SHORT ff long time ago we began trying to find out what 00 might be made to equal. At first we were only Q an indiscriminate collection of unknown quantities, but after the preliminary shifting, additions and subtractions, behold us! a problem, the Freshman Glass. This problem was surpris- ingly unlike the other problems of our experience at that time, it set to work to solve itself. The unknown quantities arranging themselves, some quickly and some with difficulty, in different series of equations, their values gradually became clear. In this process, alas! some factors had to be eliminated. Had they but proved to be constants much might have been different. But in spite of this loss the class felt, by the time that its second Sep- tember came, that the results of the problem made a very fair showing. Yes, the equation had been solved, so far we had turned out well, but other tests were in store for 1900. We now went through a course of complete chemical change. Some of ns turned out to be distinctly acid in our nature, others, perhaps, showed light and volatile, but it all served simply to prove that our basal metal was of good quality. It must be confessed that our reactions were often accompanied with much heat, and that an occasional explosion took place when we came into contact with the combustible substance known as 1901, but the ebullitions produced thereby were not without use in the process of our for- mation,-indeed we think they have helped to unite the various substances among us in a stable compound. In our third year, friction among us was reduced to a mini- mum. . We learned to dispose our forces so that we could over- come great resistance with the least possible loss of power, and to store up in ourselves potential energy against that time of need, Senior year. This energy we have since found, somewhat to our surprise, not quite equal to all things as we then thought it to be, but that is a lesson that belongs to our last year. We looked upon ourselves as pushing a heavy load of responsibility up an inclined plane, while others were sliding joyously and thoughtlessly down the same. Since then-but again I am talk- ing about Senior experiences. Perhaps we may also be willing to admit, now, that we secretly considered ourselves as little centers of light to the college world, or as wonderful, brilliant electrical forces, not yet understood but destined to give the world opportunity for strange discoveries. In our last year new forces have been brought to bear upon 51
