What Ninety-five can justly claim is, not conspicuous and overshadowing prominence in only one phase of college life while all other lines of activity are undeveloped and crippled, but that which the world expects of college men-that of an all-round man, a man steeped not only in the classic roots of dead languages, but also having the inclination and the enthu- siasm to be in the world, and make the most of life. Accordingly, then, as a class, while we have not avoided our studies, but have always been equal to the occasion, always coming oft with the flying and glowing colors of victory and flattering success, yet we have nevertheless found time to lead the college in all its varied lines of development- notably in Athletics. ' Take, for instance, Football. It -was Ninety-five that introduced football into Colby, and that to stay. Ever since, Ninety-ive has been the backbone of the team. Indeed, it has been a Ninety-live man who has been the captain of the 'Varsity Eleven during the entire four yearsf course. To further continue the list of college enterprises in which Ninety-ive has been prominent and leading, would be superfluous and unnecessary. For Ninety-tive is conscious that she can leave her worthy and enviable record to the fair judgmeht of the classes which are to follow in her footsteps, learning from what Ninety-tive has done how to direct their college purposes and actions. And as these classes shall also in after years enter the world of action, Ninety-five will be most glad to meet them, proud that they and she were once students together at their Alma Mater, Colby University, by the shady banks of the peaceful Kennebecf' P To recapitulate our history, we might say that as freshmen, in the eyes of sophomores as green as grass, we entered upon the Colby campus, thirty-three in number, in the fall of '91, conducted ourselves with honor during our freshman year, during our sophomore year did our duty in initiating Ninety-six into the ways and customs of college life at Colby, during our junior year maintained the appropriate junior ease and gracefulness, and during our senior year have carried ourselves with due and fitting senior dignity.
