X ATIENT READER, before plunging you into its seething 'v depths, the Editorial 'Board would call your attention to xg -g the .ffafzzs quo of the KALnRoN. The early college 'M M' year was rampant with conflict and strife engen- dering hatred and confusion. Amidst this clanging disorder the past' basis of the' K1xl.nRoN tottered and, as blow was added to blow, fell in ruin, 'l'hen, bythe magic of arbitration, the conflicting forces neutralized, the combative elements yielded to the bonds of their affinity, and disorder crystallized into method. The KAI,- nRoN, lifted from the chaos of unmairshalled influences, presents itself with an im petus.-the resultant ofthe Combined Hellenic forces. It-acknowledges the excellent pioneer work of former boards, lt recognizes thatpasteditions have been characterized by true worth. Vet it would be modesty inconsistent with our ambition not to say that our hopes are not realized, our expectations are not granted their premises, if this work does not outrank all former attempts. And, in claiming this distinction for our KALDRON, we do in no wise detract from the credit of former boards. Past editions have served as lamps of cxpcricncc lighting the way, saving our feet from many a stumble. And certainly we are not immodest in assuming that we have penetrated farther, aided by these guiding lights. 7

All interested have struggled arduously for the good of the work. The pen of the historian has dyed the pages with truth. The muse of the poet has poured forth her sweetest melodies. The artist has pencilled his wittiest thoughts. The witches have mixed a charmed potion, the flames crackle beneath the KALDRON, and if a due portion of its smlfling contents falls to your lot, think it not evil, but rather consider it a providential boon. Let it cauterize the wound assailed, eat away the malformation. For only, indeed, are deformities vulnerable to this enchanted concoction. But should some look not thus favorably upon what we have deemed consistent with our appreciation of the functions of a college annual, should there be those whose inlirmities appear, in their own sight, too broadly exposed-in their behalf, for the sake of information, we would say that the Board, not having com- pleted arrangements for going abroad, have thoroughly equipped themselves with those requisite arms of defence, truth, honor, courage and manliness, and will bravely resist any attempts to- wards the accomplishment of their extinction. If any there be who have not received due mention, let them recall, the KALDRON Board is mortal, error may be a component part of their destiny. But the z11z.vmZdt'1z'1nay in general rest with the assurance that their faults were so great as to confer disgrace by mention, or there was nothing to inspect except the elliptical curve of the zero. The Board, since it has rigorously adhered to the practice of opening its sessions with the Lord's Prayer, desires to extend a hand of forgiveness to its enemies, if any there be. Finally, thanking our friends for their kindly co-operation and assistance, we leave the KALDRON with you, feeling confident the benelit derived therefrom will be in proportion to the fullness of our own effort. 8
