THE STATE COLLEGIAN
Association Notes.
The Y. M. C. A. formally opened
its year's work with the reception to
new students given in the armory
last Friday night. The object of
this reception is to
.acquaint the new
men with the various branches of
student activity in which they are
invited to participate.
The associatio 1 is greatly handi
capped by the absence, at this the
opening of the year, of the General
Secretary, Mr. F. E. Wilber, who
has been detained'at his home by a
painful accident and will not be able
to resume his duties as secretary
before October first at the earliest.
The various committees, however,
recognize that the burden of the
work has passed to them, and their
activities show their determination
to get the work well started in spite
of his absence.
The Membership and Bible Study
committees have both planned ex
tensive campaigns and the deter
mination with which the men are
going to work is indicative of good
results.
Next Sunday evening will be
given over to a Bible Study rally,
and as soon as the enrollment is
complete, books will be secured and
groups organized. It is the inten
tion of the association to continue
the gruup plan which nas proven so
successful in past years. The
courses taken up will be explained
in the pamphlets given out by the
Bible Study committee. All who
wish to do so are invited to join one
of these Bible Study groups.
The association will conduct a
lecture and entertainment course
during the present college year, the
details of which will be given in a
later issue. For the present it will be
sufficient to say that the course as
planned is the best ever offered by
the association.
Outside speakers will be secured
from time to time through the college
year to address the meetings on
subjects of interest to college stu
dents.
The time and place of meetings
will be announced weekly in the
Collegian calendar.
The association desires to have it
clearly understood that the organiza
tion is in no sense exclusive. It is
composed of and conducted by
students, for their mutual benefit.
No one need await a personal invita
tion to join the association or any of
its activities. The rooms are for
your benefit and at your disposal
a.id the General Secretary or any of
the active members of the associa
tion will be glad to be of any possible
service to you
A Tragic Death
The friends of "Phil" Partridge,
'O7, were shocked to hear of his sud
den death near Old Orchard, Me., on
Aug. 15. He and his financee were
hastening to a ' , e at Old Orchard and
were struck by a fast train at a cross
ing on the Bcston and Maine Railroad.
When he saw that an accident was in
evitable he en , :.eavored to save his
fair companion, and although she was
severely injured, her life was spared.
His last act was one of heroism.
Partridge graduated from the Me
chanical Engineering course last June
and had bright prospects for a suc
cessful future. He was prominent
socially and a member of the Sigma
Chi fraternity. On the football field
he was a consistent worker and was
awarded the "S". His activities in
connection with the Thespians were
especially noteworthy. For two years
he took the leading part in the pre
sentations of that organization with
exceptional success. In the death of
Philips Payne Partridge State has lost
a brilliant son and a loyal alumnus.
The Freshman class organized on
Friday of last week, electing the follow
ing officers : Pres. W. D. Barnett :
Vice-Pres. B. C. Ticknor : Sec. Wm.
Wright : Treas. W. S. Glenn.
