 Upon our arrival in the fall we were a trife disappointed. Why? Be- cause d senior doesn't feel much diff ferent from any common person. Hav- ing sClemnly deliberated on the ques- ton, we chose our hitherto meek young man. Curtis Clifford, president, Mary Kaminsky was given the soft job of vice-president, Katherine Strong was empowered to take charge of the records and William Rother- fo~th, paying teller. Class day, senior r 'om. class night, senior banquet seemed but a few days apart. We are a last thrown upon the cruel, cruel world and each class-mate must choose his own path and the canoe which he will have to paddle through life.
 As a parting word of advice we wish to impress upon the minds of the future generations that it is at all times necessary to keep the faculty out Of mischief. A few worthy souls, Thomas Myers, by playing hooky: James V. Sullivan by nearly giving the captain nervous prostration in mili- tary training; Ev. Williams by falling asleep in classes. thus showing pro- found respect for the teachers: Victor Eerner, by strolling leisurely along the corridors, after the warning bell, caus- ing undue worry to the traffic super visors and traffic force; Sheldon Wes solech by coming to school on his motorcycle and causing heart failure among his teachers on account of the numbe of passengers he was in the habit of carrying; Gerlander, by initiating a circus sword swallower at High school club suppers, causing anxiety among his class mates; John Odin by getting English words finish ed and handed in about three weeks after MT. Hancock called for it: these and many others have contributed their share to keeping our teachers busy. It is vitally important that this be done every year as the minds of the teachers should always be kept occupied. +
 And now. it is time to part. So with all good wishes and earnest hopes that our successors follow the examrle set by so worthy a group of elders. we remain,

 'In our second year we inherited per custom the position or wise crackers of the school. At any rate we began to come to and take an interest in school life. And the wisest of the wise was Howard D. Clark who danced, wrote poems and engaged himself in other foolish projects. As sophomores we were supreme among men and women. But we came down from our lofty perch and took time to elect officers. Lewis Cha apman, be- cause he could part his hair in the middle so cute, won the entire support of the female faction and was elected president.

 ''The Evolution and Meaning of Education," was the subject of the class oration by Julius Pac. It fol- lows: F When we turn to the graceful structure of Brooklyn bridge and recall the airy outline of it's curves of beauty, pendant between massive towers suggestive of art alone, there is contrasted with the overreaching vault of heaven above and the ever moving flood of waters beneath the work of omnipotent power. We are irresistib1y moved to eXclaim, What hath man wrought!'
 Man hath indeed wrought far more than strikes the eye in this dar- inS undert;> king. It is not the work of any one man or of any one age. It is the result of the study; of the ex- perience; and of the knowledge of many men in many ages. It is not merely a creation; it is a growth,- an everlasting growth. -
 For nearly one thousand years education was only for the select few. The plain people had no lot, part, interest or opportunity in its advantages. The medieval founda- ton, which was the ancestor of the modern school, was only for the ben eft of fraction of the population. Originally it was only for the church. It took centuries to embrace in a liberal education, what are known as the professions. It is only in our own time and in America that jour- nalism has been recognized as one of the liberal professions. The uni- versity in Europe has about it the medieval flavor. It is not school

PENRosE BILL OPPOSED.

rotary of the Treasury blanket power
to extend the time Of repayment of
European loans without consulting
Congress. =. II s~ ~ $E>-.% =
The President is very anxious to
have this bill passed before the So
called disarmament conference meets,
but there is considerable objection in
many quarters and this measure is
sure to encounter some rough going.
Pacihsts oppose the bill on the ground
that European nations could repay the
eleven. billion dollars they owe the
United States If they would reduce
their military expenditures. They
want the United States to insist upon
payment and thus compel world. dis
armament. Sympathizers with the
Irish republic ask that Great Britain,
in particular, be forced, to pay it's
debt instead of using these funds to
coerce Ireland with an armed force.
In addition, there is another great
body of American citizens who see no
reason why Congress should surrender
It's constitutional prerogatives and
give the Administration power to use
eleven billion dollars of the peoples
money as counters in game Of IDOL.
