Johnson Play Hosts To 47 Members And Guests The societies of the Sons and Daughters of Colby, composed of stu- dents whose parents attended the col- lege, were guests of President and Mrs. Franklin W. Johnson at dinner in the Alumnae Building on last Mon- day evening at 6.30 o' clock. There are 47 members of these two societies now in college, including six whose grandfathers and three whose great grandfathers attended the institution. Five members of the faculty and staff who also are descended from Colby Alumni were present. After the din- ner the large delegation went into the reception room to enjoy an informal program. President Johnson was the first speaker. His address follows : The first Colby son to graduate from this college was Samuel W. Mathews of the class of 1854, son of Asa Mathews of the class of 1829. The Society of the Sons of Colby was founded in the fall of 1920 with 16 members. The group was invited to the home of President Roberts for a dinner which thereafter became an annual event until the President' s health failed. The society of the Daughters of Colby was established a few years later. Looking, now, at the group of Col- by sons and daughters now in college, I find 27 men , 21 girls and five mem- bers of our staff , making a total of 53.

SORENSON TALKS ON HIS NATIVE ICELAND Colb y S tudent Enli g htens Men on Subject A very interesting nnd enlighten- in g talk concerning Iceland was given in Friday ' s chapel by Martin Soron- son , n Colby student from that coun- try. He explained how most people pict u re Ic elan d , ub n small island sit- uated In tho North At lantic , covere d with I co and inhabited by Eskimos.

Mr. Soronson brough t out tho facts that tho Island 1ms n democratic form of govern - m ent , a strict enforcement of tho pro- hi bition law, and has n o army.

SO PRANO AND PIANIST APPEARED IN CONCLUD ING CONGER! OF YEAR Miss Glad ys de Almeida And Jose da Costa Were Well Received The Colby Concert Series of 19321 tones of the singer ' s voice. These two was ended Tuesday evening, by the brilliant concert of song and piano se- lections given by Miss Gladys de Almeida and her accompanist , Mr. Jose da Costa. The sweet tones of the soprano ' s voice and the pianist's studied technique captivated and GLADYS DE ALMEIDA Soprano thrilled the audience. In her first group of songs Miss de Almeida included "Se il ceil mi di- vide ," an Aria by Piccini , in which hex- voice reached gorgeous heights, ring- ing out in strong; sure notes. The next two songs were lighter in qual- ity and brought out clearly the sweet numbers were , "Freschi luoghi ," by Donaudy, and "Amor Commanda , " an Aria by Handel. The next selections were played by the accompanist , Mr. da Costa and in- cluded "Praeluium ," by Macdowell , which required intricate technique; "Saudade ," by David de Souza; Cho-p- in ' s "Nocturn e in F minor ; " and tlie "Ri goletto Paraphrase/' of Verdi- Liszt. The two most interesting num- bers of this group were: the Saudade antl the Rigoletto Paraphrase. The former is a Portuguese -word which it is impossible to translate into Eng- lish , but which in its meaning both JOSE DA COSTA " Pia nist musically and verbally- stands for the longing which comes from separation , but which in being. ' contemplated brings joy and not sadness. The Rigoletto, was. .a_familiar;;tu.ne. placed with skill in an interesting interpreta- tion. It seemed almost as if the musi- cian were making the piano talk, his notes were so vivid. Miss de Almeida' s selections which followed were , all French songs with their charming plaintiveness which be- came especially lovely , when inter- preted with the gentleness of . tone which she was so capable of using. Faure ' s "Claire de Lune," gave an op- portunity for her to bring out not only the sweet high notes, but the low full tones as well. In "Apres un Re-ve , " by the same composer , she reached an emotional depth by her sympathetic interpretation . which thrilled the lis- teners, The song, following was De- bussy ' s "Fantoches ," and in singing tliis Miss de Almeida certainly grave an excellent rendition, of this exotic type of music. She brought oixt a gayness which had dejth beneath, its seeming levity, and although the song was short it was, oh , so expressive ! The last of these ¦ songs, "Si j' a. -va is vos ailos/' by Message., had a lilt which carried it along joyously, These lighter songs wore folio-wed by compositions of a more intense typ o, two of them being . Gorman songs and three written by American composers, Tho two German pieces brought out tho full clear tones of hor voice , being rather dramatic songs. Tlie first , "Un d gostorn hat er ," by Mnrx , showed an intensity of emotion , whilo Ruhonstoin ' s "Es blinkt dor Thau ," seemed to bo a plaintive plea of haunting tones fad- ing out into one soft noto. The song "Spring, " wr itten by Margaret Starr McClnin , nn d sung from manuscxipt , ¦wns a joyous hopeful bit of music, in keeping with its title; whilo Charles Hopper ' s "Cnrmoncita ," which was dedicated to Gladys do Almeida , had the swing wo always associate with «uy singovB of tho southern countries. The (lnnl song in this group was tho moro familiar "Song 1 of tho Open , " hy Prank La Forgo, brin ging out in its w i l d patt ern of not o tho carele ss abandon of the Gypsy soul. The four selections wh i ch Mr, du Costa played woro all Portuguese and hud th o Spanish flavor—n gayness of noto with a captivating swing, Tho num bers In t h is grou p woro: N olto do Sno Jono ' Carlos Pa glluchi Fn dunoho _._Oscar da Silvu Fn do No, _ (un lnmento) _ A.

