ATHENS C. H. S. THE PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE Greetings to the Class of 1937. Carry on the traditions and training of Athens High School. Let your futures reflect and ever maintain the virtues symbolized by the Athen- ian Sun whose colors you have so creditably represented for the past four years. Your problems of today are neither new nor different. They are the age-old problems of learning to live with yourselves and other people, of finding the place in life when each can do something for others as well as for himself. The education that answers best to all the calls of life must respond to the demands of the spirit as well as to the body and mind. Science and research do not circumscribe our lives, nor can they be interpreted in economic terms alone. Nations die when their ideals wear out, hen their spirits weaken and die, when the hearts of their people no longer sing. Your lives are not determined by circumstances or the acts of others. Worthwhile or selfish, life is what you make it as you work and play. So, make the most of work or play, for it is a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage”. Be Athenians forever! —J. O. AUSTIN. 13]
