Foreword ITAnd this is our own special Microcosm. The hook of the year of 19 20, the book of the class of 19 20. Our timid footprint on the avenue of glories that stretches in front of us. that lies Ix-hind our back. t cOf course we think that there never was such a year as this annus mirabilis of 1920. Hut then, other Microcosms have expressed the same modest opinion. And we dare not Iiojm to be able to do bettor than they. Nor gliali we try. , e ’ ' » Within the pages that follow, you oh kindest of readers, will find a more or less accurate description o£ the doings of the classes, of the teams, of the organizations. Ft is up to you to read out of them the glory of Alma Mater and our own insignificant triumphs. r Ve trinl to tell the truth in every article. Sometimes it was very hard. It is very difficult for scniors .still softened by the pathetic parting speeches of their classmates, not to put too much poetry into the news. ’ But we tried! render. , And if in spots our story grows sentimental and our lyre bursts into lyric raptures, forgive us, oh IfFor this place means much to us and 'tis through rosy colored s|H ctncles that we view every small thing con- nected with it. in our enthusiasm never realising that perhaps we are quite the smallest of those things. IfAnd this Microcosm, after all, is a true mirror of our microcosm; of our triumphs and battles and defeats and follies. It is in that knowledge that we hand it to you. Perhaps during this whole year we have accomplished nothing miraculous, nothing that will stand out for the ages. Hut we have taken and given, we have loved, we have tried. - And the record of all our attempts is this Microcosm, which we now offer to you. F. E. F. ENTY OSM
