O HER, our beloved matron, most generous and cheerful helper, whose untiring energy and ever ready sympathy has been so willingly expended in our welfare, mental, moral and physical. To her, who has ever afforded a listening ear for all girlish troubles, who has so well filled the place of a mother for the girls of Wesleyan’s halls, rejoicing in their gladness, and sympathizing in their sorrow, — whose heart is big enough for everybody,— to her, best beloved memb er of our college household and universal favorite, we most heartily dedicate this book.

I N its zig-zag journey, the Wesleyan Annual has -eached the year 1906, and in its course gathers up the mani- fold happenings of college life, both grave and gay. The editorial pathway has been hard to travel and decked with few roses, those few with thorns perchance, thus through trials this book has been brought forth. Of course we expect criticism, but we ask the fault-finders to be lenient, as the book was written principally to amuse, not to instruct. Our object has been to portray the experiences of college life, with good-natured hits at the faculty and students. The Editors have carried out their belief that “It is the boldest way, if not the best, to tell men freely of their foulest faults, laugh at their vain deeds and vainer thoughts.” THE EDITORS.
