Cayfor Gfffderdice gfiqlz Selma! This year Taylor Allderdice High School celebrates its twentieth anniver- sary. Though a mere infant in the realm of education-its door having been first opened in February, l927--Taylor Allderdice has rapidly developed into maturity and taken her place among the outstanding public high schools of the nation, For twenty years, Taylor Allderdice has stood as a symbol of all that is America, for twenty years it has served the communityg with malice toward none for twenty years it has furthered the ideals of justice, equality, fraternityg for twenty years it has diffused knowledge, instilled wisdom, molded characterg for twenty years it has shown like a beacon, its rays of knowledge illuminating the paths of all who enter its portals, its beams of enlightenment penetrating the foreboding veil of ignorance and intoleranceg for twenty years it has stimu- lated and inspired its disciples to know something-do something-be something. After passing through two decades of want and fear, suffering and death, greed and bigotry, lust and war. Taylor Allderdice now is playing the most im- portant role of its career-that of welding and forging men and women zealous for a world at peace, of educating and molding men and women capable of assuming their places and recognizing their responsibilities in an atmosphere immune from and repugnant to a world at war. It was once stated by the Greek philosopher Diogenes that, The founda- tion of every state is the education of its youth. On its twentieth anniversary. in an era when man can conceivably eliminate himself and all of the develop- ments of civilization from the very genesis of life, Taylor Allderdice now must realize that-the foundation of the 'world is the education of its youth. 6 M.
