Annual should not be. Most mistakes were so patent that they could easily be detected and avoided. And it is gratifying to see how rapidly and consistently the Annual has improved from the year following to the present. For whatever negative instruction this initial venture may have afforded, the first staff claim some modest share of the credit. It is especially interesting to note that a woman editor was chosen the next year to correct the errors that her man predecessor had made. This sketch would lack completeness if no mention were made of the hoodoo that attended The Cotton-Tail. In the first place, Mr. Kendall, the beloved President of the Normal, to whom the Annual was dedicated, died at the beginning of the following ses- sion. Later in that session, the yearbook was rechristened The Yucca, and The Cotton-Tail was no more. Finally, even the name of the Kendall-Bruce Literary Society, of which The Cotton- Tail editor-in-chief had been a member, was changed to Robert E. Lee. Truly, for the Normal, as well as for the bunny, one ' Cotton- Tail ' was enough. 22
