fl ll lol lol ll IX H FQPEWQRD E ki n lol lol u 'IJ The first issue of the Duwamish, three years ago, was the work of the whole student body. lt was received favorably by all who read it and was considered a model High School annual. Last year, the Duwamish was to have been edited by the graduating class, but lack of numbers in the senior year made it necessary to have the other classes give assistance. By so doing, the second annual was made possible. It too was a success, in every respect. Copies were sent by students to friends in many different states, as well as five foreign countries, this alone being a proof of its worth. This edition is under the management of the Seniors. With a number of contributors in each class, working diligently, it is an evident fact that the '13 Duwamish will surpass all other annuals thus far gotten out by the High School. Hereafter the Duwamish will appear annually, published by the graduating class. As the school grows, we hope to see the Duwamish ranking first among the other High School annuals.
