ecrion? on zua ents tc CLAVTOX H. 1 l.Lk)TT Priuc lhil As time marches on it is only natural for people to look for changes in habits, attitudes, and ideals of high school pupils. But is there much actual change? An optimistic defender of modern youth says, Well, our pupils are not angels but they don ' t tear things upside down now with school-color lights as we used to do. Then the skeptic counters with the annoying Oh, no? and relates, Why just the other day I saw — and then adds, And didn ' t you hear about that — ? And so the argument continues, apparently never won. Each side can offer convincing proof. Perhaps high school pupils can be compared to a violin string. The whole string vibrates — extreme in each direction, and is easily visible. This is like the best and worst pupils — quickly observed by the public but relatively few in number. The string also has numerous, smaller, overtone vibrations which give quality to the sound. These represent the great mass of ordinar) ' pupils, balancing the ex- treme types and giving the school quality and stability. The vibrations of a string are controlled by the violinist and the sounding board. Teachers are violinists and the community is the sounding board. The tone quality of pupils changes as the others change. The responsibility is a challenge to all. —CLAYTON H. ELLIOTT. Mr. Elliott might be said to live a life of service — never refusing to help students. Dean Rose is it right now, probably getting some agricul- ture instruction. Pcl ' ' C SClCIl NMBSaH

Practically all of these young people are either in col- lege or are regularly employed, most of them in An- gola or vicinity. When we add to these 417 the hun- dreds of young people previously graduated since 1877 we see what a large proportion of the work of the community is being done by alumni of our high school. Much of this work is prosaic, but none the less useful and worthy of respect. Not only do our alumni fur- nish the backbone of the community but many have gone out into Lu ' ger fields of en- deavor than could be furnished by the home community, and of these also we are proud. Following are a few who have won special distinction: Willis Uhl, 1902 — Dean of the School of Education, University of Washington, Seattle. Author of educational books. Charles Honess, 1908 — Member of the U. S. Coast and Geodetic Survey. Scien- tist and writer. Florence Parsell, 1909 — Teacher of Art in Grand Rapids Public Schools. Artist and illustrator. Arthur Honess, 1909 — Scientist. Decorated by the French Academy of Science for research in crystallization. Lynn Elston, 1910 — Surgeon, chief of statf, Lutheran Hospital, Fort Wayne, Ind. David Palfreyman, 1912. Moving picture executive. New York City. Assistant to ' Will Hayes. Gaylord Metzgar, 1916 — Executive General Motors, Body Department. Henry Waller, 1926 — Professor at George Washington University, awarded Ph.D. on original research in biology. — JOHN L. ESTRICH. Mr. Estrich always is willing to take his work with a smile. Max Tucker is having real pleasure getting a few tips on today ' s physics lesson. Page six
