part find bo greeted with thunders of applause. But every man can do his little well, even though he has a very few lines and these poor and weak. I doubt not that wc all, when worn and weary, will look back to these days of Ilobart with eyes of yearning and long for this life again. Thank Heaven, tho past at least is ours. Nothing — nor God nor devil — ran deprive us of that, and, as we look back, the dark tints in the picture are relined and softened: we see it in a fairer light; all harshness and crudeness are done away with and tire perfected picturo stands out clear and beautiful.

Qeriior AFTER four years, it becomes necessary for the Class of 1886 to leave Hobart and really begin its life’s 'work. Four years seemed long when, jn the fall of 1882, we first entered here; but in truth how little it really is. Still it is enough to have changed men radically — to have alterod character for either better or worse for ever.

Yet to us all, there is a bitter feeling in leaving a place become familiar and men whom we love and whom wc shall probably never soo again, Wc shall remember thougli they forget us. And so wo go forth, doubting withal, for though we know what wc are now, we cannot tell what we may be. Success, as the world counts success, cannot be for us all; yet there is a success which the world recks not of, and this may wo all attain. Not every ono-can play a grand heroic
