The Spirit of Bay View HROUGHOUT THE AGES, the civilizations of various nations have been determined by a certain guiding spirit which they had established as their ideal and which in turn shaped their destinies. Very early in the history of mankind certain standards of individual and community conduct tending toward loftier purposes became established codes for living. In the course of time, we note a transition from a regard for the material to a concern for the spiritual. As this veneration for the latter grew, it assumed the form of worship. The ancient oriental peoples turned to a nature and idol worship. By the time the Tribes of Israel appeared on the scene, the existence of an Almighty Spirit, which controlled the destinies of men, had already become recognized. The Greeks and Romans, though heathen in our sense of the term, fostered the ideal of the good and the beautiful. With the dawn of the Christian era we find a new ideal implanted in the hearts of men: ULove thy neighbor as thyself . VVe call it Altruism , the attitude of brotherly love toward our fellow-men. It became the watchword of Christianity. As the carrier of this ideal, Christianity hand in hand with our civilization, through the past two thousand years, has carried its standard to the remote corners of the earth. One of the many modern manifestations of this teaching is education, education for service. It begins with early youth and continues throughout the span of life. NVhat we have of civilization today, all our achievements and attainments, is directly traceable to the wonderful deeds of the pioneers, who were responsible for the spread of Christianity throughout the world of their time, and subsequently throughout the whole world of today. We can hardly realize and appreciate the tremendous power and influence of present- day education. And so, in our own limited sphere of the Bay View High School, this same force of education is wielding its power for the improvement of mankind. As so beautifully pictured in our new mural decoration, presented by the Class of 1926, she is offering to our youth the opportunity to gain knowledge, for knowledge is power. The power sought is not for self-aggrandizement, but is for the purpose of increasing our ability to acquire still further attainment, which we in turn can develop and turn to the greater and loftier purpose of serving our fellow-men. Then indeed shall we become the standard-bearers of that altruism, for which America already stands foremost among the nations of the earth. May it be the aim of every student in the Bay View High School to acquire as much true education as possible, and throughout life to convert it into a force for the promotion of the welfare of humanity. May that be the guiding spirit that animates us during our presence in this school, as well as upon our journey through life. Jef? Page Thirty
