THE 1910 MINNEISKA Foreword vpigmfaiqv ITI-I expectant hope We present Volume II. of the N 'fo of' 1 Mlnneiska. We have strived tobringout a book L9 portraying as nearly as PER 2:5 ji? may be our school life at ' A apart from classroom rou- tine. We have made an effort to improve upon our first annual. Per- manence and artistic finish have been the goal of our endeavor -that, in future y-ears, all may retain the best impressions of the real enjoy- ment experienced in these quickly passing happiest years of lifef, If, far on in the ages, one heart, Weary with life's struggle, may be gladdened by these pages, We shall be repaid for our efforts. If hearts, mellowed by age, shall be grateful to us for this token, then shall we have accomplished our aim. 7

THE 1910 MINNEISKA MH here can lthis castle-like svtrucrture be seen? High up on a hill of beautiful green, In the town of Whitewater, known ,far and wide, The most fitting place for the young to reside. Each of its turrlets s-tavnicls up straight and tall Wilth a ,splendor that's regal, all love to recall. And students who enter the grounds day by day, The impressions of beauty they carry away. Every bush, tree, and flower upon the green lawn, Reaches e'en to the hearts of those wh-o are gone. or can we forget them when at la-st we depart Or fail to carry them with us in heart. Round each of the class rooms cling memories dear, lVlem'ries that call forth laughter and tear. All too soon will this castle fade from -our sight Like many a treasure in which we delight. o soon will we scatter and take up the newg Come what there may, we shall always be true. I-low we shall miss them, no one can tell, Uur schoolmates and teachers whom we know so well, Our own Alma lVlater, our 'own Normal School. Long life to Whitewater, her fame and her rule. 8
