But if there is in the following any seeming exaggera- tion of our attributes, think of it only as our true faith in our fellow class- men, which we possess in abundance. As Freshmen we fulfilled our duty by taking full possession of roomi two and ten; and by occupying more seats in the auditorium than had formerly been the rookery, rising from them, full conscious of our dignity, when the new faculty was asked to rise. Though green it was a lively greenness, for we took the opportunity the first new moon offered us and hiked up Deal canyon for a weinie and marshmallow roast. It was thor- oughly - njoyable in spite of our dividedness, as was the walk home to the lighted town. When Sophomores we gained our well deserved title of a lively class, for there was no sort of activity that did not appeal to us. Surely, no record was kept of the number of picnic ; we indulged in that year. But the ashes of our campfires remain in the various camping places of the valley. We also had the first party of the season, and later a skating party. We went enthusiastically into athletics, both boys and girls. The ooys, wildly cheered by the girls, defeated the haughty mid-year Senior basketball team, which was quite a triumph for our class, next to getting the championship. As Juniors our athletic ability continued. Our girls figured largely on the school basketball team, and the boys on both basketball and football school teams. In inter-class basketball we got the championship, both boys and girls. It certainly was great to have that cup handed to our captain in assembly. Socially we were more given over to dances and parties. We considered our leap year dance quite the most successful of the season. It was a lovely thing and well given. And then—just being Seniors. Really we should eulogize to great '.tngth on the pleasure, the joy of it, to occupy those long coveted seats in the auditorium. That portion of the room seems to be higher by several inches than that side occupied by the Juniors. You will all have your day, Under Classmen, but there is nothing quite like being there oneself. There are so many important things a Senior must do to be worthy of the name. First and foremost, he must desport himself with true dignity and con- descendingly gentle mien in the presence of all other classmen. There rests on his youthful shoulders the successful publicatoin of the Mimir. Then he attends the Junior-Senior banquet, not as host this time but as honored guest (whose name in this case is legion). He has an opportunity to ex- hibit his long suppressed acting ability on the furtherance of the Senior play. And alas! at last he has to graduate, which is no small task in more ways than one. Now. everyone knows that no class justifies its existence unless it
