CLASS SONG
We are the Class of '26, Once more we gather here To bid farewell to classmates And friends we love so dear. For now we different paths pursue, The gate to fortune find, But tho' we're gone, we'll ne'er forget The friends we've left behind.
This is our graduation night, Our turning point in life; With strong determination We enter in the strife. And to our thoughts and words and deeds Our motto we'll prefix: We're all for one and one for all, The Class of '26.
Class Colors: Blue and Gold
Class Motto: All for One and One for All

The following improvements have been made the past year, namely: Newport Avenue from the junction of same and Highland Avenue to the State Line, one forty foot joint ownership between Postal Telegraph Cable Co., Attleboro Steam & Electric Co., and the New England Tel- ephone and Telegraph Company has been substituted for two thirty-five foot pole lines previously existing in this street, also the new line has been built to conform as nearly as possible to the new street bounds.
Arrangements have been completed and the work about fifty per cent finished for relocating the French Cable line which heretofore passed through the center of the Civic Zone. When completed this will remove all poles from the junction of South Main and Wall Streets, through Rail- road Avenue to Park Street, making Railroad Avenue to be the first street from which all overhead wires and poles will be removed.
We anticipate the year 1927 will see the completion of the removal of all overhead telephone wires within the Civic Zone and also the completion of increased underground telephone cable facilities, thereby making it possible for the above company to give its subscribers better service.
It is very imperative owing to the increased amount of traveling to various parts of the city that this office be supplied this year with a small car for wire inspection purposes.
I wish to extend my sincere thanks to His Honor, the Mayor, and the Municipal Council and all officials and citizens for the courtesy and hearty co-operation extended to this office the past year.
Respectfully submitted,
JOSEPH H. NEWCOMB, Electrical Inspector
