Eluniur Qthiturial O YOU, the members of the noble Class of 1912, it is that we as a seal s alfa ,ga U Q last token of esteem blfd you a fond farewell. lt has been but two short years that we have labored with n you in this, the Science of Sciencesf, yet the principles you have taught us-the examples you have impressed upon us--the assist- WM' X 'i ance you have given us-andthe good fellowship you have ex- tended toward us shall ne'er be forgotten as long as a spark of life exists in the last of us. To you, this occasion means a brealcng of bounds to enter into the broad problems of life, and to us a filling of your place as Seniors, which you have done so well. It is only when we will have reached your present situation that we will fully appreciate the difficulties and seemingly endless tasks that you have so suc- cessfully completed. V This jump from student career to that of practicing your chosen profession is what you have looked forward to for the past three years, and hasundoubt- edly inspired you with the highest of ideals. Now although fully realizing what disadvantages we will be compelled to work under in your absence, yet we stand hand in hand with you in the climax of your glory and wish you even more suc- cess than you have attained here. VVe feel confident 'that your good work and never-tiring perseverance will so raise our standard as it has never been before, and in so doing you will amply repay those who have made you. Could we but express ourselves as our conscience dictates, in this otherwise futile attempt to wish you well, we would have more completely fulfilled our dutyg but since words must suffice, we the Class of 1913, do wish you again and for all a most prosperous and happy future. w. s.
