CHILD protected by PARENT and guided by TEACHER flings his challenge to the world. The child links home and school, parents and teachers. Youth is the very keynote, the fundamental of life, no existence is complete without it. It fur- nishes that extra enthusiasm and energy which quickens the step of maturity. It radiates that contagious happiness and joy which can be supplied only by Youth. Thus it is with pride thatYouth marches on bearing on high its motto, For- ward. It embodies the spirit, it bears the ideals, it carries the future of our nation, young in years, on to political, economical, and industrial supremacy. Youth may falter on a steep incline, but never will it stop. It may creep on ever so slowly, but never- theless it is moving towards its goal. The pageant of youth is in progress. All hail to king Youth!

Guided by men of dauntless courage and high ideals, the long procession overcomes obstacles and rejoices in victories. Co-operation seems necessary for the success of everything.
