FOREWORD Stray Leaver V This issue of Stray Leaves could be entitled Stray Leaves, Volume Number 25, for this is the twenty-fifth time Stray Leaves has been published. The first issue of Stray Leaves was published in 1904. Due to a great deficit in the financial success of the annual and also due to the fact that the classes of the following years were small, the publication was discontinued for two years. The annual was published again in 1907. Until 1926 Stray Leaves was published by the Senior class. In 1926 an amendment to the Student Body constitution providing for the publication of the annual by the Student Body was made. ' The first editor of Stray Leaves was Miss Clara Carson, who is at present a member of the faculty of the Bell Hill school. She has the honor of having given the name, Stray Leaves, to the high school annual. The first annual was rather small, having only sixteen pages. There were only two cuts-one of the class as a group, and the other a small dpicture of Columbus school. Since the first publication, the annual has stea ily in- creased in size until we now have more than one hundred pages and thirty cuts. The covers on the annuals also have improved. This year, as you have probably noticed, the cover is fabrikoid which is much more lasting. We hope that Stray Leaves will continue to have this kind of cover. For the last four years the staff has chosen a theme and tried to carry that theme throughout the book. This year we selected gates for our theme. We chose this theme for two reasons: first, because the motto of Grass Valley is The Gateway to the Sierras g and second, because high school is really a gateway of life. The art classes and also the members of the Student Body who contributed material for the book have attempted to carry out this theme. We, the staff, hope that this issue of Stray Leaves will be a complete record of the activities and progress of the Grass Valley High School for the year 1929-1930. ' , To the business .meniand also to the people of the community who have so greatly helped to make this book a success, the Student Body wishes to extend its thanks, and hopes that the reader will be greatly pleased with this number of Stray Leaves.
