only to those in school, but to all our friends. We have also striven to make it a book of literary merit. How well this has succeeded, let the reader judge. The members of the staff have worked hard to make the AURORA a success. And at this time we wish to thank all who have assisted in contributions, finance and criticism. The favorable criticism so far outweighs the unfavorable that the latter will not be considered. If this book has been an inspiration to anyone to become interested in the Illinois Holiness University, one of the best schools in the land, its greatest purpose has been fulfilled.

So, we offer this AURORA as a representative of our earnest endeavors and our best work. -A. L. W., ' 15 [8]

We put into your hands this, our first, attempt, begging that you re- ceive it kindly; it being our first venture, we ask that you condone its faults and appreciate its virtues. We have endeavored to make- it not simply a record of school affairs, but a book of interest, not
