Class of 1904
If you want to entertain the local Grange, the Mens Club, a group of your employees, or have a neighborhood party which you can enjoy thoroughly, get an evening's supply of the new Dartmouth films. There are three sets—l. Three reels of carnival, winter sports, and Outing Club doings, a. Five reels of year round activities "Life at Dartmouth." 3. Three reels of the past highly successful football season, completely titled. These films supervised by experts, are a great improvement over former Collge films, and only nominal rental fees are charged.
This New Haven, Conn., item in the New York Herald-Tribune of December 27 th has special interest for us. "Mr. BruceWalter Sanborn of St. Paul, has announcedthe engagement of his daughter, MissHildegarde Eunice Sanborn, to Mr. Frederick Brewster, son of Mr. and Mrs. Frederick F. Brewster of this city and Dublin,New Hampshire. Miss Sanborn is a graduate of the Summit and Finch Schools. Sheis a granddaughter of the late Judge andMrs. Walter H. Sanborn and of Mrs.Thedora L. Shurmeier and the late Mr.Shurmeier all of St. Paul. Mr. Brewster wasgraduated from the Choate School and isnow attending Dartmouth. He is a nephewof Mme. Bincent Ardenghi of ChateauBeauregard, France." I do not know Mr. Brewster's class but we shall look forward to meeting these young people at some commencement period in Hanover. Very likely Spike may show up too. That would be a rare and pleasant occasion.
The Alumni Council is making a survey of existing methods of distributing information about the College to boys who may be interested in becoming Dartmouth undergraduates. They will be glad to have any suggestions you may have.
Had a fine New Years letter from Jig Leverone. He likes the idea expressed in this column in December relative to his country home. "You suggest it as a possiblesite for a 1904 pilgrimage. You arrange thepilgrimage and the place will be availableat any time. It would be great if I couldget the gang and their families there. It isnow your move." Doesn't that show a fine blend of New England and Western hospitality? Thanks, Jig, we shall do our best. He says further: "About three weeks agoI made a hurried trip to the Pacific Coast.Spent a couple of days in San Franciscoand as I was going up in the elevator inthe St. Francis Hotel one evening, foundthat the other occupatit of the elevatorstared at me and finally said, 'you don'tknow me.' It took me several seconds torealize that it was our old classmate, LesterGibson. He was attending a NationalRoadmakers Convention at San Francisco.It was nice to have a little chat with him.He looked well and happy and asked me toextend his best to the gang. Regardless ofwhere you go our class seems to be represented. Interpolating the words of our goodold (Jigs History and English courses havebeen in the melting pot) English Professor, Eric Foster, 'The sun never sets on1904.'"
I am glad to tell you all that Bill Gray has been perambulating about Dicks House a bit, and I hope this is definite proof that he is making steady and positive progress.
Ralph Sexton is being taught what to eat and made to like it by Dr. Jordan, Pen Mowers better half. We all know the result accomplished by Mrs. Mower on the aenemic undersized Robinson boy a few years ago, and you may expect to see Ralph's cheerful smile on a 5-10 hundred and seventy-five-pound frame when you meet him again.
At a Mass Meeting of the Greater Boston Emergency Peace Campaign, Miss Maude Royden of London, England, gave an address on America's Possible Leadership for Real World Peace, at Tremont Temple, Boston, January 13th. Among the dinner guests at a testimonial given Miss Royden at the Womens City Club before the Meeting were Matt and Mrs. Bullock.
