x 1 6 . CORKS AND CURLSl VOLXXI T is. probable that CORKJ' AND CURLJ would not have made this, its twenty- frrst bow, to the semi-appreciate, semi- censorious public if ttBory Robinson, the sedulous preserver of the antiquities of Vir- ginia, had not insisted that CORKJ AND CURLJ had now itself become an antiquity. He also convinced the editorial us that we were in no worse plight than the poor editor who had the ill-fortune to follow im- mediately the famous CORKJ AND f CURLJ of 235. We are also more for- ' A tunate than the editor of the CORKJ AND CURLf of too, in that, while he had no assistance from Laughlin, we as have received much sought-for advice and several literary con- - , - tributions from the editor of the 1:: now ttfamous edition of 1902? Indeed, for four years, Mr. L. D. Crenshaw has been the main- stay of CORKJ AND CURLJ. a The most marked deviation in this Annual from those of the two years just past is the absence of such metamorphoses as that of the ttOrancl Old Oirll, of the Law Class into a royal personage. It was felt that the editors of following years should be given a chance to indulge in such legerdemaln. For the literary contributions we cordially thank Captain Micajah Woods and Messrs. L. D. Crenshaw, O. L. Shewmake, L. R. Whipple, W. O. Ryburn, A. S. , Bolling, M. P. Robinson, C. O. Middleton. J. A. Ooerdeler, and J. S. Wilson. Three of the poems included were not written expressly for CORKJ AND CURLJ, but to j the carping critics we would say thatthey were published in the University of ' Virginia Literary Magazine before 1860, and we hereby make our due acknowl- edgments in that regard. r . For the art work we are deeply indebted to Messrs. Munson, Walker, Christy, Conrad, Wrenn, Bell and Rowell. We are also under perpetual obligations to . Misses Eastman, Johnson, Foster and Bowles for the art contributions from the fair sex to CORKf AND CURLf. Mr. Munson particularly deserves our thanks, for he even remembered us when he was in great sorrow. .L'Lv-f asp aw;-

He is an honor and an ornament to his State as a laWyer, a legislator, an orator and a statesman, and the University of Virginia has no son on its list of illustrious alumni whose. career is pointed to with more pride than that of the Senior Senator from Virginia'-and if the Presidency, in the order of events, could be bestowed upon a Southerner, the chances are that the mantle would fall upon his shoulders.
