The l9I6 Annual ends a year which has been the best hnancially, and also we believe, in the quality of work produced. that the paper has ever had. The Commencement number is supposed to present not only a summary of what the Senior Class has done, but also a general review of the work and accomplishments of all the classes and organizations. With this in View the Staff has tried to give the School an Annual of which we can all be proud. Since the opening of school in September of last year, seven regular issues of the Totem have left the press and been received by the student body. At the beginning of the school year the prospects were rather discouraging. We had a very small subscription list, and con- tributions were few and far between. However, interest and enthusiasm were aroused by the mock trial to such an extent that the number of subscribers was increased, and we had no further lack of contributed matter. The next month, November, the Staff put out the largest Totem ever published: that of 52 pages, featuring football. It contained the customary amount of literary material and school news besides pictures and discussions of football action and mem- bers of the teams. This number aroused considerable comment in other schools through their exchange, all of which was quite complimentary. The December, or Christmas, issue, was full of the Yuletide Spirit in both drawings and stories. It ran 40 pages. ln accordance with a custom established some time ago, the February issue was devoted to the best Art and Literary work that the students could produce. A spirited contest brought out large numbers of stories, posters and drawings. The following received prizes: For the best story, Judith Murphy, poem, Mabel Conleyg Art Design, Lucille Douglas. Besides this, Seattle authors and artists of national reputation were featured by summarys of their lives and Work with represen- tative extracts from poems, drawings, etc. This issue was one of 48 pages. Debate and basketball was the title of the March issue which contained 40 pages with several pages of cuts and halftones. April saw the end of the Dramatic season here at Lincoln, so this number contained a review of the plays and meetings of the Dramatic Club. All these Totems were as large and larger than those of any previous year, and this was made possible through the support of the students. The seventh and last regular issue was the junior number, issued under the direction of a special Junior Staff, headed by lra Curry. This excellent 36-page number gives promise that the Totem of year 191 6-l 91 7 will be kept up to the high standard set by this year's staff. 'St'YGYltt't'l1 TUTFIM
