(Editorial. N offering this little volume for the censure or ap- proval of the public we have no excuses to offer, neither do we intend to weary you, gentle reader, with a rehearsal of the wonders we might have worked and the artistic and literary triumphs we might have achieved if we had only had in our class a few more millionaires, essayists and nascitur non fit poets. As a class we have never boasted of any wonderful brilliancy, and we may have failed to show any evidences of a particularly scintillating genius, but we have always done our best in discharg- ing the duties which have presented themselves in our course, and in keeping up those customs and institutions of college life which play so important a part in making the true college-bred man some- thing more than a cyclopedia of facts and figures. We have con- sidered the publication of the Echo as one of these duties, and the most important of them all, and we have taken up this task in the same spirit in which the former ones have been met. A task, indeed, we have found it, and yet one not without satisfaction in its performance. We have not tried to be “ original ” by making any radical changes in form or contents, but we have endeavored to conform to the generally accepted standard for College Annuals rather than set up a standard of our own. Minor changes, we think, will explain themselves. For any mistakes or omissions we must implore the indulgence of our friends, and if we seem to have shown any par- tiality or undue severity, we can assure them that these offences have been committed from no personal motives and entirely ex officio. 7
