SENIOR SENIOR CLASS HISTORY, COLUMBIAN COLLEGE Dear Alma Mater: — Years and years ago we came to thee a rough and untutored mob. In our barbarism we met and defeated the Class of 1915 — defeated them so thor- oughly that our skill in fistic combat has become a tradition, and the name of the Class of 1916 will be written high on the roll of thy most valorous children. As time went on thy influence began to make itself felt, and our aggres- sive tendencies became diverted from warlike channels to those of Education and Learning, Little by little we acquired that Indefinite Something which makes thy children Scholars and Gentlemen, and quite at ease in the Society of Educated Men We were learning. The stores of Knowledge were yield- ing up their treasures to us, and we were gradually bcoming familiar with that priceless thing, True Culture, which roots itself in countless centuries. Already among thy Children of 1916 there are to be found men and women of whom thou art justly proud. Some, whose occupations have neces- sitated their early departure from thy halls, have won distinction in their chosen fields. Among those who have stayed until thou shalt bid them go are many who have done much to uphold the Fame and Honour of their Alma Mater, We go into that broad field of mature Manhood and Womanhood to play the game of Life as thou hast taught us to play it, to careers that will be much enriched and made more fruitful by the influence thou hast exercised over us during the formative period of our lives We will maintain thy Fame bright and thy Honour unsullied through all our years On the eve of our departure we thank thee for all thou hast done for us. Whatever good we may achieve will be due in greatest degree to thy teach- ings, tenderness and care. But much as thou hast done for us t Alma Mater, thou hast not given us ability to express the gratitude and appreciation we feel for thee. From our hearts, Alma Mater, we thank thee The Class of 1916. , t,«, a , , , „i !• • ,•- « • «, 25
