Foreword The Helm again makes its how. in spite of the fact that for several months this year it seemed impossible on account of hard times for the school to issue the annual. After much deliberation we decided to content ourselves with a very modest publication. Patriotic students and friends will appreciate the reasons for this without argument. In spite of any changes we have made, we bring to you. in permanent form, the likenesses of those with whom all of us have been associated for months and possibly years. Let's not fail to use the book to keep ever fresh in our minds the faces of those whom we have learned to love in Simpson—this is the main purpose of any annual. I ‘cry little of the literary material in this book was ever intended for the public eye—a fact that may make it all the more valuable. It represents the spontaneous expression of students writing from their hearts in the course of daily labors, the gleaning from their class journals. It makes no claim to special literary excellence. The work of issuing the annual is more and more being considered the work of the senior class. H e urge the seniors of ’ ? to assume their responsibility from the opening day of the coming session.
