CLASS HISTORY UR historical dent in K. O. C. may not have been noticed by many others than its members for we have been well shuflled with the larger classes throughout our career. One big exception, we must tell you about, was the fall of 1925. Then it was that we began to have the majority of our classes alone. Instructors learned to call us by name and to kid us personally. We can never forget those days when we really found out who we were. If we were not on time, we could not cut without being noticed and were taught to brave many a calling down for our tardiness. At our first class meeting of the year 1925, it was announced that there was a little money left in the treasury from last year, which shows we know how to pick our men. One committee was organized to take care of itg the sick committee, and they handled it well, for 'tis all gone. Missouri rain and the inevitable mud, which our pioneers and athletes braved for Osteopathy has given us an appreciation and sympathy, that we could not have ob' tained elsewhere. As our course draws near its end, we look with much satisfaction upon the empti' ness of our pocketbooks, as our memory sifts over all the knowledge we have attained of Kirksville's celebrities and possibilities. After a few more months of fuming when the monthly allowance is delayed and all one's friends in the same boat, that satisfacf tion -will be justined, when we lay this purse on the shelf for a larger one. This class numbers thirty in members, who represent almost as many states. Some have dropped out from the original class, others have fallen in. Most of us are glad that we are about to reach our goal. We have had our share of work and fun, and our mingling with upper classmen has been capitalized into many acquaintances and lasting friendships and taught us to be unconceited good fellows. Ours is a vision of carrying on the Old Doctor's works, of making his inspiration live on for those who follow us, and an ambition to leave a high mark in the world not unworthy of Osteopathy's Standard.
