It is hardlv necessary to say that each one of these yonng ladies has done her dnty. The end crowns the whole so can not the end of the Senior year — that is commencement — speak for them? Perhaps one of the most enjoyahle eveninjjs spent in onr Alma Mater was cm Fehrnary loth. when the Class of ' 06 so royally entertained. The invited guests, consisting of memhers of the Senior Class and Faculty, were ushered into the chapel where tliev were gracefully and cordially received by the officers of the Junior Class. The chapel was artistically decorated and an hour was spent in this attractive place during which the social feature was rendered ver - jjleasant by mu.sic and song. At 9 130 the guests were escorted to the Refectory which was transformed into an ideal spot. The tables with their snowy cloths, their white candles in the handsome candelabras, the white carnations and little sprigs of fern lying here and there carried the Senior Class colors — white and green — out per- fectly. After ])artaking of the dainty refreshments, served in course, the intellectual programme began. Dr. Clewell acting as toast-master. It was midnight ere the last guest had taken her reluctant departure, each and everv one voting hearty thanks to the fair entertainers who had shown their s(.icial powers to such advantage. It is interesting to know that the Class just now ready to disband forever has scored more Sine Erratis in Biblical Literature than has any preceding class in the annals of the History of Biblical Literature in the college. And again, although previous attempts had been made, the first Aiuiual owes its origin to members of the Class of ' 05. And now the last page of our Class history is at hand — the farewell page. We have fought the good fight and we have come out as wise as Solomon, and now, we leave this history as a model to all succeeding classes — a history that would have made Herodotus himself exclaim well done! HiSTOR[. N, ' 05.

gentleiiian been alive, niiglit have contained valuable suggestions for C -Esar him- self in tlie bridge-making line. In our Sophomore year we organized for the first time.— not that it was neces- sary to have officers to keep the bold bad Sophomores in order, but because we had begun to feel our importance enough to claim organization. We selected our motto, •• ' irtue bears off the palm, our colors— green and white— and our pins, gold shields set with emeralds and pearls around the enamel which contained thj letters A. K. N., the Greek symbol of our motto. We have never changed our colors, motto, or pin, thus proving that though our brains have become more in- dented by •• Hamlet,- Longer English Poems. Childe Harold. and the like that our tastes are the same and that consistencv figures largclv as a trait among us. And then, almost like a stereoptical view, our Sophomore vear was waved by and we hailed the Junior. Being together in room, company, hfe, naturally pro- duces a closer class relation. Probably in our Junior year for the first time we felt that true class spirit which has meant so much to us. On September 1st, 1904, the one sad event of our college life cast a shadow of sorrow over tlie entire Class when we lost one of our most honored members— Josephme Seddon. She had faithfully worked up from Class A, successfully completmg her Junior year, when the Angel of Deatli presented her with the di- ploma of another graduation than ours. And so she passed, lamented by all who knew her, mto that fair realm where the weary are at rest. Finally, we reached the coveted position of Senior. We were at last to be re- yarded for ,iur years of hard labor by the Oxford cap and gown. And what one of us d,d not consider it reward enough when first she donned her dark apparel and jomed the long procession which filed up Main Street to see-but mostly to be seen ! W hat one of us did not feel her ambition kindled to do wonders ! for Resistless burns the fever of renown Caught from the strong contagion of the gown.
