Vol. ?O B O W' D O I N B U G L li l916 191 ANY times in the course of a day we see the Seniorsfgtoo often, perhaps, for our own comfort and enjoyment. From chapel in the early morn till the movies in the dewy eve, their awkward representation of a hu- man being trying to walk with aid of a cane stirs some half-awakened memory of prehistoric times and of the days when men had tails and chased their gibbere ing fellows through the tree tops. XYe may describe them brielly as living expo- nents of the Darwinian theory. Yvhether on the athletic held or in society's gilded parlors, their proneness to blundering remarks, clumsy behavior and scapegrace episodes always reveals them. That they realize their shortcomings is shown by their efforts to disguise themselvesg they turn their sweaters inside out, they let hairy growth cover their faces, from time to time they press their trousers. NYould that they could dis- guise themselves effectually But they have tried and failed and none can regret their failure more than we, just as none can be sorrier than they. Look at them as they sit in chapel! Xllere Disraeli here he would call them a row of extinct volcanoes. lVe supplement this by calling them a sprinkling of ashes which re- tards Bowdoin's otherwise smooth road of progress. Wihat can they do when President Hyde wields the broom, sweeping them into the cold outside? lYith the Dusky Dee each and every one of them will say, Oh, what will become of me V' To exterminate them would be as hard as to kill the young robin fallen from his nestg but yet we know he will fall victim to some preying cat if we do not crush him under foot to save him from a more miserable fate. NYere we at war with the Germans the solution would be simple. lVere we cannibals,fbut no, even cannibals would rebel. Xve give it upg you give it upg they give it up. Nothing can be done with them. The world was born to suffering and it must suffer these little children to crawl about over its surface. Look at them. Look at them as they go forth from chapel this afternoon,5unswept, uncollared, and Cas yetj unhung. 29
