■pljHE Applied Science School division of the 1908 Thistle Board takes great pleasure in presenting to the men of the School of Applied Sci- It ence and friends their part of this the third volume of the Thistle. is well understood that the general character of a college annual cannot vary to any great degree, from year to year, but we have endeavored to bring forth new details, at least. We have had as our aim, the production of a book which would be characteristic of all that is best in connection with school life at C. T. S. We hope that the 1908 Thistle will cause many a man to look back, in after years, and see again the pleasant, the real, the humorous, and the serious sides of our school life. We then would ask that you read, think and try to see between lines that which we have unintentionally overlooked. Trusting that you will find in the pages which follow, such as will increase your love for the Applied Science School of the Carnegie Technical Schools, we turn over to those whom we represent and their friends, the Applied Science School Section of the 1908 Thistle. 20
