numbers were inadequate to fill the vacancies of those who left. But, notwith- standing our loss, we toiled on, finding real pleasure each day in our work. We had very little to do with society this year, because we thought it would be a hindrance in performing our duties, but, at the conclusion of the Sophomore ex- aminations, which were distinctly literary and oratorical, we did engage in that glorious and magnificent reception given at the conclusion of this occasion, which was the crowning event of our Sophomore year. When we reached the Junior Class, we thought, of course, that we should have easy sailing to the end, but alas ! this was the busy year for us. We were facing a great many new duties in a serious way. We had lost that characteristic sense of importance of the Sophomore and had taken a more sober view of life and things. This year we won the trophy baseball cup. pjaseball, however, was not our only sport. We had a basket ball team, which never lost a game to any class. On the gridiron, having ranked at the top, it was also one of our num- ber this year who won the tennis championship to represent Wofford in the State contest. After three years of hard work, we have entered upon our last year. We realized that grave responsibilities were resting upon us, and we assumed such an air as becometh dignified Seniors. It is not our purpose to exaggerate or dwell at too great length on the fame of the Class of 1910. An unusually large number of its members have made enviable records, while the work of the class as a whole has been characterized by faithful and conscientious devotion to duty. Our uniform good behavior, our continuous application to daily tasks imposed, has evoked not only the confidence and admiration of the Faculty, but very naturally the envy of every class in college. We number forty-five strong. We are a composite, as usual, of various ele- ments, not all scholars, not all sloths, but our average is far better than usual. For athletics we have manifested no passionate fondness, nor on them have we spent disproportionate time or energy. Still, a comparison of our men and their record, with the achievements of our contemporaries and predecessors, will not result to our discredit. While we realize that a man should be physically, as well as mentally, strong, we find just cause for pride that the mine of science, of art and of literature has proven more attractive, and the appropriating of their treasures has engaged more of our time, at the same time affording us deeper stirrings of delight than either the gridiron or the diamond. During our Senior year we have witnessed the erection of a commodious Hbrary, the best equipped in the State, and before we finish the year ' s work a dormitorv will have been already begun. Not only does our presence count for progress on this campus, but our deportment, suffice it to say, doth become a Senior grave. So, as we approach the final day of parting, we look back upon the course we have run as neither discreditable to our predecessors nor a cause of reproach to our successors. In spite of any trouble or discouragement we may have ex- perienced this y ar, it has been our happiest and most pleasant year. We have been brought closer to each other, and it is with sadness, mingled with gladness, we meet here for the last time, for we know that we shall never meet again as a tmited class. Let us, then, in going out into active, thrilling, vibrating life, quit ourselves as men who will bring success to ourselves, laurels for our class, and honor for our Alma Mater. ■ J. K. DAVIS, Historian.
