The dog-eared dummy was at last sent in near the deadline. The annual was entered in the S,I,P.A. and the Virginia High School League, This annual which was better than ever must come back with an award from some of these contests. The members attending the S.I.P.A, Conven- tion in Lexington had awonderful time, taking in everything, We know that we could not have accomplished A J' Y this had it not been for the guidance of our ever- faithful sponsor, Mr. Carter, whose cheerfulness at fir, and patience has kept us pulling through.
