6 ON TiiE PICTU�ES

Edwin jay Roberts, a faculty member from 1909 to 1915, contributed more to the college and community than his competence in chemistry. He had a keen eye for the charm of the old campus and the pastoral beauty of its surroundings, plus uncommon photographic skill. The photographs of commencement activities on these pages were made from some of his high­ quali ty glass negatives. Nearly 100 of them were given to Colby by his son, John E. Roberts, profes or of chemistry at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. The Alumnus will use others from time to time. Few amateurs had better command of their Canoeing commencement week equipment in those days. "He was meticulous as becomes an analytical chemist in many habits," his son recalls. He developed, enlarged and printed his own work. Each negative is wrapped and @TI-{EF\ ffiffiES inscribed with the precise time, location and date of the scene, and with all photographic data down to the chemicals used in development. Roberts completed his Ph.D. degree, married and JlORE came to Waterville the same year to teach analytical, inorganic and elementary physical chemistry under the legendary Professor George Parmenter. " The Roberts were frequent chaperones at student dances {ilUIET ffIffiES and students were often visitors at their home," his son remembers. "He loved the outdoors, whether canoeing on rivers in Waterville or walking the shores of Lake Winnisquam in Laconia (N.H.)," where he spent much of his life. He left Colby for Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute: ".. . what a terrific change from the pleasant, unhurried surroundings of Waterville" where he "thoroughly enjoyed everything but the winters.. .." He took over a family fuel business in Laconia in 1918, but retained his interest in things scientific, books and wood-working. He died in 1968. "Perhaps in the archives of the chemistry department at Colby there is a bottle of a beamiful pink powder labelled 'Neodymium Oxalate, E.J.R.' If so, I assure you that this is of the highest purity and many fond memories of Colby are contained therein," his son writes.
