I 24 v v 'A A Senior. .. ... History IT was in September '99 that we first made our appearance on the campus, and that very night we proved to those around us that we had come to stay, and from that moment we began to make a history that has extended over parts of two centuries. How well we all remember that night when we first gave three times three for 1903; how with “Park” Merryficld at our head we rushed the Sophomores all over the yard, and how the Juniors patted us on the back until our heads swelled a great deal above their normal size. The “night shirt parade” that year was considered by all to be a great success, but for this we alone are responsible, for if we hadn’t been there, there probably would not have been any parade. Although the upper classmen said we were the freshest class they had ever seen, this did not bother us and we continued to win all scraps that came our way. Late in the fall “Proxy,” thinking that the Sophomores were getting a little the worst of it, told us if we didn’t mend our ways he would have to send some of them home out of harm’s way and so, being good natured, we did as he said; there was no more hazing and we did as we liked the rest of the year. Even Everett, Smith, and Rogers had girls. “Brad” wet “Marm” Spearen and Conner began to go to Old Town to church. By June we had learned from the upper classmen and by ex- perience, that “Janie” had an eagle eye for “cribbers;” to laugh at “Honey’s” jokes (?) meant ninety in the finals; and that notifications were something more than mere form. All of these things were of much use to us and helped us out of many difficult places. So a year passed and we were “Sophs; many of us came back early that year, partly to look out for Freshman and partly to be here at the early session. It was during this year that The Hornet made its appearance, and with this on one side and Prex on the other there was not a great deal heard from us in the way of hazing. Of course we had the parade and the usual scraps of which the Peanut and Ivy night scraps were the fiercest that have ever taken place on the Campus, and it is need- less to say that in both of these 1903 was always on top at the finish. As Sophomores we had the first Sophomore Hop, got out the first Sophomore calendar, taught Siff to speak English, and learned to melt ice for “Jimmie. Many of our class decided that they were not cut out for engineers and so changed their courses to the hard Scientific or Left handed, prefering rather to cast their lots with “Allie and “Prex Fernald than with “Grinnie and “Bab. Fred Collins and Dorticos began to go to Bangor once a week, Conner changed churches, Douglass raised a mustache, and Coffin began to smoke. Thus another year had passed, and when we met again we were Juniors; but there were many of our members who, struggling under the influences of fxeiv had thought it better to stay out at least one year as they had had pretty good jobs offered them. This year we met the smiling faces of “Grinnie, “Allie and “Johnnie, and assumed the dignity of upper classmen while most of our time was spent in trying to start scraps between the two lower classes in which in one or two cases we were successful. But every class has its misfortune and we had ours in a very peculiar way. “Freak Freeman came back to college and as no other class would have him, we had to take him and to use a slang expression, the class has “never been the same since.” It is with regret that we have to state here a few facts that we can’t very well omit as some of the class would feel slighted. Fred and “Dorty” went to Bangor almost every night, Conner still stuck to Old Town although he seemed a little discontented, “Bill Cole had 26 been with every girl in Orono and bad begun over again. Si Small fell in love, and poor Crabtree slept right through the whole year. Now we are Seniors and many of us feel the importance of our position. Although the Senior year is generally considered by every- body to be a snap, yet the afternoons in the drawing room and labora- tory seem pretty long, and even Ernest Porter and Chandler swear under their breath and quit work the minute “Boardy steps out for a minute. “Rod'’ Mullancy can juggle rivets. Midge Dyer is so dis- gusted with it all that he will only shave once a week, and “Muldoon” and Hartford are working for a position on the faculty. We have all had our troubles and now Conner is having his. He changed churches again and now he can change girls without even knowing it. Our college course is nearly completed and in a few more weeks we will have received (?) our sheepskins and be turned out into the cold, cold world. But where ever we go and what ever we do may we always love and respect old Maine “as we do now.” 27 SENIOR CLASS, 1903 OFFICERS. President, Paul D. Simpson. First Vice President, Arthur R. Towse.

History IT is not our intention to give in this history a complete list of events, but simply to add the things which have occurred since the last volume went to press. We are very modest; but for fear, however, that some incredulous person might accuse us of cow- ardice we will give a brief review of our previous volume. Unlike other classes we are going to tell the truth and nothing but the truth. This will not be as difficult for us as it would be for some other classes because we have won all our contests. I do not know whether we were fresh or not but “Captain Bach” graduated, firmly believing that we were the freshest class that ever entered the University of Maine. When I say that we won all scraps, during our first two years, I am not exaggerating in the least. Sometimes the decision was not in our favor but our gentlemanly and generous conduct deserved all victories, which we, therefore, claim. After the peanut scrap we gave the Sophomores the empty bag, but we have not received an ac- knowledgement of the fact as yet. Near the close of the Spring term, last year, we had one final scrap with the Freshman. To say that we were victorious in that bloody battle on Proxy’s lawn would be to express it mildly. One of the Seniors said afterwards that the noise made by the Freshman bathing in “Chipper’s frog pond reminded him of a hailstorm at sea. Right here we will state that “stacking” the beds in Oak Hall was something we did not do that night. 35 Several things happened last year which were not included in our history and which we will insert here. To begin with, “Pete” Bean fell in love and it soon became so serious that he wanted to take Astronomy in order that he might have an excuse for staying out all night. It looked for a short time as if Bradford had joined the ranks of the “Co-ed chasers”; but a freshman cut him out and “Brad was obliged to leave college for the remainder of the year. This year we came back undecided whether to do or die. The question remained undecided until the January finals when Mechanics decided for the most of us. We are not wholly to blame, however, that when we returned to college last fall the crowd of Freshmen caused many to think that the place had been given a coat of green paint. Even the “Hen Coop” looked green. It was obviously (with apologies to “Jimmie”) our duty to educate them. Of course we could not do this directly, but it took so much of our time to urge on the reluctant and backward Sophomores that many of us have not parted with our text books in Calculus. We are very sorry to relate that this year some of our members have wandered from the straight and narrow path which leads to Phi Kappa Phi and have taken the broad path which leads,—but perhaps a recognisance of their misdeeds will bring about a reform. Let us hope so. “P. I. Chase followed the trail of a Senior as far as Bangor. Here he became mixed up and finally landed in Brewer. He has been mixed up in Brewer ever since. “Jim” Sawyer was elected business manager of the Prism, and puts in a lot of time with his typewriter. “Jim” also tried to assume the duties of godfather to the Junior Prom. His efforts were not appreciated by the class, however, so he is now sticking to business. “Richie” has left Oak Hall and moved to Basin Mills. It is rumored that he has taken the lease of a place down there and will spend next summer on the farm. In conclusion we will say that we have learned a lot since coming to college. We have become attached to the various courses and it is with sincere regret that we watch the close of our Junior year. Let us 36 hope that next year the ties will grow stronger and stronger and that on the final day we may sing with all our hearts the words of the good old College hymn, “God ever keep thee in his hand, May peace within thy borders reign, And all tliy children loyal stand To guard thee well, Oh; Dear loved Maine.” 37 JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS President, Thomas C.

History AND it came to pass on the following year, which was the year nineteen hundred and two, that a great multitude of people came again unto Orono, which is in the land of Maine. And there was much rejoicing among the people, for lo, on every hand sprouted fourth greenness, and the land was overflowing with milk and Jioncy. Now those who journeyed for the second time into the land, who were called Sophomores, counseled together with many of the Wise Men and Klders. And they spake among themselves saying, Where- fore do we rejoice, for among us are many of the tribe of Reuben, yea, many who know not the Light of Wisdom. Verily unto these must the Truth be taught. And it came to pass on the second day as all the people came to- gether for worship that there was much doing at the entrance of the Tabernacle. And behold, the Sophomores brought forth a wooden horse and placed it before the gates of the Temple, so that those of the tribe of Reuben, even they that knew not Wisdom, were made to jump over it in order that they should become cleansed. Then appeared among them, Prex the Great, a mighty (?) man among the people, and raised his voice saying, Persecute ye not the little ones. But the people heeded him not. And as they of the tribe of Reuben, who were called Freshmen, jumped over the horse their raiment was cleansed even until dust issued from the seats of their trousers. And the number of half-inch slabs that were broken was three score and six. Now there is an ancient custom among these people that those who come each year as strangers into the land, must clothe themselves 59 in white raiment and walk for a short time at night with older and wiser men. And it came to pass as they were thus walking that a certain one of the Freshmen, called Crowell, raised his voice in loud shouting from his window, even as an ass brayeth. And behold, the Sophomores were exceeding wroth and brought him forth from his house and cast him straightway into the river which is called the Stillwater. Now on the same night about the tenth hour, one Worcester, a Freshman, was called upon to expound the doctrines of his tribe. Hut lo, as he looked upon the assembled multitude his wisdom (?) tied and his tongue clave to the roof of his mouth. And the Wise Men and Elders counseled together, and many of them believed that the Freshman was possessed of an evil spirit, insomuch that he should be exorcised by baptism ; and forthwith he was immersed in the Holy river and came forth fresh, pure and repentant. In those days it came to pass that the hosts of the Sophomores went out to do battle against the hosts of the tribe of Reuben. And they girded up their loins and went forth joyfully with song and shout, and they did contend valiantly, so that the Freshmen were vanquished and suffered their flag to be taken away. Hut the Freshmen were of stout heart and they were still not satisfied. And they came out to play base ball against the Sophomores saying, Hehold, if we prevail there shall be a great feast among us, even a feast of peanuts. Hut verily, the arm of Gussie was like unto the arm of Samson, so that the Freshmen were again vanquished, even unto the tune of five to four. And the peanuts were on them. Now when the mighty chief, Locke, heard these things he took great indignation and mocked the Sophomores. And he spake before his brethren saying, What do these feeble Sophomores? Would they make an end in a day? And he said unto this one, Paint ye the stand pipe; and unto that one, Huy ye the peanuts which we owe the Sophomores that we may render unto them that which is due them, even to the last peanut. Accordingly was the stand pipe painted (???) and messengers were sent unto the city which is called Han-g-or, where they did buy peanuts, and they did pay for them three shekels of silver. And they said unto 60 the merchant, Bring them to us at the place called Orono. And he answered and said, Yea verily. Now it came to pass that some among the Sophomores heard of these things, and they did hasten straightway to Ban-g-or, to the merchant. And they said unto him, Give Thou to us the peanuts which our brother bought of Thee; for we would take them unto him. And the merchant answered them saying, Yea verily. And they straightway made haste and brought the peanuts to Orono even unto the place where the whole tribe of the Sophomores was assembled. And there was a great feast and much rejoicing, and many of the shells of the peanuts were cast about, even among the pots and kettles of Dr. Boggs. And it came to pass when the Freshmen heard of these things that they were exceeding wroth and spake among themselves saying, The enemy hath deceived us. Let us go therefore and purchase other peanuts that we may force them to do battle. And when it was done as they had said the tribes came out at night to do battle against each other. And lo, they contended valiantly by moonlight, to the great distruction of Chipper’s scrubs. And while the battle raged the peanuts fell into the hands of two of the Elders, “Shine” and “Steve,” and were divided among the Wise Men and Scribes. Now in the stress of the battle the Freshmen were confounded, insomuch that they smote one another. And certain ones among them wandered about the edges of the multitude, even like unto lost sheep. And behold, as their bleatings and murmurings reached the ears of the Sophomores it was thought that they were possessed of evil spirits. And they were straightway immersed. And the number of those who tasted the water of Chipper’s frog- pond was twenty and five. And there was much hunting for the great Locke, but he was nowhere to be found. Verily it was said that he had become so inflated with his own gas that he had ascended into the air to take his place among the other stars. Now after these things peace prevailed among the people for many days. And the Sophomores spake unto the Freshmen saying, Choose ye strong men from among thy host, even eleven of the 61 strongest among you, that they may come forth to meet our strong men at the game called foot ball. And the Freshmen did as they were told. And it came to pass that a great game was played, and the Freshmen could not stand fast, but were swept away like chaff before the wind; and the strong men of the Sophomores prevailed. Yea, even to the extent of twenty-eight points did the score multiply and increase. And verily be it known that the Freshmen could not even “butt in.” Now after these things the Sophomores counseled together and spake among themselves saying, Verily the Reubenites are like unto the children of Israel, for they wander about without guidance, there- fore shall we give unto them commandments even as the Lord did unto Moses. And the commandments were written and placed in the high places of the people so that all the Freshmen might read. And behold, many of them read and heeded, and many there were who scoffed and would not heed. But lo, it were better for those that heeded not, that a rope were tied about their heels and they were lowered gently into the Stillwater. Much hath been done and much remaineth to be done, and as it hath been in the past, so shall it be in the future. For verily it is written, Whoso rebeleth against thy commandments, he shall be given over to thy merciful judgements, and thou shalt walk upon his high places.

