This collection highlights a selection of Milwaukee-Downer student yearbooks. The title, Cumtux, was taken from the Chinuk Wawa (otherwise known as the Chinook Jargon), which means “Do you understand?” The yearbook was first published in 1898 with the intention of being an annual. The collection spans from 1898-1962.
