Gently given to the college 4 marble

ton. 1t has been placed on Il pedestal
in the southwest corner of the Sculp-
turc Hall in the Walker Art building,
of which it is L distinguished orna-

There is great deal of interest mere
today to know what train Commander

Sydney to New York. 1t is thought
more than prGhahic that hr will pass
through on the SIS =. NJ. train and il
ii can he learned that such is TIL" ease.
il is likely that the student body viii
be at the depot to greet BnwdOin'S dis
tnguishcd son. on his return from his
latest and greatest achievement.
Commander Pcary is very loyal to the
college and I'll BoWdoin students feel
very intimate relations with him. The
affair. i: il takes place. will he in
formal in every sense. but will hc non"
the less real as a tribute to the great
CA:'lOrtr.
