school is hopelessly (?) in love with her-the other genius. aurl one is inclined to predict f01'her a 111aJ'wl_ ous future. . . Hfrerwcrd . . IE history of "" the 1903 Class is finished. We say these words, not with a sigh of relief escaping from T our lips; because it has not been a laborious task, but has becn a rea l pleasure for the historian to record a few striking incidents in the history of the individual members of the Class. Yet a feeling of sadness comes over 11S when we recall the melancholy fact that this is the lest: history we shall write of the 1903 Class. Our four yeal's at college have been the halcyon days of our life. Even as the calm, quiet and peaceful river flows on without any retarding of its progress, except an occasional pebble thrown into it, so our history has been one pleasant continuous journey toward the goal, with only a few hindrances which have been easily overcome. When we remember the many pleasant social events; our record in <.111the departments of learning; our soul-stirring Christian relations; our record in the athletic world, a feeling of longing comes over LtSthat we might repeat our college life. But let us remem, ber that we have taken advantage of the opportunities offered here: that we have reached the end for which we have long been striving. Now the time for the final greeting, the last farewell, has come. No 1110rcwill we spend the happy hours together. Each must enter upon his sphere of future activity. But associations have been formed, friendships made, that time can never blot out. '1'h(,I'(, shall always be fond recollections of W. M. C. and 1903. The future with its great possibilities is before us. We will obey the call of duty, and even as we have made an enviable record here, so we can predict for each a suc- cessful future. 54 - -