This -will take place on the fifteenth and sixteenth of April. As it is now planned "the week end will begin with a mammoth treas- ure hunt on Friday afternoon. This will be rather unique in that instead of running around on foot , as is usu- ally the case in an affair of this kind , the sleuths will dash around from "Dan to Boersheba " in their gas en- gines, Otherwise than this the hunt will bo quite similar to the treasure hunt as we know it, This treasure hunt is an experiment. It is also a good experiment. In order for it to be a success, though , tho student body will have to polish up their kitty-cars, brush off their bicycles, and fill their gas tanks.| A fitting prize will bo awarded to tho winner. Lot's get out and bring homo tho bacon, Tho gal a event of Colby ' s social calendar will be tho Junior Prom on Friday evening, The services of Lloyd Rafnoll and his Georgians have been secured for the danco. Neither ho nor his band need any introduction to Colby students, So af tor you have re- turned from tho treasure hunt , dig out your tux and your host girl and trot thorn both to tho lig formal danco of tho year, Tho dance will bo good , and tho music will bo good.

Pillsbury Presents First X-Ray Moving Pictures Ever Taken The final lecture of the Colby Lec- ture Series was given by Doctor A. II. Pillsbury in the First Baptist Church. This last lecture wns a fit- ting conclusion to the 1031-32 series. Doctor Pillsbury is a man of wide ex- periences. He is a scientist , explorer , naturalist ; bu. t , as Professor Chester said in introducing him, ho is above all a hum-in being. Dr. Pillsbury has made some exceedingly interesting observations of great scientific value by moans of his lapso-timo moving picture camera. By moans of this camera it is possible to watch plant growths which ordinarily tako weeks, take place on tho screen in a few min- utes. This is done by taking compar- itivoly fo-sv exposures. Dr. Pillsbury has arranged a device by which pic- tures can bo taken at tho rate of from thirty a second to ono ovoiy thirty m inutes, Dr. Pillsbury showed to tho enthus- iastic audience six reels of his pic- turos. Five of them depicted plant life. 'Die films showed tho plants ns seeds , showed thorn sprout , grow, blossom ,-md thon dry up. Special at- tention was paid to tho blossoming of tho buds, All of thoso pictures woro tinted In thoir natural colors, This lent n realistic touch to thorn that made thorn all tho more interest- in g. Another development of Dr, Pills- bury 's is tho X-Ray moving? picture, This is dovolo pod on the snmo princi- ple as tho lapso-timo moving picture only that tho films aro X-Ray films, Results woro obtained which later proved to bo not 6nly Interesting but also of enormous scientific -value. It Involves ei tremen dous oxponso to tnlco pictures of this ty p o, , A third ty po of picture •which Dr. Pills bury presented was tho micro- sco pio lapso-timo moving picture. Horo ho showed what ono sees on looking through tho most powerful of mlcr oscoiioH, Only instead of having to watch for woolts nt n timo bent over tho instrument , nil that ono has to do Is to watch-tho screen for a fow brief moments, By means of this Di\ Pillsbury has taken pictures depict- ing tho fertilization of plants. One could see all that happens in tho growth . of plants and in their forma- tion. As a concluding reel Dr. Pills- bury showe d some films that depicted plant life at the bottom of tho sea. The pictures were exceedingly in- teresting to the average layman , but to the person of scientific mind they woro far more than that—they opened up to this man a world which ho know existed but which he never before hnd hnd the chance to soe.

