THE ECHO. EDITORIAL 84 ST 18 NOW three years since we came up to the classic lwlls of:bid Hobart with a grip-sack in our hand and a strap full of bppka,.un4ejr our arm and gazed with open mouths at tho massive structures, and wondered by what Cyclopean hands they hod been erected. It is three years, we say, and yet it seems but yesterday. Those massive buildings are tho same but we are vastly different. Tho green appearance which the old limestone walls put on with age, has been rubbed off from ub by the kind treatment of the Class of 83, who, notwithstanding tho wear and tear, still manege to keep verdant. Many changes have come over us as a body. Wo have lost some of our most valiant men. One is at present exploring the Orient, another is teaching tho young idea how to shoot, one, who was everjrcady in any joke, has been forced through adverse cir- cumstances to leave our ranks. But reinforcements have come in; ’85 fur- nished a goodly number of Scientific men, and in Rochester’s loss wc have gained. Our experience has been extremely varied; always bubbling over with mirth, nevertheless there has always been a swift undercurrent of wis- dom and understanding. Wo have tried ,tlio civil law and found it was not to be resisted any more than college law. If ever wo acted unwisely we were always ready to acknowledge it. But it is not our intention to write an eulogy to ’84, for It needs none, its deeds ore too woll known. This is the next to the lost editorial that will bo written for the good old class, and soon 84 will be a thing of the past but alive still, and living up to her motto, Per angusta ad augusta. Our difficulties have been numerous and may our individual greatnesses be more numerous! Through the next brief year which we have to spend in dear old Hobart be it our earnest endeavor to make our college what it ought to be; which
