VISION Visions of our goals are necessary to real progress and satisfaction. I believe that more and more our student body and faculty are setting up goals of high ideals and achievement. We are gradually drawing away from the inferior complex and are substituting therefore the success goal. Our scholarship has shown marked improvement. We have had considerable success in music, athletics, dramatics, and have shown improvement in forensics. We are building tradition. If we can cooperate and achieve success in school life, we have done much toward becoming worthwhile citizens in adult life. We must have vision and a will to reach our goals. We may falter, but we will not surrender to defeat. illiam Herbert Carruth has expressed a true and happy philosophy of life in his poem entitled “Dreamer of Dreams.” We are all of us dreamers of dreams, On visions our childhood is fed; And the heart of the child is unhaunted, it seems, By the ghosts of dreams that are dead. From childhood to youth’s but a span, And the years of our life are soon sped; But the youth is no longer a youth, but a man, hen the first of his dreams is dead. Tis a cup of wormwood and gall, When the doom of a great dream is said; And the best of a man is under the pall, When the best of his dream is dead. He may live on by compact and plan. When the fine bloom of living is shed; But God pity the little that's left of a man W hen the last of his dreams is dead. Let him show a brave face if he can, Let him woo fame or fortune instead— N et there's not much to do but to bury a man When the last of his dreams is dead. —EDWARD P. ROCK 11
