25 AbINGTON HIGH SCHOOL has consistently educated the June Class of 1936, as all its other classes, to develop a scientific attitude; that is, to take all facts, judge them impartially, weigh them, and give an unbiased opinion. Abington desires its graduates to become participating members in the community; to take an active interest in all problems of government; above all, to become good citizens. These outcomes are implied in Mr. Messinger’s counsel: “Be good Alumni.” ♦ May 1 stress the values of the traditions Abington has given us? lopping the list of these traditions is the driving desire to carry on—never to quit. In all Abington activities, we have been led to look up—never down. In life, this wdill be a great task. No matter how great the problem, how momentous the decision, we can always find strength, hope, and confidence by looking up. I p! Perhaps past that last cover of leaves, up to those great white fluffy bison charging across that field of blue, up to God. He is there. His hand is forever ready to ease the burdens in our hearts. As the doors of Abington close behind us for the last time, we must always remember to look up. Merl Sciieffey THE CLASS SPONSOR THE CLASS PRESIDENT YEARBOOK
