DEDICA TION In spite of, or perhaps because of, our democracy. there is in our smaller American cities very frequently one man round whom the social life of the commun- ity centersg one who has pre-eminently the conlidence and esteem of his fellow oitigens, won not by birth or position but by a life of integrity and kindness If asked the name of the man who occupies this proud place in the hearts of 'the people of Chippewa Falls, no resident of our city would hesitate for an instant. We have one among us whom we all delight to honor. His name is associated with the work of the pioneer, the conquering of the forest, the development of our institutions of business, commerce and education. The old look upon him with pride as a leader but no less as a comrade and friend. Those of us who are younger look up to him as a benefactor and as an example of true American manhood. His name is linked in our minds with the joys of childhood, the happiest hours of our youth. We have learned to know nature bet- ter, to appreciate and love God's great out-of-doors be- cause of his gift to the city of the beautiful park of which we are all so proud. It is to this friend and benefactor, MR. VX-ILLIAM IRVINE, that we respectfully dedicate this volume of our High School Annual as a tribute of our grateful appreciation of his interest in the young people of our city, and as an expression of our affection and esteem.
