Preface E publication of the fourth volume of Tin: Thistle marks another chapter in the history of the Carnegie Technical Schools. In looking back over the events of the past year, we find that the spirit pervading the whole atmosphere of the schools may be briefly expressed by one word, growth—growth in numbers, in ideals, in prestige, and in influence. 'And yet, as an institution, we arc still in our youth, and youth carries with it the idea of health, energy, vigor and buoyancy. We have not yet learned to look toward the past, for the future holds before us brighter visions and fairer prospects. One of the most encouraging signs has been the growth among the students of the spirit of loyalty and devotion to the Alma Mater. It has been the aim of the Thistle Hoard in preparing this volume to develop and foster this spirit by presenting a more or less complete record of those events and happenings which, aside from the regular routine of work and study, constitute a large part of what is pleasant and profitable in college life. If, in your opinion, we have fallen short of our aim, or if the book presents to your eyes certain crudities and inconsistencies, remember that youth is the age of awkwardness and imperfection, and that time will add to the strength and vigor and impulsiveness of youth the settled poise and finished grace of perfect maturity.

New York, March 30, 1909. Dear Mr. Editor: I wish to tender my congratulations upon the continued success of the Technical Schools. Several competent judges who have visited them have expressed the highest admiration for all that they saw there. Your reputation will soon become not only national but international. Two visitors from abroad have called to tell me that you already occupy high rank. Keep steadily marching forward, and pray remember me to all your scholars, who are in after life to look back with intense gratitude to the teachers who are giving them such a splendid start. Always very truly yours, Andrew Carnegie.
