With redoubled determination the Sophs, “rushed again and again s ( to the onset.” Struggle after struggle ensued.. Meanwhile the )ji cane was slowly but steadily moving toward Trinity Hal), where, | ■with a mighty effort, it was lodged in safety. “My deparment,” f- which neither cords nor bauds of steel could hold, responded to its ■ f call, and with an awful voice, as if it were the oracle of old, cried aloud •. ! “ JProeul Opromi este, -profani! ” Following the custom of its predecessors, ’88 has caused the college bell to ring out loudly on the midnight air. Twice has the dangerous feat been performed, adding still more to our fame. Time is rapidly gliding by, and we are beginning to reap some of the laurels, which we hope to wear during our college career. Upward and onward are we going, ever looking forward to the time when, as graduates, we may call ' ‘ Old. Hobart ” our Alma ' Mater, And now—in tire full enjoyment of our college life, and in anticipation of the benefits which we will have reaped, when we leave Hobart’s classic shades and launch forth into the busy scenes of active life—with Virgil may we exclaim: “ ifforsitan haec olirn meminisse juvabit.” rf i EIGHTY-THPJ3J5.
