1933 Av EMORIAL HIGH SCHOOL 193 3 Class Oration: School Spirit By Myron B. Thomas I am sorrj as I think of leaving- this Class of 1933. For the last four years ve have been like a family of children in good Old INIe- morial High School. So I, like many of you. regret this parting because of the pleasure and happiness we have experienced here to- gether. To the Class of 1933. I wish all possible hick and happiness in the years to come. Speaking of school and school life, I have chosen as my topic today : school spirit. What is .school spirit ? It is the exhibition of loyalty on the part of students for the in.stitution they represent. In explanation, all too often a student fails to derive all possible benefits from his schoo ' . As a freshman, he will say, Well, here is where I spend my next four years in jail. He makes up his mind that the teachers and principal are his natural sworn enemies, that the athletic teams are means of tiring him out, that ticket selling campaigns take away all his leisure time, that all extra-curricida activities Avere merely invented to torment him. So, he does not co-operate with the teachers ; he fails to attend the athletic games ; he will not sell tickets ; all becau.se he believes he is getting revenge for having an educa- tion forced upon him. And if this type of student was in the majority what kind of a school would we have? Because isn ' t school, after all, what we make it ? As I haA e said before, School Spirit starts with the individual. So ask yourself this little question : What kind of a .school would my school be if cA ' ery student were just like me? In college, the students speak lovinglj of their halls of learning as Alma Mater. In early youth or high school days, perhaps we do not come to the realization of what school means until we must leave it, or it is taken from us. Have you ever thought that the basis of School Spirit is loyalty. And what is the basis of loyalty? It is love and appreciation for Avhat we have. So, give your school a boost. Speak well of it, do Avhat you can to help it and the benefits will come back to you a thousand fold. Sup- port our athletic teams, be loyal to the coach, stand back of every good project undertaken here for mutual benefit. Finally, try to be appreciative of whatever is done for you. How do outsiders form an impression of our school It is from us, of cour.se. Fir.st from what we have to say of our school, and secondly, but not less in importance, the man- ner in which Ave stand back of its actiAaties. So, landerclassmen, try to profit by these words of Avisdom. Perhaps the class of 1933 didn ' t folloAv this advice ahvays. But on this momentous day Ave haA ' e come to realize things Ave ncA ' er kncAv before. Thus it is Avith aU classes and all people. This is my goodby message to you all. Noav as the years go by Memorial High school Avill mean more and more to you, and you Avill look back to the hours spent here as the happiest of your life. So give our school your undivided and never to be questioned love and loyalty. I thank you. -4 30 h '
