honors which these classmates have brought upon us as a class are many and varied, and we as a class have acknowledged them with gratefulness. Among the men who have earned distinction in foot- ball are: Polly Grimm, Billy Mattson, Louis Diether; Walter StoU, Hugh Bowman, Frank Coyle and Claire Bowman, in track; Stewart, Clementson, Clark, Huddle, Rihl and Ellis, in baseball; Wyckoff, Mohr, Catlin and Tiedge, in crew; Angevine, Roudebush, Hoover, Lillian Hankins, Lisa Dixon and Eva McDonald, in debate; and Roy Pinkerton, Nelson Hartson, Gertrude Mallette and Helen Ross, in literary fields. If one were to make an accurate estimate of the achievements of each person, this history would be a mere catalogue of activities. There are few members of the clasj, however, who have not gone into some college activity and made good — done his share toward making Washington an ideal university. As the time draws near when we as individuals must face the cold, hard world, we begin to philosophize upon our achievements — upon the world we are leaving and on the life of which we are soon to become a factor. The questions of What is a college? What is an education? begin to concern us. If the process of education is to make onesself larger — to push the dividing line so that as a result of communicating we make a part of ourselves all the great thoughts and systems of ideas of the world, our education has just begun. We have merely builded a foundation. The farther we remove ourselves from our present surroundings and look out upon our lives as a whole, the more we realize the sentiment phrased by Elbert Hubbard, College is only an opportunity. We have been given the opportunity of building a foundation. As a class we have accomplished great things. So have other classes. Our activities as a class have come to an end ; the responsibility now lies with the individual. Out of the four hundred Freshmen who entered in 1907, the University of Washington has been the means of producing two hundred individuals to represent her interests in the years to come. Our first two years of college were marked by activities of the class as a whole — the last two by the work of the individual. It is by the individual that the class is judged, and will be judged. Upon each of us as individuals an obligation has been placed by virtue of our graduation from this higher institution of learning, and it is not our college activities that will determine the greatness of our class — but the work of the individual members as they leave these classic halls and enter into the real struggles of life. Georgia J. MacDougall.
