Cecil Schilling During the last-school year the co-operation of the teachers in the best interests of the Caerulea has been a constant source of gratification to -the management of the paper. Wfe are especially in- debted to Miss Holton, who has 'aided so loyally the progress of the paper. She has marshalled her brigade of art students and provided attractive cover designs. In this way she has materially enhanced the value of-the HC3C1'11lC8.H - V However, her work has not been confined to the paper alone for she has taken an active interest in all school movements. It it to Miss Holton that Long Beach High owes the possession of an oches- tra and mandolin-guitar club 'which have given so good an ac- count of themselves under her leadership that it is unnecessary to enlarge on their merits here. Miss Holton was the prime mover in the arrangement of the High School Hoat which took the first prize in the lelarbor-Day pa- rade, and for that deserves much praise. In consideration of these and other valuable service we desire to extend to Miss Holton the sincere thanks and best wishes of Long Beach High. Giving to a change in the management of the Caerulea, and to the resulting confusion of such a move. the publication of the paper has been suspended for a short time. l The staff, immediately after the change, held a meeting and de- cided that there should be but one more issue, the .-Xnnualf' which we now take pleasure in placing before you. NVe hope that our exchanges will forgive our shortcomings when they take into consid- eration that we have endeavored to make this issue atone for the loss of two others. It is with pleasure that we extend to everyone our heartiest wishes forthe 'enjoyment of a good, happy vacation. 25

'- Ling- I M - -- ' As the school year of 1907 draws to a close we look back over the year with the feeling of something attempted,-something done. This year for the first time in the history of the school a Student Body has been organized to manage and control student affairs. By the co-operation of students and faculty this organization has pros- pered. Wfe sincerely hope that the Student Body will prosper in the future as they have already so far. The attitude of the people toward school activities, especially of the business men of Long Beach, is a source ofgreat pleasure to us. lMere it not for the business men who support us in various ways, Long Beach High could not have so good a school paper, nor could so much interest be taken in the school athletics if it were not for the support of loyal business men. The election of Eugene Tincher, '08, as President of the Council of the Debating League of Southern California brings glory to our school and again reminds us of his great work on the Polytechnic and Pomona debate teams. The Merchants' 81 Manufacturers' Protective association, have also earned the bestwishes of L. B. H. S., by their generous contri- bution of forty dollars toward the publication of this issue of the Caerulea. . ' Wfe desire to express, on behalf of L. B. H. S., the sincere appreciation of the attitude of the firm of Dyas Sz Cline, who have given a fine pennant to our Champion Girls' Basket ball team. Long Beach High feels that great credit is due Miss Knowles for the success of debating during the past year. The final score of our debates by no means indicates the great benefit each individual debater has derived from the year's work. The efforts put forth by Miss Knowles have not been in the attitude of a dictator, but rather as a director giving aid to the debaters that they might be thoroughly acquainted with the subject under discussion. We have always en-y tered the final contests feeling that our speeches were wholly our own, yet remembering with appreciation the thoughtful and capable assistance of Miss Knowles. Perhaps the greatest impetus given to debating during the past year has been the organization by Miss Knowles of the two debating classes. The great value of her work in this line in developing ma- terial for next year's contests cannot be overestimated and we are glad that the supervision of the work will be in her hands next year. EUGENE E. TINCHER. A woRD GF THANKS. ' The orchestra wish to thank their director, Miss Holton, for her earnest and patient work with us during the past term. We re- gret very much that she will not be with us for another term's work. lVe also wish to thank the student body at large for the hearty support given us, and hope that our musical enthusiasm may be greater, and that we may be a more representative organization in the year before us. lVe can all say that our work has been a source of great pleasure and that orchestra practice was the main event of each week.
