THE ORIGIN OF THE NAME. Many people have been puzzled as to the origin of the name of our annual, and have inquired as to its source. The present staff decided to find the origin of the name, and to set it forth in the present issue of the annual. In going back to the first issue of the annual they discovered that the name, “Osky Wow,” was selected, by the staff of the initial annual from a number of suggestions. The name was derived from the first part of our eldest yell and where the yell came from is not known to the present students of J. H. S. You now know the source of the name as set forth by the staff of the first annual and how could we for- get this old, familiar yell that has been shouted in defiance, year after year by lusty threats, on many a hard fought field ? All together now, and let it ring! OSKY WOW WOW! WISKEE WEE WEE! HOLY MACK-A-I JACKSON HIGH RAH!
