Excerpt from Americana, Vol. 5: American Historical Magazine; January, 1910-December, 1910 Pine Tree State this youthful institution stands unique among the educational institutions of New England. Many, many moons ago a grand old Indian chief known as the blue-eyed, pale-faced, high-browed Orono, inhabited the region.

Since the days of the old chief the transforming touch of enlightened civilized life has wrought most wonderful changes in his ancient haunts. The ideals of the savage, conciliating as they may appear through the mists of the past, gave way to higher ideals. A town was formed in common with many others; there settler-citizens founded and fostered the common schools; the ideals of the common schools developed the secondary school and these ripened into the college and the university.
