It was a jolly bunch of fellows Who gathered in the hall Waiting for Dr. Robertson To give his first roll call. They were the Senior medics, About one-hundred five in allg Chaps of all nationalities, From all parts of the ball. Boys at home in Chicago, Boys from foreign lands: Boys from North and boys from South, All joined in shaking hands. One lad was slow to mix with usg He came from Russian lanclsg Sondel spoke his language By using both his hands But all in all it was a set Of jolly good time ladsg Some worked to earn their spenclings, While others spent their clad's. -V.

His early education was se- cured in the public schools of the town of his birth, and later on his thirst for knowl- edge brought him to Valparaiso University. Dr. Weber attended during his Fresh- man year, the C. C. M. 61 S. of Chicago, and has been with us for the past three years. Our best wishes are given for his future success. Benjamin Maurice Wolin, Ph. R. C., was born on October 22, ISSS, in Moscow, Russia. After arriving in America, he fol- lowed the pursuits of knowledge in the Burr public school, and Valparaiso Univer- sity. Later, he attended the Chicago Col- lege of Pharmacy and was successful in passing the State Board of Pharmacy, in l906. His extensive understanding of com- pounding drugs was, however, exceeded by a greater desire to learn their various therapeutic actions. Thus it was that 'iBennie matriculated at Bennett when the class of 'I5 was in its infancy, and has proven himself a valuable addition to the class through the duration of the entire four years. Dr, Wolin has our best wishes for suc- cess. Sli

HISTORY OF SENICR CLASS REETINGS. Hitherto, others doubtless more worthy, have written con- cerning the past, thus it may seem needless that l re-narrate events already recorded. To chronicle all the events of interest which have occurred since these many Seniors launched forth on the wide sea of med- icine would require more space than can possibly be allotted to this classy we can but touch upon the salient pointsg the more notable features in the history, filled with teeming interest. The lover of history, when moved by the exaltation of his spirit, eager for erudite and intellectual sensation, will find in the wondrous deeds of these superb annals-achieved in the everlasting pages of our glorious past -those real and poignant images that, in supernatural redundance, come to his senses in order to gratify them anew with an idealistic sketch of their forms, which produces in his soul a sublime inspiration and delectable ec- stasy. The Senior class of l9l5, whose unquestioned unity and invincible spirit-principles which constitute the motto of that standard which it firmly and proudly displays-has played no minor part in the brilliant history of the well-known Medical Department of Loyola University, and it is with pride, yet not unmixed with modesty that we state, while not pioneers in Loyola's upbuilding, we have at least been eager seconds in the pursuance of its noble ideals. When Bennett re-opened her beneficent lecture halls, in order that she might reveal to us the true secrets which Science holds as its most precious jewels, on or about the hrst of October, l9l l, Time witnessed a memorable event for both Loyola as well as the medical profession at large, for on that day the class of l9l5 entered its precincts as freshmen, and since that time have held the front in all the lines of college life, forging steadily for- ward until now, that we are soon to be launched forth upon the billowy sea of life, to sink or swim. Our first glimpse of life in a medical institution was given us by our predecessors, the Sophomores, who proceeded to demonstrate their origin- ality and sense of humor in such ways as they deemed fitting. Upon our arrival we were met by our antagonists, where a brave effort was made to prevent a drouth. And let it here be said to our credit, that unorganizecl as we were, the battle was not without a most wholesome 'icome-back to the recalcitrant Sophs. Following this, after having demonstrated our ability as warriors, we settled down to the routine work before us, bent upon the more serious things of life. Later, seeing the necessity of class organization, we resolved to strengthen our heroic body by the establishment of a proper leadership, so a meeting was called to consider the election of class officers.
