Fore-word IN this year of the bicentennial anniversary of the birth of the Father of His Country what more appropriate theme could have been chosen for our 1932 Saxifrage than one of Washington inspiration? It is but a small tribute to the memory of the man who elicited such praise as the following from one of his officers: Our army love their general very much, but have one thing against him, which is the little Care he takes of himself in any action. His personal bravery, and the desire he has of animating his troops by example, make him fearless of danger. This oc- casions us much uneasiness. But Heaven, which has hope will still continue to nevertheless, we feel that worthy of the character it our bit toward honoring hitherto been his shield, I guard so valuable a life , if our book is in any way symbolizes, we have done George Washington - the gentleman, soldier, states- man, and friend.

.f4pprecz'azz'0fz gf Mr. Lifuermore T is a genuine pleasure to express a word of appreciation of the splendid services rendered by Mr. Frank S. Livermore to the Department of Education, and the educational institutions therein, through the State Teachers' College at Fitchburg. For several years the Department has had practically all of its printing done through the printing department so ably presided over by Mr. Livermore. We have always found Mr. Livermore prompt, willing, and courteous in meeting the wishes of the Department with reference to printed material. It is indeed fitting that the first Yearbook of the State Teachers' College at Fitchburg should be dedicated to one who has, for many years, served the institution with becoming modesty and unswetving loyalty. FRANK W. WRIGHT, For the Department of Education. K R. LIVERMORE is a prince. Faculty associates, men and women students, and state house ofiicials repeat this tribute so often to the beloved head of the printing department in Fitchburg Teachers' College. He is so kind- so even - so helpful - a gentleman always. We want to be just like you, Mr. Livermore. CHARLES M. I-IERLIHY, For the Faculty. HE real teacher is no mere surveyor of knowledge. He is one who delves and leaves some impression on the mold of characterg or who gives rise to inspiration. The alumni of our school have all been influenced by the character of Mr. Livermore. Those of us who have known him as a teacher have been taught and inspired by his kindness, gentleness, and sincerity. EDGAR W. FLINTON, '28, For the Alumni. R. LIVERMORE is a sincere friend, a conscientious teacher, and a man who has not only dared to set for himself the highest ideals but has had the courage and strength to uphold them. He has b'een the inspiration to many to give only the best they could to their profession and to be better even in the eyes of other people. WILLIAM H. TORNO, For the Class of 1932. l'f1gv Six
