Promoters ln The old days pioneers from The ATlanTic seaboard fared wesTward inTo The wilderness of WesTern New York, and here and There along The rivers and The Indian Trails arose small seTTlemenTs of sincere home-seekers. Always almosT The firsT con- siderafion of These early people was The provision for The educaTion and Training of Their children. The meeTing house and The school house were someTimes builT before The cabins of The seTTlers were finished. Hamburg is a comrnuniTy where This TradiTion sTill survives. lTs business men and The parenTs of Today's younger people feel ThaT good roads, fine public buildings and The maTerial signs of prosperous Towns, essenfial Though They may be, are secon- dary To Those Things which make for culTure and spiriTual progress. Thus each year, even during The depression, This group of public-minded cifizens has supporTed The schools of Hamburg mosT generously, and has made every eTforT To make Hamburg a Town where young people may develop all ThaT is TinesT and besT in Their lives. The seniors of i936 will long remember wiTh pride The cooperaTion These men have given in The producTion of Their yearbook. LefT To righfz Mr. Joseph E. Leach. Secrefaryq Donald B.
