A MOMENTOUS OCCASION.

Only with the lapse of time and the near approach of June, 1917, will the present Freshman class realize the significance of their dinner to be held tonight. By that time the event will loom up as a unique and irreplaceable occasion. The time necessary for a feeling of class unity to become vivid has not yet elapsed and sheer lack of stimulus may well account for many men neglecting the dinner. But the upper classes know that the Freshman Dinner is one of the last things they would omit from the varied experiences of their college career.

The committee's work is done and done well, the preparations are thorough and complete, and the class of 1917 may rest assured that the trouble and expense necessary to attend will grow infinitesimal in importance as, through the rest of the course, the occasion grows more and more significant as the perspective forms about it.
