To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

As graduation approaches we cannot help wondering what the future of the Class of 1916 will be. Will we keep in touch with our many friends scattered all over the country? Will we have successful reunions? Or will we have a long list of "lost" members, and poorly attended reunions?

The ultimate result of our future depends essentially upon the individual. I feel sure that no one has any intention of losing himself, or of cutting off all communication with his classmates. Yes it is surprising to talk to other class secretaries and hear of the large percentage of men who simply forgot to keep the secretary informed as to their whereabouts and of the even larger number of men who never send any news of their activities.

After all, this is a question of the future. The present demands just two things of you. First, send me immediately the postcards stating your permanent address and future occupation. Second, fill out and send in your class lives. The importance of the latter is universally underestimated! The class lives must be complete to compile adequate statistics for the first report and to take their places in the College archives with similar lives of the graduates for the last century or more.

I shall keep office hours in Holworthy 1 from 1.30 to 2.30 o'clock every day for the purpose of supplying blanks to delinquents.

Whatever we do in the future, let us at least start with a full and correct catalogue of the class. WELLS BLANCHARD '16,   Class Secretary.
