mil (CLuiii Siistnnj striving during FAKE up our |k'ii for the consummation of this narrative with varying degrees of emotion. With the writing of the Senior Class History conies the realisation that our days at Ursinus are almost spent, and that the valiant little hand that ha- Ixirne the standard of 1911 through the vicissitudes of four years of college life i- alxuit to he thrust forth u|x u the stormy and tcm|K-stuous sea of life, The Class, as a united body, will soon cease to exist, hut the undaunted spirit that waged such unequal warfare in undergraduate days will ever Ik- with each one as he pursues his isolated way toward his ideal. We regret the severing of these ties, and yet- have we not arrived at the goal toward which we have been these four pleasant years? W e stood on the threshold of our college career, a hand of fifteen trembling Freshmen, and faced a prosjiect more dc-olate than usually darkens the vision of tir-t year students. The smallest class to enter Ursinus for years, we. in turn, faced the largest to which the college bail ever opened her doors. The conflict wa- prolonged, but in the end numbers told, and we liowed to our antagonists in our first battle. Many struggles for supremacy followed, some of which we would rather forget, but many on which we love to dwell in proud retrosjiection. Suffice it to say that the end of our Freshman year found us a more mature band of students, still hoping for the favor of Fortune in the predicament in which our numbers had placed u . The opening of our Sophomore year brought no relief in the matter of reinforcements, ami again we faced the battle of college life with our number at the original mark of fifteen. Inter-class spirit drooped that year, for we made use of the experience of our first year, and once having decided that discretion was the better part of valor we followed that policy to the end. With the beginning of our Junior year the field of knowledge broadened before us. and we grasped, in a measure, the immensity of the intellectual vision. Through the medium of Logic and Kconomic theory, the | ossibilitics of the up] er classes were unfolded Ik-fore 11-. and we drank to the dregs from the cup of higher knowledge for which we had been thirsting. With tile aid of the sublime Xamiette we conquered the rudiments of elementary speech, and. under her divine guidance, developed an oratorical power like unto that of Demosthenes. The advent of our Senior year brought ns face to face with the mysteries of Philosophy. Under the faithful guidance of Morlev we were conducted through the maze of Hthical precepts, and at last found ourselves enmeshed in the intricacies of the metaphysical theories, from the dark recesses of which we gro| c for enlightenment. The members of the Class have Ik-cii active in all the numerous phases of college life, and have done their part well toward the advancement of the cause of Ursinus. Many rays of light have emanated from the little hand of 1911. to shed their radiance far while we pursued the course of learning. May the reflection never grow dim. but may it in-crea-e in intensity until its scintillating brightness bathe- Ursinus in a light -o dazzling that the world will look with wonder upon our Alma Mater dear. 30
