f OUR YEARS of colle (e life add man - pleasant events to the experiences of young men. Four years of fellowship bring many ties of friend- ship that are severed forever when the members of a class tiu ' n their footsteps from their beloved ti iini mater, and go forth into the world in all directions, each to begin life anew. The Class of ' 97, recogniz- ing these facts and seeing clearly the value of a per- manent record of the more interesting events of college life, have decided to issue a class annual. We have gathered into book form a little of the history of our College, a fe of the pictures of familiar scenes and faces, a few of the compositions of our fellow students and esteemed faculty, a few of the puns and jokes that are now fresh in the memory, to be kept as reminiscences of our college days. However, we have not pub- lished this book entirelv for ourselves: we cheerfully invite all to read it. For the faculty and alumni we have an associate history; for parents and friends we have a description of our College and its life. If in some rural or town home a bright youth should chance to read the pages of this volume, we sincerely hope that there may be kindled in his bosom a desire for a college education. We hope that he may be influenced to join that band of jolly fellows of which he reads, and to stake his fortune where we have staked ours, in order that he may acquire a fund of knowledge which will make his life broader and better. As you scan these pages, kind reader, you will undoubtedly find mistakes. You may find things that are not in good taste, or even out of place. You may find a roast or practical joke at your expense. But which- ever it be. we beg of you to pardon the authors, for they have tried to be just and fair to all. It has been some time since a preceding class issued an annual, but we hope that The Hkijostat will reflect so faithfuUv the varying experiences of student life at M. A. C. that succeeding classes will follow our example. With these words of explanation, we cheerfully resign the book to you for your enjoyment and criticism, trusting that you will find something to enjoy as well as criticise. Fraternallv vours. ' 97.
