Foreword . . . Since the Batavian has been published earlier this year than in former years, some of the spring activities are held over until next year's annual. Any change in policy involves disadvantages as Well as advantages. Naturally the staff regrets that omissions were necessary but hopes for the understanding of its problems. Pictures cannot be taken or engravings made when activities are still incom- plete. The early publication date makes possible more thorough work on the part of the staff and frees them from staff work well in advance of June exams. With plenty of time to secure signatures, there Will be no need of rushing. If all will cooperate in this matter, there will be fewer objections to this popular phase of our year book. Tradition is a splendid preserver of unity and spirit, but without innovations there could be neither continued life nor tradition. The class of 1938 has sponsored several innovations which it hopes may be worthy of becoming traditions. One of these is a new school song. Now the annual staff is venturing a new division of the yearbook. Perhaps you will like it better than the old. We hope so. The staff has enjoyed compiling this diary of the class, and we hope it will preserve lasting memories of our years in B. H. S.

Library . . . At the opening of the Richmond LibrQ-ary on December 1, 1937, Mrs. Mulcahy unveiled a bronze tablet in memory of Miss Booth, librarian from 1899 to 1935. The remodeling of the library included the installation of indirect lighting, a children's room and redecoration. Miss Mabel Case Was appointgdihead librarian. Her assistants are Miss Mary Bean, Miss Marion Simmons, MissfD. Olive Croft, Miss Vernice Bennett. The library is a great advantage to the city, but it concerns primarily B. H. S., because it is a school library first, and a community library second.
