Histor)) of niie Instano In the jlear of nineteen hundred eleven the need of a school annual vJas felt at this school, and the Senior Class--iQi2---decidod that they vJould put out a book. After a great many difficulties they succeeded in putting out the first vohinie of TTie Instano. This first volume was a success from every standpoint but a financial one. The debit, however, vJas overcome bx) the aid of additional taxation upon the Seniors, and the kindness of Dr. Ament, and The Instano launched forth upon its career. Undaunted by the difliculties that confronted the Class of 1912, the Class of 1Q13 set out to make a better and bigger book for the foUotOing ear. Through the untiring effort of Gladstone A. Carmalt they carried out their purpose, and the second ' ' olume made its appearance,— a handsomely bound book of 275 pages. This j ' ear, the task of putting out a book has been far greater than either of the previous years. Great difficulties have unexpectedly appeared, and it is only after a great amount of hard labor that we are able to present for }?our approval this, the third volume of The Instano. We sincerelj) hope that its readers will o ' erlook the faults and enjoy the book. 13 ° S2M@ @( sii ° SSui?5i s@(S o JFotLs ' SsiiS
