z The most important single element in the growth of any product is the sower. Almost invariably the planter is responsible for the results in a finished product. The sower gives a seed the proper protection during the first period of life. He also gives it the benefit of his years of experience in agriculture and helps it to mature rapidly in a healthful way. In a child's education his parents and teachers correspond to the sower. It is they who are responsible for his mental, moral, and spiritual development. All too often the child's teachers are blamed for a boy's failure, but seldom are they given credit if superior accomplishments are forthcoming. Athens high students are extremely lucky to have an efficient faculty. Our teachers also have that rare sense of informality which makes a school day something to be appreciated. Combine the efficient informality of the faculty with a satisfied student today and you have wonderful products— a good school, high school spirit, and at lofty position in the community. Fn.r

T E PRESENTATION OF THEME Athens High School is situated in the midst of the fertile Susquehanna River Valley where farming is the dominant industry. Since dairy farms dot most of these picturesque hills and since over half of Pennsylvania is covered with farms, our theme this year will be taken from agriculture in recognition of its many boons to us and the nation as a whole. Corn is one of the most important products of the nation's farms! From its stalks ensilage, which is fed to cattle through the long winter months, is made. The ears of field corn are used to feed other domestic animals such as the chicken and the pig. Sweet corn is probably the most popular of the garden vegetables when served in many different ways—creamed, as a constituent of bread, soup, syrups, grits or fritters, or piping hot on the cob, smothered in butter. With these thoughts of agriculture in mind the Athenian has been divided into several sections depicting the life of a field of corn. The students of the Athens schools portray as it progresses from the seed to the shoot and on to maturity as the tasseled ear. This cast is ably supported by the faculty, the administration, and generous tradesmen of the community. The activities of the year will be found in various sections and they will be highlighted by the junior and senior plays, the minstrel, and commencement. The senior class conveys to you, the Athenian's reading audience, its most sincere hopes for much pleasure in this year and in years to come as you pause to leaf the pages of this, the record of our last year at Athens High. 9
