M LJ' I 5, ,. I j: inhaling: pl 1' ;. $eniur Eighty D, W i , T was but yesterday that we were sitting in i ' I the F reshman seats: we looked with awe L x upon grave old Seniors, and today we are , . , e, g asked to write our history, for tomorrow we . ; t I , i x will be gone. Our story is in part sad, for we mourn the Classmates left by the way. The few of us who remain are by that fact more closely bound. Few have there been to bear the burden but, side by side we have put our shoulder to the wheel and in this we glory. We have by turns been ridiculed and pelted, because we had no athletes. True, we had them not; but we have them and we made them. In times of need we have not been found wanting. In every branch of athletics 1907 has furnished her share of men and their work has been of the greatest honor to the class and College because we won through willing spirit and loyal effort rather than by brawn and muscle. In scholarship we have always sought to uphold the traditions of Hamilton. Our failures we have used as step- ping stones to higher merit and in the result we rest content. Why speak of our orators, or prize winners or our debating team? Their record is matched by few, surpassed by none. Nor have we striven along these lines forgetful of the broader life that makes Hamilton the only spot on earth. Cherishing the traditions established by our honored prede- cessors, we have endeavored to uphold them and hand them down unstained to those who shortly are to take our places. 25

We do not deceive ourselves by fondly believing that our place cannot be filled, but we do feel justified in assert- ing that there is not a place, be it on the athletic field, in the musical clubs, or in the social side of college life that will not lose by our departure. Yet none will miss us so deeply as we will miss our Alma Mater. These four years, so short in passing, have left their mark upon us. We go forth into the world not as thirty-two men, each to battle for himself: we go as a class bearing with us a love that will not alter. 26 .1 31x; :txfyi t -. x44 D ' :A w A :$ Aw ANhMJfo': m l exx .; TIM he Tt tux i i t if: r Agh. t1:
