PROF. SAMUEL G. SANDERS pROF. SAMUEL G. SANDERS was born in Cheraw, S. C, in 1852. At the age of nine- teen he graduated from Wof ord College, easily leading his class, and with the record of being ex- ceptionally pure and noble. After graduating he came to Texas, and for three years was a professor in Salado College. In 1874 he was elected to the professorship of Ancient Languages in Southwestern University, and after spending a year at the LIniversity of Vir- ginia, equipping himself more thoroughly for the position, entered upon his long and useful career as professor in our institution. Here for seventeen years, with firm gentleness and thoroughness, influencing with his beautiful character all who came in contact with him, he labored. He found Southwestern but a piece nf unmoulded clay; he spent the best part of his life in moulding that clay. On September 30, 1892, he died. To his mernory this volume of The Soii ' ivester is most affectionntely and gratefully dedicated. i i

GREETING N PRESENTING this volume to you, Oh Lover of Southwestern, we, Tlie Sou ' wester staff, feel that we have fallen far short of suc- cess, and have failed to accomplish what was expected of us. For you, cartoonists have dipped their pens in the ink of exaggeration and painted your eccentricities ; for you poets have sung of the joys and sorrows of college days; aVjout you, wits and others have written as funny as they dared. We ourselves have spent not a few busy and pleasant hours in preparing this volume. And now that it is finished, we alone take all the blame for its shortcomings. Yet, if, when in after years your college days shall seem as tender, as sweet, and as fresh as the soft breezes that fan the wild flowers along the San Gabriel ' s banks in spring-time — if then, in turning over the pages of The Sou ' wester, of nineteen hundred and ten, you shall recall with a kindly smile, or perchance with a sigh, the friend- ships, the deeds, of those shining days of long ago, we shall not have failed in our work. In conclusion, let us extend our truly heart-felt thanks to the many who have aided in the production of this volume. L
