CAaO N X A.W A. K = = = T E Jit o rial Jf ANY YEARS AGO, far back in the dim, dark, old-fashioned year minds of that illustrious senior class. Crystallization of that 1918, the brilliant idea of an annual bloomed in the collective idea soon became a reality and by the standard form of class election a group of students were thrust into the precarious position of editing such a book. David F. Davis, since a member of the House of Representatives, received the high honor of being the initial Editor and chief worrier . That he did well can be ascertained by reviewing the volumes published since his time and give Mr. Davis the credit due him for such a solid foundation. However, he not only started a great and worthy project, but he also initiated a string of competitions in which each yearly editor endeavors to make his volume better than all the previous books com- bined. If complications had ended at this stage everything would have been at an exceedingly agreeable state of affairs, but that was not to be, and the book has grown each year until its expenses and work have em- braced with octupus-like tentacles the entire school. Still, at some period of the annual ' s history, a limit must be reached and for the past few years it seems as though we have attained that point. As the situation now exists the board in control must put out a better book from all viewpoints and still keep within that limit which is purely financial. This is the first real year of college life in Mansfield ' s history and to commemorate this re- markable step, we have endeavored to give you a, book to which you can point with pride and say That is my college annual. In order to accom- plish this deed we have been forced to keep within financial bounds and still we feel that we have given you the opportunity to boast. We have sought to completely revolutionize each phase of the annual and we take it upon ourselves to state, we have succeeded. Blessed with an unusually fine board and an ordinary editor, the ideas set for a college annual have been met and in some ways exceeded. Hence in this edition celebrating the tenth anniversary of the Carontawan, we offer for your approval, a col- lege year book that will vie with the best and we hope will supply as firm a foundation for future Mansfield boards as the 1918 book did for us.
