Senior Farewell HE duty of the Senior who lias to sum up the achievements of liis class and write the last class history is, indeed, a melancholy one. To write of the deeds of a Senior class is to tell the story, to a great extent, of the College for four yearn. The different events that come to mind as one looks over four years of College life have had their share in making the College better or worse. Ninety-nine is confident that her history lias been part of the history of progress, not decadence in old Hobart. Her members have been most prominent in every form of College activity. And it is not vain boasting to assert that every enterprise under Ninety-nine’s auspices has been managed in a manner worthy of applause. Tn her under-classmcii years, she found worthy foemen in Ninety- eight and Nineteen hundred but never was her fair fame dishonored in mid- night scrap or class contest. The Cane and the Faculty Cup are -witnesses of her prowess. In scholarship her place is primus inter pares. Never has she faltered in devotion to the highest ideals of college-life and student manhood. Ninety-nine owes much to those men who have joined her ranks since she entered Hobart. Likewise,' in these last days of her College existence, she remembers those whom adverse fortune has withdrawn from her number. Wherever they are, whatever may be their lot, she believes that their lives are nobler and their aims higher for the time passed in Alina Mater’s walls. And now about to step out into the wide, wide world and take up the battle of life, Ninety mine renews her pledge of loyal tj' to old Hobart, and assures her Alma Mater of the continuance of that devotion so noticeable in her College career.
