Class History of 1904. After a period of hard studying and patient waiting, we have at last arrived at that stage of our college career when it becomes us to uphold the standard of college work as Juniors and as publishers of the GRIST. At the beginning of the year we were pleased to increase our number by receiving two members of an earlier class who had left college to go out into the world, but who could not resist the advantages and pleasures of the old school life and so returned to spend another two years of painstaking work in our midst. Our only agricultural member did not return last fall, but we hear that he is doing well as a telegraph despatcher and seems to have ex- changed his agricultural ambitions for something more remunera- tive and less arduous. During the three years of our college course it is needless to say that we have encountered many difficulties. None of them unsur- mountable, however, and now they are all things of the past, on which we may look back with a smile. As we come to the end of the Junior year, we feel the exhilaration of the racer who gathers his remaining powers, with the goal full in view, for its home spirit. At the end of the Sophomore year graduation is too vague a thing to occupy the young student ' s mind ; it is too far off, too many things may happen meantime and it does not give him the stimulus which he feels later. As he finishes the Sophomore year a feeling of satisfaction comes over him as he reviews the battles already won and contemplates those yet before him. Although this year has been a very busy one with us, we have succeeded in retaining the reputation for high scholarship we made in our first year. Numerous excursions have been taken by various members of the class during the year ; notably, one on wheels to Hope Valley and an inspection trip through the principal electrical plants of Providence. Taking everything into consideration we have had a most pros- perous year and we now wish to thank all those who have kindly helped us in collecting material for this Grist and to beg their indul- gence for any mistakes or knocks which we have made inten- tionally or otherwise. Rah! Rah! Rah! for Nineteen-four. We are few but we need no more. We have the unusual honor of having one of our class an instructor in the college and feel ourselves somewhat above the others in this
