f N FCREWARD Friends and Patrons! VV-hen selected by our classmates to compile this an- nual, we set about the task with ten-pou11d weights in our bosoms. Gloom en- wrapped our souls as we viewed the stupendous job before us. Could we master it? Were we capable? Could we hope even to equal the annuals of former years, much less make ours a bigger, better year book of school-life? Days and days we pondered, while at times utter despair shook our souls with the grip of a demon. Finally something, fwho knows what?j gave us courage to make a begin- ning and that small start was the little candle which sent its tiny ray sparkling through the shadows of doubt, hlike a good deed in a naughty worldf' ' Having taken courage to begin we kept before us the motto of our class He conquers who endures, and going to the other extreme we made love to the Muses with all the ardor of a college Freshman. Passionately we wooed the Divine Afflatus, the results being inky fingers and piles of superfluous manu- script. But we were practical too, and trudged many a weary mile on the trail of an elusive ad. Naively we had our pictures taken and smile at you from the following pages with youth's sublime assurance. VVe conscientiously tried to be witty, rushing in often where angels might have feared to tread. Now, it is fin- ished our semi-comic production. We offer it to you with apprehension, it being yours to judge, whether or not our labors have been in vain. THE STAFF.
