HIRSCH Superintendent of Schools 19-WAHISCAN-38 Dear Students: Congratulations upon the successful comple- tion of another school year and the publication of one more in the long line of excellent Wahiscans. ln the years to come you will fre- quently turn these pages and memory will carry you back to your high school days. A vivid cross section of high school life is con- tained herein and the memories evoked When you open this book will sometimes be merry and sometimes be tinged with sadness. Today you are eagerly facing the future and each of you hopes to make a fine success in life. Suc- cess does not lie solely in the accumulation of Wealth but in a life of service, characterized by honesty, courage, sincerity and steadfast- ness of purpose. You will all make mistakes but you do not have to respond to encores. Remember, the man who holds down the ladder at the bottom is frequently of just as much serv- ice as the man at the top.

Dear Students: One of our oldest institutions is the American public school. The history of this institution parallels the growth and development of our national civilization. Enrollment in the modern high school is, indeed, a true cross section of American society. Regardless of race, creed, or color, the American student is entitled to receive secondary education at public expense. The growth of this institution during the past few years indicates the desire on the part of our citizens to give advanced training beyond the elementary school to the youth of the land. This is deemed necessary if democracy is to succeed. To a large extent the future leader- ship of the world rests with this country. There- fore, it is imperative that we provide good leadership in order that the turbidity of world affairs may be alleviated and world peace made possible. This constitutes a real chal- lenge to those young men and women now in our high school. Sincerely yours, G. W. BANNERMAN Principal G. W. BANNERMAN Principal SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL P. T. A.
