Eva Macomber, Historian.

Miss Macomber, as historian of the
women's division, said that ii was in
the fall of the year 1909 that there
came TO Colby "a most remarkable
class
There were big girls and little girls,
tall ones and short ones, light anu
dark girls, girls of all descriptions
coming from all parts of the beautiful
State of ours to brighten the horizon
of that college land. They came from
the stern and rock bound coast they
came from the hills and lakes OF the
interior. from towns such as people
call Calais, or towns where Harmony
reigns. one even came from the north
ern potato fields of Aroostook and fell
at once with the girl from the place
where sedges grow 1t was indeed an
unusual class, not so much in point OF
numbers perhaps, though II ranked
well with those classes that had pre-
coded it and those which were walt
ing with open arms to receive l-p.e
the quality of it was what brought II
at once to a place of high consldera-
ton and esteem.
Miss Macomber declared one OF the
most exciting events of the first week
in college was the return OF feafS
from the Pole and IBIS arrival IN wa
tervile for few minutes stay. -
