klinetpflzour HEN any class reaches its senior year, although it is in many respects like all other senior classes, still it invariably has some one characteristic distinguishing it from all others. Some classes have left a record of high scholarship, some were eminent in athletics, some in literary pursuits g some are noted for originality in establishing college customs, some for perversity in disregarding them g some for this, and some for that. lf we should be asked what has been the distinguishing feature of Ninety-Four's career, we should think some moments before answering. Although good in scholarship, it is not, we believe, remarkably so, hardly above the average. Its athletics have been moderately good,-not especially so, its football and base ball tal- ent, taken as a whole, being decidedly below the average. lt has been, it is true, somewhat eminent in literary attainments, but we should hardly call that its most prominent characteristic. We can think of no college custom established by Ninety-Four, none ignored. But of all the senior classes that have come to our notice, we believe none can claim to have had more congeniality among its members than the present one. On all occasions its men tnor need we except the womenb, have seemed well pleased with each other's company. Their love of conviviality can be shown by the fact that more members were elected by the ancient order of R. G. F. from Ninety-Four than from any other class that ever became sophomores. Perhaps it was on account of this congeniality, that Ninety-Four's sophomore year was its star year. It was then that it became most renowned. Such a class, as might have been expected, was a formidable foe to the freshmen. To our own credit be it said that we did not dis- grace ourselves in their presence, though they tried us sorely at times. lt is pleasant for us to meet the seniors now on the common ground of upper classmen, and to talk over old times. We can with all heart- iness bid them God speedj' and we will be sorry indeed when they leave us to try their fortunes in the world. 22
