:- ! j:vj? J 77 I tiave endeavored in the preparation of this, the Twenty-second Volume ill of Thk Epitome, to preserve the most commendable qualities of the former Epitomes, and yet, by the introduction of some new features, to make it somewhat different from the previous editions For the furtherance of this plan, the arrangement of the subject matter, composing the book, has been somewhat changed, and a brief description of each Course, offered by the University, has been added Other changes that we have made will best be seen by the examination of the contents of the book. We attempted to interest the men, who served on former Epitome boards, in the publication this year. Our efforts, however, in that direction did not meet with very flattering success, but what responses we did receive were all the more appreciated. We have gone to great expense to have the artistic work in the Epitome as excellent as possible, and the half-tones of the Univer- sity buildings and Campus, we think, will add much to the appearance and permanent value of the book. This year of college life which is chronicled m the Ninety-Eight Epitome, has been a very important one in the history of Lehigh. Already, the bene- ficial results of Dr. Drown ' s wise and energetic administration of the affairs of the University, have been felt ; as is demonstrated by the large increase in numbers of the Freshman Class this year, as compared with the class that entered last year. The announcement has also been made that our Faculty is to be still further augmented and strengthened by the addition of a Chair of History and Political Economy. We wish to thank most heartily all who have as.sisted us, in any manner, in the preparation of this work ; and trusting that our labors will meet with the approval of the Faculty, Alumni and Under- graduates, we beg leave to present the Epitome of the Class of Ninety-Eight. THE EDITORS.
