We, The Sou ' wester staff of ' 12, find great consolation in the proverb Pride goeth before a fall, for there is an abso- lute lack of affected pride amongst us over the merits and demerits of this book, and we humbly trust that with the pride absent the fall will also not appear, and that this volume of The Sou ' wester will receive from you the commend- ation we have attempted to win for it. This is truly Southwestern ' s book this year; published for the first time by the student body, and with the medical college no longer represented, its contents concern Southwestern only, and we have attempted to make it depict your college days in 1 9 1 1 - ' I 2 so that it will be to you an ever-living reminder of the scenes through which you passed, and of the friend- ships you formed in your college days. Our sincere thanks are extended to the many without whose un- selfish co-operation this book could never have been.
