32 THE GARNET. J’listory of ’87. y r WORD of advice to succeeding historians which is based on j + experience. When an editor comes around about Oct. 15th and says that he must have your history immediately as he intends to have Tiie Garnet out by Jan. 15th, heed not his clamor but take your time and hand it in about April 15th and The Garnet will be out on Commencement day, so you will be in ample time. But if he says he wants it to go to press by the middle of March, look out tor him for he means all he savs. The latter case seldom occurs, however, so concentrate your attention on the former. Perhaps the world at large would have a more adequate idea of the historian’s duty when it is told that the stories of the achievements of each man in ’87, each year, would make a full hedged Encyclopaedia Britannica hide with shame its diminutive head in the comparison of size. Multiply this size by four and that product by the number in the class and you have a collection of fac 5 ts about twice as great as the 35,000 volumes in the College library. Can ’87’s historian condense this enormous mass of glory into an atomic Garnet and still have room for the usual Hawthorne. No, someone would be slighted, so he leaves it to the world. When time has published each man’s glory in after life the antiquarian will plunge into the records of Union College and find the treasure which ’87 has left to coming ages. The world will find it out and write it in letters of gold in the jeweled sky. Historian.
