Excerpt from After Five Years: The Quinquennial Record of the Class of 1908, Princeton University One evening some three years ago, you addressed an audience in one of our eastern cities; a number of us filled the front rows. You smiled your greeting, and then prefaced your remarks by saying: "I see immediately before me a number of my old scholars. Let me assure you, ladies and gentlemen, these young men will not absorb so much of what I have to say that there will not be plenty left for all." We may have been indifferent students and our absorbing qualities may have been limited, but we were sincere in our appreciation of your teachings and in our esteem for you. In our Princeton fellowship therefore and in token of our regard, we dedicate to you, this book, our Quinquennial Record.
