CtaBB JE) 6tot% WHILE we were Senior Middlers we did not have many opportunities to show of how much we were capable. Our Senior Mid. spread was our first gathering, when we felt ourselves a class and bound together by class spirit. But with the beginning of the Senior year began the struggle for supremacy. The competition for the Indoor Meet and Field Day was carried on with the Senior Middlers in friendly rivalry. After an exciting combat the Senior Class won. Early in the year we gave our Senior Reception, which made us feel the dignity of our position and that we were a very important factor at Abbot. The Senior Play caused us much hard work and the denial of many hours of outdoor recreation and indoor amusement, but brought with it the greatest success and satisfaction. The Seniors ' Banquet showed our class spirit and unity. It was good fun, as well as the most important affair of the year. As a crowning event the Trustees intend to give a party for the Seniors, to which we look forward with lively interest and appreciation Our days at Abbot are nearly over, and they have been days of great pleasure. As we look back over them we see that they were more than pleasure, because we know that what we have learned will help us in that real life which we have only begun, because, after all, it is Ad vitam non ad scholam hoc discimus.
