heywood, ’96. Tennis Prospects. T may be truthfully said that Maine State has had better success in tennis than in any other sport which she has entered. The Intercollegiate Tennis Association, consisting of Bowdoin, Bates, Colby and Maine State, was formed in 1892 and we have been well represented in the tournaments r held each year by this association. While we have never won any prizes until last season, we i have been no mean opponents, and our past record is one of which we should not Ik ashamed. The courts on the campus are in fair condition and we expect that when the new athletic field is completed they will lie placed all together. We naturally feel very much interested in the cup for second place in singles, as it was offered by Mr. Southard, an alumnus. It has been in our possession during the past year and we hope that it will remain here. Iii former years our representatives have lacked sadly in practice, occasioned partly by the want of good opponents with whom to practice, and partly owing to the almost certainty they had of no one beating them. These difficulties will be overcome, however, by the advent of more tennis material, which will surely show itself in classes of so large numbers, and will consequently tend to make the old players hustle to keep their places in the tournament. 87 Winners of College Tournament, 1894.

The biographical sketch of Dr. Allen was written l v Hon. S. I,. Boardmau of Augusta. The encampment pictures were taken by Mr. D. V. Colby. The printing was done by the firm of C. H. Glass Co. of Bangor. Maine, and to them we owe the origination of many ideas. The heliotypes were made by The Heliotype Printing Co.. Boston. To the above we express our most sincere thanks. Prominent among those who have lent us assistance in the work are the editors of the first volume. The experience which they gained has been a source of great help t us. as well the excellent advice which they willingly gave. The memlKrrs of the class have loyally sustained us in the undertaking, and especial credit is due to Mr. F. L. Marston for his history of •The Military Department and to Mr. K. P. Pride for his drawings. Lastly, our advertisers. Fortunately they are many, for the financial success of the book is almost entirely dependent upon their support. We hope that their investments will not prove unprofitable, and if the importance of patronizing those who patronize us could l e forcibly impressed upon the minds of the students the success of all our future College publications would be assured. 123 Till- EDITORS.

ANOTHER DECISION m IN FAVOR OF HILDRETH’S ’S VELVET MOLASSES CA NDg ALL OTHERS ARE IMITATIONS. In the supreme court in tin- test case of HILDKKTIl against the U. S. MeDouald Candy Co., of Huston. The Supreme Court of Massachusetts says : In the case of IIILDRKTII against the l . S. McDonald Compauy of Huston for selling; molasses candy in a pack- age similar to that of the ‘•VKLYET . hut with the word “McDonald printed thereon in red ink. Judge Morton grants an injunction to restrain the defendant, and in giving his decision says : I think that the printing ul the word in red materially increases the resem- blance (Im-i ween the packages of plaintiff and defendant . It seems to me that the defendant cannot justify printing the word in red across the middle of a wrapjH-r, w hether it is his own name or some other name or word, which taken in connection with the size and shape of the piece of candy, style of wrapper and kind of wrapper, causes the defendant’s candy to resemble the plaintitl's and render it liable to deceive the public : and it i that liability ou the part of the public to be deceived into buying the defendant's goods for the goods of the plaintiff’, which the plaintiff has a right to he protected against, whether the word printed in ml is the defendant's name or some other name or word. I think that the printing in led upon the middle and ends « f a yellow waxed inanila paper was original with the plaintiff. “I think that the plaintiff is entitled to an injunction restraining the defendant from printing in ted upon yellow wrappers used iu putting up molasses candy in the size, shape and manner in w hich the plaint ill's molasses candy i' put up. his ow u name or any other name or won! so as thereby to cause the defendant’s candy to resemble in its dress and appearance the candy of the plaintiff.” The above was made a test case as to the right of HILDRETH to the exclusive use of Ids w rapper, package and printing thereon, and was decided after a full trial conducted by eminent counsel on both sides. It is tin third decision in said court for Mr. Hildreth, protecting his trade mark and the dross of bis goods on the market. Mr. Hildreth pursues all infringers, not only to protect his rights, but also to protect Ins customers and the retail dealers from unfair competition with inferior goods at a lower price, and to protect the public at large from buying under false pretenses, goods offered as and for bis, or, as the same as bis, and thereby depriving pur- chasers from enjoying bis pure, delicious and unequalled “YELYET” MOLASSES i ANI)Y.

The Scientific Course is the basis course, from which the technical courses diverge. It is designed for those who seek the College for general culture and training. It differs from the usual college course by omitting Latin and Greek, and substituting French, German, English and scientific studies. The Agricultural Course is designed for those who wish to become farmers, teachers or in- vestigators in agricultural science, or editors of agricultural papers. In this course, agriculture is treated as a branch of technology. For those who wish practical rather than scientific training in agriculture, shorter courses are provided. The Civil Engineering Course is designed for those who wish to become surveyors, railroad, highway, hydraulic, bridge, or sanitary, engineers. The Mechanical Engineering Course is designed for those who wish to become managers of manufacturing plants, or general mechanical engineers. The Electrical Engineering Course is designed for those who wish to fit themselves for any line of practical work in electricity. m The Chemical Course is designed for those who wish to become professional analysts, teachers of chemistry, or managers of industries in which an extensive knowledge of chemistry is needed. '1 he Pharmacy Course is designed for those who wish to prepare themselves for the practice of pharmacy, and at the same time obtain a broad general training. The Preparatory Medical Course is designed for those who propose to take up the study of medicine after graduation and wish to so shape their college work as to furnish the best preparation. The Short Courses are as follows: The Pharmacy Course, of two years, is designed for those who wish to obtain a practical training in pharmacy in the shortest time. The Electrical Engineering Course, of two years, is designed for those who have time for only the practical training in electricity. The Course in Library Economy, of one year, is designed for those who wish instruction in the care and management of libraries. The Agricultural Courses, of one and two years, are designed for farmers. The Training Courses, of six weeks each, in General Agriculture, in Dairying, and in Horti- culture, are planned for farmers. The Farm Course is a scries of lectures, on agricultural topics, not less than five in number, to be delivered at any place in the State where a class may be organized under an agreement to attend regularly and pay the expenses. The College Year is divided into two sessions beginning on the first Wednesday in February and September. Rooms and Tuition are free. For catalogues and further information, address A. W.
