Some of it has meant an improvement in our work, and some of it, much to our sorrow, has not been put to the best use. However, we would like to ex­ press our appreciation of your help and to recognize in some tangible way your kindness and patience to­ ward us at all times. Your position is not an easy on© and yet we kno-w that yiou have tried to act your part and have shown faithfulness and devotion to your work and been cour­ teous to us at all times to an amaz­ ing degree.
