Irvin D. Sacks An Editorial Heretofore it has been our opinion that the complaining of the editor of a high school annual is but a habit. However, since passing through the terrors of putting out the 1925 “Cosmos,” we wish to extend to all editors of the “Cosmos” our sincerest sympathy—it is a JOB and one without reward save the ' criticism of the unrelenting student body. To secure the interest and cooperation of the students of Central seemed very, very difficult. There were times even when fair gods and goddesses had to be implored to have their pictures made. But now that the book has gone to press, we wish to forget the difficulties and remember only that we want all Centralites to like our book. To several persons not on the Staff we are greatly indebted for assist¬ ance in our undertaking. Of course, Mr. Moyes was forever ready to help us. And to Miss Pat¬ terson, Miss Hagen, and Miss Staggs goes the honor of being the best faculty advisors in the world. They were always willing to give of their valuable ideas and of their valuable assistance. They were the easiest persons imaginable to get along with, and the Staff found great pleasure in being associated with them. To Miss Duvernoy we owe thanks for the use of her list of graduates ; to Mrs. McBlain of the Wheat Studio; we owe gratitude for her invaluable assistance in finding pictures for all the graduates on Miss Duvernoy’s list. To Herbert Caldwell and Tate Simpson and to Mr. Sherman belongs much credit for their help in mounting the Art lay-outs. Without Irvin Sacks and. Alton Nance our advertising material would have been much less. These boys were untiring in their efforts, and cannot be commended too highly for their work. And without Mrs. Burk and her assistants our typing would not have existed. Even this very editorial would never have reached you. There are two others to whom we wish to express our appreciation. They are everybody’s friends, Mrs. McDougall and Miss Burns. They have done us more favors than almost anybody else. Not one request of the Staff was ever refused by either of them. They were always chasing us for the telephone. How we do appreciate their help. We’ll refrain from mentioning those who always said “Manana” when asked about material due today. Well, here’s your year book, Central, we’ve done our best—and we chal¬ lenge next year’s Staff to do better. THE STAFF.
