through the looking glass . . . just as a looking glass reflects the true image of the viewer, so our 1958 MANITOU RIPPLES reflects the past school year with its happy memories, glorious triumphs, and tearful dis- appointments. As we look back, we see carefree and precious moments, studies and responsibilities, lasting friendships, and valuable experiences. These are the things we have tried to capture forever within the pages of our yearbook. This is RHS 1958 through the looking glass.
