We bequeath to our beloved Juniors all the privileges, deeds of charity, and partiality shown us on the part of the Faculty, that we as Seniors have enjoyed for the past year; also the large, honorable title of Seniors; the clock which has an uncanny way of gaining time during the noon period when it is left alone with tin freshmen. Also do we dedicate to the Juniors the Senior Assembly.” At the departure of said Juniors, the real estate aforesaid, we give to our dear Sophomore class on condition that each member thereof graduate with high honors.

SENIOR CLASS POEM How swift is time! In vain I think The past four years have been a dream. Four years as one; thoughts, link by link From “Memory’s Chain,’’ a mystic gleam Before us shines on life's wide brink— But these are only things that seem. Our boat is waiting by the shore. ith backward glance, we furl the sails; With faltering grasp we take the oars Firmly now lest courage fails, As oft it seemed it would before. We strive to face the fiercest gale. When the end draws near, and trials are more, Our pilot may despair. We know these waves were beast before, So we the same may dare; And brave the billows, all efforts due, W ith cherished ideals full in view. Boll on swift time; may you bestow On those we leave behind, Oood luck. Success, rich gifts, also True friends, in whom they’ll find Contentment, hope, and jov divine.
