1897 Imago

SENIOR EXHIBITION. P resident -JOHN A LVIN ORR , COLORS-Black and White. MOTTO-" What fools we mortals he." YELL-Wo-oo-p t ! !-'97. I T is with a feeling of supreme delight that the writer seizes his pen to write the sketch of so dauntless and triumphant a Class as the Seniors-'97. To those who are not well acquainted with the character and accomplishments of the Class, what follow might seem to be an ostentatious display of personal worth. But if such persons had the exalted privilege of acquainting themselves with our members, they would find the half had not been told them. So laying aside all false modesty, in brief words , we record a description of '97. Every member of this Class (six brainy boy ) enrolled tr,e first t erm of Cedarville College. None have given the College such earnest, hearty support as the sapient Seniors. Our position has been since the start, and is still, an enviable one. Several times have we been "rushed" for wearing our colors, but the Black and ·white has never been successfully assailed. The banquet given by the Class will be the standard to which all followers will unconsciously try to attain. Our classmen rank first in the class room. In literary halls, they are without psers. On the athletic field, unexcelled . Thus, dear readers, you see is embodied in our Class the very features to make us an ideal Class. We have in our Class one President of the United States, two Cabinet Officers , two Senators, one Railroad President. In a word, we are looked up to; we are facile prinCfp.~. We have not the "swell head," but we do look down with great solicitation and symputhy on those struggling after us. A long farewell.
