The public craves something new. That craving extends even to reading matter. This year, the editorial staff of the Burdett Lion has attempted to put out a new magazine, finer and more worthy than ever before. The Lion for the past ten years has been published in various shapes, styles and sizes, and to a certain extent, has been successful as a student publi- cation. However, that indefinable something which goes to make a smart college magazine has been lacking. Realizing this, the editorial staff, with the assistance of a very able faculty advisory committee, early in the year' set out to devise numerous Ways and means for improving the magazine. All sorts of experiments were tried, in fact, the entire year has been of a more or less experi- mental nature. - First, the managing staff of the publication was enlarged and expanded so as to include representatives of all the departments of the school, and a reporting system was put into operation throughout the building. Q Then, realizing that in order for a magazine to enjoy a popular demand to- day, it must be dressed up in such a way as to be attractive, the 1nnovat1on of more interesting and attention-getting covers was undertaken. The business end of the publication has been cared for so well that the Lion has been self-supporting throughout the year. Because .of the splendid work of the business staff, it has been possible to have far more 'illustrative cuts than usual, thus adding much to the interesting features of the magazine.
