4 THE ORACLE EDITORIAL. N the spring of 1900 the students of Watkins High School, headed by Frederick Johnson, edited a school book called Tiik Oracle. This was the first book of its kind ever published in the school, and much hard work for both brain and hand were expended in bringing it to a successful issue. Hut by skillful management the publication was made so great a success that the next year. 1901. the High School Congress decided to publish a second edition. This was done and in some respects, especially as a mirth provoker, this edition was thought superior to that of the preceding year. Hut so much trouble was experienced in raising the money to pay for this last work, that at first it was thought that no ORACLE would be published in 1902. At last the senior class took the matter in hand, and, with the financial support of the Hoard of Education, we see no reason why this year’s edition should not be a great success. We have the advantage of experience which the former editors have not had. We have the copies of two years before us and we can copy the better parts and leave out the poorer. Our minds are not worried over financial affairs as they were last year, and therefore we can give our entire attention to our writings. We have the entire school back of us, and as the readers peruse these lines they must remember that whatever success may attend our publication, it is due not to the senior class, but to the Faculty and students, and our financial backers, the Honorable Members of the Board of Education.
