ANNUAL NUMBER
Make Record With the Big
Number this Year.

The manager and staff of The Cyno-
sure, the student paper at the high
school, are making plans for by far
the largest n most important annual
number ever gotten out. 1t will con-
tain $50 pages or more, fifty Of them
devoted to half-tones and cartoons.
Besides the usual excellent collection
of stories, jokes and editorials it will
contain pictures of the different classes
athletic teams, literary societies, the
faculty, etc. The individual pictures
of the members of the senior class, a
feature of every annual, will be better
than ever. ;.
However, the main feature of the
annual will be an alumni directory.
The name, class, college, present oc-
cupation, etc., etc. of every graduate
since 1885 will be recorded. The pic
lures Of a few prominent alumni and
some of the old teachers will also APP
pear.
The issue will surpass anything ever
attempted by the local school and will
require hard, tedious work on the part
Of its talented editor-in-chief, Miss
Irene Leimbacher, together with the
other members of the staff.
Alumni desiring copies of the an
nual should make arrangements with
the student business manager at an
early date.

ACCORDING TO AGES OF THOSE
PRESENT IN THE AUDIENCE
"As MANY PENNIES AS AGE.

Tonight will be the birthday serv-
ice' at the Billy Sunday meetings at

be taken will be according to the ages
Of those present in the audience and
everyone is requested to put in the
plate as many pennies as they are old.
This is a novel scheme of the finance
committee of the William A. Sunday
association and it has been suggested
that those who are backward about
telling their ages in this ann may
easily sidestep such a leading question
by putting in a dollar into the plate as
it passes them. This will relieve any
embarrassment that any If uncertain"
age may feel and no further questions
will be asked.
