THE BELOIT HIGH SCHOOL. American education, planted in the common school, has its elementary class in the modern high school. Of late the impor- tance of a good high school training is beginning to be realized by the American people as a whole. Not even a country school system is now considered complete without a good accredited high school in it. The object of a high school is virtually a pre- paratory object, and it may be preparatory in a number of ways: Firstly, if the student does not intend to get higher education, he is not, in this advanced age, prepared to decide what his vocation may be until he has had a high school training. Secondly, with a common school education only a man is not prepared suiii- ciently to meet the competition which he needs must come in con- tact with, since the rising generation does not stop with the grades Thirdly, the world demands men with well developed minds to do her work. Fourthly, a university training cannot be had without the former preparation offered by the high school. In planning the work ofthe Beloit High School each of these four ends is kept in view. Since the Beloit High School was founded, in 1881, it 'has gradually become noted as a high school can. In any line of work you may iind graduates of the Beloit High School, and it will be well to note that they all have made or are making good names for themselves as a result oi their high school training. Her ath- letes have made national records, her musicians have made note- worthy 1'eputations. She has reason to be proud of her alumni, and there is not one member of her alumni who does not honor the Beloit High School. The motto of the Beloit High School is 'f1n1IIiSecUnd11s. Her ambition is to send out men and women who will be able to compete with graduates from any other high school.
