' v x IjStfi T: Foreword ' HE ANNUAL has been written by the students of the school, under the direction of a staff chosen from the June class of 1 906. The pur- pose of the editors has been to record the events of a school year, and to produce a literary column fully as interesting as that in Annuals of past years. Some items are entirely new, for the creation of unique and varied features was the first end in view in developing every department of the book. In general we have endeavored to exclude all deep and abstract subjects, giving preference to interesting and entertaining articles, truly representative of the high school girl and boy. The editing of the Annual has been a happy task, for there is a joyous satisfaction in working purely and simply for the good of the alma mater. Many of the tedious hours spent in writing, cor- recting and proof reading, were lightened by the anticipation of the pleasure we hoped to give our fellow-students. Throughout the year the develop- ment of the Japanese motive has been a class secret ; and the finished book, unique and harmonious in every detail, has only been made possible by the modifica- tion of traditional customs. The printing of endless half-tones of fraternities, athletic teams and various organizations has given way to illustrations Japanese in character. Finally the untiring efforts of the business managers enabled the staff to beautify and broaden the work without involving the class in debt. Here is our book. It is probable that our ultimate attainment has fallen short of our aim, but whatever the defects may be, the editors trust that everybody will find something worthy of commendation. As to how our book will be received by the faculty of the school and the more mature alumni, we naturally feel dubious. In the end, our hopes will have been realized if the reader is glad of an opportunity to show his friends the Annual, and to refer to it as an excellent chronicle of the happy high school year of 1905-1906. ®
