'F 7' illeh anh Mark 7'4 i Every year, in order that the members of the Senior Class may know of the existence of a great and wonderful journal known as the Red and lllack, the staff is given this space. We take it gladly but if we were to throw bouquets at ourselves by telling all the great and wonderful things that we have done you would call us liars and furthermore since a prophet getteth the hook in his own coun- try we shall abstain from any sermons. llowever, we cannot let this opportunity pass by without endeavoring to express our gratitude for the great and generous support you have given us, especially for those gentle words of encourage- ment you always had for us when our honorable paper was only overdue a few weeks. We wish to thank as well for the generous praise concerning the cover, the personals, etc., when finally it did appear. Vile also desire to thank such contributors as Rudyard Kipling, Laura Jean Libbey, the Duchess. Lydia Pinkham and others whose contributions although not accepted unfortunately through lack of space, have been very much appreciated. With the hope that the anvil chorus of knockers, who have advised so readily in the past, will some day have to edit a paper. we bid you farewell. 109
