THE GROWTH QF A STUDENT The growth of a student may perhaps be compared to the complete metamorphosis of the butterfly. Just as the butterfly completes four phases of development---the egg, larval, pupal, and adult, sothe student completes four phases---the Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, and Senior. The egg, or embryonic stage of life in the butterfly, is the immature beginning of the adult, as the Freshman is the beginning of the Senior. The embryo progresses to the larval stage--more advanced, rather the in- between. Thus is the Sophomore-a little closerto the Senior, and also the in-between. The pupal stage of the butterfly produces an organism greatly akin to the adult. The Junior, in his role as next-to-Senior, develops many characteristics which identify him with the more advanced segment of the student body, and bring him closer to the status of Senior. Finally, the pupa's enclosure breaks, and the adult emerges. Similarly, the waiting ends, the Junior returns to school as a Senior- the achievement and reward! Here the comparison ends, for the future holds only death for the adult butterfly. For the high school Senior, the future holds his hopes and dreams, his ambitions and goals. His possibilities are unlimited, his success is his own responsibility. He may use his life inahundred-thousandways, unlike the butter- fly, which has only to die, without great accomplishments. The student may use his life, and our advice to you is, Do use it--the fate of civilization may rest in your hands. Editor's Note: The photograph of the oil painting used on this page is by Pat Renfrew, a graduate of Jacksonville High. She called it Cross Section of Student Life .
