its members, hereby pledge ourselves to fulfill that promise. Her men are especially broad and cosmopolitan in their views, she boasts of her share in the victories of our college in athletics, she has her representatives on the football gridiron, on the tennis-court, and on the baseball field, she takes an equal stand in literature, some of the names on her roll being also seen on the editorial staff of the “Mag’’and on the executive staff of the literary societies, and in University affairs generally she has a telling influence. She is unique in all of her acts, her celebration of the holidays and the honor she pays to the memory of the chieftains and heroes of our glorious country. This year Father George’s birthday was commemorated by this band of intellectual colossi in various ways and in sundry places. Some strolled into the wilds of the surrounding mountains where they could lay their weary bones down on the verdure and dream of Maud Mullers left behind, while others less fortunate—perhaps—went in quest of mashes, some gamb(o)led on the green, and others could be seen assiduously pushing pool-balls. The connection of a man with the Junior Law Class is perhaps the greatest epoch in the life of a college bred lawyer. It is at this time that a young man most needs an unerring and definite finger-post to direct his way and guide him on a certain road to self-respect, esteem and confidence, without which he will never succeed. It is here that he puts off boyish things and learns to act as a man, to speak as a man, ’tis the time when resolves are made, ambitions awakened, when he begins to dream of taking a creditable stand before the courts of his country and of making for himself a reputation as a jurist. And this class, when these aims arc attained, will not take all the credit to themselves, for it has this guide in our most honorable faculty, and any sue' cess which any one of its members may attain will in great measure be due to them. And if the members of this class do themselves and their professors justice, they need have no fear of the senior year, or of the time when they come to face a jury or bench ; they will have the mighty weapon of a knowledge of the law, and ability to resist attack, and though we will regret to sever the ties which bind us to “old Junior ’96,’’ we take comfort in the thought that many of us may yet be associated together, and trust that not one of us will ever have cause to regret this beginning in our chosen profession, and that all will reflect credit on those who directed our young minds and ideas, thus “bestowing honor where honor is due.” Knox Jones.
