MR. V. E. KLONTZ, Superintendent American fathers and mothers, in general hold as an ideal the proposition that schools offering instruction to meet the needs and interests of all boys and girls shall be provided at public expense. Greater numbers of pupils from the elementary schools are completing the work of the senior high schools. Statistics tell Aus that enrollments in high schools have increased from 100,000 in 1880 to more than 5,500,000 in 1936, The citizens of Janesville have provided a modern school system with all its advantages. As you participate in the opportunities oiferecl, you should consider your obligation to those who are in- terested in you. I believe you will agree with me that those who pay the increasing costs have a right to expect at least two things of you. In the first place, you should consider education as a life process. The schooling which iiiii i J . . .A3 you are now receiving marks only the beginning of your education. If you fail to continue this growth by means of reading and problem solving after you graduate, you Lyzp 4 3 ' are not doing that which is expected of you. In the second place, you should keep uppermost in your mind the needs of society and, at all times, give your best to the com- ee i 3 munity, state, and nation in which you live. If each of us contribute our full share as we go along, - -.-i stt. -f we will hnd much happiness in life. ii Lf. V. E. KLONTZ. A JOYCE ANNE AND JAMES RUSH KLoNTz Page Twelve