History IN the Fall term of the year 1903, there suddenly appeared one of the largest aggregations of verdant material with which the Uni- versity of Maine has ever been blessed. Nor was this, as one might conceive, the result of experimental work by the Agricultural Depart- ment; but rather gifts, from nearly every section of the State, of prom- ising young men sent there for the purpose of broadening their intellectual capacities. Little did we realize the requirements of a college education such as class games, peanut scraps, flag rushes, etc. with which, although of the greatest importance, we had never become acquainted through the various college publications placed at our disposal. ‘Tis needless to say that we were given an introduction to Freshman insignificance, by the Sophomores on our first apperance at Chapel. In order to gain admittance into this tabernacle we were forced to run a gauntlet be- tween two lines of these stately, immodest, unassuming young gentle- men each of whom was armed with a paddle especially adapted, as we were told, for what ailed us. It goes without saying, that these afore- said paddles were wielded with a will, and there was not one of us but whom, when he sat down in Chapel, was gently reminded of the ordeal through which he had just passed. It chanced, at this time, that a certain new member of the lesser Faculty was mistaken for one of our number and received, at the hands of an ambitious Sophomore, the same “application” which was accorded us. And Grinnie smiled. After this, our ambitions and aspirations knew no bounds, or, as Janie would say, “approached infinity as a limit”; but later, by an inversion, or rather immersion, in Chipper’s frog-pond, were reduced 69 approximately to zero. Perhaps, however, the events leading up to such a transformation would command more than a passing remark. Little did we realize, on the morning of our Hag rush and base ball game with the Sophomores, that at noon we should have met defeat on every hand and have been impoverished to the extent of three bushels of peanuts. Nevertheless, these defeats were not without their ad- vantages, for it has been said, “The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach,” and these peanuts surely reached their mark. The results were so satisfactory that we decided to present the Seniors and Juniors with the same amount and seriously considered giving the Faculty a double dose. But we were discouraged in this idea by the lady-like conduct of our president in delivering the peanuts to the upper classmen. While we were gathered around, anxiously awaiting the delivery of the peanuts to the upper classmen, these latter gentle- men helped themselves. One of the Seniors incidentally threw a handful into the crowd, causing a friendly scrap to ensue in which our friends, the treacherous Sophomores, introduced us to the purifying waters of Chipper's frog-pond in which our class spirit dissolved leaving only a few personalities. Of the foot ball game we have nothing to say. We were fortunate in having a man long enough to paint the stand- pipe, but unfortunately his foot slipped in the undertaking; still another was unable to cover up his tracks while “learning wisdom from the bees.” One member of our class, because of a visit to the chicken coops, was sent home for thirty days; but when A—x-d-r the Great visits the Men Coop he is received with open arms. Our smallest member tried to introduce the Beverly Evening limes into the reading room, and for this act was nearly expelled. One of our Rockland members, with female aspirations, had his hopes suddenly dashed to the ground by a rude and chunky Sophomore. Although we have not won a victory in athletics, we hope, in the future, to redeem ourselves and win a reputation which will do justice to old Maine, believing that our past misfortunes have been the results of mistakes rather than inabilities. 70 FRESHMAN CLASS OFFICERS President, Adelbert V.

OF THE ... University of Maine The College of Arts and Sciences comprises five courses: the Classical Course, the Latin Scientific Course, the Scientific Course, the Chemical Course, and the Preparatory Medical Course. The purpose of this college is to give a liberal education upon which the technical courses may rest, and to afford an opportunity for specialization in language, mathematics, philosophy and science. Besides requiring a certain amount of general training in those branches which should underlie every good education, under recent laws of the University a specialization is required as well, thereby strengthen- ing those courses which are weak in colleges in general. The Classical Course, as in the curriculum of all colleges, affords an extensive study of the ancient languages. Besides Greek and Latin the student is expected to take at least one year of English, French, German, mathematics, chemistry or physics, psychology and political economy. With the growing and healthy idea prevailing throughout the 80 country within the last few years, that not only the literary and historical side of the classical countries should be presented, but the social and aesthetic side as well, equipments have been made in the way of large and growing collections of pictures, photographs and lantern slides. These are equal to any college in the State and add greatly to the attractiveness of the study of the Classics, previously so dry and lifeless. Because of the University having been formerly a purely technical and scientific school, the classical department has not so large an attendance as some of the other departments, but the increase is marked each year and promises in a short time to be one of the leading courses of the University. The Classical Course is under the direct supervision of “Karl” and “Paddy.” With these gentlemen we may take a nice breezy booze with Horace beneath the wide spreading tree—they are plentiful enough—provided we arc extremely careful that the air waves of our pleasure do not reach the tympanic membrane of “Janie, otherwise we may be under the painful necessity of plodding wearily homeward with- out the conveniences of a special car. Or we may learn the Art of Love- Making with Catullus, which is “superior to any method yet discovered,” exemplified so well in the case of one of the instructors. We may, in the teachings of Pindar, sail along comfortably on that golden How of water with our Joker Prof., whose pranks have been cut up all the way from the upsetting of loads of oranges in the Orient, to the serving out of gin to F. L. S. M. '04, in the principal parts of yiyvofuu, in 21 Wingate Hall. The Latin Scientific Course is designed primarily for those who wish to prepare themselves for teaching. It differs from the Classical in not requiring Greek. Latin, English, science, mathematics and modern languages are taken up at the very first, and special attention may be given to any one of these throughout the entire course. This course affords an excellent opportunity for pursuing the natural sciences, physics, chemistry, mathematics and English. The course leads to the degree of Bachelor of Philosophy. The Scientific Course is one of the oldest courses of the University. It is planned with the intention of giving a liberal education by a thorough and careful study of our own language and literature; these, Si supplemented with a course of French and German, and a careful train- ing in economics, history and the elements of International, Constitu- tional and Municipal Law, and a general knowledge of the sciences, furnish a firm foundation for general culture. The course is especially desirable for those who intend to enter banking, commercial or manufacturing establishments. After the first year the work, with the exception of the major study, is entirely elective, and those branches may be pursued which are most useful to the respective students. The Scientific Course has a great many attractions. There is a very good opportunity here of getting everything under “Allie.” We would advise those who happen to have weak fingers to try this once and see for themselves. Our German friend, “Orlie,” may be reached very easily in this course, under whose wise and fatherly instruction your sins may be “washed whiter than snow.” He has greatly helped the wicked Sophs, of late. The Lord knows they needed it badly! Yes, actually, they have allowed the Juniors to pass out of Chapel once or twice before they themselves attempted to move, with the exception, perhaps, of one “Pop” F. But still they are doing much better, and it is hoped they will continue to improve. 82 AMONG the professions which arc holding such important places in the present commercial prosperity, the chemical stands with the first. The great development of the metal industries, especially that of iron, steel, copper and zinc, and their relative indus- tries of coke and those pertaining to chemical economics and the most ellicient combustion, are calling for a greater number of chemists than ever before. In the profession of medicine the demand for com- petent chemists is constantly increasing. As a result of these and many other things that might be mentioned, a knowledge of chemistry is required by the people in general; consequently chemistry is being taught more in the schools. In no time past has there been such a call for men skilled in this science, and it is but fair to think that it will constantly increase. In view of this, the plans of the chemical department have been laid out. The courses are ample, twenty-eight in number and suf- ficient to prepare the student for any line of the subject he may desire to follow out. For those who aspire to become professional chemists 83 and analysts, directors of experiment stations, or teachers of chemistry, this department is especially fitted. Besides aiming to give a thorough knowledge of the theory of the science of chemistry in its technical applications, it designs to empower the mind by a general education, rather than by loading it with facts. As it is well known that those who love their subject and take it to heart generally do better work and make the ablest and most proficient men, this spirit is warmly en- couraged, and in nearly all cases the results have been most favorable. In the way of a few preliminary remarks to the entering student it may be stated that during his freshman year he meets first of all, the “sapientissimus” Doctor Boggs in the lecture room, where he may stand, at the pleasure of 11 is Majesty, from fifty to fifty-five minutes to recite. In the afternoon of the same day he descends to the “Hexen kiiche” and meets “Black” Mitchell. lie also has the pleasure during that year, in the second semester, of seeing and working in the qualitative laboratory. It is not, however, until the second year of the course, that he has the pleasure of occasionally giving “Johnnie” seventy-five per cent of the credit in daily recitations. 84 FOR those who intend to enter one of the larger medical schools, the Preparatory Medical Course is prepared. This course does not enter very deeply into the purely medical subjects, but prepares the student to pursue such subjects after graduation to the very best advantage. Me is furnished with an excellent training in the elementary subjects and the sciences, especially in chemistry and biology. By pursuing this course for four years, the student builds such a foundation that he cannot possibly be handicapped in his ad- vanced work. A diploma from this course admits students to the best medical schools in the country, and in many of them credit is given for the first year’s work. The professional work of the course is in chemistry and biology. The chemical subjects are organic, inorganic, and biological chemistry; quantitative and qualitative analysis; toxicology; and the testing of drugs. The biological subjects are: phaenogamic and cryptogamic botany, invertebrate and comparative vertebrate zoology, human anat- � 5 omy, advanced physiology, bacteriology, and plant and animal histology. The course may also be taken to advantage by those wishing to prepare themselves for teaching the natural sciences. Upon gradu- ation the degree of Bachelor of Science is conferred. $6 IT is a fact to be regretted that more attention is not given by the young men of the State to the excellent opportunity for the study of agriculture so liberally afforded at the University of Maine. In a State so largely agricultural as the State of Maine, where so many are engaged in the practical work of agriculture there should be a much larger percentage of students in this course availing themselves of the opportunity for theoretical and technical work than there is at present. It does not necessarily follow that because our sires have been prosperous in their occupations and have laid away snug fortunes without the aid of a technical study, we cannot greatly profit by its perusal. At a place where practical experiments are performed throughout the year, with such means at the disposal of the students, there must needs be ad- vancement made over the old methods of agriculture as well as the progress made in our centres of professional, commercial and edu- cational branches. It is not the design of the College of Agriculture to give a special training in agriculture and things connected with that alone, but rather a general training as well, which may serve as a basis for business or professional pursuits. Special attention after the first 87 year (which is general, as is the first year of all other courses) is given to the natural sciences, and the value of these cannot be overestimated. There are special short courses in agriculture, horticulture, dairy- ing, poultry management etc., which range from six weeks to two years. These courses, especially the shorter ones, are confined exclusively to their subjects, but if pursued energetically and diligently will certainly bestow laurels upon the student. Twilight was slowly fading away, and the lurid glow of the western sky fittingly became the great dark mass of woods of the eastern horizon. An uncanny atmosphere prevailed. I was walking along the field meditating in the manner that one can only when aided by such surroundings and dead silence. On my way I had to pass by the farm buildings and had not gone far when I came to the bee hives. I thought nothing of them until my attention was attracted by the buzzing of the bees within. An unusual time I thought for them to be stirring. I listened for a moment attentively and perceived that it was not the ordinary buzzing of bees, but rather a plaintive utterance, actual almost. But as the voice of the bee is unintelligible to human ears I was forced to give up the hope of making out what they were communing about. As I started off I saw the destruction that had been done. The little creatures had been robbed of their honey. “The hawks of the night have done their work here,” I remarked. “Some sweet-toothed freshman, perhaps, who gets not his fill in all the honey served out at each meal in Oak Hall.” I sighed and passed on. I had gone but a few steps when I came to the hennery and there I saw a little downy chicken weeping in the most heart breaking manner, and shedding tears as large as his head. “What troubles you little one?” I asked. lie responded in the most touching manner; “O sir! There goes my fifty dollar mother! What Wood papa say if he knew it, and what shall I do?” I looked in the direction indicated by his little yellow toe, and lo! I saw a figure hastily approaching the woods and through the still air came the voice of that Rectoris Gallina Pretiosa: “This way, ’05! ’06 is swiping me! ” But none of that noble class were near. Ah! I thought, such is life, and continued on my way. 88 OF the high standing of the College of Engineering, very little can be said that is not already known throughout the greater part of New England. Its graduates are now occupying responsible and trustworthy positions throughout the immediate section of the country, and also in New York, Canada and the West. This testifies as to the high grade of work that the engineering department is doing. As a result of this, together with the low rate of expenses at the Institution, its delightful situation, and the unusual facilities afforded for engineering work in the general layout of the land, a large number of students arc pursuing these courses. The first year’s work in the engineering courses comprises general studies. English and modern languages extend into the second. The last three years, however, are occupied mainly with engineering subjects with enough general work intermixed to give a savor of variety. Very early in the course the practical work in engineering begins. The student goes from the class room work, generally taken up in the forenoon, to the laboratory and field work in the afternoon. In this 89 way both parts of the profession are carried on hand in hand, the one strengthening the other. In so arranging the work the chief aim of the courses is happily realized, which is to give rather a liberal and professional education than a technical apprenticeship. There are at present four courses offered in the College of Engi- neering with the prospect of another in the near future. These courses are: the Civil Engineering, the Mechanical Engineering, the Electrical Engineering, and the Mining Engineering. The Civil Engineering course is one of Maine’s oldest courses, and its graduates are among the first of the Institution. 1'hese men are occupying high positions with various large concerns throughout the country. This fact greatly helps graduates to obtain a place almost immediately after graduation. This course appears to be a favorite one for various reasons. Not only is there an almost certain opening for the civil engineer upon graduation, hut in his work during the col- lege years, he has the pleasure of enjoying the healthful and exhilarat- ing air of the meadows and hills of the State of Maine. During the Tall term of each year the Seniors go into camp around Lake Pushaw and devote their time to a survey of the lake. The professional studies of the Civil Engineering course include railroad, highway, hydraulic, sanitary and structural engineering ; san- itary science, surveying, drawing, designing and thesis work. All these studies are carried on with the latest and most modern equip- ments. The laboratories, conveniently situated in W ingate Hall, have recently been fitted out with apparatus sufficient for all the experiments needed to illustrate the work. The equipment of instruments neces- sary for the field is ample and thoroughly modern. The instructors are men of varied and wide experience in engineering work, among whom may he especially mentioned “Board)',” although he may not be the most expert hunter in the State. 'The Mechanical Engineering course is planned to fit students for the designing, construction, and operation of machinery in all its more important forms. In order that the theoretical and practical work may cooperate, lectures and recitations are so arranged as to he supple- mented with laboratory and shop work. Several problems are given during the course and the results and solutions are saved for future 90 use and reference. The student acquires in this course a knowledge of the shop and draughting room, of the choice of construction material, of the modifying and applying of forces, and of the proportioning of parts to stress. The steam engine is also given particular attention during the course. In the vicinity of the University there are several large plants to which frequent trips arc made for inspection. However, the neighbor- ing plants are not depended upon entirely; occasionally the student visits the more famous ones situated at some distance away. Several courses in Marine Engineering are now offered to students taking the Mechanical Engineering course. They involve a detailed study of the types and classes of machinery used in steamships, the method for determining the necessary power for propulsion, anti design of the propelling machinery of a given ship. This work is open to students in the Mechanical Engineering course, taking the place of work of a similar nature on stationary types of generating and manu- facturing machinery which constitutes a large part of the work of the senior year in the regular Mechanical Engineering course, and is de- signed to fit men for the work in the draughting rooms or construction shops of marine engine manufacturing companies. It is recommended for all students expecting to engage in marine work, whether in engine or hull construction. The Electrical Engineering course aims to fit men for such posi- tions as professional electrical engineers, teachers in colleges and scientific schools, or managers and experts in the industrial enterprises where electricity is applied. This course does not differ from the Mechanical course during the first two years, in consideration of the fact that a large amount of work and practice in the laboratory and shop is indispensible for the under- standing of the rigid technical work that follows in the junior and senior years. Besides the general subjects, which serve as a foothold for advance work, the student gives special attention to mathematics, chemistry and physics. In addition to the large amount of mechanical work taken up, purely electrical subjects, such as Electricity and Magnetism, Direct and Alternating Currents, are carefully studied. The machinery per- 9 taining to these subjects is studied in the recitation, tested in the laboratory, and designed in the draughting room. 1'he latest course added to the College of Engineering is the Mining Engineering course. The work for the first two years is now definitely arranged, and plans for the remainder of the course will he completed as soon as there is immediate need. The first year's work is identical with the preceeding engineering courses, but the second year differs in requiring a cpiite complete study of chemistry. Already there are a number of students availing themselves of the advantages offered in this course, and there is no reason to doubt but that in the course of a few years, it will enjoy as large an attendance and be as successful as the other branches of engineering. 92 THE College of Pharmacy comprises two courses, the Pharmacy Course, which is a four-year course, and the Short Course in Pharmacy, a two-year course. To all those who intend to take pharmacy and can spare the time, the four-year course is recommended for various reasons. In this course the student gets a good liberal education as well as a thorough drill in pharmacy. The work of the first year does not differ from the first year of the other courses, and throughout the remaining years there is an opportunity for taking various studies such as French, German, psychology, political econ- omy, constitutional law and history. The Short course, however, is by no means to be dispised. Although the student does not get a chance to take much elective work, he gets a thorough training in pharmacy. The Short course takes up those things most needed by the pharmaceutist. It comprises nearly all the pharmaceutical work of the longer course. The courses in pharmacy have many attractions. They have points of interest for almost all classes of students. In the first place for those who fear explosions, combustions and the like, it may be said that there is absolutely no danger here, the temperature of the rooms is at such a degree that any agent that is in the least way ambitious, has had its ambition gratified and now lies in the place to which that emotion generally leads. Perhaps there are some who are interested in occultism or are doubtful about choice. These are recommended to come by all means and get the advice of “Jack and “Cy” Small. These gentlemen are noted for their knowledge of theurgy and matrimony. Finally we would recommend all those who contemplate taking any of these courses to consult “Cy before registration. 93 ♦ ♦ Summer School 5 ♦ ♦ THE Summer School of the University of Maine opened for the first time during the summer of nineteen hundred and two, and was highly successful in every way. It is but to be expected, judging from the successful summer schools of other colleges, that a school of this sort would be successful here; for at no other institution in the country can be found such combined advantages, both in delight- fulness of climate and beauty of scenery, as is to be found at the University of Maine. Because of the very pleasant as well as profitable time spent by those who attended last year, it is expected that we shall have many of them with us again at the next session together with a large number of others. The class room work was arranged so that all recitations came in the forenoon, leaving the afternoon free for recreation, study, or trips through the fields and woods. This plan proved agreeable to all. Some of the evenings were taken up with lectures, but most of them were left free. The School commenced June 30, and lasted for five weeks, in- struction being given in History, English, German, French, Mathe- matics, Astronomy, Physics, and Botany. These studies were offered by five of the ablest men of our own Faculty and Professor Baillot of Northwestern University, a graduate of the University of Paris. Among those who attended were high school teachers and prin- cipals, teachers of lower grades, and students of the University. The attendants had free use of the laboratories, the department libraries, and the University library which contains all the important periodicals and the Maine daily papers. The tuition covering all instruction charges was ten dollars for residents of Maine, and fifteen for others. The Summer School is now firmly established and will be held an- nually. It offers an excellent opportunity for those who wish to spend a delightful summer to the best advantage. P. S. Mr. Cummings will make a “BOTANY TRIP.” 94 SCHOOL OF LAW THE secret of success for men and institutions—how much would not the world give to him that would disclose it, and yet it is not hidden from eyes that sec, from minds that think. Occasionally, like a vein of gold, it crops out on the surface; the wanderer stops and finds what he has sought. Ten years ago, in a little known Ohio paper, the writer came across a statement to this effect: “Out of Lincoln’s sad eyes there shone forth a great mind sometimes, a great soul often, a great love—always.” This sentence seems to give the epitome of all true success. Read it slowly, test it in practice. Life is activity. Our lives, to he successful, must represent a true balance between the forces that act upon us from without and that more wonderful and most mysterious power within us that re-acts upon the world above, around, and beneath us. An open eye, then, to see this wonderful world of God and ourselves as part of it, related to it and to others in it—that is the beginning of wisdom and of every healthy activity. Blind endeavor is not wise: Wisdom enters through the eyes, And the seer is the knower; Is the doer and the sower. Grant, then, sight and insight, in however imperfect a measure, and man, the whole man, will naturally grapple with the duty lying nearest to his hand. Then the first great step on the long road that leads from victory to victory has been taken. Success—sooner or later—is thus assured for men as well as institutions, for institutions are but men acting together in the spirit of unity and in the bonds of love. The Law School of the University of Maine thus faces day by day the task before it, and willing minds and ready hands take up the work in union and in love. For the students this means chiefly studying, for the teachers teaching, for the Alumni the promotion of the interests of the School wherever they may be, for the President and the Trustees 96 the laying down of a sound policy for the School as a part of the University, for the community and the State, good will and appreciation extended to the institution in their midst—for all it means the pressing forward, with one accord, towards a common ideal, the beau ideal of a University glorious, through willing service, in the cause of the people. The Law School, opened in 1898, has now enrolled sixty-threc men, graduate and undergraduate students. They work hard, and are an honor to the School. They have long hours of study, and know how to make use of a library that is good and is getting better; but life at the Law School is not all work and no play. Two fraternities, an ex- cellent debating society and a healthy interest in athletics prevent the rise of a pedantic and quibbling spirit, add to the graces and rivalries of a young and vigorous social life, and point to the larger responsibilities of the future. Of the Law School Alumni, all are doing well. Three are in the Legislature, one in the Senate and two in the House. The people of Bangor have shown their appreciation through the daily press and through the recognition they have extended to the Law School on public occasions. The School counts among its friends the members of the Supreme Judicial Court and leading men throughout the State. The Trustees under their President, Hon. Henry Lord, and the teachers and students under the leadership of the President, Dr. George Emory Fellows, deserve the congratulations of the friends of education everywhere. As is evident from an ever growing correspondence, the State has, in the Law School, kindled a light whose rays shine out with increasing brightness and whose warmth is beginning to be felt throughout the land.

