FOREWORD T LAST the work of preparing the 1908 “LAKOTA” is finished. The Board returns to you. who have invested us with the responsibility and conferred upon 11s the honor, the completed volume. We present this book, a record of our defeats and victories, ambitions and realizations, since our entrance as Freshmen in 1904 -first to our Alumni, next to the Student Body and Faculty (to the latter owing the greatest debt), and lastly to our Classmates of 190$. May you all derive from reading it something which will interest you. The present Senior Class, while Juniors, conceived the plan of establishing an Annual: the first volume. ap| earing in 1908. to l c the work of our Class. It was planned that this should contain some notes of interest to all who have been. are. or will Ik. connected with this institution. W hether we have accomplished the desired end. we leave you to judge. The excellent instruction received in Knglish during our four years has been of inestimable value in this compilation. In the preparation of the lx ok. we received our first real backing from the College and Business interests here and elsewhere. After this support was given, we proceeded rapidly with the work of gathering, selecting, composing and the subject matter. Whatever editorial errors may lx observed in the perusal of this volume must be attributed to our lack of exix riencc rather than to any lack of care, persistent endeavor, or interest on our part. To do that which should add to the welfare and glory of our school has been our object in the compilation of this volume. 8
