keep up the Askov spirit. Just
last Sunday we drove out to the
mountains and enjoyed a hike up
a canyon to a very pretty water

We had a camp fire and made
real coffee a la Askov. Coming
back we sang "Drosslen Slog."

Journalism in the high school
maintains very complete print

printing to supplement the work

Intertype machines (typesetters)
a cylinder press, self feeder and
two job presses with type and
supplementary equipment to go
with it all. The American will
surely appreciate what layout
of that sort means for school.

nothing here that can compare
with the fine fellowship | ex-

trust that before long we may
