QAPPRECIATION F you have never worked on the staff of a semi-annual journal you are probably not familiar with the fact that the hours lengthen into days, the days into weeks and the weeks into months ere the book is ready for press. Then the proof returns and new hours, longer hours, more strenuous hours are spent revising the work. Then it appears, a credit to the name of Commerce. You read it and you wonder where the staff have learned all the information. Praise for its excellence is due members of the faculty, printers, engravers, photographers-why even Tom Connolly had his share in this book by cleaning up Room ll6 daily after we had littered its floor with picture trim- mings. Mr. Monroe has been zealous in our behalf. Never were his new duties too strenuous for him to pause to hunt up slogans of our business firms, to find us samples of paper, to do one hundred things r HA that made the book what it is. We thank l him. Mr. White was always there when we needed him, just as he always is for all Com- merce interests. His oflice was always at our disposal. His helpful advice was used on many occasions and his discriminating eye caught many an otherwise ugly blunder. We appreciate his attention. So have they all, all whom we asked for help. The journal is Mrs. Schearer's pet child, so she says she does not count the hours she spends in arranging material, pictures, ads, etc. Miss Garbarino, Miss Clark, Miss Kirwin, Miss Best and Miss Cullen have been very , helpful to us in editing this work. And then the whole book could have been ruined in the making had not our printer, Mr. Reeves, given every page of it, his undivided attention. A photographers pictorial of you has much to do with making or breaking you in after life, so we thank Mr. Johnson. Speaking of photos, Mr. Colmore put on his best efforts in helping the Camera Club to function and we thank him and his understudy, Lester Kevie, for hours of work for us. Students of art are deserving of praise for drawings in this book, among them being Dorothy Schkade, Fred Jensen, Robert Per- due, Harry Strugnell, Lena Streito, Aida Rogerman, Chas. Mason and Quong Tom. While we are speaking of things and peo- ple to be appreciated we know of no place more fitting for another group of names, Chas. Troyer, Alexander Potter and Bert Tuttich, who for several years have devoted many hours of their time to arranging and setting the stage for our Dramatic events. They are dear to Commerce for their efforts in her behalf. l4l
