Introduction. INCE the class of ’92 introduced the Moputwus into the arena of college annuals, S succeeding classes have consecutively abandoned the idea of publishing class souvenirs until the mantle of responsibility descended upon the present Juniors, who having taken up the idea with their characteristic enthusiasm, and in spite of obstacles which attend any attempt to leave the beaten track, now present this second Moputus to the friends of Rose. As with all college annuals, its primary object is to be a souvenir of the class pub- lishing it, in a measure to chronicle the happenings of the year, and if possible to let the light rest glimmeringly upon those traits of character and consequent actions which will bring our college days vividly to mind in after life. This being the first Junior annual for Rose Polytechnic, the name Moputus was not adopted from any sense of obligation, but in the hope that a precedent might be established which would lead succeeding classes to the choice of this title for similar publications. We are under obligations to Mr. J. B. Aikman, Secretary of the Alumni Associa- tion, Professor Wickersham and others for the articles they have kindly contribut- ed, and extend our thanks to our many friends for the aid and encouragement they have given us, and without which the publication of the MopuLus would have been impossible.
