East High School - Exodus Yearbook (Cleveland, OH)

BEFORE passing judgment on this book, the editors request that you consider carefully the points which are to influence your verdict. A school annual is valuable, not for what it is, but for what it represents. The fidelity of the representation is the quality on which the book must stand or fall. In preparing this annual, we have tried to emphasize the pleasant events of the past year, and to lose the other kind in oblivion. For there are un- pleasant features in school life, even though none of us have discovered them. This book, then, should call to your mind what you want recalled, and should ignore that part of your school existence which you, yourself, wish to ignore. This Annual should embody the part of 1909 that will be dear to you in later years, when you can no longer run through the old halls, or step on the tender grass. East High School Annuals have a character all their own, and you would not want it changed. Each year the editors try rather to improve on the books that have gone before, than to make each book radically different. This year we have tried to keep up to the high standard established in former years, and yet to make the book as new and original as possible. We have worked faithfully to justify the trust which you have put in us, and hope that you will not be disappointed with our work. Our connection with the Annual is now ended. It belongs to you, and to the whole school. The Editors.
