This, the Commencement Number, comes at the close of a very successful school year, of which we may all well be proud, for we have all con- tributed our share to it. Much of the success of the year along the various lines, social, athletic, and academic, of school activity is due to the efforts of our very competent faculty, Mr. J. E. Blaisdell, principalg Mr. W. D. Gilpatric, sub-master, and Miss Jessica Haskell, Miss Ellen Small, and Miss Melva Pettingill, assistants. It is also due to their able seconding of student endeavor that the publication of our paper has been made possible. We wish, at this time, to express our thanks and gratitude to them. This is the seventh issue that we have published this school year, and, compared with other schools, many of which are much larger than ours, which publish only one number, or at most, three per year, we consider that we have done unusually well. Our paper has been generously supported by our advertisers. We hope that our readers will patronize these advertisers Whenever possible. By such patronage we are helped, for, without advertisements we could not have published our Commence- ment Number. We are grateful to the business men who have made use of our columns. And now the Venture staff ends a most creditable year of work. We have cleared up a heavy debt on the school paper, a part of which dates back two years, and we have steadily paid our own way. We bid farewell to our patrons and leave our duties to the new staff. May they carry on as we have done! R. E. P., '27.
