WILL ISSUE FINE HIGH SCHOOL PUBLICATION.
Book Entitled “Chaos” and Edited by Scholars Will Be First School IpSgv- Annual in Rensselaer. ■> '• -'v - . Rensselaer high school is to issue thio year a publication entitled “Chaos’* which will be the first annual ever edited and published here in the interest of the high school and upon which the students have done all the work of editing and picture making. Many other towns and practically all cities in the state have issued similar publications aud it is interesting to know that Rensselaer is to have a work of this kind. The term “Chaos” was chosen after some discussion and seems a very good title if not considered from too literal a standpoint. Chaos means confusion and the book will exhibit some disorganization of the mass of contributed matter covering educational, athletic and artistic lines, but it will be a high-class book, and besides the literary features and the cartooning it will contain pictures of scholars, faculty, athletic teams, etc. The book will contain about 130 pages, part of which will be devoted t) advertising * and as it will be kept for many years the patrons of its columns will get value received for the cost. It is probable that 300 books will be published, at least 250, and many orders have been taken already within the school and from graduates of former years. Photographer Parker has been busy for several days takiilg photographs, individual, group and entire classes at a sitting. From these high-grade halftones are to be made. The paper used in the book will be a superior quality and the books will sell for $1 each. The staff that has the publication in hand is: Cope Hanley, business manager; James Ellis, editor-in-chief; Elton Clark, literary editor; Wilma Peyton, calendar editor; Virgil Robinson, athletic editor; Maurine Tuteur, society editor. The mechanical work will be done by The Republican and it is expected to make the publication the most interesting and the best printed book ever issued in this City.
