Actually they know what is best for each child, but it is rarely that the young admit it. They are con- stantly making sacrifices so our school lite might be complete, both in scholastic and extra-curricular activities. Ruth E. Brown, B.S.

O.F.A. Principa ir Kenneth A. Vance, The Old and the New We are planning to move into a new high school before another year begins. Students, as well as faculty, are looking forward to this transition. Edu- cationally there will be many changes and im- provements over our present situation. We shall find ourselves in larger and more pleasant sur- roundings with rooms equipped with more modern facilities, an auditorium of which we shall be ex- ceptionally proud, and a gymnasium with sliding doors so it can be used by boys and girls at the same time. These are but a few of the improve- ments and changes. However, let me advise you no matter how great the improvement in building structure is, scholarship will not improve on your part unless you take advantage of the opportu- nities provided. ln moving from the old to the new, let us not stay as we are, but let all of us improve, too. This is an opportunity, don't pass it by. Success is not determined by our surroundings, it is merely a factor. B.S., Eol.M. ir Mrs. Irene Harders, always ready to give help from the office, assists Literary Editor Vickie Bing- ham locate a student schedule card.
