The Editor=in=Chief ' s Apology. Readers of the ' 01 Debris, Members of the Faculty and Student Body : In sending out the ' 01 Debris, believe a few words of explanation are due Me. Born, when quite young, in the sandy doons of Scotland, at two years of age took My parents by the hand and led them into the Highlands, where soon lost them. I spent My youthhood skipping and playing with the young lambkins and other such docile quadrupeds, from which acquired that spirit of meekness which is so characteristic of all that I say and do. am, as you well know,, a Self -Made man ; confident of My ovra ability I have steadfastly refused to let out the contract. Four years ago fate led Me to Purdue. It is not necessary that review My career since Purdue has been connected with Me. Cream rises. I have come to the top. Last year I was com- pelled to assume the responsibilities of the editor-in-chief of the ' 01 Debris. The class is to be congratulated upon its selection, for not only am 1 a Man of sound judgment and phenomenal ability, but I flatter Myself that I am quite polite as well, and have received several leather medals for My gallantry to the ladies, among whom 1 have always been a Great Favorite. My polished manners and winning ways make Me a Hero wherever I show up. also know how to preside with dignity and ease, and have recently written an article for the Texas Siftings upon ' ' ( ' orreet Posture, or the Art of Being Graceful. But to re- turn to the subject. feel that I must ofFer a few apologies for the ' 01 Debris. The book does not suit Me exactly. Had My time not been so limited, I should have done all the work Myself. and have run no risk in the matter, for do think know a riglit smart about literary work. 7 have done My best to keep out the work of the other members of the staff; but, in spite of My watchfulness, a few non-Wilson articles have crept into the book, and have, fear, stamped it. Trusting that you are capable of appreciating high- grade work, such as My Own, and that you will pardon the shortcomings of My most inefficient staff, I send out this book, which I should like to have dedicated To that spirit of progress which is so characteristic of our age. Sincerely yours, The Unmitigated A. M. We print the above in Red so that it will be re(a)d.
