CLASS OF 1893
The class secretary has unearthed, in the course of an early spring cleaning of his office, a bundle of the 1928 class reports. If any member of the class or other Dartmouth alumnus would care for a copy they will be sent free as long as they last.
The Secretary is continuing in the Concord capitol, where he has been off and on since 1889, with Governor Charles W. Tobey, as secretary to the Chief Executive. Turning his searchlight and telescope from the state house dome upon various sections of New Hampshire he sees:
Mrs. Samuel P. French giving an illustrated talk to the West Lebanon High School upon the Hawaiian Islands, where Sam was a school principal for a number of years.
Mr. and Mrs. Harry N. McLaren acting as chaperones at a Manchester High School dance.
Harry B. Metcalf re-elected secretary of the Newport Historical Association.
Samuel P. Hunt re-elected director and trustee of various banks and insurance companies.
Rufus H, Baker elected delegate to the diocesan convention from St. Luke's Episcopal church, Concord.
George B. Dodge re-elected a director of the New Hampshire Children's Aid and Protective Society.
We have had calls at the state house from Judge Edwin B. Weston of Derry, who was increasing the funds in the state treasury by his automobile registration fees, and from Colonel Charles A. French of Laconia, who was trying to get some money out of the state treasury for his municipality in the way of roads and bridges.
Another very welcome caller was Charles E. Cox, the venerable but vigorous father of Guy, Louis, and Channing, Dartmouth alumni, and of Walter, the famous horseman. He watched the legislative proceedings with interest, for in his active days he knew as much about New Hampshire politics as his sons do about those in Massachusetts.
Remembering that Guy wrote the first musical setting for Bill Segur's Dartmouth song, we were sorry to see that he was practically ruled out of the $1,000 prize competition for a new Dartmouth song by the fact that Channing is one of the board of judges.
A letter from Billy Jarvis, written from a West Virginia railroad junction, says that he is starting his Alumni Fund campaign once more. He does not add, "And, gosh, how I dread it!" for Billy, like the Secretary, gets much pleasure out of being in even correspondence contact with the fellows of the class. But let's make the way easier for him this year than it has been in the past.
Here is a letter from Dr. E. W. Stockwell, right at the top of the Readers' Column of the Boston Posl, discoursing with eloquence and erudition about the proper price for hunting and fishing licenses in Massachusetts.
Secretary, 104 North State St., Concord, N. H.
