Dedication

To Mr. J. Dale Welsch, Superintendent of Elkader High School, we do hereby dedicate this annual in recognition of his unselfish service to our class, enabling us to succeed in our many undertakings during the three short years he has been with us.

Many will be the kind thoughts which we, the class of Nineteen Hundred and Thirty, will cherish as we remember the good he has done in helping us to advance thus far along the difficult road of life.

pg 12

We, the Class of 1930, wish to express our sincere thanks to Mr. Wistrick for the splendid service he has given, not only to our class, but also to the entire school. If our class has been a success, no doubt he has contributed his share with the cheerful smiles with which he has confronted us for the 12 years we spent with him. When we entered the primary department 12 years ago, "Fritz" met us with a smile. When we left old E.H.S. this year the same old "Fritz" with the same old smile bade us farewell. Keep on smiling "Fritz"! It's worth millions to a bunch of hard-working students like we were. Lots o'luck to our dear old Janitor!
