Thanks to Judge J. Frank McLaughlin, we

When the full story of what Rev. Bill Moe, Tolland, Conn., minister, is doing financially for the future of Dartmouth can be told properly, folks will marvel at how it is being done, and will realize even more completely what a fine fellow he is—but in meantime, let's grab some of his Dartmouth enthusiasm from these words in a recent letter:
"Every member of our Class is proud of our College, and we have every right to be. There is no finer college anywhere in America. I feel greatly indebted to this grand institution, and while we all love to sing the song of 'the granite of New Hampshire in our muscles and our veins,' I feel that we may be a bit slow in putting this spirit into actual operation. The College will carry a heavy financial load this coming year due to war conditions, and every Dartmouth son should rally to her aid. We have a grand class, and our class is equal to our full share of the financial needs of Dartmouth. Hail, Our Alma Mater!"
