A small group of students, consisting of the English IV class and three Juniors, com- prised the 1938 Tomahawk staff. They feel the work they have done is but a minor contribution to the good of the school. It is only through the cooperation of faculty, student body, and community that this yearbook is possible. Another function of the Senior English class is the publishing of the Cats, Meow in cooperation with the Ferndale Enterprise, which furnished several columns of free space weekly. The Cats' Meow staff was changed about every six weeks so students could gain experience in all phases of journalism. Eight Club meetings each month at the respective advisors' rooms gave students a chance to participate with groups in which they were most interested. The Service Club sponsored an Old Clothes Day, sent greetings to ill members of the student body and ushered at programs. The Foreign Exchange Club held a Valentine Party and Christmas Party at the high school and started correspondence with foreign countries. The Stamp Club showed much interest in the special Ferndale cachet issued Air Mail week. Recreational Club initiated mixed sports. Photography Club developed several hun- dred pictures, some of which are shown in this book. Other clubs are discussed on pages devoted to their fields.
