he runestones of old Norway are a rich and varied source of interest and information. In the days of the Vikings they were cre- ated as records carved on rocks and wood in runic letters, accompanied by symbols in meaningful arrange- ments-dragons, serpents, warriors, crosses-which together told of great deeds, great men, and battles fought and won. They marked graves and sites of battles, and sometimes they were milestones and road-markers, set up to guide travellers. These runestones are his- tories which are brief but inclusive, crude but clear. They are the his- tory of a people, a culture, but are also in a sense a history of life. They are ancient and fascinating and valuable. But most of all, like the people who made them, they are rugged. . Our yearbook is a record, the record of a year at St. Olaf, which tells of deeds, people, conflicts, and accomplishments. Our book is a milestone and a road-marker-it shows where we have been and in what direction we are going. It can- not account for the full life of every student, or every situation, it must necessarily condense a whole yearls activity, but by this condensing it creates a clear, sharp picture-a record carved deeply so that time will not soon wear it away.
