The Junior Dinner.

The annual dinner of the junior class was held last evening at the Revere House and proved a thoroughly enjoyable affair. Soon after seven o'clock about one hundred and twenty-five members of '93 sat down to an eight-course dinner which was served in the large dining room of the hotel on the first floor. B. W. Trafford, the president of the class, presided, and shortly before dessert was brought on, he introduced the toast-master of the evening, J. A. Wilder. Mr. Wilder made a short speech in his official capacity and then introduced the poet of the evening, S. F. Batchelder. After the poem, J. D. Upton responded to the "Varsity Eleven," L. A. Frothingham to the "Varsity Nine," Captain G. H. Kelton to the "Varsity Crew," and C. R. Bardeen the "H. A. A."

Then, the orator of the evening, G. K. Bell, spoke in his usual eloquent manner, and after that the following men felicitously introduced by the toastmaster, responded happily to the toasts as follows: J. H. Parker, "The Harvard Lampoon"; W. C. Nichols, "The Harvard Crimson"; A. P. Stone, "The Harvard Union"; S. M. Brice, "The Future of Ninety-three"; F. S. Converse, "Ninety-three in Music."

A number of songs by the glee club men of '93 were interspersed among the toasts, and the dinner was brought to a close by the singing of "Fair-Harvard."
