COLGATE UNIVERSITY 29 SENIOR .HISTORY HE class of 1906 has nearly reached the goal towards which it has been striving for four years. As we look ahead through four years, it seems like quite a time and yet how quickly have they passed away. It seems hardly true that these years have gone and that we are on the verge of being turned out into the cold wide world. While the members of the class have changed considerably from year to year, yet on the whole there has not been such a falling ofl' in numbers as there has been in some classes. When we entered as Freshmen we were fifty-eight strong and we have about forty to be graduated, while thirty-six of these have been here during the entire four years. There has always been a strong feeling of unity among the members of the class and most loyal college spirit. Four happy years these have been! The only thing that has come to mar our path during the entire time has been the loss of our classmate Frederick G. Kimmich, who was the President of the class at the time of his death and was much beloved by all. The class of 1906 might be said to be a class which has been prominent in reviving old customs and in originating new ones. In our freshman year we brought up the old custom of burning the college algebra, and in our sophomore year the soiree was carried out with great satisfaction. Both of these customs have been followed by succeeding classes. And in our senior year we have been the originators of the custom of wearing the cap and gown on the hill, a thing which we hope will be a permanent custom. Our class has never had the pleasure of beholding the beloved form of Mercury, and yet very pleasant and enjoyable have all our banquets been. In our junior year we took special pleasure and pride in holding a Morse Cup banquet. Now we shall soon go out into the world. Our past is history. What our future shall be, remains to be seen. Whatever shall be our station in life, how- ever, we shall always think of these college days as the happiest and best of our lives, and shall always look up to Colgate as our beloved and honored 'Alma Mater. May she ever thrive and may her future be marked by even greater success than her past has been, is the prayer of the class of 1906. HISTORIAN.
