There were new windows that did not allow the cold winds to sweep across the rooms. The walls had all been decorated. There were new desks and the whole building was relighted. All this was done through the efforts of Mr Cumberland, Mr. Paul Fites, Mr. Roy Groninger, and Mr. l-larry Burdge. Now we are snug as a bug in a rug and can see on dark days. For all this We say Thanks.
