woo Class Conors, White and Gold. Class Yell, Whoop-la-ra! Whoop la-rep Walk up, Chalk up, Upidee ! Ninteen-liundred ! Yes-sir-re W HEN we first afflicted this College with our presence, we made a big bluff at being original and got so far as to adopt a class constitution, which was something totallv unheard of here at that time. To be sure there never was but one meeting where we followed its provisi ons in the slightest degree or gave it any thought whatever, but still we have it. We hope you have all noticed the extreme dignity which has characterized our deportment this year. Always quiet and cor- rect, we have been models of “Senior dignity’’ and for the better fulfillment of our college duties have kept in close touch with the Faculty. (Take for example the case of Sb— e and Mr. T-l-r.) Now if any one doubts or denies this statement, that simply shows that he is laboring under the direful idiosyncrasies of a gigantic hallucinatory phenomenon. (Or else we are). Yet, in spite of a few such weaknesses, it is with a certain degree of justifiable pride that we think of our success in some undertakings. The Junior Musicale given last year was the first program of classical music presented here through the efforts of the students (and we hope it will not be the last) and was an undeniable suc- cess. We have also had more than our share of men on the ath- letic teams. These with our success with the Grist ’oo, and in managing several receptions and balls, and a general prominence in College activities, make a very satisfactory record.
