DR. HENRY E. HARTIG Dedication In a world in which education plays an increasingly important part, what civic enterprise could be more valuable to a community than the erection of a modern school? Education, which a philosopher has termed man's greatest armor, took an upward turn when the school board, backed by an enthusiastic clan of townspeople, voted in the proposed project. It was declared that a new high school would bring opportunity to the doorstep of many students who would otherwise be deprived of the chance to continue their studies. Adequate facilities for furthering laboratory and project courses, in addition to the housing of the standbys of readin', writin', and ’rithmetic , would help to round out the educational program. To you. the School Board of Robbinsdale, we dedicate this book. We feel that you are most worthy of such a tribute, and hope you will understand the gratitude with which we make use of everything which has been provided for us. Thank you for everything—a beautiful building, large well-equipped rooms, recreational centers, dramatic, vocational, and sports facilities, and a spacious auditorium. We appreciate your efforts.
