OUR KCOLLEGE Class Song, '18 Come, let us sing old Highland's praise, Come, let us sing of college days. Sing of the days that are so dear To all who have been students here. We love our school and faculty, And ever true to them we'll be. We'll think of Highland as our home, No matter where we chance to roam. Chorus: H. P. C.! Oh, H. P. C.! With many happy college days. H. P. C.! Oh, H. P. C.! In future years we'l1 sing thy praise. We also love our D. M. C., And tribute now we pay to theeg Old D. M. C., we love thee wellg How much, no tongue can ever tell. Our deans and all our teachers so true, We realize the debt we owe to youg ln men1ory's halls enthroned you'll hc, Old college friends of D. M. C. Chorus : D. M. C.! Oh, D. M. C.! With many happy college days. D. M. C.! Oh, D. M. C.! In future years we'll sing thy praise. But 11ow our schools have been made one The work of each is nobly done. The college now must stand the test, And be the school to lead the West. We'll boost for her with all our mightg We know she'l1 stand for all that is right. And now we give our pledge so true, The New College, success to you. Chorus: Our New School! Our New School! We wish for you the very best. Our New School! Our New School! May Heaven's blessings on thee rest. Erma L. Krout

V The Engineers, Chain . is 4 The 1910 graduating class of Engineers forged -, the anchor and welded the first link of 'the Eu- ',, 1 gineers' Chain, which is a symbol of the depart- iy N ,- p ment spirit. 1 . p As shown by the illustration, each link is made of steel, supporting within it a brass tablet on which are engraved the names of the graduating class of A 4' I Q the year in question. Each succeeding class formed and welded a link into the ever-growing chain. if - v ik ' The welding of the link was ever the principal -4' ,Q one of the Engineering Class Day Exercises and was If always one of the most impressive of commence- J' i ment. Weather permitting, this took place on L W X N - f . N 1 L1- the campus in the evening. The students ran spe- cial wiring and fixtures to the outdoor stage and, by the ingenious use of rheostats and arrangements of lights -in connection with the electric welding machine, produced most beautiful- and impressive effects. . . A regular class oiiicer was elected yearly from the Junior class known as Keeper of the Chain and at the conclusion of the welding ceremony, the pres- ident of the graduating class presented the chain to the newly-elected keeper for the ensuing year. He has been instructed to turn the chain over to the class of the new College of Engineering, the Col- lege to add a link commemorating the merger of Highland Park College and Des Moines College. A
