IOHN E. WELLWOOD, our Skipper , who for U many moons has been the chief of our tribe, we dedicate this Prospectus. In the early months of 1943, Mr. Wellwood underwent an operation which left him in a weakened condition for some time. Something seemed amiss in Central's teepee without the Chief, our able counsellor and kind friend. We looked forward to welcoming our Chief back in the fall. He is a part of Central High School. He belongs in our teepee. Mr. Wellwood did return for a short time + until our Medicine Man said Ugh must have long rest, Chief come back good as new. And that's exactly what happened. Our Chief went away for a long rest, part of it being spent in Florida. All the Braves and Princesses in the tribe are making ready to welcome him back next fall. There'll be a big Pow Wow and much happiness in our teepee when he returns.

Though once from heights its duty was to call Countless folk to educatiou's daily round, The old school bell now esconeed in verdant shade Calls but memories and has no need to sound. The rugged lrunlcs and rustling leaves, Of oalc trees towering in the sky Cast mottled patterns down, below, As fluffy clouds go sailing by.
