Show "HAIL TO WEBER'S COLLEGE" The College class is pleased to announce that they have satisfactorily completed their year's work. It has been one that will long live in the memory of all the college girls. No doubt it has been a complex study for our worthy professors -"Girls usually are"? But we have managed to get thru and with our high marks we feel that we are doubly paid for our hard work. We feel honored in being the first graduating class in the WEBER COLLEGE and intend to conduct ourselves so that in years to come we shall be looked upon as King the Best? We feel that great responsibility rests upon our shoulders. We are WEBER'S first trained teachers and must prove to the public that our training is equal to any which is to be had. We are to carry with us Weber's mottos of moral and spiritual conduct and do all we can to influence the younger part of the public in ways of goodness. We are representatives of dear old WEBER and intend to prove ourselves worthy of her name. Along with our hard work we have had many enjoyable times. Our trip to Salt Lake was exceptionally pleasant and Professor Russel certainly proved to be a competent and pleasing entertainer. Our class has had the satisfaction of knowing that we have enjoyed more parties than all the other classes put together. One night in every two weeks we have met together for some kind of recreation. This has helped us to forget our troubles and given us enthusiasm which usually has lasted until the next monstrous assignment from Brothers Dixon and Russell. This year we have formed habits which we fear are almost "ground" into our systems. The keeping of late hours and theme writing should by this time be an automatic reaction to almost any given stimulus. It is a very common thing for a college student to wake up at 4 a. m. to find herself dreaming over Judd's Psychology or over her famous "Roe and Eliot." The outlook or earharts "Types of Teaching" are also the accompaniments in her dreams. But next year our dreams shall be influenced by another environment. The silencing of little Johnnies with cross looks and the thots of the immense salary we shall receive will haunt our dreams like specters. Forgetting all this foolishness, which should have been done before we began, we feel that on the whole our year's work has been a great success and we wish to thank all those who have helped to make it such. Especially do we wish to express our gratitude towards our principal, Brother Barker, to Professors Dixon and Russell and Miss Belnap. We feel that Miss Belnap has succeeded in making her course interesting as well as useful. Professor Pardoe has been a great aid and so have all the faculty. They unitedly with the student body have boosted for our college and we take this opportunity of thanking them. We want to encourage and arouse more enthusiasm for our college! There are three things necessary. First is boost; the second is boost, and the third is boost. We are sure of a great future for WEBER and are willing and anxious to spend any amount of effort to help her on to greater things. May she prosper, both her High School and her College and may each student become a worthy bearer of her name. COLLEGE |
