To the high senool xacuity and school board for the use of the building and class rooms in which to conduct the Leadership school, was appreciated not only by the specialists who gave the instructions but by all leaders and patrons who attended any of the functions of the Leadership school. All of the high school teachers gave their support, and special mention is given at this time for the assistance given by Principal Pixton, Mr. Lundell, Mr. Prows, Mrs. Gene Merkley, Mr. Mor-le- y. Miss iNoall, Miss Smart and Miss Cannon. The cooperation of the townspeople who threw open their homes to visitors, of the high school student body, the farm bureau, Uintah Club, churches, business houses and the press was wonderful. All of the specialists from the Agricultural college who attended this school stated that they han never worked with such an earnest group of leaders and students, who seemed to sense their responsibilities and have such keen interest in serving their constituency as was manifest in the group who attended the - school.
