FOREWORD IN THIS riO( )K, we. the Hoard of Kditors, in conferenee assembled, present to an apprecia- tive public and our admiring friends tlie unofliciai record of tbe doings of the School during 190. ' ), now for the first time called TERRA MAklAK. The name is symbolical of a truly united college. Terra Mariac, .Maryland first, last and all the time; in right or wrong; in pros- perity or poverty; in victory or defeat — stand by Old .Maryland, and swear by Terra Mariae! It is a new book with a new name, and in the seductive words of the circus poster of other and better days, Bigger and hetUr than e er before. I ' i.gger it certainly is; we have added a new department to the school. Better? ell, w-e hardly like to say. W ' l- feel disposed to lake the dear ])nblic and nur friends U the sacred editorial confi- dence in this matter, and instead of the labored and tlnwerv a])oliigetics usuallv found in this place to dispense some hard, cold facts. Now. our work being done, is hardly the time to scold and be- rate and complain; yet our little fling now may gild the labors ot the next set of iiniocent unfort- unates, who attempt to carry on this nionunient;d work. . t the beginning, our idea of the editorial function was an exalted one. We ])ictured our uol)le flve blue-iienciling and rejecting mauuscrijit with a loriUy and superior air, right and left. But the reality! It was daily, manual labor — nothing less — to extract from the various departments material enough to cover decently oar three liiindred bl.ink and staring pages. All this however, is done and over with, and the book, such as it is, is finished. It is a won- derful work. The wonder is. not that it is not perfect, nor better than it is — but that it is pub- lished at all. The uninitiati-d know little and care less about the labor involved in an undertaking of this kind; we are initiated — now — and while we have no desire to ajjjjcar otherwise than as the modfst and retiring gentlemen we reallv are, wc beg leave to think to our private selves that for the work done, all hands deserve great credit. Terra Mariae is meant to be a record and a remembrance for days to come, of our check- ered careers in the old A ' arsity — the happiest a nil best days, so wq are told, of all our lives. Tliis is the function of a college book; this is the essential thing, its raisoii d ' etre; when it is ac- complished, all else is supertluous. How well we li.ni ' done tbe our thing needful, we leave to tliosc for whom we have done it. to say. THE BOARD OF EDITORS.
