Stemtiorft Some few years ago the students of the various classes at Seattle College bound together in manuscript copy their best productions of the school year, and owing to the abundance and the quality of material they decided to issue at the close of the scholastic year the first College Annual. Why the publication was discontinued in subsequent years, we are not able to ascertain.

Practically every college and university of creditable size has either its monthly or its annual magazine; some still larger produce a daily paper, and in all but a very few cases, the same is an undoubted success. There were, of course, many difficulties to be overcome; a great many believed that the Annual would not become a reality, or rather they “doubted.” Thus there was among those to do the work no little hesitation; it was all new and strange.

And there is no reason why it should not be so. The Annual this year has its defects, many of them, no
