Senior History MEN FTER four long and happy years spent at Colby the class of nine- teen hundred and four stands upon a threshold, as it were, opening into a new and broader life. Soon we shall step across the threshold and pull shut the door ot undergraduate life. But let us push open the almost closed door to take one more farewell look before we close it upon ourselves for all time. Looking backward through the open door of college life we see ourselves as a bunch of green Freshmen, ignorant of College activities and requirements Nevertheless we were willing and eager to learn and a year taught us many things. We look again and the group of Freshmen has changed to a lot of noisy, care-free Sophomores. What fun we had with the Fresh- men in general and with their reading in particular. We won the class track games and entered every side of college life. Gnce again we look backward and see ourselves grown into juniors, enjoying their so-called 'flunior Ease But we did not find this year easy. ' Far from it. We settled down to work in real earnest. Only the Strike occurred to break the monotony of our steady plugging. About to close the door we take a last look over the last year. Time has worked wonders with usg but most of all it has thinned our ranks from nearly nfty to an even sixteen, But this has only served to bring us closer together as classmates. We have taken an active interest in, and furnished men for all kinds of college activities. Our record is one to be proud of. In a short time we shall have to close the door on our college lite and associations, to go out into the broader school of the world. We shall do this bravely and shall seek our future with the kindest feel- ings toward the college that has sheltered us for so long. I5
