THE CLASS OF 1900, X l\10TTO-" There are no flies on us." X 0 H, we are so warm! At least that is what everybody says who visits the College and views the bright and beautiful faces of those in the three back rows of seats in Chapel which are occupied by the Class of 1900. W e are hot when it comes to getting grades. For upon examination of the grades since we have been here you will find not one of the proud Seniors, stuck up Juniors or disgusting Sophs. who think them5eives so much above us, but a member of the " Class of 1900" leading the whole College. And if it is only noticed the majority of the best grades belong to our Class. There is no mistake at all about it when I say " we are awfully" warm. Then where would they all get in the social circle if it were not for the 1900 people? Why is it we are "in it" from the start with everything? That is easy to explain, for if it were not for the beautiful, smiling faces of the jolly "Freshies" there would be no social world here. It does seem strange to see the manner in which those "stuck up'' Juniors try to win a smile from our fair sex. It be hard for them to stoop so low, but they know there are none that can compare with our girls, and of course they naturally want the best. Then we are not so slow when it comes to " athletics." Some of our boys appeared on the field during the last season of fo ot ball and were soon recognized as the best on the field. And where was that mighty base ball pitcher from, who is so much missed at present? Why, from the humble ranks of the 1900 people, and the many others who fill their position so well also came from the same old stump. We must make this description so small that we can say truthfully that "the half has never yet been told" in it of the mighty deeds of valor and everything grand that is performed by that wonderful make-up known as the Fresh– men. But nevertheless our names and wonderful deeds will be sung by our successors "to all eternity the same." Oh, but we are so warm! 32
