The Editor s Page fC£ CLASS is a fleeting and transitory sort of thing. Its members gather from all parts of the country, spend four years together in work and AKaQ pleasure, and go their ways again. During these busy years of prep- Vh p aration there imperceptibly grows upon them a feeling of affection for the institution, the depth of which they will probably never fully realize until the four years are over and they must leave. Once graduated, the class is no longer a unit; it is merely a group of individuals never to be gathered together again, whose occupations, hopes, and ambitions will be as varied as their tastes are different. The University, the one bond that has held them together, will no longer be present in their daily lives ; for the future, the only link that can unite them will be the memory of their life together. A class leaves behind it but one tangible record to evoke this memory: in the years to come the Junior Annual alone remains as a memorial of the years spent in the University. It is with full appreciation of this that the Class of 1917 has produced the present volume of The Wyo. The task has been by no means an easy one, and the members of the class have worked hard and earnestly. It remains with the reader to determine what degree of success or failure we have attained. We will feel that our efforts have not been in vain if, in after years, the turning of these pages will bring to you happy recollections of the best of all days — those of undergraduate life. The Editor.
