10 VASSARION i iprefate feel the responsibilities of our position. Cognizant of the tendencies of our time, We see that the col- lege Woman is already weighed dovvn by accusa- tions both of over-seriousness and frivolityg and We vvould be most reluctant to add one inky printer,s page to her burden in either realm. We have recognized the danger and called in our Well-vvorn friend the Golden Mean, as our Summum Bonun'1,deeming it not unmeet that the frivolous and the serious should find a place in this volume side by side. To record the year simply, as We have seen it, is our aim, and We are Hinstinct with purpose. And finally, can any one, after noting carefully our exclusion of all matters of academic interest, deny our claim tovvard being able and industrious in the discernment of the great from the trivialu? Having stated our point of View it seems to us that possibly We ought to stop. And if We ought to, Why We must.
