Senior Class History “nrHR moving finger writes, and having writ, moves on.” 'The l ook of deeds done in our college years is closed. Our forms are to pass from St. Mary’s hallowed walls.—Wc leave behind but the names and memories of our years inscribed on the scroll of time. Four short years and the day has come when the class of 1929 can no longer emblazon on the record scroll deeds of success and achievement. Our college days are over. But as the doors of St. Mary’s close behind us a new vista meets our view, a new and broader vista—the doors have opened upon the world, where each one of us must p’av his part in the great drama of life. The linger of time has written “finis” to our college years. Four short years, filled to overflowing with eventful happenings, have passed since we first entered St. Mary’s as college men. But from the very beginning we made it evident that as time went on we would undoubtedly write a full page in the annals of St. Maurc’s before we were through. Mow well we have kept our promise is told in this book. Our first year, the beginning of what seemed to us an endless task, wc passed with glory, and the scroll of time carries on it the triumphs of our class in every line of student endeavor. With the first milestone passed we entered upon our Sophomore year, which but duplicated the feats of our Freshman year. And so our Junior year, when first we felt the responsibility of upper classmen. But the spirit of the Class of ’29 was only heightened bv the added trust. And now our Senior year. The time nears when the book of our college life will be closed—forever. And as the day of parting draws nearer and nearer we face the future undaunted, unafraid, with a feeling of mingled pride and regret. We fear not. for our teachers and associations at St. Mary's have shaped our lives to combat the world's hardest battles. We are proud of our record—of the fact that we have been able to keep alive that old St. Mary’s spirit and that we have earned the right to be called “St. Mary’s Men. The time for parting has come, and as we say a fond goodbye to St. Maurc’s and to our associates it is with a feeling that though many miles may separate us. nor time nor distance can ever dissolve the bond which keeps us ever together—the SIM KIT OF ST.
