Washburn "Ichabodian," the 1915 college annual, was distributed yesterday. College students spent the remainder of the forenoon scanning the 450 pages of real Washburn history. All of the 475 copies were sold before the printing was done, so the managers simply had to hand out the volumes as the purchasers called. Seventy-five copies were printed as a de luxe edition with leather cover and name burned in and covered in gold letters. The big surprise of the annual editors was the change of the name from "Kaw" to "Ichabodian." This seeded to be peculiarly appropriate in that thi3 is the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the college and the name of Ichabod Washburn is on the lips of everyone connected with the Institution.

The red line page border is also a new feature, and together with the new name and the art work, came in for considerable commendation. Frank Peers, editor-in-chief, and members of the staff are being congratulated upon the fine appearance of the anniversary annual. Better cookies, cake and biscuits, too. All as light, fluffy, tender and delicious as mother used to bake. And just as wholesome.
