During the evening the great old pipe organ in the Astor ballroom WE piped merry, and sentimental airs, in- cluding i songs of Stevens. And the men of other schdoldays made merry over the songs, each clans rising in turn to voice the col- lege refrain of its day. And none of the songs were louder or more cheery than those of the class of '77. Mr. Finley spoke of the good work jof Stevens Tech, and the famed men who had been’ turned out -by the | school, and occasionally took a ely |jab at Job Hedges, who plactdly smoked his cigar and waited hie turn | for a come back. | Mr, Hedges was at his best and | was enjoyed as usual, Always clever jand eloquent and the bright particu- |lar star of the feast, the Judge last | night elected to be cpigramatic. He isn't a Stevens man, but hails from | old Princeton, Here are some of the epigrams of which he unbosomed | himself: “The test of génerosity isn’t what you give, but what you've got left.” “Character {s made by incon- veniencing yourself on behalf of somebody else,” “It’a better to do something decent and not to be discovered than to have the reputation for decency which you don’t deserve, id be nervous lest you be found out. better to have less and own it, than to have more than you're entitled to and be solicitous when a stranger speaks to you,” “I came to New York with high ideals. Now look at me. I’m Re- ceiver of street railroads—not for the money though.” “The real engineers of iife are the unknown heroes—the boy who changes his career so he may help a brother and the girl who gives up marriage to help her parents, and the other people unheralded who do something for others at the expense of their own ambition—they are the real heroes.” CONCERTS AND MUSIC.

Edward Olm- sted, who was Chief of Staff with Gen. O’Ryan when the 27th Division went down to the bord>r when the world was looking for a scrap be- tween this country and Mexico, and later went overseas and helped break the Hindenburg line.
