GREETING It is with unfeigned diffidence that we make our bow to the pubUc and crave the indulgence of our friends. In this age when new books crowd each other Hke snowflakes in a storm, it is customary for the author of every new publica- tion to apologize most humbly for inflicting a new burden on the reading public. Of course no one except the writer ever reads this preface, but when his book falls into the hands of his literary friends, and the author is almost ashamed to show himself in polite society, it is a great solace to him to see his apology in print and reflect that at least he has made the amende honorable to the world. We therefore offer the usual apology for the shortcomings of the editorial staff, but for the publication of the annual no apology is necessary. The book is needed by the boys of the Memphis University School, and without it the work of the past session would be incomplete. Here will be found in durable form the records of our athletic teams, i.f which we may justly feel proud. Here, too. 25

is the record of our daily life and some of the pleasant things that relieved the dull school hours. Here also appear the photographs of many old alumni boys who helped to make M. U. S. history in their day, and whose achievements are the prized heritage of the school. Moreover, the publication of an annual, not less than a successful football team, fosters a school spirit among the boys and brings the alumni into closer touch with their alma mater. And if it be true, as men say, that school and college days are the happiest of a man ' s life, then in after years, when the shadows deepen, it will be no small pleasure to open a well worn volume and live over again the happy days of nineteen hundred and six. These photographs, these crude literary efforts, drawings, and foolish grinds will then shine like stars through the misty past and give us pleasant dreams of things almost forgotten. If we can interest the alumni, or help ever so little to develop a loyal school spirit, or if some day this little volume will bring a smile and a pleasant recollec- tion to some gray -haired alumnus of M. U. S., we feel that our work will not have been in vain. 26