SOPRANO AND PIANIST APPEAREDIN CONCLUDING CONGER! OF YEAR

Miss Gladys de Almeida And Jose da CostaWere Well Received

The Colby Concert Series of 19321 tones of the singer's voice. These twowas ended Tuesday evening, by thebrilliant concert of song and piano se-lections given by Miss Gladys deAlmeida and her accompanist, Mr.Jose da Costa. The sweet tones ofthe soprano's voice and the pianist'sstudied technique captivated and

GLADYS DE ALMEIDASoprano

thrilled the audience.In her first group of songs Miss de

Almeida included "Se il ceil mi di-vide ," an Aria by Piccini, in which hex-voice reached gorgeous heights, ring-ing out in strong; sure notes. Thenext two songs were lighter in qual-ity and brought out clearly the sweet

numbers were, "Freschi luoghi," byDonaudy, and "Amor Commanda," anAria by Handel.

The next selections were played bythe accompanist , Mr. da Costa and in-cluded "Praeluium," by Macdowell,which required intricate technique;"Saudade," by David de Souza; Cho-p-in 's "Nocturn e in F minor ;" and tlie"Rigoletto Paraphrase/' of Verdi-Liszt. The two most interesting num-bers of this group were: the Saudadeantl the Rigoletto Paraphrase. Theformer is a Portuguese -word which itis impossible to translate into Eng-lish, but which in its meaning both

JOSE DA COSTA" Pia nist

musically and verbally- stands for thelonging which comes from separation ,but which in being.' contemplatedbrings joy and not sadness. TheRigoletto, was..a_familiar;;tu.ne. placedwith skill in an interesting interpreta-tion. It seemed almost as if the musi-cian were making the piano talk, hisnotes were so vivid.

Miss de Almeida's selections whichfollowed were, all French songs withtheir charming plaintiveness which be-came especially lovely , when inter-preted with the gentleness of . tonewhich she was so capable of using.Faure's "Claire de Lune," gave an op-portunity for her to bring out not onlythe sweet high notes, but the low fulltones as well. In "Apres un Re-ve,"by the same composer, she reached anemotional depth by her sympatheticinterpretation . which thrilled the lis-teners, The song, following was De-bussy's "Fantoches ," and in singingtliis Miss de Almeida certainly gravean excellent rendition, of this exotictype of music. She brought oixt agayness which had dejth beneath, itsseeming levity, and although the songwas short it was, oh, so expressive !The last of • these ¦ songs, "Si j'a.-vaisvos ailos/' by Message., had a liltwhich carried it along joyously,

JUNIOR WEEK ENDPLANNED FOR APRIL

Treasure Hunt, Prom, BallGame and Open House

Plans are under way to resume theJunior Week-End which has not beenheld for several years. This -will takeplace on the fifteenth and sixteenth ofApril. As it is now planned "the weekend will begin with a mammoth treas-ure hunt on Friday afternoon. Thiswill be rather unique in that insteadof running around on foot , as is usu-ally the case in an affair of this kind ,the sleuths will dash around from"Dan to Boersheba" in their gas en-gines, Otherwise than this the huntwill bo quite similar to the treasurehunt as we know it, This treasurehunt is an experiment. It is also agood experiment. In order for it tobe a success, though, tho student bodywill have to polish up their kitty-cars,brush off their bicycles, and fill theirgas tanks.| A fitting prize will boawarded to tho winner. Lot's get outand bring homo tho bacon,

