Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Manion of Gardner, Mass., announce the birth of a daughter, Joan Patricia, May 4, 1922.

John Mathes was elected president of the Dover Chamber of Commerce at its annual meeting' held in May.

Judge Davis was elected to the building committee of the new town hall which is planned for the town of Plymouth. His name occurs frequently in any of the civic movements of that community.

Dr. J. B. Woodman of Franklin, N. H., was named chairman of the standing committee on public health and instruction at the annual meeting of the New Hampshire Medical Society, which was held at Concord in May.

D. Bradlee Rich has been elected a director of the National Association of Real Estate exchanges. This brings him in contact with many of the largest operators in real estate throughout the country. It is a well deserved honor, which comes as a result of many years of hard and unselfish work.

Arthur S. Roberts has been spending the spring in Europe. He expected to leave in February, but on the morning of the day he was to sail he was taken with an acute pain in the intestines, and was operated upon that evening. The operation was a severe one, but entirely successful. He spent a month in Paris and a week at Tours, and then left for England. He was at Oxford when the races were held. He visited most of the literary shrines in England and all the famous schools. His impression was that the English scholboys work a great deal harder than ours and take their sports more soberly. The effect of the war was still very apparent in the number of maimed soldiers in France and in England.

The annual round-up of the class of 1900 was held at Old Orchard, Me., on Friday and Saturday, June 9 and 10. The class were the guests of Mr. and Mrs. N. H. Barrows. Thirty-four men attended, coming from all parts of New England. President Hopkins, who received a degree at the New Hampshire State College the following Monday, favored us with his presence. The first event on the program was a shore dinner, which Nat Barrows gave at one of the famous places near Old Orchard. The next morning a golf tournament was held in a downpour of rain. The class took lunch at the Saco Country Club. The great event of the whole outing was the evening at Nat Barrows' home, where buffet lunch was served. The class did their best at singing, but it is fair to admit that their success with the lunch itself was more impressive. The headquarters were at the Vesper Hotel, where two entire floors were occupied exclusively by 1900 men. It is agreed that this is one of the most successful, if not the most successful, outdoor round-up that the class has held. There were more present, and in spite of the downpour of rain every -event went off according to schedule. It was a particularly pleasing thing to have the president there, and listen to his story of recent development of the College. The class voted their entire support to his program, and expressed their desire to cooperate in every way in making it successful.

Secretary, Natt W. Emerson, 10 State St., Boston
