We were told that the stories in our paper were very well written and we were encouraged to keep up the good work. Having gained this honor, we venture a step further this year in an endeavor to publish a year book. We feel that if our year book brings you but one moment of pleasure, our efforts will not have been in vain ! i o a A IT SJ loan J if •» o An O
