ASSOCIATION OF THE NORTHWEST

The 35th annual meeting of the Dartmouth Alumni Association of the Northwest was held at the St. Paul Athletic Club in St. Paul, on Monday evening, January 12. The dinner was presided over by Dr. A. C. Heath '91, president of the Association, and Dean Laycock was the guest of honor. He gave an interesting talk, and there was also speaking by Colonel Samuel Appleton (Honorary '01), and Judge A. A. Bruce of the University of Minnesota. Judge E. A. Gove of the class of 1856 gave some interesting reminiscences of his undergraduate days. The singing was led by W. H. Loveland '14, and a feature of the entertainment was the use of a reflectorscope showing pictures of Dartmouth in bygone days and "topical tips" of Dartmouth news and local matters of interest to the members. Over eighty men were present, and the meeting was a large and enthusiastic one.

At the business meeting the treasurer's report and budget for the ensuing year were read, and, a deficit in the finances of the Association appearing, the necessary amount to cover it was made up by subscription. The following officers were elected: president, R. M. Barton '04; vice-presidents, L. S. Oakes '99, B. W. Sanborn '04; secretary, H. M. Uline '11; treasurer, C. A. Bardwell '10; executive committee, S. D. Sheldon '14, P. W. Loudon '14, C. L. Swenson '15.
