The Senior class is very busy working on the
1916 annual SO far our chief difficulty has been
10 securing advertising matter from the business
men Of the city to tili the advertising section.
This annual is something the school takes pride
in for it is a monument Of school life and work.
but more than that it is achievement TO which
the parents Of the students and all those interest
] ed in maintaining the school. should feel that
i their cooperation ought to be given. Business
men like things conducted a business basis.
We are trying 20 publish our annual such a
basis but we cannot without the help Of the bust
! ness people In the first place we do not wish to
overtax the good viii of the advertisers who have
aided the high school annual 10 the past but we
do want the business men 70 realize the value of
our medium. We have met with replies like this:
The annual does good, the students don't
/ buy my products" f. that the way the business
men Of this city should treat the m0uthpiece of
such an important institution We recognize that
the annual il not the best advertising medium in
the world. but on the other hand do maintain
that orr space has great advertising value 60 the
I merchant who is permanently located in the city
and wants TO get the good will Of the students,
J their parents and friends. Moreover 70 insure
the success of our annual we must have your sup
port whether or not you think you need the good
will Of the student b03y. that they have little
need for your particular line Of goods IL you
take the above attitude 1t leads % believe that
you are using that ANTICIPATED Tnptio Well wei
yet your money anyway" That isn't what we
want we want you to help US make cur annual q
success by contributing 20 cur advertising de-
partment.
