Hannum. css For a number of years we have held the ideal before us that our school should be the best and foremost in the state. There arc ideals of character toward which we should strive in addition to lead- ership in scholarship and extra-curricular activities. Some of these ideals are: courtesy, co-operation, courage, good health, honesty, industry, responsibility, reverence, and self-control. Frank W. DoOma. To the Students of Ot- tumwa High School: These High School days have a way of liv- ing in our memory long after they have passed away. I n this book you have a chronicle of events of a high school year, pictures of those who have made Ottum- wa High School history during the first year of a new decade. Let u s hope that what is found herein contributes to the upbuilding of those who have helped in the mak- ing and of those who read. Sincerely, Luella Hightshoe. Glhe. JPSCGrWS
