I tak' this occashun, howiver, to expriss a few remarks, a la Frank A. Munsey, aboot this bein' th' bist book what wuz iver pub- lyshed, or I don't know a good wan when I sees it. I launch forth this little produckt iv me genius upon th' troubled sea iv-upon th' troubled-upon th'-wa'al, anyway, th' book is much bettir than it wuz lasht yeer, owin' t' mi havin' writ a grate miny iv the artycles meself. Th' book kontains miny redic- ulous pictures, Mayr's face alone appearin' betwane sivin and eight toimes. Sivereal litterary producshuns handed in by th' mimbers iv the faculty an' itliers, I hev bin compelled to omit, bein' not properly spelled an' punshuated. This is a de lucks edition iv th' FORISTERQ ivery wan is lucky what doan't hev to buy wan. There are, iv course, wan or two sad things in th' book, among thim bein' several jokes by Rotroff an' th' repintance sang be XVillis afther his pilgrimage t' th' Chicago Opera House. Th' staff iv reporters has bin very inergitic an' th' FORISTER has th' pleasure iv announsing the following new fraternities: Chi Cago SL Alton, Mississippi Delta, S. O. A. K., B. X O., K. M., Omega Sigh, an' siviral uthers, th' reports iv which came in too late for publicashun. Menny ither features iv interist cornmind thimsilves to th' attenshun iv the reeder. Th' intyre contints can be learned by reedin' th' buk. I tak' this occashun to expriss me thanks to Missrs. Scott, Curtis, Mallory, Rogers, Matthews, Krueger, Ross, johnson, Mayr, Banta, and Misses Palmer and Talbot, who rindered me no little assistance in th' prepyratian iv th' buk. DANIEL MCCARTER. P.
