The Class of 1905 The sand in the glass at last is run. Our college life has reached its close. But with the setting of its sun A brighter light in the new dawn glows. A light whose beams shall point the way To a life beyond the college walls, A world where each his part must play When that stern bugler. Duty, calls. And in the playing let each one be Noble and brave, steadfast and true. So that old ' 05 ' s memory Shall receive all praise and honor due. Then in that last roll-call beyond the skies I ' nfalteringly shall each man answer Here. And stand and look his Master in the e es And in the looking know no fear.

In athletics, we hcki an important place and gave to the varsity eleven two of its star players — Hadley and Shannonhousc. — while our Class team was too strong for others, for we challenged all but played none. For the varsity baseball nine, we furnished four men. — Chrcitzbcrg. IIowlc. Hadley and Shannonhousc. Our Junior year was but a repetition of our former years, and laurels new were placed upon our brow. Our football team drubbed the doughty Sophs., and when our dirt-begrimed gridiron heroes left the field of battle, the score stood 5 — o in our favor. This vear our Class put out five men for the varsity eleven — Abernethy, Hadley. Lykes, Scifert and Squires, and three for baseball — Chreitzburg. Hadley and Howie. Our second banquet was the next event thai brought our Class to notice, and it is hardly necessary here to say that this second dinner was even more successful than the first. Our Class was given credit by the Faculty for instituting such affairs as these, and we were proud indeed. Our next attempt to place the Class before the world in which we lived was made in organizing a Dramatic Club. which met with every possible success. Several of our members demonstrated their feminine ability to a perfection. The play ' s success was much due to Mr. Bowen. the College bursar, who gave his every thought and idle moment to its development, and the Class extends its thanks to him for thus aiding us in gaining fame. Commencement was now near, and we were all jubilant over the thoughts of soon being dignified Seniors. With the closing of our Junior year, our Class history practically ended. At the beginning of our Senior year, the Class met its Waterloo, and the facts from then on concern us not as a Class, but as a body of its truest members, known as Thugs, whose history, whose origin, and whose motives are amplified in other pages of this annual. Good-bye. A. and M. ; we go with thousands of others into the cold, harsh world of strife and enervating toil. In the day-dawn of life ' s battle we pause in peaceful contemplation, sadly gazing, seriously pondering, with a coiubination of curiosity, anguish and alarm. But we find refuge in the future — it is then that magical horizons spread out before us ; it is then that such splendid visions appear to us ; it is then that we hope to bestow wonders upon our old College, which form its true glory, its true wealth, and its true pride.
