The wind “Holissa’’ is the Choaaw ImJi:in expression for book. It was adopted as a name for rhe Annua) when the first volume was published by the class of toil. In preparing the present number we have tried to make it a good hook, faithfully reflecting the best activities of the school from a high and impersonal standpoint. It is a pleasure to express our appreciation to those who have helped us in various ways. First of all, to the citizens of the Stare, who have founded and maintained the school, and especially to the good people of Durant, whose interest anti encourage' merit have cheered us over many hard places throughout our entire course, and who have helped to make this hook possible. To Mr. A. YV. Gilliland , our class adviser, whose help ha been constant and generous, tn Miss Myra Williams, our class sponsor, whose influence has been a beautiful inspiration toward good work, tn Jr. M. M. Wickham who kindly has aided with the cartoon work for the Annual, and to other members of the faculty who have assisted financially or otherwise, we extend our sincere gratitude. Thanks are due, also, ti those members of the student and alumni organizations who have given us reports and write-ups requiring time and energy. Each new Annual is a link between the past and the future. We of the Class of 191 hope that our ‘ HolUsrT will bring happy reminiscences to the graduates and other students who have gone out into the world, and to the good teachers who have left us for ocher fields of usefulness. To the classes following us may it be an inspira- tion toward helping to make the greater history of our Normal, which, we trust, as the years go on will be written not merely on leaves of paper, hut on the lives of its students as they go forth from its doors bearing their rightful heritage of happy memories, broad scholarship, thorough training, high ideals, and undimined faith. 6