Tho gala event of Colby's socialcalendar will be tho Junior Prom onFriday evening, The services of LloydRafnoll and his Georgians have beensecured for the danco. Neither honor his band need any introduction toColby students, So af tor you have re-turned from tho treasure hunt, dig outyour tux and your host girl and trotthorn both to tho l ig formal danco oftho year, Tho dance will bo good , andtho music will bo good. You had bet-tor not miss it.

On Saturday afternoon there is tobo n ball game, This game is alreadybeing arranged by Coach Roundy,Following tho gnxrie, during tho after-noon and onrly evening, chasers willbo hold in the -various fraternities.There will bo dancing in the differenthouses, ouch of which is to bo open tonil tlio -mon of Colby,

INTERESTING SCIENTIFIC LECTURECONCLUDES THIS SEASON'S SERIES

Dr. A. H. Pillsbury Presents First X-RayMoving Pictures Ever Taken

The final lecture of the Colby Lec-ture Series was given by Doctor A.II. Pillsbury in the First BaptistChurch. This last lecture wns a fit-ting conclusion to the 1031-32 series.Doctor Pillsbury is a man of wide ex-periences. He is a scientist, explorer ,naturalist ; bu.t, as Professor Chestersaid in introducing him, ho is aboveall a hum-in being. Dr. Pillsbury hasmade some exceedingly interestingobservations of great scientific valueby moans of his lapso-timo movingpicture camera. By moans of thiscamera it is possible to watch plantgrowths which ordinarily tako weeks,take place on tho screen in a few min-utes. This is done by taking compar-itivoly fo-sv exposures. Dr. Pillsburyhas arranged a device by which pic-tures can bo taken at tho rate of fromthirty a second to ono ovoiy thirtyminutes,

Dr. Pillsbury showed to tho enthus-iastic audience six reels of his pic-turos. Five of them depicted plantlife. 'Die films showed tho plants nsseeds, showed thorn sprout , grow,blossom ,-md thon dry up. Special at-tention was paid to tho blossomingof tho buds, All of thoso picturesworo tinted In thoir natural colors,This lent n realistic touch to thornthat made thorn all tho more interest-in g.

Another development of Dr, Pills-bury 's is tho X-Ray moving? picture,This is dovolo pod on the snmo princi-ple as tho lapso-timo moving pictureonly that tho films aro X-Ray films,Results woro obtained which laterproved to bo not 6nly Interesting butalso of enormous scientific -value. ItInvolves ei tremendous oxponso to tnlcopictures of this typo,, A third typo of picture •which Dr.Pillsbury presented was tho micro-scopio lapso-timo moving picture.Horo ho showed what ono sees onlooking through tho most powerful ofmlcroscoiioH, Only instead of havingto watch for woolts nt n timo bentover tho instrument, nil that ono hasto do Is to watch-tho screen for a fow

brief moments, By means of this Di\Pillsbury has taken pictures depict-ing tho fertilization of plants. Onecould see all that happens in thogrowth .of plants and in their forma-tion. As a concluding reel Dr. Pills-bury showed some films that depictedplant life at the bottom of tho sea.

The pictures were exceedingly in-teresting to the average layman, butto the person of scientific mind theyworo far more than that—theyopened up to this man a world whichho know existed but which he neverbefore hnd hnd the chance to soe.

"The Problem- of .Liquor" is the title chosen for the next editorial con-test sponsored by the Intercollegian. A subject uppermost in the mindsof thinking people, a problem which will have to be solved eventually bythose who are now college students, the Intercollegian urges that as manyas possible give the matter thorough consideration, and furthermore thatthey contribute thoughtful, constructive proposals. This contest will havegreat significance by stimulating- local Associations which strive to initiatediscussions of the kind.

