CLASS OF 1900
June, 1922 Natt W. Emerson

Ten men from the class of 1900 attended the funeral of R. T. L. Lewis, which was held at his home in Everett. Mass., April 11. Edson Barker came down from Plymouth. The body was taken to Boothbay, Me., which was the ancestral home of the Lewis family. See obituary notice in another column.

The funeral of Howard M. Tibbetts was held at his home in Hanover, April 14. Professor C. D. Adams conducted the services. Charlie Proctor, L. B. Richardson, and Perry Fairfield were among the bearers. The interment was in the Dartmouth cemetery. See notice in obituary column.

The attached review of Antiques by Tom Drier will be of interest to the class, because it is written from the standpoint of both literary appreciation and personal interest: "Anything new always interests me. Therefore it was with a distinct esthetic thrill that I looked over the initial issue of the new magazine, Antiques. This publication, which was launched in January, is issued in Boston and edited by my genial friend, Homer Eaton Keyes. I understand that it has been successful from the start. This is not surprising. Keyes KNOWS antiques, is an entertaining writer and an editor of long experience. The magazine is produced by the Atlantic Printing Company. It is one of the best magazines they have ever turned out—I think it is the handsomest magazine ever produced in Boston. The typographic dress, by Lew Gandy—ancient Caslon typereflects the character of the publication, and the beautiful presswork gives to the illustrations a clearness and sharpness found only in high-grade work."

William E. Howard, our volatile historian of freshman days, has been located in Chicago. It used to be our practice to send his mail to the Crown Cork and Seal Company of Baltimore, and then it would make the tour of their various offices. Mr. Harry Hutchins has located Bill. He is with the William Zelosky Company, real estate, Conway Building, Chicago.

Mr. Hutchins further reports that he himself is connected with the Board of Local Improvements of the City of Chicago. His home address is still 2128 Warren Ave. We infer that this Board is located at the City Hall. Mr. Hutchins' letter in reference to these things is most interesting, but not capable of reproduction in the MAGAZINE as a whole. He does, however, ask if any plans are contemplated for the 25th reunion. His inquiry is as follows: "When starts the campaign to secure attendance at the only fitting function which may be embellished by Commencement 1925 ?"
