- -IN - An Appreciation The Faculty and Student body of St. Thomas High School appreciate deeply all the people who have helped to make the Year Book of 1927 a success. The 4- A f' 4' 50 - 96 TX 5 Qy 4- 1 i , f 4 6 Staff could not haxe produced a credit- able book if it had not been for the pat- ronage ofthe business men of Rock- ford. The friends of the High School may in turn show their appreciation of these generous contributors by patron- izing them and thanking them for the business given to our Annual this year. Not only are we grateful to the Adver- tisers but to the Rockford Tllustrating Company, the Clark Printing Company, the U. S. Art Binder Company, the Her- zog Studio, and particularly to Mr. Fred McCleneghan of the Rockford Illustrat- ing Company and to Mr. Frank Nolan of the Clark Printing Company. The Thomist takes this opportunity also to thank the innumerable friends and Benefactors of the High School for their generous contributions throughout the year. To the members of the Parent Asso- ciation who have worked faithfully in the Cafeteria and who have otherwise given generous support to the school, we are especially indebted. to l N 46' qffyib X . - , 'f Q ' 2-we A
