Planting the Ivy.
AS soon as the Presentations"
were over. the Junior class marched
to the south side of Hubbard hall, the
College library where the impressive
exercises of the planting of the ivy
were observed in the usual manner.
During the planting of the ivy the
entire Junior class sang the following
Ivy Ode which had been written to
the tune of Fair Harvard" by the
class odist, James Bailey Allen of Mt.
Desert Me-:
With joy and sorrow comingled we
meet
At last on this long looked for day.
Yet cen tho our sadness is not without
Let it not DER our spirits gain sway:
For altho now three years have so
pleasantly passed
ana a put one more looms now into view.
Yet with fond recollection throughout
our whole lives srsf
We shall cherish their memories true.
To our, dear Alma Mater. We tenderly
plant Nt,
BY these walls green ivy so fair
Which to Bowdoin, our Mother we bear.
As Its r0otletsi spread deep and tena-
ciousiy cling feEs
Pressing deeper and deeper each year.
Even so may our love for o.d Bowdon
IL grow firm
And ne;er become withered and scar.
The planting of the ivy finished the
Junior exercises. and Immediately at
ter. the crowd assembled in the Chap
ell where the Seniors were gathered
at chapel exercises for the last time.
The entire service, and especially the
Senior marching led by the marshal,
Robert Martin Iawlis of Houlion,
was very impressive President Hyde
spoke tender words to them, for it
was the last time that he would ever
address that class at regular college
devotional exercises. This service
closed the exercises of the day.
