Foreword For twenty years it has been the custom for the junior Class of Oberlin College to publish a Hi-O'-Hi. It has been the aim of every editorial board to make its book an improvement over the preceding one. This endeavor has of course led to a steady increase in expense. Last year the cost of publication exceeded EB250000, and the management was unable, even with the surplus from the Junior Play, to meet expenses. In preparing the 1912 Annual for publication, we have adopted a different policy. instead of continuing the enlargement of the book, we have cut down in space wherever possible. We have eliminated that matter which seemed least valuable. We have not spent money on the little points which tend to make a book more artistic. VVe have not used an expensive paper or binding. We have tried to get out a Hi-O-Hi which will best serve its purpose as a memory book for the year 1910-1911, and at the same time to 'Kget it out at the least possible expense. We offer our most grateful thanks to those who have aided us in our work. Both faculty a11d students have given us most willing assistance and advice. We owe our especial thanks to those not now connected with the school who, although ineligible to compete for the prizes, have furnished so much of our Art work. VVe are indebted to Mrs. Edith Brand Hannah, '97, for our Title pagej to Miss Julia Severance for the Seminary page: to Mr. Sidney Dickinson, ex-Acad., for the Art page, and to Mr. Fred L. Knowles, ex-'08 and elected Art editor of the 1912 Annual, for many drawings in the Athletic department and else- where.
