FIRST SCIENTIFIC CLASS On june 14, the scholastic year of 1897 was terminated when, in the presence of more than one hundred church dignitaries and a large number of parents and relatives, the graduating members of the iirst scientific class of De La Salle received their diplomas at Central Music Hall. In the thirty-two years which have since elapsed, though education has moved forward in boundless leaps, De La Salle has ever been in the vanguard. Copyright 1927 by Francis E.

Those budding business men of 1895 have, in the past years earned eminent positions for themselves, and in doing so they have reflected honor upon their Alma Mater. We, the followers of De La Salle's first products, have been instilled with the same upright Christf ian principles, and it is our most cherished ambif tion to add, hy our achievements, more glory to our teachers and our school.
