ll I' i nc i il Free people need to know how to compete with each other successfully in business, industry or professions in order to earn a living. They must also know how to co-operate with one another in community activities to be successful contributing citizens. Students learn individual skills through study and practice. They learn the social skills of how to co-operate with one another, also through practice in group activities such as this publication effort. We hope that the Arcola School System and community has given you sufficient training in both, so that you can com- pete successfully in earning your livelihood and co-operate successfully with your fellow human beings as contributing members of our free democratic society. Your future success in both areas will be a measure of our success as your teachers. Congratulations to the Torch Staff and sponsor on your fine production. M Thomas M.
