jnmzwnlzd Early man gave us the beginning. His curiosity, reasoning and inventiveness created the first wheel. Maybe this wheel was just a log used for rollers or a circular object for rough carts but a wheel was a beginning. Progress, even from the time of those ideas, is often measured by the wheel they created. From a Chinese treadmill to a Coulee Dam Dynamo spans a chain of uncountable links: each one a new thought, a new plan, and each one as important as the first. Without these, the busses and cars that brought us to school would not exist. Our little brothers and sisters would have few of the toys they play with. There would be no clocks to remind us when to get up in the morning, when to go to bed at night, when it is time for lunch Cwe really don't need clocks to tell us thisl, and when to go to the next class. Indeed. we would probably still be dragging each other around by the hair. This is a book of memories . . . Kimtah. Years from now we will look back and remember our life here at school, which we can compare to a giant wheel. Its hub is our student government and faculty, and its spokes are all our activities, clubs, even a little actual school work in some cases. The rim of our wheel, the part on which it actually rests, is represented by the student body, we ourselves, who are the really important part. Our wheel rolls down a road, a road of high school.
