ass ist rey 9 5. J' .29 When the fires of union and patriotism burned low upon the altars of Greece, the embers were collected, and fanned into new life by Spartan zeal and love of country, the light which beamed from this altar, shone upon the field of Ther- mopylae, lighted the future pathway of a people, a11d completely changed the history of a nation. Likewise when many qualities which are exemplary, showing the true and determined inner life of an institution, and bringing honor and renown to the same, had, through Senior drowsiness and Sophomore timidity become greatly deter- iorated, Mt. Union rejoiced in that she could place her hopes of increased great- ness in her class of 'o5. The record of our class this year is in many respects similar to the two previous ones of brilliant achievement, only that this one adds new and still greater victories to o,ur noble history. Three banquets were held this year, as usual being held at the homes of Miss Bracher, Miss Roberts and Miss Hartzell, the fact of which the Seniors learned only the next morning from seeing the glaring posters in various parts of the town. To write of all our achievements, interesting as they would be, would occupy much time and lead us far beyond the limited space granted us in this book. In regard to athletics, we are seconil to none, being represented on all the teams, and having been honored by two captaineies and one managership. The Class of 'o5 has reason to be proud of every one of its members. We do not scrap among ourselves, but with the different tribes of the enemy, and that only when peaceable means will not serve our purpose In our class we have none who lack brains. For orators and debaters we are 11ot wanting, but on the other hand stand at the front. The honor of representing Mt. Union in the inter-collegiate oratorical con- test was won by a member of this class. It is putting it moderate to say we are distinguished in all lines, and we have become so by marking our land and sowing to the stakes? As the new day is marked by the rising of the sun, so the new day which is dawning upon Mt. Union will ever be marked by that class which has hastened forward the eventful period, that most famous of classes, 'o5. HISTORIAN 'o5. X
