THE AITCHPEe1914 WHLLIAM Si ICAGLE OLGA BOGUSLAWSKY DOROTHY DUXBAR RUSSELL 8. WHITE Editor-in-Chlef Asslt Ed1tor Ass't Editor Business Nlanager QEiJitnriaI The future of the HAitchpe is a subject which well merits the thoughtful attention and consideration of everyone who has the honor and standing of the school at heart. Therefore it seems fitting to set down here any such hints and suggestions as may have occurred to us which would tend toward the betterment of future publications of this character. Of primary importance is the number of students which should constitute the staff. In years gone, by this number has been small, but as the school increased in size and distinction it seems to have been the aim of those selecting the staff that it too should keep pace in size with the school. That this is a mistake and that the work can just as thoroughly be accomplished by a smaller number with much less trouble and confusion are facts that should be kept in mind for the future. The staff has endeavored to prepare a volume that not only chronicles the main events of the year, but also mirrors to some extent the student activity in athletics, society, and the true Hyde Park spirit Which shines through all the deeds of gridiron, stage, 01' rostrum. To those of the faculty or student body who have by counsel 01' act aided us in 0111' undertaking we express 0111' sincerest thanks. This book we take great pleasure in presenting to the Senior class, and in dedicating- to the one who has given both to us, and t0 the class, the most unflagging assistance and advice, A. L. Penhallow. With these few remarks we retire from the foreground and let the book speak for itself. 19
