We become attached to certain routine and always resist any break unless that routine is definitelyindispensable to the people involved. Whenever a routine is better than the old one all of us readily make the change. lt has always been our policy at Crane to make few changes at a time, and then only when assured that it is for the good of all the students at Crane. Educational procedures must grow, therefore, changes must neces- sarily come. A changeless thing is dead. The teachers who know when and howto make desirable change in methods are progressive. The students who can and will deviate from an old to a newer and better routine are those who will make marks for themselves. What are some of the improvements or changes which have been made at Crane in the last couple of years? A greater emphasis on scholarship is laudable for any student in the high school. Each class at Crane is a unit in the encouragement of better scholarship. I com- mend the adviser, officers, and commissioners of each class for their excellent work toward better scholarship. Most of the shop teachers are making valuable changes in methods of procedure. Our journalism classes have done very excellent work in the newspaper project under the direction of their adviser and teacher. A Individual instruction should be further studied and be extended in all departments of the school. Some excellent work along this line is being done in mathematics, social science, mechanical drawing, and shops. I commend the teachers who have studied for better methods. Let this good work continue. By discussing the customs, the people, and the country the language department has given new life to the study of languages. Under Mayor Propp and Mayor Kraft the student government has done very excellent work. We must not look for new and striking achievement in our student government but keep what we have and do our work well, even though it may not shine as a bright star. We live in a democracy. Let us practice that form of government at Crane in a quiet and efficent manner. Many changes will come, old things will go, new things will come. Let us do our best for a greater and better Crane.

RITCHEY IN MEMORIAIVI Samuel Edward Ritchey came to teach at Crane in November l89l, when it was still called the English High and Manual Training School. Mr. Ritchey retired in June l935, after 44 years of continuous service and successful teaching. He died in Sep- tember l937, leaving behind him thousands of former students who will ever bear witness to his superb craftsmanship in the manual arts. Mr. Ritchey was also remembered by countless instructors for his in- teresting and illuminating text books on the wood working crafts. Page Eleven
