CLASS HISTORY By EDWARD P. SARGEANT. m HE NIGHT we Seniors have been looking for- D :3? ward to for four years, is now at hande we amt Class Night? M Four years of hard work have success- fully passed, and we are about to leave the place that has grown so dear 'to us. Let us review the many hours spent on the Good Ship nSuccess, namely, Education! The first scenes that come before us are those of the Freshman year. We were welcomed heartily by Mr. Wil- kinson in the early fall of 1911. Since that time we have learned to Love and Honor him as our guide. We started the Freshman year with a class of eighty, and few realized that it would dwindle down to a small group of thirty. Most of us found Physical Geography very interesting. Finding the value of ttxh in Algebra soon became an easy matter. The study of English ac- quainted us with Shakespeare. We read ttThe Merchant of Venice, a very interesting play; Irvingds Sketch Bookft Evangeline? and Thanatopsis were liked by all. German and Latin were mastered. Those studying Latin were put in one class and the German students in another. This separation seemed to cause a feeling of do something better than the other class.
