NEW YORK ASSOCIATION

The forty-third annual dinner of the Dartmouth Alumni Association of New York was held at the Hotel Savoy, December 11, 1906. One hundred and thirteen were present and the dinner was one of the most successful ever held by the association. The hotel with its tasteful decorations and spacious reception rooms leading to the dining hall was excellently adapted for the purpose.

The members, had a pleasant, informal meeting in these rooms before the dinner, and elected Doctor Francis Brown '70 to succeed himself as president of the association for the year 1907. Kendall Banning '02 was elected secretary, and Henry Stevens '88, treasurer.

The decorations of the dining room and the arrangement of small tables so that men of the same class might sit together seemed from the start to give a cheerful and welcome atmosphere, that continued throughout the evening. The presence of an unusually large number of the younger alumni served to break the customary formality and to keep the enthusiasm at a white heat. A double quartet of former Glee Club members rendered College songs, old and new, at intervals during the evening, and this added much to the spirit of the occasion.

Besides the speakers, there were upon the dais Bishop Talbot '70, and Professor E. F. Nichols of Columbia, whom, together with the speakers, the diners repeatedly cheered.

Doctor Brown, who presided, called on President Tuoker, the first speaker. The message of the President was received with much interest, as always, and his reference to Dartmouth as the National College struck a hearty and responsive chord.

After Doctor Tucker finished speaking a toast "To Dartmouth College and President Tucker" was drunk from the large loving cup belonging to the association.

The Hon. Henry C. Ide '68, former Governor-General of the Philippines, was the next speaker. He discussed in a very interesting way the relations of the United States to its Oriental possession.

Doctor Henry Van Dyke of Princeton referred to the common interest of Dartmouth and Princeton through the association with that university of Professor Young, Professor Gordon H. Gerould and others. Doctor Van Dyke also referred in a pleasing manner to the athletic relations between Dartmouth and Princeton, and stood as a staunch advocate of football as the proper outlet for the restless qualities of college men as against ' 'tennis, rowing, checkers, and tiddledy-winks."

Doctor E. J. Bartlett discussed clearly and very interestingly the athletic conditions in the College, both past and present.

During the dinner, Professor Gordon H. Gerould '99 read the following poem composed for the occasion:

Tonight I lisp in numbers, for the chairman frowns on prose,

Though Pegasus on metric feet most vilely halting goes

Since first he trod the pavements of Manhattan's hurried isle

And was spavined by the poets, who must write in Scribsey's style.

But I'll chant you, sons of Dartmouth, and your hearts shall strike the key,

For I'll sing the plain far northward, where the mountain winds blow free,

Where the winter meets the summer just above the lingering drift,

And the maples in autumnal splendor their crimson cones uplift.

Well you know the times and seasons, how the mountain air you drank,

When you first came o'er the river in the chariots of Hank;

How you heard across the campus ringing clear that awful cry

Of "Football! freshman! football" and you steeled your hearts to die;

How you wandered to the river by the Vale of Tempe's path;

How you won your D with glory but were flunked in freshman math.

You remember how you sang, while the campus bonfire flared,

How shadows wavered round you as the Amherst men you dared

To venture at a nameless peril about your halls to stray,

And ere you slept wrote "Do come up!" to a school chum down that way.

Nor have you yet forgotten how yon shivered out of bed,

While the chapel bell was ringing, and out of doors you sped.

You felt the cold embrace you, saw the blue of sky and snow,

And you loved the northern winter at some thirty odd below.

And twice you drove to Woodstock, and once skated up to Lyme,

And you loved it, though you swore that you wished for summer time.

But when the waking horrors of the slough of spring were past,

When the elms were bravely tasseled, and the baseball squad at last

Made all the campus vocal, and the seniors carved the fence,

While the hurdy-gurdy grinders flourished on the students' pence,

You watched the sunset fading o'er the pine-clad Norwich hills.

You wandered in the twilight and you settled mortal ills

With a classmate's arm upon you, felt that all your life began

And would end in one great bondage—once for all a Dartmouth man !

You saw the great procession sweeping southward and away

With Choate and Chase and Webster leading men of later day;

You envied not their glory but dreamed that ere your life was done

The College that you loved so well should be proud to name her son,

And when you too went southward, you bore that dream within your soul

And you played life's game the better, though perhaps you made no goal.

What though one dream be vanished now? Another leads you on,

Ascutney shines the clearer when the morning mists are gone.

Again tonight, my brothers, you have dreamed once more the dream,

Have gone the northern trail along the old familiar stream.

You have seen the mountains rise again and heard the winds that blow,

Where the stately firs are bending with the burden of the snow.

And there as when old Wheelock taught the dusky forest race,

The youth today foregather and. are set on wisdom's trace.

The spirit of an elder day in them shall live again.

For though not all be scholars we know that they are men,

It is not numbers, learning, might of brawn, or might of brain

That has made our birthright glorious, kept our honor free of stain,

But the voice that down the years has spoken clear to every heart,

"Be ye loyal men and true! Face the battle! Do your part!"

And the voice today is heard no longer thin and bodiless,

But well endowed with human wit, as all who hear confess;

For he is but the living voice, who Dartmouth's fate directs,

The leader whom we reverence, our wellbeloved Prex.
