SO IN CONCLUSION ... we bring our narrative to a close. It is with a great deal 1 regret that we do this. As we look back over these pages we are reminded of the fun—as well as the work —we had in putting them together. Too, we are reminded, rather poignantly, by these pages depicting the story of the year’s achievement, that this little book repre- sents, perhaps, our last cooperative effort in a journalistic and h;stor cal venture. 1 hat makes us sad, for we truly have enjoyed the serious exchange of ideas as well as the banter and sparkling repartee of those who have combined to produce this annual. True, we have had our points and periods of disappointment and d’sagreement, but, as this publication must indicate, those individual differences have been amicably ironed out and the book is the better and the experience the richer because of those necessary compromises. Outside of the staff there have been many people who have devoted much of their time to helping us, and to those loyal people and to our subscribers and adver- tisers and all others who helped make our venture successful, we want to express our warmest appreciation. We who have had to do with the production recognize the imperfection of this volume, but sincerely hope that its reading will be as enjoyable to you as its making has been to us. In this book we have written about the year at high school, illustrated with pic- tures and snapshots. The Seniors have told us about their four years at S.H.S. Activ- ptigr ticentjf-six

Since we girls played basketball mostly for the enjoyment of it, we didn’t make much of a sensation. Nevertheless, we showed good competition to our opposing teams. But next year, with more practice—something we didn't have—the team will really shine. Caroline B. and Maxine B. forwards; Evelyn Totzke and Kay Krajacic—guards, will be missed in 1940-41 as they will graduate this year. Seated: Evelyn Totzke. Caroline Bodjack, Norma Siewert, Maxine Bujack. Kay Krajacic Standing: Dora Machan. Frances Wickwire. Mrs. Smith. Coach. Viola Mischke, Doris Machan At the close of the season, we girls were given a chop sucy dinner by our coach, Mrs. Smith. We held practice once a week. The grade girls played with us and then we or- ganized teams and held regular games. We even played games with the Alumni and usually won. We girls were sorry to see the close of the basketball season as we all had had so much fun. pmjv twenty-five

ities have been discussed, plays have been reviewed, teams have been pictured, Band and Orchestra, the tamed faculty play, and so on right through the book. It has been fun and regrets are felt, but all things end and we students will always remem- ber—Life is simply a matter of concentration; you are what you set out to be. The things you read are the things you become tomorrow. You are a composite of the things you say, the books you read, the thoughts you think, the company you keep, and the things you desire to become. page twenty-seren