KiMA Beta Pi is a local society organized at the University of Maine School of Law in June, 1902. The object of this society is to bring the members of college fraternities and others who have attended colleges and schools of good standing into closer re- lationship. Weekly meetings are held and programs consisting of literary ex- ercises and discussions of legal propositions are enjoyed. At various periods throughout each term “quizzes'’ are held in the different sub- jects as they are taken up in the School. Sigma Beta Pi now has enrolled fifteen members, and occupies a comfortable suite of rooms in the Nichols Block, Exchange Street, almost opposite the School of Law. 141 I Nidi. L. VlOLETTE. Donald F.

Mr. E. L. Baker, last year’s leader of all three clubs, had resigned and the organization seemed to lack back However, a meeting was called and Mr. Claude A. Kittredge was chosen leader of the Glee Club and Mr Philip Dorticos, leader of the Mandolin Club. Work was begun at once with medium success. A large number of men, mostly Freshmen, came out for the Glee Club, but the Instrumental Club was not so well supported ; the outlook for that part of the organization was most discouraging. But by persist- ent effort the clubs began to obtain a firm footing, the Glee Club being greatly aided by the director, Wilbur C. Cochrane. Mr Cochrane is well versed in all that pertains to music, besides being popular with the boys, and inspiring in them respect and confidence. Gradually more men turned out for the Mandolin Club and prospects began to look considerably brighter. In place of the customary Banjo Club, it was thought advisable to try a new scheme of organizing a Banjo Orchestra, made up of banjos, guitars, a mandola, four mandolins, a cello and a flute. Mr. E. L. Baker was chosen leader. On December 13, the first concert of the season was given in Orono, in Town Hall before a fair sized and appreciative audience. Nearly every number was encored. The Banjo Orchestra proved to be a great addition to the clubs and Mr. Sprague’s ’cello solo, “Romance Sans Paroles,” was also enthusiastically applauded. The one thing lacking in the concert was a reader. Our able reader of last year, Mr. Albert Huot, did not return to college and his position is a hard one to fill. The concert was followed by a social dance, music being furnished by the College Orchestra. On December seventeenth, the clubs started on their first trip through Washington County, giving concerts at Cherryfield, under the bone. � 53 auspices of the Academy Athletic Association; at Machias; and at Ellsworth, under the auspices of the Senior class of the High School. On this trip the clubs did finely considering it was their first. On March 12, the Clubs took a trip through Dover and Dexter giv- ing fine satisfaction and having good financial success as well. The concert at Oldtown was next given before an appreciative audience, and the numbers were repeatedly encored. On March 24, the Clubs appeared in Bangor and were very enthusi- astically received. The concert went off with a snap and vim, a feature which was characteristic of all the concerts given by the boys this year. The Banjo Orchestra received a generous share of the applause, while Mr. A. W. Sprague, as usual, proved himself a favorite. After the concert a delightful dance was enjoyed to the music of Pullen’s orches- tra. On April 6, Belfast received the Clubs and a large audience was present. On this trip six concerts were given, at Belfast, Camden, Thomaston, Damariscotta, Saco and Portland. At every place visited it was unanimously agreed that the University of Maine Musical Clubs were second to none, and the college may well be proud of them. At Portland the fine reputation won last year was fully sustained, a fact which means something, especially to those who heard the concert in that city, a year ago. May 1, a second concert was given at Orono. At this, the last concert of the season, the Clubs were at their best and the generous applause that they received well attested the appreciation of the audience. At the close a delightful dance was enjoyed with music by the College Orchestra. «54 PR (Kite AM Of Closing Concert by Musical Clubs 1.

The Deutscher Yerein is no longer a thing “to be”; it is an accomplished fact. At the suggestion of the head of the German department it sprang into being in the fall of the present year, prepared to take its place beside other already flourishing university organizations. Following the natural sequence of events, the present should be dealt with after the past. In this particular the Verein can satisfy all inquirers, for the question of a present has been duly attended to by Professor Huddilston of the Greek department, who recently presented to the Verein a beautiful, framed photograph of the Goethe and Schiller monument at Weimar. The Verein appreciates not only the gift but the spirit which prompted it, because it proves the hearty cooperation and good fellowship which exists between the Faculty and students, for the Deutscher Verein is essentially an undergraduate club. Students who have had two years work in German, or its equiv- alent constitute the working force of the Verein, aided and guided by faculty members and outside friends who have done special work in German at home or abroad. The Verein meets every third Wednesday evening and a short program is rendered, consisting of music by some of its members and a talk on Germany or some allied subject by a member or invited guest, after which a “Zwanglose Gesellschaft is formed, and Erfrischungen and Deutsche Spiele complete the evening’s fun. With a hearty “auf. widersehen the Verein breaks up looking forward with eagerness to the next meeting. Since “coming events cast their shadows before them, even the Verein’s excessive modesty cannot prevent its acknowledging that the future is all its own. With the varied and unlimited talents, dramatischc Schauspeile of unprecedented excellence will doubtless be rendered in the coming years, to the great edification of the University and its friends. In fact the good things to be expected from such a Gesellschaft arc too numerous to mention here, for the space alloted to the Deutscher Verein was exhausted some time ago. 167 OFFICERS President..................................Mrs. G.