A social problem which is as important in its relation to the future as ithas been in the past should indeed be carefully pondered by every intelli-gent individual. The benefits derived or not derived from the Eighteenth•Amendment have long- been a moot question. This contest provides a wayfor the person who feels strongly in one way or another to give expressionto his opinions in an orderly, thoughtful, and logical manner.

WHY WE ARE HERE.In an earlier issue of the ECHO attention was called to a production of

"The Dreyfus Case" at the State Theatre. The value of this productionwas educational rather than that of entertainment. It was a source of en-couragement to those who would like to have the local picture houses im-prove the character of their offerings, that such a large number of Colbystudents patronized the performance. It is gratifying that the manage-ment of the State Theatre has announced the intention of bringing othereducationaLfilms to Waterville. Indirectly this will be of educational valueto the college, student body, and that section of the city's population whichhappens to have a taste for the better type of movies.

Furthermore, it is to be hoped that the response of the college commun-ity will be such as to -warrant , the management of the State Theatre to con-tinue this-laudable project.- f On next Monday and Tuesday, March 14 and 15, at 4.30 P. M. and 10.30E. M. . a .motion picture presenting the story of evolution and entitled tho"Mystery of Life" will be presented. In another column of this issue there:is a description of this much-discussed film. It is understood that Profes-sor. Chester plans to give ono or two lectures explaining its significance,

As a .pictorial achievement and in its human interest , the "Mystery ofLife" has been widely acclaimed in the larger cities. The students of ColbyCollege for whose immediate benefit the picture is being brough t here, areto be congratulated in having this and similar opportunities in the nearfuture.. The admission fee will bo very moderate.

"Hollyhock Hop" One ofSeasons Best Dances

The sophomore members of the wo-men 's division established a reputa-tion as excellent entertainers at theirHollyhock Hop, which occurred at theAlumnae Building at 8.00 on theevening of March 12. The decora-tions carried out the idea of a gardenparty, tho walls being bordered withcrepc-papo. fences and flowers. Aceiling ol crepc-paper streamers hadbeen arranged , and colored lightswere hung corner-wise across the hall.

This attractive and spring-like set-ting furnished an appropriate back-ground for tho gaily-colored drossesof tho feminine element. Seventy-odd couples danced to tho orchestraof the Midnight Sons of Colby,, whointerspersed their program with di-verting specialty songs. During inter-mission ice cream , punch , f.nd cookieswere served.

Tho dance was under the chaperon-ago of Dean Ninctto M. Runnals , Dr.and Mrs. William J. Wilkinson , MissMuriel J, MacDougall , and ProfessorWalter N. Brockonridgc. The com-mittee , under tho competent loader-ship of Mary Ellen Hodgdon , ','14,chairman , is to be congratulated onits fino work. Other members of thecommittee were tho Misses Mary Burs ,E.

CHI GAMMA SIGMA ISNEW PHYSICS GLUE

Officers Elected; Group IsFor Best Physics Students

Colby 's newly organized PhysicsHonorary society is arousing consid-erable interest at its meetings.

. Steps taken last semester , resultedin tho organization of Huh studentsociety, now known as Chi GammaSigma, in an attempt to fill a long feltneed. Tlio first open mooting tookplace .on February 19th of this somes-tor.

