HATS OF A COLLEGE DEAN.
DIR. Newton Lloyd Andrews OF Colgate Has
o Fine Collection.

Fue SOhectsOn.
DR.. Newton Lloyd Andrews, professor
OF Greek in Colgate University and for
many years dean Of the faculty-he isn't
dean now-has one Of the finest collections
Of hats known.
The students past and present do not
remember when Kai Gar (the Greek equiva-
lent for the words with which DR.. Andrews
prefaoes most Of his remarks) did not wear
q plug hat. His hat has remained steadily
Of q large and generous architecture. but
II has assumed variety Of hues. which
means Of course. that no has more than one.
In fact, he has dozens of them.
The hat Of winter is Of sombre and joyless
black. but as winter passes into spring
and spring Into summer the black gives
way to brown and the brown to gray and
lighter shades, until at commencement he
appears glorious In headgear Of q light
pearl tint.

wherein Greek roots and the literature
thereto appertaining chase themselves about
in we'll ordered array. He has them made
to order, and the collection 10 added to oon-
stently. for none OF the hats could be called
old.
The dramatic club was putting on a show
one year which called for beavers Of an anti
auated type. The suggestion was made
that the dean might loan some Of his hats
when the matter was put up to him he
aoquiesoed readily. but there was twinkle
In his kindly eye as he handed over half
a dozen.
The reason for the twinkle was soon
apparent. for no man could be found who
could wear one Of these hats. Even gem
erous padding did not avail. So the hats
went back with shank you kindly and
were received with ohuokle.

indeed safe when they see towering hat

He pried that king, 50 many centuries

And with him-never dreaming any

The king lay silent and said not a

The poem rushed to print and would be

This ends the story but, like that old

The moral Of the tale Is OVERRIDING.
