oor Senior Poem The Leave-Taking Entreat lis riot to leave thee. Alma Mater, Mother dear. Send us not into the world. Far from all thy love and care. We are young, we do not know The world and all its way. We ' d remain and learn by thee. Dear Mother, let us stay. Nay, my children, do not urge me, Now my task for you is done ; Others there are waiting for me, Other works to be begun. Long I have taught and trained you For Life ' s high and greater task, My teachings may you ne ' er forget. This be the recompense I ask, Go you out into the world. All, I ' ve done for you, I can, Now I send you forth to serve, Teach and help your fellow-man. Be ye women, strong and true. Always this ideal be thine. Live a life, that watching, I May be proud to call you mine. Then, my children, fare you well. Love, our hearts together binds. Go, the blessing taking with thee Of the Mother of thy minds. -C. S., ' 16. 27

Senior Class History N September, 1912, there assembled in this College a band of lasses, young and tender. Here we nocked to begin our dream of college life. The last brick had hardly been laid before we had arrived, bag and baggage, not to mention a few very homesick maidens with tearful eyes. It was a jolly verdant Freshman Class of some fifteen girls in all the glory of ignorance and youth that bravely faced the joys and hardships of the year 1912-13. This first year was the source of great success, as in it the first seeds of knowledge were sown, and the first steps toward the goal which Ave now approach were taken. June came and with it all the glory and bliss of Sophomore wisdom. When we returned the second year it was as wise Sophomores, for as usual we had some of the true characteristics of those beings. However, this assumed vanity soon decreased and we began to realize our station and to work for that more lofty place. Some of our members began to gain prominence as students and as all-round girls, showing that the ' 16 Class had the leaders that were to be. Then came the time of Junior serenity. The laudable wisdom of last year was forever silenced in the struggle to ascend the steepest and most rugged part of our path. With firm-set minds we climbed steadily, gaining fame as we went. Our class is not only noted for its good students, but also as being alive on the athletic field. We are blessed, too, in having some musicians among our number. The close of the year found our class bearing a great many of the responsibilities, which they have continued to do with much skill. Now we have come to that longed-for period in our lives. After all it isn ' t so much of an exalted feeling to look on the under-classmen. Of course, the first thing, we began to plan those Senior privileges; we spent some time in deciding what and how many we should have. At last they were carefully prepared and presented to the authorities. We have received unlimited pleas- ures from That Privilege. Besides the many forms of greatness achieved and those that have beeu thrust upon us, the Class has made history for both the College and itself by being the largest class to graduate and the first to begin as Freshmen. As we are nearing the last round of our Alma Mater ' s ladder ready to take our first step into the great outside world, let us invoke her everlasting blessing upon us and pledge to her our never-failing loyalty. 2S
