Smile — If Makes People Wonder Whai You've Been Up To. Smile. It's a word that we’ve been familiar with since we were old enough to understand portions of our English language. We've been encouraged to put on our best smiles when company dropped in for visits, or in front of a black box called a camera. Throughout our lives, the camera has played an important role in determining how our expressions and actions are interpreted by ourselves and others. We've all clowned and mugged for the camera, but the most revealing pictures have been taken when the camera's presence was not known to the subject.

 The Long Hours Spent Working Toward Perfection All of our lives, people have told us to work hard and we will be rewarded in the end. Apparently Cook High students live by that idea, whether it is on the playing field or in the classroom. The important thing is that we try to make good use of our many talents and are willing to do the best we can to uphold Cook High's name. Although we may not be STATE CHAMPS or all members of WHO'S WHO, we can be satisfied in knowing that we did our best, and that's all anyone can ask of us. 7
