Ebitorial. Z '.,'4 -'jrijlpgj-fig. EAR READER : YVe take our pen in hand to let you know we feel relieved, and hope you are the same. The Bijou is ended, and we are pretty nearly so, as it were. After eating ,'Vy phosphorus and pickles and milk Qthey always make us feel funnyj, after wearing our hair long, and reading P1lCA',f1l!lig'f, and Bill Nye, and paying our own club board for the past four months, we have gaily clipped our fountain pen into the inkstand, run our long, shapely fingers through the raven locks that crown our noble brow, a11d, with tears in our eyes, have tried our utmost to compose something funny, but all we could think of were the ghosts we had seen'l and our grandmotherls grave.

If, in these straits, we have struck at the foibles and eccentricities of professors and students, we crave forgiveness, and humbly acknowledge that we did it on purpose. Of course, we expect to be called vampires and sugar-trustees, and all sorts of undesirable now de jnlgnfzes, and we d0n't doubt but that some gently chided creatures will want their moneys back, with interest and alimony. We have prepared for the worst.

Wliile thus incidentally thrusting at personal weakness, we have aimed in the main to make the annual a real and complete picture of our college life during the past year. You will find hints and pleasantries and names scattered through these pages that will recall pleasant memories to you twenty years hence. Though most of the volmne is printed in prose, latent poetic genius l1as been disastrously developed. We are sorry. If it must be, however, ,tis better that these pathetic stanzas should be ' 7
