O knihe

Excerpt from Five and Thirty: The Further History of the Class of Eighty-Seven of the University of Pennsylvania for the Ten Year Period, 1912-1922

It has been one of the finest traditions of '87 not to think of the Class tie as broken by death. The names of those who have died are still carried on our Class roll. Their memory is of the warp and woof of our Class life, and is not to be unravelled. It is for the reason that we feel them so veritably present with us in spirit that we forbear to have any great divide in our Class roll.

But this preface grows too long. There is a limit to one's indulgence in hors d'oeuvres, if one would keep one's appetite um spoilt for the serious eating to follow. But before we get to the serious eating, gentlemen of '87, there's a toast to be drunk, and to be drunk standing, To Pennsylvania, God bless her, dear mother of '87. We, your sons, come back to you with a love grown stronger and tenderer than when we were of your household, and with a more loyal fellowship toward all the host who wear the Red and Blue. Hail Pennsylvania.
