And now the four years are almost gone, and to-night as we lay aside for awhile our Surgery and Medicine and remind ourselves of all that has happened in those four years, it doesn't seem like such a short time after all. There has been plenty to do, goodness knows, and-well we did work pretty hard that first year, though, as the State Board approaches, a fellow does wish he had been a trifle more assiduous in his attentions to Chem- istry and Physiology. l imagine though, we were about as diligent as Freshmen generally are, and, not being familiar with modern methods of making good grades with little work, we plodded along with commendable zeal. Of course, the dissecting room was the delight of our Freshman hearts. You remember how curious we all were to see it, and how we wanted to get to work on our own particular stiff 3 how everybody was careful not to seem in the slightest degree to End the work other than enchanting. We seemed to realize that the fellow who could experience anything in the way of a queer sensation was not born to be a doctor, and like Br'er Rabbit, we were all eager to prove that we were bred and bawn in a brier-patch, and could think of no climate more agreeable to spend the rest of our days. l believe if you were to own up fair and square, you would have to admit that the first touch of that cold, clammy thing wasn't quite so pleasant as getting a good handshake from your best friend-yes, it was a queer sensation, and though we all played the game, it was some little time before we were on such good terms with our clammy ac- quaintance onthe dissecting table that we could eat our apples and pretzels in his presence without a feeling that-well, let us say that we felt it was rude when the poor fellow couldn't share them. But we got through all right, and though there wasn't much left of our friend when we left him, at any rate he had the honor of being the Hrst corpse with whom the members of the class of IQO4 had been what you might call exactly intimate. One thing that makes the time seem short as we look back over it, is that it has passed in so much the same way-a round of lectures, clinics, laboratory work and ward classes with examinations thrown in at pleasant i3
