Probably few of us are acquainted with all the ways in which the college endeavors to preserve everything of interest in in regard to the classes which graduate from year to year. One of the most interesting sets of records are the class photograph albums which are kept in the library. The earliest class pictures are daguerreotypes of the class of 1852. Beginning with the class of 1853, albums of photographs have been kept down to the present time.

They contain besides pictures of all the members of the class, the most important groups that have been taken by the class photographs, such as the athletic teams, the class day officers and the principal societies.

It is unnecessary to point out the interest of these albums, or the great importance that they should contain the picture of every member of the class. To all the graduates, their class albums have an especial interest, while they are also of interest to visitors never connected with the college. The latter is especially true of the athletic pictures. For the convenience of the many who wish to see the albums, those of the last two classed are always kept in the art room over the delivery room in the library.

Within the past two or three years the albums have not been as complete as formerly. It is to be hoped that ninety-three will do their best to help their photographic committee in its efforts to make this year's album complete.
