If I were to go on and tell of all the unusual things 1916 did that year, the Tower would look like a dictionary. Thinking of your comfort in per- using said book, I refrain. Usual or unusual-1916 captured the inter-class championship for hockey, to the chagrin and amazement of some other classes. Victory would not desert her chosen daughters. Spring came and with it, Junior week, for which plans had been afoot the year before. The college authorities very nearly gave us a vacation that week but found it unnecessary. Wfe took it! All sorts of things hap- pened that week, splendid, glorious, wonderful, thrilling, expensive and heart-breaking. It would take a book to do justice to the junior Prom alone, not to mention the receptions, teas and theatre parties. Exams finished the year, but not us! Wfe came back the next year, irreproachable as Seniors. VVith the dignity and propriety befitting our high rank as Seniors, we garbed ourselves in cap and gown and went about our business as pro- spective pedagogues should, scorning the frivolities of the freshmen and the improper ways of other under-class men. Our four years' record as a class had been so unusual in its brilliancy that we were, much against our will, persuaded by the college to write it up as a book, which could be used as a guide to other classes planning a four years' journey such as ours. This stupendous task required a great deal of brain matter, but, having accumulated a superfluity of such, we were able to accomplish the task and present the information in the Tower. Read well and profit by it! VVe have come to the end of our journey. As we prepare for Com- mencement we are reminded of the words- With a sudden swift realization That still there are things we don't know VVith a queer little ache in us somewhere And a last look around us-VVe Go!
