The JOURNAL takes a bow! The editors, speaking for the Jour¬ nal Club, are very proud of the record of the club and of the JOURNAL for the year. Of course, from one stand¬ point , the high spot of the JOURNAL’S year has been the.a- ward given us by Columbia Uni¬ versity through the Columbia University interscolastic Press Association. We were rated third, with 714 points. Since the Association includes school papers all over the United States, we feel that we can take a bow on this. Not very far behind it, though, is the fact that the JOURNAL has paid its way. We admit that, two years ago, we were financed to the extent of a bottle of copying ink and some gelatin, with which to make a hectograph out of a tin tray Mr. Gillam had thrown out. But we paid back for them, am have stood on our own feet ever since. At the end of our first year, we had a net profit of eighty cents, with which to print a final edition of the paper for the Freshman Class. This year the JOURNAL ' S total income was slightly over two hundred and fifty dollars. We don’t mind a little applause for this, either. We have bought -and paid for! a mimeograph this gear. It is a hundred-and-twenty-five dol¬ lar model, factory rebuilt, for which we paid seventy-five dollars. This issue of the JOURNAL contains eight pages of half¬ tone pictures. The Journal Club paid for the taking of the photographs, the making of the plates, and their printing by the Gazette- Journal Printing Company.Ev¬ ery pupil in Botetourt High and Grammar Schools, in Ware Neck, Walter Reed, Naxera, Martins a, .a Signpine has his or her picture in these pages. We think this issue will be valued on that account, and we take a bow for it. ' Every pupil of Botetourt who has contributed to three cr more issues of the JOURNAL during the year has auto¬ matically become a member of .he Journal Club. Repeating -he policy cf last year, ....ach one of those will re¬ ceive a solid silver club pin as a reward. Those who were active this year after receiving the pin last year, will receive guards for their pins. We have had our troubles. Lots of them. For instance , the copy from Signpine and Naxera schools had not come in when we simply had to go to press. We’re sorry about that6 But after all, looking at the record, at this issue, and at the prospects for the future, we think the JOURNAL can take a bow. -Mary Jenkins -Margaret Lamberth -Minnie Robins - -Margaret Sibley.
