Foreword In preparing this, the first volume of The Talisman, we l1ave met with many problems of the kind for which text books furnish no solution. The solution of these problems was made doubly difficult by the circumstance of a late start-almost nothing was done toward organization until the year was nearly half gone. We were inexperienced, and had no old board to call upon for suggestions. But, knowing full well that a college with the standing of Friends could no longer afford to be without an annual, and knowing that the student body was anxious that we should make the venture, we felt that the publication of an annual was a duty which we could not well shirk. Auld so we have gone ahead and have done our best, our very best. The result is before you. In looking it over you will find much to criticize and, we hope, something to praise. In noting its shortcomings please remember that if we had had a. little more of those three essential commodities, time, money and experience, we would have made all things to suit your taste. In praising its merits do not forget that it is not the work of one person, or of half a dozen persons. It is the work of The Talisman Board, assisted by the entire junior class, backed up by the most entluisiastic and loyal body of students that the sun ever shone upon. To tell in al vivid and pleasing way the story of Old F. U., to put in a permanent and attractive form some of tl1e memories of our college days to the end that they may serve to perpetuate those friendships true, forever new which have been formed amid the hallowed associations which are here depicted, to add a little to the lustre of that name which we all hold dear, these are the purposes and motives which have impelled us to the labor and sacrilice which has been necessary to produce these pages. If these ends shall he served in some small measure, then indeed shall our reward have been very great. - TI-IE TALISMAN BOARD.
