Due to the combined efforts of Mr. A. J. Brendel and Mr. Howard Pepper, we have had the opportunity to be formed as intelligent and upright citi- zens. What a debt is ours! May we thank them for their tireless and consis- tent effort in our behalf. As we look at the new elementary schools, we realize the genuine effort and long hours of hard work which are necessary for such an elaborate under- taking that could only be accomplished by our very competent school board consisting of Mr. Ezra Perry, Mr. Waldo McNaught, Mr. Paul McGrath (Presi- dent), Mr. Lew James, seated, and Mr. Willard Mechem (not pictured).
