President Albion w. Small. ;,

President Small acknowledged the
courtesy and in few well chosen words
would have transferred the honor to DIR.
Charles P. SmalL 'S6, as the representa-
tive of the alumni. DIR. Small, while not
accepting the honor, made witty speech,
also stating that "as each and every soci-
ETY., class and college has it's favorite son.
as Dartmouth College holds Daniel Web
ster, So we, the class of 'S6, as whole
were as a favorite son to him at whose
hands we were the last to receive diplo-
mas, and if not by him claimed as sons,
still we always feel that he stands in the
light of father to us and as a token of
our esteem, we have presented to the
college portrait Of this noble gentle
man. l allude to President Pepper"
[Great applause
: President Small introduced DR.. Pep
per. who said: ''While / have a deep
affection for the class of '96, I did not
fully realize until now the reciprocation
of this feeling. l appreciate their kind
ness and honor in their gift to the COL
lege and that the artist had some idea of
idealization. 1t grieves us all, this part
ing with one who has so ably filed the
presidents chair and brought the col
lege to its present standing. We love
him one and all and wish him Godspeed
in his new duties.'

He said: "After nearly half century
of service to this institution, which has
SO honored me, and to which I feel I
have done my duty, feel that can now
retire, always being ready to
commend this college, connect
ed with which I have
known so many men and whom have
always found ready for the right step at
the right moment.' -
DR.. Small in presenting Frederick ",
Chase of Portland spoke of him as one
of his early and student friends. Mr..
Chase said: sit is, 1 regret to state,
thirteen years since I have stood on this
spot but not because have been forget
full for have always loved Colby and it's
memories. When we leave here, it is
with the feeling that the coming wear
will see us once again, but business in
terests and unthought of duties keep us
from you. AS 1 look about I can but
see that wonderful changes have taken
place since 'S6. Colby has made great
strides since then. think that then the
college catalogue showed but fifty stu.
dents. while now 1856 are numbered there.
The standard of scholarship has been rails
ed and new and improved studies intro
duced, all of which Improvements speak
volumes for the good work of those who
