6 THE ECCENTRIC. the feeling of the parent whose son goes out untried into the world to bear the family name and honor. We know the boy has kind friends who will receive him well, yet so much is expected of him that it is only natural that those who guided his steps should feel anxious lest he should fall below the high standard set for him. Our work is done; the duty of the parent accomplished ; and for our offspring we ask the kind- ness of those with whom he comes in contact. It is a matter to be regretted that the two Annuals supported by Stevens, both of which are far above the average grade of undergraduate publications, should continue to divide the College into antagonistic factions, when such brilliant results might be looked for, could the old order be resumed. The time for that, however, does not seem to be yet ripe. In the old days the College was a unit, and men worked together for her advancement. Parties were unknown, and Alma Mater was the watch-word. And now what a change! War to the knife waged by a seceded party against the representatives of the old regime. THE ECCENTRIC, as the organ of the College, deplores this state of affairs. It seems both short-sighted and prejudicial, and it is to be hoped that in the not far distant future, these petty struggles will die out, and the only party consist of the College at large. The result of many hours of hard work and many of pleasant planning and anticipation, has at length taken tangible form and added another little monument to the list of those that mark our progress; and now, gentlemen of the Faculty, fellow students and friends, THE ECCENTRIC for 1888 is yours. That something of interest or amusement for each one of you may be found among its pages, is the earnest wish of THE EDITORS.
