A ES, JUNIORS, we are going, and to you who are to be our successors in this Hall of Fame we do hereby bequeath our coat-room and our well-beloved seats in Room I7. Although you take our seats we doubt much that any such powerful argu- ments or enobling discussions will be heard as we hear from our sages Miss O'C-nn-r and Mr. H-pk-ns. No such memory as our pride, Miss K-ng, possesses will again be found. You must indeed work, juniors, to fill well these worthy seats. Next year you may calmly sit in the back seats and watch your successors and the special ones continue the General Exercises. To them is bequeathed this noble endeavor. If the tide comes right in October, if not, in April, you will probably take your trip to Nantasket. The Section, perhaps, could tell you about this year's trip. Une, at least, seemed speaialgf interested, although the geology interest of many of our own Seniors was exceedingly lively that day. 'I' Another thing in store for you juniors, is Literature. Having Gymnastics the hour before adds great enthusiasm to this study. If you run from the base- ment to the top floor you arrive on the scene of action perhaps not more than ten minutes late. If, however, fwhich is better stillj you belong to the Don't Hurry Club and leisurely make your way toward Lit. you may arrive in time to hear the lesson given out for the next day. It is here in this class that you are advised to notice at your first opportu- nity the effect of a full moon on yourself and your surroundings. It has been suggested that the Astronomy class join the Lit. class in this search, their knowledge in this subject being greater. Alas, Juniors, we have no new Gymnasium to leave to you. This will not be in your day either, but the Esthetic Gymnastics will. Yes in due season you will be as graceful and proficient in that art as your predecessors hope to become. It is truly something to look forward to. .1HpOi'Z

,THE NORMAL GFFERING I7 The cup also we bequeath to you, but not before the name Seniors IQO2 is engraved upon it. We hate to leave without making our mark, however, next year we feel that Seniors IQO3 will find their name beside ours. In Reading we can only hope that you will be as successful as we. That was certainly our forte, for either in teaching, The pen is black, or in Shy- lock's coarse, rough tones hurling bitter epithets at Antonio we excelled. We were also perfectly at ease in our work with gestures, being equally as good orator as patron or saint. However, dear juniors, we feel that you are fast learning the ways of Nor- mal and that we are leaving a class behind us that, coming into our places, will take up the work where we have left it, Push forward, go onward and upward until you, too, are ready to leave the dear Normal and take up your life-work in the outside world. The only thing we fear for you, and that only for a part, is your leaving your life in Normal for that in Tillinghast. Beware! change your ways l Take the advice of the Seniors, speak only in whispers, retire promptly at 9.55 arising only upon hearing the 630 bell. A safe precaution would be to wear tennis shoes during your sojourn in that hall. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. With these suggestions as safeguards we wish you as happy a Senior year as we have enjoyed. A word to the wise is sufficient. I Mem bers.
