Wrangell High School
 Publishes an Annual

The "Wrangler,' the first an- nual published by the Wrangell High School, made its appearance last week and has excited consid- erable favorable comment. To put out a publication of this sort requires time, effort and skill for the literary requirements, and equipment for the mechanical processes necessary to make the production an attractive whole. The publication is one in which the school can take pardonable pride. The business men of Wrangell generously helped f. nance it by taking advertising space Tn its columns and the citi- zens generally can show their appreciation by purchasing copies for themselves and friends. A publication of this kind makes good advertising for the school and the town.
 The "Wrangler' contains some good cuts, interesting articles about the community and the his- tory of the town, accounts of school activities and clever school jokes and fun. It is printed on an excellent grade of paper. The staff was made up of pupils of the High School with Miss Helen Hofstad as Editor-in-Chief and Marion Myers as Business Mana ger.
