Senior Class Poem The Iasi glad year of happy college days Rolls to its close. The maze Of our unknown career Spreads in a mist that wakens in us fear— Not cowardly, but that we feel the dear Responsibility Which all the Mother's training makes in us to be. We pause awhile and yet once more survey The joyous scenes which lay Along our course. We see Again the acts of college comedy— Droll happenings, and jokes from hearts carefree. We also feel again The little tear-fraught tragedies, which made us men. We stand upon life’s threshold to decide The course where shall be tried What fire burns in each soul. We feel the future’s in our own control. And all our tasks shall point a flying goal. We shall be scattered far. Our ranks be broken, but we follow all one star. ’Tis truth, which. Alma Mater, thou hast taught And planted in our thought. We therefore pledge anew To thee ’’our love, our life in all we do. As sons of thine, thy loyal sons and true. Soon to be from thee far— The Class of nineteen-thirteen bids thee au revoir. Geo. W. Cox.

Senior Class History T was in the year of our Lord 1909 that this event of importance took place. Upon one day. in all the provinces of King Blcase. and also several provinces of other kings, namely upon the twenty-first day of the ninth month, which is the month of September, a proclamation having been sent out to that effect, a great journey was being made to the court of Edwin, surnamed Poteat, who. with all his generals, ruled with a high and mighty hand. I hese journeymen, so be it known, were of a rare and tender age and were not versed in the strange and wicked arts of the court. Nevertheless, they arrived safe at the court of Edwin and were there met by sundry other journeymen, who had resided several years already at the court and were received with much welcoming. They having come for a residence of three and one years, were deeply appreciative of this welcoming, which they mistook for kindness. They were taken to their rooms, and being weary, they laid them down to rest. I hey bethought themselves of the country from which they had journeyed, and of the kindly sires and mothers that had bidden them adieu. In these thoughts they waxed more and more unmindful of outside things, and behold they slept. But it behooves me painfully to relate that they were rudely awakened by certain Philistines and heathen, otherwise known as Sophomores. Their beds were turned upon them, they were dampened with water, and their skin was blistered with the stinging lash. These new arrivals, now called by the name of an animal of the lower order, bethought them of their pleasant homes and their kindly sires, and they wept. The days passed swiftly and they waxed more and more content with their lot. which was perfect except for the heathen and sundry of the generals of the court. Near the court of Edwin were situated two other courts, the court of Byrd and the court of James (which is now known as the court of Ramsay), where resided many beautiful maidens. The youths beheld with longing eyes the maidens, and the maidens beheld with longing eyes the youths and all was well. One was chosen as their leader who was swift of foot and who with great exactness propounded the Scriptures, and under whose leadership they grew bold and did well, for theirs were greater numbers than any that had journeyed to the court of Edwin before. But in their conflicts with the generals many were vanquished, and in the twelfth month, which is the month of December, others were banished and did return no more. After a residence of eight and one months at the court they betook themselves to the country from which they had journeyed for a brief respite of two and one months. It was again in the ninth month, which is the month of September, that they journeyed again to the famous court. Lo, upon their arrival they found many who were as they had been upon their first journey. They welcomed them with great kindness and showed them to their rooms. They bethought them of their treatment when they first arrived at the court of Edwin, and a desire for revenge was born within their souls. Thereupon
