1903*

These are the last 1903 notes for this college year, for the July MAGAZINE will carry only notes of the reuning classes.

In September, 1938, the hurricane brought to an end a series of annual picnics of the class held at Musa in New London, N. H. Did I say brought to an end? Interrupted is the word. Each year since that devastating event Vic and Florence Cutter have thought of the possibility of inviting the class to spend another day with them only to shake their heads in dismay because nature and man had not had time to efface the marks left by the wind.

A short while ago a letter of invitation came to your Secretary summoning The Tribe of 1903 to Musa on Saturday, August and, including the squaws and their children and the children's papooses. All of which means that the Grandfather's Club is in existence. The invitation has been accepted with enthusiasm and now it is your turn to show your appreciation of this proffered hospitality which for years has ranked second to none.

The old cooking oven was the only thing left standing after the hurricane and the wind serving as a chimney-sweep has rendered Vic's and Florence's efforts over the fire better than ever. The flow of wisdom which always comes after ingestion of their concoctions is worth going miles to hear. Democracy at its best including freedom of speech is perhaps descriptive. Harold King's Little Sunapee lighthouse has Gonewith the Wind, but Little Sunapee still remains and aquatic facilities render enormous appetites before the dinner hour. The wild flower garden with its more than 700 varieties is finer than ever. Let us all make plans for August 2nd, which will take us to New London for one of those rare occasions which can only total too few in the ebb of life before us. "On to Musa."

Bolz French has always been doing things. This winter he went to Florida to store up strength for the class fund drive. Naturally he took along the golf clubs and now reports the much sought after hole-in- one. Bolz says, for your benefit, the fundamentals for such a performance are: 1— Luck, 2—Concentration. Wonder if we couldn't use these fundamentals in getting Bolz up to Musa on August 2nd?

Ned Kenerson has moved his Ginn 8c Cos. into more commodious quarters from Ashburton Place to the Statler Bldg., Boston. Late in mentioning this but it may save some Potholesker a trip on to Beacon Hill.

Charlie Hall, the new rector of the Episcopal church in Amesbury, Mass., is now residing at 55 Sparhawk St.

The opportunities during the career of President Hopkins for expressing our appreciation of his splendid services have been few for most of us. Words fail to express that appreciation in full. A great opportunity to make it possible for him to further the approach to his ideals lies in participation in this year's 25th Anniversary Fund. Your participation will mean joy to his heart.
