HEADMISTRESS ' S MESSAGE Dear Samara friends: Many times I have heard you ask, nay plead, nay beg, for contributions and I don ' t want to be one of those who make your life difficult. Your editors spoke of the things you have learnt this year and I am sure, although I can ' t remember for certain, that one of them must have been patience, patience, and still more patience. Yes, that is a valuable characteristic to acquire, one useful in many a situation. It has been a great privilege over the years to be allowed a little space to use for a message to the school and I am sorry that this will probably be the last time. Who knows however. Maybe I will make, in other years to come, an unsolicited contribution or two, or three or more because I shall certainly be wishing the school good luck and great prosperity as I do now, with a full heart. Mrs. Gundy joins me in a message of good will. My happiest thought is that I leave you all in the caring hands of Mrs. White and Mrs. Gundy. Be as good to them as you have been to me and as they will be to you in the years to come. Mrs. Whitwill
