TheAdvance staff hopes to have this edition readyfor distribution by the first week in May. Ifthis is possible, it will be the earliest date onrecord in this school, at which such an editionhas been put in circulation.And Avhy should not the Annual be in thehands of every one by this date rather than thelast week of school Avhen every one is toorushed to enjoy it ? There is but one thing thatcan keep the book from being out by this time,and if every one will observe the followingrules, there will be no cause for fear but thatit Avill be in circulation by this time.First: EAeryone must feel entirely free toask any member of the staff for informationat any time.Second: All pictures are to be made at thestudio of any photographer who advertises inthe Advance.All pictures to have a dark background.All pictures to be made full cabinet size.Third: All classes should see the businessmanager, Mr. Henry Knauth, as early as possible, and contract for the amount of write-upspace, and number of cuts which will be desired.(Note).

This surmounting disaster crept upon us like a thiefin the night, so to speak, and although warnings had been sounded many times, yet manyunfortunate students were caught entirely unprepared for such a mishap.The one consoling thought left to the manyonlookers is that something like five out ofeA^ery seven students in school escaped. Thislarge number saved, is due largely to the untiring efforts of the faculty, and to them ourgrateful thanks is herewith tendered.
