m J 0i[ial. HE College Kaleidoscope has made another revolution, and out of the debris emerge the present Board, with a sense of duties and work before it. The year just closing has been in a measure eventful. To begin with, Purdue was beaten at foot-ball, which fact astonished the student body no less than the western College world. On the heels of this never to be repeated event came the disastrous night of the 2; d of January, when the Haivelon Engineering Laboratory, the pride of Purdue, and of Indiana, went up in smoke. That this misfortune will prove more than a temporary inconvenience, no Purduian believes for a minute, or that when another Debris Board shall begin their task, the shops will not stand, as form- erly, in their old accustom ed place, one brick higher than before, a tribute to the ceaseless etibrts and untiring energy of President Smart and his co-workers, the Faculty. With this possible exception, the year has been one of advancement in every department, and the Board of Editors have plunged into their work with a determination to produce a corresponding improve- ment in their annual. If, in the clearing up and assortment of the debris, any of the falling trash has been unwittingly dropped upon anyone, let him not wax wroth, but bear all with indifference, con- soling himself with the thought that his turn will come, and that he who laughs last, laughs best. In conclusion, we desire to extend our thanks to those who have aided us in any way, either financiall} ' , or by suggestion, and with this we place the ' 9 Debris before you for your enjoyment or criticism, and hope those who criticise wil l remem- ber that while Authors are partial to their work ' tis true, Are not critics to their judgment, too ?
