Some say that it is too new to have a history, but they are wrong. In barely more than a century the West has developed from the haunts of the ln- dians to the home of the white man. The drama and adventure that graces the lines of the ancient and European history panels is no more glamorous and thrilling than the old pioneer's chroni- cle. There are written the trials, the hardships, the Indian raids. the deaths, the discovery, the loss, and all that ac- companied the traveler on his way from the East to the vast unsettled expanses. This is the history of the West. Guidance lllumines Path Today, like the searching pioneers. we sometimes are in need of those who can lead us on our way. When the road ahead is just a little hazy or the moun- tains appear a bit stormy: a guide can show the way and make each supposedly insuperable task seem trivial and insig- nificant. Such is the work of the Guidance department. Their task is to aid. This they have done and will con- tine to do as long as help is needed. Page Sr-rcnleen wig 'Q . if.

Readinf 'Ritin', and 'Rithmetic-the attainment of these three was the height of all education. The first two are definitely a part of English. Many years have elapsed since then, and the once barren prairies have become fertile, the once tiny townships have burst forth into rumbling, electric busi- ness centers with the traffic of the nation passing through. Along with the ma- terial growth of the West came the transition of education. The simplicity of the ancient grammar and composi- tion books is scoffed at. In their stead appears the elaborate book of English principles, work manual, literature text, spelling manual, and journalism text. These too will live their lives and be- come more of the revolving wheels of progress. Central is a lucid example of this evo- lution from the past to the present. Hand in hand with the years it has sped along the road of time, each year Ending it a little farther on. Thus it has progressed: thus it will progress. U Page Sixteen

Like the fates they build up and tear down human existence and material living. Without them all civilization would have ceased ere it began. Science and knowledge are synonymous. Even the lowest form of animal has some knowl- edge, some feeling for it. The aims of the science and mathe- matics departments are not simply to teach the words and figures in the books. These perhaps are the greatest goals: the development of imagination, the teaching of intellectual integrity, and the promoting of the straight thinking which helps to make the World a place of law and order. How far could western explorers have gone if they did not know how to use a compass, how to calculate the distance traveled, how to build a house that would stand erect, how to treat a wound, or how to put a rim on a wooden wheel? They didnyt know all the fine theories that applied, but they did know their science and mathematics. Today science makes us her slave. Each daily process is her contribution. No longer can we neglect her. Page Eighteen
