The ff Hun is published by the junior Class of the College of Liberal Arts of Boston Universityq we have not confined attention to our own class, but we have kept within the College of Liberal Arts, feeling that we could not do justice to the other departments of the University. Just a word about the grinds. Custom has decreed that every college annual should contain more or less of these good-natured roasts, and we have thought it well to follow this decree, but we wish to emphasize the adjective, and we hope the good nature of each roast will be apparent. Should, however, any victim feel inclined to take offence and to seek revenge, we here give public notice that each member of the board will go armed for the remainder of the college course, and will not hesitate to defend himself or herself against any attack. We wish to acknowledge our obligation to all who have assisted us in the work, especially to the several members of the faculty who have taken so much interest in the HUB g and to our artists, Mr. D. N. Handy, l99, Miss Everett and Mr. Wheeler, 1900, and Mr. J. H. Scott, 1902. We do not need to commend their work, for it speaks for itself. We are also under obligation to many members of the college for articles which appear in various departments of the volume, and to them all we return most hearty thanks. With this salutatory we welcome our readers and wish them all pleasure in their perusal of the Cl4:N'l'URv HUB.

..EditoriaI.. C 405 J A full college generation has passed since Boston 'University's Annual, the Hun, has appeared to gladden the hearts of the students-perhaps excepting those few who have had the linancial responsibility of the publication g for four years the t' Hui: has been only a tradition, and prophets and carping critics have assured us that no other Hui: would ever appear. So long as there were among us some of the former generation who had assisted in the last sad rites of the tt l1UIl of i96, the frequent sight of their sombre garb of mourning proved an effective damper upon any little sparks of en- thusiasm which were dormant in student breasts 3 but with the advent of the Century Class there came to Boston University a body of students so filled with enthusiasm that the tales of past failures served only to arouse ambition, and this ambition has not stopped short of attempting to revive the glory of the past, our long dormant HUM. We hope, however, that we have learned wholesome lessons from the experience of our predecessors, and we have therefore been content with a more modest volume than we might otherwise have desired, but one which we hope will prove a pleasing memento of our college life -- a memento which will leave no bitterness behind it. None can realize the imperfections of our completed labors more than we, who have worked so lovingly upon itg and we might offer many an apology for these imperfections, but we prefer to leave them all to the generosity of our friends. Yet we would remind any who may be inclined to criticize that all our work has had to be done in haste, for the CENTURV Hun is the production of only one short term's work. We feel that we have learned many things, and could we now begin anew, we should hope to produce a better book, but that cannot be, and as it is we offer it to our readers. I2
