Born May 29, 1736. intermission The semester is almost over, the events of Junior are in the past, the Honor Cycles have been given out, the various athletic teams either have finished or are finishing their schedules, and with this issue the publi- cation of the Armour Tech News for this school year is completed. Commencement Night will soon be here and with it will come the end of the school days of the great major» ity of the graduating seniors. A few will go on to take academic work at other institutions but most will start the life long task of making a living. We, ourself, tainly are not in a position to offer advice to the gradu- ates. Still we feel it fitting to point out that all authori— ties on the subject seem to agree that life in business or in a profession, like life in school, is largely what the individual makes of it. it can be either a pleasure or a grind depending, to a considerable extent at least, upon the attitude of the person himself. We take this opportunity of congratulating the entire senior class upon having successfully completed its work at Armour and of wishing them the best of good fortune in the years to come. Also, at this time, we ofl'er our best wishes particularly to those seniors who either directed or aided in the work of the Armour Tech News. It was a pleasure to work with them and it is our hope that after graduation they will continue to keep in touch with school and with the staff of the News. Next September, those students who are not to gradu- ate now will return to school. It will be their task to continue the work of the various organizations in which they are interested. It will also be their task to assimi- late the new freshman class which will enter Armour at that time. The new men will have to be recruited by the athletic teams, the publications, or the other organizations and they must be made an integral part of the student body. This is work which can be done only by those men who are at present freshmen, sopho- mores, or juniors and it will be up to them to do it. The class of 1931 has completed its work and is about to leave school for other fields of endeavor. Those of us who remain here still have duties to perform and must work together in order to accomplish them satis~ factorily.

The friend, anxious to display his wit, asked: “Pat, do yez see that?” “To be sure 0i do." “And do yez know where yez’d be if th’ gallows had its due?" “Faith an’ Oi do.

We received quite an assortment and picked these as being among the best. Seeing as this is the last issue of the News we also wish to thank each one of you who has helped during the term.
