Junior (Editorial!. Enimve.ro di nos quasi pilas homines habent. Another year is swiftly passing bv and ’89 is still losing members. Starting out with the largest class that lias entered Hobart for some time, and expecting a large contingent of scientific men from ’90, we find as we approach onr final goal that our number is becoming very small. But let us not be downhearted, rather let us consider this as a cause for our uniting ourselves more closely. Our elections last fall testify to a more liberal and generous feeling than has ever existed in our class; let us keep up this feeling, and then, strong in the friendship and support of each other, with the refrain yap run so4 S v ianv ringing hi our ears let us enter upon onr last year in harmony. The revival of the Cremation of Mathematics was undertaken and successfully carried out by us last year, and wc sincerely hope that the custom will be contin- ued. Of other achievements we have none to boast of except the kindly feeling which has been so evident in our class undertakings this fall, and which per- haps is the greatest triumph we may ever wish to boast of. We are approaching the last of our Junior year. Soon we must exchange the luxurious purple for the scholarly black and assume the character of the man, “ For him was liefer to have at Ilia bedde'R hedde Twenty books clothed in Mack ov redde Of Aristotle and his philosophic Than robes rich or fithe or psawterie.” Through the preparations for ’88’s commencement we begin to catch a glimpse of our own. Only a year more is left to us. lvet us make such use of it that when we leave dear old Hobart to venture out into the wide world, pleasant- est of all our recollections will ever be the remembrance of the close ties of friend- ship which bound us to our classmates.
