Our honor course lias been the largest of any class in college, while we have had the strongest representation on the ball nine. In general athletics, also, '90 takes the lead with a very generous share of prizes. Thus we press on to the ever-nearing goal,—first in scholarship, first in athletics. We now have passed the mid-way mark in our college course, a recollection somewhat tinged with regret. The time has come when we must begin 10 prepare fora life’s work. We must now be earnest, for we are responsible not for ourselves alone, but for others who look to us for an example Our time is brief; one short year and we must sav a lingering farewell. The many close friendships, the mutual interests must in great measure he severed as we follow our various paths. Still we can carry with 11s the hap- py recollections and proud thoughts of “ great and mighty ’90.” Let us therefore make the most o ' the present, with the knowl- edge that the future is but one step further and depends upon our present direction, whether it be to the right or to the left.

 History, '90- TWO years spent and now a third all too quickly hurrying to its close. The verdant spring of Freshman life rapidly merged into the ruddy Sophomore summer, and this in turn has ripened into the glorious autumn of our Junior days. Here we stand under '90s proudly waving banner, our hearts aglow with honest pride for the record of our class. We have always been a strong, united class from the time when first we entered dear Hobart’s halls and trembled at the dread cry “ Yo Fresh.” We have gladly welcomed to our ranks many new members, and have been compelled to bid a reluctant farewell to but few of those who entered with us. 21
