Junior History But there was a time in 0111' history when we were struggling with ttrlirigfi T last we have the honor of e; Hing ourselves juniors. and other studies nearly as dith'enlt, that we looked heyond with a feeling of uneasiness when seeking for the junior goal. Those who are now fortunate in being juniors are proud of their past three years Of history. Cmmneneing in ,09 with a motto, itCon- tent to labor and t0 wait,v we have carried its spirit with 1137 and expect to keep it with 11s as long as we battle with the trials and misfortunes of life. Beginning 0111' college career with a eiass numbering one hundred and thirteen, we have twereome freshman troubles and sophomoric trials, reaching the junior ranks with a elase 0f forty-six. As to where those are that are not with 115, we know not. Perhaps. some have found that 0111' mess hail food did not agree, with a delicate physique, and, dis- eo11rag'ed, have returned home to search for better itthings, 01' else, some may have left 115 through the Fascinating intlnenee of 77 Cooper D. and his tCMath f, 01' 319 'ehanee some have been carried away within that delightful odor, H. 2 S, that Dr. Wait 1'eeo111- mended to 11s as being the most ictrag'rantii in existenee. Tint we de not attempt to en11111e1'ate the causes which inthieneed 0111' conn'ades 10 leave us, for every one realizes what troubles a eel- lege 1111111 is heir to. Though with over half of 0111' friends missing we have not become discouraged, for we are still striving to add new records to 0111' ah'eady ereditahie ones. In every important department of the University 0111' class is well represented. 93 26 Seventeen of 0111' 111e111ber5 volunteered at the heginning 0f the first term, in the military ttepartn'ient. Since then one has been promoted to the position of eeennd lieutenant.

T 11119 with a clear record and with a determination to make a better one in the coming: year, we extend to the class of 1902 0111' best wishes for success, when they depart from the ttHillii to give us their places as seniors. W' e heartily thank them for the many kindnesses they have given 113, 21nd 0111' great hope is to leave 0111' eoiiege career with as bright a prospect as they have for honoring and 111aking a greater name for 0111 beloved institution.
