THESTESPEAN 31 i i mm illinium ilium minim iiiiimii i i i i iiiinii mi , mi v h n w: a m,„ i SENIOR HISTORY In the month of September, 1918, when thirty-seven boys and girls en- rolled at Union College as Freshmen we had no idea what a high school education meant. Some of us were here just because our parents had sent us. Some did not stay all the year, but those who did stay, at the end of the year, knew something ' of what an education would mean and were en- thusiastic to come back next year. We felt that we had done something great when, by the help of our teacher, we appeared in chape] with a rousing good Literary program; at this time we adopted and sang our class song, Rowing, not Drifting. We were this year known as Sophomores. We had a large class of new- students; all seemed fully determined to do a year of good work. We next established for ourselves the custom of paying class dues and we were the first class in Union College to start a bank account. In the form of a con- test we carried on an English drive which had been handed to us from the Sophomores who preceded us. JUNIORS we are! Love. Dais) ' . Ancil. Bryant and Hugh still on the job ; the rest are lost by the wayside, though we have a large class of new- students. This year we took the responsibility of writing the College notes for the Mountain Advocate, and after several failures our notes took their place in the paper every week. We decided we could publish a paper so we put our heads to work and the ' ' Orange and Black which became a neces- sary part of our school life will go down in history to the credit of the Acad- emy class -of ' 22 at Union College. SENIORS ! We are here twenty-one in number. We have this year a hue basketball team of boys and of girls, and we are fully determined to win the pennant offered by the school. Some of our number are developing their ability for debate; we hope to win a place in State Tournament this year. We are just now ready for the next stage in preparation for our life ' s work, College; we expect every one to contribute his best to some worth)- form of service. Class Motto: Labor overcomes all difficulties. Class Colors: Blue and Gold. Class Flower : Rose. Class Song: Rowing, not Drifting. DAISY WAGERS RICKETTS.
