EDWIN C. MILLER, Sec., WAKEFIELD, MASS.

The thirtieth annual meeting of the Class of '79 was held at the Hotel Brunswick on Saturday evening, Jan. 15, 1910. The affair was an informal one, there being present John W. Cabot, Fred S. Coffin, Alan V. Garratt, Henry G. Hall, Edwin C. Miller, Professor William H. Pickering, Frank G. Stantial and Sullivan A. Sargent. Interesting letters were read from Colonel Richard H. Morgan, Arthur M. Waitt, of New York; Professor R. W. Lodge, Wilson Eyre, of Philadelphia; Major Philip Little, of Salem; A. B. Harlow, of Pittsburg; Louis P. Howe, Fred H. Lane, of New York, president of the class; George F. Riggs, of Carlisle, Pa.; W. W. Macfarlane, of Chester, Pa.; Walter S. Alien, of Boston, and Horace J. Howe, of New York. Other members of the class heard from were: S. T. Braley, of Rutland, Vt.; Professor George H. Barton, J. F. Batchelder, of Hood River, Ore.; W. O. Dunbar, Altoona, Pa.; Charles L. Fellows, Harry B. Fullerton, of Long Island; C. S. Gooding, W. S. Hazeltine, D. C. Hemingray, of Covington, Ky.; Walter Large, of New York; F. B. Knapp, of Duxbury, Mass.; W. H. Rea, Pittsburg, Pa.; Vibe K. Spicer, of Chicago; and Alfred T. Waite. The following officers were elected for the year 1909 and 1910, twenty-nine ballots being cast: president, Richard W. Lodge, Boston; vice-president, Alien M. Jenks, New York; secretary, Edwin C. Miller, Wakefield, Mass.; business committee, Louis P. Howe, Marlboro, Mass.; Richard H. Morgan, Plymouth, Mass. — Harry H. Campbell is still at Hotel Chalfonte, Atlantic City, where he has been for some time past, trying to regain his health. He is able to do considerable mental work, but cannot yet leave his bed. He would be glad to hear from any of his old friends. — Philip Little, of Salem, held an exhibition of his oil paintings at 103 Newbury Street, Boston, on February 7-21, inclusive. His work as an artist has been very successful, and his pictures have put him in the front rank of young American artists. — Professor R. W. Lodge has been spending the winter on the Pacific coast, the early part in Seattle, Wash., and later at Los Angeles, Cal. — Colonel R. H. Morgan sailed for Europe in January, not to return to this country until June. — Harry B. Fullerton, who has charge of the agricultural experimental station on Long Island, has been delivering a few illustrated lectures before agricultural societies of Massachusetts and elsewhere. Without doubt he is one of the best authorities in the United States in the field of experimental agricultural and horticultural work, and has done some wonderful things at his station on Long Island. — Vibe K. Spicer wrote the secretary in January as follows: "I am in Montreal, the pole is within reach and the Class of '79 shall be the first to examine my notes. Put no reliance in Cook or Peary." Nothing further has been heard from him, however.
