It is -j—p-f also the oneness in spirit and purpose created — p by our working and playing and laughing side by side. r ( i _________________' ( V On these pages we have endeavored to cap- ture and preserve for you something of both Y ' the tangible and intangible characteristics of the Cook High we all love. THE STAFF VS Dedication For many years of unwavering faithful- ness; for his understanding and sympathy when a schedule needs changing or when that algebra just couldn't be done on time; for the quiet efficiency that's always there, assuring and guiding throughout the very heart of our school; and for helping to in- still in us his high standards and ideals- for all these things we shall always be in- debted to him. As a small tribute, expressing our appre- ciation of his faithfulness and loyalty, we, the Staff, do dedicate this 1956 edition of the Acorn to the Assistant Principal of Cook High School, Mr. Herschel A Sessions.
