WE THINK. Think how such remarkable people as now compose the Senior class were all once Freshmen. We are the proud possessors of all the wisdom of this enlightened age. Indeed, we know so much that the teachers give us nothing but hundreds, then apologize because they cannot give more. Think not that because we are so brilliant, we are a vain, useless class; for we are not. The art-loving Seniors have formed an Art Club with which to beat the Freshmen into taking drawing. The boys organized the Athletic Association for the promotion of base-ball practice among the teachers. Under such editors-in-chief as Parkinson, Miss Zens, and Gibson, the Luminary has eclipsed the sun and likewise the rays from Brinkman’s countenance. Yea, verily, we are famous abroad. The waves of ora-, tory started in Central, reached Chicago, brought back a medal for Cromer to put safely away. As to the essays written for the Sons of the Revolution—why, they so excelled the others that the judges could not and did not consider them. Alter all this was accomplished the Seniors finally thought that a class would be a good thing. This x'raordinary class did not have the usual Senior fight; ----v. f but calmly elected James E. Gibson, president. The Seniors’ eye for beauty was shown in the class pin selected. As a proof of the deference which is paid to our choice of colors, let it be said that both the Manual and Lincoln High Schools selected the same, realizing that no colors more beautiful could be found. Although the Convention Hall was built for our commencement exercises, nevertheless the Seniors of ’99, the crowning glory of Old Central, had become so attached to the school and had rendered such able assistance to the faculty that they preferred to be graduated in the Assembly Hall, amid the reading of the Declarations ot Independence and beating of tom-toms.
