However, I am sure it is a very rewarding labor and everyone associated with the interesting publication is to be highly commended. You have every reason to be proud of, not only the accomplishments of your school or- ganization, but the friendly personalities found in your membership as reflected in this year- book. The warmhearted feeling and fine professional spirit demonstrated by teachers and stu- dents in your school is an inspiration to all of us. I realize, too, that this remarkable achievement cannot be accomplished without cooperation and leadership ability. It is with great satisfaction that I am able to speak of you as my friends,” and with deep sincerity, wish you continued success in your every endeavor.
