told of the progress the class had
made through the three years they
mad been In college and how they an
ticipated in taking the places of the
graduating class when the fall term
came around again. The various
achievements of the class of 1925 were
extolled by Miss Gordon in her ad-
dress. Mollie r. Settler of Fairfield
read pleasing poem which she wrote
for the occasion, litter which the mill
tary band rendered a selection. The
history Of the men of the class of 1926

ing and unique manner. Mr.. Edmunds
likewise told of the achievements
which the men of the junior class had
made during the three years they had
been students of Colby and their an
ticipations in returning as seniors
next fall to carry along their good
work for the college.
The Glass Day grafton was given by
Donald E. Sprague of Boothbay Har-
Dor, in which he made a scathing de-
nunciation of the fraternity politics
which the college has suffered. Mr..
Sprague's address was full of fire and
he earnestly appealed to the students
to completely do away with all of the
chickering's for the good Of the college.
The main address of the morning
was given by Everett J. Colcord. rs,
Of Brooklyn, N. Y, the guest of honor
of the junior class. Mr.. Colcord's ad-
dress in part was as follows:
The final part of the mornings pro-
gram was the awarding of class gifts,
which was done by Gilbert l.. Earle of
Lisbon Falls in most clever and
unique manner. Various humorous
comments were made upon the MEM
bers of the class of both divisions and
ridiculous presents were bestowed
upon them by Mr.. Earle. The speech
and presents which the Junior gave
were received with a great deal of
merriment on the part Of the mem
bers of the class and the audience
The marshal Of the class was Ellis
F. Parmenter Of Waterville and he
was assisted by the students marshals
and ushers, all of whom were dressed
in the regulation academic garb.

minister seeks to give his ideas OF

thoughts like those of the God his
