C1itO1'.l.fl f KKEHGYQ ROM the time of the Egyptians, when hieroglyphies on stone walls told the story of his achievements, to the present time of current events magazines, history has been man's greatest aid in his development. lt is through modern history that our opinions of the great nations are formed. Only through read- ing the past history of our country, and of other countries, arc we able to steer a successful course in the management of todayls problems. A large nation cf great tt rritorial extent, sueh as the United States, depends on the spread of eur- ient news to keep her people united in thought. The annual, which represents a high school student body, is a perfect parallel of the history of a great nation. The year book a school publishes is a record cf all its activities. From this record the different schools form their opinicns of cne another. Future students of a school find from its publication what has been done in that school in the past. By this example brought befor: tlum they may emulate l'ormer successes and avoid the mistakes of previous years. The pupils of a school at the present time find thc annual aupleasant reminder of the school year. By looking over it, they find what they have done or left undone, and may profit by it. This year's Tomahawk is, therefore, a history of the past school year. lt is our intention to emphasize this fact. In o11r snaps, jokes, notes on organi- zations and activities, ue have kept the idea of a history before us. It is our hope that other schools, future students, and contemporary students, may find this annual what we desire it to be-a well-arranged, graphic history of school life from August, 1926, to May, 1927. til: hitifttii 6 'U lst Qt ' 'lt Page Ten ,N
