J. NOVAK PRINTING CO. Bardwell Block Rutland, ......... Vermont THE SPOTLIGHT 5 The close of the school year is swiftly drawing near. To most of us who look back over the past activities, the year has been bright. Certainly it has not been without accom- plishments. In athletics we have fared normally well. In other phases of our school life we have mingled enjoyment and pleasure with our work and the results have been satis- fying. But the accomplishment to which we, as senior editors, look back, is the successful beginning of a school paper. The task has not been easy and in many respects it has been al- most discouraging, but as we turn now from our places to give them up to those who are to follow us, a feeling of regret passes over us that our connection with the paper will hith- erto be only that of alumni. We believe that a school paper is one of the finest ways to get students into fellowship with each other. We believe that a school paper reflects the gen- eral standing of a school more than anything else. We believe that a school paper is one of the outstanding influences which a school has upon the outside world, and as we now pass on out of our high school life, we cannot but hope that our fol- lowers will carry out our beliefs, and make the torch which we have handed on to them burn with a greater brightness than before. And so, with these hopes for the future, we bid good-bye, hoping that the heritage we transmit is bigger, better, and more beautiful than that transmitted to us. We wish to acknowledge the kindness shown by members of the school in loaning their cameras for use in taking photo- graphs. We also wish to express our thanks for the thirteen dollars given us by the Girls’ Club.

fi THE SPOTLIGHT GREETING. To the “Spotlight,” to our school, and to all other schools, greeting. We, as the new editorial board of the “Spotlight,” take our responsible positions with mingled joy and sorrow. Joy at the honor which has been bestowed upon us, joy in the thought that we can do something for the high school which is so much to us, and sorrow in the thought that our first editorial board, consisting of members of the class of ’23, is leaving us. This class of 1923 will always be remembered as the founder of our school paper. Through their efforts, the “Spotlight” was first a success. We can hope for nothing more than to continue their good work. If we accomplish this we will be satisfied. MARY WELSH, ' 24.