The family remained in New England until the grandfather of the subject of this sketch went to Wisconsin in 1846. He was born in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, in 1858, the elder of two children. His brother is Dr. C. Gurnee Fellows of Chicago, Professor of the Eye and Ear in the Hahnemahn Medical College, and president of the American Homoeopathic Ophthalmological, Otological, and Laryngological Society. As is usual with sons of Methodist Episcopal clergymen, his elementary education was received in various places, but his immediate preparation for college was in the Waukesha, Wisconsin, High School, and the Northwestern Academy, Evanston, Illinois. He entered Lawrence University, Appleton, Wisconsin, and graduated in 1879, after which he taught for some years in various academies and high schools, among them the Central High School of New'Orleans. After he had been in New Orleans but a few months he received a prize offered by the Louisiana Educational Society for the best essay upon an educational system for the South. During his residence in New Orleans, and while teaching in the high school, he carried on graduate work at Tulane University under President William Preston Johnston. He went abroad in the summer of 1888, studied for a year and a half at the University of Munich, and in 1890 wron the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, magna cum laude, from the University of Berne, working in history, philosophy, and anthropology. During this period he traveled extensively, and attended a summer session at Fkiinburgh University. Since his return to America, he has made three trips to Paris for special work on nineteenth century history at the Bibliotheque Nationale. Doctor Fellow's occupied the chair of European history in the University of Indiana from 1891 to 1895, an was Assistant Professor 187 of History in the University of C hicago from 189$ until he resigned to accept the presidency of the University of Maine, in 1902. During his connection with the University of Chicago, in addition to regular class room work, he gave several hundred lectures on nineteenth century history in the principal cities of the middle west, from Pennsylvania to Colorado. lie inspected officially all the institutions affiliated with the University of Chicago, and as opportunity offered has visited different colleges, so that he has a personal knowledge of the equipment and methods of something over two hundred and fifty. President Fellows was awarded the honorary degrees of L. H. I), by Lawrence University and LL. D. by Bowdoin College, in 1902. He has contributed extensively to the “American Journal of Sociology” and to various educational publications, and is the author of “Recent European History,” published in Boston in 1902. 188 A CRISIS PASSED By Dr. M. C. Fernald THIS short paper for the Prism is written in response to a request for some of the facts of interest pertaining to the early his- tory of the Maine State College of Agriculture and the Mechanic Arts, now known as the University of Maine. The writer recalls several important crises through which the institution passed in the first twenty years of its existence. By the end of that period it had become so firmly established, the plant, in- cluding buildings and equipments, had attained such dimensions, and its work had so commended itself to the people of the State, that there was little danger that its distinctive policy and progressive activity would, thereafter, be seriously interfered with. On the contrary there was such rallyings to its aid as gave large hope and promise for its future. The special crisis of which I propose to write occurred in the winter of 1880. It was no less than an attempt, by legislative action to curtail or break down the courses of study which had been established, to withdraw State support, and reduce the institution to an inferior grade. Like most plans in legislative bodies which contemplate radical changes, the purpose of this plan, for a long time, did not become apparent. The interests of the College in the Legislature, at that period, were referred to the Committee on Agriculture. When a resolve was introduced to unite the Committee on Education with the Committee on Agriculture, for the purpose of making a visit of inspection to the College, it seemed to be not only a harmless innovation, but one which might be, as it was, heartily welcomed by the friends of the institution. Two of the leading members of the attached committee were, re- spectively, Bowdoin and Colby graduates and men of marked ability, and the mover of the resolve was a Bates graduate, an able man also, who a year later was made Speaker of the House. In the mind of the writer, the fact of the college relations of these men had no special significence, as in his efforts to secure appro- 189 priations from the State he had repeatedly relied upon the aid of graduates from all these colleges, and, with rare exceptions, they had fully met expectations and freely and cordially given the support desired. To this day, he believes that what was attempted had no significance beyond the individuals concerned, and that with them, it was an honest (although as he thinks a mistaken) conviction that their proposition, carried out, would redound to the good of the State. In due time, after the introduction of the resolve, the united com- mittees visited the college and, so far as appeared were well satisfied with what came under their observation. When, however, the report of this joint committee was made to the Legislature, it was found to embody an act which, if adopted, meant, in the minds of the friends of the College, the nullifying of its efficiency and the jeopardizing of its future. That it may be judged on its merits, from the stand point of the present, the act is herewith given in full. An Act concerning the College of Agriculture and the Mechanic Arts. Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in Legislature assembled, as follows: Section i. The course of study at the College shall be restricted to three years. Section 2. During the three years physical geography, arithmetic, algebra, rhetoric, geometry, botany, book-keeping, chemistry, (general, qualitative and agricultural), during the entire course, farm implements, trigonometry, free-hand drawing, surveying with field work, mechanical cultivation of the soil, mechanical drawing, comparative physiology and hygiene, elements of geology, mechanics, physics, vise work, forge work and carpentry. These studies shall be first and thoroughly taught without excluding other kindred studies. Section 3. Lectures shall be given during the course at such time as the trustees shall fix, on the following subjects: First—Stock breeding and dairy farming. Second—Character of soils and rotation of crops. Third—Veterinary surgery and care of animals. Fourth—Useful and injurious insects. Fifth—Landscape and market gardening. Sixth—Rural architecture and sheep husbandry. 190 Seventh—Principles of mechanics. Eighth—Pneumatics and hydrostatics. Ninth—Metallurgy. Tenth—Political and constitutional history of the United States. Section 4. The expenditures of the College shall be limited to the income from the invested funds, tuition, and private donations. Section 5. The change in the course of study herein provided for shall take place on or before the first of January, eighteen hundred and eighty-one. Section 6. All acts and parts of acts inconsistent with this act are hereby repealed. Section 7. The sum of three thousand dollars is hereby appro- priated to discharge existing debt of the College. Section 8. This act shall take effect when approved. Under the strong leadership of the men who originated it, this scheme so significant in its omissions and so dangerous in its import made rapid headway in the legislature. Had it been pressed to an early vote, that is, before the members came to comprehend how much of disaster to the College it foreboded, there was reason to believe it would have carried in the legislative branches two to one. Directly, however, a systematic effort to educate members as to the real issues involved was undertaken, and thus counter currents of influence and opinion were soon established. Three days later the act came up for consideration in the House. The arguments pro and con were maintained with vigor for several hours. As the debate progressed and telling points were made on either side, it was soon apparent from the nature and volume of the applause, that the cause of the College was gaining ground, and later still it was evident that its friends and supporters were clearly in the majority. It was an afternoon session, the lamps were lighted, the hour late, and the discussion evidently nearing its close, when Hon. L. H. Hutchinson of Lewiston rose in his place and in a speech of less than two minutes gave the decisive word in the argument for the College. He spoke substantially as follows: I quote from memory—“I have listened with intense interest to this debate, and had thought to take no part in it. I wish, however, to state that when I introduced the 191 resolve to unite the Committee on Education with the Committee on Agriculture for a visit to the State College, I did it by request, and as a matter of courtesy to a fellow member. I did not understand its purpose then, I understand it now. The trustees of a college and not the legislature are the parties to prepare its courses of study, if it is to have any stability. If this legislature may prepare a course of study for the Maine State College, then the next legislature may prepare another, and the legislature next succeeding may prepare still another, and thus it can never be known what will be taught at our State College. Such a procedure would ruin any institution.” When Mr. Hutchinson resumed his seat, it was felt by everyone in the Hall of Representatives that the discussion was over, that there was nothing more to be said. Immediately the vote was taken, and the scheme to overturn the courses of study by legislative action, and to cripple the institution by the withdrawal of State support, was defeated with an emphasis, as now recalled, of three or four to one. In the Senate the scheme met with a similar fate. Thus this peril for the College was averted, and an important crisis in its history safely passed. A resolve appropriating a reasonable sum for its needs was then taken up and promptly passed by both branches of the legislature and as promptly approved by the Governor of the State. With the two essential points gained, it is hardly necessay to say that the friends of the institution regarded the outcome of the legislation relating to it, for the session of 1880, as of highly satisfactory character. 192 OX one of the first three days of December 1892, when Baxter and I were Sophomores in college, near Boston, we passed Saturday and Sunday with Brown at his home. At this time he invited us to an informal gathering at his house on Christmas even- ing, at the same time wondering what particular form of amusement he could hatch up for the occasion. Brown had been a class mate of ours in the fitting-school, we had all three played on the school eleven, and now he was putting his hustling nature into the wholesale tin business, while we were pegging away at the humanities, concerning the value of which he entertained doubts. Me had been jollying us a bit that evening, having received a noticeable promotion within the week, and so when Baxter and I got back to college, and thought ove. the entertainment for Christmas night, we decided to send out the following letter, which is self-explan- atory; this must have been done about the fourth of December: “Dear Friend:—For the purpose of making it possible fora dear friend of the undersigned, who has developed a slight mental affliction, to obtain the benefits of a specialist’s consistent treatment, we request that you mail to Mr. William L. Brown, 24 Ucayga St., one two cent stamp. Mr. Brown is the friend referred to; though any allusion to the purpose of the stamp be unfortunate, the young man is fully aware of his present infirmity, and would, we are sure, appreciate the mild form 193 of excitement furnished him in separating the stamps trom the accom- panying paper. We would further suggest that any little verse of original poetry, or any other inexpensive token you might send, would be appreciated by him. Of course the three stamps of the three to whom we are writing will prove alone small financial aid to him, but if you will take the few moments necessary to write the import of this letter to three of your friends, with the request that they communicate in like manner with three of their friends, a chain will be started which cannot fail to ac- complish the end desired. We hope that the answers will not be slow in appearing. Earnestly yours, Two of his Best Friends.” As I think the whole matter over now, I wonder that we were so short-sighted as to possible results; I freely acknowledge also that to insinuate this ‘‘mental affliction” was not in the best taste; as it after- wards turned out we—but we were sophomores, and that’s explanation enough. As a matter of fact Baxter and I hardly gave the matter fur- ther thought until we reached Brown’s on Christmas afternoon. I have, by the way, neglected to state that these notes we sent out were to par- ties living at a distance, and I am ashamed to confess, rather gullible acquaintances of ours. They were typewritten, and without address of the sender. The postman upon the steps of Brown’s house gave us the first inkling of the success of our scheme. He was passing to the maid a package of letters, tied up. Coming down the steps, as we approached, he handed us several more, all addressed to Brown, which had remained hidden in his bag. We found Brown standing in his den, cutting the string of the package just mentioned. There was a mixture of amusement, excite- ment and irritation in his manner. “Come here, you fellows,” he said, “and tell me, for Heaven’s sake, what you make of this mess of letters. The surface of his desk was covered with correspondence, dotted by frequent little red postage stamps. “These things began coming several days ago; the first ones I sent back to the office; it seemed as though they couldn’t mean me; but the 194 next mail brought them back and a half dozen more, all with stamps enclosed. I'm simply up a tree now; I'm getting a stack of pity for something that seems to be the matter with me; no one says right up and down what he’s sorry about, but they all feel bad. Listen to this : ‘The rose is red, the violet blue, My Fido’s sick, and so are you. From Little Annie.’ “Little Annie writes all the way from Rockland, Me. Do you fellows think I’m fadingaway? Baxter shot a glance at me, but it was evident that Brown did not suspect us. We burst into laughter. “Of course it’s funny,” Brown admitted, opening his mail mechan- ically and scanning the sheets; “the first few letters would have made the parody column of any poetry magazine. And they keep coming; they all seem to think poetry is a great consoler. Here, listen to this rhapsody: ‘I send you a stamp, for I just had your name from A friend who was telling me about you; There’s more where this came from.’ “Well, if there is, they’d better fence it in. But honestly now, what in tarnation does it all mean?” Of course neither Baxter nor I could enlighten him, but happened to think that the effusions and the whole story would go well for the party in the evening. Brown then smelled a rat, and it took consider- able prevarication on our part to allay his suspicions. “I tell you what, boys, some enemy of mine must have started this infernal thing going. I suspect from these letters and allusions that somehow one of those endless chains has been started, like that one which brought in four million uncancelled stamps out in an Illinois village last fall, to get an old woman into a hospital. Say, there isn't really anything the matter with me, is there? Thunderation!” Brown drew now a clipping from an envelope just opened: I pre- served it, and can copy it verbatim now. It is only one of many that turned up later, but I have forgotten much in the development of the hoax, and this one will answer well for the others, though it may not be so interesting. Brown read this aloud. ‘“THE STAMP CHAIN. Several of our leading citizens, among them John Brooks, Kd Sawyer, and old Mrs. Hobbes at the Hollow, 95 have received letters from friends telling of a poor idiot down near Boston, whose skull is hurt and whom they want to get into a hospital. They were asked to send two cent stamps which has been done with words of comfort. Let the good work go on! The cold was down to zero all day Saturday, and pumps froze in several places. The school children in district seven are talking up a spelling match for the Boston idiot, if it comes off the admission will be five twos for adults, and two twos and a one for all under twelve. The postmaster had better lay in a fresh stock. Mrs. Frank Piper returned yesterday from passing a few days at her mother’s.” Brown sank into a chair. “The Boston idiot!’’ he gasped. “I really think that at this minute you look like one,” remarked Baxter, from be- hind a handkerchief stuffed half into his mouth. Brown actually was profane. At this moment there was a miaow at the study door; Brown beck- oned to me to open it; “It’s Sarah,” he explained in a dull voice; “she arrived yesterday morning; a poem came with her; some child has had her as a pet for four years, and now sends her to me.” But a good dinner braced Brown up, and there was no further mail that day to bother him; in the evening the Christmas party obtainedso much genuine pleasure from a perusal of the letters that Brown finally came to feel himself a sort of hero, after all. He became very serious, however, when Baxter asked him how he thought the thing would end. From remarks of Baxter to me during the evening I knew right well that Baxter was beginning to feel serious himself. The crowd stayed so late that I remember we were obliged to re- main at Brown’s over night. In the morning we met the postman on his first trip; he stated to us that he would be obliged to make an extra trip that day, there was so much third class matter for Mr. Brown at the office. That afternoon I was called to the telephone; Brown wanted me. “Say Smith, have you any use for a five-legged dog? Oh, quit your laughing; it has just come in from somewhere in Connecticut with two fifty express on it. Well, couldn’t Baxter place it?” I asked him how he was feeling. “My symptoms are much worse today, judging by my correspondence. Here, I have one on the desk. Wait a second.” Then he read: 196 “‘In the distant humming city, where the shuttle and the loom, Make their buzzing buzzing murmur, buzzing murmur through the gloom—’ No, that’s the wrong one. Here’s the other: ‘If sick you feel, Remember this, Compared to dead. It’s simply bliss. When well you are. Remember this, I helped to cure, By mental kiss. Molly P. C., Age, 17 and 3 months.’ “Say Smith, I’ll send you Molly’s address if you would like one of those ‘mentals,’ all your own. But seriously now, I think you and Bax- ter would better come over this evening again. This mess is becoming too much; there are some things about the whole affair that I don’t be- lieve I quite deserve; I know I’m all right, and the whole thing is—well, you’ll come over, won’t you?” So that evening Baxter and I made the trip once more; I had told my chum how Brown was taking it, and we both had a pretty un- pleasant quarter of an hour. Brown was in his study filling a box upon the floor with the screeds. “Sit down, fellows; I’ll be with you in a momemt; I shall probably have to interrupt to sign express receipts, or go out in the back yard with meat for the dog, or the food for the two dozen guinea-pigs which are the latest comers. Well, what I wanted to say is this.” He looked at half a dozen letters, and after an instant’s hesitation tossed them unopened into the box. “I’m getting sick and tired of this farce. I don’t believe any longer it was my worst enemy who de- vised this infernal thing. He couldn’t have thought out anything so far-reaching or so hard to nail. The worst trouble is this. I don’t know whether I toid you, hut I have a—well, a sweetheart. I guess you remember Agnes Sinclair, who was here from Baltimore in the summer; as it happens, we’re engaged and she has received from some well-meaning person one of these‘please pity a poor idiot' letters, but I can just tell you she didn’t send me any two cent stamp. I paid four 197 cents overdue on her letter. She’s wild, very naturally. She received a clipping from a paper somewhere that lias a picture of some one look- ing like a retired prize-fighter; only my name was printed under it. Sort of terrible example. She doesn’t really know whether I’ve fallen and cracked my skull, without letting her know, in which case she’s all for coming on and nursing me, or whether there is really something queer about me that didn’t come out last summer; you see our acquaint- ance was a bit short; in case I'm a deceiver she underlined that she’d a thousand times rather go to the Philippines or the South Pacific. Brown was stalking up and down the room; for a moment there was painful silence, for Baxter and I were getting out beyond ourdepth. ‘‘Then again,” continued Brown, mercilessly, “my family is wild. The servant hasn’t done much else save tend the door; we have had all kinds of bum specialists who ask to see the child, and force their way into the parlor. My mother has an idea that the whole business was started by an old maid acquaintance over in Chelsea, who has always envied her her children; mother almost went over to tell her to-day what she thought of her. Mother’s getting letters too. Infant food firms, and invalid chairs. Father says if I were ten years younger he’d whale me unmercifully; he thinks I started it for the Christmas party, out of deviltry; you see I have his name, and of course these letters have been getting mixed up with his, none having “Junior upon them, and it has made him so tired, his old dyspepsia has returned and he can’t go down to the office.” “Say, this thing has simply got to stop; its outrageous !” shouted Baxter, who had been squirming during the narrative of Brown’s woes. “It very likely was started by someone who didn’t foresee the finish, but we’ve got to stop it. “Your idea is good, but unoriginal,” said Brown with the hopeless- ness of the long-sufferer. “If you will however simply tell me hoze, I will give you ten per cent of all the stamps I have received.” “Haven’t you any plan?” I asked. “No. Supposing I write to twenty of these,” pointing to the pile in the box, “asking them to write three letters, etc., saying that they have learned I am after all but a sane creature. Afflicted only by this avalanche of postage stamps. You won’t catch them writing any more good-will letters. People, the most of them, help only when there’s 198 some fun going right along with the assistance they give. Don't you see that the sending of one two cent stamp to me made most of them feel good for a week? They can tell about it wherever they go. They would be hopping mad to find out they were gulled. “Why, I tried at first. Those children up in New Hampshire who were getting up the spelling match wrote down asking for my photo- graph. It made me angry—that was some time ago, before I could smile on all this—and I simply sent back the picture of a miserable barn dog, I snapped with a Kodak last summer. The letter came just as I was having my little session with father. Well sir, two days later I received fifty twos from those kids; they had netted that sum from the auction sale of my pet dog and 177 stamps on admissions. What are you going to do against such odds ?” While Brown was bewailing his fate, I poked around in the box of letters. “What have you now ?” asked Brown; “I don’t stop to read the effusions.” I separated the stamp from the sheet and read: “ Dear child of mortality, lack of vitality, Often accompanies adolescent days ; In your maturity, may your security, In all futurity all mortals praise. P. S. This is the last verse of a poem of mine in the last county weekly. It tells about a case just like yours; he might have been saved, if it had been taken in time. I shall have one about you in next Friday.’ ” “I thought at first,” continued Brown, unmoved, “that I ought to send back these stamps ; but that would take the stamp itself. Then again, I don’t feel much obligation toward those who can perpetrate such stuff as you have read. I never in my life—” Brown’s mother tapped gently at the door, bringing in two tele- grams. “ Isn’t this perfectly awful, Mr. Baxter; to think it has come to our family, of all others. We’re so ashamed for fear it will get into the papers. I know just as well who did—” “I’ve told them about her, dear,” remarked Brown. I saw a tear in his mother’s eye. It’s nearly ten years since all this happened, but I can feel now at the thought of this evening our consternation and self- reproach, as we felt the joke growing beyond our control and rapidly becoming something other than comedy. 199 “Well boys, trouble and more of it,’’ said Brown, after his mother had departed; “listen to this, from Miss Sinclair. ‘Can't stand strain; Will start tonight; Courage. If you ’re fooling will break engagement.’ Well, my father will tell her his side, and mother really doesn’t know, and there I am. But any how, I have a place to retreat to; here’s the other message: ‘Pine Tree Sanatorium, New York. Will take you one month free treatment medicines suite for signed statement end of month totally cured. Wire answer collect.'” I do not believe I need to state that Baxter and I felt actually sick that evening going home on the trolley. Baxter pushed the tip of his umbrella along the grooves in the floor of the car, and pondered. “Sup- posing,” he said, “we were to print a little card like this: ‘Through a most unhappy mistake Mr. William Brown has been unfortunately asso- ciated with,etc.,etc.?’ What about that?” “Where would yousend it?” I asked. “Well, the newspapers might print it; they are busy with him; listen to this; it’s that paper in Philadelphia; I’ll read one sentence, although it’s a long editorial on‘Lessons from Stamp Chains.’ ‘To be sure, the commendable attempts of these three New England young ladies to procure in this novel manner the funds necessary for the purchase of a wooden leg for their boy companion are worthy of our admiration, but that deed fades into insignificance compared to what might result for good, were the friends of our navy for instance to start such a chain for the purchase of a half dozen battleships.’ Say, isn't it too bad we didn’t think of that instead? Well, I give the whole busi- ness up. Only there’s the girl coming on tonight from Baltimore. I’m not afraid about the engagement, but you know what intuition is in a woman—she’s pretty; we can’t look her straight in the face ; I know I—say, Smith, let’s—confess.” •T would in a moment,” I said mournfully,“if it would do any good, but it won’t. That won’t stop the letters.” So we decided to wait a while. Two days passed before I again heard from Brown over the’phone, l ie was glad to state that the letters seemed to have fallen off percepti- bly, so 1 dared to ask if Miss Sinclair had arrived. He told me she was removing the stamps from the last batch of letters; I inquired how she felt about the terrible affair. Brown answered, “Well, she thinks the only proper thing for you fellows is to come over and confess. She 200 spotted you as soon as I began to tell the circumstances. When she saw your photographs she was sure. Very fortunately some one broke in just then on the line or else I hung up the telephone. The thing was out now. I went up to get Baxter, we put on our evening clothes, and dismally went over to face the music. Baxter was more worried about meeting the girl than about the hoax. “Miss Sinclair is in the librarv,” said Brown in a whisper in the hall; “we won't say any more about it until you do what you can to ex- plain it to her; she’s pretty well disgusted with all of us; she’s from the south, and has a couple of fiery young brothers to which she has alluded several times; I hope you fellows will try to make her understand that all my friends are not—of this kind. She is somewhat particular about her prospective husband’s associates. You see it reacts on me.” So Baxter and I marched in to appear before Miss Sinclair; she was tall, dark, and a wealth of glorious hair surged above a beautiful face. Distant! She said absolutely nothing, so Baxter started in to stammer out his apology. He berated his own feeble mind; he insinu- ated that his associate in the plot was in every way deserving of the stamps that had so unfortunately come to Brown; he condemned the gullible public, extolled Brown to the skies as a martyr, and stuttered a finishing compliment three feet wide on Browns choice of a sweetheart. Miss Sinclair turned to me, but I shook my head; Baxter had grov- elled sufficiently for both of us. Miss Sinclair bowed distantly; Baxter, rising, said, “Before we leave. Miss Sinclair, I just want to say that— that—” The girl waited,while Baxter choked and turned very red; he burst out, “Well, won’t you just tell us how you feel; if there is any- thing, absolutely anything we can do, why, we—” She rose. ‘T will tell you just what I think. It is simply— But first I will ask if you will agree to this slight reparation.” We both were all attention. “Will you and your confederate”—and she shot a broadside of haughty looks at me—“your accomplice, will you agree to have printed a little card, and on that card you will state that you were the authors of the hoax, the only authors, and assume all responsibility for it. That Mr. Brown is absolutely sane, and that you do not feel you deserve to be considered longer his friends?’’ Baxter and I looked at each other. This was to be the ending of a friendship of years with our chum, and a girl was as usual at the bottom 201 of it. Only this time the girl—well, we deserved it all. We bowed to the decree. “You will take each one of the letters Mr. Brown has received,and send back the stamp, and the card, to the proper address?” We were in it; we bowed to the decree. “Will you pack up, box up and send to the respective and rightful owners the five-legged dog, the cat, the two dozen guinea-pigs, the white rat, the snake, and all the inanimate objects he has received since this began?” Baxter started to rebel, but I said meekly, “Yes.” Then without warning Miss Sinclair broke forth into loud laughter, and running to the folding-doors leading into Brown’s den, threw them wide open, shouting, “Will, Will, come and see these two miserable sinners. Oh dear, dear me!!” She sank into a chair, exploding with merriment, for behind the folding-doors had evidently been all the time the entire Brown family, and one glance at them was enough to indicate to my roommate and to me that they had been taking toll for the misery we had caused them. Brown came to me. “I appreciate your goodness, though it comes at the eleventh hour, old fellow. There are one or two animals Alice forgot to mention, but you’ll find them in the yard. If you want to keep the poetry, I’m willing.” Well, that ends my story. It was not however the end of the let- ters, with stamps enclosed. But Baxter and I set our teeth tight and actually got the cards printed and sent them out. We hired a boy to do the addressing. It cost something before we were through, and for more than six months we were the recipients of occasional outbursts of wrath from the “gullible public.” But the affair died down, and luckily never got abroad among our classmates. We never stood well with Miss Sinclair; she had seen us under disadvantageous circumstances. As I remarked at the beginning of this account, the publication of these facts was suggested by Brown himself. I dined with him and his wife not very long ago. But I really have never felt quite at ease when with them. They remember too much. Now if they see this in print, and note my repentance they may forgive entirely. If they can’t see it now, it will be because I have forgotten in the lapse of years certain parts of the story. 202 A NATURAL MISTAKE. “Say, Laura! I have just stepped in to ask if you will teach me to write shorthand?” “What! teach you shorthand? Why, certainly, if you want me to. But why do you wish to write shorthand? Do you intend to give up the law, and your chance to become Judge Toney’s partner and probable successor, just to be a poor, commonplace stenographer?” “Oh, no! hardly. You mistake me. Aren’t you well enough acquainted with me after these three years, Laura, to know that nothing could draw me away from the law? You sec, I wish to under- stand shorthand, so that—that—I can—ah—ah—, oh well, I haven’t time to stop now. I’ll be in to-night and explain all.” “Very well, I'll look for you to-night then.” “All right. Goodbye.” I had not gone to church with Laura, as usual, on Easter morning but stayed in my room and read “The Strenuous Life.” Laura had taken down the sermon in shorthand, as was her custom, and when I called in the afternoon showed me her notes, and explained that the marks on the first line represented the subject of the sermon—“The Love of God.” She also showed me a bunch of beautiful white Easter roses, which even outrivalled the red ones I had given her. She said she could not name the donor for she had received neither card nor letter; but then we knew the flowers might have come from a score of different persons, for everyone and even everything in Harvard, loved Laura; from dignified Judge Torrey to the unassuming “Newsboy Brigade,” on the one hand, and from the gentle town pigeons to the “raggedy-man’s” old, gray, raw-boned horse, on the other. But as the postoffice was open from three to four that afternoon, we decided to pass by on our way to choir rehearsal, to see if we could get any en- lightenment in our dilemma. The expected letter was written in shorthand, and I then knew, as I had somewhat jealously surmised, that the flowers had come from Professor Wheeler. 203 Professor Wheeler was Laura’s old shorthand instructor, with whom she had kept up a friendly correspondence in shorthand ever since her graduation from the Indianapolis Shorthand College, three years before. Of course she had always showed me his letters, and often translated them to me, pointing out the corresponding signs with her delicate, pink-nailed finger. 1 had noticed, however, that some- times she did not read to me the whole of the letter, and although I had never considered myself a jealously disposed fellow, still I sometimes felt that perhaps I had a rival in Professor Wheeler of much more im- portance than Laura would have me think. I went to church with Laura that evening, and as I walked to my room, my head was teeming with impetuous and even daring schemes. After I had lighted the gas and sat down in my easy morris chair with my feet comfortably on the sofa, I took out from my inside coat pocket the professor s letter, which I had slipped from off the piano in Laura’s parlor. I confess that I began to feel “very small,” for I realized that I was not only mistrusting her who claimed to be my truest friend, but I was also using a very “sneaky way” in which to find if my surmises were true. Ashamed of my behavior, I put the letter back into my pocket. But, I reasoned, suppose she is really intimate with Professor Wheeler? I low can I find her out before she actually does jilt me? Is not all fair in love and war?”—and then, in my desperation, I snatched the letter from the envelope. But it might as well have been Sanskrit for all I could make out of it. Suddenly, however, I recog- nized a sign just like the one Laura had shown me in her report of the morning’s sermon, for the word “love.” Could it be that Laura was really deceiving me. The next morning, after a sleepless night, nine o’clock found me talking to Benedict and Company’s new stenographer. “Mr. Darby,” I said, “I want you to transcribe this shorthand letter on your typewriter. Can you do it at once- while I wait?” He looked the letter over carefully, then handed it back, shaking his head as he did so. “I am sorry, sir, but you will have to write it out in longhand. I can’t read that system.” My course seemed hopeless, for I was too proud to ask anyone who knew me, to read the letter. There was but one alternative left, 204 and that was to get Laura, herself, to teach me shorthand, and then read the letter for myself. Once more my conscience pricked me, but the experience of the previous night seemed to have weakened my moral sensitiveness, and besides, by this time I had grown into a desperately jealous fellow—and jealousy, you know, always carries with it a lack of good sense, of clear judgement and rational action. So as soon as I had straightened up the office, I jumped on my wheel and rode over to Laura's. I found her crying over, and nursing her little poodle-dog, Gyp, for, as she said; “Some cruel boy had struck the dear little fellow on the leg with a stone. Poor little doggie.” Then followed the conversation with which I opened my story. I studied very hard, in fact just as I used to study during the Harvard examinations, for jealous curiosity drove me on, and as a result in four weeks I could read simple shorthand with ease Of course I could not always recognize the delicate distinctions between certain similar outlines, differing only in the slant or length of the stroke. For instance, the sign used for the word “could, is“ ”; and the sign for “will,” is the only difference between the two characters being that the second is slanted more than the first. And then I could not understand why one word-sign sometimes stands for more than one word: for instance “ may be read either “be or “but ; “) ” may be read either “now” or “know One evening after Laura had given me my lesson, she exclaimed; “Why Claude, what’s the matter? your face is as white as this paper. I am sure something is wrong, for of late you haven't been acting like yourself at all. You are so unhappy.” “Oh, I’m all right,” I replied, “except that I have a good deal to think about.” And I spoke the truth. “Well,” she answered, “I knew you had enough to do without burdening yourself with shorthand. You know I’m glad to help you in any way I can, Claude, but really I think you should give up your shorthand—for the present, at least. And you are so pale, too,’'—and she passed her soft, warm, hand lovingly over my forehead, increasing my pulse to 103 and sending the blood tingling to my finger tips. As I went home that night, I felt dreadfully guilty of betraying a loving trust, and by the time I reached my room I had determined to 205 attempt a translation of the letter the following morning; and if I failed—to give up the effort and confess all to Laura. The next morning I was down at the office earlier than usual, and, the office work done, I had an hour to myself before Judge Torrey would come. I sat down at my desk to study the letter. It began; “My dear Miss Sheldon,” and went on in a friendly and formal way. Having read about one half the letter, and finding nothing at all improper, I had just about concluded that my worry and jealousy had been without a modicum of footing and my inquisitive efforts all wasted, when suddenly the blood in my veins began to boil, my hands trembled, I grew faint, and the letter dropped to the floor. I had finally found the unexpected for which I had been relentlessly seeking, so long. This is what 1 saw: “ c ) £ -f I,” which I translated thus: “Will—you-be-now-my-loving-wite?” In my frenzy I did not stop to consider whether the rest of the letter was in sym- pathy with this one sentence, but madly seized it without a second glance at the page, and rode at full speed to denounce Laura with my irrefutable evidence. “Is this what you call ‘only friendly letters?’” I demanded. “Is this the kind of secret correspondence you have been carrying on? Oh you needn’t try to stop me until I have said my say! You have tried to deceive me ! Laura Sheldon, I thought you were a lady, and I placed absolute confidence in you until I saw the outline for the word ‘love’ in this letter from Professor Wheeler. I failed to find anyone able to read this particular system to me. Thank Heaven, you did so! And at last, I have found you out! Yes, you, a fickle, two-faced, deceitful woman!” “Why Claude, are you mad?” “Mad? Read this and then ask if I am mad!” And I threw to her Professor Wheeler's letter, with the convicting words underlined. “Oh Claude!” she cried, while her large blue eyes filled with tears; “Won’t you please tell me what you mean?” I stepped quickly with two long strides to her side, and firmly pointed out the outlines as 1 read “ c J -f £;”; “ IVi I-yow-be- wTe-my-loving-wife ?' ’ She smiled faintly, but sweetly, as she replied so soft and loving- like: 206 “Your old mistake, Claude. You have mistaken three words. The rit ht interpretation is,—Confd-yow-biit-k)iow-my loving-wife.” I shall leave what followed, dear reader, to your imagination. NARROW’S WOOING. Ye who love the simple stories Of the home upon the Campus, Of the building and its inmates, Of their actions and their doings, Read this story written simply. I relate it as I heard it From the lips of those who always Speak the truth, the simple candid Truth that cannot be refuted. In that building large and ample, With its hallways and its stairways, With its labyrinth of turnings, Dwells the hero of our story, Dwells that hero brave and noble. True indeed the Loan-ge-ta-ha, Stout of heart as the great oak tree That for ages stands the Storm-Flood, Stands the mighty Pau-Puk-Kewis; But as gentle as the lambkin Grazing in the summer-meadow, Grazing on the leaves of clover. And the name they call the hero, ’Though it ill befits him truly, Esa, Esa, shame upon them, But tis plain and simple “Narrow.” Narrow is the name they call him And to Narrow he does answer. 20 7 On an evening calm and tranquil, When the stars above were shining, When the moon was slowly rising From its bed within the ocean Situated in the Far-Off, Narrow left the spacious dwelling And he turned him toward the village, Toward the village in the distance Where the lights were brightly gleaming. And his thoughts were of his sweetheart, Of his sweetheart, Nenemoosha. And his step grew fast and faster. And his heart beat loud and louder As he thought about his dear one In the village by the river. When at last he reached the village, Brightly glowed his face with pleasure For his sweetheart was so near him, Near him in the little village, Situated by the river. And he crossed the bridge, the long bridge That o’er hangs the placid water, And he heard it creak beneath him, Heard the planks and timbers creaking Neath the load of thoughts within him, Gathered all about his sweetheart. Along the main road he proceeded, Straightway through the village center. And the windows of the houses All about him glistened brightly, And the little stars above him Sparkled from their ebon setting, And the moon was smiling sweetly; Love encompassed all surroundings. Narrow on his journey onward 208 To his sweetheart, Nenemoosha, While within him love was glowing Like the red rose in the spring-time Blushing deeply in the Forest. But like storm-clouds, dark and murky, Rising from their gloomy couches, Dark, uncanny, in the Black-wood, That bring horror to the people; So was sadness and deep sorrow Brought to Narrow as he journeyed. Right before him on the highway. On the smooth and level highway Stood three of his boy companions, Companions that he oft, at even' Joined in sauntering through the village. Then his heart seemed void of motion, And his spirits sank within him. For he knew that he must join them. And postpone his gentle wooing. For he would not have them know that He went wooing in the evening. It might get among the fellows, Or, perchance, into the Prism, Greatest that of all great evils. So he joined them, heavy hearted, And they sauntered slowly onward, Toward the church there in the distance. They approached the holy building When the great doors opened widely, And from out the lofty portals Came the people, holy people, From the house of God and worship. Then they looked at them departing Up and down the level highway. Now, from out the throng of people 209 Came a pretty little maiden, And she stood in front of Narrow, And she smiled and looked upon him, Looked and smiled and spoke in thuswise: “Why, good evening! dear friend Narrow, Are you coming up this evening? We will be real glad to see you.” Then the three friends roared with laughter, And the rocks gave back the echo, And the people looked upon them. Then the maiden saw her blunder And went off among the people. Hut poor Narrow stood bewildered And his face was as the crimson Flowers that strew the summer meadows, And he spoke in answer saying: “ ‘Tis not her whom I have called on, But it is her elder sister, And she’s no kid I can tell you. And I take this oath before you, If George Carle don’t keep his mouth closed There’ll be trouble in the Wigwam, In that home upon the Campus, In that dwelling large and ample, With its hallways and its stairways, With its labyrinth of turnings.” Thus he spake and then departed In the quiet of the evening ‘Neath the shadow of the elm tree, Out along the level highway. 210 CLASS DAY EXERCISES Monday.

