C|)e ©rigtn an fltstorp of tlje Class of Jltneteen imntiretJ anti XEtoelte The following lines will tell to you The history of a mighty crew, Who three long years did wisely rule At the good old Lowell Textile School. The year 1909 will go down in the annals of the Lowell Textile School as one of the brightest years of her career, for, in the fall of that year, the class of 1912 entered this seat of learning. This was the largest class that had ever entered the school and during the three years we have spent here we have lost but few of our original number. When we first arrived in Lowell we were taken in hand by the class of 1911, who endeavored to amuse themselves at our expense. It was noticeable how cmickly 1911 found other sources of amusement as soon as we became organized. Our class numerals appeared on the river rocks shortly after this to prove that, as a class, we were very much alive. The Freshman Class Banquet was held April 12, 1910, and a strong class spirit was shown, as nearly every member was gathered around the festive board. This same spirit was shown by our class during the entire three years in the manner in which it entered, as a body, into all the social and athletic life of the school. The fall of 1910 brought us back to Lowell for the second stage of our journey, in numbers nearly as strong as we were when we left the preceding spring. Our first duty, that of gathering the new arrivals together and bringing them under our jurisdiction, was carried out b} us religiously and the work was thoroughly done. The class of 1913 showed little desire to disobey our teachings, and on the one occasion that they did try to exert themselves they were shown the folly of such an undertaking. 24
