Hirelight You have all heard of pipe dreams and also of other kinds of dreams, and some of you have had dreams before an open fireplace. Sit in front of a large grate with burning logs, turn the lights low and draw your chair up. Now put on a piece of paper to stir up a blaze. See it flare up, burn brightly and die away into ashes. Does not that remind you of your college course? How brilliant and animated it has been! How cheerful, but sadly short, it was! And now we have the embers, embers of memories which shall never die, but shall glow and shine in our hearts throughout our lives. Remember the Freshman class of 11? The four years was started in the same active and wide-awake manner in which it is closing. Remember the jolly ride to Joel and the painting of numerals in the city of Moscow? The brave Freshmen went to Pullman and posted the sad funeral notices of W. S. C.’s hopes. Later in the year came the Freshman Glee, the first big class dance. And on the “Seventeenth of Ireland” all the busy Sophs were tied hand and foot. Truly this class never has been slow. As Sophs the same jolly class was even more active. Her members entered into every phase of college activity. Her athletes and debaters were on every ’Varsity team. The greatest social event of that year was the Sophomore Frolic The decorations, exquisite and complete, showed the genius and ability of those who wore the little red caps. But on St. Patrick’s day the host of green Freshies outnumbered the gallant Sephomores and tied them up. And the picnic which took the place of the English examination in the spring will never be forgotten. Even the instructor enjoyed that. The third year of this glorious class makes a period of 19 Haucies even more activity and greater usefulness. In athletics six out of the football nine, five of the track team, four basketball players and more than half the basketball team were Juniors. Four of the six intercollegiate debaters were from the ranks of the class of 1911. Five members of the Argonaut staff, five of the six members of the debate council and three mem- bers of the executive board of the A. S. U. I. were Juniors. The social events of the year were not neglected. The Junior Prom was most successful. On Campus day the class took a leading part and did much to make the day pleasant. In the production of the “Gem or THe Mountains” the class adopted a conservative policy. The binding of the book was not equal to some others, but the resulting deficit was not overwhelming. And this is the last year. Again, as Seniors, the Levens are active. They fill places of responsibility and mold the opinion of the student body. Every member of the executive board is a Senior. As during last year, the debate council has but one member who is not from the class of tg911, and three of the 'Varsity debate teams are led by the Seniors. y Commencement will take three of those wearing the foot- ball “I” and three of our basketball team. Every organiza- tion in the University will feel the loss. There is more to be done yet before the year is done, But, see! The fire is dying, and so are our college days. They glow with a steady brightness, but even after the coals there are still the embers and the ashes. Commencement comes and the college years are over. They are gone forever. But after all commencement is just the beginning, and the dearest memories of the good old college days will go with us through life.
