Senior Class Song. v (Tune: “Mister Dooley.’’) W HEN you perceive the scroll of fame you’ll feel a certain thrill, For at its summit stands the name we placed there with a will; And mighty was the effort, for you see our ranks are thin, The upper classmen thot they all would do us with a vim. Chorus: Our class united, our faith we plighted, To rail) ' round the Garnet and Champagne; Mid gridiron smashes and Cupid’s dashes, Alike uphold naught seven in its fame. As we do tread the hallowed halls whence wisdom has its birth, The blaze of knowledge round us does disperse all other mirth; Then all do pay us homage, for they know we ' ve made a hit, They wish they could surpass us, but they can’t, no, not a bit. — Cho. No doubt you wonder at the strains and envy our renown, In mathematical glory we will surely gain our crown; “Under the Bamboo Tree” we’ve sat and studied out the stars, Encircling a something that was n ever up in Mars. — Cho. We all have hopes that our dear name will always be sublime, For tender memories we do have of this our sacred shrine; And ever will the spirits of bright heroes be most dear, When gentle evening breezes, waft this song unto the ear. — C ho. 25

History of the Senior Class. v M ODESTY compels me, O gentle reader, to withhold from you the achievements of the Class of 1907. Only an impartial historian can render to the Class of 1907 its just due. The good, that men do, lives after them, and when the last member of the class steps off the world stage, may there arise an historian equal to the occasion, and able to faithfully record the deeds of this class in pure and undefiled English. The demeanor of this class, in college, has been characteristic of fitting dignity and forbearance and patience; nobleness and honesty in small things. Would that I was able to simply narrate the accomplishments of this class; but this is too great a theme to admit of anything so prosaic. As I turn the leaves of fancy back for four short years and perceive the con- dition of the Freshmen, who entered Muhlenberg College one fine September morning, in 1903, and compare them with the body of men now ready to enter the battle of life, I can not help but be astonished. The boys, whose minds have, for four years, been nourished and enlightened by the radiance emanating from the throne of knowledge, are now developed men, eager for the fray and sure of victory. The outcome, time alone will tell, but with “Decus Summum Virtus” ever before them, I believe the members of this class destined: “Th’ applause of list’ning seuates to command, The threats of pain and ruin to despise, To scatter plenty o’er a smiling land, And read their history in a nation’s eyes.” Historian. 26
