FOREWORD HIS strange, mythological name may arouse wonder in those unmitiated — and rightly so. May this volume be the worthy recipient of this symbolic name, is our ardent desire. Legend says the phoenix — an immortal bird, feathered with red and gold, yet resembling an eagle — after soaring as it listeth for five hundred years, is burned to ashes on the altar of the temple at Heliopolis. Shortly a birdling arises from these ashes, and behold! on the third day, fully feathered, it flies away. In 1863 an alumnus, while contemplating the charred heaps of what had been Cumber- land University, wrote on the base of a pillar fallen among the ashes, Resurgam. Just as a Phoenix Cumberland has risen from the ashes — whence the significance of our motto, E cine- ribus resurgo. A word of heartfelt thanks to our kind contributors and trusty advisers. They have won- derfully aided our endeavors to make this edition a true memento of the unique history ot our Alma Mater and yet to give an impartial portrayal of student life. Your approval, dear reader, marks our purpose a success. View mildly its faults, our inability, not our mtent, they show; with sight only for the best, — lightly pass on.
