Tbt Seniors Just to think that we were once freshmen! The thought almost makes us hide our faces in shame, for we naturally think of the present freshmen and unconsciously put ourselves in their places. Thus we do ourselves a wrong. e were never such specimens as are the dirty little urchins we now see playing marbles in the halls and fighting over whether one yelled “vence” before the other shot. No, we had outgrown the nursing age and had reached the time iu life when young people make up their minds to accomplish something in the world. The teachers marveled at our brillancy and sterling worth, and predicted that we should be the grandest, most wonderful class ever graduated from Old Central. They were supremely happy to think that at last, they would be able to see some results from their unceasing labor. They finally grew so enthuiastic that they began to have us come back in the afternoons for a little social chat. But we soon saw that it was merely the benefit they derived from us that caused this attention on their part, and since we were not in school for the purpose of instructing our teachers we soon grew lax in our attendance at these little meetings which undoubtedly would have ended naturally, but school let out about this time so that the teachers were enabled to seek instructions elsewhere. Besides we were no longer Freshmen. The next year the greater part of us were Sophomores, and thus we had a chance to change our teachers and begin anew our valuable instructions, which we carried on very successfully for the whole year, so that in the spring we had the teachers fairly capable of teaching the Freshmen who were soon to come from the Ward schools. The next year we were Juniors. Now we had reached the place where the Senior looked very kindly on us in hopes we would give them a party and the Sophomores offered us daily prayers to save them our prose translations and ponies, and the teachers (thanks to our persistant training) had grown to be rather instructive to us and valuable to the school. It was during this year that we really worked and accomplished something. But now we are Seniors, supreme, grand, shining, dazzling stars, unequaled in the years past and admirable models for future classes to pattern after. The task of describing us to the public is too great. I fail for lack of words to express our grandeur.
