LEADER E. E. HANSELMAN HCUW OFTEN one hears the expression, I could have done that if I had had the chance. Whitt the individual means is that had he had the opporf tunity for growth and development and had he taken advantage of it, he would he doing a lietter joh of living than he is now doing. Whcri a group of freshmen met a small group of teachers in Septemher 1920, Garfield hesfan its work. Opportunities existed and those freshmen wanted to do things. By taking pride in their work and with a determinf ation to succeed, they overcame many ohstacles, and in so doing profited each in his or her own way. Growth and development resulted. As the school grew in size, more prohlems arose and had to he solved. No matter how complex the task appeared, each succeeding class has assumed its share in the work to he done and therehy each individual has profited in his or her own way, This is growth and development. Guidance, suhject matter, and experience gained through participation in activities, each makes its contrihution in the growth of the individual. Youth, parents and teachers make this possihle at Garfield. E. E. HANsELMaNnsPvim-ipal.
