Editors ' ' ' Whale ' XF THERE ' S any truth in an old saying we have often heard, — Laagh and the world laughs with you — the whole world ought to be laughing fit to kill. Why? Such an absurd question! Because the Annual has gone to press, that ' s why! There are other things, too, to give us the smile that won ' t come off. Haven ' t we had the exquisite pleasure of reading all the ambitious attempts of our illustrious school-mates, in the form of soul-stirring poetry, heart-rending romance and side-splitting jokes? Yea, more! Can we not sit back with an air of superiority while our less fortunate comrades wonder what that great volume, The Battle- field, will contain? Our loudest laugh, however, is yet to be— for shall we not see our names in print? Ha, ha, ha! Hee, hee, hee! Who, then, can be so happy as we? ? ? ? March 28, I9I4.

To Olive May Hmman our honorary member, the fruits of whose talent and experience have always been ungrudgingly put at our disposal; whose undaunted spirit and enthusiasm have re- kindled our own when the way seemed darli; whose helpfulness always takes its form in deeds as well as words; and whose joyous way of entering into every phase of activities, whether glad or sad, has been an inspiration, and whose cheerful toil, however fate may smile upon us, will make our schooldays here appear as one of the big, bright spots in our lives — we affectionately dedicate this volume. ::::::
