THE NINETEEN TWENTY-SEVEN DARDA Class History ON the twenty-second day of September in the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred twenty-five, there entered into these Halls of Learning nineteen seekers. Some of them came up from Trevecca Academic regions, while others journeyed from Foreign Countries. They were all with one accord in search of a treasure called Knowledge, which, when found, would give them a richer, fuller and more useful life. To make their work more effective they organized and chose as their leader Mr. Francis Hemmerly, and called themselves the Junior Class of Twenty-six. Their search led them into fields of Mathematics, Science, Language and History. These new lands held many dangers, the most powerful being the danger of Flunking, but this was victoriously overcome by midnight oil and ambition. From time to time other young searchers were added to their band while others dropped out to go to other states, and two anchored on the Fsle of Matrimony. At the beginning of the second year there were sixteen continuing their search. They reorganized and elected as their president, Mr. Homer Austin, and with pride changed their names to the Senior Class of Twenty-seven, and took for their motto, Labor conquers all things. Their colors were blue and white, and their Mower the for- get-me-not. This journey was not all through places of hard work and discouragement, but happened upon pleasant ways and they enjoyed together wiener roasts, outings, and many other good times. Twice they engaged in memorable contests between the Reds and Blues, which waxed warm and interesting. They journeyed on until now they have reached th; Gates of Graduation, whence they will part their ways each to continue his search alone in different fields. May they continue on until one by one they shall be decorated with the medal of Success. — FsTHFU MliRCER. 24
