j.. .j.. PRHFACK ' ■■ ■■ ■■ IN THE SPRING OF 1898 it was detemuned to have an aiuHial of the Xoinial School. For the purpose of effecting this end Miss Mary Garnett Jackson, of Farmville, was elected editor-in-chief, and Miss Annie Hawes Cunningham, of Farmfille, business manager. The next year it was again decided to have an annual, and Miss Ella Godwin, of Fincastle, was elected editor-in-chief, and Miss Maud Jones, of Sheppards, business manager. In the fall of 1899, at a joint meeting of the Senior classes, it was determined to publish another annual, and, if possible, make it even more characteristic of the School than the preceding issues had been. It will be noticed that the name Normal Light has been laid aside for The Vjrginian. But the old name would never have been displaced for any except for one in which we felt sure that all trne Virginians, even the old editors, would glorv. As this is the only school for girls in the State under State control, we selected The Virginian as he name most expressive of our loyalty to our State and our sense of indebtedness to her. All who have ever attended the Normal will know with what ditficulty outside work is accom- plished, and, therefore, will be able to appreciate the toil and labor, on the part of the board of editors, which this annual represents. So we hope all mistakes will be judged leniently. Several new features have been introduced, viz., Bachelors ' Reveries, contributed by friends at Hampden-Sidney. A new phase of school life is brought out by this department, and we tliink the old girls will enjoy the remarks as given from the point of view of the opposite sex. Then, each class was allowed to elect an associate editor and also to put in its picture. This will make the annual valuable to the girls of the lower classes. We desire to thank the following for their aid in contributions, illustrations, etc. : Miss M. F. Stone ; Mes. Portia Morrison ; Mrs. Wiley Morris, of Sheppards, Virginia ; Miss M. W. Coulling ; Miss Julia G. Tyler, of Williamsburg, ' ' irginia ; Mr. W. E. Davis, of Knoxville. Tenne.ssee.