Oh happy college days ; The parting hour has drawn us near To chant our hymn of praise. With saddened hearts and tear-dimined eyes. We tread these dear old halls. Apart henceforth each pathway lies Wherever duty calls. Thou guided right our stumbling feet, Thv influence was strong: Thou led our lives in ways most meet To keep from every wrong. The future dim we bravely face. Alone each one must plan : The world has for each one his place : We’ll do the best we can. Fair Alma Mater, now adieu The breezes whispering sigh : May friendship’s bond bind firm and true. As swift the years pass by. And in our hearts thy memory dear Will ever hold it’s sway : Life never can be wholly drear With this to cheer our way. Now Alma Mater on each one Thy benediction send ; Crown each one’s years with victory now O kind and guiding friend. May ever the future records tell Of honor wealth and fame For we who sing our last farewell To thy bright and glorious name. 213 C Mi 1ENCEMENT U ECEI 1 IONS THE BETA ETA CHAPTER OF BETA THETA PI FRATERNITY JUNE 10, 1902 Edwin B.

Cony G. H. Winn 228 BASE BALL REVIEW IN January, when the call for candidates for the base ball team was issued, a good number responded, and the outlook for a winning team was very bright. We lost but few men by graduation, and as the freshmen class was well supplied with material, especially pitchers, we felt quite confident of winning the State championship. Mr Rudderham, the coach, arrived at an early date and commenced to put the men through the preliminary stages of training. Our new Gymnasium offered unusual facilities for training, therefore we were in fairly good condition by April i. The season opened on April 5, with a game with Harvard Uni- versity at Cambridge. As this was our first game with this institution, we were very anxious to make a good showing, and in this we were not disappointed, for, while we did not win the game, we succeeded in scoring twice, and we allowed I larvard but eight runs. Our next game was with Wesleyan, which we won by a score of 4 to 3. Then came defeats by the New York National League team and Manhattan College, the former by a score of 7 to 2, and the latter by a score of 12 to 7. Our next game was with Andover, and we won easily, 11 to 7. Our next games were practice games with various fitting school teams of the State, and were a good preparation for the harder college games that followed. On May 3, we met defeat at the hands of Hates by the score of 6 to 3. Instead of discouraging the team, however, this made them work all the harder. The result was a victory over Bowdoin, May 8, by the score of 7 to 1. On the tenth of May our team journeyed over to Waterville, prepared to administer its annual defeat to “poor old Colby.” The result was beyond our highest expectations, for in one inning we succeeded in getting a home run, a triple, two doubles and three singles, netting six scores and putting us far in the lead. The final score was Maine 14, Colby 6. It is said that “Ike” Saunders dreamed of base ball for a week afterward. On May 14, came our second game with Hates, in which we were victorious by the narrow margin of 2 to 1. It was one of the most scientific games of base ball ever seen on the Campus, both teams playing an almost errorless game. At the beginning of the eighth inning, the score was one to nothing in favor of Bates. Holmes was the first man up. lie put up an easy one to the third baseman who dropped it. After one out, Carr came to the bat and singled, landing Holmes on third. The excitement was intense for “Frisky” was at the bat and a hit meant the tying of the score. He was equal to the emergency and sent a hot one between second and short stop, scoring I Iolmes. Mitchell came to the bat and succeeded in driving a long one into centrefield, scoring Carr. This ended the scoring. Our next game, with Tufts, was an easy victory, the score being II to 6. We expected an easy time with Bowdoin at Brunswick, but owing to poor umpiring and listless playing we were defeated, 5 to 3. Our last game, with Colby, also resulted in a defeat, Colby playing gilt-edged ball. As we had won and lost a game with each of the Maine colleges, it was decided to arrange a third with both Bowdoin and Bates in order to determine the championship. The game with Bowdoin, Maine won by a score of 2 to 1; with Bates, by a score of 8 to 7. As our per- centage of games won was greater than that ot any other Maine college and as we had won two out of three games with two of the colleges and broken even with the other, the championship was unquestionably ours. Space will not permit mention of the individual work of the men, but it is sufficient to say that they all worked faithfully and deserved all the honor which they received. Quite a number of the team graduated, but it is safe to say that with good coaching and hard work, our next year’s team can be developed into a winner. 230 Harry M.

Many of last year’s ’Varsity were back, as well as a good number of freshmen, who were looking for fame and honor on the gridiron. The work was in charge of Coach Robinson who came to us with recommendations from former coach, Farley, and also from W. H. Lewis, Harvard’s famous center. Mr. Robinson went to work with a will, and soon demonstrated to everyone that he was thoroughly com- petent to teach the fine points of the game. All of the men worked hard. They realized that more depended on the outcome of this season than on any previous one, owing to the fact that our championship team of the year before had given us a pos- ition to maintain. Upon the opening of College, September 18, a large number of candidates turned out and practice began in earnest. The ’Varsity and Second eleven had many sharp practice games and by the time the season fairly opened, the men were in excellent condition physically. The season opened September 20, with a practice game with Bar Harbor. Several freshmen were tried in the various positions and showed up well. A number of new players were tried,and the weak points of the men noted. Maine won the game 18 to o. The next game with the Eastern Maine Conference Seminary resulted in an easy victory for Maine. The score was 36 to o. Maine's lineup was almost wholly changed in the second half in order that more freshmen might be tried. On September 27, came a practice game with Coburn Classical Institute. The game resulted in a victory for the collegians by a score of 30 to o. On October 4, at Waterville, occured our first college game of the year, with Colby as an opponent. We expected an easy victory, but met with a surprise ; we were able to score but once during the whole game. We succeeded, however, in keeping Colby from scoring. Par- ker was easily the star of the Maine team, making two thirty-yard runs 234 which would have resulted in touchdowns had anyone interfered for him. The hard-earned victory over Colby acted as a stimulus to the men and they went to work with renewed vigor, determined to make a good showing in the Harvard game, which occured on the following Satur- day. In this they succeeded, for during the first half I Iarvard was able to score but once. The Harvard coach kept putting in fresh men and their fierce line bucking gradually weakened our team, so that the Crimson was able to score three touchdowns in the second half, leaving the score; Harvard 23, Maine o. On the following Saturday, we met Tufts at Bangor, and easily de- feated them, 11 to o. Some of the tactics employed by Tufts’ players were rather questionable, but were probably due to the excitement of the game, rather than to any intentional roughness. Our next game was with Bates, at Lewiston. A special train with about 300 supporters, including the College band, accompanied the team, hoping to see Maine again victorious; but they were doomed to disap- pointment as we were beaten, 6 to o. On November 8, we met the strong Colby team for the second time during the season. Colby had been making a wonderful record, with the aid of her three stars, Keene, Levine and Watkins, and expected an easy victory. Our men, however, went into the game with that “do or die” spirit that is characteristic of Maine teams, and succeeded in bring- ing a splendid victory out of what seemed a sure defeat, thus checking Colby’s aspirations for the championship. But the greatest game of the year was the Bowdoin game, which took place in Bangor on November 15. The ground was in very poor condition, owing to the rain of the day before. During the first half both teams played fiercely, but neither was able to score. In the sec- ond half, however, the superior physical condition of the Maine team began to tell,and, after brilliant work by Dorticos, Parker and Bearce, the Bowdoin goal line was finally crossed. This seemed to give the Maine team new courage, and without losing the ball, they carried it the length of the field for the second and last touchdown, thus clinch- ing the game for Maine. By winning this game, the University of Maine foot ball team again captured the championship of the State. With so many good men in college, and with “Mike” Farley fora coach, the University of Maine team for 1903 ought to be a winner. 235 Carlos Dorticos, ’03, Captain W.

