THE GREATER CENTRAL By Frederick Shillito A wonderful span of four years of joys is about to be ended for the members of the graduating class of l923, and we are leaving this institution with genuine feelings of regret. How we will miss the games, the social functions. the hundred and one activities of Central. yes. and the classes. tool Everything connected in the least way with Central seems to be calling and beckoning us back and we hate to turn from our old life and face what the future will bring. Of course, our plans for coming months and years appear before our eyes colorful and promising but it seems that no other school or organization can ever mean so much to us or can endear itself in our affections any more than Central has in the short years we have been a part of it. A Greater Central looms in the immediate future and into the hands of you who remain here we leave unfinished work to be car- ried further. V Already the new buildings are under way and will soon be finished and in condition for occupancy. These buildings will give the students of the high school wonderful equipment with which to pursue any line of education that they may choose. The actual work, however, is entirely upi to the students. A fine school spirit is necessary for this work and students must enter upon athletics, dramatics, journalism or any other school activity in a spirit of doing something for their school, Everyone must pull together and there can be no sluggards. Building a Greater Central is the stern duty of the remaining undergraduates. C Next year and in years to come Central High School scholars will be given greater opportunities in all lines than ever before. The Greater Central will afford its students the use of every kind of modern school equipment that money can buy. The people of Kalamazoo who have raised thousands of dollars to give the local high school such equip- ment demand a return on the investment equal to or greater than the original amount. So it is up to you to make your high school career a success so that the people of Kala- mazoo will be satisfied that the money that they have invested in you has not been wasted. Remember that the public is watching you and is sure to criticise if it thinks its money is not being put to good use. Central can not continue on the up-grade unless the public is behind it. ln your hands, therefore, rests the future of Central. . 17
