dnuor (ElaHH listnru Behold, a voice came unto me. saying, Write. And I said, O ! Mighty one, what shall I write? And the voice said unto me. Write the history of the Seniors, for the good that men do shall live after them. And it came to pass that in the eighty-seventh year of McKendree, the class of nineteen nineteen reached the Land of Promise, the campus of the college. And there were many giants dwelling within walled rooms; they were awful and formidable, and the class of nineteen nineteen were sore afraid. They said unto each other. How shall we draw nigh unto these professors? How shall we survive the terrors of registration? In fear and trembling they passed through the ordeal and remained in the Land of Promise. In the same year the noble P o ver began to reign and he ruled with great wisdom and did that which was pleasing in the sight of his classmates. And nineteen nineten abode in peace, and sought wisdom and obtained prosperity. In the second year, Bovver, the noble, reigned no more and Chapman, the Hoosier, ruled in his stead. And lo. the sophomores rose early and were zealous in the pursuit of pleasure. And their neighbors above them and below them were great ly troubled. And the third year Chapman continued to reign and they waxed mighty. There arose in the land an awful conflict and the Freshmen struggled against the Sophomores. Then nineteen nineteen came unto them and aided them against the Sophomores and the Seniors who were banded together against the Freshmen. And the righteous cause of the Juniors and Freshmen was triumphant. In the same year many of the class of nineteen nineteen went forth to the Great World War, and they did not return, while the class dwelt in the Land of Promise. In the fourth year of their sojourn the class of nineteen nineteen sought Dolley. a mighty man and strong, to rule over them. He was wise and good and reigned judiciously among them. And the deeds of nineteen nineteen are many and their wisdom is great. Come unto them, ye who thirst for knowledge, ve who long for edification of the soul, ye who would learn of the mysteries of science, for, truly, they have sought diligently after knowledge and have become wondrous wise. So endeth the works of the Senior Class and their fame shall continue forever. AVIS SPRAGG.
