The Editor and Staff of “The Washingtonian” take this opportu¬ nity to thank the faculty, advertisers, students, and alumni for their help in making this book a success. The co-operation of all has made the task of preparing this book a pleasant and enjoyable one. The financial problem was the difficult one to solve as the amount of money needed could not be raised by subscription alone. The splendid help of the business men of the township, who have given us their advertisements, has enabled us to publish this annual. To Mr. Kibby and Mr. Wright we wish to extend our hearty thanks. Without their aid and advice, we would have been at a loss to solve the many problems which confronted us in the publishing of this book.
