MISS JONES This year, 1936-37, the Kismet Board wholeheartedly and lovingly dedicates this book to Mildred Erskine Jones Miss Jones’ cheerfulness, patience, fairness, and broad-mindedness are appreciated by all, and we have found in her a real friend because of her sympathy and understanding in all things. For all these and much more that cannot be expressed in words, she has won not only our love but also our greatest respect and admiration.

Foreword This year the Board chose the “Progress of Architecture” for Kismet’s theme. The Inter- mediate is represented by an Indian Tepee, this being considered the first thought of hand- made shelter. The Freshmen have a log cabin, the beginning of homes in wood. The Sopho- mores are represented by a fine old Colonial home, showing an advance from the crude log cabin. A mid-Victorian house and its sur- roundings represent the Juniors; while an ultra- modern skyscraper is depicted for the Seniors, who are thus represented by the latest and farthest advanced style in building. Activities, of course, are represented by the famous Coliseum where so many interesting things happened, and what could be more appropriate for the Literary section than an ancient feudal castle where one’s imagination can run riot?
