ones - -and take up much more room. Let not this be said of you. Children, there is but one thing that makes us regret to leave and that is that you are on the wrong road. Take our advice and at all times wear tennis shoes so that the office carpet may not be entirely destroyed. Dr. Hawkins pa- tience may wear out with his carpet. Another thing, be very careful of your associates and avoid late hours. Re- member, a man is known by the company he keeps. Although it is fitting and proper for you to be ever courteous and cordial to the Juniors who enter next September you will find that you must hold them at arms length just as we have had to do with you, or you will find them overstepping and you will have the un- pleasant task of showing them back to their proper places, — the task we have had so many times. You may need to give them moral support, but never phy- sical support. I might suggest also that you prepare your orations during the pleasant sum- mer months to hand in for corrections the very day school opens. Dr. Kitchell corrects and recorrects, as do others. And those cf you who are taking commercial work, do not worry about Gregg. The first six lessons are all that are necessary, then be ready and watchful for the speed tests. They come at an hour when you least expect them. Of course it cannot be expected that you will make the brilliant record we have made — 60 words at the end of the first week in Gregg ! ! ! Then there are those little dai- lies in History of Ed . Just get 10 on each one and you ' ll be safe. Oh, I could enumerate a thousand different things that it would be well for you to know and which might save you many anxious moments, but time will not permit. After all, they say experience is the best teacher, so I will have to leave it at that. Just let me urge you once again to be ever mindful of the Juniors un- der your care — they imitate — it is a characteristic of Juniors, so always set a good example. And, by the way, Junior friends, before we depart we leave with you this key, which will unlock to you the door of knowledge and wisdom. This key will also throw light upon Senior secrets and upon many other things which, to you, have hitherto been darkness. Guard and keep it safely, for if once lost dire re- sults will follow. Now let it work. Juniors, thou art afoot, Thou ' llt take what course thou wilt !

Charge to the Juniors MILDRED G. BULLOCK J4 C RIENDS, Seniors, Juniors lend me your ears, I come to warn the juniors not to praise them. Upon me has devolved the awful task of advising and warning this would- be illustrious class of 191 5. I say awful, for when I think of the advice they need as shown by their conduct during the past year I sigh at the stupendous task be- fore me. As 1 look into their faces, blank as they are, 1 wonder if their minds are able to drink in and assimilate all that I may say. And yet, upon the face of all this, these Juniors are presumptuous enough to think they ought to be in our place. But they can have only a vague comprehension of the advantage of our position. They will look at things more wisely when they have had the benefit of one year as Seniors. Their crude ideas must therefore be taken charitably. It is a peculiar characteristic of the Juniors to try to be at the head of all things. The Seniors have never held a meeting but that the Juniors held two. There seems to be only two ways of solving this problem. Either they were congratulating them- selves over their choice of a president and wished to have him up for inspection as often as possible, or, they all wanted an opportunity to speak, having such re- markable opinions of themselves. If the former is the case, Junior friends, beware, for your dear president will become incapacitated and will be unable to enter the Senior Class next year; if it is the latter, it is useless to say anything. The Junior class, as a whole, is quite ordinary, but there are a few remark- able exceptions, for example, our dignified and scholarly friend, Mr. Emmett Corrigan — there is no advice I could give to him. Mr. Charles Farnsworth is doubly interesting to us because he is remarkable not only physically and mentally but also, sentimentally. But beware of him, whoever this may concern, for re- member the girl is soon engaged who is unfortunate enough to fall in the way of this poor dejected Junior who has been jilted. Also keep a sharp lookout for Clarence Guthrie. I find, too, that there are a few bright lights among the girls but 1 may not take time to mention their splendid characteristics, lest I waste my opportunity to give the much needed advice. Now as you enter the Senior Class you will no doubt feel a marked change in your lives and look back upon the little idiosyncrasies of Junior life with horror. But do not think of these too much or you may go back to your old ways. Look ever upward and follow as closely as you possibly can in the footsteps of the Sen- iors who have gone before you. I sometimes fear for you, for we all know that habits once formed and imbedded as deeply as yours, are hard to break. There is however, hope for you in hard study. Work night and day. You may think you are tired but remember it takes a mighty conscientious student to be able to tell whether he ' s tired or whether he ' s lazy. Lazy students are as worthless as dead