At this meeting, Bernard PI. Por-ter, gavo u talk on tho life and accom-plishments of Michael Faraday. Mr.Porter presented a resume of thegroat experimenter 's life , and illus-trated the latter part of his talk withlantern slides, The speaker succeededin making Faraday, a very real per-sonality to those present , and vividlydescribed his problems und accom-plishments,

At this sumo nicotine;, Clayton F,Smith developed the principles .ofelectrical .oscillations and current fro-yuon cies, , Each principle cove rod waswell illustrated , for llio whole lectin .table . was .cluttered with appnrutus,The explnnation s may have boon dryto some, hut ono or two of tlio audi-ence wore "shocked" by the nppro-prlatnnos s of tlio experiments. This ,In . particular , when Smith , a stoel rodIn .each hand , touched tho termiiui l ofiV. ToBtln coil.de vel oping over 1,000 ,-000 'volts , thus brimrin ir his body tothat potential , and thon with theother rod , caused n wpark of severalinches to jump to nn obliging specta-tor., The second mooting wns hold on

March 11th. This lime the mooting:was attended hy u lurgor group,

Mr, Kin o Hill presented , tho firstpiipor , tills on the life nnd work ol.'Jumos P, Joule, Mr.. Hill told of tliodifficulty which Jotilo experienced intfotthiff yocognition , nCtor his d iscov-

ery of the quantitative relation be-tween ' work, and heat energy. Hewont on to show how gradual refine-ment of apparatus resulted in moreaccurate values for the mechanicalequivalent of heat. In closing, Hilldisplayed and followed through cal-culations based on a recent determin-ation of tlio equivalent which he hadmade , and thon demonstrated the ap-paratus used , which was on the tablebefore him.

Tho last pap er was presented byEmery S, Dunfce , on sliort radio-waves. This talk was up to tho min-ute. Tho thora pou tic vnluo of shortwaves was discussed , including refer-ence to tho "Radio fever," and tho"Radio knife." Mr. Dunfce also dis-cussed tho workings of the low capa-citance vneumo tube , which makespossible these ultra-short wave lengths—waves so short that they resemblein ninny respects, ligh t waves.

Discussion nnd questioning fol-lowed both of those papers , and latertho audience broke up Into groups , tocontinue tho discussion, Many pres-ent stopped to admire a neatly de-signed nnd compact four tube shortwave receiver , built by Forrest C.Tyson , Jr.

Tho next mooting of tho societywill follow soon after the spring vaca-tion , at which time Tyson , an d G.Donald Smith will probably presentpapers.

Eligibility for membership requiresun average of 13, or better for twoyears of Physics , though all Inter-ested students of both divisions oreinvited to attend all announced meet-ings,

"Vacation finds Colby students wend-ing their way to their homes. Vaca-tion today -is a simple affair in com-parison to the features of by-gonedays. Little does the student worryabout the time or convenience oftravel. Olden times found very dif-ferent conditions confronting hopeful¦vacationists. The record of changein Colby vacation travels is a descrip-tion of the typical growth of modernAmerican methods of travel.

Two of the Colby men this year areto fly by plane to New York in orderto save a day of their vacation. Tlieactual time will be between two andthree hours. Compare this with themethods used by the first president ofthis college, who spent nearly a weekcoming from Boston.

Jeremiah Chaplin , the fixst presi-dent of the institution , came fromBoston in the summer of 1818, accom-panied by his family and a few stu-dents. They set sail in a sloop fromSalem on a Saturday, proceeded alongthe coast and entered the Kennebec,finally docking at the "port" of Au-gusta the following Wednesday. Therethey changed to "long boats" and wentup the river propelled by wind part ofthe way and towed by oxen when thebreeze failed. Not until the next daydid they step ashore at Waterville.The whole ti'ip from Salem takingabout the same length as a rather slowliner needs to go from New York toLiverpool today.

Even a number of years later,travel was no easy task. We have the

record of James Upham, of the classof 1835, telling of his trips from Bos-ton by ship and tho inconvenience ofbeing becalmed for a week near themouth of the Kennebec. Stagecoaches also were available, but thewinter trips in these -were none toocomfortable, according to his descrip-tion.

