®1| (ElaHB nf 2B The history of Secunda! that is what the author of these hues should write. Coiisiiteration, however, constrains him to chanije the suhject slijjhtly, consideration, in the first place, for the reader, lest he burden him with facts which would not interest him anyway, and consideration, in the second place, for himself, lest his name be re- vealed and he incur the ill wishes of the public. If the reader will t;Iance at the accompanying picture, he will behold the group of young men known, or unknown? as Secunda. From their pleasant countenances one could not guess that this is their fifth year at Concordia, and that they have been in- troduced to the terror of all the students — Hebrew. Indeed, they have suffered an introduction to that worthy gentleman, but the two do not seem to be very congenial to each other, and no intimate acquaintanceship has as yet been effected. It is hoped that the desired relationship will soon be realized. Of the class ' s past little is known. No one recorded the events as they occurred, and thus it happens that we have only our memory to consult, which is very unre- liable, since for five years it has been influenced by intensive studying. Only one thing is certain : we came here, and some of us are still here. Oh yes, one thing was almost forgotten, something of vital importance. Several vacations have, of course, been witnessed and the joy with which they were always greeted will never be forgotten. Of all achievements, the ludicrous and sublime, there remains but a vague recollection. Therefore we shall not attempt to relate them, lest we claim the glory of another, and suffer the reproaches of critics, whose reliability in this case nobody would question. In studying the records of the President, however, one thing may be ascertained — that is the present number of members of the class — thirty four. That was not the original number, for in the course of the past four years, several have changed their goal and have left the ranks of the class of ' 2b. But those who remain are determined to stay and to run the race to the finish. [441
