Mrs. DOTSG37 EI1CiOI'SeS WOFiQ NOTE: When the Student Body announced the decision to get out an Annual the members were greatly pleased and encouraged to receive the following letter of commendation and approval from the Superintendent of Schools, Mrs. Susan M. Dorsey: The Letter: OFFICE OF SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS h February 1, 1923. Committee on Publication Maple Avenue Evening School Annual, Los Angeles, California. Dear Friends: p You are to be congratulated upon your plans for issuing another An- nual setting forth the aim and accomplishments of the Maple Avenue Even- ing High School, especially in view of the merit of your former publication. Fine work is being done by principal, teachers and students. Long since this school passed the experimental stage. Your vocational Work is varied and excellent while the opportunities offered for improvement in English and the Fine Arts are increasing with each year. It must be a source of real satisfaction to all who have watched the school from the beginning to note the lengthening list of those Who have profited by its instruction and have become its loyal supporters. ' This phase of adult public education, through which the man on the job is helped to do his Work better and the woman who desires to improve herself in an occupational or academic Way has an opportunity for such betterment, is looming larger each year. It promises Well for the future of society and the state that increasing numbers of men and Women in school and out of school are recognizing that education is not a thing ac- complished in youth, but is a progressive and continuous process. ' ' Very truly yours, p Susan M. Dorsey, Superintendent. Page Twenty-six
