The paper does much more than furnish the reader with school news. It gives those of us working on the paper a sense of responsibility and develops their writing abili¬ ty. Working on the Sphinx impresses upon our minds the need for co-operation and gives us some ide as to what is rec|uired of a newspaper staff. And now we would like to take this opportunity to thank our sponsor, Mrs. Iva Chenoweth, without whose help, patience, and capability, the Sphinx just wouldn’t be.
