displayed by the majority of their number for our undertaking. Wle are aware that Without their good will and friendly aid what is would not have been. And now as to the book itself. W'e are aware that we can not please every one. Our aim, theretbre, has been to please the largest number of our patrons. lf, in looking over the volulne, you ilnd that which you dislike, before you pass judgment, please ask yourself Whether you are in the niajority or ininority and how niueh you have aided the publication. Then upon the answers to those questions base your judgment as to whether or not your wishes should have been considered or the wishes of some one else. Enrrons. ek: 1 eltzfvf N 1 1

above circunistantial proof, coupled with his strong administration of the l'niversity's affairs, have won the love and confidence of every loyal student. bnder Dr. Gobiirs adininistration there has been the most coniplete union of faculty and students that has been seen in the University in a decade. Knowing. as the students do, that they have the confidence ot' their president and teachers, they have borne in quiet the irksoine rules which a Board of Trustees has imposed upon society and social events at lie Pauw: rules well fitted to a graded school, but scarcely applicable to inen and women with years and ability sufficient to give them a place as thinkers in the ranks ofhigher education. Wve regret that these rules, once banished to the reahn ot' the obsolete. along with the Sunday-afternotui lecture and tl1e text- book recitation, have been disinterred, and, with the addition of others still more ancient, again thrust upon us. The opposition to athletics, which for years has been shown by a pa1't ot' our faculty, has almost disappeared, and in its stead has come aid and sympathy, the added impetus ot' which has again placed De Pauw athletics upon a firm basis, lVe believe that the results of the past season are sufficient to justify the confident assertions of our president that pure aniateur athletics could be made a success in a university. As a result ot' the earnest eftorts ot' Professors Priest and Baker and Mr. Meade, the athletic park, which fbi' many years has been a vision ot' the future, has at last taken definite shape in McKeen field. This gives us the best athletic park in the stateg and when all the ap- purtenances planned are supplied, it will be second to none in the west. The affairs of the athletic lnanagemcnt have been taken out of the hands of the old Board ot' Directors and vested in a board coni- posed of faculty, alumni and students. Thus all sides are repre- sented, and the students given the benefit of trained business advice, and an efficient check is placed upon over-enthusiasln.
