’79. The close of our college life is at hand and the time is fast approaching when we must go forth from these gray walls to fight the battles of life. Although the change from the even tenor of student-life to the bustle and confusion of the outside world will be a great one, we feel well prepared for it. The training of the last four years has been constant and severe (as the thousands of gallons of kerosene offered up on midnight altars bear witness), yet it is just what we have required; and though we leave dear “ Old Union ” with regret, yet, like young athletes, we are waiting for the signal in order that we may dash on for name and fame. We go forth well satisfied with the record that we leave behind, knowing that there is no stain of dishonor or tarnish of defeat upon our banner. With¬ out lowering our standing in the class-room we were ever ready to compete with any and all on the campus or the river. No need now to speak of winning both “ rushes ”, of our Base¬ ball Nine, Foot-ball Eleven or Six-oared Crew. Sic transit gloria. We leave many pleasures to our successors. May they dream as serenely during lectures in Technology and de¬ rive as much satisfaction from the story of the Rhode Island coal-field as told to the last fifteen Senior Classes ! Soon we shall depart and the places that knew us once will know us no more. Ava Koci Epya ou Men of ’ 79 , in the future as in the past, and whatever be your station in life, strive as ye have striven and the result will be as satisfactory. j
