History of the Class of 1902. WF. are only a few — five — but in a small class we learn tn nnderstanil and liive each other better. The august managers of the Axmai. comniandeil us to organize, and (irganize we did, choosing Anna P.aker. who is a universal favorite anil one of our brightest girls, for president. ( hir class has members of both the representative societies of the Institute an l of some of the smaller clubs. V ' e have had a hard year, but we feel all the more gratified at being able to graduate. Many a weary time have we burned the midnight oil in honor of Horace, and plodded through Trigonometry with its obstructing Logs. Thanks to our feelin,g teacher, we have passed all these obstacles. At the repeated request of our long-suffering niaitresse, we have at last begun to make trembling attempts at parley-vous-ing. We shall always feel grateful to this dear teacher for her sweet patience and gentle considera- tion. Shall we ever forget the times we had over our Morals and Con- sciences and the many anecdotes that relieved the tedium when our wits were wandering? Surely we Iiave learned this liranch of tlie philosophy of life — how to get as much fun out of it as possible. W e have been initiated into the literary treasures of our language by our sympathetic poet, and we hope to continue our search for them long after we have left the quiet walls of Peace. Thanks to our persevering teaclier. wliose motto seems to be Xil des- peranrlum, we have passed through science and come off with living colors. And now all those struggles are over ancl we shall scmn be out in the world to try our hopes and aspirations. Mav we have success in our various vocations. Et haec olim meminisse juvaliit.
