THE numbers on the covers of most
of the copies of this volume (four)
are wrong. The April number which
should have been one, is ten, and in
another instance the same number was
used on the covers of two successive
issues. This number is properly num
ber nine, the last of the year. No issues
have been omitted during the year, as
the number which failed to come out in
STATE COLLEGE, PA., MARCH, 1891.
EDITOR,
June, came out in September. Bearing
this change in mind, no inconvenience
can occur if the subscribers use the name
of the month instead of the number.
THIS issue of the LANCE completes
the year and finishes the work of
the present staff. The Seniors now
withdraw, a new staff is elected from
the three other classes, the manage 7
ment passes to the Junior class.
Looking back over the year we find
that the paper has had three editors
during that time, and that of the seven
associate editors elected at the begin
ning of the year, (April it, 'go), but one
has remained on the staff throughout
the whole time. At least three times
there has been a vacancy in one or more
departments of the staff just at the time
when the matter had to be prepared for
the coming issue. Some , of these
changes have been occasioned by stud
ents leaving the college, but that has not
been true in the majority or the cases.
No resignations' have been wished or
1 I
asked by the staff.
The bearing which these Changes have
had on the work of the paper needs no
explanation here, as it can more readily
be inferred. These remarks are not
made to reflect on or to justifyanyone ;
