College They say life is a highway and its milestones are the years, And now and then theres a toll gate where you pay your way with tears. Its a rough road and a steep road, and it and far, But leads at last to a golden Town where are. A new road was stretching before us. had dreamed of this stepfthe approach college life of tour years. We expected tivity, and yet as we began to cope with we realized that college required effort. We enjoyed additions to our class w make the road easier to travel and new triumphant. We participated in the various act stretches broad golden Houses For years we to an alluring interesting ac- new problems ho helped to victories more ivities of the Freshmen 1935 school, even in basketball-for a while-and then left the field to Qmust I say?j more skillful players. But Rhetoric was the bane of our existence, and even the use of the syllogism didn't make us thrill at our theme productions. However, all this was forgotten when the Sophomores invited us on a hike into the coun- try, where a picnic supper served after we had tired our- selves out playing indoor and other games helped us dis- miss classroom cares for awhile. One of the pleasant diversions along the way arrived in the form of an April Fools party. The boys invited the girls with invitations written entirely backwards- but what could one expect? We arrived, dressed in a conglomeration of ragged clothes, only to find our hosts dressed in their best. The year was a continual round of activity and en- joyable co-operation, and we hope as a class in the future to make a real contribution to our Spring Arbor. -PAULINE JONES The Seniors of 1935 It was with great fear and trembling, and yet with eager expectation that we, the class of 1935, started the year as Seniors. We had a vague idea of what it would mean to be dignified Seniors and what would be expected of us. Still we had to live and learn. Now that our life as Seniors has drawn to its close, and we look back to the various events that have special significance to us, we are filled with a longing for those busy, happy days to return. Yet, we still have the memories and can live again those days in reminiscence. Knowing we could not have our former honorary member, Miss Marjorie Stone, who had guided us through two previous years, we chose our new president and his wife, Dr. and Mrs. Nystrom, to succeed her. They have proved to be very good advisers and have helped us through many difficult places. One night last Fall-a night never to be forgotten! we Seniors with the College Sophomores skipped to Wolf Lake. The whole school bid us a hearty So long, and wished us a good time. A rousing, noisy night we had spooking around and keeping folks awake. And what a breakfast that was of pancakes and sausage the next morning! A few weeks later we entertained our sister class, the high school sophomores, on a hike to a woody grove about two miles from Spring Arbor. We would like to make our accomplishments in ath- letics. The Senior girls took the cup for the basketball tournament, and the boys the tournament in baseball. Throughout these last four years we have been en- deavoring not only to make good in school, but to build character, that is why we chose for our motto, On Unto Perfection. There have been several parties and class gatherings which we have enjoyed. Not only have we shared our social gatherings with each other, but we have worked together and mingled our sorrows and disappointments. Now that we are separating we are filled with sadness. But we have promised ourselves a reunion to call up old memories and rejoin old friends which we knew in our beloved Alma Mater, dear old S. A. S. -RUTH BAKER cc an
