Gem of the 1913 p FOREWORD That this edition of the ““Gem of the Mountains” will be criticized, both adversely and favorably, is a foregone conclusion. It is not up to our own ideals, but we offer no apology; taking all circumstances into consideration, we feel that we may be proud of the result of our work. It is no mean task for a small group of students entirely without experience to utilize everything to the best advantage in getting out a book such as this. No financial venture is ever quite stable under inexperienced manage- ment, however conscientious it may be. No editor or staff member can be as efficient on the initial trial as on those succeeding. In the case of the college annual, however, each class must surmount its own difficulties, and they are many. Nevertheless, the members of the staff have derived much pleasure from their connection with the yearbook, and the memories of its compilation will be those of pleasant dreams materializing—with modifications, perhaps—rather than those of irk- some duties being unwillingly performed. The editor takes this opportunity of thanking his helpers for the interest, the loyalty, the willingness to work that they have shown. Each department has been entrusted to its own editor, and on general matters, wherever possible, the entire staff has been consulted. To the staff, then, and not to the editor, belongs any praise that may be due. We express our thanks to those who have aided us, especially to President Mac- Lean, Harry Burke, ‘15, Proctor Perkins, '13, Chas. Horning, ’14, W. H. Mason, 12, Lois Rowley, °15, Laura Whitwell, '15, Gladys Lessinger, 14, Flora McConnell, '15, Edna Clarke, '14, Linda Rae, 12, for literary contributions; to Mark Anderson, '15, Edna Clarke, ’14, Bert Smith, 14, R. D. Leeper, '13, Vestal Hockett, ex- 12, and E. E. Smith, 14, for drawings; and to the many who have allowed us to use their kodak pictures. EDITOR.
