MR. E. M. LEAMON, Assistant Superintendent To anyone seeking a good education, learning for the sake of learning, joy in the discovery of something new, and the ability to separate the important from the unimportant are goals to be reached. These goals are attained only by someone who applies his greatest effort and ability to whatever he wishes to attain, losing sight never of the qualities of tolerance and regard for the rights of others.” MR. MACY PRUITT, Administrative Assistant in charge of Junior and Senior High School Curriculum. Two thousand years ago the Great Teacher taught a parable about the use of talents. He said that unused talents decrease, while used talents increase. The lesson is as timely today as when it was given. The most tragic waste in our nation results from ' underperforming.’ We owe our best to our school, our parents, and, most of all, to ourselves.” MR. C. R. WRIGHT, Administrative Assistant in charge of Vocational Education. We in vocational education find ourselves confronted with a chang- ing public image which demands study and change in concepts of all educational needs.” In our present society an individual finds it necessary to become educated and develop a marketable skill that will be of use in pro- curing gainful employment.”
