Book excerpt: Excerpt from Snips and Cuts, 1909 E, 'the students of the Charlotte High School, after considering deeply and hesitating much, determined in February to publish an Annual. This being our first attempt we necessarily secured some suggestions from outside. But we feel that we have done our best, and if it does not measure up to your ideal of an Annual, please remember that we are just beginning. If you knock, kindly use rubber hammers.
