DFGDUFQHEWGDHRHD O enable you to live again the activities of the past year and the dreams and ae- eomplishments of your high school days is the aim of this IJOIIGIQR of 1929. It is also our desire to set forth a brief account of the advance of the new ven- ture that has commanded the serious thought of the nations as well as the attention of our own city. In so doing we hope to maintain an interest which will foster the development of aviation in Fort Dodge.

HDUEDDUIGDSXUVUIGDN O the Spirit of the Wingetl Victory of Samothrace-the Spirit of Progress, Symbol of the iclenls of Courage and of far-sighted Vision which has prompted man to the conquest and mastery of the air, to this intangible Spirit upon which, transformed into Purpose and Accomplishment, depends the actual Contribution of our own High School, we, the Class of 1929 do respectfully dedicate this, the eighteenth volume of THE IJODGIAQR.

UDURUEUFAXGEUE LIGHT-the idle dream, perhaps the oldest and great- est ambition in the history of mankind has at last been real- ized and the wildest dreams have been turned to reality. The flight of the winged horse, Pegasus, the imagined flights of Daedalus and Icarus on their wings of feathers and wax, and of Darius Green with his flying machine have all been surpassed with deeds far more strange than their fiction. Today man rides at will on wing- ed steeds which are tireless in their flight, he floats lazily through the air as do the clouds and smoke, he outflies the swift- est bird, and when accident be- falls him he drifts softly to earth on his parachute wings as quietly as does the settling hawk.
