JUNIOR HISTORY N September 14, 1915, we, twenty-three merry lads and lassies, entered Cedarville College. Our ambitions were high and our m motto was Hitch your wagon to a star.” Time is too short to relate the events of that year. Although June came all too quickly, we said good-bye” with hopes of meeting again. But, The best laid plans of mice and men Gang aft aglee.” September. 1916, brought back only thirteen of our original twenty- three. However, two strangers joined us that year. Spreads were less numerous than in the previous year. But we were not yet so dignified that we didn’t chase the Freshies home from prayer meeting. Our Junior year has been a pleasant one. We have at least begun to apply ourselves seriously to our books (though perhaps not from choice). We shall now try to set forth some of the merits of our class. Oliver Cornwell—tall, slender,,good-natured Ollie” is the star basket-ball center. We just can’t play without Ollie,” so say the rest of the team. Helen Creswell is our country girl, who does her share for her country by knit- ting, and is always ready for a spread. Bob Colman, our friendly pastor, often selects this text, Woman, the morning star of infancy, The day star of manhood, The evening star of old age. Bless our stars. But may they ever be kept at a telescopic distance.” To our class the Faculty turned for an assistant in Chemistry Labora- tory, and chose Allen Turnbull, who so well filled the position last year. William Anderson displays great business ability. For two years he served as Assistant Business Manager for The Ckdrus, and he is also President of our class. Olive Finney is a quiet, reliable girl (Treasurer of the Y. W. C. A.) Meryl Stormont is a patriotic Junior doing his part to feed the allied armies. Louisa Finney is another country girl who cuts classes only when the snow is deep. Some people wonder if Norman Foster is as happy as he looks. We can testify his good nature is permanent. Ilis smile won't rub off. George Smith was the College orator. However, he is now engaged in patriotic service on the farm. Of the writer of this letter the least said is soonest mended.
