Junior day came this year on Mon
day, January Is. The assembly hall
was decorated by the seniors, on Mon
day morning before school hours with
the junior class colors, maroon and
gold. The bunting was draped from
the center of the room in festoons and
on the walls were hanging the banners
of the different classes. On the front
board was written the class motto,
"Fortlter, FeLciter, Fideiter" the trans
lation being "Bravely, Cheerfully,
Faithfully" On the other side OF the
board was the senior class, "Animo,
non Astutia" meaning: SPY Mind not
by Crafts"
AS the gong struck. the seniors
marched in headed by Everett McGib-
bon carrying their colors. Then came
the juniors with their new badges. on
which their motto and the year were
printed. AS the classes reached their
places the seniors gave their yell which
was answered by the juniors. Then
the class of '99, six OF whom were pre-
sent, responded to both with their yell.
After another response from the seniors
and juniors the classes were seated,
and the usual morning exercises COM
menced. After the two classes gave
their several yells, the juniors having
the last word.
Thus began junior day of the class
of 1901.
