SHAkESPEAREAN RECITAL.
Mrs. Jessie Eldridge Southwick to Ap
pear Here in "Macbeth."

The second in the series of Shakespeare
can recitals given under the auspices of
a committee from Colby, Coburn and the
High school. will occur next Monday
evening. Mrs. Jessie Eldridge Southwick
will give Macbeth" Mrs. Southwick is
member Of the faculty of the Emerson
College of Oratory in Boston and is re-
nowned as an interpreter Of noble litera-
ture. Although the field of her work is
varied. she deyotes her chief attention
to Shakespeare. 1t is said that in such
a play as the Merchant of Venice or
Macbeth" Mrs. Southwick attains very
rare combination of an ethereal, spirit
ual element Of extreme delicacy with &
strongly masculine and materialistic in
depreciation of such characters as Shy
lock and Macbeth. In the latter espe-
cially she has won very high Corlmenda-
ton from many sources. VIM. !. Rolfe,
the foremost Shakespearean scholar. has
expressed himself in terms Of unmixed
enthusiasm for her interpr tat:on of the
play.
The people Of Waterville will welcome
this opportunity of listening to Mrs.
Southwick. The students in particular,
who are fresh from a detailed and close
study Of Macbeth will be interested in
scrutinizing her Interpretation of this
wonderful drama of bition.

that the bout will carry with it more
than the purse and the title.
Nelson and Wolgast are well under
the required 1873 pounds rngside
weight, the champion being the heavier
by few ounces.
Betting on the result is heavy the

The committee on class reunions OF

Waterville. Me, Feb. II, 1910.
Dear Brother Alumnus:
The plan lnaugurated at Colby sever
al years ago for holding quinquennial
class reunions on commencement week
has worked admirably. Every year
many sons of Colby have returned to
greet their classmates on the old cam
pus. Under the willows, on the athle-
tic field or in the classic halls they have
together lived again in happy remem-
brance the experiences of their col
legc days.
Reunions this year are to be held by
the classes Of SIS and los. i. e. 80, 20,
%. 50 &c. OF course this does not pre-
Guide other classes from holding such
gatherings if they find it convenient
and agreeable to do so.
The committee on class reunions re-
specially suggest that you communi-
cate without delay with your class
mates and urge them to meet you in
Waterville on Tuesday and Wednes-
day, June Il and %, 1910. If you have
last the address of some of them write
to us and we will try to supply it.
The general Alumni meeting and
lunch will be held as usual at 1920 on
Tuesday noon of Commencement week.
IN Memorial Hall. Lunch tickets, so
cents each, can be procured on the spot
l MS annual gathering has grown to be
the feature of Commencement, attend
ed and heartily enjoyed by about all
that the old hall will comfortably hold.
j his is the time when the boys, both
ola ana young,-we are mostly young
on such occasions-get together and
have good time all by ourselves.
We hope to reach with this letter all
whose year of graduation dates back
IN multiples of five from 1910 May we
also hope that large proportion of
those who receive it will RESPOND in
person next June as above: Come on
