CLASS OF 1889

The following ten men of '89 were present at the 53rd Annual Reunion, Mess, and Campfire of the Boston Alumni Association, February 15: Allen, Anderson, Bartlett, Blakely, Cutler, Doane, Hale, Noyes, Robie, Wellman. The annual meeting of the Rocky Mountain Association, of which Oliver S. Warden is president, was held at Helena, Montana, November 17. Warden writes as follows: "We had a little Dartmouth dinner over in Helena the other night. There were only six of us. Two of the usually faithful had gone to the war. Frank Hazen was held at home by some business that would not let him away at that time. We had the governor of the state for guest. We had a good eat and a nice talk."

The November issue of the monthly publication, Educational Administration and Supervision, contains an article by Chester B. Curtis, principal of the Central High School, St. Louis, entitled "Secondary High School Science." It is an, earnest plea for a 'radical reconstruction of the traditional methods of teaching science to high school pupils, so that the subjects may be presented in a rational and logical way, which is also an interesting and attractive and practical way, instead of the hard and repelling way they are so often presented to (or forced upon) the boys and girls in their teens.

Secretary, Dr. David N. Blakely, 53 Monmouth St., Brookline, Mass.
