A FTER seeing so many good and pleasing contributions which have been sent in for Samara, I am wondering if there is really going to be room for this message from me, for which you have very kindly asked. It is gratifying to know that this year Samara returns to its old form in print and style. None of us were very happy, I think, about last year ' s neces- sary experiment. As I write these words the end of the school year is in sight and my thoughts go back— ends always make one think of beginnings — over all the weeks and months we have worked and played together since September. I hope that it has been a happy year for all of you. I would like to say a special thank you for the many ways in which you have made it a happy one for me. I thank you for the cheery morning greetings when you smile at me with your eyes. I thank you for work well done; for all the services you have cheerfully rendered; for the help given by the elder to the younger ; for good sportsmanship, not only on the games field, but also when a much hoped for privilege had to be denied, because it was outside the regulations; for the times when criticism has been hard to take but you have taken it, and turned failure into success. The worth of a school is measured not by its numbers but by the spirit which animates each and every one of us who have the privilege of being part of it. • My love and affectionate greetings to you all!
