be 42:10 A E tional lllilllf are many reasons why the Class of IOZ7 should feel honored to be the Centennial Class. lt is a deep inspiration to us that Mr. liletcher, 'our superintendent, is at the head of this Centennial Celebration, and therefore we have tried to make this, our annual, worthy of such an honor to our school. ln this we have received the hearty co-operation of many of our townspeople. As a result of this co-operation and interest we find ourselves more aware of our unity with the life of this city. This sense of relationship sometimes seems partly lost and we need to strengthen the bonds, as this Centennial year is doing. We are now work- ing as one, toward the successful accomplishment of a hundred years' work, and we see now how our school and city have worked and must work together for the strength of a unified accomplishment. We are indebted to this Centennial for the sake of the past, the present and the future. Looking back to the schools of a hundred years we can say: f'You, of ISZT, were small and queer and different, but you gave us the American faith in education, which has held one hundred years and more and which makes us glad in IQZT to have the right to say that we have worked through our school years to reach our commencement in this Centennial year. We are glad to believe that far in jamestown's future some larger and more wonderful class, looking back to IOZ7 may say: You were small and queer and different, but you helped to give to us the American faith in education which has held two hundred years. 'lihe members of the Staff wish to express their most sincere thanks and grati- tude to the teachers in j. ll. S. who have helped to make the Senior Annual a success. Most especially do they wish to thank Miss Bargar, Miss Crittenden, Miss Green. Miss Callery, Miss Nelson, Miss Dean, Miss Wood, Miss Dickson. and Miss Schermerhorn for the time and help they have very generously given us