"Tete a tete in stage coaches withtravelers whose tongues soon stiffenedwith the cold that stiffened their fin-gers, with drivers who warmed up in-wardly at every bar >ve stopped at,and became very Jehus down the icyhilts; rides till midnight, with an earlystart the next morning—in one ofthose midnight rides we were over-turned and 1 still carry the scar of along gash which laid my skull bare—these things, and the like, suggest thatsome of us who climbed the hill ofScience in those days did not find alltlie difficulty in the climbing. Still ,tliey are now like the ship-wreckedMariner 's experiences, 'very pleasantin the distant retrospect.' "

But it took more than a few hard-ships in those days to discourage suchUicls with a craving for knowledgewho came to Waterville College andwent through the rigorous intellectualgrind and stern discipline of the oldcollege.

So my dear readers, as you. roaralong towards home let your thoughtswander to scenes of the past. Pic-ture yourself as back in those timesof tedious journeys and perhaps thepassage of time will not seem so irri-tatingly slow.

COLBY DEBATERSMET TUFTS MONDAY

Lemoine and Finch Repre-sent Colby

Last Monday afternoon at 3.30,Colby college met Tufts on the plat-form of debate considering the ques-tion , Resolved, That the several statesshould enact legislation providing forcompulsory unemployment insuranceto which the employer shall contrib-ute. The Colby affirmative was madeup of Harold Lemoine and Robert..'inch. Charles Geary and EdwardYearns upheld the negative for Tufts,Jhis interesting non-decision debatevvas presided over by Sumner P. Millsj f the deba ting squad.

The affirmative presented the pres-ent deplorable conditions existing inthe world today and contended thatdie fundamental cause for unemploy-ment is the lack of purchasing power.They intended to continue this pur-chasing power by installing compul-sory state-wide insurance. This wouldtend to level the peaks of the busi-ness cycle thus making more -uniformliving conditions throughout the coun-try. Tlioy also showed the inade-quacy of charitable organizations to

¦' In women's chapel, on March 14,Doctor Robert Dexter of the Ameri-can Unitarian Association gave an in-teresting talk on the critical, social,and economic conditions in the coalmine districts of West Virginia.' He said that the greatest problemof unemployment brougbt about bythe decreased demand for soft coal,was the result of substitution of oilfor coal for marine purposes, in-creased use of water power, the re-suit of scientific study of coal, andthe increase of mechanization. Hefurthermore stated that shut off fromany outside contacts, the inhabitantsof the districts are unable to obtaina living in other fields of work; hencestarvation and lack of clothing iscommon among the larger families.

At present the Quakers are doinga great deal to help better the livingconditions in the mining districts, andDr. Dexter pointed out that sincemodern industry in its strife for suc-cess entirely disregards the humanelement, it is our duty to do all -wecan to accelerate the betterment ofconditions.

(Editor's Note: We received thefollowing letter from the Hotter, andhave decided to print it in its entirety.—R. B. A.)^fe Dear Ralph:—

A slow, jerkbig train speeding thruthe night to Watsrville may seem liiea funny place to write a Plotter's Col-umn, but, althc out of touch with tiegossiping angle of the Colby campus,the week-end cables that I have re-ceived at my Commonwealth Avemiepent house from my many assistan-ts,have allowed me to keep a thumb onthe pulse of the Blue aad the Gray.Tell you about it soon.

But I've got a new idea, Ralph.You know I have to watch the columnpretty carefully for fea_ it will gostale on me, and to put some new Lifeinto it, tell me what you think of thispoetry angle: Kay King- was a girlfrom Augusta. . . Her eyes had adelicate lusta . . . To Colby she came. . . and she will win fame . . . Forshe has half the men all ailusta . . . .Get the idea? Or something like thismaybe: To call for a girl . . . atMary Low . . . A guy's gotta have. . . A pile of dough . - . Or, ho-w'sthis: A girl you'll like . . . is GinnyHaight . . . She never fails . . . tokeep a date ! That ought to go overbig with you. And try this over onyour musical saw: You'd better bewary of Do Donnell . . . Her smilecould send . .. a man to—heaven !Or this: A girl you'll worry about . . .is Cleo Tuttle . . . The things shedoes . . . Are much too subtle! Andfinally: A girl you'll like . . . is sweotLib Swanton . . . She's got the stuff. , . that you'll be wantin'! Well, howdo you like it? No? Ho-hum, let itgo! Olney Anthony, my travellingcompanion , didn 't think much of iteither. Ev Cole sent nae the follow-ing:

