H Some men are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them. VVe are of the latter class. Modesty forbids our saying whether we are of either of the first two or not, but we feel confi- dent that each reader will judge correctly for himself, if the reader be judging for himself we have no interest in his opinion of our greatness. VVe have had many things to contend with, but we have done our best to overcome them, and where we have not succeeded we hope the reader will remember that possibly once or twice in the dim past he made a mistake himself. Stevens is a technical school, and as a natural consequence literary geniuses are few and far between, so we have been obliged to make the most of our opportunities and to scrape together in one pile the odds and ends of literary ability which we could find, and we-leave it to the readers to estimate the size and quality of that pile. We have endeavored to add a few new features to the book which we hope will meet with the approval of the critics, but for the most part getting out a college annual is a game of follow the leader, with the book published the year before as a leader and the new board as followers, trying to avoid the places where the last board fell down and sometimes having worse tumbles themselves for their trouble. We have fallen several times ourselves, but we have never suffered from anything more serious than a slight elongation of a lower limb or a misplacement of one of the wheels in our brains causing a slight delay in a train of thought. If in the future the Class of 'o 5 or 'o6 should happen to look over this book and wonder whv we could not get out as elaborate a one as theirs, let them not forget that time and circumstances have a great influence in altering cases, and that we have done our best not to have a missing link in the chain. 6
