OREWORD This is the CaLVX of 1912. The edi- tors bespeak your in- dulgence of its short- comings and faults (editors always do that) ; fur- ther, we would offer these few words of explanation. The Calyx is a combination annual record and memory book. In it, by custom, are incorporated records of the student-body and its activities from year to year. And by the same custom the book is illustrated. We have not departed from such justly honored precedents. Some things that we ha e done, however, we should like to ex- plain. We have introduced much more of reading matter than the books of other years have contained. This change we believe justified by the mat- ter. It is all of more or less intimate application to our Alma Mater. Some of it is humorous, and all of it is in good spirit. We hope that it will be so received. We are frank to admit that we have spared none, and may perhaps have committed lese majeste. The only apology for such an act is that it is all for fun. The pictures of the book are of and by our friends and the places we love, the only exceptions of note being the series of the society department. Our hesitancy to attempt to depict the charms of those events led us to commit that task to the artists of the E. A. Wright Company. They are hand-colored for the sake of naturalness. Aside from our effort to provide some pleasure and a rec- ord of the current year of our university life, we ask no credit for our book. And we beg our friends to keep in mind these purposes to which we have limited ourselves. We hope that others may get as much pleasure from the book as we have taken in its preparation.
