Senior Class Tlfistory MY DEAR LITTLE S1sTE1z: , I am so glad it is all decided, and you are coming to 'Wilson next year. Soon after you have become a part of the class of l9l8 you will hear, as I have heard, of a class renowned in the annals of the college. Perhaps, we, its loyal members, are hoping it will be l9l4. You have already heard the first three chapters of our glorious class. You know how we lost and won hockey and basketball championships. It was then that we tried to meet victory and defeat as 'fgood sports. You know, too, how we bravely went down town on a rainy Monday. You have also heard how we pleased audi- ences with 'fMice and Men and The Foresters. Banquets given and returned scarcely need to be recalled to you. This last chapter in the history of l9l4 is in many ways the best of all. Wfe began the year by donning caps and gowns as a sign of our academic standing. This year these lines from our song- l'VVe will light and prove our colors, Green and Wliite, The colors that mean victory for Fourteen, became a reality on Thanksgiving Day. VVe kept up our reputation for dramatics by giving The Cricket on the Hearth. Then, one day South witnessed serious ceremonies and the Sophomores went away impressed by a new responsibility. Socially we entertained the Sophomores and Freshmen. We, ourselves, had the year brightened by receptions given by the president and by the faculty. Wfe found, too, that blue-birds mean both happiness and affection after we had spent a blue-bird evening with l9l6. These things have all been good, little sister, and we have a right to be proud. But this year we have learned, rather late, perhaps, that it is not the achievement which measures successg it is the spirit in which the deed is done, the spirit of co-operation, the readiness to put VVilson College first. For this we have been united, and for this, if for anything, we will be remembered. In greatest enthusiasm for our college, I am, Your Loving Sister, JAN E. Page Twenty-iwo