This was Mr. Mack’s second year at the University of Maine and too much credit cannot be given him for the work accomplished. The track team, under his leadership, succeeded in winning the State meet for the first time in the history of the The training for the first few weeks consisted of light setting up exercises which acted as a good preparation for the harder out-door work that was to follow. Large numbers of men turned out, especially freshmen and sophomores, and while we had no idea of winning the State meet, we were confident of making a good showing. The first meet of the year was the freshmen-sophomore meet, held May 3. The meet was interesting from beginning to end, especially the pole vaulting of Parker and Shaw The sophomores succeeded in scoring 75 1-2 points, while the freshmen could get but 50 1-2. Much good material was brought to light, as can be seen by the fact that three College records were broken. On Monday forenoon, May 12, occured the second meet of the year, the Class meet. Many of the events were closely contested and a number of the College records were broken, among these being the pole vault, high and broad jumps, the half mile, mile and two mile runs, and the hammer throw. The seniors captured the meet, scoring a total of 43 points ; the freshmen took second place with 37 points; the sophomores third with 30 points; and the juniors brought up in the rear with 16 points. Following the Class meet came the Invitation meet. Although this was only the second year in which the Invitation meet had been held by the University of Maine Athletic Association, a large number of fitting schools were represented. Every event was closely contested. Bangor High School won the meet with a total of 41 1-5 points, while College. 256 Kent’s Hill took second place with 31 points. Third place went to Skowhegan High School with a score of 27 1-5 points. On May 16, came the Maine Intercollegiate meet, held at Lewiston. Bowdoin had always won this meet by so large a margin that to defeat her seemed almost impossible. As the meet progressed, however, it be- came evident that in the University of Maine, Bowdoin had found a worthy antagonist. In the sprints Captain Harris, who was pitted against Hunt, of Bowdoin, succeeded in winning in a close finish, “Frisky” captured both the high and low hurdles. The most interesting part of the meet, however, was the running broad jump. The points then stood, Maine $5, Bowdoin 53. In the first jump, Hamilton of Bowdoin went 19 feet 5 inches; Parker, Maine, 19 feet, 8 1-2 inches; Hunt of Bowdoin, 20 feet, 4 1-2 inches. Parker on his next jump went 20 feet, 5 7-8 inches. Hunt, leaning over the pit, remarked: “That’s better than mine, I will have to beat that this time.” His next jump was 18 feet, 7 1-2 inches, and he was unable to bet- ter it. In the finals, Parker showed great steadiness, his three jumps being 20 feet 6 inches, and 20 feet 5 inches, and 20 feet, 5 3-4 inches. As this was the last event of the meet, the victory was Maine’s, the points being: Maine 60, Bowdoin 57, Bates 8 and Colby 1. The last event of the year was the New England Intercollegiate meet, held at Worcester. Watson of Maine broke the record in the discus, while Elliott took third place in the hammer throw. The season as a whole was most successful and gave evidence of Maine’s wonderful advance in athletics. The material now in College, together with that of the incoming freshmen class, ought to be suffi- cient to develop a track team of unusual excellence for the spring of I903- 257 V. K. Ellstrom R. M.

Practically all of last year’s team responded, and also a large number of freshmen. Two or three nights a week were devoted to practice, and the team developed rapidly. Paige, ’o6 and Aborn, ’06 were among the best of the new men, and, although but freshmen, they have shown their abil- ity to master the finer points of the game. The first game of the season was with the Ticonic Club of Water- ville. We easily downed them to the tune of 41 to 18. The next game, with Colby was also ours, the score being 20 to 14. The game with Coburn Classical Institute was little more than a practice game, the final score being 34 too in our favor. Many substi- tutes were tried in the second half, and all played a good game. We next played a return game with the Ticonic Club, which we won, 18 to 16. Some of the tactics employed by the Ticonic men were very ques- tionable, and had our team not been very certain of the final result, it is probable that they would have withdrawn during the game. The game with Bangor Y. M. C. A. was also full of unnecessary roughness, but we succeeded in winning, 19 to 17. The record thus far had been spotless, for we had not suffered a single defeat; but alas for our fond hopes. We were defeated 14 to 11 in a return game with Colby. The game was intensely exciting from start to finish and the result was in doubt up to the last moment of play. We also lost to the Dover and Foxcroft team, at Dover, by a score of 24 to 18. It is hardly possible to mention any one man as deserving of special honor for so successful a season, as each one has done re- markably good work. Ellstrom, the captain of the team, graduates this year and his loss will be felt severely as it is largely through his efforts that basket ball has assumed so important a place in the athletics of the College. But with such an abundance of good material at present available, the prospects for a winning team for next year arc very bright. 262 'TENNIS WINNERS OF TOURNAMENT DOUBLES Ralph T. Hopkins J.

Generally speak- ing that was what our foot ball heroes, who came back early last fall for practice, found on our blooming Campus. Everywhere quiet, like the calm before the storm, broken only by the occasional arrival of another hero with trunk and dress suit case, until by the tenth of September, eight or ten of the faithful had re- turned and donned the war paint. Still they kept coming, and when Coach Robinson arrived on the twelfth, he was warmly welcomed by about twenty of Dorticos' war-like band. The solitude was now slightly jarred. On the following week, the “early session” drew its customary good attendance, and by the 18th, about 400 votaries of knowledge and foot ball had assembled, ready to begin the strenuous life. The solitude was now entirely dispelled and there were doings on every hand. As usual, the crowd of “New Things” began mixing up the registration committee and throwing foolish questions through the pidgeon- hole at Clara B. For about two weeks they hung around, loose-like, worried to death for fear that their certificates had been given the “frosty doughnut” by Prex the Great, but try- ing their best to appear blase At the end of this time they began to fall into the ways of the College, such as looking out for sudden showers in the vicinity of Oak Hall and keeping away from Chipper’s pond. As the days passed they became gradually enlightened, thanks to their “instructors,” the sophisticated sophs, and in a week or so appeared for the most part like other people. During the period of their enlightenment a certain member of the lesser faculty, who had the misfortune to resemble a freshman was taught a few things about hurdling by the energetic application of a hard wood slab. On the 265 evening of the 19th, the freshmen, attired as if in supplication to the god of dreams, were passed in review before the appreciating citizens of the “spruce gum town.” After considerable roughhouse in the vicinity of University Hall, during which time a searching party was in- augurated for one of their number whose oratorical damper became loose, the verdant herd were induced to move on, which they did with wonderful alacrity. Soon the silence of midnight reigned supreme—only to be broken occasionally, by the stealthy footfalls of some excited freshman returning from Veazie with his night shirt under his arm. On the 27th of September occurred the freshman-sophomore base ball game, and truly this was a nerve-racking, hair-lifting contest. About thirty strike-outs were scored and there was high and lofty tumbling of several kinds. The sophomores won out in the eleventh inning by the close margin of 5 to 4. A new department was instituted just before the game in place of the annual grand stand scrap. The banner on which were printed the freshmen numerals was held by a freshman and a sophomore, mid-way between the assembled classes, and at a signal the rush was on. The sophomores were overwhelmingly victorious and the stimulus received from this enabled them to win the hotly contested game that followed. After these events, interest centered around foot ball. Colby was defeated at Waterville in a close game and after a week’s hard practice the braves struck the long trail to Massachusetts. The showing made against Harvard was entirely satisfactory and when we won from Tufts the following Saturday, in Bangor, everyone went to sleep and dreamed of future foot ball victories. It is said that Scottie failed to wake up for the remainder of the year. 266 Two weeks after the Tufts game, the College went to Lewiston ac- companied by the band and a good number of blow-hards, also a little cash, to see Maine whale the boys within the shadows of Mt. David. Something happened? Well, we should say yes. Somebody left the key of the combination at home and Maine failed to make good. The last Maine man was just hustling through the gate when he heard the following dialogue, to an accompaniment of vigorous slaps on the back: “By jolly, Cyrus, (whack!) I jest recken that surprised ’em some.” Then a very ministerial voice: “Don’t be profane, Ephraim. Yes, I believe that will bring them to a realizing sense of their true position. We’ll hold a peanut drunk and just burn a tar barrel on Mt. David to-night.” The victim hurried on and heard no more. And the “realizing sense” seemed to have dawned for the team got busy in earnest and every night a crowd turned out to see and cheer the practice. Up from Waterville came tales of a mighty Watkins, a black cyclone, who had gone through the whole Bowdoin team for a touch- down, twice in one game. All Waterville, Colby College, and Sam, the janitor mascot of the visiting team, was coming by special to see the game between Watkins and the University of Maine. But, alas! Watkins, otherwise known as the great steam man, let his fires go out. That is why Colby retired with banners furled—poorer, but wiser. Yes, there was a rummage sale of fireworks on Colby’s Campus that evening. The irrepressible Bolivar, the elephant mascot, was staked in upon a con- ' venient portion of the field and was hailed with joy as a good omen. Now came the crisis. Everyone nerved himself to meet Bowdoin—and Anna Eva Fay. The gentle Anna Eva, an agent of futurity of unlimited fame, had prophesied that Bowdoin would win. Accordingly, all the stray chips in Brunswick town had been staked on the champions to-be. 267 The night before the game, “Maine Night,” Alumni Hall was ablaze with light and thronged with enthusiastic supporters of the blue. Speeches, songs, and cheers were the order of the evening, and there was an ever increasing determination to win on the morrow. 'I he team was imbued with this determination. It was a dark, damp day but the spirits of Maine’s supporters were bright for poor old Bowdoin’s banner was dragged through the mud and the score was 11 to o. Anna Eva denied the charge of adire prophesy, and many were the enthusiasts that failed to show up on the Campus at taps that night. It was a great victory, the crowning effort of a successful season’s work, and every- one was supremely happy. Things soon began to settle in the customary ruts and excitement was replaced with plugging. There were few capers until some of the to the hen coops as a means of digression from the close application to their studies. A biddy with a brass encircled leg and her name in the book, a truly noble bird upon whose cast iron constitution three years of experimenting had produced no effect, failed to be counted in the round up one sunny morning. There was no fuss. A few days later a hive of bees, that Professor Gowell had failed to bring in for the winter, was roughhoused and robbed of about forty pounds of sticky sweets that the busy workers had stored for the coming winter. Immediately Hock Shaws and Sherlocks sprang into prominence from among the faculty. Absolutely no clews were left by the culprits, and except for the warning notes of one old chanticleer, long an inmate at the Farm, absolute mystery enshrowded the whole affair. A long and persistent search by the faculty detective bureau was fruitful, however, and the transgressors were arraigned for trial. It was rumored that the purloiner of the chickens was betrayed, while the culprit with a sweet students turned their attention 26b tooth, was discovered while practicing the tonsorial art with a honey- comb. Furloughs for an unlimited period were immediately granted these offenders. The College ran along about the same without them until at a meeting of the Council, compassion was taken upon the un- fortunates, and they were allowed to return from their exile at the end of three weeks’ time. The comic supplement to the foot ball season blew in on the twenty-second of November. Posters announced that the Honey Eaters would play the Bee Chasers in the forenoon while the afternoon would be given over to the sophomores, who would show the freshmen a few things about foot ball. It took but a short time to discover that the Bee Chasers were an all-star aggregation, while the Honey Eaters were no debutantes. It was on this forenoon that Willie Stewart, of the Lost Bees, made his stellar debut as a worthy wearerof the canvas togs. The glory of the day was all Willie’s when, picking up the pigskin as it rolled out of a scrimmage, he tucked it under his arm and flew 105 yards down the field for the only touch- down of the game. It was said that he touched the ground only in a few places. It was indeed a touching scene when Willie, nose guard in hand, threw a little talk into the crowd in recognition of their liberal applause. After that the game went on as usual. A comedy with a full repertoire and 10, 20 and 30 admission, took place in the afternoon when something happened that was called a foot ball game by some. It will suffice to say that the sophs pulled out with a beautifully wide margin of 28 points. After this game the freshmen made good by presenting the Col- lege with peanuts in abundance. Had the faculty so requested, they too, might have figured in a peanut drunk. On the evening of the presentation of the last bushel of peanuts, there was a slight agitation on the Campus which was afterwards digni- fied with the name of “peanut scrap ” The leading features of the event were the absence of President Locke of the freshman class, and 269 the cleansing of about twenty-five freshmen in the waters of Chipper’s After this things again drifted along smoothly, basket ball and dancing being a means of digres- sion (I like that word) from the dull monotony of cramming. It is said that these harmless amusements were recommended by the faculty in order to prevent students from becoming candidates for the foolish factory at Bangor, through too close On February 12, our relay team left for Boston accompanied by “Tommy” Keane who had arrived at Orono upon an earlier date than was usual for a coach, in order to get the team into shape for the B. A. A. meet. On February 14, we received the sad news that we had dropped the race to Tufts by one quarter of a lap.

Here’s A period of tranquillity was rudely disturbed by the news that the freshmen (Oh! admirable nerve) had held a banquet. A more extended account of this nerve racking affair will be found in another part of this book. Thus details are unnecessary. However, foxy Mr. Fox was not foxy enough to elude the vigilance of the sophomores. Doubtless he will remember the pat he received on the pate with an empty punch bowl and be foxy enough not to cater to another freshmen banquet. 270 appearance at this meet with the track, the team vantages.

