ECHO T H Prologue A PIONEER is essentially a man of great vision. Were he not his labors would seemingly be in vain. While hewing rude cabins in trackless forests, clearing land or slashing trails, there inevitably looms up before him that which some day will result from his efforts, his beginnings. We often wonder if the institution we have today on Interlaken Boulevard resembles to any degree the visions which those pioneer fathers must have had when they founded Seattle College in 1894. We sincerely believe it does and that belief encourages us to hope for better things to come. Seattle College, though still in its embryonic stage, is rapidly progressing. It has experienced encouragement in numbers of students and successful graduates, and it has been helped along by generous patrons. In view of these facts we believe that it is only proper to found or rather re-establish the annual publication that we may each year chronicle the progress of the institution. This, then, is the end in view in publishing this book. We are sincerely grateful to all those who have helped, financially and otherwise, in making this edition possible, and we only hope that we will be able each subsequent year to give to those interested in this school a book of higher quality than the present. If there are any shortcomings or unintentional errors remember that this is only a beginning. Our faults we trust will be written in water and virtues on tablets of stoik The Editor
