Pray let us introduce ourselves. This editorial we. We're very glad to meet you, and We hope that we ll agree. But first to dabble with the ink. And pen a line or two. To let our worthy patrons know What we are going to do. Now. reader, those arrangements which You see upon each head. Are not the student mortar-boards. But cooking-caps instead. Though not an intellectual feast. At least we'll do our best. Concocting some creation which We hope you can digest. Then readers, come with one accord, And gather round our festive board. Our festive editorial board. 9

And •Here's to Hobart College, ink her down! For it's there you get your knowledge, ink her down! And ■■ Here's to Ninety-seven, for she's sure to go to Heaven. Ink her down! 'ink her down! 'ink her down, down, down. But to be serious In truth, it has been very hard for us to be serious in a work of this kind; lor we have always looked upon the task of producing The Echo. not as work at all. but rather as a pleasant diversion in the midst of college duties. We feel no grave responsibility in presenting to the world a bock, which at its best can be nothing more than the results of a few hours has tily snatched irom recitation or vacation. We have made few promises and therefore our work cannot be wholly a disappointment. Our objects have been few. and these for the most part will be accom plished only in the fulfillment of our hopes. May each comrade find herein some inoffensive item concerning himself which shall give him an unend ing interest in our Annual. Wherever this little volume goes may it attract the attention of some alumnus, and may he find within some page which shall bring back happy memories of his Alma Mater. And lastly, may our Echo be worthy to reach the hands of strangers and acquaint them with the fair name of Hobart. One word for others. If all our own efforts are in vain, wc yet can furnish the reader with material such as is published in the best of college Annuals. Read the ads ! Remember that it is to the advertisers you and we are indebted. Thus we lay down our pens, adding one more to our multitude of wishes: When the great chain of Echoes which binds class to class is finally put to the test, may Ninety-Seven's not be found wanting.
