OPPORTUNITY O PPORTUNITY! Whore do we find it? It is not in the far away future. It is not something intangible and mysterious. Opportunity is present with us S ‘now A college education opens the way to a life of service. College means opportun- ity. Let us remember that our success de- pends not on what may come to us tomor- row but on what we make out of today.

1920 SKNIOR MUSINGS Memories of the class of '20 as Freshmen, Sophomores and Juniors soon fade, but long will be the memories of our Senior days. Through three long weary years we toiled with one hope in view, that of becoming Seniors, for were we not told that Seniors were favored? But, alas, when we became Seniors our hopes seemed shattered for schedules, debates, tests and exams, as usual confronted us. Although they may» seem big and darn and fearful like the storm cloud, they are never as ter- rible as we imagine them to be. We work hard and play hard, for have we not learned by experience that “all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy ? However, all thoughts of play are cast aside when a debate brief or written argument absolutely must be handed in by a certain date if we desire the honor of having an extra letter conferred upon us. For instance, having an F raised to a D. As dignified and stately Seniors, we have studied in all the depart- ments, worked out the puzzles, solved the great mysteries, laughed at the jokes (when necessary), and treated ourselves as worthwhile human be- ings. You may not agree with this, nevertheless it is true. We arc proud of our class, for is it not noted for its ambition, in- telligence and talent? It would be impossible for the under-classmen to give their programs without calling upon our famous musicians for aid. Then too, r.o olher class can boast of so many of its members assisting the faculty, for we have teachers of English, Language, Science and even Math. It is not only in scholarship that we excel, but we rapk among the highest in Athletics—Basketball, Baseball, Football and Tennis. For further evidence of our ability, all the important offices of the different organizations of the college are held by members of the Senior class, namely, the presidents of Y. W. C. A., Y. M. C. A., of the entire student body, and of the tennis association, manager of the girls’ basket-ball team, captain of the boys’ team, and others too numerous to mention. We are all loyal sons and daughters of the Buckeye State, except, Mr. Chu from far away Cathay. As a class wo have lived a part and con- tributed a share to the continual growth of good, so are we, now, upon the threshold of a new life. We see a new vision, a new way of life, a new feeling of hopefulness. Graduation, day is but a step toward the great field of life where we may fulfill the visions we have caught during our college days.—R. H. 18
