 TRANCES FREIOT GILBER 
 
PREFACE 
 
 TJOW many of the college and seminary girls of other days 
 have regretted that they did not preserve a record of their 
 interests and pleasures when students ! Those days oi bright 
 
 hopes, freedom from serious responsibility, warm friendships, and 
 enthusiastic enjoyments will always linger in the memory like a 
 sweet savor, it is true, but how much more effectively il given 
 tangible form ! 
 
 The designer of this volume has realized that the conventional 
 "Journal" is too dry and unattractive to be popular, despite its value, 
 and that a record of school daws should be characteristic and unique, 
 to command attention, and as dainty and pleasing as possible, to 
 make it worth keeping. It is believed that the result of her efforts 
 will be welcomed now, and thankfully regarded in distant years. 
 The title does restrict it to "college" girls, strictly speaking, but it 
 will be valuable, as well as entertaining, for any who leave home 
 as students.
