Editorial In offering this Year Book to the public, we are under the im- pression that it is a more complete record of the activities of the School during the year than previous issues have been; perhaps the number of activities has increased, or it may be that there are more willing contributors than in the past. While it is always something of a rush to collect the necessary material in time (for boys par- ticularly cannot be persuaded to produce their contributions until they are told that the next daiy will be too late), this year, at least, we cannot grumble at the amount of assistance that has been forthcoming and the readiness, even if at the eleventh hour, to undertake the production of material for another article. The Editor i? genuinely grateful to those who have helped him. There are, in particular, two articles to which we would call the special attention of our readers: the prize-wmnmg essay, written by our Head Prefect, R. L. BarnaVd, for the competition sponsored by the I.O.D.E., on the subiect ' Good Citizenship within the Brit- ish Empire, ' and a reprint of a circular letter sent to the Old Boys, asking for subscriptions towards the building of a gymnasium at the School as a lasting memorial to the Saltus Old Boys who ' fell m the two World Wars. As sent out, the letter is accompanied by a form suggesting that intending contributors should agree to donate a definite sum, spreading the payments, if they are desirous of so doing, over a period of three years. The goal has been set at £5,000, and, up to the moment of going to press, we understand that the total has reached just over £2,000. We hope that on Founder ' s Day we shall hear of a substantial increase over this figure.
