D E DIC ATIO N SOOTHE Class of 1925, who in the interest of St. Thomas, sacrificed the privilege of publishing the 1925 Kaydet, this hook is respectfully dedicated. No small measure of apprecia- tion is due the group of willing and interested workers who made up the staff of the 1924 annual and who would have produced a cred- itable book for 1925 had such a book been possible. To these men and their class as- sociates, who with such a splendid spirit have foregone the traditional year book, with the honors which its production incur, the staff of the Kaydet for 1926 extends its sincere good wishes.

FOREWORD LS3 X this, the 1926 Kavdet, we have at- tempted to present a eross-seetion of the activities in the College and Academy for 1925-1926. However, because there was no Kavdet for 1924-1925, we have, in a measure, attempted to breach the gap with as many of the high lights from that season as could lie crowded into a hook so complicated and restricted as is this one. The editors have received the fullest co-operation of the several departments of the school in gathering their materials. Particular mention should he made here of the assistance of the Rev. Edmund Cough- lin and students of the Art Department for ideas and drawings without which this hook would he very dull indeed. The past two years have seen a healthy growth in St. Thomas generally. Depart- ments have broadened and new ones have been added, activities and organizations have increased. If our friends, therefore, glean from this modest issue the fact that St. Thomas is going forward, that its progress is tilling the need for Higher Catholic Edu- cation in the great Northwest, then, the editors of this hook will feel their work well done.
