O SCHOLARSHIP UIJGING from the activities portrayed in this hook and from an inspection of the school at times, one might reach the conclusion that the attainment of scholar- ship is a very minor purpose of the school. As a matter of fact, all activities revolve about the central activity of schoIarship-getting. 'I'he purpose of any school is to pro- duce scholarly, cultured citizens. Yvhat is sometimes con- sidered the grind of daily classroom work is the heart of the scheme and the hope of the future. Therefore, in this school we give recognition to scholarship attainments in two organizations. Lizcuox or HONOR. Any student whose semester marks are all If or better is automatically a member of the Legion, receives a hutton and has his name in the case in the VVil- Iiam Rainey Harper Scholarship Shrine across from the Office. The name remains there throughout the semester following the achievement. HONOR SOCIETY' Blemhership in the Honor Society is limited to SA, -IB and 4A students. There are two ref quirements: I-The average mark in the major suhjects must he 2.5. The valuation of the marks heing as follows: S--Ig lf-33 G-25 .F-1. 2-The student must have earned at least ten honor points through leadership, services or extraordi- nary scholarship. Our Honor Society is afliliated with the National Honor Society. QARTI-IUR 6. DEAVER P RIN CIP A L Page Tlzirlrfn

I THE HARPER FACULTY ARPIQR High School, which first came in- to existence in September, 1933, has Z1 cor- respondingly young faculty, with great loyalty and enthusiasm for the new school, believing firmly in its future and that of the students. In all of our constructive and CllCCI'flll undertakings, we are led by o11r principal, llr. Arthur G. Deaver, a scholarly, friendly, perennially young man, who easily out-distances most of 11s in his ability to meet life's tasks yyith a smile! l11 the first year of Olll' experience our faculty numbered sixty-one, of yrhom thirty-two are still with us this year. Thirty-three new teach- ers have been added, and we take pride in the long list of names of tl1ose now o11 the waiting list for transfer to this school. One evidence of the enthusiasm of our teach- ers is their willingness to sponsor the thirty clubs and thirty-two committees and other activ- KA!! ities, which make for the welfare of the school, each supported by at least one teacher. Another enthusiasm is for our own profession- al standing, and is testified to hy the great num- ber who are pursuing advanced studies in the various colleges and universities of the com- munity. VVe are a congenial, social group, and We get together once eyery semester for the sl1ee1' de- light of enjoying each other's company. ln llecemher we met at dinner at the Chicago VVoman's Club, and at the time of going to press a Klay party is announced which is still shrouded in mystery. YVe know only that there will he a treasure hunt over a far flung front to be followed by a dinner party. An ambitious and happy faculty, we salute you! fron!
