AUIJCNBACH SENIOR ROOM VVe have come to the end of a journey, A day that for years has been soughtg As we labored and strove in our efforts VVith the hope that some good might be wrought. But is this just a lnunble confession By dreamers and prophets foretold, Or is it the goal we have longed for To the world our lives to unfold? 'Tis but a glimpse at the future That thru ages the past shall transcendg And we, thru our earnest endeavors, Must uphold so noble an end, Once more we stand here assembled Our Alma Mater bids us farewellg Fond hopes will forever be cherished, But life is the tale that will tell Just what we men have aecomplishedg And would that our emblem might be: A mark of distinction is nobler Than winning a college degree. Into life we are called for some service, No garlands are strewn on our way, But we'l1 answer the call and be loyal With the hope that some future day May east a reflection of honor On the college we all love so well. Now to dear old Franklin and Marshall We bid a regretful farewell. WAYNE H. Krxsm'

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Scientists claim that at one time the universe was an indefinable mass of matter from which, in the course of time, various definite forms began to appear. For example, in the fall of 1917 a disconnected, heterogeneous mass was deposited on the campus of Franklin and ltlarshall College. VVitbin three days this mass had organized itself so well that in the annual tie-up, the sophs, a supposedly superior force, were conquered in half the allotted time. Our class spirit, which first showed itself in the tie-up, has been evident throughout our college career. It was not long after college began that our men were taking part in all the activities of the institution.. During our freshman year we had nine men who played varsity football. Snow prevented the annual football game with the sophomores, but with such a large number of varsity men in our ranks there was no doubt as to what the result would have been. Our freshman banquet was enjoyed without mishap. We delightfully entertained the sophomore class president while his class enjoyed a repast at the Iris Club. At the beginning of our sophomore year many of our members had left to join the service, while the rest of us participated in the S. A. T. C. experiment. Regular college activities were for the most part suspended during this time. After the Christmas holidays, the S. A. T. C. having been disbanded, we resumed our normal college life. Although it was too late to stage a tie-up or a football game with the newcomers, a f rce-for- all on the college campus was our method of teaching obedience to the freshmen. After this contest we had no trouble in maintaining our authority. Our sophomore banquet closed a successful year of class activities. ' Coming back for our third year, we found quite a few men from previous classes in our midst. These men who had just returned from oversea serv- ive helped to fill out the ranks of our own class, which had also been de- pleted by the war. The most noteworthy accomplislnnents of our junior year were the Junior Hop and the publication of the 1921 Oriflamme. We are now on the last lap of our race. Before long our ranks will be broken and members of our class will undertake the more difticult tasks of life. VVith endearing hearts, we will ever look to Franklin and Marshall College as the author of our ideals of service and loyalty. VVe will ever try to uphold ber standards and traditions by doing our best at all times. And now, as we take a last lingering look at our old familiar haunts, we bid a fond adieu to our classmates and to our professors who helped us to gain our desired goal. H. I. AULENBACH.
