figuratively died. As we were responsible we undertook the funeral. One night we made a coffin and put into it what we supposed to be the remains, but afterward found that it came from behind the barn. We always wonder why the Sophs felt insulted. They felt so bad that they really did come out for a scrap. Of course we did them up in the end, but proceed- ings were materially checked for a time by “ Cuskie ” Farnham running amuck with an iron-bound bucket to the demoralization of Eddie Conie’s hat and part of his nose. This was about the last of our excitement until the Sophomore banquet. That night we swiped “ Bill Nye,” the toast-master. Weren’t the Sophs wild ? They actually got up courage to wet Nig Swett in bed. This was the last exciting episode until after the long vacation and our return as Sophomores. Didn’t the Freshmen look green, though? And haven’t they lived up to their looks well ? Didn’t they keep awful quiet about the base-ball game, and didn’t they crow when they tied us at foot- ball, and that same day registered a vow never to play another class foot- ball game, but to let their honors rest on that one game? But then, such shallow honors last quick and we don’t care now, for we have long since ceased to hope for another dig at them. And now as we recall these little incidents we can say that we were true Sophomores. We respected the College customs and followed them. We did nothing to hurt our College, but everything in our power for the good of the Freshies. Our labors in this direction were not appreciated, so at the beginning of our Junior year we transferred our fatherly interests to the new class. But we soon found that they could take care of themselves, and now all our energy is expended for the good of our class and the College. In fact, every meritorious cause has found its most active workers in ’98, and we look with pride on our past record, for it shows clearly that our class has been the factor which has enabled this institution to expand so that now it is worthy of being called “ The University of Maine.” 28
