Dartmouth college, but some. one tells
the story of Mr. Barrett's appearance
at commencement of '99. The frater-
nities were together. the men who were
the red ribbon of the Phi Beta Kappa
occupying the position of honor. Mr.
Barrett, when he received his degree.
was not :9 Phi Beta Kappa man. In
his address he referred to the fact
that it was not necessary for a man to
obtain the Phi Beta Kappa ribbon in
order to succeed. incidentally be men-
tioned the fact that he did not depart
with the coveted ribbon.
it may have been that the Phi Beta
Kappa men did not wholly like the re-
marks of Mr. Barrett. At any rate
they passed the Word around, and When
he took his seat at the close of his
address the entli‘e fraternity rose. in
orilel mighty chorus there came this
ye :
"Who stole ‘Chuck‘ Emerson's ice
cream?"
The response. equally as vociferous.
was:
“Johnny Barrett!"
Mr. Barrett grew noticeably red as
this incident of his college career. one
that the gossips say'neariy terminated
it. abraptly.. was shouted to the big
gathering. it is told with great glee by
the boys at Hanover, how, when Dean
Emerson gave a reception one night.
Johnny Barrett crawled in through the
dining-room window and took all the
ice cream. The. escapade caused his
case to be seriously considered by the
faculty. but he remained in college and
obtained his degree.
Mr. Barrett has not nppenred before
