Mr. G. Donald Melville [IN APRPREGTA TION The January and June Classes of 1939 wish to extend their appreciation to Mr. G. Donald Melville for his outstanding efforts in bringing the yearbook, Caduceus, to its present high standard. In 1926, Mr. Melville became the first faculty sponsor of the newly formed Caduceus. He was the sole counselor until 1930, when he was relieved of the editorial advisership. Mr. Mel- ville then became manager, a position he held until his resignation last June after twelve years of service. Last spring an editorial page of the Springfield Union contained a paragraph eulogizing the Page 5 originality and scholastic standing of two differ- ent issues of Caduceus, those of 1934 and 1938. The first of these was the Time Magazine issue, in which Mr. Melville collaborated with Miss Harriet M. Johnson, literary adviser for seven years. The second later received one of the highest literary awards that is given to a school yearbook, a rating of first place in the Columbia University Scholastic Press Association. We feel that a great part of the success which Caduceus has attained is due to the unfailing interest and the long hours of work contributed by its founder, Mr. G, Donald Melville.

MR. A. ABBOTT KAPLAN During thelatter part of our stay at the High School of Commerce, it has been our privilege to welcome cordially our new assistant principal Mr. A. Abbott Kaplan. He has proved himself so great an asset to the school that now we do not see how we ever sufficed without him. Hiskeen understanding, his pleasing personality, and his initiative have made us sincerely ap- preciate his guidance. Wewish him a long and successful stay at the High School of Com- merce! MR. S. 0. SMITH Our principal, Mr. S. O. Smith, has been responsible for the success of our senior classes. Working both with the groups as a whole and with many of the individuals, he has made our stay here at the High School of Commerce as pleasant and profitable as possible. He has aided us unceasingly with program difficulties, questions of employment, and even with domes- tic problems. When we have asked him for aid in times of trouble, he has given his assistance most willingly. We hope that we have shown him how much we appreciate his efforts, for his sincerity, honesty, and frankness have made us regard him as a true friend. He's very firm and steadfast; He stands with chin outthrust, Aggressive in his purpose, Determined in his trust. He's here to make us finer In thought and word and deed, To stand with him in triumph Before his noble creed. He's very stern and rugged, His eyes a chilled, blue sword, Yet gentleness and humor Lurk glinting in each word. Page 6
