The name Promethean was chosen for this chapter. The purpose of this organization is to encourage the stu- dent to live up to the highest ideals throughout his high school career, and to serve as a worthy goal for which one should strive, because membership in the National Honor Society is the highest honor that the school can bestow upon any of its graduates. The members of this society are chosen on a basis of scholarship, leadership, character, and service. A student's ability to perform the tasks that are assigned to him, his conduct throughout his four years in high school, his ability to live up to high ideals and to en- courage others to do so, and also the things that he has done to keep up the standard of South Side-all these are taken into consideration in selecting those grad- uates who are worthy of such recognition. The students are elected to the Promethean chapter by a committee composed of five members of the fac- ulty. The teachers who acted on this committee this year are Herman O. Makey, chairman, Miss Milocent H. Work, Herbert S. Voorhees, Earl Murch, and Miss Mabel Thorne. They are privileged to select fifteen percent of the graduating class for membership, al- though they art not obliged to select this number. On December 17, 1928, ten graduates of the Feb- ruary class became the charter members of the Prome- thean chapter. A student assembly was held in the gym- nasium for the purpose of presenting the memberships. At this time Mr. Makey introduced Mr. Louis C.-Ward, superintendent of schools, who was the principal speaker. The subject of Mr. VVard,s talk was The Three Men. He spoke of three types of people, the semi-skilled work- men, the skilled workmen, and the managers of men. He stated that it dependson the education one has re- ceived as to what class one will belong after leaving high school, and that it is the duty of every high school student to strive to do what he can do best to the best of his ability and to become a leader of men. Mr. Ward also stressed the fact that one must not forget the importance of scholarship in relation to social activi- ties, and that there are other things in school life besides sports and dances. After the address Mr. Makey explained the qualifications of members of the Honor Society and displayed the replica of the pin. These pins are somewhat like those of the Phi Beta Kappa, hon- orary fraternity in universities and bear the letters S. L. C. and S., which stand for the four qualifica- Nmoua , ' Hom: um - gui.
