And finally the paper is out on the desks and in the mail submitted for reading and criticism. Now that you know what we do perhaps you are wondering what we do it with. We have a typewriter with extra-small elite type two mimeoscopes fone in running orderj and a new mimeographing machine. We also have other small equipment.

Their biggest problem by far has been in the securing of necessary funds to make this annual. Of course the business manager did solicit subscriptions but that wasnt half enough. The rest was gotten through the sale '26

Another problem was the securing of snap- shots. This was done through a senior snap- shot party and by student's donations. Most of the pictures, however, had to be taken by our photography editors to fill the extra snapshot pages that are in the annual this year. At the Northern Interscholastic Press as-Q sociation held in Grand Forks last year, the Viking rated A and was the best printed annual in its division. It also was the best Min- nesota annual entered. Viola Bloom, Leona Writer represented the Viking at the conven- tion. This is the sixth Viking published and is the fourth to be printed. The other two were mime- ographed and planographed. As you probably have noticed, this annual has been improved as much as our limited resources allowed. The new, streamlined cover is different from any- thing used previously and the editor has tried her best to make the make-up of the book varied and interesting.
