istory of the lass off'9 other reference, for I know the memories are only pleasant. Be- fore one of our staid old bachelors took his final departure from Springfield, in the shade of our beautiful Forest Park, he played the part of the youth in the familiar song Over the Banistern with a similar result. OUR SECOND YEAR. HERE was quite a change in our ranks in the second year. Of the men who entered with us in '95, Bartlett, Downey, Kesty, jessop, Slater, White, Heywood and Hebbard were not with us. Nor did Clarke return for a longer course. Browne, Davis, Foss, Greeley, Lehmann and Berry entered for a two years course. We thought we were to be Seniors for two years, but a quar- tet was found which made a class of '97, and we were doomed to a year as Middlers. But then we were the first class that ever bore the title, so we did not mind it much. The events that will always stand out in our memories when we think of our Middle year are numerous. That year the Student Association was organized, reduced to fundamental principles, put upon a 'fworking basis, and operated. It was during that year that the grounds about the Dromitory were graded by theistu- dents and faculty. Ninety-eightl' figured quite prominently in this as originators, developers and workers of the scheme, although by no means do we claim credit for the whole. We believe in giving honor to whom honor is due, and all come in for a share in this case. It was a school aliair, not a class movement. The social lite of the school was very pleasant during this year. The open nights in the gym, and the sports and games with outside teams, v -.Q 5 , . were occasions which afforded ourselves and Eieudi llilifpiallllt. Among the special events of prominence were, the cling UFII at the home of Mrs.Woods, the receivingof rmriwl the nigh of election day, the Ice Carnival, the Yankee jvc: by the wives, of the instructors, the tendered by Hr. Lee, and the promenade on the evening before Commenimed. ' PERCY CUSHING. t E were caused to moum the loss of one of au' mates during the middle year. Percy Cushing was one of those stricken with the fever during the Junior year. He came back among us later, but was not as strong as before. A severe cold settled upon him, and he was obliged to leave school. He was taken to his home in Montreal, and later went tn Denver, Colorado, where he finally passed away on the morning of De- cember twenty. Loved by all, his dcath was a permvml loss U his classmates. M. O. C. , HE M. O.C. proved a great source of pleasure to the Sec- retarial men afier our cousre in physical training was com- pleted. Golf became quite popular, especially when Mt. Holyoke College girls were learning the game. They were cn- thusiastic players. and their visit to our school led to the Ofgllli- tion of a club at their college. The M. O. C. outings were very successful, but the fishing trip on the afiernoon of April 17th would have proven disastrous but for the intervention of Honest John, the only gentleman in the crowd.
