L PUFFS AND PATCHES PUFFS AND PATCHES Publishing an annual means many hours of work and worry, a breath ' less watching of its growth, and great satisfaction after it is finished. From sponsors, to editor, to business manager, it is “our annual.” We know the suspense of waiting for the staff to be chosen—the days of agonizing over the cover, the dedication, the ads, the subscriptions—the long weeks of arranging it. We know the great excitement when the dummy comes back from the engraver and even more when the annual comes back from the publisher. We experience the trials of getting the boys to wear coats and ties for their pictures and getting the girls all prettied up. Each year the staff is selected by its sponsors from the outstanding pupils in school. From these students an editordn-chief, an assistant editor and a business manager are then selected. The club is composed of two staffs. The editorial staff, under the super ' vision of Miss Dollins, plans and constructs the original dummy from which the finished work is planned. The business staff, under the supervision of Miss Mahaney, finances the book. Both, together, attempt to preserve the high lights of the school year for those who leave us. 30
