S. we wish to say that wc have been duly impressed with the importance of our work. We have tried to include everything of importance and devote sufficient space to each undertaking and at the same time keep within the confines of our limited number of pages. It has been our endeavor to arrange all matters as nearly as possible in the manner in which each organ- ization wished it. It has grieved us to be forced to increase the price again. However, printing and engraving are even higher this year than they were last, and such a step was necessary. Nevertheless, we believe that for the increase in price we are giving you a much more handsome book. And right here a word must be said, we talked over the matter for quite a while before deciding on this brown color scheme. Everyone seemed to concede that the sepia tones would produce a much better looking book, but hesitated because it had never been done before. And so we decided right then and there, that there was too much ancestor Worship and adherence to cherished precedent up here anyway, and that an objection on those grounds was no objection at all. So here you have our book, and to tell the truth, we're pleased with it. True, it is an innovation, but this has been a year of innovations. It has marked the beginning of com- pulsory cadet training, the introduction of supervised study, community singing, better dramatic work, and a higher spirit in athletics. The spirit of victory has ushered in a spirit of progress and we have caught the spirit. And speaking of victory, this has been a victorious year, not only for our nation, but for our school as well. Our football team passed an undefeated season and our basket- ball team was runner-up in the state tournament. In debate, too, C. B. has maintained her triumphs. And so we say again, we have tried to chronicle all the happenings of this annus mirablis. Perhaps we have failed in our endeavor, we'll admit we have made mistakes. However, dear student, don't be too harsh in your criticism, but accept our Work such as it is, and realize that whatever it is not, it is the best we could do. Receive then, the 1919 Crimson and Blue. -will 9191?-nf
