12 VOX COLLEGII We thank you for your kind wishes. We certainly hope that we may be as successful in our work as you have been in yours. We also wish to thank you for your kindness towards us during our college life. Your aspirations have been our as- pirations and your successes have delighted us. They will be a beacon light for us to follow next year. We prize our seniors and we shall miss you. The hard paths to knowledge will be smoothed for us when we re- member how you so nobly travelled to the goal of success. Not in the sunshine, not in the rain. Not in the night of stars untold. Shall we ever all meet again. Or be as we were in the days of old; But as ships pass or more cheerily Having changed tidings upon the sea. So we are richer by those we know. And they are not poorer we trust by us. Miss Pauline Ivy, representative of the junior class, then proposed a toast to the graduates of ' 06. We wish to congratulate you, one and all, for the efficient work which you have done during the year. We as a class look forward with great ex- pectation to next year and our one ambition will be to follow in the footsteps of the illustrious class of ' 06. What a joy to have those long cov- eted privileges — heading church divi- sion, walking and shopping privi- leges, to wear a class pin and twirl a class ring round our finger. Such will be our privileges, and if we make as good use of them as you as a class have done, then we too will be worthy of congratulation in ' 07. Wishing you once more an even greater degree of success than has at- tended your senior year at O. L. C. Miss Blanche O ' Hara responded for the graduates. On behalf of the seniors it is my great pleasure to return hearty thanks to you for your very cordial greetings and this sumptuous re- past. If you have respected us for the honors we have won and the privi- leges we as seniors have enjoyed dur- ing the past year, let us say that we wish you even greater honor and re- spect during your senior year. May you achieve your highest aims and make the very best of your final year from every point of view. Again, we thank you for the kindness shown throughout, and hope that you will find realization greater than anticipation, as we have found it to be this year. We sincerely wish you the great- est success and happiness and bid you, dear juniors, a fond good-bye. The history read by Miss Ardelia Conn, brought back all the achieve- ments of the past year. The proph- ecy by Miss Torie Gierke provided much laughter and amusement, by its keen insight into the future. The class poem by Miss Grace Robinson was then read. It was a sweet little poem extend- ing hearty good wishes to each member of the class. The National Anthem was then sung and the jolly graduates ' dinner had come to an end. ■H- ■» • Miss Teskey (tying one of the girls bows) — Well (beaux) are a burden.
