dream no more. The stern realities of Trigonometry, An- alytical Geometry, Calculus, and a host of kindred evils confronted us in our Sophomore year. Our number had de- creased, but stern and steady the remnant marched to the con- flict, and after a hard struggle we pulled through, bearing the wounded off the field. But there is always a balm for aching hearts and we celebrated our deliverence from bondage by a symposium at Sunbury. What feeble words can describe that event, that glorious day, or to speak more correctly, that glorious night. Relentless time hurries us on and we are Juniors. We study Logic and can argue anything in the book or out of it. We talk about syllogisms and petitio prin- cipii with remarkable fluency. We also deliver public orations to an audience of 3 Sems, 19 Preps, the unlucky section of the class assigned to speak, the professor of Rhetoric and the instruc- tor in Elocution. Never had there been anything to equal it on the platform of Commencement Hall, and the vast audience forgot their disappointment over the absence of burlesques in the smoothly flowing stream of oratory that poured into their open mouths. The bell rings for the last act. Nineteen staid and solemn Seniors stand before the world. Never has there been a Senior class upon whom dignity and high hats rest so easily and well- In Geology, every man is an authority. He is as fa- miliar with rocks and minerals as he is with the photograph of his best girl. Who in ' 88 could not be a geologist when there was the constant inspiration derived from geological trips in the surrounding country, and down into the dark and dismal coal mines of Shamokin ? Who could not appreciate and understand fossils when our fourteen fair Seminary class sisters helped us find them ? But the days are passing. Soon we shall stand where many have stood before us, and we shall go the way of all college men. Out into the wide world, into theology, into law, into medicine,, into business, into teaching, into matrimony (?). May the gods guide our footsteps if any of us ever get near the latter ! Kind reader, drop a tear of sympathy for our misfortunes, a tear of charity for our failings, and sing some little song of hope as we linger a moment ere the bell rings and the curtain drops.
