Seniorology S ENIORS is a curious compound called Seniors. It is a very rare compound; and, even where it is found, the elements of which it is made are not of such excellent quality as we have here. They are all wise scholars, and it is even whispered about that some of them are destined to flourish the rule in the school-room and make life miserable for the youngsters. And say, one of their young men will some day astonish the world and make the sun stand still with amusement when he reveals his scientific knowledge. But in spite of the fact that honor and glory await them, they are exceedingly shy, and at the same time shrewd and gay beyond a doubt. E AGER are they to be efficient and excel in everything they do. They always make a lasting impression even on the front walk that has so faithfully served many students in the past quarter of a century. They have eminent ability, and earnestly desire to Build For Character, Not For Fame. N ATURE-STUDY is a specialty among this elegant band. Very thorough in- vestigation of human nature guaranteed. You will not hesitate for a minute to agree with me that this is a notorious crowd, even to the great extent that they are the very nucleus of the college. I DLE ARE they not for one minute, but on the contrary they are diligent workers in all college activities. Their intelligence and practical application of it are in- comparable and unequaled. They bravely and cheerfully press forward to the goal, and as they plod along, may their light so shine as to spread a lasting gleam and to illuminate the whole countryside, so far-reaching and so everlasting is their influence. O R, NOW, if you desire to analyze carefully another essential element of this compound, you will find that the Seniors are original. Why, one member is such a perfect example of originality that no duplicate has ever been known to exist. They are not only original in themselves, but all they do or say is far beyond the thoughts or deeds of others. R EMARKABLE is this class indeed, and reliable are the members thereof. Al- ways regardful of others and others' rights, yet the ruler of them all. But, on the other hand, never domineering, but giving praise to those deserving praise and honor where honor is due. S 0STAND the Seniors ever sincere, steadfast and supreme. Always and forever faithful to their colors of Blue and White, emblems of purity and loyalty; loyalty to their class and above all loyalty to their dear old college. As the white snow reflects the golden sunlight in all its glory, and makes it sparkle and dazzle the eye, so their pure snow-white reflects the Orange, symbol of enlightening power and high ideals of Cedarville College. Their Blues takes on a deeper, truer hue and they pledge their lives to the great cause of education and betterment of the world. J. R, 29
