We have aimed to reproduce here the Oberlin ofthe present with an occasional glimpse backward or an expectant presage of the future. We have seen many times her strongholds and her failings, the former vve must sacredly guard, the latter we must strive one by one to destroy and leave behind. Oberlin, as we and those who have so kindly aided us have seen her, Oberlin with her maze of activities and interests, Oberlin with her sane, pure, noble, Christian spirit, we give to you. Measure yourself and your appreciation of her by this transcript of her life and scene. ' ' THE BOARD May I, 1908 C 9 jfnremorh

:If HE Hi-O-Hi as an institution needs no apology. The rigor .of custom demands the publication of an Annual by the junior Class of Oberlin College. Nor have we as trustees of the class in this work apologies to offer for IQOQ,S Hi-0-Hi. In the satisfaction of labor sincerely done we release a book that we feel is worthy of Qberlin, whose best and truest we have aimed herein to portray. . - I Dur efforts have been aided by generous and unselfish assist- ance, disinterested interest has been manifest on every handf The Facultyhave promptly and courteously given of their tfme and counsel with no reward in-view save the betterment of the Annual. Individually, outsider, alumnus, and undergraduate have vied in their willingness to serve. Our thanks are due especially to Dr. Washington Gladden of Columbus, to Mrs. Lydia Lord Davis, to Mr. Harry james Smith of New York City, formerly an able Instructor in Oberlin College, to Mr. Paul Griswold Huston, whose Around an Old Campfire will recall many of the happiest hours that 1909 has known, and t-o Anna Louise Strong of the class of IQO5. We cannot adequately reward in words the self-sacrificing exertions of Clara M. Lathrop. Withotit her, Art, Literary, Jokes--the whole book-would have had to be satisfied with inferior material. At her request none of her workiwas entered for competition. Vlfe are pleased to acknowledge the generosity of the donors of the prize money, Jason A. Barber, Theodore E. Burton, Edward B BUTWCH, Paul D. Cravath, James B. Dill, Charles M. Hall, L. VV Morris, and Merritt Starr.
