VVe see that even the animals were led by the strongest and most intelli- gent of their species. As we pass on from century to century, we find organi- zation becoming more selective as, for instance, in the 10th century, not only strength was an essential factor, but money and social position were standing side by side as bulwarks of government, in other words, of organization. So it went on, each era adding some more or less important qualification until today, we con- sider our system of unity not far from the best result that can be achieved by human beings. As we all know, the secret lies in a direct representation of the people who are to be ruled. Of course, we cannot all be office-holders-some of us do not choose to be and most of us arenot qualified to be-and therefore we call on cer- tain people, who we know are reliable and capable, to act as our representatives. The last semester has been one of outstanding achievements in Textile activity. Clubs, teams, and school events on the whole have thrived surprisingly well, but undoubtedly the one outstanding success of the term has been that of our General Organization. This organization, despite the many' stupendous problems with which it was confronted, successfully completed one of the most beneficial admin- istrations in the entire history of the Textile General Organization. No doubt the field over which the G. O. has exerted the most influence is that of athletics. In this work it has proven itself an efficient backer of all our teams, notably, football and basketball. A notable instance of its backing was displayed in the support given to the football team for the game with Commerce at the Yan- kee Stadium on last Election Day. The game was made an enormous success due to the contribution of the G. O. to the expenses of advertising and other 'fbuild up necessary in making this game a real event. The General Organization also proved successful in another large field of en- dcavor,'namely the social field, for who can forget the wonderful party which the G. O. sponsored in the Fortieth Street Annex? The dance which was given at the Forty-second Street Annex proved itself the social event of the year due to the inexhaustable efforts of the faithful committee. A further resume of the General Organizationis activities would be in vain for after all, who does not know of the real benefits accrued from this term's G. O. administration P In the future let us hope that we may again see as competent and as hard working a G. O. as we have seen in this past term which will undoubtedly go down on record as one of the most successful semesters in the entire history of our school. H l 1 , ,fr t .

VVhen one has acquired that ability, then one is prepared to meet the battles that present themselves in Life. The High School is usually to the majority of boys and girls, the last stepping- stone in the history of their school-days. The High School is very much like every- day life in the Business VVorld. Tasks are set before the students and each task must be perfected before another can be assumed. It may be likened to the rungs of a ladder. You can not climb to the next stage unless the foundation under your feet is strongly built. If one rung is badly fastened, the rest may topple. The orchestra is a laboratory for the polishing touches of th High School student. It is there that his real ability and character have the opportunity to display themselves. The orchestra is one of the outstanding representatives of the school. It is our party-dress. VVe use it to show-off. At present the orchestra is busy preparing for a concert to be broadcast over the radio. Meetings are held every Monday and Thursday in the seventh period at the Forty-second Street Building under the able supervision of the Chairman of the Music Department, Miss Bowen, who has worked diligently to keep the orchestra together. We are under the very difficult handicap of a school dividedinto iivc separate buildings, which renders our task a double one-namely, bringing the stu- dents together, and accomplishing the work of the orchestra proper. VVe are looking forward to the day when our labors will be self-rewarded. THE TEXTILIAN For many terms our school paper has prospered in each annex. The ex- tremely inconvenient manner in which the students of so large a school are scat- tered in the several buildings makes it very difficult to establish a paper that will interest everyone. But despite all obstacles Textile has done this. ' The news of each annex is, with the aid of the Textiliari, given to the other buildings, thereby establishing a link joining them together. The activities of the many clubs, which are recorded, give the students the opportunity of discovering activities which appeal to them. The entertainments and other events provide subjects for discussion and create an interest in school life. News of sporting results also increase the popularity of the paper. Jokes, rhymes, and little remarks add humor to it. The success which the Textilian has always met seems to be continuing. The cooperation of students and editors will help to make it even better than before. VVith M1's. Di Stasi at the helm, the Textilian must be good. y6m umm,,mEn1mIumm3nmm,mmln1mmmmmmm, E mmmmimimnnumrminnmmmnmmummuminnnnmnmimimmnmxmnmmmrnnmnnlliuuunmnmmi3 E681 5
