CLASS OF 1899

Theobald A. Lynch is master of the Frederic W. Lincoln Grammar School and District, Boston.

Owen A. Hoban has been nominated by Governor Cox as special justice of the First District Court of Northern Worcester, Mass.

Arthur D. Wiggin has given up his work in South Londonderry, Vt., and taken the principalship of the Danville, Vt., High School. Wig's daughter, Ruth, is in her second year at Ernest Silver's Plymouth, N. H., Normal School, while his son Harold is in his first year at Middlebury College. The boy is keen on football and basketball.

Judge William P. Meehan, for many years partner of Charles H. Donahue, died December 18, 1921, after an illness of six months.

James D. Child is now vice-consul in the American Consulate, Bordeaux, France.

The December 15, 1921, number of the Breckenridge High School Times, San Antonio, Texas, prints the name of Margaret Norton as fourth in the group of fourteen students who made an average of 95 or higher for the first quarter. There seem to be other crops besides corn that Doc Norton is expert in raising down there in the Southwest.

Ed. Nye, whose son Richard is in the present freshman class at Dartmouth, can throw some light on the debate that goes on in some quarters as to the changes that have come over the old College. The boy won a New York state scholarship, and all his friends went to other colleges, mostly in New York; but he himself voluntarily picked Dartmouth. Now as Ed through his son becomes reacquainted with things at Hanover, this is his conclusion: "All those things that made Dartmouth great to us have simply expanded; it is the same old Dartmouth magnified. And it has not grown haphazardly, but on account of wise direction."

The friends of Jim Walker, who were disturbed to hear of the loss of his home in Lee, N. H., by fire last August, will rejoice to hear the latest fact. On New Year's Day Jim and his family and friends ate dinner in a brand new home, which he describes as "in no way a pretentious abode, but a very simple, comfortable country home, with the latch string always out for any Ninety-Niner." Congratulations, Jim!

Secretary, Kenneth Beal, 55 Botolph St., Melrose Highlands, Mass.
