CHEERS! THE HOME FOLKS After we’ve seen and applauded the pro- moters, we begin to look for those we know more intimately. Here they come. Mr. Daf- fron and his car mates, Mr. Bowen and Miss Wilson, will receive a hearty, even vociferous welcome as they move by the crowds on the curb. For they represent our own, very per- sonal contribution to the parade. We know how they have worked to make our participa- tion notable, to afford us the opportunity to make a showing in which we can take hon- est pride. All together now, three big cheers. W. 1,. DAMRON, B. S.; A. M. Principal Look they’re smiling. Every- thing must be go- ing as they hoped it would. So, fall in, every body, we're on the move. LOWELL K. BOWEN Vice-Principal G. MARION WILSON Advisor to Girls (three)

MR. GEORGE L. BLACKWELL Superintendent of Schools Who will act as marshall of the Big Pa- rade? Superintendent Blackwell, of course. Here he comes, a gallant Good Joe mounted on a prancing palomino, keeping everything and everybody lined up to the best advantage. In his efficient manner he directs the show, placing the units of our city’s educational pa- rade in the position they can occupy most ef- fectively, sets the lines moving, signals the band, gets us off to a good start and keeps us going at a lively tempo.