© HODGDON'S HOLLY H O C KHOP: The dimly lighted girls' gymwas the scene of another of the Colbyundergrad frolics last Sat. eveningwhen the sophomore co-eds enter-tained their partner addicts of rhymeand rhythm -with a few flings on thehazardous floor. The gym itself wasdecorated with red-green-blue andpink streamers with the same assort-ment of colored bulbs interspacingthen, while the walls were bankedwith an attractive imitation of a hol-lyhock garden . . . but enough of

landscape . . . In the receiving linewe shook palms with Pete Mills—those of us who couldn 't escape inthrough the other door . . . StanClement and Marion Ross found nofault with the over-waxed floor . . .Al Vose and partner danced senti-mentally . . . the Caddoo-Dignamcombo was smooth . . . and we don'tknow yet whether Perkins came withMalcolm or Caddoo . . . also noticedWatson and "Skip" Flood with MaineCo-eds . . . Irv. Malsch. and his bigmoment . . . We don't blame you fornot -wanting to swap a dance Packertbut supposing some of us want to doa little course crabbing in Geology?. . . Keno Rolfe and Bertha addedthe finishing touches to a successfulaffair by making a grand Slam. . . .we're purposely omitting theMaestro'scustomary, after the dance dirt forthe benefit of C. T. and P. R., but wecan't fail to give credit to Mary Ellenfor the success of a huge evening.@ And here, Ralph, is where I gointo my act, taking a wild guess atwhat's probably happened during thepast few days. Stay with me!

DID YOU KNOW! That Mary Lowhas gone the Deke's one better andhave both a Black List and GigoloList ? . . . That Dot Campbell lias tostand on a chair to answer the phone?. . . That the girls haven't found outyet who my M. L. spy is—and tliey'reway off the track ? . . . That six peo-ple told me that Libby forgot, andwore his pin? . . . That Elsie Maun-der and Evelyn Taylor checked outfor C. G.? . . . That the co-or-ds aretaking advantage of Leap Year—andphoney nickels? . . . That Geo. Mac-Donald is seeking a beautiful co-edfor the Zete formal? Qualifications:Chi O, five feet two, platinum blonde,Brave!! . . . That he's in the wrongsection of the country ? . . . . Thatthere is a most interesting story tellerat Foss Hall, and I may give younames some day? . . . That NitaViles confirms a rumor started bySarah Toab e (unconfirmed) that sinceBates has decided to run their Prexyfor Gov., Brit Webster is backing JimBlok for President on the Socialistticket? , . . That we'll have to giveour Congrats to Don Taylor, and ourbest wishes to Mary Barbar^a . . .That Pussy Foot Williams and thatcharming Judge's daughter from thewestern section of the city may landat city hall for contempt of court? . .That a fellow is rushing his room-mate's gal ? . . . That Sug and EddieRick weren't allowed to dance morethan three dancea Sat nite? . . .Haw ! . . . That Frosh Berry'smeasles are the cause of some co-ordslosing their school-girl complexion,. . . That with the approach ofspringtime and all that's sweet andbeautiful, a daily figure basking inthe warm sun at the corner of Mainand Temple is Henry P. "Dizzy" Ran-court? . . . That since one girl itcalling her boy-friend "Angel," thingshave been heavenly ? . . . That we'regoing to call Mary Smith "Miss At-lantic City" because she has a boredwalk? . . . That if you redly likethose poems, how's this: A.nnoyinggirl . . . Verna McGoe . . . Doesn 'tgive . . . a hang for me I . . . Thatfrom his remarks we may assume thatDr. Parmenter forgot all about Chem-istry when ho was in Paris. . . andspeaking about Paris, Georgie Mann ,the old pretzel bender , thinks he isgoing to lease a studio there nextyear . . .
