Foreword Gentle Reader (as we hope you to be), on the ensuing pages you will find the re- sults of our best efforts to record the endeavors and accomplishments of one more year in Hobart’s history. The function of the year book is limited to just that. The esprit de corps cannot be set forth in words. It rests with you to see that be- tween the lines, Kind Reader, and we trust that we have done all in our power to facilitate the process. The greatest of Hobart’s “new eras” is upon us. She is rounding out her hundredth year of progress, preparing to finish the superstructure of a fine edifice, the best small college in America. The foundations have been solidly laid, with much work and great trouble, and they cannot be shaken. Like the Gothic cathedrals of Europe, successive generations have contributed their whole- hearted efforts to its construction, and like those structures, it will never be fully completed, 'flic present generation is doing its share and herewith we present a record of the work, a record cursory and incomplete, but done with as little preju- dice as human beings can, and as completely as we could within the limitations of time and space. We now give it to you, for whom it was written, to do with as you will. Some said, “John print it,” others said, “Not so,” Some said, “It might do good,” others said, “No.” 7 Editor-in-Chief
