SISSON Editorial I am glad to present the “Green White” to its readers this year. The staff has attempted to do its level best to satisfy. 1 also extend my appreciation to the contributors, advertisers, and to all others who have in any way assisted. Graduates, this is your book, cherish it and preserve it. There is throughout Nature something mocking that leads us on and on, but arrives nowhere, keeps no faith with us. All promises outrun the performance. We live in a system of approximations. Man imprisoned, man crystallized, man vegetative, speaks to man impersonated. “Tout genie a deux faces; l’une tournee vers le temps, 1’autre vers 1’eternite.” EDITOR. BANKING 1927-1928 Banking has been an extremely important and successful activity at Colt Memorial. We have ranked, with two other schools in the Yankee Division, which includes high schools in the New England states, at the top of the list, having maintained a 100% record throughout this school year with the exception of three weeks when our record fell to 98%. From September. 1927 to April, 1928, Colt students have deposited $4046.51, the average monthly deposit being $455.89. Withdrawals have been decreased greatly, the students gradually realizing the advantages of long time deposits. Many have started accounts for others in their family. Such accounts are not considered in obtaining the school average, however. so that a 100% Banking Day” means that every student present has made a deposit that day. Colt Memorial is proud of its record in banking. Miss Annie D. Sisson of the faculty is school thrift adviser.
