This is particularly true in the upper years of the high school, and Austin is no exception. It is especially encouraging in such times to see the enthusiasm and spirit with which Austin High School boys and girls are working in the classrooms, on the athletic field, in the auditorium, and in other school activities. No sounder investment of a young person's time can be made now than to invest it in school training, just as wholeheartedly as one is able. Lincoln said I will study and get ready, and perhaps my chance will come. Keep on preparing, Austin High School boys and girls. Your chance will come. P. B. JACOBSON, Principal Page eleven
