I t i needle to ay that the la o f 1909 came ff victoriou i n the d runk, fea t inu upon the peanut in one of the be t room of the :r erald. Follow inu the fea t wa the election o f officer . Later i n the term came Colby Day w i t h the Fre hman drill wh ich kept u bu y day almo t we k be forehand. Then another great red letter day in our hi tory-the F re hman Reception at which our Pre ident wa pre ent in a very remarkable hall we ever forget it ? Thunder-Light n ingo-arb. Theo in June our exit. Rain but a gloriou od t ime ! u r ophomore y a r we returned mailer in number , b u t t hose o f u w h o \\ ' re le f t f e lt very wi . for w e r we n o t o n e year nearer being enior ? We tarted out w 1 1 , by aga in w inning the peanut drunk through the remarkable trat o-y o f t\ o o f our memb r . Then du ring the year, fol lowed our cla par t i , one gi en by the men o f the cla and another by the women. That year ended randly \ ith our ophomore exit. \ hen \ e returned a J u n ior \ e were till fe, er in numbers.

Colleo-e l i fe seemed a more eriou affair to ti than when we were ophomore and Fre hmen. At the clo e o f the year, however, we ca t a ide what d ign ity we had and again became Fre h men i n pirit and behaviour. That J u n ior exit wa a never-to-be-forgotten event. But now we come to our enior year, our last within the arms of our dear Alma � later. Our mother ha done all he can for u to make u strong and competent to cope w ith the dutie before u out i n the great, w ide world. \i\That have ,, e done for our elves ? Have we made u e of every opportu nity ? Have nd. above all t h ing , what have we done we made the be t of what is in u ? for our college ? These a re que tions for each member to ask herself individually. In a few week more the Cla of 1909 will have passed out from the protect ing a rms of Colby. }f ay it be a credit to the in titution where it has spent four happy years w i th o many pleasant associations and warm friends. And in leav ing Colby, may it be our ambition still to erve as loyal supporters of Colby which has l i fted each member of the Class of 1909 to a h igher plane of womanhood.

History of the Freshman Class MEN

I ndeed it is with fears and apprehensions that we devote so much as a single l ine to the history of the Freshman Class. \i ith fear and appre hensions, I a) , becau e such people so young and unlearned in the way of the world are apt to attribute such a irs to themselves because \Ve h ave deigned to give them a word of introduction . as it were, that they would be in grave danger of having that disease which is so common among first year men. swell-headedness. If such a 1:hing should happen, and perchance their heads hould well to such proportions tliat an) of their gray matter should e cape, j ust pictur to yourselves what a task ' Schlugs· · Chester would have to classi fy it. B u1: there is one thing that will always be a source of plea ant memorie to them, and that is that they have the distinction of entei-ing college the ame year that ' Presiden t Rob· enters (. upon his du t ie . o we w ill very briefly detail a hi tory of the cla s of r 9 r 2 . One day, late la it September, this motley throng of seventy-two member swarmed over the campu like so many locusts, seizing and devou ring everything that chanced in t heir wa) . In spite of warnings from upper cla smen to de ist from such , anton and reckless actions lest perchance some dire calamit_ should befall them, they continued '" ith their w ild cavort . Ala for their supercilious self confidence ! Pride at length taketh a fall ! One dark n igh t when the rest of the world wa asleep, a h ideous racket awakened the erstwhile valiant but now hiverng Freshmen, which wa the ominous prediction that a band of demons fol lowing the ance tral t raditions of their god Ph i .Ch i had set out upon one of their periodic expeditions of razoo i ng the Fre hrnen. Dire were the noise and cene that followed. At length these pecters departed leaving behind them a chastized and sorrowfu l group of Freshmen, each tucked into his l ittle bed groaning and crying to h imsel f and whose only consolation was "] u t '" ait till I'm a ophomore." But such things cannot last forever. There must be an end somewhere. ince that memorable occasion , they have deported themselves i n a less coospic uou manner except for the fact that each one has acqu ired a trange freak of wearing a little green skull cap. Nevertheless, they sometimes break their bounds and have to be chastized anew, in order to make them learn to keep their proper place . We hope, however, that they w ill finally grow big enough to ee the folly of their ways and w ill so far progress along the paths of knowledge, as to exert the ame fatherly influence a year hence upon the incoming Freshman Class as l ia been thi year exerted upon them.

For thi reas n one f the mo t f rtile and picture que fam1 in the villao-e wa fa t o- ing to ru in a the owner a ·wealthy bu in man of a nei0·hborino- city could not rent i t owi n o- to the "pantom auto," who e favorite re tincr plac eemed to be the tor of the hill j u t in fron t o f the olc l farmhou e .
