WILLIAM FLEMING HIGH SCHOOL ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA How Do We Make An Annual? It is a long and tedious process, which starts out by a few courageous and industrious people making up their minds to have an annual. Rest assured that this is no easy task, for as is always the case, these few people are the ones who have hundreds of other things to do in school. After this decision is made, we have the job of raising money to pay for an annual. This we do, to a great extent, by soliciting advertisements. Most any of you who have ever begged for anything, and most of you have, know what a job this is. 'IfVe usually begin this work in October and finish in February. When we've raised all the money that we can, and have a fair idea of how much we can pay for an annual, then We decide what we can put into it, and immediately set to work on it. There are many questions that arise, such as dedi- cation, poems, representation and where we are going to put what in our year book. After all contributions and reports have been collected, typed, and put in the annual dummy, we then have to read over all of this, read and reread, in order to find all mistakes, before sending it to the printer. No, the work is not nearly complete yet. When the annual comes from the printer, we immediately take several copies out to our advertisers and collect for the ads. At school, during this time, we are placing the subscription blanks which have been previously turned in, inside the books, in order that we may present to our subscribers THE COLONEL, to which they have so generously subscribed. A bit of Fleming Jpirit, fl glimpre of Fleming Iliff, fl book of Fleming memorier. All of these have been our aim in compiling material for this issue of THE COLONEL. It is our sincere hope that as you pause somewhere and sometime in later life to review these pages, that you may derive pleasures untold from the memories which they recall, and that from this review you may gain inspiration to take a new hold on whatever task is yours. -True 1938 COLONEL STAFF -23 15 E+
