Introduction AST year saw the issuance of the first RED AND BLACK to be published after an interval of seven years. The editors certainly were successful in accomplishing all they set out , j- -1 l l to do. The book went from the first day of its publication. Last year's work, how- ever, was sold considerably under cost price, the difference being generously made up by the Recorder staffs of the school year '07-'o8. This year it is our aim, not only to make a book which will be differentufrom, and, if possible, even better than last year's production, but to render it financially successful as well. To more readily accomplish this result, we have issued a book in two bindings, in paper and in cloth, each edition to be sold only slightly be- low cost price. This change we trust will meet .with the approval of our readers and of the school. Our second innovation is the insertion of short stories and poems contributed by members of the school. In issuing this book our aims are two: we strive to interest our readers, and, at the same time, to present in brief, accessible, and yet pleasing form all information and statistics of importance concerning the school. XVe commend these our best efforts to the kindly judgment of our readers, whose criterion it is which shall pronounce: Success!,' or Failure!', Our sincere appreciation and thanks we desire to express to all our many friends whose kindly help and advice have aided us in our undertaking, especially to Dr. Sullivan. to Mr. Stone and to Mr. Stebbins. Particularly do We wish to express our regret at the resignation from ofhce of the Editor-in-Chief of this year's RED AND BLACK, Alan D. Smith, whom failure of health compelled to surrender his position to the present editor, and to whom we desire to here express our most earnest thanks for his splendid work in getting the book started. As the financial success of this Year Book is largely dependent upon its advertisements, we take this opportunity of calling our readers' courteous attention to this feature of the RED AND BLACK of nineteen nine. That our success may afford pleasure to others, that our failures may point the way to greater and better achievements in the days to come is the sincere wish and desire of 2 TI-112 EDITORS. 2 5