They dragged more laurels by winning the basket ball game with the sophs. The special features of the evening were the vaulting of Parker and Shaw and the tumbling of Downing, the latter being truly marvelous. The last of March, base ball became the absorbing topic of interest. “Rudder” was with us for another year and prospects were brightest for a record season. On the third of April, the team, accom- panied by Coach Rudderham and Captain Mitchell left for Massachu- setts. Owing to the inclemency of the weather but one out of a series of four scheduled games was played. That was with Wesleyan and we re- peated the good work of the year previous, winning out by a score of 17 to 8. In this game the team took on a batting streak, even the tail-enders fattening their averages with a total of two hits, and Willie Towse made it necessary to re-cover the ball with a beautiful home run A series of victories with “prep.” schools and Maine went up against Bowdoin at Brunswick, April 22. Cox was not invincible and Bowdoin narrowly averted a shut out. This game initiated the Maine intercollegiate base ball season and Maine had certainly made an auspicious beginning. That evening the town woke up. The faculty also woke up and sputtered about using “moderation in celebrations.” Yes, they say that Dr. Drew did find his skeleton, Samantha, nailed to the flag pole and bearing the legend, “poor old Bowdoin” in bold letters at its head. More victories in practice games followed, the team showing great ability at the stick, and we were ready for Bates, May 2. Here again the old reliable Bolivar served well his duties as a mascot and Mr. Bates’ School for Boys and Girls suffered defeat, 9 to 4. I11 this game a se- rious accident was narrowly averted. Russell, of the Bates aggregation, more familiarly known at the University of Maine as “Polly,” fell asleep in deep center and a fly ball came near proving fatal to him. He 271 should be careful about such things. At the close of the game prayers were held in Alumni Mall in place of the regular celebration. On May 5, the editor was obliged to listen to the famished cry of the printer for “more copy” and the last of the Prism went to press. Finally, we have come almost to the end of the last term of the year. Commencement and the agony of exams., then it will all be over, and we shall say farewell to dear old Maine and leave it to its three months’ sleep. May it sleep soundly and be ready to foster and cherish many other years as successful as this has been. 272 “The hearing ear and the seeing eye.”—The Faculty. “Present in body, but absent in mind.” —E.

There was a professor named “Mamie,” Who together with “Jimmie” and “Janie,” Made up a Committee Oh ! say, 'twas a pity !

The First Freshman Banquet WITH AI'OLOGIES TO 1 PETER DUNNE. “Have ye heard, Hinnesy, how me friend Scabbo, the man what bit the owl, and the other sophs attended the first Freshman Ban- quet?” said Mr. Dooley one bright spring day. “Will now Hinnesy. it baites anything I heard lately. Ye know the sophs hod bin predictin’ spring showers, whin along comes a fresh- man class meetin.’ Thin me frind Scabbo asks thim did they decide to have a banquet. Ye see, Hinnesy, he knows all about their doins because he is a member of the ’05 detective squad, an Eddie and Pat and Pete an Gussie is all members. They call thimsilves “Grangers’’ fer disguise. It wus at dinner time, Hinnesy, whin up spaikes a fresh- man and gives him an invite which he accipts wid pleasure fer himsilf and a few frinds. “Will, Hinnesy, that evenin’ the freshmin be sittin' round smokin’ their poipes, and it occurs to thim that loife is dull. Ye see that wer the night ave wan ave thim fraternity dances an none of thim hod invites. So they begins honeyin’ the razor strops ave one of the Sophs 283 which wer enough t' excite the ‘spicions ave me friend Scabbo who is goin’ in tli’ Scotland Yards whin he graduates. “Will, Ilinnesy, thin the little boys gits inter their glad rags and looks as innicint as sheep killin’ dogs, an the detective squad puts all the upper clessmen wise. “Even thin, Ilinnesy, the sophs were a little slow, fer all the fresh- min boots out ixcept one ave me friends who goes t’ his room on th’ quiet. Does he git there, Hinnesy? Not much, fer the detictive squad toilers him an taikes him into th’ Sophs room where they jump on ‘im amazin.’ It is wonderful, Hinnesy, what a man will tell when he gits frightened. Will me frind gits that frightened he don’t lit himsilf be riscued by th’ juniors which wus willin’ fer yer see they all thought some. Och! Hinnesy, but it wus an amazin’ fine steer. Will, th’ freshmin distribute thimsilves all over th’ country, some goes ter Old- town while others goes ter Bangor. Another thing, Ilinnesy. Locke, th’ freshman president, happens t’ go t’ Oldtown ter call on some lady frind and the freshmin frum th’ other houses wus mostly all out an’this wus a clue fer th’ detictives. “Well th’ squad sits things movin.’ Some of thim with invites to th’ dance, cuts it and perambulates down t’ Bangor t’ watch th’ hotels; others goes t’ Oldtown after Locke, fer they hod their doubts, Ilinnesy, as ter th’ right place. But most ave thim intinded goin’ up on th roof fer t’ git th’ air, where they mostly taikes their meals nowadays—out ave sight.” “An what,” asks Mr. Hinnesy, “was the result ave all this?” “Why,” said Mr. Dooley, “th’ detictive squad is in th’ condition ave th’ man who isn’t tired but wus confused by th’ sights.” Satan : Is this hot enough for you ?

Who took Gowell’s chickens? No one spoke in the room, The faculty meeting was shrouded in gloom, The profs loafing round in the various chairs, Had drawn close together, and whispered in pairs. For rumor had it that one held most dear Had wandered away from the path straight and clear, And ’twas not for the student the faculty pondered, But his father upon them had gold dollars squandered. On the other side of the question, Prof. Gowell contended. Some costly experiments suddenly ended, So the faculty pondered in unusual calm, As to what should be done for protecting the farm. Twas suggested at last by a prof, fierce and stern, That allowing due time e’en the worm must turn; So to expedite matters and clean up the haze, He moved a suspension for just thirty days. The faculty hastily voting the plan, Sent “Shortie” to Boston to see his Old Man. Now his vacation over he walks straight and true, And Gowell since then has had nothing to do. 286 Jim Dumps fast was growing thin, His class, their hosses hid from him; At last a high stool he brought in, .

There can scarcely have escaped your notice, a shady little grove in the center of which are loosely scattered about several broken-down seats and tables. Enveloped in the mantel of your own thoughts has it ever occured to you that, though they have the appearance of not having been used for ages, yet perhaps, there was among you a certain click which regularly held its meetings upon this isolated spot and partook of the many good things that the near-by farm affords? Fancy to yourself on a moonless night, a crowd of dusky forms taking seats about such a table, lighted only by a single dingy lantern. Leaving you to picture in your imagi- nation such a scene, I will proceed with my story. Now, of course, the all important essential of such a gathering is a toast-master,and upon this occasion there was none lacking. As he arose to speak the stillness of the night was broken by the far-off hooting of a belated owl. With face saddened to the degree of painfulness, he be- gan in a trembling voice, “Boys, this is undoubtedly the last time that we shall meet together under similar circumstances, for, in a few weeks we will be scattered to all quarters of the globe. In this, our last gath- ering around our sumptous board, it gives me great pleasure to call up- on one of our members to give us a farewell talk, a member who, though he has had the weight of the social part of the class resting upon his right shoulder and the religious part upon his left, has not only been able to carry these loads, but has, furthermore, in his Senior year borne the burdens of the class Presidency, a man, who though he is a self- professed woman-hater, is, we understand, a secret member of the Ban- gor Y. W. C. T. U. Boys, it gives me great pleasure to present to you, Mr. Simpson.” The man (?) thus magnanimously eulogized arose, hitched up his trousers and spoke as follows: “Members of 1903 and fellow class- mates, I take great pleasure in being thus called upon to address you at this our last grand assembly. We have had many in the past two years, and now, it is only fitting that I should give to you some fatherly 299 words of advice as well as to reveal to you some startling facts concern- ing the members of our honorable body, the class of 1903. In a few weeks we are going away and it is for us to consider what kind of ex- amples we are leaving with the classes beneath us. Probably had it not been for the fellow that sits opposite me at the further end of the table who was our president during our sophomore year, there would not be as many underclassmen chasing to Bangor nights as there are at the present time; yet, boys, didn’t Steve Harris always kick about the grub at Oak Hall when he boarded there, and has it ever been any better since ? Here on my left is a base ball and foot ball man who has been so tied to an apron string in Washington County that he has never met any of the fair sex either in Bangor, Orono, or Old Town. And I will leave it to Bill Cole or Fred Collins if he has got as much out of his college course as he should have? Sitting next to him is a fellow who knows every inch of the car track between the College and Old Town. Boys, that fellow ought to have taken the civil engineering rather than the pharmacy course. There is a foot ball hero whose familiar face is not present with 11s to-night, but let’s see, this is Friday night, doubtless he has important business on hand which will keep him in Bangor until Monday. This business matter would be a great saving to him if he boarded at the Hall where for three days absence, board is deducted. On my right, I see two faces that have been familiar to the class only during the past year. I know most of you fellows are disgusted with them, but boys remember it will be but a few weeks longer, so try and keep a stiff upper lip, appear not to notice them and every- thing will turn out all right. There now remains but one question, what is going to result from all this? I would be willing to stake all the fortune that I expect to amass during the remaining portion of my life that should any of us come back here next year, we would find “Pete” Bean deeper than ever in the toils of love, Scabbo Flanders taking Si Small’s place as a regular visitor at the Hen Coop, Willie Trask going it alone, and the spirit of Bill Cole hovering about the Mystic Ten. But, I perceive that it is beginning to grow light in the East and I am afraid that if we do not hurry the sun will be up before we get to 300 bed. Now for the last time, let’s give three times three for the old class. As the last faint echoes died away, the whole band arose as one man and silently clasped hands. There was a tear in many an eye, in many a mind the resolve to turn over a new leaf as they stole away in the fast fading twilight. Soon the blazing rays of the morning sun filtered through the tree tops and all that was left to mark the scene of the night’s revelry was a broken table, a keg, and a few feathers. “I dread the day that we must part.” —MacDonald, '06, to his sweater. “We frequently find men while attempting to ridicule others, ex- hibiting their own ignorance.”—Eby. “lie has a shape of which he is proud.”— Whitney, OJ. “I’m on very good terms with myself.”—Mitchell, ’05. Fresh! fresher!! freshest!!! —Sampson, '06, Crowell, '06 and Goodwin, 06. A Human Dictionary.—Chaplin, 'op. All that glitters is not cold.—Robinson Opera Company at Bangor.

Tommy II—(i) No, it is not the place of a manager to do the dirty work. This should be relegated to a faithful assistaut. (2) According to accounts, your shrewdness in running the College store must have won for you an immense fortune. McCullough—No. the College is run by the State and we doubt if your claim will hold good. (2) In regard to re- ducing a red nose we would say that corn starch is a safe and effectual method. (3) In regard to your being cut out by your friend B—perhaps, after all, the old love still burns and by wait- ing patiently you may win back your old sweetheart. Willie S—I should advise you to con- sult a physician in regard to the dark circles under your eyes, for unless you stay up very late at night or go out more than is good for you, they must be caused by ill health. Thank you very much for your good words. Bird—Personally, I do not think it good taste to exchange photographs with a young lady upon the second meeting. You had better find out how many other photographs of young gentlemen acquaintances she has. A base ball photograph would not be included in this. Soderstom—It is very bad taste to have a swelled head about nothing. Simply leading the band, in our opinion, would not warrant this. Tucker—Yes, by wearing a picture of “Allie” Rogers in your lapel you un- doubtedly have got a strong pull with him. No, we would not advise you to take up the study of law ; a four year course in some good agricultural school will be more advantageous to your welfare. Alton—Try and forget when you are talking all about yourself and think of the pleasure and comfort of other people, and you will find that the nerve of which you complain will entirely disappear. Flanders—No, Scabbo, I should not say you had a mortgage on the College, for most everyone of your class thinks that lie has, and I cannot see how all your claims can be justifiable. Shealian—No, we do not consider it proper for two young men to be waiting upon the same young lady at once. It might lead to embarrassing situations for the lady. Besides, according to your own story you arc only acting as Vic’s understudy. Bunny—No, we can find no law in Maine’s statutes which prohibits the intermarriage of races. Of course, society might refuse to recognize your squaw, and you might be forever banished from the swell circles of your native town. We should advise you to camp upon other grounds than Oldtowu before your affections get bey’ond con- trol. 302 Vicstrom—(i) No, one pair of bor- rowed rubber boots does not constitute a whole camping outfit. (2) What if you can manage a canoe like an Indian, anybody is liable to upset in a squall. We would advise you next time to tie the rubber boots on. (3) Your ex- perience in putting out fires should enable you at once to obtain a position on the ’Varsity department. (4) Yes it is bad taste to return through Old town at 7 o'clock in the evening with only oue rubber boot and a canoe carrier, when people are going to church. Collins—By reading the magazines and the best books, thinking them over and talking about them, you will gain ease in conversation. Treworgy—To be able to say foolish things to the girls does not make you a society king. Patronizing airs are not the most efficient means of becoming popular. Martin, ’06—No, my dear, you arc only suffering from a swelled head. For a Freshman, water is the surest and safest remedy. Prexy—(1) No, it is bad form for a President to take part in college cele- brations. The students should be quite capable of running their own lires. (2) Yes, skyrockets are very dangerous playthings and you did right in at once seeking shelter where you could be immune from such carelessness in handling fireworks. (3) No, bee hives should be taken in before mid winter in order to insure them against possible attack. Berry—We treat your letter as strictly confidential and compliment you for your business-like reply to our ad. We note your reference to your matrimonial complications, and advise if you desire the young lady for your wife, that you steady down a bit and devote your ener- gies to preparing yourself to be her worthy spouse. For Farmer’s Almanac (concerning moon's phases) and a schedule of “Boo” cars corrected todate, send io cents in stamps, and your order will receive our promptest attention. Richardson—Yes, it was certainly highway robbery for the conductor of the Boo cars to charge you ten cents for going two rods beyond the Lower Basin road. Yes, it is very unkind for the motorman on the last car to ring the gong when he is within a mile of the house, still you could hardly blame her father for being wrathy at being thus rudely awakened. Now, Richie, you can employ oue of three alterna- tives; move into the neighborhood, bribe the motorman, or plug the bell with absorbant cotton. Paine—Yes, Pink Pills for Pale People are sometimes effectual in bringing color to the cheeks. We fear that you have mistaken your vocation. The Theological Seminary at Bangor is better adapted to your wants. 303 Doc. Lewis Eby Si Small, Leader Si Small K. L.

Gymnasium, of Boston, says of it as follows : Dear Sirs:—1 can only speak of the “Old Johnson’s Anodyne Liniment’’ in the highest terms. I have used it in the gymnasium when the boys have strained or overworked their bodies, and it has worked like magic in reducing swelled joints and in removing soreness of the overworked parts. At home my wife has used it with our boys and speaks most enthusiastically; would not be without it for the world. In fact for most all the -light ill of the flesh, internal and external, it most certainly is all you claim for it. [Signed] Robert J. Roberts.
